The location of the divine vein was very remote. Jiang Yuan followed Yu Feng for more than ten minutes before arriving at a deep valley that was more than ten meters deep in the ground.
Jiang Yuan muttered, "You're not planning to take me to some remote mountain forest to dispose of the body, are you?!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Feng's face turned bitter. He said seriously, "Brother Qingmu is joking. You are now the vice president of the Fengyun Society, so you are my brother. I, Yu Feng, would never play tricks on my brothers. You can find out for yourself if you ask around in Ancheng!"
"Then why is this divine vein so remote?" Jiang Yuan rarely saw a basin with such terrain, and judging from the situation, the current dozen meters or so were far from the end.
"Because this divine vein occasionally spews out malevolent energy, we specifically moved the newborns to other places to prevent them from being corrupted by the malevolent energy! Moreover, I always feel that there is some danger down here, so I also suggest that everyone stay away from this place!" Yu Feng explained.
"Is someone ahead?"
Jiang Yuan suddenly felt a tremor within his body; it was the movement originating from the location where the Hand of Death controlled his talent.
"Oh, they're from the Academy of Science and Technology. They said they're here to collect rock samples to analyze the geological conditions near the divine vein. But it's nothing special. After all, people with lower cultivation levels can't get in. Even if they analyze the geology of the entire area near the divine vein, it won't help. It'll just be a waste of time!" Yu Feng saw things very clearly.
"What's going on? Why is the Grim Reaper's Hand reacting?!"
Jiang Yuan wasn't listening to Yu Feng at all. The only things that could make the Hand of Death react were the few talents he retained within him, and the higher the talent level, the more likely the Hand of Death would react.
"President Yu, what brings you here?"
As Jiang Yuan and Yu Feng approached, they encountered two people wearing thick leather armor. The armor looked very familiar; it was the same people who had helped him escape when he was intercepted by the beastmen earlier that day.
"Just the two of you?" Yu Feng saw that the two of them still had some smiles on their faces. Although Yu Feng was a man of the underworld, he had great respect for intellectuals.
"There's no other way. Even if others wear protective suits, they can't walk under the Divine Vein. Only the two of us have the strength of the ninth level of the True Spirit Realm." The woman took off her helmet, revealing her beautiful face. Her fair skin carried a faint scholarly air.
When Jiang Yuan saw the woman's face, he could only marvel at the strangeness of time and fate. This woman, who was only twenty-nine years old, seemed to be Lin Siyin, whom he had saved at Camp 39. He still remembered the other two beasts who were with Lin Siyin at that time. Although he had already executed them on the spot, he still felt angry when he thought about them now.
"It seems that Lin Siyin is the one who caused the Hand of Death to tremble!"
Jiang Yuan already had the answer in his heart. His talent was a fusion of the poison-harmonizing properties of the Heavenly Poison Body, which was why he subconsciously attracted Lin Siyin, who possessed the Heavenly Poison Body, when he encountered her.
There cannot be two kinds of celestial bodies in this world; this is a theorem that cannot be broken.
"President Yu, what are you doing here?" Another person took off his helmet; it was Xie Chuan, who had appeared earlier.
Upon hearing this, Yu Feng explained, "I brought our Fengyun Society's vice president to this divine vein to take a look. Perhaps he can see something that others can't!"
"Vice President?"
Lin Siyin and Xie Chuan both focused their attention on Jiang Yuan. In their eyes, Jiang Yuan was unremarkable, with the face of a middle-aged man, showing no domineering aura whatsoever.
But Lin Siyin's eyes held a hint of doubt. She sensed the Heavenly Poison Body trembling again; this was the second time today.
"You two risked your lives for the Freshman Alliance; it is truly a blessing for the Alliance. On behalf of all the freshmen, I, Aoki, thank you both!" Jiang Yuan said.
"Aoki-kun, you're exaggerating. We just have nothing better to do than give you some help!" Lin Siyin kept scrutinizing the man in front of her, trying to figure out what it was about him that caused her Heavenly Poison Body to react so strongly.
"How's it going inside?" Yu Feng didn't like beating around the bush, so he went straight to asking about the Divine Vein.
Upon hearing Yu Feng's question, both of them looked somewhat uneasy. Xie Chuan said, "No, we can barely go in to what we can see, but there are still places in this divine vein that we can't reach! It's estimated that there are divine blood stones there, but it's very difficult for beings from the Spirit Realm to go down!"
If beings in the Spirit Realm can't descend, then they can only reach the Divine Realm! But this is just a freshman assessment, and it will be very rare for even one or two individuals to emerge from the first or second stage of the Heavenly Spirit Realm, let alone those in the Profound God Realm or even higher stages like the Supreme God Realm and the Transformation God Realm.
"I told you long ago that this divine vein has dried up, but your Natural Alliance from the Academy of Science and Technology just wouldn't believe it!" Yu Feng looked dissatisfied, especially after Jiang Yuan said that the Natural Alliance was a suspect.
"The Natural Alliance has many extraordinary individuals with unique abilities; perhaps they can make different discoveries!" Xie Chuan argued.
"Come on, your Sanhe Guild is sponsored by Sanhe Group, and you couldn't find out, so how could the Natural Alliance find out?" Yu Feng said disdainfully.
"Brother Yu, I want to go inside the Divine Vein to take a look. Do you want to come with me?" Jiang Yuan looked towards the only mine shaft.
Upon hearing this, Yu Feng immediately shook his head and said, "I'm not going. I already have a headache from the evil energy this morning. If I go and get blown into it again, I won't be able to sleep tonight!"
"Is it that serious?" Jiang Yuan frowned slightly. He had encountered mineral gas before, but he had rarely seen one so strong as to threaten a life in the Spirit Realm.
"It's best not to go in if you don't have shield skills or protective clothing!" Lin Siyin warned.
"It's alright, I know what I'm doing!"
Jiang Yuan nodded thoughtfully. He had the Yin-Yang Shield and the Ultimate Armor. One was a durable shield, and the other was an energy armor. Both of them had a high degree of immunity to alien auras.
"Brother Aoki, be careful! Just wander around the entrance, don't go any further!" Yu Feng warned.
