"From today on, I will be your supervisor, and I will be responsible for all activities. My name is Hoffman, and I hope you can cooperate happily. But you have to say ugly things first. There are several regulations that must be followed.
. You are not allowed to absorb the energy of the world here, you are not allowed to hide crystals secretly, you are not allowed to cause trouble, and you are not allowed to contradict the supervisor. If anyone dares to violate any of these points, I will recommend you to a very fun place to ensure that you experience it
To what extent is life worse than death?"
Before half a day's rest, a blond man with a height of 2.5 meters and a body as strong as a rock came to Tang Yan's house. His roar was like thunder, his eyes were shining, he had a fierce look, and he was holding an arm-thick weapon in his hand.
The pitch-black iron whip fell like a hill in front of the door, looking down at the five people in the room.
"Good guy! How do you grow?" Tang Yan was shocked by this huge creature.
"Brother, we agreed, don't cause trouble, don't cause trouble. I haven't kissed a woman yet, and I don't want to die young here!" Du Yang reminded Tang Yan in a low voice.
"Am I that kind of naughty person?"
"you are not?"
"..."
"What are you mumbling about? Get out of here!" Hoffman's eyes widened and he roared like thunder.
None of the five people made a first move and walked out of the room obediently.
"Follow me!" Hoffman strode forward, the ground shook with a roar, and his huge body was enough to overtake Tang Yan by five!
When they left the slave room, the other slaves were also driven out one by one, and walked in different directions under the leadership of their respective supervisors. They would be assigned to different places and do different jobs, but the disasters they endured
I'm afraid it's not much different.
The dull atmosphere was filled with deep despair, and even a cheerful person like Tang Yan was slightly affected. Think about how you will live in the future with your frail body.
All the way forward, it was like trekking on a rugged mountain road. There were no trees around, and there were only working workers, messy ores, and iron-backed dogs wandering around! The further we walked, these grinning iron-backed dogs
The more dogs!
What do these calf-sized ironbacks do?
After walking a thousand meters away, they witnessed five iron-backed dogs tearing apart a mining slave. The screams and the crunching of bones made the scalps of nearby workers numb and trembling.
The supervisors watched it leisurely and taught their slaves a lesson with examples.
After climbing three low mines in a row and walking for five or six kilometers, Hoffman led Tang Yan and the others to the top of a very high mine. The space in front of them was wide open, a wave of hot air rushed towards them, and boiling fire was everywhere.
Everywhere, it shines on this world.
In front of you is a pit that stretches for hundreds of kilometers. It is densely packed with workers and all kinds of terrifying monsters. There are all kinds of sonorous sounds, screams and roars. This is a real fire mine!
A complete hell on earth!
In the center of the mine, there is a thousand-foot tower furnace with branches reaching into the sky. It is like a huge heaven and earth furnace, and also like a majestic mountain reaching into the sky, guarding this place. This tower furnace has experienced thousands of years of development.
Roasted, the entire body was burnt red, exuding terrifying high temperatures. Thousands of steel passages extended from the ground to the tower furnace, and were covered with working slaves.
The tower furnace is filled with boiling 'mineral water', rolling and swaying inside. Streams of hot 'mineral water' splash out from the tower furnace, spreading to the earth like a rain curtain. The 'mineral water' contains terrifying high temperatures.
It is comparable to magma. Anyone touched by it will have to peel off their skin even if they don't die. Some people are directly submerged in the mineral water, and are evaporated without even letting out a scream.
The closer you get to the tower furnace, the more dangerous it is, because the mineral water there is falling like a rain curtain, and your life will be in danger at any time.
The cruel scene can be felt even from a distance.
"The leaders have given special instructions. You are all martial arts sects and have strong endurance, so... you will work near the cauldron. Although it is dangerous there, the working hours are short and the pay is good." Hoffman smiled maliciously.
, his eyes swept over the five people with pale faces, and he roared: "Let's go!!"
Tang Yan took a deep breath, clenched his fists and took a step forward. There was no point in retreating. Trying to escape from here was nothing more than wishful thinking. Not to mention whether he could escape to the ground above 20,000 meters.
In this mine, there are tens of thousands of iron-backed dogs densely packed, as well as an astonishing number of ghost-faced spiders and five-color mangoes. Most of these monsters are at the second and third levels. They devour living people all year round and become extremely cruel and bloodthirsty.
.
Once someone wants to escape, they will find it before the overseer and take action.
Hoffman led them to a place less than a hundred meters away from the Qianzhang Tower Furnace. The scorching high temperature burned their skin, rolling heat waves hit their faces, and dense mineral water fell from the sky, falling to the ground and splashing in all directions.
Bang!! A nearly 100 kilograms of mineral water fell next to them and splashed violently. The stocky man among the five was the first to bear the brunt. His whole body turned into holes and let out a shrill scream. Tang Yan and the others were not spared. The mineral water
It burst into the body, piercing through the body like a sharp arrow, and the pain was unbearable.
"Hiss!" He grinned in pain, his face turned pale, and he was desperately trying to use his spiritual energy to heal the wound.
"Be careful, don't get burned." Hoffman chuckled, and stamped on the screaming man. He stomped ten meters away and rolled to the side of two ghost-faced spiders. The two monsters let out weird screams.
, seemed extremely excited.
"Get away, you bastards!" The man's face was gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and stood up.
"Fifty meters wide, fifty meters long, and half a meter deep. This is your first round of work. After you finish it, you can drink water, eat, and have three-quarters of an hour's rest. Now, start!" Hoffman
Holding the iron whip and standing to the side, three calf-like iron-backed dogs came over, hugged him affectionately, and grinned to warn Tang Yan and the others.
Tang Yan and the others dared not speak out in anger, but silently used their protective spiritual power to resist the splashing mineral water as much as possible.
There were piles of messy tools next to him. Tang Yan picked up an iron awl and hit it with all his strength towards the ground, but... Clang! The metal and stone jingled, the clang was harsh, and the hard ground did not move at all. However, he was knocked down by the shock and fell on his back, with both hands
Flesh abrasions.
"Are you okay?" Du Yang hurriedly came over to help him up, but was met with an iron whip from Hoffman.
Snapped!!
Du Yang's shoulder was a bloody mess, and he almost knelt on the ground in pain.
"Little bastard, who asked you to help me? Work!!" Hoffman roared.
"You fucking idiot..." Du Yang was furious.
"Don't be impulsive, I can do it." Tang Yan reminded Du Yang. He suppressed the anger in his heart, picked up the iron awl and silently used his spiritual power. Clang, sparks flew out, and cracks finally appeared on the ground, but Tang Yan's hands were shocked again.
dripping with blood.
"Think of it as training, body training!" Xu Yan stood not far away, picked out a huge iron pillar from the mess of tools, waved it casually a few times in his hand, and struck the ground with a bang.
, the ground trembled, gravel splashed, and a hole the size of a head was blasted out of the ground as hard as steel.
Hiss!! Both Tang Yan and Du Yang, as well as the other two, looked a little surprised. What kind of strange power is this?
Even Hoffman was startled for a moment, the terrifying power!
Xu Yan himself was startled for a moment, he was very dissatisfied with the effect in front of him.
"Work for me! Work! Work quickly!!" Hoffman swung the iron whip hard, and the crackles of the whip exploded in the air one after another, making people's scalp numb.
"Learning patience is like honing your martial arts skills." Tang Yan took a deep breath and used his spiritual power according to the method of Lieyan Jue. He split two cones in an instant, superimposing twice the force, and finally blasted away the ground, but it was only a palm-sized cone.
A small area, and the surface is peeled off.
Come again!!
Clang Clang Clang!!
Tang Yan corrected his mentality and regarded digging as slashing, constantly increasing his speed. He could already perform the triple attack of flames. If he continued to practice like this, he should be able to consolidate and launch an attack on the quadruple attack.
But Tang Yan's body was too weak, so he waved wildly for a while and fell to the ground tiredly.
"Work! Work! You old bastard!! Don't even think about being lazy!!" Hoffman screamed strangely, and he was beaten with a series of iron whips, causing the skin to be torn and blood to be splattered everywhere.
Tang Yan was shaking all over and his face was pale, but he still gritted his teeth and carried it hard.
I can't help it, my body is too old.
Fortunately, the Immortal Expansion Technique can quickly repair the injury, so that the person will not lose the ability to work after a severe beating.
Du Yang was in the most difficult situation. The spiritual power in his body could only barely maintain the protective spiritual power to avoid being burned by the mineral water. As for mining, he had to rely on physical strength. In exchange, he only received splashing sparks, but he could not dig into the ground.
This weak performance also angered Hoffman, and the iron whip was applied again and again, beating him to pieces.
Xu Yan and the other two men are both veritable martial arts masters. Their strength is basically at its peak, and the progress of mining is pretty good. Compared with each other, Tang Yan and Du Yang seem to be two problematic figures, one of whom is always lying on the ground.
They were gasping for air and could not dig out the ground for a long time. Hoffman was furious and kept a close eye on them, whipping them over and over again.
Seeing how pitiful they were, Xu Yan came over to help, but what he got in return was an angry scolding from Hoffman and an iron whip.
He had gotten into a fight with the old and the young, directly treating them as problem persons, silently thinking about how to kill them and replace them with a few new powerful mine slaves.
Tang Yan and Du Yang endured it silently, telling themselves to be strong over and over again, and encouraging each other with their eyes over and over again.
Both of them have strong wills. While enduring hardships, they temper themselves and encourage each other.
The red earth is dotted with busy mining slaves. Anyone who can work here was once a warrior with a third-level martial spirit or above, and there were even some warriors at the martial arts level. If they were in the outside world, their strength was astonishing and they were honored.
Trapped in this endless mine, he can only become a slave of the mine. The rich spiritual power in his body can not only condense the protective spiritual power to protect himself, but also blast away at the ground as hard as steel.
There is no way around this. As the major mines in the Taiwu Mining Area continue to dig downwards, the toughness of the rock has exceeded imagination. It is difficult for ordinary slaves to disintegrate it when it is five thousand meters. When it reaches ten thousand meters, it is difficult to break it.
Sometimes, there are some places that cannot be blasted away by ordinary martial arts alone. From 10,000 meters down, there are more and more such hard places, and it becomes more and more difficult to dig. So far, one-fifth of the places need to be dug.
Only a third-level martial spirit or even a martial sect can break through it.
Fortunately, as they mined further, the purity of the ore became higher and higher, high-quality crystals emerged in endlessly, and the benefits were still much higher than the investment, inspiring them to continue digging.
