Cultivate steadily, the whole world of cultivating immortals is my home

Chapter 161

Taking his place as the controller of Huogufang City was Shen Lian's idea after looking through Gong Zhongze's memories.

He came to Tianzhu Mountain to look for ores, and he also understood Huogufang City through his memory.

There is a spiritual vein of earth fire here, and it is more than ten thousand miles away from the red crystal mining city. It is very suitable to become a base for smelting ore.

In fact, there are two ways to replace it. Make a back-end contract for Huo Gan Zhenren, which is the same as the method controlled by Gong Zhongze, and still let Huo Qian Zhenren take the lead.

But this method is a bit risky. After the Houtu Contract backfired in the Rift Valley, Shen Lian was also afraid that Master Huogan would betray him.

Even if his Houtu contract is powerful and the terms are comprehensive, there is still a risk of exposure if Master Huogan plays with his life.

Who knows if this guy will avenge Gong Zhongze.

On the other hand, if one fully absorbs the memory of Master Huogan and then refines it into a puppet, although the agility is somewhat inferior, as long as it does not go out on the market, the security will be greatly improved.

As for the transaction with Chijingfang City, this kind of transaction does not require Jin Dan to personally take over the goods. When the time comes, he will have no problem pretending to be Gong Zhongze.

The current task is to fully accept the memory of Master Huogan, which requires Master Huogan not to resist.

The previous search for Gong Zhongze's memories was not comprehensive, but fortunately, most of them were captured, and I had a certain understanding of his practice methods and daily habits.

Now that the memory of Master Huogan has been collected, the plan to replace it is almost complete.

Master Huo Gan was lying on the ground. Although he had suffered backlash from the Houtu Contract twice in a row, Shen Lian, who was accustomed to keeping a steady hand, still allowed the puppet talisman to surround Master Huo Gan holding the Tianyan Jade Talisman.

As long as there is any slight movement, he will be sent on his way immediately.

It's best to use his body as a puppet, but he can still make a fake one without his body.

"The road to immortality is really boring."

Sensing the coming of spiritual thoughts, Huo Gan didn't open his eyes and muttered softly.

"I have already cultivated enough, you don't need to waste your efforts."

After hundreds of years of cultivating the path of immortality, I have been a puppet for a lifetime.

This immortal cultivation is very boring.

In the heart of Master Huo Gan, he was like a bright lamp. He did not die in the rift like Gong Zhongze because he was still useful.

Because the entire Huogufang City is supported by him.

If you want to take over this industry completely, his position is very important.

"You don't want to avenge Gong Zhongze?"

Regarding the voice ringing in his ears, Master Huogan showed a hint of ridicule on his face.

Do you still want him to continue to be a puppet?
Sensing that touch of ridicule, Shen Lian unnaturally stretched out his hand to dig at his nose to relieve his embarrassment.

Well, no matter how much you talk to someone who wants to die, it doesn't seem to have much effect.

If you are no longer afraid of death, why would you still be afraid of him?

"Then let go of your spiritual thoughts. After I check your memory, I will release your soul smoke into reincarnation. Maybe after reincarnation, you will be promoted to Jindan and Nascent Soul in your next life."

At this time, Master Huo Gan opened his eyes and looked around, but did not find Shen Lian's figure. It was always the four shadows that gave him a dangerous aura.

His eyes were looking up blankly.

"You can search whatever you want. If I can have a fellow Taoist witness my path to becoming an immortal, this life is not in vain."

"My path to becoming an immortal is very boring."

"There's no point in reincarnation. If you really want to have a next life, then just live a mortal life and enjoy the autumn of the grass and trees."

After Master Huogan opened his mouth, he found that there was still no movement around him.

On the other side, Shen Lian was writing furiously in the hall. He was drawing a spiritual rubbing talisman. This talisman has the function of rubbing other people's memories.

Of course, this is a compulsory rubbing, regardless of whether the monk agrees or not.

Now that Master Huogan has agreed, he can directly read it with his spiritual mind.

But Shen Lian didn't dare.

Although from Gong Zhongze's memory, it can be judged that Huo Qianzhen's feelings towards Gong Zhongze are very complicated, and there is definitely hatred.

But Gong Zhongze was also kind to Huo Gan.

Even if Master Huo Gan agreed to let him flip through it at will, Shen Lian would not gamble.

What if Huo Gan is cheating?

False Dan Zhenren's spiritual thoughts are much stronger than those of Zhuji. If he hadn't been completely sure, he would have tried to use them a long time ago.

Shen Lian didn't expect that the talismans he inherited had such a complete range of types. He just tried to flip through them, and unexpectedly found the right one.

The senior who created this talisman must have encountered a similar situation.

"Buzz!"

Master Huo Gan, who was waiting quietly, suddenly heard a buzzing sound, and then a jade talisman flashed over and stuck to his forehead.

Immediately, ripples appeared in the sea of ​​spiritual thoughts, and his memory seemed to be triggered.

"Ah……"

Seeing this scene, Master Huogan once again showed a hint of ridicule at the corner of his mouth.

"It's better to be cautious, better to be cautious."

"Gong...Master, he did not lose unjustly."

The sarcasm on Master Huogan's face became more and more intense. He had no intention of stopping it and allowed his memory to be opened bit by bit.

He muttered softly, as if he was reminding him, but also as if he was telling himself.

"...How can I not get my shoes wet when I often walk by the river?
……

"Fellow Taoist, be careful."

"Ha ha……"

"puff!"

A ray of spiritual light fell, and Huo Gan's eyes dimmed while he was laughing, completely losing his life.

This time Shen Lian did not disperse the rising soul smoke, letting the green smoke curl into the twisted Qingming.

"call……"

Shen Lian held three jade talismans in his hands. In order to ensure that the memory depicted was not false, he printed the memory of Master Huo Gan three times.

From beginning to end, Master Huogan did not resist.

But Shen Lian was not happy with what this man killed.

"According to my fellow Taoist's warning, I should check myself three times from now on and be careful every day."

Facing the corpse lying on the ground, Shen Lian bowed solemnly.

The three memories of Master Huogan are all the same. As he said, his path to immortality is quite boring.

After coming out of the secular world, he became Gong Zhongze's puppet, and everything in his practice was arranged by Gong Zhongze.

Boring training, hunting monsters and practicing again, until the two came to the Red Crystal Mining City, Huo Gan was promoted to the realm of fake elixir, and established this city under the arrangement of Gong Zhongze.

Even if it is a weapon refining, Gong Zhongze needs to arrange it for whom, and it is a completely managed path to immortality.

I want to resist but am powerless...

Maybe it’s not because I’m powerless, but because I’m remembering the kindness I received from the disasters in the mortal world…

In short, in Master Huogan's memory, he has very complicated emotions towards the man he once called 'Master'. …

Below the attic, a place shrouded in red mist was billowing with heat.

In the space that was once in full swing, now there is no other sound except the sound of roaring flames.

There were originally working monks here, but these monks were all taken away by Gong Zhongze. After Gong Zhongze was killed, these monks also died at the same time.

By the way, the two foundation builders originally stationed at Fangshi Archway also died together.

After Shen Lian cremated the people, they were buried in the green land outside the valley.

In addition to the dead monk, there was also a second-order red crystal fire ant queen, which was Gong Zhongze's spiritual pet and was specially used to collect ore fragments.

Just by being able to think of starting with the details and selecting those slags that the monks disdain, Gong Zhongze's vision is not ordinary.

Speaking of which, when Shen Lian came up with this method, he was still behind Gong Zhongze, and key people formed an industrial chain.

Talent.

This place, located above the Fire Vein Spirit Lake, shrouded in red mist, and protected by a ban, is Gong Zhongze's core secret place.

He constructed all of this in order to advance himself to the realm of golden elixir.

What's wrong with the lack of spiritual roots? Then use spiritual stones to smash it and use spiritual objects to pile it up!
Shen Lian opened the restrictions on the stone door of the cave a little bit, and the rich spiritual energy poured into his nostrils along the cracks in the door.

After entering the cave, the stone door was closed again, and Shen Lian felt that he had entered a third-level spiritual vein.

This stone chamber is not big, only three feet in size, but it is full of inspiration. In the middle is a half-foot-sized gemstone platform, which is mostly hollowed out but filled with irregular red crystals.

Rich inspiration overflowed from it.

Outside the gem table, there are several jade boxes.

Starfall Secret Pill, three pieces.

Moonlight contains five round elixirs.

Fire beads, three.

Wood spirit beads, two.

When Shen Lian opened the last jade box, a purple spiritual object the size of a finger appeared.

This small purple spiritual object is placed together with several other crystal clear spiritual stones.

After seeing these two objects, he raised his eyebrows.

Purpurea versicolor.

Mid-grade spirit stone.

Gong Zhongze... really good!
Not to mention the previous elixirs, let’s talk about Ziyunzhi first, which is the main ingredient for refining the Golden Pill. This piece is only the size of a finger and should have fallen from a complete Ziyunzhi plant.

Shen Lian searched through Gong Zhongze's memories, but unfortunately his memory was missing and he couldn't find out how he got it.

Needless to say, there is no need to say more about the middle-grade spiritual stone. One piece is worth 100 yuan of the low-grade spiritual stone, but the middle-grade spiritual stone is more spiritual. If it is used to upgrade the golden elixir, it can also add a little help.

In the world of cultivating immortals, low-grade spiritual stones are the mainstream currency for monks below Nascent Soul, while medium-grade spiritual stones are also circulated at levels above the golden elixir as a means of cultivation and exchange.

There are three middle-grade spiritual stones in the jade box, one of which is red in color and is obviously of fire attribute.

From elixirs to spiritual stones, Gong Zhongze had prepared everything for himself.

The main reason why he has not been promoted is that he is not sure. In addition to his low spiritual roots, he is too old.

The purpose of hunting down foundation-building monks this time is mainly to collect spiritual stones and buy a third-level mid-grade Heavenly Secret Spirit Gathering Array. This array is said to have a hint of the ability to attract Heavenly Secrets, which can assist cultivation and breakthroughs.

Immediately, Shen Lian's eyes fell on the red stone trough in the middle. He looked through Gong Zhongze's memory and found the relevant fragments.

This stone was found by Gong Zhongze after he killed a foundation builder and found it from his stored magic weapon. When he sat on it to practice, it could actually help him purify the power of fire.

Shen Lian flew to sit cross-legged on the red stone, and immediately felt the crystals in the mostly hollowed-out stone trough touching his buttocks, but a warm energy was injected into his body.

After a dozen breaths, he frowned and jumped down from above.

The quality of his fire spiritual power is too high, so this red crystal stone tank has little effect on him.

In order to promote himself to the golden elixir, Gong Zhongze made all preparations, but in the end he fell short.

……

Putting the things into the storage bracelet, Shen Lian walked out of the stone chamber. The abundant spiritual energy in this stone chamber was obtained by tapping the spiritual veins below.

Unlike Gong Zhongze, Shen Lian does not need to squeeze his spiritual veins to practice.

He also wanted to save this fire spirit vein.

"Master, I have stabilized the red crystal fire ants."

Below the smelting room is the nest of red crystal fire ants. After the second-level fire ant females died, there were still many lower-level females left, so Shen Lian immediately let Dahei take over.

In the past, I always played with black girls, but this time I also let Dahei play naked.

"Let's see if we can give birth to an ant clan with dual bloodlines of black horned ants and red crystal fire ants."

This is the task given by Shen Lian to Dahei. Red crystal fire ants have wings and can fly short distances, which is inherently much faster than black horned ants.

With the roar of the ground fire, the ore quenched here has been collected by Shen Lian a long time ago. A total of 30 jun of various first-level ores, more than [-] jun of second-level ores, and a handful of third-level ores were harvested.

According to the agreement between Master Huogan and Master Hongyun who is in charge of Red Crystal Mining City, a transaction will be conducted every five years. At that time, the ore will be traded at [-]% of the price of the same grade of ore.

In other words, Gong Zhongze is just making hard money.

But then again, without the care of real Hongyun, this business can't continue.

The last transaction was two years ago.

Looking through the memories of Master Huo Gan, we learned that Gong Zhongze was not the only one involved in this business. After he established Huogufang City, there were many more people in major mining cities who raised ants and collected mineral debris.

Fortunately, here in Red Crystal Mining City, there is no strong competitor because of Hongyun Zhenren.

On the contrary, there are some small-scale monks who have cultivated some small ants, but they are not enough.

Let’s just say that there are many smart people in the world of immortality, and they may not be able to think of a good way, but they can still steal their masters very quickly.

Just as Shen Lian thought, the transactions were carried out by the foundation-building monks, and Master Hongyun didn't care at all. Master Huogan hadn't met Master Hongyun for more than ten years.

The last time we met was at an auction.

The two of them just nodded.

In this case, the safety of him replacing Huo Gan Zhenren will be greatly increased, but precautions should still be taken.

The next step is to quickly breed black-horned ants and red crystal fire ants in the shortest possible time to speed up the collection of ore debris.

Speaking of which, there are quite a lot of second- and third-level ores harvested this time. The resources of the six foundation builders alone are a huge number.

Shen Lian summarized everything and found that there were 240 million spirit stones in total, 150 million of which were scraped out from Gong Zhongze.

Third-level ore, seven types for 16 yuan.

There are more than 200 pieces of second-level ores of various types.

There are more than 60 demon pills.

There are thirteen late second-level monsters, enough for him to bleed and brew spiritual ink.

There are even more various elixirs and other miscellaneous things.

After Shen Liangui finished, he burned all the storage rings and identification documents to ashes.

Apart from anything else, with this batch of ore and the previous reserves, it is completely possible to start smelting the ore and refining the prototype of the magic weapon.
