Tie Yi did not care about the survival of the Human Clan; in her eyes, they were just a bunch of lowly ants.
Despite Duan Gujin being able to heal all those nearly dying Human Warriors, to Tie Yi, this problem was self-inflicted by the Human Clan and had nothing to do with her.
She only cared about whether Duan Gujin could help them construct a Defensive Magic Array capable of resisting the invasion of the Netherworld Dark Clan.
As Duan Gujin had guessed before, the Star Feather Clan didn't know much about the Dark Weapons of the Human Clan, but the ancestors of the Queen had dealt with Human Warriors before and knew they possessed some very powerful Arrays and Dark Weapons.
Therefore, the Queen had tasked Duan Gujin with building a Defensive Magic Array that could resist the invasion of the Netherworld Dark Clan.
"When will you be able to complete the Defensive Magic Array?"
Tie Yi asked.
Duan Gujin immediately told Tie Yi, "To construct a Defensive Magic Array capable of dealing with the Netherworld Dark Clan, we need to see what kind of materials you can provide. If the materials you provide are of very high quality, then the power of the Defensive Magic Array we construct will be tremendously strong, and it will better combat the Netherworld Dark Clan. If the materials you provide are of very low quality, it will be difficult to resist the Netherworld Dark Clan! Whether or not we can build a Defensive Magic Array that resists the Netherworld Dark Clan is not solely up to us! You must provide sufficiently high-level materials!"
Tie Yi frowned and then told Duan Gujin, "Alright then, follow me!"
She then led Duan Gujin to the warehouse of the Star Feather Clan.
The so-called warehouse of the Star Feather Clan was a crude cave, guarded simply by deploying many Star Feather Clan Members around the cave.
Upon seeing the contents of the warehouse, cold sweat broke out on Duan Gujin's forehead.
It turned out the warehouse was filled with colorful, brightly colored ores; some were precious, but most of the ores were simply junk.
He hurriedly asked Tie Yi, "You've collected these ores, but do you know what they are used for?"
Tie Yi responded, "I don't know what these ores are used for; we just know they look pretty colorful, that's all. If you think any material is particularly precious, just take it."
Hearing Tie Yi's words, Duan Gujin was momentarily speechless.
He didn't care what Tie Yi was thinking anymore, he just went to the pile of ores and selected some very rare ores.
While selecting the ores, he discovered a pile that emitted a very strange energy.
Upon closer inspection, he realized he did not recognize what these particular ores were.
When he used his Divine Sense to look into that pile of ores, he discovered the ores were filled with terrifyingly powerful Soul Power.
And this Soul Power actually stirred the Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul inside his body.
If he hadn't retracted his actions in time and stopped the Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul's movements, he guessed it was highly likely that the Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul would have erupted uncontrollably right there.
"I have definitely never seen this type of ore before; what kind of ore is this."
Upon seeing that pile of ores, Duan Gujin's heart began to beat fiercely.
He quietly packed up that pile of ores along with the other ores, and told Tie Yi that he might be able to construct a Defensive Magic Array for them within a month.
"I'll tell you in advance, whether the Defensive Magic Array we construct for you is useful will depend on the situation; it'll depend on how many Netherworld Dark Clan members attack you."
"I understand, anyway, we've captured you to use you as free labor, whether the defensive array you build for us fails once doesn't matter! If one time doesn't work, there's always next time. If it fails the next time, there's still another time after that! I believe, eventually, you will succeed! And if you all ultimately don't succeed, then you'll just have to work for us for free here for life!"
Tie Yi was quite composed; she didn't bother to think whether Duan Gujin was deceiving her.
Anyway, in her eyes, it was absolutely impossible for Duan Gujin and the others to escape from the Fire Cloud Continent.
"Oh!"
Duan Gujin just slightly nodded; he did not know what Tie Yi was thinking, nor did he have the mood to think too much about it. He also understood that the Star Feather Clan would definitely not let them, the Human Clan, off easily.
If the Star Feather Clan let them go, that would mean the other party was lying.
Right now, the only thought in his mind was that he wanted to use that pile of ores to rapidly enhance his Cultivation.
When he had touched that strange pile of ores, he felt a premonition in his heart; he felt that the pile of ores was a 'supplement' for the Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul.
He had an intuition, he felt that if he could release the Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul, it could devour that pile of ores, ultimately allowing his Cultivation to rapidly break through.
Moreover, among the ores Tie Yi had given him, he found some very rare Cultivation Resources—Earth Monarch Crystal Stone, which were very suitable for Martial Monarch Realm warriors to cultivate with. Such Cultivation resources were almost completely nonexistent in the Qiankun Continent.
This resource was also a rare item on other continents, very precious.
Now, Duan Gujin had found an Earth Monarch Crystal Stone about the size of an adult man's head; he believed that if he could completely devour and absorb the Earth Monarch Crystal Stone, his Cultivation would definitely rapidly breakthrough to the Martial Master Realm.
