After dealing with everything outside, Jiang Yuebai returned to the underground stone chamber where she was temporarily staying and left eight space restrictions around her, forming a large space formation to completely hide the area where she was.
Even if a demon accidentally entered this place, it would pass directly from one end of the stone chamber to the other, and would not feel that there was a part missing in the middle.
Moreover, she had studied the map carefully. This was an area with few mineral veins. The demons had no intention of occupying the mineral veins for a long time. They just wanted to take away as much as possible now, so they dug in places with dense minerals.
Jixiang's entire family joined the battle, and with its eight cubs, they dug frantically in the corner of the stone chamber, trying to open a path to the lower level of the rich mining area.
The demons were digging on the upper level, and she simply cut off the source of the trouble.
Jixiang and the rats don't have to dig out the Taixuan gold mine directly, they just need to dig out a passage.
The flower-haired mouse was clearing the rubble on the side to ensure that the passage was unobstructed. Two dragonfly demons brought two gray-haired monkeys and carried the excavated slag to Jiang Yuebai and Bai Jiuyou.
Jiang Yuebai created three clones, and together with Bai Jiuyou, the five of them worked together to transform the dragon armor puppet soldiers.
After simply smelting the ordinary Taixuan gold in the slag, engrave armor-piercing runes on it to increase its sharpness. It is then refined into a pickaxe and installed on the improved dragon armor puppet soldier, temporarily turning it into a mining puppet.
Taixuan Gold is one of the ten main materials currently known in the upper realm that are most suitable for making metal magic weapons, and it ranks in the top five.
Taixuan Gold is excellent in terms of hardness, sharpness, and affinity with spiritual energy, and it can be smelted with any material without considering the five elements, and is widely loved by cultivators from all walks of life.
It is precisely because of this characteristic that these golden demons can directly devour Taixuan Gold to enhance their own abilities.
Taixuan gold is hard, and the earth demons in the foundation-building stage have to hit it many times to break off a piece. She uses a Taixuan gold pickaxe to dig Taixuan gold, which perfectly solves the problem.
Anyway, there is Taixuan Gold everywhere here, and you can "eat" it after using up the pickaxe, so it's not a waste.
Jiang Yuebai also added a small teleportation array to each dragon armor puppet soldier to make it easier for them to teleport the excavated Taixuan gold ore directly to the small teleportation array in the corner of the stone chamber.
The Five Elements Lotus Platform was suspended above the small teleportation array. When there was no more space, Jiang Yuebai could simply move his spiritual sense and store all of them on the lotus platform.
It took five days for all three hundred dragon-armored puppet soldiers to be transformed, and Jixiang and his men had already dug to a depth of one thousand feet. It would take the demons above one or two months to dig to the location where her mining puppets were.
"The mineral veins here are so rich." Bai Jiuyou couldn't help but sigh.
Jiang Yuebai put the pile of Taixuan gold into the lotus platform. This mine was indeed very rich for her personally, but it was not much considering the needs of the entire upper realm.
Therefore, the Taixuan gold outside is still a high-priced and scarce material, and the talents of the Tianqiang world must take back this mine at all costs.
"We have to hurry up and dig. Taixuan refined gold is too hard to find. We may have to dig to the core of the entire vein to find some. That True Demon in the Spiritualization Stage is still staring at the core of the vein."
"I'd better use the second method at the same time and refine the Taixuan gold myself. From the Taixuan gold we have dug out now, it would be considered a lot if we can refine one catty. My new spear head needs nine hundred and ninety-nine catties, nine ounces and nine cents. Not a single drop can be missing."
Hearing this, Bai Jiuyou's head buzzed, "Then if you want to refine it yourself, you have to hollow this place out, right?"
Jiang Yuebai sighed, "That can't be helped. Jixiang is still digging and searching, but I can't rely on it completely. What if Taixuan Jingjin doesn't appear here? It takes at least 10,000 years for that thing to appear. Or if it existed before, what if someone dug it away early?"
"So I'd better make preparations for both situations. I will refine it with my main body and three clones together, and try to finish it within a month. If I can't finish it, I will dig more first. Anyway, I can sell it for spirit stones if I don't need it."
Bai Jiuyou stood up and yawned. "Let me go back and feed the spirit beasts and spirit insects first. I have only just gotten used to raising them, so I can't give up halfway. I will come back to help you when I am done."
Jiang Yuebai nodded and sent Bai Jiuyou back to Liantai Cave Heaven. Fortunately, Bai Jiuyou's personality was like hers. He was diligent, studious and motivated, and he could always help at critical moments.
Jiang Yuebai and his three clones took out a piece of black Taixuan gold as big as their heads, and with the same movements, they placed their right hands under the Taixuan gold and directly activated the Phoenix True Fire and the Netherworld Ghost Fire to burn them together.
Although Taixuan Gold does not have the five elements attributes, it is still metal in essence and can be burned by a strong enough fire.
Taixuan refined gold overcomes the weaknesses of metals and can be called the strongest metal material in the world.
Therefore, the method of refining Taixuan refined gold is very simple, which is to burn it. The stronger the fire, the higher the refining efficiency and the higher the purity of the refined gold.
The Phoenix True Fire and Netherworld Ghost Fire in her body, one yin and one yang, combined were extremely powerful. In just two breaths, they burned a ball of Taixuan gold as big as her head into liquid.
With the continuous output of the two kinds of fire, the liquid Taixuan gold continued to evaporate and became less and less.
The little mice resting in the corner smelled the Taixuan Gold, squeaked, raised their noses, and began to swallow the Taixuan Gold that had turned into gas, taking it into their bodies without wasting any of it.
After a while, all the Taixuan gold in the hands of the original body and the three clones was burned out, and no Taixuan refined gold was extracted.
Jiang Yuebai held his forehead with his hand, his mood ups and downs, just like when he used the beast soul to refine his essence.
Full of confidence before refining, breathing heavily during refining, and miserable after refining!
"continue!"
At this time, Bai Jiuyou's anxious voice was transmitted from the Lotus Cave.
"Jiang Yuebai, come in quickly, something big has happened!"
Jiang Yuebai's heart skipped a beat and he hurried into the Lotus Cave.
There were howling winds around the Hidden Immortal Mountain, and demonic energy was rampant at the foot of the mountain. The original animal pens and insect houses were all destroyed. A large number of green-armored bees gathered into a green cloud, and were fighting fiercely with the demon octopuses on the ground.
Bai Jiuyou drove away the affected spirit beasts, holding the little Leihu with bared teeth and covered in electric arcs in his arms. He stood in mid-air and watched the fight between the Green-armored Bee Swarm and the Demon Octopus from afar, with insect corpses scattered all over the ground.
Jiang Yuebai stared in surprise. Didn’t she surround all those demon octopuses at the outermost part of the entire cave and set up an array with spirit stones to separate them
She used her divine sense to explore the original place, and it was also a mess. The formation was violently destroyed, and there were some small black particles left on the ground, which seemed to be...
Rat shit?!
Jiang Yuebai used her spiritual sense to wrap up a black rat dropping. She knew it was auspicious without thinking. She had let it guard the group of demon octopuses before.
But this shit was a little unusual. The concentration of turbid air inside was extremely high. She simply wrapped it with her spiritual sense and hung it in front of her. The turbid air on it could not be suppressed and corroded her spiritual sense, making her feel an extremely violent and murderous emotion.
Jiang Yuebai suddenly realized and looked at the group of crazy magic octopuses again. She guessed that they had eaten auspicious shit and destroyed her formation, and came here to kill them.
Jiang Yuebai rushed over, sacrificed the Yuan magnetic ruler, and used the Yuan magnetic black sand to forcibly separate the magic octopus and the green-armored bee colony.
In just a short while, the hundreds of thousands of green-armored bees in her Lotus Cave were almost killed or injured. There were originally three queen bees, but now there is only one left, with a few hundred remnants.
Those sticky, liquid-like octopuses quickly devoured the insect corpses on the ground. When two of them wrapped the queen bee's corpse into a ball the size of a longan, they suddenly became quiet and began to inhale and exhale the surrounding demonic energy.
Bai Jiuyou carried the little Leihu closer, and when he saw the two strange balls clearly, his eyes lit up.
"Jiang Yuebai, these are new insect eggs!"
