_____
The group of people slowly advanced in the energy storm.
Inside the energy storm, everybody had to spend a significant amount of energy. Eventually, they had crossed the area, landing on another meteorolite.
This meteorolite was almost identical to the one they had stayed in earlier. It was cold and dark. They saw no living energy, and they had to consume their energy to resist this harsh ambiance every second.
As soon as Leylin steadied his body, he stepped forward and said, "Continue."
Then, he took the lead and jumped into the cold darkness again.
No one said anything, following him into the dark. Waiting wouldn't get them anywhere, they were spending energy continuously and staying would be a waste of precious energy.
After crossing more than ten meteorolites, even their cultivation base at their high realm couldn't endure anymore. All of them had spent at least half of their energy.
Aart and Jima who had the lowest cultivation base merely at First Sky of True God realm appeared unable to endure anymore, their faces paling. Although they didn't say anything, it looked like they couldn't endure for much longer.
At this moment, despair gradually expanded in their hearts, as they thought that they would never cross this meteorolite sea to find a way out.
Leylin didn't turn around or motivate them, he was merely storming forward.
Crossing the energy storm, as soon as Leylin landed on the meteorolite, "Someone was here before!"
Serret and Dalon were behind him. They were struck by hearing his words.
Everybody was stirred up, looking at the meteorolite with a flame of hope in their hearts.
The meteorolite they were standing on was a little bit bigger than the Immortal Island in the Endless Sea. There were so many burrows digging into the core of the meteorolite. Big rocks were scattered at the entrance of those big burrows. It was obvious that someone had exploited this area.
Everybody got cheered up, releasing their Soul Consciousness towards those caves to see if they could find anything alive.
However, they were disappointed in seeing no energy fluctuation of living things. Although someone was here before, they had left already.
"A.I.Chip scan the caves for remnants of any kind of resources and search in the database."
[Beep! Task established...Scanning.... Scan complete.. No remnants of any form of known resources can be identified. There are unique signatures of unidentified heavy Qi essence, most similar to Essence Crystals used by Warriors.]
'Can it be used by warriors at True God Realm?'
[Exact data cannot be conjured due to lack of samples... Running simulations to commanded hypothesis..... Beep! Task completed! 92% probability of new essence crystals able to fill up the Profound Qi Tree of a True God Realm Warrior.]
'Good. The A. I. Chip of a warrior with the power and soul of a Radiant Moon Magus can't be underestimated. Even without a sample and with mere remnants and assumptions, it can calculate precise results.'
"This meteorolite was a mineral mine. However, they had exploited it all. That's why we found no one here."
As Everyone heard his conclusion, they felt better. Serret smiled and consoled himself. "If we find streaks of living things here, it means we're going in the right way. If they can visit here and leave safely, we can, too. As long as we can find the traces of people operating in the area, we can confirm that this place isn't a dead place that has no hope."
Everybody agreed with him. They felt better, as they felt like they could see hope here.
Everybody continued to move forward.
They then crossed other seven meteorolites, of which, three had the traces of exploitation.
Everybody was cheered up, even though their energy was about to drain completely. They continued moving forward.
Later on, they reached a giant meteorolite. As soon as they landed, everybody was happy.
They immediately sensed the streak of living beings.
They hurried to move to the area where they detected the living aura. Then, they saw many massive caves connected to the core of the meteorolite. The living fluctuation they had sensed came out from those caves.
They could detect the others, and the others seemed to find them too. Not long after that, an ear-splitting explosion arose. Beasts that looked like they were made of piles of rock appeared from the caves.
This kind of a beast was around ten meters long, with a lozenge shape and a sharp, pointy head. They also had terrifying knife-like teeth.
They had never seen these kinds of beasts in the Grace Mainland. A dim light flickered in the beasts' eyes, while diffusing a massive aura and glaring at their group.
A shout arose from the caves. Not long afterward, seven people emerged from the cave. They were the members of the Dark Spirit Clan, Human Clan, and Ghost Mark Clan. Those people had an outstanding diamond-shaped mark on their forehead. They seemed to belong to the same force.
The leader was a member of the Dark Spirit Clan, whose energy movement was formidable. The energy intensity of his body was very intimidating.
That man wore a dark gold robe, hiding his hands in the loose sleeves. He was an old man with white hair draped over his shoulder. His cold eyes gazed at Leylin's team right when they got out of the cave.
'So he is the King God Realm warrior A. I. Chip detected... ' Leylin remained indifferent under his gaze. He had obviously found these people before everyone and not only that he even gauged accurately their strength, only after he was sure that he could handle them all in the worst case scenario did he come here.
Under that intimidating warrior's gaze, everybody was extremely uneasy, as if a giant, ferocious beast of the Antiquity was looking at them. This feeling was so annoying.
"King God Realm!" Serret muttered, his face changing dramatically.
"Where are you from?" The Dark Spirit Clan's leader coldly looked at the other and said in a low tone. However, he was imposing like a God watching his creatures, nonchalant but harsh.
"We are from Grace Mainland. We've just arrived at the Meteorolite Sea. But now we're lost," Serret took one step forward and replied to the old man carefully. "Where is this place? I wonder if you could show us the way to survive here?"
"The way to survive?" That man chuckled. He contemplated for a while and then nodded, his eyes musing. "There's a way to survive. However, you have to be obedient. Otherwise, it's your dead way. Understand?"
Everybody in Leylin's team discolored. They discreetly observed the other six people. They were all scared.
Leylin looked at him with narrowed eyes, 'Fight or retreat.. The other six warriors behind him are at the Peak of True God Realm. This King God realm guy is the most cumbersome but if I go all out I can probably deal with them.. Although he's also a King God Realm warrior like Vishesh and both were at First Sky of King God Realm but Vishesh was much stronger than him, most probably because of his Black Tortoise bloodline.'
'Fighting isn't a problem but how would I recover then? I already spent a lot of energy in Grace Mainland to open the gate, I had to use my sentient force to retain my powers so far. As for now, not even after killing them and absorbing their sentient force would I be able to completely recover myself and heal the obvious injuries I would incur. I also don't know much about this place, if they are in such an organized group they can even be part of a bigger organization or faction. I might make an enemy I shouldn't provoke.... Best to take things slowly and grasp the situation first.'
"Master Anmou, that scripture isn't bad, haha." A young man of the Ghost Mark Clan chuckled. A magical tattoo appeared on his face as he admired the Yin Written Charm Scripture. He muttered, "Master, you've agreed to give me something."
The Dark Spirit Clan's leader was called Anmou. He just grinned, raising his hand and snatching at the void.
A tremendous flow of energy that could make a mountain collapse gushed out furiously from his palm. The Yin Written Charm Scripture was grabbed, falling into Anmou's hand.
"Get out. Don't make me do that," Anmou held the Yin Written Charm Scripture, talking faintly as if he had no emotions.
A thin, pale figure emerged from the Yin Written Charm Scripture. He was as feeble as a willow catkin in the wind. The old man shivered, his eyes frightened.
That was Zenith's body, being exposed for the first time. It seemed he couldn't adapt to the outer world, as he was moving his limbs oddly.
"King God Realm, not bad. You're a hotshot. Unfortunately, your energy has been drained too much, and you haven't attained the God Body yet. Not much of a threat." Anmou contemplated for a while as if he were considering whether to kill Zenith or not. Anyway, he didn't do anything.
After Zenith got out of the scripture, he threw it to the young man of the Dark Spirit Clan. "Take it. This toy isn't good enough, but it's still good for you."
The young man was cheered up on taking the scripture. He sensed it for a while and then joy filled his eyes. "Ah, it has a low-level inheritance, which I've never seen before. Not bad indeed. Haha, I finally got something in this trip."
Zenith turned ashen. His lips convulsed, but he didn't resist.
He understood that once he resisted, he would be killed directly.
Both the realm and powers of the others were stronger than his. Even if he could restore his power, he would have never had a chance to win, let alone his current status.
He could only accept his fate.
Anmou, the leader, frowned. His gloomy eyes raked through Leylin's team. After a long time, he said, "Decca, give each of them a piece of low-quality Divine Crystal. Let them restore their state, then make them exploit the ores for us."
The Dark Spirit Clan's young man, who took the Yin Written Charm Scripture, grinned and answered, "Master Anmou, don't worry. I'll keep an eye on them."
Anmou nodded, talking to them. "Help us exploit this mine; I will consider giving you a way to survive. Yeah, we will see your performance. You guys should seize the chance to live for yourself."
Then, Anmou turned around and walked to the cave. The five peculiar beasts roared and then followed him like sharp drills.
Right after that, cracking and grinding noises came from the caves. It seemed they were breaking and grinding big stones.
The Dark Spirit Clan's young man called Decca grinned after the others had left. Eight thumb-sized black crystals emerged from the ring on his finger. They looked like black glass, with enormous energy moving inside. From his hand, the eight crystals flew out, falling towards each member of Leylin's group respectively.
Leylin snatched the black crystal. He released his Soul Consciousness to sense for a while.
'A. I. Chip is this it?'
[Beep! Scanning...Affirmed! The energy levels are similar to precious samples.]
[Scanning new sample... Sample renamed Divine Crystal. Beep! Scan complete! Unique energy sample found! 42% similar to the Essence Crystal in the Grace Mainland. Special feature of this essence crystals could be converted to any energy that was suitable for the users.Capable of completely supplementing a First Sky Of True God Realm Warrior.]
'It is just a low-quality Divine Crystal, but the energy it stored was so intimidating. This showed that not only the others were strong, but they were also filthy rich. It wasn't easy to shake them.'
"You guys should use the Divine Crystals to restore your energy first. Then, you will follow me to take the ores. Don't resist or annoy us. Or else... Muahaha!" Decca's threat was obvious. Then, he squinted and sat down cross-legged, took out a fist-sized Divine Crystal, and started to absorb the energy from the stone.
Leylin didn't say anything just sat down and slightly urged the divine crystal, and a torrential flow of energy rolled towards him, flooding his Essence Qi ancient tree.
Leylin's Soul Consciousness checked the tree and saw the branches, which had been withered, become jade white again, shining with abundant energy.
After around one hour, Leylin had restored a part of the energy he had consumed.
Similar to him, others couldn't recover that much either.
Especially Zenith of the Ghost Mark Clan. To him, this low-quality thumb-sized Divine Crystal was just like a grain of salt in the sea. The energy of his Divine Crystal had turned into the Mysterious Yin qi in his body, but it could only make him feel better. He still needed a lot to condense the God Body.
This low-quality Divine Crystal was enough to restore the consumed energy of Aart and Jima.
But to others, whose realms were higher, it wasn't enough, and it couldn't restore them to the peak.
Leylin understood immediately what others had planned.
As Aart, Jima and Leylin were at lower realms than the Third Sky of True God Realm, even if they could restore their full energy, they couldn't cause any threat to Anmou's team.
But Serret, Dalon, Kante and Corpse Chief were at the Peak of True God Realm. If they could recover fully, it would be a problem.
Zenith used to have the cultivation base of King God Realm. If they let him recover to his peak, he would give a big headache to Anmou.
That was why they had given them the low-quality Divine Crystals to hold everyone down. They didn't want to see this group restore to the peak, which would bring them unnecessary problems.
Leylin also wasn't able to recover much because although at only Second Sky of True God realm, his Profound Qi wasn't lower than a Third Sky. It wasn't only extremely potent but also very abundant.
'But I don't have to worry much, I have a physique similar to a King God. Later, I can just coat myself with a disguised minuscule Profound Qi layar while working, and use the Divine Crystal later given to reach the peak. Now that I know they have something like this....' Leylin eyes flashed with a vicious color but he retrieved his thoughts.
'It's best to not get ahead of myself.. Better integrate and garner more information.'
Not long after that, others had used up their Divine Crystals. They stood up, but they seemed not fully satisfied.
Zenith was the last one who finished. His visage was still grim. He stood up, looking at the young man of his kind with a mournful face. "We are from the same Ghost Mark Clan. Why do you need to make it hard for me?"
Decca laughed evilly, his eyes musing. "At first glance, I knew you're from the low-level continent. You're so boring, talking about racism. We don't talk about races here. Every race is the same. We only consider the realm and powers. We don't care about races."
"Don't try to befriend me. Don't babble either. Work more. You should seize the chance to survive for yourself." Decca waved his hand, not giving Zenith time to talk more. He continued tenderly. "Master Anmou isn't an easy person to talk with. He let you live, so don't mess things up. If you enrage him, muahaha, I think... you will suffer something more grating than death. We, the Troop 17, are kind enough. If you meet the other troops, perhaps you will be killed shortly."
Then, Decca pointed at a cave under his feet and talked faintly. "Come with me. I will teach you how." He took the lead and jumped into the cave.
They shook their heads begrudgingly and followed the young man.
'Troop 17 huh? so there are at least 16 more of these mineral exploitation teams....'
Shortly, they arrived at the core of the meteorolite. They saw one of the beasts of that bizarre kind, which was crushing the rigid stone crazily, digging deeper into the meteorolite.
That beast had a sharp, pointy head, that seemed to be able to break everything, as it had an innate power to crush stones. The way the beast bumped into the stone wall was like someone hitting a block of tofu. It pierced through the wall easily.
Those beasts continually broke the stone, digging deeper into the thick stone. It stopped from time to time to gather energy, then continued the work.
This stone wall seemed to never end. It had many five-colored spots on the wall, which looked really beautiful. Under the beast's crazy activity, those five-colored spots cracked. Fingernail-sized pieces of this five-colored material scattered everywhere.
"Look carefully. Use your energy to cover them. Don't let those small pieces be exposed for too long. Only using power could save them from disappearing." Decca suddenly shouted. His ten fingers folded and then unfolded. Wisps of light flew out, covering each five-colored stone.
It seemed like those small pieces couldn't be exposed for a long time. Otherwise, some special effects in the stones would be drained bit by bit.
"Follow me and use the energy to cover the five-colored Perish Essence, then slowly put them into your Storage Ring," Decca shouted, his eyes as swift as electricity. He turned, glaring at them coldly. "If you can collect enough five-colored Perish Essence, Master Anmou can let you live. He perhaps will give you more Divine Crystals to recover. Otherwise, you know what will happen."
As Kante and Zenith heard him, they changed their countenance, quickly following his operation to collect the five-colored stones first.
After an unknown period, Anmou brought the other five and appeared in this cave.
Decca laughed, handing a ring to Anmou. The old man checked it. He seemed to have a smile in his eyes as he nodded contentedly. "Not bad, you guys work better than the others."
Decca squinted, his face happy.
"Can't let you take all the good things," said Anmou. "These eight should be separated. We need to push up the progress of the other areas." He looked at the other five. "You shall choose your men."
Soon, those five people had picked one of Serret's groups. The warrior of the Dark Spirit Clan chose Zenith, while the warrior of the Ghost Mark Clan picked Jima and Serret. An old human took Kante and Corpse Chief; another Dark Spirit Clan's warrior picked Dalon and Aart, Leylin was assigned to a beautiful human woman.
That pretty woman had a messy, chestnut-brown hair and a pair of bright eyes. She was wearing a tight, green colored robe, which had many delicate patterns on the hem. This woman had a healthy wheat skin tone. Her body looked amazingly flexible.
She threw a glance at Leylin, then talked to him faintly. "This kid looks good, better than the others. I'll take him."
Anmou nodded, talking to them. "Alright, you guys follow them. After we're done, I will check your contributions and give you something."
"Follow me," the woman called Fergie nodded to Leylin with an indifferent countenance. She walked out of the cave first.
After bidding farewell to the others, he followed the human woman named Fergie to another cave and continued his mining career.
Fergie, was more generous than Decca. Although she also gave him the bad-quality Divine Crystals, she gave him three pieces each time. Then, she busied herself with exploiting ores, and didn't care about him much
This woman was at the Peak of True God Realm. The energy moving inside her body was special. It could be as soft as cotton or as rigid as stone with just one flicker of her thought. And, she had many rare techniques.
While her energy was changing, it generated a strange magnetic field. Just like two poles, it had a powerful suction force. It was like a pure, subtle power of heaven and earth.
She was collecting the five-colored Perish Essence faster than Decca of the Ghost Mark Clan. While the energy of two-pole magnetic field of her body was changing, it drew pieces of five-colored stones into her ring.
She mostly did everything herself. Leylin was just doing some odd jobs, which were much easier than when he was with Decca. He was free in this cave while working with that woman. No one had said a word.
Today, it seemed the woman had consumed much of her energy. She suddenly stopped and took out a big Divine Crystal, stroking it with her jade-like hand to take the energy from the stone.
She seemed bored to death too. Eventually, she remembered she still had a company here. The woman threw a glance to Leylin and asked with a faint voice. "I heard that you guys came from a low-level continent, eh?"
"What's the definition of a 'low-level continent'?"
"A continent that doesn't have warriors at Original God Realm is a low-level one. Do you have experts at Original God Realm in your continent?" The woman answered herself mockingly. "I think no. Otherwise, you must have known the classification of continents."
"Original God Realm?" Leylin perked his ears, 'The realms above King God. There were indeed warriors at such realms like the Seven Demogorgon depicted and enshrined in Demon Area, I think there were probably even more formidable ones in Grace Mainland in the Antiquity but why should I tell you.'
"What is the strongest realm in your continent?" The woman seemed to get bored stiff, asking casually.
"King God Realm," Leylin answered according to the current trend. The Grace Mainland was at the end of it's cycle yet it could produce King God Realm warrior isn't a bad feat in his opinion.
"I knew it," Fergie nodded and answered slowly. "The Spirit Realm, True God Realm, and King God Realm are the three minor God Realms. After the King God Realm is the Original God Realm. Above that is the Ethereal God Realm, and finally, the Incipient God Realm. Each realm's also divided into three Skies. The Original God Realm, Ethereal God Realm, and Incipient God Realm are the three major God Realms."
