Myriad Paths of the Dragon Emperor

Chapter 5919: Chapter 5919-Immortal King as a Miner

” However, the True Crystal Stone Mine is extremely eye-catching. Every new True Crystal Stone Mine that appears will attract the attention of the various major powers. Right now, there are a few Ping Family members who have their eyes on us. They might attack us at any time. Therefore, we have to trouble the Great Elder to personally guard it.”

Ju Xia continued.

”The Ping race dares to target the higher races?”

Lu Ming asked.

Ju Xia smiled bitterly and said,” Great Elder, although our Xia Clan is a higher race now, other than the two Creator Ancestors, we are severely lacking in the upper and middle levels of power. You are the only Fated Universe-Grade existence, and we donʼt have a single Inner Universe-Grade existence. However, the Creator Ancestors canʼt easily make a move. Therefore, many of the Ping Race donʼt even put our Xia Clan in their eyes.”

Lu Ming nodded. In the cultivation world, strength was everything. Everything else was just empty talk. In the situation where the creator ancestor could not make a move, the Xia Clan was just an empty shell. They had the name of a higher race, but they were not a real race.

One had to know that the Ping Race had at least a Great Luo Immortal Emperor.

Some of the Ping Race were extremely powerful overall, and they had more than one Universe-Grade Venerable Sovereign. They were unable to become a higher race because they had yet to produce a Creator Ancestor. However, the power of those below the Creator Realm wasnʼt any weaker than that of ordinary higher races.

Such a Ping race was not afraid of the higher races.

Moreover, in the First Heaven, many of the Ping Clan members came from other True Halls. It was normal for them to not be afraid of the Xia Clan.

They kept flying upwards, passing through the spatial barrier and entering the first layer of heaven.

Lu Ming immediately sensed that the First Heaven was filled with a rich Power of Truth. However, the Power of Truth here could not be absorbed and refined directly because there was a terrifying energy in the Power of Truth. It was chaotic, violent, and dark.

Ju Xia explained. This type of energy that couldnʼt be used was something that flowed into the Heaven Vault along with the energy of truth. In the real world, it was known as negative energy.

” Grand Elder, although the First Heaven has gradually stabilized, there are still terrifying gales that can threaten the lives of Universe-Grades. We canʼt let our guard down.”

Ju Xia reminded.

”I understand. Ju Xia, lead the way.”

Lu Ming nodded.

Ju Xia led the way towards the Xia Clanʼs true crystal mine.

Along the way, they saw a hurricane howling. It was extremely terrifying, as if it could destroy everything.

This hurricane was completely made of negative energy. It tore through the void and the earth, sweeping toward a giant city.

The giant city must have been built by a higher race. A defensive formation immediately appeared to block the hurricane.

Lu Ming and the rest bypassed the hurricane zone and left quickly.

Three days later, they finally arrived at the mineral vein.

There was a huge mountain range that was tens of millions of miles long, like a giant dragon lying on the ground.

From afar, many figures could be seen entering and exiting the mountain range, digging out many huge mines that were bottomless.

A giant city was built on top of the mineshaft.

After Lu Ming and the rest entered the giant city, Lu Ming immediately gathered the higher-ups of the mineral vein to understand the current mining level of the mineral vein, the daily output, as well as the upcoming dangers.

Soon, the higher-ups of the mine arrived.

”Heaven is born, yellow heaven is set…”

Lu Mingʼs eyes turned cold and killing intent rose in his heart. However, he controlled it very well and no one noticed it.

Soon, he found out that Cang Tian Xuan Sheng and Huang Tian Chi Ming had only arrived a few days ago.

Lu Ming understood that the Ancestor of Heaven and the Ancestor of Yellow Heaven were worried about him and sent them to monitor him.

In the eyes of the Ancestor of the Ether and the Ancestor of the Yellow Sky, the Ether Race and the Yellow Sky Race were the most trustworthy ones.

Lu Ming secretly sized up Cang Tian Xuan Sheng and Huang Tian Chi Ming. He realized that both of them had reached the first realm of the Grand Unity Immortal Emperor, the Dharma Universe Realm.

This was normal.

The two of them had become immortal emperors for at least tens of thousands of star years. Their talent was definitely top-notch. In the past, they suffered from the lack of true power and it was difficult for their cultivation to increase. However, their comprehension of cultivation was extremely deep. Now that they had obtained a large amount of resources, their cultivation naturally could advance by leaps and bounds.

”Should we get rid of them in the mine?”

Lu Ming pondered.

However, Lu Ming quickly dispelled this thought.

The timing wasnʼt right.

Huang Tian Chi Ming and Cang Tian Xuan Sheng both cultivated the Nine Deaths Celestial Scripture. If one wanted to kill them completely, one would need to kill them nine times.

The two of them had died in battle once in the past, so they had to be killed eight times.

Killing eight times was actually not difficult.

The Nine-Deaths Immortal Scripture was not without weaknesses.

After a person who cultivated the Nine-Deaths Immortal Scripture was killed, he could choose any place to resurrect and escape the killing tribulation.

However, it was impossible for a dead creature to be resurrected out of thin air. It must have had a life factor or a life mark that escaped and then resurrected in defiance of the heavens.

If the surrounding space and time were sealed before the person was killed, there would be no gaps, and no life force or mark could leave. The person who was killed could only be resurrected within a specific area and then killed.

With Lu Mingʼs abilities, he could kill them 800 times consecutively, let alone eight times.

However, this would arouse the suspicion of Heaven Primogenitor and Yellow Heaven Primogenitor.

This was because the people of the True Universe World did not know that Huang Tianchi Ming and Cang Tian Xuan Sheng had cultivated a heaven-defying immortal scripture like the Nine Deaths Immortal Scripture. Therefore, before killing them, it was impossible to seal everything in advance and kill them eight times in a row.

Only those from Universe Ocean knew about this. They could immediately deduce that it was Lu Ming.

”Iʼll let you live for a while longer. When I have the strength to resist the Creator Ancestor, it will be your death.”

Lu Ming thought to himself.

After a discussion, Lu Ming stood up and planned to patrol the mineral veins and mines.

He followed a mine pit and went thousands of miles deep. He could see that there were many mine holes under the mine pit. A large number of miners were mining immediately, making clanging sounds.

”Most of the miners are at the Immortal King realm. A few are at the True Immortal realm…”

Lu Ming sighed in his heart.

It was unimaginable for an immortal king to be a miner in Universe Ocean, but it was normal in True Universe World.

The True Crystal Mine was washed by the Power of Truth and became extremely hard. It was extremely difficult to mine it, and one had to be at least at the True Immortal realm.

However, True Immortals were very slow and difficult to mine, while Immortal Kings had it much easier.

It was no wonder why Ancestor Cang Tian and Ancestor Huang Tian would join the True Ancestral Talisman Palace and elevate the Xia Clan to a higher race.

They werenʼt doing this for the sake of the Xia Clan. They were doing this for the sake of the Xia Clan. After they were promoted to a higher race, they would be able to gather a large number of experts to work for them and extract resources for their cultivation.

The resources required to cultivate at the Creation realm were astronomical.

Lu Ming patrolled around and had a general idea of the mineral vein. He then returned to his residence.

In the blink of an eye, three months had passed.

”Heʼs here!”

Suddenly, Lu Mingʼs eyes shone coldly.

His immortal sense covered the entire mine. He found many black shadows sticking to the ground and rapidly heading toward the mine.

According to their auras, they should be from two different races.

The two Ping Clans had joined forces, intending to use a thunderous method to defeat the Xia Clan.
