Yuwen Zhouyuan's team walked carefully in the mine tunnel for a whole day. Tan Zhengping and Old Man Meng discovered more than a dozen monsters one after another, but their levels were not very high. They took care of them easily.
But as they went deeper, they found that the number of monsters in the mine began to increase. At the same time, they discovered that they were lost.
The excavation of the Lingshi mine tunnel in Lingshi Ridge of No Return Mountain was very confusing. There were densely packed roads with forks everywhere. In order not to get lost, they tried various ways to leave a slight direction mark on the wall of the mine tunnel. Logically speaking,
You can't get lost.
But the problem is that the marks they left behind were maliciously touched by someone, or even changed their direction.
This made them immediately alert and did not dare to be careless at all.
Those who would do this are undoubtedly the monks of the Sun Never Sets Cultivation World. Of course, disciples of other sects in the Dongyang Cultivation World are not excluded.
Although they lost their way, fortunately they saved some of the water and food they carried in their storage bags. It was enough for about two to three months. Even if they got lost, it wouldn't be a big hindrance.
"The three corpses are still warm. They should have been dead for less than half an hour!" Tan Zhengping passed a corner and suddenly stopped in surprise. He squatted down and inspected the corpses. He reached out and touched the corpses. Low
He said to the people behind him.
Everyone immediately gathered around them, and Yuwen Zhouyuan immediately flew up to the corpses and took a look.
Judging from the clothing, one is from a small cultivating sect in the Dongyang Empire's Cultivation World, but the other's clothing is different from that of the Dongyang Cultivation World. It seems to be a monk from the Cultivation World in the Sun Never Sets Empire.
Among them was a big man in a green shirt. His body was nailed to death on the two-foot-high mine tunnel with a golden sword. His head was lowered and his eyes were wide open, with a face full of shock and disbelief.
The other two corpses were fighting and hugging each other. Both corpses were somewhat fragmented. It looked like they had been bombarded by at least a dozen spells. They were forcibly chopped to death on the spot by spells such as wind blades and ice arrows.
According to the situation, after the two of them struggled together, the other team members on both sides attacked them fiercely at the same time, and both of them were sacrificed.
There must have been a very short encounter here. The two sides retreated after the battle. The three corpses were left behind, and even the spiritual weapons left on the corpses were not taken away.
The other disciples of the two sects were nowhere to be found and retreated in fear. Or because they were chasing each other, they had no time to pick up these spiritual weapons.
Since the spiritual weapons on these three corpses were still there, and the storage bags were also there, the five of them were naturally not polite, and immediately took off the storage bags, poured out the contents, and divided them among themselves.
Each member of the team was given one or two spiritual weapons, several talismans and several stones.
What Yuwen Zhouyuan received was a low-level spiritual sword.
From the appearance of several corpses, they knew that the real danger was coming! This danger came not only from monsters but also from the killings of various expedition teams!
Everyone suppressed the excitement of finding the treasure and set off again.
At this time, Fang Yu'e took the lead, Tan Zhengping, Old Meng, Han Xuefeng and others were in the middle. Yuwen Zhouyuan was still behind, and they quickly walked towards the depths of the mine tunnel.
Yuwen Zhouyuan followed them slowly, his consciousness alert to the movement behind him in case someone was chasing him.
Yu Wen Zhouyuan came here to explore for nothing else. He wanted to find an environment suitable for his promotion. Intuitively, Yu Wen Zhouyuan felt that he needed a place full of true energy and safe to advance. There must be a place in this spiritual stone mine.
There are places with plenty of Qi, but as for safety, you have to find them.
But what makes Yuwen Zhouyuan depressed is that he has been in the cave for nearly a whole day and still hasn't found the place where the true energy is full. And after seeing the three corpses, he knows that this place is not safe at all, and the danger seems to be heading towards him.
Attack.
Yuwen Zhouyuan now knows that it is not an easy matter to survive for several months in such a mine cave exploration involving nearly a hundred disciples of cultivators from two countries. If he is not careful, the team will be destroyed.
Total destruction, no one left dead.
Yuwen Zhouyuan had to work hard and act cautiously.
The five of them were walking. Fang Yu'er, the leader, stopped and waved to stop everyone. She listened carefully for a while, then her face changed and she transmitted the message to the team in a voice as thin as a gossamer.
"There are sounds of monsters ahead, it may be the monster's lair! Move back!" Fang Yu'e said.
The entire team members were shocked when they heard this and gasped.
The monsters are not scary. Even if a level 3 monster appears, they can work together to kill it. But if it is a monster lair, it will be a bit scary. A large group of monsters swarm up the narrow mine tunnel.
They had no choice but to turn around and run away.
The five members of the team restrained their true power almost at the same time, tiptoed, and slowly retreated, retreating nearly a hundred feet before breathing a little sigh of relief.
Tan Zhengping asked Fang Yu'e, "Senior Sister Fang, what kind of monster's lair is in front of you? How many are there estimated to be?"
Fang Yu'e pondered for a moment and said: "The breathing sounds of about six or seven monster beasts. It seems to be the Broken Mountain Turtle. Ordinary Broken Mountain Turtles are second-order monsters. The cubs are first-order. The Broken Mountain Turtle King may be third-order."
"
After hearing this, Old Man Meng said in surprise: "The carapace of this broken mountain turtle is a good thing. If you kill them, you can refine the carapace into a protective spiritual weapon. At least it will be a high-level defensive spiritual weapon. If you use the spiritual weapon made from this carapace,
Tools, using Earth Escape Technique can save a lot of real power."
Han Xuefeng frowned and said: "This kind of monster is an earth monster. Its carapace is extremely thick and hard. It is difficult to break through their carapace with ordinary spells and spiritual weapons. If we just want to deal with them, we are afraid that it will take a long time."
Take some effort."
Tan Zhengping said with a smile: "In such a small nest of broken mountain turtles, at least one to two are cubs, and three to four are ordinary broken mountain turtles. At most, only one is a third-level broken mountain turtle king. Counting this way, we
There are still some opportunities.”
Yuwen Zhouyuan leaned against the turning point of a mine tunnel wall and watched them from a distance. If the four of them were to clear out the monster lair in front of them, someone would definitely have to guard the back to prevent attacks from behind.
sneak attack.
Naturally, Yuwen Zhouyuan cannot join in.
Suddenly, Yuwen Zhouyuan's heart trembled, and a sense of crisis surged into his heart. He turned around and looked at the mine tunnel behind him.
An extremely dim shadow flashed not far behind the mine tunnel, and then immediately shrank back.
Yuwen Zhouyuan's muscles all over his body tensed up, and he jumped away from the place he was leaning on. He changed his position in the mine tunnel and squatted down. He flipped his hand over and revealed a cold silver sword weapon several inches long.
It had already appeared in the palm of his hand, ready to come out.
In this kind of short-term sudden attack in the mine tunnel, no one knows whether the opponent is strong or weak, so he can only attack with the strongest attack. The first attack will be a fatal kill, and there is no room for him to hold back at all.
Yuwen Zhouyuan suddenly found a stalker behind him and broke into a cold sweat.
After the shadow disappeared, the following team did not appear immediately.
Yuwen Zhouyuan thought for a while and quickly understood that when the shadow came over quietly just now, he probably didn't notice that he was guarding the entrance of the cave. When he got closer, he suddenly realized that he thought there was an ambush here.
He immediately backed away in shock, not daring to act rashly.
Yuwen Zhouyuan secretly complained in his heart that their Yunzi Landmark team was blocked. In front was a monster lair, but behind was a team from an unknown sect.
Yuwen Zhouyuan looked coldly at the passage behind him. The team behind him had not come over yet, and he was probably still hesitating. He thought calmly, and after a while, he gently floated towards Fang Yu'e and others, and made a gesture.
He pointed to the mine tunnel behind.
Fang Yu'e, Tan Zhengping and others were discussing in low voices how to kill the monster's nest. When they saw someone coming behind Yuwen Zhouyuan's gesture, they were suddenly shocked.
Everyone looked at each other calmly, immediately took out their weapons, retreated to the corner of the mine tunnel, and prepared an ambush. They were all a little nervous. After all, this was the first time they had entered the mine tunnel, and were in such close proximity with other teams participating in cave exploration.
They met so close. Maybe, this would be their first bloody battle since they entered the cave.
Fang Yu'e asked in a loud voice: "Are you from the Dongyang Cultivation World or the Sun Never Sets Cultivation World?"
Yuwen Zhouyuan shook his head and said: "I don't know, I didn't see anyone, I just saw a dim light and shadow flashing for a moment. I guess it should be the other party's spy who was walking at the front. He accidentally discovered my aura just now and was frightened away."
We went back. They don’t know how strong we are, so they are probably still hesitating whether to come over or not.”
Everyone waited at the turning point of the mine road for nearly half an hour, but there was no movement at all outside.
"Have they left?" Fang Yu'e and others were a little impatient and wanted to go out and take a look.
"Don't go there." Yuwen Zhouyuan stretched out his hand to stop him and said coldly.
Fang Yu'e frowned, stared at him in confusion and asked, "Why?"
Yuwen Zhouyuan said indifferently: "This is most likely a trap. The other party deliberately left those three corpses and spiritual weapons to lure us into the depths of this cave. Then they blocked the exit from the back. As long as they stick to the outside, there is no way they can
We are not afraid of us escaping. In this way, we have only two ways to go. One is to risk going out from behind, which just happens to hit the ambush they set outside. The other is to continue moving forward and take the risk to clear out the small nest.
Monsters, and as long as they hear the movement, they can immediately kill them from behind. Both of these paths are sure to kill us."
Fang Yu'e was shocked and looked at Yuwen Zhouyuan in surprise. After a while, she said, "What should we do?"
Yuwen Zhouyuan did not answer.
Tan Zhengping sneered and said: "Wait, what else are you doing! It depends on who can't hold it back first and rushes to take action. Don't worry! Let's make a few small ambushes at the entrance of the cave to see if we can trick them.
.”
Tan Zhengping floated to the corner of the cave and placed a demon-binding rope spiritual weapon on the ground. If he accidentally stepped on this rope, he could immediately bind the person who stepped on it and expose him to the attacks of the five of them.
