In Yu Bao's eyes, these sinful miners were like weeds. Adding on the fact that he had the Black Flood Dragon Scissors, Yu Bao couldn't help but view these incompetent miners as ants. It was also because of his ruthlessness that made the miners tremble in fear while looking for Lu Xiaotian, all of them distanced themselves from Yu Bao.
Another year passed. Apart from injuring Lu Xiaotian twice, Yu Bao still ended up with nothing. Yu Bao suddenly remembered that the two year period with Qian Dali was almost up. He had no choice but to leave the Black Water Stronghold's mine in frustration.
Green Lotus Peak. Qian Dali expressionlessly listened to Yu Bao narrate his experiences in the Black Water Stronghold's mine.
Yu Bao spoke until his mouth and tongue were dry. All he talked about was how complicated the Black Water Stronghold's mine was and how many tunnels there were. How crafty Lu Xiaotian was.
"If that's the case, then return the Black Flood Dragon Scissors. You can leave first." Qian Dali was silent for a while before finally saying something. He also knew that Yu Bao was not lying. Throwing a few thousand people into the mine wouldn't cause much of a stir. Finding someone with the intention to hide is indeed quite difficult. Not to mention Yu Bao, who was only a qi refining cultivator, even he himself went in before and came up empty-handed. It's just that two years in exchange for such a useless result, Qian Dali couldn't help but feel displeased. But he was about to leave and didn't have the time to waste on a qi refining cultivator like Lu Xiaotian.
Qian Dali waved his hand and the Black Flood Dragon Scissors flew out from Yu Bao's body.
Yu Bao's heart was filled with reluctance. The feeling of being able to control the lives of the other miners in the mine was mostly built on the Black Flood Dragon Scissors. Otherwise, with Lu Xiaotian's talismans, it would be enough to make him suffer. But the Black Flood Dragon Scissors were ultimately not his. No matter how reluctant he was, there was nothing he could do.
What Yu Bao didn't know was that after he left Qian Dali's cave, Qian Dali snorted and pointed at the Black Flood Dragon Scissors floating in the air. A black crystal suddenly appeared at the handle of the Black Flood Dragon Scissors.
If Yu Bao was here, he would definitely be shocked to death. Qian Dali actually placed a Shadow Stone on the Black Flood Dragon Scissors. Once he used the Black Flood Dragon Scissors, his magic power would also activate the Shadow Recording Stone, recording everything that happened in the mine.
Sure enough, at this moment, under Qian Dali's control, the Image-Recording Stone projected a few beams of light. Within the beams of light, there were shadows. It was the scene of Yu Bao and Lu Xiaotian fighting for the first time.
"Huh? You've entered the seventh layer of Qi Refining? You've reached the late stage of Qi Refining in such a short time. It really makes me speechless. It seems that old bastard Qian Dali guessed correctly. You really do have some extraordinary treasure on you. "
"Since you're dead, your storage pouch is naturally mine. Qian Dali, that old bastard, would never have thought that after all his scheming, he would only end up making a wedding dress for me. "
The light and shadow was filled with Yu Bao's arrogance and insufferably arrogance. If Qian Dali hadn't seen the shadow recorded by the Shadow Recording Stone with his own eyes, he wouldn't have thought that Yu Bao, who had been so humble in front of him, would have such a sinister and arrogant side.
What followed was a fierce battle. Lu Xiaotian used the talisman and the Gauze Smoke Fruit to escape. Then, a black mist filled the air.
There were also scenes of Yu Bao using the Black Flood Dragon Scissors to kill the miners.
"Bang! Damn it!" Qian Dali's expression was gloomy as he crushed the Shadow Recording Stone into powder. After a long while, Qian Dali smiled coldly. "A mere Qi Refining cultivator dares to play tricks with me? I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice. You really don't know the difference between life and death. However, Lu Xiaotian's cultivation has advanced so quickly. There really is something fishy about this. It won't be too late to force him to submit once we return. "
Yu Bao greedily breathed in the fresh air outside. Staying in the mine for two years had really made him feel like he was about to go crazy. Although he didn't complete his mission, he didn't suffer any losses. During this time, he used the medicinal pills provided by Qian Dali to cultivate faster than usual. The only pity was that he didn't catch Lu Xiaotian and obtain the treasures in Lu Xiaotian's possession.
At this moment, Yu Bao still didn't know that Qian Dali had already seen through his little scheme. Although the Shadow Recording Stone was uncommon, it wasn't a special treasure. However, Qian Dali's method of hiding the Shadow Recording Stone was very ingenious. It couldn't be hidden from Foundation Establishment cultivators. Even a small number of top Qi Refining cultivators might be able to detect it. However, Yu Bao was obviously not one of them.
"I can't be Qian Dali's disciple anymore. I'll rest for two days and go to the Handyman Hall to see if there's any suitable work." Yu Bao sighed.
A few days later, when Yu Bao was riding a spirit crane, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart. Unable to bear the pain, he lost his footing and fell off the spirit crane. He died.
Although a few cultivators who were close to Yu Bao felt that something was unusual, there had never been a disciple of the Divine Firmament Palace who fell off a spirit crane. What was even more bizarre was that Yu Bao's body seemed to have been poisoned. However, Yu Bao's body was quickly taken away and burned.
Those who were clear-minded faintly linked this matter to Qian Dali. However, there was no evidence, and Qian Dali was a Foundation Establishment cultivator, so they couldn't afford to offend him. This matter was reduced to idle talk among some disciples of the Divine Firmament Palace, and then it was left unsettled.
Unlike Yu Bao's situation, Lu Xiaotian had a few near-death encounters with Yu Bao, but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Coincidentally, he entered a secret mine with abundant Spirit Stones.
"Black Flower Elixir!" Lu Xiaotian happily picked up a round, shining elixir. From now on, this elixir would accompany him until he reached the Foundation Establishment stage.
After refining the Black Flower Elixir, Lu Xiaotian's cultivation speed sped up again. The Bounded Domain was always filled with a large amount of Spiritual Qi. For the rest of the time, Lu Xiaotian kept practicing the Puppet Skill, as well as various primary magic spells. Usually, a cultivator's combat power depended on various combat skills or magic spells. With the gradual depletion of Spirit Stones, most cultivators began to switch to various combat skills that consumed less Spirit Stones.
Lu Xiaotian's Primeval Chaos Scripture did not have a set of combat skills. Apart from the Puppet Skill, there were only primary magic spells to choose from. Fortunately, the mine could produce all kinds of Spirit Stones. With the help of a large number of Spirit Stones, his attainment in magic spells began to be reborn, making rapid progress.
"Who is it?" One day, Lu Xiaotian opened the furnace and took out the elixir. A strange sound came from the mine tunnel in the distance. Lu Xiaotian focused his eyes, put away the elixir and alchemy furnace, and stood up.
"Young … Young Master Lu, it's us, uncle and nephew Weng Zhihan." An old and weak voice came from the darkness.
After confirming that no one was following them, Lu Xiaotian appeared from the darkness. At this time, the uncle and nephew trio did not seem to be in a good situation. Weng Sujie and Weng Zhihan were covered in dust and looked very embarrassed. Especially Weng Zhihan, there was a wound on his chest that was so deep that his bones could be seen. It should have been caused by a pickaxe. Needless to say, he had a conflict with other miners.
"Young Master Lu, this old man has finally found you! Ever since you left, every day felt like a year to this old man, and I was hunted down everywhere!" Looking at Lu Xiaotian, Weng Zhihan was on the verge of tears.
"It's you guys. How did you know I was here?" Lu Xiaotian asked.
"When we smelled the fragrance of the elixir, we guessed that Young Master Lu was refining elixir again. I'm not afraid that Young Master Lu will laugh at us. Only in the vicinity of Young Master Lu's cave would there be an intoxicating smell of elixir. So even though we did not see it just now, we guessed that Young Master Lu was nearby. "Weng Suqiu said.
"Yes, Young Master Lu does not need to worry. The three of us have been running for our lives. Ever since Young Master Lu's enemies left, many miners died in the mine. The power of the mine was reshuffled and it was very chaotic. This old man was also injured because of this. Young Master Lu will not be in danger now. Also, this old man has been keeping Young Master Lu's Ice Silk well. I wonder if Young Master Lu has the intention to go out and reorganize the situation in the mine? "Weng Zhihan took out a pack of Ice Silk with trembling hands.
"Thank you for your concern. I'm refining a new elixir. Reorganizing the order in the mine can wait for a while."
Lu Xiaotian pondered for a moment. At this time, there were still a lot of spirit stones in the barrier. He could still hold on for a while. Moreover, it was hard to say if Yu Bao had really left the mine or if he was just bluffing him. He would have to ask around in the mine later. After all, he had almost died in Yu Bao's hands several times.
