The Greatest Village Doctor In The World

Chapter 1564 - 1563: Deep Underground

After dawn, Ling Feng and Li Fei’er got up and, after washing up, teleported back to the Nine Heavens.

The two then went their separate ways. Ling Feng headed straight to Longyuan, without looking for Zhang He, and went directly to find Ye Qian.

When she saw him coming, Ye Qian smiled like a flower: "Brother Ling, why have you come?"

"I came to ask for your help. Come with me to see Zhang He." Ling Feng said.

"Sure!"

Ye Qian didn’t hesitate and nodded readily.

Upon reaching Zhang He’s office, Ling Feng got straight to the point and reiterated the matter concerning dealing with the Leader of the Tongtian Sect.

After listening, Zhang He knew it was important, so he didn’t make any jokes and nodded seriously: "Alright, let Ye Qian accompany you down below, but be sure to stay safe. Based on our calculations, there’s only twelve hours left before the earthquake occurs."

"I understand, I’ll definitely make it back in time. Even if I can’t, we can teleport back. No need to worry!" Ling Feng reassured with a nod.

After that, he and Ye Qian headed directly to the basement.

The first time Ling Feng came here, there was only one floor. Now, four levels had been excavated.

Entering the elevator and seeing the number buttons, Ling Feng shook his head with a wry smile: "There’s four more levels, and I only found out now!"

"Brother Ling has been too busy!"

Ye Qian chuckled, then pressed the button marked with the letter E.

Seeing this, Ling Feng asked, "What level is this?"

"It’s the lowest level, leading to the underground world." Ye Qian replied.

"I see!"

Ling Feng suddenly understood and then felt the elevator begin to descend. He asked further, "How deep is it below?"

"Five hundred meters." Ye Qian said.

"Uh..."

Ling Feng was left speechless.

He didn’t know how many times he’d come to Longyuan, and yet, so silently, such a depth had been excavated and they even installed an elevator!

He didn’t know what words to use to describe it, but he could only think, amazing!

The elevator continued descending, taking almost ten minutes before it came to a slow stop.

"Brother Ling, it’s a bit warm down there. Prepare yourself."

Ye Qian said as the elevator doors opened.

What met their eyes was rock walls, with a narrow passage appearing before them.

At the same time, a wave of heat rushed towards them.

Ling Feng knew that due to the underground pressure, the temperature would be higher, but still bearable by the human body.

After stepping out of the elevator, the two of them passed through the narrow passage and then entered a huge underground space.

Unexpectedly, it wasn’t pitch black inside; there was plenty of light, and there were countless twinkling spots on the vast ceiling overhead.

"This is the underground people’s world. They have their own technology, utilizing geothermal energy, and have developed many new technologies." Ye Qian explained.

Ling Feng nodded and then asked, "Where is the place full of evil energy?"

"This way."

Ye Qian took out a tablet, looked at it, then pointed ahead.

The two walked side by side, quickly leaving the lit area and stepping onto a very narrow rocky road.

"According to the records, this was where the underground people mined, but after discovering the concentrated evil energy, it was abandoned. No one has been here for hundreds of years." Ye Qian narrated as they walked.

Ling Feng nodded: "Understandable, it seems they couldn’t bear the evil energy either."

"Indeed."

Ye Qian checked the tablet again and said, "We need to walk dozens of kilometers to reach the core area. Brother Ling, be careful underfoot!"

"You should be the one to be more careful. Stop looking at the tablet, follow me!"

Ling Feng said, taking her hand and leading the way.

The further they walked, the narrower the passage became, and the more intense the heat felt.

As they walked, Ling Feng laughed: "Luckily I’m not claustrophobic, or I really wouldn’t be able to stand this environment."

Ye Qian nodded: "If you weren’t aware, it might be better. Knowing this is hundreds of meters underground, most people wouldn’t be able to stay here long."

The two chatted as they walked, alleviating their emotions, and continued on for over two hours.

Seeing they were only halfway there, Ling Feng asked: "At this pace, we can’t stay there long. Do you think we’ll have enough time?"

"Plenty, I only need an hour to set up the formation, but you’ll only have thirty seconds. I worry you might not get the Crystal Stone." Ye Qian said.

"That short?"

Ling Feng was taken aback, then said, "I’ll just have to do my best!"

"Yes, the evil energy is too strong, I can’t sustain the formation for long. Brother Ling, do your best." Ye Qian encouraged.

They pressed on, the pathway ahead was rugged and narrow, some sections could only allow one person through, which delayed them some more.

When they finally emerged into a more spacious area, they both felt a thick evil energy rush toward them!

Being cultivators, reliant on Spiritual Energy, which directly opposes evil energy, they were much more sensitive to such things than the average person.

Taking a deep breath, Ling Feng turned to Ye Qian: "How are you feeling now?"

"I’m fine!"

Ye Qian smiled, then said: "Don’t worry about me. Not far ahead is where the Evil Qi Crystal is concentrated. Let’s hurry!"

"Alright!"

Estimating that they already spent five hours, Ling Feng nodded and quickened his pace, holding her hand.

A short distance ahead was a towering stone wall, several dozen meters high, shimmering like a mirror, reflecting their images under some unknown dim light source in the space.

"Brother Ling, the thing is behind the stone wall. I need to start setting up!"

Ye Qian said and began pulling out tools from her Space Bracelet.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Ling Feng said, staring intently at the stone wall, while feeling the intense evil energy, he was also filled with great curiosity about the origin here.

If it congregated naturally, this place was astonishingly wondrous.

What caused the evil energy to gather here?

Was it by nature’s masterpiece, or human intervention?

As these thoughts swirled, Ye Qian was busy, with fine beads of sweat dotting her forehead and tip of her nose.

As each second ticked away, almost an hour passed when she suddenly looked up: "Brother Ling, it’s ready!"

"Great!"

Ling Feng nodded, seeing her pale complexion, and asked: "Are you sure you’re okay? When I open a crack, a huge surge of evil energy will flood out, can you handle it?"

"I can manage, the formation will block it for thirty seconds!" Ye Qian reassured with a faint smile.
