Chapter 4000: Mine
“Ghost Spirit Crystal?” Ling Han asked.
The woman nodded, “That’s right. When the strength of our souls has advanced into the True Self Tier, killing ordinary Yin souls would no longer be able to strengthen our souls. We would only be able to kill True Self Tier Yin souls, or… use Ghost Spirit Crystals.”
“And then?” Ling Han asked.
The woman was neither too fast nor too slow, “There are very few Yin souls of True Self Tier, and they are also very hard to kill…”
At this point, she paused. This did not seem to be applicable to Ling Han. Just now, this guy had practically killed a Yin soul of consummate True Self Tier. He could not be measured in terms of common sense.
She continued, “So, if one can refine the Ghost Spirit Crystal, it would be much simpler.”
Ling Han smiled, “You know where there is a large number of Ghost Spirit Crystals?”
“That’s right.” The woman nodded, “Oh, that’s right, my name is Chi Xuan. I come from the Donglin Imperial Clan.”
“Continue.” Ling Han did not show any reverence towards the Imperial Clan, and nodded very casually.
Chi Xuan appeared slightly surprised. This young man was really calm. He was completely unmoved even when he heard the words “Imperial Clan”. No wonder he dared to challenge Fu Huoyang.
She withdrew her surprise, and continued, “Our Donglin Imperial Clan has long since entered here, so we know more about this place.”
At this point, she stopped again.
Ling Han couldn’t help but sigh. What was wrong with her? Was she trying to keep him hanging?
He did not speak either, and merely looked at Chi Xuan.
Chi Xuan was a little disappointed. This guy was too calm, wasn’t he? She didn’t even know where to start if she wanted to use the secret to blackmail him into negotiating an alliance.
“There’s a mine of Ghost Spirit Crystal here,” she said directly.
Ling Han finally revealed a shocked expression, and asked, “Really?”
“En.” Chi Xuan nodded, “However, the mine is occupied by the Western Desert King, and there is a powerful Yin soul keeping watch at all times. Our Donglin Imperial Clan is inviting all the young prodigies in the world to work together to take down this mine. At the very least, we would have to snatch some Ghost Spirit Crystals.”
Sure enough, Ling Han had already guessed that the prodigy gathering this time wasn’t as simple as simply selecting a son-in-law for Chi Menghan. In fact, this was only a pretense.
-She was a noble daughter of the Imperial Clan, and was also a seductive beauty ranked third on the Beauty Roll. Was there any need to use this kind of method to choose a partner?
“Previously, our clan had indeed invited a large number of prodigies to launch an attack on that mine, but we never thought that the strength of the guards would exceed our imagination. Almost all of us were wiped out, and only a very small number managed to escape separately,” Chi Xuan said.
Ling Han thought for a moment, then asked, “What are the abilities of the strongest elites?”
“Late stage of the Spiritual Transformation Tier,” Chi Xuan replied.
Ling Han frowned slightly. Relying on the strength of the Destructive Energy, he could even match the early stage of the Spiritual Transformation Tier. However, if he encountered a middle stage Spiritual Transformation Tier, he would be done for. If he encountered a late stage Spiritual Transformation Tier, his only fate would definitely be to flee.
However, if they couldn’t snatch the mine, but could they steal the mine?

Chi Xuan smiled faintly, “With Brother Ding’s strength, if we work together, we should be able to steal some ores.”
“You know about me?” Ling Han was surprised.
“As the host, how could I not know the identity of a guest?” Chi Xuan countered.
Ling Han laughed loudly, “All right, we will go and steal the mine.”
When they returned to the Living Realm, natural treasures that could strengthen the soul were too rare. Even the Imperial Clan couldn’t supply them in large quantities. Thus, when the Donglin Imperial Clan discovered this place, and when they discovered the existence of the Ghost Spirit Crystal, they couldn’t remain calm any longer, and immediately called for the Prodigy Gathering this time.
Moreover, in order to keep this a secret, they had even used the excuse of finding a husband for Chi Menghan.
Of course, if it weren’t for the fact that the Natural Treasured Gourd could only accommodate cultivators below the True Self Tier, the Donglin Imperial Clan wouldn’t have been so
generous.
Ling Han’s soul wasn’t weak, but compared to his battle prowess, it couldn’t be considered top-notch at all. Thus, he couldn’t miss this opportunity.
The two of them happily reached an agreement, and Chi Xuan led the way, heading towards the mine.
After spending close to a day’s time, they finally arrived at the mine.
“Yi?” Ling Han was surprised. There was actually a formation here, and it was extremely brilliant at that.
“You saw through it?” Chi Xuan was also quite surprised. This guy also knew formation techniques.
Ling Han nodded, “Who would’ve thought that there would be Formation Masters among yin souls.”
Chi Xuan looked at Ling Han, and a hint of admiration appeared on her face, “I had not expected either. Not only do you have astonishing battle prowess, you are also proficient in formation techniques.”
“I can’t be considered proficient, but I do have some understanding.” Ling Han was modest. “This formation has already been broken through by the Formation Master of my clan. Please follow me,” Chi Xuan said.
Ling Han nodded in understanding. Since it was already broken through, he didn’t need to waste any more effort.
The two of them entered into the formation, and with Chi Xuan leading the way, the two of them soon walked out.
The mountain was still the same mountain, and the sky was still the same. It was dark and gloomy, but in truth, they had indeed passed through a formation area.
“This formation is actually mainly to prevent weak Yin souls from entering by accident,” Chi Xuan said, “According to the deductions of the Saints of my clan, there are not many Ghost Spirit Crystals in the Netherworld, so it is impossible to create powerful Yin souls in this
way.”
“However, the number of Yin souls is endless. Hence, using this as bait, allowing the Yin souls to devour each other, only then would they be able to endlessly create powerful Yin
souls.”
Ling Han nodded in understanding. The universe was far too large, and large amounts of living beings would die at any moment. Their souls would also enter the Netherworld.
“Be careful. There are three Spiritual Transformation Tier Yin souls standing guard here,” Chi
Xuan said solemnly.
“All right.”
The two of them advanced, and soon saw some Yin souls mining, and these Yin souls were all Core Formation Tier souls who had gained intelligence.
True, if it hadn’t developed intelligence, it wouldn’t have be mining the mountain, and if the Ghost Spirit Crystal was mined, the yin soul would refine it itself, so how could it be handed
over?
Only with reverence would one not dare to be greedy.
It was just like how mortals dug out gold ores, who would dare to take it for themselves?
“What do you want to do?” Chi Xuan asked Ling Han.
“Since this is a mine, it should be excavated here and there. We don’t have to stick to this
place,” Ling Han said after some thought.
“All right.”
The two of them switched locations, then using the Soul Tool as a shovel, began digging.
Of course, it was impossible that there would be ore immediately after digging, and the two of them were both calm. Though they had dug for a long time without any results, they were
not discouraged.
But when there was not the slightest bit of gain for a whole two days, a thought rose up in both of them, and that was there really might not be any Ghost Spirit Crystals in this area.
“Let’s go somewhere else.”
They kept changing locations to dig, but the result was the same. They had gained nothing.
“No way, only that area has Ghost Spirit Crystal?” Both of them were speechless.
They returned to where the Yin souls were mining, and observed carefully. After half a day, they saw these yin souls dig out two Ghost Spirit Crystals. Though they
weren’t very big, nor were they very pure, they did indeed have some gains.
“Forced robbery?” Chi Xuan asked.
Ling Han shook his head, and said, “There are only two Ghost Spirit Crystals, so it isn’t worth
it to alert the elites here.”
“Then what do you mean?” “Steal their stores.”
