"My lord, the mineral vein discovered by the Battle Axe Alliance is located here."
Zofey looked at the continuous mountain range before him. This range was vast, and long before the Battle Axe Alliance found it, it had been a dragon vein.
Gazing at the location, Zofey sighed, "My lord, you may not know, but thousands of years ago, this place was once called a sacred land. The reason for this was that legend has it, this is where the first Star Lord of Planet Kuila fell."
"Legend has it that about hundreds of thousands of years ago, the first person on our Planet Kuila to reach the Dao Master realm left Planet Kuila. It is said that he became an ultimate powerhouse outside. At that time, Planet Kuila was much larger than it is now, and that senior's name was Kuila, which is also the origin of Planet Kuila."
"As for whether it is true or not, there is no way to verify..."
Zofey recounted the legends surrounding the Kuila mountain range. Ye Xuan looked at the mountains before him, a flicker of interest reigniting in his eyes.
"You Nai, scan this mountain range."
With this thought, Ye Xuan called out You Nai, holding a glimmer of hope. Soon, You Nai responded.
"Master, there is the aura of a powerful individual left behind here. Moreover, this mountain range is protected by numerous restrictions. The further inside one goes, the higher the quality of the Emperor Crystals will be, provided one can break through the restrictions. This..."
"This is likely the resource left by that powerful individual for Planet Kuila to rise."
You Nai said this. Hearing this, coupled with the legend of Planet Kuila, Ye Xuan wondered... could the powerful individual You Nai mentioned be the one left by the first Star Lord of Planet Kuila? If he truly became an ultimate powerhouse, then this mountain range...
With this thought, Ye Xuan became even more interested in the mountain range before him. A contingency plan laid out hundreds of thousands of years ago. How interesting.
"Star Lord!!"
Just then, a panicked voice came from Zofey's subordinate, who was at the peak of the Emperor realm. "There seems to be a problem with the mining in the mountain range."
"We've encountered an insurmountable obstacle, one that even the full might of three Dao Masters cannot break."
Swallowing hard, though he didn't know what lay deep within the mountain range, such a powerful obstruction clearly meant that whatever was inside was incredibly precious.
"Oh!?"
Hearing his subordinate's words, Zofey was taken aback. Ye Xuan already had an answer. "Let's go take a look."
From You Nai's words, the insurmountable obstacle was likely the restriction that Kuila had placed for the descendants of Planet Kuila.
More than ten minutes later, they reached the end of the mining in the mountain range.
"My lord, Star Lord!!"
Zofey's three subordinates, all Dao Masters, bowed. The others around them also looked at Ye Xuan with surprise, clearly recognizing him as the one who had saved their Star Lord and their planet this time.
"Zofey, Ling'er, the rest can leave."
Ye Xuan looked at the restriction before him and spoke.
The three Dao Masters looked at Zofey, then responded without daring to delay, "Yes, my lord!"
Immediately, they led the mining crew away from the scene.
"Master, is this mountain range not simple?"
Mu Ling'er, seeing everyone leave, looked at the scene ahead with curiosity and suspicion.
"My lord, let me try."
Zofey pondered for a moment, clenched his right fist, and unleashed the aura of a first-tier Great Emperor. Then, a powerful and domineering attack struck forward, energy surging. However...
"How is this possible!"
Zofey's face was filled with disbelief, clearly unable to accept what he was seeing. The stone wall before him remained completely unharmed.
"This..."
"Brother Zofey's attack as a first-tier Great Emperor couldn't even damage it."
Looking at the stone wall that showed no fluctuation, Mu Ling'er swallowed and then her gaze fell upon Ye Xuan. "Master, it seems only you can make a move."
"Very well."
Ye Xuan smiled faintly, then walked to the stone wall. Lightning flashed, and he struck out with a palm.
With a thunderous roar~
Under this attack, the incredibly sturdy stone wall immediately showed spiderweb-like cracks that spread outwards. Then, the restriction on the stone wall was broken by Ye Xuan's brute force.
Fifth-tier Great Emperor combat power?
That's right. With Ye Xuan's current strength, he could barely break through the restriction. Although he wasn't yet a fifth-tier Great Emperor, his combat power was already comparable to that of a fifth-tier Great Emperor.
"As You Nai said, there should be more than one layer of restrictions here. The first layer alone requires fifth-tier Great Emperor level attack power. Then the second and third layers would require even stronger attacks."
The stone wall shattered, and looking inside, one could clearly feel a dense aura of Emperor Crystals washing over them. As far as the eye could see, there were no less than eight hundred to a thousand Emperor Crystals embedded in the stone wall.
"Er..."
"This is!?"
Zofey stared at the scene in astonishment. The shimmering Emperor Crystals were like a dream.
"Low-grade Emperor Crystals!"
"So many low-grade Emperor Crystals, my heavens~~"
Zofey was completely stunned, while Mu Ling'er's eyes widened. "Master, this... how is this possible??"
"As expected, the legend of Planet Kuila should be true."
"This should be the resource left by the first Star Lord of Planet Kuila, Kuila, for Planet Kuila's rise."
What!?
Hearing his master's words, Mu Ling'er's pupils dilated. "A resource left for rise hundreds of thousands of years ago, this!?"
"How powerful must that Star Lord Kuila have been!!"
"This..."
Zofey was also shocked by the scene before him, looking at the low-grade Emperor Crystals within his line of sight with emotion. "I don't know how powerful he was, but Star Lord Kuila should have some connection with the Milky Way Empire, and their relationship was quite deep. However, he must have offended someone later, and eventually returned to Planet Kuila to perish. But it's just a legend, with no proof."
"Presumptuous!!!"
Just then, a furious roar echoed from afar. In the next moment, over a thousand powerful individuals surrounded the entrance of the mountain range, making it impenetrable. Among them were no less than a hundred Great Emperor level experts. The formation was indeed formidable.
This group was none other than the Battle Axe Alliance, who couldn't contact Lie Yan.
The leader was the Alliance Master of the Battle Axe Alliance, Zhan Fu.
"Zofey, you scoundrel, daring to touch my people, come out and die!!"
Alliance Master Zhan Fu roared in anger. He raised his hand and unleashed a palm strike towards the three Dao Master level experts. If this strike landed, the three would surely perish, as they were no match for the peak of a third-tier Great Emperor.
*Boom~!!*
A dull sound echoed. The expected scene of the three Dao Master level experts perishing did not occur. Instead, a figure appeared before them, which was Ye Xuan, who had made the move.
"The Battle Axe Alliance is truly as infamous as the rumors say."
"Boy, you bought Zofey, how dare you bring Zofey back to Planet Kuila! You've got some skills."
"But... die then~!"
A sinister glint flashed in Alliance Master Zhan Fu's eyes. The matter of this Emperor Crystal mine could not be leaked, so everyone here had to die. With that, Zhan Fu unleashed his strongest strike towards Ye Xuan, intending to kill him with a single palm.
*Snap~*
A crisp sound echoed. In the next moment, Zhan Fu was sent flying by Ye Xuan's palm. His facial bones were shattered, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He was sent flying over a dozen feet, severely injured on the spot. The subordinates of the Battle Axe Alliance were all stunned, swallowing hard. Damn, how could that kid be so powerful!?
