Chapter 810: Gang-Silver Sand

~11 min read 2,082 words

Under Han Li's gaze, the flying knife slashed against the stone wall, erupting with dazzling white light.

Lu Lu Weiying, who had sensed something, changed his expression slightly, reached out to summon, and immediately recalled the flying knife.

Han Li stared intently, only to see a shallow knife mark an inch deep appear where the flying knife had struck, and faint silver light was flickering weakly within the mark.

"This is..." The old man's face showed surprise, and he hurriedly stepped forward a few steps, walking to the knife mark, and observed it carefully.

"Gang-Silver Sand, this stone wall actually contains Gang-Silver Sand raw ore?" The old man only observed for a short while before his voice began to tremble.

Upon hearing the three words "Gang-Silver Sand," Han Li's expression changed greatly. He also walked forward, reached out a finger, and touched the knife mark lightly, carefully identifying it.

Han Li naturally had heard of the material "Gang-Silver Sand." Because it was a type of material that could be added during weapon refining to make magic treasures even more sturdy, it was a rare material second only to "Refining Crystal."

This material itself was also incomparably hard, difficult for magic treasures to cut, and whether in the Chaotic Star Sea or the Tiannan cultivation world, it was an existence on the verge of extinction.

No wonder Lu Lu Weiying's flying knife slashed against it with almost no effect.

Han Li looked at the knife mark solemnly for a while, then suddenly, without a word, raised his hand, and over ten small swords flashing with green light flew out of his sleeve, transforming into over ten green rays that shot directly at various parts of the entire stone wall.

Nan Long Hou and the other were stunned at first, but immediately understood Han Li's intention.

Only a series of "Ding-ding-dang-dang" sounds were heard, and over ten sword holes a few inches deep appeared on the stone wall. Each sword hole also had silver light flickering.

"It is indeed Gang-Silver Sand. And the entire stone wall is mixed with Gang-Silver Sand, but the density is not uniform. It seems it wasn't man-made, but the stone wall itself contains a Gang-Silver Sand vein." Han Li showed a trace of shock on his face, but his voice was calm as he said.

Seeing that Han Li's flying swords could actually pierce sword holes several times deeper than his flying knife on the stone wall, Nan Long Hou and the other's expressions changed slightly.

But Lu-surnamed old man heard this, and greed rose in his eyes, staring fixedly at the stone wall, not saying a word.

Nan Long Hou also had a trace of fiery heat flash across his face, but after pondering for a moment, his expression gradually returned to normal.

"Let's go. Let's go search for treasures in the inner valley first." Nan Long Hou said calmly.

"Leaving now? These Gang-Silver Sands are rare treasures, we might as well knock some off first." The old man hesitated, his face full of reluctance, and said.

"Brother Lu, why are you confused at this time! How hard these Gang-Silver Sands are, didn't you see for yourself just now? Don't look at this as a possible entire vein of Gang-Silver Sand ore; a piece of raw ore the size of a fist can only refine a grain of Gang-Silver Sand the size of a rice grain. How much time will you spend, how much magic power will you consume to cut off enough raw ore? Besides, although this item is precious, don't forget that what we lack now is not these external objects, but spirit herbs that can extend our lifespan and rapidly elevate our cultivation realm. Otherwise, when the deadline comes, we will just be a pile of white bones." Nan Long Hou frowned, glanced at the old man, and said with deep meaning.

Lu Lu Weiying heard Nan Long Hou say this, first stunned, then somewhat suddenly realized, nodding repeatedly.

"Brother Nan Long is absolutely right! I was actually blinded by the treasure for a moment and almost forgot the main purpose of this trip. Many thanks to Brother Nan Long for the reminder." The old man was not an ordinary cultivator. After being reminded by Nan Long Hou, he immediately woke up, his face showing a trace of gratitude as he cupped his fists at Nan Long Hou and said.

Afterward, he didn't look at the stone wall anymore, fearing he would be tempted again, and walked quickly into the cave.

Nan Long Hou's expression finally eased, and he greeted Han Li, following him inside.

Han Li was also incomparably reluctant to part with this entire vein of Gang-Silver Sand, and his footsteps couldn't help but slow down slightly.

Even if his flying swords were mixed with Geng Metal and were far sharper than ordinary flying swords, and he had spirit liquid that could immediately restore magic power, cutting off enough Gang-Silver Sand raw ore was not an easy task. Instead, it was very likely to provoke the jealousy of Nan Long Hou and the other.

Thinking it was really not easy to take action, Han Li could only sigh lightly, and with a heart of regret, followed the two into the cave.

But just at this moment, Han Li's brain suddenly rang with the sound transmission of Da Yan Elder Dayan Shenjun:

"Hehe! To have so many Gang-Silver Sands, the old man searched for a long time back then and didn't find many. It's worthy of being the Fallen Devil Valley! They can be used on the new puppets the old man is developing. Puppets mixed with these Gang-Silver Sands will be invulnerable to ordinary treasures. Take all these Gang-Silver Sands away." Da Yan Elder Dayan Shenjun's voice was full of excitement.

"Take them all away?? Old monster, are you not awake? This is a Gang-Silver Sand vein, not a spirit stone mine. How can I take them all away? Cut them off piece by piece with a flying sword?" Han Li heard this and replied without a good tone.

"Hmph! Since this old man said so, naturally there is a way. Han kid, don't you have many Gold-Eating Insects? I will teach you a spell. You can manipulate the Gold-Eating Insects to drill into the stone wall to swallow the Gang-Silver Sand, and then spit it out to condense into Gang-Silver Sand crystals. This method was obtained from a bug cultivator I killed back then. Not just Gold-Eating Insects, other types of spirit insects can also do this, just not as conveniently as your Gold-Eating Insects." Da Yan Elder Dayan Shenjun had been prepared for a long time and said.

"There is actually such an incantation, good, pass it over. I will immediately let these spirit insects collect the Gang-Silver Sand." Han Li heard this and was both surprised and happy, immediately interfacing and saying. I don't know if it was for the Gang-Silver Sand or the powerful incantation.

"I'll say it first, no matter how much Gang-Silver Sand you get, you must first leave it for me to refine the final puppet. It must not be wasted on other places, and even less can it be mixed into your magic treasures. If there is any left after refining the puppet, you can handle the rest as you please, I won't care at all." Before passing the spell to Han Li, Da Yan Elder Dayan Shenjun said his conditions indifferently.

"It seems the senior doesn't know, my magic treasures don't need to be mixed with Gang-Silver Sand at all, they have already been refined with Refining Crystal. That kind of material is even better than Gang-Silver Sand." Han Li heard this and couldn't help but laugh.

"Refining Crystal? You actually have this heaven-defying material. Is there any left? As long as there is a little bit, I can make great use of it." Da Yan Elder Dayan Shenjun seemed to be stunned for a while, but immediately shouted excitedly, his voice full of wild joy.

"None left? What a waste of heaven's gifts!" Han Li replied indifferently.

"None left? What a waste of heaven's gifts!" Da Yan Elder Dayan Shenjun became extremely disappointed, his mouth full of murmurs of regret.

Han Li heard this and couldn't help but roll his eyes a few times.

Using Refining Crystal on his natal magic treasure, how could it be considered a waste of heaven's gifts? However, he now had requests from the other party, so he could only pretend not to know and listen to a few complaints from the other party.

At this time, Han Li had already followed the two in front into the cave for a distance, and deliberately opened up a certain distance. To prevent the two from discovering his anomaly.

This cave was somewhat dark, but none of the three were people with deep magic power, so as long as they injected a little spiritual energy into their eyes, they could see clearly, and seeing things was no problem at all.

The size of the cave remained the same as at the entrance. The two-colored stone walls were also still that pale yellow color.

On the way, Han Li casually cut the stone wall with a flying sword again.

The result was still a silver-shimmering color. Han Li was somewhat horrified. But the thought of occupying this mineral vein became even stronger.

Han Li walked while listening to Da Yan Elder Dayan Shenjun pass a bug-driving incantation to his spiritual sense.

Although the incantation was composed entirely of ancient texts and was somewhat obscure, under Da Yan Elder Dayan Shenjun's few pointers, Han Li, who already had some attainments in bug-driving techniques, suddenly understood and successfully mastered it.

Once the incantation was passed on, Da Yan Elder Dayan Shenjun's voice fell silent again.

Han Li pondered the incantation again, confirmed there was no error. With a casual flick of his hand toward the storage pouch at his waist, a spirit beast bag disappeared without a trace.

Afterward, Han Li's walking posture didn't change at all. But from his sleeves, one after another golden Gold-Eating Insects flew out, quietly flying toward the path they had come from.

The two people walking ten zhang in front didn't notice Han Li's little tricks at all.

After walking for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the Gold-Eating Insects in the bag were all released.

Han Li's hands hidden in his sleeves pinched a spell, and he formed a spell seal, and his spiritual sense rang with low incantations. And it was transmitted through spiritual sense to the large group of Gold-Eating Insects that had returned to the cave entrance and were floating in front of the stone wall.

The golden insect cloud suddenly shone brightly, and then all the flying insects blurred, and in a swarm, they rushed toward the stone wall, and as a result, they didn't have the slightest obstruction, directly drilling into the stone wall and disappearing without a trace.

The surface of the stone wall looked as if there wasn't a trace of damage.

Han Li sensed this situation with his spiritual sense, and only then did he feel at ease, slightly quickening his pace.

After walking for a while, just as they turned a corner, the two in front stopped. Han Li felt a chill in his heart and hurriedly looked forward.

Only then did the front open up, and the passage became twice as wide.

In this wide passage, strange stones like stalactites were distributed from top to bottom, emitting threads of silver-white light, illuminating the entire passage brightly.

These silver threads were strange, although they were clearly formless, but each thread was clear, as if they had form.

"This is the Arctic Origin Light. Two Fellow Daoists should know some, but I still have to remind you one more time. In the Arctic Origin Light, besides the Two-Yi Rings, absolutely do not move any spiritual power or magic treasures. Once the spiritual power leaking from your body is sensed by the Arctic Origin Light, the three of us will definitely die." Nan Long Hou looked at the silver threads in front and breathed a sigh of relief, saying solemnly. Han Li remained silent, not answering this. But he flicked his sleeve, and a pitch-black ring flew out, circled once, and fell into his palm.

The ring flickered with spiritual light!
