Chapter 742: Digging The Mine (Part 3)

He returned to the cave and asked Senior Brother Cao and the others to go over everything that had happened.

They explained every detail, even mentioning that Ruma Yang had come to question Amalia.

Senior Brother Cao had been nearby and overheard everything.

"Ruma Yang went too far. When we leave the secret realm, he definitely won’t let this go," Renshu Chang said, feeling worried.

Ruma Yang would surely report the matter of the Eight Gods Blade to the elders of the Eternal One Sect, but they couldn’t exactly silence him.

Renshu Chang felt uneasy.

"Renshu Chang, since the Eternal One Sect is being so shameless, we don’t need to show them any respect either. When we go to dig up the top-grade spiritual stone mine, let’s make sure to take every last spirit stone and not leave them a single one," Vincent Tan suggested, thinking it was the best way to get back at them.

"Exactly! The only reason they could survive and were able to defeat the devils is because of our junior master uncle and martial aunt. If Ruma Yang wants to repay kindness with enmity, then he can’t blame us for being ruthless," Ding Huiqing added.

Renshu Chang was momentarily surprised, but then a smile flickered in his eyes.

He had thought Ding Huiqing didn’t like their junior master uncle and martial aunt, but it turned out he was willing to stand up for them after all.

After half a day, the noise outside started to quiet down.

Renshu Chang immediately led everyone to find the top-grade spiritual stone mine.

On the way, they encountered a few demonic beasts that had strayed from the main group.

Even some powerful demonic beasts at the peak of the Golden Core stage were easily dealt with by Renshu Chang.

"Renshu Chang, are you about to break through?" Senior Brother Cao was the first to notice something different, even though the others hadn’t felt it yet.

If these demonic beasts weren’t frenzied, Senior Brother Cao wouldn’t have said anything, since Renshu Chang was already strong.

But the fact that these demonic beasts were frenzied, with their strength doubled, and Renshu Chang could still defeat them easily meant he might be close to a breakthrough.

"Yeah, if all goes well," Renshu Chang nodded.

The resources in the Double Cavern Secret Realm were incredibly rich, and everyone had gained something during their time there, including him.

Everyone was thrilled to hear this.

If Renshu Chang could break through in the secret realm, he might become the only Nascent Soul stage cultivator there.

That would mean they wouldn’t have to run away in fear if they encountered a Nascent Soul stage demonic beast.

"But don’t get too excited just yet," Renshu Chang warned, "Breaking through is not an easy thing, especially in a secret realm."

He didn’t want them to become overconfident and accidentally provoke a Nascent Soul stage demonic beast, which he couldn’t handle alone.

While he could trust some of them, he still had doubts about Vincent Tan and Ding Huiqing, as they might cause trouble if not careful.

"Right, we should find a safe place before you try to break through," Senior Brother Cao agreed.

Advancing from the Golden Core to the Nascent Soul stage was much harder than forming a core, and it required someone to protect the process.

Without proper protection, a mistake could be disastrous.

Vincent Tan suddenly suggested, "We could ask our junior master uncle and martial aunt for help. They’re strong and could protect Renshu Chang during his breakthrough."

"Then you go ask them," Ding Huiqing said.

Before he could even picture that scene in his mind, Vincent Tan quickly shook his head, "I’m not going."

Ding Huiqing looked at him, puzzled.

"Let’s talk about the breakthrough later. Right now, the priority is the top-grade spiritual stone mine," Renshu Chang interrupted.

He wasn’t ready to ask their junior master uncle and martial aunt for protection just yet.

The group soon arrived near the top-grade spiritual stone mine.

After the rampage of the demonic beast army, the place was a mess.

Many people had been scattered, including members of the Eternal One Sect and the Divine Maiden Sect.

No one knew where they had gone, but they would likely return here eventually.

After finding the location of the top-grade spiritual stone mine, Renshu Chang started instructing everyone to dig.

"I found it!"

Vincent Tan excitedly shouted.

She had randomly chosen a spot and ended up being the first to uncover a spirit stone.

Renshu Chang walked over and immediately said, "It really is a top-grade spiritual stone mine."

"But isn’t this just a high-grade spirit stone?" Vincent Tan asked curiously.

"Only a top-grade spiritual stone mine would have its outer layers wrapped in high-grade spirit stones," Renshu Chang explained, "In a top-grade spiritual stone mine, it’s impossible for every part of it to be top-grade spirit stone. Some areas will have weaker spiritual energy."

"Since we’ve found it, let’s dig faster," Renshu Chang continued, "It may take some time for other sects to arrive, so we should dig up as much as we can."

Half an hour after he said that a second group arrived.

But it wasn’t the Eternal One Sect or Divine Maiden Sect as they had expected—it was Amalia and Kenny Lin.

Renshu Chang immediately stopped what he was doing. "How did you come back so soon? Is everything done?"

Amalia shook her head, "No."

The disciples of the Eternal One Sect had been scattered by the demonic beast army, leaving traces of beasts everywhere.

Ruma Yang wasn’t with the rest of the Eternal One Sect disciples, and the trail they followed suddenly ended.

When Amalia found Kenny Lin, he was standing at the spot where the trail had disappeared, deep in thought.

With no other leads, they decided to give up for now.

As long as the top-grade spiritual stone mine was still there, they would meet again sooner or later.

Renshu Chang didn’t ask further questions and instead reported on the state of the spiritual stone mine to them.
