Chapter 67: 67: Red Gold Mine Vein under Attack,
“What does the gentleman want us to do?”
Ji Bingyu looked curiously at Zhou Sui.
“Even if it is a refuge, we should make our lives better and more comfortable.”
Zhou Sui smiled slightly.
After all, this underground haven was still basically a rough excavation, with dirt everywhere. It was very primitive.
Living here was not comfortable.
Consequently, he wanted his partners to do some renovations to make this underground haven more comfortable.
If war really broke out, they might have to hide in this place for a long time.
“Sir, the underground tunnels are still too dark. Although we cultivators can see in the dark, living in darkness for a long time will be uncomfortable.”
“I suggest buying some Luminous Pearls, so that even underground, it can be as bright as daylight.”
Ji Bingyu suggested.
Although Luminous Pearls were treasures in the secular world and quite expensive, they were merely common ore in the world of cultivation. Other than providing light, they had not many uses.
One could buy a bunch of Luminous Pearls with a single Lower Grade Spirit Stone.
“Sir, I think we need to buy items like wooden beds, bedding, pots and pans.”
“Even if we live in an underground refuge, we must still need to wash clothes and cook meals.”
Mu Ziyi wanted to decorate the refuge just like an ordinary home and wanted to purchase various types of furniture.
“Good, we can purchase all of that.”
Zhou Sui nodded satisfactorily.
“But what about the air quality and water supply in the underground haven? Can they support long-term survival?”
Xia Jingyan voiced her worries.
“These are not problems at all.”
Zhou Sui laughed, “There’s a second-degree Spirit Vein right underneath us. We just need to arrange a Spirit Gathering Array, and we can use nature’s spiritual energy as our air to breathe underground. Even without the help of a Spirit Vein, we have plenty of Spirit Stones which can be converted into air.
As for the water supply, it’s even less of an issue. When we were digging the underground passage, I found many underground water sources. Once we connect them, we’ll have a continuous supply of fresh water.”
He indicated that these were not problems at all. Air, water, sunshine, they had it all.
“”If that’s the case, then I have nothing more to say.””
Xia Jingyan nodded. She gazed gently at her man. Indeed, the man she had set her heart on always considered everything thoroughly.
If they had children, he would probably be a good father.
Thinking of this, her pretty face blushed faintly, as if she saw a far-reaching future.
Several days later.
The underground haven was thoroughly decorated by Ji Bingyu, Xia Jingyan, and Mu Ziyi. They set up all kinds of living facilities, bought pots, pans, bed sheets, quilts, all sorts of furniture.
Even if they moved in now, there wouldn’t be any issues.
Of course, it wasn’t time to move in yet.
Even if the haven was fully equipped, it was still an underground dwelling and naturally couldn’t compare with the living conditions on the surface.
The haven was just a refuge, and unless it was absolutely necessary, it wouldn’t be activated.
Meanwhile, Zhou Sui took another Golden Marrow Pill in the quiet chamber.
Instantly, the mighty medicinal power was rapidly transformed, quickly penetrating his body, flowing into his channels and augmenting his True Yuan in his Dantian Qi Sea by a geometric progression.
The medicinal power of one Golden Marrow Pill could save him months of hard cultivation.
He channeled the Insect God Sutra, and the True Yuan within his body circulated again and again, taking him closer to the peak state of Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer.
“I’m close. My cultivation level is almost reaching the peak of Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer.”
After Zhou Sui checked the interface, he found that after taking one Gold Marrow Pill, his cultivation level had reached 95% of the sixth layer of Qi cultivation. He only needed to reach another 5% to break through to Qi cultivation seventh layer.
Then, he would be a Late Qi Cultivation cultivator.
Thanks to the Xuanbao Tower auction, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to buy such good pills.
His cultivation level wouldn’t have been able to progress this quickly.
“In a little while, I’ll be able to try breaking through to Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer.”
Zhou Sui clenched his fist, feeling very satisfied. The enormous power of True Yuan in his body gave him a great sense of security.
No matter how good the refuge was, it couldn’t compare to the security brought by his own cultivation.
If he was a Foundation-Building cultivator, or even a Golden Core Master, he wouldn’t need a refuge at all.
His own cultivation level alone could crush all evil creatures. Who would dare to harm him then?
“Huh?!”
At this moment, Zhou Sui’s heart stirred. He sensed some information transmitted from the Gold Eating Bug. After all, there were still hundreds of Gold Eating Bugs in the Red Gold Mine that hadn’t returned.
That Red Gold Mine was the food court for the Gold Eating Bugs, they wouldn’t give up such a good place that readily.
Instantly, he perceived scenes from the Gold Eating Bug. It seemed like some black robed cultivators had suddenly appeared in the Red Gold Mine and started a massacre on the miners.
Fierce battles immediately erupted throughout the mine.
As the cultivators on both sides fought, collapses occurred throughout the mine due to the deployment of skills.
A lot of rubble fell, followed by clouds of dust.
The scenes ended abruptly, as the Gold Eating Bugs sensed the danger and hurriedly burrowed deep into the mine, avoiding any confrontation with these cultivators.
After all, they were only there to consume the Red Gold. They had no intention of getting into a conflict with these cultivators.
When they encountered unfamiliar cultivators, they avoided them as much as possible.
This was also the command Zhou Sui had given them.
“Could it be? Has the Red Gold Mine of the Immortal Mist Sect been attacked? Has the Ghost Demon Sect decided to directly confront the Immortal Mist Sect and initiate a full-scale war?” Zhou Sui’s eyes shone with a hint of sharpness.
Based on the scenes transmitted from the Gold Eating Bug, the black-robed cultivators were shrouded in an evil, dark aura.
Apart from demon cultivators, they could hardly be any other cultivators.
Although he hadn’t confirmed whether the Ghost Demon Sect had really gone to war with the Immortal Mist Sect, the fact that the Demon Cultivators had attacked the Red Gold Mine was irrefutable.
“Things are about to get chaotic.”
Zhou Sui instantly felt a sense of urgency wash over him. Although he had anticipated such events, he couldn’t help but feel uptight when they actually happened.
No matter how much preparation he made, it was still hard to ensure that unexpected accidents wouldn’t occur.
Just as he had predicted.
The next day, news of the attack on the Red Gold Mine by demon cultivators reached Misty Cloud City.
Most of the Immortal Mist Sect’s cultivators died in the ambush. Many mining cultivators met the same fate.
Only a minority of cautious cultivators managed to survive and flee.
They hurriedly returned to Misty Cloud City to seek refuge from the calamity..
