501. Underground Dark River

Jiutian's scalp was a little numb, he used to be most afraid of snakes, invertebrates, and felt disgusting and terrifying. However, since he had the Thousand Snake Vine Jade, his senses for snakes have improved a lot. But at this moment, the surrounding dense poisonous snakes, with red eyes glowing, showed hostility towards them.

He immediately felt that his fear of the creature like the snake had returned, and it was as if he had stepped into hell.

When Miao Yuze opened his mouth to kill them, Jiutian immediately hid behind Zheng Weiqi honestly and instructed the other party to never let any poisonous snakes get close to him.

Zheng Weiqi nodded immediately, protected Jiutian, pulled a knife flower with the dagger in his hand, and quickly cut off the head of a snake.

The venomous snake that had lost its head, its body was still writhing and curling up, and it looked like it was dead.

The attack in front of him immediately became irritable, and it was catapulted towards the combat team from all directions, and it looked like a volley of ten thousand arrows, which was extremely spectacular.

However, these poisonous snakes still could not pose a threat to the combat team, and the team members were not to mention experienced in a hundred battles, at least experienced, and kept cutting down the poisonous snakes.

A moment later, there was a dense mass of corpses on the ground.

The tunnel was quiet again, the attack of the poisonous snake did not stop everyone's footsteps, and after a simple rest, everyone continued to move forward and go deeper.

However, encountering these things twice in a row made everyone's attitude towards the Nightmare Root more serious, and now it is only able to parasitize and affect creatures such as snakes, rats, insects and ants, if it takes a little longer, and the Nightmare Root can parasitize the cultivators, it will be a real disaster.

Miao Yuze and Gu Liangsong both understood the seriousness of the situation, so they had to solve the matter of the Nightmare Root as soon as possible.

The tunnel continues downwards, and gradually, the surrounding layers begin to transition to rock formations, and the dirt begins to disappear into hard rock. This means that they are already deep underground.

Everyone walked forward, and at a certain moment, a huge underground space suddenly appeared in front of them, and the air gradually became moist.

"What's that?!"

Suddenly, a member of the team exclaimed and pointed ahead.

Jiu Tian followed the voice and looked over, and then his pupils contracted suddenly. It turned out to be a river of blood.

Under the illumination of the light, the river in front of me showed a strange red, like some kind of blood flowing, which was extremely strange and made people feel cold all over the body.

"It's not blood, it's the fluff of the nightmare root that grows at the bottom of the water. This is supposed to be an underground river. Miao Yuze observed carefully and explained.

Jiutian didn't feel strange at all about the appearance of underground dark rivers, Qingling Prefecture has abundant water sources, and he has long heard that there are many underground dark rivers, and this is obviously one of them. The water in the underground river is so gentle that you can barely feel the flow, and the surface of the water is calm and deep.

And on the opposite side of the dark river, a new tunnel appeared. Apparently they had to cross the river and go to the tunnel.

It's just that I don't know how deep this underground river is, so one of the team members took out a rope, tied it to a stone, and threw it into the water.

With a plop, the stone fell into the water, and the rope in the hands of the team members immediately lost a lot of money.

"At least three meters. The team's face was solemn, this dark river is not a shallow river, but very deep, and it must be swam through.

However, there is more than one bad news, as the stone fell into the water, the originally calm underground river suddenly "boiled", and a large number of black shadows floated up from the bottom of the water.

"What is it?" Miao Yuze turned on the lights to the maximum and shone on the surface of the river. Suddenly there was a glitter of scales. I saw a school of palm-sized fish surging in the water. The heads of these fish occupy two-thirds of their bodies, and they have sharp teeth in their mouths, and their eyes are red, apparently from the species that have been parasitized by the root of the nightmare. None of the people present had ever seen this fish, let alone its name.

Miao Yuze frowned, picked up a stone and threw it into the water with a thud, like a sharp sword, directly smashing a few big-headed fish that had no time to dodge. Immediately blood stained the waters. And those big-headed fish are even more crazy, devouring the corpses of their dead kind.

However, the crazier thing was still to come, and the stone that Miao Yuze threw down was bitten to pieces. Obviously, these big-headed fish, which do not look amazing, have a very terrible bite force, and can actually bite stones.

Now, how to cross the river has become a problem for the combat team. If it is on land, it is impossible for these fish to threaten everyone, but in the water, it is inconvenient to move, and if it is surrounded by such a big-headed fish again, I am afraid that even the combat uniform will not be able to withstand it, let alone the flesh mortal.

"Whoever has a good idea to come up. Miao Yuze asked for everyone's opinions, "Or we will send someone back to get the rope tool and swing it through the air." ”

Everyone began to think about it, but they didn't think of any good ideas for a while.

Gu Liangsong suddenly sighed: "If only something could lie across the river, we could walk over." ”

Hearing this, Jiutian suddenly had an idea and said, "If we can make the river freeze, we will not be able to walk over, and we will also be able to prevent the attack of these big-headed fish." ”

"Don't be whimsical, how do we freeze the river? It's not a low temperature here, and it's not easy to freeze the river. Gu Liangsong said helplessly.

"I have a way!" Jiutian suddenly unloaded his backpack, and when he followed everyone into the pit, he deliberately carried a large backpack, and no one knew what he was carrying.

Jiutian said, pretending to open the backpack, but in fact his consciousness had drifted to the plantation and took out a little something.

When Miao Yuze saw what Jiutian took out of his backpack, he couldn't help but be moved, and said in shock: "You brought a spiritual flow?"

Under the illumination of the light, two flashing blue aura currents appeared on Jiutian's hands, and there were crystals in them.

"yes, I brought some aura with me just in case. "Nine Heavenly Dao. These two spiritual currents are perfect-level frost spiritual currents, and they are the five that the stars ordered for him before. He had been storing it on the plantation and didn't expect it to be used today.

In fact, the reason why he carried a backpack was to find an excuse to cover up that he was taking things from the plantation.

If you want to freeze the river, you must quickly cool it down, and the action of the Frost Spirit can release a powerful cold air, which is enough to freeze the river.

The appearance of the frost spirit flow made Miao Yuze and the others feel high. He was not polite, and after thanking Jiu Tian, he took the spiritual flow and went to the side of the underground dark river.

The plug of the spiritual air flow was pulled off, and it was immediately thrown into the river horizontally by Miao Yuze, one far and one near.

Almost instantly, a chill erupted from the bottom of the river, and the entire underground river seemed to freeze suddenly.
