Cultivating Immortality in the Winter Wasteland.

Chapter 662: The Mine is in chaos
Xiuxian World, Jianmen,

More than a month has passed since Chen Wang returned from the Mingzhou world.

He went to Winter, handed over some resources to Yanzhi, and then returned to the world of immortal cultivation.

Chen Wang did not show these explosives and bombs, which were very different from those in the world of immortal cultivation, casually. He wanted to use them at the most critical moment.

During this month, Chen Wang's life has been very easy.

He had a Zhoutian Puppet. Although he had been traveling in the cold winter of Mingzhou during this period, his cultivation had not fallen behind at all and continued to grow stronger. This time, he left a lot of elixirs for the Zhoutian Puppet.

Chen Wang really likes this kind of cattle and horses that work all year round.

Just imagine, whether you are eating, sleeping, or doing anything else, your cultivation will become stronger. Just thinking about this makes it impossible to refuse.

During this month, in addition to practicing dual cultivation with several women, Chen Wang also practiced swordsmanship and refined magic weapons.

He is now in the late Nascent Soul stage, and his magic power has accumulated, making rapid progress.
It is getting closer to the peak of Nascent Soul stage.

"The demons are about to invade. The stronger you are, the more likely you are to survive this crisis."

"In addition to strengthening the sect's strength, we also need some powerful killing weapons."

After Chen Wang finished his training that day, a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes.

Now that the news of the demon invasion has spread, everyone is in danger, the prices of elixirs and talismans have skyrocketed, and they are no longer sold in many places.

"When there is a war, the prices of some materials will skyrocket. This is a common thing, but the damn world of immortal cultivation also drives up prices..."

Chen Wang couldn't help but curse.

At this time, Chen Wang's disciple Xiaoyun suddenly came to report, looking very anxious.

Chen Wang asked, "What happened?"

Xiaoyun was wearing a sky blue robe today. With the help of Chen Wang, he had been promoted to the Golden Core stage, and his demeanor was different from before.

He said anxiously, "The spiritual stone mine that was discovered some time ago was in chaos. More than 20 people have died inside, and the two Jindan-stage cultivators guarding there were also seriously injured."

Chen Wang frowned slightly.

"what?"

Xiaoyun then recounted what had happened in detail.

That spiritual stone mine had always been safe and sound, and Chen Wang had gone there to investigate before.

However, in order to deal with the invasion of demons during this period, a large amount of mining began and spirit stones were accumulated, so the mining progress was also very fast.

The hoe was smoking from being swung.

That day, they dug up a small branch, and heard dizzying Taoist sounds from inside. Several disciples were trapped inside, and then someone went to support them.

But nearly twenty disciples died in there!

The two Jindan-stage monks managed to escape, but they aged rapidly as if they were cursed. It was shocking to see.

After listening to Xiaoyun's report, Chen Wang frowned.

"There was a disturbance at the Spirit Stone Mine. Fortunately, Xinyue and Fairy Qingwei were not there."

Chen Wang’s mind moved.

I didn't think too much about it at the time, I just felt that it was safer in the sect.

It would have been sufficient to send some guest officials, but unexpectedly, this was the right time for the two girls to escape this disaster.

Chen Wang thought about it and realized that this spiritual stone mine was now an important strategic resource and could not be lost... unless it was too damn dangerous.

"Come with me to see the two guests first."

Xiaoyun quickly said, "Yes."

Then Chen Wang and Xiao Yun rode the golden light to the camp near the mine.

As soon as he entered, Chen Wang felt a chilly breath.

The two Jindan stage cultivators had already taken many elixirs at this time, but there was still no way to alleviate the aging process.

The two of them were lying on the bed, and one of them was already emitting a foul smell.

Chen Wang raised his eyebrows. He found that one of them had age spots on his face and many of his teeth had fallen out, which looked quite shocking.

Chen Wang glanced at Xiao Yun and said in a deep voice, "You step aside first."

Xiaoyun nodded.

Although he is in charge of the overall situation and holds a very high status in Jianmen, his cultivation is only at the Jindan stage, and he may not be able to resist this curse.

Chen Wang remained cautious.

At this time, the two men were already unconscious and had a high fever all day long.
It is incredible that a cultivator in the Jindan stage can have a high fever.

And judging from the current state, they won’t be able to hold out for much longer.

Chen Wang's spiritual sense spread out, checking the conditions of the two.

His spiritual sense is so powerful that it can be said to be omnipresent.

The spiritual consciousness traveled around the bodies of the two people and immediately discovered that there was a strong aura of death in their bodies.

Chen Wang raised his eyebrows and felt a little relieved.

"It's not a curse, it's just that I'm being attacked by some special aura."

Xiao Yun asked: "Master, what should we do?"

The spirit stones produced by this spirit stone vein can greatly arm ordinary disciples, and it is also the spirit stone reserve of Jianmen.

It is unknown whether these two guests are alive or dead. If they die, it will be the biggest loss for Jianmen.

Chen Wang raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Don't worry, let me think about it."

This kind of deathly aura, which made people die quickly, was very similar to the aging curse in the undead magic, except that it didn't look quite like it. It should be that the aura in this spirit stone vein was too strong.

"Their body functions have been attacked, and that's why they age."

A thoughtful look appeared on Chen Wang's face, and then two soft white lights penetrated into the bodies of the two men.

Chen Wang cast pure light magic.
Light spells can remove all negative effects, and are especially a natural nemesis of undead spells.

Simply put, this is a masculine force, and because it is a divine technique, it also has a healing effect.

However, after the two white lights were shot down, the two men showed no signs of recovery.

Chen Wang frowned slightly.

"Can't you?"

The healing spell I cast with my magic power cannot resolve it?

Chen Wang hesitated for a moment.

The light magic is very effective in treating external injuries and expelling evil spirits, but it failed this time.

Chen Wang thought about it for a while and took out a piece of debris.

This is the fragment he obtained when he killed the demon god in the martial arts world. It contains rich vitality.

After refining for a period of time, Chen Wang found that the vitality was surprisingly abundant.

He immediately poured his magical power into it and activated the fragment.

Soon, a gentle force entered the bodies of the two.

The two of them were originally running a high fever and were unconscious, but when the light entered their bodies, their faces instantly calmed down.

Not only that, one of them had age spots on his face, but under the healing light, the signs of aging disappeared instantly, and his lost teeth even regenerated.

From an old man to a middle-aged man.

"it works!"

Chen Wang's eyes lit up.

The power of this fragment is extraordinary. The demon god has become almost immortal because of the fusion of this fragment, relying on the vitality in it.

Chen Wang made some adjustments today, but he didn't expect it to have such an effect.

Soon, he continued to infuse his magic power to expel the negative state from the man.

The two men recovered quickly, woke up, and saw Chen Wang standing in front of them. They immediately knelt on the ground.
"Thank you, Patriarch!"

Others thought they were both unconscious, but they knew that their bodies were rapidly deteriorating.
They still had a clear sense of their bodies and were conscious, knowing that it was Chen Wang who saved their lives. They could not help but marvel in their hearts.

The ancestor actually has the ability to regenerate creation!

Xiaoyun was also very surprised.

Chen Wang asked: "What happened in the mine?"

One of these two monks was named Lu An and the other was named Sima Hui.

Lu An looked like a young man. He was originally a casual cultivator. He found a cave left by his predecessors in the mountains. After practicing hard for more than 300 years, he finally achieved the golden elixir.
Later he joined Jianmen and became a guest elder.

Sima Hui was originally from the Xuanjian Sect, but later the Xuanjian Sect was destroyed in a fight with others. He then wandered around the world, enduring humiliation and finally becoming a golden elixir.

However, before he could take revenge, his enemy was killed by Chen Wang, the ancestor of the Zhou family.

From then on, he also joined Jianmen.

Lu An said with lingering fear: "We didn't see any monsters after we went in, but we kept hearing all kinds of noises in our ears, which made us feel upset, as if many people were talking. We realized something was wrong before we went deep into it, and immediately retreated, but it was too late."

Sima Hui also nodded and said, "That's right."

Chen Wang raised his eyebrows and said, "That is to say, you don't know the real reason either."

"Have you seen those dead disciples?"

The two shook their heads.

"I haven't seen them. I think they are deep in the mine."

Chen Wang nodded, and after a moment of silence, he said, "That's not right. Neither of you can enter the depths of the mine. How could the disciples who went in to rescue people have a chance to get in?"

Lu An said: "I suspect there is nothing evil here, it's just that the aura of something has leaked out."

Chen Wang raised his eyebrows.
"Go on."

Lu An had recovered as before and was no longer in the dying state. He continued:

"If it was some kind of power spreading out, perhaps the power of those Sword Sect disciples was not that strong when they entered, but by the time the two of us entered, that aura or power had already spread."

Chen Wang raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but look at Lu An a few more times.

This person is very quick-witted.

"If this is true, doesn't it mean that this power will continue to spread?"

Chen Wang frowned again.

If only one mine has an accident, the mine can be sealed and mining can continue after confirming that nothing has happened.
But if that is the case, the entire vein will be destroyed.

Lu An and Sima Hui were also speechless.

Xiao Yun said worriedly: "Master, the prices of elixirs and talismans in various places have risen. Destroying this spiritual stone vein will be extremely disadvantageous to the sect!"

“But if this power spreads, I’m afraid that not only will the entire spiritual stone vein be destroyed, but the surrounding area will also become extinct!”

Chen Wang nodded: "Strictly order all disciples not to approach this vein."

Xiaoyun bowed and saluted: "Yes!"

Chen Wang looked at Lu An and Sima Hui and said, "You two have worked hard this time. Go back and take care of yourself first."

The two of them were pulled back from the brink of death by Chen Wang and were full of gratitude towards Chen Wang. Now that they were comforted by Chen Wang, they felt even more fond of him.

Rumors in the world of immortal cultivation say that the White-Eyebrow Patriarch of Jianmen killed people like crazy and was cold-blooded and ruthless, but was very good to his own people. Now it seems to be true.

If it were any other ancestors, Nascent Soul cultivators, etc., they probably wouldn't care about the lives of these two people at all.

Even if he was saved, he still looked arrogant.

But Chen Wang is different.

In Chen Wang's view, he is more like a boss. He has two employees who were transferred from other places. Naturally, he has to express his condolences when something happens.

Perhaps after Chen Wang has practiced for hundreds or thousands of years and has seen joys and sorrows, separations and reunions, life and death, his state of mind will change, just like other Nascent Soul cultivators, some things have become indifferent.

However, Chen Wang is still less than 30 years old and has only been practicing for a short time, so naturally his state of mind has not undergone such a change.

Simply put, he has more human qualities.

After transferring the disciples of Jianmen away, Chen Wang came to the vicinity of the mine alone.

But he didn't get too close, he took out a puppet,
This puppet is a burly man.

This is a puppet in the Jindan stage.

After Chen Wang killed people like the ancestors of the Zhou family and the Ma family, he tried to find a way to make them into puppets.

Although the puppets of the Nascent Soul stage have not yet been successfully refined, four puppets of the Golden Core stage have already been sacrificed.

He attached a wisp of spiritual consciousness to the puppet and entered the mineral vein.

Chen Wang's spiritual sense covered the entire area and confirmed the location that they had just mentioned.

After the puppet went in, it could see from its vision that there were no signs of fighting in the mine.

Chen Wang only had a wisp of spiritual consciousness attached to it, and did not hear the dizzying noise.

Chen Wang wants to be sure of the dangers involved.

If it is a power leak, we need to verify the damage to the puppet.

And if there is any powerful character in it, it can be a good opportunity to test the opponent's strength.

This puppet also held a talisman in its hand.

However, the mine was much calmer than Chen Wang had imagined.

As he walked in, he could vaguely feel the special power around him.

He saw many corpses of Jianmen monks along the way.

These corpses have turned into bones, but the clothes on their bodies have not weathered like real bones.

Chen Wang frowned: "Just simply plundering vitality?"

Chen Wang controlled the puppet and went deeper, where he saw many white bones.

The sound of wind whistling in his ears could also be heard.

Chen Wang raised his eyebrows slightly.

It sounded like someone was crying.

“Is there a powerful being in here?”

Chen Wang went deeper into the mine following many twists and turns, and soon he found a hole in the wall.

The sound of the wind came from this hole, and it sounded like someone crying.

Chen Wang looked solemn.

There are also two skeletons here. I guess these two disciples lost their lives because they dug up something.

Chen Wang controlled the puppet man and took out two paper figures from his body.

The two paper figures were only the size of a palm. After falling to the ground, they came to life and flew into the hole.

The power that permeates from this mine can plunder life.

But there is no suppression on these lifeless puppets.

After entering through the hole, you can see that the cave is a bit dark, but you can also see a little light.

Inside is a stone chamber with some gems on the top that emit a faint fluorescence.

There are stone tables, stone benches, stone chairs and everything else inside, and it looks like a person's residence.

Suddenly!

Chen Wang noticed that there was a coffin in the center of the stone chamber.

There were a lot of yellow talismans pasted on the coffin.

"hiss!"

Chen Wang suddenly felt his scalp tingling and his pupils contracted sharply.

He controlled the paper man to go forward and check, and found that the sarcophagus had been opened.
This sarcophagus is empty!
"The stuff in here has already escaped!"

Chen Wang couldn't help but gasp.
