"Keep these Spirit Stones. Once you're done with your harvesting mission, you can leave!" Lin Yi took out 15,000 Spirit Stones and handed them to Bing Wuqing so that she could activate the Void Bag's teleportation ability and leave this place first.
Bing Wuqing had long been immune to Lin Yi's miraculous abilities. She didn't even wonder why he took out so many Spirit Stones and immediately kept them.
"Thank you, Boss, but I don't want to leave yet. Those two Soul Eating Beasts dared to ambush me. I can't just leave with my tail between my legs." Bing Wuqing kept the glowing Void Bag, but she had no intention of leaving.
Lin Yi didn't mind. He nodded slightly and said, "That's fine. You're strong enough to protect yourself. Let's wait and see. If necessary, use the Void Bag to leave this place."
"Yes, Boss Lin Yi!" Bing Wuqing agreed and didn't say anything else.
It was basically impossible to count on Bing Wuqing to take the initiative to chat with others. Lin Yi didn't have any topics to talk about either, so the two of them moved in silence.
Gradually, the spirit jade vein's reserves became more abundant. There were almost no wasted veins left, and there were poor veins everywhere. Rich veins could also be seen from time to time, and the frequency of attacks from the Spirit Devouring Beasts also gradually increased.
Another five days passed. During this period, Lin Yi and Bing Wuqing encountered more than 30 surprise attacks from Soul Eating Beasts. Fortunately, they were all daunting but unharmed. However, the other members of the Ten Young Ones weren't so lucky. At least one corpse appeared from the Everyday and Everyday Sect, Evil Warding Sect, and so on.
This time, what appeared in front of Lin Yi was the corpse of a Golden Core from the Okuda family. Fortunately, there didn't seem to be any Nascent Soul experts who had fallen so far. However, that didn't rule out the possibility that they were already dead but hadn't been discovered by Lin Yi.
"Wuqing, it seems like there are more than two Soul Eating Beasts!" Lin Yi looked at the Golden Core corpse and frowned deeply.
Just now, Lin Yi and Bing Wuqing had just encountered a wave of attacks, and when they turned around, they discovered this corpse. Judging from the traces and time, it shouldn't be the two Soul Eating Beasts that had attacked Lin Yi.
Bing Wuqing nodded slightly and said, "Indeed, the claw marks on this carcass are thicker and more solid than those of the previous two Soul Devouring Beasts. If I'm not wrong, this Soul Devouring Beast's abilities should be above those of the previous two!"
Lin Yi had also noticed this. After so many battles, he had learned that Spirit Eating Beasts weren't completely immune to Divine Sense attacks. As long as he could exert enough destructive power in an instant, he would be able to break through the Spirit Eating Beast's external defenses. For example, his Divine Sense Pill Flame vortex was extremely destructive, but the Soul Reaping Hand was far less lethal in comparison.
Because of this, Lin Yi wasn't too worried about the appearance of new Spirit-Eating Beasts. His only question was how many Spirit-Eating Beasts were there in the Spirit Jade Immortal Vein?
"Wuqing, you mentioned Spirit-Eating Beasts before, so you seem to know a little about them. Why don't you tell me about them?" Bing Wuqing didn't continue talking about Spirit-Eating Beasts before, so Lin Yi didn't ask too much. But now that the situation had changed, it was more appropriate to ask.
Bing Wuqing nodded and said, "Okay, I thought you weren't interested, so I didn't ask."
Lin Yi couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this. It really took a little patience to communicate with an ice cube like this!
"Actually, I don't know much about Spirit-Eating Beasts. I've only heard a little about them. These creatures are cruel and vengeful, which is obvious from the way they chased after us. Other than that, Spirit-Eating Beasts all live in families, so if a Spirit-Eating Beast appears alone, there will definitely be other Spirit-Eating Beasts nearby. Many people have overlooked this and been killed by Spirit-Eating Beasts." Lin Yi basically knew everything that Bing Wuqing said, so there wasn't anything special about it.
But hearing this again helped Lin Yi sort out his thoughts. For example, this Golden Core corpse in front of him might not have been killed by one Spirit-Eating Beast, but at least two! And they were even more powerful than the two Spirit-Eating Beasts that Lin Yi and the others had encountered!
"What the hell, Wuqing, we might have entered the lair of Spirit-Eating Beasts!" Lin Yi chuckled and said casually. Then, he began to condense his vital energy and two kinds of alchemy fires into a bomb.
At this time, if they were really besieged by more than four Spirit-Eating Beasts, Lin Yi wasn't sure if he and Bing Wuqing would be able to hold on. It was better to take advantage of the time they had and quickly prepare their trump cards.
"Big Boss Lin Yi, I heard that the lair of Spirit-Eating Beasts is usually located in the most essence of a spirit jade mine. Moreover, Spirit-Eating Beasts have a habit of collecting treasures. The best things on the bodies of those who are killed will be taken by the Spirit-Eating Beasts as spoils of war. If we really find the lair of the Spirit-Eating Beasts, it might not be a bad thing." Bing Wuqing didn't look worried at all. Firstly, she was confident in her own strength. Secondly, she was even more confident in Lin Yi's strength!
With this reason, even Lin Yi probably wouldn't have anything to say …
"Before you think about victory, think about defeat. Before we find the lair of the Spirit-Eating Beasts, we'd better be prepared to be besieged. Wuqing, listen carefully. If we really are besieged by the Spirit-Eating Beasts and your Heartless Ice Aura can't hold on, you must teleport out immediately. Otherwise, you'll drag me down, understand?" Lin Yi spoke very seriously, afraid that Bing Wuqing wouldn't agree.
Unexpectedly, Bing Wuqing nodded readily and said, "Yes, Big Boss Lin Yi. I'll definitely do as you say!"
Actually, if Lin Yi had insisted a little more five days ago, Bing Wuqing would definitely have left immediately. After all, Bing Wuqing would definitely listen to Lin Yi's words. It was precisely because Lin Yi didn't seem to mind that Bing Wuqing suggested to stay behind and work together with Lin Yi.
Since Bing Wuqing had agreed, Lin Yi didn't say anything else. As long as Bing Wuqing left, he could release the super alchemy fire bombs he had prepared without restraint. He wouldn't have to worry about accidentally injuring Bing Wuqing.
"Let's go. I think we're almost at the lair of the Spirit-Eating Beasts!" Lin Yi continued to condense super alchemy fire bombs in his hands. He gestured for Bing Wuqing to follow him and continue forward.
More than eight days had passed since they started mining. Those who were still alive should have mined quite a lot of spirit jade. Perhaps they had all left the Spirit Jade Celestial Vein. Hence, the frequency of rich veins appearing became higher and higher. However, not a single person could be seen.
