Bai Qiyun kept moving forward along the familiar waterway. As expected, Bai Qiyun found traces of the exploration team next to the pool.

It's just that their current mental state seems far from what Bai Qiyun had in mind.

Especially Zhiqiong, if Jinwu hadn't been watching from the side, he might have rushed out on his own like a wild horse.

Fortunately, no one seemed to have been hurt.

"You guys look quite energetic."

The sudden appearance of the young man's voice in the cave startled several people, and they did not relax until they saw clearly that the person coming was Bai Qiyun.

"Isn't your character a bit too bad?"

Among the few people, only Ye Lan felt the need to mock Bai Qiyun, who was deliberately trying to be scary.

She shook her bangs and her eyes fell on Kritov, who was being held in the boy's hands like a little chicken.

"So, who is this guy?"

Bai Qiyun put down Kritov in his hand, and before he could open his mouth, Jin Wu walked over.

She knew this man.

"Isn't this the guy from the treasure stealing group who sells counterfeit medicine? Sir, why did you bring him here?"

Hearing that Jin Wu had exposed his background, Kritov smiled sheepishly and wished he could shrink into a crack in the ground.

"Fake medicine?"

Hearing this, Bai Qiyun raised his eyebrows.

He hadn't heard those people say anything about it.

"Yes, he often sells drinks with special functions on the surface, but in fact they are just sugar water. But the price is reasonable and it tastes good, so no one cares about it. After all, it is okay to buy drinks from outside.

It's a very troublesome thing, so everyone just turns a blind eye."

Of course, this is based on the premise that Kritov did not cause trouble to everyone, otherwise the Qianyan Army would have arrested him long ago.

"Oh, I didn't expect this guy to have such ability."

Although Bai Qiyun didn't think the drink prepared by this person was very delicious, the fact that it could be mass-produced in a place like this showed that this person must have a better understanding of the distribution of raw materials than everyone else.

There is no water source close to the surface of the Strata Abyss. Where did this person get the water?

Facing the boy's slightly strange gaze, Kritov smiled without saying anything.

"Forget it, it's not about the drinks that I brought this man here anyway. He can prepare explosives. I want to use the artillery you mentioned before to blow up the hole blocked in front, just in time -"

Before Bai Qiyun finished speaking, the pool beside him suddenly surged, and several water slimes flew out of the dark water and ran toward a few people.

Although slimes are just a group of monsters that can be seen everywhere, they cannot be allowed to attack humans at will.

In desperation, Bai Qiyun had to stop his statement and pointed his finger at these little guys who were disturbing people's leisure time.

"Do you know that it is very impolite to interrupt someone else when they are talking?"

Since the opponent had a water attribute, Bai Qiyun simply switched his power to star power. Although it was a bit expensive, it was more effective against this group of guys.

Silvery white light suddenly appeared in the dark mid-air, illuminating the surrounding area.

"So dazzling."

Zhiqiong used her hands to cover the light in front of her eyes, but the light that slipped in between her fingers still dazzled her eyes.

With her eyes closed, she only felt a hot and blazing force emerging in front of her.

When she opened her eyes again, the slimes that were crawling on the ground had long disappeared, and were replaced by deep pits sinking into the ground, as well as Ye Lan's solemn face.

Did this kid hold back his hand when he fought with her?

He was truly a monster, and he was indeed that woman's brother.

"almost..."

Bai Qiyun, who had dealt with the slime, turned around and was about to say something but was interrupted by the water flowing behind him.

I saw a few more slimes jumping out of it.

"So you are very annoyed, so why can't you all come out at once?"

Perhaps the boy's words came true. What jumped out of the pool this time was not just a few slimes, but an army of slimes.

Those who watched it felt numb.

Just from a glance, I'm afraid it must be at least five to six hundred in size. In addition to slimes, there are also some water monsters that Bai Qiyun has never seen mixed in among them.

And judging from their movements, it seems that they are not attacking everyone, but running away.

"What happened."

Even though Zhiqiong has always been very courageous, she is not stupid. Something is obviously going on under the water.

She quickly hid behind Ye Lan and Bai Qiyun, as if this would make her feel more at ease.

Waves of water rolled up on the surface of the water. Under the rushing of the monster army, the water flow that originally looked eerie now looked even more turbid.

In Bai Qiyun's perception, the water surface was slowly rising, which was indeed extraordinary.

He stood in front of everyone with a serious face, and the pure water weapon on his body was activated to the extreme, causing the fleeing monsters to avoid this evil god and slip aside.

Occasionally, a few slimes without eyes bumped into him, and Bai Qiyun just threw them away without choosing to destroy them directly.

He could feel the water boiling.

There was something stirring back and forth under the pool of water.

"coming!"

A shadow suddenly rushed out from the water, setting off a huge wave, which was so powerful that it could even submerge the entire cave beneath everyone's feet.

However, the monster only appeared for a moment, and even with Bai Qiyun's eyesight, he couldn't tell its type.

The next second, huge waves rolled over everyone's heads and struck them heavily.

It seemed that the monster did not want to leave the pool. Even if it was somewhat reluctant, the few people had no choice but to evacuate the place first if they did not want to confront it head-on.

Bai Qiyun opened the water cover to protect several people inside. Even if the cave outside had been flooded, he could not do any harm to the people inside.

The group of people were just like this in the rushing river, wrapped in water bubbles, and moving along the waves.

You can also see a lot of monsters that have harmed pond fish on the road. Monsters like water slimes that can survive in the water are okay, but there are also some Qiuqiu people who are submerged in the water before they can escape.

But looking at their slow movements, drowning in water doesn't seem so incomprehensible.

After a while, the water flow gradually slowed down.

Taking advantage of the fact that the river beneath him was no longer rushing, Bai Qiyun quickly led everyone back to the shore.

Everyone's safety was naturally not in danger, but after being messed with like this, Bai Qiyun didn't know where they were now.

In this pitch-black underground with no signposts, a few people could only continue to explore like headless flies.

Fortunately, there was an elevator not far ahead, and several people used it to reach the upper level.

Although he still couldn't determine his position, at least he was out of the risk of drowning.

Looking at the stream flowing into the distance below, several members of the exploration team felt very depressed.

In this case, dangers everywhere may kill them. If Bai Qiyun hadn't taken action this time, they, who don't have the eyes of God, would be like those Qiuqiu people, and they wouldn't even have time to escape.

Run away.

"let's go."

Although there were many dangers, Bai Qiyun knew that they should not stay where they were. Only by eliminating the dangers under the rocky abyss could they end their journey.

Along the upper road, several people walked forward.

But there is no choice for them, because there is only one way to the upper level.

Fortunately, as they walked, they came across a temporary camp set up by the miners. There was no "sludge" nearby, so they could take a short rest.

While several people were resting, Bai Qiyun surveyed the surrounding environment.

His eyes swept over the stone wall nearby, and several brown stone balls attracted his attention.

"That is..."

Bai Qiyun cautiously approached, intending to test it with elemental power.

But before he could take action, those 'stone balls' exploded one by one, causing quite an explosion.

The stone wall behind them also shattered directly, exposing the space behind them.

Bai Qiyun looked inside and found that it was a passage leading to the lower level, and it seemed that there were no traces of man-made changes.

Stretching all the way from the height to the depth, there is no artificial auxiliary landing measure at all.

At a glance, it is bottomless.

I don't know where this place leads to, so if I go down hastily, I'm sure to be in serious trouble.

Fortunately, Bai Qiyun was prepared for this situation.
