The cavern inside the mountain was extremely huge. Although Xie Feng was expecting something similar after seeing the size of the mountain from the outside, he still couldn't help but be surprised in secret.

He walked around in the dark for twenty full minutes, turning several ways and turning several times but still there was no sign of an end.

The only reason he continued to walk without hesitation is because there were only two paths. One of those paths was on his back, to go back where he came from. The other path was in front of him, leading him to an unknown destination.

If it weren't for that, he would have thought he was lost in this cave.

"Damn, when will this be over? This smell is getting stronger and stronger, it really is uncomfortable". Complained Xie Feng.

Another reason why he continued to walk in his footsteps is because the smell of rot became stronger and stronger for every meter he walked.

Although he complained, his steps never wavered and his gaze was so sharp and indifferent that he didn't seem to be uncomfortable with the smell. Even he didn't understand the reason, but he always had a high capacity to adapt to the environment in which he found himself.

When he was poor, he adapted to hunger and cold. When Xie Yao's family adopted him, he adapted to parties and high society events while also learning etiquette and noble behavior.

He never had a problem adapting to any situation and acting accordingly.

After walking for another ten minutes, Xie Feng clearly felt his body pass through a membrane or barrier of darkness.

The world in front of him became slightly lighter after being illuminated by some red stones embedded in the walls of the cave.

[Blood Jadeite (Advanced Mineral): After bathing in the blood of countless people, what was once a normal jade stone was transformed into a blood jade. Extraction conditions: Occupation Lifestyle Miner Advanced level].

At first, Xie Feng was surprised and excited when he saw the name of the mineral. Earlier, while still in Eminentis City he heard several female players talking about jewelry and learned that a normal jade has a terrifying value of 10 gold coins. A Blood Jade like this would certainly sell for a much higher price.

According to currency exchange information given by the World Central Bank, one gold coin was equivalent to 100 Chinese Yuan in the real world. That means that a normal Jade was worth 1000 Yuan!

However, just by a quick glance, Xie Feng could count several hundred Blood Jades embedded in the wall. This is equivalent to tens of thousands of yuan or even hundreds of thousands depending on the value of the Blood Jade!

But when he saw the requirement for extraction of the mineral, Xie Feng's expression turned black as the bottom of a pot.

Advanced Level Miner.

At level ten, players who choose the profession Miner's Lifestyle, start as a beginner. To advance from beginner to intermediate players must mine for months!

Advanced? That would take at least 2 years!

Of course, there are scrolls of profession experience, but obtaining those scrolls is as difficult as obtaining a hidden profession.

Even while he felt uncomfortable about seeing a fortune in front of him, Xie Feng marked the place on the map in case he decided to do something with this mineral in the future.

Although it is probable that the great guilds of China will find it when the average level of the players goes up and they begin to go deeper into the Adastreia Continent and fierce battles for this mine break out.

Xie Feng continued to walk and the more he advanced, the more Blood Jade he saw. At this point, the count was several thousand.

In other words, millions of yuan!

"How could businessmen not be interested in this world? This is crazy... A poor person would become rich overnight with this mineal".

He could not help but smile bitterly as he saw a fortune in front of his eyes but could not take it with him.

***

As he walked and lamented inside, a gust of wind came from the front. Without hesitating even for a second, Xie Feng jumped aside immediately.

*Bang!*

A magic bulet hit the place where he was standing just now.

Xie Feng looked forward quickly and saw several monsters of two different types walking towards him.

[Skeleton soldier with sword and shield]

Level 24

[HP: 2300]

[Description: An undead monster who loves battle. In the past it was a soldier. After its death its soul continues to burn with passion and desire to fight to protect, it will fight relentlessly against intruders.]

(Skills):

[Undead Body: Has 70% resistance to death type attacks]

[Triple attack: Use the sword in its hand to attack the enemy three times. The attacks cause respectively 70%, 60% and 50% of the normal damage. Frequency of use: High.]

[Shield Rush: Uses the shield in its hand to hit the enemy and causes 80% physical damage.]

Behind the Skeleton Soldiers with Shield and Sword were some silhouettes with black tunics covering their bodies and a wooden stick in their bony hands.

[Undead Skeleton Magician]

[Level 21]

[HP: 1300]

[Description: Undead monster with strong magic attack and healing abilities but weak defense and resistance]

(Skills):

[Undead Body: Has 70% resistance to death-type attacks]

[Elemental Death Ball: Uses death energy and condenses it into an energy ball to attack a target 20 feet away. Cast: 2 seconds]

[Undead Healing: Heals all the surrounding undead by 400 HP. It is launched when the HP of the allies falls below 20%. Cool down: 5 seconds]

Monsters above level 20.... and two different types of monsters!

Monsters that are higher than level twenty, even if it's only one level difference, are completely different from monsters that are between level ten and twenty. Not only do their stats become much higher, they also gain more attack and defensive skills.

In total there were 3 undead mages and 5 skeleton soldiers with shield and sword.

Xie Feng's eyes settled on the corridor and he noticed that even though the corridor was wide enough, there was no space for him to go through with 8 monsters blocking his way.

Therefore, his attention was immediately drawn to the three undead mages. With this undead healing spell, it was no doubt that if he wanted to take care of these undead monsters, he had to take care of killing the three undead skeleton mages first.

The 5 skeletons with shield and sword advanced towards him and unlike the skeletons outside the cave, the movement of these skeletons was uniform, like that of real soldiers of war.

Even before the battle began, Xie Feng was already feeling a strong headache.

Eliminating unnecessary thoughts, he immediately activated Tornado.

*Sou!*

The wind blew towards the skeleton soldiers with shield and sword. However, Xie Feng was surprised when the skeletons set the shield in front of their bodies and were attacked head-on.

Although Skeletons with Sword and Shield were constantly pushed back by the wind of the tornado, they still kept their fixed posture without hesitation.

The Tornado began to spin and because of the giant shield it could not hit the magicians behind it. No doubt this type of scenario was extremely unfavorable for Xie Feng.

But that's not all -

-561.... -562.... -558.... -561.... -557

-556.... -562.... -560.... -562.... -559

-562.... -561.... -557.... -556.... -561

After the three seconds passed, the Tornado disappeared. But the monsters were still standing!

Due to the 10 level difference and the high defense provided by the giant shield, the damage normally caused was reduced by half!

As if that wasn't enough, the three mages in the back raised their wooden sticks at the same time.

*Whoosh!*

A black fog enveloped the 5 skeleton soldiers with shield and sword and the next second, a scene that made Xie Feng want to curse all the gods, happened.

+400 HP

+400 HP

+400 HP

In fact, the 3 undead magicians healed the 5 skeleton soldiers with shield and sword at the same time. In total, the amount of health recovered by the monsters that Xie Feng had just attacked was 1200 points!

Xie Feng's Tornado had caused a little over 1600 damage, however now, the HP of the skeleton soldiers was .....

[Skeleton Soldier with Shield and Sword]

Level: 24

[HP: 1521/2000]

1521 health points! Although the difference between the five was a few points, one or two points of HP more or less did not change anything in this situation.

If there is one thing that Xie Feng is happy about, it is that with his Tornado skill he can nullify the magical ability of the 3 undead mages. Otherwise, he would have no choice but to retreat.

What's more, these are just normal monsters! Not even one of them is a BOSS type monster!

This is the clear difference between levels. Even if Xie Feng is strong and can fight higher level monsters, even for him there are clear limits.

The eight monsters in front of him are definitely his limit. If there were even one more undead mage, then he could not win without being overwhelmed by what.

For the first time since leaving the Beginner's Village, Xie Feng found monsters that could give him a headache and a real challenge.

Xie Feng's blood burned to the core and his eyes were full of battle intent. He was sure that these monsters will be defeated by him soon, but what excited him while scared him a little, was what he will find deep inside this cave!

But before thinking about it, he must overcome the obstacle in front of him!
