outsiders came for these things, didn't you Our Clan of Giants cultivates differently from you and requires different spiritual objects.”Although the Infant Soul Fruit is precious, it's not very usef...In Lingxiao Palace, these two brothers, despite being from different surnames, advanced and retreated together. Through their connections, they also managed to get several members of their family to join Lingxiao Palace one after another.

Later, the two accidentally entered a treasure trove during a sect mission. They found a foundation-building pill and a method for refining magical artifacts in a storage bag. This method included "Blood Transforming Gourd" and a large amount of materials for refining artifacts.

There was only one Qi Foundation Pill, which immediately stumped the two half-brothers. After all, an opportunity to form a foundation, no one wanted to give up.

At last, Qian Dali took the initiative to propose that if Weng Zhihan helped him refine a "Blood-Melting Gourd", he would give Weng Zhihan this Qi Condensation Pill.

When Weng Zhihan heard this, he was deeply grateful and agreed to help Qian Dali refine the weapon. Weng Zhihan originally possessed a natural talent for refining weapons. According to the refining method, he only intended to refine a quasi-magical artifact, which is a top-grade spirit tool. Unexpectedly, Weng Zhihan's character exploded, and he performed beyond expectations, actually refining a real magical artifact. At that moment, Weng Zhihan immediately presented this Blood-Staining Gourd to Qian Dali.

I thought this matter would end there, with both parties getting what they wanted. Unexpectedly, after receiving the money and the gift of the magic artifact, Qian Dali suddenly turned his face and directly used the newly acquired magic artifact against him. Without any defense, Wang Zhihan was severely injured by Qian Dali's attack.

“According to you, at that time, you were only a cultivator at the peak of the Qi Refining Stage, and you were able to escape from the sneak attack of a magic weapon” Lu Xiaoteng frowned and asked. He had never witnessed the power of a magic weapon, but without preparation, even a spirit tool used by a Qi Refining Stage cultivator would be enough to take a human life.

"The young hero has sharp eyes."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"From now on, call me Lu Xiaoteng." Lu Xiaoteng shook his head.

“Yes, Young Master Lu,” Wang Zhihan would certainly not really call Lu Xiaoteng by his name.

"The Blood-Staining Gourd was personally crafted by this old man. That beast Qian Dali just received it, thinking he had successfully refined it, but he didn't know that the old man made a slight oversight during the refining process. In fact, the Blood-Staining Gourd has a minor flaw. At that time, all this old man could think about was that Foundation Establishment Pill, and he also had some selfish intentions. He didn't explain it at the time. Qian Dali initially obtained the magic weapon, but he couldn't fully unleash its power. Furthermore, that treasure trove seemed to have a certain resistance to magic weapons used by cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage. After Qian Dali used the Blood-Staining Gourd, he seemed to have triggered the treasure trove's prohibition and was trapped there. That's why this old man managed to barely escape with his life."

Weng Zhihan's face was filled with remorse. "It was precisely because of that severe injury, coupled with the corrosive effects of the Blood-Staining Gourd's power, that my cultivation base has been steadily declining, falling all the way to the fifth level of Qi Refining."

"The little one fled back to Lingxiao Palace in a hurry. Thinking that his strength had improved greatly, and he had received the generous gift of Zhuji Dan, his power would surely increase even further. He would definitely not let the little one go. The treasure land's restrictions couldn't hold him for long either."

“The old man was injured and had no time to take his son and two nephews to flee. After much deliberation, he decided to enter the black water village mine. The terrain inside the mine was complex, and even a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage would have difficulty finding the four of them. He planned to hide in the mine for a year or so, hoping that Qian Dal禮 would eventually forget about them. However, he miscalculated. When his son went out to exchange for food, Qian Dal禮 had already reached the Foundation Establishment stage and used his power to expel them from the disciples of Lingxiao Palace. His son was killed by the guards outside. Since then, the old man and his two nephews have been trapped in the mine, never seeing the sun again.”

Speaking of this, Weng Zhihan couldn't help but shed tears of remorse.

"That damn old thief, Qian Dali! If I'm ever able to get out, I'll definitely go after that old bastard!" The young Weng Sujie said with hatred on his face.

"That old scoundrel is now a Qi-Building cultivator. Even if he could get out, he would have to flee far away. Otherwise, he would surely be harmed by him. However, there's no possibility of that now. My nephew and I, along with our third companion, are probably going to be trapped in this mine forever, living out our days here." Ong Zhihan sighed deeply, his peripheral vision glancing at Lu Xiaoteng, a flicker of hope in his heart.

Lu Xia Tian remained calm and unmoved by Wang Zhi Han's predicament. Right now, Qian Da Li only suspected that Lu Xia Tian possessed a peculiar treasure, leading Yu Bao to keep an eye on him. He wasn't planning to eliminate Lu Xia Tian just yet. If Lu Xia Tian helped Wang Zhi Han escape and this came to Qian Da Li's attention, it wouldn't be long before he faced fatal consequences. It seemed that Wang Zhi Han, the elderly man, also understood this. However, he wouldn't act out of pity and become a "good guy."

“I have seen a blue treasure gourd used for large sums of money, which can change size at will. Is the blood-transforming gourd you mentioned this thing What is the weakness of the blood-transforming gourd” Lu Xiaoteng asked.

“Not bad, it is indeed the item. The power of the Blood-Devouring Gourd comes from the seven drops of evil blood inside. Each drop of evil blood has a tiny blood-devouring formation. The seven drops of evil blood can also form the Seven Fiends Blood Devouring Formation. It has a blood-sucking effect on both human and monster blood. Moreover, it can absorb part of the power of cultivators of the same rank for its own use, so the more people killed, the longer the master cultivates, the greater the power of the Blood-Devouring Gourd. Now that Old Thief Qian has nurtured the Blood-Devouring Gourd for ten or dozens of years, with his ruthless personality, I'm afraid the power of the Blood-Devouring Gourd has far surpassed what it was before. However, what he never expected was that when I first refined the Blood-Devouring Gourd, my understanding of the Seven Fiends Blood Devouring Formation was not enough. When engraving this formation on the last drop of evil blood, there were some omissions in the formation. For those who don't understand this formation, it is completely useless. But for those who know the formation, they can exploit its weakness and escape from the formation. That's how I managed to save my life back then.”

Ong Zhihan's heart pounded. Although Lu Xiaoteng didn't intend to help the three of them escape from Heishui Village mine, he had to make a contribution, otherwise, he would lose Lu Xiaoteng, his powerful protector, for the next period of time. To be bullied again by such a local snake as Hu She in the mine was like living on borrowed time.

"Tell me the secret to the Seven Fiends Blood Devouring Formation, and this bottle of Qi Gathering Pill is yours." Lu Xia Tian hurled a small vial of pills toward Weng Zhi Han. Although he could pressure Weng Zhi Han into submission, relying solely on force wasn't ideal. To ensure that these three relatives would sincerely serve him for the next few years, he needed to entice them with benefits as well.

Upon receiving the pill, Weng Zhihan was astonished. Inside, there was even a mid-grade Gathering Qi Pill. It would be perfect for helping Weng Sujie break through to the middle stage of Qi Refining. Weng Zhihan excitedly nodded and said, "Thank you, Young Master Lu, for your generous gift! This old man will certainly be loyal and speak truthfully."

Whoosh! The sound of the platoon's footsteps echoed from the depths of the mine. The mine shaft was deep and narrow, so any sound travelled a long way.

The three of Uncle Wen and his nephew's faces changed, they instinctively retreated behind Lu Xiaoteng. Having witnessed Lu Xiaoteng's methods before, Uncle Wen didn't feel that the few of them could help Lu Xiaoteng. Faced with these menacing mine bosses, their strength was simply too low.
