[Chapter 1396 The Magic of the Underground World]
From Shu Bai’s words, Yang Yiyu determined that the Rat King must know something about him, but he was not sure how much he knew.
Yang Yiyu had his own plans and goals, and he couldn’t die at this point.
So he had to take a risk.
The reason why he decided to take the risk was not only because he felt that the Rat King knew about his human identity.
The point is that since the Rat King sent Shu Bai and Shu Jin, two little demons, to invite him, it means that the Rat King did not want to tear his face, otherwise, he only needed to tell the four major forces of the Ten Thousand Demons Mountain Range that he was a human.
Instead, he came to invite him to the Five Elements Rat Demon Clan to see a doctor, which means that there is still room for negotiation.
At least for the time being, the Rat King will not announce his identity.
Or it is not too clear that the Rat King knows that he is a human, but it seems that he has grasped some clues.
For Yang Yiyu, even if it is a little bit, he dare not gamble, so he can only agree to Shu Bai and Shu Jin to go to the Five Elements Rat Demon Clan to treat their ancestor or the Rat King.
If he didn’t go, it was not impossible. He could just kill Shu Bai and Shu Jin, and then run away with Lu Yanzhi and Qing Niu, leaving Wan Yao City and Wan Yao Mountains along the same route.
But… leaving… where can they go?
After leaving Wan Yao Mountains, they are still in Taihuang, and Yang Yiyu dares to say that outside Wan Yao Mountains, there must be people from the several holy places he had offended waiting for him, and they are masters waiting for him to appear.
So, even if he goes out now, he still has no way out.
Not to mention that he didn’t do what he promised Qing Niu, how could he be willing to leave Wan Yao Mountains like this? Instead
of doing this, it is better to compromise temporarily and take a gamble.
Follow Shu Bai and Shu Jin to the Five Elements Rat Demon Clan and meet the Rat King. If he wins the bet, he will have a powerful intelligence system. If he loses the bet… the worst case scenario is to run away again. Anyway, if he wants to run away, he is confident that no one can stop him.
Because he has the old man as a backing and the Qiankun Pot on him.
…
Outside the City of Ten Thousand Monsters, Yang Yiyun did not bring anyone with him. He followed the brothers and sisters Shu Bai and Shu Jin to the Five Elements Rat Monster Clan alone.
He was going to an unknown underground world, so he did not bring anyone with him. He asked the others to stay in the Demon Clinic. Of course, he also told Qingniu and Pangolin that if he did not come back in half a year, they should find a way to evacuate the City of Ten Thousand Monsters and go out of Taihuang.
After leaving the City of Ten Thousand Monsters, Yang Yiyun thought he would have to travel a long way directly on land, but he did not expect Shu Bai to smile and say, “Doctor, please follow us.”
In Yang Yiyun’s confusion, Shu Bai and Shu Jin walked to a secluded place. One of them burst into white light and the other burst into golden light. Then he heard Shu Bai whispered, “Open the way…”
As Shu Bai’s voice fell, Yang Yiyun felt the ground under his feet shaking slightly.
The next moment, a three-meter crack appeared in the ground three meters in front of him, gradually becoming wider and wider. In an instant, the width of the crack reached more than one meter.
A big hole appeared in the ground.
Yang Yiyun looked inside and saw a hole about 1.23 meters wide, extending downwards…
Seeing the underground passage, Yang Yiyun finally understood what the underground world of the Five Elements Rat Clan was. From this point of view, every member of the Five Elements Rat Demon Clan was a master of digging holes.
If it was a large group of Five Elements Rat Demon Clan, creating an underground world would not be a difficult task.
At this time, only Shu Bai said, “This is just one of the innate attributes of my Five Elements Rat Clan, which is the best in the world. It’s nothing. Doctor, please, enter from here. There is a teleportation array that can directly reach the core of my clan. It won’t take much time.”
This time, it was Shu Jin who spoke, revealing confidence and pride in his words.
Yang Yiyun was speechless. He was a rat demon, and digging a hole was just like drinking cold water.
However, from this point, it can be seen that according to the Five Elements Rat Demon’s talent for digging holes, it is not impossible to open up the entire underground world.
Yang Yiyun felt more and more that if he could subdue the Five Elements Rat Demon Clan, or the Rat King, his future plans in the Ten Thousand Demons Mountain Range would be twice as effective with half the effort.
Then Yang Yiyun followed the brothers and sisters, Rat Bai and Rat Jin, into the cave they had opened up.
After entering, he only heard Rat Bai say “close”, and the next moment the cave was reunited. Although he was not on the ground at the moment, he could fully imagine that there would be no traces left on the ground.
If the Five Elements Rat Demon wanted to escape, they would dig a hole and drill into it, and then they would not even have any breath left. This race is simply a natural intelligence expert.
Yang Yiyun thought that if he did not use this clan for his own use, it would be a waste of heaven’s gift.
…
After entering the passage, it extended downward at a 30-degree angle.
Originally, Yang Yiyun imagined that the rat cave was very damp, dark and narrow, but in fact it was the opposite.
Except for the first ten meters, which was a mud passage opened up by Rat Bai and Rat Jin, the rest was simply a road that led in all directions. It
was obvious at a glance that it was a passage that had been built a long time ago.
The entire passage is about nine meters high and nine meters wide, gradually sloping down. The steepest places are all made of glowing stones. At the top of the passage are fist-sized night-shining pearls that serve as lighting, and there is one every three meters. After
walking for a while, there is a forked passage that continues all the way. It is truly an underground network that extends in all directions. The dense night-shining pearls alone are enough to show the wealth of the Five Elements Rat Demon Clan.
Yang Yiyu couldn’t imagine how such a huge project was completed. If it were placed in the secular world, it would be a miracle.
What’s more interesting is that there is a water source in the passage, and there is a light breeze blowing.
Shu Bai acted as a tour guide for Yang Yiyu and said, “Some of the water sources are groundwater, and some are drained from large rivers and lakes on the ground. Each passage has ventilation holes every hundred meters, extending among the towering ancient trees on the ground. Some ventilation holes are opened high on the cliffs. They are all very secretive.
Whether it is the source of the water source or the source of the ventilation hole, there are powerful and secret formations and barriers, so it is very secretive and safe.
The night pearls were collected from somewhere in Taihuang. The flame stone under our feet is a unique stone in the underground volcano. It is extremely hard and can be forged. Magical instruments, using flame stone without ground can play a role in keeping away the cold, and can also create an environment suitable for the growth of vegetation.
Although my clan lives in the underground world, we have everything on the ground, and we have more than what is not on the ground. Here are just some peripheral passages, so the conditions are not very good. When we reach the teleportation array in front, we will enter the royal city of our clan. When we get to the royal city, the doctor will take a look. There are many better passages than here…”
Yang Yiyu was really shocked when he heard Shu Bai’s proud explanation. He was really looking forward to the Rat King City mentioned by Shu Bai.
I want to see as soon as possible what kind of underground world the Five Elements Rat Demon Clan has created.
In fact, it is not far, but Yang Yiyu calculated that it still took half a day to reach the teleportation array mentioned by Shu Bai.
After walking for half a day, the passage was still tilted downward. It was roughly estimated that they might have gone deep into the ground for three to five thousand meters.
At this moment, they arrived at a huge space of nearly 300 square meters. The whole space became a circle, and there were entrances to the passages all around. Yang Yiyun thought that this should be a junction, and perhaps hundreds or thousands of miles of radius would gather here and teleport again.
The whole space was made of flame stone, and in the center was a teleportation array, which looked very ancient. Shu Bai and Shu Jin took Yang Yiyun to the teleportation array and said, “Doctor, through the teleportation array, we will reach the royal city of our clan.”
Yang Yiyun nodded to indicate that he knew, and signaled them to start the formation.
The next moment, the power of space burst out from under his feet, followed by a bright khaki halo, and Yang Yiyun subconsciously closed his eyes.
He only felt dizzy…
After about a few minutes, Shu Bai’s voice rang in his ears, saying, “Doctor, we have arrived at the Rat King City.”
Yang Yiyun opened his eyes when he heard this, and his heart was immediately shocked.
At this moment, he found that he was standing on an altar, which was a teleportation formation altar, and the entire altar was actually an extremely thick and independent flame stone pillar.
The sound of gurgling lava came into Yang Yiyun’s ears. He looked at the huge stone pillars
, which seemed to be surrounded by an abyss on three sides. The lava was right below, at least several thousand meters deep. The flame stone pillars they stood on were very high. Hundreds of meters above their heads were huge cave rocks, with strange stalactites hanging upside down.
And thousands of meters away in sight was a towering city.
He knew it was the Rat King City without asking. The city buildings that stretched as far as the eye could see appeared in a huge natural cave.
