Li Zhengyang's gaze passed through the continuously splitting rock layers and fell into the depths underground.
Just moments ago, the Earth Vein Body had suddenly sent him an unusual sensation.
He narrowed his eyes.
"The vein below seems a little different."
Chen Yan froze for a moment, then hurriedly looked at the detector in his hand.
The data on the screen had completely spiraled out of control. The previously stable energy curve kept rising until it became a blinding field of red.
"Minister Li, the underground energy is still increasing."
Chen Yan swallowed, tapping the instrument several times in quick succession.
"It's at least eight hundred meters down. The detection range has been disrupted, so we can't determine the exact depth."
"Eight hundred meters?"
Zhong Shanli walked over with the Battle Saber resting on his shoulder and looked down at the crack beneath his feet.
"The previous two survey teams lost contact at this depth."
Li Zhengyang did not answer.
He recalled the documents he had seen when he first entered the mining area.
The course of the No. 7 Ore Belt was abnormal. The farther underground one went, the more likely equipment was to malfunction.
At the time, everyone had believed the vein's energy was simply too powerful and had interfered with the detection equipment.
Now, it seemed the problem was not that simple.
Li Zhengyang withdrew his spear and stepped forward.
Boom!
A wave of Blood Qi surged through the rock layers, sending shattered stones and dust flying at the same time.
Several team members behind Chen Yan hurriedly steadied the control console.
"Is he planning to punch straight through the entire mountain?"
"This is a Violet Vein Crystal mining area. If he misses even slightly, the vein will be ruined."
"Minister Li should know what he's doing."
