The next day, as the sun rose in the east, Lu Chen and the two of them went to Heifeng Ridge according to the city lord's request.
Black Wind Ridge is five miles away to the west of the city. There are no villages in this area and there are few people there. However, there is a small crystal mine. For Shi Feng City, this crystal mine is a huge wealth.
There are probably more than two hundred miners in the entire mine, half of whom are from the City Lord's Mansion and the other half from the Sun family.
As soon as he arrived at the mine and explained his purpose, many miners immediately gathered around him.
"Young Master Lu has come to destroy the monsters on the orders of the city lord. Please be patient.
"A guard from the city lord's palace shouted loudly.
Now many miners have complained to Lu Chen. It seems that the appearance of the colorful tiger has made these miners panic, and they have long hoped that someone could eliminate the monster.
Lu Chen smiled and said to everyone: "Please rest assured, I will definitely get rid of the monster for everyone."
"This was said in an understatement, which made everyone believe that Lu Chen must be sure of getting rid of the demon.
After all, Lu Chen is one of the "two geniuses" in Shi Feng City, and he is somewhat famous. No one doubts his ability.
"Brother Lu, this matter depends entirely on you."
Several miners said repeatedly.
At this time, a discordant voice suddenly came: "Hahaha, who do I think you are? It turns out that he is a useless person, and he dares to brag. It's really funny."
"A young man walked over from outside the crowd.
This man is none other than the eldest son of the Sun family, Sun Pengcheng.
After not seeing each other for a few months, Sun Pengcheng's cultivation level has actually reached the eighth level of the acquired realm.
It is a well-known fact that Lu Chen's meridians and cultivation have recovered, but Sun Pengcheng still ridiculed Lu Chen as a useless person, naturally relying on his acquired eighth-level strength.
In fact, as early as half a year ago, Lu Chen had a secret contest with Sun Pengcheng, which ended in Sun Pengcheng's defeat.
The Sun family believed that in this year's martial arts test, Sun Pengcheng's biggest obstacle should be Lu Chen. In order to ensure that he won the first place in the competition, the Sun family used extremely brutal methods and secretly sent Wu Rong to destroy Lu Chen.
This directly caused Lu Chen to lie in the hospital bed for three months.
Of course, they don't know that the current Lu Chen is no longer the original Lu Chen.
"The day after tomorrow, eightfold, yes, you have not wasted the past six months.
Lu Chen said calmly.
Although he commented on Sun Pengcheng in a positive tone, anyone could tell that Lu Chen didn't take Sun Pengcheng seriously at all.
Sun Pengcheng's expression changed: "I would like to ask you to verify whether I am deserted or not.
"He said and forced himself forward.
Su Xuan laughed loudly: "Sun Pengcheng, you can't do it. Your Sun family's martial arts are more than enough for killing pigs and cows, but it's best not to come out to fight. It's really embarrassing."
""Really?
"Sun Pengcheng's face was livid, and he stared at Su Xuan with murderous intent on his face. However, Su Xuan had Lu Chen's support, so he was naturally not afraid and immediately returned an eye for an eye, glaring back.
At this time, another woman's voice came: "Brother, what nonsense are you talking to these two poor boys? If you dare to insult our Sun family, you will deserve to be beaten to death."
"A woman in red came in.
This person is eighteen or nineteen years old, and is the second young lady of the Sun family, Sun Xue.
This Sun Xue is the person whom the city lord mentioned yesterday who was promised to the Nangong family as a concubine.
"I heard that Miss Sun climbed into the lap of the Nangong family, but unfortunately she married someone as a concubine. This does not seem to be a glorious thing.
"Su Xuan said teasingly.
Sun Xue snorted and said to Sun Pengcheng: "Brother, I think these two people are looking for death, please beat these two losers quickly.
Sun Pengcheng laughed and said, "Second sister, just wait and see the good show. Originally, for the sake of the city lord, I wanted to give them a step down. It's a pity, some people just don't know how to live or die."
Before he could say the words "I don't know whether to live or die", Sun Pengcheng suddenly punched Lu Chen in the face. The move was so sudden that it was hard to guard against.
But Lu Chen didn't seem to be surprised at all. He tilted his head slightly to let go of the punch.
Sun Pengcheng immediately changed his attack midway, turned his fist into a palm, and slashed towards Lu Chen's throat with a palm knife.
"What a move with the Qiuye Palm Technique. My brother has become more and more proficient in martial arts. Beat this loser to death."
"Sun Xue said with excitement.
There was a trace of sarcasm on Lu Chen's face. Such martial arts were too low-level for him and not good enough.
He suddenly raised his arm to hold Sun Pengcheng's sword, and at the same time, his right foot turned into an afterimage and kicked out.
Great Vajra Kick Technique.
No one could see clearly what was going on, but saw Lu Chen kick Sun Pengcheng in the lower abdomen, and then Sun Pengcheng let out a scream, his body passed over everyone's heads, and fell to the ground with a bang, stirring up dust all over the ground.
Everyone was stunned.
An acquired master of the eighth level, a genius who had a chance to win the first place in the martial arts test, was actually kicked away.
Everyone found it incredible.
"You..." Sun Pengcheng bent over and held his stomach with a painful expression on his face. He pointed at Lu Chen angrily with his right hand and wanted to yell, but he was speechless because of the pain.
In fact, Lu Chen hadn't tried his best yet. If he unleashed the truly powerful power of the Great Vajra Kick Technique, he could kick Sun Pengcheng in the stomach and kill him directly.
However, he would naturally not be so reckless. If he killed Sun Pengcheng now, it would only cause more trouble for himself.
In his eyes, Sun Pengcheng was just a clown, and it wasn't worth getting him all stink because of a clown.
"It's just trash.
Lu Chen said lightly and walked towards the mine.
Sun Pengcheng was furious. He was defeated by Lu Chen with one move and had already lost all face. Previously, he and Sun Xue tried their best to ridicule Lu Chen as a waste. Unfortunately, now the word waste is more suitable to describe himself.
When everyone saw Lu Chen's prowess, they all admired him. A miner saw Lu Chen walking into the mine and hurriedly followed him and said: "Brother Lu, the colorful tiger is really powerful. Although brother Lu has a high level of cultivation, we still need to send more people. Everyone."
You will always be more confident if you go together.
Lu Chen waved his hand and said: "The colorful tiger is usually only at the eighth or ninth level. I can deal with it by myself. What's more, the mine is too narrow. If there are more people, it is not conducive to dodge and retreat, but it is not good."
"If Lu Chen had spoken like this before, I'm afraid everyone would have thought Lu Chen was arrogant, but now, everyone just thinks that Lu Chen should have such confidence.
Su Xuan also walked up and said, "Brother Chen, be careful if you are alone. I'm waiting for good news from you."
"Lu Chen nodded and walked into the mine.
This mine is complicated and has intertwined routes, so it is easy to get lost. For ordinary people, let alone looking for traces of monsters, if you walk in, you may not be able to get out for several days.
In fact, this mine has only been mined for more than a year. It is obviously impossible to dig out so many passages just by relying on manpower. This is mainly because this mine is originally a natural cave. More than a year ago, a child accidentally entered the cave and disappeared.
Many people went in to search and found that it turned out to be a crystal mine.
The reason why Lu Chen was confident of finding the colorful tiger alone was mainly because of his extraordinary perception. Wherever a monster passed by, there would be more or less slight traces left behind, and in some places, obvious traces could even be seen.
There are footprints, so it's not difficult to find.
Until night, Lu Chen reached the depths of the mine, but could not find the figure of the colorful tiger. The passage of the mine extended too far, which was beyond his expectation, but he was not in a hurry. The smell of monsters here was already very strong.
, obviously a place frequented by colorful tigers.
At this moment, he couldn't help but have doubts in his heart. Although the colorful tiger sometimes looked for caves as a place to live, how could it go deep into such a complicated mine? This was obviously not the habit of ordinary monsters.
Although I had doubts in my mind, since I couldn't figure it out, I had no choice but not to think too much about it.
It was pitch black in the mine. Fortunately, with his level of cultivation as a warrior, the darkness had no effect on his vision. He could see the surrounding environment clearly, but the continuous and concentrated use of soul perception also had a lot of impact on his spirit.
Because of the loss, he did not continue to search, but chose a corner against the wall, closed his eyes and adjusted his breath to regain his energy.
Until noon of the next day, Lu Chen still didn't encounter the colorful tiger, but the occasional huge footprints on the ground showed that the colorful tiger must be hiding nearby.
He is still searching patiently.
Suddenly, a rustling sound came into my ears. This was deep in the mine, and not even a mouse could be seen. Such a strange movement seemed particularly harsh in such a quiet environment. There is no doubt that this should be the colorful tiger.
The movement coming out.
Lu Chen hurriedly walked forward, and after passing through a bend, a green-furred monster appeared in front of him.
This monster beast was burying its head on the ground and chewing something, making constant chewing sounds.
Lu Chen couldn't help being surprised. The situation here was really strange.
There were many crystal objects scattered on the ground. When Lu Chen took a closer look, he found that they were all extremely high-quality natural crystals.
The spiritual energy here is extremely rich, making it an excellent place for cultivation.
Originally, as a crystal mine, the spiritual energy inside is naturally relatively rich, but the spiritual energy here is more abundant than in other parts of the mine, simply because there are higher quality crystals in this place.
Medium grade crystal.
Generally, crystal mines only have low-grade crystals, and the ore must be refined and processed to obtain rough, low-grade crystals. Only by refining many times can we obtain medium-grade crystals.
And in this place, middle-grade crystal stones can be mined directly.
If this news spreads, I'm afraid it will cause a sensation, and all forces will definitely fight for it.
What shocked Lu Chen even more was that most of these mid-grade crystals were being eaten by the green-haired monster in front of him.
You must know that there is only one kind of monster in the world that feeds on crystals, and that is the legendary blue-eyed crystal-eating beast.
In other words, this monster is not a colorful tiger at all, but a blue-eyed crystal-eating beast.
The spotted tiger and the blue-eyed crystal-eater both have green fur and have similar appearances, but these two monsters are absolutely unrelated. The blue-eyed crystal-eater is much more powerful than the spotted tiger.
The blue-eyed crystal-eating beast naturally discovered Lu Chen, the uninvited guest. It raised its head and stared at Lu Chen with its two giant green copper bell eyes.
An aura of primitive ferocious beasts spread out.
This is the natural deterrence of ferocious beasts. If you are a warrior with insufficient mental cultivation, or a monster with too little strength, you will only tremble in the face of this ferocious power.
But Lu Chen is naturally not comparable to ordinary people. In his previous life, he had killed countless monsters and faced countless dangers, and his character cultivation had already reached its peak.
