C2042 Rock Wall Search for Spirit Stones
In the following day, it was unknown what happened. Sha Qiandao actually attacked that Spirit Force cultivator and beat him badly. After that, that person was taken away by the other experts. It was said that he was handed over to the higher ups of this mysterious sect and was executed by those higher ups.
As for why that Spirit Force cultivator offended Sha Qiandao and was beaten up by Sha Qiandao, these people were just hearsay. They didn't know the real reason.
Some people said that it was because that Spirit Force cultivator did not do well and guided the people to dig a very large tunnel. They could not find any medicinal Spirit Stones, so they were executed.
But there were also some people who said that it was because that Spirit Force cultivator secretly used medicinal Spirit Stones to cultivate and was found out by Captain Sha Qiandao, so he was executed. But the latter was real, and the former was fake.
When Wang Xiao had just arrived here, he had heard Hee San mention this matter before. Hee San had said at that time that there was originally a Spirit Force cultivator in Tenth Cave, but that person was dishonest. He actually secretly used medicinal Spirit Stones to cultivate, and was found and executed.
Hee San's story was the most reliable because that person was a Spirit Force cultivator. This sect wouldn't casually execute a Spirit Force cultivator unless that person really stole the Spirit Stones.
If it was just because that Spirit Force cultivator guided the hard work of the people to dig a mountain wall, but the Spirit Stone did not appear, then this kind of speech was unreliable. After all, even if it was true, this sect did not suffer any losses. They only lost some hard labor.
But in the eyes of this mysterious sect, hard labor was not worth much at all. It was not worth mentioning. Wang Xiao walked towards the passage. When he walked to the front and back of the passage, he saw that the inside of the passage was pitch black.
The dark tunnel was like a dark abyss with no end in sight. Fortunately, he could not feel the cold wind while standing here. Otherwise, it would make his hair stand on end.
Without a torch, Wang Xiao would not go in easily. Although he heard from those people that there were no Spirit Stones in the tunnel, Wang Xiao still wanted to go in and take a look. Perhaps there would be unexpected gains, so he could only hold onto this mentality.
Without a torch, he could not move a single step. Even though Wang Xiao could enter the dark tunnel with his own cultivation base without a torch, this was too conspicuous.
After taking a torch off the wall, Wang Xiao turned to the torch and planned to enter the tunnel.
"Yu Qiang, what are you doing?"
A voice came from behind him. He turned around and saw a Vice Captain. The Vice Captain looked very bold as it strode towards Wang Xiao. Looking at its imposing manner, it seemed to treat Wang Xiao like an ant.
"Yu Qiang, what are you doing here?" The Vice Captain asked in a condescending manner.
Wang Xiao was very unhappy when he saw this guy's expression.
He really did not like people looking at him like this. With just this little strength of the Vice Captain, what right did he have to look at him like this? "I want to go in and take a look." Wang Xiao said.
"Yu Qiang, do you want to be lazy? Why don't you do anything?" Vice Captain asked.
"My job is done. I want to look around and see if I can find the rock wall with the most Spirit Stones and let the hard workers dig it out." Wang Xiao replied.
"Don't wander around. Go back to work quickly." The Vice Captain said unhappily. He was very arrogant toward Wang Xiao. He had a high and mighty expression on his face, as if Wang Xiao was his little brother.
"Vice Captain, Captain Sha Qiandao has allowed me to look around." Wang Xiao said rudely.
What was this guy? He was just a Vice Captain. As long as Captain Sha Qiandao was behind him, Wang Xiao didn't need to give him any face.
"Oh, so that's how it is. Continue." After leaving these words with an indifferent tone, the Vice Captain turned around and left in a huff. Actually, he was very dissatisfied with Wang Xiao's words.
Moreover, Wang Xiao also knew that saying these words in front of the Vice Captain was indeed unsuitable, but he did not want to care about the mood of the Vice Captain. The Vice Captain was also a cultivator, and also the management of this place.
When he said those words, what would he think? He would definitely think that he was using Captain Sha Qiandao to suppress him.
Looking at the angry back of the Vice Captain, Wang Xiao could guess that this bastard would definitely take revenge on him in the future. He would definitely think of a way to deal with him. But it didn't matter. In any case, he didn't intend to stay here for long.
Moreover, during this period of time, as long as he didn't make any mistakes, Vice Captain wouldn't dare to do anything to him. After all, with Sha Qiandao protecting him, even if this fellow had any objections to him, he could only bear with it.
The difference between the two of them was also very great.
Holding the torch, Wang Xiao walked into the tunnel.
The tunnel was very tall and more than three meters wide. It was so wide. It was more than enough for Wang Xiao to walk alone. The tunnel was very quiet. There were no coolies in sight. Wang Xiao walked quietly in the tunnel. He used powerful Spirit Forces to carefully inspect the surrounding rock walls.
With a torch in one hand, Wang Xiao's other hand followed his footsteps and gently stroked the rock. Why did it have to be like this? Because the sensitivity of a person's fingers was very high.
On the rock wall in the tunnel, there were traces of Wang Xiao after he had been artificially excavated.
The potholes were uneven. Along with Wang Xiao's investigation, he discovered that there were no medicinal Spirit Stones here. It was impossible. Logically speaking, there should be spirit energy here, because in the entire mountain's stone walls, there were usually medicinal Spirit Stones.
When he was outside, Wang Xiao had also investigated many areas. Although there were very few Spirit Stones in those areas, they were still considered there. Logically speaking, even if there weren't many Spirit Stones here, there should at least be some.
Could it be that there really weren't any Spirit Stones here? But since there weren't any Spirit Stones here, then why did that Spirit Force Cultivator lead the painstaking efforts to dig out the rock walls? Since that person had guided the Ku Li people to dig out the rock walls, then he definitely had his reasons.
Wang Xiao did not believe that the reason why this person guided the hard labor to dig out this tunnel was just to open up a path to escape. This was nonsense, it was impossible.
According to Wang Xiao's estimation, since this man guided the hard labor to dig, he must have his own purpose. Perhaps there really were medicinal Spirit Stones here, it was just that he did not discover it. With this kind of mentality, Wang Xiao continued walking.
The tunnel was pitch black. Although he held a torch, the range of the torch's illumination was limited. Wang Xiao was not willing to give up. He did not believe that there really was no Spirit Stone here. He could not find a single Spirit Stone.
Clang! Clang!
Ding! Ding! Ding!
...
The sounds of the labourers digging into the belly of the mountain were clearly heard by Wang Xiao. These sounds were very noisy and endless. The sound came in through the tunnel, and it was especially clear.
The tunnel was uneven. Sometimes it went up, and sometimes it lowered. Wang Xiao followed the terrain and walked forward. Although it was quiet here, Wang Xiao did not care.
At this moment, his mind was filled with thoughts of Spirit Stones. He only wanted to find Spirit Stones. As long as he could find medicinal Spirit Stones, as long as he had the chance to advance to Tier 2, even if he suffered some hardship, it was still worth it.
Walking through the dark mountain belly passageway, There were no attendants by his side. Being alone gave him a cold feeling. Humans were born to dislike being in dark places, and they did not like being alone.
However, Wang Xiao was not only alone in dark places, but also alone. He felt a sense of loss in his heart. This feeling of loss. Only Wang Xiao could experience this feeling.
The tunnel was very long. Digging such a long tunnel was not something that could be completed overnight. Moreover, the hard work here did not have the help of any machines when they were digging the tunnel. They used all their manpower, so they needed to spend more time.
The sound of the hard work outside still entered Wang Xiao's ears, but it was getting farther and farther away. It was getting fainter and fainter.
Ta Ta Ta
Step, step. Step, step, step.
The only things that accompanied Wang Xiao were his footsteps and his heavy footsteps. It had been a few minutes since he entered this place, but he still did not find any Spirit Stones. The stone walls around him did not emit the slightest fluctuation of spirit energy from Genuine Qis.
Could it be that this place was really barren, and there really weren't any Spirit Stones at all? Wang Xiao did not believe it. He continued walking forward. Since he had already entered this place, even if there were no Spirit Stones here, Wang Xiao still had to continue walking.
Even if there were no medicinal Spirit Stones, he would not give up halfway. He had to reach the end. Even if he really did find nothing, he had to reach the end. When he reached the end, there might be new discoveries, or there might not be any. However, regardless of whether it was true or not, Wang Xiao was willing to do so.
The road was under their feet. If they did not reach the end of the road, they would never know what was at the end of the road. Only those who chose to walk bravely would have the right to know.
Finally, under Wang Xiao's insistence, he arrived at the end of the tunnel. The end was not big. The tunnel was wide outside and narrow inside.
The end was not as wide as the outside, but it was more than three meters tall and more than one meter wide. It was wide enough for Wang Xiao to walk alone.
Holding the torch in his hand, Wang Xiao lit the flame of the torch on the stone in front of him. There was nothing special about the stone wall here. There was nothing on the stone wall except the marks left by the manual work.
Looking at the stone walls, Wang Xiao slowly stretched out his hand. This was the end of the mountain. Whether or not there were Spirit Stones here would depend on the end. If there were no Spirit Stones here, Wang Xiao would be very disappointed.
His goal of entering this place would also be very difficult to achieve. When he first snuck into this place, Wang Xiao originally wanted to obtain Spirit Stones and increase his cultivation base. However, he had never thought that the medicinal Spirit Stones here would be so rare. It was as rare as a huge wave sweeping across the sand.
"Hu!"
Wang Xiao took a deep breath.2
All hope was here. How could he not be nervous? How could he not care?
After touching the stone wall with his finger, Wang Xiao used the Spirit Force. The powerful Spirit Force flowed through Wang Xiao's entire body and reached his fingertip. Then, from the tip of his finger, it quickly entered the mountain wall.
The Spirit Force was like a sensor, sensing the Spirit Stone Qis inside the belly of the mountain. As long as there were Spirit Stones inside, he would definitely be able to feel it. Since there was no one here, Wang Xiao was able to use the Spirit Force without holding back, using all the Celestial Rank Stage Celestial Rank Stages without holding back.
Under Wang Xiao's senses, he found that the Spirit Force was like an earthworm, quickly swimming through the stone wall. However, its speed was many times faster than earthworms.
No.
No.
Still no.
Still no.
Following the Spirit Force into the mountain wall, Wang Xiao kept shaking his head. Because there was nothing here. There was no fluctuation of the Spirit Stone Qi at all. As long as there were Spirit Stones in the mountain wall, Wang Xiao would definitely be able to sense the fluctuations of the Genuine Qis inside.
"Sigh!"
Wang Xiao sighed in disappointment. Could it be that there really were no Spirit Stones here? He really didn't know why that Spirit Force cultivator had forced those people to open up this tunnel. Perhaps, it was because the hard labor force offended him. This person wanted to take revenge on the hard labor force, so he deliberately thought of a vicious method.
