"Thank you for your generous gift, Young Master Lu. But I'm not particularly interested in spiritual swords and elixirs. If Young Master Lu can help me and my two nephews get out of the Blackwater Stronghold's mine, it would be good even if my two nephews went to a small secular country to start a family. If Young Master Lu can help us, even if I have to sacrifice my old bones, I'll repay Young Master Lu. I'll even help Young Master Lu refine a magic weapon. "
Weng Zhihan seized the last opportunity to say this. Lu Xiaotian had no reason to continue staying in the Blackwater Stronghold's mine. If he couldn't seize this opportunity, he would never have the chance to see the light of day again.
"Qian Dali is also quite suspicious of me. I can't promise you anything now. If the situation permits, I'll get you out."
Lu Xiaotian thought for a moment and said with a frown. It wouldn't take much effort to get them out. After all, those who seriously offended the Divine Firmament Palace were directly executed. Those who were exiled to the mine were not sentenced to death. Moreover, Weng Zhihan had been imprisoned for nearly 20 years. Spending some Spirit Stones to smooth over the relationship and bribing the mine supervisor might work. But this time, he still had to face the threat of Qian Dali.
If he could get a magic weapon, it would naturally be good. But if he could get a Foundation-building Elixir and successfully build his foundation, he could also refine magic weapons in the future.
He couldn't even protect himself, so how could he care about Weng Zhihan? Therefore, Lu Xiaotian didn't say anything definite.
"Thank you, Young Master Lu. I'll wait for your good news."
Weng Zhihan was old and shrewd. Although he didn't have much contact with Lu Xiaotian in the past six years, he knew that Lu Xiaotian didn't like trouble. It was already a pleasant surprise to be able to promise him so much. If he continued to pester him, he would make Lu Xiaotian unhappy and end up making a fool of himself.
Breathing in the fresh air outside the mine, Lu Xiaotian felt as if he had been separated from the world for a lifetime. He had stayed in the Blackwater Stronghold's mine for more than six years. This loneliness and persistence was indescribable.
"Quickly hand over the Spirit Stones and get back to the mine. Don't dawdle."
A fat man with a bare belly waved his whip and urged Lu Xiaotian. Although Lu Xiaotian's cultivation seemed to be two levels higher than his, no matter how high his cultivation was, he was just a miner. Not to mention that there were a large number of cultivators guarding outside the mine.................
Lu Xiaotian had just landed on the ground and was still in a daze.
"Hey, I'm talking to you." Fatty walked over fiercely with his whip in hand.
"I'm not a miner. I'm here to do odd jobs. I don't want to do it anymore." Lu Xiaotian flashed his identity token.
"That's impossible. I've been here for more than a year, and I've never seen any disciple enter the mine, let alone a disciple who's at the peak of Qi Refining like you." ......... ".................... Master...................
"Whose father are you?"
. Lu Xiaotian narrowed his eyes. His eyes emitted a hint of danger. He was now at the Great Completion of the Qi Refining Realm. Among the tens of thousands of Qi Refining Realm disciples in the Divine Cloud Palace, he was one of the top disciples except for those who had magic weapons. In the world of cultivators, the strong preyed on the weak. He did not need to be too polite to this supervisor.
When he first entered the mine, he was not part of this group of cultivators. But this was normal. With the passage of time, the cultivators guarding the Blackwater Stronghold's mine were transferred almost every year. Some could even shorten the time as long as they paid Spirit Stones.
"What? Do you want to fight?" Being stared at by Lu Xiaotian, the fat man felt his scalp tingle. He took a few steps back uncomfortably. But he still refused to show weakness.
Seeing that their fellow disciple seemed to be in conflict with the miner, several nearby Divine Cloud Palace disciples gathered around.
"This miner wants to make trouble. I'll skin him." The fat man blushed because of his retreat. Seeing his fellow disciples gathering around, he suddenly felt emboldened. He pulled his whip and sneered.
Lu Xiaotian raised the waist token in his hand. "The palace strictly forbids disciples from fighting. Do you want to violate the palace rules? "
"What's going on?"
A melodious voice that sounded like an oriole's rang out. The surrounding cultivators opened up a path for a young girl in a light purple dress to walk over.
"Wu Shijie, this miner pretended to be a disciple of the Immortal Palace and wanted to sneak out. I blocked him. "The fat man was the first to complain.
"No, I saw that his waist token was indeed from the Immortal Palace." Another disciple said.
"Which peak are you from? Show me your waist token." Oh Yeon looked at Lu Xiaotian with her beautiful eyes.
"Lu Xiaotian, a disciple of the Green Lotus Peak. I entered the Divine Cloud Palace more than six years ago." Lu Xiaotian handed his waist token to the person they called Wu Shijie. Her cultivation was similar to his.
"Your identity is confirmed. How long have you been in the mine?" Oh Yeon took the waist token and checked it with her Divine Sense. Then she asked.
"I joined the sect for nearly two months and entered the Blackwater Stronghold's mine. It's been more than six years." Lu Xiaotian said.
"What? Impossible. You've been in the mine for more than six years without eating or drinking. How can you last until now? I've never seen you come up to exchange for food. "The fat man caught the loophole in Lu Xiaotian's words.
"Yes, this person looks unfamiliar. We've never seen him before." The other cultivators nodded.
"Let the other miners help me exchange for food. I don't need to go there personally for such a small matter. Is there a problem?" Lu Xiaotian said with a smile.
"In that case, where are the spirit stones you dug?" Someone suddenly asked.
Lu Xiaotian threw the storage bag given to him by the mine supervisor to the fat man.
The fat man poured out the spirit stones inside. There was a pile of spirit stones. Counting the number, there were more than 13,000 pieces. Although the number was astonishing, it was not a long time since Lu Xiaotian entered the mine for six years. In fact, Lu Xiaotian was also a little reluctant. However, he had been in the mine for so long. If he didn't hand over a bit, or if it was too little, it wouldn't be justifiable.
However, he had benefited from the secret cave that was rich in spirit stones. He still had several times more spirit stones of various elements in the barrier. In addition, there were hundreds of mid-grade spirit stones. Handing over these was just a little painful.
"Brother Lu is really amazing. He can stay in the mine for six years."
"That's right. Excluding the amount that we have to hand over to the sect, Senior Martial Brother Lu still has a net profit of over two thousand three hundred spirit stones. It seems that mining really is a profitable job."
After proving his identity, the surrounding cultivators began to talk to Lu Xiaotian. Especially when they saw that Lu Xiaotian could get such a large amount of spirit stones, they became even more greedy. Some thick-skinned cultivators simply called him Brother Lu.
"Forget it. Don't talk about six years. If you have the ability, you can stay in the mine for two months." A cultivator immediately retorted disdainfully. Then everyone couldn't help but feel a trace of admiration and awe.
The one who was recognized as Wu Shijie returned the waist token to Lu Xiaotian with a respectful look. The information in the waist token showed that Lu Xiaotian had entered the Spirit Cloud Palace at the sixth level of Qi Refining. After six years, he had already completed the Qi Refining Realm. And he had been staying in the mine to dig spirit stones and cultivate.
