Chapter 34: Returning to Sunrise High School

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the mystic mine.

Chen Feng got up from the ground and brushed off the dust on his body. Next, he stretched lazily.

Although he looked like he had a hard time, there was a satisfied smile on his face.

After four to five days, he finally cleared out the mine.

One might think that all he had to do was absorb the dark elements in the energy ores and fight dire beasts.

However, the truth was far from that. It was not as easy as it seemed.

That was because there were 10 spatial rifts in the mine!

What did that imply?

That meant that sometimes, Chen Feng had just finished dealing with a dire beast that had crawled out from the spatial rift. He had only just started to absorb the dark energy when another dire beast crawled out

There was even once when dire beasts emerged from three spatial rifts at the same time!

Among the three dire beasts, one of them was a superior-grade tier 3 dire beast that had condensed an inner core. Chen Feng had spent a lot of effort to deal with it.

These spatial rifts were scattered in every corner of the mine.

Thus, Chen Feng spent four to five days dealing with all of the spatial rifts.

In fact, a quarter of his time was spent running around in the mine.

After all, absorbing the dark elements in the energy ore was no different from cultivation.

If he used Shadow Escape to travel back, it would certainly reduce the upper limit that he could increase.

Chen Feng’s heart ached even if it was only reduced by 10 points.

That was why the mission was delayed for so long.

Looking at the piles of dire beasts’ corpses, Chen Feng sighed helplessly.

He would leave the cleaning of the corpses to the others. It was not a wise choice to continue lingering here.

He put on the Biological Radar Detection Mask and carefully scanned every direction of the mine.

After confirming that no one was nearby, Chen Feng began his journey back to Sunrise High School.

A day passed, and it was late at night again.

By then, Chen Feng had already returned to his dormitory in a low-key manner.

Only now, did he have the time to carefully calculate the number of spoils of war he had obtained this time.

First, he killed the four men of the Black Dragon Gang, including Liu Yong.

Chen Feng was only awarded 400 points for each of Liu Yong’s lackeys.

Liu Yong’s death awarded him 800 points!

In total, it was exactly 2,000 points, making up for the points he had spent purchasing the Biological Radar Detection Mask.

As for the miners, they did not provide any points. Chen Feng did not even get 100 points for their deaths.

In addition to the points obtained from completing the mission, he had already gotten 12,150 points.

It could be considered a small burst of wealth.

Chen Feng only planned to use these points only if he urgently needed them.

After all, if he could save more points before using them, it would be more cost-effective. He wanted to buy more expensive but stronger items. There was no need for him to be overly anxious to spend the points.

These were his gains from the system.

His cultivation gains were not small either.

After a careful calculation, Chen Feng had already sorted everything out.

He had more than 30,000 yuan in cash.

Twelve inner cores of tier 2 dire beasts.

Three inner cores of tier 3 dire beast.

More than 100 energy ores!

If he decided to sell these energy ores, they could be sold for a high price of 10,000 yuan for each!

However, each energy ore only provided 100 points of dark elements, and it could only increase the upper limit by about 1 point.

Despite that, the advantage of energy ores was that its energy would not depreciate!

By absorbing these ores, Chen Feng could increase his dark elements’ upper limits by over 100 points.

Even though Chen Feng’s strength had increased greatly, if he were to absorb these energy ores, he could also increase the dark elements’ upper limit by more than 100 points!

If his own safety was not affected, it seemed to be a wiser choice if he stored these energy ores for use some other time!

Chen Feng decided to store the energy ores.

After all, he was in Sunrise High School, so he would not encounter any kind of danger.

Following that, Chen Feng consumed all the inner cores and began his arduous and boring cultivation journey.

A week later.

Ten kilometers away from the Mystic Realm mine.

A large group of more than 100 people was split into three minibusses.

This group of people were students from the University of Draupcester.

All the students were in groups of 10. Each group was led by two third-year seniors.

The rest were either students from year one or year two.

The purpose of their trip was to clear the mystic mine, something that the University of Draupcester did once every month.

Along the way, the year one and year two students were very excited. They either leaned against the car window to look at the scene outside or chatted non-stop with the other students.

The third-year seniors did not stop them. Instead, they looked at these lively juniors with gratification, as if they were looking at themselves from a year or two ago.

At this moment, an extroverted junior with a spiky hairstyle approached the captain of this operation, Li Yunhua.

“Hua, I have something that I wanted to ask since earlier, and I can’t hold back the question anymore!”

Li Yunhua smiled helplessly and gently hit his junior’s head.

“I told you to call me Captain during the operation.”

After saying that, he added, “What do you want to ask?”

The man with a spiky hairstyle chuckled and rubbed his head.

“Captain, the question I want to ask is actually very simple.”

“Why does the University of Draupcester have to spend so much effort every month to go to the mystic mine to clean up dire beasts?”

“Why don’t we destroy the spatial rift in the mine once and for all?”

Everyone’s curiosity was piqued when they heard that spiky-haired boy’s words. All of the students turned to look at them.

Obviously, that was also the question on everyone’s minds.

Seeing that his juniors were so curious, Li Yunhua smiled.

“That’s a good question,” he said.

“Then let me ask you a question. What do you think needs to be done to destroy a spatial rift?”

When the spiky-haired boy heard this, he looked at his senior with a smirk. He thought Li Yunhua wanted to test him.

He quickly answered, “Obviously, we need to absorb the energy ores first.”

“Once there’s no energy, the spatial rift won’t be able to support the passageway that connects the two worlds. That way, the dire beasts won’t appear.”

Hearing this, Li Yunhua nodded and smiled, pleased with his answer. However, Li Yunhua smiled and asked again.

“In your opinion, how much time would it take to absorb energy ores that can support a spatial rift?”

This time, the spiky-haired boy was slightly stunned.

Then he did a mental calculation before answering, “I think… it’d need at least a month.”

“Oh?” Li Yunhua’s eyes were filled with surprise as he asked, “Why do you think it’s a month?”
