Chapter 50 Sword Light Under the Black Fog

The women and children guarding in front of the town were still kowtowing and kneeling, begging the immortal master for mercy.

But even though they all had their heads broken, none of the immortal cultivators passing by cared.

At this time, the bandit Ji walked towards them with a sword in his hand, picked up two silver coins from the ground and put them in his arms.

Seeing this scene, the women and children with dull eyes immediately opened their eyes wide, then knelt down and kowtowed, causing the stone bricks to tremble, but they were shaking all over and dared not speak.

They didn't know whether the immortal in front of them wanted to spend the money or really use the money to help them save people, but they didn't dare to ask and could only kowtow.

"Stop knocking, I'm here to make money."

"I've never seen anyone pay someone to kowtow..."

"But you are really lucky to have met a poor guy like me."

Kneeling in the front was an old woman, whose eyes were dazed when she heard his words.

Because the immortal master in front of him had only taken two of the silver coins, and most of the rest were still there.

She was a little frightened and couldn't help pushing the silver forward, hoping that he would take it all as long as he could rescue her son.

Other women and children did the same as him, constantly pushing the silver on the ground over to them and continuing to kowtow.

"No need, what I just took is enough."

"Don't immortals say that the lives of mortals are cheap? Then there's no need to spend so much silver..."

Ji You muttered to himself and walked forward along the thick evil aura, and found that the barren wilderness was full of evil species wandering around.

Especially in the direction of the foothills, it is full and stretches all the way to the wild road leading into the mountain.

These evil species were supposed to be trapped in the mountains, unable to leave due to distance restrictions, but have slowly begun to move outwards.

On the other side of the wild road, there is a high slope leading to another direction, which is Hongshan Mine.

Perhaps they sensed the breath of living people, and the evil species roaming over there became more densely populated.

Ji You slowly walked to the edge of the mountain and saw other disciples of the Immortal Sect gathered there, also killing the evil species.

However, they only killed those heading into the mountains, because they were not interested in the mines. They came here because the evil spirits restricted the circulation of their spiritual energy, making it inconvenient to fly in the air, so they were clearing obstacles for entering the mountains tomorrow.

"There are too many. It's impossible to kill them all."

"But there is still some possibility of opening a bloody path..."

"But if we just open a bloody path, it's still unknown whether we can rescue the people."

Ji You stepped through the black fog and flew out with his sword. He pierced the hearts of the two evil creatures while strolling leisurely.

Seeing this scene, all the disciples of the Immortal Sect who were in Qingdao were stunned.

Afterwards, they saw a whistling sword wave flashing in the black fog, and it had already walked ten feet in the wilderness surrounded by evil spirits.

"Who... is that person?"

"It's the attire of the Heavenly Academy."

"How can someone from the Heavenly Academy have such a strong sword intent?"

Ji You did not hear the discussions behind him, but kept swinging his sword.

After a few rustling sounds, the evil creatures wandering around the periphery fell to the ground one after another. He stepped over the corpses that were as black as charcoal and continued to walk towards Hongshan Mine.

Going deeper, the evil species here began to become denser. Ji You did not dare to be careless and waved his hand to summon two more swords.

Just like the day at Mount Wanzhuo, Ji You used sword waves to clear the way, but never drew back the sword. Each time, he would avoid unnecessary sword moves between attacks.

He then moved in an arc, slashing down all the evil species on both sides.

From the perspective of the immortal sect disciples who were on the edge, they saw a hedgehog covered with swords, constantly stabbing forward, which was astonishing.

“It feels like a pig demon chopping down a tree.”

"But it's a pity... this doesn't help improve your realm."

"If I can do ninety-nine swords, maybe I can become the headmaster tomorrow..."

After several attempts, Ji You gradually began to understand the consumption and replenishment rates of spiritual energy under this black fog.

Then, spiritual energy began to surge under his feet, and rushed out like a flash of lightning. In the originally silent black fog, sword waves suddenly surged, like a burst of rosy clouds.

It is indeed a very scary thing that evil spirit can suppress the spiritual essence of cultivators.

But what's more terrifying is that he has no spiritual essence...

He even blew up the spiritual spring.

After running a hundred meters with the sword, Ji You pierced the last evil species with the sword, and landed on a short tree while panting, looking at the mine in the distance.

Hongshan Mine has a high wall that was built previously. The evil species gathered outside the wall and could not enter.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

But there was a group of shacks under the high wall, but now they have been demolished into pieces.

Looking closely, there were some body parts scattered on the ground in front of the shed, mixed with bright red.

On the night of New Year's Day, there should have been many miners celebrating in the shed, hoping that the days ahead would be better, but in the end they died there.

"There are too many evil species. If they are released, all the people in Zhongzhou will die."

"However, these evil species seem to be different from those in Wanzhuo Mountain. There is no sign of them being controlled by humans."

"The Heavenly Academy said they came here to investigate the evil species, but they insisted on entering the mountain. I don't know why other sects followed them. This means there must be other problems in the mountain..."

"After you finish this job, find a way to leave. It's not advisable to stay here for long."

Ji You muttered to himself for a long while, and suddenly he saw another team of immortal cultivators charging into the group of evil creatures, and it seemed that there were quite a few of them.

They obviously also came in from the outside, but at this point they could no longer advance an inch.

What’s even more interesting is that there is a young man mixed in among these cultivators, who looks to be about the same age as him. He is holding his head and dodging continuously, seemingly in a panic.

Those immortal cultivators protected him among them, apparently wanting to retreat the same way they came.

But unfortunately, those evil species were not ones that would stand still. The path they had fought their way out of had already been blocked by the evil species rushing over.

As a result, amidst the roars and collisions, the entire team was dispersed, and two people were even pressed to the ground and bitten by the evil creatures.

The young man was in a panic, his face pale, and was about to be pounced on by the evil creature behind him, his life hanging by a thread.

Seeing this scene, Ji You took out a bow and arrow from the green jade gourd, tightened the bowstring, and shot away.

With a whoosh, the evil creature was shot through the head, and the arrow flew out, hitting the young man's neck.

Seeing that he was rescued, the young man was in shock for a long time. He immediately came to his senses and looked at him. After a moment of hesitation, he bowed.

That's quite polite, otherwise I would definitely charge you a hundred taels of silver to save my life.

Ji You muttered something, but within a moment, his expression suddenly changed.

He had cleared this place before, and in front of him was an open space without any evil seeds. At this time, he saw the clever young man running towards him, attracting a bunch of evil seeds behind him.

"Damn it, he wants to protect me in front of him?"
