C2494 Ore Entry

"I want to enter the mine to have a look. I want to see the so-called ominous thing inside. What exactly is it?"

Just as everyone was feeling anxious, Lin Bai suddenly spoke without any warning. Upon hearing this, the expressions of the crowd all changed. They stared at Lin Bai in disbelief, as if they couldn't believe what he had just said.

"You can't!" Without waiting for Lin Bai to finish speaking, Zeng Tan and the jade artifact Elder simultaneously shouted out at the same time to stop him.

Lin Bai entered the cave. What kind of joke was this?! Who was Lin Bai? He was everyone's pillar of support. Only with him here would they be able to hold their ground and not have any thoughts of retreating. However, the current situation in the mines was unclear. What exactly was the so-called ominous thing and what kind of method it had, no one knew.

If Lin Bai could break through all of this, then that would be fine. But if something happened to Lin Baiwan, then who would be in control of the entire situation then? With just the seeds of the sandalwood and jade artifact, how could they win the hearts of the people?

It was likely that once there was a change, the disciples of the Sword Pavilion and Medicine Valley, who had just been twisted into a bunch of hemp ropes, would panic in fear and quickly leave. When that happened, there would definitely be people with ill intentions who would take the opportunity to create trouble. When that time came, it would be too late for regret. Given this situation, how could the two of them allow Lin Bai to risk his life?

They even suspected that with Lin Bai's intellect, how could he have done something so irrational.

"Brother Lin, this matter must be planned slowly. You must not let it slip through your fingers." Not only them, but Tie Yuan also consoled Lin Bai, "If you really care, it will not be too late to enter the mining cave when the situation is clearer."

"Senior Iron, do you think that if I don't enter the mine, I'll be able to find out what's going on inside?" When Lin Bai heard this, he could not help but burst into laughter. He shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "Don't worry, I will be careful. Nothing will happen to me."

Without an investigation, there would be no right to speak! Under the influence of the two elders, Lin Bai also treated these words as the most important words of wisdom. Moreover, he was even working hard to verify these words of wisdom, and no matter what, he would always be at the front line.

It was not that he didn't understand the concerns of Zang Tan and the jade artifact elder, but it wasn't that he didn't understand how urgent the situation would become if there were any mishaps. However, he was even more clear that these people who had escaped from the mines were simply unable to understand the specific situation inside the mines. Only an on-the-spot investigation would understand why all this was happening.

Although this was a helpless action, it was the best way to solve the problem. Even if there was a risk, he had no choice but to do so.

After the sandalwood and jade artifact heard this, they looked at each other and then softly sighed. In fact, after they spoke out to stop Lin Bai, they had also thought of the reason why Lin Bai would do such an irrational action. Moreover, it was just as Lin Bai had said, only by personally witnessing it and personally observing it could they truly understand everything.

But what if there really was an accident? Who could bear the responsibility?

"Fellow Jademaster and I will go down. I think with the strength of the two of us, we should be able to guarantee that there will be no problems. And with Fellow Daoist Lin overseeing us in the outside world, even if something bad happens to us, we won't be able to do anything about it." After hesitating for a long time, Elder Seng Tan slowly made a decision in her heart. She decided to replace Lin Bai with Elder Sai and entered the mine.

When the jade artifact elder heard this, he also nodded his head slightly and said in a deep voice, "Dao Friend Zu Tan's words are correct. I think the two of us should go to the mines to take a look. If there really is a risk, we won't lose control of the situation."

"This junior truly appreciates the high righteousness of these two seniors." But if you go down there, you're still not as steady as I am. " He smiled gratefully and rejected the two's good intentions, saying, "If you want to clarify the situation, the best way is to enter the realm of confusion. Only by doing so can you see everything more clearly. I hope the two seniors do not obstruct me."

His words were resolute and decisive, making it impossible for others to hear what he had said. Seeing this, Zeng Tan and the Jade Artifact Elder pondered for a while, then looked at each other and said: "If you really insist on doing so, then let us two accompany you. This way, even if something happens, the three of us can take care of it and not let the situation get out of hand."

Although the words of these two elders were tactful, their meaning was incomparably resolute. If they were to investigate further, that would mean, "Lin Bai, you can go down, but if you bring us along, even if we really meet some trouble, we two old bones might not have much ability, but we can still block the spear for you."

This sort of friendship was something that even a stone-hearted person couldn't help but be moved by.

However, the two of them were very old and the reason for excavating the spirit stone vein was to help them. Now that such an ominous event had occurred, how could Lin Bai make them make such a sacrifice? He immediately said, "This cannot happen, once I enter the mine, the situation will become uneasy. I know you two seniors have good intentions, but if you two have any respect for this humble one, stay outside and wait for my news! "

Although the words were spoken in a gentle tone, they carried a tone that could not be doubted. Slike Tan and the jade artifact elder immediately understood that Lin Bai had already made up his mind. No matter how they tried to stop him, it was impossible to change Lin Bai's mind.

"It's fine if that's the case, but Brother Lin, you must be careful. If something is amiss, you must leave the mines as soon as possible. You must not force your way through." After a moment of silence, seeing Lin Bai's unstoppable desire, the duo finally gave up and solemnly advised.

Right after the two of them finished speaking, Leng Ying, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke up behind Lin Bai. With a resolute tone, she spoke word by word, "I will enter the cave with Master!"

"No!" Stay up there and wait for me! " When Lin Bai heard this, his brows immediately furrowed as he rejected Leng Zhan. He had no idea what would happen if he entered the cave by himself, but it could be said that he was risking his own life to get into the tiger's den. If he brought Leng Zhan along, what would he do if something bad happened?

Master, even if you want to take it, you have to take it with you, even if you don't! I have already decided! " He looked straight at Lin Bai, and said word by word, "I am Master's and my life is also Master's. If Master does not bring me along, if you do not come out of the mine, I will immediately commit suicide here!"

Who else is mine and whose life is mine? Wasn't this meant to make others misunderstand? Upon hearing Leng Zhan Yan's words, Lin Bai's face turned red. However, he was a little perplexed. Even though Leng Zhan Yan had been extremely stubborn in the past, she had not reached such an unyielding stage. Furthermore, from what he saw and the attitude of this little girl, it seemed that she really knew how to do such a thing.

He didn't know what would happen if he entered the mine. If he was delayed there, this little girl wouldn't be able to get news of him. Under the burning heat of the moment, she really took out her knife and tried to kill herself.

"Fine, then just follow me." After a bitter smile, Lin Bai knew in his heart that this was the same as planting sandalwood and the jade artifact elder's treatment of him. He also knew that he had no possibility of obstructing this female disciple and could only agree to her request.

Upon hearing Lin Bai's words, Leng Yanyan heaved a sigh of relief. She even took a few steps forward, getting closer to Lin Bai. It was as though she was afraid that Lin Bai would abandon her.

"Brat Lin, I will follow you in …" At this time, the Patriarch of the Yin and Water Beast also slowly spoke. He said with a serious expression, "I am a soul simulacrum, invisible and intangible. Even if there is something amiss in the process, it shouldn't disturb me."

Previously, under Lin Bai's arrangements, the ancestor of the Yin, Water, Beast, and Innate Qi had stayed to trick and trick people who coveted the Spirit Stone lode. Now that the Spirit Spring Sect had fallen, there was no need for the forefathers of the Yin and Water Beast to hide. Hence, they appeared right in front of everyone.

Furthermore, it also had a need for spirit stones. Thus, after Lin Bai said these words, it wanted to travel together with him. Upon hearing the words of the forefather, a peculiar expression immediately appeared in Lin Bai's eyes. After a moment of thought, he slowly nodded his head and agreed.

"You must be careful. The danger of the mine is not something that we can predict. If anything bad happens, you must return as soon as possible. Do not act rashly." Seeing that they were all confident and unable to stop him, Tie Yuan sighed lightly and warned Lin Bai in a low voice, his eyes filled with worry.

Although the current situation was not because of Tie Yuan, it was still because of his negligence. He was truly worried. Not only did he not help Lin Bai, he even put Lin Bai in danger. What could have happened to him …

"Elder Iron, the fact that you're able to help me is already a matter of deep love and righteousness. Please don't say such words anymore." Don't worry, I'll be fine. Even immortals can't stop me, let alone a mine! " When Lin Bai heard this, he chuckled and comforted Tie Yuan. Then, he cupped his hands towards Zhu Tan and the jade artifact elder and said in a deep voice, "Two elders, take charge of the overall situation. Wait for my good news!"

With that said, Lin Bai did not hesitate any longer. He waved his hand and led Leng Yanyan and the forefather of the Yin and Water Beast to the mines.

However, as soon as they entered the cave, the sky darkened. Although the cave was small, it didn't feel uncomfortable. Because of the spirit energy released by the sand, it made people feel that the atmosphere was very good.

However, after taking a few more steps forward, with the help of the flashing spiritual sand, he was able to clearly see the scene in front of him. Even though Lin Bai was very bold, he could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.
