Longevity Reward Redemption: The Immortal Clan Starts with Farmers

121: Chen Changsheng’s first visit to the prefectural city! The Zijin Copper Mine!”Chuanwu, don’t move! These stalagmites are not simple!”

Chen Changsheng quickly called out to Chuanwu, then walked over to the stalagmites to study them.

He saw that Chuanwu’s strike had already sliced through the outer skin of the stalagmite, revealing the purple-gold Ore inside.

”There’s something inside these stalagmites. You guys, knock off the stone outer skin of the stalagmites and see what exactly is inside.”

After Chen Changsheng discovered that dazzling purple-gold color, a sharp light flashed in his eyes, and he immediately ordered Chen Chuanwu and the others to take action.

So Chen Chuanwu and his group held their weapons and began to strike the surrounding stalagmites. Subsequently, pieces of the stalagmites’ outer skin fell off, leaving behind rods of purple-gold mineral material.

”Father, what is this stuff?”

Chen Chuanwen walked up to Chen Changsheng and asked with a look of confusion.

”Yeah, Father, this purple-gold stuff is so hard. Even with magic power, we can’t break it!”

Chuanjie also stood up and chimed in from the side.

”I don’t know what this thing is either, but I suspect it’s very likely a type of spiritual material for Artifact Refining. This stuff is not simple; everyone, find a way to get it down.”

Chen Changsheng stared at the spiritual material in front of him and pondered for a moment before speaking.

Afterward, the group began to think of ways to get it down. In the end, it was Wang Meng who thought of a method; he started digging from the base and excavated the thing, roots and all.

”Father, it’s all been collected. I estimate there’s about a thousand catties!”

Chen Chuanwu and the others placed these purple-gold minerals in a corner of the square. The purple-gold light shone brilliantly, lighting up the cave!

”Good, leave it here for now. Wait until I go into the Prefecture City tomorrow to find an old master and ask what exactly this stuff is!”

Chen Changsheng looked at the purple-gold minerals before him and felt that they were surely extraordinary; perhaps they could serve as the Chen Family’s future heritage.

Chen Changsheng and the others then began to Cultivate in the Spiritual Land, experiencing the feeling of an ocean of Spiritual Qi. Especially when layered with Spirit Crystals, their Cultivation speed was simply advancing by leaps and bounds!

The next morning, Chen Chuanjie found Chen Changsheng. With a slight frown, he said to Chen Changsheng:

”Father, in our Family now, there are five people practicing immortality. The Spirit Crystals smuggled from the Local Chieftain are currently just enough. In the future, if everyone’s cultivation rises or if the younger generation also starts practicing immortality, these Spirit Crystals won’t be enough. We should make preparations early!”

Chen Changsheng looked at Chuanjie’s worried expression and gave a gentle smile.

”Second Son, you are indeed shrewd, but sometimes your mind doesn’t pivot. Our Family already has a Spiritual Land. Whether we plant some spiritual plants or raise some Spirit Fish, once we sell them, won’t the Spirit Crystals be in our hands?”

Chen Chuanjie was somewhat helpless. He shook his head and said to Chen Changsheng:

”Father, planting spiritual plants and raising Spirit Fish are both technical skills. No one in our Family has ever learned them. What if we raise them and they die?”

Chen Changsheng chuckled, patted Chen Chuanjie’s shoulder, and said with a smile:

”Don’t worry, your father will take care of this. You all just focus on Cultivating for now and raise your cultivation levels!”

Chen Changsheng thought to himself that indeed no one in the Chen Family had learned to plant Spirit Medicine, but he, Chen Changsheng, had received a System empowerment! Ordinary spiritual plants really wouldn’t stump him!

But I can’t tell you guys about this. Just let me, Old Chen, be a Genius!

After reassuring Chuanjie, Chen Changsheng called Chen Chuanwu and told him to take a piece of the purple-gold mineral and follow him to the Prefecture City to buy spiritual plants.

Previously, he had always heard Chuanwu and the others describe the prosperity of the Prefecture City and the cultivation resources in the market, but Chen Changsheng had never gone because his cultivation was too low.

Now that he had achieved an Innate Breakthrough and reached the first level of Qi Refining, he could finally go to the Prefecture City personally to broaden his horizons.

The two of them descended Jade Dragon Peak, found two horses at the Black Ice Platform outpost, and headed straight for the Prefecture City.

Upon arriving at the Prefecture City, the two dismounted and walked, observing the various sights of the city along the way.

”It truly is a prosperous and important town!”

Chen Changsheng looked at the various buildings with their carved beams and jade structures and couldn’t help but sigh with emotion. This kind of ancient luxury was something even the modern technology of his past life couldn’t compare to.

”Father, Xianju Alley is just ahead!”

Chen Chuanwu gave a reminder, and soon the two of them arrived at that simple and ancient alley entrance.

”The Great Dao is simple... well said!”

Chen Changsheng looked at the stone tablet at the entrance of Xianju Alley and couldn’t help but nod. The person who left this stone tablet seemed to indeed have some depth.

”Let’s go, get inside!”

Chen Changsheng didn’t linger any longer and had Chuanwu lead the way. Since both of them had magic power, they quickly entered Xianju Alley.

”Whoa, such a large square! It turns out there’s a whole other world inside here!”

Chen Changsheng looked at the market that suddenly expanded before him and couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.

”Father, do you want to go appraise the Materials and buy spiritual plants now, or do you plan to look around here?”

Chen Chuanwu saw that Chen Changsheng had quite an interest in the market, so he asked.

”Of course we do the serious business first. Let’s go appraise the mineral material!”

Chen Changsheng patted Chuanwu’s shoulder and let him lead the way. Chen Chuanwu brought Chen Changsheng directly to the largest Spirit Artifact Pavilion in the area.

As soon as he entered the Spirit Artifact Pavilion, Chen Changsheng was almost dazzled by the various Magical Artifacts, and the corners of his mouth watered with envy.

”What would you like to buy, customers?”

A female attendant soon came over to receive Chen Changsheng and his son.

”We aren’t buying anything yet. Would it be possible for you to help appraise a piece of material?”

Chen Changsheng snapped back to his senses and said to the female Cultivator with a smile.

”No problem, please follow me!”

The female Cultivator gave a polite smile and led Chen Changsheng and his son to a corner of the counter.

”What are you appraising? Bring it out!”

An old man with a white beard was sitting in that corner. He lifted his eyelids, gave Chen Changsheng a faint glance, and spoke.

”Senior, please have a look!”

Chen Changsheng didn’t feel any dissatisfaction with the old man’s attitude. After all, he was a craftsman. People who made a living by their craft were usually quite proud and arrogant.

Chen Changsheng had Chuanwu take out that piece of purple-gold material and place it on the table.

”Eh?”

The old man had originally been lazy, but as soon as he saw the Ore, he immediately perked up.

”Good stuff! Hey, this is really good stuff!”

The old man ignored everyone and just kept holding the material and admiring it.

Chen Changsheng was speechless and could only cough twice. The attendant understood Chen Changsheng’s meaning and quickly urged:

”Old He, what is this thing? The customer is still waiting for your appraisal result!”

When Old He heard the attendant’s urging, he finally put down the material in his hand and stroked his goatee, saying:

”This stuff is called purple gold copper ore. It is the top-tier material among first-grade spiritual materials. It is incredibly hard and can block attacks from the Peak of Qi Refining. Moreover, it can ward off evil and suppress ghosts; it is a great material for making evil-warding Magical Artifacts!”

Hearing this, Chen Changsheng had an idea of its value. Once a spiritual material reached a grade, the price wouldn’t be cheap. Sure enough, after Old He finished speaking, he continued:

”Kid, are you selling this piece of purple gold copper ore? You have about two catties here; I’m willing to offer forty thousand Spirit Crystals!”
