The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 2178

'Well, that doesn't matter. Whatever the cost, I have to get it!

If I could get just some more crystal ore that has latent time energy, then I can hatch the egg, '

Austin thought.

Since the egg already absorbed quite a large batch of time crystals in the Fallen Immortal World, numerous cracks could now be seen on its surface. It just needed that one final push now.

Some of the cracks were already as wide as a finger.

Austin could now tell that given enough energy, the egg would hatch shortly. But getting that final push wasn't going to be easy.

However, once the egg was hatched, Austin could then fulfill the promise he had made to the soul of the infinity beast on the Nonuple Isles in the Prime Martial World. That was a promise he intended to keep no matter how hard he had to try.

"Haven't the elders arrived yet?"

"Not yet. Though I've heard that the reclusive elders, along with our clan leaders, are tracking the whereabouts of some young prick. I think they will be here in a few days."

A voice reached his ears from far away.

Though the conversation was happening several miles away, Austin's spiritual sense was powerful enough to pick it up.

Further concentration revealed that it was a discussion between among the warriors of the Zhao Clan who were guarding the mineral mine.

Since the mine was located deep underground, therefore, these warriors were animatedly speaking to their hearts' content. They were sure that no one could be listening in on them, not in this godforsaken place.

"What?!

I mean the guy's just an arrogant brat. Why would the clan leader and the elders handle him personally?"

one of them remarked in disbelief.

"Beats me. From what I've heard, any child of the clan would have sufficed. You know what the funny thing is? A dozen of us stay here all year round, but which one of us knows about the affairs of the clan?"

another man wondered.

"Yes, you're right. Never mind. We can ask them whenever they come here next time."

The rest nodded in agreement.

"I was surprised to see so many time energy crystals inside the mine. They are extremely rare and worth a lot more than striking oil.

You can be certain of one thing: our Zhao Clan will definitely make a big fortune,"

one of them uttered.

Crystal ores with time energy!

Austin sensed a tingle of excitement down his spine. He hadn't expected to find a way to get the crystal ores so soon. It looked like the mine was not very lightly guarded, but he would try and get in without trouble.

"Yes. I've heard that these crystals are invaluable in the market. They have very specialized usage.

They are necessary for building teleportation arrays.

And if a master wants to cultivate time energy, then these crystals will be invaluable to him or her.

This time, they've dug up a lot of crystals. So they're going to make a tremendous fortune,"

said another man.

'Yes, I am in the right place.'

Austin thought to himself, waiting quietly.

He was planning on rushing in and grabbing these crystals once the mine was opened. That way, no one would even know that he was there.

If everything went well, he would get a rather large collection of crystals for the egg.

Actually, Austin had entered the Plateau Mine District with a destructive intent. His original plan was to destroy the mining regions of the Zhao Clan and the South Marine Sect in revenge. But before that, he was going to take a portion of the output for himself.

Running into a mine that had time energy crystals was an unexpected pleasant surprise.

About a day later, his ears picked up an order.

"Open the warehouse and put these crystals in!"

A voice sounded.

Then, a middle-aged man who was emitting a very sharp aura, followed by a large number of miners, exited the mine. The workers were carrying a boatload of crystals on their back, ready to put them in the warehouse.

Every few days, a new batch of crystals were transported into the warehouse.
