There is no road at the end, but the underground river under your feet is still flowing slowly.

This shows that water can still flow out from here.

Su Hai squatted down, dived into the water, and held the fluorite to the bottom of the river.

There are still cracks underneath the river, and the river water flows out from the cracks underneath.

However, humans cannot get through this crack, and small animals such as cats and dogs have no problem.

"Such a big spring should be the Bird's Beak Spring. There is light on the other side of the crack, so it should be the outlet of the spring."

Su Hai had an inexplicable confidence, although he had no evidence.

Peeta also put his ear against the stone wall in front of him, listening carefully to the movement deep inside the stone wall.

"There are some vague sounds, but I don't know if they are caused by the water flow or the footsteps of the beast tide..."

Peeta couldn't determine the type of sound, because the Bird's Beak Spring itself was among the rocks at the foot of the mountain, and the water outside the spring gathered into a stream. It was not a passable road, and it was impossible to produce direct footsteps.

Even if there is a tide of beasts passing by here, it is still far away from the spring. Even if the footsteps of the beast tide are astonishingly loud, it will be very weak when it reaches the stone wall. It is basically difficult to distinguish due to the interference of the sound of the spring water.

Su Hai sighed: "It's a bit troublesome... I can't be sure if this is Bird's Mouth Spring."

"It must be the Bird's Beak Spring. You'll know if you dig it up and take a look."

Su Hai is still confident.

Peeta couldn't help but glance at Chu Yang: "It takes a lot of effort to dig out such a thick stone wall. If there wasn't Bird's Beak Spring outside, wouldn't Brother Chu have spent so much energy in vain..."

Su Hai laughed: "Then you underestimate Brother Chu. It's just digging a small tunnel in the rock. How much energy does it take? Think about the time when we were still ghost cultivators... ahem, digging holes is still necessary anyway. It’s quite relaxing.”

Su Hai also knew the characteristics of the flying hammer. This thing was not a treasure in the underworld, and no one in the small world of the Wu Clan could use it. But in Chu Yang's hands, it was a great artifact.

Using a flying hammer to make holes, the rocks turned into tofu, but they were not much harder than tofu.

Chu Yang gently swung the hammer head, which weighed hundreds of kilograms and accelerated. It was not difficult to cut mountains and rocks, it was about as easy as a monk using a magic weapon to open a hole.

Su Hai felt that it would be easy for Chu Yang to dig a hole and try it. Even if it wasn't Bird's Mouth Spring outside, it would still be at least a hundred miles east of Black Dragon Pond.

If the team travels through the underground river, they can travel this far in one day, which will definitely save several times, or even dozens of times, the time compared to crossing the beast tide on the ground.

So it's worth digging an exit no matter what.

Chu Yang understood this and had already decided to open an exit here, but he was not in a hurry to dig a hole.

Just because Suhai and Peeta couldn't see what was going on outside didn't mean he couldn't see it either.

He let go of his consciousness, passed through the gap in the water, and quickly appeared outside the rock.

There is indeed a spring outside, or rather a spring.

The shape of the mouth of the spring is a bit like a bird's mouth. A triangular rock protrudes slightly and is surrounded by a circle of gaps, just like the bird's mouth is slightly open, and water flows continuously from the bird's mouth.

"It's Bird's Beak Spring."

Chu Yang made his judgment without hesitation. Although he had never been to Bird's Mouth Spring, such obvious features completely matched the name of Bird's Mouth Spring.

Su Hai and Peeta were suddenly excited. Although they didn't know why Chu Yang was so sure, they absolutely believed in Chu Yang's judgment.

A few meters below the spring is a small stream. Water from the underground river is continuously injected into it, supporting the stream to flow into the distance and becoming one of the water sources in the mountains.

Chu Yang's spiritual consciousness can only detect the distance of tens of meters, and it cannot detect the situation dozens of meters away from the spring.

So he had no way of knowing whether there was a tide of beasts around.

If he wanted to dig a passage from here, he had to consider a safe exit.

Otherwise, if the exit is opened at the wrong location, and the beasts will discover it as soon as it goes out, then this underground passage will be useless.

This layer of rock is not thick, and is only a dozen meters away from the outside. Chu Yang's consciousness circled half a circle outside, and he had the three-dimensional shape of the entire spring in his mind.

After thinking for a while, he decided to dig a passage diagonally upward and make a simple staircase.

It would take more than ten meters to dig a hole like this, but it made no difference to Chu Yang.

After deciding on the plan, Chu Yang didn't waste any more time and immediately picked up the hammer and started working.

"Su Hai, hurry up and go back. Let Gu Qi and the others set off immediately and get here as early as possible."

"good."

Su Hai also wanted to bring the good news back as soon as possible, which could not only reduce the waiting time for Gucci and others, but also encourage the team earlier.

"The fluorite I dug is all over the passage. You try to take some with you when you go there to make it easier for everyone on the way."

Chu Yang dug holes again and again and explained: "Also, the Bird's Mouth Spring should also be within the range of the beast tide, so I will continue to explore the large channel of the underground river later. When you return here, don't be anxious. Let’s go out from Bird’s Mouth Spring and take a rest while sending someone to find me... I plan to find another exit in front.”

"I see."

Su Hai nodded repeatedly.

If you can continue to look for an exit to the east, it will definitely be better than going out from Bird's Mouth Spring.

Whether there is a beast tide outside the Bird's Mouth Spring or not, the mountain road outside is definitely not as easy to walk as the underground river.

So Chu Yang needs to continue exploring, and the exit dug here at the Bird's Mouth Spring can be used as a backup option.

If they really can't find an exit in front, they will consider leaving from the Bird's Mouth Spring.

Su Hai had no objection to Chu Yang's arrangement, took the task, and immediately left the crack quickly.

Chu Yang worked hard to dig a passage, and an hour later, a tunnel-like passage appeared in the stone wall next to the crack.

The exit of the tunnel is at the top of the rocky peak, and there are also several messy rocky peaks around.

Of course, wild beasts will not run to these mountains for no reason, so the exit is safe and hidden.

Chu Yang walked up the stairs to the cave entrance, and then looked around.

It was still dark outside, and the Bird's Mouth Spring was indeed within the range of the beast tide.

The surrounding forests were full of beasts, including those hillsides with low terrain, which were also densely packed with wild beasts.

Some beasts are fighting and hunting, but more beasts are busy on the road.

They are looking for a place to live, which is also an instinct of animals.

The environment with beasts everywhere like now is obviously not suitable for the survival of beasts.
