Chapter 452 Arrival at Luocang Mountain
Such a scene not only happened in the East Village, but also in the South, West, and North Villages. However, because there were masters of golden elixirs in charge of the North and South Villages, the mining slaves there were relatively docile.
Of course, not all of the mining slaves in the Luocang Mountain Spirit Vein were once foundation-building monks. On the contrary, there were still quite few foundation-building monks. The total number of the four strongholds would never exceed fifty.
As for why the foundation-building monks are captured here, the main reason is that the perception of the foundation-building monks is far superior to that of ordinary mining slaves, and it is easier to discover medium-grade spiritual stones.
Because although Luocang Mountain has middle-grade spiritual veins, not all the spiritual stones produced are middle-grade spiritual stones. On the contrary, middle-grade spiritual stones are also very rare here.
When Jiao Yushan captured Wu De and his entourage and came here, he wanted to use these people as guiding lights in order to mine more medium-grade spiritual stones.
Xizhai.
The team, as twisted as earthworms, was exiting the south gate of the camp, then turned a corner and slowly entered the mine to the east of the camp.
Outside the mine, there is a bronze shelf one foot long and wide, which supports a blue light barrier. Whether entering or coming out of the mine, all mine slaves must pass through the barrier.
As for the function, all the mine slaves here know that it is to detect whether there are hidden spiritual stones. Because the storage bags on their bodies have been taken away, if they have hidden spiritual stones, they will definitely not be able to hide them from the barrier detection.
There is a row of extraordinary guards on the left and right of the barrier, standing motionless like sculptures.
There is still a distance of three feet between the barrier and the mine. There is a strip-shaped stone table on both sides of this road. Behind the stone table sits an imposing old man, who is obviously a master of foundation building.
The two of them are the ones responsible for collecting spiritual stones every day.
Finally, the team, writhing like earthworms, all entered the mine.
Outside, except for the guards outside the mine who remained stationary, everyone else dispersed. Some were chatting, some were going back to their rooms to practice, some were hiding in their rooms doing push-ups...
What no one noticed was that in a seemingly peaceful hilly jungle ten miles away from Xizhai, there were three pairs of eyes looking at the camp and the tower outside from a distance.
"It's too far away to see clearly."
Li Shushu withdrew his gaze. Even if he was already in the early stage of the Golden Elixir, it was difficult to see people ten miles away with his eyesight alone. He could only see shadows twisting like ants.
Luo Qingchen also withdrew his gaze and remained silent.
Needless to say, Lu Li, who had the lowest cultivation level, could see a few towers more clearly, but the camp square was just a dark patch in his eyes, and then these black shadows disappeared again.
"What's going on?" Li Shushu rarely looked at Lu Li seriously.
Lu Li's eyes flashed and he looked at the two of them and said, "Brothers, you Chengtian Palace and Yuxu Palace should also have intermediate spiritual veins, right? Are the defenses as strict as this?"
Li Shushu said, "That's natural. Intermediate spiritual veins are the highest level in Nandou. In order to prevent them from being robbed by casual cultivators, it is indispensable to have golden elixir masters in charge."
Luo Qingchen nodded, cherishing the words like gold, "That's true."
Lu Li stared at the tower again and said, "Do you know, besides the golden elixir masters, whether there are any other means for middle-grade spiritual veins? For example, a large formation or something..."
Li Shushu said, "A large formation is impossible, but we need to pay attention to the tower."
"tower?"
"Well, this kind of tower is not just as simple as a sentry post, inside..." Li Shushu is worthy of being the first core of Chengtian Palace, and he directly told the secret of the tower accurately.
Lu Li was secretly shocked after hearing this, thinking that it was a good thing that he had asked in advance, otherwise he might have caused big trouble if he was careless.
After Li Shushu finished speaking, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Brother, your invisible array is very good. Can it be moved with you? If it is possible, why don't we just walk in with a big show?"
Luo Qingchen also looked at Lu Li. They had all tested the invisible formation, and the conclusions they came to shocked both of them.
Because, when they stood outside the formation, Lu Li in front of them disappeared out of thin air. Neither their spiritual consciousness nor their naked eyes could detect Lu Li's existence, but the scenery in front of them was exactly the same as before.
After hearing this, Lu Li smiled bitterly and shook his head, "No, the picture displayed after the invisible array is activated is a freeze-frame picture of the moment it was activated.
For example, if we activate the invisible formation here and then walk into the opponent's camp, outsiders will see a moving jungle. I don't need to explain the consequences, right? "
"Well..."
Li Shushu felt helpless after hearing this, "Okay, it seems that I have overthought it. So what should you do now? Or, go in directly? With our strength, we can restrain those two old Jindan men. It shouldn’t be a problem.”
"No!" Luo Qingchen shook his head and said, "The situation inside is still unclear. It would be okay if there are only two of them. But if a third golden elixir master appears, wouldn't Brother Lu be in danger?
To take a step back, even if there is no third golden elixir master, there will definitely not be too few foundation-building monks here. Before Brother Lu could find him, he was surrounded by a group of foundation-building monks. The consequences... ..."
"This won't work, that won't work either. Why don't you come up with a solution?" Li Shushu folded his fan and flapped.
"How about this." Lu Li frowned and thought for a moment, "I'll go find the person first. When I find the person, or when I run into trouble, I'll send a signal to notify you..."
"one person?"
"Yes, I will be less conspicuous if I go in alone, and I have a way to hide my breath. As long as I don't run into the two Jindan masters, I should be safe. If I really meet them, I will send a signal to notify you, and then I will trouble you two brothers to rescue me."
Luo Qingchen nodded and said, "I think this is indeed the best way. After all, we are only here to save people, not to kill people. If we really kill the two Jindan elders of Taixuan Dao Sect, I am afraid it will be difficult to explain to the sect..."
"Tsk, they all did such despicable things, and they still have to explain their ass! But you are right, we are here to save people, and we must first find the people we want to save."
After Li Shushu finished speaking, he looked at Lu Li, "How are you going to contact us?"
Lu Li smiled and took out a large red cylindrical object, "This is the starry sky I bought in Yulong City..."
Hearing Lu Li say this, Li Shushu immediately understood that Lu Li might have made plans long ago, and he no longer stopped him. He just reminded him to be careful and let Lu Li leave alone.
The distance from this hill to the camp is quite long. After Lu Li reached the foot of the hill, he did not rush to approach the camp, but came behind a big rock to secretly plan.
According to Li Shushu and the others, the tower is a sentry post. In order to prevent sneak attacks, it is usually guarded by two people, that is, one patrols outside and the other guards the sound transmission array inside the tower.
If the patrol outside has an accident, the person guarding the sound transmission array inside will immediately activate the sound transmission array to notify the garrison elders, and ring the alarm to inform the guards in the camp...
