Wang Daoyuan walked down the tunnel. The tunnel was winding and seemed to be transformed from a natural cave.
Every time you pass through a section of the tunnel, there are monks checking it.
After walking for a cup of tea, we arrived at the bottom of the tunnel.
The gatekeepers were two peak cultivators from the Zi Mansion, and Wang Daoyuan handed the token to them.
They penetrated the token with their spiritual senses, checked it, and returned the token to Wang Daoyuan.
Then, Wang Daoyuan opened the stone wall behind him and walked in.
Behind this stone wall is not a city, but a small castle, where more than a dozen late-stage and peak-level Zifu monks are stationed.
After Wang Daoyuan came in, a peak cultivator from the Zi Mansion walked out of the castle, came to the stone wall, and asked Wang Daoyuan: "My fellow Taoist is extremely talented, do you want to join the Blood Demon Army?"
It is said that the Blood Demon Army is a subordinate of the Golden Core Demon Cultivator and is usually responsible for managing all affairs in this underground space.
Wang Daoyuan cupped his hands and said, "Zhou is a laid-back person and doesn't like to be restrained.
I came to Blood Demon City this time because I wanted to see the holy land of our blood demon cultivators. I have no intention of joining the blood demon army, so please forgive me, fellow Taoist."
Most demon cultivators do not like to be restrained, and there are very few casual cultivators who are willing to join the Blood Demon Army, and it is not easy to force this peak cultivator from the Zi Mansion.
He smiled regretfully and said, "In that case, I won't force it.
If my fellow Taoist changes his mind in the future, he can come to me at any time."
The two exchanged pleasantries for a few words, and Wang Daoyuan walked around the castle and walked inside.
After entering the stone wall, the space inside is no longer a cave, but is carved out of the rock layer.
The underground space is hundreds of feet high and can't be seen to the side at a glance.
In the underground space, magical instruments are often used for lighting, so it does not feel dark.
There are vegetation and other things around, and there are rivers and lakes on the ground.
There are even some small hills, and many caves have been opened on the mountains.
Except for the stone wall above and the stone pillars supporting the rock formations above, it is no different from the outside.
Wang Daoyuan couldn't help but sigh, how much manpower and material resources did it take to dig out such a large underground space?
After passing the stone wall and walking more than ten miles inside, you will find the Blood Demon City.
Blood Demon City is a square city with a side length of more than fifty miles, located at the northern edge of the entire underground space.
The upper and lower walls of the city are connected to the rock formations, and there are only a few gates for entry and exit.
Wang Daoyuan came to the city gate, showed his token and entered the city.
The city is no different from an ordinary human monk city. There are various shops and some small demon cultivator families.
Blood Demon City has a formation that softens the violent spiritual energy. There are ordinary humans living in the city. It is said that there are quite a few of them, perhaps close to one million.
They are all descendants of demon cultivators. From birth to death, they cannot leave the Blood Demon City at all.
These ordinary people can't be of much help to the monks, but they can give birth to offspring with spiritual roots, which is an important source of demonic cultivation.
With Cui Ming's memory, he also has some understanding of the Blood Demon City.
However, he still pretended to know nothing, walked around the city, and finally chose an inn to stay.
I usually hang out at the place where I eat, asking for all kinds of information.
After more than a month, he had some detailed information and began to go out to look for work.
In the south of Blood Demon City, there is a place where tasks are released, which is also a place where you can find work, called the Task Hall.
Wang Daoyuan came to the mission hall and found that there were quite a lot of people.
After all, demon cultivators also need to practice.
Cultivation requires various resources, and work is inevitable.
In the center of this place is a large hall with three characters "mission hall" written on it.
Around the main hall are things similar to bulletin boards.
These bulletin boards are made from some kind of spiritual jade, and the information on them is engraved with divine consciousness.
When many magic cultivators saw a suitable mission, they took their tokens and went to the mission hall to pick up the mission.
For example, mining ores, breeding ferocious beasts, guarding spiritual fields, refining weapons, refining elixirs, etc.
The job of mining ores is particularly suitable for Wang Daoyuan, after all, he is here to find the spiritual fire.
Metallic spiritual fire is either in the spiritual veins or in the mineral veins.
If you want to find spiritual fire, mining is the most suitable way.
Cui Ming has done this job before, but he was not strong enough and was bullied in the mine.
I couldn't earn spiritual stones there, so I left.
Wang Daoyuan came to the mining task bar and looked over with his spiritual sense to check the task information.
One of the messages is "Dig the Tiansha gold mine. For every kilogram of Tiansha gold, you will be rewarded with one thousand spirit stones. There is no limit to the number of places."
Wang Daoyuan was a little stunned and asked in surprise: "There is actually a Tiansha gold mine?"
A late-stage Zifu monk next to him laughed and said: "What does the Tiansha Gold Mine mean? There is also the Taiyi Fine Gold Mine in this Blood Demon City, but it is not open to the public.
Otherwise, anyone who goes to mine will have their heads crushed."
Wang Daoyuan was a little happy when he heard about Taiyi Gold Mine.
If you can get a large amount of Taiyi Fine Gold, it will be easy to upgrade the White Tiger Blade.
At the moment, it would be better to go to the Tiansha Gold Mine. There is a lot of Tiansha Gold, which will also be helpful for upgrading the White Tiger Blade.
He went to the mission hall, handed his token to an elderly monk in the late Zifu period, and said: "Take over the mission of the Tiansha Gold Mine."
The old monk had a look of astonishment on his face, but he didn't say anything.
His spiritual consciousness penetrated his token and engraved something on it.
Then he handed him a jade slip and said: "This is the specific situation of the mission, just do it as required.
If you fail to meet the minimum standard for completing the mission, you will not be able to leave the mine, nor will you be able to take on other missions."
The other demon cultivators who were queuing up to receive the mission also looked incredulous.
Some people whispered: "Is this guy a fool? He dares to take over the task of the Tiansha Gold Mine. That place is full of people who have committed crimes and are being punished."
Ten people go in, but nine people can't get out. It's very difficult to practice in there."
Wang Daoyuan did not take their words seriously, took the jade slip, checked the specific contents, and left the mission hall.
This Tiansha gold mine is more than five hundred miles due west of Blood Demon City.
In general, mines require inspection of space treasures in order to prevent someone from stealing the ore.
Wang Daoyuan also put the Qiankun Ring and most of the storage bags and spirit beast bags into the spirit bead space.
Only two storage bags were left, containing the bone sword and some miscellaneous elixirs and talismans.
The soft armor and Forbidden God silk cloak on his body had also been put away long ago.
Now he is no different from an ordinary poor demon cultivator.
Yu Jian came to the entrance of Tiansha Gold Mine and showed his token to a ferocious-looking peak cultivator from Zi Mansion.
After taking the token and checking it, he said: "Leave the token here with me and let me check the storage bag.
No one will care if you make any noise in the mine, but when you come out, you must hand over 500 kilograms of Tiansha gold.
Don't even think about escaping. There are formations everywhere you can get out.
If you have the ability to dig another passage, just pretend I didn't tell you."
Wang Daoyuan didn't take it seriously. He was familiar with digging holes.
During the foundation building period, he had dug hundreds of miles of holes, and he had never seen a rock formation that the Guichen Flame could not burn through.
After finding the spiritual fire, it is not difficult to directly dig a hole and escape from the underground space.
He took off the two storage bags from his waist and handed them to the evil monk.
After checking the storage bag, he cursed: "Another poor guy."
After that, he returned the bone sword and storage bag to Wang Daoyuan, and he took away all the miscellaneous things.
Although this guy was greedy, he also knew how to use caution and did not take away the only magic weapon.
Then, he opened the mine door and Wang Daoyuan walked in.
As soon as I entered the mine, I felt a strong evil aura coming towards my face.
Near the mine gate, the ore has been hollowed out long ago. How can there still be such a strong evil spirit? How strong must the evil spirit be near the ore?
If monks below the Zi Mansion stay here, their minds will soon be affected by evil spirits.
Although the Zifu monks are not easily affected by spiritual consciousness, their physical bodies will be eroded if they live in such a place for a long time.
No wonder so many people were surprised when he was asked to take on the Tiansha Gold Mine mission.
When cultivating here, you have to worry about hurting your physical body. You only consume your spiritual energy, but it cannot be replenished.
