Chapter 1599 The Grey Slate Ravines

A red blur traveled across the Blood Strewn plans, almost melding in with the rest of the topography.

This was none other than Little Shrubby and Lin Mu.

They had left their temporary base several days ago and had been traveling nonstop since then. Unlike the first Immortal Stone mine, the second one that Huangyu Shiyi had already been to was very far.

According to the map that Lin Mu had obtained, the mine was located in the Grey Slate Ravines and the prince had been killing people there before. He had done that to prevent anyone from coming there, and also be afraid to meet him.

It was safe to say, his intentions had really worked and there was barely anyone that dared to enter that location now.

Even if the prince had already left it, the others didn't know that. To them, as long as the prince wasn't officially seen leaving the Desolate Blood Battlefield, it would be the same as him being there and waiting for them.

No one wanted to take the chances and would rather just avoid the place instead.

The prince's attempt at intimidation was now working in Lin Mu's favor as he would now be free to go there and not worry about others noticing it.

'Unlike the first mine, this one is also a lot more accessible.' Lin Mu noted.

The first mine was locate over two kilometers deep in the ground. And this was on top of being masked by the baleful energies that were condensed on top of it. Even for a strong immortal, it would have been very difficult to sense the mine.

And even if they did, they would still have a hard time reaching it.

But in the case of the second mine it was a bit different.

While it was also hidden underground, the way to access it was different. Its entrance was located at the side of a ravine that were plenty in the Grey Slate ravines. These ravines were of varying depths, with some that went over a kilometer deep into the ground too.

Thus if someone flew over these ravines, they wouldn't be able to sense anything. But if they directly descended into them and then searched, they might have a chance at finding something.

But with how large and expansive the Grey Slate Ravines were, on top of being dangerous, the chances of finding the Immortal Stone mine were further reduced. If it were not for the man, Lin Mu would have been unable to find it too.

After days of travel, they finally entered the border of the Grey Slate Ravines.

From where on, the color of the landscape changed once more.

From its earlier b.l.o.o.d.y red color, it had switched to a lifeless grey color with splotches and fragments of red mixed in it.

The Grey Slate ravines were mostly comped of slate stones, as its name implied. Though this was no normal slate, but Deep Bowel Slate. It was said that a slate of this kind was highly compressed in the bowels of the earth before rising up to the surface.

There were rumors that the Grey Slate Ravines used to be covered with rolling plains once upon a time on which abundant rivers flowed. But over time, the plains were eroded away and the Slate under it was revealed.

Of course, this discovery led to the utilization of the material, and further excavation was done. As the years pa.s.sed, this process continued, and it eventually turned into a Slate land. But then, when the Desolate Blood Battlefield was formed, this land was left alone.

After many topographical changes, the land shifted and cracked before turning into the ravines of today.

"This is certainly quite vast. I can see why the Immortal Stone mine had been left undiscovered for so long." Lin Mu said while gazing at the hundreds of ravines that spread beyond the horizon.

~SHUA~

The figure of the Saintess also appeared next to him, having followed him directly this time.

"It is indeed a peculiar land. I haven't seen many like it… at least not those that are made from this kind of stone." The Saintess spoke before turning to Lin Mu. "So where exactly is this Immortal Stone mine?" she asked.

"Let me check the map again." Lin Mu took out the map and looked for the reference points that were given on the map. "Looks like we need to fly high up to see the structures first." He said.

"I'll take us up." Little Shrubby leaped directly to a kilometer's height and continued to rise higher.

By the time they reached a sufficient height, they found the Saintess already waiting for them. Her speed wasn't something that even Little Shrubby could match as of now. Not to mention she could use Dao insights directly and had profound skills that Lin Mu didn't know about much.

"We now need to see the patterns that the ravines form below." Lin Mu said and looked below.

The vast ravines formed an interconnected network that took various shapes. Most of these were simply random, but they were still unique enough for one to figure out what was where.

After a couple of minutes of observation, Lin Mu finally figured out the location that was on the map.

"There it is… that part." Lin Mu pointed in a certain direction. "We just need to follow according to these patterns." He spoke.

The Saintess gave a nod and disappeared once more, intending to reach the first.

Lin Mu and Little Shrubby too flew in the direction and reached it after a few minutes. They continued to pause and check the map from time to time, and about six hours later, they had finally reached their destination.

"It's certainly hard to find this without a map." If it weren't for the diagrams drawn in the map matching the shape of the ravines, one might get lost easily.

"But at least we are here now." Lin Mu got Little Shrubby to descend into a particular ravine that was in the shape of a gourd.
