Chapter 2641: Chapter 2642: At Last, the Spirit of Crystal Stone Appears
Moreover, from the Sect Leader’s words, it’s known that this top-grade vein has another characteristic, and that is when mining, it needs to be done methodically, piece by piece. If you rush it, the entire vein will be destroyed!
However, this is after all a small cave. By following this cave, cultivators can enter to cultivate. After all, it’s a cave formed by Crystal Stone, and cultivating inside is much faster than outside, which is another characteristic of this top-grade vein.
Ye Luo didn’t plan on cultivating inside it. He entered this cave to find the whereabouts of the Spirit of Crystal Stone! He had basically determined that this place is the lair of the Spirit of Crystal Stone!
Just as he was about to enter the cave, he suddenly had a feeling of being watched!
He immediately activated the Clairvoyant Eye, but there were no other cultivators around except for the disciples of Infinity Sect, leaving him puzzled. Logically, if there were an ambusher, even a strong person at the level of Martial King couldn’t escape the Clairvoyant Eye, and Ye Luo’s Divine Sense is incredibly powerful, so how could he have made a mistake!
Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration, and his Divine Sense spread out. The detection by Divine Sense is not as clear as the Clairvoyant Eye, but for the Origin Source of strength, it’s much more accurate than the perception by the Clairvoyant Eye!
Indeed! Ye Luo’s heart was moved; not far away, his Divine Sense sensed the Origin Source of Spiritual Energy! It’s the Spirit of Crystal Stone!
It seems the Spirit of Crystal Stone has detached from its Origin Source and is wandering outside. If now its Origin Source has been discovered, it must be extremely anxious!
Ye Luo understood that the reason this mining cave is so difficult to excavate, even the Origin Source of Spiritual Energy is hidden so secretly, is probably the doing of the Spirit of Crystal Stone!
Even so, the operations in this top-grade vein may not go smoothly, but for Ye Luo, this doesn’t count for much.
"Young Master, it’s said that some bizarre things happen in this top-grade vein, so you must be careful!" Before departure, the Sect Leader suddenly said solemnly.
"Oh? Then tell me, what bizarre things are there!" Ye Luo asked curiously.
While this Sect Leader’s realm may not be impressive, his knowledge far exceeds other strong individuals of the same realm, mainly because he has lived far too long.
"This top-grade vein is rare even in the Demon Realm, and most are controlled by large families. Of course, those large families naturally won’t mine these veins but rather use them for cultivation purposes. However, it’s rumored that this top-grade vein can devour cultivators. Once a cultivator enters, their realm would be affected, and some cultivators vanish after entering. Thus, some speculate that this top-grade vein might be connected to other spaces, and others suspect there might be something ominous inside, cursing cultivators to meet their demise here!"
Ye Luo frowned. These legends, though somewhat exaggerated, also demonstrate that this top-grade vein must indeed hold dangers.
"I’ve noted these. You all stay guard here. If someone comes to make trouble, just crush this sachet, and I’ll be aware of it!"
After the Sect Leader accepted the sachet, Ye Luo leaped directly into the vein.
Upon entering the vein, a vast flow of Spiritual Energy surged towards him. Even his physical body felt a wave of comfort. Undoubtedly, cultivating here is much stronger than outside, and the deeper you go, the stronger this effect becomes.
However, Ye Luo also noted one thing, the Demonic Qi here is relatively strong as well. Among the cultivators cultivating inside, they also have to face the invasion of Demonic Qi, and for severe cases, it can even generate a Heart Demon, which is a significant problem.
The cave at first was quite narrow, but as he went deeper, it gradually widened. Soon, the faint light at the entrance vanished, and unless Ye Luo activated his Clairvoyant Eye, there was no way to distinguish direction in this cave.
He understood that the disciples of Infinity Sect didn’t rashly venture into this vein because of those eerie legends. Otherwise, with such massive benefits enticement, they might not have heeded Ye Luo’s instructions.
However, after walking awhile, Ye Luo felt something was amiss, because, after all, the Clairvoyant Eye is not omnipotent. More importantly, activating the Clairvoyant Eye consumes his Origin Power and certainly can’t be kept on for long periods. Therefore, he could only walk a certain distance and then activate it again!
After all, this is a cave, and he just needed to walk along the stone walls.
But the branches in this cave became more frequent. When Ye Luo randomly chose a branch, inside was an extremely hazardous area! Inside, there was even a great killing array! This Formation seemed naturally formed, using the power of the cave’s Crystal Stones to activate a deadly Killing Array. Its power is exceptional, enough to annihilate cultivators below the Fifth Level of the Heavenly Martial Realm!
This level of might even exceeded Ye Luo’s expectations!
He certainly wouldn’t believe this is some naturally formed Formation. It’s evidently the work of the Spirit of Crystal Stone, though he didn’t expect the Spirit of Crystal Stone to set such a piercing Formation.
And this was just the beginning!
Further down, no one knows what kind of danger might be encountered, forcing him to be extra cautious.
However, this cave was like a labyrinth; leaving aside advancing, even if Ye Luo wanted to exit the cave, it might not even be possible!
It seems the Sect Leader’s words are indeed correct, given such a vein, even someone at the level of the Martial King might find it difficult to navigate out!
Ye Luo paused again at an intersection, where five paths lay before him!
Relying solely on the naked eye, he couldn’t even discern the entrance he originally came from.
He wasn’t in a hurry, simply sat down on the ground, closed his legs, and began cultivating.
All around was silence, yet his Clairvoyant Eye opened slowly.
Soon, a hazy shadow emerged from one of the cave entrances; it was the Spirit of Crystal Stone. It turned out it had been watching Ye Luo all along, and Ye Luo hadn’t noticed its existence as he hadn’t been using the Clairvoyant Eye recently!
Ye Luo was curious now, wanting to witness the power of this vein. After all, if the Clairvoyant Eye was activated and coupled with Divine Sense detection, there’s no way this cave could confine him!
Subsequently, a smile graced his lips as he rose and headed directly towards the cave of the Spirit of Crystal Stone.
Under the Clairvoyant Eye, the Spirit of Crystal Stone transformed into the image of a hazy woman and swiftly flew away, passing through several intersections. Ye Luo almost always followed the path of the Spirit of Crystal Stone.
Originally, Ye Luo had to keep the Clairvoyant Eye constantly active to ensure the correct path choice. Now it was much easier; he only needed to sense the aura of the Spirit of Crystal Stone to smoothly proceed all the way.
