The next day arrived quickly since they all cultivated their Mana throughout the night and easily lost track of time.
They all got to work and began to clear out the blockage at the entrance of the canyon.
To Alex's surprise, it took them five days to completely clear out the rocks and nightmare thorns. They took this long because of how slow they were working. They did want to make huge movements that would alert the nightmare thorn so they did the job at a slow pace. They found the bones of different types of beasts amongst the blockage while they were clearing it, they also discovered that there was more than one nightmare thorn in the blockage. The damned plant was surprisingly easy to kill after its main body was found.
