Chapter 1415
"Little Tower, wake up, I need to talk to you."
"Oh dear, what's wrong now? You've only been sleeping for a little while," Xiaota said, somewhat displeased.
"Wow, a mid-grade Immortal-level Nine Dragons Sea-Suppressing Formation? Not bad!" After the little tower awoke, it immediately used its divine sense to see the massive formation that blotted out the sky and covered the area in the distance.
"Can you help me sneak in without alerting the array spirit?" Chen Xuan asked worriedly.
"Hmph, you underestimate me too much!" the little tower said unhappily. "I can easily pass through a Grand Array of Immortal King level, let alone an Immortal level one?"
"Thank you, Little Tower. Now that this is over, I'll let you get a good night's sleep," Chen Xuan said happily.
"Row."
Then he saw the small tower appear and cover the light shield of the great formation. Chen Xuan immediately saw that the light shield in the area covered by the small tower disappeared, revealing the scene inside.
"What are we waiting for?" Little Tower urged.
"Thank you." Seeing that the Immortal Rank Formation had a gap, Chen Xuan transformed into a stream of light and went straight in.
Compared to the lack of spiritual energy on the outside continent, the spiritual energy inside the great formation is abundant. Of course, the biggest difference is that there are countless huge and deep mine pits on the ground here.
"Hurry up, don't slack off! This month, everyone gets a thousand catties of source stones. Whoever fails to meet their quota is doomed!"

Having concealed himself and flown for less than a mile, Chen Xuan saw a dense, long line of people beginning to appear below. These sallow-faced, emaciated mortals, carrying large baskets on their backs, were being monitored and urged on by the Xiantian and Pifu realm cultivators from various mountain peaks.
After glancing at the cultivator below who was holding a vine whip, and noticing that the totem on his clothes was not from the Nalan clan, Chen Xuan continued to venture deeper.
"It seems that each of the three hundred, five hundred, or one thousand mines is guarded by tribes of different ranks?" Chen Xuan frowned. "The young man in the light blue robe just now seemed to be from the Beishan clan."
"A thousand mines? Then the Nalan family must be of that scale as well."
Chen Xuan frowned and pondered, "Judging from the cultivators guarding the mines at various levels that we encountered along the way, and based on the previous boasts of the Nalan clan's Earth Immortal that they had formed an ancient alliance with the Xuanxiao royal family and the Beishan clan to advance and retreat together."
"In this way, when the world was divided up, the Nalan clan should have received the same treatment as the Beishan clan."
Chen Xuan flew rapidly into the depths. Because he was within the range of the Immortal Rank Formation, he dared not use the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth directly, fearing that he would be detected by the True Spirit. Moreover, he was unsure how many Void Returning Realm cultivators were guarding the formation.
Although Chen Xuan was confident, he was not blinded by it.
Among the three thousand royal cities and tribes, there are countless high-ranking cultivators. Their cultivation resources mostly come from the mining areas. The local produce can be said to be the foundation of the major feudal lords, and all the major feudal lords have stationed heavy troops there.
For an unknown period of time, Chen Xuan kept his divine sense extending outwards for a radius of four thousand miles, carefully probing the area. As soon as he discovered that there was no trace of Nalan's clothing, totem, or aura below, he immediately withdrew his senses.
Suddenly, his divine sense swept across the desolate mountains and forests below and saw a boy desperately fleeing towards the wilderness outside the mining area. His figure was faint, but his aura was vaguely familiar.
Chen Xuan calculated with his fingers, and was both surprised and overjoyed. He immediately swooped down and landed in the forest, blocking the boy's path.
"How is that possible? How did you discover I was running away?"
The boy wore a tattered leather robe, his face was sallow, and he was clearly malnourished. He had prepared for this escape for a long time, but he never expected that even with such secrecy, he would still be discovered by the Nalan clan cultivators.
His face turned ashen, then his eyes went mad as he pulled a rusty mining shovel from behind his back and swung it recklessly.
"Even if I die, I will not be a mine slave!" The boy's eyes were bloodshot, and his face was contorted with rage as he charged toward Chen Xuan.
This scene made Chen Xuan's heart ache. Logically speaking, given the influence of Long Xia in his previous life, these young men in their early twenties should all know him.
But at this moment, this tribesman was incredibly frenzied, only wanting to fight to the death. Just how much had he been exploited?
