As time went by, the battle became fierce.
While Li Su was searching for the teleportation array, he was also constantly snooping for news from the battlefield.
The raid by the Six Demonic Sects was ineffective, and they had a battle with the Seven Yue Sects at the border. More than 10,000 monks were killed or injured, and seven or eight Golden Core monks also died.
It can be said that this time the demonic invasion did not bring good results to both sides.
The hard power of the Yue Kingdom was slightly weaker than that of the Six Demonic Sects, so when they faced off against the Demonic Sect at the border of Jiang State, they sent eloquent people to the surrounding countries to ask for help.
The buffer zone left between the demonic path and the righteous path is not limited to the seven sects of Yue Kingdom.
The three sects of the Yuanwu Kingdom are comparable to those of the Yue Kingdom.
Some monks from the destroyed Jiang Kingdom and Chaqi Kingdom also fled.
In addition to these countries, the Zijin Kingdom, Dongyu Kingdom, and Beiliang Kingdom, these neutral forces close to the Yue Kingdom, are all likely to be won over by the seven factions of the Yue Kingdom. Although the forces of these countries will not exert their utmost efforts, the truth is that the lips will die and the teeth will be cold. The other party also understands that he will not refuse the easy things of waving flags and sending people to help.
Although recruiting allies in this way may not necessarily defeat the Six Demonic Sects, at least the power on the surface is not inferior to the Six Sects, and it also gives reassurance to the monks of the Seven Sects who rely on the formation to garrison.
On this day, in the mine.
Li Suzheng and Xin Ruyin explore the mine.
This Lingshi mining area is very large and ranks among the top ten in the Yue Kingdom.
Thousands of years of mining history have left many mining tunnels here.
Even if the foundation-building monks activate a large formation to protect the main spiritual stone production area, it is impossible to protect the entire mining area of Nuo Da.
Li Su's strength surpassed all the monks in the mining area, and with the support of Xin Ruyin, the formation master, it was not difficult to sneak into the abandoned mine tunnels in the mining area. The two of them sneaked in from dozens of miles away.
Along the way, the mine tunnel was pitch black and there were gravel pits under their feet. Fortunately, the two of them were foundation-building monks and were not afraid of some falling rocks on the top of the mine.
When passing some forks in the road, you can still see some ancient stone tablets, inscribed with the time when the abandoned mine tunnels were dug.
There were even some fragments of white bones mixed with pieces of clothing left in the mine.
The dried excrement of some monsters and beasts.
Remaining mining pickaxe.
"Squeak!"
The two people who were searching disturbed a nest of mine rats.
The mine rats, whose eyes had degenerated and were so fat, were running around in the mine in shock.
Xin Ruyin was startled and took half a step back involuntarily.
"Don't be afraid!"
Li Su took Xin Ruyin's hand.
The two of them had been searching the cave for several days, but the mine seemed to have no beginning or end.
There are traces of excavations all over the ground.
Some old mines are connected to new mines, like a huge underground maze.
"I...it's okay!"
Xin Ruyin shook his head, took out the gourd from his storage bag, and took a sip of spring water.
"It's a pity that the mine you mentioned has never been found."
Li Su knew that Xin Ruyin was anxious, so he used the excuse he had already thought of: "I also accidentally learned some superficial information. The information mentioned the ancient teleportation array here. According to the person who left the message, , he received the inheritance from the monks of Chaos Xinghai..."
"The sea of chaotic stars!"
Xin Ruyin looked yearning.
Li Su had long started to pay attention to various news about Chaos Xinghai. Although all he collected was some false and backward information, Xin Ruyin still knew that it was a place rich in resources.
If he can really find the teleportation array that Li Su mentioned, Xin Ruyin is sure to use the resources of Chaos Xinghai to achieve the golden elixir!
"Okay, get some rest." Li Su held a compass in his hand to locate himself: "We are approaching the main mining area and sent out spirit bees to explore first..."
Li Su also knew that he had made a mistake of not thinking carefully.
According to the description in the original book, the mining area was attacked by demons. Han Li and many foundation-building monks took advantage of the chaos and broke into the mine. Then they fled randomly and encountered a white jade spider looking for food. With the guidance of the white jade spider, they found the ancient mine. Teleportation array.
Compared to finding an unknown teleportation array, it is easier to lure the white jade spider in the mine!
Li Su formulated another search method in his mind and released some unmodified spirit bees in his pocket.
I don’t know how long it took, in the main mining area.
A hunchbacked figure was carrying a heavy backpack, crawling alone in the gloomy mine tunnel.
"Ahem!"
A heartbreaking cough.
Wang Ergou sat back on the mine tunnel and took out dry food and water from his arms.
He was once a bandit in a cottage in the Yue Kingdom. After the cottage was captured by the officers and soldiers of the Yue State, he thought he would be stabbed in the vegetable market, but he did not expect that he would be resold here by someone from the government.
I came into contact with an immortal that I had never come into contact with in the first half of my life! '
"The Immortal wants these stones. You can't eat or drink them. I don't know what kind of treasure they are?"
Wang Ergou took out a piece of rag from his arms, with several thumb-sized spiritual stones wrapped in it.
He soaked these broken spirit stones in clean water, and then Wang Ergou drank the clean water into his stomach.
I was thinking in my mind, something that all immortals want, if I soak it in water and drink it, it should prolong my life, right?
"Bata!"
Wang Ergou was chewing on the rancid buns, but he felt a drop of water dripping from his head.
This is a mine tunnel, which is prone to water accumulation.
If you find stalactites, the water will flow for free.
Wang Ergou wiped it without paying attention.
It's a pity that the hand wiped.
sticky?
Wang Ergou was stunned and looked up.
A white spider the size of a calf, with eight claws and a bunch of eyes staring at it, its fat tail pointed at the dog under it, its ferocious mouthparts drooling drop by drop.
"Ahhh!"
Wang Ergou's scream echoed in the mine tunnel.
Building foundations and residences in mining areas.
Han Li was playing with a wooden carving in his hand.
With nothing to do, Han Li was thinking about improving his combat power, and then he remembered the "Dayan Jue" and "Puppetry".
Han Li was extremely envious of the fact that people from the Qianzhu Sect could control hundreds of puppets at once.
"If I can control so many puppets, my combat effectiveness will definitely be greatly improved!"
Han Li touched the centuries-old iron wood in his hand.
In the eyes of people from the Qianzhu Sect, these spiritual trees are already rare and top-notch puppet materials.
But in Han Li's hands they were just consumables for practicing puppet making.
"Junior Brother Han."
A Ji Zhu came to call him. His name was Lu Tianmeng, and he was a monk whose cultivation level was second only to Xuanye.
"What's the matter, Senior Brother Lu?"
"Junior brother, the mine has been unsettled recently. It seems that some monster has entered?"
"Monster?"
Han Li shook his head.
Don't be afraid if demonic thieves come to attack!
"Yes, quite a few miners have disappeared..."
"Oh, the miners disappeared recently?"
Faced with Han Li's doubts, Lu Tianmeng said truthfully: "Actually, some miners disappeared in scattered places earlier, but the monks stationed there did not dare to search, so they reported it to our sect, but no one has been taking care of it..."
Han Li understood in his heart.
This is a hidden danger left over from long ago. It is probably that Xuan Le wanted to take the opportunity to eliminate the hidden danger.
"We understand."
Han Li and Lu Tianmeng went to the meeting together.
We discussed the plan to exterminate the monsters in the cave. Unfortunately, in the face of the enthusiastic Xuan Le, everyone felt that it was better to do less than to do more. The monsters in the cave were not an urgent task to be completed.
After a round of discussions, there was no result!
However, a plan was made for several foundation-building monks to patrol the mine tunnels according to time.
If you encounter a miner calling for help, you need immediate rescue.
Han Li returned to his residence to continue practicing.
Under the mine tunnel.
Li Su took back a swarm of spirit bees.
After counting the number of flying spirit bees, he pointed in one direction and said to Xin Ruyin: "This way."
Xin Ruyin asked in confusion: "Why here?"
"The news I got mentioned that the teleportation array is guarded by blood jade spiders." Li Su pointed at the spirit beast bag and said: "I deliberately sent the spirit bees out just to feed them to the blood jade spiders."
Xin Ruyin suddenly felt enlightened.
After walking along the mine tunnel, Li Su stopped after a while and said, "Wait a little longer."
"What's wrong?"
Li Su knelt down and pinched a strand of white silk thread.
"Spider silk!"
Xin Ruyin narrowed her eyes and said.
"Not bad, it seems we're getting closer..."
Li Su rubbed the spider silk with his hands and found that this strand of spider silk was very tough.
It is worthy of being the spider thread that can hang up the Xutian Cauldron!
Li Su took out the magic sword and carefully knocked on the wall. After a while, a rustling sound came.
An ordinary monk would probably not be able to hear it, but Li Su's extraordinary ears could easily hear the sound.
Li Su holds the semi-magic weapon 'Seven Star Sword' in one hand.
This Seven-Star Sword came from the Yan family's trophy. It is unknown what kind of metal it is forged from. It is about the length of an adult man's forearm. There are seven spaces hollowed out on the scarlet sword. No wonder it is called the 'Seven-Star Sword'. .
Li Su was also curious about this 'magic weapon' and felt that this 'Seven Star Sword' should be a fragment of the magic weapon, missing the seven most important space items on the sword.
It's a pity that Li Su doesn't know what is missing? Don't know how to fix it?
"Whoosh!"
Li Su moved his fingers, and the sword cut through the air.
Although the sword body is not as tough as the iron spirit, this sword has the characteristics of blood-sucking and regeneration. As long as the broken blade is drunk with blood, it can be restored to its original state without any visible damage.
"hiss!"
The white jade spider crawled from the top of the cave. Xin Ruyin also saw the spirit insect above his head. Lan Zhi lightly pinched his chest to activate the sword technique.
A sword energy as thin as silk was activated and shot directly at the white jade spider.
"Pfft!"
The yin and yang sword energy is extremely powerful.
The white jade spider staggered and fell from the top of the mine. Its carapace was dented. The white jade spider was enraged and roared, and rushed towards the culprit behind Li Su.
"Hiss!"
Li Su's expression remained unchanged, Zama raised his hand and punched.
"winter!"
The fist is very hard.
The sound, like the clash of fine iron, echoed in the narrow mine.
The white jade spider that rushed forward was punched and then staggered backwards as if it was drunk.
The white jade spider, which was blasted back by Li Su's punch, swayed for a moment, only to see a bloody red light cut at the joint of its front foot.
"Pfft!"
One of the forelimbs, dripping with juice, fell off.
"Ouch..."
Like a puppy barking.
White Jade Spider also knew that he had met a ruthless person.
The huge belly sucked in, and a mouthful of sticky spider silk spurted out, covering the narrow mine tunnel.
"do not move!"
Seeing that Xin Ruyin wanted to chase her, Li Su stopped her.
"poisonous."
Li Su poked the spider silk with his sword.
Spider silk contains a nerve-paralyzing toxin, which is more likely to be used in narrow places like mine tunnels.
"Um!"
Xin Ruyin activated the sword energy and shredded the spider's silk.
The escape mine was revealed.
"Walk!"
The two followed the traces left by the white jade spider and explored the depths of the mine.
The deeper we go, the darker we go.
The surrounding fine spider silk is constantly increasing, and some shriveled corpses are wrapped in the spider silk.
It can be seen that the corpse in the spider silk sac is the miner preyed on by the white jade spider.
Li Su and Xin Ruyin also picked up some leftover raw spiritual stones.
"Coming."
Li Su activates the magic sword.
The sword body left only a red light, and then it stabbed the monster behind the cave.
"Ouch!"
Sure enough, the white jade spider lurked behind the cave.
After Li Su and Xin Ruyin entered the cave and were distracted by the situation in the cave, it attacked them from behind.
"Walk!"
Li Su injured the spider but did not kill it, but he knew that the spider was still useful.
In the future, Han Li will rely on this spider to hang the Heavenly Cauldron during his trip to the Chaos Star Sea!
Li Su also didn't know what kind of equivalent heaven-reaching spiritual treasure he could get after Han Li obtained the Xutian Cauldron?
Li Su took Xin Ruyin into the cave.
Another severed limb of the White Jade Spider was left on the ground. It seemed that Li Su had seriously injured him again this time!
Xin Ruyin looked at the cave curiously.
Naturally formed, the place is open.
A white skeleton sitting cross-legged in the cave is very conspicuous. In addition, the ground in the cave is covered with strange lines.
"this?"
Xin Ruyin's eyes widened.
"This is the teleportation array!"
The ancient teleportation array that Li Su and Xin Ruyin had been pursuing so hard appeared before them without reservation.
The accumulation of formations in the land of Yue was not rich, and Xin Ruyin's formations were inherited from Xuanjian Sect.
However, even when Xuanjian Sect dominated the Yue Kingdom, the entire sect was unable to establish an ultra-long-distance teleportation array, because the resource consumption of such a teleportation array could bankrupt a sect.
Rather than piling resources into a teleportation array of little use, the sects in Tiannan Land prefer to use it to cultivate monks.
But Tiannan Land is not without teleportation formations, but most of them are those that can teleport thousands of miles.
Within the Spirit Beast Heaven Pass of the Spirit Beast Mountain where Li Su is located, there is a divided internal teleportation array. The distance of this teleportation array is only a few hundred miles.
Every time the spirit stone is consumed, it is enough to make the spirit beast mountain's flesh ache.
After seeing this formation, Xin Ruyin inevitably showed an expression of obsession.
After a long time, she turned around happily, hugged Li Su, kissed and nibbled: "Really, it's really this kind of ancient teleportation array!"
Li Su knew that Xin Ruyin was addicted to formation and was crazy about it.
Even under Li Su's strong pressure, he put part of his energy on cultivation.
But this is just to resist the body of dragon roar and ensure the balance of yin and yang in the body.
How could she not be surprised when she saw this ancient formation?
"Fantastic!"
Xin Ruyin praised.
"I have to study for a long time..."
Li Su walked to the black-robed skeleton and carefully took in the token.
"Do you know what this is?"
"this?"
Xin Ruyin took the token, looked at it carefully and said, "This should be the 'Great Teleportation Order' that matches the teleportation array."
When the ultra-long-distance teleportation is started, the space will generate great pressure. Without the protection of the Great Teleportation Order, the ancient monk would be directly crushed by the pressure.
"Yes, this is a 'Great Moving Token', not something high-end!"
In Xin Ruyin's eyes, formation is the foundation.
Although the "Great Teleportation Order" has been lost, it can be easily reproduced.
The two carefully explored the cave for several days. Xin Ruyin finally completed the inspection of the entire formation and listed a bunch of spiritual objects needed to repair the formation.
