My Fairy Raising Game

One of the greatest advantages of being a disciple of a celestial sect is that, in addition to Taoist scriptures and secret techniques, one can freely acquire common knowledge about the cultivation world.

For example, the Demon Atlas, which records detailed information about the names, characteristics, and weaknesses of various monsters and demons in the cultivation world, as well as the illustrated guides to various rare and precious herbs and medicinal plants, can all be borrowed from the library by spending spirit stones.

Azure Blood Evil Gold is an extremely rare natural treasure, which is transformed and sublimated from Iron Mother.

Iron Mother itself is a superior spiritual material, containing rich metal essence. It is hard and tough, and is an important material for refining magical artifacts and even magical treasures. It is on par with ores such as Geng Gold, Refined Gold, Six Yang Red Copper, and Serpent Silver, and is much stronger than ordinary copper essence and black iron.

When refining magical artifacts such as flying swords and knives, adding a small piece of iron ore can make them sharper and harder, making it the preferred material for refining flying swords.

However, the Azure Blood Cold Gold is a unique type of gold that has been nurtured in the ore vein for too long by the Iron Mother, absorbing too much of the essence of the five metals, the essence of gold and iron, as well as the evil energy from the earth. Some unknown evil creatures, by chance, gradually became spiritual and underwent a kind of transformation.

This rare gold is comparable in quality to the legendary Nine Divine Golds, and is the most precious natural treasure in the Great Luo Dharma Realm. It is used to refine magical artifacts and even spiritual treasures.

Its value is far greater than that of Yuan Xuejiao's Qingli Sword. Even Yin God giants and Yang God powerhouses would be tempted by it!

The only drawback of this item is that although treasures refined from it are very powerful, it is rumored to have some kind of ominous quality, often giving rise to evil spirits. If the cultivator's own strength is insufficient and their status cannot suppress it, they will suffer a backlash.

Therefore, this thing was given the label of "evil".

Of course, almost no one knows whether this rumor is true or false.

But Shen Yu didn't care.

What God does not take, is to be blamed.

Since it has fallen into our hands, we naturally cannot let it go.

As for the possibility of being tainted by bad luck, that's something Shen Yu will need to consider in the future, and what does it have to do with Shen Yu now?

Shen Yu never expected that he would have such an opportunity!

Old Fan covered the stone box with the stone skin again, and the overflowing golden iridescence immediately dimmed. He carefully placed the stone box on the ground and then took a few steps back.

"Young master, I unearthed this treasure by chance, and no one else knows about it except me. Although I don't know what it is, I know it is extremely valuable. If you don't mind, please accept it."

"Really? Aren't you afraid I'll kill you and steal your treasure?"

Shen Yu carefully examined Old Fan's face, only to find that the old man's face showed no abnormality whatsoever, but was filled with a fawning and humble smile, which made one feel a little sad.

"This... Young master is joking. You are an exceptional person, how could you do such a thing?"

Old Fan sighed, "Besides... we cultivators certainly need to be down-to-earth and act prudently. But at crucial moments, we also need the courage and boldness to seize opportunities and take a gamble; otherwise, how can we succeed?"

"That's quite true."

Shen Yu glanced at Old Fan with some surprise, seemingly not expecting the other party to say such a thing, and then said, "Bring your grandson over for a look."

"Thank you, young master! Thank you, young master!"

Old Fan's face lit up with joy, and he thanked him repeatedly: "I'll go and fetch him right away."

"Don't be so happy yet. Not just anyone can enter my Jade Toad Palace. Whether it's possible or not, we'll have to see first."

Shen Yu remained calm.

"Yes, yes, you are right, young master."

Old Fan seemed to have a lot of confidence in his grandson. Hearing this, he was not disappointed. He nodded and bowed in response before turning around and leaving in a hurry.

Not long after, Old Fan came in with a short boy.

The boy was short and stocky, with dark, thin skin and an honest, ordinary appearance, even somewhat ugly. He seemed dull and didn't speak when he saw Shen Yu.

Especially his eyes, clear yet with a hint of foolishness, like some contemporary college students.

What surprised Shen Yu the most was that although the boy looked thin and short, he was strong and his blood and qi were as intense as a furnace, as if he had some kind of special constitution.

Snapped!

Old Fan raised his hand and slapped the boy on the back of the head.

"Quickly, you silly boy, why aren't you calling him 'Young Master' yet!"

The slap was loud and crisp; an ordinary person might have died right there if they had been hit like that.

The young man merely stumbled, scratched the back of his head as if nothing had happened, looked at Old Fan first, then at Shen Yu, and said, "Fan Jin greets you, young master..."

"Your name is Fan Jin? That's an interesting name."

Shen Yu sized him up for a moment, then made up his mind and threw a piece of copper ore the size of a head in front of Fan Jin:

"You have two weeks to grind this copper concentrate into a sphere. Remember, you must do it yourself; you cannot ask anyone for help or use any tools. Come back to me in two weeks."

"Also, my surname is Shen and my given name is Yu. From now on, you can call me Young Master Shen."

Fan Jin stared blankly at the copper concentrate in front of him, then looked at Shen Yu, somewhat puzzled.

Old Fan was overjoyed, realizing that Shen Yu wanted to test his grandson. Seeing Fan Jin still in a daze, he was furious and slapped him again, the sound crisp and loud, knocking him to the ground.

"You scoundrel, hurry up and thank Young Master Shen!"

Fan Jin got up as if nothing had happened, without even brushing off the dust, and bowed respectfully: "Fan Jin thanks you, young master."

Shen Yu's eyelids twitched. He seriously suspected that Fan Jin's dullness and stupidity were not caused by accidentally eating poisonous mushrooms, but by other reasons.

Old Fan, a shrewd old man, seemed to have seen through Shen Yu's thoughts and gave an awkward smile: "Young master, please don't mind. My grandson is tough and resilient. If you don't like him, just teach him a lesson."

After exchanging a few more words with Shen Yu, he tactfully took his leave.

After the grandfather and grandson left, Shen Yu picked up the stone box from the ground and felt a sudden weight in his hand. The small stone box weighed over a hundred pounds.

"An unexpected bonus, not bad... It seems this trip to Qionglao Mountain was definitely the right decision."

After examining the piece of Azure Blood Evil Gold in the box for a while, Shen Yu closed the stone box, found a talisman to attach to it, and then carefully put it into his storage bag.

"The item is good, but it's a bit small. But that's okay. We can keep an eye out for other rare spiritual materials in the future. If we eventually forge a Golden Core, we can use it to refine our natal magic weapon."

......

half a month later.

Deep inside the mine.

Shen Yu sat cross-legged facing a stone wall.

His body was covered with a layer of golden light that seemed to be real, and it expanded and contracted like breathing, which was particularly mysterious.

The metallic essence within the surrounding mines seemed to be drawn by some special force, surging towards him and continuously flowing into his body.

After a long while, the golden light gradually subsided, and Shen Yu revealed his true appearance.
