The cave was long, and it looked very dark inside, but fortunately every once in a while there was a moonlight leaf, and the moonlight leaf emitted a faint white light, illuminating the surrounding mine.

As soon as Ye Chen and the three of them walked into the mine, they were discovered, and many miners cast cautious glances, and some quietly lowered their heads, using special tools to pry open the rock leaves and pull out the spirit stones inside.

Ye Chen smiled faintly, under the cover of a powerful divine soul, he clearly knew whose heartbeat was faster, whose hand was shaking, and he could find the spirit stones hidden in the corner, some spirit stones were even used secret methods, but they couldn't stop Ye Chen's exploration.

However, Ye Chen acted as if he had nothing to do, and did not expose them, nor did he go to search for spirit stones.

He walked unhurriedly to the end of the mine and came out again.

He clearly felt that some people's expressions relaxed, and a few even showed snickering joy.

When Ye Chen was about to leave the mine, he suddenly turned his head and said lightly: "I know that some of you have hidden spirit stones, I don't blame you, after all, in front of the treasure, everyone will be tempted." But motivation cannot be a reason for you to steal, and the labor you pay can only be exchanged for golden tickets, not spirit stones. When you defeat the Great Xia Kingdom, I will naturally reward you with spirit stones. ”

"So, if any of you secretly hid the spirit stone and secretly handed it over in a few days, even if the matter is revealed, if I find out in the end, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people. ”

After Ye Chen finished speaking, he inspected a few more mines, did nothing, and left.

After Ye Chen left, the mine was noisy again.

"Who was that young man just now, and why is Lord Zhao still behind him?" asked the older miner.

"If I'm not mistaken, he is Ye Chen. A middle-aged man pondered.

"What? He is the Ye Chen who can not only alchemy but also help people break through the realm? I heard that he also killed the powerhouse of the Spirit Pill Realm and was named a national teacher by the emperor. One of the people next to him exclaimed.

"Yes, and he also has a duty to monitor the mines, which is why he said those words to us. The middle-aged man nodded.

"Hey, did you think he just saw that we were getting sick?"

"Hey, he's going to see it, it's been debunked a long time ago. What he just said was a bluff. ”

Some bold miners don't care.

In a corner of the mine, Xu Dong breathed a sigh of relief and said to Chen Bai: "It's okay, support the bold, starve the cowardly, let's do it boldly." ”

"Good. Chen Bai also thought that Ye Chen was bluffing.

Outside the volcano, Zhao Wu couldn't help but ask, "Ye Xiaoyou, is what you just said true or false?"

"Of course it's true, I'm just too lazy to find out about them, after all, I have other things to do, and I can't spend every day here with them. I reminded them today that if they don't stop, don't blame me for being ruthless. ”

A cold light flashed in Ye Chen's eyes, when Yan Wu was facing the invasion of the Great Xia Kingdom, he was still thinking about the martial artist who had filled his pockets, and if he died, he would die, there was no pity.

"Lord, let's go, and in fourteen days, I'll come back. ”

Ye Chen waved his hand and left without hesitation.

Zhao Wu looked at it and grinned, this is the end of it? Come over before the Great Xia Kingdom attacks? How do you feel that Ye Chen, the inspector, is so unreliable.

"Forget it, I usually use my mind. Zhao Wu sighed.

After that, the spirit stone mine mined spirit stones step by step every day, and a large number of spirit stones poured into the royal family of the capital, and then distributed to the army, families and offerings.

Some miners are more restrained and honestly mine, while some are even more arrogant, and even steal more spirit stones than they have handed in.

Since then, Ye Chen has never been to the spirit stone mine, he has been cultivating for half a day and making runes for half a day.

A large number of golden armor talismans and sword qi talismans were distributed to the martial artists of the Spirit Realm who had long been on standby.

Shen Ming, vice president of Yanwu Martial Academy, Xue Pan, president of the Fang family, Fang Ao and others all came over to help make runes, and there were more than 700 runes made every day.

Zhao Zhen was responsible for repairing the capital's defense array, and with a steady supply of spirit stones, the capital's defense array was quickly repaired.

Gonggong Li tested it, and he hit it with all his strength, and he couldn't even turn over a wave.

At the same time, the strong people scattered all over Yanwu have returned.

The royal family issued a task, all the warriors who assisted in resisting the invasion of the Great Xia Kingdom, after the end, they could get a reward of spirit stones, as little as ten pieces, as many as one hundred, and if they killed the masters of the Great Xia Kingdom, they could even get a huge reward of one thousand spirit stones.

For a time, it attracted many strong people to come.

Heavenly Dao City Lord Wang Xu, Heavenly Dao Academy Dean Du Lanxi, Martial Academy Dean Peng Cheng, Physician Chen Yuehai and others all came.

And some scattered villages and market towns around the capital were forcibly relocated to avoid destruction in battle.

After that, the army gathered, and the living materials and resources from all over the country continued to gather in the capital to prepare for a protracted war.

Yan Wuso's Dan Master and Refiner also came to the capital, refining pills day and night, hemostatic pills, blood pills, etc., as for the pills that restore true qi, there is no need to practice, as long as they go to the battlefield, they have three spirit stones in their hands for backup.

For a time, the wind was surging, and the clouds of the great war quickly enveloped the entire capital.

In the martial arts arena of the Imperial City, there were more than 10,000 martial artists of the Spirit Realm standing densely.

In front of the martial arts arena, Emperor Zhao Yong, Prince Zhao Zhen, and the Imperial Spirit Pill Realm and the Seven Evil Realms were enshrined, and Ye Chen, Li Gonggong and others stood in a row.

With Ye Chen and the others working day and night, 10,000 runes were made in advance, and the results were to be tested today.

Because runes can be used many times as long as they don't exert their maximum power at once, it is necessary to practice them a few times, and then they can cooperate seamlessly when the time comes to really fight.

"Listen to my command and activate the sword qi talisman. Ye Chen waved his hand and pointed into the air.

The seven thousand Spirit Realm martial artists who held the sword qi talisman all activated the sword qi talisman, although it only slightly stimulated the sword qi talisman, but the seven thousand sword qi slammed into the air, producing a huge impact.

A cloud in mid-air was instantly blasted into slag, and for a moment, the sky was white, and nothing existed. Even the aura in mid-air was shattered.

"Awesome. The emperor, prince and others were very excited, "With this hole card, we are not afraid of any more spirit pill realm powerhouses." ”

"Hehe, as long as the capital array lasts for a while, we can still make more runes, and let them have no return when the time comes. ”

Ye Chen smiled confidently.

"Master Ye, I just received news that the army of the Great Xia Kingdom has been assembled, the vanguard army has set off, and it is time to clean up the spirit stone mine. Zhao Zhen said.

"Okay, I'll go to the Spirit Stone Mine tomorrow. Ye Chen nodded.

It's time to go on a killing spree.

After half a month of mining, the volcanic spirit stone mine has changed beyond recognition except for the appearance of the mine.

Countless mines are staggered, some are halfway mined, and no spirit stones have been abandoned, and some have stretched to thousands of meters underground, almost hollowing out the volcano exposed on the surface.

Due to the lack of strict supervision, many people have become more and more bold, and some people even blatantly hide spirit stones privately, they find a way to get storage rings from outside, and they don't know how many spirit stones are hidden.

"I heard we can withdraw today. ”

"Great, I can finally go out and cultivate. ”

"Hehe, you didn't miss it. ”

"Of course, you haven't been short of hiding. ”

"I hope that today can pass in peace, and the rest of my life will not be worried. ”

"Don't worry, the Great Xia Kingdom is about to attack, and they don't have that much time to search us. ”

The warriors of the mining talked a lot, some fidgeting, and some were very arrogant and didn't care.

Xu Dong and Liu Bai hid half of the spirit stone in a remote place, made a mark, and put the other half on the storage ring.

"I spent a lot of money to get this storage ring, and it is engraved with a hidden rune, as long as it is not used, even a Spirit Pill Realm martial artist will not be able to detect it. Xu Dong was triumphant.

"Then why don't you put all the spirit stones in it, in case we just left, the people of the Great Xia Kingdom attacked and occupied the spirit stone mine, and half of our spirit stones were robbed by them. Liu Bai looked worried.

"That's such a coincidence, I inquired, it will take at least a day for the vanguard army of the Great Xia Kingdom to attack. Besides, we can't put all the spirit stones in one basket, and we can share the risk by dividing them. Xu Dong said.

"Brother Xu, you are really thoughtful. Liu Bai admired.

"Hehe, you follow me and wait for the food and spicy drink. Xu Dong said confidently.

"Everybody come out and assemble at the entrance. ”

At this time, there was a shout outside, full of energy, it was Zhao Wu's voice.

Soon, the martial arts miners walked out of the volcano one after another, and then they saw more than a hundred elite soldiers composed of martial artists from the Seven Evil Realms, and their momentum was soaring, and they were not much weaker than the momentum of their ten thousand martial artists.

The leader was Ye Chen, who had been inspecting for more than ten days.

After Ye Chen watched everyone come out, he glanced at them lightly, did not speak, and walked straight to the mine.

Gonggong Li and Zhao Wu also followed.

"Ye Xiaoyou, there are too many caves, when will we find the spirit stones that they hid. Zhao Wu said with a sad face.

"Soon. ”

Ye Chen casually kept a deep mine cave, and Gonggong Li's body was like a phantom, floating over, blasting open a large leaf, revealing a large pile of spirit stones. The most important thing is that this large pile of spirit stones, there is not the slightest spiritual energy overflowing, even if there are warriors passing by, they can't imagine that there are spirit stones here.

"Hiss~"

Zhao Wu gasped and looked at Ye Chen in surprise: "How did you do it?"

You must know that as a powerhouse in the Spirit Pill Realm, he didn't find out just now that Ye Chen was really evil.
