They looked at the mysterious creature in the crystal ball.

Everyone’s eyes were filled with shock.

How could they not be shocked to find a creature at the core of the legendary Netherworld? Moreover, it looked like it was still alive!

Suddenly, Yu could not help but mutter.

“This… Could this be that Spirit King?”

Right after that, everyone was silent.

They looked at Yu in unison.

Yu smiled awkwardly.

“I was just guessing.”

At that moment, Chu Feng suddenly took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, “Perhaps… you’re right.”

“The Heart of the Netherworld that possesses vast power, the solidified spiritual substance, the huge spiritual spring that can give birth to spiritual bodies, the powerful but imprisoned Ancient Spirit Body, and the bewitching will of the Spirit King…”

“All of this shows how extraordinary this place is!”

“It’s said that the Spirit King has yet to recover from his serious injuries and has been sleeping to recuperate. If the rumors are true, where is the most likely place for the Spirit King to sleep? Where can there be such endless vast energy for him to heal?”

“And this might be the true core of the River of the Netherworld…”

Chu Feng’s voice echoed in everyone’s ears.

After a pause, Chu Feng raised his head and glanced at the amber creature in the crystal ball. He suddenly took a deep breath and said in a low voice, “Fortunately, he doesn’t seem to have woken up yet. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have been able to escape at all.”

“Right now, there are two important things for us. Firstly, find a way out! Secondly, collect spiritual substances and bring them back to revive the Heavenly Tree King!”

As he spoke, Chu Feng looked at Mo Tianji.

“Do you see the pitch-black holes in the surrounding rock walls?”

Mo Tianji nodded.

Chu Feng continued, “I guess that’s the passageway that connects the entire Heart of the Netherworld. It’s impossible for the Spirit King to wait for that illusory spatial teleportation when entering and exiting. Therefore, there should be a way out here! Your mission is to find an escape route!”

Mo Tianji’s expression froze.

This was clearly an extremely huge project. If he were to calculate the holes one by one, how long would it take? Even if it was just a rough divination, it would definitely take a lot of effort.

Perhaps he would take a few wrong turns.

But Mo Tianji also knew that no one else could do this job except him.

He could only smile bitterly and nod.

“But I can only do it as quickly as possible. I can’t be sure how long it will take. The success rate can’t be guaranteed…”

Yu pursed his lips.

“Old Mo, are you reliable or not?”

Mo Tianji was immediately furious.

“Every divination consumes my essence, energy, and even the spirituality of my innate supernatural power! Do you think just putting a few sticks there is enough?!”

“Why don’t you do it?!”

Yu immediately smiled awkwardly.

“I was just kidding. There are specialists in every field. Old Mo, you’re the professional!”

Chu Feng grinned.

Wasn’t Yu asking for trouble? He had to be scolded to behave. He was just cheap!

Chu Feng could not be bothered with these things.

These guys were used to mocking and teasing each other, so no one took it to heart.

Then, he looked at the others and said, “Everyone else, follow me to collect spiritual substances. I wonder how much more the Heavenly Tree King needs. In short, the more the better.”

Everyone obeyed.

Chu Feng instructed again.

“You must be gentle! Don’t…”

Before he could finish speaking, everyone knew what Chu Feng meant.

Everyone subconsciously glanced at the creature in the crystal ball and could not help but shudder.

If this person was awakened, they would be dead!

“Let’s go!”

Everyone stepped into the air and rushed towards the top of the cave.

There were thousands of “stalactites” condensed from spiritual matter!

Any one of them would probably have tens of thousands of points of spiritual substances.

Everyone was also very excited.

Like a harvest, all of them rubbed their palms together, planning to get more back.

The reward from the Great Emperor’s City would definitely not be little!

But at the next moment…

Everyone was dumbfounded.

These spike-like stalactites seemed to have been embedded in this cave. They could not be shaken at all.

Even if Li Peng and the other Heaven Martial Realm experts used all their strength, they could not break a single one!

Fortunately, with the full-strength efforts of top-notch quasi-gods like Yu, they could manage to make some cracks. They could slowly grind them and break them.

But this way, there was a problem.

The sound and shock could not be concealed!

These stalactites were directly connected to the cave. Every bombardment made the entire cave tremble slightly.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

What should they do?

If they did this, would they wake up the creature in the crystal ball?

Chu Feng frowned.

However, he could not give up on the spiritual substance.

Otherwise, if the Heavenly Tree King could not recover, everything they had done in the early stages would be for nothing!

A deep breath.

Chu Feng first took out the Demon Slayer and carefully slashed at the stalactite. He tried his best to control the strength and reduce the vibration.

Of course, even so, Chu Feng’s attack was not weaker than Yu and the others.

He slashed a crack in the three-meter-long stalactite in front of him.

Immediately after, Chu Feng looked at the creature in the crystal ball.

Seeing that the creature sitting cross-legged was still with its eyes closed as if it could not sense anything, he heaved a sigh of relief.

It was as if this guy had fallen into a deep sleep.

If there was no danger that could threaten its life, it would not wake up easily.

Of course, this was only Chu Feng’s guess. He could only comfort himself like this.

He instructed everyone, “Try to be as gentle as possible and end this quickly!”

Seeing Chu Feng’s demonstration, the crowd understood what they should do.

Yu and the other top-notch quasi-gods were powerful and had chosen large stalactites, although it was not easy to completely cut one off, once they succeeded, the gains would be huge!

As for weaker quasi-gods like Liu Xian’er, their targets were those small figures.

The chances of success were much higher.

Furthermore, if they accumulated the little things, the gains would definitely be considerable.

The worst were Li Peng and the others who were not even quasi-gods.

They did not have the ability to move these stones at all. They could only run around bitterly and receive some milky white liquid dripping from the stone tips. It could be considered a harvest.

As for Chu Feng, he was powerful and harvested much faster than the others.

If he really went all out, he could even cut through a stalactite with one slash.

However, because he was afraid of causing too much commotion, he could only suppress himself as much as possible.

Of course, even so, his harvesting speed was still the fastest.

The seconds ticked by.

Chu Feng and the others’ gains increased.

In such a short period of time, Chu Feng estimated that his gains alone would be millions of points of spiritual substances!

This was a rather terrifying number!

Just as Chu Feng and the others were working hard, they did not notice that the finger of the creature in the crystal ball seemed to tremble imperceptibly…
