Chapter 968: Robbers Blocking the Way
As Yi Cheng and the others deepened, the number of miners encountered decreased, but the number of demonic crystal beasts encountered increased.
Fortunately, the level of these demonic crystal beasts is not high, mainly the fifth and sixth levels, and the seventh is rare, and the eighth order has appeared five or six times, but the ninth-order demonic beasts have not been at all.
According to Wood, ninth-order demonic beasts are generally in the deepest part of the mine, and it may take them hundreds of years to reach that area.
Normally, a team like Woodwin would not go to that kind of place, unless it was someone who had a Perfection monk in front of them.
Although the deeper they go into the Dao, the more they will benefit, but the Woods know that the Dao is not something they can go to, and what they are engaged in is a risky thing, but it does not mean that they will choose to do something that lives and dies.
In the seven or eight years since entering the mine, they have encountered no less than twenty or thirty dangers, and although there have been no major casualties, three of their companions have been killed by the surprise attack of the Demon Crystal Beast.
This kind of thing happens every time, so the crowd doesn't back down because of it.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that Wu Deyun suddenly stopped, Yi Cheng asked with some curiosity.
"Look at the marks on the stone wall in front, there should be someone who has found a relatively rich ore vein, so this section of the mine cave is sealed, we can't get by, dare to occupy the ore vein here, we can't afford to provoke it, hey, if you take a detour to other places, you will have to walk back for at least another half a year!"
Hearing this, a cloud cast over everyone's hearts.
"How long is this vein of theirs?" Yi Cheng asked.
"It's hard to say, according to my estimate, the ore veins in this place will not be too big, and it is estimated that it will be seven or eight days away!"
"Can't we negotiate with them, let's just borrow a road?" Yi Cheng was reluctant to take a detour, because this detour would not know where Lu Dao would go, and his destination would be different.
"Hey, I'm afraid that this won't work, it is generally estimated that there are more than ten Mahayana monks or even a perfect monk who dares to occupy the veins like this, let's go up, if we encounter some domineering, we will all be arrested as slaves, then it will not be cost-effective, this kind of thing is not uncommon in this underground world."
Yi Cheng frowned, this is indeed a problem, although he is almost the same as dealing with a one-fold consummation monk now, but the strength of the other party is not very clear, Xiao Wu can now deal with a one-fold consummation at most, even if they can remain undefeated, they can't kill all the way through like this.
"Brother Yi, I know that you have a fixed destination, I just looked at the map in my hand, and when we came out, we all studied the general route before coming out, otherwise it would be a big trouble if we couldn't find the exit for a while.
Let's take a detour from here, at most, it will be less than a year, and it will not be far from our destination by then, so it is safer, so it is better not to risk it! ”
Seeing Yi Cheng's hesitation, Wu Yun immediately put forward his opinion, to be honest, he really didn't want to part with Yi Cheng and the others, these two Mahayana monks not only did not ask for anything in return, but also protected them for free, where to find such a good partner, and with Yi Cheng and the two, their danger would be reduced a lot.
"Well, okay, let's take a detour!"
Yi Cheng thought about it for a while, and decided not to break through, firstly, the strength in front of him is unknown, and secondly, he does not know how many such things he will encounter in the future, so it is impossible to break through every time, what kind of survival do you want in this, strength and luck are essential, and this kind of patience must be cultivated slowly.
"Whoa!"
Just when Yi Cheng and the others discussed the way out and were about to turn around and go the same way, the stone wall behind them was suddenly knocked out of a gap, Yi Cheng and the others were stunned, thinking that it was another sneak attack by the Demon Crystal Beast, but they found that it was a group of demons who came out of it.
This group of people was led by three Mahayana monks, one mid-stage and two early-stage, and behind them were a dozen or so Tribulation period monks.
This group of people appeared like this, naturally because the people who came were not good.
"What do you mean, fellow Daoists?" Wu Yun's face changed, but he didn't panic, and the three Mahayana were not enough for them to be captured.
"Hehe, of course I'm looking for some magic crystal flowers, and I'll take a few slaves back by the way."
The monk in the middle of the Mahayana period was smiling, but he had a big head on his short figure, and he was looking at this side with bloodthirsty madness in his eyes, and the people behind him were also gearing up, ready to make a move.
"The acquaintance put down his weapon and raised his hand to surrender, hehe, after digging the veins here for Lao Tzu, let you go, otherwise there will be no mercy!"
Another lean, triangular-eyed man spoke immediately, but no one believed him.
"Just because you people dare to speak out, there is still a chance to regain freedom when you become slaves, brothers, slaughter them!" Wood Yun is well aware of the tricks of these people, and now there are only three Mahayana and more than a dozen Tribulation Periods, which is not an advantage for them, but they must be resolved quickly, otherwise once these people's accomplices appear, it will be really dangerous.
"I don't know how to lift, hehe, second brother, you guys can do it too!" The dwarf smiled, shouted behind Yi Cheng and the others, and rushed over with his subordinates.
When Yi Cheng and the others heard this, they were also taken aback, looked behind them, and heard a noisy footstep from far and near.
"Rush over, quick!"
Woodwin no longer hesitated, and rushed to the dwarf group first.
But the people behind them didn't seem to be far away, and after a few breaths they saw another group of people coming behind them.
This group of people is not much different from the group just now, but the leaders are a late Mahayana and a middle Mahayana stage.
"Little Five, you go and deal with the short man, and the two guys in the back will be handed over to me."
Yi Cheng gave an order to Xiao Wu, and rushed behind him with people.
At this time, Wu Dao and the others also knew that it was a desperate time, and none of them wanted to be slaves here, it was definitely a life worse than death.
"Ha Lu Ha
The bald old man in the late Mahayana period was burly, and his body refining technique was definitely not weak.
Yi Cheng knew that if the people here hadn't been physically strong, they would have died in the mouth of the Demon Crystal Beast, so they didn't dare to be careless, and used all their strength to smash a punch at each of the two Mahayana monks.
Because the spiritual power and demonic qi can't work, the immortal body and the golden body of all saints that are easy to become cannot be used, so they don't dare to hold it up now.
He was also followed by the ten Crossing Periods, and at this time, one by one, they wielded the tenacious tools in their hands and slaughtered the people on the other side.
"Bang Bang Bang !!"
"Jingle Bell!"
Yi Cheng now felt as if he was fighting with the ruffians and hooligans in the secular world, brutal and violent, but he could only rely on the strength of his body.
"Bang! Bang! ”
Yi Cheng was one against two, but he did not fall behind at all, and after two punches, the two Mahayana monks were pressed and beaten by him.
But these people are all physically strong, and Yi Cheng can't kill them in a short time.
However, the number of monks around him did not have an advantage, and there were soon casualties.
On Xiao Wu's side, he was alone against two early Mahayana monks, and although Wu Yun couldn't defeat his opponent, the short man, he was not defeated quickly.
The battle soon fell into a stalemate, Yi Cheng frowned, two people had already died during the tribulation period around him, and the rest were even more dangerous.
"Damn it!"
Yi Cheng scolded and smashed his fist at the bald man.
