In the car, everyone's emotions were still agitated.
For a long, long time in the past, they grew up in such a comfortable and peaceful environment. At that time, in their eyes, the world was like this, with the sky high and the clouds wide, and the mountains and seas clear and flat.
And when they studied martial arts, were admitted to universities, and even showed their extraordinary talents, they realized that...the earth they were originally familiar with was actually only the tip of the iceberg.
Hidden behind it is a vast and mysterious world.
Caves!
Burrow creatures!
Song Shushi, the "world-beating spear", Chun Yujin, the "born general", Liu Taihang, the "Thousand Army Sword", Luo Kedi, the "Thunder Lion", Qi Mo, the "Tianfeng Sword"...
These names are very strange to ordinary people's ears, but in that more mysterious world, they can be called legendary existences.
It is precisely because of this group of people who fearlessly embark on this road and bear risks that ordinary people cannot bear, that the outside world will be colorful and wonderful.
And the moment they sign their names on the application documents and confidentiality contract, they also have to walk on this thorny road, holding up the sun in the shadows, so that light can shine into the world as always.
Maybe... they will die on the battlefield in the next moment.
Or maybe, they will become legends one day.
Take "Chun Yujin" who guards the Crypt of the Gods as an example. Rumor has it that he graduated from "Galaxy University", the highest institution on earth, entered the planetary level at the age of 15, and broke through to the star level before he was 40!
This kind of cultivation talent is already terrifying, and his most legendary experience is... he got a precious opportunity in the "Cave of the Gods" located in the original European continent. Since then, his strength has soared rapidly. In just 20 years, he has grown from Hengdong.
Entering the third level of star level into the universe level.
Among the top people on earth today, he is the youngest cosmic-level powerhouse!
He also has extremely strong commanding abilities and is even known as a "born general". He is not yet a hundred years old, but he is already a very important figure on the earth. He was invited to join the military and lead his troops to guard the "Cave of the Gods".
At this time, these young people in the bus are all martial arts graduates from major prestigious schools in Chang'an City. After signing the application documents, they are trained with special funds from the Ministry of Education and are eligible to join the special training class for martial artists in Chang'an City for free. Only those who successfully pass
Only after passing the assessment of the special training class will you be allowed to enter the cave battlefield.
The minimum level of the "Second World" trial tower is the 16th floor, and the physical strength level exceeds 15 times. This is the assessment content of the warrior special training class.
This trip to the cave battlefield is to enter the cave world and fight with cave creatures in a prescribed area. Only after passing this actual combat assessment will they be qualified to go deep into the cave world for adventure.
Unlike military warriors, these warriors are placed under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Education. The organizational structure is relatively loose and the degree of freedom is high. The harvest in the cave world will also belong to themselves, and the country and other organizations will acquire it.
Whether to sell or not is not mandatory.
They understand——
After entering the cave world, there are dangers and endless possibilities.
As for the young ones, they are willing to fight to defend their homeland, fight for humanity, and shoulder the mission entrusted to them by this era.
…
"Teacher Zhang, what is the name of the cave we are going to now?" asked a male classmate who looked very sunny.
The two people accompanying them were Yuan Xin, the vice president of Chang'an Martial Arts University, and Zhang Qide, a teacher from the Chang'an Warrior Special Training Class.
Zhang Qide calmed down, turned his head and looked at the front of the bus, and then said: "We are now heading to the sixth cave discovered on Earth 13 years ago, named 'Tiannan Caves'."
"The Tiannan Caves are close to Jiangnan City. The preliminary assessment of the danger... among the seven major caves that have been discovered, it is temporarily ranked fifth. With the assistance of the military, we will conduct a practical assessment for you."
"Students, you have all successfully passed the 16th floor of the trial tower. You are our elite university warriors in Chang'an City. I believe that as long as you can exert your due strength, you will definitely be able to pass the actual combat assessment!"
Zhang Qide said.
However, it can be seen that there is still a trace of worry in his eyes.
Successfully passing the 16th floor of the trial tower, with a power level exceeding 15 times, these students all possess strong strength and have extremely rich combat experience in the virtual world, but... this just proves the difficulty of the actual combat assessment.
These cave creatures are much scarier than monsters!
This is because... unless it is a large-scale battle like the army, ordinary warriors simply cannot survive in the cave world.
If you start fighting, you must not drag your feet. Once other cave creatures are attracted to block the battle, or even the cave leader (blood mantis) appears, it will definitely be a nightmare.
Of course, as long as they can exert 80% of their strength in actual combat, I believe it will be enough to pass the assessment.
The assessment content is divided into two types, one is to kill the specified number of cave creatures, and the other is to successfully survive in the specified area for two months.
Just satisfy one of them.
"Don't worry, Teacher Zhang." A student said loudly.
Other students also echoed.
"We're ready."
"We will definitely come back with good news."
"Okay!" Zhang Qide looked at the serious expressions of these young people and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, then nodded heavily.
…
The vehicle drove for more than ten minutes before it stopped. Vice Principal Yuan Xin said in a low voice: "Get out of the car now and check your belongings."
Everyone got out of the car one after another.
What comes into view is a military-controlled area covered with wire mesh. Even the metal material is D-grade metal "dazzling gold".
There is a post at three steps and a sentry at five steps.
If you look down from a high altitude, you can see various fortifications built, laser cannons, special detection and monitoring instruments, and fighter planes on standby at the airport.
Soldiers or warriors armed with laser guns or cold weapons, under the deployment of the command center, maintain the order and security of this important location.
Just the military power that can be seen from the outside is extremely powerful, which further proves the great power that this national machine can exert when it is running.
Tiannan Cave!
What is guarded here is the entrance to the "Tiannan Caves". Once there is an abnormality in the creatures in the cave, this will also be the first level on earth.
Many students looked at this heavily defended forbidden area and felt threats and pressure. The laser turrets began to rotate and aim at them.
Two school-level officers at the door were followed by heavily armed soldiers. The strength of the two officers was above the stellar level, and they carried a fierce momentum.
"A special training class for warriors in Chang'an City?" one of the officers asked. After receiving a positive answer, his eyes became much warmer.
"Documents, admission order!"
Yuan Xin took out his ID, the school's application documents, and the admission documents approved by the military department, and the other party checked them one by one.
After everyone's inspection was completed, the officers and other soldiers with resolute faces all gave a military salute to the students!
"We are going here to defend our country, to fight for the destiny of mankind, and to return victoriously!"
"Triumph!"
The sonorous and powerful roar stirred up everyone's emotions again. None of the soldiers lowered their arms until they watched them enter the depths of the base.
Even in the Great Nirvana era, when the national order faced the most serious challenges, the army still served as the main force, establishing war bases and guarding the peace of mankind.
Not to mention that now, the social order has not been affected much.
Perhaps, with the exception of the military, whether other warriors with extraordinary strength enter the cave battlefield is entirely voluntary.
However, the important value system that depends on "social contribution" and the simple emotions of being a human being have unwritten standards in the hearts of many people.
Only when you fight your way into the cave will you show your true colors as a hero.
…
The group of people walked along, and even though they hadn't entered the cave yet, they already felt the heavy responsibility, and they were a little silent for a while.
They continued to move forward with the team.
Along the way, inside the base, you can see tight defenses with sentries everywhere. From time to time, you can see some small groups of troops evacuating from the depths of the base.
Their combat equipment was stained with green blood and exuded a fishy smell. Many of them were injured and even physically disabled. However, with current medical technology, as long as they did not die on the spot, they would have a chance to recover.
while walking.
Under the leadership of the base personnel, they came to the inside of a metal hall. The hall was empty and the only eye-catching thing was a tightly fitting alloy door, which was made of E-grade alloy.
The gatekeepers are two military warriors who exude a heart-stopping aura. Through the intelligent optical brain, it can be judged that their strength has reached the ninth level of the star level.
"Behind this is the door to the cave world." Yuan Xin explained in a low voice.
The students' eyelids twitched. Although there was nothing unusual, they could feel a strong sense of crisis the moment they saw this door.
"Lao Yuan, are these the new recruits from your Chang'an City?"
"Well, it looks pretty decent." One of the older guards glanced at it and said with a smile.
This was not the first time that Yuan Xin had done this kind of thing. He was relatively familiar with them and had a brief chat with them.
Because it is the first time for these students to come to Tiannan Caves, according to the rules, the corresponding documents must be checked again.
While inspecting, he said: "I know you young people are very motivated, but after entering the cave, you must be careful in everything to save your life so that you can kill the enemy!"
Even though he was chattering, everyone could hear his concern.
"Okay, you go in, Lao Yuan will lead you to the designated area for the actual combat assessment." The guard put his hand on the metal door and was about to open it.
Everyone was feeling a little nervous and a little excited.
Just at this time——
"Woo, woo..." A piercing siren suddenly sounded throughout the war base, high spotlights lit up, and the expressions of the two military warriors guarding the entrance to the cave instantly changed.
"This is...a level one alert?"
"Could it be..."
"Oh My God!"
They did not continue talking, but hurriedly looked at Yuan Xin and others, and said urgently: "Now, quickly leave the Tiannan Cave Base. There are some unexpected situations in the cave. Strong people will come to deal with the situation. Your assessment
Plans on hold!”
"Understood!" Yuan Xin also understood that the situation was urgent and led them away quickly along the safe passage without having time to explain to the students.
After leaving the war base and getting on the bus again, the bus started immediately and the students asked: "Teacher, what happened?"
This thing is so strange!
Even Zhang Qide was a little confused.
"Level 1 alert..." Yuan Xin looked at the military base and said in a low voice, "The last Level 1 alert occurred in the Kirishima Cave 37 years ago. That time was also the first time the earth encountered the universe in the cave world.
Level cave creature."
"It is said that during the exploration of the Kirishima Caves, the military discovered important treasures. However, the enemies they attracted were also astonishing. There were a total of 26 cosmic-level cave creatures, which set off an underground war that affected a wide range of areas.
Cave creature riot.”
"That was the time when Liu Taihang, the 'Thousand Army Sword', was surrounded by the enemy for fourteen days and almost died."
Everyone was suddenly shocked.
No wonder they say that burrows are extremely dangerous. In today's earth, the cosmic level is the top strong person. There are 26 cosmic level burrow creatures... What is the concept of that?
This is really terrible!
They looked at the distant war base, their eyes full of worry.
After 37 years, what happened in the Tiannan Caves this time?
…
At this moment, Tiannan Cave.
"Buzz!" "Buzz!" "Buzz!"
The sound of wings vibrating and chirping was chaotic and noisy, making people's hearts tremble, and the overwhelming green mantises came from all directions.
At this time——
"Tear!"
A thick purple electric light suddenly lit up.
"Tear!"
Densely packed, purple electric light instantly illuminated the dark world, twisting and radiating like electric snakes, one after another across the sky.
"Damn thing!" came an angry roar.
Rumble!
In the center of the green mantis, a purple air current suddenly filled the air, with electric snakes flowing in it, which was clearly the realm of thunder and lightning.
The diffuse thunder and lightning field continued to expand, and thunder and lightning bolts were struck out, like dragons roaring and tigers roaring for a while.
In just an instant, the world was filled with scurrying electric snakes, and a large number of low-level mantises were turned into powder directly under the electric light.
"Boom!" A tall and burly figure instantly jumped out from the insect tide. His eyes were cold and his brows were furrowed tightly.
Phew! Phew! Phew!
The overwhelming green mantises, either from the ground or flying in, began to besiege and strangle him in an orderly manner.
Faintly, one can find red crustacean creatures among them.
"Is my old man Luo so unlucky?" His expression changed drastically, "This time when I came in to explore, I actually encountered a group of blood mantises, including a cosmic-level blood mantis!"
"The fighting power of the blood mantis is more powerful than that of the green mantis, but that doesn't matter. The most important thing is its leadership ability."
This person's name is Luo Kedi, nicknamed "Thunder Lion". He is from the Luo family in Yangzhou City. He is the ninth grandson of Luo Feng. He has second-level strength at the cosmic level. He had a domain when he was at the star level and is now a third-level domain.
.
In today's earth, he can be called a master-like figure.
The official names of Green Mantis and Blood Mantis on Earth are "Cave Creatures" and "Cave Leaders", but for the convenience of naming, many warriors named them based on their shapes and directly guessed their real names.
With Luo Kedi's second-level strength of the universe level, there is nothing to be afraid of the green mantis swarm composed of star level and planet level. However, the cosmic level blood mantis hidden in it is like gangrene attached to the bone.
Let him not dare to be careless at all.
"Ask for help quickly!" Luo Kedi licked his lips and his expression changed slightly, "There is a cosmic-level blood mantis. This is not a good sign. The last time a group of cosmic-level mantises appeared in Kirishima Cave, no blood was seen.
If another group of Mantis figures pop up now, under the leadership of Xue Mantis, my Lao Luo's life will be decided here."
This cave world is vast and endless, and the more you explore inside, you will find that the cave creatures wandering inside become more powerful, and the treasures that exist become more precious.
This time, Luo Kedi explored the cave world as usual, but encountered a cosmic-level blood mantis. He was so frightened that he directly activated the first-level alarm, allowing the warriors and troops in the cave world to quickly evacuate, and sent troops to the earth.
Other cosmic powerhouses asked for help.
This is no joke.
"kill!"
He held a purple-black sword, and the body of the purple-black sword was entangled with electric snakes. Faced with the incoming insect tide, he began a terrible killing, running through the entire insect tide again and again, and green mantises were killed one by one.
Kill.
But……
"Kuhkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!" A green mantis whose body was cut off in half by a purple-black sword actually bit some mutilated green mantis corpses next to it. As it was devoured, these mantises quickly recovered and even became more powerful.
"Not good." Luo Kedi suddenly remembered something, "These cave creatures can evolve by devouring the corpses of their own kind!"
Under normal circumstances, there is no need to worry. The number of corpses that need to be devoured to evolve from the stellar level to the cosmic level is a huge number, but now that the cosmic level blood mantis appears, all the surrounding green mantises are coming in one after another.
In this constant fighting, it is very likely that an astonishing number of space-level green mantises will be cultivated.
"Damn it, damn it!" Luo Kedi's eyes were a little red, he didn't dare to wait here for help from other powerful people on the earth, he just wanted to break out of the encirclement.
But for a second-order universe-level person facing such a scene, it would be difficult to protect himself, let alone break out of the encirclement.
20 minutes later!
"We are in big trouble." Luo Kedi's face turned pale, with wounds all over his face and his pupils trembling.
Buzz buzz...
The insect tide suddenly dispersed, and a red-shelled blood mantis vibrated its translucent wings behind it. Its aura was extremely powerful. It was obviously the cosmic-level blood mantis encountered earlier, and it was no longer hidden.
behind it.
"Buzz!"
"Buzz!"
"Buzz!"
After this long battle, 7 cosmic-level green mantises have evolved, and they are like one body under the leadership of the blood mantises.
According to his experience, 7 green mantises led by blood mantises are more terrifying than 70. In addition, with blood mantises as sharp knives, Luo Kedi suddenly felt that he was in big trouble.
"Kill!" Luo Kedi gritted his teeth and had no choice but to fight!
…
Just five minutes later, Luo Kedi's right arm was broken, his face was pale, and even the force consumption was extremely high. In this battle, he only killed one green mantis.
This still relies on his advantages in weapons and secret techniques.
"If I had known better, I shouldn't have listened to what my father said and practiced martial arts. Really, my childhood wish was to marry 100 wives..." Luo Ke's enemy faced an overwhelming crowd of cave creatures who were attacking from all directions.
, as if seeing himself being swallowed to pieces.
At this moment, he felt relieved.
"Even if you die, kill more!"
Luo Kedi's eyes turned red.
He directly held the knife in his left hand and fought with the green mantis swarms, causing dense lightning to flow between the sky and the earth.
"It's over." He slowly closed his eyes, and from the corner of his eye he could already see... the sharp forelimbs of the cosmic blood mantis, as sharp as a sword, striking at his head.
1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds...
He opened his eyes suddenly, it was not over yet.
"boom!"
A grand and intense sword light lingered in the dark sky for a long time, spanning thousands of meters.
Within this range, all cave creatures were swept away, and even those cosmic-level green mantises and blood mantises were all killed with this sword!
"This, how is this possible?"
Looking at the sword light, Luo Kedi suddenly widened his eyes, his eyes full of shock: "The law of the origin of light, is this the law of the origin of light... Someone on earth has already crossed the threshold of the law?"
According to his knowledge of cultivation, it is not possible until he reaches the eighth or ninth level of the domain to begin to sense the vague fluctuations of the law and begin to understand the law.
Even so, it is still difficult to cross the threshold of the law.
And now someone has actually taken this step?
This is something Luo Kedi, one of the top experts on earth, has never thought of. Could it be... that the ancestors have returned from the universe?
When Luo Kedi looked up, he saw a figure standing in mid-air.
He wore a silver battle armor with simple patterns carved on it, and a helmet on his head. Only a pair of pale golden eyes could be seen, as warm as the sun.
In his right hand is a black ancient heavy sword, which is intimidating.
"...Ninth level of stellar level!" Luo Kedi was stunned.
This guy who killed seven cosmic-level cave creatures with one sword and seemed to have crossed the threshold of the Law of Light is actually only ninth-level star level?
How can it be?
Just as he was about to speak, the mysterious man in silver armor had turned his head, turned into a stream of light, and instantly disappeared from his sight.
This, who is this?
…
After the mysterious man left, he soon appeared two thousand kilometers away.
He took off his silver battle armor, revealing his young face, as if he was just a teenager. A set of military combat equipment appeared out of thin air in his hand, and he began to put it on. The military rank symbol on his body proved that he was a colonel officer.
After the boy changed his equipment and weapons, it was obvious that he was carrying a space storage device.
suddenly--
A figure walked out from behind him.
The man was dressed in black and had piercing eyes. He looked at the young man and opened his mouth, but seemed to be in disbelief and stopped talking.
"Huh?" The young man was very alert and quickly discovered the person's presence.
For a moment, he looked a little shocked and said hesitantly: "Are you...Uncle Luo?"
Luo Feng suddenly laughed, looked at the young man, and said, "I am Luo Feng, can you tell me your name?"
The young man looked at this uncle that he had seen in the video, and felt a little strange in his heart.
