Lin Mu was unfazed by the geyser of Baleful energies and stood still.
"Xiao Yin, Xiao Yang, time to eat." Lin Mu called them out.
~HISS~
The twin snakes appeared from the Sleepscape and rushed towards the baleful energies. They looked very excited as the gushing Baleful energies were no different than a great meal to them.
~SHUA~
The twins opened their mouths and sucked in the baleful energies.
The spout changed its direction and bent towards the twins. It split in two, before being swallowed by the twins greedily. To them this was no different from a great tonic, and after their breakthrough to the Second Tribtion Stage of the Immortal realm their appetite had only increased more.
In just a minute, they had sucked away all the baleful energies.
~HISS~
Once that was done, the two snakes spat out clouds of energies that they couldn''t use. This was the opposite to their element and was absorbed by their sibling.
This way, there was no waste of energy, and everything was used.
~SASASA~
The twins wrapped around Lin Mu''s shoulders, wanting more.
"We''ll get moreter. Don''t worry," Lin Mu rubbed their heads that had grown a bit.
~HISS~
The twins nodded their heads and watched what Lin Mu was doing. He let them stay there, while he got to work. Lin Mu jumped into the hole and saw the shimmering red crystal at the bottom.
"Oh? It''s the biggest one we''ve seen so far." Lin Mu said in surprise.
~thud~
Hended at the bottom and saw the watermelon sized Blood Essence Crystal.
"Guess that''s why there was such a high amount of Baleful Energy trapped here." Lin Mu muttered before pulling out the Blood Essence Crystal.
He stored it in the ring, before getting to the main part.
~SHUA~
His Immortal Sense spread once more and prated the ground. It went deeper and deeper until it was over two thousand meters deep. It was at this point that he finally detected what he hade for.
"There it is… The Baleful Energies had masked its presence really well." Lin Mu took note of the effect, wondering if it could be applied elsewhere.
If there was anyone else that passed by here and sensed the Baleful Energies, they wouldn''t even try to dig for the fear of getting corroded by the energies. Thus there was no chance of someone finding the Immortal Stone Mine that was hidden below.
But even then, it was quite deep being at over two thousand meters.
Excavating it would be a difficult task even for immortals, and would take a long time. But for Lin Mu, it was as easy as walking through the air. Lin Mu sent the twin snakes back to the Sleepscape before using a skill.<novelnext></novelnext>
Phase!
Lin Mu sank using his spatial skill and only stopped when he couldn''t pass through ayer.
"It''s Immortal Stones alright… It''s got dense enough Immortal Qi to prevent Phase from working." Lin Mu used this method to confirm his guess.
Phase didn''t work when there was any kind of dense energy blocking it. It didn''t matter if it was pure energy, in the form of an object, or if it was arrays. Still, it was something that could be bypassed using a method as crude as punching through.
But Lin Mu had a far more refined method of getting in.
~CHING~
He simply used Meld and cleanly cut away a straight path into the inner area of the mine. At the same time, he stored away therge chunks of Low Grade Immortal Stones he had just cut off with meld.
"This should be the outermost area… and seeing how it''s almost encapsting the mine, it should be a high grade mine at the very least." Lin Mu assessed from what he had learned before.
While there were many ways an Immortal Stone mine could form, there were still a few generalizations. One of them being that High Grade immortal Stone mines would grow to the point where the low grade immortal stones would start to rise up and wrap around it.
Forming an outeryer that looked like a capsule.
This was one of the typical ways an Immortal Stone mine would grow.
Seeing this, Lin Mu felt rather pleased as it meant that the Source Vein at the center of the mine would be very productive.
~THUD~Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.
Lin Mu jumped in through the top of the mine andnded on top of a ledge. The entire ledge was made of Immortal Stones and was encrusted along a rockyyer.
~WHISTLE~
"That''s arge mine…" Lin Mu saw a beautiful sight in front of him.
The Immortal Stones spanned for as far as he could see. The stones formedrge crystal structures that reflected light from a fewrge crystals at the central area. Theserge crystal were none other than the High grade immortal stones as they could actually emit natural light.
The shimmering crystals looked mesmerizing, and it was as if one was ncing at the insides of a finely cut diamond.
"Well then… Let''s get started." Lin Mu smiled widely.
He called out Little Shrubby first and asked him to search for any rare materials in the mine. After all, there weren''t just Immortal Stones in an immortal stone mine. Other materials such as ores and gems are also born within them that can turn into rare materials.
"Collect all those that you find while I''ll go to the core." Lin Mu ordered.
"Okay! I''ll do that." Little Shrubby was excited too as simply by being here, he could feel his cultivation base improving.
And since he knew that all this would be added to the Sleepscape, the beast was even more excited.
~WHOOSH~
Little Shrubby turned into a red blur and started searching for the materials, while Lin Mu flew to the central area of the mine.
A few minutester he arrived at the middle part, which waspletely surrounded by glowing Immortal stones.
