Qin Chen had a headache.

They had been inexplicably captured, brought here, and even treated as coolies.

Moreover, a mysterious aura in the Heaven Demon Pit was slowly invading their bodies.

It could be said that if they stayed down there for a long time, they would eventually be unable to hold on and die.

If they wanted to return to the surface, they could – only by paying ten catties of nether stones a month.

The nether stone was quite mysterious.

Not only Qin Chen, but the others had never seen such a thing before either.

It was probably a unique treasure in this world.

However, the price of mining nether stones was their lives. It was quite bloody. “I’m afraid it’s very difficult for anyone to survive here.”

The big scorpion was filled with grief and indignation. In the outside world, he was an existence that could become an overlord. In this place, he was just an inconspicuous young man.

At the thought of this, the big scorpion felt uncomfortable.

“Everyone, pay attention to your surroundings.”

The reason why Qin Chen spoke up now was that he felt that there seemed to be some movement.

They saw a figure slowly walking over to them. There were bronze patterns on the figure’s body. In his hand was an iron sword that looked very difficult to deal with. He looked like a ruthless character.

“You must be new! Remember, this month, you have to pay me a catty of nether stones.”

Hearing this, Qin Chen and the others understood.

This guy was probably the person who specialized in collecting nether stones in the mine.

If Qin Chen and the others were at their peak state, they would’ve been able to easily deal with this guy. However, their power was now greatly decreased, so they were simply not his match.

“If you don’t hand over enough nether stones, you can inquire about the consequences if you dare to disobey my will in my, Gu Long’s territory.”

Then, Gu Long turned around and walked away with his iron sword as if there was nothing worth taking to heart about Qin Chen and the others.

He had long heard that there would be outsiders coming recently. He did not expect to meet them.

Since he had encountered them, it was easy. In his opinion, although Qin Chen and the others’ auras weren’t weak, it was very likely that they could not unleash their full strength. In this way, he had nothing to fear.

He could easily take care of them alone.

Once outsiders entered this world, a portion of their strength would be sealed. This was also the reason why Gu Long was so unrestrained.

He had made a mistake in the past, which was why he was exiled here to mine for ten years as a punishment.

Now that a few years had passed, he had long become an old fox.

If one wanted to survive in this mine, one had to be powerful enough. Even if one could not dig up enough ores, one could rely on snatching other’s nether stones to complete the mission.

As the saying went, for one’s benefit, one could just infringe on another’s benefit.

Why would he care about the life and death of others? He only cared if the other party could hand over enough nether stones.

If the other party could not hand over the required amount, then the other party would very likely be severely injured by him. At that time, it would not be long before the other party died in the Heaven Demon Pit.

The bottom of the Heaven Demon Pit was not a place for ordinary people to come to. Many had already lost their lives here.

Gu Long was going to continue collecting other people’s nether stones.

“That guy just now is not simple. He has already reached the supreme-ruler Venerable realm. Our strength is equal. I’m afraid it’ll be difficult for us to pose a threat to him even if we work together.”

The big scorpion clenched his fists and asked, “Elder King, what should we do now? Should we kill him now?”

“It’s not rational to deal with him now. We might even suffer a loss.”

To be able to have such boldness to oppress others below, it was very obvious that Gu Long had more than one person backing him. If they offended the other laborers in the Heaven Demon Pit, they might very well be targeted. At that time, even Qin Chen and the others would find it difficult to resist.

The most important thing now was to recover their strength.

“Don’t make a move yet. These few days, let’s gather some information and see what kind of rules the Heaven Demon Pit has,

For the next few days, Qin Chen and the others tried to mine the nether stones.

However, they didn’t know where the nether stones under the Heaven Demon Pit were, so they could only helplessly use their weapons to break the stone walls. Unfortunately, most of the time, they did not even touch a nether stone. They spent a lot of effort, but there was no result. They did not even see a small nether stone.

This was what gave Qin Chen and the others a headache.

They also saw many laborers in the Heaven Demon Pit, but most of them were natives from this space. There were almost no outsiders like Qin Chen. They had probably died long ago.

However, even if those outsiders were still alive, Qin Chen didn’t really care. After all, even if they were not dead, it was impossible for the other party to join forces with them.

Soon, Qin Chen and the others found a laborer who wasn’t too strong. They surrounded him and brought him to the side.

“There are many people who are similar to Gu Long in the Heaven Demon Pit. However, Gu Long is in charge of this area. The reason why they mingle together is that they want to plunder other people’s nether stones and use the stones to achieve their goal of becoming stronger.”

Qin Chen and the others were somewhat surprised. To think the nether stone could be used for cultivation.

“Within the nether stones are some natural treasures and other spiritual items that can be used to cultivate and become stronger. These are the resources that the people in this space rely on to cultivate.”

Qin Chen and the others were very surprised when they heard what this guy said.

As he spoke, he took out a palm-sized nether stone and shattered it.

Then, they saw a broken petal within. The broken petal emitted spiritual energy, seemingly somewhat powerful.

“Why would there be a spiritual item wrapped in the nether stone?” This was the question that puzzled Qin Chen and the others.

“supreme-ruler knows how the nether stones were formed in the Heaven Demon Pit, but they seem to have been left behind by a peerless expert from a great battle.

After the world back then shattered, these nether stones were left behind.’

After hearing this, Qin Chen finally understood the origin of the nether stone. The palm-sized nether stone was easily shattered, but the bigger the nether stone, the harder it would be to shatter. And the larger the nether stone, the more powerful the spiritual item it contained. Qin Chen and the others let the guy go.

Now, they understood a part of their situation..
