Compared with the inner domain, the underground maze is much less dangerous, but that is only relatively speaking. This underground maze is inhabited by ghost beasts at the level of eight-star Martial King, and they are good at soul attacks. Unless you are a strong man at the level of nine-star Martial King, you are also in danger of falling.
As for cultivators like Yang Qi who are good at the soul, there are not many of them, and the possibility of him appearing here is too low.
"Then how can we leave here?" Yang Qi looked at Luo Yaowu and asked.
Although Luo Yaowu talked a lot about ghost beasts, he did not mention how to leave the underground maze in front of him. He still doesn't know how to leave here.
"It's very simple to leave the underground maze. You just need to find a cave with only two intersecting passages, embed a low-grade ghost crystal on the stone wall, and you can leave." Luo Yaowu said with a smile.
So simple
Hearing Luo Yaowu's words, Yang Qi was slightly stunned. He had not paid special attention to the stone wall at the intersection before, but he did not expect that it was the place to leave the underground maze.
“Although it is not difficult to leave the underground maze, any cultivator with a little strength will generally stay in the maze to hunt ghost beasts and obtain ghost crystals.” Luo Yaowu sighed and continued, “After all, once you leave, you will go directly to the inner realm. The opportunities in the inner realm are not so easy to come by.”
Upon hearing this, Yang Qi could not help but nod his head. The underground maze was less dangerous, but the opportunities were no worse than those in the inner realm. Unless it was a cultivator who found it very difficult to hunt a low-level Martial King-level ghost beast, most of them would choose to stay here to get opportunities.
The two four-star Martial King realm practitioners did not consume much vitality and recovered in a few hours. After they recovered, the group set out to look for the ghost beast.
With the addition of Yang Qi, with the strength of the team, the ghost beasts at the mid-level and low-level Martial King levels can be easily killed with almost no effort. The efficiency is greatly improved, but the consumption is reduced.
Bang! Bang!
In the passage, low muffled sounds were heard, and a huge ghost beast, after enduring several fierce attacks in succession, ran out of vitality and fell in the passage.
Poof!
Luo Yaowu broke open the dead ghost beast's head and took out the ghost crystal inside.
Yang Qi looked at Luo Yaowu who had taken out the Ghost Crystal Stone and said, "Brother Luo, my energy has been greatly depleted by the continuous soul attacks. I am afraid I need to stop for a while to recover the energy I have consumed."
"OK!"
Luo Yaowu nodded. Soul attack is not without any consumption. It will consume one's own energy.
"Brother Yang, it's a good opportunity for you to take a break and distribute the ghost crystals you've obtained during this period." Luo Yaowu took out a medium-grade ghost crystal and two low-grade ghost crystals and handed them to Yang Qi.
During this period of time, the four of them killed a total of four mid-level Martial King-level ghost beasts and eight low-level Martial King-level ghost beasts, and each of them was able to get twelve low-grade ghost crystals. It had only been more than an hour since Yang Qi joined the team.
In more than an hour, he actually killed twelve ghost beasts, including a ghost beast at the level of a mid-level Stone Martial King. Such a speed is really terrifying!
You have to know that Yang Qi had been dealing with low-level Martial King-level ghost beasts for more than an hour, and he only killed five of them. And when the four of them joined forces, it only took them half a cup of tea to kill a mid-level Martial King-level ghost beast.
Yang Qi put away the Ghost Crystal, and immediately began to sit cross-legged to recover his consumed energy. After only two or three hours, the consumed energy had been fully recovered.
There were many ghost beasts nearby, and the four people also gained a lot. During this period, they also met some other martial king practitioners, and even some high-level martial kings. Obviously, as Luo Yaowu said, the practitioners who had the ability to obtain ghost crystals did not choose to leave.
Boom!
Hearing the low muffled sound, Luo Yaowu couldn't help but frown and said, "There is a battle ahead. It seems that the ghost beast over there has been discovered by the cultivators."
Because of Yang Qi's joining, their speed in killing ghost beasts increased greatly, and they had to speed up the search. Fortunately, the underground maze was extremely vast, and they didn't know how many ghost beasts were hidden. However, because the passage was not too large, they heard the sound of fighting in the passage several times.
"Eh~"
Suddenly, Yang Qi uttered a sigh, looked into the depths of the passage in front of him, frowned, and said, "The sound of fighting seems to be getting closer and closer, heading towards our location."
"What are you afraid of? With Brother Yang here, we can just kill the ghost beast." Zhang Zhen chuckled.
After spending some time together, Zhang Zhen and his companions were extremely impressed by Yang Qi's methods. With Yang Qi around, they were not afraid of the ghost beast at all.
"My soul methods are not omnipotent."
Hearing Zhang Zhen's words, Yang Qi was a little amused.
The sounds of fighting in the passage were getting closer and closer. In the blink of an eye, a dishevelled figure appeared in the eyes of Yang Qi and the other three.
"Six-star Martial King."
Feeling the breath of that figure, the expressions of Yang Qi and the other three changed slightly. Generally speaking, even if a cultivator at the six-star Martial King level cannot defeat a ghost beast at the middle-level Martial King level alone, he should not be in such an embarrassing state.
"Could it be..."
Almost in an instant, a simultaneous thought flashed through the minds of Yang Qi and the other three. The beast that could make a six-star Martial King-level warrior so embarrassed must be a ghost beast at a high-level Martial King!
When the figure saw Yang Qi and the other three, his eyes lit up and he shouted, "Save me!"
Along with the figure's exclamation, a huge figure appeared in the sight of Yang Qi and others. The ghost beast in front of them almost occupied half of the passage. It was even larger than the ghost beast of the five-star Martial King level. It was clearly a ghost beast of the eight-star Martial King level!
"A ghost beast at the high-level martial king level."
Looking at the huge ghost beast that appeared in the passage, Luo Yaowu's face darkened and he shouted, "Retreat!"
Luo Yaowu once asked Yang Qi about the ghost beasts at the high-level Martial King level. With Yang Qi's soul means, he could only ensure that they would not be affected by soul attacks. But they still had to face the ghost beasts at the eight-star Martial King level. In the situation where both sides had lost their soul means, they were still no match for the eight-star Martial King ghost beasts.
Following Luo Yaowu's words, Yang Qi and the other three moved and prepared to evacuate.
Buzz~
However, before everyone could evacuate, a strong soul wave burst out from the ghost beast, and the escaping six-star Martial King was immediately frozen.
Poof!
The ghost beast opened its mouth wide and launched a fierce attack on the head of the six-star martial king. In an instant, the six-star martial king's head exploded. At the same time, the ghost beast rushed forward, opened its mouth wide, and swallowed the six-star martial king directly into its stomach. (To be continued)
