Inside the underground palace.

Seeing that she was getting farther and farther away from the exit, Jiang Deng naturally would not sit still and wait for death. She decisively injected her spiritual consciousness into the rudder, trying to control the direction of the spirit ship.

Sure enough, after one person was missing, her spiritual consciousness was finally able to establish a connection with the spirit ship.

Jiang Deng's hands were not idle at all. He grabbed the rudder and twisted it around, finally changing the direction of the spirit ship.

The spirit ship no longer drifted backwards, but moved towards the exit.

After successfully passing the exit and going deeper, I found that this place seemed to be a dark and deep underground cave, which stretched endlessly and led to nowhere...

After a long time, although still in the underground cave, a platform finally appeared in front of Jiang Deng where he could land.

Controlling the spirit ship to dock at the shore, Jiang Deng stepped ashore.

The next moment, Danqing's voice rang in his ears, "Jiang Deng, congratulations on finding the exit of the underground palace, successfully leaving the underground palace, and passing the sixth level."

Hearing this, Jiang Deng couldn't help but excitedly asked, "Since I've passed the level, what rewards do I get?"

Danqing seemed speechless for a moment, "...What reward do you want?"

Jiang Deng pointed at the spirit ship whose shape perfectly matched her aesthetic taste and said excitedly, "I think this spirit ship is pretty good. Give it to me!"

"...As long as you're happy."

"Are you really giving it to me?" Jiang Deng was a little hesitant to believe it. "Are you really not lying to me?"

Danqing said coldly, "If you don't acknowledge me as your master, I will regret it."

"Don't!"

Jiang Deng hurriedly thrust her spiritual consciousness deep into the spirit ship, imprinted her own spiritual mark on it, and successfully made the spirit ship recognize her as its master.

Next, at her strong request, the spirit ship gradually became smaller, and finally became only the size of a palm, and was smoothly put into the storage bag.

good!

Jiang Deng nodded with satisfaction. This is a lower-grade spiritual weapon of the heavenly rank. He is rich!

"What's the next level?"

After putting away the spirit boat, Jiang Deng looked up in the direction where Danqing's voice came from.

"You've arrived," Danqing's cold voice continued, "Seventh level, open the door - Spirit Stone Mine. You are now at the deepest part of the underground mine."

Jiang Deng's eyes lit up in surprise.

Open the door!

Isn’t this one of the three auspicious gates?

Moreover, Ying Yubing, whom she met in the land of spiritual beasts, told her that the special thing about the spiritual stone mine is that the ground is full of spiritual stones and you can pick them up at will. It’s really rich!

"You need to collect ten top-grade spirit stones within twelve hours. If you complete the task, you can take these ten top-grade spirit stones away."

Top-grade spirit stone?

Jiang Deng's eyes lit up again. One top-grade spirit stone is equivalent to one hundred high-grade spirit stones, which means that ten top-grade spirit stones are equivalent to one thousand high-grade spirit stones!

You can take away so many spirit stones just by picking them up. This is much easier than robbery!

This is not a task, it's clearly a welfare distribution!

"Okay, no problem!" Jiang Deng said in a firm tone: "When do we leave?"

"Right now."

As soon as Danqing finished speaking, a white teleportation array appeared under Jiang Deng's feet again, and runes kept flashing. Jiang Deng had already memorized the runes of five teleportation arrays, so naturally he didn't dare to miss this one.

After a while, Jiang Deng felt dizzy and successfully moved from the underground location of the mining area to the top of the mining area.

Jiang Deng looked around and saw countless mines hidden among the layers of mountains. It seemed that as long as he went to a mine, he would be able to find the spiritual stones hidden in it.

On the ground beneath his feet were some scattered low-grade spirit stones. Although they were only low-grade spirit stones, Ying Yubing was right. The ground was really covered with spirit stones!

Jiang Deng was very excited and couldn't wait to start the task.

At this moment, the rune on her wrist lit up, indicating that there were disciples of the Taichu Sword Sect nearby...

Jiang Deng decisively injected the power of chaos into the communication rune, "Hello, hello, is anyone there? Can you hear me?"

The next moment, a voice with a hint of surprise came from the rune.

"Master Jiang Feng? Master Jiang Feng, is that you?"

"Hey, Wen Yan?" Jiang Deng raised an eyebrow and asked, "Are you alone?"

"Well, my mission is different from everyone else's, so I'm going to act alone."

Jiang Deng asked curiously, "What's your mission?"

"I need to find three top-grade spirit stones."

"What a coincidence! I'm also looking for top-grade spirit stones. Which mine did you enter?"

"I am here……"

Jiang Deng entered a mine according to the direction indicated by Wen Yan.

The mine was not as dark and deep as Jiang Deng had imagined, because the surrounding stone walls were embedded with many low-grade spirit stones, which emitted a faint light like night pearls, illuminating the way forward.

Not long after Jiang Deng left, he met Wen Yan in the mine.

I saw Wen Yan squatting in the corner of the mine, holding his blue spirit beast egg in his arms.

Jiang Deng raised an eyebrow and said admiringly, "Junior Brother Wen, you really love eggs so much that you even remember to hatch them while doing your mission."

"No, Master Jiang Feng, you misunderstood."

Wen Yan shook his head and explained with a bitter smile, "This spirit beast egg of mine is from a lower-grade heavenly beast, a tracking viper. It has a keen sense of smell and can find natural treasures within a radius of a hundred miles."

"Because the top-grade spirit stones here are so hard to find, I've searched several mines but couldn't find any. So I have no choice but to pin my hopes on this one. As long as it hatches, I'll be able to find the top-grade spirit stones."

"Then when will it hatch?" Jiang Deng asked quickly.

"I feel like it should hatch within the next few days, but it always seems to be missing the finishing touch. It seems like there's something missing for it to hatch."

At this point, Wen Yan sighed, "I don't know what's missing, but I know that if it doesn't hatch, my mission time will expire and I won't be able to pass this level."

Looking at Wen Yan's dejected look, Jiang Deng touched his chin.

Hatching eggs?

She remembered that after completing her mission in the land of spirit beasts, she obtained the Stone of Life that could speed up the hatching of spirit beast eggs.

At that time, she put the Stone of Life and the big black egg together, and she didn't know whether the big black egg had hatched after so many levels had passed.

Thinking of this, Jiang Deng hurriedly looked at his own space. The big black egg still looked like an indifferent dead egg. As for... the stone of life?

Jiang Deng took out a white stone the size of a fingernail from the space. It came out the same way it went in, and the aura on it was not reduced at all.

In other words, the Stone of Life, which is known as a sharp tool for hatching eggs, has no way to deal with the big black egg.

There's a high probability that Big Black Egg is actually dead, right?

Otherwise, if even the best natural treasures can't hatch it, what does it want? It can't be a divine natural treasure!

The egg skin is almost black, how can you still be so eager for good things?

Suppressing the complaints in his heart, Jiang Deng handed the Stone of Life to Wen Yan.

"I guess your spirit beast egg can't hatch because it lacks some vitality. Let's try this and see if it works."
