Chapter 2701: Chapter 2699: The Second Loss of Holy Energy
“Can you be certain?”
Upon hearing this, Ethan Smith’s face changed drastically. He had always felt some sort of transformation occurring in his body.
Yet even with the Nine Heavens Condensing Pupil, he could not discern anything.
“This thing seems to be a dark ghostly entity. I can’t determine for sure, but there is a strong dark energy on your back at the moment. There’s no mistake about this; my perception does not err. You should feel some changes in your body yourself!”
Divine Flame of Holy Light!
A wisp of flame emerged from above Ethan Smith’s head, instantly erupting into terrifying flames over his body.
“It’s useless; it’s still there.”
Weston stared intently at Ethan Smith.
His hands were calculating something, and a layer of fine sweat appeared on the tip of his nose.
Ethan Smith’s scalp tingled slightly; from the recent confrontation, it was clear that Weston was certainly not an easy opponent.
For him to show such an expression, it seemed whatever was on Ethan’s body was truly formidable.
“This is not good, there’s a Heavenly Secrets Concealment Array laid down here! This person’s power is far beyond what we can handle. Let’s get out quickly!”
Suddenly, Weston’s body emitted a muffled sound, as if struck by a heavy object.
A mouthful of fresh blood was forcefully expelled from his mouth, and his face turned extremely grim.
A sudden deafening noise exploded beside Ethan Smith’s ear.
Following this, a sound like glass shattering echoed in his Sea of Knowledge, a sound Ethan was very familiar with.
A layer of hazy aura gently emanated from underground.
In an instant, the entire space seemed enveloped in mist.
These mists disappeared in a flash, passing through the mine shaft, dissipating right in front of Ethan Smith and Weston.
Meanwhile, above the underground, thunderous forces shuttled through the sky.
An uncountable mist in the air shadowed the entire Endless Mine Mountain.
“Who on earth has dared to steal the Holy Energy right under my nose?”
In an instant, an elder near the Endless Mine Mountain let out an enraged roar, emitting a fierce beast-like aura.
The space around seemed twisted by his violent energy, distorting the elder’s figure beyond recognition.
This person was Lord Tang, the elder stationed at the Heavenly Path Institute here.
“Lord Tang, this is not good! All entrances to the Endless Mine Mountain’s mine shafts are inaccessible! Communication points within have not transmitted any information for the past few hours, possibly implying those inside are…”
Lord Tang suddenly crushed the cup in his hand, his expression cold as ice.
“Let’s go, I want to see who dares to play tricks in the Endless Mine Mountain!”
Lord Tang stood up directly.
“Contact the Order’s Guardians and all high-level members Above the Dome. Assemble directly at the mine mountain.”
Lord Tang’s expression was extremely unpleasant. When he arrived at the Endless Mine Mountain, representatives from other factions had already arrived.
Ythran came from the Order’s Guardians, while a woman named Aurora represented Above the Dome.
Upon seeing Lord Tang, both nodded slightly.
In this Endless Mine Mountain area, Lord Tang was the strongest person stationed here.
The three major forces had dispatched personnel to guard the area, while the miners were merely minor characters.
Even the fearsome Drunken Rose here lacked the privilege to raise her head before Lord Tang.
“Have you discovered anything?”
Lord Tang asked.
“After the theft of Divine Power, none of the entrances here can be accessed. It’s as if someone set a great array here. Everyone entering has lost contact, including all the communication points below.”
Aurora’s face looked grim.
“The extraction of Holy Kingdom’s power, the collapse of order in the Endless Mine Mountain, plus the previous heavenly secrets concealment–they all seem interconnected; it can’t be just a coincidence.”
Ythran frowned.
“Damn outsiders!”
Aurora exclaimed angrily; only an outsider could perform such a feat using the Heart of the Holy Kingdom to steal Sacred Power.
“Such terrifying dark energy beneath the mine shaft, and the array aura emitted from the entrance is something I’ve never seen before! Let’s combine our forces to shatter it, collapse the great array, and then enter to uncover the truth.”
Lord Tang’s expression was icy.
The Endless Mine Mountain represents a sect matter; if problems arise here, he might as well return to the sect with his head lowered.
Divine Thunder Summon!
Lord Tang chanted incantations, waving the Dao Sword in his hand.
An awe-inspiring thunderous force poured down, striking the entrance.
Aurora’s Fire!
Aurora spewed flames from her mouth, raising the surrounding temperature by dozens of degrees upon emergence.
Ythran held the Four Seas Bottle, executing a gesture with his fingers.
Before everyone appeared an endless ocean.
“Immeasurable Ocean!”
Boom!
The ocean’s power condensed into energy, directly striking the entrance.
The three attacks landed simultaneously at the entrance.
But as they entered, not even a ripple occurred, as if they had never been unleashed.
“What!”
Lord Tang and the others all wore faces of shock.
It’s vital to know Aurora and Ythran were at the eighth level of the Path Realm, and he had reached the ninth.
With the three of their combined might, no formation should withstand such power.
“Breaking it with force seems impossible; the formation showed no ripples, indicating a limit far beyond what our combined strength can break.”
Aurora said with a bitter smile.
“Have you tried other entrances?”
Lord Tang focused, pondering for a long time, then suddenly questioned the two.
“We have attempted five mine shafts in total and found they all contained the same array aura. If we account for all the disciples entering at intervals, it’s basically certain all entrances are similarly affected.”
Ythran said.
“Order everyone to thoroughly search the Endless Mine Mountain for formation-related items. Such a large array cannot be without clues. Investigate any recently abnormal spots; even if digging three feet deep is needed, leave no stone unturned.”
Lord Tang said coldly.
All present began to work busily, and within a few hours, a message was received.
“Three esteemed ones, we found an eerie place!”
A cultivator ran over with a pale face.
“Lead the way!”

Aurora showed a joyful expression; finding the formation items could lead to the array’s destruction, and whatever hides beneath the shaft would be exposed!
When they arrived at a location, it had already been excavated.
“Everyone stationed nearby today fell ill, and even three of the third-level Path Realm individuals died. Therefore, after the three esteemed ones ordered, we excavated the area and found this strange item.”
The guiding cultivator quickly reported to the three.
Now in the excavated nearly thirty-meter site, a bizarre object floated.
