Chapter 409: Abandoned Mining Area (2/2)

Mo Wuji had displayed his ability and capability; since Jia Qi wanted to work with Mo Wuji, she naturally did not reject him. Moreover, it was still a few days time before the next allocation of mining areas.

…

Six hours later, Mo Wuji and Jia Qi stopped. In front of them, was a stretch of black land. The only difference was, there seemed to be faint traces of red soil within this black land.

”This is Mining Area 6A?” Mo Wuji looked at the black soil in front of him, it really looked like the entire area had been flipped over.

Jia Qi answered, ”Yes, Mining Area A has the best mining areas, and the smaller the number, the closer they are to the blackstone ores. Mining Area 6A was once the best mining area in Half Immortal Domain.

Mo Wuji entered the mining area and scanned outwards with his spiritual wil. He confirmed that there was no other person in the surroundings.

His spirit storage channel’s spiritual will had already entered into the black soil beneath him. In half an incense’s time, Mo Wuji discovered the first blackstone. However, this blackstone was roughly 15 meters into the ground so Mo Wuji did not tell Jia Qi.

For this single blackstone that was so deep under, he really wasn’t interested in excavating it.

Jia Qi followed behind Mo Wuji, she didn't even bother using her spiritual will to search for blackstone. For a place which had been thoroughly excavated before, she wouldn’t do such a useless action. After Mo Wuji knew that this place was indeed unsuitable for excavation, she would discuss with Mo Wuji their plans for three days later.

Mo Wuji’s pace was not fast, nor was it slow. Just like that, two hours passed.

This place really deserved to be called Mining Area A. In this short period of time, he already found 17 blackstones. Back when he was in Mining Area F, he didn’t find such dense amounts of blackstone.

What left Mo Wuji disappointed was that these 17 blackstones were not what he wanted. The most shallow ones were at least 9 meters down. He felt that this was not worth it; to just dig like this would be a waste of effort. Mo Wuji wanted to find a dense cluster of blackstone, that would save time.

”Dao Friend Mo, even if you search for another few days, the results would be the same. This place has already been thoroughly excavated, it’s hard to find any more new blackstones…”

Seemingly feeling Mo Wuji’s disappointment, Jia Qi advised by the side.

Just when Mo Wuji was about to explain that he had already found blackstone, just that there were very scattered, he noticed blackstones in a snowflake like arrangement. After roughly counting it, there were actually 30 of them, and they were not deep, around 12 to 15 meters.

”Let’s start digging here,” After Mo Wuji locked into the 30 blackstones with his spiritual will, he pointed to the ground.

”Ah…” Jia Qi stared at Mo Wuji doubtfully. This place had been dug before, you want to dig it again?

Mo Wuji did not explain but he had already taken out his Blackstone Shovel and started digging. With the bolstering of his elemental energy, the Blackstone Shovel was actually must more effective that his Tian Ji Pole and spear. In a single scoop, he was able to dig up 30 centimeters of black soil, and he didn't even need to use the support of any skills.

Seeing Mo Wuji start digging, Jia Qi could only follow suit and dig behind Mo Wuji.

With Jia Qi’s first shovel, Mo Wuji knew that in terms of digging the black soil, Jia Qi was much stronger than him. He could only reach a depth of 30 centimeters at each time, while Jia Qi could reach 60 centimeters.

The lower they went, the harder the blacksoil. Jia Qi was very experienced, she would choose the most suitable spot to shovel. Mo Wuji followed behind her, saving a lot of effort and time.

Not bad, this partnership was still okay.

Previously, Mo Wuji took one day to reach 9 meters. But now, with Jia Qi, they merely took 2 hours to reach 9 meters. Not only that, the energy Mo Wuji used was much lesser.

”Dao Friend Mo, digging on would be a waste…” When they reached 9 meters, Jia Qi could not hold it in and say.

This could be her first time digging aimlessly.

Mo Wuji continued to dig as he said, ”Don’t worry. By the time you reach 15 meters, you will see the results.”

”15 meters?” Jia Qi’s hand started to tremble. In the entire Half Immortal Domain, those whose spiritual will could reach 6 meters into the ground could already be considered an expert. If they could reach 9 meters, they would be one of the best excavators here. Those people don’t even need to dig personally, they just needed to move their lips and they would get large piles of blackstone. There was only one expert, that could reach 10.5 meters into the ground with his spiritual will, and he couldn’t hold it for long.

Mo Wuji said 15 meters? Was he scamming her or was this bullsh*t?
