financial resources.No one dared to be reckless at the auction.In the past, there were also those who competed and tried to steal treasures, but without exception, they were easily suppressed. Their...Even though everyone present was formidable, they were being chased by evil spirits and looked wretched.

Kong Xin flashed into the cave, and everyone hurriedly followed. However, they didn't expect that this mountain cave was actually a dead end!

In an instant, the entrance of the cave was blocked by demons, and the ghostly howls outside grew increasingly piercing. It was unknown how many demons had been startled within the depths of the cavern.

The expressions of everyone present changed drastically, their eyes turned hostile as they stared at Kong Xin. Even Qin Sang was consumed with murderous intent. Kong Xin could be excused for telling a few harmless white lies to get closer, but deliberately leading people into a dead end was tantamount to harming them, a crime that couldn't be forgiven!

"You're asking for it!"

The woman in red was furious, her weapon pointed directly at Kong Xin, murderous intent evident!

However, Kong Xin's expression remained calm and composed, as if he had nothing to fear.

Qin Sang frowned, secretly wondering what Kong Xin's purpose was. He followed suit himself; if he were going to die, Kong Xin would die first. There was no fool who would act in such a way as to harm and rob.

At this point, Qin Sang shifted his gaze from Kong Xin and looked around the cave. After taking in the stone walls, his eyes narrowed slightly.

At this time, Kong Xin pointed calmly at the depths of the cave, "Look everyone, how are these rock walls different from outside" Everyone was stunned and looked over.

After Kong Xin's reminder, everyone realized that the stone wall here wasn't entirely black like the outside. Inside the wall, a faint white glow could be seen.

The most striking feature, even a thumbnail-sized crystal outline can be seen.

"These..."

The first to recognize this cold light was the cultivator surnamed Bao. He exclaimed in astonishment, "Could it be a mother lode of cold gold"

Here is the translation of " >" :

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Cold gold"

Most people have heard of Han Jin's name.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Qin Sang recognized the cultivator surnamed Bao earlier than the others.

Master Wu's notes included information about some rare spiritual materials, among them was cold gold. When incorporated into a magical artifact, cold gold not only bestowed an extremely cold characteristic but also increased the artifact's durability. It was a truly rare and valuable material.

Unexpectedly, before even entering the depths of Wuyagou Valley, we encountered a vein of cold gold. It truly is a treasure trove.

Kong Xin nodded.

“Yes, these are indeed Hanjin ores. After refining them, you can obtain precious spiritual materials called Hanjin.”

Originally, the number of ghosts gathered above was far more than this. Millions upon millions of ghosts occupied all the surrounding mountains, making them impassable like dragons' lairs and tigers' dens. No one dared to enter, so this secret passage remained undiscovered.

> If not so, the cold gold ore would have already been dug up by people.

"After this great upheaval, I discovered that the ghost nest here had undergone a drastic change. The number of ghosts had drastically decreased, so I quietly infiltrated to investigate and found this secret passage and the mother lode of cold gold."

"It's a pity that my cultivation is too low, and I am unable to mine it alone. Besides, I dare not publicize this matter widely. If I were to ally with other forces, I might be devoured completely. I have no choice but to resort to this desperate measure."

"Since you gentlemen aren't interested in the cold gold, I won't force it. Let's just join forces and break out. The exit is just ahead, escaping shouldn't be difficult."

> But this secret here can't be hidden for too long. This secret passage will sooner or later be discovered, and then the cold gold ore will fall into the hands of others...

>

"Having entered a treasure mountain, yet returning empty-handed, I wonder if you all will feel it's a pity"

The Taoist cultivator with the surname Bao exclaimed in surprise, "What do you mean You're willing to divide these cold gold ore mothers among us"

This is a test.

Kong Xin calmly said: "Those who see have a share. I understand this principle. The cold gold ore extracted will be divided equally among all present. It's as if I am compensating you all for my previous transgressions. Otherwise, you wouldn't let me off easily, would you Besides, with evil spirits lurking outside, extracting the cold gold ore requires everyone to work together."

At this time, more and more attracted evil spirits rushed to the cave entrance, increasing the pressure on everyone.

Kong Xin finished speaking and closed his mouth, waiting for the others to decide.

"The Bau surname cultivator suddenly chuckled and looked around at everyone, "There's treasure ahead, fellow Daoists won't give up just like that, right Even though the evil ghost is strong, as long as we all bring out our trump cards and work together to resist it, it shouldn't be difficult to hold on for a while. We can harvest as much as we can during that time, and immediately retreat if things look bad. We are all seasoned individuals who understand how to weigh the pros and cons. As long as we pay attention to our limits, we won't end up like birds getting eaten by a cat, will we" Qin Sang was also a bit tempted.

This mother lode of hanjin ore, the size of a fist, can only refine a grain-sized piece of hanjin. But the entire wall of the cave is glowing with cold light. If the vein is large enough, even if everyone shares equally, it will be worthwhile.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

But, business comes first.

Qin Sang looked inquiringly at Yun Youzi, who nodded slightly without objecting.

Obviously, everyone couldn't resist the temptation of Cold Gold, and no one continued to pursue Kong Xin's previous actions.

Time was of the essence. The crowd immediately reorganized their formation, joining forces to withstand the onslaught of the evil spirit, buying Kong Xin time. Kong Xin drew out a shimmering blue sword, imbued it with spiritual energy, and with a flash of azure light, swung it towards the rock wall.

'Bang!'

A sharp crack.

The blue light flickered, and the crowd gasped in astonishment.

Kong Xin's full-powered strike with his sword only left a shallow mark on the stone wall!

Kong Xin wryly smiled and said, "This place breeds cold gold ore. The entire vein is affected by the cold gold, causing these stones to drastically change their properties and become extremely hard. This blue-light sword is the sharpest sword I could find after exhausting all my efforts. I also tried other methods like five element incantations, but unfortunately, they were all ineffective. I can only use brute force to slowly mine it..."

Everyone looked at each other in surprise.

Kong Xin could only slash a single sword mark with one sword. At this rate, it would take years to finish mining the vein

"I don't believe it, some broken stones could possibly withstand a magic weapon"

The woman in red let out a cold snort, withdrew the weapon that repelled evil spirits, and shifted her direction, stabbing at the stone wall with urgency.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

'Pfft!'

The needle-shaped instrument slid easily into the stone wall, but before the woman in red could show delight, she felt a powerful resistance coming from the artifact. It only went in less than an inch before it was jammed in the wall with all her might.

The magic weapon vibrated, trying to break open the stone wall, but the stone wall remained unyielding.

The woman in red helplessly retracted her magical artifact and tried several times, but the result was always the same. Her face flushed alternately between red and white, and she fell silent.

The monks surnamed Bao and the elder summoned their own magic weapons, which were not much better than Kong Xin's.

Kong Xin silently swung his sword, but unfortunately, his efficiency was really low. It took dozens of swings before he could dig out a piece of cold gold ore.

Qin Sang waved the Black Dragon Stone, smashing it repeatedly at the evil spirits outside. However, the evil spirits were endless, and even if they joined forces to resist, how long they could last was unknown.

>

Having thought this through, Qin Sang transmitted his voice to Yun Youzi and exchanged blows with him, saying: "Friend Kong, I have a spiritual sword here. Although its quality isn't high, it's still quite sharp. How about this: I'll mine the cold gold mine, and you defend against the onslaught of evil spirits"

The Wumu sword was crafted from fragments of a divine treasure and further tempered with a killing talisman. While I can't speak for everything else, its sharpness definitely surpasses all other magic weapons.
