Chapter 65: Hunting for Gold-type Demon Nucleus

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

There were rocks scattered everywhere, the result of excavation marks all over the mine. The small amount of soil was only two meters high and two meters wide, spacious enough to allow one person to pass through.

There was no longer any devil silver ore remaining inside. The cave was filled with a white-grey atmosphere, silent except for the occasional sound of bugs.

Yang Dingtian held his flame feather up as he moved forward. Although there wasn’t even a bit of light in the ore mine, the light of the flame feather was able to illuminate everything within a ten-meter radius.

Yang Dingtian held his breath and carefully walked towards the deeper parts of the mine. Although there weren’t many beasts here, the location was still more dangerous than the red, wild forest because it was inside a cave and not on broad, flat ground.

He walked over a hundred meters deep and did not encounter any beasts.

He walked a thousand meters deep and did not encounter any beasts.

He walked two thousand meters deep and still did not encounter any beasts.

“Why is it like this? How is it that there isn’t even a single beast?” Yang Dingtian was shocked and disappointed. “Ningning said, although there were very few beasts living in this abandoned ore mine, there were still, at the very least, a few dozen of them. Why haven’t I seen a single one?”

As a result, Yang Dingtian had no choice but to take out the Bloody Black Gold from a box to lure out a gold-eating beast. Bloody Black Gold had a strong attractive power towards gold-eating beasts. As long as there were gold-eating beasts within a few hundred meters, they would definitely be lured over.

However, Yang Dingtian was disappointed as no beasts appeared.

At the moment, Yang Dingtian had already traveled four thousand meters into the ore mine, which left one thousand meters before the end.

The entire ore mine was winding, and its passages were all interconnected. Yang Dingtian kept walking deeper and deeper, to the point where he had walked past every fork and gone down many curvy paths. The ore mine eventually fell silent. There had been the sounds of insects at first, but those sounds had all disappeared by now.

There were still five hundred meters left before he reached the deepest part of the ore mine, but there were still no signs of any beasts.

“How is this happening? What happened exactly? How did all the beasts disappear?” Yang Dingtian was shocked.

“Could it be that I will be going back empty-handed today?”

As he moved towards the deepest part of the ore mine, the surrounding temperature dropped lower and lower, and the hoarfrost on the ground got thicker and thicker. In the end, it turned completely into frost, which Yang Dingtian knew was caused by the unfreezing pond.

Ningning had said that there was an earthquake a few months ago and that there was unfreezing water deep in the ore mine that had condensed into a pond, causing the temperature around it to drop sharply.

Yang Dingtian continued to move forward. The ground wasn’t only frosted, but there was also a layer of thick ice. On top of that, he could already see a glimpse of light in front of him. Since unfreezing water emitted light, Yang Dingtian knew that he was not far from the deepest part of the mine.

At that moment, Yang Dingtian pinned all his hopes on this unfreezing pond, hoping that there would be an ice-type beast in the area. After all, today’s main goal was still to find an ice-type beast as gold-eating beasts could be found in many other places. The ice-type beast, however, could only be found in the northern continents over ten thousand miles away.

The deeper he went, the colder it became, and finally, the entire mine had become crystal clear, completely covered by ice.

Walking past a corner, he saw a hole in which snow-white light shone through.

Yang Dingtian knew that he would be reaching the deepest part of the mine in no time. The unfreezing pond just around the corner, and whether or not there were any ice-type beasts would be discovered the moment he arrived.

Holding his breath, Yang Dingtian slowly moved forward, walking towards the end of the ore mine.

Underneath was a huge cave formed by the earthquake. It was the size of a football field and was a few hundred meters deep.

Every part of the cave was covered with ice. It was as beautiful as a crystal palace, sporting sharp icicles everywhere. At the center of the cave lay a transparent pond filled with water that was about two hundred square meters in area. The water in the pond illuminated everything in roughly a two-hundred-meter radius with its white light. As such, the entire cave shone brightly.

This was the unfreezing pond.

There were also the beasts that Yang Dingtian cared about.

There were dozens of different kinds of gold-eating beasts around the pond. They were using their sharp claws to dig through the ice to find all kinds of metals to eat. Yang Dingtian finally discovered why there were no beasts in the entire rest of the mine. It was because all of them had gathered here in the only place in the area where metals could be found. The earthquake had caused some of the metal buried deep underground to be shaken out.

As for the ice-type beasts, there were also some swimming in the unfreezing pond.

It had truly seemed hopeless before he found this cave.

However, there were too many gold-type beasts before him. There were dozens of them here, one of which was a rank two beast. Although he had the flame feather, if dozens of beasts were to attack him simultaneously, he would find himself in extreme danger. In the worst case scenario, he would surely die.

But, it wasn’t like he had no options. Yang Dingtian took out his Bloody Black Gold and waved it high up before immediately placing it back into the jade box. It couldn’t be exposed for too long lest dozens of gold-eating beast came rushing over.

Sure enough, a few gold-eating beasts smelled that delicious scent and immediately looked up towards Yang Dingtian’s hiding spot. However, they found nothing so most of the beasts went back to shaving ice to find food. The beast standing closest to Yang Dingtian hesitated for a moment before running quickly towards Yang Dingtian.

Yang Dingtian immediately retreated a few hundred meters. He couldn’t kill the gold-eating beast here. Otherwise, he would attract the rest of the group.

After retreating to a corner a hundred meters away, Yang Dingtian found an advantageous position and waited for the arrival of the gold-eating beast.

Sure enough, a minute later, the gold-eating beast snuck in. Yang Dingtian hid the flame feather behind his back to cover its light. The entire mine was dark so he could only see the two red eyes of the gold-eating beast.

It was a gold-eating mouse about the size of a rabbit. Its attacking power was not strong, but it was extremely agile. Its teeth were very sharp and were effective when attacking a person’s crotch. Thus, for Yang Dingtian, it was an extremely dangerous beast so he definitely could not let it get close to him. Otherwise, it would be too dangerous.

Yang Dingtian held his breath and closed all of his body pores. Even so, he was still detected by the golden mouse. It stopped instantly, used its nose to smell, and determined Yang Dingtian’s location very quickly, fixing its pair of red, fiery eyes on him.

“Whoosh...” Suddenly, the golden mouse rushed out at lightning speed and was so fast that it completely exceeded Yang Dingtian’s expectations.

Even worse, it had closed its eyes when it rushed over. Since the entire cave was steeped in total darkness, he could no longer spot this golden mouse.

It was a really cunning beast. Yang Dingtian sensed that he was in extreme danger and took out his flame feather from behind him immediately. The dark cave was instantly illuminated.

At this moment, Yang Dingtian was shocked to find the golden mouse not even an inch away from him, its mouth already opened and baring its sharp teeth. It was less than 0.01 seconds away from biting his crotch. However, when the flame feather’s light blazed forth, the golden mouse was stunned momentarily before it continued its charge towards Yang Dingtian.

“Pig-Killing Swordsmanship, break into two pieces.”

Yang Dingtian waved the flame feather towards the golden mouse lightly. One wave!

“Whoosh!” Immediately, the airborne golden mouse was silently chopped in half. The creature did not even have time to utter a scream.

“Really a good treasure.” Yang Dingtian stared at this flame feather.

This golden mouse ate gold all year round. Not only its skin, but even its hair was harder than steel. It was harder to kill it than a fire-eyed wolf or a wind snake. If the Xuan energy was not strong enough, a strike would not be able to hurt it even with the best iron sword. However, this flame feather cut the iron body of the golden mouse as easily as cutting tofu.

Yang Dingtian squatted down and looked at the golden mouse’s corpse. The part that was cut was actually dark and cauterized. Not even a drop of blood had flown out. This flame feather really was too amazing.

He easily dug out the demon nucleus from the golden mouse’s brain. It was still hot and looked like a fiery red-gold walnut, covered with complicated lines. He placed the demon nucleus of the golden mouse into the box.

The third gold-type demon nucleus was obtained easily.

Next would be the fourth demon nucleus, an ice-type. Beneath the unfreezing water, there were at least three ice-type beasts. Around the pond, there were still dozens of gold-eating beasts. First of all, he needed to get rid of these dozens of gold-eating beasts. Otherwise, he not only wouldn’t get the ice-type demon nucleus but would also even lose his life.

Yang Dingtian came up with two plans. The first plan was to throw the Bloody Black Gold far away. Then, dozens of gold-eating beasts would definitely rush there and fight for it, killing each other in the process. In the end, the only beast that would survive should be the rank two gold-eating beast. After Yang Dingtian killed the rank two gold-eating beast, he would then head to the unfreezing pond to kill an ice-type beast.

The second plan was to put the Bloody Black Gold at the mine entrance about a kilometer away to lure all the gold-eating beasts over so that he could freely head over to the unfreezing pond to kill an ice-type demonic beast.

Both of these plans had shortcomings and uncertainties, but Yang Dingtian eventually chose the first plan.

However, Yang Dingtian did not know whether things would go as planned. Even if they did, Yang Dingtian would still have to kill the rank two golden beast by himself. The beast was a few times more powerful than a low-rank gold-eating beast.

Holding his breath, Yang Dingtian grabbed the Bloody Black Gold and threw it towards the golden beasts.

“Clank...” A dozen pounds of Bloody Black Gold landed ten meters away.

The gold-eating beasts that were shaving ice were stunned and sniffed desperately with their noses before rushing madly towards the Bloody Black Gold.

The Bloody Black Gold’s attraction to the gold-eating beasts really was fatal. The dozens of gold-eating beasts were madly agitated and desperately bit each other. In no time, the blood of the beasts splashed into the air, and screams sounded out non-stop.

This bunch of low-rank gold-eating beasts went completely insane after seeing the Bloody Black Gold and fought for it aggressively.
