From one emergency after another, Song Jixing became increasingly certain that this demonic cultivator wanted to recover his cultivation through nefarious means.

Previously it was a tidal wave, now it was a mine accident. There was deliberation as well as coincidence, both owing to fate.

Song Jixing stuffed the doll into his pocket and rode his flying sword back with Wu Xiao.

When they returned, the large spotlights around the gold mine were all turned on.

About half of the trenches that Song Jixing had slashed open had collapsed from the later tremors, with dirt and snow filling the crevices, and even toppling a few nearby houses.

The rescue scene appeared rather grim.

After dismounting his sword, Song Jixing told Wu Xiao, "The person escaped, I let him run."

As for the doll, Song Jixing didn't plan to explain it to Wu Xiao and the others, even if he gave it to them, they wouldn't be able to use it.

But she would take it back and show it to the elders of her sect.

Wu Xiao nodded, not taking the matter to heart. Although he didn't understand cultivation much, the fact that the person fled upon seeing Song Jixing proved that she was more formidable.

"Thank you for your efforts, I'm glad you're safe. Everything else is minor." As long as Song Jixing was safe, anything could be discussed.

The doll's spell was broken, and the array beneath was also disrupted.

Song Jixing sent his spiritual sense down and, with the intent of helping others, had Wu Xiao take out another map and pen to re-mark the number of trapped personnel, expressing some regret as he circled certain areas, "These people are injured, we need to rescue them quickly."

After speaking, Song Jixing slashed several more times, like a child haphazardly cutting a cake, slicing parts of the mine into pieces.

Wu Xiao looked at the map and those trenches, all marked by Song Jixing as having survivors, and quickly summoned rescue personnel to go down and save them.

After that, Song Jixing didn't idle, continuing down to bring Wen Renhe and Huo Ling'er out, while temporarily sealing the spiritual veins connecting the underground portion to the surface.

The growing spiritual veins were slightly unstable, who knows if the mine would collapse again.

When the group emerged from underground, a massive crane was operating on the mountaintop, lowering a rope to pull out dozens of trapped personnel.

Some were injured, with medical staff urgently checking their condition, while others were lively, expressing gratitude for surviving the ordeal.

Perhaps because the spotlights didn't shine on the hole where Song Jixing and the others entered and exited, combined with the surrounding darkness, no one noticed their appearance.

Everyone's attention was focused on the map held by the rescue team, and the constantly operating crane, its swaying steel cable entering and exiting the crevice each time, bringing back a few miners.

Wu Xiao stood at the dark pit entrance, watching something fly out from within, then saw the surrounding sand and soil quickly flow into the deep pit, realizing Song Jixing had probably come out.

Just as he was about to look for Song Jixing's figure in the darkness, he found his phone vibrating in his pocket.

It was a message from Song Jixing through the cultivation app.
