Inside the cave hall.

More and more miners saw Ye Chen, an immortal monk, appear in the cave hall, and they fell silent. Even the few miners who were fighting brutally in the center of the field stopped.

"There is an immortal from the Heavenly Void Gate!"

"The head of the Tianxumen just killed a lot of our brothers a few days ago, let's kill him to avenge the brothers!"

Many mine slaves showed fierce eyes, with hatred, and roared at Ye Chen in a low voice.

"Who's going first?"

Even some of the miners had already tightened their grip on their shovels and were ready to go. However, they didn't know how strong Ye Chen's strength was, and there were a lot of roars, but there were few who actually went up to do it.

"I'll weigh his methods!"

In the previous battle, the sturdy and burly miner who had won a game just now was in full swing, roared violently, and with his bare hands, he strode towards Ye Chen. It seems that this person is also a fierce general in the secular world.

There were also two other miners, who rushed over after the strong man.

"Don't fight! Ye Xianchang is not in the same group as those prison heads. ”

Ah Zhi and Ah Li hurriedly shouted to dissuade them, but they were pulled away by the other miners.

"Punch me!"

The strong man and the miner had already rushed close to Ye Chen, his meridians erupted, and he punched out, and the fierce fist wind broke through the air and hit Ye Chen's head. One punch turned into three fist shadows, attacking Ye Chen's head, temples, and throat respectively.

This mine slave's fist speed is very fast among martial artists, and it can be called a high-level fist technique. But in Ye Chen's eyes, it can only be regarded as extremely slow, and he is full of flaws.

Ye Chen smiled, and his figure flickered.

The strong man suddenly felt the figure in front of him bloom, turned into a vague shadow, and was suddenly shocked, suddenly he felt a heavy blow to the abdomen, screamed, flew out of a few feet, screamed angrily, and struggled to get up.

The other two miners were taken aback, shocked by Ye Chen's ghostly speed, and did not dare to step forward again.

Ye Chen kicked the big man away, and his gaze swept over the thousands of mine slaves in the cave hall.

When these miners saw the strong man being kicked away, their faces couldn't help but be a little more frightened and strongly repulsed.

Ye Chen's heart couldn't help but sink, and he thought anxiously.

With his cultivation and strength at the eighth level of the Qi Refining Period, these Martial Artist Stage miners couldn't trap him just by relying on the number of people. He had memorized the terrain, and it was easy to exit. It's just that if this fights, it will be very detrimental to the hearts of his people who accept these mine slaves.

The prison heads, foremen, and guards outside the cave were unreliable.

If even the miners in this mine cave can't be subdued, he, the head of the Nanhu mining area, can't sit still.

The strong man who fell out finally got up and roared wildly, wanting to rush towards Ye Chen again.

"Stop, Apang, you are not the opponent of the Immortal Chief, don't humiliate yourself. ”

In the crowd of miners, an old man with a pale face stepped forward. The old man had a calm bearing, his temples were bulging, his true qi skills were several times stronger than that strong man, and he was wearing a barely complete cloth shirt, and he came out surrounded by dozens of mine slaves.

The strong man glared at Ye Chen and stepped back angrily.

The old man bowed his hand slightly towards Ye Chen, and said in a deep voice, "The old slave is the slave head of Wanchang Kingdom, dare to ask this immortal chief to come to this mine, but for mining?"

"You want to mine, but you don't seem to welcome it. ”

Ye Chen said lightly.

"It's not that the old slave doesn't want to, it's just that the mine roads in this mining area are really limited. All the mines were divided by our three mining slaves, Wanchang, Dongzong, and Yunjin. One more person to mine, one more ore to go out. If it was before, it would be nothing, but now the ore in the mine is very tight, and there is not enough points. ”

The old slave shook his head and said.

"This vein is at least hundreds of miles in circumference, how can it not be enough to dig?"

Ye Chen was surprised.

"Immortal Chang doesn't know, it's not easy to dig out a dark iron ore road. It will take at least a few months to excavate a new passage, and if there is only hard stone and no iron ore in the new passage, it will be a huge waste of manpower and a lot of losses.

There were originally fifty old mine roads in this mining area, but more than ten of them were abandoned mine roads that had been hollowed out, and more than ten were entrenched by terrifying demon beasts and did not dare to dig them. Now there are less than 30 mines left that can excavate the dark iron ore, and it is not easy to feed our thousands of miners here. ”

The old slave explained.

"This mine, in the belly of the mountain, how can there be demon beasts?"

Ye Chen asked strangely.

"In the mountains, there are many cracks in the mountain walls, and the demon beasts outside build nests and dig caves to hide in the cracks. Our mine tunnels continue to extend, and once we open up the cave with the monsters, the monsters will appear in the mines.

Just ten days ago, there was a mine road in the mining area that opened up to the lair of the demon beast. As a result, dozens of mine slaves were killed on the spot, and the demon beasts occupied an entire mine road as a lair, and the mine road had to be abandoned. We originally wanted to kill it, but at the cost of nearly a hundred lives, we still couldn't kill the monster. The miners in the mining area were worried all day long, fearing that they would be attacked and devoured by monsters, and later had to seal the entrance of the cave with boulders to prevent the monsters from causing trouble in the mining area. ”

The old mine slave said bitterly.

When Ye Chen heard this, his heart moved, and he asked, "When I came to the mining area, I heard that there was a mine slave riot in the mining area a few days ago. Does it have anything to do with it?"

"Don't hide it from the immortal, it is indeed because of this incident that the riot was triggered. After the mine was entrenched by the monsters, the ore production was greatly reduced. The prison chiefs outside were furious and gave us less food. There was not enough food, and some of the miners couldn't stand it, so they rushed out of the mine at night to grab food, which caused a riot in the mining area.

The guards in the mine were so strong that we lost dozens of lives, grabbed very little food, and then retreated to the mine. Now the three major mine slave forces in the cave are fighting in order to redistribute these mines. ”

The old slave nodded and told the truth of the matter.

"The old slave has a reluctant request. That monster is so powerful that we can't kill it at all. I don't know what the strength of the immortal chief is, can you help me wait for the mine slave to kill that demon beast!"

The old slave said with some expectation.

Ye Chen groaned.

He served as the head of the Nanhu mining area, and it was very simple to help the miners here.

Whether it is directly giving food or helping them kill the monsters in the cave, it can greatly change their situation.

That wasn't what he was going to do, though.

He entered this mine to subdue the thousands of mine slaves, and then go back and clean up the prison heads, and clean up all the people who wanted to make trouble for him in the Nanhu mining area. Let yourself be able to cultivate smoothly in this mining area for two years.

"I'll help you, what price can you pay?"

Ye Chen said quietly.

Hearing Ye Chen's tone, the old slave seemed to be willing to make a move, and suddenly said with joy on his face, "We have the best quality dark iron ore in our hands! Those prison leaders have kept the ore price too low, and we all keep these ores and use them to exchange for the urgently needed food for the Tianxumen immortals who entered the cave." It's just that the prison leaders are very strictly guarded, and the immortals of Tianxumen can't use storage bags to bring a large amount of food. ”

The old slave said, clapping his hands and shouting at the miners behind him, "Bring those ores over!"

"Okay!"

Immediately, several strong miners rushed into a mine road behind them, and carried out hundreds of catties of high-quality fourth-order or above black iron ore with their back baskets. Put it in front of Ye Chen.

Ye Chen took out the ore in the big back basket and looked at it. He has refined spiritual weapons, and naturally distinguishes the quality of the black iron ore, and the higher the quality of the black iron ore, the harder it is. The higher the quality of the balite, the more valuable it is.

Above the fourth order, you can even refine the magic weapons used by the foundation building monks.

In addition to some fourth-order baite ore, there are some other kinds of ore in the back basket, hematite, yaojin ore, mixed with bastarite, all of which are valuable ores.

The miners didn't know how to tell the difference, but they could tell that the ores were different.

"These ores are very good, why don't you send them out for food!"

Ye Chen was surprised.

The old slave head said hatefully, "The prison chiefs outside don't care about the grade, they only exchange food for weight and are very badly deducted. We don't want to give away the good mines we dig out for nothing. As long as the Immortal Elder can help us kill that demon beast, these fine ores will be given to the Immortal Chief!"

Ye Chen didn't accept these ores.

Ore is just a trivial matter, and he wants the miners to be convinced.

And he doesn't know what kind of monster beast it is, so it's hard to say if he can kill it.

"I can help you deal with the monsters and clear the mines, but in return, you need to do something for me! I want to do something in the mine, you have to do things for me! ”

Ye Chen said lightly.

"We mine slaves, except for ore, only have one cheap life. This life is worthless, the immortal chief can solve our predicament, and if we have a mouthful of food to eat, we will give the immortal chief our lives!"

The old slave head is colorful.

Ye Chen made a deal with the old slave head.

Subsequently, the old slave head instructed Ah Pang and more than ten capable miners to take Ye Chen to the closed mine road

After Ye Chen and the others left the cave hall.

The other two slave heads of Dongzong Kingdom and Yunjin Kingdom, a middle-aged man with a pale face, and an old man who was thin and full of anger, finally came out from among the thousands of miners.

They didn't dare to come out all at once.

They weren't sure who Ye Chen was, whether he was an immortal sent by the prison heads.

If it comes out, they will all be attacked and killed at once.

Then this mining area will be leaderless, completely chaotic, and easily suppressed by powerful prison heads and guards.

"This immortal chief, can you deal with that terrifying demon beast? We gathered one or two hundred martial artists above the sixth level of the body refining stage, rushed into the mine, and failed to kill that demon beast!"

"The mine is too small to allow a few people to pass through, and it is not a battlefield, so it is impossible to set up a military formation! Otherwise, the strength of thousands of us would have killed that demon beast long ago! Only a strong immortal could kill that demon beast by himself. ”

"We are all mortals with the naked eye, and we can't see the strength of the immortal. However, the strength of the immortals is much stronger than that of our martial artists, so let's give it a try, even if it fails, it will not be worse than the current situation. ”

"If it succeeds, we'll do it for him!"
