Yang Fei was utterly baffled. Although the work of a miner was extremely arduous, it was nothing to Yang Fei.

However, waking up one day to find himself inexplicably thrown into this wretched place as a miner, without any explanation, made Yang Fei extremely uncomfortable.

No one likes to be toyed with like this.

Yang Fei attempted to mobilize the Essence Qi within his body and discovered that it had recovered a little bit. Although not much, it was enough to make him stronger than an ordinary person.

This discovery made Yang Fei incredibly joyful.

What he feared most was the destruction of the Martial Arts Skills he arduously trained, but now it seemed there was a possibility of gradual recovery.

Just at this moment, there were two loud bangs in the distance. Two soldiers armed with rifles aimed at two slaves and opened fire.

The two slaves fell down woodenly, even in their final moments, neither made a sound.

Yang Fei jumped in fright.

Damn it, even though human life here was cheap as dirt, was there really a need to open fire and kill for no reason?

Agu's eyes were filled with intense anger, teeth clenched tightly.

Yang Fei nodded. It seemed this fellow countryman of his from Huaxia still had some sense of justice.

He quietly asked in Chinese, "Agu, what's going on here?"

Previously, Yang Fei and Agu had communicated in English, so switching to Chinese suddenly startled Agu.

Immediately, Agu was filled with surprise and joy, "Sir, turns out you're Huaxia people?"

Yang Fei nodded, his eyes still fixed on the two corpses in the distance.

Lying on the ground was a black person and a yellow person, both with their heads blown open, brains and blood scattered on the ground.

Agu, recovering from his surprise, pursed his lips.

"They were certainly reported by someone. Here, trying to escape results in being shot, stealing from the Diamond Mine results in being shot, stealing food results in being shot."

"Sometimes, even just whispering together can be seen as plotting and result in being shot."

Yang Fei was startled again, swearing, "Damn it, this is so perverted!"

Agu dared not say much, only reminding Yang Fei.

"Keep your wits about you, don't talk to anyone, and absolutely don't mention the outside world. Once you're here, it's as if you're already dead."

His eyes showed a look of hatred.

"Slaves report on each other for the reward of a black bread, so all the slaves report one another in various ways."

"And the accused doesn't need to be verified, they might just lose their life."

A chill ran down Yang Fei's spine, clenching his teeth.

"A single black bread can persuade someone to end another's life? This place must be worse than hell!"

Agu sighed.

"You'll get used to it slowly. To survive, this is the only way."

At that moment, Yang Fei suddenly noticed a pair of vacant yet malicious eyes staring at him and Agu intensely, giving him a fright.

Agu also noticed the black slave stealthily approaching them and cried out in desperation.

"Catch him! If he reports us, we'll both be shot!"

The black slave suddenly turned and ran.

Agu lunged forward, grabbing his leg, twisting fiercely, and threw the black slave to the ground.

The black slave struggled fiercely, but Agu desperately held onto his leg, signaling Yang Fei.

"Quick, kill him, or else both of us will die."

Yang Fei looked at the black slave's numb face, full of despair and panic.

He sighed silently, walked over, seized his jaw, and with a crack, twisted his neck like a pretzel.

The black slave's body struggled violently, a short and low moan emanating from his neck.

Agu held his hands and feet tightly until he lost his life.

Only after confirming the guy had taken his last breath did Agu let him go, stood up, and gestured for Yang Fei to leave quickly.

The place they had been talking was in front of a mine shaft. Amazingly, they had killed someone silently, without anyone noticing.

Agu led Yang Fei away, traveling several dozen yards from the mine before stopping.

He leaned against the rough rock wall carelessly, spitting a mouthful of saliva.

"That idiot, he tried to get us killed, so we had to kill him first."

Yang Fei couldn't resist asking, "Doesn't anyone manage these kinds of things?"

Agu shook his head carelessly, feeling resigned.

"No one manages these things at all. For the Supervisor, as long as the daily Diamond Mine digging task is completed, a few deaths don't matter."

"Anyway, slaves are delivered every day, and just as many die every day."

Yang Fei cursed, "Damn it, this is literally hell, Agu. Have you ever thought about escaping?"

Agu jumped in fright, nervously scanning the surroundings to ensure no one was nearby before sighing.

"Of course, I dream about it. But those foreign devils' guns don't have eyes, plus there's an electric grid and bunkers. Escaping is as hard as ascending to heaven."

Yang Fei nodded, "Where there's a will, there's a way. We can't just stay here waiting to die, can we?"

Agu was a bit excited, "Great."

"I know a few fellow countrymen from Huaxia. I'll get in touch with them, see if we can unite and escape this hellish place together."

Yang Fei reached out and shook his hand in agreement.

Agu enthusiastically walked out of the mining heap.

Yang Fei habitually patted himself for cigarettes, but finding nothing, he sighed in disappointment.

At that moment, a faint voice entered Yang Fei's ear.

"Don't smoke. Your body was almost wasted. I barely used the Xuantian Nine Needles to bring you back to life."

Yang Fei shivered, turning to see a man in a black cloak standing beside a mining heap.

He stood tall and handsome, his features chiselled like marble, both cool and attractive.

Yang Fei gaped, staring blankly at this mysterious man.

"Did you save me? Why did you leave me in this hellhole?"

The mysterious man gazed at Yang Fei calmly.

"Right now, I've only helped you recover your vitality. To restore your Cultivation, you need to stay here and find the Phoenix Extreme."

"Phoenix Nirvana reborn. Once you cultivate Phoenix Extreme, you can regain your peak strength and continue striving for the highest peak of Martial Arts."

Yang Fei was stunned by the mysterious man's words, his mouth wide open.

"How do you know the Phoenix Extreme is here?"

The mysterious man smiled slightly.

"Of course, I know because I'm the one who hid Phoenix Extreme here."

Yang Fei was shocked, finally exclaiming after a while.

"Why did you hide Phoenix Extreme here?"

The mysterious man sighed.

"There are many things that I can't explain to you all at once."

"You only need to understand one thing: Phoenix Extreme is deep within the earth veins of this mine, nourished by the heat of the earth's core, absorbing the power of the earth veins."

"I made you pretend to be a miner to let you delve into the earth veins and find Phoenix
