Tan Chao came to his senses in an instant and said: "This method is not bad, it seems that Teng Man's dense Cheng dù can let us go down the road." Even if a small part of it is far away, it is a big deal to dig the passage a little longer. It's much faster than digging a tunnel out. ”

Cheng Yang smiled: "I think so too." ”

Liu Xiyue said at this time: "Lord, this ...... I'm afraid it took a lot of time, right? Even if this section of the river is only seven or eight hundred meters long, it will take no less than five or six hours. ”

Cheng Yang said: "Another passage is to be found, but you can't give up here." When Tan Chao went in to dig the road for a while, we couldn't help much. You and Xiaobai stayed here to guard, and I went back the way I came, and continued to explore westward to see if I could find another passage. ”

Liu Xiyue said: "I can't do anything if I stay here, or I will accompany you to find a new passage, right?" ”

Cheng Yang smiled and said: "That's not necessary, with my speed, I can reconnoiter a circle within a range of more than fifty kilometers in a maximum of one or two hours, if it exceeds this range, even if there is a channel in front of us, we will have more time to come and go, and it is not very meaningful." ”

After Liu Xiyue thought about it, she also agreed with Cheng Yang's statement.

At that moment, Tan Chao came to the side of the cliff alone with a quarrying tool, and directly picked up the hammer and chiseled towards the mountain wall.

This open road is not the same as quarrying, quarrying requires cutting the stone into a regular size and shape, and the open road only needs to cut a passage in the stone wall, the latter is naturally much easier than the former, and the speed is naturally much faster.

I saw Tan Chao's hammer go down, stone chips flew one after another, and huge rocks rolled down into the river.

Less than a minute after the first rock rolled into the river, Tan Chao saw huge black shadows swimming back and forth under the water. With the help of the dim light, he could still roughly see the cold gaze of those dark shadows.

Looking at these black shadows, Tan Chao had a creepy feeling, he might have thought that Cheng Yang was a little exaggerated before, but now that he saw these huge figures, he felt that Cheng Yang's statement was not accurate enough. Although he couldn't be sure what kind of strength these guys had under the water, judging from their size, none of these guys were worse than Xiaobai.

Fortunately, these guys were hiding under the water and didn't dare to come out, Tan Chao stopped for a long time before continuing to dig forward.

Cheng Yang looked at the periphery for a while. Seeing that Tan Chao was not in any danger, he turned around and left.

Cheng Yang ran all the way down the mountain wall, and he didn't encounter any demonic beasts along the way, although his speed was not as fast as on the official road, but it was no problem to reach halfway.

In an hour and a half, he estimated that he had walked fifty or sixty kilometers, but the mountain walls along the way stood proudly, and there was not the slightest gap for him to pass through.

Although he only explored more than 50 kilometers forward as he said to Liu Xiyue and the others just now, he was a little unwilling to get here. A passage was carved out of the river. It may be able to accommodate a small number of people through guò. But if it is an army of tens of thousands, it will not be able to go from there. Even if the strength of the army members is increased in the future, the speed of their passage is extremely slow.

Therefore, Cheng Yang wants to extend his sphere of influence to the Wucheng area. It's best to be able to figure out a passage out.

Of course, if he can find a territorial altar in the Wucheng area, occupy it, and wait until he has enough stone to build an official road. It's also a solution. After all, the construction of the official road is carried out automatically under the constraints of the rules of heaven and earth, and the rules automatically analyze the closest distance between the two stations that can be passed, so in terms of passable roads. There is not much to think about.

In fact, so far, Cheng Yang has not understood the rules of the official road, and only two of the official roads he built before were across the main city. When these two official roads pass through the isolated area between the main city of Guò city, the official road from Xiangcheng to Suicheng passes directly through the passage between the two mountains, while the official road from Suicheng to Xiaocheng chooses a relatively gentle hillside to cross it.

Cheng Yang didn't know whether the hillside chosen by the official road in Xiaocheng City was considered a passage defined by the rules, because if there was no official road, it would still be quite difficult to pass this place. But Cheng Yang also saw a clue from this, that is, the location of the separation zone of these two official roads is close to the route he explored at the beginning, of course, this may be a coincidence, but it cannot be ruled out that this is an implicit law.

Therefore, it is very necessary for Cheng Yang to find another path in advance now.

However, the truth was the opposite of what Cheng Yang thought, and he continued to run west for more than 20 kilometers, but he still found nothing.

This cliff is too long, isn't it? Could it be that the gods really intend to trap the provincial main city in their area? Or did the gods feel that the provincial main city was a huge threat to the outside world after opening up the passage to the outside world, so they increased the difficulty?

No matter what the situation is, Cheng Yang is powerless to change it now. At this moment, he was nearly eighty kilometers away from the river, and he didn't want to continue exploring. Perhaps, in the north of Wucheng, there is really no passage, or it is possible that this passage is on the opposite side of the river, but this is not something that Cheng Yang can set foot in now.

Cheng Yang returned at a faster speed, it only took him more than an hour to return to the big river, where Liu Xiyue was anxiously waiting.

"Lord, why are you only coming back now? Didn't you just say that you would only go for an hour or two? As soon as Liu Xiyue saw Cheng Yang, her expression was quite complicated and said.

Cheng Yang could understand the concern in Liu Xiyue's words, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I've just walked a little more." However, I was a little disappointed that I still did not find a relatively wide passage, and it seems that we can only make up our minds from this mountain wall now. ”

Liu Xiyue said: "Lord, there is no problem in passing from here, before you come back, Brother Tan has already come back once, he said that this river is not very long, he has already seen the exit, and it is estimated that it will be opened in another hour." ”

Cheng Yangxi said: "So fast? That's a good thing. ”

After speaking, Cheng Yang looked at the time, it was already after 12 o'clock in the evening, and immediately said: "Let's take advantage of the time to cultivate, this daily homework can't be left behind." ”

Liu Xiyue nodded, she also wanted to do her best to raise her professional level.

There have been no demonic beasts here, so it's a relatively safe environment. Even if a demonic beast sneaked in while they were cultivating, they would be able to find out at the first time, after all, there was no such thing as going crazy in the cultivation of this world, and it could be carried out at any time, and it could be interrupted at any time.

Just after Cheng Yang settled down to practice for more than an hour, a figure climbed over from the cliff on the right side of the river, this person was Tan Chao, who had gone to open the road before, seeing that his face was full of joy, it was estimated that he had successfully reached the opposite side.

But when Tan Chao saw Cheng Yang and the others who were sitting on the ground cultivating, the mouth that had just opened closed again. He knew that Cheng Yang had to cultivate every night, and he also knew the importance of cultivation. He believed that Cheng Yang must have known that he had returned now, and since the other party did not stand up to greet him, he wanted to continue cultivating.

At that moment, Tan Chao also sat on the ground and also began to cultivate.

Before dawn, Cheng Yang had already opened his eyes and looked at his increased cultivation progress, which was much less than using the Nirvana Divine Stone to cultivate in Luofeng Town.

Suddenly, Cheng Yang's eyes showed a look of shock, he found a strange thing, this thing was not anything else, but the cultivation progress was a little higher than expected.

Cheng Yang had already calculated before that if he used the Nirvana Divine Stone plus the courtyard effect to cultivate in the territory, it would be equivalent to a cultivation speed of 12.4 times per hour, but now there is no courtyard here, but the cultivation effect produced is still more than 12 times, which is definitely abnormal.

Cheng Yang roughly estimated that the extra effect was at least about 0.3 times higher in the base. If you weren't very concerned about the speed of cultivation, I'm afraid no one would have noticed this problem. After all, compared to Cheng Yang's current cultivation speed of more than ten times, the extra effect was indeed insignificant.

But how can this phenomenon be explained? Cheng Yang couldn't find an answer for a while, because he really couldn't think of any difference between last night's cultivation and his previous cultivation. If there is really any difference, then it can only be explained that last night's cultivation was carried out in the wilderness, and it has always been in the station before.

However, this does not be a reason to increase the cultivation speed, because in the previous life, there were many people who cultivated in the wild, but they did not get any cultivation speed bonus effect.

It took a lot of brains, and Cheng Yang didn't come up with a reason, so he had to keep this question in his heart for the time being, maybe he could get the answer in the future.

Soon, Liu Xiyue woke up, and Cheng Yang asked, "Xiyue, take a closer look, did your cultivation progress last night be more than normal?" ”

Liu Xiyue immediately opened her attribute panel and found that her cultivation progress was indeed a little more than expected.

"What's going on?" Liu Xiyue said in surprise.

Cheng Yang spread his hands and said, "I haven't figured out what's going on for the time being." ”

Liu Xiyue was suddenly a little stunned: "Why don't you know?" ”

In her opinion, Cheng Yang is almost omniscient and omnipotent, and this image has long been ingrained in her heart, but she didn't expect that there would be something that Cheng Yang didn't know about now, no wonder she was so surprised.

Cheng Yang smiled helplessly and said, "I'm not a god who transforms this world, so naturally I can't know everything." It seems that this matter is not clear for the time being, and we will pay attention to it in the future, and after we figure it out, maybe our territory will have unexpected benefits.
