CHAPTER 2242: CHAPTER 2240: HARRISON CLAN

After understanding the cultivation situation here, Peter Brown asked, "Is the sect here very powerful?"

"Senior, our region is controlled by the Great Void Sect, a very powerful sect. The disciples within have the ability to overturn the seas, and everyone takes pride in joining the Great Void Sect." As these words were spoken, the five people glanced at Peter Brown again, wondering where this person had come from, as he seemed unaware of everything.

Of course, not a single person dared to ask, as Peter Brown’s fierce demeanor was something they couldn’t resist.

"Is there no other sect besides the Great Void Sect?"

"Not exactly, the Great Void Sect is like a giant entity; it controls such a vast territory that ordinary people can’t walk out of its area in a lifetime. The Harrison clan is just one among the many families under the Great Void Sect."

"The Harrison clan?"

Peter Brown now knew he had been brought here by someone from the Harrison clan.

Noticing that Peter Brown didn’t understand the situation here, Mino had no choice but to explain, "Senior, there are many families under the Great Void Sect, some big and some small, many possessing Knowledge Sea power. The Harrison clan has inner disciples within the Great Void Sect, therefore their family is also very large."

"Is a family with inner disciples very strong?" Peter Brown was somewhat puzzled; he really didn’t expect the Giant Being Tribe to have only one inner disciple from the Great Void Sect.

"Senior, don’t underestimate the inner disciples of the Great Void Sect. As long as someone in the family becomes an inner disciple, the family turns around instantly."

Peter Brown was somewhat speechless, truly not expecting the Giant Being Tribe’s backing to be so simple.

Thinking for a moment, Peter Brown asked, "Does the power of First Heaven have a connection with the Great Void Sect?"

"Absolutely, the Great Void Sect controls a portion of the Lower Realm’s power, which it deems insignificant and delegates to families to manage. The details are not very clear."

"What exactly is the relationship between families and sects?" Peter Brown asked again.

"To put it this way, the Great Void Sect is a sect. Even a sect needs some power to handle affairs, and families are such a power. Their existence is mainly to handle some trivial matters for the sect."

Peter Brown nodded slightly. It seemed that even the sect wasn’t too clear about affairs in First Heaven.

"What are people mining here?" Peter Brown finally had the opportunity to inquire about the situation here.

Upon hearing the question, everyone was equally speechless. After a hesitation, Mino said, "Senior, you don’t know? It’s Life Stone, necessary for cultivation."

Life Stone?

Peter Brown just realized that this stone is called Life Stone. However, upon careful reflection, it seemed this stone indeed possessed life.

Under Peter Brown’s pressure, everyone began the introduction again. With the introduction, Peter Brown understood that everyone here needed Life Stones for cultivation. Here, Life Stones are like Spirit Stones from the Cultivation World; cultivation with these stones allows faster upgrading.

Peter Brown took out a Life Stone and held it in his hand. With the operation of his Cultivation Technique, Peter Brown clearly felt a Great Power entering his Elixir Sea.

With the influx of this energy, Peter Brown felt a lively energy in his Elixir Sea.

After sensing the energy within his body again, Peter Brown was surprised once more; the energy gained some subtle upgrades, indeed faster than when he cultivated alone.

Watching Peter Brown experiment with the Life Stone, the five people exchanged glances, their eyes full of confusion.

"Senior is not from Second Heaven?" Mino bravely asked.

Peter Brown did not hide this from him. He nodded slightly, "I’m from First Heaven, forcibly brought by the Harrison clan."

Oh!

The five people finally understood, but their expressions were filled with bitterness. They were people from Second Heaven, yet they had been subdued by someone from First Heaven.

This person is really from First Heaven?

Totally incomprehensible.

"Are there many people mining here?" Peter Brown was curious about everything here.

"Very many, this is a secret mining site of the Harrison clan, with numerous Life Stones. It’s unknown how many people their family has captured. No one who enters can leave alive; they all die inside. If someone managed to get out, this place would be eradicated by the sect."

Upon speaking of this matter, Mino and the others displayed a look of hatred.

"You can’t break the seal?"

With bitter smiles, everyone shook their heads, and Mino said, "It’s a Special Secret Technique of the Harrison clan. A single error in cracking it leads to death." As he spoke, they looked at Peter Brown with hopeful eyes.

Peter Brown ignored their gazes, unaware of their combat power after breaking the seal. For him, a person from First Heaven, if their power was too strong, he wouldn’t know if he could survive. There was no thought of helping them break the seal; not killing them was already good enough.

Seeing that Peter Brown had no intention to free them, their expressions became ones of helplessness.

"Is mining Life Stone very difficult?" Peter Brown asked again.

"Yes, very difficult. Sometimes after searching for a long time, you find nothing. Sometimes, in abandoned mine shafts, there is a large discovery. These objects have life; they will find safe places on their own."

Peter Brown nodded, having discovered the unique properties of these stones.

"Additionally, Senior, due to the presence of Life Stones in this mine, many fierce beasts and underground Spiritual Objects appear here. If you’re not careful, you may be killed by those fierce beasts or Life Beasts. Too many people have died here."

Speaking of this, everyone’s eyes reflected greater hatred toward the Charles Family.

"What do you trade the mined stones for?"

"Too many things, first is food; we all need food. Moreover, the life energy in this mine is excessively large; our bodies can’t withstand it. We have to consume Elixirs to resolve it, which their family can provide. There is also a Beast Avoidance Pill; after consumption, one can avoid Life Beasts for a certain time."

After mentioning Life Beasts for a while, Peter Brown came to know that underground here were fierce beasts with extremely strong life energy, called Life Beasts by everyone.

It’s truly not an ordinary place!
