Chapter 4: The Demon Beast Strikes
I have been mining in the mine for more than ten days, and there are fifteen miners in the mine, except for me who is a little ghost double realm, Song Yu is a little ghost six realm, and the others are all little ghost five realms. I secretly tried to absorb the power of the Netherworld directly from the low-level Nether Ore, and found that it really could. But I didn't dare to absorb it aggressively, for fear of causing trouble, and I didn't use any of the remaining four low-level Nether Pills, and kept them in storage bags.
A month passed quickly, I still didn't control myself, and secretly absorbed a lot of the Netherworld power in the Netherworld Ore, and promoted from the Ghost Dual Realm to the Little Ghost Triple Realm, Song Yu saw that I was improving so fast, thinking that I was about to reach the Triple Realm, plus four low-level Nether Pills, I was able to improve the realm, but I was still amazed.
Each person handed over five hundred low-grade Nether Ores and obtained five low-grade Nether Pills. The middle-aged man surnamed Li saw that there was no middle-grade nether ore to hand in, so he did not send any more miners, and concluded that the mine was a low-grade ore vein, and he was very disappointed in his heart. I gave another low-grade Nether Pill to Song Yu, and there were still eight left in the storage bag. Song Yu was a little embarrassed, and gave in vigorously, and I said: "Brother Song, you can improve quickly, and you can protect me well, do you think this is the truth?." Seeing me say this, Song Yu nodded helplessly and accepted it.
"Brother Song, how long will it take for you to ascend to the Sevenfold Realm of Little Ghosts?" I asked.
"One year, that's enough." Song Yu said affirmatively.
"If all my low-level Nether Pills are given to you, will it be enough for half a year?" I asked.
"Theoretically, that's the case, but Brother Xiaojiu, you gave it to me, what about you? This is a no-no. Song Yu seemed a little angry.
I saw that Song Yu was really angry, so I arched my hand and said, "Brother Song, the younger brother knows that he is wrong." ”
"Brother Xiaojiu, you have already helped me a lot, it would be unwise for you to give up your own cultivation and entrust your life to others. I think that at the beginning, in order to enter the Qingying Sect, I gave all my belongings to Ye Xiaoshi, the slut, and finally put myself in, but now that I think about it, it is too stupid, the so-called asking for others is better than asking for myself, and this is all I say, and I will not do this thing that ruins my future in the future. Song Yu said solemnly.
"The younger brother has been taught, and he must remember Brother Song's mantra today." At this moment, I confirmed in my heart that Song Yu was indeed a friendly person, and I wanted to tell him the secret that I could absorb the Netherworld Qi in the ore, but just as I was about to speak, I suddenly found that there was a demon beast that looked like a pangolin not far away rushing towards us, the fivefold realm of little ghosts.
Song Yu pushed me away and punched the pangolin's body, and the demon beast was knocked back a few steps by his punch.
"Xiao Jiu, go quickly, go and call someone! Fast! Song Yu shouted.
I quickly woke up from my panic and ran towards the other miners, shouting as I ran, "There are monsters, come and help!" "In less than a quarter of an hour, more than a dozen miners surrounded the pangolin, and I hid three feet behind them alone, lest I be accidentally injured by the monster. Everyone, you punch me and kick me, but it doesn't seem to hurt or itch when you hit the demon beast, and the steel-like skin protects its body tightly. Everyone's ordinary fists and feet seem to contain great strength, and they have been fighting for a quarter of an hour, no matter how strong the protection is as strong as steel, it can't stand up to many people, the eyes of the demon beast are beaten with blood, and the skin is also beaten to pieces, leaving only a corpse of a demon beast on the ground.
The miners quickly skinned the monster beast and roasted it directly, and the whole mine was filled with a rich smell of meat, and the greedy mouths flowed.
Song Yu broke a piece of demon beast's thigh meat for me, and I took a big bite, my mouth was full of oil, but it was very delicious, and the taste was endless.
"Little Brother Jiu, how does this ironclad beast taste? This is a must in the mine, the meat is fat but not greasy, and it melts in the mouth. Song Yu said with a smile while eating.
As I ate, I replied, "Brother Song, it tastes great." Then I changed my words and asked, "I see that your fists and feet are infinitely powerful, and this ironclad beast is so durable, it really opens my eyes, is there a secret in this that I don't know?" ”
"Brother Xiaojiu, you haven't cultivated outside, so it's normal that you don't know. Our fists and feet seem to be infinitely powerful, because we have all practiced the exercises, but they are not into the stream, generally there are exercises in the realm of small ghosts, it is very common outside, and it is sold everywhere, the main effect is copper skin and iron bones, strengthening the limbs of the body, but in the face of absolute strength, no matter how strong the exercises are, it is useless, and a random ghost soldier realm can break my defense with a finger. The skin of this ironclad beast is also similar to the effect of our exercises, and it is only useful for the little ghost realm. You have also seen that this ironclad beast only has the fivefold realm of little ghosts, and there are more than a dozen of us, and it took a quarter of an hour to besiege it before killing it, so if you want to kill the other party in the same realm, there is no other way than relying on the number of people, unless it is a sneak attack, or there is a slight possibility. I am one level higher than it, it is not difficult to defeat it, but it takes all my strength to kill it. If I were a little ghost in the sevenfold realm, higher than its twofold realm, it would not be difficult to kill it. Song Yu said patiently.
I nodded silently, and everyone in the cave was talking, laughing, and eating, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the entire roasted ironclad beast was wiped out, leaving only a pile of skeletons.
From the chats of other miners, I learned that some people, like me, were sold here to work as miners, and some people felt that it was difficult to promote their strength, so they sold themselves in exchange for the Nether Pill. You can sell five Intermediate Nether Pills below the Fivefold Realm of Little Ghosts, and you can sell ten Intermediate Netherworld Pills above the Fivefold Realm of Little Ghosts. Hearing this, Song Yu and I both looked ugly, and we had cursed Ye Xiaoshi's slut tens of thousands of times in our hearts. Especially Song Yu, if he had ten mid-level Netherworld Pills, maybe they were already in the Ninefold Realm of Little Ghosts, so why should he be trapped in this pit.
"Brother Song, can you sell me the exercises you cultivate, how many low-level Nether Pills do you need?" I asked.
"Brother Xiaojiu, why be polite to me, this thing is not worth anything outside, just let me give you a gift." Song Yu said as he handed me the cheats.
I took the cheats, and saw that the cover said "Tiger Formula", and turned a few pages casually, mainly using the power of the nether to strengthen the limbs of the body, not very profound, no wonder it can be seen everywhere outside, but it is just right for people like me who have no experience with the power of the netherworld, at least when the time comes to encounter the ironclad beast, it will not be killed by one blow, and it will have a little more defensive power.
I wanted to tell Song Yu that I could absorb the Nether Power in the Nether Ore, but it seemed too incredible to think of this secret. If his strength is improved too quickly, he is told to the Qing Ying Sect, maybe he will be caught by them, and he may not be able to do research as a specimen, and his life will not be guaranteed. I was in a dilemma at the moment, so I decided not to tell him yet.
If only I could find a way to escape from this mine, then the sky will be wide and I will be able to roam. But with my slight strength, I'm afraid it's difficult to make a difference, and I suddenly had an idea in my heart, isn't there a low-level Netherworld ore here? I'll dig more, anyway, I only need to pay five hundred low-grade nether ores every month, and the excess will be put in the storage bag, if the sky doesn't kill me, I can escape one day, and when the time comes, I will absorb the netherworld power in these ores, and I will have more self-preservation power.
