228: Chapter 228 Mining

"The rules of our Red Sun Mine are very simple!"

"As long as you mine honestly and hand over a full one million Immortal Stones every year, you are free to do whatever else you want!"

"If you are lucky and find a rich mine cave with abundant reserves, and the mined Immortal Stones exceed one million, you can hand them over in advance. This will exempt you from subsequent mining tasks, and you can move around freely for the remaining time."

"Of course, if you hand over more Immortal Stones, you can exchange them for Miner Points to spend within the mine!"

"Your Miner Points can be used to purchase Cultivation Techniques for the Heavenly Immortal Realm, Golden Immortal Realm, Profound Immortal Realm, and even the Immortal Lord Realm. You can also buy various delicacies of the Immortal Realm, and even enjoy the services of fairies from the Immortal Realm!"

"Of course, if the Immortal Stones you hand over are less than one million, you will be severely punished. If you fail to hand over one million Immortal Stones for three consecutive years, you will be executed immediately!"

"I have already explained the rules of our Red Sun Mine clearly to you!"

"Now, each of you take a set of mining tools and enter the mine cave to mine!"

"By the way, remember the mining schedule. You must come out once a year to hand over the mined Immortal Stones!"

The guard of the Red Sun Mine said calmly to Yang Juncheng and the other ascenders.

After speaking, the guard of the Red Sun Mine turned and entered a room, took out some mining tools from it, and distributed them to Yang Juncheng and the other ascenders.

Once everyone had received their mining tools, the guard of the Red Sun Mine led Yang Juncheng and the other ascenders toward the mine cave.

"This is the mine cave of the Red Sun Mine. There are many small mine caves inside. Go in yourselves!"

Upon arriving at the entrance of a huge mine cave, the guard of the Red Sun Mine said calmly to Yang Juncheng and the other ascenders.

Hearing the words of the Red Sun Mine guard, Yang Juncheng did not hesitate at all and immediately strode into the mine cave.

The other ascenders also set off one after another, entering the mine cave.

The mine cave was huge with many branches. After walking for only fifteen minutes, Yang Juncheng discovered thousands of branch caves.

However, there were other miners in these branch caves. Yang Juncheng did not enter them, but instead continued forward along the huge main mine cave.

Not long after, Yang Juncheng reached the end of the main mine cave. He glanced at the hundred or so branch caves nearby, randomly chose one, and walked in.

Afterward, Yang Juncheng was surprised to find that there were also many branches within the branch cave, so he randomly chose another branch and walked in.

After choosing more than ten branches in a row, Yang Juncheng entered an empty small mine cave. He took out the mining shovel from his mining tools and chopped at the rock wall at the end of the cave.

Bang!

With a crisp clattering sound, the mining shovel chopped heavily onto the rock wall, easily knocking off a large piece of rock.

"The rocks in the Immortal Realm are way too hard!"

"Even though I haven't activated my Amplification Talent, with my cultivation and strength at the Heavenly Immortal Realm, it shouldn't be that I can only knock off a single large piece of rock!"

"No wonder there's no one in this mine cave!"

"The rocks here are so hard, it must be extremely difficult to mine Immortal Stones from them!"

Looking at the large piece of rock that had fallen, a look of surprise flashed in Yang Juncheng's eyes, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

After sighing, Yang Juncheng activated his 100,000x Amplification Talent, swung the mining shovel in his hand, and chopped toward the hard rock wall.

Boom!

Amidst a violent rumbling sound, the mining shovel struck the hard rock wall. A terrifying power erupted from it, directly blasting a huge pit dozens of meters deep into the rock wall, with countless rock fragments shooting out from it.

"Are these Immortal Stones? Do they contain pure Immortal Qi?"

Looking at the white jade crystals mixed among the rock fragments, Yang Juncheng murmured softly.

After murmuring, Yang Juncheng picked up an Immortal Stone, circulated his Cultivation Technique, and began to absorb the Immortal Qi from it.

Soon, the Immortal Qi in the Immortal Stone in Yang Juncheng's hand was completely drained, turning into a pile of ashes that scattered onto the ground.

"The Immortal Qi contained in the Immortal Stone is extremely pure and vast. The Immortal Qi in a single Immortal Stone is worth the harvest of an hour of my hard Cultivation!"

"If I have enough Immortal Stones to assist in my Cultivation, my Cultivation speed will increase many times over!"

Feeling the changes in his body, Yang Juncheng's eyes lit up, and he murmured softly.

After murmuring, Yang Juncheng quickly picked up the Immortal Stones from the rock fragments and put them into the Storage Pouch provided by the Red Sun Mine.

Immediately after, Yang Juncheng activated his Amplification Talent to ten billion times, raised the mining shovel in his hand, and blasted toward the hard rock wall.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

Amidst a series of violent rumbling sounds, countless rock fragments splattered, and a huge deep pit with a diameter of over ten Zhang and a depth of dozens of kilometers appeared in Yang Juncheng's field of vision.

Then, with a thought, Yang Juncheng mobilized the Immortal power in his body to condense gusts of wild wind, blowing through the countless rock fragments, sweeping up the Immortal Stones one by one and sending them into his Storage Pouch.

"Over 2.36 million Immortal Stones?"

"I completed more than three years of mining tasks with just one shovel strike?"

After scanning the number of Immortal Stones in his Storage Pouch with his Divine Sense, Yang Juncheng's eyes lit up, and he murmured softly.

After murmuring, Yang Juncheng poured out all the Immortal Stones from his Storage Pouch, sat cross-legged, circulated his Cultivation Technique, absorbed the Immortal Qi from the Immortal Stones, and began to Cultivate.

One month later, the more than two million Immortal Stones were completely absorbed by Yang Juncheng, turning into a pile of ashes.

And Yang Juncheng's cultivation also rose from the Early Stage of the Heavenly Immortal Realm to the Peak of the Heavenly Immortal Realm.

However, Yang Juncheng did not have the subsequent Cultivation Techniques, so he could only pause his Cultivation and wait until he found them to continue.

As for creating the subsequent Cultivation Techniques himself, Yang Juncheng had never thought about it.

After all, there were many Cultivation Techniques after the Heavenly Immortal Realm. Yang Juncheng could just find some to Cultivate, and there was absolutely no need to create them himself.

"I'll mine some Immortal Stones first, and then find a way to get some Cultivation Techniques for the Golden Immortal and Profound Immortal Realms!"

Feeling the surging power within his body, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Yang Juncheng's mouth, and he murmured softly.

After murmuring, Yang Juncheng quickly picked up his mining shovel, activated his Amplification Talent to the maximum, and blasted toward the rock wall beside him.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

Amidst a series of violent rumbling sounds, a pit over ten Zhang in diameter and dozens of kilometers deep appeared in the mine cave.

Immediately after, Yang Juncheng waved his hand, the Immortal power in his body surged, and a wild wind swept toward the pit. The Immortal Stones mixed among the gravel were swept up one by one and sent into the Storage Pouch in Yang Juncheng's hand.

"Over 2.6 million Immortal Stones, not bad!"

Scanning the Storage Pouch with his Divine Sense, Yang Juncheng muttered to himself with a smile.

While Yang Juncheng was talking to himself, a nearby miner heard the noise and quickly rushed toward the mine cave where Yang Juncheng was located.
