Chapter 42

Zhan Chen quickly rushed to the depths of the tunnel, but encountered more than a dozen miners running towards him, he hurriedly asked: "What happened?"

"Demon beast! We discovered a Rank 2 Demonic Beast! "a few miners shouted incoherently.

"Don't worry, speak slowly, what kind of demon beast is it?" In order to calm their emotions, Zhan Chen comforted them.

Several miners calmed down a little and replied, "It seems to be a Sharp-toothed Badger."

"Sharp-toothed Badger?" Zhan Chen's eyes suddenly became dignified, this was a rank 2 demon beast, the most prominent feature was its pair of powerful front claws, it was like a fish in the water, in the middle of its sharp mouth, there were rows of sharp fangs, it could easily bite through steel, its nature was ferocious, it liked to eat human flesh.

"Hehe, Zhan Chen, the two of us can deal with it, let the miners take refuge first." At this time, Wang Jie's hoarse voice came from behind Zhan Chen.

Zhan Chen was surprised for a moment, he could only nod, but his hand holding the sword became tighter.

When the miners heard Wang Jie's words, they suddenly felt as if they had been granted amnesty, they rushed to inform each other and quickly evacuated the tunnel, after a while, the tunnel became quiet, the silence was terrible.

The two of them came to the end of the tunnel, they found a huge cave, leading straight to the underground, this was obviously dug by the miners when they were digging the tunnel.

Zhan Chen walked forward and looked down, he saw directly below the entrance of the cave, about five meters away, there was a huge demon beast sleeping, it was the Sharp-toothed Badger!

At this time, Zhan Chen's heart was a bit glad, fortunately, this beast was still sleeping, fortunately, the miners did not disturb it, otherwise, I'm afraid there would be a bloody storm.

Just as Zhan Chen was observing the Sharp-toothed Badger, he suddenly felt a gust of wind behind him, it was Wang Jie finally! He saw him flying his foot towards the back of Zhan Chen, he wanted to kick Zhan Chen into the cave in one fell swoop.

Zhan Chen, who had been on guard for a long time, turned around and dodged his attack. He took the opportunity to pull out his sharp gold sword.

At this time, Wang Jie also jumped to the side and pulled out his sword.

Zhan Chen turned his head and asked, "Wang Jie, why do you want to harm me?"

"Jie Jie Jie, because you offended the young master, you must die! I was worried about how to do it, I didn't expect God to give me such a good opportunity. Remember, today God wants you to die, there is no need to struggle, just obediently accept your death. "

"Young master?" Zhan Chen suddenly woke up, it turned out that this time, the person who sent the killer turned out to be Wang Yin! In other words, Wang Yin and that old man Lan Hong had already joined hands.

So he asked again, "How many of you came back? Who are they?"

"Keke, the dead don't need to know too much. I'll send you to hell right now. Watch my sword!" As Wang Jie spoke, he thrust his sword towards Zhan Chen. In the middle of the sword, a blue light flashed, and the speed of the sword suddenly increased.

Zhan Chen's pupils suddenly shrank, he hastily used Dao Eye, the sharp golden sword in his hand to block the opponent's sword, colliding with Wang Jie's sword.

"Ding!" Zhan Chen only felt a numbness in his hand, he hastily took a few steps back, opening a certain distance between him and Wang Jie.

No, the difference in strength between a beginner Martial Master and a middle-level Martial Master is a whole thousand jin. Moreover, Wang Jie is using Wind True Qi, his sword speed is three times faster than an ordinary middle-level Martial Master. I am not his opponent.

Wang Jie was surprised for a moment, and then laughed, "Zhan Chen, interesting, I didn't expect you to be able to dodge my sword, then let's see how you will dodge this move. Watch this move, Fallen Leaf Sword! "

Wang Jie used his footwork and quickly closed in on Zhan Chen. The sword in his hand trembled, and he used a set of Wind Sword Technique. Suddenly, there were bursts of blue light, as if the sky was filled with fallen leaves, surrounding Zhan Chen.

Zhan Chen went tit for tat, and his feet used Flowing Cloud Steps. Flowing Cloud Steps, as a Superior Grade Yellow Level Footwork, was naturally extraordinary. Zhan Chen's figure suddenly became graceful and soft, like a feather, swaying freely in the wind. Even though Wang Jie's sword technique was swift and fierce, it couldn't hurt him for a while.

But this was not the way, Wang Jie's attack was too fierce, forcing Zhan Chen to keep leaning against the wall of the cave. At this moment, he was extremely anxious, "Wang Jie is forcing me into a dead end! Once my movements are restricted, his sword will immediately cut me into pieces. "

"What should I do? Do I just keep retreating? " The essence of the Golden Demon Sword Technique suddenly appeared in Zhan Chen's mind, "Break technique with brute force, and kill with one strike."

He suddenly came to a realization, "This is the most critical moment, and also the opportunity to break through!"

Understanding this, Zhan Chen suddenly gave up on dodging, and the sword in his hand fiercely stabbed towards Wang Jie's body. He shouted, "Golden Demon Sword Technique, break for me!"

At this moment, he seemed to hear a light "kacha" sound coming from his body. The bottleneck of the Intermediate Martial Master that had troubled him for a long time was broken at this moment!

On the other side, Wang Jie saw that Zhan Chen had completely given up on dodging, and was staking it all in a single stab towards him. His face immediately revealed an excited and sinister smile, and he shouted, "Zhan Chen, you've lost! My sword is faster than you! "After saying this, he also fiercely stabbed his sword towards Zhan Chen's throat.

Zhan Chen did not respond. At this moment, all of his attention was focused on the sword in his hand, and he could no longer hear any other sounds around him.

The two swords brushed past each other, and each rushed towards the other's vital points. Wang Jie's sword was three times faster than Zhan Chen's. At this moment, Wang Jie's face even revealed a victorious smile.

At this moment, Zhan Chen's sword suddenly ignited with a sword gleam. With the appearance of this sword gleam, the Sharp Metal Sword's attack range extended by a full meter!

"Pfft!" Wang Jie's chest was pierced by the sword gleam. He lowered his head in disbelief, and looked at the bloody hole in his chest. At this moment, the tip of his sword was only five inches away from Zhan Chen's throat, but it was this five inches that had become a heavenly moat!

He felt that the strength in his body was rapidly disappearing, and the sword in his hand was no longer able to advance any further. He could not help but look up again, and saw the pair of determined eyes of Zhan Chen. Even if he was so close to death, he still did not waver.

"Jie Jie Jie, Zhan Chen, you win!" Wang Jie said this sentence, and the sword in his hand fell to the ground, and he fell down.

Zhan Chen, seeing that he was about to die, quickly stepped forward, squatted in front of him, and asked: "Wang Jie, how many people did you come with this time? Who are they? "

"We came with three people …" Wang Jie desperately spat out these few words.

"Who are they?" Zhan Chen hastily asked.

Wang Jie was about to open his mouth, when suddenly he heard an angry roar coming from the cave behind him, and a black shadow jumped out from the cave. The Sharp-toothed Badger had woken up!

Zhan Chen suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis approaching, and hastily retreated.

That animal's beautiful dream was disturbed, and it was extremely angry. Suddenly seeing Wang Jie on the ground, it did not hesitate to bite him, and only heard the sound of bones breaking, and in the blink of an eye, Wang Jie's body was broken into two pieces.

Zhan Chen felt a burst of regret, he still had many questions that he did not have time to ask.

But it was too late, because at this time, the Sharp-toothed Badger's gaze had already shifted to him.

Zhan Chen hastily retreated, and pulled away from this animal.

The Sharp-toothed Badger let out a long roar, and opened its two huge front claws, pouncing towards him. The space in the cave was relatively narrow, and the space for movement was limited.

Seeing that it was impossible for Zhan Chen to avoid it, his eyes ignited with fighting spirit. Since he could not avoid it, then there was no need to! The long sword in his hand met it, Golden Demon Sword Technique!

The sharp golden sword slashed out with a platinum sword light, and the body of the Sharp-toothed Badger suddenly stiffened, and a bloody mark spread out on one of its front claws, and then half of its claws fell off. Only then did it let out a mournful roar, and the entire tunnel seemed to tremble.

Zhan Chen, who had slashed out with this sword, was so excited that his whole body was trembling. The Golden Demon Sword Technique that he had mastered was really too powerful! It was beyond his imagination!

The Sharp-toothed Badger was completely crazy, and it charged wildly at Zhan Chen, vowing to tear this enemy in front of it into pieces.

However, having lost one of its claws, the Sharp-toothed Badger was already much weaker. Zhan Chen used the Flowing Cloud Steps, and brandished the Golden Demon Sword Technique, moving between the gaps of the Sharp-toothed Badger's attacks, appearing to be more and more at ease.

The sharp claws and sharp teeth of the Sharp-toothed Badger could not even touch the corner of his clothes, but the sword light of the sharp golden sword in his hand could easily leave streaks of bloody marks on the opponent's body.

At this moment, this pitiful second rank demonic beast had completely become Zhan Chen's practice target. It was still struggling madly, selflessly offering its battle experience to Zhan Chen.

Finally, the Sharp-toothed Badger was covered in blood, and its strength was completely exhausted. It lay on the ground motionless, facing the sky. Zhan Chen walked up to it, dug out the Yao Core in its stomach, and put it in his bosom.

Only then did he heave a sigh of relief. Sitting on the ground, he felt a wave of exhaustion. Although he had just broken through a level, he had been in a state of excitement for battle.

Now that the battle was over, he was completely relaxed, and only then did he feel that the vital Qi in his body was almost completely exhausted.

After calming down, he began to recall what Wang Jie had said earlier. This time, there were a total of three of them, and Wang Jie was one of them. Then who were the other two? Was it Hong Zhigang? It was very possible that this guy was always going against him, and wanted to kill him to be happy.

Then who was the third person? Zhan Chen began to think hard about all the people he had come into contact with, and all the people he had not come into contact with. However, the more he thought about it, the more confused he became. The more he thought about it, the more possible it was. In the end, his mind was a mess, and he could not sort out a single thought.

At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from the tunnel.
