After his mental energy was strengthened, Yang Ling saw a strange image.
A stone forest was erect on the plain, the rocks of varying shapes and sizes. Some of them looked like green pines, some like a Cloud Leopard making its way downhill, some even looked like a giant dragon baring its fangs…
Through the nimble Horned Bee Beasts, Yang Ling could even see that intricate patterns had been carved onto the rocks. They faintly resembled tadpoles or even the mysterious symbols on the Wizard Amulets. After looking at them repeatedly, Yang Ling felt a sense of familiarity.
Just what are these things? Stone steles, or…?
Yang Ling was confused, unable to understand what was going on. But he could confirm that these stone steles were not a product of nature. This strange stone forest definitely hid some secrets.
The more life force he absorbed, the greater his mental energy became, and the clearer the patterns on the stone forest got. After observing it for half a day, Yang Ling became more and more confused. The patterns on the stone forest were incredibly similar to the symbols on the Wizard Amulets, just more complicated and more massive.
Could every stone be a giant Wizard Amulet that used stone as its carrier?
In his confusion, Yang Ling expanded the search radius of the Horned Bee Beasts, hoping to discover any clues. Not long after, a Horned Bee Beast discovered a giant cave in the cliff on the left. It was an immensely eerie cave.
The cave was big, and for some reason, it was releasing a Seven-colored Light. The Horned Bee Beast was unable to enter despite its best efforts, as if it had encountered a colorful layer of glass.
Could this be a unique protective barrier?
Yang Ling had wanted to closely research the Seven-colored Light, but just as he gathered all of the Horned Bee Beasts at the entrance of the cave, a low roar suddenly came from within the cave. Wherever the soundwave passed, a strange ripple appeared in the air. The snow instantly evaporated.
In that instant, a dozen Horned Bee Beasts let out pathetic wails and fell onto the ground, as if hit by the impact of the soundwave. They soon lost connection with Yang Ling.
At the same time, Yang Ling felt a rumble in his brain. He felt his head spin and an urge to retch. He could not shake the heavy feeling, almost suffocating.
After struggling to open his eyes, Yang Ling took in a breath with much effort. Perhaps it was due to his hallucinations, but the feeling of being watched that he had sensed ever since he stepped into the valley became more obvious, as if a snake was coiled nearby, staring coldly at him.
“Sir, are you alright!” Seeing Yang Ling suddenly turn pale, Argus hurried over in concern.
Waving his hand, Yang Ling tried his best to adjust the energies in his body. Some time later, he took in a deep breath and said, “Argus, release my orders: no one is to leave the formation on their own. They must not go behind the rocks!”
“Yes sir!” Seeing Yang Ling’s serious expression, Argus did not dare be careless as he turned to leave.
Just what weird secrets did the strange stone forest have?
Seeing Argus spreading his orders loudly not far away, Yang Ling’s expression became more and more serious. Merely the soundwave of a roar could kill a dozen Horned Bee Beasts and almost suffocate him; it was imaginable how powerful the monster within the cave was!
Until he understood what was truly going on, the stone forest deep within the valley was a forbidden land. Yang Ling did not wish for a person to stumble into the area and invite his own doom. Even he had suffered because of his carelessness; an ordinary barbarian or elf archer would fare even worse.
After confirming that there were no other dangers or monsters other than the one in the stone forest deep within the valley, Yang Ling once again ordered the group to set up camp in the vast area. First, it was convenient for him to scout the area around the mysterious stone forest. Second, it would also be convenient for the large scale excavation of the sulfur mine not far away.
There was a great number of stones within the valley, but unfortunately, with the lack of suitable equipment and the heavy snow, progress was slow. They had only managed to build a stone foundation after a full day’s work. Luckily, the fox elder rushed over by the second day, not only bringing with him a large group of strong Dogmen, but also many pieces of equipment.
Seeing the hordes of Giant Crab Spider corpses on the ground, then looking at the tarantulas who were undergoing a cocoon-like evolution, the Beastmen were immensely shocked. Even the experienced fox elder was no exception.
Back when they had set up a team of three hundred elites to explore the area, they had also been surrounded by a group of Giant Crab Spiders. Their team had been annihilated in less than an hour. They hadn’t expected the valley to have tens of thousands of Giant Crab Spiders, nor did they expect that Yang Ling could defend himself against the strong attacks of the Giant Crab Spiders and exterminate them instead. He sure lived up to his fame as the Wissen Leader.
Stepping on the corpses of the Giant Crab Spiders, making their way through the blood-covered snow and arriving before the giant sulfur mine, the Beastmen became dumbfounded!
They knew that there was a giant sulfur mine within the Taildon Valley, but they could never have expected the mine to be this large. Even the speedy Dogmen might not be able to circle the mine in an hour. Even more unexpected, this was a giant exposed sulfur mine, making extraction incredibly easy.
“Sir, we want fifty percent of whatever this mine produces. You can count on the Beastmen for everything from excavation to transporting the material!” The fox elder was incredibly excited when he saw the giant exposed sulfur mine.
“Elder, I fought for this with my life. I can give you ten percent at the very most!” After shaking his head, Yang Ling continued, “Sulfur still has several uses other than for nurturing Black Pulp Trees. Unfortunately, the routes from Wissen Town to the other empires are long, and the cost of transport is high. I wouldn’t earn much from this. I would be making a loss if I gave you fifty percent!”
Ten percent at most?
Despite being prepared to haggle, the fox elder was still shocked. He had not expected Yang Ling to make such a lowball offer.
