It was a very large Source Mine. Thousands of people were digging inside, but it was still very spacious. Terrified screams rang out and traveled very far.
The Source Miners ran toward the exit as if they had gone crazy. There were stone bones everywhere, piled up like rocks. People kept falling down. People were squeezed and trampled on.
In the deepest part of the mine, a bloody mist floated. Anyone who touched it screamed and instantly turned into a pool of blood, dying a violent death.
The cultivators of the Yaoguang Holy Land all took action. They either took out their weapons or used secret techniques to block the cold mist.
However, neither the weapons nor the secret techniques could stop the bloody mist. It was very corrosive. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen weapons were melted.
"Ghost! Help!"
"It has three eyes. I see the devil!"
The Source Miners ran for their lives. They screamed in extreme fear.
Ye Fan felt that something was wrong. The premonition of those old Source Collection Elders was most likely coming true. His hands and feet were nimble, and he ran at the very front. In a few breaths, he rushed out of the mine and only stopped when he reached a safe place.
Bang!
The mine was broken through. The cultivators of the Yaoguang Holy Land rushed out. One of them was a middle-aged man. He almost went crazy and screamed in fear. But in the blink of an eye, he turned into a pool of blood and fell down.
The mine was in chaos. Screams and cries could be heard everywhere. The people who had escaped were trembling. They crawled and rolled away from the place.
It was not until seven minutes later that everything calmed down. Nearly a thousand people had gone down to dig the stone bones. In the end, only about 300 people had escaped. The rest had all died inside.
The cultivators of the Yaoguang Holy Land all looked gloomy. They had just tried to block the bloody mist, but five people had died, including a middle-aged man from the Holy Zhi Palace.
They hurried to report this to their superiors. The Ghost Mine had appeared. This was the last thing they wanted to see.
Soon, a Great Elder of the Yaoguang Holy Land and seven or eight famous figures rushed over and asked about the situation in the mine.
In the end, no one could explain in detail. They could only say that they saw a ghost that was not moving.
"All of you, step back," Great Elder Li Yuan of the Yaoguang Holy Land shouted. He pointed his finger like a sword and slashed forward.
A beam of light shot out, turned into a huge sword of light, and slashed downwards.
The noise was like thunder, dust and sand flying everywhere. That large mine was cut open. It was pitch-black and gloomy, looking extremely strange.
Grand Elder Li Yuan continued to shake his finger. The light sword that was over a hundred feet long continued to descend, cutting open the mine and exposing it to the outside world.
All of the earth and rocks were teleported several hundred meters away, and a huge crater appeared there. Many stone bones were extracted by Li Yuan and landed not far away.
Ye Fan watched from the side and was shocked. A large number of bones had turned into fossils, and upon closer inspection, he discovered that they were not human bones. Even though there were some humanoid creatures, they were still different from humans.
Grand Elder Li Yuan kept moving, using his sword to cut open the Origin Ore, and using spells to pull out all the stone bones.
Soon, a mountain of stone bones appeared on the reddish-brown earth. There were at least ten thousand of them.
Streams of bloody mist rose, and when Li Yuan's light swords came into contact with it, they emitted a sizzling sound and were actually dissolved. He waved his large sleeve, scattering the bloody mist and sending it into the heavens. Only after a long time had passed did this place calm down.
Then, he used a secret spell, and green light condensed into a huge hand that reached into the depths of the mine.
The earth suddenly trembled. The huge hand grabbed all the earth and rocks in the mine and placed them on the ground.
"Demon!"
"It's that demon!"
It was a blood-colored earth and rocks, and there were several Source Stones in it. They were all as big as washbasins. Such a size was very rare and extremely precious. It could be called a rich mine.
What was shocking was that there was something inside each Source Stone, and it was not pure.
The first two Source Stones were sealed with bright red liquid, which was obviously blood. Just now, one of the Source Stones had broken, and the blood inside had flowed out, which led to the tragedy.
"Just how powerful is this creature? Its blood turned into a bloody mist, and it could even kill cultivators of the Holy Zhi Palace Secret Realm …" The legendary figures of the Yaoguang Holy Land were all shocked.
Grand Elder Li Yuan also frowned.
The third Source Stone was sealed with a crystalline finger. It was very beautiful, as white and tender as a spring onion. Although it was just a broken finger, people could feel that it was extraordinary, and there was a vigorous energy contained in it.
The fourth Source Stone was the most shocking. Sealed inside was half a head. There were fine scales on its face, and there was a vertical eye on its forehead. It had thick black hair, and the head had been split in half.
"It should be two different creatures. The thin finger and half a head are obviously not from the same body." The legendary figures were all shocked.
"These four Source Stones are too important. I need to personally escort them back to the holy land." Grand Elder Li Yuan's expression was solemn.
Although it was not the legendary peerless Divine Source, there was a creature sealed inside, and its value was immeasurable. They could not be lost.
He sealed the four Source Stones and then waved his sleeve, putting them away. Then, he carefully observed the earth and rocks on the ground.
Along with the four Source Stones, there were two broken stone skeletons. One was thin, and the other was fierce. They were two different creatures. Although they were humanoid, they were definitely not human. The thin stone skeleton had six arms, and the fierce one had a pair of bone wings.
Ye Fan saw it clearly from afar. He was speechless. What kind of powerful creatures were these? Why were they nowhere to be seen?
"Rumble!"
Suddenly, the open mine collapsed. Everyone was shocked. The bottom of the mine sank, and a pitch-black hole appeared.
It was a mine that looked like a burial pit, but there was a bottomless pit below it!
It was not dug by the crowd. It was a deep pit that had been there for a long time, and now it was exposed.
A chilling aura soared into the sky, causing everyone to shiver.
Grand Elder Li Yuan of the Yaoguang Holy Land could not keep calm anymore. He said, "It seems that this place is not normal."
He asked everyone to step back and personally took action. He used his divine consciousness to observe. After a while, he tried his best to use a secret art.
Boom!
The sky shook and the ground cracked. He used the Yaoguang Divine Art to make the mine rise. It was a secret art that could move mountains and fill seas.
Earth and rocks flew everywhere, and the ground cracked. The mine kept rising. A lot of earth cracked and rocks were thrown into the distance.
The Grand Elder of the Yaoguang Holy Land used his secret art to make the earth's crust move violently.
The big hole under the burial pit was no longer low, and it was floating up slowly.
"Oh my … What is that?"
The red ground shook. The gloomy and oppressive aura became heavier and heavier. A cold metallic luster appeared.
"A huge iron block!"
As the earth and rocks moved, the big hole was no longer low. It was level with the ground, and everything could be seen.
This was not a small project. The ground was paved with hard stones, and it was very flat. The area was several miles wide. There were also huge stone pillars at the edge, reaching into the sky.
In the middle of the stone ground, there was a pyramid made of metal. It was more than a hundred meters tall, and it was green with a metallic luster. There was no rust at all.
Ye Fan was shocked. What was that?
The sun, moon, and stars were carved on it, shining brightly.
This huge pyramid was made of an unknown metal. It was an object from the Immemorial Age at the latest, or even earlier. However, time had not worn it down.
Li Yuan, the Grand Elder of the Yaoguang Holy Land, frowned. He waved his sleeve, trying to put the huge pyramid away.
However, he was surprised. He tried to move it, and found that he could move it. However, the mist was surging, and he couldn't put it in his sleeve.
"Something is wrong!"
Li Yuan walked closer and used his divine power to scan the pyramid. The sun, moon, and stars on it all lit up. After a flash of light, he went inside.
Behind him, the famous figures of the Yaoguang Holy Land were all shocked. They looked worried.
Boom!
The green pyramid shook, and people felt suffocated. Many mortals fell to the ground.
After a while, the sun, moon, and stars on the pyramid shone brightly. Li Yuan rushed out with a pale face. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, and he staggered backward.
"Retreat! Everyone retreat! Don't come close!" he shouted, and his body was shaking.
Ye Fan was shocked. What was so strange about this pyramid that even the Grand Elder of the Yaoguang Holy Land had suffered.
"This place is very important. Seal all information here. I will return to the Holy Land immediately. Don't come close," Li Yuan said solemnly. He then left in a hurry, preparing to cross the void.
The fifteenth mining area had become a forbidden area. No one was allowed to enter or leave. Ye Fan frowned. This place was not good, and he didn't want to stay for long. However, he couldn't leave now.
On the fourth day after the Grand Elder Li Yuan left, the Yaoguang Saintess arrived with news that the Divine Lord would arrive soon.
Ye Fan's mouth twitched, and he cursed his bad luck. Yao Xi had actually arrived. If she found out, she would definitely skin him alive.
In the distance, he saw Yao Xi. Just like before, she was like a fairy that could topple nations. She was like a pearl that emitted auspicious light. Her jade-like body was suffocating.
Thousands of mortals saw her and thought she was a fairy. Many people lost their composure and felt ashamed of themselves.
Ye Fan hid among the thousands of mortals, so he wasn't worried about being recognized. He curled his lips. The so-called fairy's bra was still in his arms.
If this secret got out, the Great Sage's land would definitely be shocked.
"Don't leak any information. Seal the fifteenth mining area. No one is allowed to enter or leave." The Yaoguang Saintess' voice was like the sound of nature.
However, at this moment, the Yaoguang Saintess suddenly stopped talking. Her expression was blank, and she seemed to be very surprised.
Ye Fan's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the other party had discovered him? That was impossible.
At this moment, the other cultivators from the Yaoguang Holy Land also cried out in surprise.
"You … who are you? How did you get in?!"
Ye Fan turned around and looked at the pyramid. A faint cyan light appeared. In front of the cyan iron tower, an old woman had appeared out of nowhere.
She didn't make a sound. No one knew how she got there. It was as if she had appeared out of thin air.
She was looking around the pyramid and mumbling something.
The fifteenth mining area was a vast reddish-brown land. It was very spacious. If an outsider broke in, he would have noticed her immediately.
However, the crowd had not noticed it at all before this.
Ye Fan was extremely shocked. He thought to himself, "It's her!"
He didn't expect to see this old woman again in the Northern Region.
Years ago, when he met Crazy 'Ole for the first time outside the forbidden area of the Remote Antiquity, this old woman had shown up. Through her mumbling, he knew that Crazy' Ole was from 6,000 years ago.
"She is from the same generation as Crazy 'Ole. I can't believe she is here …" Ye Fan was surprised.
