RETURN OF THE EMPEROR

CHAPTER 15: CRYSTAL MINE

Cristi was very confused about the usefulness of the already empty crystal mine, but he did not ask much more and just followed Myro.

Myro and Cristi walked towards the field to see the 100 disciples who were already standing there, all of the disciples immediately bowed respectfully to "Patriak, elder of Gristi".

The gristi who was beside Myro explained in a small voice "Patriak, these are 100 disciples according to the requirements you said. They were all new disciples who had the most talent among the others, at least some of them already had the power of Qi Fondation cultivation. Though they had only been cultivating for a few days, therefore their talent could be said to be quite more than thousands of other disciples. Besides, I never told anyone this so that the other disciples would not become sad or demoralized".

Myro nodded and stood upright in front of these disciples "You must have heard from elder Cristi to carry a weapon, today we are going to hunt monsters! Don't go far from me or elder Gristi, if you don't listen and die at the hands of monsters then it's your own fault. Do you guys understand?".

"We understand, patriarch!", replied the 100 disciples firmly.

"We're leaving now!", Myro and Cristi lead the disciples on foot toward the pit, they could actually fly but these hundreds of disciples could not so Myro and Cristi led them on foot.

While walking, Cristi could not ask again "Patriak, are we going to fight the monsters? How much monster power will we fight? If it is strong enough then it is better to bring the other elders".

Myro waved his hand "No need to worry, we won't go too far into the mine so the monsters we will be fighting won't be too strong. However, there must have been many powerful monsters in the mine, it would not even rule out the existence of a martial general-level monster".

"Very strong? Why are there so many monsters in the mine? Shouldn't all the monsters have been killed by the sect that previously lived here, otherwise the miners would definitely die while working!", said Cristi doubtfully.

But Myro shook his head in response "It seems you still don't understand. What kind of place could have a diamond crystal mine? It must be a place that had a lot of energy, this made the monsters living there become stronger due to absorbing a lot of energy in the mine from the previous crystal gem".

"The energy in heaven and earth in the mines is much stronger than anywhere else, therefore even previously normal animals can become martial generals. Then the further away go to the mine then the monster will be stronger because the energy in the place there will be greater, the greater, the most important thing is that this energy will always be able to recover over time which makes this place can always be used".

"Energy there can strengthen monsters which means this is the same for humans, it might not have much effect for those of us who have already reached the high level Saint King stage, but what happens if we absorb the crystals in the mine. Most likely, the crystal absorbing effect in the mine would be 1.5-2.5 times better than anywhere else! A place that could make the effectiveness of the absorption of treasures increase, not to mention that the energy at that place would never run out. The sect that had previously stayed here and decided to leave could only be said to be blind, unable to see that the treasure on the mine was not just a diamond crystal but rather the mine itself was his treasure!".

Cristi was also surprised, now he understood how important this mine was. If one were to absorb the crystals elsewhere and increase their strength by 1 level, then absorbing the crystals in the mine could increase one's strength by approximately 2 levels, moreover, this place could be used by hundreds of people simultaneously which was truly a precious treasure.

There was actually no one who knew the function of the depleted diamond crystal mine for now, the one who had first discovered this should have been a patriarch in a tier 3 sect.

After this news appeared, a bloody war ensued and there were many people fighting over the location of the diamond crystal mine. Even 5 Emperors fought because there were only 10 locations of the mine, in the end all diamond crystal mines were occupied by 5 Emperors and 1 more person, in the end, as for the other sects then they had no chance.

The usefulness of the diamond crystal mine was not only that, but the monsters the mine produced were also very useful. In addition to training the fighting disciples, some monsters had their crystal cores that could also be absorbed. Therefore, no matter whether a diamond crystal mine still had crystals to mine or not, this place would always be precious.

But Myro knew that the other 9 mines had not run out of crystals which made there still a sect that occupied it, so Myro could now only control this mine.

Finally they arrived at the mine, this place has a shape like a giant hole that descended underground, there are also stairs to go down that the miners made first so they do not need to be confused how to go down.

Fortunately the monsters in the mine would never leave their territory because the energy in the mine was too precious, they were afraid that as long as they left then there would be other monsters to seize it. So the people who live in this city have never been attacked by monsters.

"Use each of you lighting, we will go down!", said Myro who immediately went down the stairs, he did not need any lighting because Myro's power was enough to make him able to see in the dark.

Myro was at the very front while Cristi was at the very back, they did this to protect the disciples.

When they had descended in the middle of the road, Cristi felt the aura around her change as the energy around her felt more and more. Now that he completely understood what Myro meant, the energy in the mine was far greater than anywhere else.

They finally reached the bottom, the state of this mine was very dark and cold, even some disciples had to use their energy to reduce the chill from the wind around.

"Graaaaa!", suddenly a shout came from the distance of this mine as if the existence told me that Myro and the others were not welcome here, so it was better to leave immediately or die.

But Myro did not care about the yelling that gave the warning, he said like taking his students to go on vacation "Then let's go, this will be a good opportunity to train you guys!".
