Deep in the Death Canyon
The canyon was pitch-black and eerily silent.
The sound of footsteps colliding with the ground was eerie and horrifying in the empty canyon.
Mei Xu stuck close to Zhuowen as her beautiful eyes scanned the surroundings nervously.
Zhuowen did not walk fast. His muscles were tense as he was constantly alert of his surroundings.
He was very surprised. He had left Jiang Ye and the others for more than two hours and was slowly approaching the deepest part of the canyon.
However, he did not encounter any danger along the way. His surroundings were eerily quiet.
"Big Brother Zhuo, what do you need so many jade stones for?
If we can find the jade stone vein this time, we will need a lot of manpower and resources to mine it!
You alone might not be enough. "
Perhaps Mei Xu felt that the surroundings were too quiet, so she opened her mouth to break the silence.
"I do need a lot of jade stones now. As for what they are used for, this is a secret!
As for mining, I have my own considerations! "
Zhuowen smiled. His purpose in entering the Death Canyon was to quickly accumulate jade stones by hunting beasts. After accumulating ten thousand jade stones, he would ask the Drifting Cloud Tribe to recommend him to enter the Hongxuan Divine City.
However, after meeting Mei Xu and Jiang Ye, entering the God City became easier than eating a meal for him.
He did not need to deliberately collect jade stones. The reason he wanted to find the jade stones hidden in the depths of the canyon was mainly for the mysterious stone.
Since absorbing the jade stones of the Tian Yi Tribe, the mysterious stone seemed to have been enlightened.
He guessed that the mysterious stone had been in a deep slumber before, but the jade stones could awaken it.
Of course, although the mysterious stone could move now, he could feel that it had not fully awakened.
Moreover, the mysterious stone's desire for jade stones was getting stronger.
Most of the jade stones collected by Xiong Fei and the others were kept in Zhuowen's macro world.
Originally, he wanted to use these jade stones to enter the Divine City. Since Jiang Ye had promised to let him enter the Divine City, he did not need to keep them. Therefore, he gave all the jade stones in the macro world to the mysterious stone.
The mysterious stone cheered and absorbed all the jade stones in the macro world.
After absorbing all the jade, the mysterious stone was still not satisfied. It wanted to absorb even more jade.
This shocked Zhuowen. He had thousands of jade stones in his Great World, and they had all been absorbed by the mysterious stone. However, the mysterious stone was not satisfied.
Zhuowen knew that if he wanted to satisfy this mysterious stone, he would need a large amount of jade stones.
Mei Xu had mentioned that there was a jade ore vein in the depths of the canyon, which was perfect for the mysterious stone to absorb.
Zhuo Wen had a premonition that if he could let the mysterious stone absorb enough energy, it would be able to reveal the true face of the stone.
When Mei Xu saw that Zhuowen didn't want to talk about it, she could only give an 'oh' and didn't want to talk about it any further.
She had entered the Death Canyon for the Jade Stone Vein, and she had no doubts about Zhuowen's strength. That was why she was willing to point out the exact location of the Jade Stone Vein for Zhuowen and go deep into the Death Canyon.
The two of them traveled through the canyon for a period of time. Finally, they felt that something was wrong.
Along the way, the canyon was too quiet. They didn't even see a trace of a Killer Beast.
All of this was very strange.
"We have reached the deepest part of the canyon!"
Zhuowen stopped and looked at the towering rock wall in front of him.
This was the end of the canyon. Apart from this rock wall, there was nothing else around them. Not even a trace of a Killer Beast could be seen.
"Miss Mei Xu, can you sense the location of the Jade Stone Vein now?"
A trace of haze flashed in Zhuowen's eyes. He felt that something was wrong. As for what was wrong, he couldn't tell. He could only ask Mei Xu about the location of the Jade Stone Vein.
Mei Xu's three furry tails swayed gently. Her pair of beautiful eyes looked around as she observed the surrounding environment.
Soon, her eyes locked on to the front left. There stood an irregular stone pillar that was half the height of a person.
"Brother Zhuo, the Jade Stone Vein should be under this stone pillar!"
Mei Xu came to the front of the stone pillar. A trace of excitement flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"Be careful!"
Zhuo Wen shouted and took a step forward. He grabbed Mei Xu's jade-like hand and forcefully pulled her over.
Mei Xu screamed and jumped into Zhuowen's arms. Her eyes fell on the stone pillar. She found that the stone pillar had turned into a giant python covered in rocks.
To be more precise, the stone pillar was the giant python in disguise.
The giant python's body was as thick as a bucket. Its huge head opened its scarlet eyes and stared at Zhuowen. Its mouth was wide open as if it was angry at Zhuowen for being a busybody.
Zhuowen's eyes were solemn. The giant python's aura was very strong. It had the strength of an early-stage Creator.
Zhuowen naturally didn't care about such strength. What he was concerned about was that there might be more than one Rock Python in the deepest part of the Death Canyon.
Whoosh!
The giant python hissed and shot out like a spring. It swept toward Zhuowen. A fishy wind swept over.
"You're courting death!"
Zhuo Wen grunted coldly as his right hand emitted a crystalline and translucent glow, and he suddenly stretched out his hand to grab the enormous python that flashed over.
The power of the Pangu Sacred Body poured out. The giant python screamed and its head was crushed by Zhuowen's palm.
"Big Brother Zhuo!
Look, there's a cave where the giant python was just now, "Mei Xu suddenly said.
Only then did Zhuo Wen notice that the place Mei Xu had pointed out was indeed a cave that led to the depths of the underground.
The size of the cave was just enough to accommodate a person. The giant python coiled its body and covered the cave, so they didn't notice it for a while.
"Go in!"
The moment the cave appeared, Zhuowen immediately carried Mei Xu, who didn't know what was going on, and rushed into the cave.
The moment Zhuowen entered the cave, he immediately took out the array disc he had prepared from the great world and placed it at the entrance of the cave.
The array disc was set up by Zhuowen before he entered the Death Canyon. It was a peak Creator-level defensive array. He had spent a lot of effort to set it up. Bang!
Bang! Bang!
The moment Zhuowen placed the array disc at the entrance of the cave, a series of crashing sounds came from the entrance.
It was as if there were countless creatures installed on the array disc.
If Zhuowen and Mei Xu saw the scene outside the cave, they would definitely feel their scalps go numb.
The rocks on both sides of the cave, which was ten kilometers away, were squirming. Then, giant pythons with scarlet eyes appeared one after another.
These giant pythons were exactly the same as the giant pythons Zhuowen had just killed.
Zhuowen didn't expect that the walls on both sides of the canyon were actually the giant pythons in disguise.
Roar!
