The sword is the devil

Chapter 324 Unexpected Change
After half a year of leaving, Hou Tiao returned to Crab Claw Island. The scenery is still the same, the island is still the same, and the stone house is still the same.

Even Chi Chi and her children are the same, except that there are a lot less.

Someone left a message at the magic circle of the stone house. It was one of the several island owners he had visited to pay a return visit, and a strange senior swordsman who passed by.

It looked calm.

As a cautious person, a person who always puts his life safety first, and a person with limited skill in battle, he can't judge whether someone has set up a trap here waiting for him during this period.

A real expert will not leave any traces casually so that he can identify the inspiration as soon as he comes back and take precautions. It may be possible in the future, but not now.

But he also has his own unique method, for example, the map of a thousand miles under the soil layer?

After visiting Crab Claw Island and seeing no abnormalities, he planned to make a final confirmation.

Randomly picked up the body in a grass field, the body instantly disappeared into the soil.After several years of practice, he has become deeper and deeper in soil skills. Now if it is ordinary soil, he can penetrate three feet deep into the soil, which is a very powerful skill.

Diving into the soil layer, he needs to do a comprehensive review of the map of the thousand miles of land, mainly about a dozen nodes in it, and then he can judge whether there are any strange air machines that have landed on Crab Island in the past six months, and whether there are possible traps .

The first node is unscathed; the second node seems to be displaced?But this may also be the impact of those earth-moving beasts. On Crab Claw Island, there are many earth-walking beasts that feed on long worms. It is not surprising that similar situations have happened.

At the third node, the air mechanism is wrong!It seems to have been reset by someone!But he is very familiar with his technique, this is definitely not his handwriting!

Realizing something is wrong, the first reaction is to leave the soil layer; for the soil traveler, the safety lies in the fact that the opponent does not understand the soil travel, if the opponent is also proficient in soil travel, and on such a narrow island, there will be a long time Arrangement means danger to him.

The trap is under the ground, and it must be returned to the ground and the sky as soon as possible.

But the change happened suddenly at this time. When he wanted to escape from the soil layer, it seemed that the soil layer above his head had a steel cover, and he couldn't escape!

The technique of earth escape is different from the method of earth beasts; it is not a hard chisel, but a human-shaped passage is left behind.

The practitioner's soil movement technique is to combine himself with the soil of the five elements, so that he can move forward without hindrance; it is like water and oil mixed together, they do not blend together, but they can communicate with each other.

Therefore, he felt that adding an iron cover on it was not really someone laying iron plates on it or turning the soil layer into an iron layer, but someone changed the nature of the soil, so that it would not work if he followed the previous escapism. .

The solution is actually very simple, just don’t use the earth dungeon anymore, learn the earth beast directly, and dig it up with violence and hard work!

The depth is only one zhang, half soil and half gravel, and there is no problem of breathing. This distance can only be dug through with a dozen swords.

But he can't dig because he doesn't know what's waiting for him out there!
The danger is not under the soil layer, but a blow to the head after rushing up!Or is it an enchantment?Or a fire pit?he does not know.

Under the soil layer, it is difficult to cast any effective spells with the ability of a monk in the three realms of reaching the sky, so Hou Tiao chose to hibernate and escaped quietly.

This was an embarrassing situation for him. A sword cultivator was forced into the soil, but he got in by himself.

This is the essence of fighting, everyone wants to do it in their own way, for the sword cultivator, the best way to deal with it is to hold him in the soil!

After escaping tens of feet, he felt the solid resistance again, not an iron cover, but an underground iron cage.

He still has a chance to give up on Tudun and dig through this iron wall with his sword, the consequence is to expose his exact position, he will never be able to dig underground compared to someone flying on the ground, it is a dead end.

After trying many ways, he finally determined his situation. He was locked in an underground cage with a radius of tens of feet. This cage used some kind of secret method to isolate the power of the earth, so that his earth escape would no longer work.

Moreover, this cage is still being closed!

It is conceivable that when the cage shrinks to a certain extent, he becomes a rat waiting to be slaughtered in the soil, with nowhere to escape.

It's not up, it's not on the side, and it's not down, it seems to be in a dead end.

Hou Tiao realized that he had come to a very critical moment, if he made a mistake and made a wrong choice, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

He doesn't know how many opponents there are?What realm?How many tricks are left waiting for him?From the very beginning, he fell into complete ignorance of the combat situation, unable to see it with his eyesight, and unable to transmit his spiritual sense.

He didn't want to force himself to make a choice when there was no way out. In that case, there would be few ways left for him. What else could he do but die?
...On the ground, a Taoist floated at a low altitude of thirty feet, waiting for the changes below.

In Lizhihai, he has many identities. He is the owner of the island, a member of the power, and a pirate... There is also a very special identity, a whaler.

Whalers are not real whalers. The sea long whales are huge in size and most of them live in the deep sea. Especially the whales and beasts are of a high level, so they cannot be dealt with by monks in the three realms of the sky.

The whaling mentioned here actually refers to the hunting of people; to put it bluntly, it is a group of killers who are responsible for making peace for people and eliminating disasters.

Some of the merchants in the mirage secretly maintain such a dark net system. With their deep financial resources, extensive contacts, and well-informed information, they quietly operate such an underground organization.

This is the real Li Zhihai. Under the superficial prosperity, there are chaos factors everywhere.

For them, no one here can kill the monks, as long as you are willing to bid.According to the state of the target, the level of strength, and the power background, everyone has such a price, the selling price.

Just like when he came to Xiejiao Island this time, the price was not low. Although he was only a cultivator of Tongxuan, the foundation of Quanzhen Sect made the price go up a layer.

He had been here for nearly a month, and he thought it might be a fierce battle in the air, but he didn't expect it to turn into an underground crush.

An accidental opportunity allowed him to discover the underground secret of Crab Claw Island. As an experienced killer, he immediately understood the significance of the existence of the map, so he resorted to tricks.

Killers, seldom are willing to fight face to face, they prefer to use special concealment methods, this is the difference between fighters and killers.

So the less popular Earth Dungeon is the standard equipment for many people in this industry, including him.

All that is left is to wait, and for him, patience is the basic quality of this line of work.
