Chapter 71: Chapter 71: Everyone Slacking Off, A Sudden Incident

Translator: 549690339

The battle was imminent!

“Disciples of the Misty Sect, prepare your Vitality Bullets and bombard with all your might!” Ye Feng bellowed, appearing exceptionally earnest.

The disciples knew this was the signal for “going through the motions,” so they all unleashed Vitality Bullets, creating a series of air cannons with a mighty roar, but when striking the Earth Frenzied Lizard, not a single scale was knocked off.

“Aim for its eyes, not the back.”

“Watch the back row!”

“Look, it’s exposed its rear, attack!”

Ye Feng’s face turned red from shouting, and he even heaved a huge rock and smashed it towards the beast to show he was working hard indeed.

People from other sects, upon hearing the sky-shaking roar from the Misty Sect and seeing how earnest they looked, immediately thought to themselves how foolish they were for not conserving strength.

That’s right!

All the sects were merely going through the motions as well.

They were all shrewd, understanding the importance of conserving strength.

However, what the disciples of the other sects didn’t know was that the Misty Sect was the champion at going through the motions in the entire field!

Because their output relied solely on shouting!

The Tyrant Blade Grand Elder spotted Ye Feng shouting himself red and the Misty Sect disciples equally straining, and he thought disdainfully:

“Indeed a bunch of fools. Once you’ve exhausted yourselves enough and entered the cave, we’ll torture you slowly.”

…

Boom!

Finally, the Earth Frenzied Lizard toppled under the “minimal effort” siege of the hundreds of cultivators, its life force slowly fading.

It was indeed at the level of a High-rank Demon Soldier, but even with hundreds of cultivators holding back, the force was still terrifying.

Only those in the Element Gathering Realm could remain unharmed in such a confrontation.

“Hahaha, with the Earth Frenzied Lizard taken care of, the biggest threat beneath the cave is gone, we can move the rocks and enter,” laughed the Great Elder of the Feathers Sect.

“Right, how shall we divide the Earth Frenzied Lizard?”

“Its scales are extremely tough, it can be made into superior armor, we can’t waste it.”

Two sect leaders from middle-rank sects hastily spoke up.

The Great Elder of the Feathers Sect pondered for a moment and then said:

“This time, everyone has exerted effort, especially the Misty Sect, which deserves praise. So, how about we distribute the Earth Frenzied Lizard’s scales, claws, teeth, and other useful materials according to the number of people?”

For everyone present, compared to the Spirit Mine, the Earth Frenzied Lizard was just a minor bonus and not worth wasting too much time on, so they agreed.

In less than the time it takes an incense stick to burn, the Earth Frenzied Lizard was completely divvied up, with the Misty Sect receiving an entire claw and ten scales for “exerting the most effort.”

At that moment, the rocks blocking the cave entrance were also cleared.

People swarmed in, fearing they would miss out on the Spirit Mines.

The cave was large and spacious inside, the narrowest part still 10 meters wide and 5 meters high; the environment was fairly dry, with wind blowing through as if connected to a lengthy air vent.

A hundred or so people from a dozen sects entered.

Some had glowing palms, some had shining bald heads, others were radiant all over, and still, others lit torches, brightening the path.

Ye Feng led his disciples, walking at the very end.

But unfortunately, the Tyrant Blade Grand Elder was walking alone right behind them, keeping pace side by side with them, which made Ye Feng a bit uncomfortable. As for the disciples of the Tyrant Blade Sect, they were moving ahead at the front with the Feathers Sect.

Once everyone was inside the cave, a dark shadow appeared at the entrance, letting out a sinister chuckle.

“When you’ve all reached the deepest part, you’ll know what despair is, hahaha!”

…

The cave had no branches and continued to wind downwards, taking everyone about three hundred meters underground.

Suddenly, the way ahead opened up.

Before their eyes lay an enormous underground chamber, about ten meters high and several dozen meters wide, extending for hundreds of meters.

The rocks and ground of this chamber glittered with spiritual light, illuminating the entire space.

“Wow!”

“It’s Jade Ore.”

“There’s Blazing Gold here too.”

“I have quite a bit of Spirit Copper Mine here.”

“The Sect Leader spotted a small amount of lower grade Spirit Stones.”

Over a hundred cultivators arrived at this place and recognized the Spirit Mines around them, all of which were rare materials suitable for refining lower grade Spiritual Artifacts.

“The entire Spirit Mine is worth at least three thousand lower grade Spirit Stones. Even if divided evenly, each sect can make a substantial profit.”

“What are you waiting for? Hurry up and start mining!”

The people from various sects scattered in all directions, seizing the opportunity to mine as much as possible before it was all gone.

Boom!

But just at that moment, the ceiling of the cavern where the Spirit Mine was located suddenly collapsed. Countless giant rocks weighing tens of thousands of pounds fell, followed by streams of quicksand and cold, wet mud.

Fortunately, everyone present was a cultivator with incredibly quick reflexes. They all narrowly dodged, sparing themselves from the eternal embarrassment of “cultivators crushed to death by falling rocks.”

“Run for the exit!”

The Feathers Sect Grand Elder shouted urgently, flying over first.

Clang!

A heavy blade suddenly slashed out from a dark corner, casting a bright ten-meter-long blade light.

The Feathers Sect Grand Elder hurriedly formed a hand seal with one hand, channeling the Protective Spirit Light. Then, he threw a round shield that grew as big as a table, blocking it in front of him.

Clang!

A massive sound exploded, almost piercing everyone’s eardrums.

The Feathers Sect Grand Elder found his shield being cleaved open, his eyelids twitching, but the blade light was stopped, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

However, just then, there was a sudden “thud!”

He looked down to find a heavy blade piercing through his chest. He quickly turned his head to see a two-meter-tall giant stepping on a pair of puppet pig’s legs, his face full of scorn.

“So much for the Feathers Sect Grand Elder,” sneered the Sect Leader of Heixuan Gate.

With a horizontal swipe of the blade, the Feathers Sect Grand Elder was split in two, his life and path extinguished, causing the pupils of the other cultivators who were trying to escape to dilate abruptly.

At that moment, the Tyrant Blade Grand Elder appeared, riding a Mighty Fierce Tiger and coming out of the shadowy corner, holding a long blade high. It was his full-powered strike that forced the Feathers Sect Grand Elder to defend with all his might.

As for the Sect Leader of Heixuan Gate, he was responsible for the backstab.

The two coordinated seamlessly, instantly taking down the Feathers Sect Grand Elder, a Qi Refinement ninth layer peak expert who had cultivated arduously for many years.

“The Great Elder has fallen!”

“It’s the Tyrant Blade Grand Elder and the mysterious person!”

“Bullshit mysterious person, that’s the Sect Leader of Heixuan Gate!”

“We’re finished, it looks like the Tyrant Blade Grand Elder is also an undercover agent for the Demon Race. We’re trapped a hundred meters underground, in grave danger!”

The cultivators from each sect wore faces of horror.

Through the whole ordeal, Ye Feng remained very calm, while the other disciples had already disappeared without a trace.

Above ground.

Mo Ying, Shi Lei, and ten other disciples all appeared.

At the moment of crisis, Ye Feng had them immediately perform the First Grade Spell “Earth Escape” to hide within the earth, thus avoiding the danger.

Li Jiaojiao asked, “Big brother, what should we do next?”

Shi Lei pointed to the entrance of the cavern that had once again been blocked with rocks and said, “Look, the entrance to the cavern has been sealed again. Let’s break it from the outside to allow others to escape.”

“Woooo!”

At that moment, several Middle Rank Demon Soldier Level Netherworld Wolves leaped out from the bushes, attacking upon sight of Mo Ying and the other disciples.

“Vitality Bullet!”

All the disciples performed the ranged Spell simultaneously, blasting to death these Netherworld Wolves that were as good as delivering themselves to their doom.

…

At this moment, three hundred meters underground.

The entire underground cavern had collapsed, and many cultivators were buried beneath the rubble, their fate unknown.

As for Ye Feng, since he had been at the back of the group all along, he was the first to jump into the tunnel and wasn’t buried under the rocks.

By his side, there were a dozen other lucky disciples from various sects.
