Chapter 279: Gather Together, People Have Their Own Plans, Three Stone Gates, Please Die! (Superior)
Dark Swamp.
A 10-meter-long giant alien insect that looked like a cricket attacked Yi Chen and others with a heavy shell, and then fell painfully into the soft mud in the stream of magic power. Dark green blood flowed from its body, and it made a harsh hissing sound when it came into contact with the mud, and a puff of white smoke came out.
"Everyone be careful, don't fight this alien insect in close combat, its blood is extremely corrosive." With a big hand, He Gongzi took back the golden net covering the insect corpse and reminded everyone carefully.
Everyone was frightened by this and nodded in response.
At this time, a drizzle had begun to fall from the sky.
After nearly a day of arduous trekking, everyone rushed through the swamp under the leadership of He Gongzi and finally came to a dark black tree.
This was a beheaded tree. Three people hugged it together, and the slanting branches stretched out to the sky like the hands of a starving ghost.
There were still traces of being struck by lightning on the top, and some of them had been carbonized.
It was already night, and the thick lichens emitting fluorescence made the trees look eerie, and the raindrops in the sky became bigger and bigger.
After a long comparison, Mr. He couldn't help showing an excited expression on his face.
"Everyone, we have arrived at the Tianlong Cave."
As soon as this was said, the black-skirted female cultivator and the two black-faced men were all shocked and said in unison: "Brother He, is this the Tianlong Cave? Where is the cave?"
The three people said in unison, but Yi Chen heard some different meanings from the tone of the three people, which made him look up and down at the three people.
At this time, he was able to determine that Mr. He was definitely not a good person. Although this person hid well, he still caught a faint malice that he inadvertently exuded.
However, Yi Chen didn't care. The story of Li Zhuang Bairou was not surprising in any world.
But after more than a day of contact, combined with the emotional fluctuations of the black-skirted female cultivator and the three people just now, Yi Chen had a new plan in his mind.
"I thought I was the only wolf in the team, and there wouldn't be other wolves." Yi Chen's eyes flashed with doubt.
He had already noticed that the three of them were worried and uneasy along the way.
"My dear brothers, the Tianlong Cave is far away in the sky and close at hand." Mr. He said with a smile, and pointed at the dark tree without a crown in front of him.
The entrance to the mysterious Tianlong Cave was actually at the top of a big tree with a broken head. If Mr. He hadn't pointed it out, who would have noticed it with the suppression of spiritual consciousness here?
At Mr. He's urging, everyone entered through the gap in the tree crown.
There was a cave at the bottom of the tree crown. Looking inside, it was deep and unfathomable.
After more than ten seconds of free fall, Yi Chen finally stepped on solid ground.
What he saw was a slope extending downward, with narrow stone walls on both sides, with traces of artificial carving.
There are many Buddhist cloud patterns, flying goddesses, Buddha, lotus, and eight tribes engraved on it.
Young Master He summoned a strange fist-sized four-winged firefly from his spirit beast bag. Suddenly, a faint blue light shone everywhere, and the intensive flapping sound of wings came. The insect immediately flew towards the depths of the cave entrance.
Yi Chen, who had been paying attention to the black-skirted female cultivator and the black-faced man, noticed that when entering the cave, the black-skirted female cultivator inadvertently touched the pearl hairpin on her head, while the taciturn black-faced man, Fellow Daoist Bao, secretly rubbed a crystal ring in his hand.
Perhaps noticing that the people behind him were dawdling, Master He suddenly looked back, and the green light of the firefly insects sprinkled on his face, making his face look a little mysterious:
"Everyone, let's go, why don't you leave?"
"The wealth and honor are right in front of us, how can you fail at the last moment?"
The atmosphere in the cave suddenly became a little weird. Under Master He's urging, everyone began to move forward along the ramp, and only the buzzing sound of flapping wings could be heard clearly.
At this time, Yi Chen was already 80% sure that Lian Hong and the two black-faced men must have problems, but he was not panicked at all, and followed everyone forward in silence.
The further down they went, the wider the ramp became. After the six people walked carefully underground for half an hour, at this moment, a dense rustling sound suddenly came from the cave in front.
The sound came from far away and became more and more dense.
With the light of the firefly insects, everyone soon saw the true face of the attacking creatures, which were the giant mantises they had seen before.
The number was overwhelming, and there were many strange knife mantises with purple patterns on their shells, which made Yi Chen's eyes suddenly condense.
He had seen this kind of strange mantis in Lin Yueshen's memory, and Lin Yueshen died in the sneak attack of this strange knife mantis.
"Yueshen, I feel something is wrong. Stay closer to me later and don't rush too far." The round-faced fat man Bo changed his previous playful tone and sent a serious voice to Yi Chen.
"Understood." Yi Chen was frugal with words.
Countless giant insects attacked everyone, and they actually ran out of the momentum of the Zerg in Star Trek. Yi Chen was naturally not afraid of this.
If there were no more powerful alien insects, these things in front of him would not even be able to remove the dead skin for him.
In one word, hard!
However, in order to conceal his presence, he still held Lin Yueshen's spear in his hand.
"Don't be afraid, I'm prepared."
Mr. He didn't seem to be surprised at all by the presence of many giant insects. He took out a red gourd with a pained look on his face, with many strange purple lines on it.
"The Earth Fire Flame, it turned out to be the Earth Fire Flame. Brother He is really well prepared." The female cultivator in black skirt exclaimed, her eyes moved, and she stared at the gourd in Mr. He's hand with a pair of charming eyes.
Earth Fire Flame is a one-time magic weapon that can release a large amount of powerful flames at one time. It is expensive and has extremely limited uses, but it is extremely suitable to be used here.
"Yes, this is it. Dear brothers, please step back!"
Mr. He pinched the secret with his hand, and the red-skinned and purple-striped gourd suddenly floated into the air. The bottle stopper suddenly fell to the ground, and a deep red flame flowed forward quickly like liquid.
Suddenly a smell of barbecue appeared in the air, and even the purple-striped mantis mixed in among the ordinary giant insects could only hold on for a few more breaths.
In the flow of flames that filled the sky, many insects seemed to have received some kind of instructions after the first wave of heavy casualties. They actually clung to each other one by one, forming groups of insects, rolling towards everyone.
After shaking off the charred insect corpses on the outermost layer, the still mobile insects inside struggled and continued to kill everyone.
Fortunately, with the Earth Fire Flame clearing the area, the remaining giant insects were no longer a problem. With the concerted efforts of everyone, led by Mr. He, the defense line was firmly held back by everyone.
"Huh, it's a good thing that brother was prepared. Otherwise, the mana recovery in the ruins of Annihilation would be so slow, and we would have run out of mana after a few more attempts." Lianhong patted the evil on her chest to express fear.
"As long as I can ensure the safety of all my virtuous brothers, it is worth spending even a small amount of money." Mr. He nodded with a smile, but there was an inexplicable meaning in his eyes.
The team moved on.
Yi Chen killed a purple-striped mantis that was still kicking with a shot. Unfortunately, there was nothing unusual about his eyes, which meant that there were no deep red spots on the body of this purple-striped mantis. However, It was a pure bull and horse, so he gave up the plan of continuing to hit the target along the way.
At this time, he was following the team closely, but his mind was far away.
"From the 'little black potatoes' I saw in the desolate wasteland before, to the giant mantis, the purple-striped mantis, and the giant cricket-like insect in the swamp that I met later, what is the end of this Ruin of Destruction? What happened to have so many weird things?”
"Are those mutated bugs formed innately or man-made?"
Yi Chen had used a spear to dissect the internal structure of several giant insects in the forest before, and found that the structure of these giant insects was completely distorted, and the position of each internal organ was different.
The truth was confusing and unclear, so Yi Chen could only bury his doubts deep in his heart.
Just walking along like this, everyone soon came to a rotunda hall with eight stone pillars.
