Chapter 68 Underground Space

"What the hell is this?"

Fengyun touched the bright red stone with his hand, and felt a slight damp feeling on his fingertips.

After rubbing his fingers against the stone a few times, he brought them to his eyes.

He found that his fingertips were stained with a layer of light red.

Putting it on the nose and smelling it, the smell of blood became stronger.

"It can't really be blood, can it?"

Fengyun felt incredible.

It was really hard for him to imagine that there would be blood in such a deep underground.

Assuming that the stone is really blood, it must have been there for a very long time, but why hasn't it deteriorated, decomposed, and absorbed by the soil?

Fengyun is puzzled.

He decided to do it. Some questions cannot be answered just by thinking about them.

He pulled out the King Beast Tooth Knife and stabbed it into the bright red rock, ready to dig it open to see what happened.

However, before he could exert his strength, a very strange thing happened.

Some bright red liquid oozes out from the place pierced by the king beast's tooth knife.

At the same time, a stronger bloody smell rushed towards Fengyun.

"Is this red stone alive?"

Looking at the stone that was still oozing red liquid, a thought flashed through Feng Yun's mind that he himself thought was unlikely.

Do you want to keep digging down?

Feng Yun was a little hesitant, but this hesitation only lasted for a short time before he made a decision.

Dig, keep digging down.

If he gave up now, he might not even be able to fall asleep when he goes back.

He cleared the gravel from the stone to one side, revealing a space the size of a tabletop.

Pulling out the Wangshouya Knife, Fengyun carefully inspected the blade first, and found that it was only stained with some red, and did not suffer any damage.

Fengyun's heart finally completely let go.

If the King Beast Yaknife is damaged, even if the answer to the mystery is revealed, it will definitely not be worth the candle.

Although the King Beast Yaknife is a bit short, it is a bit powerless to hunt and kill those huge beasts, but this does not prevent Fengyun from liking it at all.

With it, it will be very convenient for him to do many things.

Fengyun inserted the Wangshou Yaknife into the red rock again until it reached the handle, and then cut out a square along the edge of the clearing he had cleared.

Insert your fingers into the side of the square close to you, and use force until both palms are completely submerged in the stone, and then lift up with force, lifting the entire stone like peeling off the skin.

Next, he continued this whole process, and soon a square passage appeared, close to that weird pipe.

When the depth of the passage was close to two feet, the king beast tooth knife piercing the stone finally felt different.

Fengyun's cutting action became more careful.

This time he didn't cut off the entire stone, but just cut out a circle the size of a teacup.

After the Wang Beast Yaknife finished cutting, Fengyun gently picked out the cut part with the tip of the knife, and a small hole appeared in front of him and penetrated.

The cave is not completely dark as Fengyun imagined, on the contrary, there is light inside.

Although it wasn't very bright, with Fengyun's eyesight, he could already see the inside quite clearly.

There was a big hole under the stone. As for how big it was, because the cut hole was relatively small, he couldn't see the boundary.

Directly below the small hole is a large pool filled with red liquid.

A pungent bloody smell gushed out from the small hole in front of Fengyun, and hit his face directly, making him frown uncontrollably.

He didn't look at it for a long time, and he put the cut stone back in just ten seconds or so.

Blocked the hole.

He crawled out of the passage, took off his clothes, packed a large bag of soil, covered the small hole he cut, and compacted it, and then he relaxed.

The peeping just now not only allowed Fengyun to see clearly the situation in the cave under the stone, but also allowed him to see clearly the true face of the light source in the cave.

They are not natural light, but emitted from the bodies of countless small creatures.

He is no stranger to this little creature, and can even be said to be very familiar with it.

They are the nail-headed worms that he used the blackthorn beast to trap not long ago, and used their breath to mix into the bone forest.

It's just that the nailhead worms he saw in the hollow were different from the ones he saw in the bone forest.

Their bodies are no longer ordinary black, but a strange bright red color that is still shining, making their bodies look somewhat transparent.

Feng Yun didn't know if these blood-colored nail-headed worms were of another species, or if the black nail-headed worms drank blood and mutated like the ancient tree.

He prefers the latter possibility.

After seeing the scarlet nailhead worms clearly, Feng Yun also saw clearly what they were doing underground.

They sucked blood from the blood pool, swelled up their bodies, and then crawled into a pipe next to the pool in groups.

This pipe is the pipe that Fengyun dug underground along it to find out.

At this time, Fengyun had guessed what the huge piece of jade that was connected to the root of the mutated ancient tree was.

It's a lair, the lair of the scarlet nailhead.

After thinking for a while, Fengyun crawled out of the tunnel he dug, and came to the place where the mutated ancient tree was connected to the scarlet nailhead worm's nest.

He pulled out the King Beast Saber, activated the power of the totem, and poured it into the blade.

The Wangshou Yadao immediately changed, showing a red light, and the blade began to glow red like a piece of iron that was being continuously heated.

In about a minute, the entire Wangshouya Knife turned crimson red.

Taking a deep breath, Feng Yun waved his hand and slashed at the root hair closest to him.

It passed by without the slightest pause.

Fengyun's hanging heart finally began to let go.

Imbued with the power of the totem, the sharper Wangshouya knife cuts off the roots very easily

The arm kept waving, and the roots were cut off one by one by the king beast's tooth knife.

At this time, Fengyun no longer wanted to figure out what the inside of the Scarlet Nailhead Worm's nest looked like, and how it mutated the dead ancient tree.

He can conclude that as long as he breaks through the worm nest, the bloody nail-headed worms will definitely come out of the nest, launching a merciless attack on him.

He is not willing to take any chances.

He had tested the attack power of the black nail-headed worms, and they couldn't harm him, but the blood-colored nail-headed worms were different. He hadn't tested their attack power, and he didn't want to test them.

He didn't want to risk his life.

Besides, it wouldn't do any good for him to do so, and it might ruin his plan to take away the mutant ancient tree.

Although Fengyun deliberately controlled the movement caused by cutting off the roots in order to prevent the scarlet nailhead worms in the nest from being disturbed, thus slowing down the speed of attack.

But after just five minutes, he was only one step away from success.

He cut off all the roots connected to the insect nest, leaving only the thickest one. As long as he cut off it, he could carry the mutated ancient tree and leave directly.

Before making a move, Fengyun stabilized his mind.

This root was much thicker than the other roots he had cut off, so it would be much more difficult to cut off, and it might cause even bigger disturbances.

"it's time."

Fengyun felt that his mood had completely calmed down, and he knew that the time to act had finally come.

The body leaned forward, and at the same time, Fengyun swung his arm violently, and the blade slashed towards the last root of the mutated ancient tree.

Fengyun's speed was extremely fast, the arm seemed to disappear, disappeared in a flash, and then appeared directly in another direction.

"Successful!"

Fengyun didn't even need to look to know that the thickest root had been successfully cut off by him.

He didn't hesitate anymore, he jumped up, and before the ancient mutated tree fell, he hugged it, and lifted it up out of the pit with his strength.

Without the slightest pause, he raised his foot on an ancient tree that was only half left, and flew forward.

In the next instant, the half of the ancient tree collapsed and turned into a pile of powder comparable to flour.

Fengyun's control over power has indeed reached a fairly high level.

The moment his foot touched half of the ancient tree, he evenly distributed the power to its whole body, not only obtaining the maximum reaction force, but also reducing the movement to the minimum.

Fengyun kept trampling on the ancient trees, using them as stepping stones, and shot towards the outside of the bone forest at an extremely fast speed.

Because the speed was too fast, some blurred afterimages appeared behind him, and they didn't completely dissipate until he was far away.

Landing on a boulder about ten feet away from the bone forest, Feng Yun couldn't help exhaling a foul breath.

However, before he could finish exhaling the turbid air in his chest, his expression suddenly changed, and he threw down the ancient mutated tree and rushed forward.

At the same time, his arm jerked back like a whip, and there was a harsh air-ripping sound.

"it hurts!"

The corners of Fengyun's eyes couldn't help twitching.

The body twisted vigorously in the air, turned 180 degrees, and faced the mutated ancient tree abandoned by him on the ground, his eyes revealed a strong look of guard.

Fengyun didn't fall directly from the sky, but continued to float backwards.

A small red dot suddenly shot out from the grass and went straight to Fengyun's face, like a bullet.

The speed was extremely fast, the distance of nearly ten feet seemed to be non-existent, and the red dot appeared in front of Feng Yun almost out of thin air.

There was a cold light in Fengyun's eyes.

A white light flew out from his waist, as fast as a lightning bolt, and struck the red spot directly.

Zheng!

The white light precisely hit the red dot, splitting it in two, but there was a sound of splitting hard metal, which shows that the red dot is very solid.

Feng Yun's body sank down suddenly, landed on the ground, and walked towards the red dot that was split in two, but the King Beast Saber in his hand was not put away, it was lying across his chest, his expression was still guarded.

As if to prove that Fengyun's caution was not unreasonable, when Fengyun was about a zhang away from the red dot that was split in two, half of the red dot suddenly moved.

Fengyun raised the knife subconsciously, but he quickly put it down again.

He had already seen the situation of the red dot clearly.

It was just the scarlet nailhead worm dying, not enough to pose a threat to him.

The red dot that attacked Fengyun just now was the bloody nailhead worm, but somehow it followed him to the outside of the bone forest and attacked him.
