Chapter 694 Ancient Master''s Treasure
Austin flew towards the Crystal Mine Mountain.
Momentster, he could clearly see the top of the mountain covered with nts.
There was a strong celestial spiritual energy emanating from the mountain. It rose high and formed
purple clouds in the sky hovering over the peak.
"The spiritual energying out of it is amazing! Even though I am not good at searching crystals, I
am able to sense the dense spiritual energy emitted by the mountain. There must be something
valuable inside it!"
Austin told himself as he kept staring at the Crystal Mine Mountain.
He was filled with new vigor and approached his destination with an increased speed.
After Austin had left the ce where he had punched the disciples of the Sky Sect to death, thirty to
forty people reached there. They saw the massacre and destruction done.
In the group there were some good cultivators. The ones with the lowest cultivation base were at the
premium stage of Sky Realm. A dozen were Imperial Realm masters.
"Well, look at this carnage. It appears as if a fierce battle was fought here. This ce is a total mess.
Look, here is a big pit and pieces of clothes scattered."
"Look at those clothes. I can tell that those dead cultivators were from the Sky Sect. It is unbelievable
that they have been destroyed so brutally."
"But the question is who did this?"
"I don''t get it. Who would dare to y the disciples of the Sky Sect? Whoever did this is getting himself
in a lot of trouble."
"Did you notice something weird? It seems like those people were beaten to death. The person must
have terrifying amount of physical strength. Do you think the people of the Veritable Demon Sect killed
them?"
"Veritable Demon Sect and Sky Sect are two of the top five sects in our kingdom. If people of the
Veritable Demon Sect did this, I bet the two sects will get into fights soon.
If that happens, many people will die. And we might get involved in it too."
People standing beside the huge pit started to discuss about the consequences eagerly.
"Easy, guys!"
A steady, calm voice broke into the chaos and brought the gossip to an end abruptly.
As the crowd looked around, they saw a tall middle-aged man walking towards them.
With a gleam in his eyes, he exuded a dense, strong vital energy force. It was apparent that he was a
strong cultivator.
The middle-aged man went straight towards the pit. He observed it closely. And a mysterious
expression came on his face.
"Dozens of disciples of the Sky Sect got killed. This time, I guess the powers of the Sky Sect will find
out about the murderer at all costs. It looks like the storm is on its way,"
the middle-aged man sighed.
"We''re close to the Crystal Mine Mountain now,"
a young man said as he walked up towards the middle-aged man.
"I see."
The middle-aged man responded calmly as he looked across at the Crystal Mine Mountain.
"The Sky Sect disciples appeared here. Looks like the other sects and forces also have their eyes set
on this Crystal Mine Mountain.
This also proves that there are many valuable things in that Crystal Mine Mountain. Otherwise,
influential sects like the Sky Sect wouldn''t have been interested in it. There must have been a fight to
gain ess to the Crystal Mine Mountain.
Fine! Let''s get going. This time, we must get that Crystal Mine Mountain for our n. You guys should
be careful and alert.
If we can get that mine, we will be rewarded handsomely,"
the middle-aged man continued.
"We will, sir,"
the rest replied in unison.
The group from the Kong n flew towards their destination.
After they left the ce, another group of people flew past the ce where the disciples of the Sky
Sect had lost their lives. And they too were shocked to see the carnage thaty there.
"Oh! Looks like two forces got into a fierce fight there."
A dismissive male voice echoed mid-air.
The next minute, a bulky mannded on the ground.
The dark-skinned man had a wrinkled face. His eyes were piercing and deep. He was such a big guy
that the sound of his footsteps was deafening.
He made his way to the hole, and observed it carefully.
Dozens of people followed him towards the huge pit. It was bing quite a center of attention for
every group that passed by.
"Sir, did you discover anything?"
a strong man asked as he joined the bulky man.
"This is strange. They were surely the disciples of the Sky Sect.
Obviously they were shredded to pieces by someone with powerful physical strength.
This looks like the way the people of our sect fight with others.
Did our men do this?
If that''s the case, people of the Sky Sect will think that we have dered war on them.
For years there has been hostility between us and the people of the Sky Sect. If this has really been
done by our disciples, then there will be serious consequences,"
the strong man said, looking worried about what could happen when the news of this destruction
reached the Sky Sect.
"I know what we can do! We''ll send someone to give a message to Steward Dale and call upon him to
deal with this."
The strong youth agreed. He selected one of the group members to go back to the Dragon City and
ask Dale toe there.
"We came here to collect information about that Crystal Mine Mountain. Let''s go. We must reach there
before others do."
The brawny man led the other men to the Crystal Mine Mountain. . .. There was another path to reach
the quarry.
It was across the woods.
Two other groups were also moving towards the Crystal Mine Mountain. Each of these groups had
around a hundred people.
The two forces met on the way.
"Hello, Keller!
Here you are!"
A tall thin man dressed in green greeted the leader of the other group.
"Are you sure about the things you told me?" the man in red robes asked.
The red-robed man was the leader of the Evergreen Sect--Keller Zhong.
"Here he is, Teddy!"
he informed someone as he caught sight of another leader who was leading his disciples towards him.
The stout and short man burst intoughter and said, "Nice to meet you here, my friends."
When he spoke, the pretentious joy was visible on his face.
"Of course, I am. It is too much for me to handle alone, so I asked you for help.
When we get it, we will split the treasure,"
the Sect Leader of the Iron Palm Sect said. He was the one who wore green clothes.
"You don''t have to be so formal, Nick. We three are sworn brothers.
We''ll be d to do it as a favor," Teddy replied.
The fact was that the Flying Fish Sect, the Iron Palm Sect and the Evergreen Sect were three small
sects in the Heavenly Dragon Holy Kingdom.
They had already nned and agreed to meet there.
"Nick, as far as I know, many sects have spotted the Crystal Mine Mountain. The top five sects and four
influential ns have also sent their men here to gather information,"

the Sect Leader of the Flying Fish Sect said worriedly.
"Hmm. Is that so? Compared to them, we''re nothing," the Sect Leader of Evergreen Sect said with
frustration clear in his voice.
"Teddy, Keller, give me some credit. Trust me. I never make hasty decisions,"
the Sect Leader of the Iron Palm Sect exined calmly.
"The truth is that there is relevant information about this Crystal Mine Mountain in my genealogy.
I didn''t pay much attention to the information about the mine before since there was no mention of its
location.
But recently I heard the news that a mine has been discovered in the Sunset Mountain. It made me
connect this Crystal Mine Mountain to the one recorded in my genealogy. After doing some research, I
found out the two refer to the same mine.
ording to my genealogy, there is something more valuable than crystals inside the Crystal Mine
Mountain.
The personal treasures of one of the ancient masters in the Prime Martial World were buried there.
They are still hidden there.
My n got to know this secret at the cost of the lives of many of our n members. It was the price we
paid for getting that secret.
After I discovered it, I sent some of my old experts to get into the mine. They were able to get in and
have confirmed my spection!
An ancient master''s lifetime personal collection had been hidden there for so long."
Nick then paused, greed clearly visible in his eyes.
"Keller, Teddy, I don''t need to tell you how valuable an ancient master''s collections would be, do I? It''s
impossible for us to enter the Master Realm with our current cultivation resources and talent. If we don''t
seize this opportunity, we might have to spend the rest of our lives being bullied by the people of the
five major sects and four influential ns. Is that the life you want? Don''t you want to grasp this
opportunity to change your fate?"
When the other Sect Leaders heard this, their eyes red with hope and anger.
Keller licked his lips and said, "Damn it! If nothing''s ventured, nothing''s gained.
This is a good chance for us. I''m in!"
"I''m in too!"
Teddy joined in. The Sect Leaders knew that this opportunity was too big and too good to be left off.
