Chapter 5175

Ever since Zi Chen entered Pofa City, such peaceful times were extremely rare.

No one disturbed him as he refined the black stones one by one.

Occasionally, Du Ni would come out and tell him about the situation inside.

Monk, Devil Ape, and the rest had reached the Six Powers Realm in a short span of ten years with the help of many resources.

Under Su Mengyao's arrangement, they appeared in some important positions and helped Zi Chen manage the distribution of resources.

Zi Chen's few black stone veins were all very profitable, but he also had to take care of the cultivation of those Shadow Destroyers.

Du Ni came out again and told Zi Chen that those Spell Breakers had found three suspected passageways. After opening them, they found that they were already damaged.

Currently, they had found a fourth and were trying to open it.

He reminded Zi Chen that the real passageway would open sooner or later and asked him to be careful.

Once those Spell Breakers were free, the first person they would deal with would most likely be Zi Chen.

After Du Ni left, Zi Chen relayed the news to Su Mengyao.

After a discussion, the two decided to bring all the Shadow Destroyers out of Pofa City.

Once Zi Chen was in danger, no one would help them deliver resources. Then, their cultivation would stagnate again.

Zi Chen did not go. This time, it was Xiaowei who led the way. Miao Miao was the leader while Devil Ape, Monk, and the rest followed behind.

They were mainly in charge of reaching the depths. Next, Xiaowei would go to Soul Mountain alone and bring them out.

Xiaowei was now a Six Powers Realm cultivator.

She had the Shadow Rule and was good at hiding.

After Xiaowei returned, she told everyone about the current situation. After the old man nodded in agreement, everyone followed them out.

They left the place they relied on for survival. After coming out, everyone looked around curiously.

Even though it was night, it did not affect their excitement.

After that, the two parties met and escorted everyone out of Pofa City.

Fortunately, the Spell Breakers had no time to care about these people. Otherwise, a battle would have broken out.

Zhang Haotian had been cultivating in the Killing Crystal mine for more than ten years.

He continued to absorb the killing intent here. To others, this was used to refine weapons, but he used it to refine his body, cultivate, and break through.

If Zi Chen were here, he would find that this place was no longer the same as before.

The area of the underground mine was even larger, and some caves were built. It was like an underground world, going down layer by layer.

The Spirit of Slaughter was in the deepest part of the Spirit of Slaughter. Yuan Sha had brought Zhang Haotian there once, but halfway there, he couldn't take it anymore.

Thus, he retreated.

There was a huge crystal in the place where he cultivated. It looked like a door.

Killing intent continuously surged out from within.

"Buzz!"

Suddenly, a surge of killing intent gushed out, instantly enveloping the surroundings.

Zhang Haotian felt a bone-piercing sensation. It was as if there were countless rays of sword light invading his body, straight into his bones.

He continued to sit cross-legged without moving, allowing the killing intent to linger around him.

He tempered his body with killing intent!

A person walked out from the crystal. He glanced at Zhang Haotian who was cultivating, then looked around before turning to leave.

This was a door that could be entered and exited.

A moment later, the killing intent weakened, and Zhang Haotian opened his eyes.

"This is the second one."

It was rare for two people to come out in one day.

When he first came, Zi Chen told him that Yuan Sha lived here and that there were many Killing Crystals here.

After he really cultivated here, he knew that Yuan Sha wasn't the only one here. As time passed, there were more and more people.

Footsteps sounded. Zhang Haotian turned his head and saw Yuan Sha walking over.

"Your progress is obviously slower here. Follow me to the next level."

Zhang Haotian stood up and followed Yuan Sha to the next level.

Halfway through, Zhang Haotian found that some places were different from a few months ago, so he asked, "Don't you guys plan to go out?"

There were many caves here, and the people who came out all lived here.

"It's good to live here!"

Yuan Sha said, "The killing intent here is very suitable for us Spirits of Slaughter, just like the spiritual lands where others live."

Yuan Sha had long told Zhang Haotian that they belonged to the Spirits of Slaughter.

This was a very unique group.

When they came to the next level, the killing intent here was indeed more abundant, but it was still two levels away from the depths of the ground where the Spirits of Slaughter lived.

Eugene came to Ji Hong's residence, where he was drinking tea.

Eugene entered the room and saluted Ji Hong with his hands folded.

Ji Hong asked, "How is it?"

"Sir, Zi Chen hasn't broken through yet."

Eugene really didn't understand why Sir paid so much attention to Zi Chen but didn't allow him to go out personally. Instead, he had Du Ni ask about Zi Chen every time.

"Did you bring any resources out?"

"Yes, Du Ni brought all the resources out, but there was no effect."

Ji Hong tapped the wooden table with his fingers and couldn't help but frown. "Is it because of his identity as a Shadow Destroyer?"

Eugene said, "It's possible. After all, Zi Chen represents the upper limit of the Shadow Destroyer realm here."

Before Zi Chen broke through to the Seven Strength Realm, there were no Seven Strength False Shadow Destroyers here. But after Zi Chen broke through, the original Six Strength Realm broke through in less than three days.

In the next dozen years, those Seven Strength Realm cultivators stopped again. None of them broke through.

"Time is tight. This is the only way."

Ji Hong had an extra item in his hand. It was a black stone that looked exactly like the soul stone outside, but it was brighter. From afar, it looked like a real and complete rule.

The moment it appeared in Ji Hong's hand, a soul storm seemed to form around it.

Eugene's expression suddenly changed. He felt uncomfortable in his head.

Fortunately, Ji Hong quickly sealed it with energy, and the uncomfortable feeling disappeared.

"Sir, this is …?"

He looked at the stone in shock.

Ji Hong said, "I got it a few years ago. It's related to the Shadow Destroyer Clan. Have someone give it to Zi Chen and let him refine it as soon as possible. It's best if he can break through to the Eight Strength Realm in one go."

"Yes!"

Eugene stepped forward and took the black stone with both hands.

After Eugene left, Ji Hong took out six crystals and placed them in several places.

One of them was very bright. It was at the back.

As for the other two, the light they emitted was much dimmer.

As for the remaining three, they were dim and lightless.

He looked at the crystals in strange positions. His expression grew more solemn. He murmured, "Back then, we had the Soul Killer Clan to suppress the Outlawed Spirit Demons. Who can we rely on this time?"

At this moment, if a Spell Breaker was here, he would be able to tell at a glance that the crystals represented the places where they had found the mysterious channel.

The three dim crystals represented three channels that had been destroyed.

The fourth crystal was the one they were trying to open.
