2618 Zhang Beihai's Plan (2 in 1)

The next day after Tong Hua reminded Han Fei, Han Fei was sent to the small mine area.

Along with Han Fei, there were many strong masters who had entered the Star Transformation Realm and hadn't even entered the Star Transformation Realm. There were as many as 38 of them. However, Han Fei found that more than half of these 38 people were not from the Ten Thousand Scale Race, but from the Blade Clan, the Frog Race, and the primitive tribes near the Infinite Mining Area.

Besides, Han Fei didn't find Bai Ranran among these people.

Remembering Tong Hua's reminder yesterday, Han Fei had a hunch that something might happen to the small mines.

The Ten Thousand Scale Race and the Heavenly Cicada Clan were both big clans that emphasized bloodline inheritance. Just like the countless primitive tribes near the Infinite Mining Area, they only trusted their own people the most. A mission that involved a large number of other clans could never be an easy mission.

However, Han Fei didn't care. The so-called danger was only relative. Even if a five Dao Lock-level powerhouse came, it was impossible for him to kill him.

Therefore, Han Fei was not nervous at all.

…

In the Infinite Mining Areas, the biggest difference between super, large, medium, and small mines was the level of the minerals produced.

A small mine was a basic mine. Most of them were cultivation places for Sea Establishers and early-stage Sky Openers. The small mines produced level-one minerals. Most of the mine demons here were imprisoned as trial targets.

Occasionally, when cultivators were cultivating and digging small mines, they would encounter mine demons, which strong masters wouldn't interfere with. Life and death were up to fate. If they couldn't even survive such encounter wars, they would naturally be eliminated.

However, it was precisely because small mines were most suitable to nurture peak-level Sea Establishers and early-level Sky Openers that the demand for them in the Infinite Mining Areas was the greatest.

The number of small mines generally determined the ability of this faction to inject fresh blood. The more small mines there were, the easier it would be to nurture Sea Establishers, and the faster they would be nurtured.

Therefore, in the battles among the major factions, small-sized mines were as popular as medium-sized ones.

As for mid-sized mines, they were mainly targeted at the strong masters from early-stage Sky Opening Realm to the early-stage Star Transformation Realm. They were usually large mines overexploited.

Therefore, there were even occasionally level-three minerals here, but most of them were mixed combinations of level-one or level-two minerals. Because there were high-level minerals here, low-level minerals would be produced very quickly here.

In terms of value, just like small mines, they were very popular.

As for the large and super mines, the demand was actually not high. Those who could cultivate and train here were mostly in the Star Transformation or late-stage Star Transformation Realm. The mine demons here were also relatively powerful. However, the super-large mines were mainly resource-rich and included minerals of various levels. Low-level minerals were also produced the fastest.

Of course, many people were competing for such a mine. Every super-large mine that had been discovered was often accompanied by the death of many strong cultivators.

The mobilization of Han Fei and the others didn't need to be concealed at all, because now many forces were clearly trying to snatch and occupy the mines of the City of Scavengers.

Under such circumstances, they certainly would send more people to guard their mines.

However, for those who were already prepared to snatch the mines, no amount of manpower could help.

They knew that the team of City of Scavengers in the northern expedition had been completely wiped out, so they were short of manpower. If they didn't directly pull the City of Scavengers down from its high position at this time, when would they? Therefore, a war against the City of Scavengers had been brewing.

Similarly, the situation in the City of Origin wasn't much better. The difference was that the City of Origin was the tenth major faction of the Hundred Alliance City. Therefore, even though they had a hundred cultivators above the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm die, there were still some people who believed that they still had some trump cards. Of course, there were definitely all kinds of tests.

On the third day after Han Fei was transferred to the small mine area, he was assigned to the best small mine in the City of Scavengers. Along with him were one late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivator, two Star Transformation Realm cultivators, three early-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivators, and more than 2,000 Sea Establishers.

And this mine already had one late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivator, two Star Transformation Realm cultivators, and three thousand Sea Establishers.

All in all, the mine that Han Fei was in, whether it was the number of Sky Openers or Sea Establishers, was the most well-equipped and strongest of the small mines controlled by the City of Scavengers.

Including Han Fei, there were a total of nine Sky Openers, more than in any other small mine. A Blade Clan cultivator who came with Han Fei said, "Fellow Daoist Fengliu, it seems that we all took advantage of you!"

Han Fei asked indifferently, "What do you mean?"

The man smiled and said, "I heard that other small mines have at most four or five Sky Openers and only two or three thousand Sea Establishers. On our side, there are nine Sky Openers and five thousand Sea Establishers. This is meant to take special care of you in case anything happens to you!"

Han Fei glanced at the man casually, thinking to himself, Maybe this guy is a so-called leek! The more people there are, the easier it is to be attacked. Don't you understand this logic? The City of Scavengers is already in such a state. Who would hesitate to attack you just because you have a few more people?

Of course, Han Fei certainly wouldn't explain anything to this person. He simply said, "Don't take chances. A great battle is inevitable."

Soon, the nine Sky Openers gathered.

One of the late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivators said, "Everyone, don't worry. Although we might have to experience a big battle this time, the real main battlefield is clearly our small mine. The super mine is definitely the main battlefield. Of course, in any case, we have to be careful in case others take advantage of it."

Someone sighed. "Thinking back to the past, when have we ever been so nervous and vigilant? It's all the Human Butcher's fault for killing most of the strong masters of our city. Otherwise, how could these mixed small forces dare to attack us?"

Another late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivator said, "In any case, we can't take it lightly. Don't think that only small factions will attack us. Even if a small faction takes away a small mine, can they keep it? The so-called small factions might just be those large factions in disguise."

With that said, the person glanced at Han Fei and said to him via voice transmission, "Fellow Daoist Ye, my name is Zhou Fu. The higher-ups have special instructions. If you encounter any danger, you can come to me. Don't try too hard."

Han Fei thought that Tong Hua was quite careful. He had been transferred here, but he still arranged for someone to protect him.

Han Fei replied, "Okay!"

Boom ~

Not long after they gathered, the weather suddenly changed, and a Great Dao crack appeared.

Everyone was nervous, and someone said, "Not good. A Great Dao crack of this level appeared definitely because of the death of a peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivator. A battle must have already broken out in the large and super mines."

Someone cheered, "Everyone, don't panic. In a battle of factions, the strong usually fight first. Only when the strong win or lose will the following small-scale battles erupt. We have Lord Beihai, who can lead us to the 32nd place of the Hundred Alliances. How can others shake him?"

Rumble!

But just as this person finished speaking, another Great Dao crack appeared in the sky. This time, the weather change was very close, and it was also a meteorological phenomenon for the death of a peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivator.

Someone immediately said, "It's so close. I'm afraid something happened at the mid-sized mine?"

Someone was surprised. "That doesn't make sense! The battle of the strong hasn't finished yet. Who dares to touch the mid-sized mines?"

Someone said, "What if the other party attacks all our mines at the same time?"

Someone asked nervously, "How can it be? How many people will have to be deployed?"

Buzz!

However, when everyone looked in a certain direction in the void, the void opened, and thirteen Sky Openers flew out.

In addition to the thirteen Sky Openers, there were also eight thousand Sea Establishers who came out of the void one after another. Obviously, they had figured out the real situation of the mine where Han Fei was. Therefore, they had sent fifty percent more people. It seemed that they were determined to take over this mine.

"Hiss ~"

Everyone gasped, and Zhou Fu shouted, "Everyone, get ready for battle. It's not that we can't lose the small mines, but we can't easily lose them. The other party doesn't have many people in this battle. We can still fight."

The other person landed above the small mine and opened a barrier with one hand. The five thousand Sea Establisher troop was already ready.

In the Infinite Mining Areas, it was common for large-scale battles to break out for snatching resources. Under normal circumstances, no one would interfere. This was because in battle for mines, when the upper echelons' combat power was about the same, it was basically fought by Sea Establishers and early-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivators. This way, not only could they ensure that others wouldn't benefit from it, but they could also show their strength and train their soldiers.

But that was a competition for resources under normal circumstances, and today's situation was special. The invaders seemed to be fighting on multiple fronts, so they could only rely on themselves.

"Kill ~"

There was nothing to hesitate about. They had already come knocking on the door. It was useless to say anything else.

This sudden encounter immediately unfolded, and Han Fei and the other nine were immediately targeted.

However, the newcomers didn't know Han Fei's identity, so they sent a total of nine people, trying to besiege and kill the two late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivators of the City of Scavengers.

The remaining seven people just wanted to hold Han Fei and the others back. Once the two late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivators were besieged, Han Fei and the others would be doomed in the blink of an eye.

Determined to be a deserter, Han Fei naturally wouldn't take the initiative to show his strength, so he pretended to fight a Star Transformation Realm strong cultivator.

The battle seemed fierce, but the person opposite Han Fei was very surprised. It seemed that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't find Han Fei's weakness.

After only half an hour, a late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivator of the Blade Clan was defeated. He tried to launch a Star Bead attack, but the other party took out a one-time godly weapon and shattered his Star Bead.

Rumble!

The death of the first late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivator directly determined the course of the battle.

Two of the three late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivators from the other party immediately attacked Zhou Fu, and the situation immediately changed.

At this time, Han Fei heard Zhou Fu say to him via voice transmission, "Fellow Daoist Ye, it's over. Come to my side and I'll help you break out of the encirclement."

Upon hearing this, Han Fei pretended to erupt and leaned closer to Zhou Fu. However, at this moment, the person had been surrounded by five people and couldn't even protect himself. Han Fei thought to himself, Can you save me in this situation?

However, the center of Zhou Fu's eyebrows flashed as he roared, "Passing Clouds."

A pearl rose to the sky, and dazzling white light and a cloudy white mist erupted around it. Those who besieged Zhou Fu felt that their soul thinking ability was disrupted for a moment, and they seemed to have forgotten that there was still Zhou Fu. At this moment, Zhou Fu had already slashed back Han Fei's enemy with a sword, grabbed Han Fei, squeezed a teleportation rune, and the two of them instantly disappeared.

The group of people who besieged Zhou Fu couldn't help but change their expression. This person's method was so strange. If that move was used to fight an enemy, at least two strong cultivators would have died in his hand.

However, this person chose to escape. He probably still wasn't confident of turning the situation around.

They didn't care. What they wanted was the small mine, not to kill Zhou Fu.

Zhou Fu and Han Fei's escape sent the remaining six people of the City of Scavengers to almost-certain death. Six against thirteen, there was no chance of survival.

Another moment later.

Boom, Boom, Boom~

There was no need to look. They came so close and so quickly. Those who didn't have the time to escape just now were killed in an instant.

Now that these Sky Openers had been killed, most of the remaining Sea Establishers directly chose to stop fighting and surrender to the enemy. This was because their strong cultivators had died. Even if they didn't surrender, they would either be killed or captured and taken back as mining slaves.

Han Fei couldn't help but think that Tong Hua must have long known this outcome. Therefore, when he came, he had reminded him once and secretly instructed Zhou Fu to help him. Obviously, he had long known this would happen.

But why? Were the Sea Establishers and Sky Openers worthless? They were just given up so easily? This didn't make sense!

Han Fei couldn't help but look at Zhou Fu. "Do we just give up?"

Zhou Fu sighed and said, "No one wants to give up! However, those who achieve great things don't care about trifles. Their death and capture are meaningful. You will find out later. Come with me. We can't stay here long. We have to find a place to hide first and come out when the battle is over."

However, Zhou Fu saw that Han Fei didn't move but looked at him indifferently.

Zhou Fu was puzzled. "Fellow Daoist Ye, what's wrong?"

Han Fei said, "What a pity."

Zhou Fu asked, "Pity? What's a pity?"

Han Fei smiled. "Family should be united. Let me send you to reunite with them, OK?"

In the next moment, Zhou Fu felt that he couldn't move at all. A touch of fear from the depths of his soul struck his heart.

"You…"

Zhou Fu looked at Han Fei in horror, only to find that he couldn't say anything. It was as if something had directly controlled his soul.

It only took Han Fei dozens of seconds to get the answer from Zhou Fu. Han Fei grinned. "So that's how it is. I was wondering why so many non-Ten Thousand Scale Race cultivators were mobilized to a small mine. What a good plan. At this moment, they still want to annex other factions."

Sensing Zhou Fu's horror, Han Fei was not in the mood to refine him into a puppet. He casually slashed out, the Star Bead exploded, and Zhou Fu died.

…

One day later.

Han Fei explored all the small mines in the City of Scavengers with his black-mist body. Almost all the mines had been taken on this day.

Great Dao cracks appeared in the void from time to time.

In the camp of the City of Scavengers, Zhang Beihai stood in the void, and in the void around him, there were six strong masters at Dao Lock level.

On a closer look, these six Dao Lock-level cultivators all had four Dao Locks.

Zhang Beihai said casually, "Wang Yan, come out! Stop hiding. You should know that if I really want to fight, the six of them combined are no match for me."

In the depths of the void, a man in a Daoist robe and a golden crown stepped out. He sneered. "Zhang Beihai, you should have expected this outcome."

Zhang Beihai said indifferently, "Do you think you've won?"

Wang Yan sneered. "Otherwise what? I know you must have a trump card, but do you think I don't have a trump card? When I saw your City of Scavengers send out more than a hundred strong cultivators in the northern expedition, I knew that your City of Scavengers couldn't be as simple as it seems. But at that time, I didn't want to be your enemy. However, your subordinate, Luo Chen, didn't care about morals and attacked half of the strong cultivators of our Grand Development Sect. If I don't fight back, how can my Grand Development Sect have the face to stay in this Infinite Mining Area?"

After that, Wang Yan sneered. "Today, I'll see how strong your trump card is. Do you think you can do whatever you want with 50 cultivators above the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm?"

Zhang Beihai narrowed his eyes. "It's really our city's misfortune. Let me guess who the undercover is… I don't think it's Tong Hua. Chen Di, right?"

Wang Yan snorted coldly but didn't respond.

Boom, Boom~

Suddenly, seven Great Dao cracks appeared in the sky in a row. Amidst the blood rain, Zhang Beihai smiled. "Who told you that I only brought fifty people here?"

Buzz!

Wang Yan's eyes flashed. He seemed to realize that something was wrong. Seven of the life tablets he held had shattered at once, and four of them belonged to Dao Lock-level cultivators.

Even in a head-on clash against a strong master like Zhang Beihai, seven strong masters couldn't have died in a row in the blink of an eye. So, there was only one possibility, which was that they were ambushed.

Wang Yan said coldly, "Impossible. Where did you get so many people?"

Wang Yan didn't believe it. No matter how powerful the City of Scavengers was, it shouldn't have the ability to send so many strong masters to the Infinite Mining Area in a row. They had lost a hundred peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm and perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivators, but now they sent even more than 50? Wasn't it enough? The City of Scavengers was just one of the three factions in the Chaotic Wasteland. Even if it had a lot of resources, there was no reason to do this!

Wang Yan shouted, "Everyone, come with me."

This time, Wang Yan was exceptionally well-prepared. In the northern expedition, his sect was not the only one who was attacked by the City of Scavengers. With his instigation, more than 200 Sky Openers, including 80 peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm and perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivators, were deployed to encircle the City of Scavengers. He didn't believe that the City of Scavengers could bring out a force comparable to theirs.

Wang Yan even included Zhang Beihai himself. At this moment, including himself, there were a total of seven Dao Lock-level powerhouses, and the weakest had at least four Dao Locks.

Furthermore, Wang Yan had five Dao Locks, which could be broken at any time.

However, when Wang Yan launched an attack, Zhang Beihai didn't dodge at all.

Bang!

With an explosion, Zhang Beihai turned into a human-skin silkworm.

Under Wang Yan's blow, the silkworm molted into pieces, and then a voice appeared, "I wonder if I'm included in your plan?"

"Not good. We've been tricked."

At that moment, Wang Yan's eyes almost popped out. He had thought that someone had the same goal as them, which was to destroy the City of Scavengers, so he took action. But now it seemed that Zhang Beihai was behind all this.

Wang Yan was about to leave, but an Octagon Array was activated, and billions of mystic lights formed an ancient maze. It was not that this array couldn't be broken, but it would take time.

During this period of time, Zhang Beihai, a powerhouse with five Dao Locks, would be freely slaughtering people outside. How could he let it happen?!

Unfortunately, it was too late.

Zhang Beihai's real body was revealed in the super mine area of the City of Scavengers. At that moment, he broke his five Dao Locks. Who could possibly resist him here?

In this battle, more than 50 Sky Openers besieged this super mine. Among them, 25 were in the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm, 18 were in the perfected Star Transformation Realm, 2 had four Dao Locks, 3 had three Dao Locks, and 2 had two Dao Locks.

Unfortunately, in the blink of an eye, Zhang Beihai had killed four of the seven Law Lock-level cultivators by surprise, plus three who were in the Perfected Star Transformation Realm.

At this moment, the fangs of the City of Scavengers were truly revealed. Zhang Hua led 23 strong cultivators in the Perfected Star Transformation Realm to attack.

Although there were not as many people as the other party, Zhang Hua had four Dao Locks, and Zhang Beihai had arranged for two powerhouses with three Dao Locks. No one could resist a single blow of the three of them.

A four Dao Lock-level cultivator from the Grand Development Sect was horrified. He broke all his four Dao Locks and called out to another four Dao Lock-level cultivators, "Not good. We've been tricked. Everyone, follow me and fight our way out."

However, at that moment, everyone felt their blood boil. They seemed to have lost their speed. A huge black hole opened in the sky, erupting with a terrifying suction power. This power could actually suck in the power of their Great Dao. At the same time, it absorbed all the surrounding power of heaven and earth.

"Puff ~"

Zhang Beihai pierced the soul of the four Dao Lock-level cultivators of the Grand Development Sect with a single blow, grabbed his Star Bead, and said arrogantly, "It's a pity that you haven't condensed the fifth Dao Lock. Even if you have, Great Daos will vary in strength. How can your Great Dao compare to mine?"

Rumble!

A powerhouse with four Dao Locks had died so easily.

Han Fei, who happened to turn into a black mist and slowly strolled over, saw this scene clearly.
