Gao Han got closer and realized that the entrance to the cave was not as dark as it looked from above. There was a soft light coming from inside, and small groups of light gathered together to form a strong light. If it hadn't been deliberately blocked, the strong light would have come out long ago.
"I think we may have accidentally found the treasure trove of swallowing eels." Gao Han raised his head.
Zhongli Tingzhou walked behind him, saw the light inside, and smiled meaningfully, "It should be the treasure house of their leader."
If they were not rich, it would be difficult for them to find this place.
It is neither far nor close to the base camp of the Devouring Eels. After falling into the lake, ordinary spirit refiners have no extra energy to look for treasures.
Once something happens here, the devouring eels in the base camp will react immediately.
But they never expected that Gao Han used the formation to temporarily block the fluctuations here.
Only spiritual weapons and array weapons can do this. If it is a magic weapon or array weapon, it will be discovered immediately.
Fugui, who couldn't wait any longer, dived into the small cave.
He pounced on those shiny crystal cores, eating them almost one at a time, and soon ate several.
Gao Han carried it out, and Fugui immediately picked up a few crystal cores with his claws and brought them out together.
"You can eat as much as you want when you get out, but just bear with it for now."
Then he said to Zhongli Tingzhou, "Do these swallowing eels like crystal cores so much? Where can they collect so many?"
Gao Han dug up the crystal cores in the cave and found a pile of them like a small hill. These must be the result of numerous mutated creatures with awakened intelligence.
Zhongli Tingzhou found some things that looked like bones around him. "I'm afraid most of them were soul refiners who were dragged to the bottom of the lake by the devouring eels."
The bottom of the lake was littered with the corpses of soul refiners. Some were still fresh bodies, while others had been dragged down by the devouring eels before they arrived, having died not long ago, and some had already rotted.
However, without exception, all the things these corpses had carried with them during their lifetime were emptied out by the devouring eels.
In addition to these crystal cores, there are also some miscellaneous things.
Gao Han didn't look at it carefully and put them all into the Yayoi Ring.
"Let's go, it's time to find the Devouring Eels at base camp."
Gao Han removed the formation equipment and the smell of blood dissipated quickly.
As the two were getting farther and farther away from the cave, the roar of the Devouring Eel King came from deep in the lake.
There were also waves of sound coming from the water.
After hearing this, Fugui rehearsed the content of the sound waves, divided the spirit beads evenly into several piles, and sent out several team leaders to radiate from the cave to the surrounding areas, with two teams heading in the same direction.
This direction is exactly where they are, but it can also be guessed. After all, after they have dug up the opponent's lair, they must run away, and there are only a few routes.
"I have a suggestion. Can you feel the strength of this Devouring Eel King?" Gao Han turned around and asked.
"It's at least level twelve." Zhongli Tingzhou said confidently, "It should be no problem to defeat it."
Gao Han believed that he would not joke at this juncture. "In this case, let's lure this swallowing eel to the land. I will go up and set up the trap, and you lure it up."
"Okay." Zhongli Tingzhou roughly knew what he wanted to do and supported his decision unconditionally.
Gao Han left wealth to him.
Zhongli Tingzhou refused. "I feel more at ease if it follows you. We just need to lure the Devouring Eel King up. We don't need it to show us the way."
Gao Han hesitated for two seconds, "Okay, then you should be careful."
The two men split into two groups.
Gao Han used Fugui's hand to shake off the devouring eels that were chasing them and returned to land.
He took out six spiritual tools from the Yayoi Ring.
These six spiritual weapons represent his current highest level of weapon refining. Using the principles of the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, he separated the spiritual weapons into five attributes representing gold, wood, water, fire and earth. The remaining one is the core of the formation and has no attributes.
A spiritual weapon without attributes is rare, but he still doesn't know how he refined a spiritual weapon without attributes.
He once saw a kind of formation tool in a book on formations. This kind of formation tool used the five elements to set up the formation and required spiritual tools with multiple attributes, but the center of the formation had to be a spiritual tool without attributes.
This spiritual weapon without attributes actually combines multiple attributes together.
It is difficult because almost no instrument master can successfully refine multiple properties together.
Gao Han put away his messy thoughts and quickly looked for several optimal points for setting up the array. He buried the spiritual weapons with five attributes and placed the array eye without attributes at the midpoint.
After all this is arranged, all that remains is to wait for Zhongli Tingzhou to lure out the Devouring Eel King.
Gao Han stood at the edge of the lake where he had been dragged to the bottom of the lake, watching the water surface go from calm to slowly shaking, creating circles of ripples.
With a whoosh, countless black tails emerged from the water and attacked him.
Gao Han wielded the sharp blade, wielding each black tail softly. The black tail left the body, jumped for a moment, and then lost its breath.
The tail-broken swallower eel broke through the water and bit down from the top of his head with its sharp teeth.
The extremely hot flames, like throbbing fire snakes, quickly wrapped around each eel. Within a few seconds, these eels were burned into unagi, exuding the aroma of barbecue.
Fugui took the opportunity to grab a piece of eel meat and ate it, but immediately spat it out, leaving his mouth full of the taste of carbon.
More and more eels are dying at the foot of the high cold.
These devouring eels will only obey the orders of their leader, even if it means death, they would rather die than rush into a flame.
The ground then shook violently, and the ripples on the water surface became bigger and bigger, causing waves.
There was a loud bang.
Two figures rushed out from under the lake, blasting the surface of the water with the force of an atomic bomb.
In the sky, in addition to Zhongli Tingzhou's agile figure, there is also the huge figure of the mutated Devouring Eel King, which blocks half of the sky.
Before the mutation, the swallowing eel could reach up to 1.8 meters in length. After the mutation, its body grew tenfold.
The sunlight was blocked outside the body, and night seemed to come early.
Zhongli Tingzhou followed Gao Han's instructions and landed heroically in the formation he had set up.
The Devouring Eel King followed closely behind, but its body was too huge. When it hit the ground, the huge earthquake scared away all the birds living in the wetlands. A large group of mutated birds flew away into the distance, forming a huge crowd.
The Devouring Eel King did not become unable to move after leaving the water. After a while, he stood up shakily.
This devouring eel king had already evolved limbs.
The tough and powerful tail pierced the air, making a sonic boom sound of friction, and pierced towards Zhongli Tingzhou at lightning speed.
Zhongli Tingzhou curled the corner of his mouth, dodged the attack from the Devouring Eel King's tail, and slashed down with force with a flash of sword in his hand.
There was a hint of contempt in the Devouring Eel King's tiny eyes. Its tail was its greatest weapon of attack. Not only was it sturdy, but its speed was so fast that even its shadow couldn't catch up, so it was impossible to cut it easily.
While thinking this, it did not notice that the array devices arranged by Gao Han around it had been activated.
The power of the five elements was injected into the center of the formation, forming an extremely solid cage.
The narrow space instantly suppressed the movement of the Devouring Eel King. Its tail hit the array wall and bounced back, hitting the sword light.
The Devouring Eel King thought its tail was extremely hard, but it broke into two pieces in an instant, and blood splattered into the sky.
The Devouring Eel King roared, coming from its gigantic scissor-shaped mouth, with such force that it easily uprooted the grass on the ground.
Gao Han was outside the formation, somewhat worried about Zhongli Tingzhou, but he remained calm and appeared above the Devouring Eel King's huge body in an instant. A black gas wrapped around the sword and pierced into the Devouring Eel King's eyes, and the black gas went through the eyes and into its body.
"roar!"
The Devouring Eel King's other little eye opened wide in pain, and his body rolled on the ground. Every time he rolled, the ground shook.
The array device was hit by its broken tail and made a crackling sound, and its energy was consumed at an extremely fast rate.
This Devouring Eel King was at least level twelve and was extremely powerful. After a few collisions, the formation device was broken.
Zhongli Tingzhou's sword light left more and more scars on its body.
These scars were stained with traces of black air, which were corroding and devouring the flesh and blood of the Eel King.
Soon, the Devouring Eel King's violently rolling body calmed down and lay motionless by the lake. Only the slowly rising and falling of its body indicated that it was not dead yet.
"What kind of ability do you have? What is this black air? It is so corrosive." Gao Han walked to Zhongli Tingzhou.
Zhongli Tingzhou said seriously: "I have only cultivated this much of my ultimate moves."
Gao Han not only failed to solve the puzzle, but was also confused, "What secret weapon? What you cultivated is a ball of black air."
Zhongli Tingzhou stretched lazily. "This is what happened. A long time ago, there was a handsome young man. He was very intelligent and had a noble bearing. One day, he was walking on the road in the middle of the night when he was suddenly struck by lightning..."
Gao Han interrupted him, "If you were really struck by lightning, I would be very happy."
Zhongli Tingzhou said depressedly: "Why? Do you really want me to be struck by lightning?"
Gao Han said calmly: "I heard that being struck by lightning has a certain chance of making an idiot smarter."
Zhongli Tingzhou blinked and asked, "Baby, are you hinting that I'm an idiot?"
Gao Han looked at him in surprise, "I've said it so clearly, how could it be a hint?"
Zhongli Tingzhou sighed, "You have changed. You were not like this before."
Gao Han said: "People grow up together, and people grow up together."
A smile flashed across Zhongli Tingzhou's bright eyes.
The two of them worked together to deal with the Devouring Eel King.
Gao Han dug out a particularly bright crystal core from its head. It was a level 12 crystal core, and it was the first time he had seen one.
As soon as the Devouring Eel King died, its minions went crazy and rushed out of the water to die.
The two men killed wave after wave, and the corpses piled up like a mountain under their feet.
An hour later, the swallower eels finally stopped jumping out from the bottom of the lake.
There is not much on the devouring eel that can be used to refine magical weapons. Only the meat is pretty good, better than the red electric fish. However, there are too many of them, so Gao Han picked some of high quality ones.
"The corpse of the Devouring Eel King can be collected." Zhongli Tingzhou said to Gao Han.
Gao Han thought he was referring to refining equipment, "Alright, maybe we can extract the bone marrow in the future. The bone marrow of the fish king should be useful."
Zhongli Tingzhou knew that he had misunderstood. "There may be more Devouring Eels below. The corpse of the fish king can scare them away and save us from wasting time."
Gao Han turned to look at him in surprise, "How did you know I was going to go down again?"
"Because I'm your husband." Zhongli Tingzhou puffed out his chest proudly.
Gao Han automatically skipped over what he didn't want to hear, "Aren't you curious about why I want to go down there?"
Zhongli Tingzhou had a 'I'm very considerate' expression on his face: "When you want to say it, you will say it naturally. As a perfect partner, I will not force you to do anything you don't want to do."
Gao Han raised his eyebrows, "Do you have any misunderstanding about the word perfect?"
Zhongli Tingzhou said: "No."
Gao Han chuckled, "Do you remember what I said before that I would settle accounts with you?"
Zhongli Tingzhou was surprised. "Is that true? I don't remember it. Did you remember it wrongly?"
"No, I still remember you saying I was flirting with other women. Now that it's over, we can talk about it. How could I be flirting with other women? If you don't give me an explanation today, I guarantee you won't be able to leave here."
After Gao Han finished speaking, Zhongli Tingzhou looked up at the sky and asked calmly, "What are you looking at?"
"Look at what time it is today and how much time I have left to live."
Gao Han kicked him when he heard that. "I'm not kidding you. Tell me, how come you still have the memories of when you were in white clothes? And why don't you have the memories of when you were in black clothes? If you tell me, I'll trade a secret with you."
Zhongli Tingzhou counted on his fingers, wondering if this deal was worthwhile. "First, tell me what this secret is about."
Gao Han was very calm, "It's related to my life."
Zhongli Tingzhou immediately said, "Deal, who's going to speak first? Why don't you go first?"
"You come first, I don't trust you." Gao Han did not hide his doubts about him.
Zhongli Tingzhou pouted, "Your words hurt me..."
Gao Han sneered, "If I tell you, you'll say it's not worth it and won't tell me anymore. It's because you have so many dark histories that you don't tell the truth. I only have one chance. If you don't tell me, don't expect me to tell you again in the future."
"No." Zhongli Tingzhou sighed, "I was just joking. I'll speak first."
Gao Han crossed his arms and waited for him to speak.
"It's a long story..."
"Then I'll make it short."
"Well, a long time ago, I had a serious illness..."
