The first chapter at the beginning of the second edition, a strange point in time
Henan County, Chongming County, Xiaoqiu Mountain area, Chenjiaxuan iron ore vein.
Within the black iron veins, the long and narrow mine caves are filled with dim firelight, and the moss on the walls of the mine caves exudes a faint light.
At this time, there were constant sounds of smashing and smashing coming from all over the empty mine. It was the Chenjiafang miners who were mining the ore veins.
At the same time, in a stone room inside the mine, a young man suddenly woke up sweating profusely.
"hehe……"
After taking a few deep breaths, his breath calmed down, and his mind gradually settled down, Chen Hongyu began to look around at the scene around him.
The furnishings of this stone room are extremely simple, with nothing more than a bed, a table and a chair.
In addition, the flaming alchemy furnace placed in the center of the stone room is somewhat precious.
"Red stove?" Chen Hongyu couldn't help but widen his eyes as he looked at the red pill stove that was still blazing.
This red stove was obtained from his family after he had just reached the second level of Qi Refining and came into contact with the Alchemy Way.
However, this red stove had already been given to the younger generations of the family after he reached the late stage of Qi Refining.
Now, how could he appear in front of him again?
At this time, his mind was completely calm, feeling his weak cultivation and the familiar scenes in the surrounding stone chamber.
"I, am I reborn?" Looking down at his slightly immature hands, bloody scenes flashed through Chen Hongyu's mind.
A moment ago, he was recruited by the affiliated sect to participate in the battle of monsters and was about to die.
The next moment, he woke up in the stone room and returned to his boyhood.
Seven years ago, the Chen family discovered a first-grade high-grade black iron mine on this hill, and immediately organized manpower to mine it.
The Chen family is a new foundation-building family. Although the family is strong, they still attach great importance to the newly discovered black iron mine.
The relatively safe Xuantie Mine area has always been used as a training ground for family members who have made some achievements in spiritual practice.
Family monks generally start to go out to practice after the third level of Qi refining, and participate in the management of various family affairs.
Although this black iron mine is relatively precious, it is barely close to the family hinterland and has always been relatively safe. It is the first choice place for those who are newly promoted to the third level of Qi Refining to gain experience.
His qualifications are barely above average, and it is only a matter of time before he reaches the ninth level of Qi Refining, and there is even a chance to reach the foundation building stage.
Therefore, after he was promoted to the third level of Qi Refining, his family sent him to this black iron vein to take charge.
If he had not been reborn at this time, he would naturally happily accept this relatively easy and safe task.
However, for him who had been reborn from the next life, there was a deep and lingering sense of crisis in his heart.
"Iron-eating beast!" A flash of light flashed in Chen Hongyu's eyes, and he couldn't help but clenched his hands tightly.
According to the normal development trajectory, in the second year after I sit in this black iron vein, an iron-eating beast will appear in the vein.
The iron-eating beast feeds on all kinds of metal mineral veins, and it is especially fond of spiritual minerals such as black iron. At the same time, it is extremely bloodthirsty and will definitely attack and devour monks when it encounters them.
For the human race, the flesh, flesh, bones and inner elixirs of monster beasts are of great use. In turn, devouring the flesh and blood of monks will naturally promote the cultivation of monster beasts.
In the memory of the previous life, this iron-eating beast suddenly appeared in the mine veins, killed many miners, and then came to devour itself with incomparable ferocity.
That iron-eating beast is a second-level mid-level monster. He is only at the peak of the third level of Qi refining, so he is naturally unable to compete with it.
Although the family elders finally arrived, the foundation of his physical body was irreparably damaged, so he never had the chance to achieve foundation building.

After a lifetime of hard work, he has barely reached the seventh level of Qi refining and has entered the threshold of the later stage of Qi refining.
However, in this life, since I have been reborn and know the next development, I must find a way to avoid this crisis.
"Fortunately, there is still time. Next, we need to inform the family as soon as possible."
Although monks have a strong mind, their memory will become stronger and stronger as their cultivation level improves.
Even though he was already seventy or eighty years old when he was reborn, the disaster involving the iron-eating beast was still the deepest memory in his heart.
However, although he has been reborn now, he is in the stone room where he stayed for a year.
The almost constant scene in the stone chamber made it impossible for him to know where he was in time.
"Although I have been reborn, no memory of the current 'me' has been retained.
Could it be that this is the ‘I’ who died in a fight to the death in the late stage of Qi refining in the future, taking over the ‘I’ who was still young and whose foundation of work has not been damaged?”
Shaking his head, Chen Hongyu suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his mind.
No matter what the situation is, at least you are still yourself, and if you have another chance to do it again, you should cherish it, and there is no need to worry about priorities.
While he was thinking in his mind, the red stove in the corner of the stone room suddenly made a sound, and then there was a strong medicinal fragrance.
Smelling the medicinal fragrance, Chen Hongyu immediately walked to the red stove.
Looking at the fifteen round Yuan Yang Dan lying quietly at the bottom of the alchemy furnace, Chen Hongyu showed a deep look of despair on his face.
At first, I thought it was impossible to know the time, but now there is a prompt.
At this time in the previous life, I was refining a furnace of second-grade low-grade Yuanyuan Dan. After the pill was completed, I continued to place it in the furnace to nourish the medicinal power, making the medicine even more effective.
And when the iron-eating beast came to attack, it happened to be the time when the Yangyuan Pill was finished gestating.
In other words, although he has not yet met the iron-eating beast, it is very likely that the iron-eating beast has appeared in the black iron mine and has even set his sights on him.
Resurrecting my life, I originally thought I could change the tragedy of my previous life
Unexpectedly, I was reborn at such an embarrassing time, and I was still unable to change my fate of damaged foundation.
Thinking of this, Chen Hongyu was heartbroken, "Although I am also at the third level of Qi refining, my application of calligraphy and decades of fighting experience are far beyond ordinary in the early stage of Qi refining and even in the Qi refining stage after I was reborn.
Compared with monks in the middle period.
Even though that beast is a second-level mid-level monster, I will never let him take advantage of me.
Even though my foundation may still be damaged, this iron-eating beast must stay."
At this moment, a mechanical cold voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
"System loading is about to end!"
"Loading is complete. This loading has taken a total of one hundred and fifty years. Does the host enable the system?"
"System?" Chen Hongyu was shocked, feeling that he had finally found a glimmer of hope in a desperate situation.
