Chapter 35: Mutation

After that, there was no fork in the road, and the team continued to move forward, and the resistance of the rat swarm encountered became stronger and stronger.

Even people like Ye Chen, who have little experience in exploration, know that most of the rats' nests are in front.

Turning an abrupt corner, the scene ahead is terrifying.

Although the visual distance of everyone is limited, it can still be seen that there is a huge karst cave in front of them.

The cave is filled with a dense network of rat demons, all of whom seem to be females, some of whom have cubs under them.

Is this finally breaking into the rat demon den?

Almost when Ye Chen and the others broke in, the rat group also discovered them.

After countless "squeak" screams, groups of rat demons pounced on them.

Zhao Guang applied for seriousness and directly removed the Zen staff behind his back.

"Stand against the wall! Get ready to defend! Old man Yan, take out your set of formations! ”

Old man Yan, who had always had no sense of presence in the team and had almost lost his life before, quickly took out a deck of array boards and array chess, bent over and began to quickly arrange around the crowd.

From time to time, he took out one spirit stone after another to lay it, and a formation that covered seven people actually took more than ten spirit stones to lay out.

Ye Chen had only seen the formation before, but he didn't know anything about the principle, so he stared curiously at this time, and found that as the last spirit stone of the old man Yan was laid, a cloud of black smoke floated out of thin air around everyone.

The black smoke seemed to be only somewhat obscuring their vision from the inside, but the rat demon outside couldn't avoid the black smoke and avoided it directly.

The black smoke blocked most of the rats that pounced on them, and this time the rats could threaten everyone by more than half, and the pressure was reduced by more than half.

But it was not completely blocked, leaving some gaps for the rats to come in, but they were easily killed by everyone.

"This formation is quite useful......

Ye Chen became interested all of a sudden.

The formations he had seen before were all those grounded formations within the sect, which could not be seen or touched, and were far less intuitive than the more intuitive feelings brought to him by this "black smoke array".

Zhao Guang took the opportunity to throw out a piece of rune paper for illumination, and the entire inside of the cave immediately brightened up as day, allowing everyone to see the distribution of the rat demons behind.

After having the formation, the pressure on everyone was reduced by more than half, and only according to the formation, the people in the back row were responsible for cleaning up the few rat demons that attacked from the gap in the formation.

Ye Chen and the others seized the opportunity and began to throw spells towards the denser group of rat demons in the distance.

For a while, the entire cave was on fire, and the dense swarm of dead rats also brought a disgusting smell of burning.

The battle lasted a full quarter of an hour, and at first glance, it seemed as if the monks had taken the upper hand, and the rat demon had only come up to die in vain.

But in fact, only Ye Chen and the others knew that it was not a matter at all if it went on like this.

Some of them have already run out of mana and run to the side to meditate and recover, and the mana recovery pills on everyone's bodies have also been eaten.

But the rat demons outside have not decreased at all, and a group of people will come back after a group of deaths, as if they are endless.

Even though the monks have been taking turns to recover mana, the speed of mana recovery cannot keep up with the consumption.

If this continues, everyone is afraid that there is only one option left: retreat.

Otherwise, when the mana is really exhausted, except for Zhao Guang, who is physically cultivating, can still fight, the others are afraid that they will be torn to pieces by the rats in a few clicks.

"Now I can only go to the location of the Rat King."

Zhao Guang is the most experienced, and he is also the calmest at this time.

"You guys stay here first, and I'll go find the rat king in the rat colony."

"I'll send a signal when I find it, and then you can attack with all your might at my position."

His voice was quite resolute, and there was a hint of hatred in his eyes.

He didn't say how he would find the Rat King, or what he could do to get out of the way when he attacked him.

You know, the spells thrown by the monks are indiscriminately attacked......

Ye Chen was in awe, only feeling that he would never be able to do this level of adventure and sacrifice if he were replaced.

The other monks didn't know what to say when they heard this, and the children of the Zhou family blushed even more.

He was still engaged in infighting because of some trivial things before, and compared with Zhao Guang's selflessness at this time, the whole person seemed even more stingy.

I saw that Zhao Guang didn't know what secret method he used, and he turned into the unpredictable appearance of a red man with a red body, and rushed out waving a Zen staff.

He immediately ushered in the most violent attack of the rat swarm, and the whole person was instantly submerged in the rat swarm.

Through the black fog and the vast swarm of rats, Ye Chen couldn't confirm Zhao Guang's state at this time, he could only roughly know that he definitely hadn't fallen, otherwise the noisy rat cries would have subsided.

Another quarter of an hour passed, and just when everyone's mana was almost exhausted, Zhao Guang's eye-catching roar finally came from among the rats.

"Here I am!"

Everyone was awe-inspiring, and they all squeezed out the last of their mana and threw spells desperately over there.

Those who have a spirit rune even took out the spirit rune, although it is expensive, but the spirit rune that is instantly activated and does not need to consume much mana can play the greatest role at this time.

Under the bombardment of countless spells and spirit runes, the swarm of rats in that area was instantly blown into ashes, and after a while, a fat rat with golden retrievers came out.

It squeaked twice, and the eyes that looked at everyone were full of hatred like humanity.

This is the Rat King!

This thought flashed through everyone's hearts, and before they could make a move, they saw a figure like a blood demon appear behind the Rat King.

It's Zhao Guang!

"Drink!"

Zhao Guang roared angrily, and the Zen staff in his hand brought a circle of golden light, and the staff slashed down, directly splitting a large crack in the ground around the soles of his feet!

The rat king couldn't dodge, so he directly flew this split, and a large mouthful of blood spurted out in the air.

Zhao Guang took advantage of the victory to pursue, the whole person moved so fast that he didn't look like a burly man at all, and the Zen staff was split down one after another, not only blasting away the other rat demons that were blocking along the way, but the last staff directly smashed the head of the rat king into the ground.

"Woo......"

The Rat King had just appeared on the scene, and he was directly killed.

I didn't even have time to use the slightest means.

"Is it so strong......"

Ye Chen was so shocked that he smacked his tongue.

Before, he felt that Zhao Guang was powerful, so powerful that he didn't look like a fourth-level Qi refining cultivator at all.

Although the combat power of the Qi Refining Period Body Cultivation is already more than that of ordinary law cultivation, it is somewhat outrageous to exceed it by so much.

As soon as the Rat King died, the group of rats directly panicked, and they didn't care about attacking Ye Chen and the others at all, and they fled and disappeared in a few breaths.

Zhao Guang barely stood with a Zen stick at this time, and his whole body had already escaped from that red state, but countless small wounds were shattered, and blood flowed for a while.

Seeing this, Ye Chen and the others were about to step forward to help, when at this moment, a group of figures suddenly appeared from the other side of the passage.

"Hahaha! Finally, with the power of the Rat King, your hole cards are consumed. ”

"Zhao Guang, I see how you run this time!"
