Liu Ming looked at the man on the ground, after a moment of hesitation, he unceremoniously took out an inch-sized silver needle from his body, his arm protruding out and turned into a afterimage, he quickly stabbed the man a few times, and then single-handed. A ball of clear water was condensed by turning over, and it fell on the man's head, trying to pour the man to wake up.
And at the moment when he urged the mana in the body to release the water polo technique, Liu Ming's brow wrinkled again, and his face became cloudy.
He could clearly sense that although it was only a small spell, the mana consumption in the body was more than three or four times higher than usual!
In this case, he had already noticed something wrong when he released the fire bomb before.
"how so… "
As Liu Ming's thoughts turned sharply, he seemed to remember something, and suddenly took a deep breath, closing his eyes with a solemn expression on his face.
Shortly after he vomited a little, his face changed drastically.
He discovered that the aura of this place was so thin that it was not even one or two of the outside world.
Under the influence of the inexplicable suppressive force here, the vitality of the world that he can draw from the nearby void is even rarer.
This also means that it is difficult to replenish the mana consumed in the body through meditation, or it can only maintain the mana in the body through external objects such as Lingshi pill.
After such a trial, Liu Ming now finally understands why the man in front of him, who is not weak in cultivation, turned out to be like this.
"Hey, new kid, don't think that you can still mobilize mana, just want to show off here. Humph, let me go wisely, otherwise..."
At this time, the skinny man who woke up slowly, after seeing Liu Ming's act of absorbing spiritual energy, immediately let out a sarcasm, his tone full of threats.
When Liu Ming heard this, he opened his eyes with a change of expression, and a sharp look flashed in his eyes. Without saying a word, he raised one hand and made a little empty on his body.
As a flash of cold light faded from his fingers into the skinny man's body, the man couldn't help but flash with a hint of terror in his eyes.
"What do you want to do?"
"Ah! Stop it!"
Immediately, an indescribable numb itching spread all over his body and penetrated into his bone marrow, like countless ants biting, causing the man with the liquid condensate level to roll on the spot and scream more and more.
Liu Ming watched this scene coldly, letting him struggle with pain, his face full of indifferent expression.
After half a cup of tea, the screaming gradually weakened, but the man was seen curled up, his skin covered in blood, his breath was extremely weak, and he looked dying.
At this time Liu Ming raised his arm again, and faced the void again.
The numbness on the man's body suddenly disappeared, his expression loosened, but Liu Ming's cold voice suddenly came from his ear, and he couldn't help but feel shocked, his eyes full of fear when he looked at Liu Ming.
"I will tell you the truth about everything you know about here. If you hide anything, I don't mind letting you taste what it was just now."
Liu Ming's voice was not loud, but after it was introduced into the man's ears, it was like a ghost from hell. With a tremor all over, he moved back almost subconsciously, and then quickly began to speak.
It turned out that this place was the largest deep-sea ore vein in the deep sea under the jurisdiction of the Sea-Monster Emperor, and there were many rare materials buried in the ore veins that were very rare to the outside world.
At this moment, the place where Liu Ming is located is a huge mine that has been mined by countless mine slaves all the year round.
This underground world now has a radius of hundreds of miles, and it has become a world of its own.
The miners here are all cultivators of various races captured by the Sea-Monster King and his subordinates. Now there are about three or four hundred of them. Most of them are like skinny men. They are cultivators in the Condensate Realm, but there are also extreme cultivators. A small number of spiritual disciples are mixed in it.
When the man said this, Liu Ming was taken aback for a moment and suddenly asked:
"A spiritual disciple cultivated, can such a miner be used?"
"The reason why these spiritualists can survive is that they are talented or they are taken care of by other strong people. Otherwise, this location is dangerous and will not survive the first month at all." Seeing this, the skinny man quickly explained.
"Oh, is there anything special here?" Liu Ming asked seemingly casually.
"Daoist Mingjian! For unknown reasons, this area is born with scarce spiritual energy, and invisibly, it also emits a kind of strange energy, which suppresses part of the cultivation base of every cultivator who enters this place. So even if the mana is stronger. , Staying in an underground mine for a few months or half a year, your own mana will also be exhausted. After that, if you plan to absorb aura to replenish mana, the efficiency is a thousand times more difficult than the outside world." The skinny man finally said. Something that made Liu Ming faintly guessed.
"Don't those guards ever come down to check?" Liu Ming asked coldly after his eyes flashed.
"The guards generally don't come down here, but let us live and die here. Only at the end of each month, will they show up at a fixed location to collect rare ores in exchange for antidote and other things." The skinny man When he talked about the guard, he clenched his fist fiercely, gritted his teeth on his face.
Through the following dialogue, Liu Ming learned that in the depths of the mine, it seems that it is still connected to the passage of an unknown bottomless abyss, so that after a period of time, there will be a kind of evil beast. The monster rushed out from it, devouring the mine slaves.
This evil beast is not big in size, and most of its strength is only in the liquid condensate state, but it is extremely bloodthirsty and cruel, and it is very tangling.
Therefore, every time the evil beast appeared, everyone would join hands to kill it, so some of the mana that was hard to regain would often be used up in the life-saving.
As for the portable spirit weapons on the monks, they could still be used when they first arrived here. But after waiting for the mana to be exhausted, these spirit weapons will be treated as sharper weapons.
And some of the lower-level spirit weapons, because of the long-term inability to replenish the aura, coupled with the erosion of the mysterious energy in the mine, will gradually revert to ordinary iron.
As a result, those spirit weapons that were originally small and exquisite would not be able to exert much effect. On the contrary, they were not as useful as cultivators who refined weapons from the bones of the evil beasts they had killed.
After these words were finished, the skinny man was silent, with a very honest appearance.
"Are there any other things you forgot to say?" Liu Ming looked in his eyes, pondering, and suddenly said lightly.
"Friends joked, the information about this place has been fully revealed here, and there is no concealment." Hearing this, the skinny man hurriedly said in defense.
Liu Ming listened, but narrowed his eyes, and without hesitation, he stretched out his finger to point at this person again.
Suddenly, the painful sensation of ant phages struck again!
After the man screamed, he immediately curled up again. He kept tearing and scratching his skin with his hands, and shouted in fear:
"Friends of Taoism spare my life, I said... I will say everything!"
When Liu Ming heard this, his hand's method changed and stopped again.
"Let's talk, if there is any concealment, I will never stop like this easily." Liu Ming said blankly.
The skinny man didn't dare to hesitate the slightest, and he immediately concealed the matter and made his debut:
"Don't hide it from fellow Taoists, in addition to the monks in the liquid condensate realm, there is actually a strong monster of the crystal transformation realm in this mine, and he is the leader of a major force in this place."
"There is actually a strong crystal transformation here!" Liu Ming was a little surprised when he heard this.
"However, even though this person is a strong crystal transformation, his cultivation is also suppressed, and his mana has been continuously consumed. There is not much mana at all. Now, Fang has become the leader of the mine by relying on his powerful body. "The skinny man hurriedly explained with a smile.
"Oh I got it… "
Liu Ming nodded, only then revealed a hint of clarity, and then asked again:
"Since this crystal transforming powerhouse is only the leader of a force, what other forces are there in this mine, and how are they divided?"
Seeing Liu Ming's face eased slightly, the skinny man felt relieved, and replied with a smile:
"Friends of Taoism, there are only two larger forces in the cave, one is headed by the demon crystal crystal strong, and the other is headed by a Tonggong alien strong in the late stage of the liquid condensate."
"The people in the late stage of the liquid can actually fight against the strong in the crystal phase, there must be something extraordinary in the same rank?" Liu Ming said thoughtfully.
"Yes, sir. People are actually very rare Tonggong people. Although they are cultivated in the late stage of the liquid, they are born with copper bars and iron bones. Compared with the monsters in the crystal transformation stage, they are still Slightly prevailing. In this place where aura is thin, one can naturally rely on this. However, fellow Taoists are also extremely powerful. As long as they are willing to show their strength a little, there will be absolutely no people who take refuge in them, and they will become the number one in this place. The leaders of the three major forces are not necessarily impossible." The skinny man said flatteringly, but he had already gritted his teeth in his heart. He didn't know how many vicious thoughts he had in a moment, and he was ready to retaliate against Liu Ming afterwards.
In the following time, this person was forced by Liu Ming a little bit about other important matters.
For example, although this underground mine is huge, there are very few edible things in it. In addition, it is extremely difficult for everyone to absorb the spiritual energy from the outside world, and it is not possible to live for a long time. Usually, if you want to survive, you must either kill the incoming evil beast and eat its flesh and blood, or rely on a large amount of ore to directly exchange the food spirit stone from the guard.
Although this deep-sea vein is rich in various mineral sources, after a long period of mining, the peripheral mining areas have gradually become scarce. If the monks want to find enough ore, they can only move to deeper veins. Of course, they meet there. The possibility of getting to the evil beast is naturally several times greater.
In the mine, the mine slaves come from different origins and are of different races. Under such circumstances, the looting of ore food from each other is even more commonplace in the cave every day. Staged.
But together with the fight, the loser is even more bruised and bruised, with nothing, but even the life of the loser.
