The four disciples of the Penglai Immortal Sect spent several hours in the mine, carefully searching for the whereabouts of the Ten Thousand Beast Immortal Sect Wei Zhuo, the bewitching young woman and others.

Su Chen walked at the back unhurriedly.

Taking advantage of the fact that the three people in front of him didn't pay attention, he quietly used his flying sword to dig a foot-deep hole in the wall of an abandoned mine tunnel, so that those soul-devouring flying ants who had eaten and drunk enough spirit beast meat could get into it and hide in it to mine.

He raises these soul-devouring flying ants every day, which is very costly.

Since this mine produces copper spirit ore, he thought, so they can simply feed on the spirit ore in this copper concentrate cave, and let go of their appetite to eat as they please.

Anyway, these spirit ores don't cost him money, and they don't eat for nothing.

Moreover, after the Soul Devouring Flying Ants are full, they can also go by the way to collect mysterious silver mines and contribute them to the Golden Ant Queen, which can be regarded as an unexpected gain for him.

With this Soul Eater Ant in his hand, Su Chen could sense what these Soul Eater Flying Ants were doing at any time and control their behavior.

Moreover, they are all male ants and cannot reproduce on their own. The only female ant is the golden queen in his hand, which ensures that they do not escape the control of the nest.

After doing this, Su Chen followed Ji Yuanzheng and the others out of the cave.

The four members of Penglai Immortal Sect quickly came out of the mine, discussed with a heavy expression, and sealed the entrance to the mine.

Ji Yuanzheng decided to go back to Penglai Immortal Sect and personally report to the top of the sect about the many emergencies that had occurred in Qingwu Immortal City.

For example, the death of the old city lord Jiang, Ge Yun, and the Chen family of the Double Cultivation Immortal Sect, the disappearance of the young master of the Ten Thousand Beasts Immortal Sect, and the manipulation of the Golden Demon Scorpion by Sanxiu to try to disrupt the Qingwu Immortal City, etc., I am afraid that there is some conspiracy in this.

Of course, there is a more important piece of information than these, that is, Ji Yuan is on the wall of the mine tunnel, and he has found a small amount of mysterious silver ore fragments.

When Ji Yuan was exploring the depths of the mine, he accidentally found a few mysterious silver ore fragments.

He was extremely surprised, and he was not sure if this was a mysterious mineral in the legend, and he was going to take it back and show it to the sect's Jindan Refining Sect Master.

Sun Ruoxiang was frightened by what happened in this mine, and didn't want to stay in this dangerous Qingwu Immortal City, and planned to follow Ji Yuanzheng back to Penglai Immortal Sect.

Only Su Chen and Zhuang Bufan, the two foundation-building monks, remained in Qingwu Immortal City to preside over the situation for the time being.

The Jiang City Lord of Qingwu Immortal City is dead, and it is necessary to have a foundation building monk from Penglai Immortal Sect to calm the scene here to ensure that there will be no more chaos.

...

Half a month later, Ji Yuanzheng flew to Penglai Immortal Sect and brought a lot of news and intelligence from Qingwu Immortal City back to the sect and presented it to the sect master.

The Penglai Sect Master immediately convened a meeting of Jindan elders to discuss how to deal with the matter of Qingwu Immortal City.

This matter is not big or small.

After all, for the Penglai Immortal Sect, one of the five great immortal sects in Shenzhou with a large number of disciples in the foundation building period, this mission in Qingwu Immortal City was only the death of a formal disciple in the foundation building period, which was naturally a trivial matter.

Every year, a large number of disciples of Penglai Immortal Sect go out to practice, and every year, no less than a few disciples of Zhuji die unexpectedly or disappear when they go out to practice, and they have not been heard from since.

In the world of cultivating immortals, there are inherent risks in training, and this is really a normal thing. Even if Ge Yun was the grandson of a Jindan elder of the sect, this did not guarantee that he would be safe and sound outside.

Judging from the number of casualties, it can be said that the matter is so small that it is not even worth holding a meeting of the elders of Jindan for this purpose.

Only Ge Yun's Ge family was extremely angry and excited, and one of Ge's Jindan elders said that he would thoroughly investigate the matter, find out the real culprit, and avenge Ge Yun.

However, to Dali, this matter involves the mines of Qingwu Immortal City, and this matter is quite important.

In recent hundreds of years, Qingwu Immortal City has been continuously supplying various spirit ores to Penglai Immortal Sect, and about one-tenth of Penglai Immortal Sect's middle and low-grade minerals come from the mines of Qingwu Immortal City, which is one of the important mining areas of Penglai Immortal Sect in the north.

However, the Penglai Immortal Sect lacked sufficient control over the Qingwu Immortal City.

Because, Qingwu Immortal City is located in the bitter cold land of the north, very close to the border of the Beiyi tribe, and only a day's flight away from the Tianfeng Gorge where the Demon Demon Alliance is located.

Qingwu Immortal City was only a two- or three-day flight away from the nearest small sect, the Ten Thousand Beasts Immortal Sect.

However, in comparison, from Penglai Immortal Sect to Qingwu Immortal City, the flight of the Imperial Sword was half a month, and it was a month long to go back and forth, far exceeding the border between the Ten Thousand Beast Immortal Sect and Beiyi.

What can happen in a month?

Even if the entire Qingwu Immortal City was destroyed by the Beiyi Man, it would take half a month for the Penglai Immortal Sect to receive the news, and it would take a month for reinforcements to arrive.

For such a long time, when they arrived, the daylilies were cold.

Moreover, a large number of minerals in Qingwu Immortal City were extremely heavy, and they could not be transported by the monk's flight, so they could only transport the Penglai Immortal Sect from the ground, and it would take at least half a year to make a trip.

There are even occasional incidents where the convoy transporting minerals is robbed by evil cultivators, so every time Penglai Immortal Sect has to mobilize a large number of people to escort the spirit mine convoy back to Penglai Immortal Sect.

The distance is too far, so that Penglai Immortal Sect lacks sufficient control over Qingwu Immortal City, and has always had a headache, and he feels that the whip is beyond his reach, like chicken ribs, and it is a pity to abandon it tastelessly.

The Ten Thousand Beasts Immortal Sect has always coveted Qingwu Immortal City, but it is just afraid of the prestige of Penglai Immortal Sect, one of the five great immortal sects, and does not dare to snatch it easily.

The Penglai Immortal Sect even wanted to give up control of the Qingwu Immortal City for a while, and simply let it be "sold" to the Ten Thousand Beasts Immortal Sect. As long as the Ten Thousand Beasts Immortal Sect can afford the price, the Penglai Immortal Sect will definitely be willing to sell it.

However, the Ten Thousand Beasts Immortal Sect had a weak foundation and could not afford to pay enough price to exchange for the control of this Qingwu Immortal City, and just counted on the Penglai Immortal Sect to automatically give up the Qingwu Immortal City.

The Penglai Immortal Sect was naturally unwilling to give up the Qingwu Immortal City without any gain, so it would often send the disciples of the sect to the Qingwu Immortal City to inspect it.

However, the few small particles of mysterious silver ore that Ji Yuanzheng brought back from Qingwu Immortal City this time that were suspected to be "Mithril Sect Mine" made the sect master of Penglai Immortal Sect and all the Jindan elders ecstatic.

Mithril Pyrane, abbreviated as Mithril.

Its role is very special, then the law can be refutated, and ten thousand laws can be refuted.

Even if it is just in the magic weapon, mixed with a very small amount of Mithril, it will have an incredible magical effect on the magic weapon.

The rarity of the Mithril Mine is comparable to the rarity of the Yuan Infant Cultivator in the Immortal Cultivation Realm of Middle-earth.

It can be said that this is a rumored mineral, which is enough to be listed in the top ten among the tens of thousands of rare minerals in the immortal cultivation world, and almost no refiner has seen it with his own eyes.

Even the Jindan monks of the Penglai Immortal Sect did not use the magic weapons refined by Mithril, because they did not have Mithril ore materials.

If anyone goes to the Five Great Immortal Sects with a pound of purified Mithril materials, I am afraid that they are willing to exchange a mysterious spirit fruit that has the opportunity to allow the ninth-layer monks to set foot on the Jindan Avenue.

Several Jindan stage refining masters personally identified and used many spells such as Samadhi True Fire Burning, Ice Freezing, Water Soaking, Lightning Strike, and many other spells to refine these small particles of silver ore, but to no avail.

They soon confirmed that the few mysterious silver grains that Ji Yuanzheng had brought back were the legendary "Mithril Pyralytes".

Although for some unknown reason, a very small amount of small particles of mythril were found in a copper concentrate cave in the Blue Black Immortal City. But now that we have found it, we must mine it with all our might.

The sect master of the Penglai Immortal Sect and the elders of the Jindan were extremely excited, and immediately decided to send a group of monks led by the Jindan Elder to the Qingwu Immortal City to firmly control this Qingwu Immortal City in their own hands.

And carry out full mining of this Mithril Mine, and bring as many Mithril Mines back to Penglai Immortal Sect as possible.
