The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3180 - 3175: Ore Eruption_1
Previously on The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms...
"Just as Brother Yang Chen suggested, we should depart immediately to avoid being targeted by the Meng E Clan," Man Yunfei urged.
None of the assembled experts dared to disagree, and the group quickly retreated from the area.
The addition of Yang Chen to their ranks, however, became the primary focus of the team's hushed conversations.
Aware that Yang Chen wished to keep his identity a secret, Man Yunfei was forced to sternly reprimand his subordinates, silencing their gossip to ensure no clues were left behind.
Yang Chen remained hidden among the group, expertly masking his presence from any prying eyes.
He possessed immense confidence in his stealth techniques. While traveling under cover, he took the opportunity to investigate the Seven-colored Colored Glaze Mine they had acquired along the way.
He found himself deeply curious about the nature of this Seven-colored Colored Glaze Mine, wondering how it possessed the power to breathe life into a world and facilitate the evolution of a World Embryo into a complete realm.
Despite his scrutiny, he was unable to unlock its mysteries or yield any concrete results.
His current cultivation realm was simply too low. Had he reached the Heavenly Fate Realm, this treasure would likely have proven far more useful and comprehensible to him.
Under Man Yunfei’s lead, the team moved at a rapid pace. They encountered no hostile alien clans during their trek, as every group they crossed had their sights set on the same prize: Mo Xin Lake and the Seven-colored Colored Glaze Mine. For the moment, major conflicts were avoided.
Eventually, the group arrived at the shores of Mo Xin Lake.
"According to our maps, this is Mo Xin Lake," Man Yunfei informed Yang Chen via Sound Transmission.
Yang Chen surveyed the surroundings.
Though referred to as a lake, Mo Xin Lake was so vast that its far shores were lost to the horizon.
By projecting their souls to probe the distance, the cultivators could detect a massive island situated in the lake's center. This island was alive with fluctuating Qi and strange movements, which immediately signaled an anomaly to Yang Chen and Man Yunfei’s group.
Furthermore, numerous foreign races were already skimming across the water's surface, all converging on the island. Not wishing to fall behind, Man Yunfei hurried his team forward.
The tension in the air grew palpable as they approached the island, a fact lost on no one.
From their high vantage point, they could see a massive gathering of different races. The Ta Niu Clan and Meng E Clan were present, alongside various other alien races, both prominent and obscure.
Even the Spirit God Race had sent representatives.
"Elder Han Bo and Elder Lin Tianyi are both present..." Yang Chen whispered to himself.
It was only natural that these Sky Separation Realm experts, who had led the charge to Mo Xin Lake, would arrive before him.
In the distance, Master Fang of Heavenly Melody Mountain signaled to Man Yunfei.
Man Yunfei immediately steered the group toward Master Fang’s position.
"Man Yunfei, why have you only arrived now? Did you run into trouble on the road?" Master Fang asked, his voice tinged with surprise.
"There were a few minor incidents, but nothing we couldn't handle. What is the status here? Why are so many foreign races congregating? Shouldn't they be busy mining the Seven-colored Colored Glaze Mine?" Man Yunfei inquired, puzzled.
Yang Chen shared this curiosity, wondering what could have caused such a stalemate.
Scanning the crowd, he recognized several familiar faces, including Mo Wanchou from the Grand Abyss Palace.
Xuan Jie, the Second Prince of the Spirit God Clan, was also visible among the throng.
"It is a relief you are safe. This opening of the Sky Cave is unlike previous ones. Its timing did not match the usual birth of the Seven-colored Colored Glaze Mine. Instead, we have arrived just as the mine is about to erupt from the lakebed," Master Fang explained.
"An eruption? What does that mean? I have never heard of such a thing," Man Yunfei said, looking stunned.
"It isn't surprising that you're unaware. Though the Sky Cave has opened many times over the eons, an eruption from the depths of Bi Shuangxing has only occurred once before. Simply put, the abundance of Seven-colored Colored Glaze Mine in Mo Xin Lake is due to the unique environment below the surface, which generates vast quantities of the ore."
Master Fang continued: "When the mine reaches its peak, it will burst forth like a volcano, shooting directly into the air. Immediately afterward, Mo Xin Lake will freeze solid for countless years, only thawing when the next cycle of the mine is ready."
"So, Master Fang, you are saying the Seven-colored Colored Glaze Mine is on the verge of erupting?" Man Yunfei asked.
"Precisely. Shortly, the mine will erupt at various points across the lake. While the major powers are currently maintaining a truce, it is merely the calm before the storm. Once the Seven-colored Colored Glaze Mine appears, the ensuing battle among the experts will be nothing short of a bloodbath," Master Fang warned solemnly.
Hearing this, the gravity of the situation became clear to Yang Chen.
So that was the case.
Mo Xin Lake was destined to become a chaotic killing field very soon.
With so many Sky Separation Realm and Boundaryless cultivators involved, he knew he could not afford to be careless.
"But why don't these powerful figures simply enter Mo Xin Lake and wait?" Man Yunfei asked, still confused.
"If it were possible, they would have done so already. The environment of Mo Xin Lake holds the secrets to Bi Shuangxing's uniqueness, but entering the waters is a death sentence for Sky Separation Realm experts like us, let alone Boundaryless cultivators like yourselves," Master Fang clarified.
"Entering the lake leads to death?" Man Yunfei pondered the thought.
"Indeed. You must ensure that not a single drop of lake water touches you during the coming fight, or the end will be grisly. I watched a foreign Boundaryless cultivator merely graze the water earlier; his death was horrific beyond words. Now, everyone is keeping their distance, avoiding even flying too low, and waiting patiently on the island," Master Fang sighed.
"How terrifying..." Man Yunfei’s expression turned fearful.
"I suspect only a Heavenly Fate Realm expert could enter the lake to uncover the truth. However, those masters have already transcended the shackles of the Heavenly Dao. It is unlikely they would bother with the secrets of a mere Star Domain Interface," Master Fang said with a note of helplessness, knowing those old monsters only cared for their own interests.
Man Yunfei asked with a serious tone, "What are your orders for when the Seven-colored Colored Glaze Mine emerges?"
Master Fang replied heavily, "Once the eruption begins, we elders will fight for the mines closest to us. You Boundaryless cultivators should focus on the Seven-colored Colored Glaze Mine that lands further out on the lake's surface. When that happens, be as fast as possible and seize as many as you can."
"Understood," Man Yunfei replied firmly.
