When the clan members began to dig in full swing, Li Changzhi was suspended in mid-air, guarding against possible changes in the treasure ship.
After all, there is a golden elixir stage monk who has been dormant here for hundreds of years. Although he is dead now, there may be some back-ups left by him in there.
This was also the reason why he had not allowed Li Qingshu to enter it for detailed investigation.
...
This cave was dark and humid, and there was still a fishy smell when we first entered. Li Xuangang then used the spell of Qingfeng to lighten the smell.
Li Xuanyu, who was following him, walked a certain distance and then quickly caught up with him, walking side by side with Li Xuangang.
"Brother Ninth."
"Huh?" Li Xuangang responded without stopping, observing the surrounding environment.
Li Xuanyu scratched his head in embarrassment and said:
"Brother Ninth, do you still remember that book we bought together in the Hengduan Mountains that can increase the speed of casting talismans?"
Li Xuangang thought about it for a moment, then remembered the matter and said:
"What's wrong?"
Li Xuanyu became even more embarrassed and said:
"Originally, we agreed to refine a second-level talisman for Ninth Brother, but when I returned to Taiqiu Mountain, Ninth Brother, you had successfully established the foundation. I think about the value of a second-level low-grade or medium-level talisman to Ninth Brother.
It's of no use at all, so I want to refine a second-level high-grade one. This will be of some use to Brother Ninth."
"But I may not be talented enough in the talisman department. Until now when I met Brother Ninth again, I still haven't been able to refine a second-level high-grade talisman."
Li Xuangang was stunned. He didn't expect that Xuan Yu would still remember the unintentional words he made back then.
A smile appeared on his face and he said:
"Actually, for me, there is not much difference between a second-order high-grade talisman and a second-order low-grade talisman."
Li Xuanyu thought about the strength displayed by Ninth Brother Li Xuangang a quarter of an hour ago, and found that it was indeed the case.
Just when he was about to say something, Li Xuangang had already started walking deeper into the cave again, and at the same time, his long words reached Li Xuanyu's ears.
"How about this, when Xuanyu becomes a third-level talisman master, you can help Brother Jiu refine a third-level talisman for free?"
Li Xuanyu was stunned for a moment, then quickly caught up and nodded to Li Xuangang.
The latter patted him on the shoulder and immediately put the matter down.
...
This cave is actually not very deep, and the two of them had already reached the end within half a quarter of an hour.
Looking around, I found nothing special here, except...
"Brother Ninth, come here and see what this is?"
After hearing this, Li Xuangang walked next to Li Xuanyu, who was pulling out a huge python skin from a pile of rubble. To be precise, it was a stripped python skin.
"I don't know how many years this sea python has been cultivating here. It's not surprising that there is one. I'm looking for other places, maybe there is one!"
Li Xuangang looked at the python skin and then said.
Li Xuanyu nodded, folded and put away the third-grade python skin material, and started looking for it elsewhere.
But the two searched for half an hour, but found nothing. It seemed that there really was just such a python skin here.
When they got together, they exchanged a few words and then prepared to leave.
A piece of peeled skin from a third-level peak sea python is also a good harvest. Whether it is used to refine magic weapons or draw talismans, the finished product can at least reach the third level.
But just as they were about to leave, Li Xuanyu said casually:
"Brother Ninth, do you feel that it's much colder here than outside?"
Li Xuangang's legs that were still walking suddenly stopped when he heard these words, while Li Xuanyu on the side had not yet reacted and was walking on his own.
After realizing that Ninth Brother Li Xuangang had stopped, he turned around and looked at him.
"Well... Brother Ninth, did you discover something?"
Li Xuangang dispersed his consciousness and returned to the deepest part of the cave.
As he walked, he said:
"It is indeed colder here than outside. Xuanyu, you have reminded me, why is it colder here than outside?"
Li Xuanyu followed again.
"There is nothing here. How come that sea python has stayed here for hundreds of years and refused to leave? It's weird."
Finally, Li Xuangang and Li Xuanyu stopped in front of a huge green gang stone.
The surface of this piece of green granite has many traces left over from years of friction, with irregular arcs intertwined in circles.
Looking at these arcs, both of them could guess that this should be the place where the sea python usually resides.
"Brother Ninth, is there a problem here?"
Li Xuanyu asked. He also spread his consciousness, but except that he felt a little colder when he got closer, he didn't feel anything.
But Li Xuangang's mouth curved slightly and he said with a smile:
"You'll know right away if there's a problem here."
After saying that, a layer of light blue scales appeared on his arm, and he punched the huge green stone in front of him.
This piece of turquoise stone was just an ordinary stone, so it naturally couldn't withstand Li Xuangang's attack.
In an instant, countless cracks appeared on its body. Li Xuangang raised his hand and heard a "crack" sound. The huge green stone fell apart, revealing what he had originally covered up.
This is a roughly square piece of dark blue ore, about two feet long, one foot wide, and one foot high.
A trace of cold white vapor is still emanating from its body!
Li Xuanyu didn't know this kind of ore, but that didn't hinder his most basic understanding: this is a high-level ore material!
Li Xuangang stretched out his right hand and pressed it against it. Immediately, a bone-chilling chill was transmitted from the ore into his body.
Li Xuangang showed an expression that was indeed true. He took his hand back, and a ball of flame dissolved the frost on his hand, and then he spoke to Li Xuanyu:
"This object is called Xuanhan Mingyu. It is a third-level high-grade ore that can refine weapons and assist monsters or monks who practice cold-attribute techniques."
"It seems that this is the reason why the sea python is willing to stay here for so long."
"Third-level top grade?" This was the first time that Li Xuanyu came into contact with such a high-level material at such a close distance. He wanted to reach out and touch it, but Li Xuangang immediately stopped him.
Li Xuanyu's cultivation level is too low, and the cold energy emitted by this piece of Xuanhan Mingyu will hurt him if he is not careful.
Therefore, after hearing Li Xuangang's reminder, Li Xuanyu immediately retracted his hand and turned to look carefully at this third-grade high-grade ore.
The shape is almost regular, and although the dark blue it emits is monotonous, it is not rigid. Instead, it looks like a faint feeling. And it not only shows this color, it also reflects this faint blue, dyeing the surrounding area with frost.
The rocks are all illuminated with a layer of light blue.
While watching, Li Xuanyu took a few steps back.
And Li Xuangang activated the Qing Ling Demon Transformation Technique, covering his entire upper body with a layer of light cyan scales. Then, he walked forward, shouted loudly, and carried the piece of Xuan Han Ming Jade on his shoulders.
Then, he and Li Xuanyu walked out of the cave.
...
When Li Xuangang and Li Xuanyu reappeared in front of everyone in the Li family, the seventh uncle Li Changzhi was leading them to make some preparations for the excavation.
This treasure ship is too heavy. In order to prevent the hull from falling and breaking when the excavation is halfway through, some special formations need to be arranged to help the hull return to a level state smoothly.
These arrays are prepared in advance, so it doesn't take much time to set them up.
However, when Li Xuangang walked out of the cave carrying the piece of Xuanhan Mingyu, all the tribesmen temporarily put down the formation disks in their hands and turned their attention to him.
Li Xuanshan's round face was full of shock, and he murmured to himself:
"If you sell such a large piece of high-grade ore, how many spiritual stones will you ask for?"
Li Xuankun, who was standing next to him, glanced at him and then said:
"Such a large ore family won't sell it. It will probably be sealed in the warehouse of Shanggong Hall."
At this time, Li Xuangang also walked up to everyone, shook his shoulders, and threw down the huge piece of Xuanhan Mingyu.
Because the latter was so heavy, one-third of it sank into the sand the moment it was thrown down.
Li Changzhi also covered up the trace of joy in his eyes and walked around the piece of Xuanhan Mingyu several times.
He is a third-level weapon refiner and has seen a lot of high-level ore materials, so he quickly recognized the type of this ore.
When he asked Li Xuangang how he got it, Li Xuangang smiled and said:
"I read a lot of miscellaneous books in the library before, otherwise I really wouldn't have found any trace of this Xuanhan Mingyu."
Then he recounted what had just happened.
And Li Changzhi also knew the characteristics of Xuanhan Mingyu, an ore, which is that it does not have any breath other than emitting cold air. If a monk does not know this, it is really easy to miss it.
While everyone in the Li family was still immersed in this piece of Xuanhan Mingyu, Li Xuanyu had already taken out the peeled python skin of the huge sea python.
This is also a third-level material!
Li Xuanshan on the side looked straight in his eyes and kept sighing: If I had known better, I would have followed Brother Ninth in!
