Chapter 121 - Cornered

Deep in the mine tunnel, it has been completely submerged by sea water.

Ye Fan swam out from the groove of the mine tunnel, looked at a large hole in the rock wall of the mine tunnel, and took a few glances at the underground river outside.

It is a very narrow underground mountain wall river, probably formed by underground cracks at the bottom of the island.

This kind of very hidden underground river can only be discovered by the turtle beast who has settled on the bottom of the blue water sand island for a long time.

What surprised Ye Fan was that the entire underground river was not dark and gloomy. There were a lot of blue water sand on the mountain wall, there were large pieces of rich ore, and there were also a lot of loose sand and gravel, which almost illuminated the bottom of the river.

"Unfortunately, this underground river is completely submerged by sea water, making it difficult for miners to dig ore in this river. Otherwise, this underground river would be a small rich mine, enough to make Wanbao Chamber of Commerce a huge fortune."

Ye Fan quickly thought about whether he should take the time to dig those large blocks of rich ore, but he quickly shook his head and rejected the idea.

Blue water sand is a water-based weapon refining material that can be used to refine Xuanshui swords of various grades.

But he has not awakened the water bloodline, and has no plans to refine the Xuanshui Sword for the time being. Although blue water sand can be used as a material to sell some elemental stones, it is too heavy and cannot be sold for much money.

He might as well write down some low-level runic combat skills and sell them for a small amount of money, which would be more convenient and faster.

Of course, he can also write high-end and top-level rune combat skills, but he doesn't want to cause a lot of trouble to himself. There are so many high-level top rune peepers, and with his weak strength at the current level of the Martial Master Stage, he will only be trapped in dealing with all kinds of troubles.

Therefore, he now only uses the truly top-quality runes for his own use and does not sell them to outsiders. If you need Yuan Stone, you only need to write some low-level ordinary runes and sell them for a little money.

Moreover, for Ye Fan, how to earn Yuan Stone safely and securely is not something he has to consider now.

For him, the top priority now is to do everything possible to improve the level of cultivation in Wu Zunqi. Improving one's own cultivation and combat effectiveness is the greatest security guarantee for oneself.

Everything else is empty, no need to waste time.

Ye Fan immediately turned around and returned to the mine tunnel, swam quickly towards the top of the mine tunnel, chasing the Turtle Beast Lord. This turtle beast had already been drained of blood by him twice. He didn't learn his lesson and actually dared to carry out a sneak attack on the mining village.

It seems that this turtle beast is very experienced in sneak attacks on mines. It can even detect hidden flaws in the mine tunnels.

Ye Fan chuckled, this time he had to give it a deeper lesson. Take 50% of its energy and blood? Or 60% Qi and blood? Let it stay peacefully in the sea for a few more days.

...

"Where is Mr. Ye?"

The thin Wu Zun ran desperately towards the mine tunnel. After running for a while, he suddenly realized that Ye Fan was missing and couldn't help but look behind him. Only a few young and strong miners tried their best to follow him, but there was no sign of Ye Fan.

"I didn't see it! He just told us to run first and he stayed at the back."

"Could it be that he was washed away by the sea water?"

Several miners were running out of breath. When asked by the thin Wu Zun, they realized that Ye Fan was missing. They looked around quickly and shook their heads.

Deep in the mine tunnel, the surging sea water and the excited screams of sea animals could be heard.

"It seems that he was eaten by a sea monster! In just a short time, we lost a Martial Lord! I don't know how long our remaining three Martial Lords can last."

The thin man Wu Zun was holding the black gold sword, his scalp was numb, and his heart suddenly felt desolate.

"Lord Wu Zun, let's escape up there! After fighting with Lord Lu, there is still hope that we can hold on to the mine tunnel! As long as we survive this full moon night and the beast tide outside recedes, there will be no danger!"

Several miners hurriedly advised.

The thin man Wu Zun was slightly energetic, and he and the miners rushed upward with all their strength.

Behind them, the roar of the sea beast kept chasing them.

Soon, they escaped to the top of the mine tunnel. In the upper passage of the mine tunnel, more than 200 miners and two martial arts masters, Lu Guang and Pang Dun, were crowded.

When Lu Guang saw the thin Wu Zun running back with a few miners, his expression changed, and he ran over in a flash, shouting: "Second brother, what's going on down there? And, where is that kid Ye Fan?"

"Brother, Mr. Ye and I just rushed downstairs, and before we had time to block the leaking mine tunnel, a sea monster collapsed a big hole in the mine tunnel, and a large amount of seawater poured in. I didn't dare to stay down there, so I hurried up. Run. The sea water was pouring in too hard, and I couldn't see clearly what kind of sea monster it was. Mr. Ye seems to be at the back, and I'm afraid the situation is already in danger now."

The thin man Wu Zun hurriedly told him everything he knew.

"Damn it, without one Martial Lord, our strength will be weaker! We can't control so much now, so prepare to fight! Either it will die tonight, or we will die!"

Lu Guang's face was ugly, he pulled out a black fire knife on his back and pointed it towards the depths of the dark mine tunnel.

The thin Wu Zun and the fat Dun Wu Zun also hurriedly stood on both sides of Lu Guang, pulling out their respective black gold swords and black earth sticks, preparing to fight against the sea beast.

This mine tunnel is very narrow, only about two feet wide and high.

The remaining two hundred or so miners were hiding in the long mine tunnel behind them, all of them pale with fear. In this kind of battle between the Martial Lord and the Beast Lord, low-level warriors like them can hardly help.

"Ouch~!"

A black beast shadow nearly ten feet tall climbed up from the depths of the mine tunnel. It carried a thick carapace on its back and walked slowly and slowly on all four legs.

Its small eyes scanned the three Martial Lords fifty or sixty feet in front of them, and when it recognized them, it immediately showed disdain.

"Turtle Beast Lord!"

"How could it be it?!"

The three martial arts masters, Lu Guang, Slender Man, and Fat Dun, took a breath of cold air almost at the same time, and took a few steps back with horrified expressions.

Over the years of guarding Blue Water Sand Island, they have fought against the Turtle Beast Lord not just once or twice, but no less than seven or eight times.

The defensive power of the turtle armor of this turtle beast was too strong. They had joined forces to besiege the turtle beast several times, but every time the three of them failed to take advantage at all, instead they were beaten to disgrace.

Later, they no longer dared to leave the mine village easily.

If the turtle beast came to attack the mine village, they would hide directly in the mine tunnel and block it out with the help of huge rocks and heavy iron doors. When it runs out of energy, leave alone.

Unexpectedly, this time the Turtle Beast Lord came directly from the underground river, broke through the wall of the mine tunnel, and rushed in. Instead, it blocked a group of them in this small mine tunnel like making dumplings.

"Zhizhi, it's you~... three losers~! You three... are no match for me, and there is a kid. Where is he hiding? That kid has a pair of wings and is always flying around in the sky. Fly, I can't hit him. Now, let's see where he flies in the mine tunnel~wahahazhizhi~! I will crush him to death, crush him to death!"

The turtle beast stared with a pair of small eyes. When it thought of its proud place, it raised its turtle head high and burst into a sharp and weird laugh.

Lu Guang couldn't understand what it was saying, what kind of wings it was, it was flying around in the sky. He waved the Xuanhuo Knife, his face was gloomy, and he said angrily: "Zun Turtle, if you want to fight, fight, how come there is so much nonsense!"

The Turtle Beast Lord immediately opened his mouth, and in his mouth, a stream of blue water vapor quickly condensed into a foot-long water arrow.

"Poof!"

The water arrows shot towards Lu Guang and the three martial arts masters.

The mine tunnel is only two feet in size, and this section of the mine tunnel is straight, making it impossible to dodge.

"The first form of "Fire Burning Sword Technique", splitting mountains with force!"

Lu Guang shouted loudly, and clasped the Xuanhuo sword in his hand with both hands. The fire energy was poured into it, and the blade suddenly ignited with a fierce and blazing flame more than a foot high.

The temperature in the mine tunnel suddenly rose sharply, becoming extremely hot.

Lu Guang swung his mysterious fire sword and slashed at the water arrows that were coming towards him.

 "boom!"

His Xuanhuo sword accurately struck the tip of the water arrow, turning the powerful water arrow into a mist.

Lu Guang was also shocked by the huge power of this water arrow. He took a step back, but was not injured.

 "good--!"

"Master Lu is so strong, this move is extremely skillful!"

The supervisors, foremen and miners who were watching the battle behind the three warriors suddenly burst into excited cheers and cheers.

But Lu Guang, the thin man, and the fat man didn't look proud at all. Instead, they looked extremely depressed.

They had fought against the Turtle Beast Lord many times, and they were already very familiar with the Turtle Beast Lord's fighting methods.

Turtle Beast Lord's water bloodline is very strong, and he likes to use this kind of water arrows to consume the opponent's strength. After the opponent's strength is exhausted, it will use its extremely hard turtle armor to crush it in close combat.

The three martial masters only know the melee rune combat skills, but the turtle beast master has both long-range beast charms and melee beast charms, and is very skilled.

However, the terrain of the mine tunnel is extremely beneficial to Turtle Beast Lord's long-range and close combat methods.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Sure enough, the Turtle Beast Lord opened his mouth and sprayed out dense water arrows, passing through a distance of tens of feet, and continuously shot at them.

This mine tunnel is extremely narrow, and there is no way to dodge.

The three of them had no way to dodge or rush past, so they could only bite the bullet and take the attack, resisting the water arrows that were constantly being fired, and fell into a difficult situation that they were tired of dealing with.

The miners behind them didn't know their true situation, thinking that they were evenly matched against the turtle beast, and kept cheering loudly for them.

"Damn it! This turtle beast is too cunning. It wants to consume us alive here!"

Lu Guang was very worried.

The combined vitality of the three martial masters in their early stages was not as abundant as that of the turtle beast. In this mine tunnel, they competed with each other to consume their vitality. They were defeated but not victorious. Once their vitality is exhausted, it will be their death!

They have nowhere to escape. The tide of the moon has not passed yet, and there are more than a dozen sea beasts on the island outside the mine tunnel, fighting for territory and the highest position to absorb the moonlight.

If you go out and be surrounded by all the sea beast masters, it will be worse than dying in the mine tunnel!

Fat Dun Wu Zun waved his black earth stick and blocked a water arrow. "Bang!", the water arrow was scattered with a stick. However, he was also knocked back half a foot by the huge impact of the water arrow, and said sadly: "Eldest brother, second brother, it seems that the three of us brothers are going to die on this mining island today!"

The thin Martial Lord was also miserable, "If I had known that I would die in the mine today, why would we bother with the few yuan stones in the mine? We might as well stay in the prosperous place of Donglai City! No matter how many yuan stones we earn, we have no life to spend!" "

Lu Guang, however, couldn't say a word. He waved the Xuanhuo knife desperately and blocked the powerful bombardment of nearly a dozen or two water arrows. He suffered internal injuries and stumbled back. Finally, he couldn't hold on anymore and "Puff" spurted out. A mouthful of blood came.
