Chapter 1706 Creatures From Ancient Times (Part One)


    Just as Austin was about to activate his bodily movement skill, the mine began shaking violently.


    The mine trembled fiercely as if an earthquake with a strong magnitude struck the ce.


    Swoosh! An immense aura of danger approached Austin from behind. He felt it surging towards him.


    He unleashed his spiritual sense to check what was behind him but found nothing. It frightened him a


    little bit to realize that spiritual sense did not work in the mines. He had no choice but to look back and


    check it out himself. As he turned around, he was taken aback by the swirling dense ck mist that


    was approaching him at a terrifyingly fast speed.


    "Everybody, run! Quickly! The ck mist ising again!" he shouted at the miners in front of him.


    They had been stumbling along the mine out of sheer fear.


    Austin used his bodily movement skill and reached them in a sh. He used his vital energy force as he


    secretly gave them a boost. The miners had no chance to escape on their own.


    A huge wave of power surged and pushed the miners towards the entrance of the mine. They all felt


    the propelling force that drove them to get out faster.


    In the next second, they found themselves just a few meters away from the entrance of the mine.


    Austin did not get them out directly because he did not want the three elders of the Rudimentary Holy


    Land to get suspicious. After all, he was now pretending to be an ordinary miner who knew nothing


    about martial art skills just like the miners around him.


    "Run! Faster! The ck mist ising again!"


    Several hundred miners got out of the mine and ran away from it in pure terror. Everyone was


    panicking as they rushed to a safer ce.Property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Unfortunately, some of them were not able to get out quickly. Almost a dozen miners were left behind.


    Soon enough, the ck mist gained in on them and devoured them quickly.


    "Aaaaargh! Help! Please, help us!" the miners screamed desperately.


    Within a second, they all turned into a pool of blood. The rusty stench of the blood diffused in the air


    immediately.


    Upon hearing their shrill cries and screams, the other miners sped up in different directions. They all


    sprinted to save their lives.


    Austin pretended to be as scared as the other miners and dashed forward with them. He did that to


    blend with the miners so that the elders would not spot him among the crowd.


    At the sight of the chaos, the three elders, seven stewards, and a few hundred principal disciples from


    the Rudimentary Holy Land activated their bodily movement skills to flee from that mine.


    As they sensed the tremendous power radiating from the ck mist, they all hurried to distance


    themselves away from it as much as they could. Even the three elders wanted to evade it.


    When they were far enough from that mine, they all paused and scanned around. "All of you,e


    over here," an elder of the Rudimentary Holy Land called to the mine workers.


    As he waved his sleeve, all the workers who had been in the mine with Austin were dragged towards


    him. An invisible power tugged all of them in an instant.


    "Tell me what happened under the mine. Tell me every bit of it and leave nothing behind," the elder


    demanded with a glum expression.


    He gazed intently at the miners in front of him as he waited for them to respond.


    What he initially thought as a valuable mine ended up killing a lot of his workers. Instead of finding


    some precious crystals, what weed them was a dangerous threat. No wonder he was upset.


    Most of the workers were still in shock as they stared nkly at the elder. Some of them were too


    scared of speaking up, so they kept their mouths shut. After a few seconds of dead silence, several


    articte miners mustered up some courage and volunteered to exin everything to him. They


    stepped forward and reported what they had seen to the elder.


    "What? You saw creatures sealed in the special ruling crystal mine?"


    The three elders and the seven stewards of the Rudimentary Holy Land furrowed their eyebrows


    immediately as they heard the miners exin.


    "We even met such an ominous thing.


    It seems like we did find a perilous mine," one of the three elders from the Rudimentary Holy Land said


    with a frown.


    The three of them exchanged nces at one another. Shock was evident in their eyes.


    They all thought carefully about the situation. Nobody made a move as they quietly analyzed what they


    had to do next. A few momentster, one of the elders broke the dead silence.


    ""But you know what? I once heard from Elder Jared that some remarkably strong ancient creatures


    were somehow locked up in the crystals. Some of them are even still alive.


    If we can manage to bring these ancient creatures back and dissect them, we might be able to have


    more discoveries.


    Perhaps, we can even get some powerful weapons or magic treasures from them," he said excitedly.


    He could not hide the thrill he felt as he thought of the discoveries and treasures that they might take


    advantage of.


    "You have a good point.


    Maybe this perilous mine is just a challenge for us. Perhaps, it could also be a good thing for us,"


    another elder followed.


    The three elders cheered up, as the hope blossomed in their chests. There was a keen look in their


    eyes as they thought of the great things that they could get from this unfortunate situation.


    The elders talked freely without any concern in front of the miners. Since they were just low-born


    posed no threat to their ns.


    What they did not know was that someone among the crowd was listening intently to their


    conversation. Austin heard them clearly, and what they said thrilled him.


    ''So those creatures sealed in the crystals lived during the ancient times, '' he thought to himself.
