Walker Of The Worlds-Novel

Chapter 1056 Three Spirit Stone Mines

Wading through the solid rock, Lin Mu finally entered the area that was the greatest treasure of the West Ocean sect, the three spirit stone mines!

~shua~

Lin Mu left the ground and could breathe in dry air again.

The entire area was filled with spirit stones and various crystals embed in the ground and the ceiling. There wasn't even a clear place to walk and one would feel afraid to damage the spirit stones.

Lin Mu looked around and scanned the area, finding that this spirit stone mine was certainly many times bigger than the one he had excavated with Jing Luo in the past. And this was simply one of the three.

Currently, Lin Mu had no information about this place or what this place held. But that could be solved easily if he found the right person.

"Hmm… there are actually people here." Lin Mu sensed the presence of others.

There were nearly forty people in this mine, but they were beyond several walls made of solid spirit stone. Lin Mu was actually in the very depths of the mine where no one had ever gone.

It was like the empty space inside a geode and was blocked by all sides. If not for Phase, Lin Mu would not be able to enter this place easily. At least not without breaking the walls.

"Since they are in here, they should have a better idea… at least have maps for the mine and a bit more information." Lin Mu muttered and disappeared.

Blinking several times in a row and using phase to traverse the walls, Lin Mu finally appeared in a chamber that was mostly mined out. There were barely any spirit stones left here and only a few isolated segments were left, which would probably be mined out later too.

Lin Mu observed using his spirit sense and saw that the people here were not weak at all.

"They aren't from the sect… that muddy aura… Gu Legion here too? No, wait… they have probably inflated their power with the pills of grace." Lin Mu guessed.

Having found out about this, Lin Mu didn't care for them anymore.

Appearing behind a man, Lin Mu stabbed out with his short sword, piercing the man's skull. A stream of spirit Qi also spread through the man, breaking his nascent soul along with it. The others didn't even sense the anomaly, letting Lin Mu continue his work.

One by one, the number of cultivators starting decreasing.

"Guo Min! Guo Min! Look, I found an Aquamarine Spirit jade!" One of the cultivators suddenly shouted.

He held a small crystal in his hand that shone in a blue light. It was barely the size of a fingernail but still looked rather brilliant.

"Guo Min?" The man said again, not hearing any response from his companion. "Huh?" looking around, he didn't see any of his companions there.

The mining area was separated into several smaller chambers and he was in one of the middle ones. There were about three more people with him, but they were not there anymore.

"Where did they go?" The man wondered and walked to the entrance of the next chamber.

But as soon as he peeked into it, he saw a stunning scene.

"WHAT!?" in front of him, one of his companions was being stabbed.

~shing~

The edge of the short sword reflected the light from the floating lamps and created a stunning contrast with the blood on it. Holding the sword was none other than Lin Mu, his expression still.

He looked at the man who had just appeared, without caring that he had been found.

"Who are you!?" The man questioned. "No, how did you get in here?"

Several questions popped up in the man's head. He couldn't understand how someone could enter a high security area like this. Even the people of the west ocean sect didn't know about it other than a few.

Even they were only allowed in here after they used special contracts to bond their lives. Without that they would have never been allowed in here.

Unfortunately for the man, his questions were not going to be answered.

~shua~

Lin Mu disappeared and reappeared right in front of him.

~CRACK~

A fist hit his chest, directly breaking through the flesh and bone, before piercing out the back.

~cough~

~splat~

Copious amounts of blood spilled from his chest and mouth as the man tried to come to terms with his situation.

~shua~

Lin Mu released some flames that burned the insides of the man's body while also eradicating his Nascent soul. He could never let them escape.

Storing the body into the ring, Lin Mu checked all the items he had gained. With just a thought, all the spatial storage treasures and other items these men were using were summoned in front of Lin Mu.

He looked through them and quickly found the information he was looking for.

"I see… out of the three mines. One is a peak grade spirit stone mine and the other two high grade mines. The west ocean sect had barely used ten percent of the first mine and only when Gu Yao arrived did he start to use more of them.

So the west ocean sect has been a major source of spirit stones for him, huh…" Lin Mu read though the manifests and directives the men had.

All of them were at the Nascent soul realm and were given orders to mine for spirit stones. They were also not from the Gu Legion and were truly disciples of the West ocean sect. But they had been given pills of grace to increase their cultivation base forcefully.

And since they were disciples who weren't as talented and were stuck at the core condensation realm for a long time, they gladly accepted it while also binding themselves to a contract.

With this assurance, they were made to mine in the spirit stone mines.

"The more pain for Gu Yao, the better…" Lin Mu stated before starting his work.

Meld!
