"Is this really the … the Immortal Realm's secret mine? The immortal crystal mountain really exists?! "
The eyes of the blue-robed cultivator from the Solitary Qi Sect lit up. In fact, he was not the only one. Many cultivators' eyes lit up at this moment, unable to suppress the joy in their eyes.
The immortal crystal mountain was the most mysterious legendary area in the Immortal Realm. Being able to enter it was perhaps the greatest blessing in the Immortal Realm!
"What are you guys so happy for …"
Seeing the unconcealable excitement on the faces of some cultivators, the green-robed elder slowly shook his head, a trace of sadness flashing in his eyes. "This is indeed the Immortal Realm's secret mine. You have entered the legendary immortal crystal mountain. However, since you have all heard of this place, you should also know that no one who enters here has been able to leave alive."
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of all the cultivators suddenly darkened.
The legend of the immortal crystal mountain was indeed moving, but the accompanying rumors of death were even more chilling.
They were all trapped laborers, and their ability to resist danger was at its weakest at this time.
Mining in the immortal crystal mountain that was full of danger and surrounded by death, their lives were already hanging by a thread!
Great opportunities were always accompanied by great dangers. This was an irrefutable ancient principle.
This great opportunity was basically destined to have little to do with their group of laborers.
The Nine Heavens Formation Breaking Team had been plotting all this time. No matter how they thought about it, there was no way they would let these laborers have any chance of getting a share of the profits!
Moreover, the Nine Heavens had been operating for a long time and had not obtained the ultimate benefits. There was even less of a chance for others to get a share.
The more the cultivators thought about it, the more miserable they became.
Every bit of the resources in the immortal crystal mountain was hard to come by. How could they have a chance?
The green-robed elder's reminder was like a basin of cold water poured over their heads, extinguishing the joy in the eyes of the cultivators. They could not help but turn from joy to sorrow, and all of them hung their heads dejectedly.
As the surrounding cultivators discussed and sighed, unable to calm down, Chu Chen silently sat cross-legged on the ground, as if he was alone in another time and space.
He had come to the Immortal Realm's secret mine to seize the resources within to break through to the Spirit River Stage. Therefore, the cruel world that everyone struggled in was different from the world that he had absolute control over.
Naturally, he could not be bothered to get involved with them.
No matter what kind of dangers there were in the mine, as long as he had the Duan Xiong body as his trump card, he was absolutely immune to most of the dangers.
Even if this was the encampment of the Nine Heavens Formation Breaking Team, with the strength of Duan Xiong's physical body and Chu Chen's increasingly proficient control over him, even if they were to be surrounded by the Nine Heavens Formation Breaking Team, Chu Chen was confident that Duan Xiong would be able to bring him away.
With this card, there was naturally no need to worry too much.
Thinking up to this point, Chu Chen slowly urged his soul power to communicate with his Duan Xiong doppelganger that was thousands of miles away.
But as soon as he used his soul power, his expression changed.
The thick fog that shrouded this area was actually able to block his Divine Sense and soul perception!
As long as his divine sense entered a thousand feet into the thick fog, it would not be able to move an inch further!
Chu Chen was greatly alarmed!
This was no small matter. Ever since he'd stepped into the cultivation world, Chu Chen's soul power had always been incomparably vigorous and invincible. No matter where he went, he'd never encountered any obstructions or blockades.
But now, the fog in this ancient mountain in the Immortal Realm had actually completely blocked his soul power.
Even if he pushed his soul power to its strongest state, he still felt as if there were thousands of mountains around him, firmly trapping his divine sense here. There was no way he could break out!
Damn it!
This was bad …
The corner of Chu Chen's mouth twitched unconsciously. The Duan Xiong body was undoubtedly his greatest trump card.
It was also because of the existence of the Duan Xiong body that he didn't mind even when he wore crystal shackles that sealed his spiritual power.
But now that his divine sense was blocked, he couldn't summon the Duan Xiong body at all … this was the end!
Cold sweat involuntarily appeared on Chu Chen's forehead, drop by drop.
Of all his calculations, he hadn't expected the Duan Xiong body to be sealed!
This ancient mountain of immortal crystals had truly turned into hell.
If he made a mistake, with his spiritual power sealed, he might not even be able to survive in this damned place!
Chu Chen faintly felt a toothache, but it was too late for regrets now that things had come to this.
His temperament had always been extremely tenacious and steady. Now that he saw that his original plan couldn't be realized, he might as well calm down and properly understand this immortal crystal mine.
When he returned, he would first think of a way to meet up with Shi Yuyan and the others.
Thinking of this, he didn't think too much about it. He simply leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to rest.
Since he couldn't summon the Duan Xiong body to come here and slaughter everyone, he could only conserve his strength and stamina at all times in preparation for any danger that might sweep over him at any time.
After Chu Chen slowly fell asleep, the voices around him, which were growing fainter and fainter, also disappeared.
"You bunch of trash, hurry up and get up. Get ready to work!"
Chu Chen didn't know how long he had slept for, but a thunderous shout exploded in the cell, shaking him awake.
He opened his eyes and saw several white-robed disciples of the Nine Heavens Formation Breaking Team glaring at the people in the cell with fiendish expressions.
The leader of the group was a big man in white with a curly beard. He held a steel whip in his hand, and with a "bang", he whipped the iron fence, making a thunderous sound and bursting out countless shocking sparks.
The entire cell was shaking!
Chu Chen's eyes trembled, and he frowned.
At this moment, a soft and gentle voice entered his ears. "Little brother, hurry up and get up. Otherwise, these guys won't be polite. You'll suffer."
Chu Chen was stunned for a moment. He looked in the direction of the voice and saw a woman in a long red dress.
She looked to be about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. Her eyebrows were somewhat flirtatious as she secretly winked at him.
Hearing these words, Chu Chen subconsciously stood up.
"Are you deaf? You don't even know how to walk. How can we expect you to dig for ores? "
The curly bearded man stared fiercely at the crowd. "If you can't even dig for ores, then there's no value in living!"
At this moment, the entire cell was already filled with people lying crookedly. Their spiritual power was sealed, and they had walked for a long time in the fog. Many people were somewhat tired.
Even though they heard the Nine Heavens Formation Breaking Team's reprimand, some people still couldn't react in time. Their faces were dazed.
Most of the people were startled and hurriedly scrambled to their feet.
Chu Chen discovered that there were also arrogant and unruly cultivators among them.
One of them was a middle-aged cultivator in a dark golden silk robe. He had an ambitious and ruthless aura. It was obvious that he was at least the sect master of a small sect.
He should have a certain amount of influence in the Evil Dao.
His eyes were unyielding as he spoke on behalf of the crowd. "Everyone has traveled a long way to come to this place. We are already physically and mentally exhausted. Furthermore, we are wearing crystal shackles. Please be understanding …"
"Impudent!"
The curly bearded man in white robes narrowed his eyes. He forcefully lashed out with the steel whip in his hand. With a "pa" sound, the whip ferociously lashed out at a cultivator in a dark golden silk robe.
The steel whip made of runic profound steel was covered with barbs. With a fierce swipe, it left a bloody wound on the cultivator's face.
