631 Heaven Demon Pit
Qin Chen and the others seemed to have survived.
That terrifying expert brought them away and escorted them to a city thousands of miles away.
There were many humans there, as well as many enslaved fierce beasts.
Qin Chen and the others increasingly felt that something was wrong because the strength of these living beings here was a little too strong. Most of them were actually on par with them!
It had simply exceeded the scope of their expectations.
One had to know that having cultivated till now, Qin Chen and the others had already surpassed countless people.
Currently, they had been sent to a certain place.
From what the middle-aged man said, it seemed that he was going to send them to a certain place to mine.
They had never thought that they would be enslaved to mine one day.
However, their strength had yet to recover and was still suppressed. They could only try their best to preserve their strength by obeying first and mining.
The big scorpion had been displeased along the way. If they were in the outside world, these guys would have died long ago.
This was because these guys were very unfriendly to the demon, the big scorpion, along the way. It seemed that they wanted to use him as a mount.
This made the big scorpion even angrier, but he could not resist.
Before the other party did anything that threatened his life, he would definitely not make a move.
After all, if he resisted, he might lose his life. He knew that he had no choice but to lower his head since he was in the other party’s territory.
Moreover, this was the enemy’s base camp.
“There seems to be something wrong here. They seem like survivors from the ancient era,” The flame-wing beast spoke with a wary expression.
“Survivors from the ancient era?”
Qin Chen had never heard of this before. In his opinion, these people were just some humans hiding here.
It was only because they had adapted to the environment that they were slightly stronger.
As for why their cultivation could be on par with Qin Chen and the others, it was very likely that they had encountered some incredible opportunities in this spatial zone. The natural divine items had resulted in their cultivations.
“These survivors of the ancient era might very well be the descendants of an ancient great emperor who once hid here. After the ancient emperor left, they were perhaps chased by some enemies and had no choice but to hide. As such, it’s possible that these guys are survivors of the ancient era.”
Hearing this, Qin Chen couldn’t help but feel surprised. To think these fellows were the descendants of an ancient great emperor. No matter how he looked at it, they didn’t seem like it.
But now, he didn’t have the leisure to think about something else. They had already been escorted to a place where no one was around.
There were many corpses here. They looked like they had just died, but their bodies had already festered.
Black smoke was flowing out of the wounds on the corpses.
There was a huge crater in front of Qin Chen and the others, and from time to time, faint screams could be heard from the deep pit.
Under the gaze of Qin Chen and the others, a hunchbacked old man with a cloudy gaze walked up with a huge crystal on his back. He didn’t dare to escape or do anything else because countless experts were around him, firmly trapping him.
As long as he made a move, he would be killed immediately.
The crystal that the old man carried was black. Within the black stone was a chaotic gas that Qin Chen could not see through. It seemed to be wrapped around something.
“See, that’s the things you have to mine. It’s called the nether stone. And this is the Heaven Demon Pit. Don’t think about running away, because if you do, I can guarantee you that in the next second, none of you will be left alive.”
Upon hearing this, Qin Chen and the others were angry, but they didn’t dare to show it. They could only remain silent.
Seeing their current state, the expert who brought them here nodded and continued, “Let me give you a piece of advice. Be careful of the appearance of monsters. Beneath the Heaven Demon Pit, there is a terrifying monster. Many people have already died because of it. Still, judging from your strength, it’s probably difficult for you to survive for even ten days.”
In the eyes of the expert, Qin Chen and the others didn’t seem to be too powerful, making them unworthy of his attention.
As long as they entered the Heaven Demon Pit, they would likely be ambushed and killed by those monsters.
It was not that these people had not sent experts to encircle and suppress those monsters, but unfortunately, those monsters were very cunning.
In the end, they hadn’t killed a single monster. Many experts died instead.
That was why they sent people with great sins to mine.
When Qin Chen and the others saw this scene, they didn’t know what to say.
They had already carefully observed these corpses.
The remaining aura on these corpses was extremely terrifying. It seemed that they were in trouble.
However, there was nothing they could do. In the eyes of these experts, they had no other value. They could only be sent to mine.
Outsiders like Qin Chen and the others had all been sent here, and those outsiders had long died.
Qin Chen and the others realized that things were getting more and more complicated. If they entered the Heaven Demon Pit, they might really lose their lives.
After all, this terrifying aura could not be faked.
Still, under the watchful eyes of the experts, they had no choice but to enter the Heaven Demon Pit.
They were clueless as to know why the Heaven Demon Pit was formed. However, they could sense that the nether stone seemed to be highly valuable to these humans.
Following this, Qin Chen and the others entered the Heaven Demon Pit.
Feeling the aura in the Heaven Demon Pit, Qin Chen couldn’t help but frown.
What they saw in the Heaven Demon Pit were piles of bones. Who knew how many humans had died?
With so many humans dead, it was obvious that this place was not safe at all.
Qin Chen and the others had just entered the Heaven Demon Pit when they felt a formless mist enter their bodies.
Even if they weren’t killed by the monsters, they probably wouldn’t be able to live for long. Clearly, this place specialized in harvesting lives.
If they didn’t have any ability, they might really die here.
At this moment, the voice of the expert from earlier sounded from above the Heaven Demon Pit.
“You must remember this. If the amount of Heaven Demon Stones that you hand over is not even ten catties per month, you will be directly suppressed below. If you dare to appear in front of us then, death will be your only end.”
