Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Facing this pressure, Xu Zhangqing did not retreat.

For now, Qi Refining Middle Stage could indeed withstand it.

There was pressure, but it was not great.

It had not reached an unbearable point.

As he walked, a signboard appeared ahead.

Four large characters on it: 【Di Mai 1st Layer】.

A line of small text below: (Every 100 meters down +1 layer).

Unexpectedly, having gone this deep, it was only Di Mai 1st Layer.

After much thought, Xu Zhangqing took out the Communication Talisman from his Small Storage Bag.

He had originally planned to communicate with Hu Man again.

But the signal was not good.

Several consecutive attempts all ended in failure.

"Forget it, we'll talk after I take care of things." Xu Zhangqing put the Communication Talisman away again.

Afterwards, he continued downward along the passage.

Every 100 meters deeper, +1 layer.

Soon he reached Di Mai 10th Layer.

Converted to depth, a full 1000 meters.

This was not calculated from the ground, but after descending into the deep pit.

That is to say, the true depth definitely exceeded 1000 meters.

The heavy pressure had already made Xu Zhangqing sweat slightly.

But fortunately, he was not Qi Refining Middle Stage.

But Qi Refining Late Stage.

With more Spiritual Power to support him.

When he reached Di Mai 10th Layer, the view ahead suddenly opened up.

No longer a dim passage.

But a spacious underground world.

Xu Zhangqing continued forward, his whole person coming onto the Zhandao at the cliff's edge.

Any step to the left would mean falling into the Abyss of Ten Thousand Zhang, meeting a death by falling.

He could only press against the cold rock wall on the Right to ensure safety.

Strangely, this underground world was not pitch black.

But glowed with multicolored light.

Xu Zhangqing barely made out the scene in the distance.

Continuous undulating mineral veins, like sleeping Earth Dragons.

Some were white Dragons.

Some were yellow Dragons.

The parts exposed Outside were at least several hundred zhang in length.

From time to time, a wisp of Yellow Mist drifted from the corners Inside.

If he listened carefully, "ding ding dang dang" sounds came from the depths.

"This... is the Spiritual Vein?" Xu Zhangqing felt a strong visual impact.

This was completely different from the 【Spiritual Vein】 he had imagined.

He had originally thought it was one mine tunnel after another.

Unexpectedly it was this kind of scene.

A full 1 minute passed before he recovered from the shock.

Then he continued downward along the Zhandao.

【Di Mai 11th Layer】

【Di Mai 15th Layer】

【Di Mai 18th Layer】

He finally arrived at his destination.

But the pressure now was extremely heavy.

Every step left a clear footprint on the Ground.

Huff puff!

Huff puff!

Xu Zhangqing panted heavily as he took out the Communication Talisman again.

Soon, its Surface began to flash with light.

Following the guidance, he came before a rock wall.

At first glance, there was nothing here.

As Xu Zhangqing approached, it opened with a "Boom—".

Instantly, a spacious interior space came into view.

If I'm not mistaken, this should be Hu Man's Cave Abode.

If the other party stayed here every day.

It meant enduring immense pressure at all times.

Any other Spiritual Root simply couldn't endure it.

All that can be said is, as expected of an Earth Spiritual Root, he does have some ability.

Xu Zhangqing swept his gaze and discovered that the target he needed to care for this time was on the other side of the Cave Abode.

There was a spring eye there.

What emerged from within was not spring water, but Earth Qi.

They surged upward endlessly, then rippled outward.

Gradually turning into a yellowish-brown lotus flower.

Obviously, this was the Earth Surge Lotus.

"Does this count as a Lingti?" Xu Zhangqing sat cross-legged with doubt, then released his own Spiritual Power.

It is well known that different Spiritual Roots absorb different Spiritual Energy.

Therefore, the Spiritual Power within the body also possesses different attributes.

Xu Zhangqing was a Wood Spiritual Root, operating Wood Spirit Power.

After being released, it emanated a light blue radiance.

When injected into the Earth Surge Lotus, the original yellowish-brown began to fade.

Gradually rendering into a green lotus, emitting dazzling Spiritual Light.

At this moment, Xu Zhangqing surprisingly discovered.

The aura released by the Earth Surge Lotus had already shifted from earth to wood.

One side was Wood Spirit Power.

One side was Earth Qi.

Between them, not only was there no rejection, but they gradually fused.

Gradually, it transitioned from its original Gas State to becoming substantial.

But next, no matter how much Xu Zhangqing input his own Wood Spirit Power, there was no further change.

It seemed he could only tend to this point.

Or perhaps it had reached the current threshold.

Afterwards, he gradually reduced the input of Wood Spirit Power bit by bit.

Finally severing it completely.

However, the Earth Surge Lotus still maintained the state of the green lotus, showing no signs of receding.

As if it had already been set.

"It should be fine." Xu Zhangqing climbed up from the ground.

He did not linger.

Not even glancing at the things around him.

He walked directly toward the outside of the Cave Abode.

The moment the person came out, the cave mouth closed immediately.

Seamlessly, as if it had never been opened.

One Hour later, Xu Zhangqing returned to the bottom of the Kengdong.

After coming out, the heavy pressure covering his body instantly decreased by more than half.

The whole person felt as if a great burden had been lifted.

Shan Fei asked with a half-smile: "Out?"

Xu Zhangqing lowered his head to examine himself: "Why haven't I turned yellow?"

Shan Fei shrugged: "You haven't Awakened an Earth Spiritual Root, so you cannot bear Earth Qi."

Xu Zhangqing suddenly understood.

So those Earth Spiritual Root Disciples had yellowish skin.

It turned out to be because they bore Earth Qi within their bodies.

"If there's nothing else, hurry up and go." Shan Fei urged him.

Xu Zhangqing waved his hand: "No rush."

He took out Hu Man's Communication Talisman again.

Inputting a Yi Lu of Spiritual Power.

Sure enough, the signal here was unaffected.

"Hello?"

"Hu Senior Brother, it's me, Xu Zhangqing!"

"How is the situation?"

"I've already finished tending to the Earth Surge Lotus."

"So fast?"

"But..."

"But what?"

"Gotta pay more!!!"

Xu Zhangqing is not someone who suffers a loss and just endures it.

From the Spirit Field to the Spiritual Vein, and then one up and one down.

Every time it consumes two hours, that is, four hours.

If it's just:

(Points 1 day +10)

(Remuneration 1 day +10 pieces Low-grade Spirit Stone)

Then what's the difference from an ox or horse worked to death.

"Paying more is fine." Hu Man, hearing this, wasn't surprised at all, not even caring.

The Earth Surge Lotus in its gas state is fundamentally not a Lingti.

Only after Spiritual Power of different attributes is infused will it materialize.

It will transform into various forms such as Green Lotus, Fire Lotus, Water Lotus, etc.

The price per plant is currently 50 pieces Middle-grade Spirit Stone.

Converted to Low-grade Spirit Stone, that's a full five thousand pieces.

But not only that, this is also one of the main materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill.

If made into Pills, the price then multiplies five times.

A single one requires 250 pieces Middle-grade Spirit Stone.

Therefore not afraid of the other party paying more, anyway he has profit to earn.

Of course, cultivating this Earth Surge Lotus isn't simple either.

Just forming takes three years, almost every day one must irrigate with one's own Earth Spiritual Power.

Until in the gas state it transforms into a lotus flower, only then can conversion proceed.

However, Xu Zhangqing's next words directly stunned him.

"Points 1 day +100!"

"Remuneration 1 day +1 piece Middle-grade Spirit Stone!!!"
