Swallowing the Stars: You Can't Escape, Mountain Dweller

Chapter 178 The Madness of the Cosmic Crystal

In the world of the Lord of Canglan Star.

Bai Yang and five others are quickly cleaning up the battlefield.

"Haha, no wonder she's an elite from Hundred Tigers Tower, that young lady is incredibly wealthy!"

Thor was very pleased with himself, "Another spatial ring, and a telekinetic weapon too."

On their way to Wind and Thunder Canyon, there were always some clueless people who came to cause them trouble.

The result was that we were just throwing money and lives at them for nothing.

"Third brother, aren't we being too conspicuous?"

In just a few days, they have killed more than a dozen groups of people.

Bai Yang always insisted on leaving none behind.

"Brother Hong, don't worry. This is the purpose of the assessment."

Hundred Tiger Tower is one of the four major organizations of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire. Look at Nuolan Mountain, how arrogant is he?

What do we mean by this?

"That's right! They came to rob and kill us, they deserved to die."

Luo Feng also agreed with Bai Yang's approach.

At this point, they were very close to their destination.

Wind and Thunder Canyon, the core of this world of thunder.

The central region is also the most dangerous place!

However, one of the items required to pass the cosmic apprentice mercenary assessment—the Windhorn Stone—must be obtained from this Wind and Thunder Canyon.

Everyone is moving in one direction, and the battles they encounter along the way are increasing.

At this moment, Babata suddenly appeared and said, "Luo Feng, there are a total of 1092 humans within a 20-kilometer radius of your team."

"So many?" Luo Feng was taken aback. He looked around and could only barely make out two or three small teams.

Bai Yang narrowed his eyes slightly; even he couldn't sense so many people at this distance.

"Most of the squads are near the canyon, and they are all hiding, so it's hard to spot any squads without a careful search," Babata added.

"Understood," Luo Feng replied.

……

On the barren mountain range, the stones are almost entirely black, with only some silver interspersed.

The very center of the mountain range was as if it had been cleaved in two by a divine sword, creating a canyon known as the "Wind and Thunder Canyon".

The gale, originating from the primordial energy of the universe, howled wildly, carrying a large number of broken stones, including some wind-eroded rocks, which danced in the wind.

Hidden in various places along the mountain walls on both sides of the canyon are the younger generation from many families, forces, and planets in the Black Dragon Mountain Starfield.

The six found a cave and carefully hid there.

Next, all you need to do is wait patiently.

Bai Yang awaited the opening of the Realm Within a Realm, while the others pondered how to obtain the Wind Corner Stone.

The range of spiritual energy is limited here, so Luo Feng plans to use the Cloud Vine to explore the mountaintop little by little.

All other methods are too dangerous.

This process is extremely slow, and several days can easily pass in the blink of an eye.

Luo Feng even encountered He Ruo, a friend he had met in the killing field.

One day, the entire Thunder World suddenly began to shake violently, without any warning!

Tens of thousands of star-level adventurers who came for the assessment all looked up in astonishment at their surroundings and the world.

Luo Feng's team and He Ruo's team were equally shocked as they looked up at their surroundings. The whole world was trembling, and the mountains were shaking.

A pitch-black hole, seemingly torn open, appeared. Half of the hole was on the mountain range, and the other half was inside it. The surrounding space was torn apart, making it incredibly eerie.

"It's finally here!"

Bai Yang had waited so many days, and finally the opening of the Realm Within a Realm was about to begin.

All the experienced trial participants, once they understood what this was, immediately rushed in!

After Babata quickly introduced himself to everyone, Bai Yang took the lead and rushed in immediately.

On this day, the entire Black Dragon Mountain Empire was shaken by this news.

The creator of the Thunder World, 'Lord Kabu', was a peak Lord-level expert back then!

What treasures might he have hidden in the world within a world he created?

Countless forces rushed madly toward the Thunder World.

"Third brother, you risked your life to bring us in. Did you have something on your mind?"

Thor found Bai Yang's actions somewhat strange.

"That's right! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make money."

This is an unexplored world, let's dig for [Cosmic Crystals]!

Everyone had seen the information beforehand, and the answer came to them instantly!

One Cosmic Crystal is equal to 1 Cosmic Coins!

"Do you have any good ideas?"

Hong immediately asked.

Bai Yang took out the Spirit Energy Meter, opened the back cover, and put a small pinch of powder inside.

Then the pointer immediately points in a certain direction!

They had seen this thing when they were with the Golden Horned Beast, and they never expected it could still be used now!

"I bought some cosmic crystal powder specifically for my research. I never expected it would come in so handy."

Bai Yang said casually.

But at this point, no one cared about that; the other five were all breathing heavily.

The six of them rushed frantically in the direction of the pointer at the fastest speed they had ever seen.

After flying for a few minutes, they arrived at a barren sandy area.

"Right here, about two thousand meters underground."

Bai Yang looked at the compass in his hand and said.

"Let's dig!"

Thor and Luo Feng are both eager to get started; they are currently in dire need of money.

They had never done this kind of heavy work before.

The speed is not fast at all.

"Luo Feng, you could use the Cloud-Piercing Vine to hold that blade fragment and drill down; that might be faster," Bai Yang said.

"yes!"

Luo Feng immediately took out the "Fragment of the Crimson Copper Mother" and prepared to send his Cloud-Piercing Vine down.

"Bring this Star Guardian terminal with you too. It can help calculate quantities and detect the location of underground mineral deposits."

I used it frequently during my Mars development work.

Bai Yang took out a watch-shaped mechanical device and handed it to Luo Feng.

Upon seeing this, Babata's face instantly fell.

He originally wanted to take the opportunity to make a quick buck!

A long vine of the Moyun Vine grabbed the watch and the crystal core wristband where Babata was located.

The top vines entwined around the fragment of the red copper mother and quickly extended downwards!

A dozen minutes later, 2100 meters underground.

Huge, blocky, deep blue crystals, resembling the color of the starry sky, are embedded in the rock.

A vine stretched for over a kilometer to reach this spot, and on the vine was a bracelet.

"Hahaha! Collect it for me!" Babata shouted triumphantly.

The enormous, deep blue crystal vanished instantly, disappearing into the storage space.

"18400 square meters!"

A message was automatically sent to their group chat; it was Star Guardian's message.

"My God! Nearly 20 million cosmic coins are in my hands!"

Thor is going crazy.

They've been in this world for less than forty minutes!

"How many Qianwu coins is that? I can't even count them all! This money is too easy to make!"

Bai Yang laughed and said, "What's this? We've only just begun."

From now on, let's forget about any "Qianwu Coins" and just use "Cosmic Coins"!

"Hurry up!" Luo Feng said, "Let's continue!"

Even he was envious of such a fast money-making speed!
