Liang Yuan’s heart silently marveled at the strength of Life Force.
His subordinates, however, showed no hesitation, prying open large stones below and conducting in-depth excavation of several roots.
As the stone pit grew larger, they finally saw the rootlets of the persimmon tree.
These rootlets were thick, passing through the cracks in the rocks, absorbing the meager Earth Power.
Bang!
Suddenly, Liang Yuan struck down with his pickaxe, resulting in a muffled thud.
A large stone cracked open, and then a pure white crystal stone was exposed from within.
Liang Yuan was momentarily stunned, but then his eyes widened in surprise!
He quickly grabbed the crystal stone, feeling it carefully, and his face instantly showed a look of joy.
"Superpower Stone!"
"And it’s a Spirit Attribute Superpower Stone!"
Liang Yuan’s face was full of joy, as this was his first time seeing a Spirit Attribute Superpower Stone!
At the Yangshan Mine, most of the stones excavated were Fire Attribute and a few Earth Attribute Superpower Stones!
But Liang Yuan had never seen a Spirit Attribute Superpower Stone!
He really didn’t expect to find a Spirit Attribute Superpower Stone in this cave!
"Wait, if there’s a Spirit Attribute Superpower Stone here, there can’t be just one. There might be a Superpower Stone Mine here!"
Liang Yuan suddenly realized and then thought of the Spirit Force Field in this graveyard!
"Could it be that this large Spirit Force Field is generated because there’s a Spirit Attribute Superpower Stone Mine here?"
"And that Mutated Weasel! Under normal circumstances, how could an ordinary mutant beast evolve to such a terrifying level of nearly 50 Points of Spiritual Power so quickly?"
"It must have been living in this graveyard for years, unknowingly absorbing the energy of these Spirit Attribute Superpower Stones, thereby possessing such strong Spiritual Attribute, and even developing Telekinesis!"
In a flash of inspiration, Liang Yuan understood everything.
He became excited immediately and began digging vigorously.
Bang, bang, bang...
Rocks continued to be cracked open, revealing large patches of Spirit Attribute Superpower Stones.
Liang Yuan smiled broadly and quickly put these Superpower Stones into his inventory.
Soon, a huge pit was excavated inside the cave.
With Liang Yuan’s efforts, the entire persimmon tree was also uprooted.
Liang Yuan put the entire tree into his inventory, then looked at the bottom of the tree pit.
There they found dozens of extraordinarily bright and large Spirit Attribute Superpower Stones exposed.
He burst into laughter: "I’m rich, hahaha, I’ve struck it rich! I wonder how big this Superpower Stone Mine is and how many Superpower Stones it has."
He quickly dug out all the exposed Superpower Stones.
"It’ll be hard for me to finish digging this alone, and it will take some time."
Liang Yuan rested for a moment and quickly realized this excavation could not be completed in a short time.
Of course, Liang Yuan estimated that this mine probably wasn’t very large.
Because the Spirit Force Field only covered this graveyard area.
At most, there might be some impure Spirit Attribute Superpower Stones surrounding it.
"It looks like in the next few days, I must bring people over as soon as possible."
"The immediate priority is to build a bridge between the two mountains."
Thinking of this, Liang Yuan put down his pickaxe and immediately turned to leave the cave.
Clear about the cause of the Spirit Force Field, he felt relieved.
Since it wasn’t the work of mutant monsters, it was easier to handle.
This Spirit Force Field could block outsiders and make it convenient for him to mine.
He quickly left the cave, then regrouped with Yang Mei, Li Xiangyang, and others waiting outside.
Li Xiangyang saw Liang Yuan and quickly approached, asking, "Mr. Liang, what’s the situation inside? Did you find out?"
Liang Yuan shook his head slightly: "I haven’t figured it out yet. For now, don’t go in again. Tell your men."
Li Xiangyang nodded quickly, having retrieved the Mutated Persimmon anyway.
Looking at their group, Liang Yuan suddenly had another doubt.
Why could these people enter and leave safely the previous times?
But this time, why did they all perish?
He immediately thought of the Mutated Weasel.
Could it be that the Mutated Weasel wasn’t around the previous times they entered?
This time, they coincidentally encountered the Mutated Weasel and met their demise?
"Could the Mutated Weasel have used the Spirit Force Field to alter the environment?"
"No, the Mutated Weasel is dead now, but the Spirit Force Field still covers the graveyard, forming an Illusion Realm like a ghost wall."
He pondered deeply, making a hypothesis.
Either the Mutated Weasel had done something in this Superpower Stone Mine, causing irreversible effects, forming this ghost wall area.
Or perhaps there were other mutant creatures at the bottom of this cave causing trouble!
Liang Yuan’s eyes sparkled; either situation was good news for him.
Because this ghost wall acted as a natural barrier, covering the Spirit Attribute Stone Mine and preventing others from mining.
Only under his guidance could people enter the cave to mine.
"Once back, I’ll have Zhao Kai bring a team to mine."
Liang Yuan thought to himself and then led everyone back to the academy.
Initially, there were only three of them, but now as they returned, they had a group of twenty or thirty people.
