Longevity Gu Dao: Start From Refining Infatuation Gu

Chapter 67: The Attack on the Red Gold Vein, Chaos is Imminent

"What does the Lord want us to do?" Ji Bingyu curiously looked at Zhou Sui.

"Well, the reason I brought you all down here this time is to ask what you think the underground shelter is lacking. We need to prepare in advance," Zhou Sui explained.

"Even though it's a shelter, we still need to live comfortably," Ji Bingyu said.

Zhou Sui smiled faintly. After all, the underground shelter was still just a crude cave, filled with dirt and very primitive. It wasn't very comfortable to live in. So he wanted his companions to make some improvements and make the underground shelter more comfortable. If a war really broke out, they might have to hide here for a long time.

"Lord, the underground tunnels are too dark. Although we Qi Refining cultivators can see in the dark, living in darkness for a long time is still uncomfortable," Ji Bingyu suggested. "I suggest buying some night pearls. Even if we are underground, it will be as bright as day."

Although night pearls were considered treasures in the mortal world and were expensive, in the cultivation world, they were just ordinary minerals and had little use other than lighting. One piece of low-grade spirit stone could buy a large quantity of night pearls.

"Lord, I think we also need to buy some wooden beds, bedding, pots, bowls, and other things," Mu Ziyan said. "Even if we live in the underground shelter, we still need to do laundry and cook."

Mu Ziyan wanted to decorate the shelter like an ordinary home and buy various furniture.

"Good, you can all go and buy them," Zhou Sui nodded in satisfaction.

"But what about the air and water source in the underground shelter? Can we live there for a long time?" Xia Jingyan expressed her concerns.

"That's not a problem at all," Zhou Sui smiled. "Underground, there is a second-grade spiritual vein. As long as we set up a Spirit Gathering formation, we can gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and use it as air. Even without the assistance of the spiritual vein, we have plenty of spirit stones that can be converted into air. As for the water source, that's even less of a problem. When we were digging the underground tunnels, I found many underground water sources. As long as we tap into them, we'll have a continuous supply of underground water."

He assured them that these were not problems at all. Air, water, and sunlight were all readily available.

"In that case, I have nothing more to say," Xia Jingyan nodded. She looked at her husband with great tenderness. He truly lived up to her expectations. He always considered every detail, big and small. If they had children, he would surely be a good father.

Thinking of this, her face blushed slightly, as if she had thought of a distant future.

...

A few days later, the underground shelter had been fully furnished by Ji Bingyu, Xia Jingyan, and Mu Ziyan. All kinds of living facilities, such as pots, bowls, bedding, and various furniture, had been purchased. Even if they moved in now, there would be no problem.

Of course, it was not yet time to move in. After all, no matter how well-equipped the interior was, it was still an underground living space and naturally not as comfortable as living on the surface. The underground shelter was just a refuge, and it would not be activated unless absolutely necessary.

Crash...

At this moment, in a quiet room, Zhou Sui took another Golden Marrow Pill.

Instantly, the immense medicinal power was rapidly transformed and instantly entered deep within his body, flowing into his meridians, causing a geometric increase in the true essence in his dantian and sea of qi.

The medicinal power of a single Golden Marrow Pill was enough to save him several months of arduous cultivation.

He circulated the Divine Gu Sutra, and the true essence in his body circulated round after round, advancing further towards the peak of the sixth layer of Qi Refining.

"It's almost there, my cultivation is about to reach the peak of the sixth layer of Qi Refining."

Zhou Sui glanced at the virtual panel and found that after taking the Golden Marrow Pill, his cultivation had reached 95% of the sixth layer of Qi Refining. With just 5% more, he would be able to break through to the seventh layer of Qi Refining.

By then, he would be a cultivator in the later stage of Qi Refining.

Thanks to the appearance of the Xuanbao Tower auction, otherwise, where could he buy such good pills?

His cultivation would not have improved so rapidly.

"In a while, I will be able to attempt a breakthrough to the seventh layer of Qi Refining."

Zhou Sui clenched his fist and felt very satisfied. The immense power of true essence in his body gave him a great sense of security.

No matter how good the refuge was, it could never compare to the sense of security brought by his own cultivation.

If he were a Foundation Building cultivator or even a Gold Core cultivator, there would be no need to build any refuge.

Just his own cultivation alone would be enough to crush all enemies. Who would dare to harm him?

"Hmm?!"

Just at this moment, Zhou Sui felt a movement in his heart. He sensed a message coming from the Golden Devouring Worm. After all, there were still hundreds of Golden Devouring Worms staying in the Red Gold Vein and had not returned.

Because the Red Gold Vein was the dining hall for the Golden Devouring Worms, they naturally would not give up such a good place.

Suddenly, he sensed a series of images from the Golden Devouring Worm. It seemed that several black-clothed cultivators suddenly appeared in the Red Gold Vein and began to massacre the miners inside.

Then, intense battles erupted throughout the entire vein.

The cultivators on both sides fought, and spells appeared in the air, causing the tunnels to collapse.

A large amount of rubble fell.

Dust filled the air.

The images abruptly stopped because the Golden Devouring Worms sensed danger and all hid deep within the vein, infiltrating the depths of the earth, avoiding contact with these cultivators.

After all, they were only here to devour the red gold and had no intention of conflicting with these cultivators.

When encountering unfamiliar cultivators, they would avoid them.

This was also the order Zhou Sui had given them.

"Could it be that someone attacked the Red Gold Vein of the Immortal Mist Sect? Could it be that the Shadow Demon Sect really intends to confront the Immortal Mist Sect and start a full-scale war?" Zhou Sui's eyes revealed a glimmer of light.

From the images transmitted by the Golden Devouring Worm, those black-clothed cultivators exuded an evil and dark aura.

Apart from demonic cultivators, it was basically impossible for anyone else.

Although he didn't know if the Shadow Demon Sect was really at war with the Immortal Mist Sect, it was a fact that the demonic cultivators attacked the Red Gold Vein.

"It's chaos, it's really going to be chaos."

Zhou Sui suddenly felt a sense of urgency. Although he had long anticipated something similar, when it really happened, he still felt nervous.

After all, no matter how many preparations he made, it was difficult to guarantee that there would be no other accidents.

As expected, as he had expected.

The next day, Misty Cloud City received news of the attack on the Red Gold Vein by demonic cultivators.

Most of the Immortal Mist Sect cultivators died in this attack, and a large number of miner cultivators also met a tragic end.

Only a few cautious cultivators were able to return alive.

They also hurried back to Misty Cloud City to avoid this disaster.
