Chapter 166: Three Holy Islands, Mining Slaves

Sansheng Island is one of the few islands in the vast sea where there are immortal cultivators.

The island is about four to five hundred miles long and seven to eight hundred miles wide. It has pavilions, rockeries and fish ponds. There are spiritual birds patrolling the sky and sea animals cruising on the sea. It can be said that it is heavily defended.

A moment later, a black treasure ship dozens of feet high passed through the fog on the sea and slowly sailed towards the Three Holy Islands.

The black treasure ship was densely covered with runes, and the light was flowing. There were three thick black gun barrels on the bow, and an expressionless monk stood beside each gun barrel.

After a stick of incense, the treasure ship approached the coast and then stopped at the dock.

"Hahaha, congratulations to my second brother on his triumphant return!"

Following a hearty laugh, an old man in black robes led a dozen monks to the edge of the pier.

The old man in black robe is thin and short, with a ferocious face, sunken eye sockets, and a face full of wrinkles. When he smiles, it can be said to be uglier than crying.

It's just that no one of the monks standing at the dock dared to show anything strange, because this person was the boss of the Three Holy Islands, the old black devil. He had the cultivation of the middle stage of the golden elixir, and he was a murderous demon who did not blink an eye.

At this time, the cabin door opened and a group of monks filed out.

The leader was wearing a purple robe, with a feminine appearance, and a playful smile on his lips. He looked like a handsome young man from the world, but there was a hint of evil charm and cruelty between his eyebrows, and he looked like a ruthless character at first glance.

This person is the second eldest son of the Three Holy Islands, Mr. Scorpio, who is in the middle stage of the Golden Core.

"Second brother has been here for three years and hasn't encountered any danger, right?"

"I encountered a few third-level sea beasts, but relying on the Black Dragon, it was quite easy."

Mr. Scorpio's face was lazy and his tone was extremely relaxed.

"Let's go! Big brother will take care of you."

The old black devil said, and he called Mr. Scorpio to walk towards the island.

Mr. Scorpio nodded, then turned to the people behind him and said, "Take those people to the Black Cave."

"Yes, the second in charge!"

Mr. Scorpio then followed the old Black Devil towards the island.

"Get them all out!"

As the secret door at the bottom of the cabin opened, another group of monks came out. There were men and women, old and young, all with sallow faces and dull eyes. There were more than a hundred people.

Everyone seemed to have been locked in a closed space for too long. When they came out, they were not used to the light outside, and they all squinted their eyes.

"Hurry up!"

"Pfft!"

A flash of sword light passed by, and a thin woman was cut into two halves. Everyone was shocked and immediately cheered up and walked out.

A few drops of blood splashed on Li Yunxiao's body, but he didn't react at all, as did Li Xuanhui next to him.

The two of them had witnessed the cruelty of this group of people many times along the way, and they had already maintained their composure.

The team led by these two people accidentally gathered together on the way. They encountered various monsters and natural disasters along the way, and their tribesmen were also lost one after another in these accidents.

Finally, they encountered a treasure ship belonging to an immortal cultivator, but they didn't expect it to be a group of pirates. The two of them were captured and came here.

"Take the body and feed it to the second master's spiritual insects!"

"yes!"

Two monks soon walked up and took the woman's body away.

Seeing the panic in everyone's eyes, Huang Shan couldn't help but feel a flash of pride in his eyes. He had the cultivation of Foundation Establishment and was one of the ten great stewards of the Three Holy Islands.

"Everyone follow me!"

Huangshan led the way, and the group escorted everyone to follow immediately.

Along the way, Li Yunxiao was observing the terrain of the Three Holy Islands, but their magic power was blocked. Even if he tried hard to look around, he could not use his spiritual consciousness and could only see layers of buildings.

About half an hour later, Huangshan led everyone to the halfway point of a mountain peak, and then went straight to a mine.

Li Yunxiao glanced around and saw two monks standing at the entrance of the mine. Based on his intuition, he was sure that they were just Qi Refining monks.

"I've met Mr. Huangshan!"

When the two monks saw Huangshan, they immediately saluted respectfully.

Huangshan nodded indifferently, then turned around and said to everyone: "This is the black rock cave on the island, and there is a black rock crystal vein inside."

Huangshan paused and then said: "Your future mission is to mine here. Only by completing the mission can you get the Bigu Pill reward. Do you understand me clearly?"

"yes!"

I am a knife and a soldier, and I am a fish and meat. No one dares to refuse.

"very good!"

Huangshan nodded with satisfaction, and then said to the two guards: "Next, these people will be handed over to you two. Explain the rules carefully to them, and then distribute tools to them."

"Don't worry, sir, we know what to do."

The two guards immediately agreed with licking their faces. After Huangshan left, one of the young men in black looked at the crowd and said, "One hundred and five people, the foundation-building monks, come forward."

Although he is a Qi Refining cultivator, his majesty is no less than that of Foundation Establishment.

Li Yunxiao and Li Xuanhui looked at each other and immediately stepped forward. There were eight people in total, including two women.

"Each of you eight must hand over three thousand kilograms of black rock crystal ore per month, and the remaining Qi Refining monks must hand over one thousand five hundred kilograms per month."

After the young man in black finished speaking, he took out a storage bag and dumped it on the ground. A large number of magical weapons of various colors fell out, more than a hundred of them.

"Choose your own tools. After the mission is completed, your respective magic weapons must be handed in. If they are damaged, you can exchange them with me. When the time is up, we will come to accept them."

Everyone hurried forward to choose. Li Yunxiao chose a small black hammer, which he felt should be easier, while Li Xuanhui chose a flying sword.

"Okay, let's go in!"

Seeing that everyone had chosen their tools, the young man in black put away the remaining magic tools and ordered everyone to line up to enter the Black Rock Cave.

After everyone entered, the two of them each took out a black token, pinched the magic formula, and the two tokens each shot out a black light, and the entrance was immediately covered by a black light curtain.

Unfortunately, everyone didn't notice this scene at all.

The air in the mine was dry and a little stuffy, and bones could be seen everywhere. Obviously, many people had died here, and everyone was in a heavy mood.

Everyone quickly came to the depths of the mine, which was connected in all directions, with more than a dozen forks. Everyone walked around and found that they were all connected.

"Uncle Thirteen, can we still get out?"

Li Xuanhui looked at the dark mine and never thought that he would become a mining slave one day. All their resources were taken away, and they had no magic power, so they felt that their future was bleak.

"I will!"

Li Yunxiao patted his shoulder, but his eyes were a little dim, and he was obviously not sure, but as an elder, he naturally had to give his nephew confidence.

"Okay, get to work! Time is running out!"

Li Yunxiao took the black hammer and hit the ore vein with one hammer, sparks flew, and the black hammer almost slipped out of his hand.

"This kind of black rock crystal should be a second-level medium-quality one. It's not easy to dig a thousand pounds!"

Li Yunxiao's face was a little heavy.

Next, he hit it five times before he hit out a piece of black rock crystal ore the size of a human head.

Li Xuanhui was not idle either. If he wanted to survive, he had to work hard.

For a while, sparks flew in all the passages of the mine, and there were constant clanging sounds.
