Chaos God's Nest

Regarding the evil spirits, some people say that they are not real living beings, but a trace of evil thoughts left in the body of a living being after death. Once the evil spirits awaken, they can control the powerful body of the previous host, and most of them are cruel and bloodthirsty. Once they are born, they will inevitably cause chaos in the world. At that time, countless strong people will be needed to suppress them. Otherwise, it is very likely to cause the death of living beings.

In the next few days, Yan Xiaohuang and the other two started their own mining journey. The three had a clear division of labor: Yan Xiaohuang was responsible for breaking stones, the girl in Lan Qun was responsible for Zhen Ling, and the man in tight clothes was responsible for transporting soil.

It can only be said that the three of them had extremely good luck. In just less than half a month, they had already dug nearly two thousand five hundred kilograms of spirit stones, and they were all of good quality. If they continued at this pace, they would soon be able to achieve the target of one thousand kilograms per person as mentioned by Zhang Laita.

At the same time, after spending some time together, Yan Xiaohuang gradually got to know the temperaments of the two.

The girl in the blue dress is named Lan Qi. She is very lively and a typical active person, but she can only do that if there is a goal or a task driving her.

As for the tight-fitting man, his name was Lan Ling. He lied that he was Lan Qi's twin brother. Compared to his sister Lan Qi, he was calmer and slower to warm up. He didn't talk much at first, but after he became familiar with Yan Xiaohuang, he started to speak more.

After a few more days, with the unremitting efforts of the three people, they finally collected the 3,000 kilograms of spirit stones that needed to be handed over, so everyone felt more relaxed than before.

"oops!"

Lan Qi'er sat down on the ground, looking at Yan Xiaohuang who was still swinging his pickaxe to dig for spiritual stones, and couldn't help but say, "The quota is enough! Why don't you take a break?"

"Are you talking to me?" Upon hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang stopped what he was doing, turned around and asked.

"What do you think?" Lan Qi'er was speechless and rolled her eyes at Yan Xiaohuang.

In response, Yan Xiaohuang smiled and replied, "There are still more than ten days before the delivery target. Since we have nothing to do anyway, we might as well dig a few more spiritual stones. Besides, who knows, we might even be able to dig up some spiritual treasures!"

After more than ten days of mining, Lan Qi'er was no longer as interested in digging out spiritual treasures as she was at the beginning. So after hearing Yan Xiaohuang's answer, she said unhappily, "Come on! We've been digging here for so many days! We haven't even seen a single spiritual treasure. What are you dreaming about!"

"hey-hey!"

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang smiled, then shook his head and said, "Not at all! As the saying goes, if you give up halfway, even rotten wood cannot be broken; if you keep on carving, even gold and stone can be carved! As long as I persist, I believe I will dig up a spiritual treasure one day!"

"Tsk! Then just take your time digging! I need to take a break anyway!"

Lan Qi'er scoffed at Yan Xiaohuang's words and didn't believe them at all. Then she turned around and said to her brother Lan Ling, "Brother, don't worry about him. Come and rest with me for a while!"

Hearing this, Lan Ling smiled and replied, "You take a rest! I'm not tired! Brother Yuan, I'll help you!"

After saying that, Lan Ling quickly walked towards Yan Xiaohuang and helped him dig up the spirit stones.

Hearing this, Lan Qier pouted, then stopped talking and began to rest on her own.

At the same time, the next moment, a violent shaking was felt in the mine, and a scream suddenly came from a distance.

"what!"

"It's an evil spirit! Someone has dug out an evil spirit! Run!"

Hearing this, the three of them looked gloomy, then looked at each other and ran out of the pit without saying a word.

Rumble!

As large areas of raw rocks collapsed, endless black gas rolled out from a corridor on the far right of the pit. Then, many miners fled frantically with expressions of fear on their faces.

Yan Xiaohuang and others were lucky. The corridor they were in was a newly opened corridor, and it was also far away from the corridor where the accident happened, so they escaped as soon as possible.

But the other people in the pit were in a miserable state. Many of them did not even have time to escape and were ruthlessly swallowed up by the strange black gas. They saw their bodies shriveling up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then it was as if all the blood and essence were drained from their bodies, and they turned into mummies. The scene was very creepy.

"what happened?"

An elder from the Tianlei Sect stationed at the mine rushed over after hearing the noise. When he saw the black air filling the pit, his face immediately darkened.

There have been basically no incidents since this vein began to be mined mechanically. Why did it appear so suddenly and so serious this time?

At that moment, the elder of the Tianlei Sect went into the pit without saying a word.

Seeing this, many people showed joy on their faces. They thought that all the people of Tianlei Sect practiced a powerful magic, which was Tianlei Zhengfa. Thunder magic was extremely strong and masculine, which was just the nemesis of this kind of evil spirit. Therefore, with this elder taking action, it would be easy to get rid of the evil spirit.

Just when everyone had settled down, a miserable cry suddenly came from the pit. Hearing this sound, everyone panicked again, because the person who made the sound was the elder of Tianlei Sect who had just entered the pit.

The cultivation level of the elder from the Tianlei Sect was not low. He was a genuine great cultivator in the ancient martial arts realm. Who would have thought that he would die in there within just a few breaths. This made everyone present feel extremely panicked.

"Quick! Quickly inform the other elders of the sect that an evil spirit has appeared! Send strong men here to suppress it immediately!" A guarding disciple shouted immediately upon seeing the situation.

The next moment, the other guarding disciples also took out the sect's jade slips for transmitting messages, and then quickly notified everyone of what had happened here.

Not long after, eight or nine divine rainbows were seen rushing towards this side from the sky. The people who landed on the ground were all the elders with relatively strong cultivation in the Tianlei Sect.

Among these Tianlei Sect elders, the leader was a white-haired old man dressed in blue robes. Yan Xiaohuang secretly observed his aura and thought he should be the strongest among them, having already stepped half a step into the Ranwu Realm.

"What's going on? How could such evil spirits be unearthed out of the blue?" The white-haired elder stepped forward and asked a disciple on guard.

"Reporting to Elder Zeng, I don't know the specific situation! I just suddenly heard a scream, and then a large number of miners died inside! I think it must be an evil spirit that has come into the world!" The disciple on guard hurriedly replied after hearing this.

From the words of the guarding disciple, it can be heard that the white-haired elder should be surnamed Zeng. And seeing that the guarding disciple has an extremely respectful look, the status of this elder Zeng in the Tianlei Sect should not be low.

After hearing the disciple's answer, Elder Zeng pondered for a moment, then looked inside the pit and asked the guarding disciple again, "Where is Elder Yin Qingtian?"

“Elder Yin has already gone down! It’s just…it’s just…”

"Just what?" Seeing that his disciple's answer was a little hesitant, Elder Zeng hurriedly asked.

"It's just that not long after Elder Yin went down, a scream came from the pit. It sounded very much like him. I'm afraid he has already..."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Elder Zeng's expression immediately became even more gloomy.

It seems that the Tianlei Zhengfa practiced by his Tianlei Sect is the nemesis of all evil spirits. Even if the evil spirit's cultivation level is much higher than that of Elder Yin, the latter should not have died so tragically at his hands.

"You guys arrange these miners first, and I and a few elders will go and take a look first!" After thinking for a long time, Elder Zeng gave the order.

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, the guarding disciple gathered all the surviving miners without saying a word. Then, under his arrangement, Yan Xiaohuang and others returned to the dungeon of Tianlei Sect again.

After the miners left, Elder Zeng turned around and looked at the other elders of the Tianlei Sect. Then, without saying a word, they dived into the pit filled with endless black air.

Inside the dungeon.

Yan Xiaohuang was still in shock at this moment. Others could not see clearly what was happening inside the pit, but as the person with the highest cultivation level among the crowd at that time, he could naturally see it clearly through the black fog.

It was not an evil spirit at all, but a silver-haired monster with six wings on its back and a triangular head, which looked more like a human than an ape. The creature had no nose or ears and looked extremely creepy. It opened its bloody mouth and swallowed Elder Yin in one gulp.

"What are you thinking about?"

Seeing Yan Xiaohuang like this, Lan Qier asked curiously.

She didn't see what the so-called evil spirit looked like, and she only heard that someone had died in it, so she wasn't that scared.

On the other side, after hearing Lan Qier's words, Lan Ling also turned his gaze to Yan Xiaohuang who was standing beside him.

In response, Yan Xiaohuang just shook his head slowly and said, "Nothing!" Then he stopped talking.

In fact, Yan Xiaohuang was thinking whether he should go and have a look again. With his current strength, this so-called prison and restrictions could not trap him at all. But he couldn't help but feel a little worried. After all, he had seen the strength of the strange creature.

Curiosity kills the cat, Yan Xiaohuang naturally understood this truth, but for some reason, he just had an urge to take another look. His intuition told him that the origin of that strange creature must be not simple, and from the look of it, it seemed that it did not want to leave the mine, and it was obvious that it was guarding something.

Yan Xiaohuang speculated that it was most likely some kind of heaven-defying magical treasure. Of course, it could also be some kind of rare magical medicine or something. In any case, it must be an extraordinary thing that could make such a powerful and strange creature bow down to guard it.

After hesitating for a long time, Yan Xiaohuang finally decided to go and take a look. After all, he had the Golden Crow Temple, so the worst that could happen was that he could just escape into it.

Thinking of this, Yan Xiaohuang also secretly glanced at the Lan brothers and sisters not far away. Coincidentally, one of them was resting and the other was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed to practice. So taking this opportunity, Yan Xiaohuang flashed out of the cell.

At the same time, considering that he might be discovered by the two after he left, and thus make a loud noise and wake up the disciples who were guarding him, Yan Xiaohuang also used a secret method to conjure up a puppet that looked exactly like himself to guard there.

What Yan Xiaohuang didn't know was that the moment after he left, Lan Ling, who was sitting cross-legged in practice, suddenly opened his eyes.

Looking at the direction where Yan Xiaohuang left, Lan Ling narrowed her eyes slightly. After a moment, she glanced at Lan Qier who was sleeping beside her, and then secretly followed Yan Xiaohuang out of the cell.

No one knew who leaked the news, but in less than half a day, the news that a powerful evil spirit had been unearthed from the Tianlei Sect's spiritual mine spread far and wide.

Upon learning of this, all the sects and families in the surrounding area also sent a group of strong men to the scene. Because time was short, most of them were second-rate strong men in the Daowu Realm and the Ranwu Realm. As for the top masters in the Shenwu Realm and the Xianwu Realm, they had not yet been dispatched.

Although on the surface these powerful men from the sects and families came under the banner of helping the Tianlei Sect to eliminate evil spirits, secretly, they all had their own ulterior motives.

The appearance of a powerful evil spirit just proves that a powerful cultivator was buried or died here. It is well known that when ancient powerful people died, they often carried extremely rare spiritual treasures or immortal medicines, and it is obvious that these people came for the spiritual treasures or immortal medicines.

At this moment, a group of forces and strong men from the Central Plains had already gathered outside the Tianlei Sect's mine. Although these people appeared to be righteous and awe-inspiring on the surface, their eyes were actually filled with covetousness for the unknown magical treasures and elixirs in the mine.

The same was naturally true for Yan Xiaohuang, so he casually found an identity as a cover-up. However, his acting skills were a bit poor, which was very obvious to the people of Tianlei Sect. However, because of his powerful strength and mysterious origin, no one dared to provoke him easily.

At this time, Yan Xiaohuang had found a set of Taoist clothes from somewhere. He looked like a charlatan, and his every move and gesture showed an old-fashioned air.

"I wonder who your master is? Where are you from? And what brings you to our Tianlei Sect?" Seeing Yan Xiaohuang's sudden arrival, an elder of the Tianlei Sect stepped forward and asked.

"Wulian Tianzun! I am Wude Zun! I learned from an unparalleled master in Taichu Central Plains, named Wuliang Taoist! Because my master sensed that there would be evil spirits causing trouble here in recent days, he sent me here to subdue the evil spirits!" Hearing the other party's question, Yan Xiaohuang replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, his words full of confidence in subduing the evil spirits.

Upon hearing this, all the elders of the Tianlei Sect couldn't help but look at each other, and everyone's eyes were filled with confusion.

"This... May I ask which sect your master, Taoist Wuliang, is from? Why have we never heard of him?" An elder of the Tianlei Sect stepped forward and asked again.

"presumptuous!"

Hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang pretended to be furious, and then a strong aura surged out of his body, which pushed the Tianlei Sect elder who asked the question back several steps.

"Do you think you can ask about my master's name? If it weren't for the fact that your Tianlei Sect has benefited the lives of all living beings over the years, why would he send me here to help you?"

"this..."

Seeing Yan Xiaohuang's righteous look, the elders of Tianlei Sect also looked embarrassed.

The other party's words were obviously a cover-up. Besides, his Tianlei Sect was already full of masters, so why did he need others to help him and others to avoid disaster?

But there was no way, the other party was quite powerful, if it was true as he said, wouldn't it be an inexplicable offense to a top powerhouse? Naturally, everyone in the Tianlei Sect didn't dare to gamble.
