It is dark and deep, like the mouth of an abyss.
One by one, the creatures took the initiative to jump into this "giant mouth", and then entered the passages one by one, their figures hidden in the darkness.
Zhou Qing and the other person randomly chose a direction to move forward and did not go with Yuan Fang.
Because Yuan Fang never went down into the cave.
A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. The Yuan family has no shortage of people to explore the cave, but he does not intend to take the risk himself.
The last time creatures poured into Black Mountain in large numbers, Yuan Fang and other important disciples of various families did not take the risk.
Several core figures from other forces came down to the cave this time, but Yuan Fang was the exception.
After going to the county town many times, Zhou Qing had an understanding of the status of the second young master of the Yuan family in the Yuan family.
He was being trained by the Yuan family as the next head of the family, and was different from the likes of Jinshui and Huang Mingri from the Golden Dragon Martial Arts School.
As they moved forward, Zhou Qing and the others came to the fog again.
The fog has become extremely thin, and you can even see the scenery on the opposite side.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
The sound of stomping on the ground was heard, and Zhou Qing saw a wild beast rushing out from the passage on the other side of the fog, directly crossing the last thin fog without being affected at all.
“It turns out these wild beasts came from deeper in the cave.”
A wild beast at the Viscera Realm was directly killed by the two men. Zhou Qing tried again to reach his arm into the fog, and something unexpected happened.
The thin fog actually dispersed, leaving a path, as if allowing Zhou Qing and the others to enter.
Zhou Qing looked at the hand, which was the one that held the moon.
This thing has this effect? It seems to be related to the cave.
After crossing the foggy area, Zhou Qing discovered that the cave behind looked a little different.
There were some messy lines on the ground and the walls of the cave, but it was hard to tell what they meant.
There are still many passages crisscrossing each other, like a maze.
Even here, his mental strength was suppressed and he couldn't probe far.
After walking for a while, Zhou Qing and his companion discovered a nest on the wall of the cave. A wild beast rushed directly towards them from the nest.
The appearance of this wild beast is quite strange. It is actually a tiger with a turtle shell on its back, no ears but two long horns on its head.
"The internal organs are at the highest level!"
The monster is quite powerful, but it poses no threat to Zhou Qing and the others.
After getting rid of it, Zhou Qing went to check out the beast's den.
The beast's den was even stranger. The messy lines from before were present in large numbers in the den, and there was also a stone platform inside.
The aura of wild beasts on the stone platform is extremely strong. It can be inferred that the strange tiger just now was perched on the stone platform before it was alarmed by Zhou Qing and the others.
"What's this?"
Bai Ruoyue found a protruding stone next to the cave and pressed it down.
Then, the lines on the earth walls of the passage began to glow slightly, and a faint light curtain appeared between the cave and the passage, separating the two places.
But not long after, the light curtain shattered and the lines dimmed again.
This scene gave Zhou Qing a strong sense of déjà vu, which made him think deeply.
"These wild beasts were probably raised as pets in the beginning." Zhou Qing said, "Is this cave a place for raising animals?"
He could imagine that in the distant past, there were savage beasts living in such dens.
As long as they press the stone, they will be trapped inside and unable to act recklessly.
When the people of Tianming Sect need them, they will be released and they will play the role required by Tianming Sect.
There was nothing left in the beast's den, so Zhou Qing and his companions set out again, and discovered more than one beast's den on the road ahead.
Some of them are home to wild beasts, while others are already empty.
But what is the same is that they all have stone platforms and those strange patterns, and they all have the control stone for "opening and closing the door".
The two also discovered spiritual plants, next to which lay the long-rotted corpses of wild beasts.
“It’s so empty and so complicated.”
After walking for quite some time, Bai Ruoyue sighed.
This place is indeed unreasonably large, with intricate passages. A mortal would probably be trapped to death in the cave.
"roar!"
At this moment, a lion's roar sounded, shocking people and attracting the attention of the two.
They followed the sound and found a giant five-colored snake. The snake's tail was like a lion's tail, and its teeth were not like those of ordinary snakes. Instead, they looked like human teeth.
In the cave behind the fog, all the beasts Zhou Qing and his companions encountered looked very strange, as if they were pieced together.
This five-colored giant snake was gnawing on two corpses with its head down. Judging from their clothes, they were actually members of the Yuan family.
This is the price of exploring secret places, blood is everywhere.
"A bone-refining beast." Bai Ruoyue said with murderous intent in her eyes.
Ever since she experienced the hunt in Black Mountain, she no longer had any favorable feelings towards snake-like beasts.
"Bang!"
The lion's tail shook the earth, and the five-colored snake swam directly towards Zhou Qing and the others, opening its bloody mouth covered in blood.
"court death!"
Bai Ruoyue didn't even retreat, but rushed forward, and Zhou Qing followed closely.
"boom!"
A wave of air swept out, dust rose up, and true energy splashed.
But the deeper you go into this cave, the stronger it becomes, and it can withstand bone-refining-level battles without much damage.
After a collision, the two men figured out the strength of the giant snake and began to refine its bones.
With such strength, he dares to attack them actively. He is simply courting his own death.
But the next moment, the five-colored snake's eyes suddenly gleamed with intelligence, and it turned around and ran away without any desire to fight.
"What's up with this stinking snake?"
Bai Ruoyue was surprised, but without any delay, she immediately chased after him.
Seeing this, Zhou Qing formed the Yang Earth Fire Seal, and surging Yang Fire surged out, burning the snake's body. Suddenly, there was a continuous lion's roar, and the big snake struggled in pain and could not run anymore.
I originally wanted to use you to hone my martial arts skills, but you insisted on running away.
Why are you pushing me!
Bai Ruoyue glanced at Zhou Qing with resentment, and then she said uncertainly: "This snake's spirituality seems to be higher than other wild beasts?"
"right."
Normally, even the bone-refining beasts are stubborn and have no intelligence.
The five-colored giant snake is definitely no match for Zhou Qing and the others. It is normal for it to run away after the fight.
But it turned around and ran away after just one confrontation, which is totally unreasonable.
The two of them did not display any power that could crush it and make it unable to resist.
Zhou Qing took back the Yang Earth Fire, and the big snake had turned into a roasted snake. In just a moment, it was burned beyond recognition by the Yang Fire, but there was still a glimmer of hope.
Bai Ruoyue chopped off the big snake's head with a sword. Zhou Qing sensed something and cut the snake's head open again.
A bean-sized, moon-white, irregular, crystal stone appeared in front of the two.
"What's this?"
“The cave beast we killed before didn’t have it.” Zhou Qing picked up the stone with his sword and looked at it.
"Is it unique to the cave beasts in the Bone Refining Realm, or is it due to the race of this species of snake?"
There is a power in the stone, which is not strong, but when you hold it in your hand it makes you feel exceptionally sober and lucid.
"show me."
Zhou Qing handed over the stone and threw out a ray of yang fire, which burned the snake's body to ashes, leaving only the snake's bones.
This is how he dealt with the corpses of all the cave beasts he encountered along the way.
The beasts here look strange, and for a time traveler like Zhou Qing, it is easy to think of them as the products of experiments.
Taibai has no shortage of wild beast meat, so it is better not to eat this strange thing, as it will only take away some of the wild beast's essential parts that can be used to forge weapons.
Suddenly, footsteps were heard from the right of the two men, and then four people walked out from another passage.
"Zhou Qing? Haha!"
"Golden water."
Zhou Qing narrowed his eyes slightly. The visitors were from the Golden Dragon Martial Arts School. One of them was the man who had spoken disdainfully to him when he went to the county town last time, looking down on Jin Shui, who was from Heiyun Town.
With his status, he is also the core of the Golden Dragon Martial Arts School.
However, exploring caves has risks as well as benefits.
As the heir of the Yuan family, Yuan Fang is a relatively stable person and will not take risks easily.
On the contrary, there are naturally people who are willing to take risks to explore the caves, after all, there are obvious benefits here.
"Is this the number one genius in Black Cloud Town?"
There was a woman next to Jinshui, who looked quite charming. She looked at Zhou Qing twice.
"He's quite handsome, but I don't know if his abilities are as great as the rumors say."
Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)
Zhou Qing looked at them expressionlessly and said to Bai Ruoyue:
"Keep going inside."
"Stop!" Jinshui shouted.
"There were wild beasts here just now, right? Tell me, what did you get?"
"Bring out that stone so I can examine it."
Zhou Qing was speechless. Jin Shui was just as Yuan Fang said. He liked to bully people from small places.
I had originally planned not to pay any attention to these four people and let them go, but I ended up pushing myself into a desperate situation.
"Brother Jin, I'm afraid the two of them are quite powerful. That woman should be the daughter of Pavilion Master Taibai. Rumor has it that she has the strength of the Bone Refining Realm."
A tall young man reminded Jin Shui, and it was obvious that he didn't want to have a conflict with Zhou Qing here.
There are people like Jin Shui in the Jinlong Martial Arts School, and naturally there are normal people as well.
"What a joke." Jin Shui sneered, "How could a shabby martial arts school in a small place produce such a genius?"
"Senior Brother Zhang is extremely talented. He has already reached the pinnacle of the Internal Organs Realm. He knows the difference between the Internal Organs Realm and the Bone Refining Realm best."
Finally, Senior Brother Zhang glanced at Bai Ruoyue and said, "Although Zhang has reached the pinnacle of the internal organs, I dare not say that I have the power to refine bones."
"There are many ignorant people in the countryside, and it's normal that they have no vision."
"Do as Junior Brother Jin says, and I promise not to hurt you."
Zhou Qing shook his head helplessly. If Bai Ruoyue wasn't here, he would really like to say a few words of C language.
"If your brain isn't very smart, read more books. Reading makes people wise." Zhou Qing said.
"If there is water in your head, then go live in Tianyang County for a while. The temperature there is very high, and maybe you can dry up the water."
"A good dog doesn't block the road. Do you understand this principle?"
"How dare you say such nonsense!" Jinshui's expression darkened.
"I just wanted to see what you've gained, but it seems I need to teach you a lesson."
"Brother Zhang, take the stone from that woman."
As Jin Shui spoke, he took a step forward and went straight towards Zhou Qing. He was at the minor stage of the Internal Organ Realm.
"It's your own way to death."
He swung his fist with a steady step, the force was so strong that the air exploded and the whistling sound pierced the eardrums.
When the two fists collided, Jin Shui's eyes immediately bulged out and his face turned bloodshot. When he was about to be knocked away by Zhou Qing, Zhou Qing grabbed him with one hand and punched him directly in the chest again.
"Bang!"
Jin Shui flew out horizontally, was knocked more than ten meters away, and fell heavily to the ground, coughing up blood.
On the other side, Senior Brother Zhang hadn't even had the chance to attack Bai Ruoyue before all this had already happened.
The three were shocked and angry. They didn't expect Jin Shui to be defeated so easily.
Zhou Qing glanced at Jin Shui, who was howling in pain and struggling to get up.
"I met you outside the county town today, and from you, I did see what a genius from the county town looks like."
"With such strength, it's disappointing to be as weak as a chicken."
"Nothing more."
Zhou Qing repeated what Jin Shui had said to him last time.
"How dare you act so violently in front of me!"
Senior Brother Zhang attacked angrily and shouted at the same time: "Attack together and take them down!"
"I've been waiting for you!"
Bai Ruoyue snorted coldly, and shot out like a sharp arrow, swinging her sword directly at Senior Brother Zhang.
The other two rushed straight towards Zhou Qing with a fierce momentum.
Although the tall young man was reluctant to start a conflict with Zhou Qing and the others at first, things had come to this point and he had no choice but to make a decision.
As they were both from the Golden Dragon Martial Arts School, he had to take action even if he was unwilling. His identity determined his position.
The sword shines brightly and is extremely powerful.
Zhou Qing's eyes narrowed. These were actually two masters who had reached the level of internal organs.
In this way, Jinshui still has the lowest realm among the four, but he is the most arrogant.
[Taibai] Hengkong, this top-grade martial weapon will naturally not be at a disadvantage when facing other weapons.
The soldiers are extraordinary, and the most important thing is that their leader is even stronger!
"when!"
The sound of the weapons clashing could be heard far away. The two people who were at the great perfection stage of the internal organs realm faced Zhou Qing together, but they were still at a disadvantage.
His arm felt numb and he took a few steps back. The blood in his body was churning and he felt extremely uncomfortable.
"How can a warrior who has just entered the internal organs realm be so strong?!"
Senior Sister Li exclaimed, her voice full of disbelief.
Zhou Qing said nothing, but stepped forward, his sword flashing fiercely and piercingly.
He wants to have a good look at the genius of the county town today!
"ah!"
A scream was heard from the other side.
I saw that Senior Brother Zhang, who had just given instructions, had his arm cut off by Bai Ruoyue, and there were several bloody holes on his body. He looked extremely miserable.
Seeing this, Zhou Qing knew that Senior Brother Zhang had not lied and was an honest man.
He really doesn't have the strength to refine his bones.
Very good, you have the courage to confess the fact that you are a sucker.
But reality will not reward him for his honesty.
The difference between internal organs and bone refining is that the former can be killed easily.
Senior Brother Zhang was frightened by Bai Ruoyue's killing intent and turned around and ran away.
Zhou Qing bent his bow, drew his arrow, and shot it out with a bang. The arrow was faster than a man and pierced directly through Senior Brother Zhang's chest, causing the man to fall to the ground with a bang.
Even with his ultimate strength at the Zangfu realm, he would ultimately be defeated in a head-on battle with Zhou Qing, not to mention being severely injured by Bai Ruoyue at this moment.
There is no possibility of escaping from the arrows from the sky.
During this period, Bai Ruoyue also changed direction and attacked the other two people quickly and efficiently.
Zhou Qing and Bai Ruoyue showed extremely high tacit understanding and excellent cooperation.
He turned around and swung his sword again. The tall young man had already been greatly frightened and hurriedly retreated, but was directly knocked down by Zhou Qing.
As for Senior Sister Li, she had already been subdued by Bai Ruoyue.
All this happened in just a few takes.
Zhou Qing looked down and said calmly:
"genius?"
"It's just the most basic condition to fight me."
I discovered my husband cheating on me not long ago, and I broke down. We had arguments and fights, and he tried to keep me, but we ended up getting divorced. Now my ex-husband and the mistress are teaming up to take revenge on me and take away all my property. I'm ready for a fight to the death. Just give me a monthly ticket, and you can watch me fight my ex-husband and the mistress!
