The stone cave wasn't big; it was only about a hundred meters in size.
Except for a few stone beds and a few large bags piled up on the side, there were no other furnishings in the cave.
The first thing that caught Liu Ming's eyes was a sallow and skinny face with thick eyebrows and big eyes. It was just that the sickly face added a hint of gray complexion.
It was the thin 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 with a length of more than twenty meters was leaning against the stone wall.
This was the first time that Liu Ming saw this rod leave the hands of the young man. He couldn't help but be slightly stunned. He looked at the young man up and down a few times.
Only then did he realize that the gray clothes on the young man's body were tattered at this moment. There were still a lot of bloodstains on the surface. He didn't know whether it was the evil beast's or his own.
But looking at his current appearance, he was obviously injured, and it looked quite serious.
With such strength, he was actually injured like this. It could be seen that he must have experienced a fierce battle not long ago.
Liu Ming almost subconsciously thought of the black giant wolf-like evil beast that was four times larger than the surrounding evil beasts outside the cave.
Beside him, there were also four men sitting cross-legged. One of them was the person who was previously recruited by the thin young man with an antidote at the exchange meeting. Although he only had the cultivation of the Condensation State early stage, his physical body was quite powerful like the other three. At this moment, when he saw Liu Ming coming in, he just glanced at him blankly, then he continued to meditate and adjust his breath.
The thin young man also looked at Liu Ming and Bone Scorpion on his shoulder a few times, then he said with a smile,
"Liu, you can arrive here safely in this Evil Disaster. It seems that I have underestimated you as a newcomer."
"You're being too serious. I just found it early, ran fast enough, and was lucky. I wonder if you are willing to tell me your name now? "Liu Ming laughed with a noncommittal look.
"I'm Xin Yuan. After I was in trouble seven or eight years ago, I was temporarily elected as the leader by several brothers. However, in our current situation, I don't think there's any need to explain anything. " When the skinny young man called 'Xin Yuan' heard this, he said with a smile. However, this smile seemed to affect the injuries on his body, causing him to suddenly cough a few times. His face was even paler instantly.
"So it's Fellow Daoist Xin. This place is completely surrounded by evil beasts. Together with the evil beasts that are chasing me, the number is astonishing at this moment. I absolutely can't force my way out. But I just saw that the original beast herd here seemed to be led by a giant black wolf-like evil beast. Could Brother Xin's injury be related to this beast? "Liu Ming pondered for a moment before slowly asking.
"That's right, I was injured by this beast. This evil beast has the strength of the Condensation Period later stage, and it can also change the size of its body on its own. I was caught off guard when it mixed in with the ordinary evil beasts. Fortunately, the other brothers came to their rescue in time and were lucky enough to rush into this land of death. They could still rely on the terrain to hold on for a while. However, Liu actually escaped to this place. It seems that we have some fate together. "Xin Yuan said with a slight smile.
"This kind of fate, I don't want it!" Liu Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard the words.
"Hehe, unless you really plan to break out, otherwise you can only stay here for a while. Now the situation is urgent, I won't say any nonsense. Brother Liu is now in the same boat with us. If he wants to survive, I'm afraid he has to put in some effort. "
"What does Brother Xin want me to do?" Liu Ming thought slightly, and he faintly guessed something in his heart.
"It's very simple. Brother Liu can break into this place alone, so his strength must be extraordinary. This Evil Disaster has just begun. According to the past practice, there are still more than two days. During this period, I need you to take turns to defend the evil beast's attack with the other brothers. Change every quarter of an hour! What do you think? "Xin Yuan's expression was a little serious.
When Liu Ming heard this, he immediately nodded and agreed without thinking.
Outside the stone cave at this time, there would be more and more evil beasts. There were even evil beasts of the Condensation Period later stage, and all the passages were already blocked.
There was no other way for him to survive this Evil Disaster with the young man.
Although this young man named "Xin Yuan" seemed to have lost most of his combat power, his companions seemed to have extraordinary physical bodies. As long as the cave entrance was not broken and they took turns to rest and recover, they should be able to survive for a long time.
"Very well, Brother Liu is really a smart person. I don't need to waste my breath. But you must have consumed a lot of your physical strength all the way here. You can meditate and rest first. After they take turns, it will be your turn. " Xin Yuan saw that Liu Ming agreed so readily, and he couldn't help flashing a hint of joy on his face. At the same time, he said with a big grin.
"If that's the case, I won't be polite!" Seeing this situation, Liu Ming didn't refuse. He waved his hand and kept Bone Scorpion into the leather bag around his waist. He let it rest for a while, then he found an empty space in the stone cave and sat cross-legged.
"Zheng Yong, Hua Dan, you two go out and take turns." Xin Yuan instructed the two men who were sitting cross-legged not far from him. One of them was the Condensation Period early stage cultivator.
The two just responded, then they stood up, took the bone weapons from their waists, and walked to the cave entrance.
After a while, the two strong men who were guarding the cave entrance walked into the cave one after another. The bone hammers in their hands were dripping with blood, and their bodies were also riddled with wounds. The clothes on their arms and knees had long been torn into strips, and tiny blood stains could be vaguely seen.
The arm of the person walking at the back seemed to have been pierced by something. A bloody hole the size of a thumb appeared out of nowhere. Dark red black blood was flowing out of it, emitting a foul stench.
"Those toad-like evil beasts are very difficult to deal with. Not only are they extremely fast, but the angle of their tongue attack is quite strange." The muscular man whose arm was seriously injured looked a little pale. After saying this, his body trembled and fell down.
The burly man who was walking in front was startled when he heard the sound of someone falling to the ground behind him. He quickly turned around and helped him up. With the help of the others, he laid him flat on a stone bed. After feeding him an antidote, everyone let out a sigh of relief.
Liu Ming's face was a little uncertain.
The small toad-like evil beasts that chased him before were really difficult to deal with. Fortunately, he had never been entangled with these evil beasts, otherwise he would be in big trouble.
Seeing this situation, Xin Yuan's face was a little ugly. Now that another person was seriously injured, the situation was naturally even worse. However, just as he coughed slightly and was about to say something, a scream suddenly came from outside the cave, followed by another person's roar, "Brother, you're dead!"
"Hua Dan is also poisoned. Someone come and help me!"
As soon as this voice came into the stone cave, everyone's expression changed drastically.
"I will go and deal with it first. I have some understanding of this kind of evil beast. It shouldn't be too difficult to deal with it. "
Before waiting for Xin Yuan to speak, Liu Ming suddenly stood up after his eyes flashed. He pulled out the bone blade from his waist and strode out of the cave.
"By the way, I still have a bottle of elixir. It should be good for Brother Xin's injury."
However, after he took a few steps, he suddenly flicked his sleeve without looking back. He immediately threw out a small green bottle a few inches high.
Then his figure flickered. After two flashes, he rushed to the entrance of the cave. There was a whistling sound, and the beast's roar suddenly became louder …
Xin Yuan caught the green bottle. After looking at the entrance of the cave where Liu Ming disappeared, a strange expression flashed on his face. After opening the bottle cap, he sniffed the bottle with his nose, and he was suddenly refreshed.
The thin young man was a little moved.
With his experience, he could almost instantly confirm that the thing in the bottle was definitely the best elixir.
In this underground cave, not to mention top grade healing elixirs, even inferior elixirs that did not meet the standard grade were extremely rare and precious. Among the things that the slave miners could exchange from the guards, elixir was the rarest, and the healing elixir was the most expensive.
The young man glanced and found that there were two green elixirs in the bottle. He was even more surprised.
After all, the other party had lived in the mine for a few months. It was impossible for him not to know the value of these superior grade healing elixirs.
After Xin Yuan's face changed for a while, he looked at the macho man lying on the stone bed next to him. He finally poured out a pill for him to consume, and he took the other one. Then, he channeled the little spiritual power in his body and began to refine the medicinal power to heal himself.
When the other man stumbled back into the stone cave with a black face, Liu Ming, who was at the entrance of the cave, had just used a blade shadow to cover the two toad-like creatures.
Another man next to him waved a bone sword, desperately resisting the evil beast's attack from the other direction.
"Be careful!"
After Liu Ming forced the two evil beasts back with wounds all over his body, he glanced at the man, and his face suddenly changed as he reminded in a low voice.
Almost at the same time, behind a wolf-shaped evil beast that was blown away, there was a fluctuation. A dark green figure of several ten meters flashed out. It was a giant evil beast that was twice the size of an ordinary toad evil beast.
The man was also a person with rich experience in fighting against enemies. He suddenly felt a chill in his heart. He waved the bone sword in his hand without thinking, and it turned into a sword shadow that blocked in front of him. At the same time, he instantly crushed a talisman in his other hand.
After a "bang", a layer of blue light curtain emerged, protecting the man in it.
As soon as the giant evil beast appeared, it immediately opened its mouth, and a slender red tongue as thick as a finger rolled out. It avoided the sword shadow at a strange angle and stabbed on the light curtain.
A crisp cracking sound came!
The giant toad evil beast's tongue just paused slightly, then it pierced through the light curtain on the man's body.
"Ah!"
The man twisted his head, and the long tongue barely grazed the side of his neck, causing blood to spurt out.
It turned out that this person seemed to have expected that this protective light curtain could not resist his attack, so he desperately dodged at the moment of life and death.
At this moment, a bone sword flashed like lightning, and it slashed on the evil beast's long tongue, cutting it in half instantly.
