In the territory governed by the Jialan Monarch, there were many meteorite mines that were under his protection. He was also responsible for excavating the cultivation resources within.
At this moment, in one of the mines, there was an army stationed outside. They surrounded the entire area, making it so tight that not even a drop of water could pass through.
In one of the passageways, Qin Wentian arrived. Other than him, there were two other immortal kings who brought him here as well as an immortal-foundation maiden.
"Qin Wentian, the entrance to the mine is right ahead. You are lacking in cultivation resources and can use this opportunity to earn more. Young miss is giving you a chance, you better cherish it well." The immortal king who brought Qin Wentian here smiled, his eyes gleaming with a deep meaning.
"In that case, please thank young miss on my behalf." Qin Wentian smiled and nodded, but a cold light flickered in his eyes. How could he not know that the immortal king had ill intentions? On the way here, he could even flee but he didn't do so. Because, he truly wanted to take a look at the meteorite mine the immortal king spoke of.
"The two of you can enter now." Not far away, another immortal king communicated with the guards here and called out to Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian and the immortal-foundation maiden then walked over with a few guards leading them towards a mountain range ahead.
Qin Wentian's immortal sense gushed forth. He felt a slight shock in his heart when he saw the guards here. There were many immortal kings here, one could see how important this mine was.
"The mine was opened last year. Hence, after you guys enter, it will only open again after nine years. At that time, if you guys are still alive, you can come out together with the people inside." The guard instructed Qin Wentian and the young woman before leading them into a cave in the mountain range. As they walked deeper, they finally arrived at a spatial gate.
"Go on in." The guard spoke. Qin Wentian and the immortal-foundation maiden entered together. In an instant, an intense spatial energy enveloped the two of them as they soared through the air. When they appeared again, they were also exiting through a spatial gate. Qin Wentian's gaze instantly froze as he stared in shock at the scene before him.
"Is this the mineral vein?" Qin Wentian looked down. It was as if he had come to another continent. It was a vast and endless land with mountains rising and falling. Moreover, there was a psychedelic atmosphere.
The woman beside him was named Yang Yun`er and her cultivation base was at the eighth-level of immortal-foundation. She stared at the gleaming eyes of Qin Wentian and involuntarily spoke, "Are you stupid? Do you really not know that Jialan Mingyue sent you here to die?"
She couldn't imagine why Qin Wentian was still so excited. Moreover, the conversation he had with the Immortal King who escorted them along the way was also very strange. He was actually very polite.
However, Qin Wentian was extraordinary in both appearance and temperament. Why did he look so stupid?
"Yun`er, it's true that I know nothing about the external world. What's going on with this meteorite mine?" Qin Wentian asked.
Yang Yun`er was dumbfounded. She stared ahead and replied, "This is the first time I came to a meteorite mine but I've long heard that in the vast Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, there are many wondrous lands that can produce cultivation resources. However, the cultivation resources in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms are limited. Hence, those empyreans would excavate the resources from the void around the immortal realms. In the surroundings of our immortal realms, other than the countless particle worlds, there would also be some wondrous lands. For example, there are stars that can produce immortal stones. On those stars, there would be unique mountain ranges that can produce all sorts of immortal stones."
"In that case, this place should be outside the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms?" Qin Wentian asked.
"We came here through a spatial gate. We should be outside the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. In the immortal realms, those major characters established their own powers, controlling incomparably powerful armies. What are they doing this for? Isn't it all for these cultivation resources? Discovering, conquering, plundering, controlling, excavating … This meteorite mine should be able to produce illusion-type immortal stones. Naturally, there might also be king-grade and emperor-grade immortal stones. As for the more valuable items, that would have to depend on luck. "
"If those major characters discovered this place, why didn't they directly move the entire mine away?" Qin Wentian didn't understand. Although immortal emperors didn't have such capabilities, he believed that the hegemonic characters of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms would definitely have such capabilities.
"Mines are born from borrowing the power of the heavens and earth. In addition, they are able to produce endless amounts of cultivation resources. The more time passes, the more precious items there would be. If they directly destroyed it and took it away, it would be a one-time use item."
"It can produce immortal stones by itself?" Qin Wentian's eyes gleamed with sharpness. No wonder the emperor city that the Jialan Monarch was in was constructed from precious resources. The people of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms were powerful, hence, they had the ability to discover and excavate cultivation resources. As for the people of the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms, they basically didn't dare to imagine that. Just this spatial gate that could traverse vast distances wasn't something an immortal emperor could create.
"Why are you still not going down?" A cold voice drifted over. Qin Wentian inclined his head, only to see a group of guards clad in armor, pointing their long spears at them. Before this, he actually didn't notice that there were actually experts guarding the airspace above the mine.
"Let's go." Yang Yun`er pulled Qin Wentian's arm and moved forward, moving towards the mine.
"Before the spatial gate opens, anyone who leaves the mine will be killed without mercy." A cold voice rang out. Yang Yun`er transmitted her voice to Qin Wentian, "Now you should understand that you are here to die, right? There are many people in the mine. There are criminals from the territories governed by the Jialan Monarch, slaves from the various clans and sects, as well as people who are at their wits' end and lack cultivation resources. These people are all criminals, for the sake of immortal stones, they would kill each other and plunder. By doing so, they would be able to obtain more than 90% of the resources. Other than these people being extremely dangerous, the mine itself can also kill people. For immortal-foundation experts like us, there's only a path of death for us."
"Have you offended Jialan Mingyue?" Qin Wentian asked.
"I'm the daughter of the previous city lord of Windthunder City. Because my father was unhappy with Jialan Mingyue who just broke through to the immortal king realm, he rebutted her and my entire family was sent to the various mines." Yang Yun`er's voice was cold to the extreme. Qin Wentian cast a deep glance at Yang Yun`er.
After that, he bitterly smiled and shook his head. Jialan Mingyue was treating him like a criminal.
"Let's hope we can walk out of here alive." Yang Yun`er sighed.
"Let me protect you." Qin Wentian smiled. Yang Yun`er started, she stared at Qin Wentian, "You, protect me?"
"Mhm." Qin Wentian nodded. Yang Yun`er smiled and walked forward, "Okay, I will wait for you to grow stronger in the future. Protect me."
"Eh …" Qin Wentian bitterly smiled and shook his head, following after her. Not long later, they saw a group of experts mining ahead, using law energy to break apart the mountain range. The foundation of this mine was extremely sturdy. Even for immortal-foundation experts, their speed of mining wouldn't be that fast.
At this moment, a gaze turned over. The eyes of that person were as sharp as knives, as a cold smile appeared on his face.
"Let's go." Yang Yun`er transmitted her voice to Qin Wentian.
"Stop there." That person coldly called out. Yang Yun`er froze, only to see that person speaking, "The two of you, come over and mine together."
"His cultivation base is higher than mine, he intentionally concealed it earlier. He's a ruthless character and might be at the immortal king realm." Yang Yun`er transmitted her voice to Qin Wentian.
"Don't worry." Qin Wentian replied. He actually really went ahead to mine, punching out with his devil fists. Not long after, he saw a sparkling and translucent illusory immortal stone.
Qin Wentian kept it and continued to mine. Yang Yun`er helplessly joined in as well. This mining lasted for several months and they obtained quite a lot of immortal stones. At this moment, an illusionary realm appeared, enveloping everyone within. Occasionally, they would see illusions.
"A king-grade immortal stone has been excavated." That fierce-looking immortal king who had been cultivating at the side suddenly opened his eyes. His immortal sense spread out, causing many illusions to appear within his immortal sense, trying to confuse them.
But very swiftly, the illusions vanished as well. Everyone had a strange look in their eyes as they stared at the immortal king.
"Who took it?" The fierce-looking immortal king stood up and asked in a Cold tone.
Everyone exchanged mutual glances. That fierce-looking immortal king swept his gaze over them as he spoke again, "Hand over all the interspatial rings."
"Senior, can you leave some for us? If we don't manage to excavate enough, we will have to continue mining for the next ten years." Someone spoke. That immortal king released a terrifying aura as his law domain transformed into a fearsome saber domain, directly slashing that immortal king into pieces.
The expressions of everyone instantly turned pale. That immortal king's eyes were as sharp as blades as he pointed to Yang Yun`er, "Little beauty, go and collect his interspatial ring."
Yang Yun`er's body trembled. That immortal king laughed uproariously when he saw the fear on her face, "Don't worry, beauty. I won't kill you. Naturally, you have to serve me well."
Yang Yun`er bit her lips, her countenance was as pale as paper. Qin Wentian spoke in a light voice, "The things you want are with me."
"Mhm?" That immortal king instantly stared at Qin Wentian as a malevolent smile appeared on his face. However, Qin Wentian's eyes abruptly changed. In an instant, a pitch-black devilish light flashed, resembling two bolts of lightning. In just an instant, that immortal king howled in pain before he screamed in agony.
"Destroy!"
A formless terrifying aura gushed forth from Qin Wentian, causing everyone to feel fear in their souls. With a thud, that immortal king collapsed to the ground. There wasn't even a single wound on his body.
Everyone stared at Qin Wentian as shock appeared on their faces. Under their gazes, Qin Wentian walked up and took the interspatial ring from the young man. He glanced at the items inside and noticed that there were quite a few immortal stones inside. But to him, it was still far from enough.
"Yun`er, I might need to enter closed-door seclusion for a period of time. I'll have some time to search for more immortal stones. Do you want to come with me?" Qin Wentian stared at Yang Yun`er who was still in a daze. Although he could still kill immortal kings by relying on his soul energy, he still felt extremely unhappy. He was preparing to recover his cultivation base to the immortal king realm before exiting this place. If he encountered any trouble, he would be able to deal with it!
