Lu Ping's reminder came clearly into Zhang Nianchuan's mind.
"Thank you, ancestor, for reminding me."
When Zhang Nianchuan heard this, he looked stunned for a moment, then quickly recovered and responded.
I actually forgot about this.
Zhang Nianchuan still understands the principle of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots.
Zhang Nianchuan moved his green bamboo sword through the air and fell into the forest.
The mountain forest seemed very quiet, with only some birds and insects chirping lowly, and there was no trace of large monsters within a radius of more than ten miles.
The sunlight casts down from the lush branches and leaves, sprinkling mottled silhouettes on the ground. The air is filled with the fresh fragrance of grass and trees, and the smell of blood is almost negligible.
Zhang Nianchuan found Zhao Zicang's remains, groped around on his body carefully, and quickly put away Zhao Zicang's storage bag.
In terms of magic weapons, except for the magic weapons in the storage bag, all the magic weapons that Zhao Zicang had used were broken by Zhang Nianchuan and turned into scrap metal, so naturally they have no value for collection.
Whoosh.
Zhang Nianchuan cast a fireball technique and burned Zhao Zicang's remains on the spot. This was the most common method used by immortal cultivators to dispose of enemy corpses.
After the corpses were destroyed, Zhang Nianchuan used the flying sword again and returned to the black lake. He found Zhao Zicang's lair on an island in the middle of the lake.
It was a loft built on an island in the middle of the lake. Normally, due to the protection of the guardian array, the traces of the loft would be obscured by fog.
After the protective formation was broken by Zhang Nianchuan, the scene on the island in the center of the lake became clear.
There was silence on the island in the middle of the lake. Zhang Nianchuan used his spiritual consciousness to explore the area, but found no trace of monks or spiritual beasts. Apparently, Zhao Zicang lived here alone.
Zhang Nianchuan spent some time and conducted a careful exploration. He found nothing valuable on the island in the center of the lake. They were all stored in Zhao Zicang's storage bag, so there was nothing to pay attention to.
It is worth mentioning that although nothing was found on the island in the center of the lake, Zhang Nianchuan made a discovery in the Black Lake.
In the Black Lake, a kind of spiritual fish with golden scales is cultivated. There are many in the Black Lake, at least one hundred.
This kind of spiritual fish is most eye-catching with its golden fish scales and has a pair of golden fish boys.
Unlike other spirit fish, it has no dorsal fin.
Because of these strange appearance features, Zhang Nianchuan looked at it with great interest, but he did not recognize what kind of spiritual fish it was.
This was his first time seeing it.
"This is the Golden Back Scale Armor."
Noticing Zhang Nianchuan's confused and curious look, Lu Ping took a few glances at the fish swimming in the black lake and told the origin of these spiritual fish.
"Golden Back Scale Armor..."
After hearing the voice transmission, Zhang Nianchuan murmured to himself. Looking at the appearance of the fish, the golden scales on the back of the fish were particularly eye-catching, so he felt that the name was very appropriate.
But Zhang Nianchuan still didn't know what the Golden Back Scale Armor was, so he asked Lu Ping out of curiosity.
"The golden-backed scale is a type of second-order spiritual fish. It comes from the snowy plateau in the northern part of Lingxi Prefecture. This species of spiritual fish is very rare and belongs to Danshui fish. It wouldn't be surprising if you don't know it."
"In addition to the edible value of golden-backed scales, the golden scales on their bodies can be used to refine second-level defensive magic weapons. Fish eyes are also very good weapon-refining materials and can be used in the refining of second-level magic weapons."
Lu Ping introduced.
Compared to the green-tailed spirit fish and three-eyed spirit fish cultivated by the Qingshan Sect, the value of this golden back scale is much greater.
Green-tailed Spirit Fish only has food value and can be sold to earn Spirit Stones.
The three-eyed spirit fish has edible value and is sold at three times the price of the green-tailed spirit fish. Its eyes can be used to refine the second-level middle-grade elixir Ming Jing Dan.
The Mirror Pill can greatly improve a monk's eyesight, matching the practice of some spiritual prodigy-like skills.
And this golden-backed scale armor is superior to the green-tailed spirit fish and the three-eyed spirit fish in terms of grade alone. The price of selling a single one is within the market price of Chu country, which requires at least two hundred spiritual stones.
According to the Black Lake, these one hundred or so golden-backed scales are worth about 20,000 spirit stones, which is equivalent to two foundation-building pills.
But in Lu Ping's opinion, these golden-backed scales are not measured by spiritual stones.
If the Qingshan Sect is brought back for breeding, it will not only add a new sect resource to the Qingshan Sect, but also open up a weapon refining industry.
According to Lu Xuelian's current knowledge of animal training, she is capable of breeding these golden-backed scales.
After learning about the potential value of the golden-backed scales, Zhang Nianchuan's face showed joy. It was an unexpected surprise to discover these spiritual fish.
He and Lu Ping discussed how to deal with these golden-backed scales.
According to Lu Ping, if Zhang Nianchuan wanted to take it for himself, he wouldn't say anything. These golden-backed scales also belonged to Zhang Nianchuan's trophies, and the Qingshan Sect had no reason to take them from his disciples.
However, Zhang Nianchuan was very generous.
"Ancestor, it's better to bring these golden-backed scale armors back to the sect together. Breeding them in Yanyang Lake, I think is the best choice."
In fact, the second-level magic weapon is not very attractive to Zhang Nianchuan at present.
He carries several second-level magic weapons, as well as third-level magic weapons.
Moreover, if he plans to sell all these golden-backed scales in Xiuxianfang City, Zhang Nianchuan believes that with the strength he has just established, doing so may cause unnecessary trouble.
Selling so many gold-backed scales is probably too ostentatious, as if you were passing through a busy city with gold in your hands.
There is really no shortage of more than 20,000 spiritual stones for Zhang Nianchuan at present.
Ever since his adventure in Shuimudongtian, Zhang Nianchuan's net worth has ranked first among the disciples of the Qingshan Sect.
Now he just wants to keep a low profile as much as possible.
It would be better to give these golden-backed scale armors to the sect to help the sect develop, so that it will also be beneficial to yourself when the sect becomes stronger and stronger in the future.
After learning Zhang Nianchuan's thoughts, Lu Ping nodded and looked at Zhang Nianchuan with a hint of appreciation.
After discussing the destination of the golden-backed scale armor, Zhang Nianchuan did not rush to return to the Qingshan Sect, but stayed at the Black Lake and looked at the golden-backed scale armor.
If he didn't care about the life and death of the golden-backed scales, he could certainly do the job of catching fish.
What we have to do now is to bring these golden-backed scales back to Qingshan Sect without any damage.
Zhang Nianchuan believes that catching fish needs to be done by professionals.
Therefore, he wanted to call Lu Xuelian over.
Lu Ping took on the task of communicating and pulled Lu Yuanshan into the audio channel.
"Yuanshan, ask Lu Xuelian to bring some people over."
Lu Ping informed Lu Yuanshan about the capture of the Golden Back Scale Armor and its location.
After Lu Yuanshan heard the order, he sent Lu Xuelian down the mountain that day, straight to the Black Lake next to the upper reaches of the Chu River, and began the task of capturing the Golden Back Scale Armor.
