Special War God

Chapter 132 Underground Yuanshi Mine

The chances of life are always amazing. Feng Yunzi pursued something for two thousand years, but at the last moment he chose to let it go and help others. The old sect of Tianyi Sect in the past contained the Yuanmai, and Feng Yunzi knew this area very well. He was naturally confident that he could find the exact location of the place that also contained the Yuanmai.

A flying spirit beast carried Xia Zhongnan and the others straight into the sky, rushing towards the hinterland of the mountain range. In the distance, there were occasional sounds of fighting and shadows of people coming from the direction of the palace, but they did not stop and just followed Xia Zhongnan's instructions to quickly cross.

Finally, they landed in a place with birds singing and flowers blooming behind the palace complex. It was quiet and elegant, making people linger. All the spirit beasts looked at Xia Zhongnan, waiting for his next instruction. Xu Qian asked first: "Where is this? There is nothing special about it. Why don't we go to the palace complex in front? It's much more lively there."

Xia Zhongnan still confirmed with Feng Yunzi: "Senior Sect Master, is this the destination?"

Feng Yunzi replied: "The Yuanmai is hidden in the veins deep in the earth. If you want to find its trace, you will definitely encounter many obstacles. The three-meter area in front of you is an array eye. You can start digging from here and go deeper along the direction below the mountain."

After receiving the instructions, Xia Zhongnan pointed to a spot of ground and announced: "We will start digging from this place and advance towards the bottom of the mountain."

This decision puzzled Xu Qian, Gu Xiu Zhang and the spirit beasts. After all, they knew that Xia Zhongnan was also here for the first time, and it was unbelievable that he could find the treasure just by pointing. However, Xia Zhongnan's words were firm, making everyone curious about what he was planning. Even the usually calm Tu Shan Fang'er couldn't help but ask, "Brother, what are you looking for?"

To encourage everyone's enthusiasm, Xia Zhongnan explained: "I feel there are treasures underground. We need to dig from here all the way down."

Huang Cheng then asked: "How deep do we need to dig?"

Xia Zhongnan had no choice but to ask Feng Yunzi, the old sect leader, "Senior, how deep do we have to dig to reach the core?"

Feng Yunzi naturally sensed Huang Cheng's doubts. He hesitated for a moment before answering, "We need to go eighteen miles deep into the earth veins."

Xia Zhongnan couldn't help but take a deep breath when he heard this, thinking to himself: "We have to go so deep underground? Is this a mistake? After all, this is underground!"

In his mind, he calculated that eighteen miles corresponded to a nine thousand foot abyss. To dig nine thousand feet down, this project was as vast as a natural moat. How long would it take to complete it?

Even the Kola Superdeep Borehole in Russia was only about 10,000 feet deep, and only a small path with a diameter of several inches was excavated, and it still took more than 20 years to complete.

However, a wide tunnel needs to be dug here for living creatures to walk through. Do they really have enough time to dig it?

Although he was confused, Xia Zhongnan still replied, "It seems that we need to dig nine thousand feet here, which is eighteen miles away."

However, Huang Cheng didn't care and replied calmly: "Then do it!"

It then bent down where Xia Zhongnan pointed, and its claws flew like sharp blades, instantly opening up a tunnel large enough to accommodate its huge body, and continued to move forward, at a speed that was almost the same as that of an ordinary person walking.

Huang Cheng was two meters tall, and the passage he dug was wide enough for Xia Zhongnan to pass through while standing upright. It was as if an extremely powerful underground machine was advancing in front of him, and a large amount of soil was pressed into the cave wall by its strong and powerful hind claws.

Xia Zhongnan was dumbfounded again when he saw this. He realized that the strange beasts in this world that could dig through the ground and rocks could be so astonishing when they used their abilities.

Stepping into the tunnel opened by Huang Cheng, two bright beams of light burst out from the eyes of the Chongming Bird, instantly illuminating the entire tunnel like daylight. With their eyesight at the Transformation Realm, this place is no different from the sunshine. Xia Zhongnan couldn't help but sigh again: These strange beasts have their own unique talents. If we can subdue more than 200 such strange beasts in the future, what a powerful team it will be!

At Xia Zhongnan's suggestion, the beasts filed into the tunnel one after another, and Qiongqi assisted Bai Ze in covering up the traces left at the cave entrance. Bai Ze was even more meticulous, and whenever he went a certain distance, he would set up a mechanism to prevent others from tracking him.

About an hour later, Huang Cheng had easily walked halfway through the 18-mile tunnel. At this time, Feng Yunzi spoke up to remind him, and Xia Zhongnan instructed Huang Cheng to change direction, no longer going straight, but to zigzag in order to avoid those hidden underground formations.

The beasts saw that there were indeed remains of formations here, and they were all refreshed, believing that there must be treasures hidden underground. At the same time, they were more and more in awe of Xia Zhongnan's magical powers, and they all felt puzzled as to why Xia Zhongnan suddenly showed such amazing magical powers.

Although the subsequent excavation process was much slower than before, the strange beasts did not show any sign of impatience. Instead, they were looking forward to the treasure house mentioned by Xia Zhongnan. Even Xu Qian, who had an eccentric personality, felt an irrepressible excitement surging in her heart.

Until a certain moment, Huang Cheng suddenly stopped, took a deep breath, stepped back a few steps, and cast his eyes towards Xia Zhongnan...

Xia Zhongnan stared at the place where Huang Cheng stopped with a sharp gaze, his eyes flashing with a strange light, because he found that there was an open area in front of him, like a secret cave formed naturally underground. Inside the cave, many bright crystals shone brightly under the spiritual light released by the Chongming Bird, which was obviously the essence of extremely pure Yuanshi.

Xu Qian, Gu Xiu Zhang and many other strange birds and beasts who witnessed this scene couldn't help but gasp, their hearts shocked, their heartbeats beating like war drums.

Tu Shanfang'er couldn't hide her excitement and asked loudly: "Brother, this is actually a Yuanshi vein? Is the purpose of bringing us here just to dig for this Yuanshi vein?"

Xia Zhongnan calmed down a little and said to Huang Cheng: "Huang Cheng, why don't you stop? Keep mining! The treasure has already appeared, how can you shrink back?"

When the crowd and the monsters and beasts heard this, they all laughed out loud. They no longer stood idly by, but started to widen the cave entrance and headed deeper into the cave.

After entering the cave, one could see the dazzlingly shining Yuanshi everywhere, which decorated the entire space as bright as the Milky Way. Xu Qian did not hesitate to collect the Yuanshi and stuffed them into the storage ring.

While collecting them, she did not forget to complain to Xia Zhongnan: "Master, you are always too cautious. Previously, you forced me to leave the extra storage ring in Wentian Palace. Now there are so many Yuanshi, but my storage ring is still full of spiritual herbs. What should I do?"
