Absolute control over the start, I will develop my own immortality

The demonic force was called "Xuantie Sect", an ordinary, even somewhat rustic name.

On the surface, this sect is located on a mountain, and the only specialty of this mountain is a black iron mine.

This is how the sect got its name.

Black iron is not a particularly rare material in the spiritual world; it can even be said to be a basic material. Therefore, no other forces would be stupid enough to compete with a Shenhua sect for this mine.

But in reality, how could a mere black iron mine possibly support the Huashen Sect?

The Xuantie Sect is secretly a demonic force, and robbing and looting are commonplace.

However, the Xuantie Sect also understands that within the Tianheng City, the demons are the targets to be attacked, so they have always been very low-key.

Not to mention the cargo ships of the Yuanling Sect, they didn't even dare to rob the cargo ships of the Yuanling Sect's affiliated families.

Therefore, Saint Hua Ling designed a plan to have a cargo ship remove all the characteristics belonging to the Yuanling Sect, and then have it pass through the Xuantie Sect's sphere of influence and then be robbed.

It can be said that he directed this matter single-handedly.

"This Xuantie Sect is really unlucky. They were targeted by you."

Zhou Ming shook his head helplessly.

There are many purposes for the Flower Spirit Saint to design it this way.

The first is to find a reason to take action.

The second is to take out the resources that Zhou Ming had asked for help, namely the ancient Xuxuan gold.

Third, it would increase the guilt or bad reputation of the Xuantie Sect.

After the deed is accomplished, the Demon-Slaying Society can publicize that the Xuantie Sect is a terrifying demonic force that is so bold that it even dares to rob the Yuanling Sect's cargo ships.

Thereby exaggerating the fear of the Xuantie Sect.

The greater the notoriety of the Xuantie Sect, the greater the reputation that the Demon-Slaying Society that eradicates it will naturally gain.

Otherwise, if people knew that the Demon Extermination Society was making such a big fuss and taking action again after decades, they would end up destroying a demon sect that was as timid as a mouse and even the affiliated families of the four overlords did not dare to offend.

That would be a huge joke.

As the saying goes, if you want to accuse someone of a crime, you can always find a pretext.

When Saint Hua Ling wanted to take action against Xuantie Sect, no matter how cautious Xuantie Sect had been in the past and how much they dared not offend, it was all in vain.

Deliberately designed to cause harm.

Isn't this a great sin?

However, although Zhou Ming said this, he did not have the slightest sympathy for the Xuantie Sect.

Because this sect is also a real demonic force.

They dare not offend the four overlords, nor do they dare offend the overlords' affiliated families, but other than that, they dare to offend all other forces!

During their existence, they have often robbed the goods of small forces and families.

A few days later, Saint Hua Ling led more than 30 Nascent Soul cultivators from the elite of the Demon-Slaying Society and set out to the outside of the Xuantie Sect, completely surrounding the entire sect.

Zhou Ming hid his figure and breath and followed him.

Saint Hua Ling had made sufficient preparations for this matter. It can be said that the entire thing was designed and planned by her from beginning to end.

But even so, Saint Hua Ling did not publicize it too much before the official action. She planned to carry out publicity work after eradicating the Xuantie Sect.

It can be said that it is very cautious.

But among the more than thirty Nascent Soul cultivators, not every one of them can hide his or her aura perfectly.

When they arrived at Xuantie Sect and surrounded the sect, people inside Xuantie Sect immediately noticed something.

"Something's wrong."

Zhou Ming suddenly spoke, and transmitted his voice: "Just now, two divine consciousnesses at the level of transformation spread from the interior of Xuantie Sect, investigating our situation."

"what?!"

Holy Maiden Hua Ling was shocked: "How can there be two Divine Transformation cultivators? This is not right. Even if the Xuantie Sect took into account all the materials they looted, it would not be able to support the cultivation of two Divine Transformation cultivators!"

Zhou Ming said: "This shows that the other Divine Transformation cultivator did not stay here for a long time... I observed that one of the two divine consciousnesses came from their sect, and the other... was deep in the black iron mine!"

The Flower Spirit Saint suddenly thought of many possibilities.

The black iron ore has no value at all, so it is naturally not worthy of a Divine Transformation cultivator to guard it specifically.

Therefore, that Divine Transformation cultivator is not necessarily from the Xuantie Sect.

Moreover, she had made sufficient preparations for this matter. If she gave up, all her investment would be wasted.

The most important thing is that shipload of supplies!

"I have two protective magic treasures on me, and several of the others also have magic treasures to protect themselves. Together, it won't be difficult to deal with a Divine Transformation cultivator...

Senior, let's attack the Xuantie Sect first. If anyone wants to help, I'll leave it to you!"

"it is good."

Zhou Ming noticed that these two Jindan cultivators were only in the initial stage, so he was not afraid and nodded directly.

However, to be on the safe side, Zhou Ming still separated a part of his body and sent it to the black iron ore below to find out what was going on.

The black iron mine is located on one side of the Black Iron Sect. A vast mine has been dug out. Hundreds of dark mine caves leading deep underground or inside the mountain are distributed in a random pattern throughout the mine.

After countless years of continuous excavation, the entire square occupies nearly one-third of the mountain.

And this one-third is obviously very ugly.

The Xuantie Sect is located on the other two-thirds.

And these two-thirds have been extremely well protected, with an elegant environment, green waters and green mountains. Small buildings guard the Xuantie Sect, appearing among the branches and leaves.

Although it cannot be said to be a very breathtaking view, it is indeed a unique experience.

Civilization and barbarism, lushness and desolation form an extremely sharp contrast on one mountain.

On one side is the residence of immortals, there are not many of them, but they are high up.

On one side is a gathering place for miners, where more than 100,000 miners work and build the Xuantie Sect, but they are as lowly as ants.

Basically now, there are 50,000 to 60,000 miners working deep underground and inside the mountains to dig for black iron ore.

The mines are either intersecting or independent, forming an extremely complex underground maze.

"The layout of these mines... is a bit counterintuitive!"

Zhou Ming said secretly.

There are hundreds of mine entrances on the surface, and the underground mine tunnels are intricate and seem reasonable.

But you have to know that the purpose of a mine is to mine minerals, so the underground mine tunnels should also be dug along the ore veins.

No one would be so stupid as to keep digging forward when he sees there is no ore ahead.

After all, the wages of these miners are related to the amount of ore they collect.

If you have no income for a period of time, you will definitely choose to find another way out.

But here, although there seems to be no ore distribution, the number of mine tunnels that continue to spread deep underground is not rare, and there are even hundreds of them.

The existence of all the mine tunnels is not due to digging along the ore veins.

This is of course extremely unreasonable.

The entire mine has formed a huge underground maze inadvertently during countless years of excavation.

It would be better to say that this was excavated according to the layout of an underground maze!
