“He’s someone we can’t afford to mess with,” Jiang Yunhe sighed.
“But he already knows we’ve obtained the jade token. We can’t just let him do whatever he wants to us, can we?” Jiang Wang said, frowning.
"Hehe, don't worry, he wouldn't dare leak this information. If he did, he would be doomed anyway. Besides, there are only a handful of people in the world who know that we obtained the jade tablet. It's impossible for him to find stronger helpers to take revenge," Jiang Yunhe said confidently.
Jiang Wang nodded, then said, "Then don't we have to continue hunting the Demon Dragon Lizard?"
“I have already sent people to inform the clan chief and the others that as soon as they arrive on this island, they must rescue us. We don’t need to worry about our safety for the time being,” Jiang Yunhe said.
"Let's heal our wounds first!"
Jiang Wang nodded, then sat down on the ground and began to close his eyes to rest.
"This kid is really good; he even knows how to hide his cultivation level."
Jiang Yunhe glanced at Jiang Wang, then muttered to himself.
Xiao Lingyu was nearby, so he could naturally hear Jiang Yunhe's words.
"I've really been ripped off this time. Not only did I lose eight magic spirits, but I also lost five magic spirit artifacts."
After sighing inwardly, Xiao Lingyu sat down on the ground beside him and closed his eyes to rest.
After resting for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Jiang Wang opened his eyes and said, "Father, let's go."
"good!"
Jiang Yunhe responded, and then he and Jiang Wang leaped out of the cave together.
Leaping out of the cave entrance, Jiang Yunhe's speed increased dramatically, and he appeared at the cave entrance in the blink of an eye.
The two stood side by side, both looking up at the sky.
"Father, where are we going?" Jiang Wang asked.
"Have you forgotten why we came here?" Jiang Yunhe asked.
“We’re here to hunt the Demon Dragon Lizard,” Jiang Wang said.
"Yes, we came here to hunt the Demon Dragon Lizard. Did you think we were here to find the Xuanming Demon Crystal?" Jiang Yunhe said with a sneer.
"Uh—isn't that right?" Jiang Wang asked doubtfully.
"Do you think we can find the Xuanming Demon Crystal?" Jiang Yunhe asked in return.
"No... then what is Father doing bringing his child here?" Jiang Wang asked in surprise.
“This area is the core of our Jiang clan, and it contains a large number of magic crystals. Do you think there might be a Xuanming magic crystal mine here?” Jiang Yunhe asked solemnly.
"What? There's a Xuanming Demon Crystal vein here? Father, you're not lying to me, are you?"
Jiang Wang exclaimed in surprise, his face immediately lighting up with ecstasy. He shouted excitedly, "Haha, that's great! As long as we find a Xuanming Demon Crystal vein, our strength will definitely skyrocket!"
"Let's go and investigate quickly, so we don't miss anything."
Excited, Jiang Yunhe immediately activated his flying artifact and rode his flying sword at high speed forward.
Although Jiang Wang did not activate his flying artifact, he sped through the void at high speed, which was no less impressive than that of an ordinary Immortal King.
Jiang Yunhe and Jiang Wang were roughly equal in strength. Jiang Wang possessed the cultivation of the Xuanwu Realm, and coupled with his special physique, his speed was no less than that of an ordinary Immortal King Realm expert.
Soon after, Jiang Yunhe brought Jiang Wang to a spacious and flat grassland.
"Father, how is it? Is there a magic crystal hidden in this meadow?" Jiang Wang asked impatiently.
"Don't rush, let's take it slow," Jiang Yunhe said with a smile, then waved his hand and released two balls of flame.
The fireball flew swiftly and crashed into the ground, instantly creating two huge craters.
“The soil here contains demonic energy, and I suspect there must be magic crystals inside,” Jiang Yunhe said with considerable confidence.
"Father is indeed amazing; he can even deduce the properties of the soil," Jiang Wang praised.
"There is indeed a Xuanming Demon Crystal vein here, but it is not the whole vein, only a branch."
After looking around, Jiang Yunhe said, "The environment here is nice and suitable for cultivation. I plan to set up an array here and then take out the magic crystals. The quality of the magic crystals here is definitely not low, worth tens of millions of high-grade magic stones, or even more."
"Are we going to mine the Xuanming Demon Crystal?" Jiang Wang asked, frowning.
"Of course, we not only need to excavate, but we also need to complete it as soon as possible, lest someone else take advantage of it," Jiang Yunhe said.
"But we don't have that many tools, and our storage magic treasures don't allow us to bring in too many things," Jiang Wang said with a troubled expression.
“Give me your storage ring, and I’ll take you digging,” Jiang Yunhe said.
"good!"
Jiang Wang was quite decisive and immediately removed a storage ring from his hand.
After accepting the storage ring, Jiang Yunhe took out a golden spear.
The spear was ten feet long and about three feet wide, with a purplish-gold luster that shimmered with dazzling light.
This spear is named 'Crimson Sky'. It is a low-grade divine weapon with considerable power and is also Jiang Yunhe's personal weapon.
As soon as the Crimson Sky Spear was unleashed, it emitted a terrifying and ferocious aura, causing the monsters on the nearby islands to tremble in fear.
Jiang Yunhe thrust his spear forward, unleashing a dazzling burst of light.
Pshaw!
A long spear pierced through a mountain peak in an instant, then sank downwards with a thunderous roar, causing the mountain's interior to explode and lava to spill out.
Jiang Yunhe pulled hard with one arm and yanked the Crimson Sky Spear out.
At this moment, the Crimson Sky Spear had turned completely red.
Under Jiang Wang's astonished gaze, Jiang Yunhe stomped his feet on the ground and transformed into a streak of light, rushing into the gap in the mountain wall.
Jiang Wang hesitated for a moment before following him inside.
Inside the mountain, all was dark, but in the very center of the rock wall were two fist-sized luminous pearls, illuminating a radius of a hundred meters around them and also illuminating some small objects on the ground.
Jiang Yunhe and Jiang Wang examined the two luminous pearls carefully for a moment, then squatted down next to them.
They were two palm-sized, blood-red crystals with veins floating on their surface.
"Father, do you recognize these two types of magic crystals?" Jiang Wang asked.
“Yes, these two blood-red magic crystals should be ninth-tier magic crystals called ‘Blood Fiend Magic Crystals,’ which are twice as expensive as seventh-tier magic crystals,” Jiang Yunhe said.
"So it's a Blood Fiend Crystal." Jiang Wang said, suddenly reaching out and grabbing the Blood Fiend Crystal, then activating his Devouring Power.
Jiang Wang's cultivation technique, "Chaos Overlord Technique," has the characteristic of absorbing demonic power from the demon realm for his own use, a fact that Jiang Yunhe already knew.
As the power of devouring surged in, the Blood Fiend Crystal in Jiang Wang's hand quickly shrank, eventually becoming the size of an infant's fist.
Jiang Wang tossed it directly to Jiang Yunhe, saying, "Here you go, Father, you can have it."
Jiang Yunhe shook his head and said, "I still need this Blood Fiend Crystal to improve my cultivation for now. You can keep it for your own cultivation."
