"It's a spirit vein!" Gu Cheng muttered as he took a deep breath to calm himself. His eyes remained fixed on the countless crystals embedded inside the mountain. Even with his calm nature, there was a faint excitement in his expression.
"Spirit stones are unearthed from the spiritual veins, right?" Ethan asked.
"Yes." Gu Cheng nodded.
"The spirit stones must contain Qi but how can there be Qi out here?" Henna voiced her opinion as she looked around the mine with a confused expression.
Gu Cheng did not answer immediately. He slowly turned around and looked deeper into the mine. His expression suddenly changed and his eyes brightened.
"I sensed something."
Without wasting any more time, Gu Cheng moved deeper into the mine. Ethan and Henna exchanged a glance before following him. The deeper they went, the stronger the strange energy became. The crystals around them also became more concentrated and the faint glow coming from them slowly became brighter.
