liation now, will we still be able to survive in the zone later" Lu Xia Tian said in a low voice. 。"Alright, since Senior Brother Lu is so confident, let's give it our all!" 。Besides Qian Xu, most pe...In fact, before Cao Haihua could voice his thoughts, the situation began to shift in their favor. The twelve cultivators from Huangya Valley who had recently arrived smelled the blood and paled. Without a word, an elder among them summoned a stone monster with rocky armor and charged into the mine, eager to avenge his fellow disciples.
Because the entrance of the mine was small, the battle inside became extremely fierce again. Six people went in and fought fiercely.
“Just now, let's attack! Those flying cavalry tribes just left, and even if they return, it will take some time. Plus, there are three Nascent Soul Stage monks guarding the mine entrance. They can hold on for a while. We can attack from two sides!” Cao Haihua laughed loudly and charged ahead.
"What are we waiting for, let's charge!" After hiding for a while, seeing the situation clear, everyone's morale naturally soared.
“Brother Lu, I’ll take the lead!” Peng Da said with a farmer's hearty voice, letting out a bellow as he brought out a small, earthy-yellow fan and swung it past Lu Xiaoteng.
Here's the translation:> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
While Wu Yan's magic weapon was a recast red ring, it surprisingly reached the level of a superior artifact, its aura extremely powerful.
Lu Xia Tian was slightly taken aback. He pointed forward with his hand. Although he had been keeping a low profile in the past, the fact that he had suppressed Yuan Hao of the Gu Jian Sect and convinced Luo Qian, a gifted cultivator from Ling Xiao Palace, to submit, even causing the proud Su Qing to lower her noble head, was already well-known by many people. Luo Qian's Dan Yuan artifact thunder spear and Yuan Hao's scorching sun twin arm swords were already famous. As long as one had a wide network of contacts, even if they guessed, they could guess that he also possessed a Dan Yuan artifact.
Since that's the case, there's no need to be too secretive. Besides, even if the Flying Cavalry Tribe departs, they could still return in a rush. It's best to strike quickly and decisively.
After a moment's thought, a scorching sword qi erupted. A fiery red light flashed, striking first, landing on the spear of a mid-stage Yellow Cliff Valley cultivator. The opponent's weapon was cleaved in two, his face ashen. A red light had flashed across his neck, and his large head exploded three feet away.
“A fire-attribute dan yuan artifact!” Whether it was the cultivators from Huangya Cave or people like Cao Haihua, they were all shocked beyond measure. After all, seeing such a powerful artifact with their own eyes, compared to the artifacts in their hands, they felt a bit ashamed.
Most of the people present were ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators. Even Cao Haihua, the peak master of a domain, only wielded an ancient Huá sword, which was just a top-grade magic weapon. After all, even for Golden Core cultivators, their dan yuans weren't something they could just obtain. Magic weapons imbued with dan yuan were only possessed by the most trusted disciples or descendants. As for Golden Core cultivators themselves, their consumption was significant. If too many dan yuan magic weapons were given out, it would also harm their foundation.
In the entire Lingxiao Palace, among nearly a thousand foundation-building disciples, only over thirty had a dan yuan artifact. Cao Haihua couldn't help but feel both envy and jealousy. He had become a domain master for some years, accumulating wealth over so many years, and he had only managed to get himself a top-grade magic weapon. Unexpectedly, Lu Xiaoteng, a newcomer who hadn't even finished his foundation building stage for long, had lower cultivation than him, but with that fire-type dan yuan artifact, his strength surpassed him. With one strike, he killed a middle-stage foundation-building cultivator. If he wanted to do the same, it would be extremely difficult. But with a dan yuan artifact, it was done so easily.
“Kill!” Seeing Lu Xiaoteng easily cleave a man in half, the Dai brothers and the other cultivators became even more radical. Outside the mine shaft, the number of Huangya Valley cultivators had dwindled to five. Their group of nine rushed over, now holding an absolute numerical advantage. Even if the enemy cultivators inside the mine shaft wanted to break out now, it wouldn't be easy.
“Those damn Flying Cavalry bandits, there’s a whole enemy force of cultivators hiding right here. How could we not have noticed” The cultivator from across in Huangya Valley saw the menacing group approaching and immediately lost one of their own in the initial clash, leaving him feeling furious and frustrated.
“Senior Brother Xu, we’ve been ambushed! The situation is dire, retreat quickly!” A Huangya Valley cultivator outside shouted in a hurry.
>
"What the hell!" came a voice, laced with anger and surprise.
“Our savior has finally arrived! Kill!” Before entering the mine, the Upper Qing cultivators originally thought they were destined to die. After all, they were trapped inside the mine. Once hostile cultivators kept rushing in, after their mana and pills were depleted, there would be no hope of survival. Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, other cultivators came.”
The blazing Flame-Leaving Fire Sword dashed towards a Foundation Establishment late-stage cultivator outside the mine. The burly man saw that things were not looking good; several of his fellow disciples had fought valiantly, but in the blink of an eye, two more fell. The opponent's attack was fierce, and even if all the disciples inside the mine came out to fight, facing such a terrifying Dan Yuan magical artifact, they would be utterly defeated at this point.
A strong man from the later stage of foundation establishment in Huangya Valley roared, his cloak swirling like a top and charging towards the Fiery Flame Sword. The cloak was also a decent magic weapon, its tip constantly clashing with the Fiery Flame Sword, being burnt to ashes intermittently. However, for a moment, the Fiery Flame Sword was actually held back by it. The strong man took the opportunity to shoot backwards, leaving his fellow disciples behind and trying to escape.
However, the cunning Cao Haihua had already set his sights on this man. How could he allow this strongman to escape so easily He knew this man was no match for Lu Xiaoteng and took the initiative to block the strongman's path of retreat. By the time the strongman dealt with Lu Xiaoteng's blazing fire sword, he had already exhausted his strength. Where could he find the energy to defend against Cao Haihua, whose strength was on par with his Almost as soon as he turned and took a few steps, a gleaming blade pierced through his body, penetrating his chest.
"Lu shidi, I'm sorry for taking the lead. Someone with your skill and a Danyan artifact like yours must not be short on merit points," Cao Haihua turned his grip on the hilt, the blade twisting within the strongman's body, completely severing his life force. One merit point earned.
"Since Brother Cao has succeeded, it naturally belongs to Brother Cao." Lu Xia Tian nodded. The other disciples' battles were also nearing their final moments. He didn't interfere any further. After all, everyone wanted merit points. In a battle they were sure to win, interfering would only cause others to be wary. One enemy cultivator sprang from the mine shaft, only to be pierced through the heart by the blazing Flameless Sword. Even those behind them, despite facing the desperate counterattack of the Shangqing Sect, dared not come out recklessly anymore.
The Dai brothers were skilled and bold. They couldn't contain themselves any longer, especially since they now held the upper hand. Leading the charge, they stormed into the mine. With someone taking the lead, the others naturally followed suit.
>
After a fierce battle in the mine, quite a few parts collapsed. However, the Dai brothers and others came out with excited expressions. This battle had yielded some gains for almost everyone, besides merit points, their storage pouches were also quite full. However, when they opened them, they were somewhat disappointed. Perhaps because they had been attacking Xuan Ye City for some time and consumed a lot, there were only one or two ordinary magical artifacts in the storage pouches. There were very few spirit stones and pills.

On the contrary, the many Qi refining cultivators who were rescued from the mine were overjoyed. They brought out some wind attribute spirit stones, and everyone shared them. Only the Shangqing Sect suffered heavy losses. Only three of their strongest foundation building late stage cultivators came out, each with a dejected face. Although they also received merit points, all their other fellow disciples died tragically. Each of them was more or less injured, so they didn't stay long. They thanked him solemnly and then left directly.
