Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 535 - 250: Discovering the Mine, Escaping Danger, Seventh Prince

"Yongyi, there’s no need to rush. Let’s restore your mana first."

Fu Yongyi originally intended to push forward all at once, but now his mana was exhausted. Considering his level of cultivation, it was already difficult to activate the spiritual artifact.

He immediately nodded slightly.

Thus, several months passed.

The group still had nothing to show for their efforts. Master Yunbo had already given up hope. Taking advantage of Fu Yongyi going down to survey, he whispered to Liuu Meizhen:

"Lady of the House, with the journey we’ve undertaken so far, it’s been two years. If we wait any longer, I’m afraid the Cui Family might seize the last spot for the Eighth-Grade Noble Family."

"While we still have time, we should consider other methods. If nothing else works, we should attack directly."

Even Fu Yongyi himself had lost confidence.

Liuu Meizhen, however, remained unmoved.

She said calmly:

"There isn’t a single Ninth-Grade Noble Family in the Cui Family’s domain. It’s not so easy for them to seize the spot. Let’s wait a bit longer. I believe in Yongyi."

Master Yunbo had tried to persuade her.

Seeing Liuu Meizhen not listening to him, he could only stand by anxiously.

In the meantime, Grandmaster Yu took the opportunity to perform a sacrificial refinement of a set of Three Talents Mysterious Array.

Another half month passed.

Deep underground.

Fu Yongyi had a persistent sense of frustration in his heart.

The absolute trust Liuu Meizhen gave him slowly helped him adjust his previously wavering mindset.

When searching for the mineral source again.

He was less anxious.

It was only because his cultivation level was too low that he could at most activate the Treasure Hunting Device twice a day, causing the entire survey process to appear extremely slow.

"Phew~"

Fu Yongyi took a deep breath.

As usual, he activated the Treasure Hunting Device vigorously.

Suddenly.

Buzz!

The Treasure Hunting Device trembled slightly.

This indicated that a mineral source indeed existed nearby.

Fu Yongyi’s eyes lit up with joy.

After spending more than half a year.

Finally, perseverance paid off.

He didn’t claim credit immediately; without seeing physical evidence, it was still too early to say anything.

He changed his technique once more.

As the hoarse spell sounded, the Treasure Hunting Device vibrated more intensely.

Following this.

Boom!

A strand of light rose from the Treasure Hunting Device.

According to usual experience.

A talisman formed by a strand of light represents a Tier One Mineral Source.

Fu Yongyi watched the Treasure Hunting Device nervously.

If it were only a Tier One Mineral Source.

It probably wouldn’t entice the Eighth-Grade Tang Family.

Buzz!

The Treasure Hunting Device shuddered again.

A second thread of treasure light gently rose, converging with the previous one in midair. After a slight tremor, it transformed into a two-colored talisman:

"It’s a Tier Two Ore Source!!"

Fu Yongyi’s pale face revealed a look of surprise and delight.

In this way.

Their goal for this trip had been half-achieved:

"At least I didn’t let my mother down."

The two-colored talisman floated forward.

Finally landing a hundred feet away in front of him.

Fu Yongyi collected his technique, closed his eyes, and the strange color in them dissipated, although his eyes were now bloodshot, they glowed with excitement.

His right hand formed a technique.

A strand of spiritual power turned into a blade, slicing down the stone in front.

After cutting open the imperfect stone.

At this moment.

The surface of the cut stone displayed a layer of misty halo.

The halo seemed to have two colors flowing continuously, resembling the Yin Yang Qi in the Tai Chi Diagram, with black and white light intertwining and intertwining, yet distinctly demarcated:

"This is...."

Fu Yongyi carefully examined it for a few moments.

But this spiritual material.

It was his first time seeing it:

"Perhaps Grandpa Yu knows."

Fu Yongyi took out the Communication Jade Talisman to send a message to Liuu Meizhen and the other two in the Autumn Mountain Cave.

After receiving the message, Master Yunbo paused for a moment.

Having struggled for half a year.

He thought it was hopeless.

He never expected Fu Yongyi to actually find a mineral vein.

The three of them quickly joined Fu Yongyi in Butterfly Valley and then proceeded to the underground where the mineral source was discovered.

Master Yunbo quickly stepped forward.

With a wave of his sleeve.

The misty halo dispersed.

Several peculiar crystals embedded in the stone wall came into view:

"What kind of mineral source is this?"

Master Yunbo couldn’t recognize it.

Liuu Meizhen turned to look at Grandmaster Yu, who raised an eyebrow and said:

"This is a Yin Yang Profound Stone. The Yin-Yang Power it contains can be used to refine Tier Two Spiritual Artifacts or serve as the core material for Array Hubs, driving the operation of the entire array with its Yin-Yang Power. Although its tier is only Tier Two Middle-Grade, it is quite rare and can fetch a higher price in the marketplace compared to common Tier Two High-Grade ore sources."

Upon hearing this, Master Yunbo’s face broke into a flower-like smile.

In this way.

They now had leverage for negotiation with the Tang Family.

After complimenting Fu Yongyi, he quickly asked:

"Yongyi, based on your recent survey, is this Yin Yang Profound Stone ore source large or medium-sized?"

Fu Yongyi shook his head.

Earlier, he only just pinpointed the exact location of the mineral vein.

As for the quantity, it would take time to explore further.

Hearing this, Liuu Meizhen nodded and said:

"No rush. Before that, we’ll need to trouble Uncle Yu to set up an array in Butterfly Valley for some concealment."

"Okay."

Grandmaster Yu was well-prepared.

After the four of them resurfaced from underground.

Master Yunbo and Liuu Meizhen assisted on the sides while Grandmaster Yu took charge of arranging the array. By dawn, a Three Talents Mysterious Array was completed, and the entire valley was enveloped by a white light curtain.

With one of Grandmaster Yu’s techniques infused into the Central Array Plate.

The light curtain trembled slightly.

Suddenly it vanished from sight.

No one knew.

That there was an array placed in the seemingly spiritual-energy-barren Butterfly Valley.

After a brief rest, Liuu Meizhen said:

"Uncle Yu, the three of you will stay in Butterfly Valley while I’ll head to Cloud Dragon Marketplace to gather some information."

"Alright."

The three immediately nodded.

Grandmaster Yu needed to guard the array, Fu Yongyi needed to survey the mineral source, and while Master Yunbo wanted to tag along, he feared unintentionally being noticed by the Yum Family, which could lead to unnecessary trouble.
