Chapter 26: Spy Ward

Ashton didn't find anything useful on the island.

He's been exploring these past few days, he never saw anything that would help him reach the base of this landmass faster. This left him with his only option which was to go down the hard way.

In hindsight though, the demons he fought at least gave him more battle experience. It also progressed his quest and earned him some loot.

Ashton also reached Practitioner lv.5 (5th Refinement). This made him a hell of a lot stronger than before. It feels rather crazy to him that his cultivation speed was skyrocketing despite being outside of humanity's territory but somehow, that also made sense.

It may seem like he's taking it easy, but in truth, he's always at risk so long as he's out here. His nerves are always taut, not a single moment did he ever dare to let his guard down. He's pushing himself to his limits and that's causing his potential to be squeezed out even more. Which in turn, speeds up his cultivation rate as well.

But enough about that...

It is time for him to start digging.

Back to his new base, which is the mine he mostly emptied, you would see him crouching down, hands flat on the ground while his eyes closed.

This is him scanning the ground beneath him. He was searching for the tunnels below, which he knows exist, it has to or else there'd be no way out of here.

He's starting to get nervous since he hasn't found anything close yet. He's been scanning different spots all day long to no avail. He also can't exactly go outside either to search for them since there is yet another Black Fog crawling above him.

That Black Fog will, once again, taint everything corruption and will leave hordes of demons on the island. Ashton just didn't want to deal with those for now.

Plus, nighttime's approaching. There's no way he's getting out now.

What's left for him to do is to continue his search for the closest tunnel beneath him.

Sighing for the nth time of failure, he stood up and stretched for a bit. He groaned as he felt his body stiff, he hadn't done much physically today so that might be the reason why.

He stretched some more, just to get the blood flowing. Then he found another spot. Once again, he crouched down, took a deep breath, placed his palms flat on the ground, and began scanning the depths.

Not even a few seconds in, Ashton recoiled in shock.

"Oh wow, are you kidding me?" He muttered, feeling speechless all of a sudden.

He had scanned so many spots beforehand to no avail yet this one right was right on the money. So much so that he's questioning the stability of the ground he's stepping on.

The ground separating him from the tunnel is about 5 or so feet. There is nothing that's supporting the stability of the ground beneath him so the fact that it hasn't caved in yet was very questionable.

Nevertheless, he can't complain. He already found his target.
