Deep inside the mine.
A secluded tunnel.
Gu Qing Shan crouched in a dark corner and drew the Chao Yin sword: "Chao Yin, I want to try and see if I can borrow your power"
— — if [Jade Tree Deep Shadow] can allow me to wield the power of a sword and increase it by another level, that would be unimaginable!
Gu Qing Shan circulated her Huang Quan Origin power and infused it into the mask.
The Evil Face of the Six Paths named "Jade Tree" gradually emitted a strange power.
Suddenly, the Chao Yin sword let out a low sobbing sound.
"What's the matter?" Gu Qing Shan asked in surprise.
The Earth sword's heavy voice suddenly resounded: 「 You can't, Gu Qing Shan, that mask of yours can absorb our power, but this absorption is a form of great harm to us 」
Luo Bingli's voice also resounded: "If the Earth sword and I had combined into that Abyssal Soul Artifact, we would be able to resist this mask — — but I'm currently in a separate state from the Earth sword, if you use this mask on us, it will harm our very foundations from the perspective of Laws"
Gu Qing Shan asked: "Shannu, what about you?"
Shannu replied: "Gongzi, I'm not afraid of this mask, if you want to take the Thaumaturgy from me, feel free to do so"
Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised, then asked: "Then will you be harmed?"
Shannu replied: "I won't, but I might have to fall into slumber for a very long time"
How can I do that? Gu Qing Shan sighed and replied: "It seems the items of the Wraith realm are always filled with a sense of evil, I can't simply use them"
He gave up on his previous idea and walked into the mine until he reached the deepest part of the tunnel.
"Xiao Seng, you can come out now" Gu Qing Shan spoke in a low voice.
Zhao Xiao Seng abruptly appeared.
He quickly sensed the chaotic scene in the tunnel.
The outside world was still in a state of chaos, the cultivators searching for ores were killing each other to steal the ores, the fluctuations of their spells could be felt even from afar.
"Benefactor Gu, where are we? What's the situation with those Wraith cultivators? "he asked.
"We're inside a mine, it's very chaotic here, we need to temporarily hide" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Zhao Xiao Seng took a deep breath.
The stench of blood in the air was getting stronger and stronger, and the screams were endless.
People were dying all the time.
"Amitabha" Zhao Xiao Seng couldn't hold it in any longer, his face showed a compassionate expression as he put his palms together: "May these people be received after death, Namo Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva"
Gu Qing Shan whispered, "Someone is coming."
At the same time, both of them retracted their energy fluctuations.
Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard. A cultivator wearing a devil mask jumped out from the darkness of the mine.
His clothes were stained with blood, and the pickaxe in his hand was still dripping with blood. When he saw Gu Qing Shan, he laughed maniacally: "Hahaha, Fifth Chen, you coward, so you were hiding in the most secluded tunnel. Hand over the Cloud Pattern Immortal Jade ore you dug today, or I will kill you!"
Gu Qing Shan's expression didn't change. She reached out her hand to grab the sword from the void.
Zhao Xiao Seng pressed his hand down.
"What is it?" Gu Qing Shan casually asked, her tone carrying faint killing intent.
Zhao Xiao Seng appeared sorrowful and muttered: "This person's killing intent is intense, but he is still a life. Benefactor Gu, why don't you give him the ore so that he doesn't end up in Huang Quan after his death?"
Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised, but her tone became gentle: "Fake monk, I didn't think you would have a bit of mercy"
He pulled his hand back and kicked the basket away.
Gu Qing Shan isn't a bloodthirsty person, so since his companion had asked for it, he wouldn't do anything.
— — since Zhao Xiao Seng tried to stop me from killing, he must have a way to deal with this.
The other cultivator caught the basket, looked down, and muttered: "Indeed, we only discovered the Cloud Pattern Immortal Jade ore about half an hour ago, being able to dig up these few pieces is already your limit"
Saying so, his killing intent dissipated a bit.
"Amitabha, benefactor, please leave now that you've obtained the ore" Zhao Xiao Seng said.
As the cultivator was about to leave, he turned around to look at Zhao Xiao Seng.
He looked at Gu Qing Shan, then at Zhao Xiao Seng, his eyes moved a bit, then realized.
"Fifth brother Chen, you are truly sly, you actually brought a helper into the mine!"
The cultivator didn't intend to leave and instead took a few steps forward.
"What now?" Gu Qing Shan whispered to Zhao Xiao Seng.
Zhao Xiao Seng smiled bitterly and clasped his palms together: "This person's greed and killing intent are both triggered, let me talk to him and change him — —"
Suddenly, his voice was cut off by the other side.
The cultivator's tone carried killing intent as he shouted: "Monk, what did you dig up here?"
"Amitabha, benefactor, don't be obsessed with mere ores, in truth — — -"
The cultivator cut him off again and cursed: "Bald donkey, don't waste words with me, hurry up and hand over the ores you're hiding!"
Zhao Xiao Seng went silent.
A metal hammer suddenly appeared in his hand.
The metal hammer moved like a flash of lightning — — -
Boom!!!
Intense wind blew, causing the ground to tremble.
Blood filled the air.
Bits and pieces of rock continuously fell down from above.
Gu Qing Shan silently stood on one side, waited for a few breaths' worth of time, then walked forward and picked up the yaksha mask to check.
— — this cultivator's mask was the same as Fifth brother Chen, used to search for ores.
It seems that everyone in this mine was the same, there was no difference in status.
He couldn't help but ask: "Xiao Seng, didn't you want to have Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva receive them?"
"Receiving them is the Bodhisattva's job, sending them on their way is this little monk's job" Zhao Xiao Seng replied.
Feeling that his words were a bit rude, Zhao Xiao Seng put the hammer away and awkwardly replied: "Benefactor Gu, I'm not actually bald, it's just that my hair is a bit sparse, and due to my reverence for Buddhism, I specifically shaved my head"
Gu Qing Shan went silent.
So that's why you acted.
They only care about the ores, who would care about your hair?
You're being too sensitive!
Gu Qing Shan looked at the pile of flesh on the wall of the mine and sighed: "I might as well wipe it clean with my sword, at least it wouldn't be as bloody as you are now"
"Amitabha, this little monk was indeed angry, but he dared to call me bald, this little monk can't forgive him"
"… Zhao Xiao Seng"
"Hm?"
"I think even after the Apocalypse is over, you won't be able to shave your head …"
Gu Qing Shan waved her hand to summon the basket back in front of him.
Gu Qing Shan took out a long piece of blue jade from the basket and said: "It seems this riot was caused by the discovery of this ore called 'Cloud Pattern Immortal Jade'"
Zhao Xiao Seng replied: "I know about this ore, the amount of spirit energy it contains is 500 times that of a spirit stone of the same size, a necessary currency for high-level cultivators"
Gu Qing Shan nodded: "No wonder it's so crazy — — - if it's such a valuable ore, someone will most likely come to suppress this riot very soon"
As the two of them were talking, a loud voice suddenly spread through the entire mine.
「 All mining cultivators are to stop fighting and leave the mine within 30 breaths' worth of time, violators will be killed without mercy!
」 Gu Qing Shan glanced at Zhao Xiao Seng.
"Amitabha, benefactor Gu, I'll leave the rest to you. If there are any problems with fighting or time, feel free to call me out to help" Zhao Xiao Seng said.
"I understand about fighting, but what do you mean by time?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Other than delivering living beings from suffering, if you say something wrong when you're dealing with those wraiths, Xiao Seng can use a temporal technique to help"
Zhao Xiao Seng's figure flashed and disappeared without a trace.
He seemed to have a special connection with the Cang Hai Heavenly Ship, allowing him to return to the artifact at any time.
While the two of them were talking, a few breaths had already passed.
Gu Qing Shan hurriedly picked up her hoe, dragged her basket, and walked towards the exit of the mine in her tattered clothes.
