The value of a top-grade source-level divine herb was immeasurable. It could greatly increase one's chances of breaking through to the Origin Source realm. It was extremely tempting to Divine Masters. No wonder Dandan had such an expression.
Lu Ming was certain that the Primordial Light Race had many such source-level divine herbs. He had seen more than one at the Primordial Sacred Mountain.
With a wave of his hand, Lu Ming stored the source-level divine herb in the Chaos Ring. Then, he had Dandan undo the seal.
He let it roam freely in the Chaos Ring. It was best to let such a top-grade source-level divine herb roam freely. After all, it couldn't run away from the Chaos Ring.
"There doesn't seem to be any danger in the Channel of Qi. Why don't we take all the treasures here first and let them fight for the treasures above?"
Dandan said.
"That's what I was thinking!"
Lu Ming nodded. Then, he released Xie Nianqing, Qiu Yue, and the others. They put on Dandan's armor and began to search the area.
Soon, they made a major discovery.
Divine herbs, a large number of divine herbs.
The environment in the deepest part of the Channel of Qi was truly unique. There were large patches of divine herbs.
Most of them were primary grade divine herbs. Lu Ming and the others found at least a few hundred of them.
Most of their medicinal power was much stronger than the primary grade divine herbs outside.
The energy contained in a few hundred primary grade divine herbs was extremely shocking.
Moreover, there were a few source-level divine herbs.
Unfortunately, they didn't find any top-grade source-level divine herbs.
"A vein of ore, a vein of Primordial Crystals. Hahaha, we're rich. We're rich."
Dandan suddenly laughed.
They continued to dig in an area where there were main grade divine medicines. Finally, they saw a vein of Primeval Crystals.
It looked similar to the vein they had found last time. Countless Primordial Crystals were embedded in a transparent rock.
Lu Ming and the others began their "arduous" struggle.
They peeled away the surrounding rocks, revealing a large vein of Primordial Crystals.
A vein of Primordial Crystals as large as a mountain range appeared before them.
Their eyes widened, and then they revealed looks of excitement.
"This … How many Prehistoric Crystals are there?"
Dandan was dumbfounded, his eyes shining.
"At the very least, there must be tens of billions of Desolate Crystals!"
Tang Jun also exclaimed in shock. Even though she was experienced and knowledgeable, she was still shocked to see so many Desolation Crystals at once.
"Lu Ming, the energy you need is finally enough."
Xie Nianqing looked at Lu Ming and whispered.
"Not bad, it's finally enough!"
Lu Ming nodded. He then activated the Ancient Desolation Ring and put the entire Ancient Desolation Crystal mineral vein into it.
"Lu Ming, what are you going to do next? Are you going to stay here and refine the Desolation Crystals to make a breakthrough, or are you going to fight for the treasures?"
Dandan asked Lu Ming.
If they broke through their cultivation first, their battle prowess would definitely skyrocket.
The Desolation Crystals here were enough for Lu Ming to make a breakthrough. The remaining Desolation Crystals would be enough for the others to make a breakthrough.
Lu Ming's current cultivation was only at the eighth tier of the Divine Master Realm, but his battle prowess was already so strong. Once he broke through to the ninth tier of the Divine Master Realm, his battle prowess would undoubtedly be even more shocking. It would even be possible for him to rival the Ye Immortal.
However, there was a problem. Time.
If Lu Ming wanted to make a breakthrough, he would have to refine at least five billion Desolation Crystals or even more. Even with Dandan's Great Heavenly Refining Origin Formation, it would still take a long time to refine such a terrifying amount of Desolation Crystals.
It would take at least a year.
In such a long time, the treasures above would have already been snatched up by the Ye Immortal or the Primordial Light Race.
However, they were not strong enough to compete with the Ye Immortal or the Primordial Light Race if they really encountered precious treasures.
Lu Ming was also a little hesitant.
Lu Ming thought for a while and said, "We should be directly above the core peak of the meridian. Let's go up along this path and see what's going on. If it doesn't work, we'll find a place to refine the Desolation Crystals and make a breakthrough."
This was a compromise.
They would go up first and see if they could succeed. If they could, they would decisively seize the treasures. If not, they would retreat.
"Alright, let's do that."
The others nodded.
Then, the group flew up.
There were no cracks above them. They planned to break through the rocks and enter the peak.
Soon, they encountered rocks. They took out their divine weapons and started to dig.
However, they soon stopped because they encountered an obstacle.
There was a black metal in the rocks.
This black metal was very hard. Even if Lu Ming and the others tried their best to break it open, it would take a long time.
"Is this Black Star Iron?"
Dandan muttered.
"Yes, this is Black Star Iron. It's a material that can be used to refine master-grade divine weapons. I didn't expect there to be so much here."
Tang Jun nodded.
They had just dug dozens of miles and found that it was all Black Star Iron. The amount of Black Star Iron here was shockingly large.
However, they were pressed for time and didn't have that much time to dig.
"Qiuqiu, we're counting on you."
Lu Ming said to Qiuqiu.
"No problem. Watch me."
Qiuqiu revealed two rows of sharp teeth. With a crunch, a large piece of Black Star Iron was bitten off.
Crunch, crunch …
Chunks of Black Star Iron were bitten off. Lu Ming waved his hand and put it away.
Since it was bitten off, it would be a waste not to take it.
Qiuqiu didn't like to eat metals of this level because they weren't very effective. He wanted to eat metals that could be used to refine source-grade divine weapons.
Soon, Qiuqiu dug a huge tunnel that extended all the way up.
In less than half an hour, the Black Star Iron was dug through.
"Nestle, Dark Divine Gold. There's so much Dark Divine Gold here …"
Suddenly, Qiuqiu shouted excitedly.
Lu Ming's heart skipped a beat.
Dark Divine Gold was a top-grade metal that could be used to refine source-grade divine weapons.
Could there be one here?
They quickly passed through the tunnel and saw a strange metal.
This metal was too dark. It was darker than darkness. There was no light at all.
Lu Ming stretched out his finger. His finger was like a spear gleam, piercing the black metal. However, it only left a shallow dent on the black metal.
"It's really Dark Divine Gold. Qiuqiu, dig it all out."
Lu Ming said excitedly.
A metal that could be used to refine source-grade divine weapons was definitely precious. Since they had encountered it, they couldn't miss it.
"Leave it to me …"
Qiuqiu shouted excitedly. He opened his mouth and began to dig.
He started to dig along the edge of the Dark Divine Gold.
The edge of the Dark Divine Gold was Black Star Iron. It would be much faster to dig like this.
As Qiuqiu dug, they found that there was an astonishing amount of Dark Divine Gold here.
It took them a few hours to dig out all the Dark Divine Gold in this area. There were at least a few hundred million catties.
Refining an source-grade divine weapon required about a few hundred thousand catties of Dark Divine Gold. There was at least enough to refine a thousand source-grade divine weapons.
