Mine Vein
Lei Xuanyu did not provide an error message.
Relying on the information that Gu Jinlai had specially obtained during his trip to Zilei City, Zhan Tianpeng found out the general outline of Leici Yuanjin in less than half a day.
Three days later, he further explored the size and yield of this Leici Yuan gold vein.
This is a vein that, if fully mined, could yield tens of thousands of units of Thunder Magnet Gold.
Upon arriving at this value, Gu Jinlai have been unable to help but take a deep breath.
"Although the boost from the Thunder Magnetic Essence to me is no longer as significant after the Chaos Star Body is perfected, if I can really refine these tens of thousands of Thunder Magnetic Essence, my combat power will definitely increase considerably... Among the True Immortals and Demon Gods, I would be considered one of the best."
This Gu Jinlai.
"Lord of the City, although there is a huge vein of Thunder Magnetic Gold here, it is buried deep underground and is very difficult to excavate. We need to devote a lot of manpower and resources, and it will take a long time to dig out this Thunder Magnetic Gold."
Zhan Tianpeng, who had just finished his survey, offered a reminder.
"Manpower, material resources..."
Gu Jinlai pondered, "If we were to mine at maximum speed, even mobilizing tens of thousands of martial artists, how long would it take to extract these tens of thousands of portions of Thunder Magnetic Essence?"
Three years!
Zhan Tianpeng said, "Even if we mobilize 30,000 martial artists to mine, it will still take three years. As for more martial artists, it won't make much difference, as the mine area may not be large enough to accommodate that many people."
He paused, then continued, "If we use destructive mining methods, we can compress the time to within two years, but in that case, the amount of Thunder Magnetic Gold we can ultimately obtain will probably be much lower."
"Then let's use destructive harvesting."
Gu Jinlai said, "I will design some tools to speed up the mining process. You can see if you can reduce the time to one year."
"One year..."
Zhan Tianpeng said with a wry smile, "Actually, there's not much difference between one year and three years. If we stay on this land for several months, the Demonic Beasts will quickly realize what we're doing. Even if they don't dare to come and reclaim the lost land, just sending all sorts of digging Demonic Beasts to harass us will cause us huge trouble and seriously affect our mining progress..."
"I will handle the problem of Demonic Beasts."
Gu Jinlai calmly said, "Next, you should go back and have Liu Feiyun and the others assist you in gathering manpower to mine the Thunder Magnetic Essence here."
After saying that, he added, "Bring more people, as we will need to accommodate quite a few humans to settle in Flowing Fire City."
Zhan Tianpeng saw that the minds of Gu Jinlai had already made up their minds.
Considering the rumors circulating about him, and his supposedly supreme power as a Void Divine Ability, he finally replied, "Yes."
Gu Jinlai, people have gazed into the distance.
He could never return the Blackfire Demon Emperor's territory.
To secure control of this mine, a major battle is inevitable.
He needs to be careful about the degree of this, Demonic Beasts the remaining three or five demon gods all turn their attention to him at the same time.
Even though his current strength is vastly different from what it used to be, and he even has a certain degree of confidence in fighting the Demon God, but...
Fighting three or even five opponents at once is beyond his capabilities.
"There are two ways to solve this problem. One is to exploit the time difference, to max out the Spirit Technique and the Creator's Inheritance as quickly as possible, to merge them into a complete 'Three Realms' Cultivation Method, and to rapidly elevate it to a level that can significantly enhance combat power..."
Gu Jinlai, one can imagine the sheer amount of light required to achieve this step...
My scalp tingled.
A golden Cultivation Method requires four to five hundred streams of pure light to progress from beginner to mastery.
Some even cost five or six hundred.
And the orange-colored Cultivation Method...
It starts at least at three thousand.
He wouldn't be surprised if it ultimately cost four or five thousand, or even five or six thousand beams of light.
He obtained a total of four or five hundred Qingguang in Wind and Rain City, but that was because Wind and Rain City itself was quite chaotic.
This can be seen from the fact that even Wind and Rain City was specifically mentioned by the Holy Dynasty.
If it weren't for the fact that Wind and Rain City itself had such serious problems that they couldn't be covered up, why would the Holy Dynasty have sent a special envoy?
Compared to Wind and Rain City, Flowing Fire City, Purple Thunder City, and Hai Wind City, while also possessing darkness, are much more restrained.
Of the less than four hundred beams of clear light accumulated throughout Gu Jinlai, less than half were provided by Liuhuo City. The rest were mostly due to the fact that many criminals from Liuhuo City had "escaped" to surrounding cities. When he was hunting down those fugitives, he also dealt with those who had protected them, which involved about ten cities.
If he truly wanted to gather enough Qingguang to fill the "Three Realms," he would probably have to rule the entire Holy Dynasty.
"Although ruling the Holy Dynasty is not impossible, it would take too long. And during that time, if the Demonic Beasts end the war with the Immortal Kingdom and the departed demon gods return, the situation will definitely deteriorate rapidly."
It is clear in my heart, Gu Jinlai.
In this situation, the second method is the only option.
Let the experts of the Holy Dynasty participate in the war.
"And if we want the Holy Dynasty to join the war... we must give them hope of victory. In other words, I am a pawn used to test the Demonic Beasts' true strength, and I must truly find out the Demonic Beasts cards."
This Gu Jinlai.
Although being pushed up by the Holy Dynasty was somewhat uncomfortable, but...
Considering that what he is doing now is also fighting for humanity.
Furthermore, the contribution points gained from slaying Demonic Beasts can be used to exchange for resources...
He calmed down quickly.
"Just consider it as being employed by the Holy Dynasty."
With this thought in mind, he continued deeper into the area.
As people move further and further away from Liuhuo City, or rather, from the Holy Dynasty's residential area, the number of Demonic Beasts appearing in their field of vision, Gu Jinlai, increases.
Even after the Demonic Beasts had reduced their defensive perimeter by more than 20,000 miles away from Liuhuo City, there were still quite a few demon kings loitering in front of him.
These demon kings have never been treated with courtesy, neither in Gu Jinlai.
A beam of divine fire shot out directly.
The divine light of the fire emanating from the Eternal Furnace was like laser cannons several meters in diameter, and could even reach tens of meters in some cases. In an instant, it pierced through the demon kings across dozens of miles and turned them into charcoal.
Gu Jinlai have never tolerated groups of ordinary or Demonic Beasts.
It flew through the air, sending a small amount of nuclear fusion energy flying past.
In an instant, the brilliance of righteousness reduced hundreds, even thousands, of Demonic Beasts to ashes.
Save energy?
The most distinctive feature of the Eternal Furnace is its ever-increasing energy conversion rate.
In terms of battery life, it has never disappointed him.
A brilliant, dazzling white light burst forth.
The raging heat and shockwaves swept through the thousands of Demonic Beasts with devastating force, and all the trees along the way crumbled and turned to dust, like rotten wood swept up by a storm.
The visible flames spread outwards at an incredible speed, instantly engulfing an area of several miles and turning that area into a sea of fire.
In the very center of the sea of fire, whether they were powerful demon kings or weaker Demonic Beasts, they were all reduced to ashes without any suspense, leaving no trace of their bodies.
"Demon King, Great Demonic Beasts, Demonic Beasts, these once powerful monsters are no longer even worthy of my attention."
Flying in the sky from ancient times to the present, with some emotion in his expression.
He remembered that the first time he encountered Demonic Beasts was in Changjun City.
If it weren't for his eldest disciple Su Nanxing together, even if he were to kill the Demonic Beasts in the end, he would probably have to pay a price himself.
That was merely a High-ranking Demonic Beast.
Not even a great Demonic Beasts.
But now...
Whether they are High-ranking Demonic Beast or great Demonic Beasts, to him they are all just common soldiers.
Even the Demon King, who was powerful enough to block the north and south of the Tianhe River in the Qiantian region, was only a matter of a single nuclear fusion.
It's no exaggeration to say that he had a hundred ways to kill the Demonic Beasts King, and the Demonic Beasts wouldn't even know how he died.
"In today's world, there should still be places similar to Qian Tian, and some holy lands should still be protecting some humans. However, the number of humans in those places is definitely not comparable to that of Qian Tian. A force with a True Immortal on the land can only protect ten million people if it can do so well. Ten million people... their war potential is already very limited."
Gu Jinlai, he casually swept away Demonic Beasts: "The reason why Qian Tian had over a billion people back then was twofold. Firstly, the True Person Wushi was managing the Spirit Realm, making it impossible for the Demon Realm to create any large rifts here. Secondly, it was due to the formidable reputation established by the Heavenly Emperor and his ilk a hundred years ago..."
Lin Yuan, the Lord of the Abyss, Tai'a, the Imperial Tutor, and Xu Wuying, who were contemporaries of the Heavenly Emperor, all had the feat of wiping out holy lands. Even if they weren't peerless Void Immortals, they were probably not far off.
Add to that the Beginningless True Person wielding two divine weapons...
From this perspective, the Heavenly Emperor's combat power is estimated to be on par with that of a True Immortal.
That is why Qian Cai, who was able to kill him, made the surrounding Demonic Beasts wary.
Furthermore, since Qiantian is not the center of the world, it has never attracted any powerful demons, thus allowing Qiantian to remain a pure land to this day.
"Wu Shi has perished. In the future, the rifts in the Demon Realm will widen further. Large and super-large rifts will become commonplace, and there may even be Demon Abysses that allow Spirit Venerables to freely enter and exit... With the power that Qian Tian currently possesses, if even one Demonic Spirit descends, he can easily overwhelm Qian Tian. And if a Demon Emperor appears, he will be forced to use the power of destiny to perish together with Qian Tian..."
Thinking of this, Gu Jinlai, I couldn't help but feel a little anxious to return to the heavens.
After all, that's where his real base of operations is.
As he pondered, a vast human settlement gradually appeared in his perception.
As he activated the Heavenly purple qi Technique, a faint, negligible wisp of human fortune stubbornly stood firm amidst the radiance of numerous Demonic Beasts.
We've arrived at the largest Demonic Beasts -breeding ground on the outskirts of Blazing Fire City.
"Oh, quite a few powerful Demonic Beasts have gathered here. It seems they know I've arrived."
Gu Jinlai, it doesn't seem strange at all.
He fought his way here, so it's impossible that the Demonic Beasts didn't get advance notice.
At that moment, he no longer concealed his aura. The power of the Eternal Furnace continuously emanated from his body and erupted. In the void, it seemed as if a phantom of a great sun appeared, releasing endless light, as if to illuminate the entire area within a hundred miles.
