"My lord, I have searched all this area, and there is no broken white mud, and there is no other trace that looks like that left by the lady. ”

Zhu Yan walked along the big pit of black algae mud for a while, and then turned back to the distance.

During this period, Ye Dingxi has been looking at the black algae mud in the big pit and the squid that never stops repeating their actions.

"This pit is very strange, judging by the speed at which these squid squeeze out the ink, even if the pit is not filled, it will not maintain the height of the thin layer forever, so it can be seen that the bottom of the pit should be open. ”

"Where does it lead?" asked Zhu Yan.

Ye Dingxi shook his head, but his eyes had a very complicated glimmer, "If we have lost the clue here all the way, it means that this pit of black algae mud must be the last place to go east, so ......"

"Lord, what do you mean, you want to dive down to the bottom of the pit to have a look?!" Zhu Yan has followed him for many years, and many times he can figure out his thoughts with one look and one sentence.

"Hmm. ”

Ye Dingxi took a few steps closer to the pit, but this time, their movements attracted the attention of those squid.

Especially the largest black squid, staring at the two of them motionlessly with its big protruding eyes, as if it was a little more conscious than the numb and mechanical walking dead just now, and it was ...... Wary!

"My lord, if we go any further, we may cause an attack from the squid swarm. Zhu Yan reminded.

Ye Dingxi glanced coldly at the squid group above the pit, who had all stopped moving towards them, and at some point there was a long black whip in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "If they don't allow us to get close to the pit, it proves that there is a problem below, and I have to go." ”

Grunt

Suddenly many tiny bubbles swelled around them.

Ye Dingxi continued to walk forward, and found that the squid that had originally gathered in groups had dispersed separately, surrounding the pit like a protective circle, and those bubbles came from the swing of their tentacles, as if some force was pressing towards them.

"Zhu Yan, be careful!"

Ye Dingxi admonished, and directly threw out a whip.

With a snap, those bubbles shattered together, and I have to say that the power of this long whip turned into dragon tendons is indeed amazing!

But it was at this time that the largest black squid led two long-bodied squids to rush over.

Whew!

Dozens of wooden vines flew out, and Zhu Yan had already stopped in front of Ye Dingxi, his arms turned into wooden branches, and the rattans rushed away like spirit snakes, quickly wrapping around the torsos and tentacles of the two long-bodied squid, imprisoning them in place.

Although the black squid was unconscious, its movements were extremely agile, and when the vine branches were dancing, it had already risen in the air and stretched out a few towards Ye Dingxi

Only stout tentacles.

Syllable!

Ye Ding's eyes froze, and the whip suddenly startled, and the black long whip was like a swimming dragon, causing a long wind to vibrate at the bottom of the sea.

Immediately after, a crack appeared on the tentacle that was the first to reach for him, like a quick knife slashing diagonally, although the gap was extremely deep!

In the blink of an eye, the crack broke open completely, and the tentacles as thick as an adult man's torso fell to the ground with a clatter, turning into a mass of black rotten flesh emitting bursts of thick black mist.

It's just that this black squid is a ghost cricket, which is an unconscious walking corpse, and although Ye Dingxi's whip broke one of its tentacles, it couldn't make it deter and retreat.

At this time, I saw it stretch out a few tentacles and struck Ye Dingxi left and right!

"Lord, be careful!"

Zhu Yan exclaimed, but he was entangled by the two long-bodied squid, and his arms were almost out of control.

His whole person was forcibly dragged up by the two squids, and flew in the air with his arms, and he could only rely on the control of the vine branches to contain the two squids, but he was no longer able to prevent more squids above the pit, and he was waiting for more squid!

Seeing that the situation was like this, Ye Dingxi knew that the enemy was outnumbered, and they had no chance of winning, so they could only attack skillfully, so he concentrated his eyes, dodged in a few steps, blocked the tentacles of the black squid, and then violently swung out a long whip and slashed at the long-bodied squid on Zhu Yan's left.

This whip, compared to the one just now, multiplied by five times the destructive power!

Before Zhu Yan could react, he heard a snap in his ear, and the long-bodied squid on the left side suddenly froze, and between the whip marks on the door of his head, the flames visible to the naked eye were rushing, and his entangled left arm was suddenly loosened, and he saw that the squid began to break open from the middle of his head, and his body melted in half like butter cut by a hot knife, and then fell on the sea sand.

Similarly, streams of black mist were pouring out from the middle of the body that had split diagonally in half.

Relieved, Zhu Yan reacted quickly, imitated the way of the lord, used the vine branch as a knife, and ran up and down through the body of the huge but sluggish long-bodied squid, stabbing and cutting its belly, and the thin branches broke through the squid's head, bringing up a series of black mist splashing like mud!

After getting out of trouble, Zhu Yan was about to help Ye Dingxi, but he heard a loud shout.

"You jump into the pit first!"

Without waiting for a word, Zhu Yan had already turned around suddenly, and jumped into the pit while the other ghost worms were attacking towards Ye Dingxi!

The top of Ye Dingxi's head was already black, and the figure of those squid alone was enough to crush him, not to mention the dense tentacles, standing below, he could even hear the sound of countless suckers opening and closing, getting closer and closer......

That's it!

He abruptly reversed course towards the only left seam

The gap ran wildly behind it, rushing towards the coral grove from before.

I don't know why, but the ghost crickets who have been touched to the consciousness of attack rushed to catch up, and followed in the sky behind Ye Dingxi, and continued to stretch out their tentacles that constantly spewed venom towards him!

At the same moment, there was a muffled buzzing sound not far away, as if something heavy had suddenly opened slowly.

Ye Dingxi saw the opportunity, raised his hand and swung out a whip, wrapped the tentacles of the leading black squid, and fell towards the cold light that was slowly shining.

Bang!

A loud bang was enough to shake the entire ruins of the Dragon Palace.

The cold light was like a gentle wave, crawling up the squid's body little by little, and it suddenly quieted down, as if it was covered by those fine halos, and it seemed to be ...... Petrifaction.

At this moment, the other ghost beetles also stopped attacking, and they floated above the coral where Ye Dingxi was hiding, as if they were hesitating.

Taking advantage of this time, Ye Dingxi had quietly hid behind the coral, looking up at the group of ghost worms being illuminated by the cold light one by one, and then like a black squid, petrified in mid-air, no longer making the slightest movement.
