Chapter 19 The Three Forbidden Curses of Mora

With a wave of Meng Ping's sleeve, more than 20 flat and long hoes dropped to the ground.

He said slowly: "This is a mining hoe. Although it is a low-grade magic weapon, it has a unique structure and is more suitable for digging ores than ordinary high-grade magic weapons."

"Take one each of you, and get to work right away."

"Meng Gui, take them there!"

After finishing speaking, Meng Ping bowed down and bowed to the third elder, then strode away.

On weekdays, he would cooperate with three other peak Qi training monks to preside over the basic operation of the seven-color rainbow formation, and he could not leave the formation for too long.

The number of mining hoes is just right, and they are exactly the same custom-made instruments, so everyone has nothing to choose from.

Soon, everyone had a brown hoe in their hands.

"Third Elder, the younger generation took them in first."

Meng Gui said respectfully.

The many miners following him also bowed their heads and left involuntarily.

This is the majesty of a high-ranking monk.

Even if Meng Lingqiu killed one of them without batting an eye just a moment ago.

"Follow me closely, the interior of the mine is intricate, and it is easy to get lost."

Meng Gui said in a cold voice, and stepped into the mine first.

The cave is silent and gloomy, and you can't see your fingers.

"tick tick"

A gust of wind blew, and only the dripping water from the protruding corner of the rock above could be heard.

Fortunately, here are all practitioners with spiritual power, and the darkness and cold will not affect the team's progress.

After walking for about five miles, the passage became narrower and narrower, and there were more and more forks between them.

After everyone turned a big bend, their eyes suddenly lit up, and a brightly lit and spacious platform came into view.

The platform has a radius of fifty feet, and the eight night pearl trays standing in the corners exude a soft halo.

There are a few futons in the center, and two solemn-looking monks are standing aside, staring at this side.

"Hey! This group actually recruited more than [-] people. It seems that you can get another reward, Brother Gui. After you go back, you can treat me to a good fairy food."

The speaker was an ugly monk in a khaki gown, who seemed to be familiar with Meng Gui, and spoke very casually.

Meng Gui replied with a smile and cursing: "Meng Yan, you have been cultivating immortality for dozens of years, why can't you control your mouth?"

"Why bother? Xiuxian road is miserable, and only food and liquor can relieve the worries."

Meng Yan retorted solemnly.

Gazing at him, Meng Gui turned around, pointed at the slightly hunchbacked middle-aged monk beside Meng Yan, and said, "This is Yu Mei, fellow Daoist Yu, and the three of us are the supervisors here, responsible for the big and small affairs here."

"You have to come to the platform once every 30 days and hand in your shares. I advise you to put aside the idea of ​​hiding your personal interests. The third elder can't rub the sand in his eyes. You have seen it before."

"In addition, the first day of each month is the day when Bigu Pills are issued, don't forget."

Chen Ping released his consciousness quietly, and sized up the three supervisors.

He discovered that both Meng Yan and Meng Gui were at the seventh level of Qi training.

Yu Meichang's realm is the highest, reaching the eighth level of Qi training.

The surname is Yu, and he is also the supervisor of the mine vein. The origin of this person can be guessed.

The Yu family on Mingyuan Island currently has three foundation-building cultivators alive, and they have been at odds with the Chen family for many years.

"Brother Gui, have you explained the rules of the mine to them on the way?"

Meng Yan interrupted him and said with a smile.

The three supervisors looked at each other without showing any signs, and finally Yu Meichang said: "Yu reminds you that killing is prohibited in the mine. If someone dies, my Yu family and Meng family will investigate to the end!"

Chen Ping's eyelids shrank when he heard the words, Yu Meichang's words had a lot of meaning!
Only those who are dead will be held accountable. If there is no death, but only a little injury or looting of property, they are afraid that they will acquiesce.

Even the two are happy to meet.

If you hand over [-] catties of copper crystals every month, you will get seven spirit stones, and every hundred catties in excess is equivalent to one spirit stone.

If the share is not enough, the current month's salary will be deducted.

If half of the people do not pay enough, the wages saved every year is not a small amount.

Most cultivators are quick-witted, and after a short thought, everyone understands the risks and opportunities involved.

Within a short while, more than a dozen newly recruited miners approached slowly tacitly, and hugged together.

There are only a few self-confident monks standing alone, disdain to be with others.

Chen Ping was naturally one of them.

What surprised him was that Ye Mofan, who was more than ten feet away from him, only had the fifth level of Qi training, and he didn't gang up with everyone.

"Here is the map of the veins and the night pearl, each of you will get one."

After Meng Yan finished distributing the map, he pointed to the uppermost area on the right side of the map and said sharply, "This area painted in black is forbidden to enter. Anyone who approaches within one mile will be killed without mercy!"

"Two months ago, a fellow Taoist sneaked in against the advice, and the bones are still hanging there. Those who don't believe in evil can go and pay their respects!"

Meng Yan's words were barbed, and he warned.

Everyone was frightened and said again and again that they came to Fujishan Island to earn Lingshi, and no one wanted to make troubles.

"Presumably this is the reason why the Meng family's recruitment is abnormal this time."

Chen Ping secretly glanced at the map, and there was indeed an area marked in black ink on the northeast corner, which occupied about [-]% of the entire mine vein.

It's worth noting that after hearing Meng Yan's words, Ye Mofan, the Pianpian son, inadvertently flashed a gleam of joy in his eyes, and quickly covered it up.

"Huh? This kid seems to have guessed something."

Chen Ping's consciousness has been lurking outside, easily caught the change in Ye Mofan's expression, and secretly kept an eye on him.

After the explanation of the matter was over, the three supervisors including Meng Gui stopped talking to everyone and sat back on the futons and closed their eyes to rest.

"Fellow Daoist Xing is going to form a team and only accept our new batch of miners. Would you like to join, fellow Daoist?"

Nie Qian walked over slowly and asked Chen Ping.

"This mine has been mined for several years, and the old miners must have formed a group. Although Daoist friends are outstanding, they are hard to beat with two fists. It would be bad if some old miners join forces."

Seeing that Chen Ping didn't respond, Nie Qian added softly.

Chen Ping squinted at the monk surnamed Xing, who also bowed his hands to him from a distance, with a slightly arrogant look.

Among their 23 new miners, one was strangled to death by Meng Lingqiu, leaving 22 miners.

On the bright side, this cultivator surnamed Xing is the strongest, and he is the only one among them at the seventh level of Qi training.

Moreover, a few monks of the sixth level of Qi training also joined the team of monks surnamed Xing.

At present, only he, Ye Mofan, and a young monk carrying a long stick magic weapon are still on the side alone.

Facing Nie Qian's invitation, Chen Ping ignored him, quickly put away the map and other things, and ran to the depths of the mine in silence.

"you!"

Nie Qian raised her eyebrows and snorted angrily, "I really don't know what's good or bad! According to the marks on the map, there are more than one kind of herd monsters living in the mine. Don't regret it when you encounter them!"

"You don't need to be angry with such an arrogant person, Nie Daoyou, let's set the rules of the team first!"

The monk surnamed Xing said calmly, showing a trace of ridicule in the direction where Chen Ping left.

He has won most of the people's hearts, and it doesn't matter if there is one less guy who can practice Qi at the sixth level.

Holding the Ye Mingzhu and referring to the map, Chen Ping chose some remote and narrow branch passages to enter.

Along the way, at first he could meet a few groups of monks who were mining, but under his deliberate avoidance, there was no drama of robbery and wealth.

An hour later, Chen Ping finally came to the edge of the vein.

The ore veins extend to this point, and the copper crystals in the square rock walls have gradually decreased, and they are all scattered fragments.

There are only a few miles away from the isolation mask of the seven-color rainbow array.

Chen Ping stopped moving forward, summoned the Jade Sword, gathered his spiritual energy and slashed down on the rock wall.

"Boom"

A large piece of gray rock mass was chipped away, revealing a hole big enough for several people to sit side by side.

Chen Ping jumped in.

"It seems that it is necessary to practice Mo Luo's Blood Explosion Technique and Mo Luo's Escape Shadow Step."

Chen Ping frowned, and made a decision after deliberation.

Mo Luo's Blood Explosion Technique, Mo Luo's Shadow Step, and the spider web blood seal he used to control Xue Yun belonged to the list of Mo Luo's three forbidden curses.

This Mara Three Forbidden Curse has an extraordinary origin, and it is the sect-repressing secret technique of a certain top-level golden core magic sect tens of thousands of years ago.

Mo Luo's Three Forbidden Curses belong to the upper ranks of the Mysterious Grade, and in terms of magic, they are not inferior to the Nine Changes of Flames.

Mo Luo's Blood Explosion Technique detonated the blood essence and life essence in the monk's body with a secret method, thereby quickly gaining strength beyond his own.

Mo Luo's Shadow Escape Step consumes the monk's blood essence and turns into a void phantom, fleeing a hundred miles away.

In the realm of Dzogchen, it is even more capable of traveling thousands of miles in a blink of an eye, which is beyond the reach of Jindan Daoist.

The spider web blood seal can plant restrictions in the body of a monk whose cultivation level is lower than his own.

Compared with the other two spells, it is unremarkable.

Of course, the price of release is also much lower, it will only drain the spiritual power of the whole body.

In his previous life, Chen Ping accidentally obtained the cultivation method of Mara's Three Forbidden Curse in a secret place.

However, it is a fragmentary copy, which only records the secrets of the first two levels, that is, the secrets of the exercises of the entry level and the small achievement level.

Disappointed, the previous life had to put it on the shelf, and did not practice deeply.

"Mo Luo's Blood Explosion Technique, Mo Luo's Shadow Escape Step."

Chen Ping reviewed the cultivation methods of these two forbidden curses, and a ruthless expression appeared on his face unconsciously.

……

After 27 days.

Shaking off the dust on his shoulders, Chen Ping slowly opened his eyes.

Looking at his real appearance hidden under the mask, he is actually a bit older than before, with a few strands of silver quietly mixed in his jet-black hair.

The price of practicing Mara's forbidden spell is extremely high.

Just opening up the special meridian route will take nearly ten years of life.

Fortunately, Chen Ping is only in his early 30s, and his life expectancy is quite sufficient.

Otherwise, I really dare not spend so much.

Over the past few days, Mara's Blood Explosion Technique and Mara's Escape Shadow Step have been cultivated to the entry level respectively.

The entry-level Blood Explosion Technique needs to burn three years of lifespan and ten drops of blood essence each time it is used, which increases the mana of the Qi cultivator by [-]% and lasts for half an hour.

But after the effect, it will fall into a period of weakness, and its spiritual power and consciousness will be passively closed by backlash, and it will be no different from ordinary people within five days.

The entry-level Shadow Escape Step, the casting cost is slightly lower than that of Blood Explosion.

Each time you draw five drops of blood essence, you can escape hundreds of miles within thirty breaths.

As long as there is enough blood, the Shadow Escape Step can be used uninterrupted.

However, the total amount of blood essence in the body of a qi practitioner is usually between fifty and eighty drops.

Essence and blood are related to the longevity of monks.

If you lose too much, you will fall into unpredictable difficulties when you break through the bottleneck.

Moreover, essence and blood are not easy to replenish, unless there is a symptomatic heaven and earth spiritual object or elixir, otherwise it is absolutely difficult to recover on its own.

Therefore, regardless of Blood Explosion or Escaping Shadow Step, it should not be used easily when it is not in a desperate situation.

Chen Ping paid such a high price to break through Mo Luo's forbidden curse in order to reserve a way out for himself.

The foundation-builder monk Meng Lingqiu guarding outside the cave made him sit on pins and needles.

Besides, there are many strange things about the recruitment of the Meng family this time.

Will they really be allowed to leave after the ore is exhausted?
Chen Ping calculated dozens of times in his heart.

Once the Blood Explosion Technique is used, with the soul and mana that are far superior to those of the same level, he can at least compete with the monks in the early stage of foundation establishment for five to seven breaths.

Combined with the Shadow Escape Step, with the help of the spirit boat to sail to the vast sea, there is a half chance of escaping from the tiger's mouth.

"It's been almost a month."

Chen Ping frowned slightly, and in three days it would be the day to hand in the copper crystal.

But there was not even a piece of ore slag in his storage bag.

During these days, he has been immersed in the practice of secret arts, and as for the matter of digging copper crystals, he has long since left him behind.

Furthermore, he sneaked into Tengshan Island purely to destroy the enemy and seize treasures, how could he dig mines for the Meng family peacefully.

It's time to go out and find a few unlucky monks to "excuse" some copper crystals to deal with it.

Chen Ping held his chin, and a sinister smile like an old devil jumped on his face.

Under the illumination of the night pearl, it looks even more creepy.
