Chapter 121
Yin Jiuxiao buried his head in his shoulder and replied in a muffled voice: "I miss you."
Lin Qinghen had already turned around. Hearing this, he patted him, and couldn't help laughing, saying, "Stop making trouble."
Lin Qinghen missed him after not seeing him for more than ten days, but Yin Jiuxiao would not act on impulse. His coming back at this time must have been an accident.
He checked up and down first. Yin Jiuxiao did have some injuries, but they were not serious. He didn't look like he couldn't make it back. Then he asked, "Did you find anything in there?"
No one knows him better than Lin Qinghen.
Yin Jiuxiao stretched out his hand and held the person tighter, breathed a sigh of relief, and then started talking about business.
"I feel like there's something wrong with this relic."
The ruins of the two worlds were different, he discovered that as soon as he entered.
Although he had not participated in the demonic ruins in Beizhou in his previous life, Yin Jiuxiao later investigated the matter carefully. After all, this incident was the main reason for the demise of the Yin family. Now that he had the ability, he certainly wanted to know it clearly.
The team led by Yin Hengxie went deep inside and never came back, but not all the people from the Yin family who had entered the ruins died. Some people with lower spiritual power only explored the outer circle for a few days and returned before anything happened.
Later, something happened in Tear City, and these people fled and wandered outside, but they left with their lives. A few of them were also found by Yin Jiuxiao, who asked about some details of the incident.
There were only a limited amount of things they could remember, but Yin Jiuxiao had asked in person, and he remembered all the details of the conversation clearly.
What was the situation in the ruins at that time and what did they get? These details didn't sound meaningful at the time, but now when I think about them and compare them, the difference becomes clear.
One of the things they said was that the outer circle of the ruins was full of yellow-grade four-star long-tongue grass, which was as long as people's eyes, causing unclear vision and easy chaos. Yin Jiuxiao did see the endless long-tongue grass as soon as he entered, but the height was not above his head, at least one and a half people's height, and definitely not just up to the eyes.
In addition to those people, there was another thing that Yin Jiuxiao was reluctant to think about before.
Yin Hengxie died in that ruins, but did not disappear completely. A few years later, another ruins appeared in Zhongzhou, and Yin Jiuxiao became famous there in one battle. The most important thing was that he saw the residual soul of Yin Hengxie in the later ruins.
Yin Jiuxiao awakened his remaining consciousness and listened to Yin Hengxie's personal stories about his experiences before his death in the Beizhou ruins. He then passed on his remaining spiritual power to him, completing a major transformation for Yin Jiuxiao.
So even though Yin Jiuxiao had never participated in this spiritual and demonic relic, he had a general understanding of it and had a deep memory of it.
Otherwise, his booklet would not have been written in such detail. He had already hinted to Yin Hengxie about the specific location and position of the competition venue.
But as soon as he entered the ruins and saw the long-tongued grass, he felt something was wrong. Later, more and more things were obviously different from his many memories.
According to many people in Beizhou, the ruins were definitely not large. Among the many ruins that appeared in the past hundred years, their scale was only average, so the corresponding output quality was also average.
However, Yin Jiuxiao felt that the scale of the ruins this time was at least medium to large, and definitely could not be called "ordinary", and the resources from all parties proved this.
After entering, he was first surprised by the concentration of spiritual and demonic energy that hit him. Then he walked from the outer circle to the center. The land became larger and larger. He also dug up a lot of spiritual minerals and plants. After careful comparison, he confirmed that this was not his subjective illusion.
In addition to the long-tongue grass, Yin Jiuxiao also purchased the ore produced at that time when he was investigating the ruins. The ore produced in the ruins is generally marked with circles to indicate its quality, so in this life, the ore he turned over from the same circle was obviously of improved quality.
——This time the ruins are actually bigger and better than those in the previous life, and the output in all aspects is also better, and it is much better.
There are indeed differences in many things between these two lives, but there are usually reasons. Similarly, the changes in the spirit and demon ruins are definitely not without reason.
Is it because of delay?
Since he and Lin Qinghen discovered it, this matter has been delayed for four months, which is much later than the time when it was officially opened in the previous life. The mature spiritual and demon ruins have never been delayed to this point before. Most of them were opened impatiently after being discovered.
Comparing my two lives, this is the only thing that can be called a surprise.
Yin Jiuxiao couldn't tell Lin Qinghen about the comparison between the two lives, so he could only vaguely mention it and said that when he first discovered it, he felt that it was just an ordinary-sized one based on his perception, but the aura at the entrance to the ruins changed on the day it was opened.
This is also true. In terms of aura, there have indeed been subtle changes in these few months, but Yin Jiuxiao didn't take it to heart at that time.
He stayed in there for about ten days, and basically confirmed his guess in his mind. Then he had a vague idea, so he came back early to discuss it with Lin Qinghen.
Lin Qinghen sat up from the bed and looked at some of the gains that Yin Jiuxiao brought back. There was everything. Yin Jiuxiao had gone very deep in the past ten days and had obtained many heavenly materials.
Lin Qinghen also quickly understood what he meant.
"You mean, maybe the relics can be raised?"
Yin Jiuxiao nodded and said, "Yes."
The Demonic Ruins have the characteristics of both mineral veins and demonic cracks. With the catalysis of demonic energy, many things grow rapidly. Some people have tried to nurture the demonic cracks before, but there was no way to control them for a long time, and all attempts ended in failure.
The interior of the ruins is dangerous, but its external appearance is much calmer than the evil spirit. However, no one has ever tried to nurture the ruins.
"Now that the ruins are open, what can we do?" Lin Qinghen did not say that he was fanciful, and raised the question very seriously, "Ruins are generally open to the public and will not be occupied by a single force. Now too many people have entered. Even if our three cities unite, we can't control so many people."
"No need to control everyone," Yin Jiuxiao said, "I have a way to directly influence the closing time of the ruins, close it in advance, and then... raise it."
Lin Qinghen stared at him, speechless for a moment.
He was struggling to think about the feasibility of this.
People outside always say that he has strange thoughts. Now looking at Yin Jiuxiao, he feels that the two of them are really crazy together.
Lin Qinghen’s first reaction was that it was impossible.
But these words came from Yin Jiuxiao's mouth. As long as it was him, even if he wanted to poke a hole in the sky, Lin Qinghen would try hard to think about the feasibility and help him achieve it.
But it is true that Yin Jiuxiao was not joking. Like Lin Qinghen, all his seemingly bizarre ideas have a basis.
The closing of the Demonic Ruins comes without warning, but it will not devour people. It will issue an obvious warning before closing, and then kick out all the living people inside when the time comes, like spitting out something that is not to its taste.
The closure time of the ruins is not random, it is affected.
Yin Jiuxiao had passed through too many ruins in his previous life, and he had vaguely sensed some patterns.
When the internal resources of the ruins are consumed to a critical point, the ruins will be unable to bear it and will close itself. This is a recognized law in the spiritual world.
In the previous life, the ruins of Beizhou were opened for only one month before being closed. The main reason was that a large number of people poured in all of a sudden, and there were no rules for a long time. People scrambled for resources like starving ghosts scrambled for food. In less than a month, the outer and middle circles were almost completely looted. Yin Hengxie and his companions had no choice but to go to deeper and more dangerous places.
But the competition in the inner circle was also very fierce. To be exact, Yin Hengxie did not die from the defensive attack of the ruins, but died at the hands of others.
But Yin Jiuxiao knew that there was another point that would affect the closing time of the ruins.
Yin Hengxie's remaining soul recalled that at that time, the major forces in Beizhou were fighting fiercely for a piece of precious land close to the center, and it was at that time that he was seriously injured.
His memory before death was not very clear. It was because everyone was fighting so hard that he seemed to hit something accidentally. He heard a sound of something breaking, and then saw a layer of red light floating around him. When he closed his eyes, he heard a continuous buzzing sound.
This is a sign that the ruins are about to close.
No one had touched that precious land near the center and was still fighting outside, so the ruins were closed, resulting in no one getting any benefit. This is actually not common sense.
Yin Jiuxiao later entered the ruins countless times and confirmed what the unexpected thing that Yin Hengxie mentioned was.
That was the core of the demon ruins.
Some large mineral veins contain mineral cores. As long as they exist, the mineral veins can be buried after mining, and the resources inside can be regenerated over time. However, no one has ever seen the mineral core inside the Spirit Demon Rift, and everyone thinks that it must have been consumed by the demonic energy, but Yin Jiuxiao knows that is not the case.
The mineral core in the Demonic Ruins is still there, but it moves. It is a living thing, and its trace is hard to find. Ordinary people cannot find it.
So he knew that the ruins in Beizhou that lasted too short were closed early, firstly because they were plundered too quickly, and secondly because the mine core was accidentally damaged in the melee near the center.
This thing can truly determine the time when the ruins will be closed.
When Yin Jiuxiao figured this out in his previous life, he was already number one in the spiritual world. He no longer had any desires and did not think about it any further.
After all, even if he knew this, there was no need to do anything. A normal person would want the ruins to last longer, so who would think of closing it down in advance?
But now Yin Jiuxiao’s purpose is different. Connecting all the experiences of his two lives, he has completely different ideas about the ruins.
It is now known that ruins will grow rapidly after they are formed. If the ruins are not completely consumed and they are closed in advance in a way that does not affect the mine core but does not harm it, and then opened at the right time, it may be possible to maintain the ruins for a long time.
Lin Qinghen sat up on the bed, lowered his head and thought seriously, then said: "I understand, you want to achieve sustainable development."
He kept uttering some strange words that he had never heard of before, but they were very appropriate. Yin Jiuxiao thought about it and realized that this was indeed what he meant.
