Volume Three The Battle of the Sea Clan Chapter 397 Xin Yuan
The cave is not big, only about ten feet in size.
Apart from a few stone beds and a few large bags piled aside, there were no other furnishings in the cave.
The first thing Liu Ming saw was a sallow and thin face with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but the sickly-looking face added a hint of grayness.
It was the skinny young man he met when he first entered the underground mine.
At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged on a stone bed in the middle, and the huge iron rod about two feet long was leaning against the stone wall on one side.
This was the first time Liu Ming saw the stick leaving the young man's hands. He couldn't help but be a little surprised, and then looked at the young man up and down.
Only then did I realize that the gray clothes on the young man were now in tatters, and there were still a lot of blood stains on the surface, whether it was from the evil beast or himself.
But looking at how he looks now, he is obviously injured, and he looks quite serious.
And with such strength, he actually suffered such injuries, which shows that he must have experienced an extremely fierce fight not long ago.
Liu Ming almost subconsciously thought of the giant black wolf-like beast outside the cave that was three or four times larger than the surrounding beasts.
Beside him, there were also four men sitting cross-legged. One of them was the person who was recruited by the thin young man with an antidote at the exchange meeting. Although he only had the cultivation level of the early stage of the liquid condensation realm, he and the other
The three of them were all quite powerful physically. When they saw Liu Ming coming in, they just looked at him expressionlessly and continued to meditate and regulate their breathing.
Shou Po Qing also looked at Liu Ming and the bone scorpion on his shoulder, and said with a smile:
"Fellow Daoist Liu was able to reach here safely in this disaster. It seems that I looked down on you as a newcomer."
"You are serious, I just found out early. I ran fast enough and I was lucky. I wonder if fellow Taoist would like to tell me his name now?" Liu Ming laughed, looking noncommittal.
"My dear Xin Yuan, he was temporarily elected as the leader by several brothers after he fell into trouble seven or eight years ago. But I don't think there is any need to explain anything about the current situation." This thin young man named "Xin Yuan"
Hearing this, he said with a slight smile. But this smile seemed to affect his injuries, causing him to cough a few times suddenly, and his face turned pale in an instant.
"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Xin. This place has been completely surrounded by evil beasts. In addition to the group of evil beasts chasing me, the number is so shocking at the moment that it is absolutely impossible to break out. But I just saw the herd of beasts here.
It seems to be headed by an evil beast like a giant black wolf. Could Brother Xin's injury be related to this beast?" Liu Ming asked slowly after pondering for a moment.
"Yes, I was injured by the sneak attack of this beast. This evil beast has the strength of the late stage of liquid condensation, and can also change its body size on its own. It was mixed with ordinary evil beasts before, and I was caught by it without guarding against it.
Fortunately, the other brothers rescued them in time. They were lucky enough to rush into this place to die, and were able to rely on the terrain to hold on. However, fellow Daoist Liu actually escaped here. It seems that he and I and the others are somewhat destined." Xin Yuan smiled slightly.
said.
"It's okay not to have this kind of fate!" Liu Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this.
"Hehe. Unless fellow Taoist really intends to break out, he can only stay here for a while. The situation is urgent now. I won't talk nonsense. Brother Liu is now an ant on the same rope as me.
Grasshopper, if you want to survive, I'm afraid you have to put in some effort.
"Brother Xin is going to ask me to do something." Liu Ming's thoughts changed slightly, and he vaguely guessed something in his heart.
"It's very simple. Brother Liu must be extremely powerful if he can break into this place alone. And this disaster has just begun. If we follow the past practice, there will still be more than two days. During this period, we still need to meet other Taoist friends and me.
Like a few brothers, they take turns to defend the entrance of the cave from the attacks of evil beasts. The shift changes every quarter of an hour! What do fellow Taoists think?" Xin Yuan looked a little serious.
When Liu Ming heard this, he immediately nodded and agreed without thinking.
At this time, there will be more and more evil beasts outside the cave, including evil beasts with late-stage strength of Condensation Liquid, and all the passages have already been blocked.
He and the young man had no choice but to stick to this place and survive this disaster.
Although the young man named "Xin Yuan" seems to have lost most of his combat power, his companions seem to have extraordinary bodies. As long as they ensure that the entrance to the cave is not breached and take turns to rest and recover, they should be able to survive for a long time.
.
"Very good. Brother Liu is indeed a smart man, so I don't need to waste any more words. However, you must have exhausted a lot of your energy by coming all the way. Now you can meditate and rest first. After they have all taken their turns, you can then take your turn.
Come, fellow Taoist." When Xin Yuan saw Liu Ming agreeing so readily, a hint of joy flashed across his face, and he said with a wide grin.
"In that case, I'm not welcome!" Liu Ming saw this situation and did not refuse. He put the bone scorpion into the leather bag on his waist with a wave of his hand, let it rest for a while, and then went to look for it in the cave.
He found an open space and sat cross-legged.
"Zheng Yong, Hua Dan, you two go out and replace each other..." Xin Yuanchao ordered the two men sitting cross-legged not far away, one of whom was the practitioner in the early stage of the Condensation Realm.
The two of them just responded, stood up, took off the bone weapons from their waists, and walked towards the entrance of the cave.
After a while, the two strong men who had been guarding the entrance of the cave walked into the cave one after another. They saw that the bone hammers in their hands were covered with blood, and their bodies were covered with scars. The clothes on their arms and knees had long been reduced to strips.
Yes, densely packed small blood stains are vaguely visible.
The arm of the person walking behind seemed to be pierced by something, and a bloody hole as thick as a thumb appeared out of thin air. Some dark red blood was gurgling out, giving off a fishy smell.
"Those toad-like beasts are very difficult to deal with. They can't help but be extremely fast, and the attack angle of their tongue is quite strange." The man whose arm was seriously injured looked a little pale. After saying this, he turned over and fell down with a trembling body.
The big man walking in front was startled when he heard the sound of falling to the ground behind him. He quickly turned around and helped him up. With the help of others, he laid him down on a stone bed, and then
After taking the next detoxification pill, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Liu Ming's face was a little uncertain.
Those small, toad-like beasts that were chasing him before were indeed extremely difficult to deal with. Fortunately, he had never had any entanglements with these beasts, otherwise he would have been in big trouble.
Seeing this situation, Xin Yuan's face looked a little ugly. Now that another person was seriously injured, the situation naturally became more serious. However, just when he coughed slightly and was about to say something, a scream suddenly came from outside the cave entrance.
, then another person roared:
"Hua Dan is also poisoned, come and help me!"
As soon as this sound reached the cave, everyone's expressions changed drastically.
"Let me deal with it first. I have some understanding of this kind of evil beast, so it shouldn't be too difficult to deal with it.
Before Xin Yuan could speak, Liu Ming's eyes flashed, and he suddenly stood up, took out the bone knife from his waist, and strode out of the cave entrance.
"By the way, I also have a bottle of elixir here, which should be of some benefit to Brother Xin's injury."
However, he took a few steps, and suddenly without looking back, his sleeves flicked back, and a cyan vial several inches high was immediately thrown out.
Then he swayed, and after two flashes, he rushed to the entrance of the cave. Then there was a sound of "chichi" breaking through the air, and the roar of the beast suddenly became louder...
Xin Yuan caught the cyan vial and looked at the entrance of the hole where Liu Ming disappeared. A strange color flashed across his face. After opening the bottle cap, he sniffed the bottle mouth with his nose and suddenly became energetic.
A jolt.
The thin young man was a little moved by this.
Based on his experience, he could almost instantly confirm that the contents of the medicine bottle were definitely the highest quality elixir.
In this underground cave, not to mention high-grade healing elixirs, even inferior low-grade elixirs are very rare. Among the things that the mine slaves can usually exchange for from the guards, elixirs are also the rarest. Healing elixirs
Medicines are the most expensive among them.
The young man glanced around and found two green pills in the vial, and he was even more surprised.
After all, the other party has also lived in the mine for several months, so it is impossible that he does not know the value of these high-grade healing elixirs.
After Xin Yuan's face changed for a while, he looked at the big man lying on the stone bed next to him, and finally silently poured out one pill for him to take. He took another pill himself, and then stimulated the body.
With little mana, he began to refine medicine to heal his injuries.
When another man stumbled back into the cave with a black look on his face, Liu Ming at the entrance of the cave had just used a knife shadow to cover the two heads in it like toads.
Another man next to him waved a bone sword, desperately resisting the attack of the evil beast from the other direction.
"careful!"
After Liu Ming chopped off the two evil beasts and forced them back with bruises all over their bodies, he glanced at the man, then suddenly his expression changed and he whispered a reminder.
Almost at the same time, behind a wolf-shaped evil beast that was knocked away, there was a wave of waves, and a dark green figure several feet in size appeared in a flash. It was a giant evil beast that was twice the size of an ordinary toad evil beast.
The man was also someone who had a lot of experience in fighting enemies. He felt a chill in his heart. Without thinking, he swung the bone sword in his hand, transformed into sword shadows and blocked it in front of him. At the same time, he crushed it with his other hand.
Got a talisman.
After a "bang" sound, a blue light curtain emerged, protecting the man within it.
As soon as the huge evil beast appeared, it immediately opened its mouth, and a slender red tongue as thick as a finger rolled out. It avoided the shadow of the sword at a weird angle and pierced the light screen.
There was a crisp cracking sound!
The tongue of the giant toad beast just paused for a moment before it penetrated the light curtain on the man's body.
"ah!"
When the man's head was twisted, his long tongue grazed the side of his neck, and blood spattered out.
It turns out that this person seemed to have expected that the body-protecting light curtain would not be able to withstand its attack, so he desperately made evasive moves at the moment of life and death.
But at this moment, a bone knife flashed like lightning and struck hard on the evil beast's long tongue, cutting it in two instantly.
