Shan Shiweng also looked at Zhao Hao. "Has your plan been perfected?"
Zhao Hao said, "At least we can restore this Giant Spirit Magnetite vein to 70% of its former heyday."
As these words were spoken, the spirits of all the Infinite Boundless Mountain martial practitioners were greatly boosted.
At present, the Giant Spirit Magnetite vein of Cloud Portent Mountain only had about forty percent of its production at its peak.
For the sake of security, Infinite Boundless Mountain restricted their mining, only about twenty to thirty percent of what it had been in the past.
Regarding the matter of the Giant Spirit Magnetite, the degree of urgency Infinite Boundless Mountain felt could be seen from this.
Zhao Hao was confident that he could restore the Giant Spirit Magnetite vein to 70%. It seemed like it was still far from 100%, but it had already nearly doubled the current level. How could Shan Shiweng and the others not be moved?
Hearing his words, Yan Zhaoge smiled slightly, "I have two methods. One can restore it to seventy percent, the other to ninety percent."
Hearing his words, Zhao Hao knit his brows slightly, gazing at Yan Zhaoge.
The crowd immediately quieted down. Shan Shiweng, the Left Elder, and the Mystic Stone Elder looked at each other.
The problem that had plagued Infinite Boundless Mountain for so many years, not only could it be solved by Yan Zhaoge, there was even more than one way to solve it?
First not mentioning that method of recovering seventy percent, if he could really recover ninety percent, nearing his peak condition, that would be too terrifying, even completely surpassing Infinite Boundless Mountain's expectations.
And the twenty percent advantage over Zhao Hao just so happened to surpass Infinite Boundless Mountain's bottom line.
If Yan Zhaoge's method only had an eighty percent chance of success, then Infinite Boundless Mountain might still choose Zhao Hao. After all, Zhao Hao was a disciple of their clan.
Choosing to listen to Broad Creed Mountain's Yan Zhaoge, there was the possibility of being controlled by others.
However, ninety against seventy, this caused Infinite Boundless Mountain to hesitate.
Especially because of the great fire just now, Yan Zhaoge had accurately judged the reason for the vein's weakening, something that Zhao Hao had not been able to do.
The reason why those of Infinite Boundless Mountain had doubts towards Zhao Hao's method was because they felt that even though Zhao Hao had proposed a method, he still had the feeling of knowing the way but not knowing why.
Before Shan Shiweng had left Infinite Boundless Mountain, the higher echelons of the clan, Infinite Boundless Mountain's Chief included, had already discussed various possibilities, coming up with plans to deal with them.
Therefore, the current situation was not to the extent that he was at a loss of ideas, and there was no need for him to specifically ask for instructions.
"A plan on paper is not enough to be relied on. We still need to see the concrete results," Shan Shiweng said in a deep voice. "Is it convenient for the two of you to reveal the specific situation?"
Yan Zhaoge smiled slightly, "Practical testing surpasses empty words. I also agree with this point."
"My method produces instant results. I can completely verify it right now and produce results on the spot."
"Although it doesn't immediately achieve the desired effect, I can already make a rough estimate based on the recovery progress."
"The final concrete effect can also be tested through the passage of time. During this period of time, I will also remain at Cloud Portent Mountain to observe the effects."
Shan Shiweng and the others were slightly taken aback. Unexpectedly, Zhao Hao coldly said, "My method is also very effective."
Looking at Yan Zhaoge, there was clearly some doubt within his gaze.
He had only managed to recover the Giant Spirit Magnetite vein by chance when he had unearthed some remnant remains of the Giant Spirit Sect of pre-Great Calamity times and learnt of the method to restore it.
He had not thought much of it before; what did the life and death of Infinite Boundless Mountain have to do with him?
Now that he was going to stand out in Infinite Boundless Mountain, it just so happened to be put to good use.
However, to restore the Giant Spirit Magnetite vein to ninety percent, he also did not have the confidence to do so.
After the Golden Needle Liberating Pill technique and the Heavenly Abyss Reverse Flow Art dispelling the miasma qi in the Sealing Dragon Abyss, Zhao Hao would no longer underestimate Yan Zhaoge now.
Yan Zhaoge claiming to be able to restore the vein to ninety percent, Zhao Hao, who had continuously suffered losses at his hands, was currently indeed somewhat doubtful.
However, this also caused his hatred towards Yan Zhaoge to grow more and more obvious, "In the Eastern Tang, it was you who continuously spoiled my plans. Now, in Infinite Boundless Mountain, it is you who obstructs my path to ascension!"
"Yan Zhaoge, Broad Creed Mountain; it is indeed still best if you are destroyed."
Zhao Hao had always been arrogant and haughty, regarding no one else. In the end, he had suffered at Yan Zhaoge's hands time and time again.
Initially, he had found Yan Zhaoge to be an eyesore because of Broad Creed Mountain. Now, however, his hatred towards Yan Zhaoge had already surpassed his hatred towards Broad Creed Mountain.
Shan Shiweng and Elder Zuo both looked towards the Magnetite Elder. After pondering for a moment, the Magnetite Elder nodded, "With this old man watching over it, we can try. It will not affect the entire vein."
"Since that is so, let's see the methods of the two of you," Shan Shiweng's gaze swept across Yan Zhaoge and Zhao Hao, "Who will go first?"
While Zhao Hao had become wary of Yan Zhaoge, his own arrogance had not lessened in the slightest as he said calmly, "A guest from afar; he can go first."
"That's why it is said that personality determines destiny." Glancing at Zhao Hao, Yan Zhaoge did not decline as he smiled and nodded, "I'm fine with anything. Since that is so, let me try first."
There would naturally be people in charge of dealing with the aftermath here, while Yan Zhaoge's group descended the mountain and returned to the basin where the Magnetite vein was located.
Most of them remained outside the vein, with only a small portion being allowed to accompany them, entering the depths of the vein together.
Yan Zhaoge came to where the pith of the vein was, with Infinite Boundless Mountain's Magnetite Elder accompanying him.
Where the other party's fist-intent passed, the vein seemed to be enveloped by a formless qi flow, but this did not affect Yan Zhaoge in the slightest.
Carefully feeling the state of the pith of the vein as well as the changes in the spiritual qi of the surrounding earth vein once more, Yan Zhaoge grew more and more confident, "He estimates that his method can allow the vein to recover to seventy percent, but is not clear on the specific reason for its deterioration. Then, his method should be the Broken Vein Flowing Current technique …"
After pondering for a moment, Yan Zhaoge made his move.
Not knowing the specific situation, the people standing guard outside were inevitably very anxious.
After who knew how long, everyone felt as though the ground beneath their feet was shaking slightly.
Raising their heads, they saw that in the air above Cloud Portent Mountain, winds were surging and clouds were surging.
Streams of spiritual light shot out from within the mine, a dense, heavy spiritual qi abruptly erupting.
The Infinite Boundless Mountain martial practitioners all had joyful looks on their faces. They could not be any more familiar with this spiritual qi; it was precisely the aura contained within Giant Spirit Magnetite.
Within the vein, carefully feeling the changes in the spiritual qi, a smile instead gradually appeared on Zhao Hao's face.
On the other side, after exchanging glances with the Magnetite Elder and Elder Zuo, Shan Shiweng said slowly, "… You were still holding back?"
Yan Zhaoge smiled slightly, "There's no such thing as the current method; as long as it continues, it will be fine."
Elder Zuo said indifferently, "If it continues, the vein will at most recover to seventy percent."
Fu Enshu also swivelled her head to look at Yan Zhaoge, who smiled unhurriedly, "A method to recover ninety percent might be a little difficult for your clan to accept."
"Therefore, I will first use a technique that recovers 70% of my strength. This technique is called the Penetrating Technique."
Yan Zhaoge glanced at Zhao Hao, "If your clan's disciple's method does not work, then we can just use this method that we are currently carrying out."
Zhao Hao was lost in thought as he stared at the pith before him. Shan Shiweng and the others frowned when they saw this.
Just as everyone was getting impatient, Zhao Hao suddenly smiled and said, "It's my turn."
With that, he began to make his move.
Because his cultivation was still low, there was also the Mystic Stone Elder's cooperation at the side.
The vein shook again, and the Mystic Stone Elder's face gradually revealed joy: "This trend … this trend …"
Shan Shiweng, Elder Zuo, and the others were visibly moved as they carefully examined it.
Although Zhao Ming hadn't finished, their faces were filled with joy. "There's an improvement, and it's not just stopping at 70%!"
"The coverage of the effect has surpassed the previous Penetrating Technique. At this rate, it's very likely to reach more than 80%. Even if it's not 90%, it's close to it!"
Hearing his words, Yan Zhaoge raised his brows.
Fu Enshu frowned.
The other Infinite Boundless Mountain martial practitioners were even more overjoyed.
Zhao Hao suddenly swivelled his head, looking at Yan Zhaoge as he said quietly, "There's also no need for you to take out that ninety percent technique of yours."
Under the premise that the effects were similar, Infinite Boundless Mountain would be able to resolve the problem themselves; why would they need to seek Broad Creed Mountain's help?
Moreover, as Yan Zhaoge had said, the technique that allowed the vein to recover to ninety percent still contained other hidden dangers.
