"Death Sound Array"

A high pitch sound resounded in everyone's ears. Their Spiritual Energy was disrupted by the sound. Every Martial Art was undone at this moment. They covered their eyes that were still ringing because of the sound.

"Go!" Alex shouted.

Alex and Putri went inside the cave. Of course, the pursuers still followed them inside the cave. In a few seconds, they finally stopped at the dead end. There was no place for them to escape.

Jake Bell snorted, "Hmph, you just chose the stupidest move you can choose. It proved your inexperience."

Alex only smiled at him. "Is that so? You think so? Well, I have chosen the best option I have at the moment, which is to kill you along with me. Sherry"

"Wuu"

Alex and Sherry made forty firebirds and let them exploded on the cave's ceiling. The Bell family immediately realized, they wanted them to be buried alive with them. Jake Bell immediately shouted. "Retreat, they want us to be buried alive with them. Haha, stupid, you are the one who will be trapped by your own foolishness."

Sherry went back inside him. Because their focuses was on escaping, the Bell family didn't realize what Alex did.

Alex reached Putri's waist with his hand and pulled her into his embrace. Putri was shocked to say anything. She was thinking, at least dying in a person's embrace might not be a sad thing. Although he wasn't her loved one, at least she had considered him as her Younger Brother, a.k.a her family.

She was suddenly shocked when Alex took out a monster skin from his inventory. On the monster's skin, there were too many symbols planted on it. It was actually an Array Plate. Alex activated it before the ceiling started raining on them. The Array Plate started glowing as suddenly an Array appeared on his feet, and finally, they disappeared.

Bell's family didn't know that Alex and Putri had disappeared before the ceiling fell and crushed them to death.

They appeared a hundred meters beneath them previously. Alex can't see the space inside the ground and only saw the energy. Because of that, he miscalculated the room beneath the ground. It was spacious enough and after they teleported to this place. They still fell down and,

"Boom!"

They felt into the water. It was an underground lake. Unlike the lake inside a cave that he found back in Zunde Field, the lake was only an ordinary water lake.

Outside, the Bell family saw what happened to the cave. They gasped. If they were inside the cave, they would undoubtedly die, crushed by those giant rocks. They might destroy a few rocks with their Martial Arts. But the cave was inside a tall cliff. The cliff collapsed after Alex blew it up.

They were convinced that the two must be torn to pieces with those many rocks fell on them. Finally, Jake Bell ordered a retreat. Although they lost a lot, at least they won't be pursued by Heavenly Sword Sect. If they found their dead body under those rocks, he was sure it was like a natural case. If they dug down their body, the Heavenly Sword Sect must suspect something from it.

Back to the cave, Alex and Putri fell into the water. They instinctively jumped out of the water. Putri then grabbed his shoulder. She held back too much before this. She really wanted to ask him and vented her curiosity. "You...you have a Fire Element, and a very strong one at that? And not only that, you are an Array Master too? You said that you just knew some knowledge about it. But actually, you are an Array Master. And that fox, although it was only a Master Stage fox, it has high intelligent. You... Just how high is your talent? you..."

Alex smiled wryly. He said, "Senior Sister. It's better to change your clothes first."

With the clothes absorbing the water and became wet. It wrapped very tightly to the body. Alex can clearly see how good the shape of Putri's body. Her very curves and edges. It was indeed a very good body, it was almost... C...

Putri finally calmed down a bit after he said that. She blushed. Fortunately, she still maintained some degree of rationality. She didn't scream and slap him unreasonably. She said, "Um, then we should face in the opposite direction and change our clothes, your clothes also needed to be changed. Don't peek, Junior Brother. I trust you."

That 'Trust' word seems very heavy on his ears. Of course, Alex didn't have any intention to do that. He made a distance from each other and let their back facing each other. Not long after, Alex and Putri had changed their clothing, Putri was drying her hair with her wind element. This time, she had calmed down and waved at him, "Come here. I will also dry your hair."

Alex didn't say anything and come to her. She looked at Alex, "Why did you keep your talent a secret?"

Alex looked at her, "Too much talent might bring a calamity for themself."

Putri suddenly became pensive. She then said, "Yeah, you might be right. You have unparalleled talent in the sword, then you have a very strong fire. You also have a pet that highly intelligent. And to much surprise, you are an Array Master. No, your identity as an Array Master alone makes all the sect want to possess you.

If they know you have all of your talent. There would be only two possible reasons. The other sects will try to invite you to join, and if you reject them, they will still maintain a good relationship with you. And the other thing will happen, they will hunt you and make sure you die. So, the Heavenly Sword Sect won't be able to sit on top of them."

"That's why I hope Senior Sister to keep this a secret from others" Alex said. Fortunately, she still didn't know his identity as an Alchemist and his talent in Spear. His talent in Spear might also crush her and break her down.

To his surprise, Putri suddenly said. "With the Heaven and Earth as the witness, I promise that I won't tell anyone about your talents and I will keep this secret till my death or until you revealed it on your own"

"Senior Sister?" Alex was dumbfounded. He thought he was fine if Putri only promised it with a verbal promise, but he never thought she would bind herself with Heavenly Oath.

"I talked with my action" She only said that.

Alex's heart got warmth. He thought, 'Yeah, maybe I can really trust my back to her.'

"Thank you."

After that, they finally aware of their surroundings. In their eyes, there were only Spirit Stones.

"Is this..." Alex hesitated.

"A spirit stone mine" Putri gave him a confirmation. Both of them gasped on the truth.

But suddenly, they stopped at the sight of a skeleton in front of them with a big mountain of Spirit Stones beside him. They saw a note under its hand and read it.

"I'm Ungus Skewes. It was an unusual family name. I was a custodian of the Skewes family. There was an order for Skewes Family Extermination, and we were besieged by the royal family of Tulip Kingdom, they were after our secret art. All of us tried to escape, but because of the pursuers were very powerful, we decided to split up.

I desperately escaped from them, and finally, I found some cave entrance behind a waterfall. Since you have come here, I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. Yeah, it was the entrance of this cave. I don't know who you are who managed to found this place, but I beg you. If you find any Skewes Family member, please help them.

In my Space Ring, there is a technique called Spatial Door Technique. This is our family inheritance. At first, I thought of giving it to the bloodline of the Skewes Family. But before I had the chance to give this to them. The royal family had caught up, so we need to split up. There are still many other treasures inside my Space Ring.

I had calculated the number of the Spirit Stones inside this mine. I hadn't mine them all, and all the stone I had mine, I left it beside me. I was poisoned deeply and will die in a few days. So, I mine this Spirit Stones to the best of my ability. There were three hundred thousand Spirit Stones inside the mine. I had mine two hundred thousand of them. The mine was a soft mine, so you can mine them pretty easily. There was no danger or whatever inside this mine. So I'm sure you can extract the rest in a few days.

Including, the fifty thousand Spirit Stones inside my space ring. I beg you. If you found any Skewes Family remain. Please help them. If they have been completely exterminated. Please, remember, there was once a Skewes Family."

After reading the note, Both of their eyes locked. Alex broke his silence. "What is soft mine?"

"Soft mine is only a classification for Spirit Stones Mine. It was a name to classify that the mine was easy to extract. There were also hard mine. A Spirit Stones mine will be called Hard mine if the Spirit Stones inside the mine was hard or stuck on the wall or the ground. And even after we excavated them, they were still some substances stuck at them, and we need to clean it before the Spirit Stones can be used. But in this soft mine, there was no chance it would happen. We can just pluck it like we pluck a fruit from a normal tree."

"I see" Alex nodded. "What should we do?"

"Well, we might want to bury this person on the surface. And according to his words, this mine was covered by a waterfall. That must be the reason why this mine has not been discovered yet."

"Alright" Alex nodded.

Putri stored the skeleton inside her space ring. She gave the Space Ring to Alex. Alex checked it, there were many treasures as she said. She said, "You keep the space ring. I will also help you to mine them all. You should be the one who has them"

Upon hearing that, Alex frowned. "Senior Sister. What do you mean by that!"

"I feel bad if you didn't accept it. You have used a Teleportation Array Plate just now. It was a priceless treasure. Or are you the one who made that?"

"No. It was not me" Alex shook his head. After all, it was from the system.

"Then, it was really a priceless treasure. I can't let you have a deficit since you have saved my life." Putri said.

"No, I can't accept that. We have been through life and death together. At least, we need to keep them equally. No, you are my Senior Sister, you should take more."

"No!"

Alex and Putri kept bickering with each other for a while. Ultimately, they decided to split the treasure inside the ring 70-30. Alex kept seventy percent while Putri kept the thirty, of course for the family treasured book, Alex was the one who held it. Alex also will get two hundred thousand Spirit Stones, and Putri will get one hundred fifty thousand Spirit Stones. They didn't split it to 70-30. Alex insisted on that. They didn't need to share or report this to their sect since there were no rules about that. This was called a blessing in disguise.

They used four days to mine the rest of the spirit stones. If this were a hard mine, they would need to do it for a few months.

Finishing all the Spirit Stones inside. They finally left the mine. Surprisingly, the room next to them was a hot room. There were magma below them. The heat from the magma was intense. Putri can't stand it, even if she can pass this room, she would be heavily injured by the extreme heat. It seems this room wasn't like this before. If not, the person inside the mine wouldn't be able to enter. Alex immediately erected a barrier with his Fire Element to hold back the heat.

"Senior Sister, are you okay?" Alex asked.

"Yeah, after you erected a barrier. I didn't feel the heat anymore. Thank you"

Alex nodded. He looked at the magma, he felt something was calling him inside the magma. Alex frowned.

"Senior Sister, I will help you to cross this room first. I just felt something was calling me inside the magma."

"Calling you? But that is a magma, you know. Are you sure you can handle that?"

"I can."

"Then, go. I will wait for you here." Putri said. She didn't want to cross the room first. She also indirectly told him, 'If you die inside. I will also die.'

Alex can't help but smile.

"Alright. I will be back shortly." He called Sherry to accompany Putri since Sherry might know what happened to him inside the magma. With their Life and Death contact. They can feel something was going on.

"Wuu!" Sherry understood.

Alex said to Putri, "This is Sherry. She is my partner, not my pet."

"Oh" Putri was surprised. She then nodded, "Nice to meet you, Sherry."

"Wuu" Sherry nodded and raised her paw like telling her 'Nice to meet you too.'

Alex looked at Putri, who didn't flinch at Sherry's cuteness. It seems the elegance inside her was better than Sherry's cuteness.

"Then I'm going" Alex said as he jumped toward the magma. Although his body can handle the magma. Just to be safe, Alex covered his body with his Pure Fire first.
