As they chatted, the ship eventually came to a stop. The hatch opened, and Madame Rouge and her
men approached.
Madame Rouge hardly gave Jasmine and the others a glance. To her, they appeared to be no different
from ants.

Instead, she addressed a group of workers. âDevilâs Hill is here. Senior Lee, Iâm still a reasonable
person. You guys help me dig. Your mission will be accomplished as long as you open the mining
channel and find the Witch Essence inside. Iâll send you back safely, and the residents of your Unicorn
Fortress will also be safe and sound.â
âI have a request,â the elderly man remarked.
âSpeak!â
âI want ten dominant lord-level experts to guard us the entire time. These guys are all too weak and do
not even qualify as cannon fodder. When we enter the mine and problems arise, no one will help us
block the enemy. You will be busy for nothing,â he said, pointing at Jasmine and the others.
Jasmine
Alex
âYes!â seconded Madame Rouge.
âThese few trash fishes are not even qualified to be cannon fodder, but itâs okay to be a weak chicken
to scout the way,â the man continued.
Jasmine was overcome with sadness. The Diffracted Universeâs number one person had actually been
reduced to this state. He was despised to be used as cannon fodder by someone.
Jasmine
Alex
âAll right, everyone, get off the ship!â
Jasmine expected Devilâs Hill to be a mountain or something, but it wasnât until he stepped outside the
cabin that he realized he was still at the bottom of the sea, even deeper and darker than before. Good
thing Madame Rougeâs people had prepared a light source that could illuminate the sea bottom.
Hence, they dived all the way to the bottom.

The water pressure here was extremely high. If ordinary people did not cultivate, surviving in such an
environment would be impossible. They would be crushed by the great pressure in an instant. As a
result, the ban on Jasmine and the others was lifted.

Jasmine sighed quietly, not having finished the mysteries of the thirteen stars that Hayley had left for
himself. This speed would be very slow if it relied solely on itself to operate and passively lift the seal.
Jasmine

Jasmine entered the area of Devilâs Hill. A number of old diggers came to a halt.
Jasmine
Alex
âGo on, what are you stopping for?â asked a man.
âThis place⦠Iâm afraid itâs forbidden. We canât mine here!â said the old mine master.
Madame Rouge became enraged. âWhat forbidden territory? Even if it is a sinkhole, you must enter it
and dig! Sam, keep an eye out for me. Whoever does not do something will be beheaded!â
Aggrieved, the old mining master stomped his foot, but there was no way out.
After a half-hour wait. A crowd gathered at Devilâs Hill mine pit.
Jasmine knew that just a short time ago, an ancient coffin had been dug out here, and inside it was a
dressed-up female corpse whose flesh hadnât decayed. But just a short time later, the female corpse
mysteriously vanished, and the digger was cursed. Those who were at the mine during that time all
died.
Jasmine
Alex
Those who were at the mine during that time all died. Not to mention the miners, even the dominant
lord-level experts were unable to carry it, and seven died as a result.
Jasmine and others felt a tingle in their skulls when they heard this. The seawater-immersed mine shaft
was black and dark, like a demon with its mouth open.
Jasmine
Alex
âItâs been a month. Iâm wondering if the curse inside is still active?â Sam asked.
âFirst, letâs call a trash fish to come over and try,â Madame Rouge suggested.
âSheâs the one!â she exclaimed as she swept her gaze over Empress Ghast.
When Empress Ghast heard that, her face whitened.
