Sword Breaks Nine Heavens
Chapter 207: Subterranean cliff
After separated from Chu Huaishan, Ji Tianxing and Yun Yao continued to walk deep into the vein.
The light in the mine is dim, and there is a stone lamp every tens of meters on the stone walls on both sides.
The ground and cave walls are dark brown rock layers, and occasionally some areas will reveal layers of ore.
Those ores are colorful and contain the aura of the five elements, which can only be formed after thousands of years of growth.
The craftsmen of the Qingtianzong Refining Hall will smelt the mined ores to extract purer five element spiritual energy and materials for forging weapons and equipment.
In addition, some gems will appear in some areas with higher vein purity.
Those gems contain a strong five-element vitality, which can be used by the martial artist to practice, or used for array formation and refining.
All in all, mineral veins are very important resources for Zongmen.
In order to mine the veins of Longshan, the Great Sky School once dug hundreds of deep mine tunnels underground.
After Tianjianzong took over Longshan, he excavated vigorously, increasing the number of mine tunnels to nearly two hundred, and deeper underground.
Many mine tunnels are connected to each other, creating many intersections, which are as complicated as a maze.
Fortunately, Chu Huaishan had long given Yunyao a map of the distribution of mine roads, so that the two talents would not get lost in the endless crossroads.
After half an hour, the two of them walked for more than ten miles along the dark and tortuous mine tunnel, and finally reached the scene of the incident.
This is the end of the mine tunnel. It is an open space with a radius of nearly 100 meters, just like an empty and dark hall.
On the walls of the surrounding cave, layers of ore are clearly visible.
Between each ore layer, there are seven or eight meters thick rock layers, and each ore layer is more than three meters thick and covered with colorful ore.
Yunyao looked around and said in a deep voice: "At the time of the incident, the ten handyman disciples of the team were mining ore in this area."
Ji Tianxing looked around for a while, and he saw a lot of scattered ores scattered on the clearing not far away, and dropped a few mining picks and bamboo baskets.
Inside those bamboo baskets, there is still a small amount of ore, which is obviously newly mined.
The ore layer on the rock wall also has several excavations.
Ji Tianxing frowned for a moment, and tentatively asked: "Those ten handyman disciples, although they could not enter the outer gate, they should all have the strength of the second and third layers of the True Origin Realm."
"At the time of the incident, they should be scattered in this area for mining. Even if a master suddenly attacks, it is impossible to capture them all instantly without leaving a trace."
"Master sister, we look carefully, and we should be able to find clues nearby."
Yun Yao nodded in agreement with his analysis.
The two of them dispersed, and started investigating from both ends of the cave, looking for traces with keen eyes.
After a while, Ji Tianxing discovered the clue and found many traces of fighting.
The rock walls and the stone picks thrown in the pile of ore are all marked by swords.
Yunyao also made the same discovery and found many traces of fighting.
After the two communicated with each other, some clues were vaguely analyzed.
"Judging from the fighting traces left in the cave, the fighting at that time was not violent. The time was short and it ended soon."
"This can show that the strength of the murderer is far beyond the true essence realm, and there is more than one in order to capture all ten handyman disciples very quickly."
"From the traces of the fight in the cave, and the remaining true vitality aura, the murderer should be the strength of the Tong Xuan realm."
When he said this, Ji Tianxing had already thought about it, and faintly guessed that this matter was most likely caused by the Heavenly Sword Sect.
However, after Yun Yao was silent for a moment, she suddenly made another discovery.
"Tian Xing Junior Brother, I just found out that the atmosphere of the demons is left in this cave. The masters of the demons have been here!"
"What? The breath of the demon?" Ji Tianxing was taken aback immediately, frowned fiercely, his eyes full of doubts.
At the beginning, he assisted Yunyao in carrying out the task, and once teamed up through the magic hole.
He knew that Yun Yao had the blood of the Heavenly Spirit Saint Body and was very sensitive to the breath of all races.
Since Yunyao found out that there was a Mozu atmosphere in the cave, he was sure that the Mozu master had been here, he certainly believed it.
He just felt puzzled, that things became more and more complicated, and the truth became confusing.
"Isn't it the Heaven Sword Sect did it? Why did the demons come here? They shouldn't have the idea of Longshan, so what do they want to do?"
Yunyao also frowned, her eyes a little puzzled.
The two of them pondered for a moment, and they didn't try to analyze any useful clues.
So Yun Yao suggested: "From the traces left here, the ten handyman disciples did not die here, they should have been taken away by the murderer."
"We continue to explore the ground to see if we can find more clues."
Ji Tianxing nodded in agreement, followed her to leave the cave, and continued to walk diagonally downward along a mine tunnel on the cave wall.
This mine tunnel is even darker and darker, and a bit narrow.
Ji Tianxing looked at the distribution map of the mine tunnels and confirmed that the mine tunnel was newly excavated by the Heavenly Sword Sect, and it took less than two years.
The two walked along the mine tunnel for a while, and Yun Yao detected the aura left by the demons again, and he also found some subtle traces.
"It seems that this matter is most likely related to the demons."
"The ten captured handyman disciples should have been taken away from here. We continued to go deep underground~www.wuxiaspot.com~Ji Tianxing and Yunyao continued along the mine tunnel and continued to advance deep underground.
Along the way, the two constantly found some traces and clues, all related to the demons and the handyman disciples.
About half an hour later, the two of them had gone several kilometers deep underground.
This newly excavated mine tunnel also ends here, and the front is blocked by a black cliff.
Ji Tianxing and Yun Yao stood on the edge of the cliff, looking around with keen eyes.
Behind them is an empty cave, which is also the end of the mine, where the ore is collected.
There is a cliff in front of them, which is nearly a hundred meters wide, and the cliff is pitch black underneath.
Seeing this scene, both of them showed doubts and talked in a low voice.
"How could this be? There are cliffs deep in the ground?"
"This new mine excavated by the Heavenly Sword Sect was blocked by a cliff here. If we hadn't come to investigate the clues, I'm afraid no one had arrived here."
"Tian Xing Junior Brother, there is still the breath of the demon here, and it doesn't seem to be leftover, the breath is a bit heavy."
"I suspect that there are demons lurking here, we have to be careful."
Just when Yun Yao reminded Ji Tianxing to be careful, a few dark shadows suddenly rushed out of the empty cave behind the two.
A total of five black shadows rushed out of the darkness and rushed towards the two people silently, full of blood and killing intent.
At that moment, Yun Yao was instantly alert, a cold light flashed in his palm, and a sword appeared.
"Tianxing Junior Brother, be careful!"
She turned around and looked at the black shadows, waved out five dazzling sword lights.
