Chapter 269 Lu Tian Mineral Vein
Stunned! Stupefied! Shocked!
Including Divine Beast of Chaos, Swallowing Spirit… All those who were with Lyu Liang felt it was totally unbelievable!
When Lyu Liang was in a state of despair, the original shell of Liu Xiaoxue, who had self-detonated, suddenly held her head and yelled in pain, and the aura that broke out was controlled temporarily!
It was necessary to say that Lyu Liang’s growth during these years, was obvious to all. He adjusted his mentality in a flash. The black net dropped down in an instant, and then Lyu Liang threw fierce punches at his opponent, but avoided hitting her vital parts!
“Ah!” With a scream, Liu Xiaoxue, who was covered by the black net, was like a broken kite, which had been shot down. The next moment, she lost her consciousness!
Lyu Liang still maintained his punching stance, as he breathed heavily. His eyes were wild with shock. Even if his body had made the most correct response, the incredible look on his face still showed the deep shock that was in the depths of his heart!
“What’s going on!” Lyu Liang screamed, and the joy of reuniting with his companion turned into a kind of anger, of being fooled. This was most intolerable!
“Kid, explore her body carefully! Don’t you think that this scene seems to have happened before!” White’s old voice sounded, “How deep her hatred is, and she even played such a big trick on you!” ”
Lyu Liang also calmed down for a while. In the previous environment, and with absolute trust in his own people, he never thought about exploring her. But at this moment, in his heart, there was already a gradually clear answer.
“…If I can’t kill you during this lifetime, I swear I will not be a human during the next lifetime!” When Lyu Liang found a blue blood spot in a hidden position inside Liu Xiaoxue’s body with the help of Little Tian, he was extremely calm. However, an uncontrollable killing intent was welling up in his mind, which seemed to be about to erupt at any time.
“Calm down! You don’t want to have any unnecessary trouble!” White’s yelling forced Lyu Liang to control his emotions.
“Damn it! What devious tricks! This should be a high-level skill of Divine Soul indication! If I am right, ‘Wu Yingzhao’ is the keyword that triggers this indication! No wonder Xiaoxue did not mention her favorite person. It is not that she has forgotten him, but that the name was completely blocked from the depths of her Divine Soul!” White said in a low voice, obviously also out of anger, “This mortal enemy is too sophisticated! He has already predicted that you will meet her sooner or later, so he deliberately designed a trap for you to fall in!”
“But why did Xiaoxue suddenly stop self-detonating. If she did not stop at the time, even if I was not killed, I would still be badly hurt and my identity would be exposed!” Lyu Liang felt scared when he thought of this, but suddenly, he seemed to recall something and asked in surprise, “I understand! It is the restriction formation set by the Tianshu Pavilion in her body that worked!”
“Well, it should be! You are also a disciple of Tianshu Pavilion at the moment. Since she is your servant, anyone who wants to murder you, will be counterattacked by the restriction formation in her body! Look at her, if I am right… Oh! What a pity! We lost a talent!” The words of White were sad, and Lyu Liang’s heart suddenly felt hurt. They both thought of something which was, though not the worst, yet not so good…
Sure enough, when Lyu Liang went to observe Liu Xiaoxue, although her aura was still there, yet her cultivation was totally gone. After an observation by Little Tian, they found that her Divine Soul was basically smashed. Even if they could heal her, she would live as an ordinary person without any cultivation in the future.
If she did not have the opportunity to meet Lyu Liang, she had to live as a mortal for the rest of her life…
“Bang!” Lyu Liang directly punched the ground and made a deep pit, and then he raised his trembling hand to clear away the blue blood spot, and then emitted his aura again. This time, Liu Xiaoxue awoke in an instant.
“Thank you… I… finally remembered… ” Liu Xiaoxue fell weakly into Lyu Liang’s arms, but revealed a look of relief.
“Your cultivation… Sorry… I should have thought that something was not quite right earlier…” Lyu Liang felt a lot of pain. He knew how cruel it was to be an omnia of the Remote Antiquity family.
To his surprise, Liu Xiaoxue still smiled lightly and said, “No, I should still thank you… Not only did you save my life, the most important thing… you made me finally think of Yingzhao… Oh, if I really forgot about him, it’s better… for me to die!”
In the face of such a woman who was so infatuated, what else could Lyu Liang say?
“Can you still remember what happened?” Lyu Liang asked, trying to keep calm, but it was hard for him to hide the passionate killing intent within him.
Liu Xiaoxue nodded and said, “I only remember that after I was stranded in the land of Wild Domain ten years ago, I stayed alone for five years. But when I went out to find the other people, I had a conflict with several big powers. In such a crisis, a masked woman with blue hair saved me.”
“It’s her again!” Lyu Liang’s eyes narrowed, and the anger that had just been suppressed in his heart, began to expand uncontrollably.
The first time, on the Tianfo Mountain, all the monks were controlled by her!
The second time, in the Nether Big World, she initiated a fatal attack outside the channel!
The third time, right here, she actually used her companion as her Man of Sacrifice!
Lyu Liang was overwhelmed by his killing intent. The threat from this masked woman with blue hair was even stronger than that from the Infernal Purgatory, so this woman had successfully become the first target that Lyu Liang wanted to kill!
Liu Xiaoxue continued, “The most important thing is that she is familiar with our situation, and even how we attacked in the channel. When she says that she is a close-knit maid of the Liu Jiatan of the Liu family of the Remote Antiquity and shows the unique token of the eight Immortal Generals, I do not doubt her anymore…”
At this point, Liu Xiaoxue’s brows furrowed again and after a while, painfully said, “I’m sorry… I can only think of so much. As for what happened after that, I can’t remember… The only thing I can recall after that, is I became alone again, and later I was discovered, I was defeated by a group of people. Finally I was arrested by this Tianshu Pavilion…”
After hearing what she said, Lyu Liang just nodded and told her to have a good rest in his portable cave residence. At this point, there was less than four hours before the dawn.
“Since you are so eager to kill me, definitely you won’t give up! However, I swear that if you attack me again, I will definitely kill you!” Lyu Liang said this cruelly to himself, and then redressed himself as the barbarian. He resumed his calmness and waited for Pockmark Feng.
However, the words “Liu family of the Remote Antiquity” in the narration of Liu Xiaoxue caught Lyu Liang’s attention. He was not afraid of the identity of the blue-haired woman, but as for the Liu family, he subconsciously thought of a person…
If he really had conflicts with the Liu family just because of this blue-haired woman, it would be troublesome…
……
This time, Pockmark Feng politely triggered the restriction formation in advance and greeted Lyu Liang, before he entered the cave residence. When he entered the cave residence of Lyu Liang, even though he did not see Liu Xiaoxue, he did not ask about her, and it seemed that he did not care. She was only a servant at that. So Lyu Liang secretly felt relieved.
“Junior Brother, time is limited! Just before I came, Tianshu Master directly transmitted a voice to me and asked me to tell you the basic rules. Let’s go to the main hall of the Tianshu Pavilion to have a discussion immediately! Let’s get down to business and we will start now!” It was so rare to see Pockmark Feng so serious, “From today, and six days later, it will be the area-division day of the mining area, which is held every ten years in the Nether Big World.”
“Simply speaking, all kinds of supernal materials and agrarian treasures are produced in the mining area. But the resources are limited and the distribution is not balanced. So there must be a rule to regulate the mining of the resources. If everyone fights for good resources at will, the world will be in chaos! So, in order to regulate the activities of the powerful sects in the mining area, the Dark Reign set up a rule, tens of thousands of years ago, which is, to divide the mining area into different zones. Every ten years, the powerful sects will send out their representatives to participate in the wushu test, to fight for their zones! The sect that ranks top has the priority of choosing their mining zone!” Pockmark Feng finished his sentence in one breath and swallowed hard.
“Then… senior brother, how about the rank of our Tianshu Pavilion each time? What kind of treasures are worth such a fight?” Lyu Liang finally understood the rules. He was quite familiar with this practice, which was the same as selecting talents on the arena.
Pockmark Feng continued to speak, his eyes shining, “Hey, one hundred years ago, people from the Dark Reign were not allowed to participate in the test. Since then, our Tianshu Pavilion has won the No.1 place every year! As to why it is so fierce, it is because inside the mining area, there is a place where the Lu Tian Mineral Vein is hidden!”
“Lu Tian Mineral Vein? What’s that?” “A kind of spiritual stone?” Lyu Liang rubbed his head, feeling confused.
“Oh! It is better to have you see it, rather than describe it beautifully!” Pockmark Feng patted his thigh and turned over his palm, and then a black stone, the size of a fingernail, appeared and floated over to Lyu Liang, “I only have one piece of the stone, which I have gained by fight ferociously for it in the previous two tests!”
“It’s such an inconspicuous… ah?!” Lyu Liang instinctively held it in his hand, just wanting to know more about it. But suddenly he felt a strong aura rushing into his body!
This Spiritual Qi seemed to appear automatically in Lyu Liang’s body. The moment the Spiritual Qi entered his body, he felt that his Cultivation Methods, including the Five Acts of Heaven Soul and the Holy Soul Order were all showing a rising momentum!
If it were not that he was in a wrong place, Lyu Liang would have started to cultivate under closed door meditation! At this point, he finally understood the biggest secret of this unremarkable stone! And he had a hunch that if he could fight with this stone, his combat power could be improved by at least 30%!
“Haha, cool? This is the Lu Tian Mineral Vein! The only secret treasure between heaven and earth that can stimulate the potential of cultivators! Even in the space of the Nuwa, it is also regarded as a big treasure by the families of the Remote Antiquity and even the Sanctuary!” Looking at the shocked face of Lyu Liang, Pockmark Feng finally laughed proudly.
“Treasure! What a good treasure! Senior brother, I also want to get a piece of the stone!” Lyu Liang reluctantly returned the stone to Pockmark Feng, and his reluctance was real.
“That depends on your power! Those who can get the award of the Lu Tian Mineral Vein are all powerful figures from the big sects. If you want one, you have to fight even at the sacrifice of your life! You have to win three times in succession, in the final test, and there are a total of five tests!” Looking at Lyu Liang’s eager eyes, Pockmark Feng hurriedly added, “There are five rounds in the final test! The participants are all the outstanding ones from every sects! The possibility of winning successively three times… well, is even more difficult than you fighting with a Tao Ancestor alone! Winning five rounds means that on the condition of your team having entered the final test, you have to participate in every round and defeat your opponents!”
Sure enough, the second half of Pockmark Feng’s words made Lyu Liang calm down.
Yes, the elites of the major sects in the Nether Big World were all top figures… Even if he was strong, he was at most of the same level. It was really not easy to win successively for three times than winning overall for five times!
“Senior brother, how can I achieve three wins in a row? Since the start of the test, has anyone done it?” The strong one should be respected, regardless when and where, and Lyu Liang was no exception.
Pockmark Feng said mysteriously, “There really is! But just five! The first one is Ancestor Wushu of our Tianshu Pavilion! The other four are also outstanding powerful figures from the powerful sects! However, the last one who won successively for three times had to be traced back to nearly a thousand years ago! As for the method, it’s very simple. After you win one round, don’t step down. You can continue to wait for the next challenger on the stage! The rule of the wushu test is that every team should fight to the last, until the last number is defeated! For example, in a team, if the first four were all defeated, they could still win the test if the last managed to defeat all the five members of the other team!”
Lyu Liang had no doubts this time, and at the same time, he lamented, “The Nether Big World really has a sound foundation. It is actually filled with powerful figures!”
……
Yue Feng Nest Meeting, the second strongest sect of the Nether Big World was among the three branches of the Dark Reign. At this moment, a special guest visited the Yue Feng Nest Meeting.
At the entrance of the Great Defense Formation of the Yue Feng Nest Meeting, two ranks of black-robed cultivators were standing on the two sides, each one having the cultivation of Tao Ancestor. At this time, they looked respectfully at a bearded man who had flown over with a blue-robed young man.
“Welcome, leader!” The two rows of black-robed cultivators bowed deeply to them.
“Leave it! Quickly prepare a room on the upper floor as what I have requested!” After saying that, the bearded man turned to the young man and said, “You can rest here, in order for your injury to heal. I promise you can participate in the zone-division test of the mining area, seven days later!”
The young man respectfully cupped his hands and thanked him, “I really don’t know how to repay my gratitude to you! Can’t you really disclose any of your information to me? I feel so sorry to have disturbed you! Especially in order to save me, those brothers even lost their lives… ”
“You will know all this, sooner or later, but the person who tells you the truth will definitely not be me! As long as you are willing to trust me, it will be the biggest reward for me!” The bearded man waved his hand and smiled softly, “Come on, your injury is not slight, and it will take a few days for you to recover! You don’t want to miss the opportunity to meet your Master, right?”
Hearing these words, the young man refrained from saying anything, but just sighed. He cupped his hands to show his respect again, “I will never forget your help! No matter what kind of purpose you have, at least I, Nie Qingyun, will forever remember your kindness!” After saying that, the young man took the lead and flew ahead.
Dahan smiled slightly, and followed him immediately. When the two disappeared in the array, the welcoming teams on the two sides also scattered.
However, what puzzled everyone was the identity of this young man who seemed to be infamous. He actually made the milord, who did not even respect the deacons of the Dark Reign, follow him as if he was a servant!
Moreover, the most important thing was that the leader’s room upstairs, which was said to be the highest level cave residence, had been set aside especially by the Tao Ancestor of the Dark Reign, and even the deacons of the highest rank in the Dark Reign did not qualify to stay there!
Now the first one to stay in the room was actually a strange young man, whose cultivation was at most at the Middle-stage of the Heavenly Master… Who on earth was he?
