It would be good if Lv Ke did not say anything. Now that he said it, Yun Luoyou even more so wanted to go and take a look.
She had already decided that when she understood what was going on with this Immortal Spirit Protolith, she would think of a way to escape from the Nine Cauldrons Sect and head towards the Flying Star Sect.
The more secretive a place was, the more secrets there were.
No matter what world, no matter what time, this was the truth.
With Flying Star Sect so tightly guarded, she wouldn't believe it even if she said that there was no secret.
As the flying boat flew forward, people from the Nine Cauldrons Sect would come out to look at them everyday.
Other than Yun Luoyou who would occasionally talk to Lv Ke, the dozens of people on the deck basically did not communicate at all.
It was as if everyone knew that they were here to send themselves to their deaths, so they were not angry at all. The oppressive atmosphere made Yun Luoyou very uncomfortable.
The flying boat flew for three days and two nights. On the evening of the third day, it stopped in a cove.
Surrounding him was a tall and steep mountain range. At a glance, he could only see a dark gray rock. There wasn't a speck of green here and there, and it gave off a heavy feeling.
Under the escort of a Nine Cauldrons Sect disciple, Yun Luoyou walked down the flying boat with everyone. When his feet stepped on the ground, he felt that the quality of the ground was different from all the other places.
Yun Luoyou used his strength to grind them, yes, the strength of the soil was indeed strong.
A path opened up at the col, it seemed to be the entrance to the mine.
The disciples of the Nine Cauldrons Sect were suppressing the disciples guarding this place as they stood at the entrance. When they saw the disciples of the flying boat descending, they did not take even half a step away, and instead waited for the disciples of the flying boat to escort them over.
"There are a total of thirty people. They are all sent up by the various clans. Fellow disciples, please count them."
Of course there would be thirty of them, but why did a woman send them?
It was not that they looked down on women, but in terms of physical strength. Women and men were born with differences, and although they both had Spirit Sovereign, under the situation where they were suppressing cultivation level, women would definitely not be able to compete with men in physical strength.
The fact that every clan spent money to find people to replace their disciples would occasionally happen, and the disciples of Nine Cauldrons Sect were all well aware of it.
The Nine Cauldrons Sect disciple who escorted them over laughed: "Senior Brother, this person has reached the cultivation level. Before Sect was released, there was no rule saying that we do not want women.
As he spoke, he passed over a Jade Bottle that was filled with pill s.
The man kept it quietly and nodded, "If that's the case, then stay."
"There are exactly thirty of them. The numbers are correct. Brothers, it has been hard on you."
"It's not hard, it's not hard. It's hard for senior brothers to guard the mines." Since the match has started, then Junior shall return to Sect and report this matter. "
The flying boat soared into the sky, quickly disappearing into the sky.
Yun Luoyou and the others were brought by the disciples that were guarding the place into the mines.
The Immortal Spirit Protolith's vein was buried quite deep, so entering through the entrance was a long tunnel.
The tunnel was so dry that even when he breathed, there seemed to be no water, making his throat hurt.
After a while, the tunnel began to slant downward.
Yun Luoyou released the Spiritual Sense without batting an eyelid, and started to observe the Immortal Spirit Protolith's vein.
She discovered that the true location of the vein was deep underground.
The tunnel was slanted down at an angle of five to six miles before it reached the real mining site.
The passageway within the mining site was bumpy and not too wide. It could only accommodate three to four people in parallel.
Perhaps it was because the stone walls were too hard, but the entire mining site did not have a large area. It was not even as long as the passageway and was only about three to four miles long.
However, even if there was only a small distance, the road was filled with bones.
It was likely that those mining people from before would not be able to escape their fate of dying here.
It's just that Yun Luoyou still didn't know what this Immortal Spirit Protolith really looked like up till now.
Furthermore, she had used the Spiritual Sense to scan the walls of the mine repeatedly, but was unable to find anything.
Very strange indeed.
Five or six kilometers was a long way to travel, and these were all cultivator s.
Before Yun Luoyou could even sort out the sequence of events, he had already followed everyone to the mining site.
The disciples of the Nine Cauldrons Sect told them to stop and gather together to give them a lecture.
"Since everyone is here, you should know what to do."
"Although Nine Cauldrons Sect has every family providing people to mine, at the same time, they have also given each family sufficient benefits. In exchange for benefits, Nine Cauldrons Sect does not treat each family unfairly."
"The Immortal Spirit Protolith produced here will be directly provided to the Flying Star Sect. It has a lot to do with it."
"If something went wrong, not to mention your families, even Nine Cauldrons Sect wouldn't be able to afford it."
"Of course, Nine Cauldrons Sect is not unreasonable. Everyone, you can mine here for a year at any time, so if anyone is able to dig out a piece of Immortal Spirit Protolith within a year, they can leave at any time."
"If we don't dig out the Immortal Spirit Protolith within a year, we must stay in this mining area for a full year. After a year, Nine Cauldrons Sect will also allow all of you to leave."
Yun Luoyou frowned as he heard this.
Lv Ke had said before, if they had to mine here for a year, they would lose all their cultivation level s and become cripples. Since Nine Cauldrons Sect was so well-spoken, why didn't they ask their people to leave earlier?
Moreover, if they were to really let them leave after a year, then where did all these corpses in the mine come from?
Yun Luoyou remained silent and secretly paid attention to the surrounding situation.
At this time, the disciples of Nine Cauldrons Sect took out a crystal for them to see: "This is the Immortal Spirit Protolith, if you want to dig them out from this mining area, consider it as having completed the mission."
The crystal was about the size of a fist. It did not look too sparkling or transparent. Instead, it had a dark gray color and looked somewhat ancient.
Only, Yun Luoyou had extended his Spiritual Sense over, inside and out. He carefully checked it over and over again, and no matter how he looked at it, it looked like there was a random corner that a rock was dug out of.
The only difference was that this Immortal Spirit Protolith contained spirit energy s, and all the stones in the mining area, spirit energy s were gone. Even if she tried to explore inside the stone wall, she couldn't find any that contained spirit energy s.
Yun Luoyou's anxious eyebrows furrowed even more. This was not right, it was completely wrong.
After the Nine Cauldrons Sect disciples finished speaking, they left, leaving the mining group in the mining area.
They were unable to leave. After looking at each other for a few moments, they all walked away, and each of them found a place to start considering how to mine.
Because they had conversed on the flying boat, Lv Ke and Yun Luoyou's relationship was not bad. Seeing that everyone was running deeper into the mines while Yun Luoyou was still standing in his original position, Lv Ke couldn't help but ask: "Yun Luoyou, why are you still here? Hurry up and find a place, otherwise we'll be finished here. "
