C2493 Omen

This is the first time I've overturned a spirit stone mine, and this is actually the first time something like this has happened. Could it be that the heavens saw that my luck was too good and found it unbearable, and wanted to add to my suffering?

However, since this matter had occurred too suddenly and it had involved too much, he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest. Thus, together with Elder Sang, he and Elder Sang rushed back to the Little Mount Fang, wanting to see exactly what had happened to that spirit stone mine, as well as how it had turned out.

It had to be said that after the trial of the Spirit Spring Sect, Lin Bai's existence was like a pillar to both the elders, and the disciples of the two sects.

The moment Lin Bai's figure appeared in the small mountain ranges, waves of joyous cheers immediately rang out. The originally flustered and flustered disciples of the two sects let out long gasps, as if the heavy burden in their hearts had been lifted.

This was the charm of humans! Looking at her expression, Leng Ying couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Such a person, such a peaceful existence, how could she not be tempted by him? With a change in her heart, the gaze she shot towards Lin Bai's back was filled with warmth. It was a pity that Lin Bai, whose heart was burning with anxiety, didn't notice anything out of the ordinary.

As far as Lin Bai could see, although the disciples of the two sects had calmed down a little because of his arrival, the panic in their eyes had not lessened at all. From the expressions of the crowd, it was evident that the severity of the situation had exceeded Lin Bai's expectations.

"Brother Lin, I have let you down, I did not manage this properly …" When he saw Lin Bai, Tie Yuan's face immediately revealed an ashamed expression as he lowered his head in apology. Lin Bai had entrusted everything to him, and even placed all his hopes on him. This was because he trusted Lin Bai, but now, due to his negligence, he had caused such a thing, causing him to feel unable to face Lin Bai.

"Senior Tie, what are you saying? It's already righteous of you to help me. I'm sure you don't want these things to happen …" When Lin Bai saw this, he hurriedly comforted her. He then continued, "There's no time to lose. Why don't you bring me to the mine. I'll go take a look and see what's going on."

Hearing this, Tie Yuan's face darkened. Although Lin Bai did not blame him for anything, he was still very depressed in his heart. After a long sigh, he did not say anything else and led Lin Bai towards the mines.

Hiss! As he approached the mine that was in trouble, Lin Bai couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. His face was full of shock. Fifty or sixty people were lying in front of the entrance to the mine. All of their faces were ashen, and their eyes were wide open as they looked lifelessly at the sky. It was as if their souls and souls had been extracted from their bodies.

"What's going on? Didn't they say that they died in the mine? Why did they come out again? " In fear, Lin Bai sucked in a breath of cold air, turned his head and asked Tie Yuan in a low voice.

He did not understand. According to what Wu Tan said, the mines were already sealed, and only the people in the mine were in trouble. How come so many people were lying all around the mine?

"Old Tie, that's not right. Why did so many people fall again?" Not only Lin Bai, but even Elder Sang was perplexed. It had only been a day since Lin Bai left to find Lin Bai, yet such a huge incident had occurred. This truly puzzled him. Could it be that the ominous area had expanded again?

When Tie Yuan heard this, he bitterly smiled and slowly explained the whole situation to the two of them. After Zeng Tan left, in order to be wary of any changes in the cave, the Jade Artifact Elder placed many guards around the cave.

However, what he did not expect was that in one night, the disciples that he had arranged around the mines had all turned into the appearance of someone who was neither a human nor a ghost. They all quietly lost their minds.

"Brother Lin, please sense them. Although their expressions are ashen, their vitality has not disappeared yet." After explaining the cause and effect, Tie Yuan had a puzzled look on his face as he said this to Lin Bai.

When Lin Bai heard this, he immediately used his light source energy to scan through the crowd of people collapsed in front of the mining cave. He saw that it was just as Tie Yuan had said, even though these people were defeated and looked as if they had died from fear, the life force within them did not dissipate, leaving behind a sliver of life force.

However, that life force was too subtle to be detected. That was why Lin Bai didn't immediately sense it. He only thought that these people were dead.

Not only that, under the gaze of Lin Baizhao's source energy, he also discovered that there were strands of grey mist that were constantly seeping out of the cave. Although they were quite far away, he could still feel the demonic aura from within.

"I've really seen a ghost …" Under such circumstances, Lin Bai furrowed his brows as he sighed in his heart. He could not understand why the people outside the mine could still keep their lives even though dozens of people had died in the mine. Was it because of the demon inside the mine that did not want to kill them all, or was it because of its limited power?

"I have a premonition that the unlucky fate of the mine this time around will be extraordinary. It will far exceed our imagination …" Looking at Lin Bai's expression, Tie Yuan sighed softly. There were many ominous legends related to the vein of Spirit Masters. However, the strange situation before their eyes was not recorded. It was clear how strange and unusual it was this time.

"Regardless of whether it is an ominous event or human, for the time being, don't let anyone near the mine." Then, he looked around at the surrounding disciples of the two sects and said in a deep voice, "When the change occurred in the mine tunnel, someone stood out in the mine for me. I need to ask you something."

As the sound of his voice faded, dozens of people immediately stepped forward. However, their faces were filled with an uncontrollable panic. Looking at these people, Lin Bai asked in a deep voice: "What did you see in the mine?"

"I didn't see anything. I only heard someone screaming in the very front. Then I saw the blood and Qi on those people rapidly drying up, and then we ran out." Hearing Lin Bai's question, the dozens of disciples immediately revealed fear on their faces as they slowly spoke. Their faces were filled with terror as if they had yet to awaken from their shock from the mine tunnel.

As the sound of his voice faded, another person added, "Fortunately, we ran fast. Otherwise, we would have lost our lives."

When Lin Bai heard this, he frowned slightly. This matter of spirit stones was very important, and was related to whether or not he would be able to successfully enter the Celestial Realm through the five-colored altar. Now that something like this happened in the cave and people were so worried about him, if he didn't deal with it properly and didn't solve this mystery and find a way to solve it, then it would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens.

The gray fog rose continuously along the entrance of the cave. It looked extremely demonic, causing one's hair to stand on end.

"Could we have disturbed some ominous existence? Is it because of this ominous thing that everything has become like this?" In his panic, someone couldn't help but murmur, "Should we leave this place? The Spirit Spring Sect is already gone, so even if we don't take the Spirit Stone lode, it won't affect us much."

The moment this was said, the participants immediately began to gather together. Destroying the Spirit Spring Sect was already an extremely difficult thing to do, and the harvest this time around was even more extraordinary. They were truly unwilling to do so because the unlucky atmosphere within the mine interfered with their peaceful life.

"What nonsense are you spouting? What's so ominous about it? With Fellow Daoist Lin here, is there a need for you to worry about these things?" "Just you wait. If anyone dares to say something like that again, I will punish them severely!" The moment he said this, the jade ornament and Elder Zhi Tan, who were well aware of the existence of the spirit stone vein and were of great significance to Lin Bai, immediately frowned and shouted angrily.

The moment the two of them finished their angry shouts, the entire arena returned to silence. However, the two of them were clear that although their words were blocking the disciples' mouths, it was unable to stop their hearts. As long as they could not solve the problem of the Spirit Stone lode, their hearts would not be at peace. If they kept targeting them with high pressure, it would only be counterproductive.

In fact, not to mention these disciples, even the two of them felt a bit sad because of this ominous thing. If not for Lin Bai's deep friendship, they would not have been able to repay him and would have had to think of a way out.

"Everyone, no need to worry. As long as I am here, regardless of whether it is an ominous event or someone is deliberately doing it, I will not dare to approach you!" Lin Bai was very clear that he had to show his unyielding attitude and absolute confidence. Only in this way would he be able to calm the hearts of others, as well as boost the fighting spirit of these people.

Even though the mine was strange, Lin Bai had previously demonstrated the power of a slain immortal. The words that came out of his mouth were naturally words of authority compared to Elder Sang Tan and the jade artifact elder. After he said these words, the crowd in the arena went into an uproar, even though there was still fear and unease in their eyes, no one talked about leaving this place.

Seeing this, Zeng Tan and the jade artifact elder let out a sigh of relief. They were truly a bit worried. If they were unable to control the situation and the number of disciples started to increase, but if they kept stopping them, it would give those who were interested the opportunity to do so.

Fortunately, Lin Bai was still present in the end, which was why the situation had yet to reach its end. Although the problem in front of them had been resolved, their hearts were still heavy. They knew that even if Lin Bai's existence was able to boost their morale for the time being, the danger of the mine was unfathomable. However, was it really that easy to resolve?
