The heavens start from Quanzhen swordsmanship

Xu Zhiqing landed at a place. He looked at the situation in front of him, and then looked at the token in his hand.

He suspected that he had come to the wrong place.

There is a small door in front and there are many people queuing in front of it.

He took a quick glance and found that there were many people in the Hongmeng realm in the team.

His heart skipped a beat.

Good guy.

I guess all these people are here to mine.

While Xu Zhiqing was still watching, a voice sounded behind him.

"Daoyou, please move forward a bit."

"If you don't want to queue, how about letting me do it?"

Xu Zhiqing turned his head and looked at the person who was speaking behind him.

The person who spoke was an old man with white hair and wrinkles all over his face.

However, Xu Zhiqing noticed that the old man's aura was actually at the Hongmeng realm.

I couldn't help but wonder how many masters of the Hongmeng realm there are in Baidi City?
He heard from Patriarch Yang Mei and others that there were many places similar to Baidi City in the Hun Dun Universe.

So what about the emperor?
Xu Zhiqing gave up thinking about these things for the time being.

"I'll just go ahead."

Xu Zhiqing smiled and bowed to the old man.

The old man looked Xu Zhiqing up and down, and suddenly said with a smile: "Is this your first time in Baidi City, fellow Taoist?"

Xu Zhiqing was surprised.

"Brother Dao, how did you know that this was my first time in Baidi City?"

The old man smiled and said, "I have been in Baidi City for tens of thousands of years. I can say that I have basically communicated with anyone in the Hongmeng Realm."

"On the contrary, it's Brother Dao, I have never seen him before."

Xu Zhiqing asked suspiciously, "How can you be so sure that it came from outside?"

"breath."

The old man reminded: "As long as you stay in Baidi City for a long time, you will have the aura of Baidi City."

"This is one of the laws of Baidi City. It can be used to identify whether the visitor is from Baidi City or not."

The old man said this and shook his head and smiled.

"In my opinion, identifying others is not the greatest function of Baidi City..."

The old man stopped talking here.

Instead, it changed the subject.

"I am Huang Yuanzi, may I know your name?"

"Xu Zhiqing."

"Friend Xu, which mine are you going to?"

When Xu Zhiqing heard the old man's words, he knew that the old man wanted to know if he knew about the mines in this place.

Xu Zhiqing did not hide it and said directly: "To be honest, this is my first time here, and it is also my first time to learn mining. I don't know how many mines there are in Baidi City."

Huang Yuanzi looked around and took out a sign.

"Since you are here for the first time, I will give this to you to take a look at."

Xu Zhiqing took it without understanding why.

This is a black token that contains some knowledge.

He just took a glance and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

This contains information about the Baidi City mines.

The mining system of Baidi City can be regarded as the most sophisticated resource plundering system in the chaotic universe, and its operation mode is consistent with the bandit nature of the city.

The mine does not exist in a fixed place, but through Baidi's unique space anchoring technology, seven mineral veins with different characteristics are dynamically connected to the city.

The core is undoubtedly the "Tianxing Mine" suspended in the chaotic vortex. The surface of this red cone-shaped mountain is covered with barbs, and miners need to use their own laws as a guide to climb.

Its interior is densely covered with blood vessel-like channels, and corrosive liquid will seep out when mined. Only the protective aura of a Hongmeng realm cultivator can resist it.

The "Blood Marrow Crystal" produced here contains violent killing laws and is the exclusive training resource for the White Emperor's Guards.

The "Xuanming Mine" located in the extremely cold abyss is composed entirely of dark blue ice crystals, and the veins move slowly in the low temperature like a living thing.

Miners must continuously burn Chaos Fire to maintain their body temperature, otherwise they will be frozen into ice sculptures.

The "Cold Marrow Jade" that is abundant here can greatly improve the purity of the water law, but every time a hundred kilograms are mined, an ice explosion will occur, making it the most dangerous mine.

The most special one is the "Soul-Devouring Mine". The entire mine is actually the fossil remains of some kind of prehistoric giant beast.

The mine formed between the ribs can breathe autonomously, and the poisonous mist it spews out can dissolve ordinary storage magic weapons.

The miners must refine the collected "Soul Sand" into containers on the spot and seal them. The mortality rate here is as high as 30%, but it is the production base of core materials for refining time-type magic weapons.

The largest "earth vein mine" is covered with vertical shafts like a honeycomb, and the walls of the shafts are inlaid with glowing crystals of laws.

Assembly line operations are adopted here, with the lower-level True Immortals responsible for preliminary screening, while the Hongmeng monks go deep into the earth's core to collect the "Chaos Mother Stone".

The entire mine was transformed into a giant furnace, where mining and refining were carried out simultaneously, producing 100,000 standard units of Chaos Stone every day.

Baidi City also controls two mobile mines - the "wandering mines" wrapped in space folds will randomly appear in various places in the chaotic universe, specializing in plundering new law veins.

The "Shadow Abyss Mine" lurks in the interlayer of the void and can silently devour the reserve mines of other forces.

This kind of bandit-like mining model has enabled Baidi City to maintain an astonishing reserve of resources.

All mines are monitored by the "Sky Mirror" system, with 360 bronze mirrors reflecting each mine in real time.

The one-tenth share received by the miners will be directly branded with a forbidden mark, and those who keep it privately will have their souls burned through by the mirror light.

Under this strict system, the mines in Baidi City have always maintained a nearly 100% resource recovery rate, becoming the iron blood vessels supporting the operation of this bandit city.

The above clearly explains the mining knowledge possessed by Baidi City.

After he finished reading, he raised his eyes and looked at the old man.

"Fellow Daoist, this is the knowledge that is widely spread in Baidi City..."

Huang Yuanzi knew what Xu Zhiqing wanted to say, so he said this in advance.

The other party can't be here to seize Baidi City.

As for the plundering of Baidi City mentioned in it...any place like Baidi City is full of plundering.

After reading the above knowledge, Xu Zhiqing expressed his gratitude solemnly.

I didn’t expect that some ores could cause the death of people in the Hongmeng realm.

"If I only want to mine Chaos Spirit Stones like this, which mine should I go to?"

Xu Zhiqing took out the Chaos Spirit Stone.

This was given to him by Patriarch Yang Mei.

Huang Yuanzi caught a glimpse of the Chaos Spirit Stone in Xu Zhiqing's hand, and his cloudy eyes suddenly lit up.

His skinny fingers gently stroked the mineral bag hanging around his waist, and a slight sound of crystals colliding could be heard from the bag.

"What a coincidence! I am on my way to the Earth Mine, which is a mine that produces this kind of standard Chaos Stone."

As he spoke, he untied the ore bag and poured out a few angular gray-white crystals. The chaotic patterns flowing on the surface were exactly the same as the spirit stone in Xu Zhiqing's hand.

Xu Zhiqing didn't expect that Huang Yuanzi also wanted to dig Chaos Spirit Stones.

"Friend Huang, how about we go together?"

Huang Yuanzi nodded.

"This ore is a circulating ore. It is not mined in the mines listed in the token, but in a place with supervisors!"

Xu Zhiqing naturally had no idea about this.

He invited Huang Yuanzi and queued up with Huang Yuanzi to enter the door.

Two people were supervising there, leaving behind traces of their aura, and then they came to a light gate.

"After passing through Zhang Yishan's light gate, you will reach the ground vein mine!" "But there are supervisors there, and there is usually nothing to do, but there is no necessary communication between them."

Xu Zhiqing heard Huang Yuanzi mention the supervisor.

"The mine still needs supervisors?"

Huang Yuanzi nodded.

"In addition to preventing others from apologizing, it is also to prevent some accidents. For example, some chaos beasts in the Chaos Universe will come to the mine to cause trouble."

Xu Zhiqing nodded slightly.

Two people walked through the light gate and appeared in a mine.

Xu Zhiqing looked towards the mine, which was filled with densely packed holes.

This mine is located in the chaotic universe and rotates on its own.

Next to him, there was an overseer wearing a yellow robe.

Xu Zhiqing could see that there were quite a few people mining in the mine.

Some people come in from outside, and some people go out from inside.

"Let's go!"

"Let's go in."

After Huang Yuanzi came in, he did not go to see the so-called supervisor, but took Xu Zhiqing to choose a hole.

"I wonder if there are many Chaos Spiritual Stones in there."

Huang Yuanzi muttered to himself as he led Xu Zhiqing inside, and he did not forget to introduce the underground mine to Xu Zhiqing.

"The vertical shafts of the earth vein mine are as dense as a honeycomb. The purity of the Chaos Matrix increases as you go down."

Huang Yuanzi spoke in a low voice, with sweat oozing out from between his wrinkles. He didn't look like a strong man at the Hongmeng realm at all.

He continued, "If the well below 300 feet erupts with underground fire, at least three Hongmeng cultivators will be needed to form a formation to resist it."

"After the underground fire erupts, there will be a large amount of Chaos Spirit Stones. If you are willing to join forces, we can split the ore 50-50."

As he spoke, the cold light of the supervisor's bronze mirror in the distance happened to sweep over the feet of the two men, reflecting the dark red bloodstains on the inner layer of the ore bag.

Xu Zhiqing thought about it and agreed immediately.

Because he is not familiar with anything here, if he agrees, he will be able to get a little more familiar with the situation.

When Huang Yuanzi saw Xu Zhiqing agreed, a smile appeared on his face.

"Since Fellow Daoist Xu is willing, let's go together!"

Xu Zhiqing was just about to say that they were coming over when he saw Huang Yuanzi walking in front and waving his hand.

A space vortex appeared in front of him.

"This is?"

"Just follow me."

After Huang Yuanzi finished speaking, he walked into the space vortex.

Xu Zhiqing did not hesitate. When he followed Huang Yuanzi into the space vortex, the smell of sulfur that hit him in the face choked his throat and made it tight.

After he walked out of the space vortex, what came into his sight was a circular mine with a diameter of a thousand feet. The densely packed wellheads on the rock wall looked like hollowed-out ant holes.

Tens of thousands of miners were hanging on spider-web-like iron chains, and the sound of chiseling condensed into materialized sound waves in the chaotic atmosphere.

Xu Zhiqing was surprised. Could it be that he hadn't come in just now?

Or does it only exist on the periphery?
“Follow me!”

Huang Yuanzi took out a bronze lamp, the flame of which remained motionless in the turbulent airflow, illuminating the deep No. 72 wellhead below.

“That’s our goal.”

As he said this, he took Xu Zhiqing over.

Xu Zhiqing observed the well.

The luminous crystals inlaid in the well wall reflected an eerie blue light.

He thought about it for a moment, and the moment he reached out and touched the rock wall with his fingertips, he felt a tingling sensation on his skin.

"These crystals are continuously releasing corrosive laws."

"So be careful."

Huang Yuanzi threw out three black iron chains to wrap around the waists of the two men: "Every time you descend a hundred feet, you need to inject 30% of your magic power to reinforce the chains, otherwise..."

Before he could finish his words, a scream suddenly came from above. The chains of a True Immortal broke, and his figure was instantly crushed by the crystal tentacles extending from the well wall.

After seeing this, Xu Zhiqing raised his eyebrows.

These crystals actually have a breath of life?
He thought about it but didn't say anything. Instead, he let Huang Yuanzi make the decision.

When we drilled down to a depth of two hundred feet, the rock began to ooze out a sticky black liquid.

Huang Yuanzi suddenly made a hand gesture, and the flame of the lamp suddenly expanded into a fire curtain that blocked the oncoming droplets. The burning liquid let out a sharp scream like a baby crying.

"The ghost of the earth vein mine!"

"Take action together!"

Huang Yuanzi shouted loudly, and Xu Zhiqing immediately used the sundial to summon the long flow of time and space. The ripples in the river shook the liquid into mist.

Huang Yuanzi took advantage of this gap and used an iron pickaxe to fiercely chisel at the cracks in the rock. Three chaos mother stones as big as fists burst out from the flying rubble. The core of one of them actually condensed the dragon-shaped law.

"Although we are here to find the Chaos Spirit Stone, we cannot let go of other Spirit Stones if we come across them."

The old man threw out a special leather bag to catch the ore, but Xu Zhiqing noticed something strange. The dragon-patterned mother stone was vibrating violently in the leather bag.

Sure enough, the next second the rock layer exploded, and the wall of the well opened its densely packed red pupils.

Huang Yuanzi tore open the treasured escape talisman: "It's the mine guardian beast!"

The two men soared into the sky while being pursued by countless crystal tentacles, and the shaft behind them twisted and closed like a living thing.

Xu Zhiqing and Huang Yuanzi fell down at the exit in a panic.

Before Xu Zhiqing could ask any questions, he saw the supervisor coming over and using the mirror light to burn their miserable appearance into the recording crystal.

Then, the next moment the overseer was gone.

Xu Zhiqing looked at Huang Yuanzi, who had just dug.

I wonder if there is any gain?

"Harvest seventeen standard stones, as agreed..."

Huang Yuanzi was panting as he sorted the ore. Suddenly, he stuffed the dragon-patterned mother stone to Xu Zhiqing and said, "This thing will attract the Inspector General. My body can't stand the interrogation."

"Hide this thing well. I won't tell anyone. Don't worry."

"Let me rest for a while, then we'll continue."

After a while, the two men chose a new wellhead and went down to explore.

"There should be a lot of Chaos Spiritual Stones in this well."

Huang Yuanzi spoke out the words about the Chaos Spirit Stone.

"Perhaps, we will encounter those beings guarding a group of Chaos Stones..."

After hearing this, Xu Zhiqing didn't say much.

At least the current harvest is better than if he were mining alone.

The two men were busy digging, but they couldn't find the place where fire was spewing, so they couldn't get a high harvest.

However, both of them are down-to-earth people and don't ask for too much.

Dig as much as you can, instead of using previous methods.

Soon, more than half a year passed.

The bags in both of their hands were full.

Xu Zhiqing even has a thousand of them.

But when he thought about the time and energy he had put into these spirit stones...

He wondered if the future Wanjie Palace would be the same. (End of this chapter)
