A somewhat irritable priest glared with wide eyes and said in a loud voice: "According to what you said, we can't go into the mine to explore it ourselves?"
Chen Xiao smiled confidently and said, "Senior, please be patient. Although this evil spirit is dangerous, as long as you are fully prepared, you can escape unscathed."
Seeing is believing, hearing is not.
Chen Xiao had never intended to convince everyone with just his words. In the end, they still had to visit the mine.
If it weren't for the protection of Xi Yunting, the human-shaped dragon vein, he would have run away without looking back when he discovered the evil dragon beneath the peaceful appearance of Jiukun Mountain.
The round-eyed priest looked at him suspiciously: "What preparations are you going to make?"
Chen Xiao smiled and said, "Just prepare a few more magical instruments that can restrain the evil spirit and protect yourself, so that you won't be corroded by the evil spirit."
Using magical instruments for protection and the like is a standard method in the world of immortal cultivation. Although there are still many questions, the priest will not ask them too much.
Liu Shaoguang listened with a serious face. If he hadn't wanted to maintain his image, he would have praised Chen Xiao with a thumbs up.
Xi Yunting is the key to preventing the evil dragon from losing control. Only the master and his disciples know this, not even Taixuan has been told.
Chen Xiao was able to confuse a group of people in front of him. This courage and boldness were worthy of his Junior Brother Xi.
Tai Xuan made the decision and said, "In this case, let's wait until Chen Xiao has prepared the magic weapon and then find out what's going on."
After the discussion, the senior executives dispersed and went back to make preparations.
Tai Xuan kept them and asked with concern: "Do you need help in refining magic tools? Although my Chong Xuan Sect is not a sect that focuses on refining tools, we do have masters of refining tools."
Chen Xiao thanked Tai Xuan and said, "I am refining a Feng Shui magic weapon, which is different from ordinary magic weapons. I am afraid these weapon refining masters cannot help me."
Tai Xuan nodded regretfully: "Well, then let Junior Brother Liu take you to the sect's warehouse to pick out the materials you can use. I will remember your hard work and will not let you work in vain."
Chen Xiao said righteously: "I am also half a disciple of Chongxuan, so I should serve you."
After coming out, Liu Shaoguang asked him how much materials he would need and whether he could make a list in advance.
Chen Xiao then touched his nose and said guiltily: "In fact, I only plan to give them a few semi-finished magic tools. With my brother here, as long as they are not too far away, there is no need to refine them specially."
Besides, with his current abilities, he doesn't have the capability to refine a Feng Shui protective magic weapon that can withstand the evil spirit of a vicious dragon that could destroy a country.
He thought Liu Shaoguang would blame him for saying this, but he said, "Even if that's the case, we can't save this trip. Come, I'll make a list for you. I know best what good things are in the warehouse. Just pick the expensive ones. Even if you don't need them, you can sell them for spirit stones and buy what you need."
Chen Xiao looked at him speechlessly. He felt that Senior Brother Liu's dignified, reliable and bright image had completely collapsed, revealing his true face as a money-grubber who put pragmatism above all else.
Xi Yunting patted his shoulder silently. Senior Brother Tao Yi held his sword and said sullenly, "You'll get used to it."
Chen Xiao laughed dryly. At least he was completely accepted, which could be considered good news.
However, Chen Xiao still admired Liu Shaoguang very much. Although he loved money, he made it in a proper way.
The economy of the Chongxuan Sect, which is like a country, is managed very well and is thriving.
He lived a comfortable life, but he knew how to share the benefits equally. No one in the sect was dissatisfied with him or felt that he was unfair.
When they were going back, Xi Yunting said to him, "Brother Xiao, don't look down on Senior Brother Liu's materialism. It was because Master was in financial trouble after taking power that Senior Brother Liu had to step forward and take on this heavy responsibility. If Senior Brother Liu hadn't run around and tried every means to manage the business, stabilize the welfare distribution within the sect, and hold tight the financial power, the turmoil would not have been quelled so quickly."
Chen Xiao shook his head and said, "How could that be? On the contrary, I think Senior Brother Liu is amazing. If it were us, he could be the Prime Minister with his talent."
As he was talking, Chen Xiao suddenly became interested in Xi Yunting and his two senior brothers. "Senior Brother Liu is in charge of finances, but what about Senior Brother Tao? What role does he play?"
Xi Yunting paused for a moment before saying, "Senior Brother Tao was in charge of criminal justice at the time. During the turbulent period, many rebels were killed by his sword."
Chen Xiao was shocked. "Senior Brother Tao doesn't look like a murderous person. And although his aura is strong and intimidating, it doesn't have the ominous smell of killing and blood."
Xi Yunting said, "Senior Brother Tao's sword follows the path of killing. After that period of time, it was a breakthrough for his state of mind. He has passed the stage of stopping killing with killing. In the past hundred years, he has been training everywhere to calm his murderous heart and advance to the next great realm."
Tao Yi is in the out-of-body stage, and the next step he will take is the spirit separation stage.
Liu Shaoguang picked out a lot of materials for Chen Xiao, which were of great value.
Chen Xiao felt embarrassed, so he took out several semi-finished magical instruments he had made before and worked on them all night.
After it was completed, Xi Yunting, the human-shaped dragon vein, was asked to consecrate it personally.
With the blessing of Xi Yunting's aura, these Feng Shui magic tools, which were originally of ordinary quality, suddenly leapt to the best quality. Even if one accidentally walked out of the range of Xi Yunting's protection, they could hold on for a while until someone came to rescue them.
There were not many magical weapons in this batch, and the final number of people, excluding Chen Xiao and Xi Yunting, was only seven.
Liu Shaoguang and Tao Yi took two seats, Taixuan and Taisheng were the two uncles who had to go, and the remaining three seats were finally occupied by the three people with the best cultivation. These three people were the round-eyed worshiper with a bit of a bad temper, a powerful person in charge of the office, and the last one with the lowest cultivation was named by Taixuan - an elder in the Spiritual Stage with earth-type spiritual roots.
Jinghui and the other two hadn't seen them recently, and only until they set out on this day did they accidentally learn that they were going to a dangerous place.
Jing Hui said: "Since this is your sect's action, I can't interfere. But if you need me, please don't hesitate to ask for my help."
Tong Nuonuo didn't care about being shy and said directly: "Xiaoxiao, just take us with you! We have always cooperated very well, and having us here can enhance your combat power."
Chen Xiao said apologetically: "The place we are going to this time is very dangerous. We have to rely on the protection of the seniors of the Chongxuan Sect to dare to go. Let alone fighting, if there is a crisis, we may have to escape."
Tang Ru was as disappointed as Tong Nonuo. She sighed and said, "Nonuo, don't make things difficult for Xiao Xiao. Your cultivation is too low, and you will only cause trouble if you go. The spiritual energy in the Chongxuan Sect is so abundant, you might as well hurry up and cultivate and achieve the Golden Core as soon as possible."
Tong Nuonuo covered her chest, feeling as if she had stabbed her.
There is no harm without comparison. It turns out that he is also a genius who has established a foundation at a young age. You can tell by looking at his face.
But compared with his companions, Chen Xiao, who was still a mortal when they first met, has now reached the Golden Core stage. Tang Ru, who was also at the Foundation Establishment stage, has become a Nascent Soul like a rocket, making his three excellent spiritual roots look like rubbish.
Seeing that his self-confidence had been shattered, Tang Ru Loli showed a mature expression on her face and sighed helplessly, "I will supervise his practice, you guys go on your own."
Chen Xiao looked at them apologetically before turning around and reuniting with the others.
The group took off into the air and flew for a while before arriving at the junction of Bokun Mountain and Zhongkun Mountain.
This was originally a gap between two mountain ridges, which was later expanded into a valley by humans. Since the mine was closed, this place has been abandoned, and the entrance of the cave is slowly being covered by growing vegetation.
There were several powerful people present, and they found the entrance to the mine with just a scan of their spiritual sense.
Taixuan waved out a stream of true energy, and the bushes and vines surrounding the mine were cleared away.
Liu Shaoguang said worriedly, "If it is exposed like this, I am afraid that some disciples will mistakenly enter it and be corroded by the evil spirit."
Tai Xuan said: "This is easy, just set up a magic circle at the door."
Chen Xiao stood at the entrance of the cave and could feel a cool breeze blowing out of the cave.
He leaned his head and looked inside.
Because this mine does not have to leave space for machines to enter and exit like modern mines, it has a small mouth and a large belly. It gets bigger as you go inside and is bottomless.
Liu Shaoguang introduced the situation inside and said, "This mine has more than one entrance. Some of the other entrances have collapsed over time, and some have been filled in. The terrain inside is particularly complex, and because the chaotic spiritual energy will interfere with spiritual consciousness, the initial rescue took a long time. After it was abandoned, some people wanted to go deep into the mine regardless of the danger, but most of them ended up getting lost and asking for help. Over time, no one came here anymore."
Taixuan asked him, "Do you know where the mining accident happened four hundred years ago?"
Liu Shaoguang nodded: "At a depth of thirty feet, the depth is seventy feet."
Tai Xuan frowned and said, "Don't be too far away when we travel later."
Several people responded in unison.
Taixuan and Taisheng walked in the front, followed by the elders, priests and managers. According to their cultivation level and status, Liu Shaoguang and Tao Yi should have been walking in the third row.
However, these two senior brothers let Xi Yunting and Chen Xiao walk in the third row. It was not because they were worried that they would not be able to rescue them in time if something happened, but because they were afraid that the elders in front would not be protected by Junior Brother Xi's aura.
Chen Xiao actually wanted him and Xi Yunting to take the lead, but unfortunately the sect leader who didn't know the truth would not agree. And even if he knew the truth, he would not agree to let the younger generation take risks.
Chen Xiao followed the people in front of him obediently. Less than a hundred meters into the mine, he felt his vision becoming increasingly darker and darker. His eyes had no time to adapt to the changes in light in front of them.
Xi Yunting held his hand silently. The ground was not flat, what if Xiaodi fell?
Behind the two of them, Liu Shaoguang and Senior Brother Tao, who was holding a sword, felt a strange and unhappy feeling lingering in their hearts, but they couldn't figure out why.
