" Senior Sister, it's me."

Looking at his Senior Sister, who was still in shock, covered in wounds, and extremely weak, Chen Changming felt complicated and sighed softly.

He used his own voice for this sentence.

Therefore, Luo Lan immediately recognized it.

"Junior brother, how could it be you? Am I... am I dreaming?"

Luo Lan's voice became dazed, and she suddenly pinched her thigh, a sharp pain shooting into her brain.

This is not a dream.

Luo Lan immediately regained her senses.

She stared blankly at Chen Changming, her eyes filled with confusion.

How did Junior Brother escape from the Lingxiao Sect?

How did they find Seven Paths Ridge and then dig a tunnel through it?

Inside the mine, facing so many Qi Refining Realm disciples of the Xiaguang Sect, what kind of Divine Ability did Junior Brother use to kill them all?

One thought after another surfaced in my mind.

Chen Changming took a deep breath and said in a low voice, " Senior Sister, I know you have many questions, but please don't ask anymore. I also have my own difficulties."

"I see."

Luo Lan immediately shut her mouth and didn't ask any more questions.

Everyone in this world has secrets, more or less, and the junior brother is no exception.

She had never underestimated her junior brother's strength, but she never expected him to be so powerful.

When his junior brother was learning the Lingxiao Sword Technique at the Lingxiao Sect, he displayed great talent. At that time, Luo Lan felt that his junior brother's future achievements were limitless.

Later, after the Lingxiao Sect was taken over by the Xiaguang Sect, she sold all her possessions to buy Foundation Establishment, just because she had high hopes for her junior brother.

She hoped her junior brother would break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm as soon as possible.

"Thank you for your understanding, senior sister."

Chen Changming took a deep breath and said with great gratitude.

He had always been grateful to his Senior Sister.

In his short forty years of life, he experienced all kinds of hardships, and no more than three people were truly sincere to him, with his Senior Sister being one of them.

Chen Changming, who knows how to be grateful, has always cherished this precious friendship.

So when his Senior Sister was in trouble this time, he finally stopped hiding and risked his life to save Senior Sister.

Fortunately, he was extremely lucky this time Spirit-Devouring Insect returned in time, allowing his rescue plan to come to a perfect end.

A silver light silently emerged from the soil and flew into Chen Changming's palm.

Seeing that the Silver Thread Heart-Devouring Insect had returned safely, Chen Changming breathed a sigh of relief.

Now, we must leave immediately.

He had already discussed it with the Spirit-Devouring Insect; after half an incense stick's time, the Spirit-Devouring Insect would unleash Spirit Energy Storm.

The reason Chen Changming was in such a hurry was that he feared things might change if he delayed.

If the Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Xiaguang Sect come in to patrol and discover so many dead people in the mine, and then find a tunnel and follow them down the tunnel, then he will have no chance of escaping.

Only if the Spirit-Devouring Insect quickly unleash Spirit Energy Storm can they annihilate all the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Xiaguang Sect within the First Path Ridge.

That way, he and Luo Lan will be safe.

" Senior Sister, this place is not safe, we must leave immediately..."

Chen Changming said urgently.

"Okay." Luo Lan nodded, her face also solemn.

Chen Changming squatted down, carried his Senior Sister on his back, and then activated the Dragon Glide Step, disappearing into the vast forest like a ghost.

"Wow, that's fast!"

Feeling the wind whistling in her ears and unable to see her surroundings clearly, Luo Lan was immediately terrified.

How could the Dragon Glide Step possess such terrifying power on my junior brother, who is only at the tenth level of Qi Refining?

"Oh, right, when Junior Brother learned the Lingxiao Sword Technique, its power was just as strong..."

Luo Lan thought to herself.

At this moment, she vaguely realized that no matter what Cultivation Method her junior brother learned, the power he cultivated would be much stronger than that of ordinary people.

Is this what enlightenment is?

Even though the junior brother has poor Spirit Root, he has strong comprehension. Once he devotes all his energy to cultivating a Cultivation Method, he can often make that Cultivation Method unleash even greater power.

The mountain wind was cold, Luo Lan forced herself to remain silent.

At that moment, Chen Changming only wanted to escape and did not notice the changes in his Senior Sister on his back.

After half an incense stick's time, he had already escaped hundreds of miles.

He still didn't stop.

Chen Changming was also afraid that if something happened at First Path Ridge, the other sects would send Foundation Establishment cultivators to search everywhere.

Buzzing...

The Spirit-Devouring Insect deep within the Spirit Vein flapped their wings, causing the entire Spirit Vein to begin to boil, creating an astonishing spectacle.

"What's wrong?"

Huang Tianqi opened his eyes and suddenly felt that the Spiritual Qi in the Spirit Vein Chamber was more turbulent than before.

Boom!

He was about to leave the Spirit Vein Chamber when he suddenly heard a loud bang from underground, and a dazzling white light flashed before his eyes. A terrifying power instantly swept over from all directions.

Huang Tianqi's body was instantly blasted to smithereens by the terrifying explosive force, leaving not even ashes behind.

The other Foundation Establishment stage high-ranking members of the Xiaguang Sect in the Spirit Vein Chamber, including the sect leader, were also engulfed by the explosion and perished on the spot.

This force was so powerful that it caused the entire mountain range to collapse. None of the Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Xiaguang Sect who were guarding the outside were spared from this immense power.

A powerful force spread outwards.

"What is this? Oh no, run!"

The Foundation Establishment cultivators guarding the mine entrances in the other mountain ranges scattered in terror when they saw the terrifying white light spreading out.

Some people were slow and were hit by the white light on the spot, but fortunately they used defensive treasures or talismans in time and were only seriously injured.

Most people are fine.

Especially deep in the mountains, those high-level Foundation Establishment from various sects who cultivated in the Spirit Vein Chamber were protected by the mountains and remained completely unharmed.

Streaks of sword light flew out of the mine and hovered above Seven Paths Ridge.

Dozens of Foundation Establishment cultivators stared in horror at the First Path Ridge that had been reduced to ruins, their eyes filled with confusion.

What exactly happened?

Why would a Spirit Vein within First Path Ridge experience an explosion of this magnitude?

" Xiaguang Sect is finished!"

A black-robed man at the peak of the tenth level of the Foundation Establishment sighed softly, a complex expression on his face.

In the long-standing fierce battle between the two great cultivation Immortal Realm of the Chu Kingdom and Yan Kingdom, the Xiaguang Sect also made great contributions to the Chu Kingdom's victory.

That's why they were allocated a Spirit Vein and the corresponding Spirit Vein mine.

This explosion wiped out almost all of the Foundation Establishment level leaders of the Xiaguang Sect, and from then on, the Xiaguang Sect would never recover.

He couldn't help but feel a sense of being discarded like a rabbit after it's caught.

"Fellow cultivators, the Spirit Vein of Seven Paths Ridge are still unstable. We must proceed with caution and refrain from entering for the time being..."

A sect leader in white robes spoke in a deep voice.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Before figuring out why the Spirit Vein exploded, it's not advisable to begin cultivation, but mining can continue without interruption.

Anyway, those miners were just ordinary people, their lives as insignificant as ants.

The junior disciples in the Qi Refining Realm who were in charge of supervising the construction were also worthless.

So be it, I'm dead.

The leaders of the remaining six major sects issued orders to send two Foundation Establishment cultivators deep into the mine to investigate the condition of the Spirit Vein.

However, to everyone's surprise...

A deafening roar suddenly erupted from the depths of the Third Mountain Ridge, causing the entire mountain to collapse instantly, sending a blast of air soaring into the sky.
