Chapter 706: Forced to exploit the ores
Translator: Sigma Editor: Hitesh
Shi Yan?s team grimaced, but they didn?t dare to act rashly. They were discreetly careful, and their hearts seemed to be hung loose. They had to take notice of the seven people in front of them.
Even Jie Ji, who was always crazy and bold, was calm at this moment. He didn?t dare to talk anything offensive.
Everybody could see the gap between their powers. Only their King God Realm leader was enough to kill Shi Yan?s team. They had no way to resist in this case.
Shi Yan mused. He felt a big pressure as he suddenly recognized that it wasn?t easy to live in the outer space. Moving back and forth in outer space without being affected by the energy storm proved that the others weren?t weak at all.
Zenith had the highest realm among them, but he didn?t dare to resist when the other snatched his Yin Written Charm Scripture. Apparently, he understood their current situation well.
While they kept silent, the seven people on the other side were also quiet, as though they were considering what to do with them.
Anmou, the leader, frowned. His gloomy eyes raked through Shi Yan?s team. After a long time, he said, “Decca, give each of them a piece of low-quality Divine Crystal. Let them restore their state, then make them exploit the ores for us.”
The Dark Spirit Clan?s young man, who took the Yin Written Charm Scripture, grinned and answered, “Master Anmou, don?t worry. I?ll keep an eye on them.”
Anmou nodded, talking to Bao Ao and Shi Yan. “Help us exploit this mine; I will consider giving you a way to survive. Yeah, we will see your performance. You guys should seize the chance to live for yourself.”
Then, Anmou turned around and walked to the cave. The five peculiar beasts roared and then followed him like sharp drills.
Right after that, cracking and grinding noises came from the caves. It seemed they were breaking and grinding big stones.
The five experts of the Dark Spirit Clan, Human Clan, and the Ghost Mark Clan scanned Shi Yan?s team with a cold face. Then, they followed Anmou and got back deep inside the meteorolite.
The Dark Spirit Clan?s young man called Decca grinned after the others had left. Eight thumb-sized black crystals emerged from the ring on his finger. They looked like black glass, with enormous energy moving inside. From his hand, the eight crystals flew out, falling towards each member of Shi Yan?s group respectively.
Shi Yan frowned, snatching the black crystal. He released his Soul Consciousness to sense for a while, and got stunned immediately.
A marvelous kind of energy was moving in the core of this thumb-sized crystal. This energy wasn?t similar to the Essence Crystal in the Grace Mainland, as it could be converted to any energy that was suitable for the users. This feature was strange indeed.
He observed discreetly and found that Bao Ao, Jie Ji, Corpse Chief, and Zenith were both happy and scared at the same time, their eyes complicated.
They had crossed a long way, passing many meteorolites. The energy in their bodies was about to drain, especially Bo Ruo and Gu Da Si. At this moment, they were like the dying oil lamp without any supply. As they were given a crystal containing such massive and marvelous energy, they were overjoyed.
Besides feeling happy, they were also getting more anxious and afraid of this group of strangers.
It was just a low-quality Divine Crystal that was as big as a thumb, but the energy it stored was so intimidating. This showed that not only the others were strong, but they were also filthy rich. It wasn?t easy to shake them.
“You guys should use the Divine Crystals to restore your energy first. Then, you will follow me to take the ores. Don?t resist or annoy us. Or else… Muahaha!” Decca?s threat was obvious. Then, he squinted and sat down cross-legged, took out a fist-sized Divine Crystal, and started to absorb the energy from the stone.
Shi Yan, Bao Ao, and Jie Ji exchanged looks. As they found that they had no choice, they sat down and started to absorb the energy from their small crystals.
It was just a thumb-sized Divine Crystal, but the energy it stored was massive. Shi Yan slightly urged it, and a torrential flow of energy rolled towards him, flooding his Essence Qi ancient tree in his tummy.
Shi Yan?s Soul Consciousness checked the tree and saw the branches, which had been withered, become jade white again, shining with abundant energy.
After around one hour, Shi Yan had restored all the energy he had consumed. His mind, soul, and Qi peaked again.
Among this group, Shi Yan?s realm was the lowest, so the energy he had in the Essence Qi ancient tree was the least. That?s why he was the first one who finished recovering.
Looking at the low-quality Divine Crystal with some remaining energy in his palm, Shi Yan felt odd. He recognized that there were endless mysteries in outer space.
Different from him, Bao Ao and Gu Da Si couldn?t recover that quickly.
Especially Zenith of the Ghost Mark Clan. To him, this low-quality thumb-sized Divine Crystal was just like a grain of salt in the sea. The energy of his Divine Crystal had turned into the Mysterious Yin qi in his body, but it could only make him feel better. He still needed a lot to condense the God Body.
This low-quality Divine Crystal was enough to restore the consumed energy of Gu Da Si and Bo Ruo. To Shi Yan, a warrior at a lower realm, it was a little bit abundant, but to Bao Ao and Kante, whose realms were higher, it wasn?t enough, and it couldn?t restore them to the peak.
Shi Yan quietly observed for a while; he understood what the others had planned.
As Gu Da Si, Bo Ruo, and Shi Yan were at lower realms than the Third Sky of True God Realm, even if they could restore their full energy, they couldn?t cause any threat to Anmou?s team. But Bao Ao, Jie Ji, Kante, and Corpse Chief were at the Peak of True God Realm. If they could recover fully, it would be a problem.
Zenith used to have the cultivation base of King God Realm. If they let him recover to his peak, he would give a big headache to Anmou.
That was why they had given them the low-quality Divine Crystals to hold Zenith and Bao Ao down. They didn?t want to see this group restore to the peak, which would bring them unnecessary problems.
Shi Yan waited for a while. Gu Da Si and Bo Ruo had restored their energy, so their faces looked better. The crystals on their palms had no energy remaining.
Not long after that, Bao Ao and the others had used up their Divine Crystals. They stood up, but they seemed not fully satisfied.
Zenith was the last one who finished. His visage was still grim. He stood up, looking at the young man of his kind with a mournful face. “We are from the same Ghost Mark Clan. Why do you need to make it hard for me?”
Decca laughed evilly, his eyes musing. “At first glance, I knew you?re from the low-level continent. You?re so boring, talking about racism. We don?t talk about races here. Every race is the same. We only consider the realm and powers. We don?t care about races.”
Shi Yan?s eyes brightened. From Decca, he knew the way he had done in the Grace Mainland for every clan to live together in harmony was correct.
“Don?t try to befriend me. Don?t babble either. Work more. You should seize the chance to survive for yourself.” Decca waved his hand, not giving Zenith time to talk more. He continued tenderly. “Master Anmou isn?t an easy person to talk with. He let you live, so don?t mess things up. If you enrage him, muahaha, I think… you will suffer something more grating than death. We, the Troop 17, are kind enough. If you meet the other troops, perhaps you will be killed shortly.”
Then, Decca pointed at a cave under his feet and talked faintly. “Come with me. I will teach you how.” He took the lead and jumped into the cave.
Shi Yan?s team exchanged looks. They shook their heads begrudgingly and followed the young man.
Shortly, they arrived at the core of the meteorolite. They saw one of the beasts of that bizarre kind, which was crushing the rigid stone crazily, digging deeper into the meteorolite.
That beast had a sharp, pointy head, that seemed to be able to break everything, as it had an innate power to crush stones. The way the beast bumped into the stone wall was like someone hitting a block of tofu. It pierced through the wall easily.
Shi Yan?s team became grim.
When they had just arrived at the previous meteorolite, they had tried to dig the stone there. They were surprised to see that Bao Ao and Jie Ji couldn?t even break the stone that easily.
It was only a beast, but it could swagger here and there. The force behind those beasts should be really tremendous.
According to Decca, the seven of them were Troop 17. So, they had at least seventeen troops that came here to exploit ores.
Each troop had many members. If the leaders were all at Anmou?s realm, everyone could imagine how intimidating a force that was.
Everybody felt their hearts getting heavier.
Those beasts continually broke the stone, digging deeper into the thick stone. It stopped from time to time to gather energy, then continued the work.
This stone wall seemed to never end. It had many five-colored spots on the wall, which looked really beautiful. Under the beast?s crazy activity, those five-colored spots cracked. Fingernail-sized pieces of this five-colored material scattered everywhere.
“Look carefully. Use your energy to cover them. Don?t let those small pieces be exposed for too long. Only using power could save them from disappearing.” Decca suddenly shouted. His ten fingers folded and then unfolded. Wisps of light flew out, covering each five-colored stone.
Shi Yan observed and found that those five-colored stones would have light oozing like running sand from its surface. After those light spots fell on the ground, they disappeared instantly.
It seemed like those small pieces couldn?t be exposed for a long time. Otherwise, some special effects in the stones would be drained bit by bit.
“Follow me and use the energy to cover the five-colored Perish Essence, then slowly put them into your Storage Ring,” Decca shouted, his eyes as swift as electricity. He turned, glaring at them coldly. “If you can collect enough five-colored Perish Essence, Master Anmou can let you live. He perhaps will give you more Divine Crystals to recover. Otherwise, you know what would happen.”
As Kante and Zenith heard him, they changed their countenance, quickly following his operation to collect the five-colored stones first.
