I'm seventy years old this year, and you want me to have many children and much happiness?

Huangsha City, five underground levels, Black Rock Cave City.

Black Rock Cave City can also be understood as a deeper level of Black Stone Cave City.

The entire Blackrock region also belongs to the Poison Sand Gang.

Blackrock Cave City is on the fourth level, and it belongs to the elite gangs and is also a place with some important locations.

Black Rock Cave City was basically the territory of the Poison Sand Gang leader.

The special spiritual energy here is even more concentrated, and the surrounding stone walls are extremely stable.

It can be said to be a very safe place.

The leader of the Poison Sand Gang is named Jiang Tiehu.

Years ago, it was said that he was a镖师 (bodyguard/escort) who was escorting goods in a certain place. Later, he coveted the beauty of a woman he needed to escort, raped her on the way, and then killed the entire镖局 (escort agency) and the woman's whole family.

Such behavior directly led to him being hunted down by the entire escort industry. In the end, he had no choice but to flee to Huangsha City, where he used his superb martial arts skills to gradually become the leader of the Poison Sand Gang.

Inside Black Rock Cave City.

Jiang Tiehu, the leader of the Poison Sand Gang, sat on a chair carved from jade, with spiritual energy continuously flowing into his body.

"The underground world of this Yellow Sand City is different from the outside world."

"The deeper you go, the more abundant the spiritual energy becomes."

"Although we are both within the fifth level, the cave city occupied by the Red Sand Gang is deeper than my place, so I am not convinced."

"And the one that lives at the very bottom."

"That guy absorbed all the earth's spiritual energy all by himself?!"

"I've already found out; that person hasn't broken through to the fifth rank, and is actually still a long way from it!"

Jiang Tiehu became more and more excited as he spoke.

His expression was quite excited.

A deep desire was also revealed in his eyes.

After crushing the Red Sand Gang and seizing their territory, they took down the city lord's mansion of Yellow Sand City in one fell swoop!

In this way, he could easily become the king of the entire Yellow Sand City.

"You're from the Kingdom of Night Cool, aren't you?"

"Do you know what this is...?"

As he spoke, Jiang Tiehu clapped his hands. At this moment, a burly young man next to Jiang Tiehu walked forward carrying a plate containing a dark red mineral.

"This is... a Spirit Blast Stone!?"

When Admiral Hornet saw the red ore, a look of horror immediately appeared on his face.

This is an incredibly precious Spirit Explosion Stone!

Don't underestimate these two ores; their value is hundreds of times greater than that of the spirit stone!

The effect of the Spirit Explosion Stone is that it can be infused with spiritual energy and then detonated.

Even a spirit explosion stone the size of a fingernail, if infused with spiritual energy and detonated, can blast a second-grade martial artist to smithereens within a radius of three zhang!

The protective true energy is nothing but a piece of waste paper in the face of the power of this spirit explosion stone.

Furthermore, these Spirit Explosion Stones have another characteristic: their power increases when stacked.

There is a traditional skill in the Kingdom of Night Cool.

They could sew spirit explosive stones into their clothes, then wear those clothes to approach powerful cultivators and detonate the spirit explosive stones to assassinate them.

Often, at very important banquets, or gatherings and ceremonies of the powerful and wealthy, once the explosion is ignited, it can achieve very significant results.

This is also one of the methods that Ye Liang Kingdom likes to use.

Because Spirit Blast Stones are different from other things, they are basically difficult to detect.

When not actively detonated, the Spirit Blast Stone is in a very stable state.

Therefore, it is also an excellent tool for assassination.

The Kingdom of Yeliang used this method to eliminate many of its rivals back then.

Even the experts of the Xuanwu Dynasty suffered considerable losses in this regard.

The problem is that Spirit Blast Stones are extremely difficult to find.

Furthermore, the excavation of spirit explosive stones is extremely difficult, requiring manual excavation. If even a tiny bit of spiritual energy is released, it will explode. While it may not destroy the entire mine, even a small portion of the explosion would be enough to blast you into dust.

The difficulty of mining, coupled with the scarcity of resources.

Therefore, the value of an equal amount of Spirit Explosion Stone is about a hundred times that of an equal amount of Spirit Stone.

To kill a fourth-grade martial artist, one would need at least ten thousand spirit stones worth of spirit explosive stones.

But the key point is that even if you have money, you might not be able to buy this thing.

Jiang Tiehu actually took out a Spirit Explosion Stone.

This inevitably filled the two generals of the Night Liang Kingdom with immense excitement.

Could it be... could it be that Jiang Tiehu possesses such a spirit explosion stone resource?!

If that's the case, then the invasion plan of the Night Liang Kingdom can be perfectly realized, and may even go further!

Furthermore, only the Night Cool Kingdom has mastered this forging method for Spirit Explosion Stones, knowing how to forge them precisely and add certain techniques to unleash their full power.

After all, the Kingdom of Yeliang is at the forefront of research on spirit explosion stones.

"I only have a portion, but if you can help me take over this Yellow Sand City, then these spirit explosion stone resources will not be a problem!"

"Consider these two as a small gift to you both. I hope we can have a pleasant collaboration."

Jiang Tiehu said with a smile.

Jiang Tiehu's ability to rise from a mere bodyguard to where he is today speaks volumes about his strength and growth; he is definitely not as simple as he appears on the surface.

Admiral Wasp and Admiral Black Hawk both accepted the items with great excitement.

He held it in his hand and played with it, while also holding it to his nose and taking a deep sniff.

One can clearly feel the terrifying energy within this Spirit Explosion Stone.

"It really is a Spirit Blast Stone, and the quality is quite good!"

Their eyes were filled with excitement.

"Rest assured, Chief Jiang, we will do our utmost!"

"I wonder what the leader wants us to do next?"

When it came to serious matters, Jiang Tiehu's eyes lit up slightly.

That's the right pace. You're here to get things done. What's the point of having you here if you're not going to do anything?

He likes people who get straight to the point.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony with you two. You are people sent by the Prince of Xiping, and I trust you completely."

"The old leader of the Red Sand Gang voluntarily stepped down some time ago. I suspect he was showing signs of a breakthrough, which is why he let his daughter take over. So we must interrupt his breakthrough!"

"You two go and help me capture his daughter, who is also the current leader of the Red Sand Gang."

"Don't worry, her cultivation is only at the half-step fourth rank, she is definitely no match for the two of you."

Jiang Tiehu said with a sinister expression.

It seems he has already imagined the scene of taking down the Red Sand Gang.

If any of the Poison Sand Gang members in Yellow Sand City make any moves, the other side will definitely know.

Therefore, it must be done by an outsider, so that there are no traces of it being done.

He could also find an opportunity to frame the Flying Sand Gang for capturing Chi Ling Sha.

Once the Red Sand Gang and the Flying Sand Gang are locked in a fierce battle, I will be able to profit from it. The principle of "when the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits" is simple to understand, but it is very difficult to put into practice.

"Hehe, she's just a little girl. This is something we're good at!"

The two generals exchanged a glance.

If someone else were to do it, they might think that it would be too shameful and beneath me, a dignified fourth-rank expert, to kidnap a little girl.

However, for the people of Yeliang Kingdom, the means to achieve their goals are what matter.

Having great strength is for the purpose of getting things done.

Naturally, I felt no shame whatsoever.

Only the people of Ye Liang Kingdom have such thick skin.

"Haha, good! Remember, this matter must never be known to anyone else."

"And we must leave one alive; I will use him very well!"

"Song Ming, you and the two generals will coordinate the intelligence regarding Chi Ling Sha."

Jiang Tiehu said.

The one called Song Ming was the young man next to him, who was Jiang Tiehu's disciple at the time.

Song Ming usually handles many things.

As for the deputy gang leader outside named Tang An, he was actually just a useless guy who handled miscellaneous tasks and had some ruthless methods. His strength was average, but he was ruthless and insidious.

They are able to effectively manage and restrain some of their external subordinates.

Therefore, Tang An was entrusted with handling all matters on the ground.

"Please come with me, I will provide you with information about that person."

Song Ming took the two of them downstairs to discuss matters.

Jiang Tiehu himself also entered a state of cultivation.

In this city of yellow sand, whoever can break through to the fifth rank of cultivation first will become the true king!

Unfortunately, breaking through to the fifth rank is extremely difficult.

Even though Jiang Tiehu cultivates a special technique, it would still take a long time to even reach the threshold of the fifth rank.

"The actions here are not enough. We also need to seize control of the Flying Sand Arena. We must take over more arenas and gain greater dominance."

The Flying Sand Arena is essentially a contest between the three major gangs, and the number of wins and losses determines whether they can divide up more territory.

What is now being brought out for struggle and competition is a newly discovered cave city.

A new cave town often represents a wealth of new resources.

Therefore, this flying sand arena is also very important.

"Someone go and inform Tang An to keep a close watch on the Flying Sand Arena."

"And all the participants can now receive their third dose of medication."

Jiang Tiehu shouted towards the door.

Then a Dharma protector came.

"Yes, Boss!"

The protector immediately went to retrieve the potion, and then headed towards the fourth underground level, the Black Stone Cave City.

At this moment, Lu Xuan was still wandering around in the fourth underground level.

After spending a considerable amount of money, they finally managed to find out the direction of Blackrock Cave City.

"This underground city doesn't feel so dark and gloomy, and there's air circulation, so it's not stuffy. Plus, there seems to be a special earth-attribute spiritual energy being generated underground, making it a really good place for cultivation and seclusion."

While wandering around this underground city, Lu Xuan encountered several people who wanted to rob him.

Of course, Lu Xuan resolved all of these dangers without incident.

"Hmm? Something's not right. This doesn't look like Blackrock Cave City..."

When Lu Xuan arrived in the direction given by the person he had inquired about, he discovered something was wrong; it turned out to be a dead end.

Lu Xuan immediately sighed, realizing he had been tricked again; the people here were truly treacherous.

"It was him, constantly asking about the location of our Black Stone Cave City."

"Old man, tell me honestly now, who sent you, or you'll suffer less later!"

Lu Xuan turned around and saw six figures surrounding him.

One of them was the same person who had just taken his money and given him directions.
