Chapter 079 Digging out the monster
Meng Xiang and Yan Shi are both strong and have amazing endurance. The hard work in the eyes of ordinary people as digging soil is nothing to them. The ground is like a marmot digging a hole, the soil is turned outward, and a large hole of several feet in diameter continues to penetrate deeper into the ground.
The process of digging the hole was not calm. Meng Xiang and Yan Shi were often attacked by the monster's roots and roots. However, first of all, they were prepared, and secondly, their bodies were extremely strong, and they could not hurt them at all. Therefore, not only did they not interfere with them, they instead allowed them to confirm the approximate location of the monster.
When the pointer of the pocket watch pointed at 3:28 in the morning, after several hours of crazy excavation, Meng Xiang and Yan Shi had already penetrated underground for more than fifteen feet deep.
Just as Meng Xiang transported his true energy to his palms and pressed the soil in front of him and prepared them to go aside, he suddenly felt a lighter in his hand, and then a large area of soil in front of him suddenly collapsed. Unprepared, he fell down with the collapsed soil, and Yan Shi, who was helping him next to him, was not spared.
Fortunately, the process of falling was relatively short, so he soon landed on the ground. As soon as he landed on the ground, the true energy that protected his body suddenly opened outwards, bounced away the soil, and then he put on a defensive posture and finally looked at the surrounding situation.
At this time, Meng Xiang discovered that he was in a huge cave. The cave was flat and round, slightly like an upside-down plate. The highest place from the ground was in front of the left of the top of his head, which was about seven or eight feet high.
The entire cave expands from the highest point to all sides. The edge is about twenty feet closest to it, and the farthest one reaches thirty feet away. At the same time, the higher the edge, the lower the height of the cave, the lower the lowest part is less than three feet.
The entire cave did not look particularly black, and a faint green light flashed vaguely above the top of the cave. Meng Xiang's eyes were very sharp. He could see clearly what was the green light, the roots of the tree and the smaller roots.
At the same time, Meng Xiang also saw a clear view of a black and red monster that kept wriggling, with a large ball of four or five feet in a radius that almost touched the top of the cave. It was composed of countless thin and long roots and more roots.
At the first sight of it, Meng Xiang and Yan Shi immediately concluded that it was an unknown monster who attacked them on the ground and kept harassing them during their digging, because the roots and roots they saw before were so similar to it. No, they should not be said to be similar, but should be said to be exactly the same.
Meng Xiang and Yan Shi looked at each other and walked over to the monsters who didn't know whether they should be considered a plant or an animal. In their hearts, no matter whether there is a place worth exploring in this cave, it is the most necessary to destroy the monsters.
The monster seemed to feel the hostility of the two. Before they could get closer, countless octopus tentacle-like roots were poked out together, some like spears, piercing straight towards them; some like ropes, wrapping around them; and some like whips, whipping at them.
Although the attack methods of those monster roots are different, they all have one common feature, which is fast. In the blink of an eye, they crossed more than ten feet apart and came to them. They were extremely powerful, and there was a sniping sound of hissing air tearing wherever they passed.
Seeing this, Meng Xiang and Yan Shi did not dare to neglect them. They drew out the long sword and cut at the monster roots that attacked him. Relying on the sharpness of the long sword, Meng Xiang cut off the monster roots that were close to him without much effort.
Yan Shi was not so relaxed. Although the long sword in his hand was also obtained through the Refining Finger. It was extremely sharp, but the monster roots were extraordinary and strong. He could barely cut off the thinner monster roots, while the thicker ones were powerless. For a moment, he was a little busy by the large number of monster roots.
Meng Xiang's feet fell apart, leaving a realistic phantom, flashed to Yan Shi's side, and the long swords slashed out one after another, transforming into a white wave of swords, cutting off all the strange roots around him.
After looking at Yan Shi, Meng Xiang said, "Stone, your knife is not good, just retreat to the side first and leave this monster for me to clean up."
When Yan Shi flashed and retreated behind, a green light appeared in Meng Xiang's hand, and a piece of sword light about three feet long was poked out from the tip of the knife. The long sword swung quickly, and the sword shadows were immediately shattered around his body. No matter which direction he attacked, as long as he approached him, the monster roots would be cut into pieces in an instant.
Meng Xiang was as powerful as a rainbow, advancing towards the monster at a high speed, and was invincible for a while. The monster's roots could not stop him at all. Just when he was about five feet away from the monster's body, the monster finally launched a counterattack.
Countless monster roots and roots woven into large nets to cover him, splitting one side and another, and then splitting it, continuously and continuously, as if endless. After tearing the eighteenth big net apart, no new big net flew over, but danger came without warning.
The moment Meng Xiang cut the eighteenth big net, a black giant ball with a diameter of more than one meter hit him, with a whirring wind sound, it was obvious that it should have existed before, but it was just hidden behind those big nets.
Seeing that the giant ball was about to hit Meng Xiang's head, two faint arcs suddenly flashed in his eyes, and the two sword lights crossed, flew towards his head, accurately hitting the giant ball, flashed and cut deep into it.
The next moment, the giant ball exploded and divided into four neat petals. At the same time, Meng Xiang's long sword swung rapidly, and the white sword light swelled, like a roaring sea tide or a blizzard wrapped in a strong wind, gathering into an unstoppable torrent, sweeping towards the monster.
Under the sword lights like a storm, the strange roots and roots instantly turned into countless pieces and flew all over the sky. The distance of five feet was crossed almost in the blink of an eye. Wherever Meng Xiang passed, a cylindrical cavity with a diameter of more than one five feet was left.
Meng Xiang came close to the monster's body. Just as he was about to see clearly what it was, a burst of thud sound suddenly sounded in his earlobe, as if a war drum was ringing in front of him. Although the sound was not very high, it contained majestic force in the low voice. It seemed that every sound was hidden with huge power. He could clearly feel a sense of oppression, as if a big stone was pressed on his chest.
After a moment of silence, Meng Xiang's eyes showed firmness. At the same time, a piece of sword light that was nearly ten feet long appeared on the tip of the long sword in his hand, and then a white light burst out in the sky, as if a blizzard was descending to the world. The area around him, nearly ten feet suddenly turned into a vast white area.
If someone has good eyesight, they will find that all the white light is composed of snowflakes the size of a palm. Each piece is intact, crystal clear and extremely beautiful, making people unable to help but reach out to touch them.
Just as heavy snow would cover everything, whether it was beautiful or dirty. Meng Xiang's sword light seemed to have the same effect. When the white light dissipated, the monster and its monster roots with its fangs and claws disappeared, leaving only a layer of black mud-like dirt. However, Meng Xiang did not relax because the pounding sound like a war drum did not disappear, but became clearer and louder.
Meng Xiang looked at the monster where it was, which was where the dong dong sound came. Suddenly he saw a trace of red light, which made him shocked.
Although he wanted to figure out the situation, for safety reasons, he did not approach him rashly, held a knife in his right hand, and was ready to deal with accidents at any time. He poured his true energy into his left palm and gently waved the place where the red light appeared.
Immediately, a gentle but powerful wind blew by, like an invisible broom swept across, sweeping all the dirt and soil on the ground aside, and at the same time, the hidden secrets were also revealed in front of Meng Xiang's eyes.
After seeing clearly what was hidden under dirt and soil, he couldn't help but be a little stunned. Then he waved his left hand several times, clearing out a large pit about six or seven feet deep in front of him, and completely revealing the hidden secret.
First of all, what appeared before Meng Xiang was a thick tree root, which required at least four people to hug him. According to its sturdity and trend, if nothing unexpected happens, it should be a root of the iron tree in the center of Tiemu City.
The iron tree has many broken roots that are several feet long, and are still swaying. They should be the remnants of the strange roots that attacked Meng Xiang and Yan Shi just now. However, what attracted Meng Xiang the most was not the root body of the tree, but a thing on the root of the tree - a red weird thing the size of a bathtub, beating regularly, and heart-shaped.
When Meng Xiang saw the strange thing at the first glance, he already understood that the sound of the war drum he had heard before came from inside it. But soon a question climbed into his heart: What exactly is the thing growing on the roots of an iron tree?
At this time, Yan Shi also came over and felt very strange when he saw the strange thing. However, just as he was about to speak up and ask, the thing suddenly shone brightly. Then the roots of the iron tree it attached also lit up and emitted a green light. Judging from the situation, the green light was drawn out from the iron tree itself.
With the nourishment of green light, the remaining monster roots growing on the roots of the iron tree grew back to a speed beyond imagination, and reached three or four feet in the blink of an eye. The new monster roots seemed to know Meng Xiang and Yan Shi, and immediately launched a fierce attack on them as soon as they grew out.
Meng Xiang was not polite, and his sword was unsheathed, and the sword light was like snow, cutting off all the monster roots that were still shining with green light. However, he found that they were much stronger than before, and he felt a little difficult to cut, and some light green and fluorescent juice would splash out at the fracture.
What is even more incredible is that as long as the cut monster roots are not broken very hard, they will immediately take root and continue to grow, and attack him and Yan Shi after they fall to the ground.
After Meng Xiang cleared the first batch of re-grown monster roots, the light emitted by the strange thing with the heart-shaped appearance became brighter. Correspondingly, the green light drawn from the iron tree became more and more intense, and the color became more and more intense.
