After thinking for a long time, Xu Chunniang made a decision.
"I can join you, but in the past few days, we have contacted a total of five monks, and I promised them to take them with me."
The old man's expression remained normal and he did not refuse directly.
"What are the cultivation levels of those five monks?"
"Two are in the early stage of divine transformation, one is in the middle stage of divine transformation, and two are in the late stage of divine transformation."
The old man pondered for a moment and then said, "Two monks in the late stage of spiritual transformation can join us. The cultivation of the other three is too low, and the risk of taking them along is too great.
Of course, if the laws they understand are related to the banning laws, or if they have other special methods, then that’s a different story.”
Xu Chunniang frowned slightly. Among the three people, two of them understood the law of force, and the other female cultivator, who was in the middle stage of becoming a god, understood the law of light.
The female cultivator who understood the law of light opened up a hidden space of light in her body. Magical weapons, spiritual crystals and other objects were hidden in it and were not taken away by the orcs.
In a few words, she briefly introduced the situation of several people.
After hearing this, the old man made a weighing decision in his mind.
The entire mine is shrouded in a forbidden formation. Therefore, the spiritual crystal is very important, which directly determines the level of cultivation that everyone can recover after removing the iron ring.
Putting aside the two monks who were in the early stages of becoming gods, the other female cultivator could be won over if she had enough spiritual crystals.
"Has she ever revealed how many spiritual crystals there are in the Space of Light?"
"She didn't say it explicitly, but she mentioned to me that she is a monk of the Ji family."
"A member of the Ji family!"
The old man's expression changed slightly. As early as hundreds of thousands of years ago, there were Mahayana monks in the Ji family. They were famous for a while, especially that Mahayana monk. In the end, he successfully ascended to immortality, which made the Ji family's reputation reach an unprecedented level.
height.
Although the Ji family has seemed a little lonely in the past tens of thousands of years, and the Ji family monks have become more and more low-key, they are not comparable to ordinary aristocratic families.
"If she is really from the Ji family, then she definitely has a lot of spiritual crystals in her body. In addition, the light space she possesses can allow us and others to stay for a short time, which can greatly reduce the risk of being discovered by orcs!"
The old man looked slightly excited and nodded towards Xu Chunniang.
"Thank you, little friend, for telling me this. I will personally discuss it with the female cultivator surnamed Ji. As for the other two cultivators in the early stage of divine transformation, although they cannot move with us, they can hide in the space of light and leave with us.
.”
Xu Chunniang thought thoughtfully, this is a good idea.
Time is limited, and it is unrealistic to untie the iron rings on everyone without alerting the orcs.
The best way is to let those with low strength hide in the space of light, while those with high strength stay outside to break out.
After escaping from the territory of the orcs, it would not be too late to untie the iron rings on those people.
"With the light space, it is not impossible to take everyone away together."
The old man had a smile on his face and lowered his voice.
"Every March 3rd is the day when the Orcs celebrate the birth of the Beast God. On this day, most of the Orcs will go to the Beast God's Temple, leaving only a small part in the mines.
The next Beast God Festival is our chance."
Xu Chunniang understood it well. The Beast God Festival was mentioned in several books related to the orcs she had read.
For the orcs, this is a very important day. The higher the cultivation level, the less likely they will be absent.
On this day, the guards in the mine will definitely not be as strict as usual.
After staring at the direction the old man left for a while, Xu Chunniang averted her gaze, picked up the mining hoe in her backpack, and continued to mine the spiritual ore.
The days in the mine were silent and depressing. Every once in a while, a human monk would be unable to bear such inhuman persecution and would violently attack. However, he was easily countered by the orc overseer, and was reduced to a situation worse than death.
But Xu Chunniang discovered that since her conversation with the old man, more and more human monks chose to endure under the oppression of the orcs.
It seems that the old man has informed them of the plan.
It was okay if there was no hope before. Now that there is a chance to escape, naturally no one takes the initiative to provoke the orcs.
Time flies by day by day, and in the blink of an eye it is March 2nd, and tomorrow is the Festival of the God of Beasts.
In the past few days, the orc supervisors in the mines have been extremely excited and are always looking for trouble for the human monks who are mining.
When he handed over the spiritual mine, he was even more unscrupulous to the extreme. No matter whether the person in front of him had completed the task or not, he just raised his hand and rained down a few whips.
"These pieces of spiritual ore are too small and are not up to standard. You will be punished with one day of spiritual food!"
Seeing them being whipped and keeping silent, the orc supervisor felt something strange in his heart.
I don't know if it's his misunderstanding, but in recent months, these people seem to be too honest.
After collecting the spiritual minerals, he walked towards the warehouse, put the newly collected spiritual minerals into the warehouse, and asked the orcs guarding the warehouse.
"Do you think there's something wrong with those people's cultivation?"
"What's wrong?"
The orc overseer thought for a while, "In the past, they would look at me with hatred and try to attack me, but in recent months, no one has done so."
Several orcs guarding the warehouse laughed, and one of the orcs even showed disdain in his eyes.
"Human cultivators are a despicable race, greedy for life and afraid of death, and as timid as rats. Maybe they are scared, hahaha!"
is that so?
The orc supervisor was a little confused, and while he continued to ask questions, he heard several people talking about the Beast God's Festival tomorrow.
There was a look of enthusiasm on his face, and he instantly threw away the doubts in his heart.
Tomorrow will be his first time going to the Beast God Academy to participate in the Beast God Festival. For any half-orc, this is a great honor.
As he was talking, one of the orcs suddenly thought of something and his expression became serious.
"Tomorrow is our clan's grand celebration. Those despicable humans will definitely take the opportunity to invade our clan's territory as they did in previous years, and the borders will have to be guarded."
"Don't worry about this. You can think of it, how could the elders not think of it? And in just one day, the human race can't come up with any tricks.
Let’s think carefully about how to get the favor of the Beast God during the Beast God’s Festival tomorrow!”
Just as the orcs were reveling in the upcoming Beast God Festival tomorrow, in the long, dark mine, the human monks reached a consensus in some unique way.
Whether you can escape from this dark mine depends on tomorrow!
"Dong dong dong."
Three light knocks sounded on the stone wall of the mine.
Xu Chunniang turned around and exchanged a look with the thin black monk who knocked on the stone wall, and everything was clear.
The thin black monk nodded slightly, turned around and disappeared into the dark mine tunnel.
At the right time of the year, the celebrations in the various beast temples have not yet begun, and many orcs who were invited have been waiting in the beast temples for a long time.
