Feeling the man inside leaving, Ye Li knew that the time had come. He had no other choice at this point. If he could not enter the hill, he would definitely be discovered by the people from the Tianhun Society.
With a sudden force on his feet, Ye Li rushed out from the hill like a civet cat.
The two people outside the pit had no idea that someone was attacking them. It was not until Ye Li's figure appeared in front of them that they realized someone was approaching.
However, it was too late to raise a warning. Ye Li's speed was extremely fast. He slapped the two men on the top of their heads in an instant. A huge force was transmitted into their heads. The powerful force instantly destroyed their brains.
The two men's thoughts of calling for help were cut off forever before they could even send out a message. The two guards died very quickly.
Ye Li casually supported the two men who were about to fall down, and two streams of water-based spiritual energy gathered in his body, and then passed from his palms into the bodies of the two guards.
This touch of water-based spiritual energy was divided into several tiny spiritual energy groups, which gathered at various joints of the two people.
The spiritual energy did not leak out and was completely wrapped in the bodies of the two people. Although the amount of this small ball of water-based spiritual energy was small, it was of extremely high purity and also brought a burst of extremely cold power.
The power of extreme cold instantly froze the blood in every joint of the two men's bodies. The bodies, which were about to fall down, suddenly became stiff. Their bent knees had been frozen upright by the power of extreme cold, allowing the two bodies to maintain their original standing posture.
As the joints of the two men were frozen, the two corpses returned to the posture of standing guard when they were alive. Ye Li pushed the two men back casually, and the two men were stood directly against the wall like two brooms.
The two men's bodies were slightly leaning against the rock walls on both sides of the small mound, maintaining the appearance of standing guard. With a quick glance, there was no sign of anything abnormal about them.
After Ye Li put the body away, he quickly retreated into the cave. The big house behind him remained silent. What happened just now did not attract anyone's attention.
Ye Li flashed into the cave and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He was still a little nervous just now. Although he had sneaked into the cave many times, this time he was really scared.
Although there is no threat to life, the failure of the character is still an enormous loss for Ye Li.
After Ye Li suppressed the thoughts in his mind, he began to move towards the depths of the cave.
After entering the cave, the situation was no longer so critical, because the person who was guarding the cave by the Heavenly Soul Society was not the real caretaker. In fact, he was just responsible for sorting the ore in the cave and recording the amount of ore stored and transferred out.
This person lives in the cave. Ye Li has already seen a small hole on the wall of the cave passage in front, and that should be where the other person lives.
Ye Li moved very quietly without making any sound. The light from the crystal lamp in the cave was not very bright, and the shadow of Ye Li projected on the cave wall was also very faint, and did not look that obvious.
Passing through the cave like a ghost, Ye Li soon came to the small hole in front, from which he could hear a burst of even breathing sounds.
Judging from the breathing sound, there was only one person inside, and it was the one who had just been talking to the two pit guards outside.
Ye Li's figure was as fast as lightning, and he jumped into the cave in an instant. The person inside was sitting cross-legged on the stone bed with his eyes closed to rest, and did not notice Ye Li coming in at all.
It was not until he felt a breeze blowing in front of him that he reluctantly opened his eyes.
The man was stunned the moment he saw Ye Li, but before he could react, Ye Li's palm had already been placed on the top of his head.
A huge force poured into the other person's brain, as if the flesh of a watermelon had been crushed, and his head had turned into a pot of sauce.
Another person died instantly, and Ye Li's heart soon calmed down. It seemed that all the guards here had been cleared out.
All he had to do was get away from here before the two bodies were discovered at the door.
After Ye Li came out of the small cave, he hurriedly walked deeper into the cave. Not long after he walked away, a huge cave hall appeared in front of him.
The cave hall was filled with wooden boxes, each of which was half a person's height. Ye Li knew that these boxes must be filled with ore.
As long as the ore is smelted, it can be purified into pure soul crystal. He doesn't know if there are pure soul crystals stored here. If there are pure soul crystals stored here, it will definitely be much better than taking away the ore.
Ye Li walked quickly to the wooden box, and then opened the boxes in front of him one by one. He found that what was inside were indeed just ordinary ores that had not been smelted yet.
Unwilling to give up, Ye Li searched around and found that the boxes in the cave seemed to be filled with unpurified ores.
Just when he was feeling disappointed, Ye Li's eyes vaguely swept to the cave wall not far away. There seemed to be a passage in a place covered by a rock.
"Hey, there's a hidden cave!!!"
Ye Li suddenly perked up, and with a little step on the ground, he came to a cave covered by rocks.
Sure enough, after observing from a closer distance, Ye Li discovered that the rock on the cave wall was indeed just a cover, and it looked like a stone door.
And behind the rock, there is a cave, and inside the cave there is a hidden space.
Things that can be hidden in the hidden space must be more valuable than the minerals outside. Ye Li had a vague answer in his mind.
"Could it be the refined spirit crystal?!"
Ye Li couldn't help but mutter to himself.
If they were all refined soul crystals, then the amount he took away at one time would not be small.
After all, it takes a large pile of ore to smelt a small piece of Soul Crystal. It is definitely more cost-effective to directly take away boxes of Soul Crystals than to take away ore from outside.
Ye Li couldn't help but put his hand on the stone. The stone seemed to be loose and could be pushed open at once. Excited, Ye Li couldn't control himself for a moment and pushed hard suddenly. Sure enough, the stone was pushed aside by his huge force.
There is actually a guide rail hidden under the stone, and the stone is indeed a stone gate.
At the moment when Ye Li forcibly pushed open the stone door, the spiritual energy in the cave surged wildly, a warning formation was triggered, fire rose along with lightning, and the sound of explosions came from the cave and spread to the outside of the cave.
Ye Li's expression suddenly changed, and he cursed: "Damn it, I'm such an idiot, why am I so careless!!!"
He regretted very much. He was so excited that he didn't check the stone door beforehand and pushed it open. Who would have thought that it would trigger the warning formation? (To be continued)
