Volume 6: Wangchuan Chapter 15 Qiu Shiyin
"The Source Demon King has entered Huangquan?!" Lu Qingshan was shocked and asked in confusion: "How did he pass the restrictions of the Huangquan boundary wall?"
"This is almost an open secret," Ji Chuan nodded and explained, "In the Yellow Springs, there is a magical artifact called the Nine Netherworld Geomancy Map. Somehow it was rolled out from the space crack and was picked up by the Source Demon King, who was still a little demon at the time. Outsiders do not know what kind of magical power the Nine Netherworld Geomancy Map has. But it has a special ability that is well known. It can wrap up the Source Demon King and allow him to enter the Yellow Springs realm unimpeded. It is also because of this great fortune that after obtaining the Nine Netherworld Geomancy Map, the Source Demon King has grown into an eighth-grade great demon king after thousands of years."
Lu Qingshan was silent.
In this case, this Source Demon King is not only a man of great luck, but he can definitely be called a hero.
It is a crime to possess a treasure.
But not everyone can rise after obtaining a great treasure.
In fact, most people will only bring themselves terrible disasters after obtaining divine treasures.
“As for the Source Stone Orchid Vein, it is a special vein formed under the attack of the Yellow Spring Death Qi. As long as the Yellow Spring Death Qi continues to flow, it will continue to be generated. It can be said to be a very profitable thing.
It is a special spiritual mineral that looks like an orchid and contains deathly energy.
The magic weapon made of source stone orchid as the main material has the effect of draining the blood and energy of the cultivator's body. It is hard to defend against and is deeply loved by the cultivators of the underworld. Therefore, it is also extremely popular and the profits it brings cannot be underestimated.
There are hundreds of large and small cultivation families in Zangling, most of which are built on the Genjilan mine.
The largest source stone orchid vein is the one we are in front of.
It belongs to the Qiu family under the Sword Sect, and they are responsible for mining it, but every year they have to sell eight percent of the total number of source stone orchids they mine to our Sword Sect." Ji Chuan explained.
The 20% that the Qiu family can get is equivalent to labor fees, which is quite high.
Lu Qingshan was secretly shocked when he thought so.
Ji Chuan said as he and Lu Qingshan slowly landed, "With the reputation of our Sword Sect behind us, no one dares to provoke the Qiu family in Zangling, and they are gradually growing stronger by controlling this source stone orchid vein.
But in the past three months, many of the source monsters that were supposed to stay in the restricted area ran out for some unknown reason.
They broke into the Qiu family's source stone orchid mine, wantonly attacked the Qiu family's cultivators, and occupied the source stone orchid mine.
The Qiu family has fought against these source monsters many times and suffered heavy losses every time.
The last time, the Qiu family even lost a cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage in the mine.
Moreover, it was not just the Qiu family. Almost all the families in Zangling had encountered this situation. They had been unable to find the source of the disaster. For a time, people were in a panic and no one dared to mine the Yuanshilan vein anymore.
This situation is not going to work, and the Qiu family can no longer tolerate further losses, so they sent a spiritual letter to our Sword Sect asking for help."
"What do the Qiu family mean when they say that the shadow of the underworld is haunting in it?" While saying this, Lu Qingshan's gaze was fixed on the withered yellow entrance of the mine not far away.
For some reason, he felt as if there was an extremely obscure and strange aura seeping out from there.
"The Qiu family said that a disciple from one of the branches saw a cultivator leaving the Yuanshilan mine. The cultivator was surrounded by demonic energy and was extremely terrifying. He must be a demon cultivator from the underworld, so they judged that this matter must be related to a cultivator from the underworld." Ji Chuan replied.
"Haha..." Lu Qingshan sneered, with a cold light flashing in his eyes, "The water this time is very deep."
Ji Chuan nodded in agreement, "Indeed, that's why I took over this task myself to find out the truth."
Both of them are shrewd people.
The monk from the underworld left the mine. It was not a life-or-death situation. Why did he release the devilish energy? And he happened to be seen by someone?
Did you reveal your identity intentionally?
How could the monks from the underworld act so recklessly?
How could things be so coincidental?
"Let's go over and take a look at the situation first." Ji Chuan said.
Because there were many source monsters scattered in the source stone orchid mine, the people of the Qiu family were unable to eradicate them. After losing a Yuanying elder, all the people had already withdrawn from the mine.
Yuan Shilan is important, but life is more important!
At this time, the Yuanshilan mine was already empty.
In order to avoid being influenced by the subjective words of others and making preconceived and wrong judgments.
Therefore, Ji Chuan and Lu Qingshan decided to first go to the Shilan mine to check the situation in person, and then go to the Qiu family to inquire about the details.
The two confirm each other, and the conclusions drawn are more objective.
The two of them flashed towards the entrance of the mine .
As soon as they reached the cave entrance, both of them frowned.
whoosh!
At this moment, a small figure rushed out of the mine in a panic.
How could there be someone in the Yuanshilan mine?
Behind the human figure was a demon ape, about several meters tall and pitch black all over. It looked as if it was wrapped in a layer of rock, and bursts of violent demonic energy constantly flashed out of its body.
Ji Chuan's eyes focused, and a stream of sword energy shot out in an instant. With a "puff", the sword energy burst out from the demon ape's head.
The demon ape, which was originally powerful and ferocious, had its brain and blood spurted out and died instantly .
But the small figure seemed to have not reacted yet, and in a panic, he bumped into Ji Chuan.
The moment the figure rushed towards him, Ji Chuan exerted all his spiritual power and bounced the figure away.
Affected by the huge impact force, the figure flew backwards uncontrollably.
At this time, Lu Qingshan had already seen the true face of this figure.
She was a girl with a baby face and a somewhat childish look.
His cultivation level is not high, he is in the initial stage of foundation building.
However, Lu Qingshan also knew that he could not compare the outer sect cultivators with those from the Taoist sect.
Therefore, he guessed that since this girl had such high cultivation level, her actual age should be much older than she looked.
"It hurts so much." The girl rubbed her waist and climbed up, complaining subconsciously.
Then she suddenly realized her situation. Like a frightened little rabbit, she quickly stood up and rushed out of the cave. At the same time, she called out to Lu Qingshan and Ji Chuan, "There is a source demon chasing me. You guys should run too..."
The sound stopped abruptly.
Because Ji Chuan grabbed the female cultivator who was about to rush past them.
"The source demon has been dealt with." Ji Chuan said lightly.
The reckless female cultivator was stunned when she heard this, and then she remembered to look back.
However, he found that the demon ape that had been chasing him earlier had now become a dead body.
"Did you solve it?" the female cultivator asked, eyes wide open.
Lu Qingshan pointed at Ji Chuan and said, "He solved it."
Seeing that the danger was over, the female cultivator calmed down. She turned her head and looked at Ji Chuan and Lu Qingshan curiously with her big, bright black eyes.
"Are you here to make extra money too?" the female cultivator pointed deep into the mine and asked curiously.
"Earn extra money?" Ji Chuan was stunned.
Lu Qingshan had a vague idea of what the female cultivator meant, and continued, "You have a very good connection?"
"Of course," the female cultivator raised her voice several notches higher, patted her chest and said complacently, "My name is Qiu Shiyin, I'm from the Qiu family, and I was previously responsible for monitoring the mining of the Yuanshilan mine. I'm very familiar with the situation here."
