Chapter 350: I Have An Immortal Mine At Home

Clang clang!

Wang Xuan the miner was toiling away diligently. He had been digging continuously for eight days. Disciplined as he was, he hardly took any breaks, relentlessly chiseling and smashing away at the meteor.

"Its so hard, what kind of damn rock is this?!" said Wang Xuan with exhaustion. He began to question his life choices. Even with the Godslaying banner, he had only managed to dig a few meters deep.

The meteorite's texture was rough. He felt like he could kick a huge meteorite that blocked out the sky with just one foot, if this was in the real world. Now, he had kicked two thousand five hundred and twenty-three times. His soles were sore, his mouth dry, and his hair was smoking, yet there wasn't much effect.

He had already shaken the Godslaying Banner after some attempt. He let it enlarge in the wind, and he wielded the flagpole like an iron rod. Smashing it here and there, he caused sparks to fly and clang resound. The stone skin on the outer layer of the meteorite was two meters thick. It was relatively brittle, but the brown stones inside were much harder than the alloy plates made of copper and mithril.

"Becoming a seasoned miner is too difficult," Wang Xuan grumbled. He had never imagined that halfway through his cultivation journey, he would end up here, mining meteorite ore.

However, when he was six meters in, wisps of mist overflowed, substances that were close to the real energy were flowing out. Compared to the previous substances, its richness was a level higher. It prompted him to take a deep breath involuntarily. His spirit regained strength, it was replenished through mental respiration. The exhausted body felt like rain falling on the desert, it continued to absorb vitality. It was too comfortable.

On the fourteenth day, veteran miner Wang Xuan dug twelve meters deep. The color of the stones changed slightly. It transitioned to a light purple color, indicating that he was closer to substances that were closer to the real energy. He examined closely. The wisps of mist now carried a faint color, with a hint of purple radiance. It meant the substances were extremely high in quality!

"Dig! Is there a treasure inside? Should I keep it for the New Year? I want to see what's really inside the depths of the meteorite." Wang Xuan said skeptically. He didn't have to worry about the exhaustion of the trans material, nor the depletion of his strength.

Clang! Bang! Clatter! Thud!

He worked like a blacksmith, thrusting the flagpole into the crevices of the stones, chopping and kicking, using it as a lever, digging his way through with increasingly skillful movements.

With his muscles weary, he dug at the meteorite diligently. He viewed it as a form of cultivation. At the same time, he was indeed studying various martial art scriptures, such as some exquisite body techniques, which he used in the confined space. With a flick of his fingers, the Tao-splitting Sword was unleashed, its sword light shimmered and ringed. Each of his moves was like the Feather Fist, the Wings of Phoenix, and many other different techniques. He was performing various lost martial arts from the outside world to perfection.

Swoosh!

On this day, when expert miner Wang Xuan was twenty-six meters in, a purple mist drifted out from the cracks in the stone. Its energy was rich and astonishing. He took a deep breath of it, and he instantly felt as if was about to ascend, ready to transcend into immortality.

"Are we getting close? The rolling purple mist descends from the sky, turning red to purple. It's a sign of good luck!" He cheered himself on.

Nearly a month had passed, and now his skills were exquisite. He had officially been promoted to master miner Wang Xuan. At the current time, his movements were skilled, and his efficiency skyrocketed. In an instant, he was engulfed by the dense purple mist. He absorbed all of it and left none behind. At the same time, he replenished the flag with the absorbed energy.

"In the real world, cultivators greet the rising sun every morning, capturing the first strand of purple mist, which contains extraordinary material" pondered Wang Xuan.

He recalled from the books before transcendence receded. The purple mist that appeared with the sun was very precious. It was considered a kind of superior energy. He had reason to believe that the purple mist emerging from the flesh of the meteorite at a depth of over twenty meters was exactly that kind of substance, but it was too dense.

"Approaching the truth, I've found another new and extraordinary power, which can be collected on a large scale!" Wang Xuan rejoiced, realizing that the path of a miner was indeed rewarding.

Wang Xuan shrugged off his fatigue, his spirits soared. His eyes gleamed with excitement, eager to break through this vast and boundless meteorite. He couldnt wait to delve into the source of reality.

"I'll dig, I'll keep digging, and continue to dig deeper!" shouted Wang Xuan with his spirit full of energy. He felt that practicing his martial arts, using martial art scriptures, sword scripture, and the like, was truly equivalent to cultivation.

After each exhaustion, there was always high-level purple mist replenishing his spirit, which was also a form of alternative cultivation.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Countless sword-like lights illuminated the scene as Wang Xuan, without delaying his work, further immersed himself in intense cultivation. His entire body emitted sword-like lights, the scriptures behind the Tao-splitting Sword enveloped him, turning him into a wheel of swords.

At this moment, radiant sword energy was unleashed from every pore of his spiritual body. It permeated his entire being, transforming him into a celestial sword.

"I actually cultivated it here!" exclaimed Wang Xuan.

He was lost in thought. In the real world, while practicing with his physical body, he had caused his flesh and blood to splatter. He was injured multiple times with sword energy pierced through his body.

Here, he understood the fundamental mysteries of the sword scripture. The sword energy was gentle as water while within the body. It nurtured the body rather than harmed it.

Everything would change only when it was released outward. The killing intent would be as sharp as the light of destruction, with the imposing aura capable of engulfing thousands of miles and piercing through the vast sky.

Wang Xuan exerted all his strength while seated in meditation. In an instant, boundless light burst forth and filled the surroundings with sword energy that was dazzlingly and magnificent.

He appeared like a deity opening his eyes, exuding unparalleled holiness. Seated like a mountain, yet with the onslaught of killing intent bursting outwards. He resembled a radiant wheel that illuminated the whole area, with sword energy sweeping across the realm!

"Excellent, indescribably wonderful!" exclaimed Wang Xuan. His mind was tranquil, as he reaped great benefits while he practiced cultivation amidst mining and interpreted various supreme scriptures.

The purple mist descended as he continued his excavation. He dug to a depth of over thirty meters. The dense purple mist was on the verge of transforming into rosy clouds, enveloping his body.

"Am I about to reach it?" He felt that he was getting closer and closer to the real energy substance. The purple mist was astonishing, and its dense concentration was unyielding.

Now, he had reason to doubt whether the mysterious meteorite in the outer space blood pool had fallen from such a place back then.

The energy substance in the blood pool was similarly close to the truth. It fell from the void outside the domain. If they could find its source, the immortals would have gone to excavate it long ago.

It seemed like an untraceable stone, as the immortals had not been able to find anything along the path it left behind.

"However, the energy properties contained in that meteorite are somewhat different from what I have now. That one was very violent, and it attracted thunder, with a fierce aura. In comparison, the purple mist here is relatively tranquil, majestic, profound, and boundless."

Two months later, Wang Xuan had advanced to become the owner of the mine.

He felt that with the immortal mine at home, work wasn't really tiring. He was full of energy. Even if he temporarily exhausted himself and collapsed on the ground, he would quickly recover and start digging again!

"I should be near the end. I've dug ninety meters deep!" Wang Xuan said with joy and energy.

However, this illusion supported his dedicated mind until he reached a depth of one hundred and fifty meters. He started to feel a bit strained.

Was this an endless pit? Or had I not reached the end yet?

He clearly felt that fervent and vigorous fluctuation, but it always seemed like he was separated by a layer of stone, unable to truly approach it.

Moreover, the stones behind became more difficult to dig. Even with his increased efficiency, he often encountered sections as hard as sun gold.

"No, I have to get out of here. Let me check the time. That meteorite crater is about to spew out red energy substances that were close to the truth again." said Wang Xuan.

He feared being overwhelmed by the red clouds and being trapped here, which would be tragic.

The meteorite crater poured out every few months, with red clouds sweeping down from the sky like an ocean. This was the cause for the occasional red waves that occur in the Solitary Void.

"The terrain here is rather special, and it's far from that passage. If I seal off the entrance, could this become a peaceful haven?" Wang Xuan said to himself.

Wang Xuan didn't dare to risk his life. So he split off a wisp of his spiritual consciousness to stay here and see what would happen.

Then he fled and hid in a place that's far enough. Several days later, thunder roared behind the place he was hiding, as if two nebulae were colliding. Terrifying sounds accompanied boundless red clouds, engulfing everything.

After the long wait, everything was calm again. Wang Xuan returned and once again came under the vast and boundless meteorite that made the sky feel like it was pressing down. He found his mine once again.

"It really didn't affect here?" he rejoiced. The residual scent of red substance here was very weak. After removing the stones blocking the entrance, he ventured deeper in.

"Mmm, my spiritual imprint is intact and doing well. Nourished by the purple mist every day, he's become even more resilient." said Wang Xuan while he retracted that spiritual imprint.

"My strength is advancing!" he exclaimed with a hint of excitement. Indeed, over the past few months, he had been diligently cultivating and nourishing his weary body with ample amounts of high-level mystical substances. His cultivation had been steadily improving.

And so, master miner Wang Xuan, resumed his digging. He cheered himself on with the Victory Method of the Spirit. He was about to reach the end. The path ahead was sometimes so tough it drove him mad, but at other times, it was smooth sailing, which greatly increased his efficiency.

Over the course of more than a year, he dug out a tunnel extending over four hundred meters. Then, one day, with a gut feeling, he sensed that he was about to uncover something.

Clang!

He dug out a space, and the purple mist poured out like a waterfall. It nearly knocked him off his feet. He almost tumbled down, it was like getting hit by a bursting dam.

"The purple energy from the Purple Palace descends from the heavens, it is a sign of great fortune!" Wang Xuan rushed in. It was an open area that resembled a tunnel. Yet, it also resembled a natural mine shaft.

The cave was filled with copious amounts of purple mist. It was so dense it shimmered, bathing his entire body like ethereal light.

"What a fantastic place! Next time, I'll plant a Heavenly Herb here. I'll also transplant the medicinal plant that Zheng Yuantian gave me, along with some of the life soil!"

Wang Xuan believed that if he were to transport the life soil and plant the Heavenly Herb here, the journey connecting to the meteorite would inevitably be greatly shortened. This was about occupying and pioneering.

Moreover, he speculated whether planting two or three vibrant medicinal plants in succession would trigger a qualitative change, leading to phenomena like shrinking the earth into inches or traveling thousands of miles in a single step.

"With the immortal mine at home, I'll plant the Heavenly Herb!" exclaimed Wang Xuan. After waiting for the purple mist to dissipate slightly, he began to explore. He advanced along the meteorite mine.

"This should be a natural mine pit. After all, it's within the vast meteorite." He hesitated for a moment, otherwise the situation would be complicated.

The master miner Wang Xuan became solemn as he lifted the Godslaying Banner. He was alert and observant. He found that this ancient and profound mine cave seemed to be naturally formed. There were no traces of pickaxes or spells, everything appeared to be natural.

Inside the cave, the purple mist shimmered. It was sacred and serene, with no apparent danger. He murmured to himself, "Could it be that the morning purple energy in the real world seeped out from such places?"

It was very peaceful here. Wang Xuan was searching for entirely new transcendence power. He was forging ahead when he unexpectedly arrived at such a place, which was quite strange. Suddenly, the purple mist twinkled, and a pleasant laughter came through. Startled, Wang Xuan tightened his grip on the Godslaying Banner. He was ready to strike at any moment as if he was facing a great enemy. It was too sudden, why were there people in the depths of the meteorite?!

It was quite absurd; he had been mining for over a year, but where exactly had he ended up?

"The master miner Wang Xuan won't let anyone snatch away the immortal mine and revert back to being the novice miner Wang, right? No way!" He opened his spiritual eyes and examined carefully.

He saw no one. The cave was filled with purple mist like flower petals, fluttering down splendidly. It resembled a shower of celestial light.

"No way, could it be that I've dug through to the Realm of Truth? Am I about to reach the source?!" He was stunned; if that were the case, then he would truly be turning the tables.

However, after the laughter faded, there was no more movement. No more sound was heard, and no figure appeared.

Honestly speaking, that laughter was very pleasant, like it came from a young woman. Initially, it startled him, but afterward, it felt serene and sacred. The laughter was without any unsettling or eerie feeling.

Instinctively, he felt that this place wasn't a dangerous one. On the contrary, the farther he went, the more splendid it became. The purple light illuminated the mining path as if fairy trees were shedding leaves and petals.

After searching fruitlessly for a long time, Wang Xuan put away his spiritual eyes. However, not long after, another anomaly occurred. Laughter echoed, and a scene flashed in the purple mist ahead.

A majestic purple palace appeared. It was grand and magnificent, capable of moving and disappearing in an instant. It seemed like a beautiful woman was leaning against the railing, her smile was captivating.

Wang Xuan frowned, but he still followed along. If something were to happen, it was too late to retreat now. Rather than that, it was better to boldly venture forward.

He ran quickly while keeping his spiritual eyes open, trying to lock onto the purple palace, anchoring his sight on the figure that was enveloped in the celestial mist and purple light.

In truth, the master miner Wang Xuan was somewhat uncertain. The most important question was: who owned the magnificent palace and the woman that was in his own immortal mine?
