Chapter 418: Flood
"We have to speed up, this barrier won't last long." Chen Yile shouted.
They adjusted the formation more nervously, hoping to find a more effective way of attack.
Thanks to their efforts, the formation underwent new changes.
Rays of light appeared on the stone platform, and the rays of light gathered together to form a huge lightsaber.
The lightsaber slashed towards Blackhand, directly cutting off several of Blackhand's fingers.
Blackhand screamed in pain, and its attacks became more frantic, but under the attack of the lightsaber, it was gradually at a disadvantage.
However, just when they thought they had successfully escaped danger, an even stronger burst of eerie laughter came from the cave.
This laughter was even more terrifying than before, as if it came from the depths of hell.
As the laughter came, the surrounding environment changed again.
The flames began to die out, the cracks in the ground gradually closed, and the light of the lightsaber grew dim.
Under Blackhand's continuous attack, a crack appeared in the barrier.
Their hearts were once again filled with fear, not knowing what new danger would arise.
Suddenly, another black hand stretched out from the coffin. This black hand was larger than the previous one, and the bone spurs on it were sharper.
Two black hands attacked the barrier at the same time, and the cracks on the barrier became bigger and bigger.
"What should we do?" Lin Qingyao asked anxiously.
Chen Yile frowned and looked at the formation, trying to find a new solution.
Lin Feihong held the freedom stick tightly, ready to fight the enemy to the death when the barrier was broken.
At this critical moment, Chen Yile discovered a hidden button on the formation.
The button is located at the bottom of the stone platform, covered by some dust.
He bent down, blew away the dust, and pressed the button.
As the button was pressed, the formation changed again.
The entire underground square began to shake violently, and the coffin on the stone platform also shook violently.
A large amount of water gushed out from all sides of the square, rushing towards Black Hand and the coffin like a surging tide.
The water flow has a strong impact.
Directly push away the black hand,
And submerge the coffin in water.
The bone warriors were also washed away by the impact of the water and disappeared without a trace.
They breathed a sigh of relief.
But they knew the danger was not over yet.
The water keeps rising,
Soon the water came up to their knees.
They watched the rising waters,
Start looking for an exit.
On one side of the square,
They discovered a passage hidden by the current.
There is a stream of water flowing out of the channel.
They speculated that this passage might be a way to the outside.
They swam towards the passage,
Struggling to move forward in the water.
The walls of the passage were extremely slippery, and there seemed to be some slippery moss growing on them.
The mosses were like countless pairs of green hands, gently brushing across their bodies, bringing bursts of coolness.
Every time I swim, I can feel the cold water seeping into my pores like a ghost.
It seemed as if it wanted to devour all their body heat.
Suddenly, Lin Feihong felt something entangled under his feet.
He looked down and saw a mass of long black hair. The hair spread out from the darkness under the water, twisting as if it had life, tightly wrapped around his ankles, and climbed up his legs.
It was cold and sticky, giving him goosebumps.
Lin Feihong struggled in fear, but felt that the hair was getting tighter and tighter, like an iron hoop.
"I'm entangled, something is grabbing me!" Lin Feihong shouted in horror, his voice echoing in the narrow passage with a hint of despair.
Chen Yile and Lin Qingyao swam over hurriedly.
Chen Yile pulled the hair hard, but found that it was extremely tough, as if it was made of woven steel wire.
Every time he pulled, the hair became tangled tighter, and Lin Feihong's face turned pale with pain.
Lin Qingyao took out the Qingfu Sword and chopped at the hair.
The Qing Fu Sword chopped off the hair, splashing water and cutting off some of the hair.
But more hair surged up from the bottom of the water, like countless black snakes, rushing towards them.
At this moment, a strong stench filled the water, as if countless corpses were rotting at the bottom of the water.
They struggled hard, fighting against the strange hair in the water.
Chen Yile exerted a special power, and a faint halo appeared around his body. Wherever the halo went, his hair was shaken open a little.
He pulled Lin Qingyao and Lin Feihong and continued to swim forward. However, the water in front of them became more and more turbulent, like an invisible big hand, dragging them into the endless abyss.
They were swept into a huge whirlpool by the water current, their bodies kept spinning in the whirlpool, and they felt dizzy.
The water pressure around them continued to increase, as if it was going to crush their bodies.
Chen Yile held Lin Qingyao and Lin Feihong's hands tightly to prevent them from being swept away by the whirlpool.
In the center of the whirlpool, they saw a blurry figure. It looked like a human, but its body was swollen, its skin was a sickening bluish-white, and some torn cloths were hanging from its body, floating in the current.
As they got closer to the shadow, the water around them grew colder and their bodies began to go numb.
Chen Yile tried to use his strength to resist the cold and the power of the vortex, but he felt that his strength was so insignificant in the face of this unknown horror.
The shadow's face gradually became clear. It was an extremely distorted face with bulging eyes and swollen and cracked lips. It seemed to be shouting silently or uttering a curse.
Just when they thought they were about to be swallowed by the shadow, a mysterious force came from the depths of the passage.
This force seemed to counteract the black shadow, and the power of the vortex gradually weakened.
They took the opportunity to break free from the whirlpool and swam towards the direction where the force came from.
When they swam out of the whirlpool, they found a faint light ahead of them. The light was like a beacon in the darkness, bringing them hope.
They swam faster towards the light, and finally, they surfaced.
They came to a new cave, which was filled with the smell of death.
The ground was covered with bones of various shapes, some intact and some broken, as if telling the tragic story that had happened here.
There were some tattered lanterns hanging on the walls of the cave. The light was dim and flickering, flashing from time to time, as if it would go out at any time.
However, before they could breathe a sigh of relief, a strange sound came from the cave again.
The sound was like someone chewing something hard, or like the sound of bones rubbing against each other. The "crunching" sound echoed in the silent cave, and each sound seemed to knock on their hearts, making people feel creepy.
As the sound got closer, they saw a group of figures wearing ragged miners' uniforms.
These figures moved slowly, their bodies covered with wounds and blood, some even missing arms or legs. They dragged their mutilated bodies and walked towards them step by step.
