Hearing Liu Qian's words, everyone couldn't help but smile bitterly. They hoped that there were other swarms of blood thorn worms, but they hadn't investigated yet, so no one could say for sure whether there were other swarms of blood thorn worms!
Seeing this, Meng Xuan at the side couldn't help but say, "The shattered star in front of us is just a small fragment near Qianhuiyuan. There shouldn't be too many blood thorn insects here, and we are just trapped in a formation, so there are even fewer blood thorn insects in the formation."
If you were in Qianhuiyuan and got caught in the natural formation set up by the blood thorn worms, it would be extremely dangerous. Because there were too many blood thorn worms there, a group of blood thorn worms might be hundreds or even thousands, unless you had absolute strength, it would not be easy to break through the formation and leave.
However, the broken stars in front of them were not Qianhuiyuan after all, but just small fragments near Qianhuiyuan. Naturally, there would not be too many blood thorn insects here.
"I hope so." Liu Qian sighed slightly.
After that, everyone took a short rest, then dispersed and began to investigate the large formation in front of them, looking for other possible bloodthorn worm groups.
The large formation before them was a natural formation set up by blood thorn worms. It not only had the effect of trapping and confusing the enemy, but also had a certain impact on time and space. Therefore, everyone was extremely careful when investigating the formation.
Because they knew there were blood thorn worms in one direction, when they investigated, they avoided the direction where the blood thorn worms were and investigated in other directions. However, after the investigation, they did not find anything else.
After some investigation, everyone gathered together. After summarizing everyone's investigation results, Meng Xuan couldn't help but smile and said slowly, "It seems that we are lucky. There are only two groups of blood thorn insects in this formation. Once we kill the first group of blood thorn insects, it will be much easier to break the formation."
Um
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes lit up. This was definitely the first good news they heard after being trapped in this formation. There were only two groups of blood thorn insects, which meant that they didn't have many enemies to face.
Seeing everyone's obvious relief, Meng Xuan said in a deep voice, "Although we only need to deal with the previous group of blood thorn insects to have a chance to break through the formation and leave, the strength of that group of blood thorn insects is not weak, so we must not be careless."
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but nodded. Although the previous sneak attack was effective, there was still a big gap between the strength of their team and the blood thorn worms. Now is not the time to be careless.
"Brother Meng, our next step is to investigate the formation?" Yang Qi looked at Meng Xuan and said.
"good."
Meng Xuan nodded and continued, "Next, everyone continue to investigate the formation and prepare to break it."
Although the absence of other blood thorn worm swarms was good news, even if they killed all of them, they still had to break the formation before they could leave. Therefore, investigating the formation in front of them was an urgent matter.
Next, everyone dispersed again and investigated the large formation in front of them. However, the large formation in front of them was a natural formation formed by blood thorn worms by devouring underground minerals and changing the environment. So after an investigation, everyone did not gain much.
Yang Qi's eyes fell on Meng Xuan who was not far away, and he said helplessly, "Although after some investigation, we roughly know the boundaries of the formation, but even if we try to change the environment at the edge of the formation, it will have no effect on the entire formation."
After a few days of investigation, their gains were limited, but they also tried to directly change the environment to break the formation, but unfortunately they did not succeed.
"We have only investigated a part of the formation. Moreover, there are blood thorn insects in the formation. These blood thorn insects control the formation. It is still too early to break the formation from the inside." Meng Xuan said helplessly.
During this period of time, the range they explored was only more than half of the range of the formation in front of them, and they could not explore the range occupied by the group of blood thorn insects at all. Therefore, they seemed to understand some of the formation in front of them, but in fact, they only understood part of it.
Being trapped in a formation and wanting to break it with only a partial understanding of it, it would be impossible for them, the practitioners, to do so even if there was a strong person who was good at formations, to do so.
Hearing Meng Xuan's words, Yang Qi and others couldn't help but nodded. They also understood that it would be a bit too hasty to want to break the formation now.
"Next, we will continue to launch sneak attacks on the blood thorn worms. Once they are completely eradicated, we can investigate the areas occupied by them. Once we have a comprehensive understanding of the formation, it will be much easier to break the formation without the control of the blood thorn worms." Meng Xuan said slowly.
Five days were almost up, and everyone began to prepare for the second sneak attack. After the side effects of their secret technique had passed, they rushed towards the area where the blood thorn worms were.
However, this time, the crowd did not rush towards the direction of the first sneak attack, but approached from another direction, intending to launch a sneak attack on the blood thorn worm swarm from another direction.
Wow~
In the blood-colored mist, a figure solidified. It was a four-star Martial Emperor under Meng Xuan. This person was good at hiding his whereabouts, so he was responsible for investigating the blood thorn worms at close range to prepare for this sneak attack.
Looking at his returning companions, Meng Xuan quickly asked, "How is it?"
"The blood thorn worms have dispersed, but the blood thorn worm group seems to be much more vigilant." The visitor said in a deep voice.
Are you more vigilant
Hearing the words of the visitor, Yang Qi and others frowned, but this was also within their expectations. After all, it had only been a few days since the last sneak attack, and it was impossible for the blood thorn insect swarm to completely relax their vigilance in such a short time.
If they stayed aboard for a few months or even a few years, the blood thorn worms would definitely relax their vigilance completely, and then they could launch a sneak attack, and perhaps achieve the same success as the first sneak attack. However, everyone came to the depths of the Blood Soul Sea to seek opportunities, so a few days of delay would not matter, as there would still be gains from killing the blood thorn worms. But if they delayed for a few months, even a few years, or even longer, it would be equivalent to giving up other opportunities, and everyone would obviously not agree to it.
Therefore, even though they knew that the bloodthorn worm swarm would not completely relax its vigilance in just a few days, everyone had no choice but to launch a second sneak attack, otherwise they would miss other opportunities.
Meng Xuan's eyes focused, and he said in a deep voice, "The situation is similar to what we expected before. This time, our goal is to maintain the first place and fight for the second place!"
The so-called "guarantee one and fight for two" means to ensure the killing of one blood thorn worm, and strive to kill two blood thorn worms. As for three, no one dared to think about it. After all, during the first sneak attack, they only killed two blood thorn worms and were almost entangled by the blood thorn worm swarm. At that time, the blood thorn worm swarm was not on guard, but this time the blood thorn worms were on guard, so there was no way they could kill them. (To be continued)
