Master, you go first!

Gu Jiu didn't want to go up and smoke, so Shen Nian wanted to do it for him.

"If you don't want to go, I won't go, master. Just obey me." Gu Jiu quickly grabbed Shen Nian.

"Is there any danger?" Shen Nian was confused.

"That's not true. Let Senior Brother Lu go." Gu Jiu said firmly.

"Okay, then it's up to you." Shen Nian didn't know what medicine he was selling in his gourd.

Lu Rui stepped forward, put his hand on the stone ball, and activated his spiritual power. The stone ball lit up with red light, and the surrounding text grid lit up like a golden marquee and began to rotate.

Lu Rui retracted his hand, and the marquee spun around a few times, slowly slowing down, and finally stopped at "Keep working hard."

"I knew it." Gu Jiu patted his thigh, "This is a scam."

"what happened?"

"The one you got is to keep working hard and come back next time." Gu Jiu explained.

"So there is no reward?" Shen Nian was also annoyed, "Isn't this a long time of hard work in vain? I even added 10 spiritual stones."

"Hmm, that's understandable."

Lu Rui felt that the opening method was wrong, so he pressed his hand on the stone ball again and activated his spiritual power, but nothing happened.

Everyone was dejected and prepared to go out, but at this moment, the formation on the stone platform was in motion, and something suddenly appeared on it out of thin air.

"Hey, this is..." Gu Jiu was confused, "How rare is there a consolation prize?"

Shen Nian stepped forward to check and counted ten objects on the stone platform that looked like spiritual stones, but they were very large, almost the size of a palm. She had never seen the six corners of the round body. But her intuition told her that this might be a very high-grade spiritual stone.

Lu Rui said in surprise: "It's the best spiritual stone. Ah, I've made a fortune."

As Qi Jingtai's little follower, Lu Rui went out with him a lot and had seen the best spiritual stones. You must know that a high-grade spiritual stone is worth ten thousand ordinary spiritual stones, and a top-grade spiritual stone is worth a million ordinary spiritual stones. And now there are ten of them on the stone platform.

Gu Jiu almost became money-minded in an instant. He didn't expect that this consolation award, which he despised so much, could be so comforting. Ten ordinary spiritual stones are exchanged for ten top-grade spiritual stones. The profit is doubled by a million times. It's so unreal and exaggerated.

You must know that the current annual expenses of the sect are only several hundred thousand ordinary spiritual stones. This is enough for the sect to be in peace for more than ten years. The sect leader knows that he will definitely be happy.

But having said that, top-quality spiritual stones are not common in their resource-poor cultivation world. Most of them are used to set up some very large formations, such as the sect's mountain-protecting formation, or to trade some extremely precious resources for cultivating immortals. Therefore, top-quality spiritual stones are generally not exchanged for ordinary spiritual stones. Things of this grade are basically auctioned or bartered through interpersonal relationships, so the value is far from being as simple as literally equivalent to a million ordinary spiritual stones. .

The Lingxue Mountain Sect is a small low-level sect that doesn't even have a sect mountain-protecting formation. There are only a handful of disciples in the sect who have seen top-grade spiritual stones. Ten top-quality spiritual stones appeared all of a sudden, and the entire secret team was instantly excited.

"How to deal with this?" Lu Rui asked several people.

"Hand it over to the sect," Gu Jiu was the first to calm down and said, "We can't protect this thing even with the strength of a few of us. Besides, the sect master also trusts us so much, so he will let us disciples come here this time. Although it's okay If we have the opportunity, we can give some away first. But I think this is quite hot. Without the endorsement of the sect, we are afraid of being killed and taking the treasure if we take it out."

"I agree." Qiu Junhao was the first to agree.

"I don't have any objection." Shen Nian has no idea about money. So far, she only knows that this thing is very precious. As for how precious it is, she can't imagine.

"Okay." Tan Shuyi also agreed.

"Then it's settled." Lu Rui decided.

In fact, Gu Jiu's deeper thought was that it would be better to use this thing to set up a mountain protection formation. In this way, the safety factor of staying in the sect and growing up obscenely can be improved. Well, I will have to encourage the sect leader later.

This time the secret realm is over. It only took three days to complete, which was faster than expected. Gu Jiu originally expected it to take five days, but he didn't expect it to go so smoothly.

Everyone came out of the teleportation gate of the stone room. After exiting the teleportation gate, they were surprised to find that they were teleported directly back to the square at the gate of the secret realm. According to the previous plan, before leaving the secret realm, I had to gather a wave of wool that was rich in spiritual energy in the secret realm.

So the five of them started meditating in the square. The whole twelve days of cultivation is much better than months outside. In the middle, Gu Jiu, a hard-working child, had to get up from time to time to light a fire and make food. The others just took Bigu Pill and practiced seriously.

Thanks to the holy level skills given by Gu Jiu and his own physical constitution, Shen Nian broke through two levels in twelve days and is now in the late stage of foundation building, reaching the eighth level. And Gu Jiu, a person with messy spiritual roots, could only improve his three-level body-refining cultivation to reach the fifth-level body-refining level. This was the prerequisite for him to have the "Lan Qi Method".

Lu Rui was promoted from the sixth level of foundation building to the seventh level. Tan Shuyi was promoted from the fifth floor to the sixth floor. Qiu Junhao had just reached the fourth level of foundation building, so he was still a little short of breaking through to the fifth level.

At the last moment of the twelfth day of gathering wool from the secret realm, the five members of the secret realm team walked out of the secret realm with satisfaction.

Everyone felt refreshed and refreshed, watching the morning sun shining on the Wangyou Lake with sparkling waves. It was a beautiful sight that was seven-quarters comfortable and three-quarters pleasurable.

"Old old, do you have any fishing gear?" Shen Nian turned around and looked at Gu Jiu expectantly.

"Uh, yes." Gu Jiu forgot that the fishing gear was in the ring when he went back from fishing last time. This would be just the right time, "Hey, let's get going."

Shen Nian, who is new to the game, is extremely excited when he thinks about the feeling of catching fish. He led everyone to the place where they fished last time and sat around the table under the tree planted by Lu Rui. There were only four chairs and stools last time, so Gu Jiu was rushed to make another one, while the four of them started boiling water and making tea under the tree.

Gu Jiu came back from making the stool, but before she could sit firmly on her buttocks, she was rushed to set up a fishing rod stand and open a fishing bait nest. Gu suddenly felt that dragging Shen Nian into a fishing trap might be a wrong choice. Wouldn't it be troublesome for him? Together with this girl, she only needs to carry the pole to catch the fish, and she has to do all the other chores. Alas, it was a miscalculation.

Fortunately, it was still early when we left the secret realm, so we caught a lot of fish in the morning, nearly twenty of them, and now the black-finned spirit fish was enough to make many talismans.

It was also the first time for Tan Shuyi and Qiu Junhao to participate in their leisurely activities. It was very fresh. Compared with the boring training in the sect every day, this was really fun. This time in the secret realm, the secret realm team established a deep friendship, and Gu Jiu couldn't help but think of a word, "team building." Later, the small team also often went to Danfeng for gatherings, but this is a story later.
