After walking for an unknown amount of time, when Xie Tian realized that his life was slipping away, he stopped.
At this time, he had mined at least a thousand ores.
"Ten thousand miles …"
Xie Tian sighed.
After walking for ten thousand miles, other than the suppressed evil emotions and the slipping away of his life, he gained nothing.
"The deeper I go, the stronger the aura is, the more complex it is. I can't distinguish them one by one …"
He could already distinguish the aura of immortals, the ancient aura, the extremely strong demonic aura, the desolate primordial aura, the aura of wild beasts, and even the blood of shamans …
"The outer regions of the Nine Continents Burial Ground also have the same aura, but it's not as powerful and complex as this place …"
Calculating the time, it was almost a day. Xie Tian could only give up and turn back.
"Everyone stop!"
Meng Gu shouted coldly. Everyone who was as tired as dead dogs felt relieved of a heavy burden and silently returned.
Everyone's condition was extremely bad, but some people could still smile, while others had a sorrowful look on their faces.
"Now, I will announce the last rule." Meng Gu coldly scanned the group, "Within the same team, you are not allowed to steal the blood ores. Whoever steals it dies!"
His words dispelled the desire to survive in some people's hearts and made them feel even more hopeless.
But the smarter ones accurately grasped the word "same team".
"Return!"
Looking back into the depths of the mine, Meng Gu shook his head, muttered that death was not to be regretted, and led the team away.
The return journey was smooth.
Not long later, the two teams met.
Most people did not notice the faint killing intent from the other team.
Meng Gu noticed it, and so did the other team leader.
The two only looked at each other and turned around.
Rules were bloody and unreasonable.
But only these unreasonable rules could open up a path of survival in a hopeless situation, allowing those who were about to go crazy from despair to vent.
Let's just hope enough is enough. The two team leaders thought.
"Ah!"
"Hand over the ores, and I will spare your life!"
"You dare steal my ores, die!"
…
Man Chun looked at the scene in front of her in disbelief.
The two people who were attacking each other in front of her were from the same tribe as her.
However, at this moment, the two of them, who had been relying on each other for hundreds of years, were fighting over a dozen stones. They would not stop until they killed each other.
In the end, one person was killed.
The other person's face was contorted with excitement. He had just picked up the blood ore that he had risked his life to obtain when his head was smashed by another person.
Man Chun wiped away the tears that fell involuntarily. Just as she was about to mourn for her two former companions, a whistling sound that made her whole body numb came.
"How dare you!"
Meng Gu was enraged, and he quickly tried to help.
Man Chun was the Big Tree's woman. If anything happened to her, he would be in trouble.
"You want blood ores?"
Man Chun turned around and saw that the person who was stopped by Meng Gu was also her former companion. Her heart felt even more desolate.
Only his companions would know his own strength better …
Companions wouldn't be wary of each other …
Only his companions would have a greater chance of snatching the blood ore …
…
"Don't kill him." Man Chun stopped Meng Gu from killing him. She stepped forward and asked, "How many more do you need?"
"Manchun, I'm sorry, it's my fault, I'm too shameless, but, but I want to live …"
His companion kept kowtowing and begging.
Man Chun knew that his companion's guilt was real.
But in the future, his companion would still snatch his blood.
After leaving four blood ores, Man Chun turned around and left. She murmured in her heart, "Can I not be human just to survive …"
The crazy venting ended.
The two teams continued on their way.
Xie Tian walked out, glanced at Man Chun, and followed the team.
When the four teams met, it was another inhumane slaughter.
But the four team leaders could not bear to see it and chose to stop it.
It was only a dozen battles, but it was like a knife scraping away the humanity of the people. What was left was only the merciless law of the jungle.
Bam!
"Who set this rule!"
After learning about the internal strife in the mine, the furious Big Tree punched the cave wall.
Leng Le sighed and replied, "Leader, if we didn't do this, more people would die."
"So you let them kill each other?" The Big Tree said coldly, "In the long run, everyone will become animals!"
"Leader …" Leng Le laughed bitterly, "There's no need to do this in the long run. When we pass through the blood red wall, we will already be animals. Maybe you can't understand it now, but you'll understand after a few days."
In just a few days, the killing started again in the cave that night.
The Big Tree, who was already prepared, reacted quickly and immediately appeared to stop it.
The leader's authority was useless, only killing was useful.
After killing the troublemakers, the bloodied Big Tree appeared. Everyone looked at him with even more respect.
But this respect made him want to vomit.
"Blargh …"
While patting the Big Tree's back, Leng Le said, "More than three hundred people died. Some were miners, some were laborers. This was the result of the four team leaders stopping it in advance."
After vomiting, the Big Tree felt better. He asked coldly, "How's the situation?"
"Not good." Leng Le shook her head and sighed, "Four teams of more than ten thousand people, but they only dug about one hundred and fifty thousand pieces. The food they traded for was not enough for the people in the cave. Many of them are not in good condition. I don't know if they can recover tomorrow. The laborers are worried that they will be abandoned …"
Rubbing his aching head, the Big Tree stood up and shouted, "I'll go dig tomorrow too!"
"Leader, you can't!"
"I've made up my mind. Other than you, the rest of the higher-ups will go too!"
Leng Le said with admiration, "Leader's responsibility is admirable. Oh right, leader, I've already arranged for Man Chun to come and serve you tonight …"
The Big Tree was stunned. He thought of Xie Tian again.
"I'm an adult, do I still need to serve? Get down! "
Leng Le's eyes flashed coldly as she looked at the distraught Man Chun.
"Did you offend the leader?"
Man Chun, who did not want to talk, shook her head.
"Only the principles you figure out yourself are useful. It's useless for me to tell you." Leng Le stood up and left. "You only dug ten pieces at Heaven Breaking Stage Level 4, so you won't have any food for three days. I hope you think about it during these three days."
Man Chun came back to her senses and smiled as she looked at the departing Leng Le.
"So our beloved Uncle Leng is no longer human …"
"Dong dong dong dong …"
Four pieces of blood ore rolled to Man Chun's feet.
Man Chun was stunned. She flew into the small cave, but did not see anyone.
She returned to the small cave and picked up the four pieces of blood ore. She cried again.
"Other than myself, there's someone else in this cave, a human …"
Four pieces of blood ore was something that Xie Tian could do. He was willing to do it.
Looking at the food in front of him that even a pig would not want to eat, he sighed and put it into his storage bag.
Four pieces of blood ore was enough to exchange for a portion of food that would not starve to death. However, he would rather give blood ore than food.
If he gave blood ore, the other party would still be human.
If he gave food, the other party would really become livestock.
"Isolating all the Power of Heaven and Earth and devouring life, no wonder the beasts are unwilling to enter the mine …"
Xie Tian smiled as he thought of the beasts' gigantic bodies.
The bigger the body, the stronger the devouring power.
If the beasts came in, it would be no different from seeking death.
"The amount of time they've been mining is the same amount of time they've been devouring life. I wonder how big is the body that needs such life … hmm?"
Xie Tian's mumbling stopped abruptly, and his blood-red eyes focused.
At this moment, he suddenly thought of the fork in the mine.
"If I view this fork as a blood vessel, then …"
Thinking of this, Xie Tian's hair stood on end. His blood-red eyes were filled with disbelief!
