efinitely not naturally formed!Qin Sang racked his brains, recalling that he had once seen similar records in an ancient book.There is a kind of gale, called the Xuan Shuang Sha Wind.Where the Xuan霜煞風...At least tens of thousands of Cloud Beasts were hovering above the chasm, and there were definitely even more inside. What if we startled them...

Everyone's heart was pounding with fear.

"Ahead is a secret passage, and beneath it lies the entrance to the ore vein. It's actually safer once you're inside the vein itself. This passageway is the most dangerous part. Everyone must be extremely careful and absolutely not act alone or expose our presence. Otherwise, I will not hesitate to drop you down!"

Yinheng sang coldly looked at the crowd, his eyes carrying a strong warning.

Everyone's expression was solemn, no one dared to joke about their own lives.

The passage is carved into the stone walls of the Great Rift Valley. Going down, you'd practically be walking right alongside the cloud beast herd. Like last time, with only Qin Sang and his two companions controlling it, it wouldn't be enough to fully unleash the power of the star chart. They would likely be detected by the cloud beasts.

Ten people together poured their spiritual energy into the star chart. The star chart suddenly opened, a black light enveloping everyone present. After the star chart stabilized, both the people and the star chart vanished from the spot.

“Let’s go!”

Yin Xingge led the way, and everyone followed closely behind.

As we get closer and closer to the rift, even the cloudsaurs' feathers are visible to the naked eye.

These cloud beasts resemble a type of demon beast called the Lingyun Eagle, but their beaks and claws are far more ferocious. They are twice the size of a Lingyun Eagle and their feathers are much darker, like pieces of blade-shaped black iron.

The biggest difference lies in their eyes, which are as black as ink as their color and feathers. There isn't a spark of life in them, perhaps with a hint of animal instinct, but it is overshadowed by the aura of violence and bloodshed.

Qin Sang recalled the information he had seen before, knowing that these Cloud Beasts were descendants of the Lingyun carving clan who had been corrupted by the Cloud Beast's soul essence. After countless years of evolution, besides looking similar to the Lingyun carving, they had no relation to them at all.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

These cloud beasts, resembling the Lingyun carving, possess strength comparable to Qi Refining cultivators. However, this is only at the uppermost layer of the Great Rift Valley. It is said that in the depths of the rift, there exist beings comparable to Core Formation cultivators.

The secret passage was on the cliff face of the Grand Rift Valley. Everyone knew its location and could find it easily. It was just a narrow stone path, only wide enough for one person to pass through. It sloped downward and there was no end in sight.

A long line of snake-like formations slithered into the secret passage, their heads constantly circled by a dense swarm of cloud beasts. Even Qin Sang couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine. His mind was firmly fixed on the nine people in front of him.

Whoever dares to make a move, needn't Yin Xingge take action, Qin Sang would also hesitate for no moment to kick him out.

Whew! Whew...

A few cloud beasts swept past their heads and landed on the rocks not far ahead.

They seemed to sense the presence of their kind nearby. They turned their heads to look, but saw nothing. Then, with a puzzled expression, they turned back and began preening their feathers.

Luckily, these cloud beasts weren't very powerful and couldn't see through the star chart's disguise. Everyone froze in place, breaking out in a cold sweat.

A Qi Refinement cultivator swallowed nervously and couldn't help but transmit his voice, "Senior Yin, what should we do now"

"Wait!"

Yin Xing'e turned her head and glared at him fiercely, saying coldly.

The man dared not speak again. The valley echoed with the strange calls of the cloud beasts, making people uneasy and jittery. Everyone stood frozen in place, afraid to move, for a full hour. Finally, the few cloud beasts finished smoothing their feathers and took flight, 'caw caw' calling as they merged into the 'black cloud'.

"Hurry!"

Yin Xing'e urged them on, and the group quickly descended through the secret passage. They saw the second layer of "black clouds," then the third, fourth...

Finally, a corner appeared at the front of the tunnel. I squeezed into the crevice in the cliff wall.

Everyone rushed into the cave and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Mu Dao-friend, Qin Dao-friend, Yun Qiong junior sister, all of you take out your magical artifacts. If you encounter a cloud beast blocking the way, kill it with thunderous force, do not give it a chance to struggle, and absolutely do not touch the mountain body, lest you startle those outside."

Yin Xing's reminder reached Qin Sang's ears, and he immediately summoned the ebony sword. In this kind of place, it wasn't a time to be humble, and the ebony sword's biggest trump card lay in 'human-sword unity, vanishing like shadows'. As long as he was careful not to expose that aspect, keeping it for self-defense would be sufficient.

Yun Qiong scattered a ball of glass, the light shone like a rainbow, flowing like water, flickering and rising, then stretching open, transforming into a small piece of sky. This was Yun Qiong's signature magic weapon: the five-color glass.

The Glassware commands the Five Elements, capable of transforming spirits into rain. It sounds similar to Qin Sang's Five Element Cloud, but the multicolored glaze evolves into deadly raindrops, filled with killing intent!

The passage is also narrow in space, otherwise, the five-colored glazed tile could directly cover half the sky. Once covered by the five-colored glazed tile, no matter which way you flee, you can't escape the rain array's killing.

Then Yin Xingge spread open a fairy net, woven from Xuan iron. The moment it was released, it shimmered like a thundercloud, perfectly complementing the five-colored glazed beads of Yun Qiong's scattered fan.

This artifact is called the Yunlei Golden Net. It contains the power of lightning, but its greatest strength isn't attacking with lightning, but using the lightning threads to bind opponents and prevent them from escaping. Using it here is very suitable.

Mu Yifeng's Nine Fire Divine Edge, Qin Sang had seen before. Nine fire dragons circled the edge, making it extremely sharp.

All three of them brought out top-grade magic weapons, and their powers were not weak. Coupled with Qin Sang's ebony sword, the four of them worked together, even encountering a cloud beast whose strength was equivalent to that of a cultivator at the Qi Refining stage, they could instantly slay it.

The remaining six Qi Refining Stage guardians only need to focus on manipulating the star chart.

Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!

As expected, they encountered a cloud beast that had strayed onto their path. The four of them worked together seamlessly. Yun Lei Jin Wang shot out lightning ropes, binding the cloud beast. Then Qin Sang and his companions seized the opportunity and attacked simultaneously. Along the way, nothing unexpected happened, and they successfully killed several cloud beasts before finally reaching the entrance to the mineral vein.

The entrance is located on the stone wall of the secret passage. It appears to be an ordinary stone wall to the naked eye, and even a divine sense scan doesn't reveal anything unusual. In reality, it has been sealed by a forbidden technique used by the high-cultivator Hanging Skull, requiring a special magical artifact to open.

They were deep underground now, everyone moving with extreme caution, afraid to make even the slightest sound. Yin Xingge took out a small blue seal and silently pressed it against the stone wall.

The blue print turned into a mass of azure mist, completely seeping into the stone wall. Then, the stone wall melted silently like ice, revealing a cave.

A crowd surged in, and upon seeing the spectacle within the cave, they couldn't help but gasp in amazement.

Whether naturally formed or man-made, the depths of the earth were hollowed out, creating a vast space comparable in size to the surrounding chasm. At the bottom of this space, red fluorite glowed with faint fluorescence, like fireflies.

These fluorites are just ordinary gemstones, being gangue minerals accompanying quartz.

The surface's quartzite had already been mined out, and everyone cautiously descended to the bottom of the space, finding the marked passageway and diving down into it. They didn't know how deep they went until they finally felt the temperature in the passage rising.ike expanding the bottle's capacity but welding the lid shut.If one cultivates the Golden Core first and waits for spiritual power to fill the body, the Golden Core is already taking shape.
