I fly with a sword in the magic academy

"There must be spiritual stones in this place, but it's a pity that our strength cannot break through the hard black granite outside." The old man in sixties with white beard and hair sighed.

"Sigh, everything that can be mined in this area has basically been mined. Even if there are indeed spiritual stones, there probably won't be many."

"Look somewhere else."

More than a dozen people rode camels into the distance.

After they were completely gone, Shi Daohan also came to the stone mountain and observed it carefully. Her attainments in Feng Shui could be said to be at the master level, but she did not see that there was any spirit in this stone mountain. Any characteristics and information about the stone.

Finally, she flicked her fingers and fired dozens of sword rays, directly breaking open the stone mountain. The earth and rocks flew away, and a spiritual vein was really exposed.

She started digging and got fifteen kilograms of spiritual stones.

"Unexpectedly, even I can't see that there is a small spiritual vein here, but the old man can see it."

Shi Daohan was quite surprised. He felt that these local aborigines who had lived on this land for generations must have mastered indigenous methods in the field of searching for spiritual veins that outsiders did not know.

At this moment, dust was flying in the distance, and the group of people walked back after understanding the noise.

Everyone looked shocked when they saw that the entire stone mountain was broken open, and a girl in white clothes who looked to be only about sixteen or seventeen years old was standing there.

"This fairy is so polite." The leading old village chief jumped off the camel and gave Shi Daohan a big gift.

Seeing this, the other middle-aged men also got off their camels and saluted Shi Daohan respectfully.

"It doesn't have to be like this." Shi Daohan raised his hand and used an invisible palm force to support those people.

A man of about eighteen years old was the most clever. He immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed and shouted: "Please help me, fairy, we really have no way to survive."

Others also reacted and knelt down to Shi Daohan, saying: "The bandit leader in Luhe Village wants us to hand over ten kilograms of spiritual stones within three days. If we fail to hand over ten kilograms of spiritual stones, we will be killed." We are a whole village of young and old.

But the surrounding area has been mined for a long time. Where can we find ten kilograms of spiritual stones? Please have mercy on us, fairy, and save the lives of all our villagers! "

A boy of about fourteen years old, even though his forehead was bleeding, he still kept kowtowing hard. He cried and begged to Shi Daohan: "My sister has been kidnapped by those bandits. Please show mercy to the fairy." Heart, save my sister, save us!”

The old village chief also knelt down, kowtowed and said helplessly: "Those beasts threatened to kill all the men in our village if they couldn't hand over ten kilograms of spiritual stones within three days. We are really at our wits end..."

Shi Daohan looked at them. She didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble to herself, but her current state of mind couldn't treat them indifferently.

"Well, if it's a group of people who are difficult to deal with, it's not too late to choose to protect yourself." Shi Daohan thought to himself, and then used a force of his palm to lift up the people kneeling on the ground, and came there In front of the old village chief, he said: "Tell me, what kind of people are they?"

"A group of bandits who dominate the mountain and do all kinds of evil!"

"They don't have the strength and courage of the Nine Thieves. They only bully the weak. They are worse than animals!"

A group of people talked and explained the whole story.

That group of bandits came to Luhe Village three years ago and killed everyone in that village. After that, they used Luhe Village as their base camp and oppressed several surrounding villages. They often drew their swords to kill people and committed all kinds of evil.

"There are monks in the Golden Core realm among those bandits. The strongest ones in our Heihe Village are just building foundations. There is no way we can compete with them."

"Just half a month ago, these beasts came to our village and insulted my daughter in front of the whole village!" A middle-aged man clenched his fists and his eyes rolled when he mentioned what happened that day. The middle was covered with bloodshot eyes.

As a father, watching his daughter being bullied and abused, but unable to do anything, is the most devastating and despairing thing.

"Where is your village? I'll go back with you first." Shi Daohan said.

"Thank you, Fairy!" A group of people were extremely excited and bowed their thanks again.

"You don't have to do this." Shi Daohan returned to the village with them.

Along the way, she humbly asked the old village chief for advice, asking him how he could tell that there was a spiritual vein in the stone mountain just now.

"The whole rocky mountain is like a half-held palm, and the sun was in the east direction at that time..." The old village chief mentioned many features, but Shi Daohan only found them novel.

Because what the other party said has deviated from the corner of Feng Shui, but it is indeed useful. This is the experience accumulated by the natives of Huangzhou from generation to generation.

"It's a pity that from the things passed down by our ancestors, I have only learned a little bit at this age when half of my body is buried in the ground." The old village chief shook his head and sighed.

"The ancestor of the old village chief is the famous Xunlong Celestial Master!" A young man said with a proud look on his face.

"What? Really?!" Shi Daohan was surprised.

Xunlong Celestial Master, a master in the field of Feng Shui. This seemingly ordinary old man in his sixties is actually a descendant of Xunlong Celestial Master?

"It turns out that he is a descendant of Heavenly Master Xunlong, but I am disrespectful." Shi Daohan quickly bowed his hands and bowed to the old man.

The old village chief waved his hand and said, "This has already happened in the past."

According to him, if Master Xunlong is the first generation ancestor, he has been here for forty generations.

The lifespan of a monk can be at least two to three hundred years, which is indeed a long time ago.

"It can be said that the "Xunlong Sutra" has been lost. It is because we, the descendants, failed to live up to the expectations and failed to maintain the inheritance left by our ancestors." The old village chief sighed.

"Old man, I would like to ask, I heard that Master Xunlong generally doesn't have any fate in his old age. I wonder if this is the case?" Shi Daohan asked.

"It's easy to make money under the ancestors, but one day they will end up with their lives." The old village chief just said this and said nothing more.

Shi Daohan couldn't ask too much. After all, this was an internal family matter, and she, an outsider, had no right to interfere too much.

At this moment, the horizon ahead was filled with dust and sand, and dozens of riders were approaching them at great speed.

"No, it's a bandit!" The old village chief changed his color.

The mounts of these bandits were all extraordinary. They ran faster than flying. They came close at once and surrounded Shi Daohan and his group.

A dark-skinned middle-aged man shouted: "Hand over all the spirit stones on your body, or I will kill you here!"

This is the barren state. In broad daylight, bandits and robbers are running rampant, killing people and stealing goods at every turn.

"Sir, we did not find a spiritual stone today." A young man following the old village chief raised his hand and said with a smile.

"Stop talking nonsense to me and hand over the spirit stone or something! Grandpa doesn't have much patience with this big knife in his hand!" The middle-aged man with dark skin and carrying the big knife shouted.

"Sir, we really have nothing to gain today. If you don't believe me, just search me." The old village chief said with a helpless expression.

"Self-search?" All the bandits' eyes fell on Shi Daohan, their eyes fiery.

"Young lady, you're quite pretty. Come on, let me examine her carefully."

"I haven't met such a beautiful woman for a long time. Hey, brothers, we are in for a treat today."

Listening to the foul language spoken by these bandits, the old village chief and the young men in Heihe Village changed their minds.

"My lords, please do me a favor..."

The old village chief was interrupted as soon as he started speaking.

"Get out of here, old man! We'll deal with you after our brothers have checked this little lady's body!"

Shi Daohan patted the old village chief on the shoulder and said, "Take everyone to the front to wait for me."

After saying that, she summoned a burst of magic power and teleported the old village chief and others along with the camel a hundred miles away.

After that, she turned to look at the black-faced bandit, and grabbed him from under the beast with one hand. Her five fingers were like iron hooks, almost piercing through the other person's throat and neck.

"Is it you, you bastard, who said you wanted to search me and check my body?" Shi Daohan had a cold smile on his face, and his fingers slowly tightened, making the black-faced bandit feel like he was about to suffocate. His face was so red that he couldn't make a sound.

She didn't kill the other party directly, she still had many questions to ask.

But seeing that their leaders had been captured, the remaining bandits immediately realized that the girl in front of them was a powerful monk. Without any pause, they turned the beasts around and fled around.

"Did I say you can leave?" Shi Daohan pointed out several sword lights and pierced the heads of the eight people one after another.

The eight bandits couldn't even hum. They fell down from the beast and never got up again.

These bandits are just monks in the foundation-building realm, and they are vulnerable to Shi Daohan.

The bandit who was being choked looked pale and knew that he kicked the iron plate by mistake this time.

Shi Daohan found two kilograms of spiritual stones on the bandit's body. He couldn't help but frown slightly and said, "You have the nerve to become a bandit with just such a small amount of spiritual stones?"

Half a quarter of an hour later, Shi Daohan dragged the corpses of several alien beasts and caught up with everyone in Heihe Village. More than a dozen young adults were very jealous. The flesh and blood of such alien beasts was a great tonic.

"If this kind of strange beast is brought back to the village and used as a mount for you, it will be too conspicuous, and I am afraid it will cause you inconvenience, so I simply slaughtered them all, and everyone can roast them and eat them." Shi Daohan took the pieces of these strange beasts and The body was handed over to the young adults, and then the old village chief was asked.

"There should be many sects and sects in Huangzhou, right? Why don't any of them stand up to suppress the bandits?"

Shi Daohan couldn't understand that if all the sects and sects stood up to suppress the bandits, not only could Huangzhou be completely pacified, at least it wouldn't be so chaotic.

"It's useless. Why do you think those bandits and robbers are so rampant and lawless? They are all supported by a sect behind them."

"If we dig deeper, there must be shadows of those transcendent powerful forces and aristocratic families behind it."

"I once heard someone say that one of the nine great thieves was once supported by the imperial dynasty, but later he abandoned the dynasty because of his growing power."

After hearing this, Shi Daohan also gained a better understanding of Huangzhou. The main reason why this land is so chaotic is because of the overt and covert struggles of various transcendental forces.

They returned to the village before sunset. The dozens of families living there only had a total of two or three hundred people, so they were not very big.

Due to the living environment, the folk customs here are very tough. Regardless of whether they are old or young, women or children, they basically have their weapons close to their bodies and are ready to fight at any time, with murderous intent in their eyes.

This kind of scene has never been seen by Shi Daohan in other states. It is really powerful.

"It's the village chief and the others who are back." After seeing the faces of the visitors clearly, the villagers breathed a sigh of relief.

"Alas, the bandit from Luhe Village came again today. He said that if he fails to hand over the spirit stone the day after tomorrow, he will directly massacre our entire village."

The villagers all looked sad and sighed.

"The other teams that went out also didn't gain anything."

"The area around here has basically been mined. In just three days, where can we go to find ten kilograms of spiritual stones for them?"

In the world of spiritual practice, ten kilograms of spiritual stones may not be a big deal to most people. Even when Shi Daohan was refining elixirs and weapons in Shushan, he could throw hundreds of kilograms of spiritual stones with just a wave of his hand.

But in Huangzhou, a land rich in spiritual stones, ten kilograms of spiritual stones are enough for ordinary monks to weigh them down. How ironic?

Shi Daohan settled down in this village. The residence arranged for her by the old village chief was very clean and had obviously been carefully tidied up.

That night, the villagers slaughtered the carcass of a strange beast, and a group of people sat in front of a campfire, eating barbecue and drinking the unique liquor of Huangzhou from a large bowl.

Shi Daohan killed all the mounts of the bandits today and couldn't eat them all in one day. However, because there was a storage ring to store them, he didn't have to worry about them spoiling and smelling.

That very night, Shi Daohan found three bandit strongholds based on the locations provided to her by the black-faced bandit during the day, and killed them all in one go.

But the result was a big disappointment to her. The bandit was not rich either. After setting up three strongholds, the final harvest was less than ten kilograms of spiritual stones.

"It's hard to even make an elixir. It seems we can't count on this little bandit. We have to find a more powerful bandit to do the surgery." Shi Daohan said to himself.

Now she began to miss the spiritual stone mining area in Wuyang Mountain outside the ancient fairyland, and she regretted not fishing for more.

Because she was nervous at that time, she just collected more than a hundred kilograms of low-grade spiritual stones and thought about running away quickly, without thinking of taking advantage of the chaos to get some high-grade spiritual stones.

She is very short of spiritual stones now. Many things such as refining elixirs, drawing talismans, and forging weapons require a large amount of spiritual stones. The few low-grade spiritual stones she got from the Wuyang Mountain spiritual stone mining area are not enough.

When returning to Heihe Village, Shi Daohan noticed a large mountain, which was more than thousands of meters high by visual inspection. It was empty within a hundred miles, and there was no mountain above the peak.
