Chapter 171: Cave Movements (Two in One)
Wang Yu tapped his feet lightly, leaving a shadow behind, and dodged the opponent's bamboo stick attack of more than 20 meters.
His speed was enhanced by the second stage of the body refining method, and this attack could not hit him at all.
With a thought, the heart bamboo behind him actually split into bamboo spears.
"Go." Wang Yu waved his hand gently.
Hundreds of bamboo spears shot towards Su Zhan.
Bamboo spears are more powerful than the previous bamboo leaves, and they are unstoppable.
This is a change of tactics he created himself. As for how to split into a large number of bamboo spears in an instant.
This is not difficult, as long as the mental power is large enough and the attainments in the art of mind control are deep enough.
Of course, the not difficult here is only for Wang Yu.
Ordinary inner disciples can rarely meet the requirements of these two points, at least Su Zhan can't do it yet.
His eyelids twitched, but his hands did not slow down at all. The handprint changed, and purple air appeared around him.
The next moment, his body pierced by the bamboo spears became illusory.
"Purple Smoke Method?" Wang Yu's expression remained unchanged, and his left hand suddenly swung to the side.
The remaining bamboo spears in the air suddenly turned their spearheads, piercing through the void. In Su Zhan's stunned face, they densely pierced his body.
At this time, he was only a few meters away from Wang Yu. In another second, he could quietly approach and complete the counterattack.
But unfortunately, Wang Yu saw through his magic at a glance. The bamboo spears seemed to be equipped with precise navigation and firmly locked on his body.
And finally, like a cage, it imprisoned him in place.
"I lost." Su Zhan said bitterly. He never thought that he would lose to Wang Yu, who had only been in the inner door for only a year.
He was defeated in such a quick and careless way in the field of the Heart Bamboo Magic, which he was best at.
Even though Wang Yu was a direct disciple, he couldn't accept it.
"Thank you, senior brother." Wang Yu let the bamboo spears disperse and said politely.
Su Zhan shook his head and left silently with a sigh.
I thought I could take this opportunity to teach Wang Yu, my direct disciple.
But I didn't expect that I would be the one being taught. I didn't want to stay here any longer and embarrass myself.
Wang Yu then looked at Shen Qiuhe on the side. Anyway, they had already sparred, so it didn't make any difference to fight one more round.
It sounds a bit arrogant, but he really didn't warm up just now.
But Shen Qiuhe laughed dryly, maintaining the demeanor of a senior brother, and said: "The sparring just now was really wonderful, and I also got some enlightenment. I need to go back to practice, so I'll take my leave first."
After saying that, he left quickly, unwilling to follow in Su Zhan's footsteps.
"Senior Brother Su Zhan's innate cultivation has not entered the innate middle realm, but is only slightly better than me. So it seems that my current combat power should be around the innate middle realm, or even stronger?"
Wang Yu made a conservative inference in his heart, but he was still not completely sure.
Such a competition within the sect cannot really count. Compared with real combat, everyone will be cautious and hold back, and will not use real killing moves to kill people.
If you want to measure your current real strength, it is better to go out and find some opponents with good skills to compete with.
You will know it after a try.
A year of inner sect cultivation has allowed him to establish a firm in the innate realm. He is confident that as long as he does not act recklessly, his basic safety in the wild of Blue Star is guaranteed.
After watching the excitement, the disciples also dispersed.
At first, they were a little dissatisfied with Wang Yu, the new direct disciple, but now they have changed their views.
The cultivation world is so real, and it all depends on strength.
After a while, Wang Yu stepped into the master's palace and saluted.
"Master."
In the master's palace, Zizhu Zhenren nodded.
"How has your cultivation progressed recently?"
The old man wanted to see how Wang Yu's natural way was, but Wang Yu only used the Heart Bamboo Magic to defeat Su Zhan, and the natural way didn't even have a chance to show off.
"The water bridge has been built, Master." Wang Yu said respectfully.
The words made Zizhu Zhenren's eyelids twitch a few times.
This progress really shocked him.
One bridge built in a year...
He thought Miaotong was the most natural person in the world.
But even for her, it took her seven years to build the first bridge, which was considered very fast in his opinion.
Overall, he was quite satisfied with Wang Yu, his direct disciple.
The only thing that was a little bit off was that this disciple actually liked farming and went to Danfeng's medicinal fields every few days. Those who didn't know would think he was a disciple from Danfeng.
And he was as low-key as he could be on weekdays. Although he was his direct disciple, his presence was lower than most disciples, and he was ignored if he wasn't careful.
"I heard that you have never left the mountain gate this year?" asked Master Zizhu.
Wang Yu nodded, "I feel that my cultivation is still shallow, so I dare not slack off, so I will not leave the mountain gate."
"Yes." Master Zizhu did not comment, "I think necessary experience is an important part of cultivation and growth, especially for you young disciples."
When Wang Yu heard this, he guessed that Master Zizhu had some plans for him.
"Next year is the day of the Wufeng Exchange Meeting. In previous years, Miaotong was the only one who supported the event. This time, you are the new disciple of Zizhu Peak, and you will most likely be instructed.
You must not lose the face of Zizhu Peak at that time."
Master Zizhu said that he was already planning for the next year.
"Before that, the holes in the No. 6 mining star began to frequently produce earth beasts. Other Wufengs sent disciples to suppress them. You and Miaotong should go together.
By the way, practice more in the Leize, maybe it can help you build a thunder bridge."
Master Zizhu then talked about the main business.
Obviously, he had already planned to let Wang Yu go out for training before the inner gate Wufeng Exchange Meeting.
...
Three days later, the outer gate Xiaoshishan.
Miao Tong flashed a stream of purple light and landed here, attracting the attention of many outer disciples.
"It's Sister Miao Tong from Zizhu Peak, she's really like a fairy..."
"It's said that the underground cave of the mining star has moved, which has alarmed the sect. Many disciples from Wufeng have been dispatched. Sister Miao Tong is probably going there this time."
"The underground cave erupted once in the early years, and countless evil beasts living in the underground of the mining star appeared like a blowout, and many people were killed and injured at that time!"
"I've heard about it too..."
Wang Yu listened to the discussions of the disciples around him. He didn't expect that the news of the unusual movement in the underground cave of the mining star had spread so quickly.
The underground cave is dangerous, so you have to be careful on this trip.
Thinking this in his heart, he saw Miao Tong coming towards him.
"Sorry for the wait, little junior brother." Miao Tong said.
"I just arrived too. There's no time to lose. Let's go, senior sister." Wang Yu said straightforwardly.
"Okay." Miao Tong nodded.
The two then stepped into the magnetic gate leading to the mining star and disappeared on the top of the mountain, leaving the people on the mountain still watching.
"Who is that young man? How can he travel with Senior Sister Miaotong?" A male disciple said angrily, quite jealous.
"I don't know. Judging from his clothes, he should also be an inner disciple of Zizhu Peak."
"Damn it, I will also go to Zizhu Peak in the future, Senior Sister, you must wait for me..."
Wang Yu, who is unknown, has become a direct disciple of Zizhu Peak, but not many people know him.
This has a lot to do with his usual low-key behavior, which saves him a lot of trouble.
At present, the human race occupies a total of six broken stars around the blue star.
The mining star is the sixth broken star discovered and occupied by the human race.
The planet is mostly mineral materials, the environment is extreme, and other materials are scarce, so it cannot be used as a planet for the human race to settle for a long time.
People come here just to mine the ore here.
On a bare mountain, there is a sect tower similar to the one on the silver star stone.
Inside the tower, the Ci Li Sect is operating.
Accompanied by a wave of energy, the halo is strong.
Wang Yu and Miao Tong walked out of it.
"It turns out that the disciples of Zizhu Peak have arrived."
A voice came, and Wang Yu looked at it.
The person who spoke was an elderly man with a cold temperament, a white beard, and wearing the deacon uniform of the martial sect.
"I am Xiao Wuji, and I meet you two." The elder said politely.
"Miao Tong, a disciple of Zizhu Peak." Miao Tong returned the greeting first.
Wang Yu then introduced his name and identity.
The man in front of him had a very strong aura. Although his cultivation was not at the level of a real person, he was probably a very strong existence in the innate realm.
Otherwise, they would not have arranged to guard the Ci Li Sect stronghold on this mining planet.
In addition to him, there were several strong auras inside and outside the tower, all of whom were extremely powerful sect deacons.
"You two are here to destroy the earth beasts, right?" Xiao Wuji asked.
"Yes." Miao Tong nodded. She knew that the person in charge on the mining planet was the one in front of her, so it was right to coordinate the mission with him.
"In the southeast direction, the No. 7 cave has been moving a lot recently. For the time being, only the disciples of the Rising Sun Peak can go there. I hope you two can go there to help."
Xiao Wuji arranged and told the two the specific coordinates.
"Okay." Miao Tong nodded in response.
"The movement of the cave this time is not trivial. Please be more careful." Xiao Wuji reminded at the end.
The two then left the Wuzong Tower and officially set foot on this mining planet.
There was a thick layer of dark haze above their heads. It was clearly daytime, but there were few beams of light shining down.
Being in it was quite depressing.
Looking around, there were stone mountains everywhere.
Large and small, continuous.
The air was dull and turbid, with many black stone chips floating in the air. The environment lacked many natural energies of various attributes, which was indeed quite extreme.
If they were not warriors, ordinary people would probably become sick and have emotional breakdowns in such a bad environment in a short time if they came here to settle down for a long time.
It makes sense that no country is willing to migrate here.
Miao Tong took out a small ball of light from her arms and gently threw it into the air.
The light ball shattered, and a small green bird flew out.
Wang Yu felt familiar with it. Wasn't this bird the Luan bird that Miao Tong had taken away, except that it had become smaller in size.
"Release!" Miao Tong reached out and touched the forehead of the little Luan bird.
The next moment, the Luan bird, which was only the size of a palm, suddenly expanded to its original length of more than ten meters as if it were inflated.
It flapped its wings and circled in the air, making a clear and high-pitched cry.
Then it landed on the ground and lay down in front of Miao Tong obediently.
Miao Tong jumped lightly and landed on the Luan bird.
It felt like this Luan bird had become her mount, no longer as majestic as it was in the Wuliang Mountains.
I don't know what means Miao Tong used to tame it.
"Junior brother, the environment here lacks natural energy, so try to reduce the consumption of innate energy as much as possible to avoid recovery too slowly."
Miao Tong explained, motioning Wang Yu to come up as well, without the need to fly with the Qi.
Wang Yu took two steps closer and was about to make a move when the phoenix suddenly became restless and rebellious.
This surprised Miao Tong.
After the phoenix was tamed, it had used magic to wash away its memories of the ferocious beast period, so it no longer had any ferocity.
However, it was unexpected that when it met Wang Yu, its ferocity was aroused again.
Seeing this, Wang Yu stepped back a few steps and simply took out a huge metal sword from his storage bag.
The whole body was pure white, the sword body was more than two meters long and nearly half a meter wide, and the overall workmanship was slightly rough. The only bright spot was that it was inlaid with a large number of rune stones with multiple complete runes engraved on them.
Wang Yu pinched the seal with his right hand and separated a wisp of mental power to attach to the flying sword.
The next moment, the flying sword floated up by itself and floated steadily in the air.
This was Wang Yu's homemade rune flying sword, and it was also the first rune item he successfully made after he began to learn the rune art.
It must be said that he had somewhat underestimated the difficulty of mastering the rune art.
There are too many and too complicated techniques to understand. Even with the panel, it is still quite difficult for him to master them one by one.
Fortunately, after two years of study, he finally achieved some results.
He can already make some simple gadgets by himself.
This kind of flying sword is one of them. It uses energy stones as kinetic energy and does not require its own energy consumption.
Then control it with mental power, even a warrior in the Burning Blood Realm can use this flying sword to fly in the air, which is quite convenient.
He jumped up lightly and landed steadily on the sword.
Miao Tong saw this, suppressed Qingluan's ferocity, and nodded to Wang Yu.
One person rode a bird, and the other flew a sword, and quickly flew in the designated direction.
Wang Yu looked along the way and saw many abandoned mines and pits.
Traces of mining can be seen everywhere.
Suddenly, a scream came from below.
Before Wang Yu could look, Miao Tong, who was flying in front, had already flown down with Qingluan.
Wang Yu then saw several human miners fleeing below.
Chasing from behind was a reptile with a black body and deformed body.
Its limbs looked full of muscles, and its body was covered with a layer of keratin full of spikes.
One side of its bald head was bulging, and it actually had half a head.
The giant teeth that were split to the roots of the ears occupied almost half of the area of the head, and a huge black eyeball grew on the forehead, locking onto the fleeing miners.
When Qingluan descended to a height of 100 meters, the sword light in Miao Tong's hand had already pierced through the air.
Instantly pierced the deformed creature through and nailed it firmly in place.
As Qingluan flapped its wings, it also shot out a colorful light, directly smashing most of the body of the deformed creature.
The fighting power displayed by this Qingluan when they first met was extremely strong, and now that it has been subdued, it has not weakened at all.
When Wang Yu landed, he had nothing to do.
"It's a split worm." Miao Tong said when she saw Wang Yu approaching.
She was talking about the deformed creature in front of her, as if she had seen it before and was not unfamiliar.
"Split worm?"
Wang Yu heard about it for the first time. After all, he had never been to this mining planet before, so he naturally didn't understand it.
"Well, split worms are one of the most common underground beasts. They reproduce by self-division and their number is quite large.
The threat level ranges from the body-building level to the innate level. The strong ones are very strong, and the weak ones are very weak. The span is very large.
And they have a certain degree of intelligence and a strong desire to eat."
Miao Tong told Wang Yu the information she knew.
She came to the mining planet more than once to suppress the abnormal movement of the cave, and she was very familiar with many ground beasts.
"Is there no real level?" Wang Yu asked, his eyes constantly looking at the split worm in front of him, which was only a small part left and had long been dead.
Miao Tong shook her head, "No, at least so far, I haven't heard of a real-level earth beast."
After hearing this, Wang Yu felt relieved.
The miners were just ordinary people. Seeing that they were saved, they kowtowed to Wang Yu and the others to thank them.
In their eyes, Wang Yu and the other two who descended from the sky were like gods, and their faces were full of awe.
After a little questioning, they found out that they were a mining team sent by the Blue Star Sect.
Originally a team of thousands of people, they were attacked by the sudden appearance of the crack worm, and most of them became food for these underground evil beasts.
Only a few people escaped and disappeared.
They were lucky to meet Wang Yu and Miao Tong, otherwise they would never have survived.
When Miao Tong heard that they were people from Blue Star, she asked them to find Wu Zong's tower, and Wu Zong's people would help them return to Blue Star.
Several people were overjoyed immediately. The sect obviously couldn't take care of them anymore, and they had to find a way out and go back alive by themselves.
Wu Zong's appearance was their life-saving straw.
After pointing out the way to survive, Wang Yu and the other two continued to fly forward.
Along the way, they rescued several waves of people from the crack worm.
Wang Yu also fought with the crack worm for the first time.
The keratinous shell of the split worm is extremely hard, and the mucus on its body is full of corrosiveness. Overall, the physical strength is extremely high, and it has both speed and strength.
But the intelligence is limited. The eight blood-burning-level split worms and three qi-moving-level split worms he killed mostly rely on the instinct of eating.
When they met him and Miao Tong, they were basically killed instantly.
Half a day later.
In the No. 7 cave, one split worm after another seemed to have crawled out of the abyss of hell. They looked extremely creepy. They pounced on people and bit them madly, wishing to stuff all the flesh and blood into their stomachs.
There were martial arts disciples who fought fiercely with them, and the piles of split worm corpses on the ground were like a small mountain.
The unpleasant sour smell covered the entire area.
Ji!
The fierce roars of the split worms came one after another, mixed together chaotically, and the sharp sound was like the sound of nails scratching a blackboard, which made people shudder and feel uncomfortable all over.
There were a large number of split worms. Fortunately, all the disciples from Wuzong were inner disciples. Under the sweep of the innate energy, they forcibly suppressed all the split worms that came out of the cave and prevented them from running away.
Suddenly, several split worms that were several times larger and had sharp horns on their heads appeared, and they forcibly smashed the innate energy with their flesh.
Even several inner disciples of the innate realm who were close were knocked down and their faces changed.
"Brother Bai, the split worm king has appeared!"
A tall man was floating in the air, squinting his eyes and scanning the three large split worms with sharp horns like evil spirits.
That was the split worm king, whose combat power was comparable to that of a late-stage innate realm powerhouse!
