Chapter 65 Bloody Campers!
As for Westward Bay, the water is dense and filled with chaotic True Qi. The True Qi is hard to absorb on the Westward Bay unless it is purified by a higher rank cultivator or a Qi Refining Formation.
Even cultivators of the Harmonization Realm will face difficulties in absorbing qi from Westward Bay directly.
Now, a good question. What will happen if the cultivators get buried thousands of meters underground in a mine that requires True Qi to get mined?
For low level cultivators, they will die like ordinary people under suffocation. Only those with higher cultivation realms or Earth attribute techniques can escape from this calamity.
But then, What will happen if their reaction time gets slowed or they get paralyzed?
A tiger might be a fierce beast, but with enough preparation, even a single trap can kill it.
And the trap that Lan Family fell into was meticulously prepared by Long Ming.
Ming Yuexin looked at Long Ming\'s smiling face as he snapped his fingers. " What happened?"
" The show has already begun."
Long Ming chuckled as everything started with the Sky Crackling Bead.
" So, You knew that our plans going to leak all along?"
" Leak? Well, I was the one who leaked everything." Long Ming chuckled.
When they first started to mine in Coral Island, Long Ming didn\'t have an ounce of trust in the servant disciples. With a little bribe, most of them could be bought in easily.
Therefore, Long Ming, Ming Yuexin, and some other trusted members did a stellar act. They mined the caves and tried to \'find\' the \'relics\' left behind by the ancestors of Four Seasons Valley. After all, Black Pearl City was founded by them.
And then, they also magically didn\'t care about the excavated ores since they knew Coral Island was practically empty. All of their focus was finding the artifact.
And coincidentally, some disciple tried to smuggle the ores out and then realized that it was Azure Mirthil! And coincidentally, they began to smuggle the ore sands from Coral Island to Lan Family to increase their trust and greed.
The Lan Family also bribed the servant disciples of Four Seasons Valley and kept all the \'information\' regarding the mining, the relics, and the intentions of Ming Yuexin. And since it matched with their own sources, they didn\'t suspect it at all.
" I already sent the letter a few days ago. The reinforcement shall arrive tomorrow." Ming Yuexin spoke.
" However, they won\'t act if the situation won\'t go according to your plan."
" Very well, We should enjoy tonight." Long Ming poured a glass of wine and started to drink.
Meanwhile, The troops of Lan Family were having a tough time.
" Fuck! They set up explosives here!"
" Chief! The entrance! The entrance has been blocked!"
The chief leading the miners and the guards were stunned as his expression turned ugly. " Retreat! This is a tra-
*BOOM BOOM BOOM*
The water of Westward Bay crashed into the mining tunnels like a flood it swept away everyone. However, before they could stabilize themselves, a weird green smoke exploded in the tunnel,l and the gas spread around.
The gas filled the air and it also mixed with the gushing water, affecting everyone in the range.
" This! Hurry up and block your breathing! This is poison!"
However, it was already too late. Most of them inhaled the smoke as they felt dizzying. Also, they felt like their True Qi flow got turbid as they got slammed into the rocky walls due to the flow of sea water.
The mine walls also started to collapse from the above as the tunnels were starting to bury the cultivator alive.
" Fuck! Everyone! Charge forward! Othereise we are all going to die here!"
The Harmonization Realm cultivators were the one who used their power to destroy the rocks. The Primordial Spirit Realm cultivators also charged behind them as they assisted with all their power.
However, most of the True Core Formation realm cultivators already fainted from the water and teh medicinal gas filling inside the mine. Even the Primordial Spirt Unification realm cultivators felt their body numbing as the unblocked the entrance.
" Haha! Entrance is cleared! Everyone, Charge out!"
The Harmonization realm cultivator used his powers as he blasted out the rocks. However, the moment he charged out, a black ray of light flashed as it landed on his chest.
*BOOOM*
" COUGH!"
The Harmonization Realm cultivator didn\'t expected such a surprise attack the moment he came out. He blasted backwards as he coughed a mouthful of blood. That one attack gave him grave injuries.
" Haha! Brothers! Look at these Lan Family bastards! It\'s time to get revenge!"
" Kill them! Revenge for our fallen brothers!"
" Pirates?! Why are they here? What about the forces outside the mine?"
They realized the troops stayed on teh surface was completely killed by the pirates.
" Three Feather Group, Aren\'t you afraid of our family\'s wrath?"
" Three Feather Group? We are only a bunch of pirates. And we are here to loot!" The pirate laughed coldly as he raised his saber.
" Everyone! Kill those bastards!"
The pirates were already prepared in everything. Before the Lan Family could properly organize themselves, the pirates unleashed their deadly attacks.
*BOOM BOOM*
" Blue Wave Slash!"
" Iron Shatter Fist!"
The techniques exploded in the air as they started to fight violently. Swords and sabers clashed as the pirates used all their might to kill Lan Family\'s troops.
" We need to take care of those two Harmonization Realm cultivators first. Activate the battle formation!"
*BOOM BOOM*
The Elder of Lan Family raised his sword as countless sword lights fell on the pirates. However, Suddenly, four people surrounded him as they raised their swords.
" Blood Killing Formation!"
Four beams of crimson light flashed as they shot at the elder. The elder\'s body shone as he tried to defend himself. However, suddenly, he coughed a mouthful of blood as he saw a dagger piercing her back. A fifth person made a sneak attack, stabbing his chest.
" Kheukk! You bastard!"
The aura of Harmonization Realm elder exploded as the heaven and earth energy rolled. An orb of light manifested above him as it started to scatter golden darts of light like arrows.
" Block it! Blood Killing Formation! Blood Sea Barrier!"
The pirates changed their formation as they created a blood colored barrier around them. The golden darts of light rained on the barrier as the Elder attacked them desperately.
The Lan Family\'s True Core Formation realm cultivators were almost wiped out. Only the Primordial Spirit Unification Realm cultivators and Elders fought against the pirates.
" Fuck! They knew our plans all along. Which fucking bastard betrayed us?" A guard of Lan Family shouted as he fought against the pirates.
The pirates were cunning with various vicious tricks in their sleeves. An elder gasped for air as he took out a jade talisman and crush it.
" I have already sent an emergency signal. The reinforcement will come shortly."
" Kekeke, You think we didn\'t know about that?" The pirate leader cackled as he showed a blood colored sphere in his hand. " This treasure will block all sorts of signaling talismans in this radius."
The elder of Lan family became started as he looked at his hand. The jade talisman was simply unresponsive.
" Hmph, Vile bastards! You think we can\'t deal with you?" One of the elders shouted as he took out a stack of talismans. The talismans swirled around him as his aura erupted.
" Slaughter Wind Talisman Formation!"
*BANG BANG BANG!*
There was only a single Harmonization Realm cultivator on the pirate\'s side while they were only using tricks to keep up against Lan Family. Due to that, the battle became more lengthy and bloody.

" What? There is no news?"
Lan Xiao raised his brows as he looked at the servant before him.
"Patriarch, The last report we got was that they found the mines successfully. However, after that, no shipment of ore came till now. Should we send a small team to investigate?"
" Eh? Sure, It won\'t harm much, I guess." Lan Xiao nodded. And thus, a small squad consisting five True Core Formation and two Primordial Spirit Realm along with a bunch of Violet Palace Expansion realm culitvators, started their journey to the Coral Island.
As Ming Yuexing and Long Ming were sitting in Sea Breeze Inn, a maid came and served tea to them.
" Huh? Did you order tea for us?" Ming Yuexin asked. Long Ming saw a small handkerchief under the tray as he unfolded it.
" Well, They are sending another small elite squad to Coral Island. And, I think we can eliminate them with an ambush." Long Ming grinned after he read the secret letter. " So, What do you say, Sister Ming? Shall we chip some more of their strength?"
Ming Yuexin chuckled as she held her sword. " Why not?"
.
.
.
" Huh? Senior Brother, Look at that!"
" Halt! Who is there!"
The elite squad of the Lan Family stopped in the middle of the forest when they saw a person hurriedly digging something. Many of them felt something was amiss as they landed near him.
" Wahhh! I… I didn\'t find any treasure! There is nothing here!"
A man wearing a conical mask hurriedly spoke before covering his mouth. The disciples of the Lan Family became interested when they heard that.
" Treasure?"
" Look! Senior brother! There is a faint light coming from that pit!"
" Mm, Such a magnificent radiance, it must be a powerful treasure."
The two Primordial Spirit Realm Cultivators became greedy as they walked to the pit, pushing that man aside.
" What is it?"
" Nothing. Just dug a grave for you guys." The man replied.
" Huh?!"
Before they could react, they felt the air around them turning warm.
" Scorching Summer Sword Art! Burning Sun Slash!"
Ming Yuexin appeared before them as she drew out her sword. Like a flash of sunlight, her sword left a trail of flames as she beheaded one of them.
" Let the slaughter begin!"
