Chapter 51: The Chaotic World Outside the City, Heading to the Red Gold Mine

~8 min read 1,414 words

The night passed in the blink of an eye.

Last night, the wind was fierce and the rain was heavy; the battle was extremely intense, and the tree shadows swayed.

Fortunately, the house was set up with a Soundproof Barrier, otherwise, it would definitely have been discovered by the surrounding neighbors.

"This shameless man."

Xia Jingyan, in the bedroom next door, heard such movements; her pretty face flushed red, and she felt helpless.

Although this man had astonishing talent, extremely high comprehension, and cherished his wives and concubines, he was just too restless.

She had been a Loose Cultivator for many years and had seen other Dao Companions, but they would only be together once or twice a week at most; most of the time was actually spent in bitter cultivation or practicing the Four Arts of Cultivation—where would they find the time to indulge in such things?

But this man plowed day and night, never tiring, and his stamina was ridiculously high.

Sometimes she even felt her limbs go weak.

Even without realizing it, she had been changed and became addicted to it; she didn't know if this was a good thing or a bad thing.

However, being addicted to one's wives and concubines was still better than going to brothels.

Thinking of this, Xia Jingyan sighed helplessly.

She could only activate the Soundproof Barrier and turn a blind eye to it.

…………

At this very moment, Zhou Sui was looking at his two sleeping wives and concubines with great satisfaction; after a night of cultivation, his cultivation base had improved quite a bit—it was far better than his own bitter cultivation.

He currently only had an Eighth Grade Spirit Root, and his daily cultivation was as slow as a snail, unable to make any progress.

But with the help of his Dao Companions, his cultivation progress was extremely fast.

"It's about time; let the Gold-Eating Insect set off."

A thought stirred in Zhou Sui's heart, and he immediately issued an order to one of his clones. Having advanced to Qi Refining Level 6, his Clone Gu could now gestate six clones, allowing him to do more things.

Whoosh!

After hearing the main body's order, the clone Zhou Sui transformed into an old man of fifty or sixty years, decrepit and frail, looking exactly like a Loose Cultivator with no hope on the path of the Dao.

He arrived at the gate of Miyun City silently; at this moment, a large number of Loose Cultivators were entering and exiting the city gates.

"This!"

Just after leaving Miyun City, Zhou Sui immediately sensed the faint gazes around him; it was like the gaze of a jackal in the Darkness, staring at its prey.

Clearly, he was targeted by nearby Loose Cultivators the moment he appeared.

"Miyun City is truly becoming more and more chaotic."

Zhou Sui's heart tightened instantly.

To be honest, he had long heard about the chaos outside Miyun City. Because the cost of living and rent inside Miyun City were expensive, not many Loose Cultivators dared to live in the city.

They basically all lived in the Loose Cultivator Market outside the city.

Therefore, these lawless Loose Cultivators specifically targeted the wealthy Cultivators in the city, especially those who were alone.

If there was an opportunity, they would make a move and strike it rich.

This also led to frequent battles outside the city, and Cultivators often fell.

Even though he had heard of many similar things before, this was his first time experiencing such a thing himself.

When his clone went out of the city before, it wasn't as chaotic as it was now, nor was it this unscrupulous.

Clearly, as more and more Cultivators gathered in Miyun City, the public order here had become increasingly chaotic.

Thinking of this, Zhou Sui did not continue to hide his cultivation and immediately revealed the aura of Qi Refining Level 6.

Such a cultivation level was already considered quite good among Loose Cultivators.

Immediately, upon sensing the aura on Zhou Sui, the gazes of the surrounding Loose Cultivators dissipated quite a bit, and a hint of wariness vaguely appeared.

"Tch, a Qi Refining Level 6 Cultivator? I thought a fat sheep had appeared."

"Better hold back; this is a dying old man, who knows what kind of skills he might have."

"No need to take the risk; an old man like this who has lived until now must have many tricks up his sleeve."

"Even if we kill an old man like this, he won't have many Spirit Stones on him; he might even be poorer than us."

"Damn it, being so poor and still entering the city—what for?"

"Need to ask? Must be going to the brothels; earned a few Spirit Stones and gave them all to those brothel enchantresses."

"No wonder he's only at Qi Refining Level 6 at such an old age; he must have contributed all his money to women's bellies."

Many Loose Cultivators discussed among themselves.

They only wanted to get rich, not risk their lives, so naturally, they wouldn't make a move against a tough nut.

If they really fought, it would be fine if they won, but if they lost, they would lose their lives.

Plus, Zhou Sui looked like a penniless Cultivator; even if they slaughtered him, the harvest wouldn't be particularly large, and it would be a waste of effort and energy, so naturally, they wouldn't act rashly.

"Damn it, the wilderness is truly too dangerous; people want to kill for treasure at every turn. Fortunately, I am only a clone right now."

Zhou Sui was expressionless, pretending not to hear the words of the surrounding Cultivators. He felt extremely fortunate in his heart that he had refined a clone to act on behalf of his main body.

If his real body had come out, he might have easily lost his life.

As the saying goes, two fists are no match for four hands; there were so many Loose Cultivators with strange methods that no one could guarantee they would definitely be able to resist.

If one were careless, they would end up as a corpse.

Transforming into the appearance of an old man was also the right choice; if he were a young man, they might have already made a move on him.

Whoosh!

Thinking of this, he did not hesitate and immediately accelerated his pace, flying toward the Cloud Mist Mountain Range.

After all, the Red Gold Mine was inside the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, dozens of kilometers away from Miyun City.

He had long ago inquired about the location of the Red Gold Mine; this was not secret information, as there were many Miners in Miyun City, and it couldn't be hidden.

After running for a full half-hour, turning left and right, he finally moved away from Miyun City. All around were mountains, dense forests, and swirling clouds and mist, and the population gradually became sparse.

Zhou Sui also let out a sigh of relief; he had finally shaken off those wolf-like and tiger-like Loose Cultivators.

Although this was only an avatar, he needed to send the Gold-Eating Insect into the Red Gold Mine, so naturally, he could not die halfway, otherwise, all his previous efforts would be wasted.

"I hope no accidents occur."

Zhou Sui took a deep breath, remained vigilant, and set off toward the Red Gold Mine.

What?!

Suddenly, his divine sense swept out, instantly perceiving three black-clad Cultivators hidden in the jungle hundreds of meters away; the opponents were permeated with an evil, Darkness aura, and they seemed to be burdened with sin, which made one shudder.

Demonic Cultivators!

In an instant, this thought flashed through Zhou Sui's mind, because although ordinary Robber Cultivators were also filled with killing intent, they were at least not this evil.

But as for Demonic Cultivators, because they practiced Demonic Cultivation Methods, the true essence within their bodies contained demonic nature, and even the various means they used to cultivate were incomparably evil and cruel.

This also caused them to be completely different from ordinary Cultivators, being far more violent and bloodthirsty.

"Interesting, a mere Loose Cultivator was actually able to detect our presence; it seems this old man is not simple at all."

At this moment, those three Demonic Cultivators seemed to have sensed something and realized their whereabouts had been exposed, so they walked out from the jungle and appeared unscrupulously before Zhou Sui.
