"This is a life-saving pill, the best pill I can refine with all the resources in the manor."
"If Your Majesty encounters danger in the future, you may take this. Although it is not as good as the legendary Nine-Turn Rejuvenation Pill, it should be enough to save your life."
"Thank you very much, Brother Xu Gou."
Lin Tian took the pill bottle from Xu Gou's hand, and the information about the pill quickly appeared in his eyes:
[Life-Saving Pill:]
Quality: Special Product
Category: Life-saving pills
Effect: Upon consumption, it immediately restores full health and eliminates all abnormal statuses.
Note: When the mind is at peace, all illnesses will naturally disappear.
When Lin Tian saw the information about the pill, his eyes lit up. He didn't expect that Xu Gou, who had only been in this world for a short time, would be able to refine a special-grade pill. If he were given more time, would he also be able to refine the immortal-grade pills mentioned above, or even the heavenly immortal pills?
Lin Tian had no doubt that Xu Gou possessed such skills; in his view, it was only a matter of time.
After receiving the pills, the two began to stroll around the pill repositories, chatting about trivial matters that had happened in the inner city that day. It was a mystery how Xu Gou, who stayed in the pill repositories all day, knew about these strange and unusual events.
Unbeknownst to him, Lin Tian arrived at a medicinal field. The field was filled with a large number of spiritual plants, all of which Lin Tian had never seen before. Lin Tian was very curious about them and couldn't help but go closer to take a look.
But as soon as he approached, a large Ganoderma lucidum next to him suddenly began to tremble. As Lin Tian looked over, the Ganoderma lucidum suddenly jumped out of the ground.
puff!
It was a humanoid figure, yellow on top and blue on the bottom, with a very strange shape. It had a large Ganoderma lucidum on its head, no face or eyes, and was carrying an iron hammer.
As Lin Tian turned his gaze to him, a virtual panel simultaneously appeared in his eyes:
[Little Demon · Little Lingzhi Spirit:]
Summoning Requirement: 50 Spirit Points
Summoning limit: 100/100
Note: Deep in the forest, beneath the pines and tall trees, amidst verdant mountains and clear waters, I protect my mountain friends; even the most ruthless hunters will face danger.
Little Lingzhi Spirit and Bone Fright are from the same batch of monsters, both obtained from the last ecological improvement.
As plant spirits, they were immediately assigned by Lin Tian to the Dog's place, since the Dog needed to cultivate Ganoderma lucidum, and these plant spirits could provide some assistance.
"Your Majesty."
Although the little lingzhi had no mouth, Lin Tian could still hear what it was saying, so he nodded in response to its greeting.
Just as he was about to say something, the other bunches of Ganoderma lucidum in the herb field began to tremble, as if they all wanted to break through the soil.
Lin Tian quickly stopped him. He was just here for a casual stroll and didn't want it to turn into a fan meeting. After exchanging pleasantries with Xu Gou, he left the Pill Mansion.

Is the news true or false?
“We’ve already had someone else check it out. She’s a silver-level mage we invited. After arriving in that area, she used a spirit-searching spell, and according to her description, there are indeed signs of spiritual energy there.”
"Hmm? Have you confirmed the location?"
"No, she said that area is very strange, as if something is blocking her senses. She can only detect a little bit of it. However, according to her, there is a 60% probability that there is a psionic mine there, and it is not small in scale."
"That's it..."
Lin Tian tapped his head with his fingers and began to ponder.
Not long ago, he learned the whereabouts of a psionic mine. The news was rather small, even wild, but after being verified by Lin Tian's subordinates, the authenticity of the news was about 70%.
Lin Tian was naturally very happy to hear this news. The spirit energy mine was like spiritual essence to him, and as the most important resource in his hands, Lin Tian would never complain about having too much spiritual essence.
However, most of the mines in the Sand Kingdom are controlled by the government, and even if Lin Tian has the ability to seize them, he doesn't have the ability to defend them.
With this one thing right now—wild psionic minerals that haven't been officially discovered—Lin Tian couldn't possibly resist the temptation.
However, even so, Lin Tian did not act rashly, because there were many suspicious points in this matter.
For example, why would such important information be in the hands of a slave trader? Although he said he was speaking out to save his own life, the coincidence is too great. After all, can you believe that a slave trader would commit a crime on your territory, be captured by a demon, and then, in order to save his own life, happen to reveal this information?
Anyone who looks at this matter would find it highly suspicious, let alone Lin Tian.
Moreover, after he learned of this news, another thing happened: the lords of the two cities closest to him suddenly launched an attack on him.
It's no longer surprising that Kurta is now controlled by the demi-humans. After all, as Kurta has grown and merchants have come and gone, some news can't be kept secret.
However, due to Kurta's remote location and its already substantial defensive force, even if the surrounding lords knew about it, they dared not send troops to attack.
After all, who would bother to work hard and get nothing in return by attacking a remote small town?
Lin Tian initially thought so too, until these two guys went crazy and started attacking him together.
Unlike Kang Te, these two had some resources under their command. By working together, they managed to hold off Lin Tian's lesser demons for a while.
Of course, there was also a reason why Lin Tian did not intend to kill him. After all, although he had conquered Kurta, it was ultimately an insignificant small city. In addition, the kingdom was currently busy fighting the rebels, so even if they knew about it, they would not deal with Lin Tian.
At least not in the short term.
But if he captures two more cities, the situation will be different. First, the surrounding lords will panic, and second, the kingdom will take notice of him and might find a time to attack him, which would be very troublesome for him.
Therefore, Lin Tian only instructed the lesser demons to defend and did not launch any offensive actions.
Lin Tian originally thought that since something was wrong with the mine, he would lead his troops to push through it, which would greatly increase the safety factor.
But now that his troops are tied up, if he really has to go explore the mine, he has no choice but to go by himself.
Seeing this, Lin Tian pondered for a moment and decided to go and check it out first, considering his current strength...
But it's not that simple.
