This casual cultivator's name is Yang Jian, who was originally a casual cultivator in Binhaifang City to make a living, and has broken through to the ninth layer of qi refining for many years.

He is more than one hundred and thirty years old, which is not far from the longevity of a Qi refining period cultivator who is one hundred and fifty years old.

Originally, he was going to close himself at the age of one hundred and forty and attack the foundation building realm.

But he accidentally got the news that the Ghoul Sect was recruiting loose cultivators for mining, which gave him some hope.

Because he has some savings, if he can earn a little more through mining, he may be able to get a Tsukidan on the black market in Binhaifang City to increase the success rate of foundation building.

In this way, the chances of success in his retreat and impact on the foundation building realm will undoubtedly increase.

Yang Jian has been here from Binhaifang City for almost 10 years, and he has been mining during this time, except for the necessary cultivation time.

Originally, his mining career would have passed so uneventfully, and he only needed to wait for another two years, and the spirit stones raised would be enough to exchange for a Tsukidan on the black market.

But a chance discovery a year ago completely changed the course of his life.

He found a ninth-level Qi refining cultivator dressed as a casual cultivator, and every time he came, he always chose those mining holes that had been dug by people. Even if you deliberately go into a normal mine once in a while to confuse others, you won't be able to stay for three or five days before you come out, and then you will choose a barren mine again.

This discovery made him suspicious, and after some careful consideration, he decided to investigate it himself, and maybe there was some special chance.

In fact, it is not only the chance that may exist that attracted Yang Jian, he has lived for more than a hundred years, and he deeply knows the truth that if you have a life, you must also have a life.

Before he decided to act, he had carefully observed Li Xuangang's aura and determined that he was an ordinary Qi Refining Ninth Layer Cultivator, even if he cultivated a technique such as Body Alchemy that could enhance his strength, he would not exceed the limit of a Qi Refining Stage cultivator.

Yang Jian had great confidence in his cultivation strength, and he had learned a breath-gathering spell, which was quite subtle, and it was impossible to discover him with the divine sense of the Qi Refining Period.

At that time, if there is any chance, then he can take the lead in launching a sneak attack with this breathing technique.

In fact, he has done this many times since he cultivated the Tao, and he has never missed it.

When he quietly sneaked into the bottom of the mine where Li Xuangang was, he not only saw Li Xuangang's figure, but also saw a strange monk.

Yang Jian thought to himself: "Sure enough, there is a problem. ”

Because he had absolute confidence in his breathing technique, when Li Xuangang first called out that someone was here, Yang Jian thought he was cheating him. He also patiently did not show his figure.

But then, Li Xuangang actually directly attacked the boulder where he was with a magic weapon, which made him feel a pang in his heart, it turned out that the other party had really discovered him.

However, Yang Jian was thoughtful, and although he had full confidence in his breathing technique, he still prepared defensive means in advance.

And it was this second-order defensive talisman prepared in advance that allowed him to successfully block Li Xuangang's attack.

......

The Eight Spider Blue Light Sword turned into four cyan sword qi, first heading straight towards Yang Jian, and then suddenly changed the trajectory of the flight halfway, crossing from all directions.

Looking at the approaching Sen Ran sword qi, Yang Jian didn't dare to be careless, and quickly took out a black second-order lower-grade shield from the storage bag to protect his body.

Li Xuangang fixed his eyes and saw that this was actually a black water shield.

The four sword qi were all blocked by Yang Jian, and with a move of Li Xuangang's right hand, he took out four more Eight Spider Blue Light Swords from the storage bag.

And the stiff man who was following him also knew what Li Xuangang meant, this was to be a quick solution.

So he didn't keep his hand anymore. The flesh and blood of the whole body quickly dried up, and the breath gradually transformed into a corpse.

In Yang Jian's opinion, the stiff face instantly turned into a blue-faced fanged appearance.

Moreover, the aura of refining corpses on it was extremely strong. Seeing this, while calling out his second-order inferior flywheel magic weapon, he was secretly vigilant in his heart.

"Could it be that this monk who appeared inexplicably is a disciple of the Ghoul Sect?

Without leaving much time for Yang Jian to think, Li Xuangang's next wave of attacks was almost instantaneous.

He had to immediately turn on his aura to resist.

The moment the flywheel in his hand came into contact with Li Xuangang's Eight Spider Blue Light Sword, Yang Jian sensed that it was not good, because judging from the power transmitted from the contact of the magic weapon, the other party had definitely cultivated a top-level alchemy technique.

Even though Li Xuangang suppressed Yang Jian in terms of strength, the latter's spiritual power was even deeper than him, and it had almost reached the limit that a Qi Refining Stage cultivator could reach.

In addition to Yang Jian's particularly deep spiritual power, his body style was also very strange, which made Li Xuangang's attacks frequently fail.

However, because of the stiff big holding the black knife behind him to prevent him from escaping, Yang Jian had to face Li Xuangang's attack.

For a while, the three of them fought at the bottom of the mine.

The aura is stirring everywhere, and all kinds of spells are emerging one after another.

After a while, the entire mine was full of traces of flames and ice, and there were huge earth thorns summoned by Li Xuangang in many places.

Thankfully, the mine was deep enough that it didn't spread the spiritual power fluctuations of their fight to the surface.

Li Xuangang became more and more frightened the more he fought, he had used almost all his means, and he still couldn't completely suppress the other party under the stiff attack.

Although it is now him and Zhuangda who have the upper hand, judging from this situation, it will take a lot of time to completely defeat Yang Jian, and during this time, it is very likely that the other party will seize the opportunity to escape.

Obviously, this result is unacceptable to Li Xuangang.

He and Zhuangda can communicate with each other to a certain extent, Li Xuangang is just a look, and Zhuangda instantly understands what he means.

The next moment, his stiff body changed a little, he gradually changed from blue-brown to black, and the texture of metal began to appear on his skin.

An eerie evil aura with a hint of rage enveloped the entire bottom of the mine in an instant.

On the other side, Li Xuangang also recalled the eight-handled Eight Spider Blue Light Sword and suspended it in front of him.

He pinched a spell with both hands, and the eight-handled Eight Spider Blue Light Sword began to rotate in one direction. After a burst of dazzling blue light, an eight-spider blue light sword with a stronger aura appeared in his hand.

Of course, Yang Jian, who was fighting against Li Xuangang, also discovered this situation, and secretly said that something was wrong in his heart, he controlled his flywheel magic weapon back to the top of his head, and the spiritual power around his body was stirred, turning the flywheel into eighteen small flywheels with golden light.

When the cyan sword qi of the Eight Spider Blue Light Sword was slashed off on the head, eighteen flywheels were also stimulated from his side one by one.

The gold and blue collided, and the surrounding rocks shattered and collapsed.

Behind Yang Jian, Stiff Da also leaped up and turned into a black streamer.

Yang Jian had been prepared for this, and he took out a disc-shaped magic weapon from his arms to block the stiff attack.

"Boom!"

The stiff fist slammed into Yang Jian's enlarged disc-shaped magic weapon, and circles of spiritual power fluctuations vibrated out from it.

The dull sound came into the minds of Li Xuangang and Yang Jian at the same time, and their hearts were shaken.

Yang Jian didn't expect that this suspected disciple of the Ghoul Sect could actually increase his physical strength to such a level after performing the corpse transformation technique.

......

Although Yang Jian is experienced and his cultivation has almost reached the peak of the Qi Refining Realm, Li Xuangang's strength is not weak among the monks of the ninth layer of Qi Refining, and he is assisted by a stiff body strength similar to him, so Yang Jian's defeat was doomed from the beginning.

At the last moment, Yang Jian thought about leaving, but the retreating passage was blocked by Stiff Da with his strong body, so that he never got his wish.

When the stiff pale black arm penetrated his dantian, Yang Jian closed his eyes unwillingly.

Seeing that Yang Jian's aura had disappeared, Li Xuangang put back the Eight Spider Blue Light Swords around him, and Zhuangda also withdrew his arm from Yang Jian's body, and took off a few storage bags from his waist by the way.

Putting away the magic weapons scattered on the scene, he glanced at the old man condescendingly, and then cast a fire spell with a calm face, burning his body completely.

Only then did he open the Sancai Spirit Isolation Array and send Zhuangda into the Boundary Source Space.

After dealing with the traces of the fight around him, he turned around and prepared to leave here.

Behind him, Yang Jian's body had already turned into a small handful of white ash, scattered in the crevices of various rocks.

After leaving the mine, he handed his storage bag to the disciples of the Ghoul Sect for inspection as usual.

After checking it, he got thirty spirit stones from the latter's hand.

Then, Li Xuangang turned into a black figure and rushed towards Mangshanfang City without looking back.
