1301 Friend, Do You Have Many Questions?
Wang Teng was a master mining engineer so he was familiar with mineshafts.
First, he used his Spiritual Sight to check the strong energy fluctuations before using his Eyes of Essence, to look through the mountain walls and see the interior.
Based on what he could see, there were countless white ores embedded in the mountain walls. All of different sizes, they were giving off a dazzling glow.
This is… an immaculate energy stone mine!
Wang Teng was flabbergasted. He barely could believe his eyes.
An immaculate energy stone mine!
It was a rare kind of energy stone, even rarer than ninth level energy stones. And yet, an entire mine of it was right before him.
Is this a gift from heaven?
Another question followed—
What was the immaculate energy stone?
Such pieces of stone would usually come with different elements, and were dug out from the land.
Most mines absorbed force attributes around them, producing energy stones with different elements infused; for instance, there were fire element energy stones, wood element energy stones, and so on.
Martial warriors could absorb the corresponding forces inside those stones to improve their cultivation.
As for immaculate energy stones, they were special.
They were pieces devoid of any element. The force contained was the purest zero-element force. No matter what element the martial warrior excelled at, he would be able to absorb the force inside to cultivate, even dark apparitions were able to use them.
No wonder that devil mind apparition had to enter secretly, wary that others would see him.
The fellow had probably found the place by coincidence, and wanted to have it all to himself.
Immaculate energy stones were precious, even more valuable than any other element energy stones.
It was said that universe stage martial warriors and above would use immaculate stones to cultivate.
This in itself made the sneaky apparition’s action understandable, wanting to be the sole beneficiary.
Wang Teng touched his chin, eyes glistening. He felt extremely lucky at the moment!
Opportunities are given to those who are prepared.
He didn’t squat all day for nothing, just to wait for that fellow to show up.
In the cave— Ukpur rubbed his palms together and took out the shovel he prepared from his space ring, then started digging out the stones.
“This is fate. This is my fate. I didn’t think I’d be able to find an immaculate energy stone mine.
“I am magnificent. I knew there was a mine when I walked past here that day,” the creature muttered to himself as he dug for stones. He looked ecstatic.
However, he started to complain as he dug.
“This body is too weak. If not, I wouldn’t have this much trouble digging. I could have easily taken out all the immaculate energy stones.”
Ukpur felt bitter as he kept on grumbling, “Fortunately, the absorption speed of the girl’s soul will increase with these immaculate energy stones. Once I’m done absorbing, I will be stronger than Brumberg.
“All he did was save me. Did he have to be so bossy, lecturing me all the time? Who does he think he is? I’ll show him some colors after my ability increases.”
Clang!
After digging for some time, his shovel struck something hard, producing a clear and crisp sound.
“Found it!” Ukpur’s eyes lit up. He threw away the shovel and pasted himself against the stone wall. As expected, he saw a white crystal the size of his fist shimmering amongst the yellow stones.
“This immaculate energy stone is big enough for me to cultivate.” Ukpur felt overjoyed; he worked hard to dig it out.
At this moment—a voice was suddenly heard inside the cave. “Thanks for your hard work!”
“Who is it?” Ukpur squinted. The voice sounded familiar, but that wasn’t the time for deep pondering. He turned his head in a hurry.
Bang!
Something purple and squarish looking welcomed him.
Ukpur’s head was banged before he could react. There was a ringing sound in his ears and his vision turned black. He fainted.
The energy stone he had just dug out fell to the ground.
“So this is the immaculate energy stone!” Wang Teng picked up the stone and observed it in detail. He seemed fond of it.
It was his first time seeing one of its kind. He sensed it briefly and noticed the extremely pure energy hidden within, vastly different from the normal force. It was actually different from all the rest of the elements, but after careful inspection one could feel a slight connection between them.
That was a force that contained the ability to change. It was a peculiar, yet special nature that could be transformed into any element.
Ukpur gradually regained consciousness. He stared at Wang Teng with wide eyes, as if having just seen a ghost.
“You! You! You!”
“Surprise!” Wang Teng smiled and squatted down. “Friend, do you have many questions?”
Ukpur felt speechless, overcome with despair. There were indeed questions marks hanging all over his head.
Why is this bastard here?
Why is he here?
The person he least wanted to see popped up at the place he wanted to keep secret!
He almost went mad from frustration.
“Surprised?” Wang Teng smiled.
Ukpur wasn’t planning to simply sit and wait for death. His gaze became sharp and a black dagger appeared in his hand, making a stabbing motion towards Wang Teng’s head.
The latter didn’t even try to move, reaching out and grabbing the creature’s wrist with a smiling face. “Why be so excited when meeting an old friend?”
Who’s your old friend!
Ukpur felt hopeless, realizing his current body was too weak to be that human’s opponent.
Wang Teng took away his dagger and said calmly, “Oh right, I have to thank you for finding this immaculate energy stone mine for me.”
“Pfft!” Ukpur almost vomited a mouthful of blood due to exasperation.
This is my immaculate energy stone mine!
That was a complete mine, not just one or two energy stones. How could he hand this wealth over to that human?
He wished he could slam his head against the wall when he thought of this ending.
“Don’t be that way. You still have my thanks,” Wang Teng consoled when he saw the creature’s expression.
“Human, you will die a terrible death.” Ukpur glared at Wang Teng with murder in his eyes, wishing he could bite the young man to pieces.
“Sigh, so insensible. I try to make you feel better out of the goodness of my heart yet you snap back at me.” Wang Teng sighed.
“I… !#@@¥~” Ukpur was so angry he found no words.
How could someone be so shameless?
“All right, let’s stop the nonsense and carry on with business.” Wang Teng gave the other an ambiguous smile. Then, a strange glimmer appeared in his eyes.
Enchantment!
Ukpur sensed that something was amiss, but Wang Teng’s eyes absorbed his consciousness like a bottomless whirlpool.
His vision turned black again, not knowing what was going on.
After some time passed, Ukpur gradually opened his eyes and looked at Wang Teng. He called him with respect, “Master!”
