Among the tribes who come to mine in this mine, there are actually only a few who are guided by mining masters. They are such noble characters. Their tribe does not have the financial resources to support them, so they can only make do with some mining apprentices to help.
However, the gap between a mining apprentice and a mining master cannot be measured by reason. Even among thousands of mining apprentices, not one of them may become a mining master in their lifetime.
"Now the group of mine thieves who first spread the news have been detained by many tribes and are being tortured. I think it won't be long before we can track down the culprits behind the scenes. So don't waste your time. No strange stones have been unearthed. Everything is gone. It's a dark conspiracy." The leader of the tree people's absenteeism finally added. After saying so much, he also hoped that Shen Chen and the others would leave so that they would not waste energy.
Shen Chen was noncommittal and continued to ask something, "Were there any large formations or large-scale murderous weapons in the place where the terrible killings occurred?"
"Isn't that true?" The absentee leader glanced at him and said with a smile: "But young people, you must know that many things in the divine world are unpredictable. Those who dare to do harm must have a sure-fire secret method. Without these, It doesn’t mean anything.”
"Well, you're right. Thank you for informing me." Shen Chen smiled, and then asked awkwardly: "How to get to that place?"
A group of tree people were absent from work and were astonished. What a waste of words and emotions. After saying so much, this human boy still wants to go?
Nishizawa and Amu didn't say anything, but in fact they also wanted to take a look.
"Well, it's no big deal if you go and take a look. Now, the crisis has been resolved there, and it's still a barren land."
Shen Chen and the others were determined to go, and the absentee leader would naturally not refuse to show them the way. He immediately used a piece of blank tree bark to carve some information into it, which contained a clear route to that barren land.
"Brother Shen, is there really any treasure there?" Amu asked hesitantly along the way.
"Let's go take a look." Shen Chen said with a smile.
Deep in the mine, this area is very desolate and barren, surrounded by bare rocks.
Those tree people described this place as a barren land, which was quite appropriate, but now, there is a light brownish red layer in the black soil here.
That was dried blood, recording that a terrible scene had happened here not long ago. The bodies of the deceased had been taken away by the tribesmen, and the blood was left here.
When Shen Chen and the other four came over, they couldn't help but frown. The area around here had been dug up very seriously.
Just as those tree people who were absent from work just said, although a terrible incident happened that night, after the crisis was resolved, many people still came and turned the place upside down.
Now that they're here, it's obviously hard to gain anything.
Shen Chen let the green girl feel it for a while, and after confirming that there was no danger, he led the three of them towards the deep pit in the low-lying area.
Amu took out a disc, injected it with divine power, and carefully sensed it.
That thing is used to sense divine objects, and is especially sensitive to divine minerals. However, it is obviously impossible to gain anything.
Such an artifact has many shortcomings. It can only be sensed by some ores that clearly exude divine fluctuations. However, during the mining process, this is often inaccurate and can only be used as an auxiliary. The key is to see Those who are proficient in mineral deposit magic use various means to deduce.
"There's no sense at all. There's not even metal fluctuations here. It's really barren." Amu then smiled bitterly, feeling a little embarrassed.
Shen Chen squatted in the pit, looking thoughtful. He was asking about the situation. Now, he had no way to find clues.
"Give me five million divine walls." Gu Jing said lightly.
Now, it has not yet recovered its vitality and can only exert some divine power by consuming a large amount of these things. The same situation also happened when Shen Chen went to the Yaochi Holy Land.
"Yeah." Shen Chen nodded.
After absorbing five million divine walls, the ancient mirror glowed warmly, and the light erupted along Shen Chen's fingers.
At the reminder of the ancient mirror, Shen Chen began to gently move his fingertips in the soil, sensing the faint changes.
"Come back to the Ten Thousand Divine Walls again." But he didn't expect it. After a moment, Gu Jing suddenly spoke again.
"So many?" Shen Chen was shocked. Of course, he was not reluctant to part with it, but a little incredible.
"It seems that there is something really wrong. I need to increase my efforts and awaken the imprint of the Heavenly Book in your body at the same time to find the root cause together." Gu Jing explained this way.
"Okay." Shen Chen did as he was told without hesitation, his eyes shining brightly. Gu Jing's request instantly made him look forward to it, but he was also very nervous.
Fifteen million divine walls are definitely a huge number. If Amu and Nishizawa knew his current consumption, they would probably be shocked and speechless.
It would be really shocking if nothing comes out of such a huge effort.
Moreover, there are not many divine walls left in Shen Chen. He had previously provided help to the Zhuxi Tribe and the Bangor Chief Tribe, which consumed a lot of them.
Seeing Shen Chen's fingers emitting a mysterious light, Amu and Xize were both surprised. However, after Qiong Xi's reminder, they did not make any noise and waited expectantly for the situation.
Soon after, Shen Chen stood up slowly with a serious heart.
Whoosh!
At this time, on the slope, there were more than a dozen figures with evil expressions, flying down suddenly.
Those people all had ferocious auras and were creatures of several races. They stared coldly at Shen Chen, as if they had been lying in wait nearby for a long time.
The leading dog man licked his mouth and asked coldly: "Boy, what did you find?"
Qiong Xi, Xize, and Amu changed their colors. It seemed that these guys had been hiding in the dark, waiting for them to gain something, and then take the opportunity to rob them.
Needless to say, these must be wandering bandits who specialize in stealing mines or even robbing other people's harvests.
Shen Chen glanced at these bandits lightly and said, "What do you think I can gain?"
"Boy, what kind of attitude do you have, how dare you talk to our boss like this." Several bandits around him shouted, all of them were fierce and dissatisfied with Shen Chen's cold tone.
Qiong Xi, Xize, and Amu also had their eyes beating with anger, ready to take action at any time.
However, the leader of the dog-human bandits, after staring at Shen Chen and the four others for a while, raised his hand to stop the movements of his subordinates, shook his head and said: "Since we didn't find anything, forget it, let's go."
This group of bandits quickly disappeared and left in a hurry. Shen Chen glanced in that direction and without saying a word, he waved to Qiong Xi and the others and said, "Let's leave too. Staying here is too conspicuous."
"You're going back now?" Amu and Nishizawa were shocked, and suddenly felt a little disappointed. It turned out that Brother Shen didn't notice any difference, so their trip was really in vain.
"Haha." Shen Chen smiled but said nothing.
After they left, the bandits actually didn't go far. They hid in a jungle on a nearby mine, staring at the pit with cold eyes.
"Boss, that kid just made rude remarks, why don't you deal with it on the spot?" A cat-man monster shouted, with a cold glow in the cave in his eyes.
"It's not necessary. That guy seems to know how to track rare minerals. If he finds something, he will come back again. If he really finds something valuable by then, it won't be too late for us to take action." The dog-man leader shook his head, pondering. sneer.
Dwarf tribe, in the wooden house.
In the dead of night, Shen Chen asked Green Girl to sense her surroundings and make sure that no one was watching, then she calmed down and communicated with the ancient mirror.
"Is there really immortality?" Shen Chen secretly asked in shock.
He was eager to leave before, mainly because Gu Jing discovered some clues and reminded him that he could not stay there for a long time. In addition, someone was secretly monitoring the pit closely, and Gu Jing also noticed it. If they stayed too long, it would definitely arouse suspicion.
"Well, there is indeed a trace of immortality fluctuations, although it is very obscure." Gu Jing confirmed: "This matter is not simple. Someone has indeed tampered with it, but it is not the same thing as what you heard before."
"What's going on?" Shen Chen said excitedly. Immortal fluctuations are usually related to immortal objects. If it is really an immortal object, it would be too coveted.
"There is no formation or any trace of the killing weapon. The source of the killing is more like a naturally evolved killing situation." Gu Jing judged.
"A naturally evolving killing situation..." Shen Chen felt awe-struck. He had had this suspicion before, but he just never argued with those tree people who were absent from work.
Immediately, Shen Chen was a little puzzled and said: "How could the perfectly good Zichen sky phenomenon turn into a murderous situation?"
According to the information he had read in the strange book before, although the Zichen celestial phenomenon is mysterious and unpredictable, it is not capable of killing, unless someone interferes with it and changes some of the fortune of the celestial phenomenon.
But it's too difficult. It can't be done simply by having strong cultivation. Among the people Shen Chen knows so far, his fairy sister should be the only one who has this kind of ability.
Gu Jing pondered for a moment and said: "Judging from the obscure traces there, the problems that occurred in the Zichen celestial phenomenon at that time may have been forcibly blocked by someone, and once such things are forcibly interfered, changes will inevitably occur. , it is not impossible that a killing situation is brewing. Maybe the person who took action did not intend to kill those people."
Shen Chen took a breath, and as expected, he had another hidden agenda, and Gu Jing's conjecture gave him a chill down his spine.
Such a big gesture is definitely not something that the tribes nearby would call it. Even in the big forest, there are probably not many tribes that have such confidence.
This can't help but make people feel that there seems to be a terrifying existence behind this matter, leading everything. His pursuit now seems like a moth to the flame. No wonder Gu Jing just reminded him to leave quickly, and after leaving, he quietly erased them Mark of.
But in this way, it becomes more and more clear that the flying stone does not seem to be groundless.
This made Shen Chen feel itchy. On the one hand, his reason told him that this was a big fire pit. If he didn't handle it well, it would attract beings that he couldn't deal with. However, if there really was a fairy buried in that place, let him go and call people. It's hard to give up.
"Gu Jing, if we take action, are there any chances to succeed?" Shen Chen asked in a low voice.
This time, Gu Jing didn't reply for a long time, and seemed to be thinking carefully. This made Shen Chen feel anxious, but he didn't say anything more, but waited for Gu Jing's judgment.
If it really doesn't work, then just forget it.
"It's a bit risky, and it may not work, but you can try it." After a long silence, Gu Jing said this and told Shen Chen some good news.
Shen Chen was excited and quickly asked: "What should I do?"
"If the immortal object is really unearthed, it must be related to the celestial phenomenon that night. Ordinary excavation and search methods are useless. We can only follow the gourd's example and reenact that celestial phenomenon." Gu Jing said in astonishment.
"Is it really possible to perform Zi Chen's celestial phenomena again?" Shen Chen was extremely shocked. If Han Yan's master was here, it might still be possible, but now, they are really limited in what they can do.
"We definitely can't do it on a large scale. We can only try it on a small scale. You follow my request and collect some materials." Gu Jing told him.
