You Were Supposed to Explore for Minerals, So How Did You Dig Up Sun Wukong?

This is a world filled with spiritual energy and secret realms.

Beneath the surface in these secret realms lie countless resources. Above ground are all kinds of chance encounters, ferocious beasts, ruins, and more...

For humanity to grow stronger faster, people have to explore for minerals and hunt ferocious beasts in the secret realms...

That's why prospectors are just as important as soldiers here.

Wan Su can't join the army, so he switches to prospecting.

But he never expected...

On his first prospecting trip, he discovers a camphor forest, a bamboo grove, and several rubber vines.

On his second trip, he discovers fragrant wild boars, golden-feathered chickens, and several five-fingered figs.

On his 99th trip, he finds a cave with a monkey chained up inside.

Soldier: "Wait, how come you can find anything except minerals?!"

Prospector: "Which fishing nut taught you to prospect like that?!"

Viewers: "We sent you out to prospect, and you found Sun Wukong?!"
