Chapter 183 Exploring the Fire Crystal Mine

"Excuse me, where are the two seniors from the human world?" Yuan Xiao asked.

"The old man with the broken arm is from the Dark Night Sect of Qin State in Beipingzhou, and his Taoist name is Dark Night True Man. I, the old man with the gap teeth, am from the Chixia Sect of Yan State in Beipingzhou, and my Taoist name is Chixia True Man. We have been deceived into this lawless place for nearly a hundred years. The spiritual energy in our bodies has been exhausted. It is estimated that in at most ten or twenty years, our bodies will decay. Now we are not far from death!" The old man with the gap teeth answered.

"We were deceived into here? Why don't you try to get out?" Yuan Xiao asked again.

"We were good friends. Before, another demon friend invited us to explore the secret realm together, but we were teleported here in a confused way, but that demon friend did not teleport in with us! I think he deceived us." The old man with the gap teeth recalled.

"When we first came here, we were desperately looking for a teleportation array to go back, but we didn't find it for two years. Later, we joined the human race and found out that they had been looking for hundreds of years and couldn't find a way back! So now we have given up." The old man with a broken arm continued.

"Don't be so desperate, there is always a way back. I happen to be from Beipingzhou, in Song, a neighboring country of Yan. Meeting is fate. I just happen to have two low-grade spirit stones here, which I brought in directly in my pocket. I will give one to each of you." Yuan Xiao handed over two spirit stones.

The old man with a gap tooth and the old man with a broken arm took a low-grade spirit stone respectively, and they were so excited that they trembled all over. How could they have thought that in this lawless place with no spiritual energy, they could get such fine spirit stones.

"With this low-grade spirit stone to absorb and replenish the vitality of the flesh, we two brothers can probably live 10 more years here. Thank you for saving my life. May I ask your name?" The old man with the gap teeth asked, and the old man with the broken arm beside him was also listening carefully.

"Yuan Xiao, the newly established sect of the Golden Sect of Song State. I plan to find a way out, especially to go to the inside of the fire crystal mine to take a look. Would you like to come together?" Yuan Xiao suggested.

"Thank you for your kindness, young man. We are now deserters. Once we are found by the human leader, we will definitely be severely punished. Anyway, we are going to die, so it is better to live a few more years outside. Besides, with your low-grade spirit stone, we can probably live 10 more years in the wild!" The old man with the gap teeth answered.

Yuan Xiao did not force it. Everyone has their own way of life and choices. There is no need to force the two old men to be the same as himself.

Yuan Xiao said goodbye to the two old men, walked to a secluded place, took out a backpack, slung it on his shoulder, and took out more than a dozen low-grade spirit stones and put them in the bag in case of emergency. If anyone asks, just say that the spirit stones were brought in with a backpack.

Yuan Xiao jumped all the way, relying entirely on the strong body at the top of the third level of the Heavenly Demon Body Refining Technique. Not only was he extremely fast, but he didn't feel tired at all.

When he climbed to the top of the mountain in front of him, he saw a red mountain in the distance ahead. It must be the mine producing fire crystals below.

At the foot of the mountain, there were two groups of people in the shadows, cleaning the battlefield.

Yuan Xiao jumped forward again for a cup of tea, and took a closer look. Some monks were carried away, and some monks were lifted away. Obviously, there were many casualties in this conflict.

Why did people keep dying? According to what the two old men said just now, why didn't the senior leaders of both sides directly participate in the war? Did they reach some kind of tacit understanding?

Yuan Xiao planned to uncover these unsolved mysteries one by one. The quickest way to know the reason is to meet the senior leaders of both sides and have a direct dialogue.

If you want to meet the high-level leaders of the human race and the demon race, you must first show your strength.

Yuan Xiao decided to start with the human race, after all, he is a human.

But most importantly, Yuan Xiao wanted to go to the mine first, first to see the fire crystal stone, and second to see the magma and fire monsters to see if he could find anything.

After making up his mind, Yuan Xiao continued to jump down the mountain, sometimes thirty feet in a jump, sometimes fifty feet in a jump. Sometimes he could even jump hundreds of feet in a jump. This is the power of the Heavenly Demon Body Refining Technique. After practicing, the physical strength is amazing.

Gradually, Yuan Xiao has come to the battlefield, but did not stop, but directly crossed the battlefield and walked towards the mine cave at the foot of the Red Mountain.

The human and demon monks who were cleaning the battlefield were about to ask, but Yuan Xiao had already passed by, and his speed was so fast that they immediately judged that this person was not easy to mess with!

In this lawless place where magic and magical powers cannot be used, it is unimaginable that the flesh can reach such a speed. Perhaps only the leader of the demon clan, Tieshan, can reach such a speed!

Yuanxiao has arrived at the gate of the Fire Crystal Mine in the surprised eyes of the monks on both sides.

There are two entrances here, and the distance is not too far, because you can see the other cave entrance by looking up.

The entrance in front of Yuanxiao is obviously the entrance of the human race, because there are two human monks guarding here at this time.

"Stop, my friend! You look unfamiliar." One of the thin human guards said.

"I really just arrived here, and I was just about to join you and help dig!" Yuanxiao replied with a smile.

"Okay, the daily task is to dig 10 pieces of Fire Crystal. You can try it for a day today, and I will officially register you tomorrow." The thin guard said after hearing this.

It seems that there is extra money today! Newcomers will not be registered today. If they dig up any ore, they can share it equally with the fat guard next to them instead of handing it in. This will at least alleviate the urgent need for themselves and the fat guard to absorb and refine their bodies.

"Do you have any digging tools?" the fat guard asked.

Yuan Xiao raised the Feilu dagger in his hand as an answer.

The fat guard did not pursue it. As long as he was not empty-handed, it would be fine. Anyway, here, even a top-grade flying sword was only equivalent to a sharp kitchen knife. Although the dagger was small, it could still be used for mining. As for whether it was useful or not, the two of them did not care.

Yuan Xiao turned and entered the mine cave and began to walk deeper into the mine cave. Because of limited manpower and limited digging tools, there were not many mine tunnels here. There were only two mine tunnels 20 to 30 feet apart, and they were digging forward in parallel.

But each mine tunnel was excavated very spaciously. If you can fly a sword, there is enough space for flying a sword here.

Yuan Xiao chose a mine tunnel and walked forward. The temperature felt higher and higher as he walked forward. I guess there was the magma that the two old men mentioned in front.

The mine battle just ended today, so there were not many people in the mine cave now. Yuanxiao walked for half an hour before reaching an important node. Here, you can see a sea of ​​magma in front of you. It looks endless. I wonder where the end of the magma is?

And within the range of the magma that the eyes can see, there will be a small stone pillar at a certain distance, irregularly distributed in the magma. As for whether there is any in the distance, it is unknown.

Mining here can't go forward, you can only drill holes to both sides, and deliberately keep a certain distance to prevent being killed by the erupting magma.

Yuanxiao stood on the edge of the magma sea and felt that the hot magma was very uncomfortable, but he could still bear it. He stretched out a finger and touched the magma, and immediately the finger was burned off several layers of skin!
