Immortal Mansion: With mediocre qualifications, I have no choice but to live forever

"I didn't expect that Daoist Zhou's long journey through the streets was not as good as what Daoist Lin got in one day."

Zhao Qi, a sturdy man at the peak of the Spiritualization Realm who had always been hostile to Zhou Yiqiao, finally seized the opportunity and scolded Zhou Yiqiao for a while.

Before Zhou Yiqiao could react, the old man Li Chengxian spoke up to defend him with the look of a good guy.

"Brother Zhao, you are wrong. Although Fellow Daoist Zhou did not directly discover the secret of the mine, he has made great contributions in the past few days by going deep into the market, talking with independent cultivators, and collecting information."

"The five of us each have our own strengths. Only by working together can we uncover the true face of the Shadow Alliance."

After hearing this, Zhou Yiqiao narrowed his eyes, and bowed to Li Chengxian with a fake smile, but his heart had already fallen.

Even though Li Chengxian seemed to be speaking for himself, his words clearly elevated the status of the four independent cultivators to the same level as his own.

If this happened in daily communication, Zhou Yiqiao would certainly not care about Li Chengxian's little thoughts.

But before the four of them left Tianxuan Sect, they solemnly promised Lin Muzhi that they would follow Zhou Yiqiao's command in all actions.

Now Li Chengxian seems to be putting himself on the same level as the other four. Isn't this secretly trying to undermine Zhou Yiqiao?

Although Zhou Yiqiao was unhappy in his heart, he did not show it on the surface.

"How long are you going to keep nagging?"

The cold female cultivator who had never spoken a word wiped the jade sword in her hand and urged with a frown.

During the time when everyone was dispersed, Zhao Qi seemed to have some kind of tacit understanding with Han Yan, and at this moment he immediately agreed.

"Fairy Hanyan is right. Now that we know the secret of the mine, we should act immediately. Otherwise, something unexpected will happen."

Lin Yifeng glanced at Zhao Qi indifferently and said nothing.

But his statement clearly shows that he is inclined to take immediate action.

"In that case, let's get going."

Seeing this, Zhou Yiqiao knew that the overall situation was settled. He could only temporarily suppress his dissatisfaction. He stood up and said in a deep voice.

"The five of us must act carefully when we work together. The security forces outside the mine are quite strong, and we must find the best time to break through."

Everyone nodded in agreement and started to organize their equipment and magic weapons.

As the night deepened, the five people quietly left the restaurant and headed towards the abandoned mine outside the city.

Along the way, they carefully avoided the patrolling Shadow Alliance monks and finally arrived at the mine.

The mine was full of guards, and dozens of Shadow Alliance monks were patrolling back and forth. The atmosphere was very tense.

Zhou Yiqiao and others hid in the dark, observing the situation in the mine.

"There are more than a dozen Nascent Soul cultivators patrolling outside the mine alone. The situation inside the mine is probably even more complicated."

Zhao Qi analyzed in a low voice, his brows furrowed.

"Moreover, judging from the situation, the Shadow Alliance attaches even greater importance to the mine than what Fellow Daoist Lin said. If we act rashly, we may be surrounded."

Han Yan also added.

Then, several people looked at each other and saw a hint of worry in each other's eyes.

"Everyone, I have mastered a skill that can allow us to enter the mine without anyone noticing."

Li Chengxian suddenly spoke at this time, and a hint of pride appeared on his old face.

"Oh? Is there really such a wonderful method?"

When everyone heard this, they were immediately cheered up and their eyes were focused on Li Chengxian, waiting for his explanation.

Li Chengxian slowly raised his right hand and gently stroked the air with his palm.

Suddenly, a ray of white light appeared in the void and quickly gathered around him, forming a palm-sized ball of light, emitting soft fluorescence.

"This treasure is called the Shadow-Hiding Pearl, and I found it by chance in a secret place a few years ago."

"This invisibility bead has the magical effect of concealing your body and isolating your aura. After I activate this invisibility bead, you only need to stand within ten feet of me to hide your body and aura and sneak into the mine."

As soon as Li Chengxian finished speaking, everyone showed surprise, staring at the ball of light in his hand, thinking in their hearts.

"It is really eye-opening that Fellow Daoist Li has such a treasure."

Zhou Yiqiao spoke first, with a look of approval on his face, but he secretly said in his heart.

"This old fox is really hiding his true strengths."

"Without further delay, let's get started."

Zhao Qi was an impatient man. When he saw that there was a way to enter the mine, he immediately urged.

Li Chengxian nodded, took a deep breath, slowly pinched the light ball with both hands, closed his eyes and began to mobilize his magic power.

As he injected his magic power, the ball of light began to rotate slowly, emitting increasingly stronger light.

Everyone only felt a strange wave emanating from the ball of light, enveloping them.

The next moment, their figures and breath seemed to be swallowed up by an invisible force and completely disappeared into the air.

"It's done!"

Li Chengxian opened his eyes, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face, then he waved his hand and led everyone towards the mine.

They passed through the patrolling Shadow Alliance monks and arrived at the entrance of the mine silently like ghosts.

The mine was dark, with only a few oil lamps flickering with faint light.

Corpses lay on the dark cave wall, both men and women, with dishevelled clothes and extremely miserable deaths.

"this......"

Even though they were all experienced gods who had seen the world, they couldn't help but feel a palpitation in their hearts when they saw the cave full of corpses.

"It seems that the Shadow Alliance has really spent a lot of money to obtain the secret of this mine."

Lin Yifeng pointed at a miserable skeleton in the corner and said to everyone.

"The clothes worn by the corpse are the unique clothes of the Jiang family of Cangwu Mountain."

"The Jiang family is considered one of the top forces in the entire northern border of Central Continent. The Shadow Alliance actually dared to kill the Jiang family cultivators. The interests involved are probably more profound than we imagined."

Zhou Yiqiao's eyes were dark, and he had already started thinking about how to escape first in order to save himself.

"At this point, we have no choice but to go deeper to uncover the secrets behind this mine."

Li Chengxian's voice rang out in the darkness, interrupting everyone's thoughts.

After hearing his words, Zhou Yiqiao and others nodded.

"Okay, let's go in without further ado."

Zhao Qi glanced at Han Yan beside him, then took the lead and stood at the front of the team.

The group moved forward again, going deeper into the mine step by step.

The passages in the mine are intricate and complex, like a huge maze. If you are not careful, you will easily get lost.

Fortunately, Li Chengxian had a map obtained from a monk of the Shadow Alliance, so he had a smooth journey and did not encounter any danger.

Finally, after walking for half an hour, the group arrived in front of a huge stone chamber.
