"There is another problem, that is, we are not completely sure now whether there is really a road behind the fish array."

Shirley Yang asked a question at this time.

In her opinion, this is a hidden danger that cannot be ignored. If there is no way out behind the fish formation, then they will be in a dilemma.

"Don't worry about this." Hu Bayi explained: "The underground river has been continuously transporting water downwards, but the water level has always been in a stable state, indicating that there must be an outlet for drainage in the pool below.

, control the water capacity in the pool within a fixed range."

He had already thought about this problem while looking at the internal situation of the water pool. He had already taken the opportunity to study it, so he said that the exit was after the fish formation.

"Then control the amount of explosives and try to minimize the blasting range to achieve the effect of breaking the surface with a few points." Chen Ziyan said.

They will definitely have to take the water route next, and the problem before them now is nothing more than how to pry open the door blocking the way.

After searching through the means currently available, the most reliable one is undoubtedly explosives, which is why he proposed using explosives to open a road.

There is no other way. If you want to attack such a dense fish formation, there is really no other way available.

You can't just use your body to resist, right?

Those are not dozens or hundreds of big fish, but thousands or even tens of thousands of huge fish. Even the most powerful Wushuang here is not capable of handling such a heavy task.

The topic once again returned to explosives. There was no suspense whether to use them or not. The only question was how to use them.

"That's all we can do." Hu Bayi nodded helplessly.

Chen Ziyan has already said this, and there is no need to say more about what it means.

What he has to consider now is not the possible consequences, but how to control the amount of explosives used.

If it comes to other things, Hu Bayi may not know who he will let go in the end, but for things like playing with explosives, the only candidates are him and Wang Kaixuan.

Therefore, the specific operation will definitely fall on them both.

Not only Hu Bayi knew this, but Wang Kaixuan was also very conscious and immediately asked: "Old Hu, what do you think we should do?"

"I'm afraid one spot is too much, so we need to prepare more." Hu Bayi said with some uncertainty after thinking about the size of the fish array in the pool.

The goal of dotting the noodles is fine, but considering the size and size of the fish below, it is probably more reliable to add dots in the middle to form a line.

After everyone studied for a while, they planned to prepare five sealed explosive bags for blasting. They would try one first and increase the intensity if it didn't work.

After all, they really don't know the specific thickness of the fish formation and the reaction of the fish school, especially the latter, which is an unknown quantity, so they need to make an attempt.

But trying is trying, everyone still got into the water together. If this method really works, then they will rush out in one go.

This underground river water from Xuefeng is very unique, clear and white. Especially after the searchlight is turned on, the white light keeps emerging, giving people a unique charm.

Chen Ziyan and the others did not all go to the bottom of the water, but stayed above and waited for the opportunity.

All the specific work was handed over to Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan. The two of them have good water skills and can move very quickly in the water. They are the best people to take charge of this matter.

Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan approached the fish school with explosives, but because the white-bearded fish kept swimming, the water at the bottom of the pool was a little turbid, so Chen Ziyan and the others could not see the specific movements of the two men, and they could only see two

A blurry figure.

But what can be seen is that after Wang Kaixuan tried to break through the school of fish to no avail, the two guys surrounded a big fish and started to raise and lower their hands.

Just when Chen Ziyan was about to take a closer look, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan suddenly released the big fish they were holding in their arms and swam towards it quickly.

And less than ten seconds after they left the school of fish, the fish they caught seemed to have been burst, broken into countless parts.

As a ball of blood mist exploded, there was a violent shaking at the bottom of the water, and then ripples began to vibrate around with the blood mist as the center.

The moment the shock occurred, Chen Ziyan felt as if even the crystal walls around the pool were shaking.

At this moment, Chen Ziyan, who had been staring at Hu Bayi and two people below, saw that Hu Bayi made an 'action' gesture on his own. He immediately understood that their action had achieved results, and quickly called to the people around him to come forward.

Dive underneath.

Worried that something might happen, the few of them moved very quickly. They endured the blood mist and fish carcass fragments coming towards their faces. They immediately joined the two people below, and then headed towards the deepest part of the pool together.

Go ahead.

Although the giant white bearded fish below were less affected, and due to the limited space for movement, there was no large-scale collapse like the outermost one. However, it is impossible to say that there was no impact at all. There were some loopholes in the original tight formation.

.

This kind of loophole may not be a big deal to these big guys, but to Chen Ziyan and the others, it is a sufficient passage.

Taking advantage of the gap where the shock wave had not completely dissipated, they flexibly passed through the blockade of the fish array and reached the true bottom of the pool.

Just as Hu Bayi guessed, the bottom of the pool is indeed a water outlet, but this water outlet looks like a channel.

But no one would care about this now. They all used their full strength and plunged into the passage that appeared in front of them.

Because a worse situation occurred, after the sudden fright, the fish behind them not only showed no signs of returning to their original state, but instead moved in the direction of riot.

I thought the school of fish would disperse to a wider pool, but unexpectedly some of them followed.

Chen Ziyan, who took the time to take a look, clearly saw that the white-bearded fish on the outside were frantically attacking the inner fish formation, and some small guys had already broken through and were rushing towards the channel where they were.

You must know that the fish are not easy to mess with at this time, and it is uncomfortable to be hit.

They must leave this crystal channel, which is only about ten meters in diameter, before more fish rush in.

Fortunately, the length of this crystal channel was not too long. Although everyone was somewhat impacted by the fish, they finally left the channel before most of them came.

The moment they left the crystal channel, they had no time to look at the surrounding environment, so they immediately hid behind the crystal wall next to the channel to avoid the torrent of fish.

After taking a breath, Chen Ziyan waited for the school of fish to pass by while taking stock of the situation in front of him.

The crystal channel they passed through just now was not straight, but a 'U'-shaped abnormal channel, so the position they were in now was not under the pool, but at another parallel body of water.

The scene in this water body is similar to the previous one, but it is obviously much larger than the artificial water pool. At least from their current position, they cannot see the end of the water pool.

After seeing that the subsequent fish schools were almost there, Chen Ziyan planned to call others to leave, but he remembered that there were many dangerous things in the water here.

But before he could make the 'retreat' gesture, everyone was stunned in unison.

They saw the water ripples in front of them, and then a giant white-bearded fish swam over from a distance.

This guy was at least twenty meters in length. The top of his head was as red as blood. His long snow-white beard was like a thick whip, waving it wantonly in the water. It looked very intimidating.

If there is a king of fish in this water area, it is definitely the old white bearded fish that has lived for who knows how long.

Although they knew that White Bearded Fish rarely attacks people, it would be a lie to say they were not frightened when such a huge creature appeared in front of them. Therefore, several people quietly maintained their original postures, not daring to move at all, for fear of causing trouble.

The other person’s attention.

After all, this guy's body shape is right there. To put it bluntly, there is absolutely no pressure to swallow a person in one gulp.

The old white bearded fish seemed to be attracted by the movement at the other end of the passage. After staring at the exit of the passage for a while, it found that there was no other movement. It shook its head slightly, and then turned around and left with a swaying head.

.

When this terrifying white-bearded fish was completely hidden in the depths of the lake, Chen Ziyan and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

Then everyone no longer hesitated and hurriedly helped each other swim toward the water.

Although their diving equipment can continue to hold on, who knows if there will be big guys of the same size in the water. In this case, for them, it is more reassuring to keep their feet on the ground.

The process of surfacing was smooth, but the moment they emerged from the water, they felt like they were in another world.

Because this place is no longer underground, but has returned to the ground!

Behind you is a cliff with tens of thousands of feet, in front of you is an endless lake, surrounded by lush forests, and above your head you can see large tracts of thick clouds and mist.

Such a scene gave all of them an unreal feeling.

They had been deep underground just now, but how could they arrive at such a paradise-like place in the blink of an eye?

"Go ashore first." Chen Ziyan reminded him quickly when he saw the others were stunned.

Now is not the time to relax, who knows whether the old white bearded fish will kill him or not, so it is better to go to the nearest shore.

After being reminded by him, the others also took action. Fortunately, there was a soil slope not far away from them, and they could just leave the lake from here.

After stepping on the ground again, Wang Kaixuan finally couldn't help it and asked his doubts: "Master Chen, what is going on? Why did we suddenly return to the ground?"

Although he has a limited knowledge of many things about reverse fighting, he can still clearly tell what the path he has traveled looks like.

The crystal passage just now was obviously in a very standard 'U' shape, so logically speaking, the exit should still be underground.

Although the depth of this lake is a little deeper than the pool on the other side, it is not so deep that it returns directly to the ground.

"Guardian friend, what do you think?" Chen Ziyan did not answer, but passed the blame to the blue-robed Tibetan.

He had some clues about this in his mind, but he was not sure yet, and with such a ready-made living map and encyclopedia, how could he not make good use of it.

The blue-robed Tibetan didn't pay attention to Chen Ziyan's little thoughts. After looking at the surrounding environment again, he said slowly: "We may not be back on the ground now, but we are still underground, but there is no ice cover.

underground."

He has never encountered this kind of situation, but it does not mean that he does not know it. The Kangbalo clan has been in Kunlun for thousands of years. Although he cannot say that he has understood every corner, he still knows most of the representative terrain.

.

"What do you think is that our current position has not changed, but the top cover has disappeared?" Hu Bayi asked.

He looked around and felt that this was a bit unbelievable.

It can be said that it is inside a crack, but if you look at the surrounding situation, the area here cannot be said to be small.

"This is a sinkhole." At this moment, Shirley Yang suddenly said.

She knew that this unique terrain seemed to be connected to the outside world, but in fact it was a completely unique small world with its own biological chain.

"Sinkhole? Does that mean that if we want to go back, we still have to go back the way we came?" Wang Kaixuan asked.

He had heard of tiankeng. It was said that if you go in, you can't get out. It is a very dangerous natural environment.

"That's not necessarily the case. It is indeed difficult to find a way out of the sinkhole, but that is for people who enter by mistake. We carry a lot of professional equipment, so it is easy to leave." Shirley Yang thought for a while and said.

She had learned some information about tiankeng, and knew that some people took what they said about this terrain and exaggerated its horror far beyond reality.

"It's not easy. At least it's not as difficult as returning the same way we came. It might even be higher." Chen Ziyan shook his head and pointed at the cliff behind him and the outline of the snow-capped mountains that could be seen in the distance.

If he guessed correctly, the scale of this tiankeng is far larger than ordinary tiankeng, and the barrier that blocks the connection between the inside and outside is also stronger. Needless to say, there is no need to say more about the towering cliffs that reach into the clouds.

Will try it easily.

As for the other directions, there should be equally tall snow-capped mountains.

Climbing such a snow-capped mountain is also not an easy task, so Chen Ziyan said that the difficulty is no less than returning the same way.

This is because returning the original way will encounter dangerous situations. If you are just rushing, the cost-effectiveness of returning the original way is far more than the road over the snow-capped mountains.

"Master Chen, I think we have to leave here first." Just when Chen Ziyan was thinking about how difficult it would be to cross the snow-capped mountains, Black Glasses suddenly came over and said.

"What's wrong?" Chen Ziyan asked.

Black Glasses pointed behind them. At this moment, the others discovered that there was a wide and winding road behind the short slope, leading directly to the dense forest not far away.
