Asura Emperor Venerable

"What are you thinking? You're not planning to rob me, are you?" Woo Yueyi asked.

Shi Hao shrugged helplessly, "I would if I could, but you have too many deadly weapons. Just the Talismanic Soldiers made by an Immortal King would utterly obliterate me."

So, if you didn't have those things, you'd really want to rob me?

I am so beautiful and charming, and you only want my money?

Thinking of this, Woo Yueyi's face suddenly turned red.

Oh no, why does she always think in the wrong direction?

She quickly shook her head to regain her composure, casually saying, "You're rushing over here, not for the mineral core's contents, are you?"

Shi Hao smiled slightly, "I'm in need of a weapon."

He looked down on Bronze-level Immortal Artifacts, because with his combat power, he could almost instantly defeat any Copper Armored Immortal, and when he gains more cultivation, even Bronze Immortal Artifacts wouldn't increase his combat power.

Moreover, he wasn't used to the Immortal Artifacts made by others, so he wanted to get straight to the point, and forge his weapon directly with high-grade Immortal Gold.

As for Immortal King Gold, of course, that would be ideal.

Woo Yueyi pondered, she aimed for the mineral core too, actually, because of the possible existence of Immortal King Gold.

No matter how high the quality of an Immortal Stone Mine, it can only ever give birth to one piece of Immortal King Gold, this is an ancient and unchanging fact.

So even if there is Immortal King Gold here, it can go to only one person.

For Immortal King Gold, people will risk everything, even a Jade Immortal would go mad for it, causing endless slaughter.

The most logical thing for Woo Yueyi would be to use a Talismanic Soldier and instantly kill Shi Hao.

However, she didn't have the slightest intention to do that.

"Let's go have a look first," she nodded.

What if there's no King's Gold at all, then why cause a conflict?

The two walked side by side, each employing their movement techniques, moving at incredible speed.

Shi Hao had the Little Star Universe, so he could move this fast, but how was Woo Yueyi able to be so quick?

"You really are something, running so fast even here," he commented with great admiration.

Woo Yueyi merely chuckled, feeling that she should be the one making such a comment.

She could run this fast because she had a treasure given by an Immortal King, but what about him? He's not an heir of an Immortal King, so how could he keep pace with her?

Forget it, better not praise him, otherwise, this guy will get even more arrogant.

"Do you know where this place is?" Shi Hao couldn't help but ask.

Woo Yueyi frowned slightly, seeming unwilling to answer this question.

"When you first came, I noticed your expression was very serious," Shi Hao added.

Woo Yueyi was slightly surprised, you even noticed that?

She pondered a bit before saying, "This is the Summit of the Stars!"

Pff!

Shi Hao immediately spluttered, isn't the Summit of the Stars supposed to be high in the sky? How is it down on the ground instead?

"Are you sure this is the Summit of the Stars, and not the Bottom of Earth?" Shi Hao joked.

Woo Yueyi shook her head, "The Heavenspan Tower is only found at the Summit of the Stars, so this must be the Summit of the Stars, it's just... fallen from the sky."

Even the Summit of the Stars falls?

Is it because the Immortal King who resided there transcended?

"The Heavenspan Tower... is that the black giant tower from before?" Shi Hao asked, "What is it for?"

Woo Yueyi furrowed her brow again, "You don't need to know that for now."

"Hey, is it because you don't know either, but don't want to lose face in front of me, so you said that?" Shi Hao tried to provoke.

Woo Yueyi was quite straightforward, nodding, "That's right, precisely."

Is she serious?

Shi Hao couldn't tell whether Woo Yueyi was brushing him off or really didn't know.

However, the other party clearly didn't want to reveal more.

Fine, then.

Shi Hao changed the subject, "So this mineral vein might be of Immortal King grade?"

"Yes," Woo Yueyi nodded, "Only the Summit of the Stars can nurture an Immortal King grade mineral vein."

Therefore, the likelihood of Immortal King Gold appearing here increases.

No wonder this lady came straight here, she knew this was the fallen Summit of the Stars and came first to find the mineral vein hoping to get the Immortal King Gold.

"We're kind of friends, and friends shouldn't be hostile," Shi Hao smiled, "How about this, if there's Immortal King Gold here, whoever finds it first gets it, what do you think?"

Woo Yueyi immediately rolled her eyes, you think I don't know you possess the ability to identify Raw Stones?

Are you trying to trick me?

But she just smiled lightly, "Alright!"

Shi Hao initially said it jokingly, just teasing a bit, didn't expect Woo Yueyi to actually agree.

"Could she really be falling for me?" he muttered.

"What did you say?" Woo Yueyi raised her brows, clearly annoyed, yet she was still beautiful.

"I said the weather is nice today, beneath the flowers and moonlight, perfect for a date," Shi Hao randomly remarked.

Woo Yueyi wasn't seriously pursuing the matter, this guy had verbally taken advantage many times before, if she truly got angry, she would have exploded long ago.

The two chatted on and off along the way and soon reached the end of the mine pit.

This was the end of the mine pit, but it didn't mean it was the end of the mineral vein, because the pit was man-made, whether it had truly reached the vein's end was unknown.

"Immortal King-grade mineral veins are vast, this is only about a third of the way in," Woo Yueyi explained.

This meant quite a distance to the center of the vein, and in this huge mineral vein, there was only a small piece of Immortal King Gold, how could they find it easily?

When an Immortal King was present, they could simply dig slowly, definitely eventually finding the Immortal King Gold.

But with only Shi Hao and Woo Yueyi here, how long would it take to find it?

No wonder she agreed so swiftly before.

Shi Hao tried digging forward, but encountered strong resistance.

The Immortal Stone Mine was filled with Immortal-level rules, although subtle they were incredibly formidable, especially beyond Silver Spirit rules, if Shi Hao forcefully tugged them, his fingers could be sliced off.

That's why a Stone Dissolving Knife was needed.

He could advance, and not slowly, but to excavate an entire large area was truly a pipe dream.

What to do?

Shi Hao looked at Woo Yueyi, "Do you have any effective methods?"

Woo Yueyi shook her head, "This is an Immortal King-grade mineral vein, only an Immortal King's intervention would speed up the process."

"Unless—" she paused, "an Immortal King unleashes their full strength to completely destroy this mineral vein, then naturally what remains would only be Immortal King Gold."

This was an inelegant method, yet extremely effective.

Shi Hao could only smile bitterly, as if he could invite an Immortal King to intervene.

Does this mean they have to dig bit by bit?

Aside from the time it would take, by then Mirror Lake Country would surely have intervened, taking over the vein.

No, no, no, this is the fallen Summit of the Stars, even if Hongwu King doesn't act, Mirror Lake Country alone cannot consume it, by then it will definitely trigger a scramble among the Jade Immortal-level forces.

Thus, obtaining the Immortal King Gold is the only chance.
