Global martial arts masters: an ordinary duo

In the heart of Juliu City, a tall giant tree stands here, as if it is the patron saint of the city. The sunlight shines through the layers of leaves and shines on the trunk, creating golden spots. The crystal clear tree trunk is like a huge crystal, shining with charming light.

Chen Fan stared at the giant tree with burning eyes, strong desire surging in his heart. For a moment, he really wanted to chop down the tree and take it back to Mowu. That crystal clear tree trunk is considered top-grade whether used as a weapon material or a training material. Its toughness is comparable to that of A-grade alloy, which makes people wonder about its possibility of being used as a magic weapon.

The golden sap flows in the sun, like winding golden snakes. These sap contains endless energy. If it can be used as the raw material for elixirs, it can surely refine countless rare elixirs. Chen Fan couldn't help but feel excited as he imagined the huge benefits that this giant tree could bring.

"If this tree is cut down, Mowu may be able to produce thousands of mid-level warriors, and even a group of master-level experts!" This thought swirled in Chen Fan's mind, making his heart beat faster.

However, practical problems also emerged. Even if the tree is cut down, it may not be possible to bring the whole tree back to Mowu. Its size is too huge, and I'm afraid it can't even be accommodated in the passage. In addition, even with magic weapons at hand, it is not easy to cut down this giant tree.

"If my space ring could be several thousand cubic meters in size, I might consider taking it back. But it would be difficult to cut down this giant tree without magic weapons." Chen Fan sighed secretly in his heart.

Chen Fan pondered for a while and began to observe the surrounding environment more carefully. He understood that finding a suitable inn to stay at was the wisest choice at the moment, and he could not continue to wander aimlessly like this.

On the busy street, he looked around for a suitable inn. The surrounding atmosphere gradually became lively, and various sounds and breaths intertwined to form a vivid picture.

Finally, Chen Fan's eyes fell on a place similar to an inn. It was located on the corner of the street. The simple wooden door exuded a calm atmosphere. He stood on the opposite side, observed for a while, and then walked over with some confidence in his heart.

After some inquiry and bargaining, Chen Fan obtained the right to live in a small courtyard with a beautiful environment at the price of 10 energy crystals. The courtyard is quiet and elegant, and the flowers, plants and trees in the courtyard give people a fresh feeling.

In the next two days, Chen Fan stayed in this small courtyard and did not go out to hang out. He used his mental power to show the energy fluctuations of a third-grade peak warrior to conceal his true strength. At the same time, he did not ignore the news that the fountain of life was about to be opened.

The owner of the inn was in awe of this powerful warrior and was very cooperative with Chen Fan's request. After Chen Fan said hoarsely, "No interruption," the boss hurriedly nodded in agreement and promised that no one would come to disturb him.

Under the leadership of an ordinary cave human, Chen Fan stepped into the small courtyard. The courtyard door slowly closed, cutting off the noise from the outside world. The small courtyard is quiet, with only the occasional chirping of insects and the sound of the breeze blowing through the leaves, creating an secluded atmosphere.

Chen Fan followed the humans in the cave directly into the room. Although the room is not big, it is clean and tidy. The window was half open, and the white curtains were fluttering gently in the breeze.

"We've almost gathered the information, it's time to get down to business." Chen Fan thought to himself. After this period of inquiring, he had a general understanding of the situation in the cave.

The number of people in the seventh, eighth and ninth grades and the number of people in the middle grade has been roughly estimated. These data swirled in his mind and became an important basis for his decision-making.

However, he was not satisfied with this. The collection of intelligence is an endless process, but the top priority is to establish a stronghold. This is the real purpose of his coming here. As for other details, he planned to leave it to learn more about it later.

The real business is, of course, about the fountain of life. This mysterious existence is the treasure in the cave and the goal of his trip. He needs more information and more accurate intelligence in order to formulate the best plan of action.

In addition, the locations of energy stone exchange shops also aroused his interest. He has already mastered the specific locations of seven or eight stores, and these stores will become important channels for him to obtain energy stones. He knew the importance of these stores, but too many stores didn't mean much, so he decided to stop there and stop looking.

……

A hundred miles away from Juliu City, on a barren land, four figures streaked across the sky like lightning, at an astonishing speed. The clouds in the sky were quickly moved by them, leaving behind blurry shadows.

Li Hansong followed his companion panting, his face pale and full of grief and anger. He shouted loudly: "I told you to recover from your injuries first and not to covet that fortune. But now, you are being chased by the enemy and have nowhere to escape!"

His voice floated in the wind, carrying endless helplessness and anger.

Dozens of strong men behind him were in hot pursuit, their eyes flashing with ferocious light, like a pack of hungry wolves chasing their prey. Their footsteps and shouts echoed across the desolate land, making people tremble.

In front of Li Hansong, Qin Fengqing, Fang Ping and Wang Jinyang were also running quickly with large packages on their backs.

Looking at the three people running in front of him, Li Hansong couldn't help shouting: "Throw away the package quickly, otherwise we won't be able to escape!" There was a hint of anxiety and concern in his voice.

However, Qin Fengqing snorted and replied firmly: "Not lost!" His eyes flashed with an unshakable determination.

Li Hansong frowned. He knew that the situation was already very critical. If he didn't throw away the package, his life would be in danger. He shouted: "You will die!"

Qin Fengqing, however, remained unwavering. He answered resolutely: "I won't give up even if I die!" His eyes revealed an almost crazy persistence.

Li Hansong shook his head helplessly, feeling extremely bitter in his heart. Did they really risk their lives for these belongings? He looked at Qin Fengqing running ahead with mixed feelings in his heart.

At this time, Wang Jinyang was still relatively sober. He gasped and suggested: "Take out the energy stone and let's suck it while running. As much as we can suck..." There was a kind of eagerness and anxiety in his voice.

Li Hansong couldn't help but remind him: "The energy stone is not pure enough and has too many impurities..."

Fang Ping, however, seemed to be very experienced. He said quickly: "It's okay, just inhale more and go back to clean up the mixed energy." There was a trace of decisiveness and confidence in his tone.

Upon hearing this, Qin Fengqing immediately took out the energy stone and began to absorb it frantically. He thought in his mind: So what if there are many impurities! Absorb more now and spend some time cleaning it up later. It will be faster than practicing on your own.

Fang Ping saw that the energy stone was about to be sucked out by Qin Fengqing. He quickly stepped forward, grabbed the energy stone, and quickly absorbed it. His face was full of anxiety and desire, as if he was fighting for the most important thing in life.

Without saying a word, Wang Jinyang quickly stepped forward and grabbed the other side of the energy stone, and began to absorb it frantically. His eyes were shining with blazing light, as if he wanted to absorb all the energy into his body. When Li Hansong saw this, he couldn't help shouting: "You are running so fast, leave a place for me! I can't keep up!" There was a hint of helplessness and embarrassment in his voice.

When Qin Fengqing heard Li Hansong's words, she turned to look at him with a hint of contempt in her eyes. But soon, he smiled again and stopped showing contempt. He thought to himself: It doesn't matter if he runs slowly, but if he runs fast, Li Tietou will be of little use.

Li Hansong finally caught up with them, quickly grabbed the energy stone and began to absorb it. While absorbing it, he gasped and said, "We'll lose the energy stone later. Let's find a place to hide for a few days until Chen Fan comes to us." There was a hint of exhaustion and worry in his voice.

He sighed in his heart and sighed to himself: Except for Chen Fan, everyone else is not very reliable. But in this desolate land, they can only rely on each other to face the crisis ahead together.

……

In the inn, under the dim light, Chen Fan carefully lay down under the bed, and gently lifted up the stone floor under the bed with his hands. His breathing became cautious, as if he was afraid of breaking the silent atmosphere.

Chen Fan closed his eyes slightly, seeped his mental power into the ground, and carefully explored the surrounding roots. There was a trace of surprise on his face, and his pupils shrank slightly, as if he had seen something horrifying.

"There are roots underground, I guessed it would be like this!" Chen Fan whispered to himself. His voice echoed in the quiet inn, appearing particularly clear.

Chen Fan concentrated his energy again and carefully scanned the roots underground. He found that those roots were full of energy and seemed to have some weak reactions. This made his heart beat faster and his body tense up.

"This inn is still several kilometers away from the inner city." Chen Fan thought silently in his heart, knowing that he was in an extremely dangerous environment. Even though the inner city is very large, the main root system of the Willow Tree Demon is not here, but its branch roots are spread all around, at least 10 miles away from him.

"You can't release your mental power, nor can you release your energy and blood." Chen Fan reminded himself that once the tree demon's reaction was aroused, he would definitely die. The sound of his heartbeat echoed in the silent inn, and every beat reminded him of the danger.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm down. He knew that in this situation, only by staying calm could he find a way to survive.

Chen Fan's eyes were firm, and he decided to go deep underground to explore the secrets of the energy mine. At this moment, he did not use a knife, but dug directly with his hands. His hands quickly shuttled through the soil, and the soil he dug up was collected into the space ring.

The surrounding environment was dark and cold, with only a faint light in Chen Fan's hand illuminating the surroundings. He seemed to be isolated from the world and immersed in his own world.

After digging for a while, he returned the solid soil to the ground and continued digging. His movements were light and agile, as if he were one with the ground.

While digging, he came across some crystal clear roots. These roots were like dead things, without any movement. Chen Fan carefully avoided them, did not dare to touch them, and tried to avoid any contact with the roots.

He imagined the powerful existence of the willow tree demon. At this moment, he seemed insignificant in front of this demon tree. He tried his best to make himself appear less present than an ant, so that the willow tree demon would not notice him.

"Wealth can be found in danger!" Chen Fan thought silently in his heart. This was his belief and motivation.

"Dang it under the eyes of the ninth grade, and you will have bragging rights in the future." He said to himself, with a proud smile on his face.

As he dug all the way, Chen Fan did not encounter a source of water, and the soil underground seemed dry but not wet. There was an earthy smell in the air, intertwined with his breath.

He continued to dig carefully, each movement filled with caution and patience.

Suddenly, Chen Fan stopped what he was doing, with an expression of surprise on his face. He felt something hard touch his hand, which told him that the energy mine was not far below.

At this moment, Chen Fan has become a clay figure. However, he didn't care. Even the dirt stopped moving upwards and began to flow forward along the outer mud and rocks. He knew that he was getting closer to his goal at this moment.

"Sure enough, there is a mineral deposit, and it's not too deep." Chen Fan said to himself, his voice echoing in the quiet night, appearing particularly clear.

"It should be down there," he continued, his tone full of confidence and determination.

So, he speeded up the digging and no longer missed the soil on the ground. He knew that the next few moments would be crucial.

In the dim underground, Chen Fan carefully surged forward along the direction of the veins. The surrounding environment seemed to be dead silent, with only a faint light in his hand illuminating the surroundings.

As he gradually went deeper underground, Chen Fan's eyes gradually became wary. He discovered that there were indeed some hollow areas underground here. These holes are like bottomless traps, which is daunting.

What shocked Chen Fan even more was that these holes were surrounded by crystal clear roots. These roots seemed to be alive, weaving a huge cage that tightly wrapped the entire mineral vein.

Chen Fan carefully stretched out his hand to touch these roots. They seemed to be motionless, as if they were just sleeping. However, Chen Fan knew that once he felt threatened, these roots would instantly turn into deadly weapons.

"No wonder no one can enter the underground of the royal city to steal minerals!" Chen Fan thought silently in his heart, and he understood the plight of the previous miners.

The scene in front of him shocked him deeply, and at the same time, it strengthened his determination to catch a big one.

Otherwise, it would be a big loss to go through all the trouble to enter the royal city in the caves and not get anything.

These energy mines are left behind to expand the caves. For the hope of mankind's victory, he needs to dig out these energy stones as much as possible. (End of chapter)
