Chapter 016: Deep Attraction

There are three rain steel stone deposits in this valley, two of which are relatively small and one is relatively large.

Mining this Rain Steel Stone is actually quite difficult. Furthermore, ordinary Rain Steel Stone isn't very useful; only mutated varieties are valuable. Furthermore, the age of Rain Steel Stone varies; older ones are more useful and, naturally, more valuable. These three Rain Steel Stone deposits have been discovered for countless years, and it's safe to say that all that can be mined has already been mined. Now, perhaps only a few Rain Steel Stones remain deep within the deposits.

However, the deeper the mine, the more dangerous it is, and only experts can enter. Therefore, the rain steel stones in these three mines have not been completely mined.

According to the stall owner, the mutated Rain Steel Stone that Shen Yichuan obtained was obtained from the depths of the smallest of the three mines. Not long after, Shen Yichuan and his companions arrived there.

"The rain steel stones here have indeed been almost mined out. I'm afraid there may not be much left in this deep place." Several martial artists in the team came over after checking.

Shen Yichuan said: "I will take ten people to take a look, and the rest of you will stay outside."

Everyone obeyed the order. Shen Yichuan called ten people including Qi Hang, and everyone quickly went underground.

Of the ten people who descended, five were in the late stage of martial arts, and the other five were all martial masters. Everyone descended quickly, but the mines here were indeed dug very deep, and Shen Yichuan and his group felt the pressure as they reached deeper. In the process, they had already collected more than a dozen pieces of Rain Steel Stone, but Shen Yichuan was not satisfied. Although most of the pieces were mutated, they were not the mutation he wanted.

These rain steel stones made him have no desire to devour them at all!

"Mr. Shen, do you want to go down?" Qi Hang asked.

Shen Yichuan nodded and narrowed his eyes: "Go down."

The team continued to descend. The pressure below them was not just pressure, but also gravity. They needed to break through the path ahead. The rain steel stone was inherently extremely hard, and so was the ore. Everyone's pace slowed down.

Qi Hang slashed out with his sword, and his fighting spirit broke the road ahead, loosening the Yugang Stone deposit a little. Qi Hang slashed out with his sword again, and then a martial artist nearby came over and moved the stone away.

"Here are two pieces of mutated Rain Steel Stone." The martial artist said, and hurriedly took the Rain Steel Stone.

Shen Yichuan took the Rain Steel Stone and was very disappointed, because this was still not the kind of Rain Steel Stone he was looking for.

"Let's keep moving forward." Shen Yichuan said.

In this way, another two hours passed, and finally, Shen Yichuan's heart skipped a beat, and he felt that breath!

At this time, as expected, Qi Hang personally led the way and delivered two pieces of Rain Steel Stone. "Young Master Chen, I found two more pieces."

Shen Yichuan tried his best to appear calm and put away the two mutant rain steel stones. "See if there are any more around here."

Qi Hang responded and continued searching.

Outside, the two little guys had fallen asleep while waiting, but after waking up and eating, they still didn't wait for Shen Yichuan to come out, which made the two little guys worried.

"Why hasn't father come out yet? Is he okay?"

"No, there are a lot of people going in there. If anything happens, they will definitely get the news."

"I hope Dad comes out soon."

When the two little guys were anxious, suddenly, there was a loud bang in the distance. The noise was so loud that even the ground here shook.

"Ah, it exploded." Both little guys were shocked.

In the void, the Sixth Elder frowned slightly as he looked in that direction. This was deep in the valley, and he was somewhat suspicious whether the explosion was related to the three guardians.

At this moment, several figures flew out, and the two little guys immediately shouted in surprise.

"Father!"

Aren’t the ones who came out the ones who made it Shen Yichuan and the others?

The two little guys ran towards Shen Yichuan, and Shen Yichuan picked up the two little ones in each hand. He was very satisfied with this trip because he got six pieces of rain steel stone!

Although he actually had some doubts when he was at the inn that this was not a real mutated Rain Steel Stone, and thought that he might not be able to find the same thing here, but fortunately he knew it. As for whether this thing was a mutated Rain Steel Stone, Shen Yichuan felt that there was no need to think too much about it.

"Father, you are finally out."

"Father, are you okay? Are you hurt? You've been gone for a long time. My brother and I have been sleeping."

"Yes, father, are you hurt? We are all anxious to find you."

Shen Yichuan smiled and pinched the two little ones' chubby cheeks, "You guys want to look for me? No, just wait for your father obediently."

"By the way, father, there was an explosion over there just now."

"Yeah, it's a very loud noise."

"Explosion?" Shen Yichuan raised his eyebrows, and soon a guard came over to report what had just happened.

Shen Yichuan looked in that direction, and vaguely, his heart beat again. He was familiar with this reaction. He had the same reaction when he encountered the mutated rain steel stone.

Could it be that there are also treasures over there that I can devour?

Shen Yichuan immediately decided: "Let's go over there and take a look."

The team immediately headed over there, but before they got there, they saw many teams of independent cultivators running towards them.

The guard stopped two of them and said, "Brothers, what's going on up there? The explosion just now was quite loud."

The two wandering cultivators were both at the late stage of martial arts masters. Although they were at the same level as the guards who stopped them, there were many martial masters in Shen Yichuan's team. The two wandering cultivators were not ignorant and naturally would not be arrogant and not answer anything. They quickly told him the situation over there.

"There's a volcano erupting over there, with flames shooting up into the sky. Several mid-stage martial artists who got too close were instantly reduced to ashes. We can't get close at all."

"Volcano?" The guard was shocked. "There's a volcano here?"

"There shouldn't be any. I've never heard of it before, but it certainly looked like a volcanic eruption just now."

"Yes, we don't know the details of what happened, but the volcano is showing signs of spreading outward. We are running for our lives, and we don't know if the volcano will spread here." Another casual cultivator said.

The guard thanked them and the two wandering cultivators left quickly.

The guard came over to report to Shen Yichuan. Shen Yichuan thought for a moment and said, "All martial artists should retreat outside the valley. Four martial masters will stay to protect the young master and the young lady. The rest of the martial masters will follow me to take a look ahead."

There is no problem with Shen Yichuan's arrangement. Wu Zun will go there. Even if he cannot go to the front, he will not be afraid of being too late to escape with him.

They said that four Martial Lords would be left behind, but did not mention Martial Emperors. That was naturally because they believed that the Martial Emperors would divide the tasks among themselves.

The two little things blinked, a little disappointed that they couldn't follow along.

Shen Yichuan patted the two little guys on the head and said, "Be obedient, father will go out to look for you soon. If it takes too long, you can go back to the inn first."

"Oh." Although the two little guys were disappointed, they still nodded.

Shen Yichuan said nothing more and quickly went forward with a dozen martial masters.

The further forward he went, the more monks he saw retreating towards this side. Shen Yichuan's heart was pounding. This attraction was actually much stronger than the mutated rain steel stone!

I must! I must get this thing! Shen Yichuan swore secretly.

"There are still people going over there? They really are not afraid of death."

"Why meddle in other people's business? If you suffer a loss there, you will know to leave."

"Those two Martial Lords were just blown away by the flames, right? Martial Lords can't get close to the volcano over there. We better run for our lives."

Shen Yichuan didn't take other people's comments to heart. He increased his speed until there were no more martial artists coming towards him. Shen Yichuan finally felt the rising heat wave, and this place was probably at least several thousand meters away from the real "volcanic eruption"!

"Mr. Shen, I'm afraid it's difficult to get in here."

"Let's take a closer look at the situation. Everyone, use your protective gear." As Shen Yichuan spoke, a black cloak appeared on his body, wrapping him up completely. This cloak was a high-level protective magic weapon, very expensive! And this thing was naturally the protective treasure given to him by the Qi family.

After putting on the cloak, the surging heat wave in front of him was no longer noticeable. Shen Yichuan ordered: "Forward!"

Ahead, deep in the "volcano", a long object and a small round object were confronting each other.

The long shape said, "Are you crazy? You turned this mountain into a volcano!"

Yuangungun snorted coldly: "That's my ability, are you jealous?"

"Damn it, am I jealous? I want to beat you up. You're affecting me, you know that?" The long and narrow creature was very angry. It stretched out its little claws and hit the round one.

Yuangungun didn't retreat either, but stretched out his claws. When the two claws collided with each other, sparks flew... Those were real sparks, just like the sparks formed by the friction between two sharp knives colliding violently. It can be seen how sharp the claws of this long and round core Yuangungun are.

And it's still the same, the same degree of sharpness, otherwise, how would the sparks come out?

After fighting for a while, the two men realized that they could only hurt each other with all their might, so they both stopped.

Yuan Yuan frowned and said, "We can't stay here anymore. I'm going to take you outside. What about you?"

The long creature rolled its eyes, and the deep inside of its eyeballs was actually golden!

The long figure pondered, "We definitely have to get out now. There are still a few humans outside trying to break the restrictions. I'm really overthinking it. With their level, they actually think they can break the restrictions here? They're just dreaming."

"It won't break through in a short time, but now the volcano has erupted and the geology has changed. It's only a matter of time before it breaks through. Let's go."

Then, the long and round shapes turned into two beams of light and left the depths of the volcano and flew quickly out.

At the same time, Shen Yichuan finally arrived in front of the "volcano".

This cloak is truly a high-end product. Even though he was so close to the volcano, he only felt heat, which was not enough to make him unbearable.

Good stuff!
