Mining Universe Crystals
Hearing Xu Qing say this, Luo Feng and the others understood.
Just as Babata said, Xu Qing has mastered both the domain and the Origin Law.
"My God, you need to reach the Sevenfold Domain to even begin to comprehend the Origin Law. I'm so envious!" Thor exclaimed, his eyes brimming with envy.
He's only at the first level of the domain, a far cry from his current level.
"What's the rush? You can't rush it," Hong patted him on the shoulder.
"Of course you're not in a hurry, Elder Brother. You're at the third level, and you're still four levels away from the seventh level. I'm only at the first level," Thor thought, feeling a bit frustrated. How come he was the only one who was so weak out of the four of them?
Hong laughed. What did this have to do with them?
Luo Feng also smiled. Although his domain was still at the second level, he had already comprehended the Origin Law of Gold by using the body of the Golden Horned Behemoth.
Moreover, the secret technique <Absolute Space> is also showing promise, and it shouldn't be long before we can glimpse the Origin Law of Space, all thanks to Xu Qing's guidance.
"Don't worry, second brother, we'll have bread, we'll have everything," Xu Qing comforted him earnestly.
However, Thor was not comforted at all; instead, he felt a little sad and depressed.
"Alright, we've got the Single-Horned Iron Rhino. Next, we need to find the Wind Horn Stone. It's in the Wind and Wind Horn Stone Wind-Thunder Canyon, which is quite far from here. We'll cultivate as we travel. I feel that cultivating in this Thunder World will be more effective," Hong interrupted.
Hearing Hong say that, Luo Feng and Thor felt the same way.
"It seems like there is a little bit," Xu Qing thought for a moment and agreed.
"This is because you previously used the S-Type Bloodline Evolution Agent, which raised your bloodline level and allowed you to absorb more cosmic energy. Moreover, this Thunder World is filled with even higher-level Universe Origin Energy."
"And the gravity here is 3,900 times that of Earth, so it's like being in Gravity Room. Even if you do nothing, you'll still have the effect of cultivation," Babata explained.
After listening to Babata's explanation, Luo Feng and the others understood.
"Let's go, head towards Wind-Thunder Canyon!"
The Thunder World is teeming with ferocious beasts, and even with Babata as a warning device, Xu Qing and his group still moved very slowly.
In addition, one must stop from time to time to cultivate and hone one's skills.
Aside from a few particularly troublesome ferocious beasts and herds that Xu Qing had to deal with, Luo Feng and his group were responsible for the rest.
More than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
Xu Qing and his group were still some distance from Wind-Thunder Canyon.
During this month, Hong and Thor were the first to break through, followed by Xu Qing and Luo Feng.
"I must say, the training here is really effective, much faster," Xu Qing stretched.
Compared to when he was outside, his cultivation speed has increased significantly. At this rate, he could break through to the Stellar Level Seven in less than a year.
Luo Feng nodded. "Indeed."
His Spiritual Force Earthling Clone has broken through to the Star Level 4, while his Warrior level only broke through to the Stellar Level One after using the S-Type Bloodline Evolution Agent last time.
"It wasn't easy, I've finally reached the Stellar Level Three. I feel like my domain is about to break through after cultivating here for so long. This place is really great," Thor said, his face beaming with joy.
"Congratulations, Second Brother," Luo Feng said with a smile.
"Haha," Thor nodded.
Then, Xu Qing and his group continued their journey, heading towards the Wind-Thunder Canyon.
Almost two months had passed since Xu Qing and his group entered the Thunder World, Xu Qing they finally arrived at the Wind-Thunder Canyon.
A magnificent mountain range sits there, seemingly shrouded in snowflakes. The sky is dark, but in reality, it's not snowflakes; it's just a fierce wind carrying countless stones.
Above, thunderclouds surged, lightning flashed, and deafening thunder roared.
"This is Wind-Thunder Canyon? My God, there's thunder above and wind blowing below!" Xu Qing and the others were shocked by what they saw.
This wasn't just any ordinary thunder or wind; it was incredibly terrifying.
"According to the intelligence, these winds grow stronger the closer you get to the depths of the canyon, and they contain Universe Origin Energy that can turn even Universe Level into dust."
"However, there are more Wind Horn Stone in the depths of the canyon, and many more are floating in the air," Hong Ningsheng said.
"The most dangerous thing is lightning. If you get too close to the sky, you're likely to get struck. Any metal on your body will attract it," Thor added.
"There's a great spot there to hide," Babata said.
Guided by Babata, Xu Qing and his group arrived at a corner of the canyon edge, where a rock blocked the entrance to a cave.
Xu Qing and the others moved the rocks aside, went inside, and then covered the rocks back up.
"Babata, amazing! You even managed to find a place like this," Thor said, giving a thumbs up.
Babata smiled smugly, "That's right, don't you know who I am?"
The four walked into the cave, and at the end was a light-filled opening, about thirty centimeters wide, through which they could see the Wind-Thunder Canyon.
"Huh, could this be Wind Horn Stone?" Hong looked down at his feet and stepped on a small, bluish-black stone.
He picked up the stone, and everyone looked over. "It really is Wind Horn Stone; it seems to have been blown in through this cave by the wind."
"We're so lucky to have found a Wind Horn Stone here," Thor exclaimed.
Xu Qing peered through the cave entrance, his eyes sparkling with colorful light. He stared at the opposite mountain wall, or more accurately, the mountain range.
There was an extremely strong spatial fluctuation in the mountains over there, even surpassing the fluctuations of wind and thunder attributes in the Wind and Wind-Thunder Canyon.
In Xu Qing's Mind's Eye, it was quite obvious.
"Strange, is it just my imagination? But my Mind's Eye can't be wrong, there's something there," Xu Qing muttered to himself.
"Xiao Qing, what are you looking at?" Luo Feng noticed that Xu Qing was unusually quiet and asked.
Xu Qing snapped out of his daze and looked at everyone. "I saw very strong spatial fluctuations in the mountains opposite. I'm sure I'm not mistaken; there might be something hidden there."
Hearing Xu Qing say this, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then looked outside. But they were not Mind's Eye and had not comprehended the Origin Law of Space, so of course they could not see anything.
"Xu Qing, are you telling the truth?" Babata suddenly became interested.
"Yes, it's right there. My Mind's Eye can see it," Xu Qing nodded.
Babata thought for a moment; back on Canglan Planet, it had looked up some information about this Thunder World.
There are many secrets among them.
It is said that this Thunder World belongs to a World Lord named Kabu.
The World Lord Kabu had amassed many treasures during his lifetime. After his death, this Thunder World was taken over by the Universe Mercenary Alliance.
However, the Universe Mercenary Alliance searched the entire Thunder World, inside and out, but failed to find Kabu's valuable treasures. As a result, the Universe Mercenary Alliance used the Thunder World as a testing ground.
If the Universe Mercenary Alliance had known about the existence of World-within-a-World, they would never have done this.
"Elder Brother, that might be a World-within-a-World a realm," Akaro said at this moment.
"World-within-a-World?" Everyone was very curious.
Babata also thought it was very likely, "That's right, it should be World-within-a-World. The original owner of this Thunder World may have hidden all his treasures in World-within-a-World."
Then, Babata explained what World-within-a-World is.
It's very simple; it's about creating a smaller world within the larger world. But this requires a lot of effort, especially the use of a large amount of Universe Crystal.
"Universe Crystal! There must be a lot of Universe Crystal in the World-within-a-World, as well as the treasures of that World Lord Kabu!" Babata became a little excited.
It looked at Xu Qing, "Xu Qing, can you see the frequency of the spatial fluctuations there? How fast is it?"
Xu Qing stared at the scene for a dozen seconds, then nodded. "The spatial fluctuations are quite rapid, and it even seems a bit chaotic."
Upon hearing this answer, Babata burst into laughter, "Your luck has arrived! It seems this World-within-a-World is about to collapse and be exposed."
Hearing Babata say that, everyone was excited; this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
The Universe Crystal, and a treasure hidden by a World Lord —if we could even get our hands on a little bit of it, we'd be rich.
"Just wait. According to Xu Qing, it will take at most one or two months, or at least ten days, for that World-within-a-World to be revealed and the entrance to open. Then you can just rush in," Babata said.
"Okay," everyone agreed. What are Wind Horn Stone and Universe Trainee Mercenary Assessment compared to treasure?
Xu Qing looked over there and said, "There are many teams over there too. Could they accidentally open the entrance to the World-within-a-World?"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at him, because Xu Qing's words sometimes really came true.
"Xu Qing, your mouth is blessed, so stop saying things like that in the future," Babata complained.
It still remembers the last incident very clearly.
"It takes skill for me to be able to say it correctly, but can you?" Xu Qing rolled her eyes.
Babata shook his head. "Of course not, I'm not a jinx."
"If you call me a jinx again, I'll use it all on you," Xu Qing threatened.
Babata shut up obediently this time; it didn't want to break the law.
"That's possible, we just need to be more careful," Hong interrupted.
One day... two days... three days...
As time passed, Xu Qing and his group did nothing but wait for the World-within-a-World to be exposed.
On the fifth day, the entire Thunder World began to tremble violently.
"A divine mouth," Luo Feng and the others looked at Xu Qing with complicated expressions.
Xu Qing was right; someone had triggered the entrance to that World-within-a-World.
"Can't you speak properly? From now on, please call me the Prophet," Xu Qing glared at them.
At that moment, a black hole appeared above the mountain range, distorting the surrounding space.
"World-within-a-World, World-within-a-World!"
Almost immediately, someone shouted out, recognizing what it was.
Immediately, everyone rushed out frantically, their eyes burning with fervor, heading straight for the black hole.
"Let's go too," Luo Feng and the others were somewhat surprised to see this scene. As expected of Warrior from various major forces, they were knowledgeable and recognized the World-within-a-World immediately.
Xu Qing and the others immediately set off and flew into the black cave.
At the same time, people from those forces contacted the outside world through the Virtual Universe and reported on the events within the World-within-a-World.
This event immediately caused a sensation, and countless powerful figures rushed to Canglan Planet, Domain Lord and even World Lord.
Within World-within-a-World, it is now night, with only a faint light flickering.
"Babata, do you have a way to find the Universe Crystal?" Luo Feng asked.
"Of course, it's not difficult at all. Just keep flying in one direction. I'll make you stop if there's anything," Babata said.
"Okay," Xu Qing and the others then flew off in one direction.
Babata quickly stopped them, saying, "There are Universe Crystal underground, start digging."
"Let me do it," Xu Qing manipulated the Blood Soul Spider Silk, condensing it into the shape of a drill, about the size of a palm, which spun wildly under the control of his mental power.
Sizzle!
The palm-sized, blood-red drill bit swiftly drilled into the ground, soon reaching the rock layer, but even the rock layer was no different from the soil layer.
Soon, the drill reached the location of the Universe Crystal.
A deep blue light spread out, and a huge crystal appeared—this was the Universe Crystal.
Xu Qing looked at Luo Feng, "Brother-in-law, we're counting on you and Babata."
"Understood," Luo Feng used the Mo Yun Vine, along with the bracelet that Babata resided in, to probe into the ground and store the large piece of Universe Crystal into his storage space.
"Done," Luo Feng said, putting away the Mo Yun Vine and the bracelet. He now had a large piece of Universe Crystal in his hands.
The whole process took less than ten minutes, which is incredibly efficient.
"Perfect teamwork," Xu Qing and Luo Feng clapped their hands.
It's a pity Babata doesn't have a physical form, otherwise it would have come too.
"Let's go, keep going," the four continued forward. With Babata around, they could dig wherever they found a spot.
Within this World-within-a-World, the place with the most Universe Crystal is undoubtedly the center of the world, a fact known to everyone.
Therefore, Xu Qing and his group might as well dig around there. Even if they dig for Universe Crystal in the surrounding area, they could still find a considerable amount.
As Xu Qing continued digging, he discovered a pattern: where there were Universe Crystal, the flow of Universe Origin Energy was much slower because the density was much higher.
His Mind's Eye can see the flow of energy, even the flow of the Universe Origin Energy.
"Over here... over here... over here..."
Xu Qing pointed out several directions and stated the specific distances.
"Xu Qing, can you see the flow of the Universe Origin Energy?" Babata guessed something.
"Hmm," Xu Qing nodded.
"I knew it!" Babata exclaimed in amazement; this ability was truly enviable.
Over the course of several days, with the cooperation of Xu Qing and Babata, they would pass by a place and take away all the Universe Crystal there, leaving not a single one behind.
The news of the World-within-a-World has surely spread to the outside world, and they may be expelled from it.
Before that, they need to mine as many Universe Crystal as possible.
However, what Xu Qing and the others didn't know was that some things had also happened outside the Thunder World, causing the assessment to continue, and a large number of Star Level ninth-tier Warrior would be entering the Thunder World.
In the blink of an eye, ten days have passed.
"Strange, why is there still no movement outside? So much time has passed since the news of the appearance of the World-within-a-World appeared, why haven't those powerful figures outside come in yet?" Xu Qing and the others were all puzzled.
They were all prepared to be kicked out, but ten days have passed and the Universe Mercenary Alliance hasn't made a move.
This is a bit unusual. Could something have happened outside?
