Super Gene Hunting Ground

After discussing with Xing Zhe, Yang Xiao decided to temporarily stay in the tunnel to cultivate.

"Just in case, let's go back first and close the stone gate of the tunnel we came in from."

"Alright."

The two of them returned to the base of cultivation field 101, restored the stone gate, and then collapsed the rocks above the tunnel from inside, completely blocking a segment of the tunnel to prevent rescue from discovering this secret passage.

Having done all this, the two returned to the tunnel where the six-winged centipede was and began cultivating.

The concentration of genetic evolution energy in the cave was several times thicker than that of the ninth-level cultivation field. Yang Xiao and Xing Zhe greedily embarked on the Evolution Technique of Wuji Academy, absorbing the genetic evolution energy voraciously, feeling the subtle changes in their bodies.

Aside from running the Evolution Technique, they also soaked their bodies in the Underground River water.

The Underground River water contained powerful evolution energy, soaking in it for several minutes cleared away all fatigue, refreshing them, and reviving their energy.

The meat of the Ghost Snake and the six-winged centipede was enough for the two to eat for several months.

For easy preservation, Yang Xiao and Xing Zhe took turns using the Cold Ice Skill to freeze the corpses of the two demon beasts. Whenever they needed to eat, they would take out a portion.

In addition, using the Flying Goldfish was an extra enjoyment, providing even stronger replenishment of evolution energy.

In the cave, they lost their sense of time, engrossed in cultivation. Every day, aside from sleeping, they cultivated. With the Underground River's ability to quickly restore fatigue, Yang Xiao estimated he was possibly only sleeping for about four hours each day, and was full of endless energy.

Their genetic evolution speed also greatly increased, and every so often, they would increase by 1 point in genetic attribute value.

This feeling kept Yang Xiao and Xing Zhe in excitement. Gradually, they had forgotten about leaving the cave and returning to the academy.

...

Jiang En, Jiang Hao, and Lv Ling, along with dozens of team members, urgently arrived at the original site of cultivation field 101 early the next morning. They were shocked to see cultivation field 101 completely collapsed and buried under a small mountain.

"What on earth happened?"

"Where are Xing Zhe and Yang Xiao?"

"Could it be that they are buried in the underground tunnel of cultivation field 101?"

"It's been a whole night, what should we do? Are Yang Xiao and Xing Zhe still alive?"

"How should we rescue them?"

...

Everyone was talking about it, almost all assuming that if Yang Xiao and Xing Zhe were still in the tunnel of cultivation field 101, there was surely no hope for their survival.

Lv Ling looked at Jiang En and said:

"Senior Brother Jiang En, what should we do?"

Jiang En circled around the pile of rubble several times, observed the ruins for a while, and sighed:

"Yang Xiao said yesterday he wanted to check out cultivation field 101, and Yang Xiao and Xing Zhe never returned to our campsite. If I guess right, they must be in the underground tunnel.

The underground tunnels of each cultivation field are complex, having several to dozens of layers. If only the top tunnel collapsed, they could live off air in the tunnel and their supplies for about half a month.

However,"

Jiang En looked at the mountain of rubble with a troubled expression.

By his side, Jiang Hao said:

"Jiang En, you're worried that with so much rubble, we can't clear it away in half a month, so there won't be time to rescue Yang Xiao and Xing Zhe, right?"

Jiang En nodded and said:

"The original cultivation field 101 was beneath a small mountain about a hundred meters high. Now, it has mostly collapsed, completely burying cultivation field 101. To rescue Yang Xiao and Xing Zhe, we must first clear these stones away.

However, given such a large workload, how can we clear it with only a few dozen of us?"

Lv Ling nodded,

"Yang Xiao brought this disaster upon himself. What was he doing coming to cultivation field 101 for no reason? What's so interesting about it? He's just a yokel who deserved to die, and now he's implicated Senior Brother Xing Zhe, sigh!"

"Junior Sister Lv Ling, Yang Xiao is already in trouble, and you're still saying this. It's not gracious. Yang Xiao didn't do it intentionally. If he knew the mountain would collapse, how could he have come to watch the spectacle?"

Lv Ling gave Jiang Hao a sideways glance but didn't argue.

Jiang En suddenly muttered to himself:

"It's strange. How did cultivation field 101 suddenly collapse?"

...

Looking at the mountain-like ruins, for a moment, no one knew what to do.

Jiang En gritted his teeth one last time and said:

"Let's end this hunt early, reduce everyone's expenses by half, and return to Wuji Academy immediately. I must report the situation here to the academy, hoping they can organize a rescue mission."

Jiang Hao nodded,

"That's our only option. Hopefully, there's still a chance to save Yang Xiao and Xing Zhe."

The rest of the team had nothing else to say and gathered their things, heading back to Wuji Academy together.

Jiang En, Jiang Hao, and Lv Ling urgently reached the academy's Student Affairs Department and found the head, Director Lin Qu.

"Director Lin, something's wrong. Cultivation field 101 has collapsed."

Lin Qu, a middle-aged man, changed his expression when hearing Jiang En's report,

"Oh? Cultivation field 101 collapsed? No wonder the academy detected strong tremors on Wuji Island yesterday. The academy was investigating, but we didn't expect it to be due to the collapse of cultivation field 101,

This is strange. How does a properly built cultivation field collapse out of the blue? Luckily, it was an abandoned field, so no one should have been hurt, right?"

The trio of Jiang En's expressions changed.

Director of the Student Affairs Lin Qu glanced at them,

"What? Was there someone inside the cultivation field?"

"Director Lin, I report that Emperor Level realm students Xing Zhe and Yang Xiao were both in cultivation field 101 at the time and are now unaccountable. We request the academy to send someone for rescue."

"What? Xing Zhe was inside the cultivation field? Buried?

What's Xing Zhe doing messing around in cultivation field 101? Does he have nothing better to do?"

Wuji Academy, home to 108 Emperor Level students, values each student greatly.

Xing Zhe was ranked in the top thirty students, reasonably well-known, and Director Lin Qu was familiar with him.

Lin Qu wasn't familiar with Yang Xiao, so he didn't express any regret for Yang Xiao being buried.

Jiang Hao quickly added,

"The new Emperor Level evolver Yang Xiao is also buried in the construction site."

Lin Qu, now slightly startled, looked at Jiang Hao,

"Yang Xiao? Is it the new student, the Emperor Level evolver who took mansion 68, Yang Xiao?"

Jiang Hao nodded,

"Yes, it is indeed Yang Xiao, and he too is buried."

"How did the two of them end up together?"

Lin Qu's voice suddenly rose, a hint of anger. Losing two Emperor Level evolvers at once, how could he not be furious?

Even the dean would be angry upon hearing this news.

Jiang En quickly explained,

"Director Lin, it's my fault. We formed a group to hunt, and Yang Xiao mentioned it was his first time outside on Wuji Island and wanted to see nearby cultivation field 101. I didn't foresee any danger, so I sent Xing Zhe with him. I never expected..."

Jiang En's expression was full of self-blame, feeling very uncomfortable.

As leader of the hunting team, Jiang En felt responsible for every team member, especially when such a grave incident occurred.

After all, these are the lives of two Emperor Level evolvers!

"You, you..."

Lin Qu pointed at Jiang En, looking deeply pained.

"Come with me to see the dean and discuss how the dean intends to organize the rescue."
