Bao De's eyes have been opened wide these past few days.

  The team in front of him was unlike any he had seen or stayed with before. Three people formed a small squad, and that maddening three-talent formation, Linggu's pipe was enough, and rewards would be given to the subordinates who were restricted...

  Look at these old-timers around, now they are like kids, competing with each other bravely. No conspiracy or trickery, all are straightforward and simple methods, yet the team's appearance has changed completely.

  The longer he stayed, the more he felt the boss's strength. Not the kind of strength that can be seen at a glance, but the kind that is hidden behind a calm and gentle demeanor. Although everyone feared Xiaoniang, Bao De, who had been a leader before, could see at a glance who was the real mastermind.

  With such means, he will definitely be a great man in the future. Following such a leader, life won't be too difficult either.

  But boss was just a young man in his early twenties who had only recently broken through the first layer of the Condensed Pulse... luck, I suppose...

  No matter how many thoughts Bao De turned over in his mind, the amount of training he did would not decrease by a single bit compared to others. His former status as the leader and his cultivation of the Double Heaven Realm had not brought him any preferential treatment. Moreover, what made him even more helpless was that the other two members of the small team were training frantically, making him feel extremely depressed.

  Isn't it just a few broken artifacts? Is it worth risking your life for? Bao De, who had been the leader before, naturally didn't think much of these third-rate artifacts.

  But he didn't want to fall behind and cause trouble for the other two team members, so he could only follow along with their crazy training. No choice, the reward was calculated by combat unit, unless you could be like Ma Fan, one person being a combat unit on his own. Plus, with Xiao Niang watching from the side, he didn't dare to slack off even a bit.

  Never offend a young woman.

  This is the most widely spread sentence in the camp.

  However, huh... isn't that the boss? Bao De caught a glimpse of the boss out of the corner of his eye, carrying something strange into the camp.

  He couldn't help but secretly pay attention, however this momentary distraction caused the originally smooth operation of the Three Talents Formation to become somewhat hindered. This hindrance instantly disrupted the entire team's rhythm, and the three people had no choice but to stop. Seeing the dissatisfaction in the eyes of his two teammates, Bao De hurriedly apologized, he couldn't afford to offend his own teammates, otherwise when it came time for real combat they wouldn't even know how to die properly.

  Gongsun Zhi saw Zuo Mo carrying a strange object and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Senior brother, what is this thing?"

  "Refining spirit..." Zuo Mo suddenly stopped and picked up the extremely ugly thing in his hand, putting it in front of his eyes. Hmm, what should this thing be called?

  It can barely be considered a treasure, but there are many categories in the treasure, which category should this thing belong to? Treasure chest?

  A strange and ugly trunk, with a thousand holes and cracks all over it, covered in patches of different sizes and colors, making it look even more pitiful.

  "Refine the Spirit Seal Array." Zu Mo muttered to himself, thinking that next time he should change its shape, otherwise this thing wouldn't even have a good name.

  "Gongsun Cha fairly commented, seeing his senior brother's gaze was not good, and hurriedly asked: "What is the use of this thing?""

  As soon as he mentioned the use of this thing, Zuo Mo couldn't help but feel a little proud: "Hmph, it can refine and purify the spiritual energy within crystal stones, removing impurities."

  "Remove the impurities of the spiritual power in the crystal stone......" Gong Sun Chi was stunned at first, but he quickly reacted, his eyes suddenly opened wide, and his voice involuntarily rose: "Remove the impurities of the crystal stone's spiritual power?"

  Gongsun's junior brother's reaction made Zuo Mo even more pleased: "That's right!"

  Gongsun's eyes shone brightly, his tone of voice revealing a hint of excitement: "Can it replace Linggu?"

  "That's right!" Zuomo felt an inexplicable comfort all over his body, and he smiled: "I tried it out, the effect is not bad. This time I brought it over, specifically to find someone to try it out."

  Gongsun Cha didn't say another word, stood up and swept a glance at the cultivators who were training. He happened to see Leipeng and his two companions who had just finished their training, so he beckoned them over: "Leipeng, you three come here for a moment."

  Upon hearing the young woman's summons, the three of them hastily ran over with their buttocks wobbling.

  Gongsun Zhi turned his face and asked Zuō Mò: "Elder brother, how does this thing work?"

  "Alright, put your hands on this and the Heart Method will work." Zuomo demonstrated by placing his palms flat on the two circular arrays at the top of the box.

  Gongsun Zhi said to Lei Peng: "You come and try."

  "Oh." Lei Peng replied somewhat dazedly, he didn't understand what this broken thing in front of him was, but still followed the words and put his hand inside the circular array, starting to circulate his internal energy.

  "Ah!" Lei Peng couldn't help but exclaim in surprise - Spiritual Power!

  A stream of spiritual energy was absorbed from his palm, rapidly running along the meridians. What a pure spiritual energy! He was overjoyed, such pure spiritual energy could reduce a lot of effort in refining spiritual energy! The endless spiritual energy poured into his body from his palm, and in just an instant, he felt that the meridians which had been emptied just now were slightly replenished.

  It wasn't until then that he suddenly realized the purpose of this thing!

  Why did Xiaoyan's border become so tragic?

  The most important reason is that the spiritual energy in the air becomes thinner, thinning to the point where it is no longer sufficient for practitioners to absorb into their bodies.

  It is well known that the spiritual energy of cultivators all comes from the outside world and is absorbed and refined. The free-roaming spiritual energy in the air is the main source. After these spiritual energies are absorbed into the body, they become more pure spiritual energy through refinement and are stored in the cultivator's meridians. The spiritual energy in the small mountain boundary becomes extremely thin, which is equivalent to cutting off the largest source of spiritual energy for cultivators at once.

  Helpless, the cultivator had to seek another way, such as Linggu. The spiritual energy contained in Linggu is easy for the cultivator to absorb and harmless. However, the crystal stone that everyone uses most often contains more spiritual energy than Linggu, but due to the impurities contained in the crystal stone being more overbearing than those in the air, it causes greater damage to the cultivator's meridians and makes it difficult to extract. Long-term extraction causes great harm to the body.

  Unless some major sects have secret methods to dissolve impurities in crystal stones.

  Secret Method...

  Lei Peng's hands left the box with a somewhat absent-minded and eerie expression.

  Nian Lu looked at Lei Peng with a strange gaze, muttering to himself in his heart. It's rare to see Da Peng with this kind of expression. He couldn't help but take another look at that extremely tattered box, which seemed to be problematic.

  When he took his hands off the box, he also had a strange expression on his face, muttering something in his mouth, as if he had seen a ghost.

  Zongru's face also showed a look of shock after he finished the test.

  No matter what storms were stirred up in the hearts of the three, Zuo Mo and Gong Sun Zan were extremely satisfied with the results of the experiment. What was left was just to improve the appearance of the thing a bit, its sales were really too poor, even Zuo Mo himself could hardly bear it.

  Gongsun Cha stared at the ugly trunk with a pair of big, shining eyes. He knew exactly what this thing meant to them! As long as they had it, one of the nooses around their necks would be gone!

  The current Xiaoshan boundary, the price of Linggu has risen to an absurd degree. On the contrary, due to the lack of commodity circulation, the role of Jingshi has been greatly weakened, and it is often seen that Jingshi is casually discarded. The rare Linggu has become the hardest currency in Xiaoshan boundary.

  "But there's a problem."

  Zuo Mo's words pulled Gong Sun Cho back from his trance, and he suddenly startled: "What problem?"

  "If we're going to refine a large quantity, we'll need a lot of rotten iron silver." Zuo Mo's tone was somewhat bitter: "I still have some on hand, but only enough for a few."

  Gongsun Zhi was taken aback and silently thought "this isn't good", then hastily asked: "Is this Rotten Iron Silver very rare?"

  "It's a relatively common three-product material." Zuo Mo spread his hands: "We used up quite a bit previously, and there isn't much stock left."

  "This matter...," Gong Sun Chi thought for a moment, then raised his hand, signaling everyone to gather around.

  Everyone stopped training, looking at me and I looked at them, but still gathered together, however their expressions were somewhat puzzled. Little girl had never interrupted their training before.

  "Gongsun Cha asked, 'Who knows where there is tin and lead?'"

  Many cultivators looked bewildered, what is Rotten Iron Silver?

  Suddenly, someone raised his hand: "I know." The one who raised his hand was Bao De.

  "Where is he?" Gong Sun Chi stared at Bao De.

  As soon as he touched the little girl, her gaze suddenly became sharp. Bao De's cold sweat flowed down instantly. However, he was after all a former leader, and he forcibly suppressed the panic in his heart, pretending to be calm: "I don't know about the finished product, but I do know of an iron-silver ore vein."

  "Ore vein!" Zuo Mo's eyes lit up: "Where?"

  Bao De swallowed his saliva. Honestly, he said: "In a place three hundred miles away from here, there is a place called Shimen Tan. It used to be the site of a sect called Fa Jian Men, but now it's been occupied by a group of people."

  Zuo Mo turned his face to look at Gong Sun Zan, and Gong Sun Zan immediately understood what he meant. He wanted that vein of ore. Although Gong Sun Zan was a bit puzzled in his heart - even if there was a vein of ore, who would be able to excavate it by hand? However, since his Shixiong said he wanted it, then he definitely had some way to do it.

  He turned his face and stared at Bao De: "How many people are there? What's their origin?"

  Bao De hastily said: "There are probably more than 60 people, and the leader Xie Shan is ruthless. They have all reached the Condensing Pulse stage or higher. They heard that Fa Jian Men had a spiritual valley, so they slaughtered Fa Jian Men and occupied Shi Men Tan."

  He continued cautiously: "If the boss wants to, he only needs to spend a small amount of money to buy it from Xie Shan. I still have some friendship with him..."

  "It's all right." Gong Sun Chi waved his hand and continued, "Continue training. Send these guys to cultivate." Bao De's words were stuck in his throat, but he wisely ran off to train.

  "What do you plan to do?" Zuo Mo asked with some curiosity.

  He knew his junior brother must have had some ideas already.

  "Just cripple them." Gong Sun Chi said carelessly: "What reason is there to give them crystal stones? Wanting to snatch food from our mouths, humph!"

  Zuo Mo couldn't help but shake his head, Gong Sun's war frenzy was acting up again!

  Those people in Xie Shan are really pitiful!

  He couldn't help but feel sympathetic, and just as he was about to speak, it turned into: "Hurry up with the time!"
