A door opened in the five-colored light barrier that enveloped the abyss.
The flying ship passed through the door, entered the abyss, and slowly flew down.
Ji Tianxing followed closely behind the flying ship and silently entered the abyss.
While diving, he silently observed the terrain of the abyss.
The abyss was like a gourd. The entrance was only a thousand miles wide, and it became wider as he went down.
In the dark abyss, there were steep glaciers all around. Ordinary people couldn't climb it at all.
Soon, the flying ship flew down for twenty miles and landed on a vast open space.
This open space was like a wide platform formed by ice that hadn't melted for ten thousand years. It was at least a thousand miles wide.
Hundreds of palaces and residences made of ice crystals sat on this platform.
Ji Tianxing knew at a glance that those were the residences of the miners and Divine Servants.
In the centermost area, there was a huge and majestic ice castle that looked especially sacred and solemn.
The Cold Ice Martial Lord who guarded the Divine Mine lived in that castle.
Ji Tianxing hid in the dark night sky and silently observed for a while. He found some clues.
That ice castle was the core of the entire area.
There were a total of three hundred and sixty ice palaces around it. They were arranged according to the Celestial Constellation's position and formed an invisible array.
If there was an invasion, it would be very difficult for them to break through those hundreds of palaces, let alone enter the ice castle.
Just as Ji Tianxing was thinking silently, the flying ship landed on the huge square outside the palaces.
There were hundreds of ice crystal statues around the square. They were lifelike and looked very majestic.
After the flying ship landed, Lin Daoyi walked out first.
Immediately after, the forty-nine young geniuses walked out of the flying ship and stood on the square.
Everyone had just left the flying ship and came to the dark and cold abyss for the first time. They couldn't help but shiver as they looked around with solemn expressions.
The unfamiliar Divine Mine and the harsh environment made everyone's mood heavy. The atmosphere was rather gloomy.
At this moment, five dazzling streams of light flew out from the ice castle in the distance.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
After a short while, the five streams of light came to the square and landed beside Lin Daoyi.
When the light faded, five figures of different heights appeared.
The leader was a thin old man in a blue robe with white hair and a beard.
This person's skin was dark and his eyes were bright. His entire body emitted a powerful and fierce aura.
Following behind the blue-robed old man were four middle-aged men in golden armor with dignified auras.
Lin Daoyi stood in front of the blue-robed old man and cupped his hands respectfully, "Divine Envoy Lin Daoyi of Mount God Bestowment greets Steward Du!"
The blue-robed old man called Manager Du was the trusted aide of the Cold Ice Martial Lord, his most valued right-hand man.
He was in charge of all the affairs of the entire divine mine. He had the power to decide the life and death of the miners and supervisors. He truly had a high status and great authority.
He calmly looked at Lin Daoyi and nodded slightly. "Divine Envoy Lin, you have escorted the Divine Servants all the way here. You must be tired from the journey. You must have worked hard!"
"Manager Du, you're too polite. This is my duty." Lin Daoyi exchanged pleasantries with him and said a few words.
Then, Lin Daoyi greeted the four golden-armored men and bowed to each other.
The four golden-armored men were all in the third or fourth level of the Tribulation Realm. They were the four commanders of the northern mining area.
After exchanging a few words, Manager Du ordered the four commanders, "The four of you, bring the Divine Servants sent by Divine Envoy Lin to the northern district and settle them down.
Let them have a good night's rest. We'll start work tomorrow. "
"Understood!" The four commanders cupped their hands and accepted the order.
Then, they brought the forty-nine geniuses and left the square. They flew to the northern area of the palace complex and stayed in one of the palaces.
In the huge square, only Lin Daoyi and Manager Du were left.
The two of them had known each other for many years. In the past, when Lin Daoyi escorted the Divine Servants, it was Manager Du who handed them over.
The two of them walked side by side to the edge of the square. Under their feet was the bottomless abyss.
Lin Daoyi said in a heavy tone, "Manager Du, is this matter so urgent? The Divine Servants have just arrived and we're going to start work in the mining area tomorrow? "
Manager Du nodded slightly and looked at the night sky with cold eyes. He said, "After the incident in the northern mining area, there are only a dozen supervisors and thousands of miners left.
Now that everyone is in a panic, the northern mining area can no longer operate normally, causing the supply of Spirit Stones and various gems to sharply decrease.
We can't delay any longer. These Divine Servants have to be sent to the mining area tomorrow!
Otherwise, if the Divine Mine doesn't hand over the supplied Spirit Stones, the Divine Nation will soon discover the problem. "
Hearing this, Lin Daoyi's body trembled and his eyes revealed a look of surprise.
"Manager Du, you mean … Cold Ice Martial Monarch hasn't reported this matter to the Divine Nation?"
Manager Du turned his head and glanced at him. With an indifferent expression, he said, "Divine Envoy Lin, Cold Ice Martial Monarch is highly regarded by the Divine Master. He has guarded the Glacier Divine Mine for a thousand years.
During this period, there have never been any major problems or twists and turns in the Divine Mine.
Now, such a thing has happened in the Divine Mine.
Before the truth of the matter is investigated, do you think it can be reported to the Divine Nation?
If the Divine Master knows the news, what will he think? "
At this point, Manager Du paused for a moment.
He looked gloomily at the cliff below and sneered bitterly, "The Divine Master will definitely be very disappointed. He will even feel that Cold Ice Martial Monarch can't even handle such a small matter!
If we report it to the Divine Nation without investigating it clearly, do we have to wait for him to personally investigate?
At that time, not only will Cold Ice Martial Monarch be punished, we, as servants, will also be dismissed and investigated! "
Manager Du's words were not alarmist. The previous Martial Monarch who guarded the Divine Mine was dismissed like this.
Lin Daoyi immediately fell silent and his expression was somewhat ugly.
He had always thought that Cold Ice Martial Monarch would definitely report the tragedy that happened in the Divine Mine to the Divine Nation.
Divine Lord Taihao also knew about this matter. That was why he sent an order to God Bestowment Mountain to select a group of Divine Servants in advance and send them to the Divine Mine to fill the vacancy.
However, this was not the case.
Until today, Cold Ice Martial Monarch still concealed this tragedy and did not report it.
Lin Daoyi recalled what the Great Protector said before and remembered that the Great Protector only said that he communicated with Cold Ice Martial Monarch in a secret letter and did not mention the Divine Lord's order.
Thinking of this, Lin Daoyi's mood became even more complicated.
"Manager Du, what is the truth of the tragedy? Have you found any clues or leads? "
Manager Du did not speak and only shook his head.
Lin Daoyi was even more worried. He frowned and asked, "Since the matter has not been investigated clearly, then send the Divine Servants to the mine a few days later!
If we send them to the Northern Mine tomorrow, wouldn't we be sending them to their deaths? "
Manager Du said coldly, "Divine Envoy Lin, our mission is only to maintain the operation of the Divine Mine. It can continuously produce Spirit Stones and gems to supply the various forbidden areas and Divine Nations.
As for the life and death of those Divine Servants, it is not within our consideration.
