Chapter 595: Leaving the Mining Area

Although Bai San had been away from the Longevity Continent for a long time, he vaguely remembered that refining something like a Ten-Thousand-Soul Banner was definitely the work of an evil cultivator in the Longevity Continent.

And once an evil cultivator dared to show their face, they would absolutely be surrounded and intercepted by other cultivators.

Toward evil cultivators, the Longevity Continent's attitude had always been to kill the wrong ones rather than let one go.

He didn't care much about Ye Lin's life or death, but if the famous righteous sects came knocking, he would definitely suffer as well.

When the city gate catches fire, the fish in the moat suffer; if something happened to Ye Lin, it would definitely affect him, Bai San.

"Oh? There's such a good thing?"

Unexpectedly, Ye Lin's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

In that case, he still had a second retreat.

If he really couldn't find that so-called Black Jade Heaven-Mending Paste, he would just re-refine the Human Emperor Flag.

As for those lost soul bodies, he could just use those who came to hunt him down to replenish them.

The population density of the Longevity Continent should be much, much greater than the world he originally came from.

Correspondingly, the quality of the soul bodies of these cultivators must be much better than the crooked melons and cracked dates from the Sang Country.

However, he had to wait until his strength was stronger before he could do this; otherwise, he would most likely be suppressed directly and die in the cradle.

"What are you going to do?"

Bai San's heart skipped a beat; he suddenly regretted telling Ye Lin about this.

"Don't worry, I'm not doing anything. I'll definitely listen to you and not use the Human Emperor Flag in front of people. Besides, how would I dare to use this Human Emperor Flag now? If I use it one more time, it'll probably collapse directly."

Ye Lin patted his chest to guarantee, and at the same time, grabbed Bai San and prepared to stuff him back into the Human Emperor Flag.

"Wait! You wait first!" Bai San shouted. "You can lock me up, but you must allow me to use my spiritual sense to perceive the surroundings!"

Seeing Ye Lin hesitate, Bai San hurriedly continued to add.

"This is also good for you. If there are any heavenly treasures, I can discover them immediately, and if there are any situations, I can also remind you immediately!"

Upon hearing this, a smile curled at the corners of Ye Lin's mouth.

"Big Brother Bai San, what are you saying? You just want to see your homeland, how could I not allow that?"

Ye Lin released his control over Bai San. Although his soul body still couldn't leave the Human Emperor Flag, he could already perceive the environment around Ye Lin.

After obtaining the information he wanted from Bai San, Ye Lin began to dig out the collapsed mine tunnel bit by bit.

Above the ruins, flames burned fiercely, and paper money danced in the sky.

Kuai Yan squatted on the ruins, burning paper money incessantly. If you looked closely, you could see faint tear stains at the corners of his eyes.

"Brother Ye Lin, how could you be so unlucky? You chose the poorest mine tunnel, and it collapsed."

"That bastard Qiu Weizhi wouldn't even let me dig up your remains, saying it affects mining efficiency."

"In your next life, be reincarnated into a good family; don't be an ascender again. Being an ascender, you won't be able to get ahead even after a lifetime of suffering."

"By the way, you still owe me a low-grade Immortal Source Stone. If you are reincarnated as a second-generation immortal, you must remember to pay me back..."

As Kuai Yan was speaking, he suddenly felt a tremor beneath his feet.

Immediately after, a head emerged from under the pile of burning paper money, and the flames instantly ignited the head.

"There's a ghost!"

Kuai Yan let out a terrified scream.

He had long heard other ascenders say that soul bodies were often encountered in the mining area recently, but he didn't expect to run into one himself today!

"Brother Kuai Yan, don't panic, it's me, Ye Lin!" Ye Lin hurriedly spoke to calm Kuai Yan down.

"It's you? You're not dead?"

Kuai Yan's tone was full of surprise, and then he couldn't help but remind him.

"Your head is on fire."

"It's fine, I'm cosplaying the invincible Zoffy."

Ye Lin extinguished the fire on his head nonchalantly.

Kuai Yan couldn't help but step forward and touch Ye Lin, letting out a long sigh of relief only after confirming that the other party was a flesh-and-blood body.

"Wow! It really is you!"

"It's great that you're not dead. A disaster survivor is bound to have good fortune!"

Kuai Yan hugged Ye Lin excitedly.

"Don't worry, good people don't live long, but scourges live for a thousand years. Someone like me can live for a long time."

Ye Lin comforted Kuai Yan with a smile, and then asked.

"Brother Kuai Yan, have you considered the future?"

"The future?"

A look of confusion appeared in Kuai Yan's eyes.

"Just... work hard, mine well, and strive to save enough Immortal Source Stones to reshape my physical body as soon as possible."

"That's it?"

"That's it." Kuai Yan shook his head.

"A real man lives between heaven and earth, how can he be willing to live under others for long?"

Ye Lin spoke eloquently.

"Brother Kuai Yan, have you never thought about changing your way of life? For example... escaping this mining area!"

As soon as Ye Lin finished speaking, Kuai Yan's face changed wildly in fear, and he hurriedly rushed forward to cover Ye Lin's little mouth.

"Don't you dare talk nonsense!"

After looking around and finding no one else, Kuai Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother Ye Lin, you're new here, you don't understand! Our status as ascenders in the Longevity Continent is not much better than dogs; we have no human rights at all!"

"Not to mention how difficult it is to escape this mining area, even if we do escape, as long as we run into other natives of the Longevity Continent, we'll still be in grave danger."

"So you'd better not have any bold and dangerous ideas; just stay here and mine well."

Ye Lin remained silent. He could see that Kuai Yan was a person worth befriending, but this guy seemed to have had his temperament worn down by three hundred years of mining, and he didn't dare to have any thoughts of resistance at all.

"Then what if I tell you that this mining area might never be able to dig out another piece of Immortal Source ore?"

The words were shocking, and Ye Lin's words made Kuai Yan's brows furrow.

"Although the Lingquan vein has been mined for a long time, there should still be at least one-third of the area that hasn't been mined. How could it be that no Immortal Source ore can be dug out?"

"Do I have any reason to lie to you?"

Ye Lin spread his hands with an innocent expression.

The Immortal Source ore in this mining area was dug out by him; how could he not know?

"If you don't believe me, you can dig for another three days. Three days later, I will find a way to leave here. As for whether you want to leave or not, that's your business."

It's hard to persuade a ghost who wants to die with kind words. If Kuai Yan was obsessed and determined to stay here as a miner, he wouldn't say anything more.

Ye Lin set off to leave, and at the same time, he released Ban Muming and had him secretly keep an eye on Kuai Yan.

"If he shows any signs of reporting to Qiu Weizhi or the high-level officials of the mining area, don't report anything to me, just kill him!" ===== CHAPTER 596 =====
