Chapter 56: The Dog System’s Loan Scheme (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After recovering a little, Ye Xuan immediately entered the cave. The cave was very huge and seemed very dark.
There were some spirit lamps burning, illuminating the entire cave.
Spirit lamps were much more useful than fire torches. Moreover, one charge of spiritual energy was enough to last for months.
Ye Xuan looked around a little but did not find anything useful.
“System, something’s wrong.”
“There’s nothing here?”
Ye Xuan frowned and was very puzzled.
Although the spiritual energy here was dense, it was just that. However, he could not find the source of this spiritual energy.
The only special thing was a small spiritual spring in the cave. Cool spring water gurgled out from the ground.
“Could it be underground??”
Ye Xuan raised his eyebrows and looked at the ground.
The cave was so small. If there was anything special, someone would have exploited it long ago.
However, according to the system notification, the good stuff was located here.
If the system was right, it was very likely underground.
Ten minutes later.
Ye Xuan left the cave.
In the next moment.
Boom!
An incomparably terrifying explosion came from within the cave. Flames soared into the sky and directly expanded the entrance of the cave several times.
The entire mountain shook violently and was on the verge of collapse.
“10 Explosive Talismans are quite powerful
Ye Xuan grinned. It was somewhat out of his expectations.
However, his heart ached.
After all, although creating talismans was simple, it had consumed a lot of energy.
These 10 Grade-I Explosive Talismans were worth more than 3,000 low-grade spirit stones.
After waiting for a while, Ye Xuan returned to the cave.
All the spirit lamps had been blown up by him, so the cave was pitch-black at this moment, but it did not affect his vision.
In the center of the cave, a huge pit appeared.
The spring water just now had also been blown up and disappeared. Underneath the spring water, a dark cave appeared.
“Is there really a hidden cave?”
Ye Xuan was delighted and rushed into the cave below without hesitation. The cave was very deep, and the deeper he went, the narrower the space and the darker it became.
Fortunately, Ye Xuan did not have claustrophobia. Otherwise, he would have been scared to death on the spot.
“Whoosh—”
Ye Xuan used his spiritual energy to light up a spirit lamp, illuminating the entire passageway. Then, he continued to borrow in.
The deeper he went, the denser the spiritual energy became.
After an unknown period of time, Ye Xuan felt that there was suddenly emptiness in front of him. Then, he darted out of the cave and appeared in an incomparably huge underground cave.
There was no sound in the pitch-black cave.
In this pitch-black cave, Ye Xuan’s spirit lamp was like a firefly in the night sky, almost insignificant.
Ye Xuan had no choice but to light up an illumination talisman.
“Whoosh—”
A piercing light burst out in an instant.
At this moment, Ye Xuan finally saw the true appearance of the underground space.
“Good fellow!”
“It’s actually a miniature spirit stone loose mine!”
When Ye Xuan saw the true appearance of the underground cave, he could not help but exclaim.
As the name suggested, spirit stone loose mine was also a type of spirit stone mine, only that the reserves were extremely small.
However, no matter how small, Ye Xuan felt that he could mine at least a million low-grade spirit stones!
No wonder the spiritual energy here was much denser than elsewhere.
As this was the periphery of the mystic realm, most people felt that this was only the Spirit Condensing Formation which might have been generated by the geographical location of the valley. That was why the spiritual energy here was a little denser and did not even think that there would be a spirit stone mine at all.
Moreover, spirit stone mines were extremely rare in the outside world, let alone in the mystic realm.
Most cultivators cared about the treasures in the ruins and cave abodes left behind by some predecessors in the mystic realm, as well as some natural treasures and various blessed lands in the ruins.
In the end, it was also because this spirit stone mine was located in an underground cave nearly a hundred meters underground. With such a thick ground layer, ordinary cultivators could not discover it at all.
“The system is awesome. This 100 years of lifespan is worth it!!” Ye Xuan laughed and was in a good mood.
“Perfect, I’ll break through here.”
“These spirit stones should be enough for me to reach the Supreme Foundation Establishment Realm!”
Ye Xuan looked around and then came to the center of the cave and slowly sat down.
If he were to mine so many spirit stones, he would have to waste a great deal of effort.
Therefore, Ye Xuan chose to build his foundation on the spot.
In any case, he knew that building a foundation required a large amount of spiritual energy. If there was not enough spiritual energy, he would take the initiative to plunder all the surrounding spiritual energy.
Therefore, Ye Xuan was not too worried.
Moreover, this was deep underground. If building a foundation really attracted the lightning tribulation, then it could also be a buffer.
In the cave outside, he had set up a simple formation on his way down here to hide the spiritual energy aura here. Even if someone accidentally passed by and saw such a broken cave, they would feel that this place had been ruined by someone. Naturally, they would not investigate further.
“Finally, everything is ready.”
“System, come on!”
Ye Xuan took a deep breath and immediately probed his consciousness into the system, directly choosing the Supreme Foundation Establishment!
Buzz!
In an instant, Ye Xuan only felt his entire body go soft.
It was as if the power in his body had been completely drained.
He knew that his lifespan was being taken away by the dog system.
Although he had borrowed nearly 100,000 years of lifespan, these were only figures and had not been added to him. His original 5,000 plus years of lifespan was his true life force..
