Volume Three, Battle of the Sea Clan, Chapter 401, Winning
Although the black sword shadow was deflected by the blow, the invisible sword energy released from it still slit Yan La's shoulder.
When Yan Lao saw this scene, he became happy instead of angry. Then he made a seal with one hand, and the yellow light around his body disappeared, and his skin returned to its original appearance. He laughed and said to Liu Ming:
"Haha, Brother Liu's sword control skills are really amazing. If I hadn't left a silver silk glove, it's still unclear whether this gong spirit body could withstand it!"
"Brother Yan, I gave in! I have just mastered the sword-controlling skills, and I still can't send and receive them like my heart." Liu Ming raised his hand and took back the small black sword that had returned to its original shape, then smiled slightly.
said.
Seeing this, the other Iron Alliance people who were watching here whispered to each other for a while, and although their looks at Liu Ming varied, most of them contained a hint of fear.
Given Yan Lao's strength in their minds, Liu Ming could injure him with one sword, so he was naturally considered a truly strong man.
And in places like seabed mines, where the weak are the strongest, the powerful are far more awe-inspiring than outside.
What Liu Ming never expected was that although this Yan La was the leader of one of the two major forces in the mine, and his physical body was no less powerful than a strong man in the crystallization stage, he seemed to be extraordinarily generous as a person.
Although he was injured by Liu Ming's sword control skills during this sparring session, he became even more enthusiastic about him later on, and even ordered to go down and free up a larger stone room for Liu Ming to live in.
In the next two days, Yan Lao continued to send people around to inquire about the situation of this evil beast, but judging from the news that came back one after another, it seemed that this disaster really broke out without warning. And yet so.
It retreated strangely.
In addition, news came from the exchange area. The guards of the mining area headed by Chen Gang finally showed up, but they only took a look, but did not stay long before leaving again.
In response, Yan Luo just sneered and paid no attention to it.
During this period, Liu Ming had been staying in the stone house, meditating and adjusting his breath. Yan La also sent people to bring him a lot of baked meat from evil beasts for him to eat.
Xin Yuan also came to the stone house once to look for Liu Ming. He still looked sick. But his complexion was much better than before. He also found two bottles of water and wine from nowhere, and chatted with Liu Ming.
It was very pleasant to chat about some of my previous travels outside.
In his words, Xin Yuan seemed to be quite grateful for his previous gift of medicine, but he did not mention a word about the so-called "huge benefit" in his previous voice transmission, as if he had never said it before.
Seeing this, Liu Ming would naturally not take the initiative to ask.
Two days later, after confirming that all the evil beasts in the mine had returned to the abyss, Liu Mingdang said goodbye to Yan Luo, and after declining his kind invitation to join the Iron Alliance, he set off to return to his residence.
Xin Yuan and others continued to stay at the Iron Alliance station to recuperate.
Sure enough, on the way back, Liu Ming not only never saw another evil beast, but also met very few mining slaves along the way.
By the time they arrived at the cave where they originally lived, the gray-white mist that originally filled the nearby mine tunnels had long since disappeared without a trace.
Liu Ming raised his hand and released a bone scorpion to continue his warning, then dodged and entered the cave.
Being able to escape from this disaster with his life this time is considered a good fortune and he has escaped a disaster. However, if you survive a disaster, you will be blessed later, which makes Liu Ming's desire to escape from this place a little stronger.
However, at this time, he had consumed a lot of both physical strength and mana, and needed to be replenished.
Liu Ming immediately sat down cross-legged, turned his hands over and took out a spiritual stone, and then began to close his eyes and regulate his breathing.
When he was stationed in the Iron Alliance before, he would naturally not reveal any high-grade spiritual stones in front of others.
…
A few days later.
While Liu Ming was still sitting cross-legged, suddenly a "hissing" sound of a bone scorpion came from the entrance of the cave.
His eyelids twitched and he suddenly opened his eyes.
But judging from the sound coming from the bone scorpion, it didn't look like it was being attacked by an enemy.
Just when Liu Ming was about to put aside his mental energy to explore, a voice suddenly echoed in the cave:
"Brother Liu, I haven't seen you for a few days. You are well."
"It turns out that Brother Xin is here. Since he's here, let's come in and talk." Hearing the words, Liu Ming said with an expression on his face.
The next moment, a gray figure flashed and appeared in the cave.
It's Xin Yuan.
"It seems that Brother Xin has recovered well and is now alive and well." Liu Ming looked at Xin Yuan for a few times and said with a chuckle.
"This is all thanks to Brother Liu's high-grade elixir." Xin Yuan cupped his hands towards Liu Ming and said with a smile.
"It's nothing. The reason why Liu was so generous was because he hoped that Brother Xin could regain his fighting ability as soon as possible. By the way, Brother Xin's visit this time is not just for chatting with me, right? I don't know why?"
Liu Ming suddenly changed the subject and asked straight to the point what the other party's purpose was.
"Brother Liu, I wonder if you want to leave this place alive?" Xin Yuan heard this, the smile on his face faded, and he said somewhat solemnly.
"Leave this place? Are you referring to leaving this seabed mine?" Liu Ming was startled when he heard this, but asked calmly on his face.
"Yes, what Xin is talking about is leaving this deep sea vein?" Xin Yuan still said solemnly.
"In that case, Brother Xin might as well come and listen." Liu Ming was silent for a while, then said slowly and strangely.
"I wonder if Brother Liu still has some doubts about Lan Xi's attack?" Xin Yuan asked meaningfully after hearing this.
"Oh, maybe Brother Xin already knows something." When Liu Ming heard the word "Lan Xi", his mind moved and he had some vague guesses.
"I just learned the truth not long ago. In fact, the reason why Senior Lan appeared in front of the beasts was because of the woman from the Golden Scale Tribe. And this woman is a key figure in our escape from this place.
He had to show up to save him." Xin Yuan replied calmly.
"Very good. Brother Xin, please tell me in detail about this matter from beginning to end." Liu Ming's expression condensed after hearing this, and he asked seriously.
"Actually, this matter started many years ago. Senior Lan was one of the earliest mining slaves imprisoned in the mine. He has been here for hundreds of years. Fellow Taoist Yan Lao is thirty years old.
He was imprisoned here many years ago..." The thin young man began to tell the story in detail.
It turns out that the leaders of the two major forces here, the two powerful men Yan La and Lan Xi, no matter whether they entered the mine first or became slaves of the mine later, naturally no one wanted to linger in this dark place for the rest of their lives.
Therefore, on the surface, the two seem to be incompatible, but in fact, from the first day when the two major forces were formed, they quietly joined forces and plotted an escape strategy.
The reason why there are constant conflicts between the two major forces is naturally for the sake of other mine slaves and the mine slave guards to prevent them from becoming suspicious.
Now, with the quiet efforts of the two of them, they have found a way to suppress the restriction in the body, and finally found a route out of the mine.
The reason why Lan Xi has been invisible in front of everyone recently is because he has been busy working on this escape route.
Yan Luo, on the other hand, led a group of subordinates to work hard day and night to collect ores in exchange for some spiritual stones, elixirs and talismans. At the same time, they were moving around to make various other preparations for their escape.
However, for the sake of secrecy and to prevent the Siren Emperor from being an informant among the mine slaves and leaking the news, only a few confidants of Yan Lao and Lan Xi from the two major forces knew about this matter.
As for other mine slaves, only those who are recognized by the two and strong enough will quietly win over and tell them.
The Xin Yuan in front of me is naturally one of them.
However, if the escape plan is to be carried out smoothly now, it still needs the help of some people with strong attack power. There are not many people in the entire mine who can meet this condition, and there are still not enough people together.
Therefore, Xin Yuan only let him use sword control skills when he competed with Yan La.
Afterwards, Yan Lao was indeed very satisfied with Liu Ming's sword control skills, so he asked Xin Yuan to come over and invite him personally.
After Xin Yuan finished speaking, he immediately kept silent and waited for Liu Ming to digest the news before giving him an accurate reply.
After Liu Ming heard this, his face became uncertain for a while, and then he asked solemnly:
"According to this, Senior Lan and Brother Yan La are quite confident about this plan. Does Brother Xin know the specific escape route? You must know that we are deep under the sea, and the entire mineral vein is surrounded by the Siren Emperor.
There are many restrictions."
When Xin Yuan heard this, he shook his head:
"In order to ensure nothing goes wrong, the two of them will only be informed of the specific escape route and method at the moment before the action. Before that, these people and I didn't know it. Brother Liu, with your qualifications and strength, can you
I really want to be imprisoned here for the rest of my life, would you like to join us?"
Liu Ming frowned slightly and fell into deep thought again. After a while, he suddenly asked with a smile:
"Brother Xin, you are not the only one who came on this trip, right?"
While the two were talking, he quietly released his mental power and noticed that there were two strange and powerful hidden auras outside the cave.
If he hadn't been mentally powerful enough and had not deliberately investigated it, other cultivators in the middle stage of the Condensate Realm would not have been able to detect anything at all.
When Xin Yuan heard this, a strange color flashed across his face, but he admitted very frankly:
"I didn't expect Liu Xing's spiritual consciousness to be so powerful. Because this matter is of great importance, I had no choice but to do it. I hope you will bear with me. However, what Xin said before is absolutely true.
A little bit of Xu Jian..."
When Liu Ming heard this, his eyes flashed, and after looking at the thin young man in front of him for a moment, he suddenly raised his hand, and a yellow talisman shot out, and with a "bang" sound, it exploded out of thin air.
A white light curtain appeared in a flash, covering the two of them instantly, cutting off all contact with the outside.
