Chapter 67

~8 min read 1,505 words

"The five fierce men of Eku Mountain have all been killed by me. As for the valley-locking immortal array, since we can get in, can't we get out? And to tell you the truth, the valley-locking immortal array has already been destroyed by us for the most part. Now, only the array eye remains.

Once you harvest the spirit rice and loot this valley, we will naturally help you break that last array eye and let everyone leave.

As for whether you can escape the demonic Daoist's pursuit after leaving, that is your own business." Xia Daoming said.

"Damn it, as long as we can escape first, who cares about the rest!" The bearded man's eyes widened when he heard this, and he shouted.

"Yes, yes, as long as we escape, I will flee to another place and hide my name. No matter how powerful that demonic Daoist is, can he find us one by one?"

"Harvest the spirit rice, harvest the spirit rice!"

The martial masters became excited and shouted as soon as they thought about being able to escape from this valley, which was no different from a hard labor prison.

Soon, the martial masters scattered to get sickles.

"Harvest carefully. Don't think about hiding anything, otherwise, there will be no mercy!" Seeing the martial masters start to harvest, Xia Daoming swept his gaze over everyone and warned coldly.

Those martial masters were swept by Xia Daoming's cold and sharp gaze, and their backs felt cold and their scalps went numb. The thought they had of secretly hiding a small handful of spirit rice in their pockets was immediately dispelled.

Spirit rice is different from ordinary rice.

Not only does it grow as tall as a person, but the rice leaves are as sharp as knives, and the rice stalks are as hard as iron wood. Therefore, what looks like a small field of rice is actually a lot of work to harvest.

Moreover, before this spirit rice is peeled and eaten, the ears must be harvested together with a part of the rice stalks, otherwise, the spiritual energy will be lost very quickly.

Watching the dozen or so martial masters bending over and harvesting the spirit rice enthusiastically, Xia Daoming had the joy of a farmer during harvest on his face.

Soon, he also went into the field to harvest.

Liu Liu Qiaolian had already helped bring two large bags.

The martial masters put the harvested spirit rice into the large bags.

After a short half-hour.

The harvest was complete.

Both large bags were filled with spirit rice, and some spirit rice was still scattered in the field.

The martial masters picked up the scattered spirit rice one by one, not daring to hide any, and brought it to Xia Daoming.

"Forget it, you can divide these scattered ones among yourselves. After working so hard for so long, you should at least taste the flavor." Xia Daoming waved his hand and said.

Those martial masters saw that Xia Daoming was ruthless and decisive in killing just now, and his "no mercy" warning to them afterward was even more terrifying.

They thought that if this guy didn't cross the river and tear down the bridge after harvesting the spirit rice, they would be thanking heaven and earth. They didn't expect him to be so generous as to reward them with the scattered spirit rice directly!

Thinking about how they had been locked here for years working hard, that demonic Daoist and the six fierce men of Eku Mountain didn't reward them with even half a grain of spirit rice, and they would beat and scold them at every turn.

People are afraid of comparison.

Comparing the two, the martial masters were simply moved to tears.

"Thank you, hero. If that demonic Daoist returns to the valley, he will practice in the stone cave behind the waterfall. I think there must be a lot of property and good things hidden in that stone cave.

It's just that there are two green-water crocodiles raised in the pool. Let alone entering the stone cave, even approaching the pool and waterfall is difficult. If you are interested in that stone cave, hero, we are willing to help attract the attention of the green-water crocodiles.

You can take the opportunity to cross the pool and break into the stone cave. But I don't know what kind of layout is in the stone cave, so you should consider it carefully, hero." Moved to tears, the bearded man took the initiative to speak.

As soon as the bearded man spoke, many people looked at him with "resentful" eyes.

That's a green-water crocodile!

If you want to die, don't drag us with you!

Xia Daoming nodded slightly to the bearded man, then fell into a difficult choice.

The demonic Daoist's lair was naturally Xia Daoming's focus.

So before killing Sang Zhang, he had already asked him and knew that the demonic Daoist's lair was behind the waterfall. As for the two green-water crocodiles lurking in the pool, Sang Zhang, that guy with sinister intentions, didn't mention it.

However, when Xia Daoming teamed up with the Xu family to enter the Cangmang Mountains, he had seen green-water crocodiles.

At that time, to him, the green-water crocodile was very powerful, but now it was nothing.

What really made it difficult for Xia Daoming to make a choice was that he was afraid that the demonic Daoist had set up some powerful restrictions or arrays in his lair.

But seeing the "Immortal's Cave" right in front of him, Xia Daoming was really unwilling to turn around and leave just like that.

Opportunity knocks but once!

Maybe, if I enter this cave, I can obtain immortal techniques and step into the immortal gate?

"I can kill the green-water crocodiles, so you don't need to help me attract their attention. But it's hard to say whether there will be any traps or dangers hidden in this stone cave.

Maybe there's nothing, or maybe I'll be trapped inside as soon as I go in, or even be killed by some restriction or trap. So after I kill the green-water crocodiles, I need someone to help me scout the way." After a while, Xia Daoming looked up at the martial masters and said.

Hearing this, the martial masters' faces turned pale, and their steps subconsciously took a step back.

"I won't let you take this risk for nothing. The person who helps me scout the way will not only get a small bundle of spirit rice but also a set of green-water crocodile skin armor." Xia Daoming continued.

As soon as Xia Daoming said this.

The martial masters' originally pale faces began to flush with color.

Everyone's breathing became chaotic and heavy.

They were all people of normal intelligence, and they knew very well that with Xia Daoming's strength, if he really wanted to force them to scout the cave, they would have no choice at all.

Now, Xia Daoming offered a heavy reward.

Obviously, Xia Daoming still had a bottom line, and he was countless times better than those demonic Daoists and the six fierce men of Eku Mountain. There was no need to worry about him breaking his word.

Especially since spirit rice can nourish vitality and refine internal strength, if they have the chance to get a small handful, a breakthrough is definitely promising.

The only thing to worry about now is whether they have the life to enjoy the heavy reward!

"Damn it, I'll do it!" After a while, the bearded man patted his chest and shouted.

The others saw that the bearded man had snatched the lead, and while they felt relieved, they also felt an indescribable regret and loss.

A small bundle of spirit rice, enough to give them hope of breaking through a realm.

Sure enough, there must be brave men under heavy rewards!

Seeing this, Xia Daoming's eyes lit up, and he bowed to the bearded man with a look of joy: "Then I will trouble you, brother!"

"You're too polite, hero. Come to think of it, you saved us from the sea of misery, so doing these things is what I should do. Hehe, it's just that I want to become stronger, so after it's done, I will still have to shamelessly ask for a reward from you, hero!" The bearded man said.

"Don't worry, I have always been clear about rewards and punishments, and I will never treat you unfairly." Xia Daoming nodded to the bearded man, then turned to the others: "You go quickly to other places to search for property, and then gather with those women at the exit of the valley.

After I scout the cave, I will naturally go to the valley entrance to find you. But I said, I am clear about rewards and punishments. During this period, don't make any moves to hide anything, otherwise, you will stay in this valley forever!"

"We wouldn't dare!" Everyone bowed and replied, then quickly left.
