Chapter 19 Qi Refining Level 3
In the blink of an eye.
A year and a half has passed.
As Ye Xuan'an had predicted, Pei Su's cultivation progressed relatively quickly due to his previous significant gains.
He even quickly advanced to the fourth level of Qi Refining, becoming a high-ranking member of the Blood Fiend Gang, and his status rose rapidly.
In addition, the miners in the mine became extremely hardworking because of the reward and punishment system.
In addition, the vein has been mined for many years.
The ore in the vein became increasingly scarce.
Even scattered here and there.
Therefore, it would be considered good if an ordinary Qi Refining Level 1 cultivator could mine 50 catties of ore per month.
Miners' income also decreased significantly.
Even if the mineral vein reduces the basic mining quantity of the reward and punishment system.
However, many miners are still dissatisfied with their income.
After all, even if you work yourself to the bone and don't pay taxes, you can only earn two or three spirit stones a month, which is really not much.
Moreover, income may decrease in the future, and it is even rumored that the ore in the vein can only be mined for a maximum of six months.
As a result, many miners quit their mining jobs and went to other places to find new work.
at the same time.
Mineral veins, residential area.
"Brother Xuan'an, Fellow Daoist Pei Su, I'm also planning to leave."
"I found a job as a handyman in a shop called 'Dongyang Refining Shop' in Ruoshui Market. Although I didn't earn as much as I did mining, I got some commission from selling things. Plus, I signed a ten-year contract with them, so the job was relatively stable and there was some hope for the future."
"By the way, if you want to buy magical artifacts in the future, you can contact me. I have an insider price that can give you a 10% discount, but there are only a few spots available."
Zhang Fu said with a smile.
Over the years he had been mining, he and Ye Xuan'an had gone through a lot together, and he knew that Ye Xuan'an and Ye Xuan'an were both good people.
Therefore, he was unwilling to sever ties with Ye Xuan'an.
"Okay, if I ever go to the market area in the future, I will definitely look for you, Brother Zhang."
"I really didn't expect that you, Brother Zhang, would find a new job so quickly and sign such a long-term contract. I truly admire your ability."
"After all, it is said that recently, due to the influx of many miners into the market, it has become extremely difficult to find work there."
Ye Xuan'an was somewhat surprised upon hearing this.
"yes."
Pei Su couldn't help but agree.
"I was lucky to find that kind of work. Do you guys still remember Qiu Yang, that old drunkard?"
Zhang Fu said with a smile.
"How could I not remember? I remember he used to be an old drunkard who often came to you to drink and brag."
"But he left after only a few years of mining, and if I think about it, I haven't seen him for several years."
"Have you seen him recently? Also, is he perhaps connected to that shop?"
Ye Xuan'an asked in surprise.
"Old Qiu, the drunkard?"
Pei Su was somewhat puzzled by this. He used to be a loner, and besides, Old Qiu the Drunkard hadn't been mining in the mine for long, so he didn't know Old Qiu very well, having only met him a few times.
"Yes, that shop is indeed related."
Zhang Fu said with a smile.
According to him, he happened to meet him half a month ago when he was looking for work in the market.
Moreover, after several years, he not only became a first-tier low-grade weapon refiner.
In fact, the Dongyang Refining Shop was jointly opened by him and another first-grade low-level refiner.
Therefore, Zhang Fu used his connections and spent a lot of money to send him several bottles of spirit wine according to his preferences, which is how he got the job as a handyman.
"I see. But I really didn't expect that old drunkard Qiu would actually possess the skill of weapon forging, and even become a boss."
Ye Xuan'an couldn't help but marvel.
He also remembered that Old Qiu, the drunkard, used to like mining alone.
For a moment, he couldn't help but suspect that the old drunkard Qiu had entered the mine to mine, just like him, intending to secretly use the ore to hone his skills in weapon crafting.
After all, this matter can minimize the cost of weapon forging.
As for his sudden resignation from mining, it is estimated that he has successfully cultivated the art of weapon crafting to the first-tier low-grade level.
Furthermore, lacking special spatial treasures like servants and tantamounts to assist him, he found it difficult to take the magical artifacts he crafted out to earn profits.
That's why he left.
"If my guess is true, then that old drunkard Qiu is quite clever."
"However, to be fair, Brother Zhang's ability to cultivate connections with someone like Old Drunkard Qiu is truly impressive."
Ye Xuan'an couldn't help but sigh.
After all, even if an ordinary person gets to know such a person, it would be difficult for them to help arrange a stable job.
Afterwards, Ye Xuan'an chatted with Zhang Fu and the others for a few more minutes.
"By the way, Brother Xuan'an, Fellow Daoist Pei Su, what are your plans for the future? After all, you won't be able to keep working at this mine for much longer."
"Would you like me to help you find new jobs in the market area in the future?"
Zhang Fu asked kindly.
"There's no rush. I plan to mine here for a while longer, one day at a time."
Ye Xuan'an said.
After all, he had the help of Kui Yi, Kui Fang, and the Little Dark Gold Rat to mine, and he could also use the servant tower to take the ore and the magical artifacts he made out to sell for profit.
Therefore, even though the ore in the vein is scarce, his income is still quite good, at least better than ordinary jobs.
Therefore, he does not plan to leave for the time being.
"I'll stay here for a while. After all, I receive an extra salary from the Blood Fiend Gang, plus the spirit stones from mining, so my monthly income is not bad."
Pei Su said.
"Okay, then if you need any help in the future, you can come to me."
Zhang Fudao.
He then chatted with Ye Xuan'an for a few more minutes before saying goodbye. He then sought out the mine manager, resigned from his job, and headed towards the market.
Years have passed, and the number of fellow miners I used to work with has dwindled.
Ye Xuan'an watched Zhang Fu's departing figure, his expression slightly complicated.
Pei Su was the same.
It took them a long time to come to their senses.
……
About two weeks later...
During this period, Ye Xuan'an and Kui Yi, among others, made particularly good progress in their cultivation due to the assistance of abundant cultivation resources.
In addition, they had already cultivated to the second level of Qi Refining for a long time.
They all encountered bottlenecks in their cultivation.
now.
A mine shaft, somewhere.
"It's said that the higher one's cultivation level, the harder it is to break through the bottlenecks, but thanks to the support of Kuiyi and Kuifang's talents, my aptitude has become extremely good."
Therefore, the bottleneck I'm facing now isn't difficult at all; it's even much weaker than the bottleneck I encountered when I was at the first level of Qi Refining.
"This is actually quite beneficial for my breakthrough, as it saves me a lot of time spent polishing my bottlenecks, allowing me to directly attempt to break through to a higher realm."
While Ye Xuan'an was meditating here, he felt that the bottleneck in his body was extremely weak, and his face immediately lit up with joy.
Immediately afterwards, he consumed some cultivation resources and began to break through the bottleneck.
Because of his strong foundation, the matter proceeded very smoothly.

become!
His cultivation level also increased by nearly 10%.
"With my current cultivation level, I'm afraid I could simultaneously control even more top-tier innate magical artifacts and formations, which would even be beneficial to my crafting of magical artifacts and formations."
Ye Xuan'an was overjoyed.
Originally, he could only refine a maximum of two innate magic artifacts at a time, but now he can refine at least three magic artifacts, which is enough to increase his income considerably.
"By the way, with my breakthrough in cultivation, I can now summon a third servant."
Ye Xuan'an secretly looked forward to it.
