Symbiotic panel, I am cultivating immortality in the world of immortality

Chapter 59: Mineral Veins, Brother Rat
"Fellow Daoist! This is my fault!"

The sword cultivator didn't dare to offend Li Ye. After carefully putting the bamboo sword into the scabbard, he quickly clasped his fists to apologize and took out a pile of spirit stones from his storage bag.

His sincere tone reduced Li Ye's anger a little.

"Here are five hundred spirit stones, please accept them, fellow Daoist!"

Five hundred?
It seems pretty good to be able to get spirit stones just by casting a spell.

Adding these five hundred spirit stones...

Li Ye instantly felt that there didn't seem to be any problem. It was just a strand of hair. He could get 500 spirit stones for losing a little hair. It was really good.

He waved his hand, observed carefully, put his hair away carefully, and also put away the spirit stone.

Then he said, "It's a good thing you didn't hurt me. Fellow Daoist, you should still hone your skills."

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, your hair cannot fall here.

"Fellow Daoist, you are absolutely right." The sword cultivator nodded and introduced himself: "My name is Wei Qingye."

"May I ask your name, fellow Daoist? I'm afraid I'll need your help in the future, so I can find you."

"Li Ye."

Considering that he had accepted 500 spirit stones, Li Ye hesitated for a moment before saying, "That spirit plant seems to be resisting you. Fellow Daoist Wei, you should be careful."

Wei Qingye was quite relaxed: "With Fellow Daoist Li's help this time, there will probably be no problem for about two months.

I will come back to see you in two months and bring you some spiritual plants unique to the Southern Region."

He clasped his fists again and said, "I still have a few monsters to slay. It would be a shame if my new spiritual sword didn't shed blood. Fellow Daoist Li, see you someday!"

He strode off.

Li Ye watched him leave and couldn't help but mutter, "He almost saw my blood... But should I go on?"

He looked around, and just as he said that, the chair was moved again, moving silently.

In a moment, he returned to Lingji Teng's counter.

After seeing him, the latter asked, "How many spirit stones did that kid give you? Judging from his high-spirited look, the problem must have been solved."

"Give me five hundred spirit stones."

"Oh, that's not bad. After all, you're only a Qi Refiner and haven't made a name for yourself yet. Five hundred spirit stones isn't a small amount. Besides, he'll need your help in the future, so it's a steady income."

"It's really rare for something like this to happen. I don't know what he did."

"The secret sword-planting technique of Tianmai Jianshan is already quite mature... but suddenly there's a problem on our side. It seems we need to send someone to keep an eye on him."

Lingji Teng pondered for a moment and shook his head:
"Forget it, just consider it as treating the spiritual plant's injuries."

"When your cultivation level improves in the future, your state of mind and understanding further increase, and your reputation rises, the amount of spirit stones you receive will naturally increase as well."

"After all, our Four Seasons Sect is truly unrivaled in the world in spiritual plant healing. Some of our junior brothers have made a lot of money by healing spiritual plants."

"Any technique that is cultivated to a high level is useful and can earn you spirit stones."

After hearing this, Li Ye knew that the other party did not consider that he did not understand these things and gave him less spirit stones, or even gave him more.

However, he still had some doubts in his mind:

"That bamboo-like spirit plant is very resistant to him. This kind of resistance...don't sword cultivators always want the sword to be moved by the heart and to be handy?"

"If the sword doesn't work well, wouldn't that be dangerous? Why does he insist on forcing the healing process? Wouldn't it be better to just use a different one?"

Lingji Teng guessed Li Ye would ask this question and replied, "A sword cannot be sharp if it is not sharpened. It also needs to be sharpened with the sword cultivator.

This sword vein shoot is quite spiritual. If it is honed well, it can be used to polish one's own life-saving magic weapon from the foundation-building stage.

I guess he regarded this as an experience. Although such a thing happened, the path of sword cultivation really requires overcoming all difficulties. Changing it casually might cause him to lose his state of mind.

Besides, bamboo itself is a pure and spiritual thing. A cultivator with a strong murderous aura would like to have a trace of pure spirit with him, so he is so anxious and unwilling to let go.

"The changes of the sun and moon, the passing of the four seasons, the gentle breeze, rain and dew... these are all the future chapters of this magic."

"I see."

Li Ye finally understood, and at the same time he felt how important it was to have such a knowledgeable "elder" who could teach and answer his questions. He bowed slightly to Lingji Teng.

"Hey! Don't thank me. Since you've inherited the Xiguang Nurturing Technique, you'll still have to take an assessment when you enter the sect. And I think you should have gotten rid of those hungry bones by now, right?"

"Would you like to take more this time, ten plants?"

"..."

"Then I'd rather not take it. Just five will be enough!" Li Ye quickly shook his head and took the box containing the five hungry bones amid the muttering of Lingji Teng.

Then he didn't forget to ask: "My nephew and Senior Brother Su Ya agreed to get a spot on the mine..."

This matter obviously made Lingji Teng lose interest. It lazily took out a token:
"Take this and go up to Room C9. The mines aren't open to the public yet, so you can pick the one you like."

"Junior Brother Rat over there should be able to tell you the specific details. Go ahead."

"Oh, by the way, the mulberry trees and silkworms will be delivered to your home tomorrow. Remember to take good care of them."

After handing the token to Li Ye, it retracted directly and placed a "No One" sign on the table.

"...Then uncle master, please have a good rest." Li Ye picked up the token, walked up the stairs, quickly found room "Bingjiu", and knocked on the door gently.

A shrill voice immediately came from behind the door: "Come in!"

Li Ye then pushed the door open and walked in.

There was a large, tightly closed iron door in the room, and a rocking chair in front of the door.

Lying on it was a white-haired mouse wearing a vest, about the size of a child and looking like a human.

【Name】：Mineral Seeking Rat
Mood: Happy, leisurely

[Status]: Good
[Bindable]: Able to continuously produce various high-level mineral veins. No need to dig, it can be used as a spiritual plant for bed.

When the white-haired mouse saw Li Ye, doubts appeared in its small eyes and it sat up.

"Hey, when did another disciple appear here? Boy, when did you become a disciple?"

"Uh, I haven't entered yet." Li Ye said, "I got the Autumn Harvest Token from Senior Uncle Lingji Teng a while ago, and I plan to enter the sect in the fall."

"Hiss!" The white-haired rat jumped up in surprise: "Autumn Harvest Token!"

The fact that the boss of Lingji Teng was able to give him the Autumn Harvest Token, could it be that the immortal wanted to accept a disciple?

This needs to be won over well!
Its little eyes rolled around, and its tone suddenly became enthusiastic: "Hey! It's my junior fellow apprentice who's about to come in.

Isn't this a coincidence? Are you here to occupy the mineral vein? Come on! I'll pick a good one for you!"

It stretched out its hand and gently knocked on the door, and the inside immediately opened up, revealing a brightly lit tunnel with lamps hanging on both sides.

"Then I'll trouble you, senior brother." Li Ye also roughly knew why this guy was suddenly enthusiastic, so he simply smiled back and followed him into the mine.

White Mouse was hopping in front, carrying a pickaxe on his shoulder, and introduced: "Since you want to occupy the mineral vein, you should have understood it.

This is the mine that Mo Jia has entrusted to us to manage. All the Buddha's Crown Gold produced here cannot be taken out of the mine and must be handed over in full.

The rest of the minerals can be taken away.

However, if my junior brother’s spiritual plants or spiritual beasts need it, it doesn’t matter as long as they eat it in the vein.

Ah, time flies by while I'm chatting with my junior brother, and here we are."

Did it go by so fast? It's only been a short while.

It was the first time that Li Ye had seen such a talkative and mercenary spirit beast. He could only nod in agreement and then look ahead——

The space ahead suddenly became wider.

At this time, Li Ye and the white-haired rat were standing on a platform made entirely of blocks and other mechanisms. In the distance, they could see many gears embedded in the rock wall slowly turning.

The whole place was filled with an indescribable sense of order, the sound of gears turning, the movement of mechanisms, as if one was inside some giant mechanical device.

Of course, the most eye-catching thing here is the thirty portals standing in a row not far away, with rippling water on the edges.

Li Ye blinked.

Then...could that be a space portal?
It's just mining, is it really necessary to make such a big scene?
