At the center of the mine's lowest level was a massive pool of energy fluid.
The liquid continuously emitted fluorescent light with low-frequency pulse energy, illuminating dozens of drilling platforms as it churned thickly.
At the farthest end of the pool floated industrial waste and several miners' bodies that had not been retrieved in time.
Celestials' tissue fluid was extremely dangerous. It was highly corrosive and could easily melt ordinary protective suits.
Therefore, miners working on the pool's surface had to wear heavy equipment to protect themselves, even while on drilling platforms.
It was also unstable; the slightest improper handling could trigger an explosion.
That was the main reason people had initially believed it could be used as fuel.
At the same time, miners collecting tissue fluid and ore had to rotate positions regularly.
Workers exposed to the tissue fluid for extended periods would suffer auditory hallucinations, leading to neurasthenia and insomnia.
In severe cases, they would develop mental disorders and completely lose their minds.
Some experts called it a form of psychic contamination.
Su Ming did not care about any of that.
After his earlier experiment, this tissue fluid had proven beneficial and harmless to him.
Bathing in it felt fucking incredible.
It was like his body and soul were getting a massage at the same time...
Before he had even had enough, the little pool's energy was depleted, so Su Ming turned his attention to the largest pool.
Rather than a pool, it was more accurately described as a lake.
It was so vast and its surface so conspicuous that Su Ming could not ignore it even if he wanted to.
Splash!
Without another word, he transformed into a streak of light and plunged headfirst toward a concealed spot.

Su Ming's actions triggered the sensors above the
