The Holy Ancestor was tricked into working as a laborer in a celestial mine deep in the Great Wilderness.
Powerful monsters frequently appear, resulting in a very high mortality rate.
There were only about a hundred people mining the immortal mines, and thirty to forty people died every month.
Otherwise, if a cave-in occurs while mining for immortal ore, one could be crushed to death by the hard rocks.
Or it would be eaten and digested by monsters.
The most outrageous deaths involved two or three people who felt that mining for immortality was too tiring and boring, and wanted to find some food to satisfy their appetites.
Then they found red mushrooms and realized that these could only poison mortals, but not immortals like themselves.
They died on the spot after eating, and their bodies were thrown into the wilderness.
This fairy mine has the highest mortality rate; people who have been mining for too long are poisoned by the marsh gas hidden inside.
The Holy Ancestor inquired a lot from a senior, and that very day he wanted to escape.
But the senior told him not to even think about running away, or he would be severely beaten if caught.
This senior was also very kind-hearted, saying that as long as the grave was dug properly, nothing would happen.
Just like myself, I've been here for a long time, and apart from looking a bit older, I'm no different.
After being persuaded like that, the Holy Ancestor felt much better.
When he asked the senior's age, he couldn't sit still any longer.
The white-haired old man in front of me is only ten thousand years old, but he looks incredibly old.
The Holy Ancestor vaguely remembered what the old senior had said, which was utterly devastating to him.
"You don't look at me and I'm already three thousand years old. I'm telling you I'm only ten thousand years old. Other people here who are three thousand years old can no longer mine and have been thrown into the wilderness."
The Holy Ancestor had a death wish; mining immortal mines was definitely not something a human could do.
He has lived for tens of thousands of years, yet he still looks like a young man.
He then examined the "old senior's" body and found that there was not a single unharmed spot; all the meridians in his body had been infected by poison.
It shouldn't be long before the toxin spreads throughout this "veteran's" body, leaving him with virtually no chance of survival.
Just as the Holy Ancestor had predicted, the senior died on the spot the next day while digging for immortal ore.
The Holy Ancestor knew he couldn't stay any longer; staying would only lead to certain death.
He then tried to escape multiple times, but was caught and brought back each time.
Once, the Holy Ancestor was captured and nearly beaten to death.
From then on, the Holy Ancestor learned to be honest and knew that escape was simply impossible.
He knew that if he didn't run away, he might live a little longer, but if he did run away, he might die immediately.
Just when the Holy Ancestor was in despair, Hu Qiqing found him.
Then Hu Qiqing spent some money and easily redeemed him.
When the Holy Ancestor left the mining site, he cried so bitterly.
He discovered that mining for immortal ore was truly not something a human could do!
The Holy Primordial Ancestor was not the worst off; the Blood River Ancestor and the Six Desires Ancestor were even worse off.
The Six Desires Ancestor's cultivation method was the art of sexual intercourse, and in the past, she was the one who sexually intercourse with others.
She never expected to encounter such a ruthless person in the immortal realm, and was kidnapped by a flower-picking old demon with the cultivation of a Golden Immortal.
If Leng Hanmei hadn't had enough influence, she might have already been drained dry by this old demon.
The Blood River Ancestor fared even worse, as it was revealed that his true form was a primordial god-demon.
He was captured by a family who cut flesh from his body and ate it every day.
Moreover, this family was very particular, treating the Blood River Ancestor like a donkey, first cutting off pieces of flesh from his body.
They didn't eat this piece of meat; they just threw it away. They would wait for the Blood River Ancestor to grow new flesh before cutting it off and eating it.
Each meal, this family would cut off a large portion, causing the Blood River Ancestor excruciating pain.
After Leng Hanmei learned of the matter, she ordered the family to release the person.
This family, relying on the presence of five Golden Immortals, completely ignored Leng Hanmei.
In the end, Leng Hanmei had no choice but to send eight Golden Immortal experts to forcibly take away the Blood River Ancestor.
“You will be staying at the City Lord’s Mansion for the time being. Your room is next to your old acquaintances. Hearing their stories will make you feel much better.” Leng Hanmei led the Ice Ancestor into the City Lord’s Mansion.
"The three of them are here too?" The Primordial Ice Ancestor was surprised.
“Yes, especially the Blood River Ancestor, who only came out yesterday, just a little earlier than you. However, he was seriously injured. I gave him some pills, and he should recover in a short time.”
"It seems that the three of them aren't doing too well either."
The Primordial Ice Ancestor smiled wryly and said, "May I ask about your current cultivation level? I observed you for a long time using the Qi Observation Technique, but I couldn't discern your cultivation level."
"My cultivation level is at the early stage of Golden Immortal, and I just broke through not long ago," Leng Hanmei said with a smile.
“No wonder, I could feel the pressure from that family ancestor on you.” The Ice Ancestor’s face was full of bitterness.
When she was the powerful and influential progenitor of the demon race, Leng Hanmei had not yet been born.
Even though Leng Hanmei's cultivation level had reached the early stage of Mahayana, there was still a significant gap between the two.
For the Primordial Ice Ancestor, killing Leng Hanmei would be as easy as lifting a finger.
However, in less than a hundred years since they arrived in the Immortal Realm, their positions have been reversed.
Leng Hanmei's cultivation had reached the early stage of Golden Immortal, while he himself was only at the late stage of Tribulation Transcending.
"It's nothing. The main thing is that I was with Han Feng, while you weren't. Otherwise, your cultivation level wouldn't have remained at the late stage of the Tribulation Transcending Realm," Leng Hanmei comforted her with a smile.
"Han Feng? You mean your cultivation is so high because of Han Feng, that person whose realm improves so quickly, who even scared Luo Hou in the lower realm, making him not even have the courage to fight back?" The Ice Ancestor asked in surprise.
"Of course. You don't think I could raise my cultivation level so high on my own, and control so many immortal cities."
"You said you used Han Feng's connections to raise your cultivation to the Golden Immortal realm, but what realm has Han Feng's cultivation reached?"
"He is a Great Immortal."
"What kind of Great Luo Golden Immortal?"
The Primordial Ice was in shock.
During her long time in the Immortal Realm, the strongest person she encountered was a Golden Immortal.
In the eyes of the Primordial Ancestor of Extreme Ice, the Golden Immortal was like a god, capable of killing him at any moment, yet he had no power to resist.
The Great Luo Golden Immortal is two whole realms higher than the Golden Immortal. For a Great Luo Golden Immortal to kill a Golden Immortal is like crushing an ant.
The Primordial Ice felt that she and Han Feng were no longer on the same level; she had to look up to Han Feng.
"Don't overthink it. It's good to have a powerful backer. You all need to focus on your recovery. Immortal City is currently lacking manpower."
"I see."
The progenitor of polar ice expressed his gratitude.
She quickly accepted the reality and felt that she was already quite fortunate to be alive.
Although I felt quite jealous, it was really nice to have someone to rely on.
"It's good that you can figure it out."
Leng Hanmei nodded and said.
She brought the people from the spirit world back, not out of kindness.
