Chapter 590: Completely Crazy
Qiu Weizhi's expression changed, and he hurriedly covered Ye Lin's mouth.
"It's almost New Year, don't be like this! I believe you!"
Qiu Weizhi didn't expect Ye Lin to be so unyielding, swearing with the lives of his entire family without a word.
"Team Leader, no need to say more! If I, Ye Lin, deceive you, let the heavens strike down a bolt of lightning and exterminate my nine clans directly!"
Ye Lin patted his chest and guaranteed.
"Team Leader, give me fifteen more days; within fifteen days, I will definitely kill Liu Ruyan!"
"Good, there are no jokes in the mine!" Qiu Weizhi said with a solemn expression.
"Ten days! Ten days to kill Liu Ruyan!" Ye Lin's tone was firm.
"Good! For these ten days, I guarantee no one can disturb you."
Qiu Weizhi also gave Ye Lin a promise, and this promise also made Ye Lin, on the third day, completely let himself go.
This day, the soul bodies that surged out from the Human Emperor Flag reached a terrifying 5 million!
If one looked down from the sky of the Lingquan mining vein, one could even see a wisp of black resentment like cooking smoke seeping out through the cracks in the mining vein.
Under the digging of 5 million soul bodies, the southern, western, and eastern mining veins of the 81st mining area were almost all dug empty.
After Ye Lin let the soul army dig empty the mining area, he also thoughtfully refilled the mining tunnels with stone fragments to delay the time of being discovered.
On the first day, Ye Lin obtained Immortal Source Ore comparable to 3 million low-grade Immortal Source Stones.
It wasn't that the soul army couldn't dig anymore, but that the Immortal Source Ore inside the 81st mining area was almost extinct......
On the second day, the number of the soul army doubled again, reaching a staggering 12 million.
This 12 million soul army was divided into four by Ye Lin, digging out toward the 80th, 79th, 78th, and the newly excavated 82nd mining areas adjacent to the 81st mining area!
If one could split the Lingquan mining vein and clearly see the cross-section, one would find.
Inside the Lingquan mining vein, there were now countless winding mining tunnels, like a spider web, spreading out with Ye Lin as the center.
In a certain sense, the interior of the Lingquan mining vein had now become a huge ant nest.
Countless worker ants made of soul bodies were digging diligently inside the mining vein.
On the third day, Ye Lin, who was digging four mining areas at the same time, obtained Immortal Source Ore comparable to 8 million low-grade Immortal Source Stones!
Ye Lin's eyes turned red instantly.
At this rate, he only needed six days to reshape his body!
So starting from the fourth day, Ye Lin went completely crazy.
He brought out all the 100 million soul army in the Human Emperor Flag and launched a dig against all the mining areas in the Lingquan mining vein!
Although there were 82 mining areas in the Lingquan mining vein, the first 50 mining areas had already been dug empty long ago.
Now, there were only 32 mining areas left that could produce Immortal Source Ore.
These 32 mining areas were each allocated 3 million soul bodies on average!
If anyone could see Ye Lin's expression now, they would find that Ye Lin's expression had become distorted due to excitement.
Time was like the New Year; it felt like the firecrackers of last year had just exploded, and the New Year's blessings of this year had already sounded.
In the blink of an eye, another three days passed.
Under the joint efforts of the 100 million soul army, the amount of Immortal Source Ore Ye Lin received every day was incomparably terrifying.
The Immortal Source Ore powder refined by his Endless Devouring had even paved several meters high.
And as 100 million soul army were secretly digging mines, the entire Lingquan mining vein began to become wrong.
At first, it was a miner who suddenly shouted while digging.
"GHOST!"
Then he dropped the pickaxe as if he had gone crazy and
The ascenders—which of them was not a proud child of heaven, having defeated countless competitors before arriving at the Everlasting Continent?
Yet after arriving, they could only serve as beasts of burden; how could they be willing to accept this?
Immediately following this, things began to go wrong inside the mine vein.
At first, it was just a miner who, while digging, suddenly let out a loud shout.
"Ghost!"
Then, as if he had gone mad, he dropped his pickaxe and ran out regardless of anything else.
At the start, no one took it seriously, assuming he had suddenly fallen ill and was hallucinating.
But immediately after, the number of miners who saw the 'drifters' grew larger and larger.
Some of them would be digging when, suddenly, a semi-transparent drifter would appear, scaring them half to death.
Sometimes, a single strike of the pickaxe could even unearth a large group of semi-transparent drifters.
Yet, strangely, those drifters had no intention of harming them.
Some rumored that those drifters were all ascenders who had died in the mining area previously... which was why they were so friendly to the miners who were also ascenders.
But having a drifter pop out while digging was too much of a test for one's psychological fortitude.
In an instant, the mining area was filled with panic, and some even dared not continue mining.
More crucially, everyone discovered that the ore output rate during this period had dropped significantly.
Some had even gone five consecutive days without digging up a single piece of Immortal Source ore.
It was bad enough that it was haunted, but with the output rate also dropping, this undoubtedly further dampened the enthusiasm of the ascenders for mining.
These phenomena also had the managers of the Lingquan mine vein running around in a panic. That Profound-Connecting expert even issued a death order: if the cause could not be found within three days, all management staff would be buried alive.
Because of these matters, Qiu Weizhi had already been called in and scolded eight times by his immediate superior in these five days.
And at this moment, seeing Liu Ruyan still jumping around, Qiu Weizhi was even more furious.
He charged furiously toward the mine cave where Ye Lin was located.
Ban Muming discovered Qiu Weizhi in advance and hurriedly ran inside to tip off Ye Lin.
Ye Lin frowned; there were still three days left of the ten-day period Qiu Weizhi had promised him.
Qiu Weizhi coming over in such a rage now was certainly not a good thing.
If he just had one more day, the army of one hundred million soul bodies would be able to help him gather enough Immortal Source ore to reshape his body.
Things having reached this point, he could only take a gamble!
"Ban Muming, you stay here and watch the Human Emperor Flag for me, let the soul body army continue digging, do not stop!"
Ye Lin stuck the Human Emperor Flag into the ground, then walked out proactively, greeting him with a smile.
But the moment Qiu Weizhi saw him, he began to curse loudly.
"Seven days have already passed, why do you have zero progress? Are you a piece of trash? I ****!" Qiu Weizhi vented all the humiliation he had received from his superior onto Ye Lin.
Ye Lin's gaze grew cold, yet his face was brimming with smiles.
"Don't worry, Team Leader! The killing formation is already set up! I'm going to go trick Liu Ruyan over now. You must absolutely not let anyone enter this mine cave, otherwise, it will be troublesome if the killing formation is triggered by accident!"
Hearing this, Qiu Weizhi's expression finally looked a bit better.
"Fine, I'll watch it for you, go ahead!"
"Leave it to me, Ye Lin, you can put your heart at ease!"
Ye Lin strode forward, proactively walking toward Liu Ruyan, and then took the initiative to greet her.
Ye Lin raised his hand, directly showing off his biceps.
"Hey, friend, my hands have the same power as a bear, wolf, leopard!"
