Qin Ruo couldn't describe her mood at this time, and was pacing back and forth in the room excitedly.
"What's going on?" Bai Lin asked.
"There is energy in this black crystal, energy that can assist the cultivation of soul power. I was so stupid that I thought the black crystal was useless." Qin Ruo felt that he was an idiot. As a currency in circulation, how could the black crystal be so simple.
"It can be used for cultivation. Does that mean we need the black crystals infinitely?" Bai Lin asked.
"It's not necessarily true. Although this thing can be absorbed, I think it's not of a high level. That means it has the same properties as the Lingquan Pool and can only be used by Heavenly Warriors. It's the same as the True Yuan Pill and the Pei Yuan Pill.
At this stage, Bai Lin, you have also cultivated the power of the soul, try it." Qin Ruo opened a black crystal again with both hands and said to Bai Lin.
Bai Lin tried it and shook her head.
"Is your soul power in gaseous form?" Qin Ruo asked.
"Well, yes." Bai Lin nodded.
"Then we are one level behind. The power of my soul is in liquid form, which means that only the liquid level can absorb the energy in the black crystal." Qin Luo said.
"Then we have to hurry up and earn Mo Jing." Bai Lin felt oppressed.
"Everyone should be busy with what they are doing. I will ask Gong Yangyu later about the origin of the black crystal in Zongheng City. If there is a black crystal, there must be a black crystal mine." Qin Ruo thought about it and said.
Qin Ruo calmed down for a moment and felt that there was little point in looking for Gong Yangyu. It was better to look for Gong Yanghan. Gongyang Han knew much more than Gong Yangyu. Regardless of age or experience, they were not on the same level.
Qin Ruo came to the Alchemy Pavilion and saw Gong Yanghan in Gong Yanghan's study who had come out for some fresh air after practicing.
"Uncle San." Qin Ruo greeted.
"With Yuan Dingtian retreating, Zongheng City will be much safer. You can practice steadily. Alchemy and weapon refining are important, but cultivation is the foundation of a cultivator." Gongyang Han said to Qin Ruo.
"Uncle San, I came here today to ask you something." Qin Ruo took out a bottle of wine and took out two bags of side dishes from the storage ring and placed them on the table.
"If you have anything to say, let's see if Third Uncle knows." Gong Yanghan said after taking a sip of wine.
"Mo Jing! How long has Mo Jing been circulating in Zongheng City? What should I do if it is lost?" Qin Ruo asked.
"The average person really doesn't know that Mo Jing has been circulating for at least thousands of years. Every twenty years, a batch will be distributed in the form of welfare, such as repairing the city wall, repairing the roads in the city, building some public facilities, and workers' benefits.
The wages for wages and materials are all paid by the city lord's mansion, which is equivalent to increasing the circulation of Mo Jing." Gong Yanghan said.
"So it turns out that Mo Jing is managed by the City Lord's Mansion?" Qin Ruo was thinking about the source of Mo Jing now.
"Yes, the seven elders and three city lords of Zongheng City, Mo Jing are managed by these ten people. Did you find any problem?" Gong Yanghan asked.
"Yes, there is nothing wrong with the black crystal itself. Today I dropped one and broke it. I found that there is energy in it, which can assist in cultivation." Qin Ruo simply did not hide it.
"You can absorb the energy in the black crystal. Is it true what the predecessors said?" Gong Yanghan stood up and looked at Qin Ruo.
"What did the predecessors of Third Uncle say?" Qin Ruo was very curious about what the predecessors of Zongheng City said.
"Predecessors said that absorbing black crystals to practice is a process. If you can't absorb it, it means your level is not enough. This is not a secret. Most people in Zongheng City know this. Otherwise, how can black crystals be circulated? Of course, at present,
No one can absorb it yet." Gong Yanghan said.
"No one can absorb it?" Qin Ruo was surprised. In an instant, Qin Ruo understood that no one here could cultivate the power of the soul to a liquid state. He had cultivated it to a liquid state because of his skills and the help of elixirs.
Without the Void God Pill, it would be impossible to cultivate to this level.
"If you can use black crystals to practice, you have to work hard to earn it." Gongyang Han said.
"What about the origin of Mo Jing?" Qin Ruo asked.
"There is a black crystal mine. I can't say anything about it next. This is the foundation of Zongheng City. It is an absolute secret just like the red crystal mine in Lianheng City." Gongyang Han said.
"Thank you, Third Uncle, I understand." Qin Ruo nodded.
Everyone has their own bottom line and what they stick to. Gong Yanghan's relationship with Qin Ruo is good, but it cannot be compared with Zongheng City and the Gongyang family.
"Only you can absorb it now. Be calm. Don't tell anyone about this matter. I don't know anything today." Gong Yanghan said.
"Third Uncle, this is a bottle of elixir left by my master. I gave it to Third Uncle. Thank you Third Uncle for taking care of me." Qin Ruo took out a bottle of Xuanling Pill and handed it to Gong Yanghan and left the pill.
Medicine Pavilion.
"People who can absorb the energy of black crystals to practice have appeared, but they are not people from Zongheng City." Gong Yanghan sighed.
Qin Ruo returned to the mansion and told the girls about the situation.
"We are outsiders. The Black Crystal Mine is the foundation of Zongheng City. It is normal for Gongyang Han not to tell you. Being able to keep it a secret for you is already the limit." Bai Lin said.
"I understand, that's it. Let's do business first and collect black crystals. I will practice first to see the effect and see how many black crystals are needed to advance. If a large amount is needed, then we will think of other ways." Qin Ruo said.
"Work hard to earn black crystals. Although we can't use black crystals to practice at the moment, we will definitely be able to use them in the future," Bai Lin said.
Qin Ruo took out the False God Pill and handed it to Bai Lin, "Take this and practice. Xiangzi has no soul power foundation, so there is no need to take this path. Bai Lin, you also use the False God Pill to practice, you have**
With the help of Qigong, you can cultivate spiritual energy quickly, and your soul power has also been cultivated. Logan, do you want to cultivate it?"
Qin Ruo needed Tang Wan to make his own decision. After all, practicing spiritual energy and soul energy together would waste a lot of energy.
"I still major in Reiki." Logan thought for a moment and said.
"Okay, then I'm going to practice." Qin Ruo said and went to practice.
When not refining weapons or elixirs, Qin Ruo would practice spiritual energy and soul power together.
After practicing for three days, Qin Ruo absorbed 10,000 black crystals. The black crystals that had absorbed the energy turned white and turned into powder when rubbed with his hands.
After thinking about it for a while, Qin Ruo came out of the practice room and felt that if he wanted to practice from the liquid state to condense the divine beads, he would need at least seven to eight million.
"How is it?" Bai Lin asked.
"It's okay, we really need a lot of it," Qin Ruo said.
"The second restaurant is about to open, so we can earn more income." Xiangzi said.
"The management of the Treasure Hunting Pavilion needs to change its thinking. Common Peiyuan Pills, Tongluo Pills, Hemostatic Pills, and other uncommon pills can be exchanged for Black Crystals. Zhenyuan Pills and Qingxuan Pills can be exchanged for materials and weapons.
Something like that, mid-level treasures and high-level treasures are exchanged for materials, and others are also sold with black crystals." Qin Ruo made a decision.
"Smoke crystal mine is the root cause." Xiangzi said.
"It's hard for us to get access to the black crystal mine. If we do something wrong, I'm sorry to Mr. Three." Qin Ruo nodded.
"Is it difficult to cultivate the power of the soul?" Tang Wan asked.
"You should follow suit! It's okay to practice slowly. It's better to have a solid foundation. It's up to you whether Xiangzi practices or not." Qin Ruo said to Tang Wan.
"I don't practice." Xiangzi said.
"Okay, let's cook. Let's all cook. It's a shortcut to celebrate." Qin Ruo waved his hand and said with a smile. He didn't want his breath to be depressed.
Drinking is indispensable for eating. After drinking, Qin Ruo took a few girls to the street, mainly to relax.
"Actually, it's easy for us to make money. If we go back to China to make some money, it's like robbing the black crystals. Not to mention, one-third of the black crystals in Zongheng City will be absorbed by us." Tang Wan said.
"It's troublesome to go back and forth. Besides, it's not appropriate to do that." Qin Ruo shook his head.
"Don't worry, we are still far away from the time when we need Mo Jing to practice. Mo Jing can take his time." Bai Lin said, she knew how difficult it is to practice from the gaseous state to the liquid state.
"Yes, we are too anxious." Qin Ruo said with a smile.
After figuring it out, Qin Ruo felt that he had put too much pressure on himself, and he could do this slowly. At least he had a treasure hunting pavilion and two restaurants, which were all means of absorbing black crystals vigorously.
When I arrived at the Treasure Hunting Pavilion, I told Zhao Zhengming and Liu Chengjun my decision.
As soon as this decision was made, both of them agreed. This was the real business, and it was a suitable management method for both casual cultivators and the family.
After all, some people have black crystals, and some people have materials. The current business method is suitable for all aspects.
At this time Gongyang Yu came.
"Are you enlightened? My black crystal made you enlightened. It's not easy." Gong Yangyu said with a smile.
"When will the new restaurant open? Let me tell you, I really like Mo Jing now." Qin Ruo said half-jokingly.
"It's going to be a few days. I just settled the accounts of Lingyan Tower for the past few months. This is a bonus of 1.2 million. I've deducted it from the third floor." Gong Yangyu handed Qin Ruo a storage item.
ring.
"Mr. Liu, don't make the price of weapons too low. Scarce things are more valuable." Qin Ruo didn't care before, but now that he needs them, of course he won't sell them cheaply.
"Don't worry, boss. The restaurant managed by Master Yu is profitable, and our Xunqi Pavilion is not bad either. As long as there are black crystals available for purchase, one or two million will only take a day or two." Liu Chengjun said with confidence.
"That's enough. Brother Yu will come to my mansion for a drink some other time. Let's go." Qin Ruo waved his hand and said.

Yuan Dingtian was unwilling to leave Zongheng City. After thinking for a while, he rushed towards the Chiyan Gorge in the north of Zongheng City.
In Zongheng City, the absolute top management knew that the most powerful person in Zongheng City was not the city lord but the Supreme Elder. However, the Supreme Elder never returned to Zongheng City and always guarded Chiyan Gorge.
Because Chiyan Gorge is the location of the black crystal mine, the currency in Zongheng City.
