Chapter 18: Battle of the Lair

The two finished dividing the spoils.

In the following time, in order to protect the safety of the mortals of the family.

Chen Qingyan announced that the mining of the mineral veins would be temporarily suspended, asking everyone to have a good rest and not to walk around at will to avoid encountering the Fire Cloud Lizard.

At the same time, she was always paying attention to the movements of the fire cloud lizard.

Through Baili Soul Chasing Incense, she controlled the movement trajectory of this fire cloud lizard.

Chen Qingyan could clearly sense that after penetrating deep into the mineral vein, the Fire Cloud Lizard did not stay in the mineral vein.

Instead, they went all the way north, leaving the scope of the mineral veins and entering the northern area of ​​Zhenhai Island.

The northern part of Zhenhai Island is the highest area on the island and is composed of hills.

It is also the birthplace of the island's rivers.

That area is about ten miles away from here.

He just continued to pay attention for a while, and soon Chen Qingyan noticed that the Fire Cloud Lizard stopped moving there.

She informed Chen Qingyun of this discovery.

"Probably back to the lair."

Chen Qingyun suggested: "Without further delay, let's go over and have a look now."

The two set off immediately, heading towards the north of Zhenhai Island.

With the wind control technique in play, the two of them arrived at their destination in just about a cup of tea.

The surrounding mountains are undulating, with numerous hills and lush vegetation.

Chen Qingyan was not familiar with the environment in this area.

Chen Qingyan is not familiar with this place.

Chen Qingyun was even less familiar with it. He looked around a few times and found nothing similar to a nest.

Chen Qingyun couldn't help but ask.

"Where is the Fire Cloud Lizard now? Can you feel the specific location?"

Hearing Chen Qingyun's inquiry, Chen Qingyan sensed the location information transmitted by Baili Soul Chasing Incense, raised her hand, and pointed her jade finger in a direction.

"There."

As soon as she finished speaking, she released the earth puppet.

Seeing the Fifth Sister's manipulation, Chen Qingyun thought a battle was about to begin.

The next moment, all Chen Qingyan said was heard.

"In order to avoid alerting the enemy, let's use the Earth Puppet to investigate first."

Um?

Chen Qingyan's move made Chen Qingyun secretly surprised.

As a peer, the fifth sister is three years older than me. This cautious and cautious style is really rare.

It was not unreasonable for the family to agree to her managing the mining of the mineral vein.

With Chen Qingyan's finger pointing, the Tuxing puppet received the order and immediately escaped into the ground. It took full advantage of its own advantages and acted as a scout, sneaking towards the Fire Cloud Lizard.

Watching the earth-walking puppet disappear underground, with no trace visible, Chen Qingyun realized that the earth-walking puppet could also be used for tracking or exploration.

Let’s just say that the surrounding areas, whether they are rocks or the ground, are all earth-attribute elements.

Earth puppets can completely integrate into these earth substances and move forward without being noticed.

If it weren't for refining the earth puppet, it would require the consumption of spiritual energy, otherwise Chen Qingyan would not be able to refine just one.

After just waiting for a while, Chen Qingyan said: "There really is their nest here!"

By controlling the earth-moving puppet, you can share your vision and see what the puppet sees.

Chen Qingyan clearly saw a small cave in a cliff in the distance.

The fire cloud lizard entered that cave.

The earth puppet followed and sneaked into it, and what he saw was what Chen Qingyan saw.

In the cave, traces of several other fire cloud lizards can be seen, as well as some unknown purple ores, which are placed on the ground and emit a hazy purple light.

"What's going on inside? How many fire cloud lizards are there?"

Chen Qingyun asked.

Once you find the lair where the Fire Cloud Lizard is, it will be much easier to clean it up.

It can be done to eliminate the roots.

"There are three Fire Cloud Lizards in total, one is at the third level of Qi Refining, one is at the second level of Qi Refining, and one..."

When he said this, Chen Qingyan frowned slightly.

"The third fire cloud lizard, its strength should have reached the fifth level of Qi refining!"

"Fifth level of Qi refining."

Chen Qingyun murmured to himself.

The first two Fire Cloud Lizards are easy to deal with.

The remaining one, who is at the fifth level of Qi Refining, has such strength that he is on par with himself.

Whether it can be defeated or not is still unclear.

"Eh..."

While thinking about it, Chen Qingyan was surprised.

"Fifth sister, what's wrong?"

Chen Qingyun asked.

Anything new in the lair?

"In addition to the three fire cloud lizards, there are also some ores in the lair."

Chen Qingyan's eyes flashed with light.

"However, I haven't recognized what the ores are."

At this time, it is not the time to understand this.

The most urgent task is to deal with these fire cloud lizards first.

The two of them discussed whether they should let the family send someone here to clean up, or whether they should do it themselves.

"The fifth level of Qi Refining is not too difficult. Let me deal with it. If we really can't defeat it, we can ask the family for help."

Chen Qingyun suggested.

This is also a good idea.

Chen Qingyun's idea is that if he can avoid asking for help from his family, he should try not to ask for help.

"Since you are sure of a fight, let's do it."

Chen Qingyan had no intention of backing down at all.

With Chen Qingyun taking the lead, she could deal with one of them.

Chen Qingyun used the Green Light Sword.

Chen Qingyan also used his flying sword.

The two flew towards the nest of the Fire Cloud Lizard, one in front and one behind.

The Fire Cloud Lizard in the cave was resting at this time. As two figures appeared in the cave, they all stood up and looked towards the entrance of the cave.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh.

One of the Fire Cloud Lizards took the lead in launching an attack, gushing out raging fire from its mouth and rushing towards Chen Qingyun.

Facing the flame attack, Chen Qingyun used his body skills to dodge and avoided the flame attack in one go.

He urged the Green Light Sword and slashed forward with one sword.

Whoosh!

The Green Light Sword turned into a stream of light, and in just a blink of an eye, it killed the Fire Cloud Lizard.

The Fire Cloud Lizard pulled back to dodge, and its huge body moved, and its movements were not slow. At the critical moment, it avoided the slash of the Green Light Sword.

The Green Light Sword slashed the air, and slashed on the ground with a loud bang, leaving a long sword mark on the ground.

Chen Qingyun raised his eyebrows. He did not think of summoning the Earth Puppet at this time, and continued to control the Green Light Sword.

The green flying sword rose up and left the ground.

This time, Chen Qingyun used the sword moves in the Qingyuan Sword Art. The speed of the Green Light Sword increased dramatically, and it slashed at the Fire Cloud Lizard in an arc from top to bottom.

The mighty sword was unstoppable.

The power of this sword was amazing, and the speed was also extremely fast, making it impossible for the Fire Cloud Lizard to dodge.

As a result, the Fire Cloud Lizard could only watch the flying sword slash in front of it while it was doing useless dodging.

With a clang.

The Green Light Sword hit the target!
