A day later.
Shen Daoyuan quietly arrived at the White Jade Market and made a secret handover with Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
This time, the couple didn’t want to alert anyone that they would temporarily leave the White Jade Market.
They only instructed Shen Daoyuan to be careful of the people from the Pure Treasure Pavilion. Once those people caused trouble, they did not have to hold back. They could activate the array formation in the market to teach them a lesson.
Of course, it would be best if nothing happened during this period of time.
Shen Daoyuan had been guarding the market all year round, so he was quite street smart. When he heard this, he immediately nodded solemnly and said, “Don’t worry. I know what to do.”
“Okay, then I’ll leave the matters here to Brother Daoyuan.”
…..
The two of them cupped their hands at Shen Daoyuan and did not linger any longer. After they concealed themselves, they left the White Jade Market and flew towards the Crimson Gold Mine.
Two days later.
At the entrance of the mine.
Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Shen Daoming, and Xu Qianhe were already gathered here.
At this moment, the four of them had already investigated the entrance and surroundings of the mine carefully.
After confirming that the coast was safe, Shen Daoming looked at everyone and said,
“Let’s enter the mine together and explore it.”
“Ok!”
Jiang Chengxuan and the other two had no objections.
However, before they officially entered the mine, Xu Qianhe took out a few array discs from his bag and placed them at the entrance and the surrounding areas.
Doing this could temporarily hide the mine.
After doing this, the four of them officially entered the pure gold mine.
As soon as they entered the mine, Jiang Chengxuan and the others felt the extremely active and rich fire elements around them.
Dark red light flickered.
Jiang Chengxuan and the others could clearly see that above their heads, on their sides, and even under their feet, there were red rocks. From time to time, flames would spark out.
When the spark landed on the protective True Essence around them, it immediately made a sizzling sound.
However, It was not a threat to them.
This was only due to the fact that they were cultivators.
At this moment, if a mortal came in here, even the strongest martial artist among mortals would instantly be turned to ashes by the flames and temperature.
They walked forward for a distance.
Jiang Chengxuan and the others more or less had a few dark red stones of different sizes in their hands.
Apart from the extremely high temperature, the surface of these stones was also covered in a layer of metal-like luster.
It was the specialty of this mine, Crimson Fire Gold!
However, the quality of the crimson fire gold they had picked up was not too good. At most, it was only mid-grade Level 1.
Perhaps it was a good treasure for Qi Refinement cultivators, but it was by no means a treasure for them.
They continued to walk forward for a distance.
In front of Jiang Chengxuan and the others, monsters of all shapes and sizes suddenly appeared. They were like pythons, eagles, tigers, leopards, and humans.
However, without exception, they were all surrounded by a layer of dark red flames and exuding a cold and murderous aura.
It was the demon that occupied the mine, the Crimson Fire Fiends!
These Crimson Fire Fiends clearly had no intelligence.
As soon as they saw Jiang Chengxuan and the others, they targeted them and charged at them mechanically.
Seeing this, Jiang Chengxuan and the other three reacted and immediately fought back.
In the blink of an eye, they killed these Level 1 Crimson Fire Fiends.
In the end, the four of them continued forward.
As they went deeper, the quality of the gold in the mine continued to increase. The strength of the Crimson Fire Fiends that appeared in front of them also became stronger.
By the time they killed the Level 2 Crimson Fire Fiends, Jiang Chengxuan and the other three had already arrived at the core area of the mine.
They could see that in the center of the core area, there was a dark red mound that was hundreds of feet tall.
There was lava-like liquid flowing around the mound, as if it was alive.
“That is…”
A look of shock appeared on Xu Qianhe’s face.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Daoming immediately turned to look at him.
Shen Daoming said, “Elder Xu, do you know what this mound is?”
Xu Qianhe nodded with a solemn expression.
“If I’m not wrong, the dark red mound in front of us should be the Crimson Fire Volcano.”
“Crimson Fire Volcano?”
“Yeah.”
Xu Qianhe nodded again.
“It’s said that any crimson gold mine that has the Crimson Fire Volcano has the possibility of eventually growing into a large-sized crimson gold mine.
At the very least, it can become a medium-sized gold mine.
Of course, this is not the most important thing. Most importantly, with the Crimson Fire Volcano, there is a certain chance that the mine can nurture a Crimson Fire Crystal every 300 years.”
“Crimson Fire Crystal?”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Daoming’s expressions changed when they heard this from Xu Qianhe.
As everyone knew, the best item that could help cultivators break through to the Violet Palace Realm was none other than the Violet Cloud Jade.
It could help cultivators increase the probability of breaking through to the Violet Palace Realm by nearly 50%.
At the same time, it could protect the cultivator’s body and soul. Even if he failed to break through, he would not be greatly damaged. He only needed to rest for a few more years to attempt a second try.
However, apart from that, there were five other spiritual items within the scope of the five elements that could help cultivators break through to the Violet Palace Realm.
They were the wood-element Azure Dragon Wood Crystal, the fire-element Crimson Fire Crystal, the earth-element Earth Spirit Earth Crystal, the metal-element White Emperor Gold Crystal, and the water-element Black Tortoise Crystal.
Although they were not as powerful and effective as the Violet Palace Jade, they could also increase the probability of a cultivator breaking through to the Violet Palace Realm by 30%.
If the cultivator had a Purple Violet Pill, he could definitely try to aim for the Violet Palace Realm.
Even if he failed, with the protection of the Purple Violet Pill, he would not die.
Moreover, these five different spiritual items were also extremely precious materials.
They could be used as the main materials to refine mid-grade or even high-grade Level 3 Dharma Artifact.
The first thought that came across Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Daoming, and the others’ minds was that the Shen Immortal Family was going to be rich this time.
The second thought was that the true secret of this mine must be kept confidential at all costs.
The Crimson Fire Crystal was a genuine Level 3 spiritual item.
Furthermore, it was the best kind among the Level 3 spiritual items.
Even if someone at the Violet Palace Realm saw this, they would be tempted to snatch it.
Therefore, no matter what, the Shen Immortal Family had to protect this mine..
