Chapter 1196: Spirit Settling Silver Ore
The Vein Land Imp hurriedly stretched out its hand, and Lin Yuan saw metal ions moving.
Slowly, a ball of metal was formed in Heavy Mountain’s palm.
“I’ve been eating mineral rocks for as long as I can remember. I didn’t need to use my natural skill to create metal. Hence, I’ve only formed a contract with one type of metal.”
Lin Yuan could not help but massage his forehead. This Land Imp had been born with a golden spoon in its mouth, after all.
Heavy Mountain had been living like a god despite living in the dimensional world where danger was omnipresent.
Other Land Imps would be extremely jealous if they heard of its lifestyle.
When Lin Yuan took a closer look, he saw that the metal in Heavy Mountain’s hand was Flame Heart Bronze.
Although Flame Heart Bronze could only be found in the subterranean dimensional rift, it was not valuable and was mainly used to create high-temperature fuel.
Many fire-type spiritual ingredients that came from the abyssal world could be used to replace Flame Heart Bronze.
“Heavy Mountain, since you formed the contract with Flame Heart Bronze when your level was low, you should be able to contract another type of metal now, right?” asked Lin Yuan.
Heavy Mountain nodded vigorously and replied, “Master, yes I can. I can form a contract with another type of metal at any time.”
Lin Yuan patted Heavy Mountain’s shoulder and said, “Without my permission, you are not allowed to change the type of metal you’re contracting. I’ll give you a type of metal spiritual ingredient to use, and you should do your best to produce more of it.”
Heavy Mountain smiled and revealed a mouthful of sharp teeth as it replied, “Master, leave it to me. I’m the best at producing metal.”
It pointed at an area nearby and said, “Master, I can sense a mineral vein about one kilometer in that direction. It’s sending out very strong waves.”
Lin Yuan turned to say to Liu Jie and the Invisible Demon, “Why don’t we go and take a look with Heavy Mountain? There might be hidden precious minerals in the underground mineral vein.”
Liu Jie looked at the Class 2 subterranean dimensional rift and asked, “Lin Yuan, what do you plan to do with this pinnacle Class 2 subterranean dimensional rift? Is Silver Corona’s sea of flowers able to reach this area and surround the pinnacle Class 2 subterranean dimensional rift?”
Lin Yuan sensed the Silver Corona’s current progress before saying with a smile, “Judging from Silver Corona’s current power, it shouldn’t be possible to reach this area that’s 90 kilometers away from where it is. How long can the Web Area Glass Spider maintain its control over this Class 2 subterranean dimensional rift? In two weeks, Silver Corona should be able to reach Gold grade. By that time, its sea of flowers should be able to stretch out to 90 kilometers to the north.”
Liu Jie took out two handfuls of Gold Protein Silkworm Chrysalis and scattered them on the web made by the Web Area Glass Spider.
“If so, I won’t take the Web Area Glass Spider back for another two weeks. These Protein Silkworms Chrysalis are enough to last the Web Area Glass Spider for two weeks. If there really is a mineral vein, I will instruct the Web Area Glass Spider to spin a web long enough to reach it and seal the area off.”
As a member of the Radiance Hundred Sequence, Liu Jie was very aware of the value of a mineral vein. Moreover, there was a chance that this mineral vein could be a large one.
Even if the mineral vein turned out to be full of low-grade or cheap minerals, a large mineral vein’s worth of minerals would still be able to turn over for a tidy sum.
Lin Yuan said happily, “I shall leave the matter in your hands. However, it will require the Web Area Glass Spider to use up a lot of energy. Liu Jie, you can let the Web Area Glass Spider consume the weak dimensional lifeforms currently trapped in the web. Try to consume all of them in less than a month.”
Liu Jie instructed the Web Area Glass Spider to eat the Protein Silkworm Chrysalis as he said to Lin Yuan, “As long as a strong presence doesn’t come and damage the spiderwebs, these Protein Silkworm Chrysalides will be enough. If any dimensional lifeform becomes too weak, the secretions on the spiderwebs will enter the dimensional lifeform’s mouth, and its nutrients will keep the dimensional lifeform going. Moreover, the secretions have healing properties. Once Silver Corona’s sea of flowers reaches this area, all the dimensional lifeforms that have crawled out of the pinnacle Class 2 subterranean dimensional rift during this time will become Silver Corona’s sustenance.”
While they spoke, they arrived at the area that Heavy Mountain had pointed out.
Heavy Mountain had the ability to morph geographical landforms, and it manipulated the ground below its feet to cave in.
The soil stopped caving in once it reached 30 meters deep.
Heavy Mountain reached down and searched the ground with its hands. Soon, it found several pieces of silver mineral rocks that gleamed with a metallic tint.
It returned to the surface with these mineral rocks and presented them to Lin Yuan as it said, “Master, this is the type of mineral produced in this mineral vein. The quality might seem bad on the outside, but once you break into it, the minerals inside will be of better quality.”
Lin Yuan took a look at the mineral rock and realized that it was the Spirit Settling Silver Ore.
When Creation Masters were concocting spirit fluids that they were familiar with or spirit fluids that were concocted with cheap spiritual ingredients would commonly make use of crystal bottles.
Creation Masters would use the bottles made of Spirit Settling Silver instead of the crystal bottles they often used in order to stabilize the spirit fluids and reduce the chances of it failing.
Spirit Settling Silver bottles were sold in the Creation Master Association in the Radiance Federation for higher prices than the market rate.
Spirit Settling Silver did occasionally appear on the market, but they were always bought up by Creation Masters who had connections before they even had the chance to reach Star Web.
Lin Yuan was well aware of this as Creation Masters were all rich and could even afford to buy up many expensive resources such as the Golden Lotus Brocade Pearls.
Thus, there was definitely no issue for them to get their hands on the Spirit Settling Silver bottles.
