Beastmaster: I don’t want to be a breeder!

The Great Miner Slime had no choice but to select a small iron ore and mold a small iron pickaxe in its belly.

Only then did the Little Miner Slime possess its own iron pickaxe.

Li Cunxu asked, "Yiyi, did your fate points increase when the Little Miner Slime was born?"

"Sisi~ (It increased, but only a little bit.)"

Li Cunxu was very happy. The increase in fate points meant that his idea was correct.

The Little White Spider, Yiyi, mutated into a Miner Slime, and the Miner Slime gave birth to a Little Miner Slime. The wings of fate began to flutter.

Without Yiyi, there would be no Miner Slime, let alone the second-generation Miner Slime, and even less the third-generation Miner Slime.

Therefore, as the Miner Slime clan grew stronger, the fate influenced by Yiyi also increased. In this way, as long as the Miner Slimes existed in the world for a day, Yiyi would be able to continuously harvest fate points from them.

This was just one type of Slime. When Yiyi mutated other Slimes, she would have even more fate point income.

After entrusting the task of increasing the Miner Slimes to the Little White Spider, Li Cunxu went to meditate again. He was only a little bit away, just one foot short, from having his mental strength break through to Black Iron intermediate level.

Li Cunxu had a premonition that this meditation would definitely work.

Facts proved that Li Cunxu's premonition was wrong this time. He still hadn't broken through after meditating.

This time, it was the Little White Spider who woke him up again.

This time, it wasn't because a mutated Slime had appeared, but because the Little White Spider's Black Iron clone had found an underground river.

"Time is of the essence, let's go immediately."

The Blood Demon Jewel was buried in an underground location within the mine vein secret realm. There was no coordinate address channel. Li Cunxu only remembered vague clues, and his time in the mine vein secret realm was limited, so he had to seize the time.

The mine tunnels branched out like a maze. Li Cunxu didn't like this kind of environment. He had gotten lost countless times in this secret realm before, and it had created a little shadow in his mind regarding the underground environment.

On the way, Li Cunxu realized that having the Earth Slimes find the underground river wasn't a good idea, because the mine tunnels were too complicated, and many Earth Slimes had gotten lost.

A circular tunnel was crowded with a group of Earth Slimes, constantly circling a stone pillar, trapped in an infinite loop.

"The Earth Slimes never got lost in the underground passage of the ranch. Could it be because the Earth Slimes aren't familiar with this place?"

But the Little White Spider navigated precisely to the mine tunnel where the Black Iron clone had found the underground river, as if returning home.

"Even the Earth Slimes that live underground get lost because they aren't familiar with the place. Why don't you get lost? Oh, I forgot, the Widow Red Spider clan belongs to the cave creatures."

The air in this mine tunnel was very humid. On the walls, water droplets could be seen slowly dripping down from time to time, forming tiny streams. In the silence of the underground, they made a gurgling sound. The light of the mine lamp reflected on the wet stone walls, projecting mottled spots of light, like stars jumping on the water surface. Dust danced in the light beams, as if they were spirits who had lost their way, searching for a way out in the darkness.

Arriving at the deepest part of the mine tunnel, a winding underground river flowed quietly. The river water was crystal clear, and the light shining on the calm river surface emitted a faint blue glow. Bizarre stalactites hung from the top of the cave, like natural murals.

"The calm underground river should be it."

Taking out a waterproof suit from his backpack, drinking a bottle of warm sheep's milk, and then drinking a bottle of underwater breathing potion, Li Cunxu stepped into the icy underground river step by step, carrying a glowing kerosene lamp.

The kerosene lamp was waterproof, so there was no need to worry about it going out.

"Should I go downstream or upstream?"

It had been too long, and Li Cunxu didn't quite remember whether he had to reach the end of the river or the source of the river.

"Let's go upstream first!"

If he went downstream first and reached the end of the river, only to find it wasn't the place, he would have to turn around and go to the upper reaches of the river. Going upstream was very energy-consuming, especially having to go upstream the entire underground river.

If he went upstream first and reached the source of the river, only to find it wasn't the place, going upstream would indeed be very energy-consuming, but returning would be downstream, and going downstream the entire underground river would be much easier than going upstream the entire underground river.

He didn't know how long he swam. He stopped three times to rest, and finally reached the source of the river.

The source of the underground river was a very deep pool. There was a hole in the middle of the cave ceiling, and water flowed straight down continuously, like a water column.

There was a saying circulating among the 《God's Domain》 players: don't ignore anomalies. Anomalies may be dangerous, but they may also be opportunities.

The return journey was still long, but there were great gains.

Li Cunxu found two gold nuggets of different sizes at the bottom of the river. He suspected that there was a gold mine under this river.

The underground river was unexpectedly long. He rested five times along the way, and drank another bottle of underwater breathing potion.

Li Cunxu bought underwater breathing potions that lasted for two hours. Ten minutes before the effect expired, he would clearly feel that breathing underwater became difficult.

Arriving at the end of the river, a mudslide blocked the river.

"It should be here. I have a bit of an impression."

"What should I do next? I remember digging straight in one direction, but which direction should I dig in?"

"Is it left, is it right, or is it forward?"

The newest novel is at 6 9 Shuba first!

Li Cunxu couldn't remember. The time was too long ago.

"Since I can't remember, let's dig in all three directions. Anyway, I have Earth Slimes."

Li Cunxu released the Earth Slimes and Miner Slimes from his pet bag.

These Slimes were more than enough to dig one tunnel, but three tunnels were a bit too much for the Slimes.

"Little Yi, your Black Iron clone is still staying there, right! Have it send the Earth Slimes from there."

Li Cunxu didn't bring all the Earth Slimes before going down to the underground river. There wasn't enough space in the pet bag.

"Sisi~ (I can't command the Earth Slimes.)"

"Have your clone directly throw them into the river. Going downstream, they will flow to us here."

Earth Slimes dislike water, but they are not afraid of water. They won't drown like Fire Slimes.

Li Cunxu lost his iron pickaxe and couldn't participate in the digging. He sat on a large bluestone to meditate.

He had a premonition several times that he would break through with meditation, but his premonitions were wrong several times.

Each time, he was just a little bit short, each time he was just a little bit short, which made him anxious and unable to concentrate on meditation.

"Take a break. I might be too tense."

He sat on the large bluestone, contemplating life. Looking at the clear water below, he suddenly thought of a question.

This place was cut off due to a collapse. In theory, the water should be very deep here, but the water here wasn't even as deep as the pool at the source of the underground river. So where did the water go?

Li Cunxu jumped into the bottom of the river to find the answer.

This search made him even more confused.

There was no outlet at the bottom of the river.

Without an outlet, how did the water disappear out of thin air?

Something was fishy.

There might be something below.

Mining at the bottom of the river was extremely difficult.

Earth Slimes were a bit light and couldn't sink easily. Miner Slimes had iron pickaxes in their hands and could sink easily.

But there was resistance in the water, and the mining progress was very slow.

After digging for three days, they finally unlocked the secret of the underwater.
