Chapter 1739: Planning for the Plot
People who are short and thin tend to have a big head. This person's facial features are all squeezed together, only his eyes are splayed to the sides, but his appearance is still very distinctive.
The others all looked like elite soldiers.
Two immortals were sent to one mine, which shows how much importance Bai Ziqi attaches to this place.
He Lingchuan's strategy of dispersing the enemy's forces also began to show results.
The man lit a red candle but did not slow down his steps. The mine guard rushed out again and shouted, "Keep away! Who are you?"
Anyone who comes here so late at night can't be an idler.
So they were beaten to the point of vomiting blood in no time, and then the other party held their heads and pushed them directly to the edge of the mine: "Open the ban."
"It's impossible to open it. Only deputy guard captains and above know the formula."
"Has anyone been here just now?"
"No, no."
The dwarf immortal reached out his hand and patted their crowns, saying in a deep voice: "Break the restriction. The Illusion Sect probably already knows we are here."
No need to hide anymore.
The man holding the red candle came forward, pointed the candle toward the hole and blew hard.
"call--"
Red smoke floated into the cave entrance, casting patches of red halos on the cave walls, and finally condensed into one talisman after another.
This is the restriction placed by the Illusion Sect at the entrance of the cave. Anyone who breaks in will be immediately blasted to a crisp by lightning.
After seeing the true form of this restriction, the dwarf fairy said to the fire giant lizard: "This is yours."
Everyone else stepped back about ten feet away. Master Jieshui took two slow steps forward and took a deep breath, causing the loose skin on his neck to dent.
He Lingchuan didn’t know if it was an illusion, but he felt that its body suddenly grew larger.
The next moment, it spewed red flames towards the mine.
Before the flames entered the hole, the eyeball spider on the tree discovered that it was actually the image of a fire snake. The snake's head, tongue, and scales were all vaguely visible, and its eyes were burning white flames.
One was not enough, so Master Jieshui released six fire snakes in a row before giving up.
A green light flashed at the door, and the barrier resisted stubbornly. However, the magical power of Jieshui Zhenren was too strong after all. When the third fire snake came on the scene, the barrier could no longer hold on. The stone powder on the cave wall fell down, and soon, even the stone cave was melted, and the surface of the stone wall was a dazzling red.
If the restriction cannot be applied, it will be completely burned.
After breaking the ban, the fire snakes did not stop, but went straight into the depths of the mine.
However, although they looked like they were covered in flames, the mine tunnel two or three feet away was not actually heated.
There are many man-made fortifications in the mine, with wooden reinforcements every few feet. If these supports are burned down, it will be of no help to the fire snake in exploring the tunnel.
Six fire snakes moved separately, whizzing back and forth in the mine tunnel.
The mine was complicated and it was not easy for outsiders to walk in it, so Master Jieshui let them go down to explore the way and burned all the restrictions on the road.
These six fire snakes will indeed burn everything that blocks the way. If there are still living people at the bottom of the cave, they don't mind giving them a free ride.
They were moving very fast, and soon He Lingchuan heard a whirring sound coming from above.
The fire serpent is coming.
This thing must be Master Jie Shui's spies. Even if they kill these things, Master Jie Shui will know that there are tricky things in the mine.
Luo Xie immediately pointed forward: "There is a big hole at the corner that can be used as shelter!"
Everyone quickened their pace and found a large sunken hole at the corner. The entrance was small and hidden, and it would be easily missed if you were not careful.
After everyone jumped in, a black light flashed in Elder Liu's hand, and he held a brush.
He took two steps forward, stood in front of everyone, grabbed the pen and began to paint in the air.
The magical thing was that the air in front of him was like a piece of vertical paper, and he actually painted it with ink of the same color as the rocks in the mine.
Even though time was so tight, Elder Liu still had the leisure to add two small crystal clusters to the picture!
He Lingchuan had to admit that Elder Liu's painting skills were really good, and he could make his paintings lively and vivid with just a few strokes.
The fire snake is coming soon, and the tunnel above is already emitting a dazzling red light.
Elder Liu also jumped into the pit and added the final few strokes.
Now, everyone was hiding in a cave, separated from the tunnel outside by only a painted air wall.
But if you walk up to the front of the air wall and take a look, you will see that it is just an ordinary rock wall with an undulating surface and a small piece of bell stone hanging from the top. There are also water marks on the wall, and it feels wet when you touch it with your hand. The texture of the stone is rough.
The mining pit at the back was covered tightly and no one could see it.
Then, the fiery serpents came.
Standing in the hollow, everyone could sense the change in light in the tunnel. Once the fire snake passed, it was like daybreak outside.
They swam right in front of the crowd without stopping, and headed deeper underground.
The perfect camouflage drawn by Elder Liu easily fooled these fire snakes.
"Good writing!" He Lingchuan praised, "How long can the painted wall last?"
"One hour." Elder Liu shook the tip of the pen gently, "This is the Spirit Immortal Pen bestowed by the Immortal Lord."
The body of this pen is not like an ordinary bamboo or wooden tube, but light silver, and even has a little iridescence under the light.
Luo Xie stared at the pen with genuine curiosity, and subconsciously asked, "What can I draw to create something?"
"Only small items can be used. Someone once used it to draw gold and silver to deceive people." And the things drawn by the Spirit Immortal Pen have a certain strength, and they will not break with a poke, but Elder Liu was too lazy to mention it. "The Immortal Venerable said that if it can continue to change and improve, one day it will be no problem to draw mountains and seas. At that time, it can be called the 'Brush of Creation'."
This magical power is really amazing. He Lingchuan can instantly think of a hundred uses for the Lingxian Pen.
Everyone chatted in the pit for a while, not in a hurry to leave. Sure enough, not long after, the tunnel outside was bright as day again -
The fire snake passed by again.
"The magic power has finished exploring the way, and they should come down." Elder Liu whispered, "It's a pity that the restrictions we set up were burned by the fire snake."
Master Jieshui released the fire snake to explore the way, clear the obstacles, and check whether there were any enemies at the bottom of the cave.
Ever since seeing the immortal spirit brush he took out, He Lingchuan had an idea. At this moment, he suddenly said, "This brush can make the fake look real. Elder Liu has profound painting skills. Let's set up the trap again."
"Sure." Elder Liu took out the Spiritual Immortal Brush and asked, "What do you want to draw?"
"Mysterious crystal. The bigger the better." He Lingchuan asked Luo Xie beside him, "Can the largest mysterious crystal in this mine be half a person's height?"
"Too many." Luo Xie said without exaggeration, "There are some that are more than a person tall. When they were just dug out from the ground and exposed to the light, even gold couldn't compare to that shine!"
Luxury! Dong Rui, who was standing beside him, secretly complained.
……
On the lakeside lighthouse, Bai Ziqi called Wu Shidao over again.
The work has to be completed step by step.
"When you are at Shilong Peak, will you be monitored by the Haoyuan Golden Mirror?"
"will not."
"Sure?"
"As long as the sect doesn't doubt me, the Haoyuan Golden Mirror won't pay attention to me." Wu Shidao was very confident, "More than a thousand people come and go in the sect, and the Haoyuan Golden Mirror ignores them most of the time."
"Great." Bai Ziqi spent a lot of time talking to him to keep him here, just for the sake of the next plan, "I want to give you a task."
Wu Shidao knew that he was able to survive because he was useful: "Please, please give me your instructions, sir."
"Where are the Xuan Crystals of the Illusion Sect stored?"
"Ah, the black crystal is stored in three places." Wu Shidao is indeed a know-it-all. Not only did he tell the locations of the three warehouses, he even knew the approximate amount of inventory.
Bai Ziqi grasped the key point: "In other words, more than 60% of the black crystals are stored in the Immortal Light Cave?"
"Yes, yes. The other two libraries together account for less than 30%."
Bai Ziqi took out a bag and gave it to him: "Go to Xianguang Cave and sweep all the black crystals in stock into here. Take as many as you can."
Huh? Wu Shidao took it with both hands and reminded carefully: "Sir, that is a huge amount of black crystals, which can fill up the entire cave! The capacity of this pocket..."
Can it fit?
In the past 150 years, the spiritual energy sent by the Tiangang formation was quite a lot, so much so that Qian Huan and his immortals had not been able to use up all the spiritual energy since he died more than half a year ago. Bai Ziqi smiled and casually threw a silver ingot into the pocket.
With a "clang", the silver actually fell out of his sleeve, landed on the table, and rolled twice under Wu Shidao's surprised gaze.
"This is called a bottomless bag." Bai Ziqi explained to him, "It has no capacity, because the things thrown into it will be directly transmitted to me!"
But the distance from Upside Down Lake to Shilong Peak is a bit far... Wu Shidao suddenly realized that it was enough for him to have ears, why would he need a mouth? Didn't the Heavenly Palace consider these issues beforehand? Why was it his turn as a surrendered soldier to ask questions?
As a subordinate, you just need to do your job honestly. In the past few decades in the Illusion Sect, he has never been so enthusiastic.
So he quickly responded with two "OK".
In fact, there were two bottomless bags in a set, one was given to Wu Shidao, and the other was hidden in Bai Ziqi's sleeve.
One feeds in material and the other discharges it.
This is very similar to the Small Moving Mountain Array, and can also transport objects, but the difference is that the bottomless bag has a very large transmission range, with an effective distance of an astonishing thirty miles, while the Small Moving Mountain Array can only move two or three miles at most, and is affected by the prohibition of escape techniques.
But Bai Ziqi certainly wouldn't explain the principle to Wu Shidao, and only told him: "Remember, this bag can only hold things that are two feet square. It can't hold anything that's too big, living things, or other storage spaces, and it can only hold things for three hours!"
After three hours, the bag disappeared automatically.
Because it is essentially a solidified magical power: the signature skill of the Goddess Fenghe, space folding!
This is to fold two pieces of space together to create a channel. The principle is different and it is not affected by the forbidden formation of escape technique.
But because the distance between them is extremely far, the folding space is very small and can only hold small items.
It's not enough to hold other large treasures, but it's handy for holding gold, silver, treasures or black crystals.
