Tang Ning flipped the black flag back and forth for a while, then stood it beside her body and entered the flag with her consciousness to explore its internal structure.

Inside it was a miniature world, with a radius of more than twenty feet, and a thick black fog shrouded the surroundings. Tangning's consciousness wandered inside and found many almost transparent human figures.

These human forms are formed by spiritual power, because the spiritual power after death contains the remaining memories of the person's life, so the spiritual power is transformed into the appearance in life.

The black mist is constantly devouring spiritual power to nourish itself. Some of the black mist has slowly condensed into a certain shape. Some have grown horns, and some have even grown facial features, with eyes, noses, mouths and ears.

, and it turned out to be the ferocious-looking ghost head.

Tang Ning continued to wander forward, and saw a complete human form transformed from huge spiritual power standing there in front of him. Seven or eight ghost heads were gnawing at him around him. The man's facial features were clear and his figure was tall and straight. He was Wang Zhen.

At this time, he had been bitten off by the ghost head from his legs to his waist. Not far from the ghost head, there was a green light wandering, which was the consciousness wrapped in spiritual power.

Tang Ning understood that it must be the remaining thoughts of the demon sect monks who controlled the black flag. Because of his death, the remaining thoughts of the spiritual consciousness in the black flag became stupid. He showed no mercy and moved his huge spiritual consciousness towards the green ball.

The light rushed away and swallowed it up in three strokes, five divided by two.

After erasing the consciousness left by the demon sect monk in the banner, Tang Ning wandered inside for a long time before exiting the black banner. She tapped it lightly, and the spiritual power in her body was continuously injected into the black banner.

Although the damage to this flag is not minor, fortunately there is no major internal damage. As long as there is enough spiritual energy to nourish it, it should be restored to its original state.

The Demon Sect disciple put away the black flag as soon as the golden light attacked, otherwise he would be in trouble if he suffered heavy internal damage.

Although this flag is a high-grade spiritual weapon, it can swallow spiritual power to nourish and strengthen itself. Previously, the disciples of the Demon Sect killed many monks and absorbed their spiritual power, so it is somewhat more powerful than ordinary high-grade spiritual weapons.

But after this battle, the ghost heads in the black banner were almost wiped out by Jiang Yuhuan's golden spiritual mirror, and their power has been greatly reduced. If they were to fight against the enemy now, their power would only be equivalent to that of a mid-grade spiritual weapon.

I don't know how long it took, but Tangning opened his eyes and took a deep breath. All the spiritual energy in his body had been poured into the black flag, but its surface did not change at all, it was still as dim and dull.

Tang Ning knew that repairing this flag would not be accomplished overnight, so she was not discouraged. High-grade spiritual weapons could not be obtained easily.

If this black flag is placed in the market, its value will not be less than 60,000 spiritual stones, even if it is in a damaged state, because it has room for growth and cannot simply be judged by the price of a top-grade spiritual weapon.

It is no exaggeration to say that a good spiritual weapon is almost priceless in Xingang. The reason is very simple: the demand is high and the supply is low.

Within the Qianyi Sect, there are no more than two people who have the ability to refine high-grade spiritual weapons.

Spiritual weapons cannot be refined casually. In addition to the high level of the weapon refiner, the more important thing is the refining materials. The most basic materials such as mica stone, fire ore, and earth silver are not available in Xingang. The three major

Xuanmen are all purchased from outside.

And these are only the most basic things for refining spiritual weapons, not to mention the main materials and auxiliary materials of spiritual weapons. They are all rare and rare things in Xingang.

This leads to a vicious cycle. Without the refining materials, the craftsman will not be good at it. If you are not good at it, people will not give it to you for refining even if they get good materials.

Weapon refining, like elixir refining, requires a lot of experience. Just relying on a set of weapon refining methods and a roll of weapons cannot produce a weapon refining master.

The two weapon refiners of the Qianyi Sect were specially trained by the sect. They spent a lot of money to buy many precious materials and gave them to them for refining to raise these two people.

Otherwise, it would be too unreasonable for a mighty Xuanmen to be unable to even produce a top-grade spiritual weapon.

Refining a spiritual weapon is a very labor-intensive task, much more troublesome than refining an elixir. If the two of Qian Yizong were to prepare all the good materials for him, it would take him at least several months and at most half a year to refine it. A top-grade spiritual weapon.

Based on the prices recognized by the cultivation world, a low-grade spiritual weapon is worth about 10,000 spiritual stones, a medium-grade spiritual weapon is worth 30,000 spiritual stones, and a high-grade spiritual weapon is no less than 50,000.

For top-grade spiritual weapons, the base price is 80,000 yuan. If you buy them in Xingang Broken Ridge Mountain, the price of top-grade spiritual weapons will be about 10% higher, and the price of top-grade spiritual weapons will be 15% higher, because the items are so rare. Because it is expensive, there are more wolves and less meat.

With his salary of five hundred spiritual stones per month, it would take him ten years to save for a high-grade spiritual weapon. The plight of the disciples of the small sect is evident.

Tangning took a closer look at Black Banner. After absorbing so much spiritual energy, it would be great if she could even see some signs of recovery.

Finally, he sighed slightly, put away the black flag, turned his right hand to take out a porcelain bottle, poured out a vitality pill, swallowed it in one gulp, and meditated to refine the energy to restore the spiritual power in the body.

The detailed investigation and interrogation of the Ling Mine has ended. Among the three suspicious disciples, two are from the Shuiyun Sect and one is from the Qingyang Sect.

The remaining matters are left to their respective sects. It is up to them to investigate openly or covertly.

For three days in a row, Tang Ning did not leave the room, thinking only about repairing the black flag. On the fourth day, Fang Xiang Ming summoned everyone because the sect's decree finally came, allowing them to continue to stay in the spirit mine and serve as spirit masters. Guard the mine to prevent the Demon Sect from attacking again until the new spiritual mine array is deployed.

In addition, Shuiyun and Qingyang sects will launch a new round of encirclement and suppression of the remnants of the Demon Sect within their sects, and order them to cooperate when necessary.

"When will the guard formation of this spiritual mine be re-arranged?" Qian Mu, the director directly under the Secret Academy, asked.

"This..." Fang Xiangming paused: "To be honest, no one knows at the moment. The three Taoist sects are currently discussing relevant matters."

"Discuss, what are we discussing? Didn't the sect say that we will rebuild the formation? Is it possible that the spiritual mine can be defended without the formation?"

"Of course the big formation needs it, but the question is how to distribute the spiritual stones. Such a big formation should cost at least several million spiritual stones! It's not owned by any one company alone. It must be jointly contributed. How? In what proportion? Don’t we need to discuss it?”

"Wouldn't it be better if the three families share it?"

Fang Xiangming sighed: "Junior Brother Qian, what you said is too simple. If this is the case, why should we discuss it? The Qingyang Sect and the Shuiyun Sect are mainly responsible for the attack on the Lingmine. The Qingyang Sect is guarding the Lingmine." Senior He left the mine privately, leaving no one to guard him, and Xiao Sihua, the director of the Shuiyun Sect's spiritual mine, opened a large formation without permission, causing the Demon Sect to take advantage of it, so don't the two of them need to be held responsible?"

"And the spirit stones that were taken away are the assets of our sect. Who will bear this loss? The reconstruction of the formation is for the safe mining of the spirit mines, not for the personal gain of any one company. The three families you mentioned share it, Shuiyun Sect, Qingyang Sect has no objection, but our sect will suffer a huge loss, how can the headmaster agree?"

"This..." Qian Mu was speechless for a moment.

Fang Xiangming continued: "Even if the three companies have negotiated, this array cannot be bought casually. You have to say hello to the Baoxing Chamber of Commerce first, and then wait for them to "purchase" the goods. In my opinion, , nothing can be done within a year and a half.

………

In the main hall of Qianxing Mountain of the Qian Yizong, the headmaster Wei Xuande and the masters of the three halls and three courtyards gathered together.

"Master, why are you summoning me so urgently? Shi Mingsui asked.

Wei Xuande said: "Just now, the headmaster of Shuiyun Sect received news that many foundation-building monks have appeared in Qi Kingdom recently. They are all new faces. After investigation by Shuiyun Sect, it was found that these people all flew from Laogang."

"Oh? How many people are there from Laogang?" Cheng Shuimin asked with a look on his face.

"A lot. I don't know the exact number yet, but there are no less than a hundred people."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked. It would definitely not be a good thing for so many foundation-building monks to gather in Xingang. This force could compete with a sect.

Shi Mingsui hurriedly asked: "Which force does it belong to? The Chamber of Commerce or the aristocratic family?"

Wei Xuande shook his head, with a worried look on his face: "We don't know yet, but we can't rule out the worst possibility."

Luo Qingshui frowned: "The leader means that he is from the Demon Sect?"

"No way! Why did the demon sect come to our new port? There are no resources here, and there are no spiritual mines or spiritual veins. Which port island on the Qinghai Islands is not better than this one? They don't want such a good place, and come to our poor mountains and rivers It’s crazy to seize cultivation resources.” Geng Tong frowned.

It can be said that the cultivation resources in Xingang are extremely poor. The reason why there are still three Xuanmen sects here has its own special reasons.

The reason why the Qianyi Sect established its sect here is because it discovered a space passage for the demons to lead to this world, which is the secret realm sealed in the back mountain.

Therefore, Taixuanzong sent his sect disciple Li Qianyi to establish a sect here to suppress and guard this secret realm.

The Shuiyun Sect and the Qingyang Sect established their sects here earlier than the Qianyi Sect. They were originally small sects in the Mubei Grassland. They were killed by the demon clan, so they fled away from the Mubei Grassland and came to Qinghai Baidao. .

Since other Hong Kong islands with spiritual mines and spiritual veins have been occupied, we had to temporarily establish a foothold in Xingang and make further measurements.

This stay has been here for many years. The three sects originally had Nascent Soul monks. This is the most basic condition for establishing a sect. You must have a Nascent Soul monk or above, and then report and get the Taixuan Sect Only with permission can a sect be established, otherwise it will be an illegal organization.

Not to mention that the Demon Sect will attack you, even Xuanmen can destroy and annex you at any time.

When the three sects established their sects in Xingang, they did not report to Taixuanzong specifically. They only reported it when Taixuanzong's inspection envoys came.

This is not to say that Xingang is lonely and lonely. Only when the mountains are high and the emperor is far away can they dare to do this. No matter how far away it is, even if it is the ends of the earth, as long as the Xuanmen territory has been reported and applied for, the sect can be established. However, the situation of the three sects is special. The Qianyi Sect is originally the Taixuan Sect. The disciples sent me.

The Shuiyun Qingyang Sect itself has the qualifications of a Xuanmen sect. If you insist on it, at most it was just moved to another place without reporting it, and no one's interests were infringed.

When the three sects first settled in Xingang, there were Nascent Soul monks in the sects.

But since the sect was established here, the previous generations of leaders have passed away one after another, and there are no more monks who can break through the Nascent Soul. Why is this?

It’s not that there are no disciples with excellent qualifications, but that the surrounding cultivation resources are too scarce. To cultivate an outstanding disciple, in addition to having bright qualifications, cultivation resources are the top priority. It’s like a baby who has been malnourished since he was a child. How can he grow up?

Become a strong man?

Wei Xuande's face became more worried.

Upon seeing this, Peng Wanli asked: "Does the leader have any inferences in his mind?"
