Chapter 283: Take a different path, Jin Shidan

"The Way of the Mine Dan!"

"I didn't expect them to actually research it. ”

Zhang Fan's expression was unmoved, but there were waves in his heart, he didn't want to be here, but he could see the legendary Dan Dao, and looking at this situation, it seemed that it had developed to a considerable height.

The way of the Mine Dan, there is no need to consult the bitter Taoist in this regard, Zhang Fan himself knows a lot.

After all, he had studied the art of alchemy, so he naturally had a certain understanding of the Dan Dao that was now circulating in the surface immortal cultivation realm, as well as its inheritance and development.

Speaking of which, this is also related to the redevelopment of Dan Dao after the destruction of the ancient times.

After the Great Destruction, a large amount of spiritual energy was lost, resulting in the extinction of many common spiritual grasses in ancient times, coupled with the loss of some alchemy secret methods, for a while, the immortal cultivators who had re-emerged in the ruins fell into the dilemma of having no elixir to use.

Faced with this situation, many talented people began to study Dan Dao again, almost in the spirit of Shennong tasting herbs, looking for substitutes one by one, and restoring most of the ancient Dan prescriptions according to their efficacy.

Most of the elixirs refined in this way are much worse than the effects of similar elixirs in ancient times, but they are always better than nothing.

At this time, someone put forward an idea.

Since alternatives can be found, why not replace the spirit grass with something else as the main material for alchemy?

Spirit grass will be affected by the dissipation of heaven and earth's spiritual energy, but some things will not, such as minerals.

Various materials can be extracted from minerals to refine magic weapons, so some quick-thinking people have thought, why can't they separate some useful parts from them and use them to refine elixirs?

"Don't go any way, Jinshi Dan!"

This is the so-called way of the mine.

This idea, like a stone stirring up a thousand waves, caused a huge repercussion among the immortal cultivators who studied the path of the Dan Dao, and some opposed it denounced it as an evil way and was whimsical, and some were in favor of it, and began to conduct many experiments in an attempt to speak with facts.

Originally, whether it was successful or not, there would eventually be a conclusion coming out, but I never thought that at this time, an accident happened.

This accident is not bad news, on the contrary, it is great news for the entire immortal cultivation world.

Many elixirs that have been identified as extinct after the collapse of arrogance have reappeared in some places.

At this time, the immortal cultivators reacted, not only humans and demon beasts, but also those spirit grasses, why not?

By this time, a considerable amount of time had passed since the Great Destruction, and some spirit grasses with strong adaptability had grown vigorously again.

At this moment, whether it was an ordinary immortal cultivator or someone who was aspiring to the Dan Dao, they all shifted their attention and began to study how to cultivate, choose the right place, and let some spirit grass reappear in the world.

Such an idea is more realistic than the way of mining pills, and it is much easier to use the pill prescriptions handed down from ancient times than to start everything from scratch.

Now that there is a better choice, the way of mining Dan has been forgotten by everyone almost instantly, and it has only left an insignificant stroke in the history of the development of Dandao, representing the divergent path that has appeared.

However, at this time, in the depths of the earth, what appeared in front of Zhang Fan and the ascetic people was not just a concept in the imagination, but a real Dan Dao secret method that was real, well-developed and enough to support the cultivation of a large number of immortal cultivators.

I didn't feel it at the beginning, but the more I saw later, the more doubts Zhang Fan had in his heart.

Although this Hehuan City is only an attached city of Broken Mountain City, the immortal cultivation resources in it are quite rich, no less than some prosperous markets he saw in Qinzhou.

Magic weapons, spiritual weapons, charms, array plates, all kinds of refining materials, everything is like the surface, there are only two things, which are different from the surface situation.

These two things are the elixir and spirit grass that immortal cultivators desperately need and commonly use.

The spirit pill is still better, although it is extremely rare, but it can still be seen in some stalls by chance, but the spirit grass is different, the stalls seen along the way, there are not thousands but hundreds, among so many stalls, even the most basic spirit grass has not been found, this is too strange, and it immediately attracted Zhang Fan's attention.

Generally speaking, there are only two possibilities for this kind of roadside stalls, either they don't exist at all, or the prices are so high that these stall owners can't afford them, and they only appear in large shops.

At this time, Zhang Fan also reacted, the special living environment underground, without sunlight, is full of aura that is very different from the surface, and the special surname of the earth fire, etc., will definitely make many common spiritual grasses on the surface unable to survive, even if it is cultivated through special methods, its cost will be much higher than that of the surface.

This will lead to a situation that, similar to after the Great Destruction of the Ancients, the monks here will face the dilemma of having no elixir to use.

No matter how outstanding an immortal cultivator's qualifications are, he has his limits, and when he needs to break through at a critical moment, it must be assisted by the elixir, even if it is not, when he cultivates normally, it is also a good thing to increase his cultivation speed.

In the immortal cultivation world without pills, there is almost no possibility of prosperity!

The situation I saw before shows that the immortal cultivation world here is obviously very developed, and there are many immortal cultivators, even an inconspicuous small village like Sijia Village has an immortal cultivator, how can there not be enough elixir?

There is only one possibility, in the inner world, there is another Dan Dao secret method!

The Dan Road here, the ** of the ten is to embark on a road that is very different from the surface, and the most likely of them is the way of the Mine Dan that once caused monstrous waves, after all, in the depths of the earth, everything is missing, but what is not lacking is an inexhaustible source of minerals.

In many cases, some methods are not created because they cannot be created, but they are simply not necessary.

Back then, if it wasn't for the discovery of the possibility of cultivating the extinct spirit grass again at a critical moment, then the way of the Mineral Pill would have been studied by those senior Dan masters a long time ago.

Therefore, Zhang Fan was not surprised at all that the cultivators of these ancient descendants and the Immortal Cultivators of the Earth's Center Immortal Cultivation Realm were able to study this Dan Dao secret method.

The reason why he chose this piece of golden stone to ask is also particular.

The application of the golden stone in refining weapons is mainly to refine some sand-like mass destruction magic weapons, which are not commonly used, and the power is not very great, but the value is not very high.

However, the stall owner placed it in a conspicuous position, such a low-value and not very commonly used thing, there must be his reason for placing it like this, the biggest possibility is that it also has a role outside the instrument, resulting in its price being better than some of the rarer refining materials next to it.

Now it seems that it is not bad!

"Boy!"

In the voice of the bitter man, there was a rare sense of urgency, as if he couldn't hold it back, and images appeared in Zhang Fan's mind, all of which were the appearance of him wandering all over the ground, scratching his ears and cheeks.

"Don't let go of a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

Even if he didn't say this, Zhang Fan would not let this opportunity slip away in front of his eyes.

The palm of his hand clenched violently, and the fist-sized golden stone was firmly grasped in his hand, as if it was about to crack, and there was a strange sound.

Suddenly there was a clear opening in front of me, and a thoroughfare suddenly appeared in front of me, leading straight to the endless distance.

Not long ago, Zhang Fan had purchased a large amount of spiritual grass in Zhilantian, and since then, everything has been complicated, until he entered this inner world, he has not used up a penny, which is enough to support his long-term cultivation, but no matter how much, when it will eventually be exhausted, let alone learn one more means, if he returns to the surface later, it is another kind of accumulation, which is equivalent to jumping on the ladder of a shortcut on the long road of immortality.

Besides, within a hundred years, he must be Jindan Dacheng, only in this way can he really participate in the big drama that unfolded in Qinzhou, as a real starring role, not as a dragon.

In that case, with his qualifications, without the assistance of the elixir, it would be almost impossible. Although there are nine turns of Qiankun Ding to help, but on the Dan Dao, it is also good to be able to go further.

Just ask, how could he let it go.

"Senior, look ......"

A voice came into Zhang Fan's ears at this time, it was the middle-aged stall owner, who obviously saw that he was silent, and he was impatient.

Zhang Fan smiled slightly, stood up, and did not bargain, and directly bought this piece of golden stone.

Then he didn't say much, and in the warm greeting of the middle-aged stall owner who said "come back again", he took Wan'er's little hand and turned around and left directly.

As he walked, he said in his heart:

"Ku Lao, it seems that we have something to do. ”

At the same time, in my mind, the laughter of the bitter path came, and he looked very interested.

After leaving the stall, Zhang Fan walked around Hehuan City again, except for those big shops, almost all the small stalls were looked at by him.

After doing this, he finally had a general understanding of the immortal cultivation resources of this inner world.

Ores, refining materials and the like, except for some rare things, ordinary things that can be found on the ground are available here, and the price is extremely low, even if some things are almost impossible to find on the ground, they can often be seen here.

For a while, Zhang Fan was almost dazzled, and his hands were itchy for a while, if he didn't know that it was not very meaningful for him to refine some ordinary spiritual weapons now, the focus was even more on the way of mineral pills, and he almost wanted to go bankrupt and sweep away these refining materials.

It is a bitter Dao person, and he is also amazed, the straight road here is really the fairy world of refining masters.

In addition to refining materials, the price of things like magic weapons is not high, and they are very distinctive.

The magic weapons and the like seen along the way can be divided into two categories, one is produced in the local Broken Mountain City, and the techniques used are similar to the surface, and they are not in Zhang Fan's eyes, at most they just pay attention to the material.

For Zhang Fan and the bitter Daoists, it is simply a tyrannical thing to use such good refining materials to refine such things.

The other type is different, they are similar to those used by the White Bone True Monarch that Zhang Fan encountered on the surface, mainly using animal bones as the main refining material, and then refining with other metals and other materials.

In this kind of magic weapon, the metal refining material is just an auxiliary, and the main function is to exert the magical power of the beast bone material itself.

In Zhang Fan's eyes, it was obvious that this kind of magic weapon was more interesting, at least some novelty, and the bones of those desolate beasts could not be found on the surface.

After a little inquiry, Zhang Fan learned that these bone magic weapons are all from the nearest giant city-Chongxuan City, so the reason why the two are not far apart is that the exchanges are quite frequent, so this kind of magic weapon can also be called a lot on the ground of the Broken Mountain City, and the price is not high, but the real boutique still has to go to Chongxuan City to find it.

After walking all the way, Zhang Fan has a certain understanding of the prices here.

After all, it is an underground world, and there are many refining materials and minerals, so the price is not enough, and the magic weapons and other things that are refined from this are also affected by it, and the price is relatively cheaper than on the surface.

Pills are different.

Here, the price of the pill can be called a cannibal, and the price of several ordinary pills that Zhang Fan can see during the Qi refining period is above hundreds of spirit stones.

Such an elixir is only a dozen or so spirit stones on the surface of the earth, and there is a high price caused by the difficulty of refining the elixir here, and the other is the problem of spirit stones.

In this underground, there are many more veins of spirit stones than on the surface, and the value of the spirit stones themselves has also been greatly reduced, if it is not for the role of assisting cultivation, I am afraid that it will be cheaper than ordinary refining materials.

In the Inner Earth, the real currency in circulation, which retains its value forever, is something like an elixir.

After knowing this, Zhang Fan also somewhat understood why the old man of Si Xin was so happy that he threw out a bottle of pill before, judging from the price he saw now, that bottle of pill was enough to buy his entire village.

After shopping all the way, the information you want to get is basically clear, and if you want to be clearer and go further, you need to look for it in large stores.

But Zhang Fan was not ready to go again.

He would have been going to go if he hadn't gotten enough information at these stalls, but now he can avoid it.

After all, this place is not Qinzhou, and without the identity of the core disciple of the sect, many things are not so convenient, and there are a lot of scruples out of thin air.

If he was in Qinzhou, he would naturally be able to appear in all kinds of large-scale shops in a grand manner, and he didn't have to worry about the problem of not revealing his wealth, after all, as long as he didn't reveal the treasures above the magic weapon level, those large-scale shops would not take the risk of committing crimes and killing people.

Now, on the other hand, if he is not fully prepared and has complete certainty, he will not take unnecessary risks to step on it.

Just as Zhang Fan was about to leave first, a noisy voice suddenly came into his ears.

"Huh?"

Suddenly looking back, at first sight, Zhang Fan's face couldn't help but show a touch of different color.
