The mortal's candle dragon opens the sky

Chapter 11: Red Flame Cone, Biling Island

On the other side, Liu Yi, with a dirty face and wearing tattered clothes, was busying around nervously. He observed the magic circle and adjusted the firepower, and from time to time threw various materials into the cauldron, such as copper essence and fire-molten crystal. The timing of refining these materials was different.

After the refining was completed, under the guidance of Liu Yi, they began to engrave a miniature magic circle on the treasure cone, which Xuyang did not quite understand. These were all just copying, as long as they were exactly the same.

Three days later, in the cave, scorching waves of fire rolled, and a faint golden-red light circled rapidly above the cave, appearing and disappearing, making crackling sounds. Its speed was so fast that it was really a bit horrifying.

Looking closely, it was a golden-red cone in the midst of flames, with a few barely detectable strands of white fire spirit threads surrounding it.

Liu Yi on the side held up the shield and resisted the rolling waves of fire in a rather awkward manner. He felt dry mouth and burning all over, and looked at it with a complicated expression.

There is a sense of accomplishment from participating in the design of treasure refining, but there is also the worry that the bow will be put away after the bird is killed.

Because the three-year period has expired, although Xuyang once promised to let him go, Liu Yi still doesn't hold out much hope. After all, there are differences between humans and demons, and he can't help but feel a little worried.

After practicing for a while, Xuyang took it into his body with satisfaction. This Golden Flame Cone was his lifelong magic weapon. When he activated the magic circle to recognize the master, he contributed several large mouthfuls of blood to refine it. Naturally, he could take it into his body and cultivate it with the lifelong demon fire in the demon pill. After a few hundred years, its power would not be weaker than the top ancient treasures.

Turning his gaze to Liu Yi, Xu Yang pondered for a moment, then transmitted his voice:

"You are thoughtful. You have taught me the art of refining weapons over the past three years. I have seen it all. Although you and I are of different races, I am not the kind of demon who only knows how to kill. You should pack up and get ready to go. Remember, I, Xuyang, hope that you will have achieved the Golden Core when we meet again. Of course, if we meet in the open sea next time, I will not hold back."

"What? Senior Xu is willing to let me go!"

Liu Yi was trembling all over, and he couldn't believe it.

"Hahaha, you don't have to test me. Killing you won't do me any good. But before you leave, you have to swear a vow to your demons that you will never reveal anything about me."

"I thank you for not killing me!"

Liu Yi naturally would not object. He immediately pointed to the sky, swore an oath, and kowtowed respectfully.

Watching Liu Yi pay homage with great ceremony, Xu Yang summoned his demonic power, supported the void, and continued to admonish:
"No need to thank me. I have benefited from you. Finally, I will tell you that the northern part of this vast sea abyss is the territory of my Jiaolong clan. There are also many other high-level monsters. You should leave as soon as possible. You can also choose three of these top-level magic weapons to take away."

Liu Yi was naturally overjoyed, and happily picked out three magical instruments for self-defense and flight, and in return gave some books on talismans.

Although his cultivation level has not improved at all in the past three years, he has obtained three top-level magical instruments, so this trip to the sea was not in vain. Moreover, he also participated in the refining of the Golden Flame Cone and gained a lot in the art of refining instruments. After returning to sort it out, it will be just a matter of time for him to become a master of refining instruments.

After the man and the dragon had a simple fight, they parted ways.

Xuyang continued to head west towards Biling Island.

Ten days later, Xuyang relied on the jade pendant's phased array radar with a range of thousands of miles to stay away from the high-level demon cultivators. Without any further trouble, he finally arrived at a huge deserted island safely.

This deserted island was isolated in the sea, and its area was as large as that of the Tianxing Island recorded in the sea chart. There were several extremely high peaks on it, each of which was nearly ten thousand feet high.

What is even more amazing is that these mountains are extremely steep and smooth. From a distance, there is no grass growing on them, as if several stone pillars are piercing the sky. It is the first time that Xuyang has seen such tall mountains in his past and present lives. He couldn't help but want to write a poem, but he couldn't come up with a poem after thinking for a long time.

Not only these mountains, but the entire island has no trace of green. It is a monotonous gray and white everywhere, and there is almost no fluctuation of spiritual energy. Except for some low-level monsters like sea monkeys on the coastline preying on sea fish, there are almost no living creatures further in.

Such a huge and strange island, with no flora or fauna, seems extremely unreasonable in the world of immortal cultivation. This should be the Biling Island where the high-level spirit stone mine is located in the original book.

You should know that on the land of the human world, there are scattered spiritual veins of varying sizes, and this kind of spiritual land is very rare.

Generally speaking, spiritual ores are companions of spiritual veins. Wherever there are spiritual veins, more or less spiritual stone mines of varying qualities will gradually emerge. Spiritual stones are more like inert products of the Eye of Aura.

On the contrary, where there are spirit stone mines, there must be spirit veins.

"This island is so huge. If there is a top-grade spirit stone mine, how come it was not discovered until tens of thousands of years after the invasion of the Demon Realm? Don't the ancient cultivators like spirit stones?" Xuyang muttered secretly.

Considering these towering pillars, Xuyang guessed that this island must have some unknown secrets, and it might be a backup plan of the ancient monks similar to those on Kunwu Mountain.

But these have nothing to do with Xuyang. He came here to dig spirit stones. As long as he doesn't do anything stupid or is too greedy, he can leave after digging enough spirit stones. Other things are up to him.

It took Xuyang half a day to circle the coastline. After making sure that there were no high-level monsters, he began to dig holes everywhere on the island. With one strike of the Golden Flame Cone, a hole dozens of feet deep was dug.

After searching for half a month, a strange low mountain was discovered.

Why is it weird?
The entire mountain is evenly covered with black stone. The black stone itself is nothing special, but there is a mystery beneath the black stone, which is a light blue mineral.

Xuyang grabbed a large piece of it casually, just like tofu, and was about to throw it away after a casual glance, but he was suddenly startled, as if he had discovered something. He suddenly withdrew his hand and put the bluestone in front of his eyes, activating the spiritual eye technique, and his pair of dragon eyes shone with half a foot of golden light.

Then he closed his eyes again, concentrated for a moment, and finally discovered something unusual.

In the human world, even in desolate places without spiritual veins, there is still a small amount of spiritual energy in the air. Although it is definitely not enough for cultivation, it still exists no matter how little.

But there was no spiritual energy around this bluestone, as if a hole had formed, turning it into a place without any spiritual energy.

Spirit Stone Mine! That's right.

With a loud "woosh" sound, the golden flame cone just circled and was about to fall. Xuyang suddenly thought of something and took out a pocket-sized sword as thin as a cicada's wing from the storage bag that contained many magical weapons.

After Liu Yi's experiments, he found that this small sword could pose a considerable threat to ordinary level five monsters.
