He first welcomed the three new bigwigs, then asked them questions.
"Of course not."
The knife rack was the first to answer.
"We have already followed the system's instructions, so don't worry."
"You old codger, the moment you open your mouth it's like you're stripping me of my consciousness, how insidious!"
The brush had long ago seen through the meaning of the withered tree and immediately pierced through it.
"Hey, you old codger, you're still alive?"
Qiuqiu jumped out, pointed at the calligraphy brush, and laughed and scolded.
"There's no other way. If you don't suppress your divine senses, you're very likely to be discovered. I have to think about my master's safety."
The withered tree expressed its helplessness.
"Since we have come here, we will recognize him as our master and naturally do our best to serve him."
"Mirror said, her voice as melodious as a silver bell, very captivating."
"How's the situation over there?"
"It's not good. There are still many brothers and sisters struggling to survive."
"For now, all we can do is rest and recuperate!"
Bubbles are rising from the grass on the ground.
The withered tree glanced at the grass.
"Aren't you afraid your owner will treat you like a weed and get rid of you since you're growing so fast?"
"Hehe, I've already put a wisp of spiritual energy into the grass roots. As long as my master doesn't destroy my grass roots instantly, I'll be fine!"
The little grass chuckled.
"Someone's coming!"
The black dog suddenly became alert from its lying position.
He listened intently for a moment, then lowered his ears again.
"It doesn't matter, I'm just a mortal."
"You've become sluggish, Big Black."
A kitchen knife was placed to the side, used to mock the underworld.
At the barrier of the Ancient Desolate Continent, a middle-aged man and a boy broke in.
They wore ten storage rings on their hands, and each carried a large, luminous stone.
He then used his spiritual power to force the light into a line, seemingly searching for something.
"I never expected that such a place could have such abundant spiritual energy."
The boy followed closely behind the middle-aged man and sighed.
"Be careful, it's dark and the road is steep, and such abundant spiritual energy could very well nurture some ferocious beasts."
The middle-aged man gave instructions to the young man.
The two had come to the Water Phoenix Sect as guests the following day, having been invited by them.
I arrived early today to take advantage of the day and see if there are any spirit ore stones waiting to be mined.
Unexpectedly, as they walked, the spiritual energy ahead became increasingly abundant, and before they knew it, they had entered Ye Buxiu's meta-space.
Although the two appeared very cautious on the surface, they were secretly overjoyed.
They came looking for spirit ore late at night because they were forced to work so hard due to the pressure of the competition.
At some unknown time, gem experts from the northern and southern parts of the ancient continent split into two factions, and since then, they have been boasting about how good the gems from their hometowns are.
Later, someone organized a war between the North and the South.
The winner of the rare and precious stones will determine whose skill is superior and whose spiritual mine is more abundant.
As a senior spirit ore processor in the north and a top-notch appraiser, Master Hu was naturally praised by many people for this battle.
Since ancient times, extraordinary places have produced extraordinary treasures.
This trip seems to be going smoothly.
The two continued deeper into the cave, carrying the glowing stones.
"Father, look ahead, there are lights!" Hu Lai said, pointing to the towering, cloud-piercing mountains ahead.
The boy had excellent eyesight and could see the glowing stone placed on the lighthouse of the Firestorm Sect branch even from a great distance.
"It seems to be a reclusive master living here. It's late now, so it's not convenient for us to visit him."
As Hu Gong spoke, he led Erzi Hu Lai toward the lighthouse.
Generally, there are fewer ferocious wild animals in inhabited areas.
If they searched at the foot of the mountain, the probability of encountering ferocious beasts would naturally be much lower.
After walking for a while, Hu Lai tripped over something under his feet and staggered a few steps.
"I told you to be careful, why are you still walking so recklessly?"
Hu Gong gently scolded the hot-blooded young man, saying that he was too young and impetuous and often lacked composure in his actions.
This is a very serious problem for their line of work.
Hu Lai did not explain when scolded by his father.
Instead, he hurriedly looked down at his feet.
"Dad, look what this is?"
Hu Lai turned over the soil and found a shiny white stone inside. He quickly showed it to his father.
"What? Let me see." Hu Gong took the stone that his son handed him.
"This ore contains abundant spiritual energy."
As soon as he took it over, Hu Gong realized that this thing was not simple.
Could it be that my luck is really that good? I've only been out for a short while and I've already found such a treasure!
He had his son hold up the glowing stone while he carefully examined it with both hands.
"Judging from the material, it should be Feather Stone, but the spiritual energy of this stone in our area is far less than that of this one."
"If carefully carved and polished, it can become a superior spiritual treasure."
Mr. Hu was quite confident in his skills.
"Go look again and see if there are any more of these stones around here!" Hu Gong instructed excitedly.
Yes.
And so, the two of them groped around in the dark until dawn, when they were sure there was no danger in the area before continuing on their way.
At this time, in another place.
The Empire of Songpo.
Jiu'er pushed open the screen window to welcome the first ray of sunlight of the day.
"It's about time to go back, or your master will worry again."
When Jiu'er's martial uncle, Nie Feng, knocked on the door to bring her breakfast, he also gave her some instructions.
