Chapter 120: Secret Treasure in the Mountain! Fire Spirit Rock Mine!

“Butler Liu, come to my place.’lf Yang Chen’s guess was correct, this should be where the treasure was.
Yang Chen immediately called out to Butler Liu.
There might be some danger in this cave, so Yang Chen didn’t dare to barge in.
After a dozen breaths, Housekeeper Liu arrived. After sensing for a moment, his eyes lit up.” Chen Clan Leader, 1 can sense a fire attribute aura. Clearly, the treasure should be here.””
Then, the two of them entered the cave one after another.
As he did not know if there was any danger hidden in the cave, Butler Liu walked very cautiously. His spiritual energy spread out and surrounded Yang Chen.
In case of danger, he would be able to rescue them in time.
They walked straight into the cave and soon saw a red light.
Seeing this, the two didn’t dare to move. After a while, they took a few steps forward.
After confirming that there was no danger for the time being, the two of them quickened their pace.
Only after entering deep into the cave did one see clearly what the red light was.
In front of the two of them was an exposed spirit stone mine.
Unlike ordinary spirit stones, this spirit stone mine was fiery red in color. The red light was emitted from this spirit stone mine.
“This is…Fire Spirit Rock?” Housekeeper Liu’s eyes lit up. He immediately broke off a spirit stone and after carefully comprehending it, he said in surprise,”It really is a Fire Spirit Rock. Chen Clan Leader, we are going to be rich this time.” Yang Chen came to Butler Liu’s side and asked with some doubt,””Housekeeper Liu, what is this Fire Spirit Rock?”
When Butler Liu saw this, he came to a realization and said,”Chen Clan Leader’s talent is unhindered. I’ve forgotten that you’re only from a ninth-rank aristocratic family. It’s normal that you don’t recognize the Fire Spirit Rock.” “The Fire Spirit Rock is a variant of the Spirit Stone. It contains pure Fire Spiritual Qi and is extremely attractive to martial artists who cultivate Fire Spiritual Arts.”
“This Fire Spirit Stone is ten times better than ordinary spirit stones for martial artists who cultivate fire attribute cultivation techniques.”
Yang Chen understood. So that was what happened.
The cultivation techniques in this world were divided into non-attribute cultivation techniques and attribute cultivation techniques.
Cultivating a cultivation technique with its own attributes would transform the spiritual energy in one’s body into the corresponding attributes. Compared to a cultivation technique without attributes, the lethality was much higher.
However, there was a disadvantage to attribute cultivation techniques. One could only learn martial arts of the corresponding attribute. As for an attribute-less cultivation technique, there was no such restriction.
As for whether an attribute-less cultivation technique or an attributed cultivation technique was better or worse, it would depend on his actual situation.
Back to the main topic.
After learning that the treasure was a Fire Spirit Rock, Yang Chen asked again,””Steward Liu, can a martial artist without attributes absorb Fire Spirit Rock?”
The Chen family’s Ten Thousand Beast Technique was an attribute-less cultivation technique. If it could absorb the Fire Spirit Rock, there was no need to resell it. It could be used directly to cultivate.
“No.” Butler Liu shook his head.” Fire Spirit Stones are not like Wood Spirit Stones and Water Spirit Stones. The Spirit Qi contained in them is relatively mild and can be absorbed by non-attribute martial artists.”
“The spiritual energy contained in the Fire Spirit Rock is extremely violent. If a martial artist without an attribute absorbs it, his meridians will be broken if he is not careful.”
“Is it that serious?” Yang Chen took a deep breath of the hot air. It seemed that he couldn’t save time. He had to sell it anyway.
“Chen Clan Leader, 1 want to investigate the scale of this Fire Spirit Rock. You should be careful.”
Steward Liu sat on the ground with his eyes closed. He placed his right hand on the Fire Spirit Rock mine and began to investigate the scale of the mine.
Seeing this, Yang Chen continued to size up the cave.
The Fire Spirit Rock mine was not at the end of the cave.
With the help of the red light emitted by the Fire Spirit Rock, Yang Chen walked step by step into the deepest part of the cave.
“What’s that?”
After walking for about ten minutes, Yang Chen chanced upon a black shadow.
Immediately, Yang Chen mobilized his spiritual energy and broke off a piece of Fire Spirit Rock. With the light of the Fire Spirit Rock, he approached the black shadow step by step.
It was only when Yang Chen got closer that he saw it clearly.
This so-called black shadow was actually a human skeleton.
This skeleton was missing its sternum. Looking at the bone powder on the ground, Yang Chen made a judgment.
There must have been an expert who had smashed this person’s sternum into powder. Perhaps this person had died in this place because of this.
“Hmm? Then what is it?” There seemed to be a person standing behind the skeleton.
However, there was no one else in this place.
Immediately, Yang Chen cautiously approached the “person” and saw his face.
“This is a puppet?”
Yang Chen sized up the puppet and his eyes lit up.” It’s really a puppet. It’s not easy to see something like this in Da Qian.””
Puppets belonged to a type of spirit weapon, but puppets were extremely difficult to refine. Even if it was a puppet that only possessed Qi Refining strength, it was still a grade eight spirit weapon.
Furthermore, the blueprint of a puppet was extremely hard to come by. There were only a few blueprints of puppets in the entire Da Qian Empire.
As for the blacksmiths who could refine puppets, they could be counted on one hand.
As a result, the price of puppets in Da Qian was extremely high. A puppet at the peak of the Qi Refining Stage cost 1,000 Spiritual Stones, and as for opening meridians, it ranged from 1,000 to 10,000 Spiritual Stones.
As for a puppet with Core Formation strength, it was even more expensive.
It could be said that in Da Qian, these puppets were no longer tools to guard the house, but a luxury item.
The nobles were proud to bring puppets out.
“It’s a pity that this Puppet is a bit too damaged. 1 wonder how much battle prowess it can unleash.”
The puppet in front of Yang Chen was smashed into pieces. If it wasn’t for the skeleton supporting it, it would have been smashed into pieces.
“Eh? A puppet?”
At this moment, Steward Liu, who had just finished his investigation of the Fire Spirit Rock ore vein, arrived and saw the puppet at a glance.
Yang Chen saw Butler Liu and quickly asked,””Butler Liu, do you know what level this puppet is?”
Upon hearing this, Butler Liu carefully sized up the puppet and immediately exclaimed,”It’s actually a Core Formation stage puppet, and it’s a puppet that has no records of Da Qian.”
“Condensing the core?” Yang Chen’s eyes lit up, then dimmed.” What a pity. The puppet is already so damaged. I wonder how much of its strength it can still unleash.””
“Chief Chen, you can’t say that. Compared to the value of this puppet, its strength is nothing.”Butler Liu said with a smile.
“Oh, what do you mean?” Yang Chen looked at Butler Liu.
When Butler Liu saw this, he quickly explained,”Clan Leader Chen, you should know that our Da Qian is in urgent need of puppet blueprints.
Although this puppet was broken, its foundation still existed. Wasn’t it a wonderful blueprint?”
“If we sell it, those Armament Masters will definitely go crazy over it.”
“In that case, let’s keep it and let my master sell it.”Yang Chen smiled.
“That’s how it should be.” Butler Liu said.
Immediately, Yang Chen put away the puppet and buried the skeleton. After doing all this, the two of them quickly rushed to Yi City.
The next day, at night, Yi City, Deshun County Prince’s Mansion.
As he listened to Chen Yang talk about his gains, the Deshun Commandery Prince smiled and said,””I didn’t expect you to find so many treasures.”
“Fire Spirit Rock mine, puppet. Either one of them was enough to drive a Rank-7 force crazy.”
“It’s also fortunate that you cooperated with me. If your Daoist Priest Dao Xuan knew, no matter how much he likes your ancestor, he would have told the Beast Tamer Sect.”
“At that time, your Chen family might not even be able to drink the soup. After all, these two things were precious even if it was a mouthful of soup.”
When Chen Yang heard this, he smiled and looked at Deshun Commandery Prince.” That’s right. We still have to cooperate with Master on this kind of matter. No matter what, Master will leave a mouthful of soup for our Chen family to drink, right?””
“Brat, you don’t need to say that.” The Deshun Commandery Prince laughed.
The Commandery Prince of De Shun thought for a moment and came up with a distribution plan.” My disciple, the cultivation technique that I cultivate is a fire-attribute cultivation technique, so I’ll take all the Fire Spirit Stones.”
“As for this puppet, I’ll give it to your Chen Clan. At the same time, I’ll make the Weapon King of Da Qian owe your Chen Clan a favor.”
“Let the King of Weapons owe my Chen family a favor?”Yang Chen was puzzled.
The Weapon King was the only Grade Six Weapon Craftsman in Da Qian. Even Human Kings had to give him face.
It was harder than ascending to the heavens to make the King of Weapons owe him a favor..
