Chapter 613
byYang Kai quickly noticed that there was an additional barrier-like presence around.
He knew that Sun Ying should have activated the restriction set up last night to prevent any fish that slipped through the net from escaping.
Yang Kai furrowed his brows, faintly feeling that something was amiss.
“Enter！” Sun Ying, however, waved his hand and took the lead in walking in. The others also filed in one after another.
The mine cave was very deep, and the passages inside, due to years of mining, were also winding and meandering, with numerous forks.
In the places passed along the way, there were some gnawed marks on both sides of the corridor. The Sun Tin Ore exposed to the air had all disappeared, presumably devoured clean by those Gold Devouring Beasts.
These beasts fed on minerals. After eating those on the periphery, they delved deeper into the interior about several miles away from the cave entrance, and were also relatively scattered, which was very convenient for these people of the Solo Proud Alliance to capture one by one.
After walking for a short while, a fork in the road appeared ahead.
Sun Ying sensed for a while and then ordered, “Miss Yun, your team has the most people. Take this fork. With your strength, you should be able to handle it. The people in Xin Yu’s team are relatively few, so I have to follow them. If there is any accident or you encounter a situation you can’t handle, be sure to give a warning and I will come to the rescue as soon as possible.”
Yun Xuan nodded seriously and led the members of her team and Yang Kai to turn into the passage on the left.
“Miss Yun, be careful in everything.” That Zhou Luo reminded with a look of tenderness and affection.
Not getting any response, Yun Xuan seemed not to have heard. Ruan Xin Yu couldn’t help but sneer and looked at Zhou Luo contemptuously, humming, “Save your strength.”
“Alright, let’s also go in.” Sun Ying knew the emotional entanglements of these young men and women clearly in his heart and didn’t want to ask more. He waved his hand and led the others into the other side.
Walking a certain distance behind Yun Xuan, Yang Kai quickened his pace and caught up with her, asking softly, “That senior opened the restriction in advance. Will there be no problem？”
“What’s the problem？” Yun Xuan looked at him in surprise.
In this way, without him to lift the restriction, the gold-devouring beasts can’t escape, and neither can you get out, right? ”
“We are here to capture the gold-devouring beasts. Why do we want to get out？” Yun Xuan frowned and suddenly understood, “You are afraid that there will be any danger？”
Yang Kai nodded slightly.
Yun Xuan couldn’t help but laugh out loud. “You’re worrying too much. Ruan Xinyu and the others have been scouting here for over ten days, and Uncle Sun has also personally inspected the situation here. Naturally, they only opened the restriction in advance after confirming there was no danger. If we really encounter any trouble we can’t handle, Uncle Sun will come to help.”
Hearing her say this, Yang Kai didn’t dare to express his own opinion anymore. He just nodded slightly and didn’t say anything more.
Yun Xuan looked at him and then said softly. “It’s a good thing to be careful, but for a man, he should be a bit bolder so that he can achieve something.”
Because she was afraid that speaking too loudly would startle the Gold-devouring Beast, Yun Xuan not only lowered her voice but also brought her fragrant lips close to Yang Kai’s ear.
A wisp of intoxicating fragrance quietly drifted into his nose and mouth, and Yang Kai’s expression froze.
Yun Xuan was surprised, and her face suddenly turned a little red. She exhaled like an orchid and said. “Later, follow behind me. Don’t move until I tell you to.”
Yang Kai secretly wryly smiles. He thought to himself, did this young woman really regard him as a young and inexperienced teenager? Although he looked young, the things he had experienced over the years were countless.
“Captain!” ” Just then, the bearded man suddenly gave a soft shout. The seven or eight people in the squad all stopped in their tracks held their breaths, and stared intently at a corner in front of them.
From that corner, a chewing sound came. The spiritual consciousness was quietly released, and clearly a life breath could be felt.
“One.” Yun Xuan’s expression lit up with joy. “Good luck.”
“Hehe！” Ji Hong gave a strange laugh, rubbing his fists and palms together. The other team members also had excited expressions on their faces.
Under the gaze of everyone, Yun Xuan quickly made several gestures. Those team members understood tacitly, nodded one after another, and quietly crept out one by one.
Subtly, some delicate energy fluctuations were transmitted. Yang Kai saw that two martial artists were fiddling with something on the ground. They should be setting up a trap, and the others were on guard around them to prevent the movement here from being noticed by the Gold Devouring Beast.
Soon, it was completed over there.
Ji Hong looked back at Yun Xuan.
Yun Xuan nodded heavily.
Ji Hong had a hideous expression on his face, stuck out his tongue and licked his lips. Suddenly a one-zhang-long two-handed battle axe appeared in his hand. As soon as the battle axe appeared, a cold killing intent and a bloody aura burst out.
Ji Hong held the battle axe with both hands, strode out, and made a show of strength and swaggered in front.
The chewing sound suddenly stopped. Yang Kai clearly felt that the life breath at that corner had changed and was gradually becoming dangerous.
It should be Ji Hong’s provocation that made that Gold Biting Beast angry.
Dong dong dong… The ground trembled slightly, and it became more and more intense and fierce. Soon, a head with two horns and shining silver light suddenly appeared around the corner. Golden lights burst out between the two silver horns, with decent power and quite violent energy fluctuations.
Gold Biting Beast！
Yang Kai was also seeing this kind of monster beast for the first time. He fixed his eyes and looked over, and found that this monster beast was only about two zhang long and one zhang high. Its body was a bit bloated, like an enlarged fat bug. Its fat belly swayed from side to side while running. Although its body was large, its speed was not slow.
What made Yang Kai even more concerned was its body full of crisscrossing scales like ravines. The scales covering its body looked extremely strong and were not something that could be easily broken.
These scales wrapped its entire back and tail tightly like a tortoise shell, and only on the lower abdomen close to the ground were there some weaknesses.
When this Gold Biting Beast approached less than three zhang away, Ji Hong then turned his head and ran back.
He never planned to have a head-on confrontation with this six-step monster beast with thick skin and tough flesh.
“Here it comes! Here it comes!” Ji Hong shouted as he ran, with excitement shining on his face. The others were also extremely excited and secretly looking forward to it.
When passing by the position of the previously set trap, Ji Hong leaped over it with a single bound, but the sixth-order gold-devouring beast doesn’t know the mystery and wonder within. Its obese and bloated body directly trampled over it.
The warriors who had been prepared didn’t wait for Yun Xuan’s order and immediately activated the secret treasures buried in the trap.
Rays of brilliant light burst out from the ground, and energy like ropes shot out, completely wrap and bind the gold-devouring beast.
Its clumsy limbs were quickly bound, and the huge body of the gold-devouring beast flew forward more than ten zhang under the action of inertia before slowly stopping, plowing a ditch-like mark on the ground.
Destroy its two horns! Yun Xuan shouted shout and took the lead in moving. A force that couldn’t be ignored burst out from her body and she quickly rushed to the side of the gold-devouring beast.”
The other warriors also went forward one after another.
The golden light between the two horns of the gold-devouring beast was like a spiritual snake emerging from a cave, wreaking havoc in the mine cave. However, a sixth-order beast was only equivalent to a human warrior in the ghost and its attack didn’t cause any effective damage to Yun Xuan and the others.
In just over a dozen breaths, the extremely hard two horns of this gold-devouring beast were chopped off by Ji Hong with a big axe.
As if in unbearable pain, the gold-devouring beast let out a wailing.
Yun Xuan’s pretty face changed, and she quickly used her means to bind its mouth.
“Captain！” Ji Hong chuckled and handed the chopped-off horns to Yun Xuan like offering a treasure. Yun Xuan nodded slightly and took them and stuffed them into her Qiankun bag.
Due to the relationship between the physical constitution and the minerals it ate, the two horns and the whole body of armor of the Gold-devouring Beast were all good materials for refining weapons. “It’s so easy.” Ji Hong shook his big head, extremely proud.
“The intelligence of the sixth-order monster is not too high. We also set up traps, so it’s natural to capture it easily. If we fight it head-on, you will notice how difficult it is. Its armor is very hard, and the energy attack released between the two horns is not weak either. The impact force is even more terrifying. Ordinary Divine Movement Realm warriors are not its opponents. Moreover, in this mine cave, it is inconvenient for us to turn around, and it can exert all its strength. Never be underestimated unnecessary losses.
“Got it.” Ji Hong nodded heavily.
Yun Xuan pursed her lips and smiled： “Alright, let’s continue moving forward. Leave this one here and think about how to transport it back to Du’ao City when we go back.”
Everyone was high-spirited and full of energy.
Successively advancing inward for half a day, using the same method, Yun Xuan’s team easily captured three Gold-devouring Beasts.
During this half day, Yang Kai had been inactive.
It wasn’t because of Yun Xuan’s previous admonition, but because with the means of these people in Yun Xuan’s team, they were more than capable of capturing the Gold Devouring Beasts, and he didn’t need to interfere and make a move.
This time he came along mainly to return a favor to Yun Xuan. If he couldn’t obtain the reward and opportunity to return the favor here, he would just think of other ways and wouldn’t force it.
However, after observing secretly for a long time, Yang Kai knew that they couldn’t keep using this method to capture the Gold Devouring Beasts.
For one thing, the number of secret treasures used to set up the traps was not large. For another, not every Gold Devouring Beast existed alone.
Up ahead, the life auras of two Gold Devouring Beasts were very close. Alerting either one would arouse the vigilance of the other.
Sure enough, after Ji Hong, who went to scout for information, came back and told Yun Xuan about the situation, Yun Xuan’s beautiful eyebrows also wrinkled.
“How many Beast Binding Rings are left？” Yun Xuan looked at one person and asked.
“Three.”
“Set them all up.” Yun Xuan thought for a while and said.
“En.” That person nodded and, together with another martial artist, set up the three Beast Binding Rings in the passage in an orderly manner.
Everything was prepared properly. Still, it was Ji Hong who went to draw the snake out of its hole. After some provocation, the two Gold Devouring Beasts really took the bait and charged towards this side ferociously.
When they passed the first trap, the Beast Binding Ring emitted a bright light, but it didn’t have the same effect as before.
The impact force of the two gold-devouring beasts directly broke free from the binding of the beast-binding ring, with imposing momentum.
The second trap only slightly slowed down their speed. It was not until the third trap that one of them was successfully captured.
The remaining one was still charging towards Yun Xuan.
“Attack！” Yun Xuan showed no sign of panic at all. It seemed that everything was within her expectations. Hearing her order, the warriors hidden on both sides suddenly launched an attack, erupting with the brilliance of their martial skills and secret treasures.
