The Thunder God Novel - Chapter 577
Chapter 577 Flooding (1)
The two large mines were covered by buildings on the ground. However, after the battle, the buildings were severely damaged, but it did not prevent them from arriving at the entrance of the mine.
He didn’t know what kind of mine it was for the time being, but Lei Xingfeng discovered a clue. There were some crumbs of ore left on the ground, and the extremely strong dots of light emitted from them. He knew in his heart that these two mines were very extraordinary.
Da Lieba stood at the entrance of the mine and asked, “What should we do?” His heart was a mess, and he didn’t know where to start.
Wu Yang pondered for a moment, then said, “We are too small. Even if we are in the camp step by step, it will be very difficult to clean up. Furthermore, we do not know anything about the tunnels below.”
Patriarch Daojun gathered together to discuss. The others were arranging camp. Although more than half of the buildings here had been destroyed, many of them were still intact. There were still some outsiders left in the buildings on the ground. However, once these outsiders were discovered, they were immediately killed. They no longer had the strength to resist. The entire basin was filled with cultivators.
A Patriarch Daojun volunteered, “Let me go down and see who’s coming with me.”
‘”I’ll go!” Darie said domineeringly.
Lei Xingfeng said, “Go a few more. I’ll go too.” Let’s first take a look at the situation. He believed that there shouldn’t be many outsiders left in the upper mining area.
Wu Yang said, “Let’s go together. Ning Er’aba will stay behind. You go to the camp in charge of the team.”
There were about thirty people in Patriarch Daojun, some of whom were later mended. They came from all sorts of places. After entering from all continents, a group of people walked towards the mine and quickly went deeper into it.
The entrance to the mine was not big. It was a downward-sloping entrance. There was a large amount of wood blocking the entrance to prevent the mine from collapsing. Interestingly, the tunnel was not wet and was rather dry. There was even a gentle breeze blowing up from below. The smell was not bad either. The cool breeze was very comfortable on the face.
A moment later, he arrived at a very large and spacious intersection. There were at least six entrances. Lei Xingfeng smiled bitterly and said, “Sure enough, this is complicated.”
“If we split up according to this kind of fork in the road, we won’t be able to get enough people soon,” Dalei said tyrannically.
Wu Yang looked at Lei Xingfeng and said, “Feng, what can you do?”
Lei Xingfeng said, “Stand up a Mystery Sect first. Split up and go out. Everyone split up to explore. If there aren’t enough people, come back from Mystery Sect. Let’s take a look at the situation first. It’s best to find the next level of tunnels. This way, we’ll jam into the tunnels on the lower level and thoroughly inspect the holes on the upper level.”
Everyone thought about it and nodded in agreement. Temporary Mystery Sect was easy to build. There were quite a few Daojun, and they had their own Mystery Sect.
A Mystery Sect stood up and sent two Patriarchs of Daojun to guard it. The others walked into the tunnel separately.
Lei Xingfeng and Wu Yang walked along the same tunnel. Lei Xingfeng shot out a ball of lightning that hung a few meters in front of him, illuminating the surroundings brightly.
The tunnels were rather chaotic. Occasionally, there would be forks. Every time there were forks, they would be recorded and someone would be allowed to enter to investigate.
As long as there was only one person left, he would turn around through Mystery Sect. This time, it was just a simple exploration.
In just a few moments, This group was completely dispersed. Lei Xingfeng and Wu Yang walked into a relatively spacious tunnel. Under the illumination of the lightning, this tunnel was extremely deep. Moreover, this tunnel was slanted downwards. The two of them did not walk very fast. They always paid attention to the movements ahead. There were outsiders here. If they were ambushed, they would not be able to draw it.
As he spoke, a black shadow suddenly rushed out. Lei Xingfeng had been controlling the lightning in front of him, so when he rushed out, he was struck by the lightning. In an instant, the lightning landed on the black shadow.
Wu Yang suddenly took a step forward, and his virtual hand suddenly flew out. In front of Lei Xingfeng, it forcefully grabbed onto a tail.
Lei Xingfeng couldn’t help but break out in cold sweat. His tail was aimed at his eyes.
When the lightning landed on the outsider, the outsider began to tremble violently. The power of the lightning was abnormal, causing the outsider to instantly taste what stiffness meant and what numbness meant.
Wu Yang grabbed his tail and squeezed it hard with his virtual hand. With a cracking sound, his tail was broken.
Apart from being shocked, Lei Xingfeng immediately struck out a thick bolt of lightning. It rattled repeatedly and the outsider was exposed under the burning lightning.
This was a Heavenly Monarch level outsider. Wu Yang and Lei Xingfeng worked together to instantly kill him.
Another outsider ran out and Lei Xingfeng slapped him. However, he never thought that his opponent would be a Patriarch Daojun. Not only was this slap caught by someone, it was also smashed into pieces by his opponent’s tail. Fortunately, Wu Yang was by his side. He grabbed it and threw it behind him, causing Lei Xingfeng to break out in cold sweat again.
The outsider and Wu Yang were in a group, and Lei Xingfeng stared at them from the side, unable to interfere at all.
Wu Yang suddenly said, “Retreat!”
Lei Xingfeng turned around and ran. Not long after, he heard a muffled sound. Wu Yang chased after him and said, “Let’s go, let’s go! The tunnel is about to collapse!”
He didn’t know what Wu Yang had done. The entire tunnel began to tremble violently. Wu Yang grabbed hold of Lei Xingfeng and suddenly rushed into Mystery Sect. He instantly returned to the starting point. Lei Xingfeng turned around in his busy schedule and saw the tunnel collapse completely.
Quite a number of Patriarch Daojun appeared to be in a sorry state, and a few of them suffered minor injuries. They were all caused by sneak attacks from hiding outsiders.
Wu Yang and Da Lei Ba’s expressions were not very good. They finally realized that this mission was not an easy one. This was not a large-scale frontal battle, but a battle in a narrow and dark tunnel. It was much more dangerous than street battles in the city.
“There are quite a few outsiders hiding inside, and they are of high rank and strength. If we send our men down, there will be a lot of casualties,” Qi Lingzhang said.
A Patriarch Daojun said, “Yes, they are all ambushing us, waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack. We really can’t defend against them. What should we do?”
Wu Yang had a headache and said, “The tunnel is very fragile. As long as you exert a little strength, the entire tunnel will collapse. It’s very troublesome.” He shook his head repeatedly. He remembered the battle just now and almost buried himself in it. Although no one would die, this was too awkward.
Lei Xingfeng said, “The duration of this mission is rather broad, but I have an idea. I wonder if everyone is interested.”
Someone asked, “What do you think?”
Lei Xingfeng said, “The upper layers of the large ore veins have been dug up. We need to reach the ore surface or mining surface to know what kind of ore this is. It seems that this mine is not simple, otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many experts left in it.”
Someone interrupted Lei Xingfeng and said, “We know that, but what are you thinking … well, you say, you say!” Everyone glared at each other angrily, causing that person to immediately shrink back.
“We tried to get people down to the excavation,” Lei Xingfeng said. “Then we built the Mystery Sect passageway and we went straight to the mine.”
“But,” said Patriarch Daojun, “there are outsiders inside!”
Lei Xingfeng chuckled and said, “As long as our Mystery Sect structure succeeds, we will destroy the tunnels in the upper and middle levels. Since outsiders like to stay inside, then let him stay.” This move is extremely ruthless. If it is implemented, none of the outsiders inside will be able to survive. This is no different from burying them alive. Of course, if you have the ability, you might be able to dig a path to escape.
Wu Yang said, “But this mission is to eliminate all the outsiders in the mine. Are we done like this?”
Lei Xingfeng said, “Perhaps you can dig a tunnel yourself and collapse the original tunnel.”
Everyone was discussing.
After a while, Lei Xingfeng asked, “Are there any water type cultivators here?”
Someone raised his hand and said, “I am a water element cultivator.” A Patriarch Daojun was usually very quiet and seldom spoke. A water element cultivator was far inferior to Ice series. If it came to attacks, the water element did not have much power. Even if this person advanced to Patriarch Daojun, his status among this group of people was still low, so he remained silent.
Lei Xingfeng said, “Do you know how to control the flow of water?”
A trace of anger flashed across the man’s face, but he quickly controlled it. He said, “I am a water element, of course I can control water!”
“Very good, very good! Very good!” Said Lei Xingfeng happily.
“What do you mean?” Even the weaker water element Patriarch Daojun was still Patriarch Daojun. It was not to be looked down upon. His tone contained a trace of anger.
Lei Xingfeng smiled and said, “What if we pour water into the tunnel?”
Everyone immediately stopped discussing. They all stared at Lei Xingfeng in shock. This method was even more terrifying. Even if outsiders were not afraid of water, filling the tunnel was different. That would cause the entire tunnel to collapse. Once you were buried hundreds of meters underground, no matter how powerful you were, it would be useless.
The man’s face immediately revealed a relieved expression. He knew that he had misunderstood Lei Xingfeng. He said, “There is no water in this area. However, there is still a way to submerge the entire mine. I can divert water from outside. As long as you give me a group of people to help me open a river.”
Wu Yang said, “This is a good method. It can force the opponent to come out and destroy some traps. I agree!”
‘”I didn’t expect water to have such an effect. Hehe, very good, very good. I like the idea of flooding, and I agree with it!” Dalei said tyrannically.
The few people in the lead agreed, and the others didn’t have any objections. Patriarch Daojun, who controlled the water, immediately gathered his men and began to dig a river outside, winding towards the mining area.
