Chapter 1707 Creatures From Ancient Times (Part Two)
Since he was inside the mine too, he had witnessed the sealed creatures firsthand; the body parts of
the demonic monkey, for instance.
After giving it careful thought, one of the elders decided what they would do next.
"When the ck mist dissipates, let''s go inside that mine," an elder proposed.
The two elders agreed to the n. They all patiently waited for the mist to dissipate. After four hours,
the ck misting from the mine hadpletely vanished.
The three elders of the Rudimentary Holy Land prepared to go down the mine. When they were about
to enter the hole, loud growls echoed in the sky. They halted because of that familiar sound.
Momentster, they spotted a group of beast riders that were headed towards them. The roars of the
beast continued to rattle the sky.
Armored soldiers rode the monstrous beasts as they held golden spears in their hands.
"What are the people from the Vasteras Holy Land doing here?" one of the elders of the Rudimentary
Holy Land asked with raised eyebrows.
Those people were uninvited, and obviously they were up to no good. Now, they had to deal with these
beast riders first. The excitement that was once evident on the elders'' faces was immediately reced
with the gloom.
In just a blink, the hordended in front of them. Two elders wearing golden robes took a few steps
forward. As they walked, golden lights glinted from them. They unleashed their spiritual senses to
check out each of the mines. After a short while, one of the elders in the golden robeughed out loud.
"I knew it! Something is definitely going on with this ce. Yuri, observe these mines and tell me what''s
inside them," he ordered to the man wearing a white robe.
"I got it, Elder Ivan," the man replied obediently as he took a step forward.
He closed his eyes and began examining the ce. He was murmuring incoherent words as his fingers
moved continuously.
"Elder Ivan, I saw a light that onlyes from special crystals. I think there are a lot of special ruling
crystal mines in here," he said after a while.
"Special ruling crystal mines!" Elder Ivan echoed as his face lit up.
The elder was thrilled as if he just found his long lost treasure.
Upon hearing this, one of the elders from the Rudimentary Holy Land got angry. Their unwanted guests

seemed to be interested in their mines.
"Why did you bring your men here, Elder Ivan? We have been exploring this area for a while. I hope
you can stay out of this and leave right now," he said sternly as he took a step forward.
Conflicts among the holynds or prominent ns often took ce because of mines. Scenarios of
Sometimes, small-scale fights broke out. It was almost expected since everybody wanted to get a taste
of the riches from the mines.
"Ha-ha! Elder Jordan, you are forgetful, aren''t you?
Well, let me remind you. We havee to an agreement that if any of us discovers a new mine, we
need to fill in the people from other sects about it immediately before starting the mining. That way,
other sects are not allowed to meddle with that imed area.
Tell me, have you officially informed us of this ce?
I bet you haven''t even started digging yet. Or perhaps, you are not sure if there is any crystal under the
ground.
How can you say that these are your mines? That is just so ridiculous!" Elder Ivan from the Vasteras
Holy Land retorted loudly.
He had a smug look on his face as he finished speaking.
The elders from the Rudimentary Holy Land were speechless. They knew that Elder Ivan was right.
Elder Jordan snorted angrily in defeat. Everyone seemed tense as they red at each other.
Just before another heated argument broke out, loud noises rumbled from the sky.
A dragon-shaped warship turned up above them. All of them knew whom the warship belonged to.
The people on board were from the Arcane Holy Land.
"Ha-ha! Hello, everyone! You must have smelled the wealth too. I did not expect to see both of you
here," a white-haired old man greeted. He got off the warship and floated mid-air.
Following suit, several middle-aged men and a few hundred disciples from the Arcane Holy Land got
out of the ship and tailed behind their elder.
"To be honest with all of you, we had spotted this ce just a couple of months ago.
We didn''t expect you to take action so quickly,"
the white-haired elder bellowed loudly.
"Elder Kit, let''s cut to the chase.
We all spotted this mining site. No one can get this area alone," Elder Ivan from the Vasteras Holy Land
responded in a stern tone.
He had a grim expression on his face upon seeing more peoplee and fight for the crystals.
All of a sudden, Elder Jordan from the Rudimentary Holy Land burst intoughter.
"Take your time. Why are you so eager to get this ce? Maybe these mines are perilous mines. Who
knows?" he chimed in.
"What did you mean by that, Elder Jordan?" Elder Ivan of the Vasteras Holy Land asked with a frown.
Curious to what Jordan had meant, he and Elder Kit from the Arcane Holy Land became alert.
As they spent years after years in the Northern Mine District, they had already be experts about
these mines. They knew what these perilous mines could do.
Elder Jordan knew that he could no longer drive these people away from the mines. He was also aware
that they could not upy this area alone.
Elder Jordan had no other choice but to tell them everything that happened in the mine.
"So something horrible is going on in this area. Perhaps these mines are those perilous mines," Elder
Kit said as they finished talking.
He and Elder Ivan exchanged looks that glinted with fear.
