Iron Mine

Ye Cheng stood at the entrance of the black hole, with Ye's wooden sign hanging above the entrance of the cave, and the mining tools such as mining pickaxes around him were thrown outside the cave at will, in a mess, obviously in a hurry when evacuating.

This iron ore mine is a newly discovered mine, and the iron ore content in it is as high as seventy percent, which is already an extremely high-quality mine, and according to the normal mining rate, it can bring Ye Cheng an income of seven or eight thousand taels of silver per month.

Zhao Yingchen was naturally escorted back to the city by the two family knights, and the new breakthrough was injured again, so they could only drag their feet if they stayed.

Zhao Yingchen's return to the Ye family naturally caused a big wave of rendering, and another master of the inner family was born, if it was placed in normal times, no matter which family would have to celebrate it, this is the embodiment of the family heritage.

But now is obviously not the time, and the Ye family immediately became nervous after learning that Ye Cheng went to the mine alone.

After a commotion, a cavalry team of hundreds of people rushed out of the Ye Mansion, causing a burst of dogs to jump in the city, and went straight out of the city.

These Ye Cheng naturally didn't know, at this time he had already held a torch and slowly entered the mine.

The cave is dark, and there is a slot for a torch every few steps, which should be left by the miners to light the mining, and the cave is surrounded by black and red iron ore.

Ye Cheng slapped his palm, and a piece of black-red black iron ore was broken off, and with a gentle pinch, a puff of iron powder was sprinkled.

"Now that ordinary iron weapons are of little use to me, it's time to find a better one."

At this time, he had two long knives hanging on his body, and ordinary iron weapons couldn't withstand his current combat intensity at all, and basically became scrap metal after the first battle, so he was not allowed to carry a few weapons with him, after all, he still relied on knife skills to start.

Suddenly, a black shadow flashed from the corner of the wall in front of him, and Ye Cheng's eyes narrowed slightly

Ye Cheng was just about to catch up, when suddenly a black shadow swooped down from above, and Ye Cheng subconsciously slashed out, and the sword was bright.

With a chirp, the black shadow was directly split in half by the long knife, and Ye Cheng was also stunned, and suddenly sent such a small character to sneak attack?

The black mist was split into two fist-sized balls, and one ball directly rushed towards the torch in Ye Cheng's hand, and the speed was like lightning.

Before Ye Cheng could react, the torch had already been extinguished, Ye Cheng's eyes flashed, and his left hand was directly grabbed in the air, and the black mist was directly grabbed in his hand, and the raging fire directly covered the entire palm.

"Think I can't see clearly if I put out the torch?"

Ye Cheng sneered, if ordinary people suddenly extinguished the torch in the dark environment, they would naturally be panicked, but for Ye Cheng, Xuanyang Gong stepped into the condensation realm, and night vision was already a trivial matter for him.

The black air mass didn't make a sound, and it was directly burned by the internal qi, and it disappeared in smoke.

"It's so weak, even the master of the inner family can be shocked to death at will"

Ye Cheng frowned slightly, what is the use of sending such a small character out, it is completely funny, the ghost thing in the mine is so confident, or really think that there is no one among mortals who can fight against him.

Another black mist hovered at the entrance of the cave in front of him, and the faint black light shone, like a burning black fire mass, Ye Cheng stepped forward and wanted to extinguish it casually, but the black air mass was extremely flexible, and Ye Cheng couldn't catch the air mass for a while.

"He's ...... Are you showing me the way?"

In the darkness, Ye Cheng's eyes glowed crimson, like a light bulb, staring at the black air mass not far in front of him.

He found that as long as he stopped the black air mass, he would stop, and if he acted on his own, the black air mass would go forward, if it wasn't for the cold breath coming from the air, the black air mass would be simply a lantern, carrying Ye Cheng constantly shuttling in the mine.

"Looks like this ghost thinks it's going to kill me"

A cold glint flashed in Ye Cheng's eyes, and he put the knife into the sheath, and directly followed the black air mass in the cave.

Whew

There was a sudden sound of wind in front of him, Ye Cheng's heart tightened, and the internal air in Xuanyang in his body swirled, and suddenly a faint layer of internal qi net was laid on his body, as long as there were ghosts who didn't know whether they were alive or dead, and dared to hit up, they would be burned to death by the internal qi net in an instant.

Stepping into the air, Ye Cheng found that he had walked out of the narrow mine passage and came to the exit hall, but the scene in front of him made his face change slightly.

Hundreds of corpses were gathered in a circle, with a large circular array with a diameter of more than ten meters left in the center, and bright red blood was constantly dripping from the corpses, and a strong bloody aura filled the entire hall.

"Blood Sacrifice!"

This was the first thought that popped into Ye Cheng's heart.

Hundreds of corpses, each with a twisted and hideous face, obviously suffered inhuman abuse before their death, these people had obviously been dead for a long time, but their bodies were constantly dripping blood, and eight blood-colored streams connected to the center of the great circle in the middle.

At this time, Ye Cheng's eyes were firmly fixed on the black-robed figure in the center of the Great Circle, and the eight blood-colored streams circulated in the circular formation, and finally poured into the figure in the center of the Great Circle, making a gurgling sound of devouring things.

"What is the purpose of Your Excellency in bringing me here?"

Ye Chenglang spoke, and the sound was mixed with internal qi gushing out, constantly echoing in the hall, shaking the gravel to fall

He didn't believe that the black-robed man in front of him couldn't understand human speech, even the white ghost in the mine had a consciousness, and it was impossible for the black-robed man who was behind the scenes to be unable to communicate.

The person in front of him obviously has some purpose, otherwise he wouldn't have been attracted here, the loud shout just now, he also has a sense of shock in it, don't pinch him as a soft persimmon.

When the black-robed man heard the voice, he suddenly raised his head, and a withered and bloodless face came into view, and his red eyes made Ye Cheng suspicious.

"If you don't have a sanity, how can it be" Those eyes were obviously full of chaos and rage, and they were by no means the eyes of a sane person.

Ye Cheng's heart was racing, but the ghost thing suddenly flashed over.

boom

Ye Cheng subconsciously took out the knife, the long knife was blazing, and the red line of fire directly crossed a mysterious trajectory in the air, but the black ghost thing was directly hit by the red knife light and flew out.

"Again, what are you kidding, I came here cautiously, just to deal with a thing like you?"

Ye Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then the anger in his heart surged, and he mustered up a lot of strength, and actually smashed it on the cotton, this depressed feeling made him faintly feel like vomiting blood.

He vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't see it clearly, this feeling had been haunting him since he was reborn, even if he was already a master of the Condensation Realm, he was still like a chess piece on a chessboard, being played with at will.

This feeling made him extremely unhappy.

"Since you don't want to say it, then give me death"

Ye Cheng shouted angrily, and no longer thought about talking about these things, he took out the two long knives on his waist, and the crimson Xuanyang internal qi ignited on the knife body, and directly pounced on the black-robed man who smashed on the wall.

The dark-robed man was also a vertical, flying directly into the air, the black-robed robe made a fierce sound, and a cold and treacherous aura suddenly rose.

"Okay, that's what it looks like"

Ye Cheng shouted, his body was even faster, the Xuanyang internal qi in his body was urged to the extreme, the firelight burned all over his body, and in the click, his body suddenly broke through two meters, and his skin was dark black under the red firelight, which was the situation where the black iron body was urged to the extreme.

The black-robed figure burst out with a black forehead dazzling light in the air, and its body swelled suddenly as if it was blowing, and its blood-colored eyes had no emotion

The black light illuminated the entire cave, and the intense black light continued to collapse inward, turning into a huge ball of light of five or six meters.

There was a loud bang, and the man in black exploded directly.

Ye Cheng felt bad when he saw the man in black swelling, but before he could react, a black light wave swept across, and the hall dozens of meters was directly collapsed by a spontaneous explosion.

Bang la blah

A dark palm suddenly stretched out from the rubble, and then a figure with flickering eyes stood up.

Ye Cheng's eyes were cold, and he glanced around, the cave was full of large pieces of fallen rubble, and the entire hall was forcibly widened by dozens of meters, but fortunately, the iron mine was not seriously excavated, so it did not cause a collapse.

"A ghost thing comparable to the condensation of the inner house blew itself up......"

Ye Cheng's face was gloomy, without a happy expression, this battle was unclear, and he blew himself up before he even used his strength.

Suddenly, Ye Cheng's expression froze, and his eyes stared not far ahead

"Who, give me out"

Ye Cheng shouted, the fiery red long knife left his hand, and pierced into the half-human-high boulder not far away with the whirring firelight, and the smoke and dust in the cave suddenly billowed out.

Ye Cheng stared at the smoke and dust in front of him

"Oh, it's late?"

A somewhat lazy voice sounded, the smoke and dust dissipated, and Ye Cheng also saw the figure of the person clearly.

Dressed in a purple robe, about twenty-five or sixteen years old, with eyebrows and sideburns, a handsome face, and a closed paper fan in his hand, he stood casually at the entrance of the mine.

If this dress is in Beining City, I don't know how many girls will be charmed, but appearing in this deep mine cave at this time is indecent.

"Who are you?"

Ye Cheng stared at the purple-clothed man in front of him, the red internal air swirled, and the flames several inches high jumped on his body, like a fire god.

Ye Cheng didn't feel the unique cold aura of ghosts from him, but a more sharp and terrifying aura came out of the body of the person in front of him, like a sharp sword that was unsheathed

The illusion that his body seemed to be cut off made him realize that the guy in front of him was definitely not easy to match.

"Oh, the fire internal qi of the Condensation Realm, there is still a little distance from the Transformation Realm, and the age is only thirty, not bad, when will there be another bloodline in this Beining City?"

The purple-clothed man looked at Ye Cheng, but he was not the slightest nervous, but patted the paper fan and commented to himself.

Seeing that the long knife in Ye Cheng's hand was clenched tightly, with an impatient look on his face, the purple-clothed boy couldn't help but chuckle

"Don't be nervous, I'm not one of those ghosts, relax, relax"

"Who the hell are you and what is the purpose of coming here?"

"Well, everyone I know calls me Zi Gongzi, as for what I'm doing here, I'm naturally here to kill some lonely ghosts."

The young man who claimed to be the boy in purple had a relaxed expression on his face.

"It's just that it seems to have been solved by you, but I accepted your love once"

"Do you know where this ghost thing came from, why did this ghost thing blow itself up," Ye Cheng asked with a frown

"Self-destructed, what's going on?" the purple-clothed boy was also stunned

Ye Cheng then told him about the situation in the hall and the incident of the ghost thing blowing itself up later.

After hearing this, the purple boy frowned slightly, took out a white compass from his arms, pointed his finger, and suddenly a puff of white light rose.

A cat-shaped phantus appeared, sniffed vigorously in the air, then hissed, retracted into the compass again, and said no more.

Ye Cheng looked at the scene in front of him curiously, obviously this was also an extraordinary item, this was the first time he had seen anyone use this kind of thing except for the two broken temple monks.

"It's okay, there is no yin qi left here, it should be the blood sacrifice of the ghost thing, and it was finally exploded by the backlash"

"It's just that those ghosts are so bold, they dare to sacrifice blood near Beining City, something is wrong, something is wrong......"

The boy in purple muttered to himself

"Who sent you" Ye Cheng also saw that the man in front of him was obviously not hostile, but he still continued to ask, this guy's origin is obviously extraordinary.

"Who sent me, I can't say it for the time being, but it's you who ......" The light in the eyes of the purple-clothed man moved slightly, and he took out a black token from his arms and threw it at Ye Cheng.

"Anyway, I'll give you a favor, if you want to know more, come to us with this token"

Ye Cheng caught the token, the token cast in black iron was cold, surrounded by gold edges, and a black mandala flower was engraved on the bottom of the token.

"Okay, since it's already over here, I'm going to leave too, I hope you're still alive next time, my Zi Gongzi doesn't recommend people easily"

As soon as the figure flashed, the young man who called himself Zi Gongzi lost his figure.

"What a quick light work"

Ye Cheng's eyes condensed slightly, looking at the mine path of the black hole, and his heart was shocked.

"Transfiguration Realm, at least a master of Transfiguration Realm, otherwise it would not be possible to put so much pressure on me, and I am still a member of a certain organization, and this token is some kind of qualification certificate?"

Ye Chengmo rubbed the black in his hand, for some reason, he always felt faintly familiar with this token.
