Kuai Zhengming is the current president of the Yuedong Branch of the Black Clothing Society of Guzhu Kingdom's secret spy organization, and is also Jinyuan's best friend in Guzhu Kingdom for many years.

Jin Ling met him many years ago when Lingshan was looking for the Iron of the King Kong in Lingshan, he saved his lives and his subordinates from Ye Xiao and the Demon Wolf. Later, Kuai Zhengming reciprocated his favor and entered Yuedong Fairy City for the Jinyuan industry, and even opened a convenient door to Guzhu Kingdom. The relationship between the two parties is becoming increasingly close.

If he had nothing to do, he wouldn't have joked about an ordinary thing, "President Kuai, what's this?"

"I don't know what it is." Kuai Zhengming said, "This is obtained by my subordinates and the immortals of the City Lord's Mansion when searching for a black market auction house. You also know that those black market auction houses are strictly prohibited by our country. They do not pay taxes or abide by the rules. If they are left alone, they will have a great impact on their legal industries and the industries in Jinyuan. Recently, due to the Tianyuan Valley, black markets in various parts of the kingdom have begun to become rampant again. In order to avoid taxes, many people will obtain minerals, plants, fairy crystals, monster corpses and even cubs from Tianyuan Valley. In order to avoid taxes, they will live from Tianyuan Valley's minerals, plants, fairy crystals, monster corpses and even cubs.

All the bodies and other things are for sale in the black market. For this reason, the City Lord's Mansion joined forces with us to clear the black market in the city. This thing was found on the black market. In the past, you asked me about the fire essence stone mine in Guzhu. All I could find were passed through your trade routes. I thought this was also a fire essence stone, but if you look closely, it was different. Just by feeling, you can feel that it is warmer than the fire essence stone. We controlled the black market, and the auction house staff said that this was found in a mine pit in Tianyuan Valley."

When Jin Ling picked up the warm mineral, he suddenly felt the fire power in the Xianyu bracelet became active. Previously, when he touched the Fire Essence Stone Mine, he had encountered this situation, but his activity level was far less than this time. With his knowledge, he had no idea that there was such a mineral.

Based on his feelings, he thought this was a mineral similar to the fire essence stone, but the explosive power it contained was far stronger than that of the fire essence stone.

He couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

The most important and unique raw material used by the muskets, fire thunder and other objects used by the Jinyuan muskets team are fire essence stones. Without fire essence stone powder, the Jinyuan muskets team members and all weapons and equipment are just a bunch of decorations. The muskets load into fire essence stone powder, pull the trigger, and fire the essence iron gun bullets, which can cause damage to immortals and immortal master-level immortals within a certain range.

However, as the range of the musket team's battle expanded, the strength of the powerful opponents they encountered was also stronger. Among the previous opponents, it was rare to see one or two of the Immortal Lord level. Now they often meet strong people at the Immortal Lord level and Immortal Sect level. The current muskets' effectiveness cannot cause any substantial damage to Immortal Lord level or even above. This is also a problem that Jin Ling has always had a headache about.

Now, the emergence of this mineral containing much more energy than the fire essence stone has brought hope to him to solve this problem.

"President, is there any such mineral on that black market? As for now, it is of great use to me." He looked at Kuai Zhengming anxiously.

Kuai Zhengming smiled and took four pieces from the ring, "I searched for five pieces in total, weighing about fifteen or sixteen pounds, and I brought them all to you. I guess you like it, it turns out."

"That's great." Jin Ling hurriedly put all the stones into his ring. "I believe there must be something they haven't discovered in that mine. Since it can produce five pieces, there will definitely be a vein. President, I think, if you don't mind, can you hand over those who dig these minerals to me, I need them to lead the way."

Kuai Zhengming laughed, "I knew you would like it! So, when I came, I had brought the person!" shouted to the outside, "Cheng Hai! Bring the person in!"

A moment later, his subordinate Cheng Hai came in with two men covered in dirty mud and brought them to Jin Ling: "Hello, Mr. Jin, these two are the people who dug these ores in the Tianyuan Valley mine. There were eleven people in their team, and three people died in Tianyuan Valley, and six people disappeared. These two people were captured on the spot at the black market auction house."

These two men were originally at the level of immortals, but after being captured, they all lost their meridians and became useless people. The two looked desperate, looking for life and begging for forgiveness.

"Did you get these ores in Tianyuan Valley?" Jin Ling asked.

"Yes, yes, sir." The two men looked sad. They never expected that digging some ore in Tianyuan Valley to sell them would cause such a disaster and their cultivation was destroyed. For people at the Immortal level, it is quite difficult to cultivate to this level. If their cultivation is gone, life is really worse than death. However, judging from the current situation, they may not be able to save their lives.

"I ask you, how did you find these ores, and talk about the process carefully, and don't hide it in a word." Jin Ling said.

"Yes, yes, sir, we dare not hide it." The two looked at each other, and one of them said.

The man said, "Sir, we are from the Xianguo of Xizhao. The people from the Tielang Gang and the people in our gang all make a living by digging minerals to obtain profits. Since the Demon Suppressing Temple allowed people from all sides to enter Tianyuan Valley, we heard the news and formed a team of eleven of the strongest people in the gang to find some rare minerals and sell them for a good price."

"Above the stream in Tianyuan Valley is a waterfall, and below the waterfall is a maze-like cave. Everyone is rumored that there are two-headed spirit snakes in it, searching in that area. Below the stream, there is a valley that was originally an old mine, with a certain amount of refined iron ore and some companion minerals produced. It has been developed for hundreds of years, and the reserves are very small, almost semi-aborted, so there are very few people going there. We, with the mentality of taking chances, and carefully searched in various mines and mines."

"Although there are many people here, we are more proficient in mineral exploration and mining than other forces, so we still have some harvests. In addition to fine iron, we have harvested some black iron, which may be about ten kilograms. You should know that the price of black iron is a hundred times that of gold, so we all think that this trip has made a fortune. But what is even more surprising is still behind. We found a lava place deep in the mine. That is to say, the depths of this valley and the depths of the mine were originally an extinct volcano."

"At the entrance of this lava land, we found this mineral that seemed to contain great heat. They were mixed in some black iron ore, which was considered as a companion mine for these iron ore. Our Iron Gang has been dealing with minerals for many years, but has never seen such things. So we started digging and finally dug out five such ores. Just as we were about to continue digging, some newt-like monsters ran out of the lava, red and covered with scales. They had about twenty heads, and they launched an attack on us at that time. Our eleven Immortals were not their opponents, and three people died on the spot. While they were snatching the bodies of the three, nine of us escaped separately."
