I Have A City In An Alternate World - Chapter 1590
1590 The ancient cave (1)
Outside the ancient cave in the back mountain, a trace of anxiety appeared on the faces of the cultivators, and they seemed to be out of their minds.
The lava Dragon that had spewed out earlier had long disappeared. Instead, a Black Mountain peak that was filled with lava appeared near the cliff.
This was perhaps the description of cultivators moving mountains and filling the seas!
Anyone could tell that there must have been some kind of change in the ancient cave. Otherwise, there would not be such a scene of magma spewing out like a spring.
!!
Despite their curiosity, they did not dare to act rashly and could only stomp their feet in anxiety.
This ancient cave in the back mountain was actually a mine in the sect. It produced Special Metals used to make weapons.
If the people in the sect wanted to forge weapons, they would slowly mine here. Once they had gathered enough for themselves, they would immediately give up mining.
The reason for this was that the mining and smelting process was too strenuous, which was simply a torture for the cultivators of the sect.
Therefore, cleaning up the ancient cave in the back mountain had also become one of the means used by the sect to punish disciples who had made mistakes. Anyone who worked here for a period of time would feel that there was no point in living.
The rarer something was, the more valuable it would be. It was precisely because this kind of ore was not easy to mine that its value was also extremely high. Usually, the sect would accumulate some and use it to exchange for urgently needed materials with other sects.
This was a Treasure Mountain that was not easy to gnaw on, but its value was there, and no one could deny it.
But now that the treasure Mountain was constantly decreasing, no one could guarantee that after today’s incident, the ancient cave would still produce that kind of precious ore.
sect leader, we can’t just wait like this. If something happens to the ancient cave, our sect will lose a large amount of income!
An old man next to the sect leader was so anxious that he was scratching his ears and cheeks. He looked at the small mountain of lava, his eyes full of regret.
Only God knew how many Special Metals su huanzhen had obtained. This time, he was probably going to make a lot of money.
An experienced person could tell at a glance that the color of the lava was not right. Only slag that had been tempered and extracted would have such a form.
Such a large-scale smelting and extraction was like snatching their wallets. This feeling was even more uncomfortable than cutting off the flesh of their hearts!
The most frustrating thing was that they couldn’t afford to offend the people in the cave. They could only watch as the other party destroyed things without restraint.
senior brother MA is right. We really can’t just watch like this. We should at least go in and take a look to find out what’s going on.
this is the wealth left behind by our ancestor. We have an obligation to protect it. No matter how strong su huanzhen is, he has to be reasonable. Otherwise, no matter how big the world is, it will be difficult for him to move forward!
“Sect leader, why don’t you call su huanzhen’s master immediately and let him go in to take a look?”
Hearing the discussion of the cultivators around him, the sect leader was also annoyed.
He was afraid of Tang Zhen’s strength, but he was also anxious to know what had happened in the ancient cave. The degree of anxiety he felt far exceeded anyone present.
After hesitating for a while, the sect leader gritted his teeth and said to the cultivators around him, ” “The ancient cave in the back mountain is an inheritance of my sect. Now that something has happened, it is reasonable to investigate it.”
“Now that we all have this idea, let’s go in and have a look. If there are any changes, we can deal with it together!”
hearing the sect leader’s righteous words, the cultivators of the sect secretly rolled their eyes. they thought,”if you want to see it, then go ahead. why do you have to drag us along? we just want you to go up, but we don’t want to go!”
However, since the sect leader’s order had already been given, no one present dared to disobey. They could only brace themselves and follow behind, jumping down from the stone steps to the platform on the cliff top one after another.
They arrived at the entrance of the ancient cave with their hearts in their mouths. The cultivators then realized that the originally blocked interior was now unobstructed, and a dark passage appeared in front of them.
As for su huanzhen, who had entered this place earlier, she had long disappeared without a trace!
Since they had already come up, there was no reason for them to retreat. Furthermore, everyone was extremely curious about the depths of the ancient cave.
According to the sect’s Secret History records, when the sect’s base was first discovered, the back mountain cliff was already there. After the founding master discovered the secret of the cliff, he pondered how to mine it.
As a result, the outer shell of the cliff was extremely hard. After half a year of probing, they finally found a weak spot near the top of the mountain.
This was the current position of the cave entrance. Only those who knew this part of history would know why the cave entrance was chosen to be at such a high position.
This weak point was actually a soft and loose crack, which was cut and shattered by an unknown force, making it much easier to mine.
In fact, the crack had appeared because of the power of the void. It was only because the crack was small that the area of effect was limited. Otherwise, the cliff would have been split open!
The sect was able to grow by relying on mining those relatively soft ores. However, the area near the mine vein was still extremely strong, and no one cared about it even if it contained Special Metals.
However, the ancient cave suddenly collapsed, covering up the mine vein. If the cultivators of the sect wanted to get more Special Metals, they could only compete with those hard stones.
As for how su huanzhen found the crack at the bottom of the ancient cave, he must have accidentally found a crack in the collapsed rock and entered it without fear of death. That was how he got the chance and finally became a sector Lord of the tower world!
No one knew the cause and effect of all this, including the current sect leader.
Carefully advancing along the cave, it didn’t take long for the sect’s cultivators to arrive at the bottom of the ancient cave. When they saw the crack between the planes that was emitting the aura of another world, everyone present was dumbfounded.
“What the hell is this?”
A cultivator couldn’t help but ask. When he turned to look at the crowd, he found that most of them were dumbfounded.
For ordinary cultivators, such a high-end thing as a crack between planes was something they had no chance to come into contact with. They had never even heard of it.
On the other hand, the sect leader’s face was full of excitement. Among the crowd, his cultivation was the highest and his knowledge was the most extensive. While the others were still confused, he had already guessed the origin of the plane crack.
A burst of ecstasy rose from his heart. He did not expect that there would be such an opportunity hidden in the ancient cave in the back mountain!
could it be that su huanzhen’s sudden increase in strength was due to the crack between the planes? ”
The more the sect leader thought about it, the more likely he felt this was the case. Otherwise, there was no way to explain the huge change in his body!
If a small disciple like him could rise to the top in a single step, it meant that there must be unimaginable benefits behind the crack. My strength was far superior to his, so I might be able to reap even greater benefits!
Thinking of this, the sect leader could no longer suppress the excitement in his heart. He turned to the cultivators and ordered, ” it’s very dangerous here. Su huanzhen might be dead. Get out of here. No one is allowed to come in without my permission!
Who would have thought that after he gave the order, those cultivators from the sects didn’t move. This made his face immediately turn gloomy.
“What’s going on? don’t tell me you’re not even listening to my orders?”
As he spoke, a hint of killing intent flashed through the sect leader’s eyes. He would kill anyone who wanted to snatch this opportunity from him!
“Sect leader, we also want to go in and take a look. Please allow us to do so!”
A cultivator from a sect looked at the crack and couldn’t help but swallow his saliva. His eyes flashed with greed.
He wasn’t the only one who had this expression. The other cultivators had the same expression. This made the sect leader a little suspicious. Could it be that they had all seen through the origin of the crack?
The sect leader’s eyes twitched, and he almost cursed out loud.
It turned out that when he turned around, the crack between the planes suddenly expanded for some reason. A strange scene of another world appeared in the crack that was previously covered by clouds.
At this moment, if the sect’s cultivators still didn’t know what this meant, then they had really cultivated in vain!
