Doom Lord

Tan Chao came to his senses in an instant, and said: "This method is not bad. It seems that the denseness of the vines can allow us to pass through smoothly. Even if a small part of them is far away, at worst, we can dig the passage a little longer. It’s much faster than digging a tunnel out.”

Cheng Yang smiled and said, "I think so too."

Liu Xiyue said at this time: "Lord, this... I am afraid it will take a lot of time? Even if the river is only seven or eight hundred meters long, it will take no less than five or six hours. With such a long time, we say Maybe we can find another passage?"

Cheng Yang said: "We need to find another passage, but we can't give up here. When Tan Chao goes in to dig the road later, we can't help much. You and Xiaobai stay here and guard, and I will go the same way." Go back and continue exploring westward to see if you can find another passage."

Liu Xiyue said: "I can't do anything if I stay here, why don't I accompany you, Lord, to find a new passage?"

Cheng Yang smiled and said: "That's not necessary. At my speed, I can scout within a range of more than 50 kilometers in an hour or two at most. If it exceeds this range, even if there is a passage in front, let's come There will be more time to go, so it doesn’t make much sense.”

After Liu Xiyue thought about it, she agreed with Cheng Yang's statement.

At that moment, Tan Chao came to the side of the cliff with the quarrying tools alone, and directly picked up the hammer and chiseled towards the mountain wall.

This opening is not the same as quarrying. Quarrying requires cutting stones into regular sizes and shapes, while opening a road only requires digging a passage on the stone wall. The latter is naturally much easier than the former. The speed is naturally much faster.

I saw Tan Chao's hammering down, stone chips flying, and huge rocks rolled down into the river.

Less than a minute after the first rock rolled into the river, Tan Chao saw huge black shadows swimming back and forth under the water. Shadow cast a cold gaze above his head.

Looking at these black shadows, Tan Chao felt a creepy feeling. He might have thought that Cheng Yang was exaggerating before, but now he saw these huge figures. He felt that Cheng Yang's statement was not accurate enough. Although he is still unable to determine the strength of these underwater guys, judging from their size, none of these guys is worse than Xiaobai.

Fortunately, these guys were hiding under the water and dared not come out. After Tan Chao stopped for a while. Then continue to dig forward.

After looking around for a while, Cheng Yang saw that Tan Chao was not in any danger, so he turned and left.

Cheng Yang ran all the way down the mountain wall without encountering any demonized beasts along the way. Although his speed was not as fast as on the official road, it was no problem to reach halfway.

In an hour and a half, he estimated that he had walked fifty or sixty kilometers, but the mountain walls along the way stood proudly, and there was no gap for him to pass through.

Although what he said to Liu Xiyue and the others just now only explored more than 50 kilometers forward. But when he got here, he was a little unwilling. A passage was dug out of the river, perhaps able to accommodate a few people to pass through. But if it is an army of tens of thousands of people, it is impossible to go from there. Even if the strength of the army members improves in the future. Its passage speed is also extremely slow.

Therefore, if Cheng Yang wanted to extend his sphere of influence to the Wucheng area, he had better be able to find a way out.

Of course, if he could find a territorial altar in the Wucheng area and occupy it, he would build an official road after gathering enough stone. It is also a solution. After all, the construction of official roads is automatically carried out under the constraints of the rules of heaven and earth, and the rules will automatically analyze the shortest distance that can be passed between the two stations. So there is no need to think too much about the passable roads.

In fact, so far, Cheng Yang has not figured out the rules of official roads. Only two of the official roads he built before crossed the main city. When these two official roads pass through the isolation area between the city-level main cities, the official road from Xiangcheng to Suicheng passes directly through the passage between the two mountains, while the official road from Suicheng to Xiaocheng Instead, he chose a relatively gentle hillside and crossed over.

Cheng Yang didn't know whether the hillside chosen by the official road in Xiaocheng City was a passage defined by the rules, because without this official road, it would be quite difficult to pass through this place. But Cheng Yang also saw a clue from it, that is, the positions of these two official roads through the separation zone are close to the route he explored at the beginning. Of course, this may be a coincidence, but it cannot be ruled out that it is a implicit law.

Therefore, it is very necessary for Cheng Yang to find another way to go together in advance.

However, the facts were contrary to what Cheng Yang thought. He continued to run westward for another twenty kilometers, but he still found nothing.

Is this cliff too long? Could it be that the gods really intend to trap the provincial main city in their area? In other words, the gods felt that after the provincial main city opened a channel to the outside world, it would be a huge threat to the outside world, so they increased the difficulty?

No matter what the situation is, Cheng Yang is powerless to change it now. At this moment, he was nearly 80 kilometers away from that big river, so he didn't want to continue exploring. Perhaps, in the north of Wucheng City, there is really no passage, or it may be that this passage is on the opposite side of the river, but this is not something that Cheng Yang can set foot in now.

Cheng Yang returned faster. It took him just over an hour to reach the big river, where Liu Xiyue was waiting anxiously.

"Lord, why are you coming back now? Didn't you just say you were only going for an hour or two?" Liu Xiyue said with a complicated expression when she saw Cheng Yang.

Cheng Yang could feel the concern in Liu Xiyue's words, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I just walked a little longer. But I'm a little disappointed, I still haven't found a wider passage. It seems that we can only go from here I made up my mind on the mountain wall."

Liu Xiyue said: "Lord, there is no problem passing here. Before you came back, Brother Tan had already come back once. He said that this river is not very long. He has already seen the exit, and it is estimated that it will be opened in an hour. gone."

Cheng Yang said happily: "So fast? That's a good thing."

After speaking, Cheng Yang looked at the time, it was already after 12 o'clock in the evening, and said immediately: "Let's take advantage of the time to practice, this daily homework must not be missed."

Liu Xiyue nodded, she also wanted to raise her professional level as soon as possible.

There have never been any demonized beasts here, so it is considered a relatively safe environment. Even if a demonized beast sneaks in while they are cultivating, they will be able to discover it immediately. After all, there is no such thing as obsessive cultivation in this world, and it can be started or interrupted at any time.

Just over an hour after Cheng Yang practiced meditation, a figure climbed up from the cliff on the right side of the river. This person was Tan Chao who had gone to open the way before. Seeing his happy face, he probably had successfully reached the opposite side.

But when Tan Chao saw Cheng Yang and Cheng Yang who were sitting on the ground practicing, his mouth that had just opened closed again. He knew that Cheng Yang had to practice every night, and he also knew the importance of practice. He believed that Cheng Yang must know that he was back by now, since the other party didn't stand up to greet him, he wanted to continue practicing.

At that moment, Tan Chao sat on the ground and started to practice as well.

Before dawn, Cheng Yang opened his eyes and looked at his increased cultivation progress, which was much less than using the Nirvana Divine Stone in Luofeng Town.

Suddenly, a look of shock appeared in Cheng Yang's eyes. He discovered a strange thing. It was nothing else, but the progress of his cultivation was higher than expected.

Cheng Yang had already calculated before that if he used the Nirvana Divine Stone plus the courtyard effect to practice in the territory, it would be equivalent to 12.4 times the cultivation speed per hour, but now there is no courtyard here, but the cultivation effect still exceeds 12 times, which is definitely not normal.

Cheng Yang made a rough estimate, and the extra effect was at least 0.3 times the base number. If it is not very concerned about the speed of cultivation, I am afraid that no one will notice this problem. After all, compared to Cheng Yang's current cultivation speed of more than ten times, the extra effect is really insignificant.

But how to explain this phenomenon? Cheng Yang couldn't find the answer for a while, because he really couldn't think of any difference between the practice last night and the previous ones. If there is any difference, it can only explain that the cultivation last night was carried out in the wild, and it has always been in the resident before.

But this is not a reason to increase the speed of practice, because many people practiced in the wild in the previous life, but they did not get any effect of the speed of practice.

After a lot of brainstorming, Cheng Yang didn't come up with a reason, so he had no choice but to keep this question in his heart for the time being, and maybe he could get the answer in the future.

Soon, Liu Xiyue woke up, and Cheng Yang asked: "Xiyue, take a closer look, did you improve your cultivation last night more than normal?"

Liu Xiyue immediately opened her attribute panel, and found that the cultivation progress was indeed a little bit more than expected.

"What's going on?" Liu Xiyue asked in surprise.

Cheng Yang spread his hands and said, "I haven't figured out what's going on for the time being."

Liu Xiyue was stunned: "Why don't you know?"

In her opinion, Cheng Yang is almost omniscient and omnipotent. This image has already been deeply ingrained in her heart, but she never thought that there would be something that Cheng Yang didn't know about. No wonder she was so surprised.

Cheng Yang smiled helplessly, and said: "I'm not a god who transforms the world, so naturally it's impossible to know everything. It seems that this matter is unclear for the time being. Let's pay attention to it later, and when we figure it out, say Maybe our territory has unexpected benefits." (To be continued)
