Jiang Yuan didn't feel how time had slipped by, it was already past three in the afternoon. Luckily, the iron ore needed for the quest was almost gathered, and with the Earth Mirror Book skill boost, he found a huge iron ore, which could yield twenty to thirty pieces once fully mined.
In fact, mining itself wasn't that time-consuming; the worn pickaxe needed to strike three times to yield one piece of iron ore. The key was that time was wasted in finding the iron ores.
This stuff seemed to be randomly distributed scattered around the ancient mine cave, without forming any proper veins. You could only collect one piece and then find the next location.
Sometimes even the Earth Mirror Book skill couldn't give a specific location, and you had to rely on luck to choose a direction to smash stones.
