As they went deeper, all three felt the surrounding temperature rising steadily, quickly reaching a terrifying forty degrees Celsius.
Furthermore, as the depth increased, the surrounding soil gradually turned red.
But at that moment, Chen Guiran sensed something, and his expression changed.
"Valley Master, I think I've dug something up."
Upon hearing this, Lin Fan and Lin Yichen quickly went to Chen Guiran's vicinity.
"What did you dig up?"
Lin Yichen asked, sensing that this item was the treasure that kept the Lin family warm all year round.
"I don't know, this material has never been recorded before, and it's also very large."
Chen Guiran said with a solemn expression that after awakening his earth-type ability, he had tried to sense mineral soils that were recorded all over the world, but the one below was something he had never sensed before.
Ariel Lin was naturally aware of this, so she said with a serious expression.
"Open it up and let me see."
Upon hearing this, Chen Guiran took a deep breath and then slowly stirred the soil beneath. Soon, a crimson stone appeared in front of the three of them.
The crimson exterior emanated a considerable temperature, but fortunately, all three were superhumans with enhanced physical abilities, which allowed them to withstand it.
"What exactly is this material?"
Chen Guiran bent down and gently stroked the stone with his hand, only to discover that this was just the tip of the iceberg.
When Lin Fan and Lin Yichen saw the stone, their expressions turned serious, and the image of a stone suddenly appeared in their minds.
"This is... Red Stone!"
Lin Yichen said in disbelief, then took out the pendant on her body, which was the red stone that Xiao Chen had given them earlier.
"Let's go out first."
Lin Fan took a deep breath, his face becoming serious. Clearly, this matter had greatly impacted him, because Xiao Chen had told him that although the Crimson Stone was ordinary, it was still a true treasure for cultivators.
Chen Guiran could clearly tell from the two men's expressions that the thing below was probably quite extraordinary, so he nodded and headed towards the top of the pit.
The three quickly returned to the top of the pit, and by then the people of Ice and Snow Valley had already slaughtered the remaining members of the Lin family.
"Has everything been resolved?"
When Ariel Lin saw them approaching, she asked them a question, as she didn't want to leave any potential problems for herself.
"They've all been taken care of; not even the dog was left behind."
"A-level ability user said with a serious expression."
"That's good."
"By the way, Valley Master, what exactly is that down there?"
Chen Guiran finally couldn't suppress his curiosity and asked.
Lin Yichen didn't speak directly, but instead exchanged a glance with Lin Fan.
"Just say it, the boss probably won't care anyway."
Lin Fan thought for a moment and then spoke, while Lin Yichen's expression also turned serious.
"If I'm not mistaken, the one below should be the Red Stone."
"Red Stone? What exactly is that?"
Chen Guiran had never heard of this before and couldn't help but become curious, while Lin Yichen spoke slowly and deliberately.
"Red stone, that's something related to immortals."
"Immortals? Valley Master, are you joking? How could immortals possibly exist?"
Before Chen Guiran could speak, an A-level ability user said in disbelief, and the people from the Ice and Snow Valley around him also looked incredulous.
"Is it funny? Do you all find it unbelievable?"
Ariel Lin sneered.
"Before the advent of superpowers, could you have imagined that someone could fly through the air and kill people like flies?"
Upon hearing this, the people of Ice and Snow Valley thought about it and realized it made sense, and their breathing became somewhat rapid.
"Valley Master, can the things down there help us become immortals?"
"Become an immortal? You're dreaming. That thing down there only provides warmth. Do you really think it can help us become immortals?"
Lin Yichen shook her head and said, then seemed to remember something and murmured.
"Moreover, given our current situation, our strength may not be weaker than some immortals, so we should be content."
The people of Ice Valley were somewhat disappointed upon hearing this, but since they had all become superhumans, what more could they ask for?
"However, we found a red stone here. It would be best if we could bring it back to Heilongjiang Province, but we don't know how big the red stone is."
Lin Yichen said with a serious expression, "If it's not too big, taking it back to Heilongjiang Province would be the best option."
“I don’t know. My limit is that I can detect the situation within a 10x10 meter radius, but that red stone has exceeded my limit.”
Upon hearing this, Ariel Lin could only abandon the idea of taking the Red Stone back for the time being and turned to look at the rest of the Ice and Snow Valley people.
"Everyone, rest here for a bit and get yourself into top shape. Then I'll leave some people here to set up the Ice Valley branch."
Upon hearing this, the people of Ice and Snow Valley scattered and settled down in various places in the Lin family compound, while Lin Yichen looked at Lin Fan.
"Brother, next I'll have you help Chen Guiran break through to A-level ability, and then have him take Chishi back to the black market."
According to Lin Yichen's estimation, Chen Guiran only needs to break through to A-level to be able to control the Red Stone to fly back to the Black Market. After all, the Red Stone is a mineral, so it's reasonable that Chen Guiran could control it to fly away.
"All right."
Lin Fan reluctantly agreed, even though Lin Yichen was his younger sister.
Chen Guiran, on the other hand, hadn't reacted yet, but once he did, his face was filled with excitement.
"Thank you for your guidance, Valley Master! I will definitely do my best for Ice and Snow Valley!"
"Okay, let's go down first."
Lin Yichen said calmly, and as Chen Guiran was taken away by Lin Fan, Lin Yichen also began to recover her condition, after all, she had also consumed a lot of energy in this battle.
Meanwhile, in the Imperial Capital Palace.
"The Lin family was actually wiped out? They reaped what they sowed. But Lin Yichen and Lin Fan are quite strong; they were even able to kill a Heaven-rank martial artist."
Huang Ziren looked in the direction of the Lin family. Clearly, he had informants watching the Lin family all along, and he received the news the moment the Lin family members were killed.
Then he felt his own power again, which made him feel much more at ease.
"Soon, I'll be able to break through to a level above SSS soon."
After saying that, Huang Ziren's body disappeared into the darkness, while the other zombies, who were underestimated by the group, were constantly evolving.
