Chapter 585: Heavenly Secret Ancient Palace
Seeing that the situation was controlled, Qiu Weizhi breathed a sigh of relief secretly and turned to leave.
Before leaving, he looked at Ye Lin with a hint of pity.
If nothing unexpected happened, this kid definitely wouldn't survive tonight; the other ascenders wouldn't let him go.
Sure enough, after Qiu Weizhi left, the other ascenders had the intention of isolating Ye Lin.
They each occupied those mining caves with the best resources and the highest output rate, leaving only some extremely barren mining caves for Ye Lin.
Even Brother Kuai Yan, who had been friendly to Ye Lin at first, silently distanced himself from him.
But this was exactly what Ye Lin wanted; if he didn't distance himself from others, how could he take the opportunity to steal and eat the Immortal Source Ore?
Ye Lin rubbed his hands and walked toward a mining cave where no one was.
When his figure disappeared into the mining cave, the other ascenders began to discuss it.
"Hmph, another fool who wants to please the Team Leader!"
"The mining cave he entered has an extremely low output rate; sometimes you can't dig out an Immortal Source Stone even after digging for a whole day. What a brain-damaged person."
"Deserved! As fellow ascenders, he betrayed us to please that bastard Qiu Weizhi. Such a person, die early and be clean early!"
Seeing this, Brother Kuai Yan sighed secretly.
This matter was also his fault; he was busy warning Ye Lin not to go against or offend Qiu Weizhi, the Team Leader, and forgot to tell Ye Lin not to please Qiu Weizhi in front of other ascenders.
This kind of behavior would be regarded as betrayal by other ascenders.
Ye Lin couldn't hear the gossip outside; now he had reached the deepest part of the mining cave.
What came into view was pitch-black ore, with traces of sword slashes and hammer chisels on it.
Ye Lin of course knew that the ones the other ascenders left for him were the most barren mining caves.
But it didn't matter; he didn't need to dig it himself; he had plenty of free labor.
Ye Lin took out the Human Emperor Flag directly; looking at the crack-filled Human Emperor Flag, Ye Lin felt a bit of heartache.
When fighting Fan Xiu, the Human Emperor Flag had borne too much energy to protect the living beings of that world, and now it was approaching collapse.
He could only hope that after recovering his strength, he could find stronger materials on Changsheng Continent to repair the Human Emperor Flag.
Ye Lin didn't summon the entire soul army, only bringing out the hundred or so powerful soul bodies like Ban Mumang and the Soul-Sacrificing Empress; any more and the mining tunnel wouldn't be able to fit them.
"Master, who are we killing this time?!"
Ban Mumang's soul body was glowing; clearly, he had lived very comfortably in the Human Emperor Flag during this thousand-year time.
"We aren't killing anyone this time; you go keep watch. If someone comes, remind me immediately; don't let anyone discover you." Ye Lin pointed to the mining tunnel entrance behind him.
"Okay, Master!" Ban Mumang stood guard at the mining cave entrance immediately.
At the same time, under Ye Lin's command, the other soul bodies began an orderly mining operation.
Although they didn't have pickaxes and could only dig with their bare hands, the soul bodies could revive infinitely, causing a qualitative change through quantitative change.
To prevent anyone from seeing clues when entering the mining cave, Ye Lin deliberately let the soul bodies dig out a side mining tunnel and refilled the places they had dug with stone fragments.
And he himself, in order to cover up, swung the pickaxe and began to dig forward.
Openly repair the plank road, secretly cross the Chencang!
The mining cave Ye Lin chose was poor, but it couldn't stop the soul bodies from digging fast.
Soon Ye Lin saw the first Immortal Source Stone; although it was only the size of a thumb, for Ye Lin, who was as poor as a church mouse, even a mosquito was meat.
He activated Endless Devouring without hesitation and refined this Immortal Source Stone in an instant.
A moment later, the previously fluorescent Immortal Source Stone turned into a pile of stone fragments.
And after refining this small piece of Immortal Source Stone, Ye Lin felt that his body had undergone a little change, just like a long-sealed shackle had suddenly been shaken by someone.
"At this rate, it will probably take a long time to complete the body reshaping that Brother Kuai Yan mentioned..."
Ye Lin narrowed his eyes, then released more soul bodies without hesitation.
DIG!
Dig through this mining area!
While the soul army was digging mines diligently, on a mountain peak towering into the clouds on Changsheng Continent, sat a palace like a behemoth.
In the core area of the palace, eight white-haired old men sat on the ground.
The eight were men and women, and each of them exuded an ancient and mysterious aura.
The origin of the Heavenly Secret Ancient Palace could be said to be long in history.
In the ancient times, it was founded by the Ancient Heavenly Secret Emperor and was a true Imperial Immortal Sect.
It was a pity that with the passage of time, the Heavenly Secret Ancient Palace gradually declined and became a fifth-rate small force.
Everyone on Changsheng Continent thought that the Heavenly Secret Ancient Palace would completely disappear in the long river of time.
But a thousand years ago, a turning point appeared.
The Heavenly Dao Ancient Palace successfully recruited an ascender who possessed the Nine-Trigram Exquisite Heart.
This ascender had just entered the Heavenly Secret Ancient Palace when it caused a vibration throughout the Heavenly Secret Ancient Palace.
The Ancient Heavenly Secret Emperor's long-lost life-bound imperial artifact, the Myriad Ancient Star Disk, awakened autonomously and flew back to the Heavenly Secret Ancient Palace!
The Heavenly Secret Ancient Palace immediately enshrined this ascender as a Goddess, and the Goddess did not disappoint them.
Under her leadership, in just a thousand years, the Heavenly Secret Ancient Palace returned to its peak, becoming one of the most terrifying inheritances on Changsheng Continent.
Not only did it recall the missing imperial heritage, but it also obtained countless opportunities, and powerhouses appeared like a fountain.
And the eight people sitting in the hall before them were the eight strongest powerhouses of the Heavenly Secret Ancient Palace at present.
"In the eastern part of Changsheng Continent, abnormal soul fluctuations have appeared, as if many soul bodies have appeared in a concentrated manner." One of them said in a deep voice.
"The Goddess said before stepping onto the Azure Heaven Ancient Road that if abnormal soul fluctuations appeared after the Outer-Realm Heavenly Demon disappeared, she must be informed immediately."
"Impossible! The future of the Goddess is the top priority of the Heavenly Secret Ancient Palace! Nothing can disturb her!"
"Then how to deal with these abnormal soul fluctuations in the east?"
"Do it once and for all, find the source of the soul fluctuations directly, and wipe it out."
"Good, I will go there personally."
"No, if you go, the target is too conspicuous. Send your subordinates to go; remember, be clean, and don't let the Goddess discover clues after she returns." ===== CHAPTER 586 =====
