Chapter 531: Chapter 530: The Demon-Immune Body
“If there are no surprises, we’ve completed our task of collecting ore.”
Feng Yiyang, who had not expected their luck to be this good, exclaimed excitedly.
“Look outside this cave, there are some shiny little pebbles. That’s because the fluorite, when it forms, can cause its outer shell to shatter, resulting in those small pebbles scattered outside.”
Listening to Feng Yiyang’s analysis, Lu Zixun glanced over,
and indeed, it was just as Feng Yiyang had said.
There were indeed small pebbles outside this exposed cave.
Under the sunlight, they emitted multicolored glows, almost resembling glass.
As for the fluorite…
Lu Zixun thought for a moment; the greatest use of this ore seemed to be in creating a light source that was difficult to extinguish.
However, if there was a large quantity, it could also be used to make Spiritual Tools, incorporating a certain amount of fluorite, which would allow them to carry some Light Element Spiritual Energy.
All in all, the cost-effectiveness of fluorite was still relatively high.
“It is indeed possible to complete the task of collecting ore.”
Lin Siyin nodded slightly, “However, the light emitted by the fluorite probably can’t harm the Shadow creatures, meaning there might be Shadows hidden in this mine.”
This was something Feng Yiyang had not considered, as he had been preoccupied with the completion of the ore collection task.
There were definitely risks, and after Lin Siyin’s reminder, Feng Yiyang observed the cave exposed to the outside more carefully.
Seeing the scale of the exposure, Feng Yiyang gasped lightly.
If the knowledge imparted by their tutors was correct, this cave likely went all the way to the underground and was quite deep.
This was not good news…
A hesitant look appeared in Feng Yiyang’s eyes. Although they could complete the ore collection task, the risk was too high.
No one knew how many Shadows could be hiding inside the mine.
After sharing his concerns with Lin Siyin, Feng Yiyang said, “I think the risk is too high; perhaps we should look elsewhere.”
Ruins are not like the Trial Tower; they don’t have any human protection mechanisms. To die within the ruins meant actual death.
After weighing the options for a moment, Lin Siyin subconsciously glanced at Lu Zixun.
Seeing Lu Zixun’s untraceable nod, Lin Siyin immediately felt relieved, “Let’s go in and take a look first, if there is any danger we’ll pull out immediately, as it’s still broad daylight outside.”
Feng Yiyang shrugged, he just felt that the risk was a bit high.
However, as long as they didn’t venture too deep underground, with the strength of their team, there shouldn’t be too much of a problem.
With Lin Siyin’s decision, the team, except for Wang Qing, all agreed to proceed.
“Shouldn’t we reconsider?”
Wang Qing’s voice was somewhat urgent, “Look, the mine is pitch-black and we can’t see anything inside. If we’re surrounded by Shadows, won’t we be doomed?”
Unaware that Li Dazhu was internally freaking out, he scratched his head in a rather honest manner and said, “There’s nothing to worry about, Wang Qing. No matter how many Shadows there are, I will protect you all!”
“You can totally trust me!”
Afraid that Wang Qing wouldn’t believe him, Li Dazhu even patted his shield on his back, making a “thud-thud” solid sound.
Wang Qing looked at Li Dazhu, wanting to cry but without tears; it wasn’t a matter of protection, it was these Shadows…
Wang Qing, who tried to refuse entering the mine, was directly brought in by the other six members of the team.
Feeling utterly despondent, Wang Qing shrank behind Li Dazhu, sticking close to Shen Yue, letting the darkness engulf her.
“Spiritual Ability Lamp.”
As soon as Lin Siyin spoke, Zhang Tianyue, the auxiliary personnel, took out a Spiritual Ability Lamp.
After the Light Element Spiritual Ability was infused into this Spiritual Tool, a soft light scattered the darkness.
Around Zhang Tianyue as the center, a radiance of about thirty-five meters spread out.
Wang Qing, who could see inside the mining tunnel, felt her nervous tension ease significantly.
Lu Zixun, who had been silent for a while, silently activated his Spiritual Energy detection.
After sensing that the tunnel was quite deep and that there were at least thousands of Void Spirits hiding within, Lu Zixun slowly spoke, “Let’s collect enough fluorite and leave; this place is not safe.”
Upon hearing Lu Zixun speak, Zhang Tianyue immediately perked up with utmost vigilance.
“Proceed in the formation we practiced before, a 133 formation.”
The so-called 133 formation meant that Li Dazhu stood at the very front, with Lu Zixun and Lin Siyin protecting Zhang Tianyue in the middle, and the rest of the team at the back.
After the squad steadily advanced for about a hundred meters, they finally saw fluorite that flickered from time to time.
At the same time, they spotted a Void Spirit near the faint glow.
“Roar!”
Only a roar was heard from Li Dazhu as he raised his shield in front of him while a knight’s sword appeared in his right hand.
The Void Spirit, as if startled awake, emitted a piercing scream.
Blood streamed from its eye sockets, and in the blink of an eye, its fingernails grew, becoming like ten dagger blades.
“Prepare.”
Facing the oncoming Void Spirit, Lin Siyin was not the least bit flustered.
It was only after the Void Spirit entered the range of the Spiritual Ability Lamp that Lin Siyin calmly said, “Release.”
Superpower Techniques flew out from behind Li Dazhu, enveloping the Void Spirit overhead.
The Void Spirit, oblivious to these lethal Superpower Techniques, only increased its speed by a fraction.
The Superpower Techniques passed directly through the body of the Void Spirit and fell to the ground.
This scene caused Lu Zixun to squint his eyes, surprised that the Void Spirit could be immune to Superpower Techniques…
No, it’s not so much immunity as it is neutralization.
That is to say, Superpower Techniques could not inflict effective damage on the Void Spirit, which was quite interesting.
Just as the Void Spirit was about to pounce in front of Li Dazhu, a Spiritual Barrier unfolded in an instant, bouncing the Void Spirit away.
“The ability to neutralize Superpower Technique attacks means Magic attacks are ineffective; we can try physical attacks.”
Hearing Lu Zixun’s analysis and placing great trust in him, Li Dazhu charged towards the fallen Void Spirit.
He raised the knight’s sword in his hand and thrust it forcefully into the heart of the Void Spirit.
“Squawk!”
Just as Lu Zixun had guessed, Magic attacks were ineffective.
However, the physical attack brought the Void Spirit immense pain.
Watching the Void Spirit struggle less and less, Lu Zixun looked at the talisman Lin Siyin had already drawn on the ground and fell into contemplation.
If Superpower Techniques were ineffective against the Void Spirit, then why was Lin Siyin’s Array effective? This was truly strange.
“Superpower Techniques are ineffective?!”
Using Superpower Techniques on the dead Void Spirit, Wang Qing found that, just as before, the Techniques passed through the body of the Void Spirit.
Wang Qing felt less afraid of the Void Spirits.
After all, compared to the ghosts in horror movies, these creatures were somewhat less intimidating.
“Hello~”
Just as Wang Qing thought this, a subtle voice came from behind her.
Startled, Wang Qing screamed and threw a fierce punch behind her.
