Chapter 882 – Treasure
In the darkness, Qin Yu held onto a smooth and shining stone that was as large as his thump. This was the incomparably precious adamant stone found within the obam world.
Almost as soon as he entered the mine tunnels, Qin Yu had discovered that there was a strange energy contained within the adamant stones. This energy was able to resonate with the Ancient race.
Unfortunately, power contained within the adamant stone was far too weak. So weak that even if Qin Yu absorbed 100,000 of them there still wouldn’t be any visible change.
Qin Yu sighed and put away the adamant stone. He had a feeling that the power contained within these stones would be extremely important to him. He hoped he would have a chance to find them somewhere else in the future.
“Ahh!” There was a loud shout of surprise.
Qin Yu opened his eyes to see An Xin’s joyful expression. She stroked her face. Her wounds had regenerated and her scars had fallen off. There was nothing but pink skin below, without the slightest trace of damage.
“This is wonderful, this is too wonderful! Thank you, Big Brother Qin!”
Qin Yu smiled.
Then, his complexion suddenly changed. He frowned and looked towards the other end of the tunnel. A group of human slaves was rapidly catching up to this location.
The chaotic sound of footsteps soon rang out, mixed with a chilling roar, “Here they are! They actually dared to kill Second Brother Tu, none of them are allowed to survive!”
An Xin’s smile stiffened and she began to tremble. “Big Brother Qin….they are looking for me….”
Qin Yu frowned. It looked that the man he killed had some status within the mine tunnels. To think that these people found them all the way here.
He glanced at An Xin, “Don’t worry. Everything is going to be fine.”
Qin Yu stood up and walked towards the direction of the footsteps.
“Big Brother Qin!” An Xin quickly stood up, her hands nervously held together.
Silent Kite looked at her and lightly said, “Big Brother Qin will be fine. Nothing will happen to him so just stay here.”
Qin Yu had been able to break through the Great Dragon Overlord’s imprisonment. While his aura wasn’t particularly strong in Silent Kite’s senses, she always believed that he kept him true strength deeply hidden.
He was a genuine powerhouse!
Puff –
Puff –
There were dull thumping sounds echoing one after another throughout the mine tunnels. Shocked roars of anger followed, but everything soon fell silent.
Standing amidst a group of corpses, Qin Yu furrowed his eyebrows deep in thought. After some deliberation, he turned and walked over to An Xin, “Who is chasing you down? And you should be able to find him, right?”
An Xin nodded with a dull expression. She could clearly smell the strong scent of blood on Qin Yu’s body, one so deep that it was nearly condensed into essence.
Did those people just now all die…?
“Very good. Bring me to him.” Qin Yu flicked his sleeves, curling up the two people. He used his earth-attribute powers to shuttle through the stone and mud.
If they could be found here even while hiding, then this proved that the other party was considerably strong. If they continued to avoid them then they would be discovered sooner or later.
Rather than being chased down again and again, it was better to overturn the enemy nest so that there was less future trouble.
According to An Xin’s direction, two hours later Qin Yu appeared at the edge of a vast underground space.
A long time ago, a massive amount of adamant stones should have been buried here. After this area was excavated, it was repaired and rebuilt into its current state.
Ores of unknown nature were embedded into the stone walls. They barely managed to illuminate the surrounding area.
Qin Yu received his divine sense. He pointed a finger and brown light surged from the tip of his fingertips, forming a knuckle-sized bead that floated in the air.
“Wait here.”
He stepped forward. The stone split open and closed up behind him.
An hour later, Qin Yu had passed through the vast underground space. A middle-aged man knelt in front of him. His body was covered in scars and his blind eye was laid bare, making him appear particularly hideous.
But now, he shivered with fear. Where had this dark star come from and why was he attacking him?
“From now on I will have the final say here. Do you understand?”
The scarred man gulped. He nodded with effort and said, “You will be the leader from now on!”
Qin Yu lifted a hand. A drop of blood seeped out from his fingertip and slowly dripped between the man’s eyebrows.
The scarred man shook like a screen but he didn’t dare to move. He could feel the cold aura coming from Qin Yu. If he resisted at all, he would immediately die a miserable death!
Pa –
The blood drop fused between the man’s eyebrows, entering his body. A blood rune appeared, condensing into an ugly face before vanishing.
“From now on, your life is no longer your own. With just a thought I can make you suffer a life worse than death.”
Seeing Silent Kite and An Xin rise up from the ground, the scarred man was left stunned. He lowered his head and clenched his death. That damned useless bastard Tu Gang! If he was going to die then he should have died by himself! But now he was being dragged down too!
You’re lucky you died, otherwise I promise I would have captured you and given you a taste of true suffering!
“The magpie made a nest, but now the dove dwells there.” Qin Yu could finally cultivate in peace. But just as he entered a meditative state, he heard a knocking on the door.
He frowned and opened his eyes. He could sense An Xin outside so he suppressed his anger and opened the door. “What is it?”
An Xin had an apologetic expression. “I’m sorry Big Brother Qin. I didn’t mean to interrupt your cultivation but there is something I think I should tell you.”
Qin Yu moved to the side, “Come in.”
After An Xin entered, she didn’t delay and went straight to the point. “Big Brother Qin, I married someone in the mine tunnels. He told me that he once obtained a treasure. As long as he took it out, it would drive everyone in the mines crazy so he always kept it hidden in a secret room.”
She looked at Qin Yu. “Since Big Brother Qin Yu saved me and I have no other way to repay you, all I can do is tell you this information. Although my husband was never particularly strong, he was always cautious when he spoke. Since he considered it a treasure, it could be useful to Big Brother Qin.”
She lifted a hand and pulled down a necklace from her neck. “This pendant was made with a fragment that fell out during the mining process. Big Brother Qin, please take a look.”
After laying down the necklace, An Xin bid her farewells and left.
Qin Yu closed the door. He turned around and looked at the necklace, his face expressionless.
The repayment An Xin spoke of should have come from her conscience. But that didn’t necessarily mean she wasn’t trying to borrow his hand to avenge her husband.
Qin Yu didn’t like this feeling of being used. But after thinking about it, he picked up the necklace.
The pendant was warm to the touch and still carried the fragrance of a woman. But Qin Yu didn’t care about such things. His eyes widened as he stared at the gray, nail-sized stone hanging from the necklace.
This…this is…
Qin Yu turned his hand and took out an adamant stone. Carefully probing, he could sense the strange energy contained within the adamant stone. It came from the same source as the energy within the gray stone.
What was different was that the energy within the gray stone, whether it was quality or quantity, far surpassed that of the adamant stone.
To make a simpler analogy, if 100,000 adamant stones were refined and their energy was fused and compressed together, allowing it to undergo a qualitative change, what would be created was the energy within the gray stone…and, this was only a small part of it.
In other words, the strange energy contained within this tiny piece of gray stone in Qin Yu’s hand was equivalent to hundreds of thousands of adamant stones!
He drew in a deep breath and suppressed his tumbling thoughts. His two hearts rapidly beat within his chest. He could clearly feel his mortal body yearning for this stone.
With Qin Yu’s formidable will, he was almost unable to control himself and almost ate this stone.
Just what was it?
It didn’t matter. Looking at the Ancient race body’s response, it couldn’t be something bad.
Pa –
Qin Yu clenched his hand together and the stone shattered into powder. None of it sprinkled down. Rather, when it touched Qin Yu’s skin it melted into him.
In the next moment, Qin Yu subconsciously groaned. A blazing strength instantly swept through his body.
Piki paka –
This was the crackling of his flesh and blood and bone. Qin Yu could feel his body cheering. Every inch of flesh and blood, every bone, was undergoing an inconceivable change right now.
His mind was completely immersed in this feeling. After an unknown period of time passed, Qin Yu regained his composure. He could smell a rancid stench around him.
He opened his eyes to see a layer of thick black oil surrounding him; it was where the gut-churning smell was coming from.
Bodily impurities…it wasn’t just that. It also included the remnants from the countless internal injuries Qin Yu had suffered. Because of this stone, they had been expelled from his body.
Even the great strength of the Ancient race body was unable to do anything to these remnants. This stone was a treasure…an absolute treasure!
With a thought, flames appeared out of nowhere, instantly burning away all the oil around him. Qin Yu’s black robes were restored to normal. He clenched his fists together, feeling the formidable strength coursing through his body. He only had one thought in mind, and that was to find the remaining stone. He had to find it!
Even if he was really being used by An Xin, he wanted to be used even faster.
He pounded at An Xin’s door and said, “Bring me to your husband’s secret chamber.”
An Xin nodded.
