Chapter 960: Chapter 504: Fearless in the Face of Life and Death

"Crack!"

The fissure instantly enlarged, swiftly spreading into the distance.

In that moment, the entire Spirit Vein seemed to crumble like earth, breaking apart in the blink of an eye.

"It’s broken! It’s broken! The Spirit Vein is broken!"

Er Gou exclaimed excitedly.

Meanwhile, a deep rumbling sound reached Gu Sheng’s ears.

He looked up and saw the ceiling of the mine also forming eerie cracks following the rupture of the Spirit Vein.

Countless stalactites swayed, like steel blades hanging overhead.

"Oh no! It’s collapsing! Let’s go!"

Gu Sheng shouted.

Er Gou and Shi Lou heard Gu Sheng’s shout and looked up abruptly.

The scene truly felt like the sky was falling.

"Let’s go! Er Gou! Don’t just stand there!"

Shi Lou also urged.

Gu Sheng’s heart suddenly accelerated, knowing well that time was tight and action was necessary.

If they were truly crushed underground, it would be game over!

"Out!"

As Gu Sheng dashed forward, he suddenly wielded his Divine Power and summoned the small tripod within him.

"Come in!"

Gu Sheng shouted, directly pulling Er Gou and Shi Lou into the tripod.

Instantly, the three hid inside Gu Sheng’s small tripod.

"Clang, clang, clang!"

For a moment, the sound of metal clashing was incessant.

Though the space inside the tripod was cramped, the three remained unharmed.

"Brother Sheng, what... what is this thing? I’m struggling to breathe here."

Er Gou complained with some frustration.

"Bear with it! Right now, it’s the only thing that can save us."

Gu Sheng comforted.

"What do we do now? What if the mine collapses? We..."

Shi Lou said worriedly, but as he spoke, he became too scared to continue.

"Don’t be afraid, I’m here."

Gu Sheng said calmly.

These few words gave Er Gou and Shi Lou great encouragement.

"Divine Mountain bless us... Divine Mountain bless us..."

Shi Lou and Er Gou simultaneously closed their eyes, silently chanting.

Even Gu Sheng was speechless, not expecting them to still believe in their Divine Mountain at a time like this.

Yet, upon seeing their expressions, Gu Sheng seemed to grasp the meaning of the word "faith."

Perhaps faith truly has endless power!

...

Thus, the tremors continued for a short while before finally ceasing.

The three jumped out of the tripod, and Gu Sheng retracted the small tripod.

At this moment, everything before them had turned into ruins.

The mine had collapsed, and the original path was buried under rocks and soil.

"Brother Sheng! What should we do? The way we came is completely blocked!"

Er Gou shouted in panic.

"Huh? I don’t want to be trapped here."

Shi Lou also grew anxious.

They moved forward, trying to clear away the rocks and soil from the path.

But after much effort, it was in vain.

In the blink of an eye, they reached the skies above Stone Village.

Many houses were engulfed in flames, and they saw the villagers of Stone Village gathered at the gate, seemingly controlled by someone.

Gu Sheng, along with Shi Lou and Er Gou, descended from the sky.

They saw a dozen cultivators and several dozen bandits controlling the villagers of Stone Village.

These cultivators exuded powerful auras, clearly members of the Qingxia Sect.

"Who are you? Why attack Stone Village?"

Gu Sheng asked coldly as he landed.

Meanwhile, Er Gou and Shi Lou rushed into the crowd, approaching Elder Shi and Master Zhang.

"Elder, Master Zhang, what happened?"

Er Gou asked anxiously.

"Shi Lou, Er Gou, why... why have you returned?"

Master Zhang asked urgently.

"Why wouldn’t we return?"

Er Gou asked.

"They’re here for you, quickly! Escape!"

Master Zhang said, pulling Er Gou towards the back of the crowd.

But even several strong men couldn’t move Er Gou at that moment.

"Master Zhang, it’s okay. We will handle this situation."

Er Gou said, giving Shi Lou a knowing look, and walked towards Gu Sheng.

"Brother Sheng, they seem to be after us."

Er Gou said quietly.

"You guys?"

Gu Sheng seemed to understand.

At that moment, a cultivator stepped forward with a hint of mockery in his eyes: "We are from Qingxia Sect. You country bumpkins dared to offend us; today we’ll show you our power."
