The ancient temple's soul mine was a rather famous soul mine in the Ghost World. According to legends, it was the place where the precelestial ghost war occurred. Countless powerful Ghost Emperors had fallen there, and their corpses had transformed into this place.
The legends were unverifiable, but the ancient temple's souls were indeed constantly sending soul stones to Initial River City. Moreover, the quality was extremely high.
For a long time, the Zhao, Wang, Zhang, and Sun families only held a very small share of the mine. Moreover, they were engaged in the lowest level of mining. The main shares and profits were taken away by the great powers behind the ancient mine.
When Yang Qingxuan flew above the ancient mine, he could feel the massive soul force field below. After cultivating the Five Spirits Ghost Art, his ability to absorb and sense ghost energy had far surpassed before.
Wu Yun said, "Let's go down. I'll find a tunnel to enter."
The ancient temple's soul mine had been mined for countless years. There were all sorts of tunnels crisscrossing each other, forming an extremely complex state. Moreover, most of the old mines had already been abandoned.
Now, the Zhao, Wang, Sun, and Zhang families' mining was mainly concentrated in a bird's nest shaped ravine far away from Big Fist City.
Yang Qingxuan and Wu Yun flew above the mine for a long time before finding a relatively old tunnel to enter.
If a normal person entered, they would definitely get lost. But for Ghost Emperors like them, as long as they spread out their divine sense, they could quickly sense all the nearby tunnels. It was much easier to find the right path.
Yang Qingxuan was extremely shocked. He didn't know how long this mine was, but even his divine sense couldn't see it all. Moreover, it was filled with powerful ghost energy. From time to time, it would form waves that would interfere with his divine sense.
In his perception, he could sense that the Zhao, Wang, Sun, and Zhang families' miners were diligently moving bricks. The mountain range's tunnels weren't completely peaceful. From time to time, ghosts would condense and scurry about.
Some ghosts would find an exit and leave. Some would stay inside and cultivate. Some would swallow each other to form higher level ghosts.
Only then did Yang Qingxuan understand why some of these absentee workers seemed to be overseers, but all of them had a World King level cultivation. They sat there cultivating and didn't participate in mining or management. It seemed that they were responsible for the safety of the absentee workers.
Yang Qingxuan sighed in his heart, "Nothing is easy. Mining in the Ghost Realm is also a very risky job."
In his perception, there were also some ghosts with lower cultivation bases digging in some abandoned mines. There were quite a number of them, and they were all ghostly cultivators who came in to mine without permission. In other words, they were the mine thieves.
After all, the ancient mine was just too big. The Zhao, Wang, Sun, and Zhang families couldn't manage it at all. As long as they didn't mine new ores, they would be fine. After all, the risk of mining an ancient mine was extremely high. It was easy to encounter ghosts that were born on their own, and they weren't weak either. Many mine thieves died just like that, directly becoming a part of the mine.
Yang Qingxuan felt the dense pressure of the Ghost Qi, which was much stronger than the outside. He immediately activated the Five Spirits Ghost Art, absorbing the Ghost Qi here and transforming it into pure energy to repair his body.
His body contained the power of the Great Dao as well as all sorts of strange energies. Even if he only used the Formless Tathagata Original Wish Sutra to absorb the Ghost Qi, he could still transform it into Prajna energy or other strengths that could be absorbed by his body or sunk into his dantian to stabilize his boundary.
However, this was an additional conversion process that slowed down the efficiency by a great deal. Moreover, the Ghost Qi greatly conflicted with Yang Qingxuan's cultivation method, causing his efficiency to be further dragged down.
Afterwards, Yang Qingxuan discovered that his body didn't need to be converted into energy and could be directly nourished and repaired by the Ghost Qi. This discovery left him overjoyed. Thus, he tried to absorb the Ghost Qi of the world into his body. As he thought, his body was cleanly absorbed by it and even repaired to a certain extent.
At that time, Yang Qingxuan was considering learning a ghost cultivation method and he just happened to encounter the Five Spirits Ghost Art. This cultivation method wasn't top grade but it was easy to learn. Moreover, it could be cultivated through the power of the five elements. To Yang Qingxuan, this was no different from a tailor-made cultivation method.
"What are you doing?"
Wu Yun saw him forming seals with both hands and the Ghost Qi flowing around him. He thought that he was using some secret technique to investigate this soul mine.
However, when he found out that he was only cultivating, his face fell. He said, "Brother Qingxuan, can you be more serious? We are here to investigate the abnormality of this place. "
Yang Qingxuan said, "I think it's quite normal. There are probably tens of thousands of ghosts in this mine. These ghosts also need to absorb energy. Everyone is cultivating together, so the mine's energy will naturally decrease. In addition, new ghosts are constantly being born. Who knows, there might even be a Seven Stars Ghost Emperor. How much energy would that absorb? Therefore, it's very normal for the mine to dry up. "
Wu Yun was shocked. He said, "How could there be a Seven Stars Ghost Emperor? Don't scare me! I've never heard of a Seven Stars Ghost Emperor being born directly. They all cultivated from ordinary ghosts. However, after hearing what you said, it makes sense. Let's look around again. "
Yang Qingxuan was extremely unwilling. However, when he thought about how he wasn't in a hurry to cultivate, and that he still had something to ask of Wu Yun, he followed.
The two of them flew forward in the mine tunnel, spreading their Divine Sense to the places that were not covered. Wu Yun's idea was very simple. They would use their Divine Sense to scan the entire mine tunnel and understand the general situation. Then, they could return and report back.
Both of their Divine Senses were extremely wide. Wu Yun seemed to have specially cultivated some kind of secret technique to increase his Divine Sense. The range of his Divine Sense was so wide that it was almost not below Yang Qingxuan's. Of course, because this was the Ghost Realm, Yang Qingxuan's Divine Sense was suppressed to a certain extent.
Suddenly, the two of them stopped at the same time and looked at a mine tunnel in surprise.
There were countless intersections in the mine tunnel. It was impossible to distinguish them with the naked eye. However, following the direction of their gaze, there was an extremely strong energy wall at the end of the tunnel. It was like a barrier that blocked their Divine Sense.
Yang Qingxuan said, "Is it a new mine?"
Wu Yun shook his head. "I don't know. The energy is very strong. Maybe it's a new mine. Let's go and take a look."
The two of them entered the mine tunnel one after another and headed in that direction.
This mine had existed for an unknown number of years. There were a large number of ghosts inside. When the two of them rushed in, they immediately caused a lot of screams. Countless ghosts rushed out from the mine walls and attacked fiercely.
Wu Yun held a grey ruler in his hand. There were a few deep blood marks on it. When he waved it, a large number of ghost talismans appeared and directly scattered the ghosts.
Yang Qingxuan was even simpler. He used the Six Illusory Flames to form a circle of red light that covered his body. When those ghosts touched it, they immediately turned into smoke. They were so scared that they screamed and ran away. How would they dare to come close?
Yang Fire and Yang Thunder had a huge amount of Qi. It was the nemesis of ghosts, not to mention the Six Illusory Flames. When it was used, even Wu Yun's face changed. He was terrified and said with a trembling voice, "Brother Qingxuan, is this the Origin Flame? And it doesn't seem to be the first gear, right? "
Yang Qingxuan said, "Yes, fourth gear."
"Ah!" Wu Yun was so scared that his face turned pale. He screamed and quickly dodged, keeping a large distance from Yang Qingxuan.
