Miao Zhantian continued, "Even for me, it would be difficult to defeat him in his illusion. When we hunt Qianhuan for the last time, we must completely separate him from this world."
In the ancient times, when she fought against Qian Huan, she had the support of Mi Tian; now, she has to rely on her own team and her own abilities.
……
Luo Xie was about to return to the village when suddenly a voice lingered in his ears. He was startled and stopped, then turned on his toes and ran directly to the middle of the hillside.
The hillside is empty, where is the person?
Luo Xie was looking around when a mountain breeze blew from the side. The pollen carried in the wind made him sneeze. When he opened his eyes again, he saw a number of people standing in front of him. Leading them were a few people wearing wide robes and tall hats. They looked dignified and somewhat familiar.
He recognized one of the faces; it was the Purple Jade Immortal, whose surname was Liu!
“Liu, Immortal Venerable Liu!” Luo Xie’s eyes widened in shock, and his voice became stammering, “You, you…”
So suddenly, the immortal came to visit the village in person. Is he here for the barrier on the hill?
It seems that my decision to order the people of Yu Village to evacuate as soon as possible was the right one.
He glanced at the village below and then remembered to pay respect. His grandfather had always taught him to show respect to the Immortal Lord from the bottom of his heart. But Elder Liu seemed to be unconcerned and said directly: "The demon wants to seize the mine. You are most familiar with it. Lead the way for us."
Luo Xie didn't want to abandon the villagers at this critical moment, but he had to obey the immortal's orders.
He hesitated for a moment: "My grandfather's behavior just now was a little strange. I'm a little worried about my brother. Can I..."
Aunt Zhu sent a message to the other two people: "This kid is really good at seizing opportunities to bargain."
Elder Liu was very straightforward and pointed out a disciple of the Illusion Sect: "Go to his home and take care of him. Make sure to find the child back."
"Yes."
Luo Xie was also relieved. With Elder Liu's status as an immortal, if he said "must", the disciples of Huan Zong could not be perfunctory: "My home is on a low hill one mile southeast of Yu Village. There are morning glories entwined on the fence of the yard. There is only one family there, so it is easy to spot."
He Lingchuan and others immediately summoned the Haoyuan Golden Mirror, explained the destination, and then took Luo Xie and stepped in.
The Xuanjing Mine Cave is located in a mountainous area three and a half miles northwest of Yu Village. The road is rugged and has many dangerous cliffs, and outsiders often encounter dead ends.
Luo Xie is the Illusion Sect's newest disciple. This is his first time traveling through the Haoyuan Golden Mirror, and he is shocked when he arrives at the place.
He Lingchuan and others were already standing at the entrance of the Xuanjing Mine.
The entrance to the cave is small and hidden, hidden behind several rows of giant banyan trees with lush branches and leaves. Both the entrance to the cave and the path for transporting ore are completely blocked by trees.
There is an open space at the entrance of the cave, with a few simple wooden houses standing under the wall. The mine guards are on duty here at night, and the miners are here to screen and wash the ore during the day.
Silver Pearl Island was almost turned upside down tonight, but it was still very quiet, as if it was isolated from the world.
Aunt Zhu looked around: "Sure enough, they haven't arrived yet."
Therefore, we still have a little first-mover advantage.
They appeared silently, but a group of bats on the tree suddenly took off. The door of the wooden house opened and two people rushed out, holding weapons in their hands and with faces full of doubt.
This is the guard on duty in the mine. He has been on high alert tonight and comes out to check as soon as he hears any movement outside.
Luo Xie was about to step forward and order the two of them to leave, but Elder Liu reached out to stop him.
The two men glanced around the open space, as if they couldn't see the crowd, and turned back to the house.
He Lingchuan then whispered to Luo Xie: "We are all invisible, and neither outsiders nor the demons can see us."
So Luo Xie led everyone to the entrance of the mine. Aunt Zhu quietly placed two eyeball spiders on the tree outside the cave.
This little thing will now deform, its body will shrink, its color will change, and it will look as if it is standing still, just like two tender green leaves.
Hiding among the leaves in the forest is the best way to hide.
Aunt Zhu had also coated them with a layer of mirage powder in advance, which was as effective as invisibility. This was a treasured treasure gifted by Xiao Wencheng, and its magical power came from Qianhuan, and it was said that even Miao Zhantian's true eye could not see through it.
The restriction at the entrance of the mine can recognize people. Luo Xie blew on the restriction again, and a cold wind came out of the mine.
"Okay, we can go in now." Luo Xie didn't waste any time and walked in first. "There are four or five mechanisms inside the cave entrance. They will be activated at night. I'll take you through them first!"
He couldn't help but look down at himself. Was this the invisible state? It didn't seem like there was anything special about it.
The mine was deep and the Haoyuan Golden Mirror could not accurately locate the mine, so everyone could only walk down the cave.
The mine tunnels here are no different from the ones He Lingchuan had walked through before. They are winding and intricate, the passages are short and narrow, and water seepage is common. There are artificial supports at every section.
The air here is relatively humid, and there are many water holes in the mine tunnels, which are holes eroded by groundwater over the years. The small ones can only fit a finger, while the large ones can fit more than a dozen people.
It was the first time for He Lingchuan and Dong Rui to enter the black crystal mine cave, and they were quite curious. They passed by several stone holes, all of which had traces of knife and axe chiseling. Obviously, there were mines here before, but they were dug away by miners. But now tiny green or light yellow crystal clusters condensed in the holes, the smallest was no bigger than a fingernail, and the largest was about the size of a pigeon egg.
If it were placed in the outside world three years ago, these small amounts of black crystals would have been fought over fiercely, but here, no one cared about them at all, even the miners disdained them.
Luo Xie pointed at them and said, "The finished black crystals produced in these holes were harvested three years ago. Up to now, they have only grown a few small buds."
He led everyone through the mine tunnels, as if he was walking through his own kitchen. He pointed to a few places and said to He Lingchuan, "I think it's a good idea to set up an ambush in these places."
This coincides with He Lingchuan's idea.
He winked at the Spider Queen, and Aunt Zhu jumped over immediately.
Dong Rui immediately asked: "Is the Pengqi raised by your grandfather familiar with you? Does he usually pay attention to you?"
There was a meaning to his words. He was not asking whether Luo Xie and Pengqi were familiar with each other, but whether Pengqi paid any attention to Luo Xie.
"Yes." Luo Xie said, "It has watched me grow up. My grandfather wouldn't let me get close to it, but I have actually touched it since I was a child."
"Can you call it out?"
Luo Xie subconsciously glanced at Elder Liu.
Pengqi is a mobile treasure trove. The Huan Sect has a strict set of regulations for its breeding. No one except Old Man Luo can feed it or get close to it.
Elder Liu said kindly, "You can speak frankly. I won't blame you."
At this time, how could the Huan Sect still care about the old rules?
Luo Xie then said, "When I was young, I was playing in the mountains and accidentally fell into the valley. I couldn't move. It was Pengqi who brought me back to the village. When my grandfather was not around, I would occasionally play with him."
He quickly added: "But that was before I was ten years old. After I learned the rules, I stopped getting close to it."
"So you're not sure if you can summon it?"
"Yes."
He Lingchuan had been sizing up Luo Xie, and suddenly asked, "Are you also a disciple of the Illusion Sect? Why do you have some demonic energy on you?"
Luo Xie's expression changed slightly. He had covered it up so well, how come this person could tell right away? "When I was young, I was weak and would have died, but I accidentally swallowed a demon pill and my body got better. I also have more strength than an ordinary person. When I was five years old, the Illusion Sect came to the village to select candidates and picked me right away."
Dong Rui said, "Then what you took was not the demon pill. That thing will not transmit the demonic energy to you."
He Lingchuan took out the soul-capturing mirror and shone it on him twice. Dong Rui and the ghost ape immediately leaned over to take a look, and neither of them said a word.
Elder Liu also looked at it and frowned slightly.
Luo Xie also wanted to see it, but He Lingchuan immediately asked him: "Who gave you the demon pill?"
"My mother only said that she bought it from the pharmacy."
"Did you learn all this Kung Fu from the Huan Sect?" He Lingchuan looked at him, "It doesn't look like you have only practiced for a dozen years."
This young man is full of spirit and energy. He Lingchuan has led countless troops and promoted many generals. Just by looking at his eyebrows, body and demeanor, you can tell that he is a decisive and ruthless character.
Luo Xie glanced at Elder Liu and said, "I am a disciple of Elder Xu, but I have only heard him give a public lecture once. He even looked at me and said that I was too murderous and would be troubled by inner demons in the future. But the uncle who taught me the skills was a very good person and did not hide anything from me."
He led everyone to a fork in the road and said, "Five years ago, the Storm Wall disappeared, and the Yakshas in the lake came out in groups to cause trouble again. They came near Yu Village, and I stabbed several of them to death. My uncle who taught me the skills reported my achievement to the sect afterwards, and Sect Leader Xiao rewarded me with this set of double swords. It is said that they are ancient weapons that killed many powerful people a long, long time ago."
"Master, you want your mind to be peaceful and drive away the murderous intent, right?"
Luo Xie thought for a moment and said, "That's not the original words, but the meaning is right."
Dong Rui smiled and said, "I think, why don't you try 'proving the truth by killing'?"
Luo Xie was startled: "By...killing the righteous?"
"Some people are born with a certain temperament. Forcibly suppressing it is like storing flood water. Sooner or later, it will burst the embankment." He Lingchuan continued, "You are too aggressive and full of vigor. You should go to the battlefield to show your strengths. One of the great terrors of the world is a battlefield with blood and flesh flying everywhere and thousands and tens of thousands of people fighting. I think that is the experience you should endure. Life on Silver Pearl Island is too comfortable."
He was not trying to fool this young man who had never seen the world. This was the path Qiu Hu took.
In fact, after the Middle Ages, many practitioners joined the army, all developing in this direction. What other worldly practice can be more direct and impactful than war?
"A battlefield with thousands and tens of thousands of people." Luo Xie was indeed somewhat yearning for it.
A newbie like him had fought against Yakshas but had never killed anyone. When he heard the word "battlefield", all he felt was longing and yearning.
At this moment, Xiao Wencheng's voice suddenly rang in the ears of He Lingchuan and Elder Liu: "Two lives have been lost in the Luo Xie family. Old Luo and his grandson are both dead, and their bodies are still warm."
He Lingchuan did not pause. The abnormality of "Old Man Luo" just now had already shown that the real owner was in great danger.
