Immortality begins with upgrading buildings

Chapter 62 The Yin Ghost Formation Shows Its Power!

"What the hell is that?!"

As soon as Liu Er finished speaking, he was struck by a tremendous force and was sent flying.

Liu Da summoned a shield to protect himself, and with the enhancement of the light blue magic, he barely managed to block the stone crab's attack.

He was then able to see the situation clearly.

"Damn it, how can there be such a thing!"

Liu roared angrily, his shield remaining still, but his body retreating straight backward.

"Second brother, second brother?"

After retreating for quite a while without seeing his brother, Liu Da started to panic.

"Brother, I'm here, I'm here."

Liu Er responded, but no one appeared.

Liu Da summoned a water-splitting dagger, which floated around him. At the same time, he also attached a night vision talisman to his body, but it was still pitch black in front of him, and he couldn't see anything.

"Wait... Liu Changsheng?!"

"Liu Changsheng, where the hell are you?!"

Liu Da realized something was wrong and hurriedly shouted.

Ji Yuan remained silent, simply manipulating the Yin Ghost Formation to cause the stone crab and Liu Er to collide.

Accompanied by a muffled groan.

Liu Er also used his shield to block the stone crab's pincers, but he seemed to be struggling against this monster that was almost at the late stage of the first tier.

With a thought, Ji Yuan released the two Yin Ghosts at the fifth level of Qi Refining from the Yin Ghost Flag.

The two ghost heads moved with ease in the black mist, and pounced on Liu Er as soon as they appeared.

However, their target was not Liu Er himself, but the magical shield in his hand.

Just like the white water flying sword that bit Ji Yuan back then, the two of them pounced on it now, along with the stone-armored crab fighting over it.

They snatched the mid-grade magic artifact from Liu's hands with almost no resistance.

Liu Er panicked, but he was a ruthless character honed by life and death. He pushed off with his feet and made hand seals, instantly stirring the lake water in front of him into a whirlpool, which directly pulled the stone crab's figure.

Just when he thought he was about to escape, he leaped backward and crashed straight into the cave wall.

The recoil from the boulder made him groan, followed by a sweet taste in his throat.

No, I clearly saw that there was an exit behind me... Just as he was wondering, he suddenly realized that the lake water was flowing into his nasal cavity.

"Where's my water-repelling talisman?!"

Liu Er took out a water-repelling talisman from his storage bag, but before he could stick it on, he saw a red light in the darkness.

Like a fleeting illusion.

He took out another high-grade protective talisman, but before he could use it, the red light had already entered his brow.

Along with it, a huge amount of lake water rushed into his lungs.

On his deathbed, he seemed to finally understand something. He was about to call out the name "Liu Changsheng" when lake water rushed in as soon as he opened his mouth, and he could only let out a muffled groan.

Then there was no more sound.

Then the stone crab rushed in front of him, its huge pincers extended, and with a snap, it cut him in two at the waist.

It's too late to say.

The entire exchange between Liu Er and the Stone-Armored Crab, along with Ji Yuan's successful sneak attack, took only a breath.

Liu Da, who was still running around in the passageway, completely unaware that he had fallen into the magic array, finally understood what was going on when he heard Liu Er's dying groan.

He summoned his shield again, stood still, and shouted, seemingly taken aback:

"The second child?"

There was no further response.

He fell silent as well.

"Liu Changsheng, is that you?"

If he still didn't know that someone was scheming behind this, then he would have lived in vain. What he couldn't understand was how Liu Changsheng, who was only at the sixth level of Qi Refining, managed to maneuver between the Stone Crab and his two brothers without revealing himself at all.

Liu Changsheng did not answer him.

The only response he received was from the stone crab that had brought Liu Er's upper body with it.

Upon seeing his second brother's corpse, Liu Da, who had initially remained relatively calm, immediately disregarded everything else.

He reached into his storage bag and took out a high-grade offensive talisman, then crushed it in his hand.

In an instant, a longsword formed from purple lightning appeared before him. He roared, "Go!"

As the Purple Lightning Sword sliced ​​through the waters, it also severed Ji Yuan's Yin Ghost Array.

Thunder magic is inherently masculine; while a high-grade talisman cannot destroy this Yin Ghost Array, it can still break through it slightly.

Unfortunately, the cave was already dark, so even though some of the formations had been broken, Liu Da was completely unaware.

As the purple lightning sword flashed out, the stone-armored crab sensed the danger.

It raised its pincers, along with Liu Er's corpse.

"laugh--"

The longsword pierced Liu Er's chest, severing one of the stone crab's pincers in the process. Just as it reached Liu Er, the stone crab flipped over, using its hard carapace to block the sword.

Even so, its carapace was still cleaved open by the lightning sword.

"roar--"

The rock crab, in pain, opened its mouth and let out a roar, lunging forward.

They were already extremely close, and Liu Da was blinded by rage, so he couldn't dodge in time. He could only use his protective shield to block the stone crab's bites and its huge pincers.

Taking advantage of a lull, he even opened his mouth and spat out a spell, striking the stone crab's relatively vulnerable abdomen.

The rock crab was in pain again.

Just when Liu Da thought there would be an opening for him to escape temporarily, he never expected that this attack would unleash the ferocity of the stone crab.

The latter raised the pliers and slammed them down.

"boom--"

With just this one blow, Liu Da, who was pressed against the stone, was struck so hard that he coughed up blood.

"Let's go."

Liu Dayi vaguely felt a soft voice in his ear. He was about to speak when he found that lake water was also flowing into his nasal cavity.

A red light and a white ray followed.

This is... a magical artifact!

"Liu Changsheng, you..."

Liu shouted out, but that was all; he never heard a sound again.

"..."

Seeing that the stone crabs had begun to devour Liu Da's corpse, Ji Yuan, who was hiding in the shadows, breathed a sigh of relief.

"I didn't expect the Yin Ghost Formation to corrode the talismans so slowly, but it corroded Liu Er's water-repelling talisman a little faster, while Liu Da's was very slow. He must have changed his water-repelling talisman when he went down into this dead cave. Damn it, what a bastard!"

A thought flashed through Ji Yuan's mind as he looked at the badly injured stone crab... It's my turn.

He summoned the White Water Flying Sword again and pointed his finger forward.

The flying sword swept past and instantly pierced the wound on the stone crab's back.

The stone crab, which was happily eating the corpse, never expected that there was someone behind it. It felt a sharp pain in its body and instinctively raised its body. Its stone armor shook wildly, and the whole mine shook.

Ji Yuan seized the opportunity and threw out the deadly needle again.

The red light pierced through the water, going straight into the crevice in the abdomen of the stone crab.

Under the combined attack, the stone crab did not die immediately. Instead, it went berserk, frantically ramming its body in the dead hole, as if trying to throw the two magical artifacts out.

But the more it does this, the more effort Ji Yuan puts in.

If we don't kill this thing now, we'll never have another chance!

The two remained locked in a stalemate for about ten breaths before the stone crab gradually calmed down and stopped moving altogether.

Ji Yuan breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, but he was still worried. Only after he used his flying sword to remove the remaining pincers and eight legs of the stone crab did he step forward and collect its corpse.

A corpse that's almost at the late stage of Tier 1 is a good find.

It can sell for a lot of spirit stones!

However, the corpse was quite large, so Ji Yuan had no choice but to take out the storage bag of the former Ghost Island Master and divide it into two to store it properly.

He then put away Liu Da and Liu Er's storage bags. Just as he put away the magic array and was thinking of calling Qiu Qianhai in to continue mining,

The ground... shook!

The entire dead hole began to shake violently.

This is... the earth dragon has turned over!
