Ye Fan is not in a hurry to explore the secrets deep in the crystal veins.
After all, his knowledge of this crystal vein was too limited to risk going deep into unknown dangers that could not be predicted.
Those crystal clear ropes are just the first step to uncover the mystery of the crystal veins!
Ye Fan followed these rhythmic small tunnels and ran out of the forest, only stopping at the edge of the mountains.
Those small tunnels extended to the edge of a small mine that was half a person tall. Ye Fan stood in the distance, eagerly watching.
I saw crystal clear ropes drilling out of the ground and slowly climbing up the small mine.
Then, they trembled violently and excreted black crystal stones the size of a baby's fist from their bodies.
Outside these black crystals, there is also a translucent liquid.
As soon as the black crystal falls on the mine, the transparent liquid quickly corrodes the mine, causing the black crystal to merge with it.
In just a few minutes, the mine grew a small circle.
Ye Fan was surprised by what he saw before him, "The mines outside the crystal veins were actually formed like this. But, what on earth are those ropes!"
Suddenly, the ground around the small mine also trembled, and countless crystal clear ropes drilled out from countless small tunnels in all directions.
They all flocked to the mine, expelling irregular original black crystals from their bodies.
In the blink of an eye, the mine has grown a lot bigger, visible to the naked eye!
A rough calculation shows that there are thousands of ropes that appeared in just these few minutes!
Ye Fan couldn't help his curiosity anymore. He tapped his feet lightly and jumped from the branch towards the mine. When his toes touched the mine, he reached out to fish, grabbed a rope and turned around to jump away.
Suddenly, the back of his hand hurt suddenly, followed by a sour smell that hit his nose.
Ye Fan moved back to the branch, looked down and saw two rows of shallow tooth marks on the back of his hand, and a small pool of translucent liquid scattered on the skin, giving off a faint white mark.
"Ouch!" Ye Fan was surprised.
You must know that although he is only a warrior eight times the limit, his arms have been tempered by the spirit of Wuyuan and have become extremely powerful. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is invulnerable.
Who would have thought that, with Qi Jin protecting his body, this rope could actually break through his outer body defenses and reach directly to the surface of his skin, showing its destructive power!
Grabbing the rope, Ye Fan took a closer look and was stunned again.
Because this is not a rope at all, but a python as thick as three fingers!
This python has a dark body, a flat and long head, and a very strange appearance.
Its scales and eyes are shining with ink, which is difficult to distinguish on the black crystal ore. From a distance, it looks like a black rope.
Even if he holds it in his hand, Ye Fan can only feel the cold temperature of the crystal, and it is difficult to feel the breath of life in its body.
If these black pythons hadn't been moving in groups just now, it would have been difficult for Ye Fan to detect them.
At this time, the black python was already much docile, because the previous bite of Ye Fan not only did not hurt him, but also broke two rows of teeth.
It didn't dare to attack Ye Fan anymore, so it could only keep it in his hand and observe.
"Black python..." Ye Fan frowned, suddenly opened the python's mouth with both hands, and looked at it in front of his eyes.
The mouth of the black python was also dark, and the black snake Xinzi was trembling because of pain.
Ye Fan ignored it, raised his hand and put his whole arm into the black python's mouth.
The black python was shocked and started to struggle immediately. However, as soon as Ye Fan's arm was pushed to the end, the black python was like a sleeve on his hand, unable to escape at all.
The black python wants to cry but has no tears.
This human being is so violent, it simply reaches the pinnacle of its three views.
In the crystal veins, they are the most advanced beings. Unexpectedly, they were penetrated by a human from the inside out!
Just when the black python accepted its fate in humiliation, its watery black eyes suddenly widened, filled with horror.
Because Ye Fan mobilized his energy and spread it inside the black python.
At the moment when the energy spread, the spiritual source inside the black python was quickly extracted.
In just a few seconds, the three-finger-thick black python shrank in size, and its body quickly shriveled up.
"That's true!"
Ye Fan stopped moving his energy and threw the soft black python under the tree.
After landing, the black python glanced at Ye Fan in horror, moved weakly, and slowly got into the nearby small tunnel.
Ye Fan felt the black python's eyes and smiled coldly.
"The little alien beasts not only feed on the spiritual source, but also develop spiritual intelligence! It seems that the black crystal veins in Crystal Island Mansion are really extraordinary!"
As the night gets darker and darker, the number of black pythons on the ground increases several times.
Ye Fan stood on a branch and witnessed the entire process of a small mine that was half a man tall becoming three meters tall!
Time passed quickly, and the sky over the sea gradually became brighter. The black pythons quickly retreated into the small tunnel and returned to the Crystal Mine Mountains through the forest.
They move very fast, almost as fast as the top speed of a moped. It takes less than half an hour to cover a distance of more than ten kilometers.
Ye Fan pursed his lips, picked a bunch of leaves, and headed towards the Golden Coral City.
What he discovered this night was an eye-opener for Ye Fan.
He always thought that the monsters in this world were just legendary existences.
Unexpectedly, he could see these black pythons that feed on spiritual sources in real life.
So far, Ye Fan can determine several key pieces of information.
First of all, the crystal mineral vein is definitely worth exploring. In the core of the mineral vein, the heart of Wuyuan must be hidden.
And the level of Wuyuan Heart here is very high!
In addition, pythons that feed on crystal mines are intelligent and social creatures.
If this is the case, then they must have a higher-level leader!
As for how awesome this black python leader is, Ye Fan has no idea.
Despite the fact that the black python just now was not of a high level, it could not cause much harm to Ye Fan.
However, if you were an ordinary warrior, or even a master who was seven or eight times the limit, you might be easily bitten by a black python without being prepared.
If all the snakes attack together, the dangers can be imagined.
He climbed to the highest point of the hill, looked down under the moonlight, and his expression suddenly froze.
There was originally a flat bottom under the hillside, but suddenly the ground trembled, and black crystal stones emerged from the ground, forming a whole forest of crystal mines.
This crystal mine forest covers a large area, with densely packed sharp crystal stone pillars standing in it. Looking at it, it looks like bamboo shoots springing up after a rain.
The crystal mine forest exudes a strong spiritual energy, like a thick fog.
Ye Fan didn't know the reason, so he stepped into the crystal mine forest.
Suddenly, extremely rich spiritual energy surged into his body.
Ye Fan refused to accept anyone who came, and greedily absorbed them.
In the crystal mine forest, each crystal stone pillar is very regular, with a height between two and three meters.
The part where the crystal pillar connects with the ground is about the same thickness as an ordinary person's waist. The closer to the upper end, the smaller the diameter becomes.
Ye Fan leaned against a crystal stone pillar, absorbing the spiritual source inside it, and wanted to explore its special interior.
At this moment, the ground suddenly trembled with a "rumbling", and then two round beams of golden light lit up in the dark cave.
Ye Fan felt a very strong aura coming from the cave, his heart tightened, and the corners of his eyes twitched.
"what?!"
With Ye Fan's current state, he would actually feel palpitations because of this aura.
He quickly looked over and saw a huge snake head coming out of the cave!
The snake's head was covered with crystal clear scales and was about the size of a truck. Its upper and lower jaws were slightly open, and two rows of sharp fangs were turned outwards.
Its eyes emit sharp crystal clear light, just like two large crystal clear lanterns.
The five- to six-meter-long snake is constantly spitting outwards, and the tip of its eight-pronged tongue can move up and down, feeling the change of smell in different directions.
The most surprising thing is that there are two horn-like meat crests on its head, which are pointed and long, very weird.
Just when Ye Fan was stunned, half of the giant snake's body had crawled out of the cave.
The crystal-clear giant snake arched its body and looked around.
Then, the giant snake opened its mouth and sucked in all the spiritual energy condensed around it.
The two huge lantern-like eyes narrowed slightly, as if they were enjoying themselves very much.
It twisted its body, made a hissing sound, shook its head around, and then retracted into the cave.
As it left, the valley floor trembled slightly again, and a "hissing" sound resounded throughout the forest.
Immediately afterwards, countless black pythons gathered from the mountains and forests, crawling towards the crystal pillars at the bottom of the valley like a sea tide.
Ye Fan was horrified when he saw this, and quickly mobilized his energy to wrap up his whole body, and then hid behind a big rock.
The black pythons didn't notice anything strange about him, and they all walked around his body, twisting and moving forward.
Ye Fan looked around and saw that there were a huge number of black pythons in the valley, all densely packed together.
They tumbled and piled in the valley bottom, climbing up to the remaining crystal stone pillars.
A black python as thick as a thigh was coiled around a crystal pillar. It opened its mouth and bit hard at the top section.
There was a crisp "click" sound, and a large piece of black crystal was bitten off by the python.
But the next second, the crystal pillar trembled slightly, and new crystals condensed out.
The black python climbed down with the crystal in its mouth, found a place and swallowed the crystal.
Immediately, its body emitted a black halo.
After a few minutes, the light dissipated, and the black python crawled towards the periphery of the crystal veins.
In the valley, yellow fluorescence flashes continuously.
The light came and went, very dazzling.
Each black python will swallow the black crystals that emerge according to its own size.
For example, the first big python swallowed a large piece at the top, while the last little snake only swallowed a small piece at the bottom.
These black giant pythons have very strict rules and regulations for eating, and the whole process is orderly.
Three hours later, all the black pythons retreated from the valley.
Ye Fan figured out the situation of the black pythons outside the hills just now.
It turns out that after these black pythons swallowed the crystals, they went to the outskirts of the hills to spit out the remaining stones they had absorbed.
If he guessed correctly, another mine would appear outside the crystal veins later!
However, what really made Ye Fan's heart palpitate was the huge black snake!
