Chapter 4: Exploding Luck? Another Drop!
After obtaining a Gu worm, raising, using, and refining it is definitely a complex subject.
The "Complete Guide to Gu Master Applications from Levels 1 to 5" awarded by the system provides detailed explanations of how to raise, use, and refine all Gu worms from level 1 to 5.
First-stage Gu worms, wine worms, small light Gu, jade skin Gu...
Second-stage Gu worm, White Jade Gu, Love and Separation...
The wine worm can temper the true essence within the body and increase the speed of cultivation.
The Small Light Gu can increase the attack power of the Moonlight Gu, while the White Jade Gu increases its own defense...
Ye Ming sighed inwardly, "These Gu worms each have their own uses!"
If he could, he would love to refine and master them all.
The void is infinitely large and can hold an infinite number of Gu worms, but the resources of a Gu master are limited, and the number of Gu worms they can refine is also limited.
He's just thinking about it now.
After roughly mastering this comprehensive guide, Ye Ming came up with several possible paths to becoming a Gu Master.
Control flow, ultimate power flow, ranged combat style...
However, what school of thought he wants to pursue will depend on what kind of Gu worms he can acquire later.
The current instance world is Douluo Continent, not the Gu Realm, so the Gu worms are obviously not as abundant as in the Gu Realm.
Many of these Gu worms simply don't exist in this world.
Ye Ming sat cross-legged on the bed, his emerald green true essence constantly washing over the light membrane in his acupoints to cultivate, while simultaneously absorbing information from his mind.
The first night in Douluo Continent passed quietly.
……
The next day, smoke rose from the small village as some farmers carrying farm tools headed towards the fields.
These are disciples from affiliated sects of the Haotian Sect.
After the Haotian Sect went into seclusion, most of the disciples from other sects who were affiliated with the Haotian Sect ended up in this situation.
Ye Ming, carrying a basket on his back and a pickaxe, followed behind these people at a leisurely pace.
"Five years ago, in the battle of Spirit City, His Majesty Haotian intervened, forcing the Pope to retreat and forcefully protecting that 100,000-year-old spirit beast! What a display of power!"
"Who can argue with that!"
"It's just a pity that His Majesty Haotian's son is a bit foolish. The 100,000-year-old soul beast that His Majesty found for him, he actually wants to use it as a wife!"
"Shh! Be quiet! This is not something we should be discussing!"
By deliberately stirring up the conversation, he obtained a lot of information from these farmers.
This information helped him determine his current timeline and thwarted his plan to leave the Clear Sky Sect and cut off Tang San's opportunity.
Based on the timeline, Tang San should have just come out of the City of Slaughter and is currently staying at Yuexuan. His cultivation level should be around level 50, making him a Soul King.
The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well has already been ruined by this guy, and the God of Asura has probably noticed Tang San as well.
The Vast Ocean Universe Cover is beyond what a level 10 Soul Master like him could even imagine.
He's missed the opportunities he could have seized in the early stages. And the opportunities that come later are beyond his reach now.
If the opportunity to increase soul power is gone, then the only option is to increase the Gu Master's cultivation level, which will then provide feedback to increase soul power!
"If the opportunity is gone, then I'll just create one myself!"
Ye Ming glanced discreetly at the figure in white behind him, then walked past the crowd toward the distant mine.
After walking for about half an hour, he arrived at a mine belonging to the Haotian Sect on the west side of the small village.
From a distance, the mine looks like a tall mountain, mostly bare rock, with the rest covered in grass.
At the foot of the mountain, scattered mine shafts extend into the mountainside, densely packed like a beehive.
After the Haotian Sect closed its mountain, its several major mines became a very important source of income for it.
The mined ore is roughly processed by a group of blacksmiths within the sect before being sent to Gengxin City, the metal capital, to sustain the sect's livelihood.
The sounds of clanging and hammering could be heard from inside the mine, indicating that the other miscellaneous disciples and several outer disciples had already begun mining.
The mine is not rich in resources, and only the menial disciples and outer disciples on duty in the small village would choose to come here.
Approaching the mine, Ye Ming skillfully stepped on the gravel and walked to the mountainside to find stones the size of a human head to mine.
The mine is very large, and even though people live hundreds of meters apart, there is no chance of them fighting over the ore.
The shockwave from the pickaxe made his hand slightly numb, but Ye Ming got used to it in an instant.
After upgrading one's soul power, one's physical attributes will be slightly improved. A level 10 soul warrior can work for a whole day mining these ores.
Most importantly, after Ye Ming underwent the cleansing of the Moon Orchid Sea Spiritual Spring and opened his acupoints, his physical fitness underwent a tremendous increase.
He was only a beginner-level Gu Master, but in terms of physical attributes alone, even ordinary Great Soul Masters couldn't compare!
He's the perfect miner!
"Thud!"
The stone was smashed, and a piece of iron ore the size of a walnut, with a silvery sheen, rolled out from the rubble.
"A great start!"
Ye Ming was overjoyed, as iron ore was considered a top-grade ore in this mine.
This piece alone is worth at least one Gold Soul Coin!
He needed to save up some money to buy the materials needed to raise the Gu worms.
He was about to bend down to pick it up when one of his feet had already stepped on the iron ore.
Ye Ming looked up and saw Tang Niu, dressed in white, with his arms crossed, looking at him with a mocking expression.
"Don't you know this area is my territory?"
"Consider this piece of iron your apology!"
Tang Niu bent down, picked up the piece of iron, and casually put it into his pocket. He patted Ye Ming on the shoulder and said:
"Tang Yeming, there's still plenty of ore in the mine. Keep it up!"
When the other disciples saw this scene, they were only stunned for a moment, and then went back to doing their own thing as if nothing had happened.
It's not worth offending a Grand Soul Master for the sake of a menial disciple.
Looking at the calm, unwavering gaze in the young man's eyes, Tang Niu suddenly felt a surge of panic.
But he laughed instantly.
He's just a mere Soul Master, a menial disciple. What's there to panic about?
Tang Niu chuckled, "Don't even think about reporting this to the sect. You're just a menial disciple; you can't possibly get this done!"
Ye Ming maintained his indifferent expression, his eyes like deep pools, making it impossible to see through his heart.
Hearing Tang Niu's mocking words, he sneered inwardly, "I knew you were following me all along, but I didn't expect you to lose your temper so easily."
"This is exactly what I wanted!"
He inadvertently revealed a hint of "fear," as if he had thought of something, and lowered his head, turning to walk towards the mine below.
The risks inside the mine are much higher than those in the exposed ore.
Not only do we need to be wary of mine collapses, but we also need to be careful of some soul beasts lurking underground.
Normally, no one would go into the mine to mine.
In Tang Niu's eyes, Ye Ming's behavior meant that the other party was afraid and had given in!
"Afraid? Then I'll have even less to worry about if I take your subsidies!"
Tang Niu grinned as he watched Ye Ming walk into the mine.
He not only wanted to steal Ye Ming's subsidies, but also to completely subdue him and make him mine for him every day!
To avoid being discovered by others, Tang Niu deliberately took a detour, avoiding everyone's sight before entering the mine that Ye Ming had just entered.
"Ding ding ding!"
Upon entering the mine and hearing the sounds of hammering coming from within, Tang Niu's smile grew even brighter.
There were too many people outside, so he couldn't make a move.
Now that only the two of them are left in the mine, he can teach this kid a lesson without anyone seeing it.
He's a level 21 Great Soul Master; beating up a level 9 Soul Warrior would be a piece of cake for him.
Following the direction of the sound, Tang Niu turned a corner and saw Ye Ming, dressed in gray, swinging a pickaxe and striking the rock wall.
"Ding!"
At that moment, a clear sound rang out, and a rich green light suddenly appeared on the rock wall.
At the same time, a dense surge of soul power emerged from the green light, causing the expressions of the two to change instantly.
Ye Ming's face was full of strange expressions. He didn't expect that he would actually get another shipment just by going through the motions!
This extraordinary phenomenon is definitely not an ordinary thing.
He subconsciously swung his pickaxe, smashing the surrounding rocks, and a piece of mottled green jade fell down.
Inside this green jade stone, there was a worm the size of a finger!
Ye Ming's eyes narrowed instantly!
This green jade stone contains a Gu worm!
