Mortals: Take Mo Juren at the start

Chapter 856: Xuanyu Cave and Separate Actions

"Below this altar is the legendary Black Jade Cave. According to records, it contains a whole vein of Black Jade ore that is tens of thousands of years old..."

Speaking of this, not only Master Hanli, but everyone around him could not hide their shock.

That is a thousand-year-old black jade, which is almost extinct outside. You don't need too much of it. Just a fist-sized piece is needed to mix into the magic weapon, and it can immediately give the treasure the power of ice.

This is absolutely a top-level spiritual material that is hard to come by, but there is a whole vein of minerals here, which was even refined into a cave by ancient monks using their great magical powers.

Simply incredible!

This is enough to show the profound heritage of Xiaoji Palace.

Mo Juren was also a little excited when he heard about the Ten Thousand Year Black Jade.

He was extremely wealthy, and his network of contacts spanned several continents, but after all his efforts over the years, he had only been able to refine eight ten-thousand-year-old black jade flying swords.

This is indeed a bit shabby.

However, here, the ten thousand year old black jade was readily available, and there was even so much of it that it could not be used up. Moreover, its age was several times stronger than those of his that were barely ten thousand years old.

There was such a huge difference that he suddenly didn't know what to say.

Just as he was thinking this, Master Hanli had already started to act again.

He strode straight to the front of the altar and raised his hands. With a flash of blue light, the dry blue ice flame was released directly and wrapped around his two palms.

As his five fingers shook, they seemed to be performing some unknown magic formula, and then they were pressed directly onto the light curtain.

Suddenly, blue flames and blue light intertwined and flickered, and the entire altar light curtain began to tremble slightly.

Suddenly, a blinding light lit up, and with a crisp "bang" sound, the entire light curtain began to shatter like crystal, with Master Hanli's hands as the center, and turned into nothingness in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this scene, a satisfied smile suddenly appeared on Master Hanli's face. Then he appeared on the altar in a flash, and looked around carefully.

The rest of the people also flashed over and found that it was very spacious. In the central area there was a strange magic circle with a giant tripod pattern engraved in the middle.

"Xu Tian Ding!" Mo Juren and Han Li looked at each other tacitly, without showing any abnormality. However, this scene was still caught by Master Hanli out of the corner of his eye.

A hint of envy inevitably flashed across his dark eyes, but it was fleeting.

He didn't ask any more questions, and then waved his sleeves. The small blue tripod with dry blue ice flames in the cave flew out, circled once, and then just hovered above the magic circle.

At this moment, Master Hanli's expression became extremely serious. He held up a flower with one hand and shot the other hand towards the small tripod in the air.

"boom……"

With a muffled sound, the small tripod trembled slightly, and then began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.

However, in the blink of an eye, it returned to the shape of the giant cauldron in the cave before, with dry blue ice flames burning on the surface, wrapping it completely.

At the same time, Bai Mengxin and the middle-aged man in green shirts also took a step forward at the same time. As they waved their arms, a white flame and a black flame spurted out at the same time, hitting the two sides of the magic circle on the ground.

In an instant, a loud rumbling sound was heard, and spiritual lights flickered in various parts of the magic circle. Under the stimulation of the two cold flames, the giant tripod pattern in the center lit up with a dazzling blue light.

As the light grew brighter, it eventually transformed into a blue light cauldron.

Upon seeing this, Master Hanli took action immediately, and the giant tripod fell directly down and merged with the blue light tripod. With a dull loud bang, it fell straight to the ground.

Waves of ancient and obscure spells rang out, and a large amount of dry blue ice flames gushed out from the giant cauldron like a volcanic eruption, covering the entire magic circle in an instant.

The combination of the two immediately caused a chain reaction, the spiritual light became brighter and brighter, and the entire altar began to tremble violently.

Then, the magic circle began to slowly split apart with the giant tripod as the center, and a clearly visible crack emerged.

In order to avoid the Qianlan Ice Flame, everyone had already flown into the air. Looking down, they saw that the giant tripod was completely suspended in the air, and in the crack below was flashing a large patch of milky white light, which was very bright.

"The passage has been opened, let's go down. However, the cold air in the Xuanyu Cave is extremely strong, so you'd better take some precautions in advance." Master Hanli gave instructions, and then directly summoned the Qianlan Ice Flame, wrapped it around the body, and then floated straight down into the crack.

The rest of the people also used their own protective measures and jumped into the crack one after another.

As soon as they entered the crack, a large amount of milky white cold air swept in. Even though everyone took protective measures, they still felt the bone-chilling cold.

It was only then that everyone discovered that the so-called Xuanyu Cave was actually just an underground cave.

The difference is that this cave was made from an entire vein of black jade ore, and its luxury is astonishing.

I think that even in ancient times it was not something that could be done easily. Only a figure like Fairy Bingpo would be qualified and capable of doing this.

Everyone kept falling, but Han Li, who deliberately stayed at the back, was a little excited at this moment.

He raised his hand to grab the cold light around him, and with his powerful magic power, he absorbed a ray of cold light into his palm, and at the same time wrapped it with dry blue ice flame.

After a careful observation, he did not find anything special, but thinking of the reminder given by his master in advance, he immediately activated his Mingqing Lingmu.

Sure enough, he immediately noticed something unusual.

Under the gaze of the spiritual eyes, the milky white cold light actually showed a slight solid state, and even kept changing its shape under the wrapping of the ice flame, as if it had life.

The other party was not afraid of the extreme coldness of the Qianlan Ice Flame. It remained independent from beginning to end and could not blend together.

Han Li's expression remained unchanged, and a hint of red appeared again in the dry blue ice flame in his hand.

This was naturally the Taiyin True Fire that he had obtained before. It was still in its infancy and naturally had no power, but its quality and spirituality were much higher than those of the Qianlan Ice Flame.

As expected, as soon as this flame appeared, the situation immediately became different. The moment the milky white cold light appeared, the Taiyin True Fire seemed to have encountered an unparalleled delicacy and directly sucked it in as if it had swallowed it.

Seeing this, Han Li was pleasantly surprised and admired his master even more. It turned out that everything was under his control.

Thinking this in his mind, he did not hesitate. His mind moved and the Taiyin True Fire shot out instantly, disappearing in the milky white cold light in a flash.

... Not long after, everyone flew to the bottom of the cave, and there was a pile of rocks around them, which was hundreds of feet wide.

At the edge of a corner of the pile of rocks stood a fiery red stone house, and there were more than one holes on the surrounding walls, which obviously did not look like a cave.

It can be seen that this place has been mined countless times, and the surrounding rocks are all impurities left after the black jade was taken away, and they are of little value.

However, in the center of the rubble, there is still a huge natural boulder left, but it has obviously been mined countless times, resulting in its shape like an upright stone pillar.

Just above the top of the stone pillar, a large amount of milky white cold air gathered together to form a huge cold air ball with a diameter of several feet, which kept rolling above the boulder.

Compared to the surrounding piles of rocks, the black jade revealed on the surface of the huge stone pillar is obviously much better, and both the quality and quantity are incomparable.

Such a large number of ten thousand year old black jades naturally attracted the attention of almost everyone, except Master Hanli, who ignored them all and looked at the cold light ball on the top of the boulder with a look of joy.

"I didn't expect there to be a natural intersection of cold air here, gathering so much cold air, which saves me a lot of effort. Not bad, not bad."

Master Hanli laughed loudly, then suddenly raised his hand and threw a blue ice cone at the light ball.

The moment the two sides came into contact, a strange sound of metal collision was heard. The ice cone did not fly into the light ball, but shattered into pieces, and finally turned into points of cold light and disappeared.

Seeing this, Master Hanli became even happier, and then suddenly turned to look at Ye Long next to him:

"The environment here is just right, so I plan to stay here and start the Cold Flame Marrow Cleansing after some preparation. As for you, do you plan to enter the Sun Essence House to rest for a while, or go to the Xuanyin Pond immediately?"

"Forget about taking a rest. This little consumption won't be a big problem for us." Ye Long shook his head slightly and looked at Bai Xun, Liu Yunruo and Mo Juren beside him. None of the three objected.

"That's good. After all, I can't stop once I start, so I can't be of much help." Master Hanli nodded slightly, and said no more. He then called Han Li and the others to walk towards the fiery red stone house in the distance.

There were only four people left. Ye Long looked at Bai Xun and said:

“It’s only a few years away from the ten thousand year deadline. The Ice Jade Cave should be open. Brother Bai might as well try your luck. Maybe you can collect some cold marrow.

As for Ye, he will take Junior Sister Liu and Junior Brother Mo to Xuanyin Pond to collect spiritual herbs and materials, and then return here to gather at the end. "

"That's fine. Just be careful." Bai Xun nodded, then turned into a ray of white light and flew towards a hole in the distant wall, entered it and disappeared.

Upon learning that Bai Xun went to collect the cold marrow first, Mo Juren's eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't say much.

At this moment, Liu Yunruo suddenly glanced at the huge stone pillar not far away and said:

"There's no rush for Xuanyin Pond. Why don't we collect all the Xuanyu first and then go there?"

"Of course there is no problem, but according to the records, this place is still on the outskirts of the mineral vein, and the quality of the black jade is not the best. On the way to Xuanyin Pond, there was a place where the marrow of black jade was born, and its quality is much higher."

"That's true." Liu Yunruo also thought of this and nodded slightly. However, the conversation between the two made Mo Juren, who was standing beside him, instantly look surprised.

Didn't expect this to happen? He really didn't know, at least it wasn't mentioned in the original destiny line, and Han Li was in a hurry to leave at that time, so he just hastily collected some black jade here.

It's normal if you think about it. After all, this is a whole vein of ore. The quality of the black jade contained in it cannot be the same. There will naturally be good ones and bad ones.

The holes on the surrounding walls are enough to prove that there must be more than one such mine around.

Since there is a better choice, Mo Juren naturally looks down on this place. However, he is thinking about the next plan in his heart. He is afraid that if it is really as he thought before, it will be impossible to eat alone.

But it doesn't matter. Xuanyu is precious, but it's enough to have enough. It's okay to share some of it.

Besides, he inherited the mantle of Fairy Bingpo, and theoretically he was also a part of Xiaoji Palace. If he distributed his things, it would not be considered as giving them to outsiders.

  "Junior Brother Mo, is there anything else?" At this moment, Ye Long suddenly turned around and asked. Hearing this, Mo Juren smiled slightly.

"Mo is completely clueless about this place. I don't know anything about it. What could possibly happen?"

"In that case, let's set off." Ye Long nodded, and immediately took the lead to walk towards a cave entrance. Mo Juren and Liu Yunruo naturally followed closely behind him.

Entering the cave, there is a slightly rough passage. There is a moonstone inlaid at regular intervals at the top, so it doesn't seem dim.

The three of them were not moving slowly, but they kept turning left and right in the passage. It took them about a quarter of an hour to finally reach the end.

The moment I walked out of the cave, what came into view was another cave. The space was obviously much smaller than the previous one, only less than half the size.

However, the quality of the black jade ore here is far superior.

The most obvious thing is the size. Somewhere on the wall, there is a bumpy area that has been mined. Although the amount of black jade revealed at this moment is not large, the size is as large as half a foot square.

This is more than ten times the amount of black jade inlaid on the surface of the boulder in the previous cave.

"Will it be difficult to mine such a large piece of jade?" Liu Yunruo obviously noticed the black jade exposed on the wall, and he was happy but also worried.

She knew very well that the thousand-year-old black jade here seemed to be easy to take out, but in fact it was not the case at all.

In the past, each piece of black jade was condensed into one with the entire mineral vein by ancient cultivators using their great magical powers. In addition, they have been continuously refined by the cold air in the cave for tens of thousands of years, and have long since been completely integrated.

No matter how powerful the treasure is, it is impossible to dig it out by force.

This is also the main reason why Xiaoji Palace owns a whole vein of black jade ore, but the reserves of black jade in its hands are still very scarce.

If it could be mined at will, and every cultivator in the palace had a mysterious jade magic weapon, the overall strength of the sect would instantly experience an unimaginable leap.

There is only one way to collect the ten thousand year old black jade, and that is to use the special 'Yin Ling Water'.

A special treasure left by the former founder of the sect, Fairy Bingpo, which can gather the earth's spiritual Yin energy by itself, and it will take ten years to condense a drop of Yin water.

Only with the help of this thing can you successfully obtain the black jade.

But at the same time, the amount of this water is really limited. From the last time the Void Spirit Hall was opened to now, less than a hundred drops have been condensed in total.

It would be fine if I were collecting the smaller ones, but these are so large that the difficulty of collecting them increases exponentially, and I really can't collect many.
