I cast eternal life with the seeds of Tao

Chapter 8: Escape from the jaws of death

With the second explosion in Mine No. 18, the entire mining area shook.

It even alarmed the patrolling disciples of Jiufeng Law Enforcement Hall.

A team of outer law enforcement disciples rushed to Mine No. 18 to investigate the cause of the tremor.

At this time, the crowd outside Mine No. 18 was blocked, and Deacon Liu stood in the center of the crowd covered in dust and with a gloomy face.

"Liu Hong, what happened?"

The leader of the law enforcement team, a short-haired young man with a strong build and bright eyes, asked in a deep voice.

Seeing the visitor, Liu Hong's expression changed and he quickly stepped forward to greet him.

"Captain Wu, why are you here? I just got here. There was a mine collapse inside."

Although Liu Hong is a deacon, these law enforcement disciples are all formal disciples of the outer sect and have the same status as him.

The captain Wu in front of him was even more powerful and had a profound background. He did not dare to neglect him at all.

Upon hearing this, Captain Wu frowned and said, "Why don't you go and see what the casualties are inside? The collapse of the mine is not a trivial matter."

"Yes!"

Liu Hong quickly led several handyman disciples and entered the mine first.

Seeing that there was no danger inside, Captain Wu just waved and led a group of law enforcement disciples into it.

When everyone entered the mine, they saw a very miserable scene.

Under the rubble on the ground, the bodies of several handyman disciples were half exposed and half covered. Blood was flowing on the ground, and there were broken limbs and arms. Looking around, there was no survivor.

Liu Hong searched the mine and finally fixed his gaze on the corner of the mine.

A young man was pinned down by a stone slab, with blood bleeding from the corner of his mouth, his eyes turned white, and he looked dead.

"This kid is dead too."

This figure was none other than Zhao Heng. Although the collapse of the mine and the explosion just now were extremely strange.

But at least after killing this disobedient boy, Liu Hong could barely accept it.

"Quickly, take these corpses out!"

Liu Hong immediately gave an order to a group of servant disciples.

While everyone was cleaning up the bodies.

"Ahem...!"

Suddenly, a weak cough came from the corner of the mine, attracting everyone's attention.

Zhao Heng, who had been crushed to death by the stone slab, stubbornly opened his eyes again.

"Help...help, I can still...rescue!"

Everyone was shocked, and Liu Hong's eyes widened even more. After a moment's hesitation, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he approached Zhao Heng.

Captain Wu on the side said at this time: "You two, go and rescue the survivors and send them to be healed."

Two law enforcement disciples rushed forward to rescue Zhao Heng from under the stone slab, while Liu Hong was forced to stop.

With the support of two law enforcement disciples, Zhao Heng walked hard out of the cave and looked back at Liu Hong.

The latter had a sinister look on his face and stared at Zhao Heng, with the murderous intent in his eyes almost uncontrollable.

But Liu Hong knew that with the law enforcement team here, he had no chance to take action.

After everyone had cleaned up the mine, Captain Wu said to Liu Hong.

"Deacon Liu, this time the mine collapsed and many handyman disciples died. As the deacon in charge of the mining area, you are responsible for a lot of crimes." Captain Wu said in a bad tone.

Liu Hong on the side was shocked when he heard this.

He knew that the accident in the mine could be major or minor. If Captain Wu wanted to pursue the case, he could even be arrested in the law enforcement hall, interrogated strictly, and punished for dereliction of duty.

It would be terrible if Zhao Heng, who had just been taken away, confessed some other secrets.

Liu Hong hurriedly whispered: "Captain Wu, this was an accident. I didn't want it to happen. You have to help me."

Captain Wu heard the words and grinned: "It's easy to talk, we are old acquaintances, so of course I am looking for you.

However, I don’t have the final say on this matter alone. I have to lobby for you and owe others favors for this matter, which is a bit difficult..."

Hearing this, Liu Hong's mouth twitched slightly, knowing what the other party meant.

Helpless, he could only take out a bag full of Xuan Jing from his body and stuff it to Captain Wu with great pain.

"Captain Wu, please give me a nice word. This is my little thought!"

Captain Wu took the package, weighed it in his hand, and quickly stuffed it into his pocket. Then he patted Liu Hong on the shoulder with satisfaction.

"Don't worry, Deacon Liu, this matter will be taken care of by me. Brothers, close the team!"

Captain Wu led his men and walked away, leaving only Liu Hong with a livid face.

Thinking back on everything that happened today, including the explosion at the mine entrance and Zhao Heng's lucky survival, he felt extremely strange, but he could not find direct evidence.

"This matter must be related to Zhao Heng, brat, even if I can't kill you, my job as a deacon will be in vain!"

An hour later, Zhao Heng had returned to Miscellaneous Peak.

The disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall were not so kind and took one of his handyman disciples for treatment. Zhao Heng went and bought a few packs of herbal medicines by himself and came back just to show off.

Sitting on the wooden bed in the dormitory now, Zhao Heng recalled what happened in the mine today, and he still felt very sorry in his heart.

In the mine, he used the thunderstorm beads and his own force to eliminate all the handyman disciples who wanted to attack him.

He also pretended that the mine collapsed and placed a thunder bead at the entrance of the cave.

All this was done to kill Liu Hong and avoid future troubles.

Once the thunder bead explodes and the energy is released, it will not leave any traces, and no one will guess that it was done by him.

This plan was originally perfect, but I didn't expect Liu Hong to be so alert and avoid this fatal disaster.

"After this incident, Liu Hong will definitely suspect that the deaths of Deng Xing, Du Changqing, and those menial disciples in the mine are all related to me. I'm afraid he will fight me to the death!"

Zhao Heng couldn't help rubbing his forehead to relieve his anxiety.

He was really helpless. When he came to this world, he just wanted to stay in the sect and practice well, but he got into big trouble with Liu Hong.

Zhao Heng also thought about seeking help from Yun Qingxue. With the other party's strength and identity, he was naturally not afraid of Liu Hong.

But Zhao Heng denied this idea. As the saying goes, "Where there are women, there are rivers and lakes", let alone a stunning beauty like Yun Qingxue.

Once he had an intersection with her, who knows how much trouble he would cause. At that time, wouldn't there be more people who wanted to harm him?

"No, I have to rely on myself for this. In order to be able to eat and sleep well in the future, this Liu Hong... must die!

There are still twenty days before the errand test. I'm sure Liu Hong will never let me pass. I must find a way to pass the test first, leave the mining area, and then find a way to kill him."

Zhao Heng made up his mind and immediately prepared for the errand test.

Last night, Zhao Heng, who took a body-tempering pill, had already broken through to the seventh level of the body-tempering realm.

With the perfectly transformed Qingsong Jue, his strength can completely crush ordinary warriors of the same level, and he can even fight against the eighth-level warriors of the body-tempering realm.

In addition, the power of the body-tempering pill has not been fully digested. It is estimated that in the next few days, his cultivation speed will increase a lot.

"It's a pity that I still haven't started with the Stone-Splitting Fist. If I can get started with this set of martial arts before the errand test, or if my cultivation has another breakthrough, my chances of passing the test will be higher!"

And it is obviously difficult to achieve these two points with ordinary means, and I still have to rely on the "Dao Seed Dice".

Zhao Heng took out all his belongings.

A red bellyband with amazing defensive power, a thunder bead, a black gold leopard head knife, a bag of lime powder, and half a bottle of corpse powder.

There are also sixty black crystals left from the previous dice roll.

More than sixty black crystals are only enough to roll the dice six times. It is definitely not enough to accumulate "luck stealing", but you can try your luck.

At worst, after drawing the steal, you can go around the nine peaks of the sect and maybe get something good like "thunder bead".

Making up his mind, with the mentality of giving it a try, Zhao Heng consumed ten black crystals and rolled the dice again.

"Hua La La..."

The dice spun for a while and suddenly froze.

"Buzz..."

Two bright red dots appeared in front of Zhao Heng.

"Shake skill 2 'Perfect Transformation' can transform all items except living things. Do you want to use it now?"

"It's actually two dots!"

Zhao Heng's eyes suddenly shrank, and he couldn't help but feel excited.

When the dice modified the Qingsong Jue, not only did the skill level rise by one level, but his own cultivation speed also increased several times. The effectiveness was obvious.

Zhao Heng only thought for a moment and then directly ordered: "Use the skill!"

The next moment, a silver light ball appeared in front of Zhao Heng.

"Please put in the item."

Zhao Heng immediately reached into his arms and took out a light yellow book.

"The ordinary lower-level martial arts "Stone Splitting Fist"."

This martial arts was obtained by Zhao Heng when he killed Deng Xing at the foot of Niujiao Mountain.

With this martial arts, Deng Xing completely suppressed Zhao Heng. If he hadn't used a dirty trick, he would have died.

Zhao Heng also studied this Stone Splitting Fist for a while, but he couldn't even "get started".

Usually, the stages of advancement of martial arts are divided into: entry, minor success, intermediate success, and major success.

Zhao Heng estimated his talent. If he wanted to practice the Stone Splitting Fist to major success, it would be impossible without thirty to fifty years, or even a lifetime.

But now with the perfect transformation of the Dao Seed Dice, everything has turned around.

Zhao Heng resolutely threw the "Stone Splitting Fist" into the light ball...
