Watching the frightened mountain rats in front of him flee into the wilderness, Qingyang breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that his estimation is still very accurate, a group of one hundred and ten frightened mountain rats does not pose much danger to himself, but this is almost his limit. If there are dozens more in this group of startling rats, you will have to ask the Iron Arm Spirit Monkey or the Alcoholic Queen Bee to come out and help.

The group of startling rats stopped themselves here, indicating that their nest was not far away, and they tracked down the injured startling rats for this moment. Now Qingyang's true qi has not bottomed out, and he has only suffered some minor injuries on his body, his strength has declined and is considered too much, and he still has the strength of a battle, so he naturally can't be delayed, so he chased in the direction where the frightened mountain rat fled.

The underground mine extends in all directions like a labyrinth, Qingyang firmly locked the leading second-order startling mountain rat with his divine thoughts, but he was not afraid of losing his way, the startling mountain rats seemed to be frightened by Qingyang, and they couldn't organize defenses, and occasionally encountered a few in the way, and they were solved by Qingyang casually.

The speed of the startling mountain rats is very fast, but Qingyang's speed is not slow, with the strength of his late stage of qi refining, it is still easy to track down a second-order startling mountain rat. After chasing a stick of incense about a long time, he finally blocked the group of startled mountain rats in a narrow mine.

This cave is different from other mines, the entrance is extremely narrow, the space inside is not very large, judging from the traces excavated around, it seems to be the masterpiece of the mountain rats, and more importantly, there are a lot of stones piled up in this cave.

Qingyang has a lot of spirit stones on his body, so he naturally won't admit it, anyway, the stones of the spiritual light are the low-grade spirit stones commonly used by monks, so big a pile, there are at least hundreds of them.

On the side of the pile of lower-grade spirit stones, there are also two spirit stones with stronger spiritual power, which contain dozens of times more spiritual power than other lower-grade spirit stones, needless to say, this is definitely a medium-grade spirit stone.

After nearly twenty years of contact with cultivating immortals, at most, Qingyang had thousands of spirit stones on his body, but all of them were low-grade, but there was not a single medium-grade spirit stone, which showed how rare the middle-grade spirit stone was, but I didn't expect that this time, in this place, two medium-grade spirit stones could be found.

Qingyang couldn't help but be overjoyed, not because of how valuable these medium-grade spirit stones were, but because they were rare and more useful than lower-grade spirit stones.

For example, if a monk recovers his true qi, the effect of the lower grade spirit stone is much better than that of the pill, and if the situation is critical, the use of the spirit stone can greatly improve the efficiency. But the aura contained in the lower-grade spirit stone is limited after all, and it is no problem for low-level monks to use it, but it is more troublesome for high-level monks to use it, and high-level spirit stones are needed at this time.

Another example is the control of the puppet, the low-grade spirit stone can only support the consumption of the low-level puppet, the high-level puppet requires much more energy, and the lower-grade spirit stone can't support it at all, so it is necessary to install a high-grade spirit stone, and the puppet must stop and replace the spirit stone every few times, right?

The value of the spirit stone in front of them is not high, but it also shows a problem, that is, there must be a spirit stone vein nearby, and as they predicted before, there are high-grade spirit stones here. As long as you kill this group of startling mountain rats, find the spirit stone vein nearby, and go back to receive the reward of the spirit mining academy, this mission will be almost complete.

The spirit stones are all stored here, no need to guess, this must be the nest of this group of startling mountain rats, the second-order startling mountain rats seem to have been forced to a desperate situation, ready to come to a ruined boat, blocking the entrance of the mine, and sending out a crazy scream towards the surroundings.

The rats were commanded, and no longer fearful, and gathered from all directions, and in a short time a large group of rats gathered at the edge of the cave.

There are more than a hundred of these startling rats in total, dozens of them were killed in that huge mine cave before, and then they fled all the way, and more than a dozen were casually solved by Qingyang, and now even if they call back all those who are wandering outside, the number is less than eighty.

In a vicious battle experienced before, Qingyang has not fully recovered, and this number is more difficult to deal with, but it is not impossible to win, so Qingyang gritted his teeth and launched an attack.

For Qingyang, this battle can only be won and not defeated, he has spent so much effort, and he has been delayed for seven or eight days, just for this moment, how can he fail and return? And he had to fight quickly, because he was worried that if the movement was too big, it would attract other startling rats, and when the time came, thousands of startling rats would rush over together, and even three heads and six arms would not be able to cope with it.

This battle is even more unloseable for the startling mountain rats, they have all been killed by the enemy to the door of the lair, it is a battle of the dead race, how can you not fight hard?

The frightened mountain rats forgot to be afraid, and attacked Qingyang one after another, such a charge that was not afraid of death caused great interference to Qingyang, and several of them were rushed in front of the frightened mountain rats who were not afraid of death, and their eyes were almost gouged out.

In the blink of an eye, the corpses of more than 30 startled mountain rats fell on the ground, but the remaining startling mountain rats did not escape, and the battle became more and more intense. Qingyang wanted to recover his true qi, but the constant attacks around him didn't give him a chance at all, and he couldn't free his hands all the time.

Seeing that Qingyang's true qi was about to bottom out and his physical strength was exhausted, and his movements were not as neat as before, the second-order mountain rat couldn't help it, and suddenly his body jumped up from the ground and came towards Qingyang's pavement.

Qingyang had long been on guard against the second-order startling mountain rat, and seeing that he was finally willing to show up, so his mind moved, and another magic sword suddenly rushed out, forming a dazzling sword formation with the previous three magic swords, and a large sword shadow blocked between the second-order startling mountain rat and Qingyang.

This sword array is the four-element sword array that Qingyang has refined in recent years, and it is more than twice as powerful as the three-element sword array, but it consumes more true qi and divine thoughts to use, and Qingyang does not dare to use it easily. The leading second-order startling mountain rat was relatively timid, and had been hiding behind the rat group before, but now that it had finally appeared, Qingyang decided to use the four-element sword formation to fight for a one-hit kill.

The power of the four-element sword array was amazing, and the second-order startling mountain rat crashed into the sword shadow, and before he could let out a scream, it turned into a burst of blood rain, and even the seven or eight startling mountain rats that followed behind were also affected by the sword array, and were cut into a pile of pieces, and countless people were injured.

Although the four-element sword formation had already been refined, this was indeed the first time to fight, and Qingyang did not expect the power of the sword formation to be so great. The rest of the startling rats were also frightened by the power of the sword array, and immediately stopped attacking, and the entire battlefield suddenly fell silent at this moment.
