The next morning, it was still dark.
Leng Qing pulled Tang Yue out of Zhao Xin's room.
Looking at Zhao Xin sleeping soundly on the sofa in the living room, he quietly went to the bathroom to start cleaning for the day.
After a while, the sound of water hitting the ground woke up Zhao Xin who was in the living room.
Zhao Xin stood up and looked at the time on his cell phone and found that it was very close to the scheduled departure time yesterday.
Because they were investigating clues about the Black Church, and in order to keep the operation secret, they had to leave Bo City before dark.
After getting dressed, she knocked on the door of Qin Yuer's room.
After a few seconds, Qin Yu'er came out with some dark circles under her eyes.
It seems that this time the demon hunter Qin Yu'er is still very worried about Zhao Xin, and he couldn't sleep well after thinking about it for a long time.
Zhao Xin felt distressed. "Why are you still so worried about me? I'm already an intermediate mage. You can't be by my side all the time in the future. You have to have confidence in me in this dangerous world. Trust me, okay!?"
Qin Yu'er looked at Zhao Xin's expression and felt a little sweet in her heart.
"I know, I know, hurry up and wash up and get ready to go."
"Well, Sister Yu'er, please rest more on the road." Zhao Xin stepped out of the way and said with concern.
…
The light of dawn had just fallen, and Zhao Xin and his party of four had already left the Snow Mountain Station.
Walking in the forest at dawn, Zhao Xin immediately felt the cold and damp atmosphere.
In the distance, the howling of an unknown beast came from time to time, it was terrifying!
He looked at the lush green woods around him and the rugged road beneath his feet.
Zhao Xin opened his mouth to break the silence.
"It's almost there. You shouldn't be able to see it from here at the inn. Now look at mine."
Then the star tracks are skillfully connected.
"Dimension Summoning!!"
Xiao An poked his head out first and saw Zhao Xin's dozens of meters long body quickly flying out of the silver dimensional door.
Leng Qing was extremely surprised when he saw Zhao Xin's summoned beast for the first time. "It's amazing. You can have a dragon at such a young age. Your future is limitless."
Zhao Xin said embarrassedly. "It's all the help of Sister Yu'er and Tang Yue, otherwise I wouldn't be able to contract Xiao An."
He patted Xiao An's smooth and thick scales.
"You all come up together. With Xiao An's flying speed, it only takes a few hours to reach the destination."
With such a good mount, Qin Yuer and the others stopped being pretentious and jumped on one after another.
Xiao An didn't have the dignity of a dragon, so he agreed to sit on Qin Yu'er and the others without losing his temper.
Zhao Xin finally jumped on Xiao An's dragon body and hugged Qin Yu'er from behind.
"You didn't sleep well yesterday. You can sleep peacefully while I hold you. Xiao An can still fly quite steadily."
Qin Yu'er felt Xiao An's flight mode and fell asleep peacefully on Zhao Xin's bed.
Xiao An was flying at a low altitude of tens of meters, and the green scenery below was constantly changing.
…
A few hours later, the sun had fully risen.
Xiao An sent Zhao Xin and his party to the platform next to the Baicao Valley cave.
"Huh~" he said and went back to summon the plane to rest.
Zhao Xin led everyone to the pond.
"This is it."
After hearing this, Leng Qing walked over, took out the test paper and placed it on the surface of the pool water to create a layer of water splash.
The test paper changed from white to red, Leng Qing said solemnly. "It seems that the problem with this pool of water is not small. If the violent effect was not diluted by the water, the Xuefeng Mountain Station would have been attacked by demons in a frenzied manner."
Zhao Xin looked at the smart Leng Qing and guided him. "Perhaps it started a long time ago. The giant-eyed rats underground in Bo City have dug holes for so long. The demons can be artificially guided to attack the urban area of Bo City directly."
Tang Yue seemed to have thought of something and her expression changed drastically.
"Only the Black Church can complete such a large-scale plan! We must quickly find a way to stop it."
Leng Qing said calmly. "Let's go into the cave first and see where the water comes from."
He walked ahead and entered the cave with a flash of light.
Zhao Xin and the others looked at each other and followed in. Qin Yu'er volunteered to hold the line at the end.
We walked along the dark and narrow road for about ten minutes, following the stream that flowed into the pond at the entrance of the cave.
The cave suddenly became brighter. Under the bright light of cold blue, you could see that the entire cave was a jagged and strange rock, covered with stalactites hanging upside down.
It seems that this place was formed by the erosion of underground rivers over many years.
"Underground rivers are usually connected together. This place is not too far from Bo City. What Zhao Xin said makes sense." After observing the surrounding area, Leng Qing confirmed Zhao Xin's previous guess.
After walking along the creek for a while, there was a pile of collapsed rocks.
Zhao Xin climbed over to the collapsed boulder alone and touched the marks on the stone with his hand.
"These collapsed boulders were all recently destroyed by artificial explosions, and there are still saltpeter black ash left on them after the gunpowder explosion."
Leng Qing walked towards Zhao Xin and prepared magic. The seven constellations formed a star palace, and the huge star palace was reflected in the cave.
Zhao Xin and the others, who had just lost their sight because Leng Qing wanted to use his powerful move to cancel the brilliance, could see their surroundings clearly again.
After casting the spell for more than ten seconds.
"Dragon Veins of Rock·The Sinking of the Earth"
The loud noise of "Boom~~~" was heard endlessly.
Leng Qing quickly softened the surrounding collapsed rocks, and was kneaded and shaped by Leng Qing to flow to both sides.
After about a few minutes, Leng Qing finally opened up the collapsed passage.
"Let's go!" Leng Qing, who was overly exhausted, took the lead and panted.
It seems that continuing to use ultra-level magic still puts a lot of pressure on Leng Qing.
Tang Yue couldn't bear it and ran forward to help Leng Qing.
"You'd better rest in the middle of the team for a while. I'll take the lead, just in case something unexpected happens."
Upon seeing this, Zhao Xin also stepped forward to support Leng Qing so that Tang Yue could let go.
Leng Qing knew that he was in a bad state, so he did not reject Tang Yue's kindness and let Zhao Xin lead him through the middle of the team.
After everyone walked out of the series of collapsed passages, they came to a larger cave.
However, there are collapsed stalactites under the feet of this place. It is estimated that it used to be a low-lying area and was artificially destroyed into what it is now.
Without a stream to guide him, Qin Yuer walked around the empty cave. After finding nothing, he returned to Leng Qing, who was resting at the entrance of the cave, and shook his head.
Zhao Xin looked at Qin Yu'er who didn't find anything, and used his water magic power to try to sense the surrounding water.
After a while.
"Yes!!"
"What's there?" Tang Yue looked at Zhao Xin who suddenly shouted and asked in confusion.
"I sensed a large amount of water about ten meters below our feet. It should be the creek that was slowly blocked by the collapse of the channel."
Zhao Xin also lay down on the ground and listened to what was going on below.
Tang Yue observed for a while and found that there were some gaps in these piles of rocks.
"You guys wait for me for a while, I'll be right back."
The shadow system star track quickly connected, turning into a ball of shadow and drilling into the dark underground stone cracks...
