Celestial Emperor 2
Ch. 617 - Robbed
There were actually several reasons why a Lotus Cultivator was so valuable in this place. Aside from having the vast Lotus Island to store items, the Lotus Cultivator also possessed the Energy of Chaos.
In this Tortoise God Territory Mine, a Meridian Cultivator was unable to move and freely mined the Godly Crystal. It was because their Spiritual Will was not strong enough to penetrate the depths of the ground to search for the existence of the Deity crystal. Even a Golden Immortal like Ou Zhang could only pierce through the ground several tens of meters deep using his Spiritual Will.
In addition, the Spiritual Will of a Lotus Cultivator was much stronger than a Meridian Cultivator. The chaos energy they possessed indirectly increased the strength of their Spiritual Will.
As Qin Shan sent his Spiritual Will into the ground, he could look down hundreds of meters deep. With just a single glance, he had found a pile of low-grade Deity Crystals in a relatively small amount.
Qin Shan who was aware of this looked a little surprised. Crystal Deity should be quite rare in this place, even in Area B1 though. However, in just one go, he had already found nearly a hundred pieces of Deity Crystals!Qin Shan glanced at his other comrades and did not intend to tell them regarding what he had just witnessed at this moment.
Qin Shan's comrades already knew the fact that he was a Lotus Cultivator, but they did not know his strength well. There would be a great uproar when they learned that Qin Shan's Spiritual Will could penetrate into the ground by hundreds of meters.
“Hua Xinglun told me that I would not be able to destroy the land in this place just by using Elemental Energy.” Qin Shan muttered and he secretly gathered a certain amount of Elemental Energy in his hand and threw it on the ground.
*bomm!* A small explosion occurred. However, there was no sign that the ground had exploded. It seemed that he really had to rely on a silver shovel to mine.
Qin Shan first glanced around him and started to quickly dig down. He was quite surprised when he realized that shoveling this land would be as easy as splitting tofu. It seemed like this silver shovel was indeed designed specifically for mining Deity Crystals.
For now Qin Shan did not want to attract attention by directly digging up to hundreds of meters underground. He only dug a few tens of meters deep and started mining the Deity Crystals that were inside there.
With his current ability, Qin Shan only took less than half a day to gather several hundred low-grade Deity Crystals.
Qin Shan had already tried his best to look inconspicuous in front of his comrades, but still they had all become extremely shocked upon seeing the Godly Crystals that Qin Shan had obtained in large numbers. Even during this time alone, they were all only able to gather less than a hundred Godly Crystals. It was only at this moment that they finally found out the reason why Qin Shan was directly placed in Area B1.
“If this continues, I'm sure you won't think too much about the matter regarding the monthly deposit and Glimpsing Age.” Pill Liu Wuzhao told Qin Shan as they all started to rest.
They were a Golden Immortal who basically had very much Elemental Energy. However, the job of mining these Godly Crystals was even more exhausting than doing a fierce battle for quite some time. That's because the silver shovel consumes too much energy each time it is used to shovel the ground.
Even Qin Shan who had far more Elemental Energy than his other comrades, felt quite exhausted after mining for half a day. However, he is quite happy with the results he is getting now.
They all continued mining the Deity Crystals for a few more days until they finally decided to stop and return to the campsite.
After mining for an entire week, Qin Shan managed to obtain close to ten thousand low-grade Deity Crystals. Meanwhile, his other comrades only got a few thousand, even then the effort they spent was far more than Qin Shan.
Right now, Qin Shan and the others were on their way back towards the encampment in Area B1. However, in the middle of their journey they are shocked by some strangers blocking their way. At a glance, they all knew that these people did not have good intentions.
“Who are those people?” Qin Shan asked curiously and his feelings became uneasy.
“They are people from other Areas infiltrating Area B1. Their goal is clear, which is to seize the Crystal of Deity that we have obtained.” explained Chu Liyan who is a young woman in white robes.
The people blocking their path numbered around five people, and they were all quite powerful Level 2 Golden Immortal. Qin Shan and his comrades only numbered four people and their strength was slightly below these strangers, this was why they became extremely wary.
Qin Shan who heard this could only snort coldly and stare ahead with a scornful look. He had heard from Hua Xinglun some time before that robberies were commonplace in this place. In addition, there is unhealthy competition between Area B1 and other areas, so the percentage of robberies will be higher.
“You know what to do.” a black-robed man from the robber group said and told his members to attack Qin Shan's group and snatch their storage ring containing the Deity Crystal.
When a robbery occurs, no one can negotiate or stay silent. They all had to fight to take or defend what was supposed to be his.
A sword silhouette appeared in the air as a black-robed man from the group of robbers started attacking with full force towards Ye Zhan. Ye Zhan responded to this attack by throwing his silver shovel forward thus making the attack directed at him crumble into an explosion of Elemental Energy in the air. After which, Ye Zhan counterattacked using his long spear and thrust millions of spear beams towards the black-robed man who had just attacked him.
On the other hand, the current Chu Liyan was also fighting quite fiercely against a level 2 Golden Immortal just like her. Chu Liyan was a cultivator who focused her Daonya on speed and agility, so that she could dodge the attacks that came at her quite easily.
Then, Liu Wuzhao himself fought two Level 2 Golden Immortal people at once. Amongst everyone, Liu Wuzhao was the strongest, so it was no wonder the robbers would put in too much effort to overcome Liu Wuzhao.
Meanwhile, Qin Shan was currently dealing with a level 2 Golden Immortal who was the weakest member of the robbers. Nevertheless, he should not be careless in the slightest. After all this was a very different world compared to the Three Realm where he came from.
Even though their cultivation base was the same, their strength would definitely not be comparable. Qin Shan knew of this with certainty as he fought Ou Zhang in a short period of time a short time ago. A Golden Immortal in this place possessed incredible strength despite being only one level apart from his opponent.
“A Venerable Immortal ant turned out to dare to come to this place. You are looking to die.” said the black-robed man while laughing coldly towards Qin Shan.
Qin Shan of course heard this and secretly made him a little angry. This fellow had not even received a single attack from him, but he had even underestimated him. It seems like this kind of person really should be taught a little lesson.
