Deep within the mine, Gu Sheng was focused on digging, his Divine Thought quietly spreading outward as the Demon Soul of the Green Vine extended through the darkness, searching for traces of Spiritual Energy.
Suddenly, a faint sound of air being split reached his ears. His heart tightened, and he immediately raised his head cautiously.
A short-statured miner appeared, clutching an iron pickaxe, his face twisted in a feral grin as he charged toward Gu Sheng.
"Kid, hand over the Spirit Stones, and I might leave you with an intact corpse!" the short miner growled viciously.
Gu Sheng sneered coldly and said, "If you want the Spirit Stones, let's see if you have the skill to take them."
With that, his figure shifted. The Carefree Ascension Step was instantly activated, leaving behind a blurry afterimage as he vanished from where he stood.
