No wonder there weren't as many giant lizards as he had imagined.
It turned out that.
Before those giant lizards went out to look for prey, they still had to climb the vertical cliff of more than 3,000 meters to get out.
"Roar …"
Just when Fang Qiu saw the ground at the bottom of the cave, suddenly a loud roar came from below and kept echoing in Fang Qiu's ears. It felt like he was in the depths of the valley.
He landed.
Fang Qiu didn't move.
There was no movement around him, but in this pitch-black environment, he could clearly see piles of scattered boulders four to five meters away from him.
It seemed that these boulders were blown down by the nuclear explosion.
In the cracks of these boulders and on the boulders, there were many giant lizards hiding.
These giant lizards were going to jump from the boulders to the cliff and then climb out. As a result, as soon as Fang Qiu landed, these lizards immediately stopped and all stared at Fang Qiu, motionless, as if waiting for their prey to come to them.
Of course.
They didn't know.
Fang Qiu had been staring at them for a long time.
"Whoosh!"
After confirming the location of these giant lizards around, Fang Qiu immediately moved and flashed out.
"Bang, bang, bang …"
Unfortunately, these lizards didn't even have time to react and were all killed by Fang Qiu with one punch!
After killing all the giant lizards nearby, Fang Qiu stopped.
He turned his eyes and observed the situation around.
Fang Qiu found that in addition to the huge gravel all over the ground, there were vertical steep rock walls in the three directions. Only behind the gravel in front of him, there was a cave entrance.
This cave entrance was very big.
It seemed to be formed by the flow of the underground river all year round. The inner wall of the cave entrance was like a stalactite.
He stepped into it.
"Roar, roar …"
Fang Qiu heard a burst of giant lizards' roar again.
As a result.
After a few steps, Fang Qiu came to a fork in the road.
Listening to the roar coming from a distance, Fang Qiu chose one of the roads and walked in. However, after a long time, he found that it was a dead end. There was nothing in it except for two giant lizards.
After killing the two giant lizards on the spot, Fang Qiu went back the way he came and walked into another road.
As a result.
After walking for about 20 meters, he came to another fork.
"Hmm?"
Fang Qiu paused for a moment and then chose a random road to walk in. Just like last time, he walked into a dead end.
"Could it be that this cave is a natural maze?"
Fang Qiu raised his eyebrows.
He knew.
Underground caves were very likely to form natural labyrinths. This was because the formation of underground caves was mostly due to underground rivers. The surging of the river would create a huge space underground, forming a karst cave.
As for some underground water, because the amount was not large, but because of the rapid flow of the water, it was very easy for it to create many forks in the karst cave, just like the forks at the source of the three rivers.
While he was puzzled.
Fang Qiu returned and encountered another giant lizard on the way. After killing it, he returned to the second fork.
"Divine Sense!"
While entering another road, Fang Qiu shouted in his heart. His Divine Consciousness immediately spread out, completely covering the surrounding area of ten kilometers.
Because it was too dark underground, although Fang Qiu's Divine Sense could cover a range of 20 kilometers, he did not do so because he felt that this underground cave could be as large as 10 kilometers.
He didn't even dare to think about a radius of twenty kilometers! True enough.
Under the exploration of the Divine Sense.
Fang Qiu found that the diameter of this area was about five kilometers. It was indeed a natural labyrinth, and there were many giant lizards in this labyrinth.
Because it was not far away.
When sensing the giant lizard, Fang Qiu directly used the Great Hand of Destruction to directly kill it from a distance without it knowing anything!
He killed all the way forward.
Soon.
Fang Qiu used his Divine Consciousness to explore this area.
The exit was something similar to a sewer.
That was to say, this natural labyrinth area was at the bottom. The location of the exit was higher than the natural labyrinth area.
He came to the exit.
Fang Qiu clearly saw that the exit was a slope, about two meters wide and three to five meters high. It looked like a sewer.
Beside this exit, there were gravel messily.
In fact, along the way, Fang Qiu saw a lot of boulders, and even some places in the labyrinth had collapsed. It seemed that they had been shaken down by the nuclear explosion decades ago.
Fortunately, Fang Qiu had the Divine Sense to explore. If it were anyone else, they would be dizzy in this natural labyrinth.
With a leap, he jumped to the exit.
Fang Qiu found that there was a new world in front of him.
It was a particularly wide karst cave. The top of the karst cave was like a night sky, with dense green spots of fireflies, which were beautiful.
"Eh?"
"Fireflies?"
With a move of the Divine Sense, Fang Qiu immediately realized that these dense stars were actually fireflies.
"How could there be fireflies underground?"
While he was surprised.
Fang Qiu looked up.
He saw that there was an oasis in front of him!
Yes, it was an oasis!
It was an oasis exactly like the desert!
It was an oasis that grew on flat lava rocks.
In addition to the two gentle rivers on both sides, there were flowers and even trees on the oasis.
"Hmm?"
When staring at the oasis, Fang Qiu suddenly trembled all over.
He saw a creature.
A very strange creature!
It was a lizard!
It was a lizard covered in scales from head to toe!
They were round, dark green scales that looked like they were cast from iron.
It was a lizard with a body length of only more than four meters, or even less than five meters, much smaller than other giant lizards.
Although it was small.
But Fang Qiu felt an aura from this scaled lizard that other lizards did not have at all. It was a powerful and natural majestic aura.
It was like a tiger in the mountains.
"Good heavens."
Fang Qiu took a light breath and immediately spread out his Divine Sense to check around.
As a result, he found.
In this cave, there wasn't even a normal giant lizard.
"Strange."
A thought came to his mind.
Fang Qiu immediately looked behind the scaled lizard.
As expected.
With this look, Fang Qiu immediately saw something that made him widen his eyes!
"That is …"
Behind the scaled lizard.
In the middle of the oasis in the cave, Fang Qiu saw a blade of grass. It was like ordinary grass, but the grass was divided into two colors.
One blue, one red!
The blue was fluorescent blue with a hint of green. The red was bright red with a hint of purple.
Around this stalk of grass, there were also tiny specks of light.
It looked like a fairy grass! "Vigor Grass!"
Looking at this grass, Fang Qiu couldn't help but get excited.
In his mind, information about this Vigor Grass instantly appeared.
Vigor Grass!
One of the Heaven Treasures, ranked 21st on the Heaven Treasures List.
This grass was born in pairs and had one spirit in each life!
The living one contained an extremely powerful aura of life and had the effect of growing flesh and bones. The spiritual one was a spiritual root gathered by the energy of heaven and earth. Its spirit was powerful, but it didn't hurt the body. Martial arts practitioners and above could take it. It was a gift from heaven.
Fang Qiu didn't expect that.
There was a Heaven Treasure like Vigor Grass in this three thousand meters deep underground!
You should know.
What Fang Qiu needed most now was the Heaven Treasure. And this Vigor Grass happened to be one of the 24 Heaven Treasures that Fang Qiu needed. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was the most suitable because this Vigor Grass had a very powerful aura of life. It could even grow flesh and bones, let alone protect meridians.
Although he was excited.
But because the scaled lizard was staring at him covetously, Fang Qiu immediately suppressed his inner excitement and started to observe carefully.
"It's about to mature."
According to the records in the Scroll of Heaven Materials and Earth Treasures, when this Vigor Grass matured, the blue side would completely turn fluorescent green, showing its unique and powerful life energy. The red side would turn purple, implying that its spirit was like the purple Qi coming from the east!
Judging from the current situation.
This Vigor Grass had begun to turn fluorescent green and purple. Obviously, it was a sign that it would soon mature!
"No wonder, no wonder."
Suddenly, Fang Qiu smiled.
He knew.
Those giant lizards must have lived in this cave for decades. On the one hand, they were trapped here by the nuclear explosion. On the other hand, this cave was the only place where there was water for them to live.
However, the appearance of this Vigor Grass caused these man-eating lizards to mutate. Coupled with the existence of the underground river, these lizards hunted fish in this cave. That was why they grew so big.
Come to think of it.
There should be other small animals like scorpions in this cave. However, in the past decades, it was very likely that they had been eaten by these man-eating lizards!
All Heaven Materials and Earth Treasures were accompanied by guardian beasts.
Therefore.
When the Vigor Grass appeared, one of the giant lizards living in this cave began to mutate and become a guardian beast.
Without a doubt.
It was this scaled lizard in front of them.
After becoming a guardian beast, the scaled lizard's strength would definitely become stronger. Therefore, it naturally became the king of this cave.
Before the Vigor Grass matured, it allowed all the giant lizards to live in this cave.
However, when it noticed that the Vigor Grass was about to mature, it was afraid that other giant lizards would snatch it, so it drove away all the lizards that originally lived in this cave!
Precisely because of this.
After the nuclear explosion, there suddenly appeared so many giant lizards in Lop Nur, which had been safe for decades. It was also precisely because of this that when Fang Qiu came to the cave, he found that the giant lizards in the cave were all trying to climb up the cliff of 3,000 meters high in order to go out and look for food.
It was also precisely because of this that those giant lizards directly pounced on Fang Qiu and the others when they first saw them, not giving them any time to react.
Because they were just too hungry!
After careful calculation.
There were at least 70 or 80 giant lizards that Fang Qiu had killed before. In addition to the 20 or 30 giant lizards that he had killed after entering the cave, there were more than 100 giant lizards in total!
Come to think of it.
