At this time, a figure fell down from the shadow of the tree above. It was Xiao Yue. He had multiple scratches on his body. He looked gray and embarrassed. Not many people could hurt him head-on in Yuling Forest. I don’t know what he encountered. .

"Master Xiao Yue," Tong Ying saw Xiao Yue coming back and immediately stood up regardless of herself and wanted to walk towards him, but before she could take two steps, her legs went weak. Fortunately, Chu Shuang'er helped her in time and Xiao Yue frowned. Wrinkled, he walked quickly towards the two of them.

Tong Ying saw many damages on his body and said, "Master Xiao Yue, what happened?"

Xiao Yue said: "It's nothing, just a few little things, there are two of them," he was referring to Ye Yi and Tao'er.

Chu Shuang'er explained: "They were worried about Brother Lan, so they went to find him. Where is Brother Lan, have you seen him?"

Xiao Yue shook her head and said: "I saw two tricolor geese flying away in the distance, but I didn't see Tianlan."

"Isn't that possible..." Chu Shuang'er felt her heart trembling, as if she would faint as long as Xiao Yue was sure.

"Don't worry, I secretly gave him the Silver Moon Tracking Technique when he left. I can still feel his breath now, not in the air, but underground, far away,"

When she heard that Tian Lan was still alive, Chu Shuang'er immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but Xiao Yue's next words frightened her half to death: "But his breath seems to be very weak, even I can hardly feel it, we have to hurry up ,otherwise……"

"Hurry up then, take me, take me with you," Chu Shuang'er begged. Xiao Yue looked at Tong Ying and saw her smiling and nodding, and then agreed.

Because Tong Ying's injury has not healed yet, he will stay here for the time being, waiting for Xiao Yue or Ye Yi to return.

The underground layer of Yuling Forest was not excavated manually, but because countless tree roots penetrated deep into the ground, the soil was soft, and many open spaces appeared. The underground layer changed greatly. They were not connected to each other, but section by section. , some are dead ends with no exit and no living creatures can survive, while others are inhabited by powerful spiritual beasts.

"Lan...Lan..."

He heard a faint voice calling in his ears, but when he opened his eyes, he saw darkness.

"Lan...you're awake..."

After his eyes adjusted to the darkness, he could barely see the little wand spirit in front of him. She was still so small and cute, but the mini skirt she was wearing was stained with countless stains, and her fair face was also covered with mud. , even her long brown-red hair has almost turned into cement color.

"Rong Rong..." He gradually saw the surroundings clearly. Except for Rong Rong in front of him, there was no one else. This place seemed to be underground, there was no light around, and he couldn't tell the direction of time.

Rong Rong breathed out and leaned against him, looking tired. Only then did Tian Lan realize that there were piles of soil and branches and leaves around him, but there were none on him. He was not buried alive in the ground as he thought, but there were none on his body. There was a lot of plaster, and someone must have worked hard to clear away the clods of dirt that were holding him down.

There were only two people here, him and Rong Rong. He knew without guessing that she used her small body to move the soil away from him bit by bit. It could be seen from the thick mounds of soil that she used it. How much time and effort will it take to complete this arduous task?

Rong Rong cheered up and said: "I've seen it. There are neither spiritual beasts nor spiritual plants here. There's nothing that Chu Dan'er can do if he wants to spy on us... Don't worry, Ye Yi and the others will definitely come to us." Yes, Lan, just wait a little longer,”

Tian Lan still found it difficult to move. He moved his fingers a little, took out a white medicine bottle from the storage ring, and said: "Rong Rong, help me..."

Rong Rong immediately picked up the white medicine bottle, poured out a white jade-shaped elixir from it, and said: "Lan, what is this?"

"It's a healing pill, don't worry, it's not a hemostatic pill." Healing Pill is a kind of pill that specializes in treating internal injuries. It is a relatively common one. It is in high demand in the mercenary world, and Tianlan is a healing pill. It is a high-grade healing elixir, and its efficacy is not comparable to that of popular products.

She fed him healing pills, but his injuries were too severe. The healing pills could not completely cure him. They could only temporarily stabilize his condition on this basis. If Shuang'er was here...

Putting aside the distracting thoughts in his mind, he has become more and more dependent on Shuang'er since he met her. This is not good. Shuang'er is not his private property and he cannot always wait for Shuang'er.

He closed his eyes and tried to meditate as much as possible to restore his spiritual energy while the medicine was taking effect. Perhaps he was too tired and it was rare for him to enter a deep meditation state. In this state, the spiritual energy recovery rate was several times that of the normal state. However, the disadvantage is that because you are too focused, you will not be aware of unexpected situations around you.

But with Rongrong watching over him, if anything happens, she will wake him up directly through the ocean of spirit.

"Lan, wake up," only a quarter of an hour later, a soft call came from the ocean of spirit. If there was no danger that she couldn't handle, she would not wake him up.

Tian Lan immediately opened his eyes and saw a black snake gliding towards him from the opposite side. A flash of green light and a wind blade struck the small snake and split it in half.

This little snake was very weak, but snakes that can survive underground are generally poisonous, so Rong Rong, who couldn't use his strength, couldn't drive it away, so he had to wake Tianlan up.

Deep meditation was indeed very effective. He recovered 50% to 60% of his spiritual energy in such a short period of time. He tried to move his body and found that he could barely move, so he stood up unsteadily and said, "We can't stay here any longer. Find a way to get out of here,"

Only then did he have the opportunity to pay careful attention to his surroundings. The place they were in was a cave extending in all directions. The underground roots separated the area. There were many paths to take, but no one knew where these paths led. It was said that The "road" is not quite right either, because it is a natural formation and no one has walked on it, so it is full of potholes and requires climbing over.

"Where did we fall from?" he asked Rong Rong. Rather than taking a path with unknown risks, it would be better to take the path from where we came. At least he would be mentally prepared for what he would face.

Rong Rong said: "I don't know, the entrance is probably blocked." The soil layer here is very thin, and the underground space is not large. If something collapses, it will be easily buried.

"Wait, did you hear anything?" He heard a noise on a certain road, a "swishing" sound, like the sound of water.

"Well, it sounds like the sound of water waves. Strange, is there water underground?" Is it an underground lake or water flowing down from the leaf litter? In any case, there is probably a way out where there is water, so it is worth a look.

"Well, let's go take a look." He put away the Wind Spirit Staff that he had been holding tightly in his hand, and took out a long sword from the storage ring. Let's use it as a crutch for the time being. The Wind Spirit Staff was too short, and he couldn't bear to part with it. Use the Wind Spirit Staff as a crutch.

This also proves that his current situation is so bad that he can no longer move freely, and there are still many ambushes ahead.

He stumbled forward, almost falling to the ground several times. He couldn't bear the sight of him and wanted to tell him to rest several times.

"Lan... don't be so anxious, just take a rest." She saw him half-kneeling on the ground, his hand holding the hilt of the sword trembling and breathing heavily, but she still struggled to stand up and continue moving forward. How could she bear to look at him? So.

"...The sound of water ahead sounds not far away," he stood up reluctantly holding on to his sword, sweat dripping from his forehead on his hands. He was so seriously injured that it was impossible to stand up again. Now he is half It relies on willpower, and half of it relies on the efficacy of the healing pill. If you let go now, it may be difficult to move forward.

Another snake shadow rushed toward him in the darkness, and with the same flash of green light, a wind blade killed the snake.

He sighed tiredly. This was the eighth snake he had encountered so far. There were so many snakes that he wondered if he had fallen into a snake hole...

Where he didn't notice, more and more snakes were gathering towards him. A pair of snake eyes were shining with bloodthirsty light in the dark. The two of them were still walking forward without realizing it.

This short journey took him much longer than expected, and finally he reached the source of the sound of water. The water here was not the underground water they imagined, but a black water as wide as a**, and the water surface was calm and calm. , endless as far as the eye can see, only the slight sound of water was produced by the collision of rocks on the shore, and the sound they heard came from this.

"This is..." Rong Rong looked at the black water in confusion. This was muddy water. How could it be so black? It was not the black reflected around it, but the water itself was black. In addition to the color, this black water The appearance is also very strange, not quite like water, but like a colloidal liquid.

"I didn't expect it to be a black pool..." Tian Lan frowned and asked, is this the method Chu Dan'er used? In such a large black pool, what on earth did she...

"What, what, what is the black pool?" Rong Rong asked, having never heard of it.

He replied: "The black dirt pool is a derivative of a dark secret method. It should be the dark secret method used by Chu Dan'er. It is called 'blood refining'. It uses flesh and blood to refine it into energy, and the residue of flesh and blood It will turn into black water. When a small number becomes a large number, it becomes a black pool. But at this scale... it should be called a 'black sea'."

"Ah, then are the flesh and blood you mentioned... the remains of spiritual beasts? Then this place is... equivalent to a piece of corpse water," she looked at the black water, her face turned pale, and she felt more and more like the cremation of corpses. The remaining residue is then mixed into water... The more I think about it, the more disgusting I feel. I don't know how many corpses of cockroaches, ants, bedbugs, and spiders are in the water... vomit...

"It's just the remaining materials for blood refining. It doesn't have any power at all. And look," he pulled out the long sword and dipped the tip into the black pool. When he took it out, there was not even a trace of black water on the sword. , it's really like cutting a sword on the colloid, "This kind of black water does not stick to the body,"
