In Zhongzhou, the underground fire of Shenmu Sect

was still erupting. Countless magmas were spewing out from the gap and flowing to other places. In the distance, Shenmu Sect built a formation to block the magma turbulence, but this formation consumed too much energy and was only an emergency measure. Now they had to rush to harvest the spiritual medicines in the spiritual medicine garden, as well as the hundreds of thousands of acres of spiritual valleys and other low-level resources.

In the sky, He Laozu and others looked at the eruption of the underground fire with a very solemn expression. The eruption of the underground fire actually caused few casualties among the disciples of Shenmu Sect. Except for some unlucky ones, most of the immortal cultivators could avoid it or directly resist it, but the economic losses were great.

In order to facilitate work, they set up many spiritual medicine gardens near the underground fire. Although the level was not high, most of them were 20th-level spiritual medicines, but the quantity was large and almost all of them were destroyed.

"Ancestor He, it's not a good idea to block it like this. The formation consumes too much energy. I have already called up all the remaining spiritual energy of the sect's spiritual veins, but it's still not enough. The daily consumption of spiritual stones is more than 200,000. If we continue, we will lose a lot."

A manager came to report that such a large-scale formation consumes a lot of energy. They can't afford it. It costs hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones a day.

"How is the retreat of the disciples?"

"Basically retreated to a safe place. We are rushing to harvest the spiritual grains and spiritual medicines that can be harvested. We can harvest them in two days at most."

"Then prepare to withdraw the formation."

"Yes, Ancestor He."

"Have you killed the fire-melting beasts in the underground fire?"

"The uncle has already led the team down. The battle situation is not known yet."

"Damn it."

Ancestor He was furious. He already knew the whole story. It was not a big deal. It was just a group of fire-melting beasts that appeared, causing the formation to collapse and causing the underground fire to erupt.

So Shenmu Sect has sent masters to enter the underground fire to kill the fire-melting beasts. Of course, this is also a way to vent anger. Killing the fire-melting beasts can't stop the eruption of the underground fire.

"Brother He"

"Brother Yu"

After a while, another Hedao of Shenmu Sect appeared.

"Brother, I just came out of retreat, what's going on?"

"Brother, it's not a big deal, it's just the eruption of underground fire. After the disciples kill the fire-melting beast, we will seal the underground fire and rebuild the Dantang in a few years."

"Brother He, I'm not talking about this matter, I'm talking about the curse,"

said the Hedao surnamed Yu. The underground fire is of course a small matter, but the curse is worrying, because one of the sentences is a Hedao, and there are only two Hedaos in Shenmu Sect.

"Brother, you don't believe this too, do you?"

"Of course I don't believe it, but it's spread outside. If there is no explanation, it's inevitable that disciples will think too much."

"Brother is right, but this was done by Yu Hailong, you have to ask Yu Hailong,"

said Patriarch He. Since you want to mention it, then mention it. Yu Hailong is a child of your Yu family, you can do it.

"I also know that it was Yu Hailong who did it. I have already punished him to reflect on his mistakes behind closed doors. But Yu Hailong said that apart from the curse that Xia Qingshan cast before his death, there was nothing unusual about this matter."

"I don't know what's going on. If Junior Brother Yu wants to investigate, then go ahead."

Patriarch He shook his head. He still didn't quite believe that a mere curse could have such power. It must be just a coincidence.

······· In

Zhongzhou, in a shop in Tianxian City

, a dozen low-level cultivators are working. They are decorating the shop. These workers chat while working, talking about the big and small things in Tianxian City, as if they are the masters of this world. Now they look down on the ancestor of a sect, and now they say that a sect is stupid.

"Ahem"

As they were chatting, a cough was heard outside the door. Everyone looked back and saw a young man standing outside with a banner in his hand.

"Who are you? Who are you looking for?"

"I should be the one asking you this. If I remember correctly, I rented this shop and paid the rent for 20 years at once. Why is my shop in this state? What are you doing?"

"Uncle, who is this? Isn't the owner a female cultivator?"

"I don't know either. Let me ask."

A group of immortal cultivator workers looked at each other. They had seen the owner before. How could a female cultivator who was very beautiful become a man?

The leading worker did not dare to be careless or continue working. He quickly called the owner. The owner came to the shop and saw the young man. He immediately screamed "Ah..."

"Fairy, what's wrong with you?"

The young man was also startled and took two steps back. He was not a hooligan. Don't try to scam him.

"Xia Qingshan, you are Xia Qingshan"

"Yes, I am Xia Qingshan, what's wrong?"

"You, you, aren't you dead?"

the female cultivator screamed. Damn it, what a ghost, didn't Xia Qingshan die outside the city half a year ago.

"I am Xia Qingshan, but the fairy must have made a mistake, I am alive and well, how could I die?"

Xia Qingshan touched his nose, this woman is crazy, how could she say he was dead.

The woman's screams have attracted many passers-by to watch, and more and more people recognized Xia Qingshan, all of them were terrified, pointing at Xia Qingshan.

Soon, the disciples of Danxia Sect stationed in Tianxian City were also alarmed, and a Shenhua manager came out in person and came to Xia Qingshan.

"Fellow Daoist Xia, it's really you"

"Senior Brother Gu, it's me"

Xia Qingshan also recognized this person, he had seen him many times in Tianxian City before.

"You, are you a human or a ghost?"

"What do you mean by human or ghost? Of course I am a human."

"No, aren't you dead? Why are you here?"

"Brother Gu, this joke is not funny. I just went out of the city, how could I be dead? Also, what happened to this shop? I have rented it for 20 years, and now the shop has been messed up like this. You are from the City Lord's Mansion, you have to make the decision for me."

Xia Qingshan said directly. He was also a little dizzy. What happened to these people? They all said that he was dead. Then what is he now, a ghost?

Danxia Zong Huashen didn't care about the store. His consciousness suddenly enveloped Xia Qingshan, wanting to find out, but the feedback from his consciousness told him that Xia Qingshan was indeed a living person.

"Brother Gu, what do you mean? What's going on?"

"Xia Qingshan, come with me to the City Lord's Mansion."

"No, you have to give an explanation, my shop."

"Don't worry about the shop, come with me first, I don't mean any harm."

Danxia Sect's God of Transformation said, how dare he have any bad intentions, the matter of Shenmu Sect has been spread out, his words are followed by laws, it's fucking scary, isn't it.

"Okay, but you have to solve the matter of the shop for me."

"Don't worry about the shop."

"No, no, this is where I eat, I'm a serious fortune teller, not a charlatan."

"Okay, okay, I promise you, I will solve it for you, at worst I'll replace it with a new one with a better location, okay?"

Danxia Sect's God of Transformation coaxed and deceived, now he got people to the City Lord's Mansion first, he had to ask the ancestor of Danxia Sect to come, he couldn't handle this matter, it was fucking weird.
