(For free.) Ye Feng's palm suddenly had an additional small beast, this small beast was shaped like a pangolin, covered in hard scales.

  Everyone didn't recognize what this little beast was, even the cultivators of the demon clan were at a loss.

  Ye Feng put the small beast on the ground and said, "Xiao Jia, today whether you live or die depends entirely on you." As he spoke, Ye Feng tightly grasped the small beast's tail with his palm.

  The little beast stretched out its sharp front claws and stirred the ground, mud and gravel stirring up, and then the little beast's shadow disappeared, Ye Feng also followed the little beast and disappeared into the ground, leaving only a bit of fresh mud on the ground, showing everything that had just happened.

  "This is Crystal Beast!" Bull Blast shouted as he was the first one to react.

  When they heard Niu Lie Tian's words, Lao Mang and Qing Song also remembered what the small beast released by Ye Feng was. Only the legendary Jing Shi Beast had this ability, able to take its master into the underground.

  Good heavens! What kind of person have I run into? The old blind man is simply at his wit's end.

  A small Qi-refining period cultivator, yet he possesses all sorts of treasures and spiritual beasts that make everyone jealous. Could it be that he is really a nameless disciple from the Wanghai Sect?

  The Wanghai faction has such a disciple, and the day of revival is probably just around the corner!

  The old blind man put away the trap he had set up with great difficulty for a day, this trap was the result of the old blind man's painstaking efforts, and it would not be an exaggeration to call it a heavenly net. Not to mention a cultivator in the Qi Refining stage, even a Foundation Establishment peak or an ordinary Golden Elixir would fall into it and regret it.

  The old blind man was now more regretful than ever, and he really hadn't expected Ye Feng to escape, missing by just one layer of netting.

  All powerful cultivators released their divine sense, trying to track Ye Feng's movements.

  At first, he could still sense that Ye Feng was desperately heading downwards. When they reached a certain depth, they gradually lost track of Ye Feng's trail.

  Using divine sense to track, one can investigate very far in the air. It is said that the old monsters of the Yuan Ying period can control the dynamics of over a thousand miles away, but underground it's completely impossible due to various factors blocking them. Old blind masters at this level can only feel within several hundred meters below. When Ye Feng entered the ground one thousand meters deep, everyone could no longer sense Ye Feng's movements.

  But Ye Feng didn't dare to stay, he didn't know the effective range of other people's divine consciousness, and was still desperately shuttling down. Xiao Jia's forelimbs were sturdy and powerful, whether it was mud or stone, they were all flipped open in an instant, passing through and going away.

  Feeling about right, Ye Feng directed Xiaojia to move forward in a straight line.

  But this is what Ye Feng can do, others even with the crystal beast may not be able to travel underground for a long time, it's not like meditation, can adjust breathing to be imperceptible, or control not breathing for a long time, this is escaping, needs big mouthfuls of fresh air.

  Staying underground for a long time without coming out, the cultivators in the Qi Refining stage would probably have suffocated to death.

  As soon as Yefeng felt a bit suffocated, he immediately entered the inner world of his body to rest for a while before continuing on.

  Underground, Ye Feng himself was not clear how long it had been, anyway he felt like it had passed for several centuries, according to his idea, now they must have shaken off the old blind men far away, and then commanded the small armor to climb up to the ground.

  "Ah!" The air between heaven and earth is great! Ye Feng shook off the mud on his body and looked around.

  What a desolate place this is!

  Released from spiritual perception, I couldn't feel any breath, it seems that I really got rid of those old blind men.

  Ye Feng sat on a large rock, carefully observing his surroundings. The desolate and uninhabited area made it impossible to tell where he was.

  Helpless, Ye Feng had no choice but to release a flying sword and ride it, aiming in one direction, flying forward.

  The next day, a high mountain appeared in sight.

  Suddenly, the small armor on the flying sword struggled, and it seemed to be rushing towards the high mountain in front.

  Ye Feng's heart skipped a beat. Had Xiao Jia discovered something? The Crystal Beast had existed since ancient times and was naturally sensitive to all kinds of crystals.

  Could it be that there is a crystal ore vein on the high mountain in front? Ye Feng was frightened by his own thoughts, if so, then he would have made a fortune.

  Ye Feng now needs crystal stones the most. He is stuck at the critical point of building his foundation, unable to break through, and what he lacks are precisely crystal stones.

  Ye Feng originally had enough crystal stones on him to build his foundation, but in order to buy Lao Mang's map, he paid the price of thirteen high-quality pure crystal stones, resulting in his storage bag being empty.

  Ye Feng thought that the first thing he would do after leaving the Small World was to go to the branch of the Appraisal Pavilion, to withdraw some crystal stones and break through the foundation.

  Now there are crystal stones delivered to the door, it seems that God is not always against oneself, sometimes God also stands on one's side.

  Ye Feng felt exhilarated and rode his flying sword towards the high mountain.

  In a place dozens of miles away from the high mountain, Ye Feng got off the flying sword and hid his breath well. He slowly approached the high mountain, being careful as if driving a boat for ten thousand years. Ye Feng believed that if this mountain had crystal ore veins, there must be a powerful force holding it.

  It's unheard of that the mine doesn't have a master, these mines are all supporting the foundation for a power to survive and thrive. The Wang Hai Sect was once glorious because it had the crystal mine, but after the crystal mine dried up, the Wang Hai Sect gradually declined until it became the lowest sect in the cultivation world.

  After this experience, Ye Feng deeply understood the situation of the Xiu Zhen world. Although Gong Sun Hui, the leader of the Wang Hai sect, seemed to be high and mighty, in reality it was not so, he could only show off on his own turf.

  Ye Feng estimated that even if Lao Mangzi were alone, he could still wipe out the Wang Hai faction. In comparison, the Wang Hai faction was really too insignificant.

  He slowly moved forward, and the dozens of miles of road took Ye Feng a day to walk. He didn't dare to use even a bit of spiritual energy, fearing that he would be discovered.

  Whenever there is any wind blowing or Ye Feng thinks it's unsafe, he immediately enters the inner world of his body, which is an absolutely safe guarantee. No one will discover his tracks and ensure that Ye Feng won't startle the snake by hitting the grass.

  In the late afternoon, Ye Feng arrived at the foot of the high mountain.

  From a distance, looking at the high mountains, they are dark and lying there, like an ancient giant beast.

  Ye Feng carefully observed every detail and suddenly discovered a small opening near the middle of the mountain, which would not have been noticed if he hadn't looked closely.

  Enduring the patience of a child for quite a while, just before sunset, Ye Feng discovered that there was movement at the entrance of the cave.

  A group of tattered people came out from inside, and those who welcomed them were also a group of people dressed in rags, walking towards the entrance.

  It seems that everyone's spirit is depressed and there are several guys holding whips beside them, occasionally whipping these people.

  Ye Feng estimated that this was absolutely the entrance and exit of the Crystal Mine. If he wanted to get the crystal, he had to think of a way to enter from the entrance.

  Relying on Xiao Jia's agility to enter, it's simply impossible. Since it's a crystal mine vein, the defense here is absolutely impenetrable. With a slight movement of the ground, I estimate that others will clearly feel it. Otherwise, if someone digs from another direction towards the crystal mine, wouldn't they be attacking from behind and obtaining the crystal?

  Ye Feng didn't dare take this risk, startling the snake in the grass was the most unwise move.

  The sky gradually darkened, and Ye Feng approached halfway up the mountain.

  Most people think that the second half of the night is a moment when defensive forces are relatively weak, but this is completely wrong. If you can think of it, how could others not think of their defensive strength? Relatively speaking, the second half of the night is often the moment when defensive forces are strongest.

  It was just at dusk when it was the best time near the middle of the mountain waist.

  Doing the opposite is the most unexpected way.

  Gradually getting closer, Ye Feng controlled his breathing and breath.

  Even here, you can hear the sound of voices. Ye Feng stopped in his tracks and thoroughly concealed himself to observe a low-rise building not far away.

  These buildings were all camouflaged and looked like big rocks from a distance, while others were built underground with only a small exit.

  As he observed, Ye Feng found that below ground were the dwellings of those miners, while the buildings on the surface should be for guarding residences.

  Ye Feng observed while thinking of a solution.

  "Psst!" A faint rustling sound came from a short distance away, and if he hadn't been paying close attention, Ye Feng would have thought it was just some insect making the noise.

  But that faintly discernible spiritual energy fluctuation indicates that it should be a cultivator.

  Someone! Could it be that I've been discovered?

  Ye Feng did not immediately enter the inner world, but instead looked towards the source of the sound.

  The inner world is good, it can make him disappear, but there is also a huge weakness, even fatal, that is, it cannot move. No matter where Ye Feng enters the inner world from, when he comes out, it will still be this location.

  Once people know about this weakness, or rather, as soon as someone is here, it doesn't take long for the figure to be exposed.

  A clump of slowly moving low shrubs caught Ye Feng's attention, thanks to the revolutionary educational films he had watched in his childhood in that world. In those films, people who were on reconnaissance or sneak attacks would always wear a small bunch of twigs on their hats, even if they were in the desert or Gobi Desert. At that time, Ye Feng couldn't understand why the enemy wouldn't notice such an obvious disguise. But when he grew up, Ye Feng realized that it was actually the director who was foolish - he thought the enemy couldn't see it, so the enemy must not be able to see it.

  As soon as the fully disguised reconnaissance company commander appeared, he immediately triggered Ye Feng's vigilance. After careful observation, it was discovered that this was absolutely not an enemy scout, but rather an ally of our army.

  Ye Feng remained silent, quietly waiting behind the giant rock.

  This location is the best vantage point from which one can clearly see both the entrance and those dwellings.

  Ye Feng couldn't help but wonder, this giant boulder was simply prepared for an ambush, why didn't the owner of this crystal mine eliminate this hidden danger, was he too confident, thinking that no one would dare to come and attack the crystal mine?

  Before long, the small tree moved beside the giant rock, and the newcomer saw that his body was well hidden, and he also seemed to have let out a sigh of relief.

  Sat down on the ground with a thud, and his expression relaxed a lot.

  When he saw Ye Feng, his mouth made a big "O" shape, but he didn't dare make any sound, his face was full of frightened expression, and his eyes were moving around wildly.

  Ye Feng shook his head, stretched out his hand and made a "shh" gesture, pointing to the nearby building, indicating that the newcomer should be quiet.

  The newcomer quickly calmed down, and both of them understood each other, they were birds of a feather.

  "Is your brother also here for the crystal within?" The newcomer transmitted his voice to Ye Feng through divine sense.

  Ye Feng nodded, but was very depressed. The divine sense transmission was a divine ability that only cultivators above the foundation building stage could master, and he had just barely reached this threshold.

  The newcomer saw Ye Feng silently and carefully examined him, discovering Ye Feng's cultivation, and suddenly relaxed.

  "Then don't make a sound, if you want to get the crystal, just follow me from behind and learn from what I do. If things go wrong, I will never forgive you." The newcomer warned Ye Feng through his divine sense, not allowing Ye Feng to ruin his good deed.

  For this crystal mine, he had paid countless heart and blood, planning to take action tonight. Who would have thought that a refining period cultivator suddenly appeared? Isn't this ruining his own good deed? He didn't bring Ye Feng with him on purpose, but was also afraid that Ye Feng would cause some disturbance, which would render all his previous efforts useless, and the preparations of many days would be destroyed in an instant.

  Taking down Ye Feng is even more unrealistic, Ye Feng's resistance will definitely trigger the guards' alarm, and here is too close to the guards, so that the incoming person has no choice but to act with Ye Feng together.
