Chapter 2435: You Found All of These Yourself?
Carson Flores moved like a fish, swimming underground, and it didn’t take him long to collect all the Phoenix Fire Crystal Stones beneath the surface.
One hundred and twenty-five Phoenix Fire Crystal Stones.
Two clusters of Phoenix Fire.
The Phoenix Fire Crystal Stone helps fire attribute cultivators in their cultivation, and the Phoenix Fire is even more effective, but no one dares to secretly absorb the Phoenix Fire.
The unique Fire Essence of the Phoenix Fire leaves one carrying its aura if they absorb it for cultivation.
In the Rift Canyon camp, there is a magical treasure specifically designed to detect the aura of Fire Essence. If someone secretly absorbs Phoenix Fire for cultivation, they will be sensed by the magical treasure and suffer a tragic end.
As for hiding the Phoenix Fire away, there’s really no need.
First, Steward Roth issues a limited number of porcelain bottles to collect Phoenix Fire to everyone. The number of Phoenix Fires collected, bottles used, and bottles left must match up, preventing anyone from secretly stashing Phoenix Fire.
Second, though Phoenix Fire is excellent, the benefit of a single cluster doesn’t bring about a dramatic change, so even if you secretly stashed ten or a hundred clusters, what good would it do?
Risking annihilation isn’t worth it. Besides, the Phoenix Fire you contribute earns you points, which you can exchange for other cultivation resources.
The red-clad woman, a Quasi-Saint, traverses spaces to explore world after world, holding an overwhelming amount of resources. While ordinary cultivators might find them hard to come by, most are available for exchange if you have enough points.
With such a system in place, who would choose to stash them secretly?
Many non-fire attribute cultivators also trade their Phoenix Fire Crystal Stones for points to exchange for useful items to enhance their strength.
According to Carson Flores’ understanding, while no one can know what the deceased might think, many veteran cultivators indulge in the addictive feeling of fast-paced cultivation, feeling a mix of pain and joy.
Even Carson Flores, new to this environment, felt a subconscious appreciation for these fruitful days after acquiring such a bounty of Phoenix Fire Crystal Stones.
Though this red-clad woman recruited so many people, she didn’t skimp on rewards for them.
The spatial tycoon is just that generous!
Carson Flores composed himself and continued on.
In the blink of an eye, five days passed, and Carson Flores discovered five new sites rich in Phoenix Fire Crystal Stones, acquiring four hundred and thirty stones and four clusters of Phoenix Fire, a rather fortunate ratio.
Carson Flores returned to the rift camp.
Carson Flores went straight to the management office, intending to submit the Phoenix Fire. As for the Phoenix Fire Crystal Stones, Carson Flores planned to keep them to enhance his own strength.
Besides the Phoenix Fire Crystal Stones, Carson Flores discovered a high-quality mineral vein, though he didn’t yet possess the ability to extract it himself, thus intending to report its location for points.
Some ten cultivators were in line at the management office; they too had returned from their adventures, ready to submit Phoenix Fire and exchange other goods for points.
Carson Flores observed that those ahead in line each had Phoenix Fire, some a cluster, others two, but no more than that.
Soon, the exchange of goods was finished, and it was Carson Flores’ turn.
"4494, you’re new here, aren’t you?"
Carson Flores nodded, "Yes."
The man behind the desk checked Carson Flores’ tag, "You’ve been out for eight days. Did you bring back anything?"
Carson Flores smiled, "Quite a bit."
Carson Flores placed six porcelain bottles on the desk.
The recording man raised his head in surprise, "Six clusters of Phoenix Fire?"
Carson Flores nodded, "Yes, besides that, I also discovered a high-quality mineral vein, it’s a Golden Bloom Iron Mine, stretching for a hundred miles. I can’t extract the entire vein myself..."
The surrounding people, hearing Carson Flores was a newcomer, instinctively turned their attention to see if he had made any gains.
Carson Flores’ revelations made their expressions freeze.
Six clusters of Phoenix Fire!
Didn’t that mean he found at least six or seven hundred Phoenix Fire Crystal Stones or maybe even more?
And not just that, he found a high-quality mineral vein!
In eight days, he accomplished two months worth of work!
He could spend the remaining fifty plus days simply relaxing and cultivating at the camp!
The recording man also seemed slightly incredulous and inspected each bottle to confirm they contained Phoenix Fire.
"4494, six clusters of Phoenix Fire, a mineral vein... provide me with the location of the vein, and I’ll send someone to extract it. After the vein is successfully extracted, you’ll receive corresponding points based on its quality. Any questions?"
Carson Flores shook his head, "No."
The rules here were clear, Carson Flores really had no queries.
If he wished, he could now relax at the camp indefinitely, a luxury that serves as a cultivation time source for many.
Just as Carson Flores was about to leave, someone beside him couldn’t help but ask, "Did you encounter any Fire Crocodiles while finding so many Phoenix Fires?"
Carson Flores turned back, "Are you referring to the kind that’s twenty or thirty meters long and resembles crocodile-shaped demonic beasts?"
"Yes, did you encounter them?"
Carson Flores nodded, "I did."
The crowd’s faces grew even more astonished as they looked at Carson Flores, "You didn’t get hurt at all?"
