Chapter 39: The Battle for the Change of Fate I

After noon, Zhao San sat cross-legged at the entrance of the mine as usual, the day's mining task had already been completed ahead of schedule, he was half meditating and half recuperating, lazily squandering his time, but there was still a little loss that was difficult to hide under his calm face.

In the depths of the mine, in a seven-foot stone room, Wei Zhen sat in a corner, his whole body did not move, his dark face was like a cloud of sweat, his expression was like sinking iron, as if he was enduring indescribable pain. Zhao Da and Zhao Er squatted quietly aside.

At this moment, in Wei Zhen's body, a trace of silver-like spiritual power was constantly entwined and twisted up and down the little finger bone of his right hand under the control of his mental power, as if he was delicately pondering a small jade artifact, and the pain was like ten thousand ants biting and impacting every nerve in his body, and because his spiritual power was close to the fire attribute, it produced a burning stinging pain.

With the operation of spiritual power, subtle changes gradually appeared in the milky white bone surface, but this little change was not obvious and difficult for people to notice.

After doing this for half an hour, Wei Zhen suddenly stopped, and the spiritual power and mental power in his body were consumed at the same time. Undeterred, he continued to meditate to restore his spiritual and mental powers, and after half an hour, he continued to perform the bone refining method as before. After stopping like this, until the sound of the gong at the end of the mine sounded, Wei Zhenfang ended his bone refining cultivation this time.

Although he was mentally prepared every time, every sacrifice made him feel miserable.

"Refining bones" is to use one's own spiritual power with mental power to refine the bones of the whole body as much as possible, this kind of sacrifice is very terrifying to the consumption of spiritual power, and at the same time, it is also a big burden on the mental power of the person who sacrifices. So three months later, he was only able to complete the sacrifice of the five fingers of his right hand. At this moment, from the outside, there is no abnormality in the five fingers of his right hand, if Wei Zhen successfully advances to the spirit master and can look at himself with mental power, he will find that the five finger phalanges that have been sacrificed have a luster jade texture, which is the effect of bone refining. In addition, he unexpectedly discovered that the finger bones that had been sacrificed could actually be integrated with a trace of spiritual power.

This is his last sacrifice in the Fire Dark Mine, and someone will send him to Broken Tooth City early tomorrow morning to participate in the battle to change his life, and the mine owner Mu Zhanying has finally complied with the previous agreement.

This night, Wei Zhen did not rest, and meditated until dawn, although the three brothers of the Zhao family lay down, in fact, none of them really fell asleep.

As soon as the sky was brightened, a slave soldier walked into the grass hut where the four of them usually rested and told Wei Zhen that he could go.

Zhao Da, Zhao Er, and Zhao Three brothers hugged him one by one, and the four of them were suddenly silent. This farewell, I'm afraid that there will be no day to see each other in this life, this is the idea that the four of them have in their hearts.

It wasn't until Wei Zhen walked out of the grass shed that Zhao Er finally couldn't help but take a step forward and shouted: "Little brother Wei Zhen, no matter the ends of the world, don't forget our three brothers!"

This straight-hearted rough man couldn't help but burst into tears at this time.

Wei Zhen's heart was hot, he only nodded heavily, turned around and followed the slave soldier away.

Wei Zhen was not the only one who participated in the battle to change his life in the Huoyin Mine, and there would also be some qualified people among the slave troops stationed in the mine.

Wei Zhen stepped directly onto a chariot pulled by a mammoth beast, but this time he didn't have to enter the iron cage.

In the hazy skylight, at a glance, there were about a dozen such chariots, and it can be deduced that the number of participants was about five or six hundred.

Wei Zhen's eyes swept around his body, and he found that the people who were riding with him were all from the slave army in terms of posture, which meant that these people had joined the slave army early from the day they sold themselves into slavery and received formal training.

These people looked at him with a distinctly different gaze than the other, with undisguised contempt and disdain. He and the other person were very conspicuous in the crowd, one was covered in mineral scraps, the upper body was **, and only a cloth belt was tied around the waist to cover the body. One has a thin complexion, a straw hat in a sackcloth, and a variety of herbs on his body.

At this time, Wei Zhen looked at the person wearing a sackcloth and straw hat from a distance of three or five people, and the person happened to look over at this time.

The other party was a young man who looked similar to him, Wei Zhen saw that there was a basket hanging from his waist behind him, he only felt a little familiar, and suddenly remembered that the basket was used for herbs.

Could it be that he came from the Rhino Medicine Farm?" Wei Zhen secretly guessed. The other party's gaze quickly shifted away, showing a very shy and shy appearance, and his expression seemed to be a little girlish shy.

Along the way, no one in the chariot spoke, and everyone knew very well in their hearts that the person sitting next to them would be an enemy in a life-and-death struggle within a day.

In the battle of changing lives, it is your own fate that is changed, but it is the lives of others that are taken, and the reality is cold and unforgiving.

At sunset, a mighty procession of chariots galloped into the gates of Broken Tooth.

Five years later, Wei Zhen didn't expect that he would return to Broken Tooth City in this way.

After a hurried night's rest, in the early morning of the second day, the horn of the assembly suddenly sounded, and Wei Zhen, who had returned from the Fire Dark Mine, was taken to the only point field in Broken Tooth City.

On the platform, the city lord Mu Zhanhu sat in the lower position, and the main seat sat a half-hundred-year-old man who looked like a housekeeper, this old man's name was Mu Xiaosheng, and he was a supervisor of the Hanshan Mu clan in the Gouluo realm, and was responsible for supervising the slave selection in Broken Tooth City - "The battle to change his life" was a saying among the slaves, and the Yu Mu clan chose young slaves and selected the best ones to cultivate.

The location of the battle to change his life was chosen in a big mountain called Wild Bear Gully on the periphery of the Rhino Mountain Range, which ranged for hundreds of miles, the terrain was dangerous, and there were many poisonous insects and beasts in the mountain.

The reason is very simple, this time the total number of people in Broken Tooth City participating in the battle of changing lives reached 3,000, but in the end, only 30 people could win, and the chance of elimination was higher than ever.

According to the rules, each participant will be issued a special identity nameplate, the identity nameplate can be dripped into a drop of their own blood, after killing or defeating the opponent to obtain the nameplate, can be forced out of the blood of others at any time, into their own second drop of blood, and the person who loses the nameplate regardless of life or death, will be counted as failure.

When the three thousand slaves each incorporated a drop of blood into their identity plates, they placed a two-foot square, smooth mirror-like jade plate in front of Mu Xiaosheng's case, and a clear light suddenly flashed, and countless small points of light were densely displayed on it, each of which represented a slave.

"Can you start?" Mu Zhanhu asked cautiously and respectfully when he saw this.

"Hmm!" Mu Xiaosheng bowed lightly.

The sound of the fierce horn suddenly sounded with his command, and the long sound instantly spread throughout the entire Broken Tooth City.

Wei Zhen picked up a fine iron dagger and a small bag of rations under his feet, and when he squatted down, he found that a few people around him had begun to look at him with malicious eyes.

Wei Xin sneered in his heart, turned around and ignored these people, and took advantage of the fact that the sky was still dark, and followed behind everyone and ran towards the outside of Broken Tooth City, the real killing would not begin until a day later.

Broken Tooth City is a hundred miles away from the designated battlefield Wild Bear Gully, and there will be 20,000 slave troops dispatched by the Haiqi Kingdom to guard it along the way, and the time is limited to one day, and after one day, those who have not arrived on time will be hunted and killed on the spot, and the outside of the Wild Bear Gully has long been heavily guarded by other slave legions, many of which have spirit masters, to prevent those who participate in the war from fleeing and cheating.

For this reason, the Haiqi Nation invested 50,000 troops, and the same thing was being done at the same time among the many vassal states belonging to the Mu clan in the Chidi Realm. From this, it can be seen that Hanshan Mushi does attach great importance to the matter of selecting the best slaves.

Wei Zhen followed the established route and galloped all the way. He carefully estimated that if he ran at full speed, he should be able to enter the wild bear ditch in the middle of the night today, where the forest is deep and the grass is thick, the terrain is complicated, and it is easy to hide. Before that, he didn't expect that the number of people participating in the "War of Changing Lives" would be so large.

"Good guy, you're running fast!"

Just as Wei Zhen was in a hurry, a young voice suddenly came from behind him.

Wei Zhen subconsciously pulled out the black stick on his waist and held it in his right hand, grabbed the fine iron dagger with his left hand, his body suddenly accelerated, and then he reflexively stood firmly.

Seven or eight meters away, a young man with a thin body and a seemingly similar age to him was rushing straight ahead. The man was dressed in a tattered slave uniform, his face was covered with dirt, and a pair of thief eyes were glaring around.

When the young man saw him turn around, he also stopped, waved his hands, and said with a smile: "Brother, I have no ill intentions. ”

Wei Zhen stared at his every move very vigilantly, and did not answer, seeing that someone was catching up with him from time to time.

The young man smiled again, showed a mouthful of white teeth, and said, "My name is Du Xiaoqiu, what is your name?"

"Wei Zhen. Wei Zhen responded indifferently, and then he noticed that there were two or three more ration sachets hanging around Du Xiaoqiu's waist, and his eyes suddenly became a little sharp.

Du Xiaoqiu looked at him and immediately explained: "Hehe, I just took advantage of the chaos to pick up a few stupid ones. ”

"Why don't we fight together?" Du Xiaoqiu continued to say calmly. "According to the rules of participating in the war, three people are allowed to form a team and fight together, at least the chances of winning will be greater. ”

"I've always liked to be alone. Wei Zhen was slightly moved by his proposal, but he didn't dare to trust him, so he directly refused.

"Okay, let's go our separate ways, maybe we will meet again!" Du Xiaoqiu grinned, made a grimace, turned his body, and continued to run forward, throwing a small bag back in his hand.

Wei Zhen was stunned and stretched out his hand to catch it, and when he was about to open his mouth to shout, Du Xiaoqiu had already run away.

The sky was getting brighter, and there were figures flashing nearby one after another, Wei Zhen hesitated for a moment, and chased in the direction where Du Xiaoqiu's figure disappeared.
