C703 Orange in Orange
"Hello! Uncle, I still have two steamed buns here. Can I give them to you? You haven't eaten for three days. You won't be able to hold on in the depths of the mining area! "
After eating the chicken drumstick, Wang Hou stared at the steamed buns in his hands for quite a while before handing them to Shen Qingfeng.
He was too optimistic. He always talked about 'making a name for himself' and didn't have any friends. He felt that he was more compatible with Shen Qingfeng, so he wanted to help him.
"Why don't you listen to others?! The spiritual energy here is too heterogeneous, mixed with... demonic energy..."
He saw that Shen Qingfeng was indifferent and wanted to teach him a lesson, but his pupils suddenly shrank, and the mantou in his hand almost fell to the ground.
He discovered that Shen Qingfeng was actually absorbing demonic Qi, even if it was a demonic cultivator. He only dared to use the Devil Jade to cultivate. He had never heard of anyone who dared to absorb the mixed devil energy into their body. There was only one consequence for doing so - degenerate into an emotionless monster!
Right at this moment, Shen Qingfeng woke up from his meditation. The moment he opened his eyes, Wang Hou was so scared that his entire body trembled.
"What's wrong? Is it almost time?"
"Yes... yes... We'll be leaving in less than two hours. Do you want to eat some steamed buns?"
"Thank you!"
Shen Qingfeng took the steamed buns and put them into his mouth. Just now, he found that the reverse version of the Divine Battle Art seemed to be very suitable for using demonic Qi to cultivate. Although the seal could not be removed temporarily, the demonic Qi was not restricted by the seal. It could be used as magic power!
"Being reduced to a miner might become my opportunity. This Devil Jade Ancient Mine is worth the protection of a peak Great Saint. There must be a big secret within it. Let me go in and explore it."
He felt that Wang Hou had been sizing him up with a strange gaze. He couldn't help but ask, "What are you looking at? Is there a flower on my face?"
"No... No, I think Uncle... is quite handsome..."
Who knew that Wang Hou's small face would turn red and he looked panicked. He had been in Ancient Mine for two years and had seen many laborers who were deeply rooted in their bones because of the demonic energy. In the end, he became a monster, but his two companions from the same village couldn't make it through. He had died a year ago. Now, he was the only one left.
"You child, why are you so orange when you speak? I'm very handsome, and I know this matter better than you. I don't know much about the Heaven Realm. Don't tell me that the wind of dragons is prevalent here? "
Shen Qingfeng was so shocked by Wang Hou's words that he almost choked. This damn child was truly frightening.
"You don't understand the Heaven Realm... What do you mean? Don't tell me you are not from this world?"
Wang Hou rubbed his head and a trace of confusion flashed across his eyes. He grew up in a mountain village and naturally did not understand what Shen Qingfeng meant by 'dragon'.
"Dong!"
"Hurry up and come out. Eat and drink enough. It's time to go!"
At this moment, the sound of a broken gong appeared once again. The mining operation was about to begin again. It was unknown how many lives would be lost this time.
The workers in the stone room stood up silently. Their eyes flashed with a wolf-like green light. Once they entered the depths of the mining area, the danger did not come from the environment. Sometimes, humans were much more terrifying than monster!
"Quick, we are going to go on our way. This time, you follow closely behind me. You will definitely be able to snatch a good position."
"Last time, I discovered a treasure. Unfortunately, there was a demon guarding it. With your help, it should be enough."
Wang Hou jumped up as if he had been injected with stimulants. He was different from other laborers. He had an extra spiritual energy and did not look like a walking corpse at all.
He treated life here as a form of training. His ultimate goal was to obtain the appreciation of the 'lords' and strive to make a name for himself so that he could return to that small village!
"Okay!"
Shen Qingfeng casually picked up the tools in his hands and followed everyone out. In the stone rooms, workers with numb eyes continuously walked out and gathered at the periphery of a formation. There were more than a thousand people.
"Do you see it? Devil Jade Ancient Mine was usually in a sealed state. Those cultivators who could fly and escape through the earth controlled the formation. After the formation is opened, we will go in and explore, we must return within six hours. Otherwise, once the formation is closed, it will take another month for it to be opened! "
Although Wang Hou was small, his movement technique was very agile. Like a little monkey, he crawled out and led Shen Qingfeng to the front row.2
He introduced the rules in a low voice, regardless of what secrets Shen Qingfeng had. As long as one was reliable, it was fine as long as one worked hard. It was very normal to cheat in the dark, so it was very important to have a reliable partner.
"Everyone, the formation will be activated soon. This is a battle between life and death. Only the strong can win!"
"No matter what methods you use, as long as you reach the standard, you will be appreciated by the mine owner. One person below ten thousand people!"
"I am the best proof. In the past, I was like you, living in a stone room without sunlight. But now? Everything is possible. For the sake of fame and fortune, I will bet your lives! "
On a tall platform stood a tall and thin Daoist with a goatee. His previous identity was also a laborer, but after handing over three perfect quality Devil Jade, he changed his fate. He became a true cultivator!
