Get into the narrow hole and follow the black and smelly passage.
Soon, Lu Zhong entered the mine tunnel.
As he had seen before, the size of the mine tunnel was ten feet square, and the floor was made of piled stones. There were two two-way tracks four feet wide in the middle. The rails were all forged from fine iron. The craftsmanship of the Ancient Spirit Tribe was obvious.
Not bad, even after a long time, there is only a little rust on the surface.
There were many four-wheeled vehicles lying scattered next to them, which were obviously mine cars used to transport gangue.
From the structure of the mine tunnel, we can see the prosperity of the Ancient Spirit Tribe in the past.
But now, it's just a tomb.
"Bang!"
I don't know what happened, but it fell down into the deep well next to the passage.
The sound of huge metal collisions echoed along the deep well and reached very far away.
"I, I just..." Huang Yan'er opened her mouth, showed a piece of silver cake in her hand, and defended herself: "I just saw this and wanted to pick it up and take a look."
"Dai Yin? You really know your stuff!"
Honggu drew out her flying sword, put it on alert, and said as she moved.
Lu Zhong didn't look at the silver piece. Instead, his eyes fell on Huang Yan'er's feet, where there was a carbonized corpse lying there.
Judging from its body shape, it does not look like a human race. Combined with the scorched broken bones on its back, it looks like the winged human race, which is the second generation overlord race in the Xiaoling World after the Ancient Spirit Tribe.
Withdrawing his gaze, he looked at Huang Yan'er and reminded:
"This piece of silver has a lot of black energy wrapped around it. It's probably not a good thing."
A piece of valuable silver cake was lying like this at the entrance of the cave. The Zixia Sect monks who later entered the mine tunnel completely ignored it. No matter how you looked at this matter, it was wrong.
"Second brother, put down that silver cake!" Mei Shumo heard the words, pondered for a while and then said.
Upon hearing this, Huang Yan'er showed an incredible expression and shouted loudly: "What? Brother, this is a Daiyin cake. It is a small piece. It can be sold for at least 10,000 spiritual stones. This is what we worked hard for before.
It takes a month to earn spiritual stones!”
"No, there's nothing you can say!"
He stuffed the silver cake into his arms and protected it tightly with his broken arm.
Such abnormal behavior made other people realize that something was wrong.
No matter how bad Huang Huan'er is, he is still a master of pill formation. His character is not to be said to be as solid as a rock, but at least it has been through many tests and he will never be easily deceived by money.
"There's something wrong with that silver cake!" Honggu said with a change of expression.
Hearing this, Mei Shumo's expression also changed. He hurriedly walked to Huang Yan'er and almost ordered: "Second brother, listen to the elder brother's advice and put down the silver cake immediately!"
"No, my broken arm relied on it to be reborn. No one, no one can take it away from me!" Huang Yaner's voice was almost crazy. Along with this hysterical shouting, a black air came from
The waves surged in his arms, covering his body in two or three strokes, and his whole body was instantly overflowing with billowing black energy.
"Second brother!"
"Get out of the way!" Lu Zhong shouted,
As he breathed, a purple fireball condensed at his fingertips, only the size of a soybean. Then after thinking about it, he activated the thunder seal of the sea of consciousness and wrapped several wisps of purple thunder around it to form a thunder fireball.
A flick of the finger.
The ball turned into purple light and hit Huang Temple instantly.
"Ah ah ah!" A shrill scream came from the mouths of Huang Maner and the charred corpse on the ground.
The movements of the two were synchronized at this moment, and they were struggling wildly.
When Lu Zhong saw this scene, his eyes flashed with a stern look, and he condensed a purple-gold fire ball a hundred times bigger than before, and hit the charred corpse with his fist without any hesitation.
With a burst of purple light, the charred corpse could not withstand the burning of the sun and was completely burned to ashes.
The screams on the side also stopped abruptly.
"Second brother!"
"Second brother!"
Mei Shumo and Tie Qiu saw Huang Yan'er's whole body turned red. After being stunned for a moment, they rushed over and caught him as he was about to fall to the ground.
On the other side, Lu Zhong walked to the charred corpses of the original winged people, looked at the pile of ashes on the ground, and his expression became solemn.
"Dead and not transformed, this is a symptom of corpse-transformation disease." Hong Gu came over, her face not very pretty.
"Then why is it that the silver cake it holds can confuse the alchemy monks? Even if the monks' strength is greatly suppressed nowadays, it is logically speaking that this is extremely difficult to do."
Lu Zhong looked at Hong Gu, trying to get an answer from her mouth.
"I don't know either." Hong Gu shook her head.
She turned around and looked into the depths of the mine. Looking at the rich darkness, there was a hint of complexity in her eyes, and she sighed helplessly:
"I now doubt whether it was really a wise decision to choose to take this Guling Mine Road. However, the best choice now is this road, and we have no other choice."
There was a muffled groan, and Huang Yan'er spat out a stream of black water and slowly opened his eyes. Seeing everyone looking at him, he suddenly asked in confusion: "Brother, third brother, me, what's wrong with me?"
In his memory, he only saw a silver light shining in the corner.
When I woke up again, it was now.
After hearing Huang Yan'er's words, everyone fell into silence.
There was a sound of footsteps coming from far away, and Li Yingshi walked out of the passage. Seeing the silent people, he couldn't help but be surprised and said: "What happened? Fellow Taoists, you have such expressions."
Mei Shumo tells the truth of what happened.
After listening, Li Yingshi thought for a while and then said: "Judging from the description, this should be a curse. However, how could it confuse the alchemy monks so easily? It shouldn't, it shouldn't..."
Looking at the Daiyin cake again, there is still black air lingering on it, obviously the curse has not been removed.
At this time, Lu Zhong opened his eyes and suddenly said:
"No matter what the curse is, we must be careful next time. This ancient spirit mine is well-deserved, and there are probably many more lurking dangers. You should all be more vigilant... By the way, Fellow Daoist Li, what is the situation outside now?
Did the Yaksha patrol appear?"
"It's not optimistic. In just half an hour, there were two waves of patrolling Yaksha. And they seemed to be looking for something. I was almost discovered by these things just now. It is estimated that there is no way to walk on the ground."
Li Yingshi shook his head and told everyone the result.
Another bad news!
"It seems that we can only use the ancient spirit mine tunnel." Hong Gu sighed.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Then everyone walked towards the depths of the mine tunnel.
Since everyone's cultivation level is not low and they can see in the dark, the lighting method that can easily reveal their whereabouts can be saved and they can just advance by the dim light in the cave.
Along the way, not all are mine tunnels. Occasionally, you will pass through some abyss. The two sides are connected by long stone bridges. You can't see the sky from above and the bottom from below. You can vaguely see some stone bridges, crisscrossing the abyss.
, the scale of the Ancient Spirit Tribe’s excavations once again exceeded everyone’s imagination.
Winding and winding, you can go up the stairs or go down the steep stairs on the cliff.
Some places are so steep that riding a mount is extremely risky and there is a risk of falling into the abyss, so that safety can only be ensured by walking.
During this period, I encountered various "treasures" more than once.
There is no shortage of various spiritual minerals worth tens of thousands.
Following previous lessons, everyone stayed away this time to avoid being harmed by it.
After walking for about half a month, the six of them came to a huge stone hall.
What's interesting is that there is sunlight falling in the stone hall. With the help of a bunch of crystal devices, the light is evenly distributed into the 100-meter-large stone hall, which actually illuminates the place so that even mortals can see things easily.
"If my calculations are correct, we are now thousands of feet underground, and maybe even deeper. Even in such a place, the Ancient Spirit Clan can actually guide sunlight deep into the ground. This technology is really impressive!" Lu Zhong
Feeling the long-lost warm sunshine, I sincerely admired it.
"This is nothing. Fellow Daoist Chen probably has never been to the Holy Dao Mountain. Once you go there and see the magnificence of the Floating Holy Mountain, you will know that the construction technology of our human race is far beyond that of the Ancient Spirit Race.
Looking at this stone hall later, I will feel that it is nothing." Hong Gu reminded her kindly as soon as she found a stone chair to sit down.
"Indeed, the majesty of Shengdao Mountain is hard to match here." Li Yingshi sat cross-legged on his gourd. Hearing the conversation between the two, he also looked longingly and said in agreement.
"Oh, it seems that if Mr. Chen has time in the future, he really wants to see the beauty of Shengdao Mountain."
Lu Zhong said with a chuckle.
Looking around, he also found a stone chair and sat down.
Close your eyes and adjust your breath.
The reason why Lu Zhong and other Nascent Souls took a rest was not only to refresh themselves, but also to give the three brothers Mei Shumo and Mei Shumo some time to breathe and recover.
After half a month in the mine, although they didn't encounter any corpses, it was not easy for Mei Shumo and the other three. In order to resist the temptation of the nameless curse, they were all exhausted, especially Huang, who had been unlucky and had been cursed before.
His temples and face were getting paler, and his vitality was obviously greatly diminished.
If recovery is not carried out, the root cause may be damaged.
Furthermore, after passing through this stone hall, they will officially enter the Ancient Spirit Mine Road. Different from the previous peripheral areas, the real Ancient Spirit Mine Road area, according to the records of the Zixia Sect, is not only haunted by corpses
, and other creatures living in caves here.
Compared to these creatures, Huang Quanjun can be said to be kind.
If you rush in without taking care of yourself, you may suffer heavy casualties.
Seeing that it would take quite a while for Huang Yan'er to recover from his injuries, Lu Zhong, after finishing adjusting his breath, had no idea of practicing in front of outsiders to avoid others seeing any clues.
Simply, he fed the chocobo and watched the little guy eat the cabbage. It was actually an interesting thing.
Time flies and it’s half a month again.
During this period, the surroundings were surprisingly calm.
After some treatment, Huang Yaner's condition finally stabilized.
"Let's continue on the road. The battle between Linghuan Sect and Huangquan Army can take as little as a month or as slowly as half a year. We don't have much time left. If we continue to delay and wait for Huangquan Army to return to the city, even if we really do
It's hard to do anything in the City of Ten Thousand Corpses." Hong Gu stood up at this time and looked at the people in the stone hall.
There was no objection and the team set off again.
Passing through the Baizhang Hall is a huge blacksmithing workshop.
Here, you can see hanging baskets above your head. They are all made of metal, and many are loaded with ores. They extend towards the blast furnaces that have long been extinguished. Walking through the period is like entering a metal jungle.
The glory of the Ancient Spirit Clan can be vaguely seen.
Looking at the pieces of exquisitely crafted armor and weapons, Li Yingshi sighed with emotion: "I used to read the classics and said that the Ancient Spirit Tribe was a race made of metal. I had a lot of doubts in my heart. After seeing this today, I still feel...
It’s really true, there is no lie at all.”
"That's true." Lu Zhong nodded.
The ancient spirit clan has exquisite craftsmanship, and the weapons and armor they forge are considered valuable by immortal cultivators. The sharp blade is enough to break through the monk's aura, and the armor is strong enough to withstand magic weapons.
If the Ancient Spirit Tribe had not perished due to the zombie disease, they would definitely have been a formidable enemy to the immortal cultivators who invaded the Little Spirit World.
Unfortunately, there is no such thing as reality.
"Next, we only need to pass through the blacksmithing workshop and then Lingwang Avenue to reach the core area of the Ancient Spirit Mine Road. After that, as long as we can repel the undead corpses, we can enter the destination mining area, where we will be.
It’s the last section of the Guling Mine Road, and the City of Ten Thousand Corpses is right on top of the edge of the mining area.”
Hong Gu was controlling her lizard-riding beast while telling everyone about the route ahead.
Suddenly Lu Zhongmeng turned around and his expression changed slightly.
"Did you feel it?"
There was a sound, faintly coming from behind.
At first there was a rustle, then there was a noise, and the sound of metal collisions came together, and they converged together into a harsh thunder.
"It's troublesome, it's the Shiling Clan!" Li Yingshi said in shock.
When Lu Zhong heard this, he remembered the origin of this clan.
As one of the hundreds of tribes in the Xiaoling World, the Shiling Tribe is not famous in this world as the overlord. Instead, it is known for its bloody violence and cruelty, which has left a deep memory to the hundreds of tribes.
The character "Shi" in their clan name was originally supposed to mean "food", which means they are a clan of food-eating spirits. When this clan was once powerful, its food-eating clan wiped out many weaker races.
Compared with the other cave-dwelling creatures that everyone was worried about meeting on the road, now they meet the Stone Spirit Tribe, which can be regarded as extremely unlucky for the six of them.
"There are people in front of us too, we are surrounded!"
As soon as Hong Gu finished speaking, a river of light formed by torches appeared in all directions, even on the top of the rock above their heads. Countless figures were like insects, either roaring or making strange calls of unknown meaning, gathering together.
Chengliu came to kill them.
Lu Zhong made a seal and shot a ball of light.
The dazzling light shone brightly, illuminating the huge forging factory.
Looking at the densely packed and armored Stone Spirit Tribe army, everyone took a breath of cold air. Even Lu Zhong frowned. With so many Stone Spirit Tribes, if he didn't expose his divine cultivation, he would have to consume a little bit.
It is estimated that it will be difficult to solve the problem in order to restore the strength.
Once his power as a god was exposed, he already had a premonition that something bad would happen.
Thinking of this, he shouted:
"Move, head toward the Spirit King Avenue, and kill them!"
"Kill!" Hong Gu raised her sword.
The flying sword swung and shot out a crescent sword energy.
Falling into the Stone Spirit Clan army, a large group was immediately killed.
But soon, these Stone Spirits, who were no more than half a man in height and wore armor forged by the Ancient Spirits, except for the first few who were killed, the rest actually stood up again, their dark green faces twisted, and they roared.
Then he launched another charge, trying to knock everyone off their mounts with his spear.
Honggu still didn't believe in evil, and she waved several sword energy.
