Everyone observed these treasures and found that the closer to the cave, the higher the rarity of the plants. In addition, the spiritual energy here is rich, and these plants grow much better than outside.
After entering Xiaoyue Sirius's cave, Chu Ming found that both sides were piled with various rare ores, many of which were rare treasures for high-level sects.
Chu Ming was naturally not polite and took the lead in collecting all these ores into the system space.
As you enter the cave, the level of the treasures increases.
There are even some monuments.
"Have Xiaoyue Sirius collected all the treasures in the Gushe Mountains? No wonder guarding such a treasure land has only raised their level to another level."
Seeing these dazzling treasures, Chu Ming couldn't help but sigh. He didn't expect that this "wolf couple" was still a miser.
The key point is what use do the monsters have for these ores and ancient objects? If the plants outside can be eaten and used to improve their realm and physical fitness, then the items in the cave are useless to them.
Of course, all of this is now cheaper for Chu Ming. He is now merciless in collecting treasures.
Finally, there was a huge pearl in the deepest part of the cave, which was as big as a small house. Everyone was shocked by the scene in front of them.
He didn’t know where Xiaoyue Tianlang found such a huge pearl. Chu Ming couldn’t help but admire this pair of treasure-hunting experts!
Just when he was about to collect the pearl into the system space, he found that he couldn't collect it at all.
"Xiaotie, what's going on?"
"The master's pearl is gestating a powerful life, which requires energy and the environment here. If it is absorbed into the system space, it will die."
"Life? What?"
"Master, Xiaotie just provided you with the information for free. There is a fee for treasure appraisal."
"Xiaotie, you are my system, and you still need to charge a fee for doing things for the master. Isn't it too much?"
"Master, please don't be angry. The main reason is that Xiaotie does not have enough permissions now. As long as the master completes the task upgrade and Xiaotie gets enough permissions, there will naturally be no fees."
At the end of the debate, Chu Ming still heard the familiar routine. He had recently lamented that Xiaotie had become more humane and did not urge him to upgrade. It turned out that he was just late, not late.
"Xiaotie, I agree with your suggestion, but this is my first time using the treasure identification function. Should you give me a reward?"
The system did not answer immediately. It seemed to be considering Chu Ming's proposal. After a short while, it replied to him. "The conditions proposed by the owner are reasonable, and I will give it to you for the first time to appraise the treasure."
After using the system for a long time, Chu Ming began to become experienced. He knew at what point in time he could win his own rights and interests.
"This is not a pearl, but a bird egg."
Chu Ming was shocked by Xiaotie's words, which completely subverted his knowledge. Not only had he never seen such a large and beautiful bird egg, he had also never heard of it.
"Here is the Chongming bird."
The Chongming Bird looks like a chicken and sings like a phoenix. This bird has two eyes in each eye, so it is called the Chongming Bird.
It is very powerful, capable of chasing down ferocious beasts, and has extremely strong combat effectiveness.
And it is also an auspicious beast that can drive away disasters and bad luck.
The Chongming Bird is neither a spiritual beast nor a strange beast, it is a real mythical beast!
All the spiritual beasts on the alien beast rankings bundled together are not worth its value.
But why do mythical beasts appear in Shanhai Continent? Isn’t this the world of high martial arts? Everything puzzled Chu Ming.
After all, they still know too little about this place.
Chongmingniao was born in the realm of the Martial Emperor. After a little growth, he became a strong one among the Martial Gods. Human Martial Gods could not shake its overlord status at all. Only the most powerful ones with extraordinary talents could fight against it.
"Master, it hasn't fully hatched yet. You only need to drip your own essence and blood onto the egg to sign a life-and-death contract with the Chongming Bird."
"Life and death contract?"
Chu Ming discovered very keenly that Xiaotie was not talking about the spiritual pet contract.
"Yes, this is a more advanced contract, that is, if either of you dies, the other one will also die."
"You call this a more advanced contract?"
Isn’t this “involvement”? Why did it become so advanced after reaching the system's mouth?
"The basic lifespan of the Chongming Bird is 300,000 years."
Xiao Tie's words strengthened his confidence. Chu Ming first forced out a drop of blood from his eyebrows and dripped it on the bird's egg. The system flashed with a dazzling light. An ancient text and a complex pattern... Chu Ming and Chong Ming bird eggs covered it, and soon the light disappeared.
Chu Ming felt that there was an extra layer of connection between him and Chongmingniao, and he felt that the other party was eager for the inner elixir of the monster. It turns out that the inner elixir of the monster can speed up its hatching progress.
While Chu Ming was thinking about how to help the Chongming Bird hatch, Xiao Tie's voice came to his mind.
"Use one copy of the ancient contract and deduct its fees."
Chu Ming hurriedly opened the system space to check, and found that two of the three spiritual stone mountains inside had disappeared in an instant.
"Xiaotie, didn't you say that this appraisal is free!"
"Master, the appraisal is free, but there is a fee for the props."
Hearing Xiaotie's explanation, Chu Ming's lungs almost exploded.
"What props can be so valuable? They are two Lingshi Mountains! They are Lingshi Mountains!"
Chu Ming couldn't calm down when he thought that the family fortune that everyone had worked so hard to accumulate had suddenly been reduced by two-thirds.
"The contract of life and death is the highest level of spiritual talisman and its value is immeasurable. Since this is the first time for the master to use system props, Xiaotie will give you a 10%25 discount. Otherwise, with the master's current wealth, he would not be able to purchase such a high-level spiritual talisman."
"Is it so expensive after a discount?"
"It can be bound to the mythical beast Chongming Bird. How much does the owner think this kind of talisman is worth?
Xiao Tie's rhetorical question made Chu Ming completely speechless. Fortunately, another spirit stone vein was discovered, and there were five other "hidden veins" in Wolong Mountain.
It is no exaggeration to say that Chu Ming is a man who is not short of "spiritual stones".
"How long will it take for the Chongming bird to hatch?"
"If there is no external help, it will take about five years. If there are enough inner elixirs of the monster for it to absorb, the process will be greatly accelerated. It may be possible to hatch successfully in three to five months."
"Xiao Tie, you are incompetent! Why can't you even estimate the accurate time?"
Chu Ming seized every opportunity to attack the system, but the disappearance of the two spiritual stone mountains still made him feel distressed.
"The hatching of the Chongming bird egg mainly depends on the energy it absorbs. If the owner can obtain the inner elixir of the Emperor Wu monster, it can hatch within a month."
He originally wanted to attack Xiaotie, but unexpectedly he was defeated by him. Chu Ming found that the system could now quarrel with him, and the progress of humanization was getting bigger and bigger.
I really don’t know where Xiaoyue Sirius found the Chongming bird egg. If it was stolen from the bird’s nest, would his parents come to trouble him.
Their current strength cannot withstand the attacks of the two Martial Gods.
Although he knew that there could be no divine beasts in Shanhai Continent, he still joked with Xiao Tie in a playful way. "Master, don't worry. This bird egg should be about 100,000 years old. It should have been sealed by some kind of energy at first, and it was only recently unsealed."
"One hundred thousand years ago? The vitality of the divine beast is indeed powerful!"
It seems that something extraordinary happened one hundred thousand years ago, which caused the mythical beast Chongming Bird to appear in Shanhai Continent.
The harvest from the Hidden Immortal Valley was far greater than Chu Ming imagined. Not only did he find the hidden vein, but he also harvested the mythical beast Chongming Bird. Moreover, Chu Ming also had a vague hunch that the valley itself was not simple. There was light from its depths underground, and the means to block the backflow of the pond water were beyond the scope of the Shanhai Continent.
It's like there is a mysterious veil always shrouding the valley. If the veil cannot be lifted, it is impossible to truly see the true face of the valley.
When everyone got together to have a barbecue in the evening, Chu Ming found that the quirky Zhao Min was much more stable, giving the impression that he was a little preoccupied.
"Min'er, what's wrong? From the moment you entered the valley, I felt that you were acting differently than usual."
"I don't know, I just feel like I like it here, but this feeling makes me very uneasy."
"Why does liking make you feel uneasy?"
"Sir, although the scenery here is pleasant, Min'er has seen a lot of beautiful mountains and rivers. The closeness here is what makes me feel uneasy."
Chu Ming understood Zhao Min's worries. It was the first time for everyone to enter Hidden Immortal Valley, but Zhao Min felt familiar with this place.
As warriors, they naturally have keen perceptions, and this sense of unwarranted closeness can easily make them wary.
"Min'er, there is no need to worry too much. Not to mention that you are also a lucky person. You have also seen what happened today. The Double Ninth Bird is a famous auspicious animal. With it sitting here, even if an accident occurs, it will It will definitely be a good thing.”
It may be that what Chu Ming said makes sense, or it may be that Zhao Min is happy because he received Chu Ming's comfort.
Anyway, the uneasy feeling completely disappeared from her heart.
Zhao Min regained his composure and regained the cheerful demeanor of a grassland child. He looked at Chu Ming and asked, "Master, do you like Min'er?"
Chu Ming didn't expect that the question would change so quickly, but he still quickly answered, "I like it very much!"
Hearing these three words, although Zhao Min's face turned red, he still insisted on asking, "Why hasn't the young master gotten close to any of the sisters yet? Now that there is no hindrance from the fake lady at home, the opportunity is perfect." Mature."
These are all words of tiger and wolf, especially the last sentence, the time is ripe, what are they implying!
