Chapter 67: The Red Gold Mine is Attacked, Chaos is About to Begin

"Then what would you like us to do, Husband?"

Ji Bingyu looked at Zhou Sui with curiosity.

"Well, the reason I brought you down here this time is actually to ask what you think the Underground Shelter is still lacking, so we can prepare for it in advance."

"Even if it is a shelter, we still need to live a bit better and more comfortably."

Zhou Sui smiled slightly.

After all, this Underground Shelter was still just an extremely crude cave, filled with dirt everywhere and very primitive.

It was not very comfortable to live in.

So, he wanted his Dao Companions to renovate it to make this Underground Shelter a bit more comfortable.

If a war were to truly break out, they might have to hide in this place for a long time.

"Husband, the underground tunnels are still filled with Darkness. Although we, as Cultivators, can see in the dark, living in Darkness for a long time will still feel very uncomfortable."

"I suggest we go buy some Night-Shining Pearls; that way, even if we are underground, it can be as bright as day."

Ji Bingyu suggested.

Although Night-Shining Pearls are treasures in the secular world and quite expensive, in the world of immortal cultivation, they are just ordinary minerals, and apart from illumination, they basically have no great use.

One Low-grade Spirit Stone can buy a whole pile of Night-Shining Pearls.

"Husband, I think we also need to buy some wooden beds, bedding, pots, pans, and the like."

"Even if we live in the Underground Shelter, we still need to wash clothes and cook, right?"

Mu Ziyan wanted to decorate this shelter to be like a normal home and wanted to purchase various pieces of furniture.

"Not bad, you can go and purchase all of those."

Zhou Sui nodded with great satisfaction.

"But what about the air in the Underground Shelter? What about the water source? Can we live there for a long time?"

Xia Jingyan voiced her concerns.

"That is absolutely not a problem."

Zhou Sui smiled: "Underground is a Second-tier Spirit Vein. As long as we set up a Spirit Gathering Array, we can gather the Spirit Qi of heaven and earth, letting the Spirit Qi act as air, and we will be able to breathe underground just the same. Even without the aid of a Spirit Vein, we have a large amount of Spirit Stones on us that can be converted into air."

"As for the water source, that is even less of a problem. When I was excavating the underground tunnels earlier, I found many underground water sources. As long as we open them up, there will be a continuous supply of underground water."

He indicated that these were all completely non-issues; air, water, and sunlight were practically all available.

"Since that is the case, then I have nothing more to say."

Xia Jingyan nodded. She looked at her man with great tenderness; he was truly the man she had chosen, always considering everything thoroughly and in meticulous detail.

If they were to have children, he would likely be a good father as well.

Thinking of this, her pretty face flushed slightly, as if she were thinking of a very distant future.

…………

Several days later.

The Underground Shelter had been properly decorated by the three women, Ji Bingyu, Xia Jingyan, and Mu Ziyan. All kinds of living facilities were fully built; pots, pans, bed sheets, bedding, and all sorts of furniture had been bought back.

Even if they were to move in and live there now, there would be no problem at all.

Of course, it was not yet time to move in.

After all, no matter how perfect the facilities inside were, it was still an underground living space, which naturally could not compare to the living environment on the surface.

The Underground Shelter was merely an evacuation facility and would not be activated unless absolutely necessary.

Whoosh, whoosh~~

At this very moment, in the quiet room, Zhou Sui took another Gold Marrow Pill.

Immediately, the vast medicinal power was rapidly converted, instantly sinking deep into his body and flowing into his meridians, causing the True Essence deep within his Dantian Qi Sea to increase exponentially.

The medicinal power of one Gold Marrow Pill was enough to save him several months of bitter cultivation.

He circulated the Gu God Scripture, and the True Essence within his body circulated round after round, taking a step further toward the peak of Qi Refining Level 6.

"Almost there, my cultivation is about to reach the peak of Qi Refining Level 6."

Zhou Sui glanced at his Virtual Panel and discovered that after taking one Gold Marrow Pill, his cultivation had reached 95% of Qi Refining Level 6; only 5% more, and he would be able to break through to the Qi Refining Seventh Layer.

By then, he would be a Qi Refining Late Stage Cultivator.

It was all thanks to the appearance of this Xuanbao Pavilion auction; otherwise, where would he have been able to buy such good pills?

His cultivation would not have improved so rapidly.

"In another period of time, I will be able to attempt to break through to the Qi Refining Seventh Layer."

Zhou Sui clenched his fists and felt very satisfied; the vast True Essence within his body brought him a great sense of security.

No matter how good the shelter was, it ultimately could not compare to the sense of security brought by his own cultivation.

If he were a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, or even a Golden Core Real Person, there would be no need to build any shelter.

His own cultivation alone would be enough to crush all monsters and demons; who would dare to do him harm?

"Hmm?!"

Just at this moment, Zhou Sui's heart stirred. He sensed a message transmitted back from the Gold-Eating Insects; after all, there were still over a hundred Gold-Eating Insects staying in the Red Gold Mine that had not returned.

Because that Red Gold Mine was the cafeteria for the Gold-Eating Insects, it was naturally impossible for them to abandon such a good place.

Instantly, he perceived images from the Gold-Eating Insects: it seemed that black-clad Cultivators had suddenly appeared in the Red Gold Mine and began a massacre of the Miners inside.

Immediately following that, fierce battles erupted throughout the entire mine.

The Cultivators from both sides began to fight, and spells appeared in mid-air, causing the tunnels to collapse.

A large amount of rubble tumbled down.

Dust filled the air.

And the images came to an abrupt halt, because the Gold-Eating Insects sensed danger and fled one after another into the depths of the mine, infiltrating deep into the earth to avoid encountering these Cultivators.

After all, they only came here to devour Red Gold, not to clash with these Cultivators.

If they encounter unfamiliar Cultivators, they should avoid them if possible.

This was also the order Zhou Sui had issued to them.

"No way, someone attacked the Red Gold Mine of the Xianxia Sect? Could it be that the Youmo Sect really intends to show their hand and go to full-scale war with the Xianxia Sect?" A glint of light appeared in Zhou Sui's eyes.

Judging from the images transmitted by the Gold-Eating Insect, those black-clad Cultivators were permeated with an evil aura of Darkness.

Other than Demonic Cultivators, it was basically impossible for it to be any other type of Cultivator.

Although he did not know if the Youmo Sect was truly going to war with the Xianxia Sect, it was a fact that Demonic Cultivators had attacked the Red Gold Mine.

"It's chaotic, it's really going to be chaotic."

Zhou Sui suddenly felt a sense of urgency; although he had long anticipated something similar, when it truly arrived, he still felt waves of tension.

After all, even with the most extensive preparations, it is difficult to guarantee that no other accidents will occur.

It was just as he had expected.

The next day, Miyun City received the news that the Red Gold Mine had been attacked by Demonic Cultivators.

Most of the Xianxia Sect Cultivators perished in this attack, and a large number of Miner Cultivators also met their deaths.

Only a few cautious Cultivators were able to return alive.

They also fled back to Miyun City one after another to escape this catastrophe.
