black.

This is Tang Duk's first impression.

After entering the cave, they realized that their worst guesses about the cave were not far off the mark.

This kind of blackness is not simply darkened or the lights are blown out, but a kind of blackness that is so thick that it is depressing, as if it is breathless.

A few subdued screams came from somewhere in front of him, Tang Du opened his eyes wide and looked forward vigorously, but he couldn't see anything with his eyes washed by spiritual energy.

He turned his head back in fear, and it was clear that the hole they had stepped into just now turned into a small blurry halo in the distance, as if it was already far away in the sky.

For a moment Tang Du felt as if they had entered the mouth of a giant beast and were being swallowed by it bit by bit.

Cold sweat dripped down his forehead, Tang Du swallowed nervously, and immediately felt a palm pressed on his neck, the warm and cool feeling reassured him very much.Knowing that Shao Zhao was by his side, Tang Du somehow settled down.

Tang Du calmed down, and a piece of talisman paper appeared in his hand, bursting out a cluster of flames, white and bright light continuously emitted from the slowly burning talisman paper.Immediately, several clusters of spiritual lights lit up in the darkness ahead.

Tang Du originally thought that the front was empty, but only now did he realize that the other people were not too far away.In the middle are the members of Lingmu Sect and Qingfeng Sect, while the white robes of Guiyue Sect are at the front.

Even though they ignited the light, they still couldn't see the cave clearly. On the contrary, under the reflection of the spiritual fire, the cave seemed extremely dark.All I could see was black, the cave wall was black, and the road ahead was black. After walking for a while, when I turned around, there was only a thick black behind.This black made people feel gloomy, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.

The disciples of all sects all made their steps consciously heavier, perhaps in order to create a little movement of living people in this deathly dark and silent place.

The faint stench that could be smelled outside the cave before still exists in this cave.But it seems to spread evenly in every space, the source cannot be smelled but it cannot be ignored at all.

This symbolizes that the stench of death hangs over each of them like a huge shadow.

"what!"

Suddenly a disciple exclaimed, "What is there!"

As his voice fell, everyone froze in place, not daring to move.The surroundings were deathly silent.

The one who called out was a Guiyue Sect disciple walking in the front. The pitch-dark environment made people's nerves stretched to the extreme.He stared fixedly at the thick darkness ahead where he couldn't see anything with his eyes wide open, but it was as silent as stagnant water.

"Did you read it wrong..." someone whispered behind him.

Even he himself suspected that it was just a momentary illusion under his tense nerves... Sweat wiped from his forehead and stained his eyelashes, he finally couldn't help blinking,

"bass!"

The sharp sound of the sword pierced the stagnant water, and the disciple only felt a strong force hit his chest. He staggered back three or four steps, and subconsciously stabbed the sword forward before opening his eyes. When he opened his eyes, he found——

A white figure is in mid-air with a gigantic beast that does not know when it appeared. The body of this giant beast is unknowingly huge, and the lights lit by a dozen of them can only illuminate its frontal horns, full of grimaces. Teeth, a strong stench came from its mouth.

Normally, these disciples would never be so panicked, but this dark environment is too unfamiliar to them, and the psychological defense line is at stake. Even if the ordinary giant beasts arrive here, they will look ten times more terrifying.

Another Guiyue Sect disciple was also sweating profusely. If Su Yunhan hadn't noticed the giant beast's appearance from the darkness at the first moment, he would probably have been buried in the belly of the giant beast for no apparent reason.He grabbed his companion's arm: "Are you okay!"

The companion shook his head, looked at Su Yunhan who was fighting the giant beast alone, and gritted his teeth: "Let's go!" After saying that, he took the lead and jumped towards the giant beast with his sword, and the other immediately followed. The behemoth is trapped.

Zhang Da and Li He of Qingfengzong were scared back a few steps when the giant beast appeared suddenly, and mixed with the trembling people of Lingmuzong.

Seeing the Guiyue Sect and the two retreating the giant beast under the leadership of Su Yunhan, Li He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said happily, "Fortunately, Su Yunhan is in front of us..."

Zhang Da looked at the giant beast that couldn't see its outline clearly, and was a little scared, and his voice was uncontrollably weak: "Shall we go up...to help?"

"To help is to help," Li He opened his eyes and looked hard at the dark places where the light couldn't reach, "But you said...would it be more than this end..."

"Pooh! Crow's mouth..." Zhang Da wanted to cover his mouth before it was too late, and said nervously, "Then we... will guard them here against other monsters..."

The noise and fighting sounds from the front were also clearly transmitted to the end of the team, and the sharp "clang clang" sound of the sharp sword hitting a hard object echoed in the cave.

Although the fight was still far away from reaching the end of the team, Tang Du still grasped the sword nervously, trying to see the monsters that appeared in the distance.

Although monsters are evil, they take advantage of the geographical advantage of the environment.After a fierce battle between Su Yunhan and the three of them, the monster was restrained to death.

The sword light flashed across like snow, and the thick skin of the giant beast was cut with criss-cross marks, and blood spattered out from time to time.

Just when they were sure of the victory, a gust of wind blew, and the dim light in the cave dimmed. When it was lit again, the front was empty, and the monster disappeared out of thin air.

This was beyond everyone's expectations, Su Yunhan looked around vigilantly, the smell of blood in the air became stronger, but he couldn't tell where it was hidden at all.

"That monster actually hid!" a Guiyue Sect disciple said angrily.

"Always be on guard." Su Yunhan ordered.

Seeing the monster that appeared out of nowhere and then disappeared out of nowhere for no apparent reason, Zhang Da and Li He, who had just stepped forward a few steps, stepped back again and again, looking around in panic.

Fortunately, there are stone walls on the left and right sides of the cave, and it is impossible for monsters to come out from the side. There are people from the Guiyue faction in front of them blocking them, so they feel a little relieved.

The news from the front was very slow to spread to the back, and there were more than a dozen disciples of Lingmu Sect who were making a fuss in the middle.Tang Du looked forward impatiently, trying to figure out what happened.

The front turned into a seemingly empty black cave again, but they hesitated here, not daring to take a step forward easily.

The three members of Guiyue Sect held their swords at the front of the team, vigilantly guarding against the monsters scurrying out of thin air. Su Yunhan glanced back, and saw a group of disciples who didn't know which sect huddled together in a panic. The person who was served by the sect's disciples looked up at him in embarrassment, and then flinched imperceptibly with a smile.

At the end of the line was the arrogant young master of Lingmu Sect, with a blank expression on his face, and beside him was a young disciple of the Nine Immortals Sect who was looking nervously at him.

Su Yunhan turned his head back indifferently.

The Guiyue Sect disciple beside him complained in a low voice with some anger and helplessness: "We can't count on any of them! We are here to serve as bodyguards for others!"

Although the words were true, they still had to hold their swords and guard.

The monster didn't keep them waiting for too long.

"call"

A dull and loud voice suddenly sounded in the cave, and the expressions of the three of them froze at the same time, "Here we come!"

Su Yunhan's ears moved slightly. The voice of the monster seemed to be different from just now. He immediately raised his sword and raised his head to inspect the entire cave. The two juniors were still guarding the direction where the monster disappeared just now.

"The monster may rush out from somewhere else!"

Su Yunhan had just uttered this reminder, only to hear several loud cracking and roaring sounds instantly appearing in the cave... from the back!

The arrival of the exclamation was very delayed. The disciples who had just surged backward like waves of wheat because of the monsters that appeared at the front of the line, now pushed forward belatedly because of the monsters that rushed out from behind the line.

Everyone's attention was focused on the front just now, because they knew where they came from: outside the cave was a valley covered with fairy grass, and there were stone walls on both sides of the cave, and they had never encountered anything unusual before.

So everyone took it for granted that the danger came from the front, and Tang Du was no exception.

He was holding the sword and staring nervously at the front, and it was too late when he heard the sound of breaking through the air.When he grabbed the sword and turned around, two half-human tall black shadows rushed towards the stone wall, smashed hard on it, and let out a dull "bang".It's Shao Zhao!

There was a cold look on Shao Zhao's face, as if what he saw was not a living thing at all.

The monsters that rushed out from the end of the team were not huge, but they were faster than they could draw their swords, and the number was constant. With the sight blocked, it was impossible to know how many monsters like this were hiding in the darkness.

The sound of the monster hitting the stone wall was muffled and loud, making people's hearts vibrate.

The Lingmu Sect disciples in the last few rows pointed their swords at the back tremblingly, their faces pale as if they were about to faint on the spot.

The monster was like a black lightning when it charged, and it was also like a black lightning when it was reversed and hit the stone wall. As long as one missed, someone might be killed by the monster's claws.

Seeing the movement behind, Su Yunhan narrowed his eyes, and looked at Shao Zhao with a trace of imperceptible astonishment.

Seeing the continuous stream of monsters being smashed to a bloody mess, yet appearing again and again, never knowing where they would come out from in the next second, Tang Du grabbed his sword anxiously.

At this urgent moment, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and grabbed a stack of the most common talisman papers from his arms.

Tang Du picked up the talisman paper on the sword, swung the sword vigorously into the air, and recited the mantra, the flames exploded one after another.The talisman paper shot into the darkness burned, and dozens of flames illuminated a large cave as bright as day.

Following the bright light, everyone's eyes widened, and there were dozens of monsters attached to the stone wall.They seemed to be frightened by the sudden bright light, and their actions were delayed for a moment. However, at this moment, more than a dozen monsters were smashed towards the stone wall.

At this moment, the monster that had just disappeared in front of the team reappeared, but it was even more fierce than before.Seeing this, the returnees also shot the talisman into the depths of the darkness, revealing the huge figure of the entire monster.

The restoration of vision made everyone's hearts inexplicably settled. This monster is just a more ferocious monster than ordinary monsters, and they are all using this dark cave to hide.

The three members of the Guiyue Sect fell into the fight with the giant beast again, when suddenly two gray figures flashed past, and a disciple looked at the two Qingfeng Sect disciples who appeared below with some surprise.

Zhang Da and Li He nodded with a smile: "We...we will help you!"

Under the joint efforts of the five people, this giant beast was quickly vulnerable to a single blow. Its huge body crashed to the ground. It tried to get up with its forelegs, but it was hit by the sword again. Finally, its giant well-like eyes couldn't help but slowly closed. close.

And at the back of the team, Tang Du clutched his sword from nervousness and fear to eagerness to try and then to frosty indifference.

Shao Zhao dealt with all the monsters indifferently with a "shua, shua, shua". Looking back, Tang Du was staring at him with a pair of extremely resentful eyes.

Shao Zhao's heart thumped subconsciously, and he was at a loss for no reason: "What... what's wrong?"

The beautiful vision of showing off his heroic figure was broken into pieces, Tang Du was full of anger, but he couldn't say anything, his eyes were aggrieved and resentful.

At this time, several disappointing exclamations sounded at the same time. Zhang Da, Li He and two Guiyue Sect disciples stood on the giant beast, and together they used their swords to create a huge gap in the middle, but the inside was empty, only a strong rotten smell odor.

"Such a big monster doesn't have a monster core!" Li He couldn't help but marvel in disappointment, Su Yunhan frowned and glanced at the gap, his expression became colder.

They opened the gap wider to ensure that it wasn't the monster that grew the demon core elsewhere, but the fact is that they didn't even see the shadow of the demon core.

Zhang Da and Li He were extremely disappointed, and kept complaining in low voices.The faces of the other two Guiyue Sect disciples were also grim. After fighting hard for so long, they originally thought that the demon core of this giant beast was at least a very high-level demon core, but unexpectedly, there was nothing.

Su Yunhan's face was gloomy. They had only walked a fraction of the distance without knowing it. The most important thing right now was to stabilize people's hearts: "Treasures are naturally not so easy to get."

Although the words were simple, they succeeded in persuading everyone.People are always greedy and dissatisfied. They had no time to care about other things before, they just wanted to defeat the monsters, and after defeating the monsters, they wanted to get the monster core...

Zhang Dahan smiled and said: "Actually, this monster is not that scary, it was scared by this hole just now."

Li He also agreed: "The elder said that although there are some dangers here, it will definitely not exceed our capabilities, and it is true. We should not scare ourselves."

The two sang together, and everyone's emotions were calmed down.

In the back, Tang Du poked the monster wedged into the stone wall with his sword, and with a little force, the monster fell down with a loud noise.

This monster has four claws, the blades of which are as long as a human hand, and they look extremely sharp, not even inferior to the sharp swords in their hands.It is conceivable that this claw may take away a large piece of flesh even if it just scratches a person's clothes lightly.

Tang Du used his sword to open the monster's abdomen, but the inside was also empty, not even a small and dim low-level monster core could be found.

Fortunately, Tang Du had already expected it, so he didn't take it too seriously.

He just turned over the corpse of the monster curiously. The scales and claws looked very strange, and he had never seen it before.

Tang Du turned his head to look at Shao Zhao. Shao Zhao understood what he meant and shook his head: "I've never seen it either."

As he spoke, Shao Zhao suddenly took Tang Du's other hand and pulled him forward.Tang Du discovered that after a short rest, their "temporary team" was about to set off again.

The disciples of the Lingmu Sect didn't have time to turn around, just in time to see their young master holding someone's hand, the astonishment on their faces couldn't be hidden at all.Shao Zhao glanced at them coldly, and several of them turned cold and hurriedly turned to hide in the team.

In the darkness, Tang Du's face was a little red, he didn't understand why the other party acted so intimately, but also felt that he understood.My head was dizzy and swollen, but because it was a rare source of warmth in this dark and cold place, I was always reluctant to break free.
