Chapter 3952: Beyond Cognition
The center of the explosion in the East District of the Zu Family.
After the repair of the protective magic circle in the East District, the scope of the explosion has almost been restored to its original state.
However, at the request of Zu Qishang, the center of the explosion... that is, the place where Han Miaoyi was before was not restored, and it remained in the state of being blown up.
A group of monks surrounded the center of the explosion and whispered about what might have happened before.
Most of the monks looked confused and puzzled.
To them, the explosion happened too suddenly, and there were no follow-up events.
It seemed like just an accident...
But, what kind of accident would happen in the East District of the Zu Family?
"It's definitely not an accident. When the explosion occurred, there were clearly two violent auras! The monk who released those two auras was the initiator of the explosion!"
"Where did they go? Logically, after the explosion, our East District's magic array was immediately triggered. No matter what means these two monks used, they could not escape from here!"
"The towers near here are all used to control the prison array... The explosion here must be related to the prison array... Do we have any tasks in the near future..."
Many monks were whispering.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh..."
At this time, a figure appeared above their heads, in the air at the center of the explosion.
As soon as the aura came out, all the monks around immediately shut up and knelt on one knee with a respectful look.
"Meet Elder Qishang!"
The group of monks shouted in unison.
The fairy light flickered slightly, revealing the face of one of the monks.
He had white hair, a slightly old face, but his eyes were as sharp as arrows.
This is one of the core members of the second generation of the Zu family, Zu Qishang!
In the Zu family, all those who can be called elders are not only of seniority...but more of strength!
Zu Qishang, back then, had the opportunity to become an immortal king!
Because of this, he has a very high status in the Zu family, and is basically only suppressed by the second-generation immortal king Zu Changyun.
At this moment, Zu Qishang frowned slightly, looking at the pit below that was formed by the violent explosion.
Even the floor of the Zu family is made of extremely strong crystals.
But the explosion just now directly affected the area within dozens of miles of the Zu family!
It is conceivable... how terrifying the power of the explosion was.
"Swish!"
At this moment, another figure appeared in front of Zu Qishang and knelt on both knees.
"Elder Qishang, we just found out that the explosion occurred in the sixth tower, and the people inside the tower at that time... were Zu Yuan, Zu Liang, and Zu Zhen."
The cultivator who spoke was Zu Yuanxiu, a younger cultivator from Zu Qishang's lineage.
In terms of bloodline, he is the direct descendant of Elder Qishang.
However, in the Zu family, even father cannot be addressed directly, and must be addressed by the family title.
For example, Zu Changyun is called Gaozun, and even Zu Tian and Zu Yi have to address him as Gaozun, not father, in public.
After hearing Zu Yuanxiu's report, the faces of many monks around changed.
Zu Yuan, Zu Liang, Zu Zhen?
These three are also direct members of the Zu family. Did they cause the explosion?
What did they do! ?
"What... did they do?" Zu Qishang asked.
"The three of them brought back two foreign monks today. After the two monks were taken to the East District, they activated the prison formation and controlled one of the monks, and the other monk exploded and died on the spot..." Zu Yuanxiu lowered his head and replied, "The explosion occurred half an hour after the monk was taken to the sixth tower."
Zu Qishang narrowed his eyes.
He glanced around and frowned, saying, "They are all dead."
As soon as these words came out, the faces of all the cultivators around changed again, and they were shocked!
The three direct descendants of the Zu family died just like that! ?
They died in the explosion, and died in the Zu family!
Why did this happen! ?
Who killed them! ?
You know, the strength of these three is above the True Spirit Realm!
To kill them, their True Spirits must be destroyed!
There was only one explosion just now. No matter how violent the explosion was, it would not destroy all their True Spirits! ?
Such a thing happened, which is beyond cognition!
Zu Qishang frowned.
Obviously, in his opinion... this matter is also very strange, even a little weird.
"I need to get more clues, including all the recent movements of Zu Yuan, Zu Zhen, and Zu Liang." Zu Qishang said in a deep voice, "In addition, the identities of the two cultivators they brought back must also be found out!"
"Yes, Elder Qishang!" Zu Yuanxiu replied.
At this moment, in a distant place, Zu Tian slowly walked out of Yixin Pavilion.
He frowned and looked at the direction of the explosion, and the stars in his eyes seemed to be twinkling.
…
Through Beibei, Fang Yu and Han Miaoyi quickly returned to the study where Xiaoliyu was.
“Xiaohei! You are back so soon!” Xiaoliyu actually just returned to the study not long ago. Seeing Fang Yu appear, he jumped up happily.
“I need your help with something very important.” Fang Yu said.
“Help… But I really can’t help you now. Although my father didn’t scold me, I know that I must have caused a big disaster this time…” Xiaoliyu said a little aggrieved.
"Don't worry, you don't need to cause trouble again. I just want to ask about the situation of my ancestral home." Fang Yu said.
"Ancestral home?" Little Carp frowned and asked, "Then what do you want to ask?" In the dark and damp mine tunnel, Lu Ye carried a mining basket on his back and a mining pick in his hand, and walked forward step by step.
The website content is incorrect, please download and read the correct content. The boy's expression was a little sad, his eyes focused on the empty space in front of him, as if staring at something.
To outsiders, there was nothing in front of Lu Ye, but in fact, in the boy's field of vision, he could see a translucent shadow.
It looked like the shadow of a tree, gray and hazy, making it unclear, with lush branches and leaves, and the branches split to the left and right from one-third of the tree body, supporting a semicircular crown.
It has been more than a year since he came to this world called Jiuzhou, and Lu Ye still hasn't figured out what this thing is. He only knows that when his attention is focused enough, this shadow tree has a chance to appear in his field of vision, and others will not notice it at all.
What a miserable life. The young man sighed.
A year ago, he suddenly woke up in this strange world. Before he could get familiar with the environment, the faction he was in was occupied by a group of thieves. Many people were killed. He and some other young men and women became prisoners of the thieves, and then were sent to this mine to become a lowly miner.
Afterwards, he learned from the scattered conversations of others that the faction he was in was affiliated with the Haotian League, a sect called Xuantian Sect.
The name of this sect sounds cool and domineering, but in fact it is just a small sect that is not in the mainstream.
The one who occupied Xuantian Sect was the Xieyue Valley under the command of Wanmo Ridge.
Haotian League and Wanmo Ridge are the two major faction organizations in this world. They are all formed by the union of countless large and small forces. They fight against each other and intend to completely destroy each other. It is said that it has lasted for hundreds of years.
In Lu Ye's view, such a fight is simply the confrontation between the lawful camp and the evil camp. He was just accidentally involved in such a tide of confrontation.
Over the years, the Jiuzhou Continent has been in flames of war. Every year, small forces like Xuantian Sect are uprooted, but soon more forces emerge like mushrooms after rain, occupying various territories, making the situation even more chaotic.
Miner slaves are miner slaves. Lu Ye comforted himself. Compared with those who were killed, he was still alive.
He survived not because he had any special skills, but because Xieyue Valley needed some chores to do. People like Lu Ye who had no cultivation and were still young were undoubtedly the best choice.
In fact, the miners in this mine vein were not only from Xuantian Sect, but also from other small families and small sects.
Xieyue Valley was not weak in strength. Over the years, it had captured a lot of territories. The original forces on these territories were naturally destroyed, and some of the available manpower was sent to various places by Xieyue Valley for slavery.
These people all had one characteristic without exception: they had not yet awakened and had no cultivation, so they were easy to control.
There is a saying in Jiuzhou Continent that it is difficult for monsters to transform if they are not awakened, and it is difficult for people to practice if they are not awakened.
If you want to practice, you need to open your spiritual orifice. Only when you open your spiritual orifice, you are qualified to practice.
Opening your spiritual orifice is not a simple matter. Among ordinary people, only about one in a hundred can open their spiritual orifices after systematic training. If you come from a practicing family or sect, with the guidance of elders, this proportion may be higher.
Lu Ye failed to open his own spiritual orifice, so he could only make a living by mining in this dim mine.
However, miners are not without a way out. If you can successfully open your orifice and find the person in charge to report to the higher-ups, you will have the opportunity to participate in an assessment. If you pass the assessment, you can become a disciple of Xieyue Valley.
However, there are very few miners who can open their orifices. How can they open their orifices in this dim environment, working all day long without even having enough food?
So basically 99% of the miners have accepted their fate and work hard every day just for a full meal.
Lu Ye has no sense of belonging to Xuantian Sect. After all, Xuantian Sect was destroyed when he just came to this world, and he doesn’t know who those people in the sect are.
He didn't want to become a disciple of the Evil Moon Valley. It was not a serious force. Just hearing the name gave people a sense of evil. It would be dead sooner or later.
But he couldn't stay here as a miner for the rest of his life. That would be disgraceful. After all, he was an elite of the new era. If a person didn't have a dream, what difference would there be between him and a salted fish.
So he had been trying to open his mind for the past year. Originally, he thought that only the shadow tree that he could see could provide him with some wonderful help, but until now, this shadow tree was still just a shadow. Not to mention any help, it sometimes affected his vision.
Lu Ye seriously suspected that there was something wrong with his eyes.

Turning a corner, a faint light appeared in the distance. That was one of the exits of the mine.

Today's harvest was good. If I hand in the ore in the mine basket, I should be able to get three contribution points. Counting the accumulation of the past few days, there are about twelve points. Two points can be exchanged for two steamed buns, and the remaining ten points are just enough to exchange for a blood and qi pill.

Qi Xue Dan is a very low-level elixir, not something that helps to open up one's mind, but if one wants to open up one's mind, one must have sufficient Qi and blood. Although Qi Xue Dan is low-level, it is suitable for people like Lu Ye who have not opened up their mind.
The reason why Xie Yuegu is willing to take out Qi Xue Dan is not because of kindness, but because they are well versed in the ways of human hearts. This cheapest and lowest-level elixir can make people with hope work harder to mine.
For example, Lu Ye works very hard every day.
Thirty feet away from the exit of the mine tunnel, Lu Ye's eyes inadvertently glanced at a corner in front of the left, where there was a huge rock.
He kept walking forward until he was about ten feet away, then he put down the ore basket on his back, tightened the pick in his hand, took out a stone of moderate size from the ore basket, and weighed it slightly.

The next moment, he ran towards the boulder, approached the boulder, slid sideways, stepped on the rock wall of the mine tunnel, and swooped down behind the boulder with the rebound force, like a vigorous cheetah.
Two figures were half-crouching behind the boulder, using the boulder to cover their bodies, and they didn't expect that the newcomers would find their traces.
Hearing the noise, it was too late to see Lu Ye get up.
Under the horrified gaze of the two men, Lu Ye raised his hand and threw the ore in his hand, hitting one of them in the nose. The man immediately screamed and fell on his back with blood on his face.
Lu Ye's other hand's pickaxe shot again, but missed the second man. The man reacted well and dodged by tilting his head.
However, Lu Ye had already rushed in front of him and kicked him in the abdomen. The man was immediately full of pain, fell out, knelt on the ground, and vomited a mouthful of acid.
Lu Ye stepped forward, grabbed the other's hair with one hand, saw the other's face clearly, and sneered: I wondered who it was, it turned out to be you two brothers!
He knew these two people, they were disciples of the Liu family. After the Liu family's territory was occupied by the Evil Moon Valley, some young disciples of the Liu family were sent here to serve as mining slaves.
Strictly speaking, Lu Ye and the two brothers of the Liu family are also connected by the same fate.
The website content updates slowly, please download to read the content. Did I ever tell you not to let me see you again, or I will kill you! As Lu Ye spoke, he picked up a stone from the ground and smashed it hard.
This hit was not light, and the second brother of the Liu family only groaned and was knocked unconscious.
Lu Ye walked towards the eldest brother Liu who was injured by him before.

The eldest brother Liu's forehead was broken, and the blood blurred his eyes. He vaguely saw Lu Ye coming towards him, and he was so scared that he rolled and crawled: Spare my life, my two brothers didn't know it was you who came, and thought it was someone else. Spare my life!
The two brothers of the Liu family were sneaking in front of the exit of the mine tunnel, and naturally they had no good intentions.
Before they were caught, these two were all spoiled people. Even if they became miners, they were unwilling to suffer. However, miners were of low status, and the people of Xieyue Valley did not regard miners as human beings at all. If there was no ore exchange contribution, they could not get food at all.
So the two brothers often squatted in front of a certain exit of the mine tunnel and robbed the lone miners. Many people were unlucky because of this. Not only were the ores they worked hard to mine every day robbed, but they were also beaten half to death.

Last time they wanted to rob Lu Ye, but they were no match and were taught a lesson.
Unexpectedly, they met the two brothers again in just a few days.
There are many kinds of people in the same rice. There are lazy miners like the Liu brothers, and there are also people like Lu Ye who have dreams.
In the past year, Lu Ye’s contributions exchanged for ores, in addition to ensuring daily food and clothing, were all exchanged for Qi and Blood Pills.
In total, he took no less than 30 Qi and Blood Pills.
This made Lu Ye stronger than most miners. Although his body was not strong, the power contained in his body was better than that of ordinary people.
It was no problem to deal with two lazy miners.
Liu Lao Da was still begging for mercy, but Lu Ye pretended not to hear him. He grabbed his hair, raised the stone in his other hand, and smashed it hard.
In more than a year of life as a miner, Lu Ye had seen too many tragedies and had long understood that in this world of cannibalism, any pity and sympathy were useless.
The miners were not harmonious either. Miners from different forces were destined to be unable to unite. For a piece of good ore, miners often fought each other until their heads were broken and bloody.
People died in the mine every day. Every time you walked a distance, you could see a dead bone scattered on the ground.
There were many miners who starved to death because of being robbed.
Liu Lao Da fell down in response.
Lu Ye picked up his pickaxe, put on the ore basket again, and walked towards the exit. He did not kill the Liu brothers, not because he was soft-hearted, but because the injured miners generally could not live long here.

After walking a few steps, a person suddenly rushed in at the exit in a panic.

Get out of here! The man shouted, and slapped Lu Ye.
At this moment, Lu Ye felt cold all over, because he saw a light blue light flowing through the other person's palm.
That was the light of spiritual power. In other words, the one who attacked him was a cultivator!
Only those who opened their spiritual orifices are qualified to practice and be called cultivators.

The spiritual power of cultivators is an extremely magical power. Lu Ye had seen a cultivator from Xieyue Valley take action. Although he did not have too strong power, the man just shattered a piece of ore with a light palm. It was after seeing that magical scene that Lu Ye made up his mind to open his own spiritual orifices and become a cultivator.
He had also secretly evaluated that even the cultivator with the lowest cultivation level in Xieyue Valley could easily beat ten of himself.
So when he realized that the one who attacked him was a cultivator, Lu Ye knew that he was in great danger.
At the critical moment of life and death, he stopped his steps and jumped back.
His chest felt numb, and the sound of broken bones rang out. Lu Ye flew backwards and fell to the ground.
The severe pain made him clear his mind a lot. After realizing that he was still alive, he immediately got up.
Hey! The cultivator who attacked was a little surprised. Although he didn't use all his strength in that palm just now, he just slapped it casually, but it shouldn't be something the miner could bear.
Seeing the miner's face clearly in the dim light, he blurted out: Lu Ye?
Lu Ye had already made a posture to turn around and run away. After hearing the voice, he was also extremely shocked: Manager Yang?
This cultivator surnamed Yang was a small manager in the mine. Lu Ye often dealt with him because the Qi and Blood Pill was exchanged from him, so they were familiar with each other.
Manager Yang was very optimistic about Lu Ye. After all, it was rare to find a miner who was as hardworking and hardworking as him.

However, although he was optimistic, there was no special treatment. If he didn't open his mind, there would be an insurmountable gap between mortals like Lu Ye and cultivators.
After recognizing Lu Ye, Manager Yang was relieved that he couldn't kill him with one palm. Lu Ye had exchanged a lot of Qi and Blood Pills from him in the past year. His physical fitness was stronger than that of ordinary miners. In addition, he just hit him casually and didn't intend to kill anyone. It was not surprising that the other party survived.
Opposite Manager Yang, Lu Ye's heart was beating fast.
The cultivators of Xieyue Valley generally didn't care about the lives of miners. They also knew that miners would often fight in the mine veins. Unless they were encountered, they would basically ignore it.
Lu Ye had just beaten the Liu brothers so badly that they fell to the ground with blood all over their heads. Then Manager Yang slapped him. In Lu Ye's opinion, this was clearly Manager Yang teaching him a lesson.
