Shen Yuan Ring

Wang Yueyue, who was still watching from the shore, was stunned. Everything happened too fast. She did not expect Ji Daoyi to be so bold as to jump into the river, and she did not expect the others to follow suit.

If she hadn't believed that Ji Daoyi wasn't a reckless person, Wang Yueyue would probably be anxious by now.

Wang Yueyue muttered to herself, "Could it be that Dao Yi has discovered something? I should let them be. After all, I can't interfere too much with their mission. If they don't come out for a long time, I'll go find them, otherwise the entire Ji family's sky might collapse."

In the vortex,

As soon as Ji Dao entered the vortex, he felt dizzy and disoriented. Before he could react, he was on the ground.

When Ji Dao opened his eyes, he found himself in an underground space filled with plants.

Ji Daoyi felt he had made the right bet. "I never expected there to be such a hidden world underwater. Moreover, the concentration of Yuan energy in this space is almost half that of the outer courtyard's cultivation room. Could there be a small underground Yuan vein here?"

Before Ji Daoyi could even properly observe his surroundings, Ji Xiaohu also fell from above. If he hadn't reacted quickly enough, he would have become Ji Xiaohu's human cushion.

Just as Ji Xiaohu was swaying as he stood up, several more figures fell from above, then piled up on top of him like a human pyramid.

When Ji Daoyi saw Ji Xiaohu being hit repeatedly, he silently mourned for him for a few seconds!

He helped the others up one by one. The last three were fine, but Ji Xiaohu was in a terrible state, becoming their human cushion.

Ji Daoyi, seeing them, asked in confusion, "Why did you all come down here? Aren't you afraid that if you come down with me, you'll never come back?"

"We all believe you're not a reckless person. You're incredibly shrewd; why would you risk your life like that!"

"Now that you've all come down, let's face the Sanhe Gang together!"

"Brother Dao, why am I so unlucky? Why am I always the one who gets hurt?"

Ji Daoyi was silent for a moment, looked at Ji Xiaohu, and finally blurted out, "Because you're fat!"

Ji Xiaohu looked at the others, then at himself, and realized that he was indeed the fattest among them.

(Could it really be because I'm fat? No, I need to lose weight after this mission, I need to change!)

Ji Daoyi had no idea that one sentence from him would make a fat man want to lose weight!

The underground space is vast; unlike the open space on the surface, it is narrow and winding, like a pipe.

The walls of the underground space were covered with many luminous pearls, which brought some light to the dark space!

After walking for a while, the group arrived at a relatively spacious area where some wooden crates were piled up, looking very much like cargo crates delivered by the bandits from the stronghold.

Upon seeing the wooden crates, Ji Xiaohu ran over to examine them and exclaimed, "Brother Dao, those crates are here, which means the Sanhe Gang must be here too!"

"I'm not blind, it's so obvious." Ji Daoyi also rubbed his forehead, speechless at Ji Xiaohu's clueless behavior.

"Let's ignore these boxes for now. The most important thing right now is to wipe out the Sanhe Gang."

"You think you can wipe out our Sanhe Gang? What a boastful tone!"

A deep, resonant voice rang out from the depths, echoing throughout the cave and instantly escalating the tension to an extreme.

Then, dozens of people appeared before them. The leader was a middle-aged man with a murderous aura; he was the one who had just spoken. Each person behind him carried a low-grade yellow-level longsword—the newly formed bandits were incredibly wealthy!

It should be noted that even small families would not dare to claim that each member possesses a low-grade Yellow-level Yuan weapon, yet the newly formed Sanhe Gang of bandits manages to have one Yuan weapon for each member.

The middle-aged man approached and saw that they were five immature children. He immediately burst into laughter: "Who has such a big mouth! Claiming to wipe out our Sanhe Gang? Turns out, it's just five little brats who haven't been weaned! It seems that I, Niu Xiaosan, haven't been out and about for a long time. Even children dare to say they'll wipe us out on my turf."

"Haha, big brother, leave these little brats to me. I promise I won't let them dirty your hands."

The Sanhe Gang members burst into laughter, as if mocking Ji Daoyi and his friends for overestimating their abilities.

Ji Daoyi and the others were not intimidated by the large number of the other party. On the contrary, they breathed a sigh of relief after sensing the cultivation aura of all of them!

Because the person with the highest cultivation level was Niu Xiaosan, who was walking in front and speaking. His cultivation level was only at the peak of Blood Refining, and Niu Xiaosan's aura was unstable and unsteady, which was obviously due to the fact that he had recently used pills to improve his cultivation level!

Ji Daoyi didn't take this level of opponent seriously. As for the others, their cultivation levels varied greatly, ranging from bone refinement to marrow refinement. However, their auras were as unstable as Niu Xiaosan's!

When Ji Dao saw that the other party was mocking him for being a child, he sneered and said, "You are the petty thieves from the Sanhe area who have been stealing chickens and dogs recently! The bandits who robbed the Ji family of their medicinal herbs not long ago?"

"So what if it is, you little brat? You're small but you've got a big mouth. Since you've found my secret base, I have no choice but to send you to hell!" Niu Xiaosan said sinisterly.

He didn't believe that these children could cause any trouble in front of dozens of people, but he forgot that only those with cultivation levels above the Bone Refining Realm could survive the vortex.

Niu Xiaosan was able to enter this underground space by sheer luck; those who were with him had long since died in the vortex. Only he, with his Bone Refining Realm cultivation, managed to survive.

Then, in this underwater space, he obtained elixirs and spirit stones, and his cultivation level soared. He went out and not only founded the Three Rivers Gang, recruiting many rogue cultivators and ordinary people as his followers, but he also recently broke through to the peak of the Blood Refining Realm, and his inner desires were amplified infinitely.

It was precisely because of his desires and arrogance that he intercepted the medicinal herbs being transported by the Ji family, which led to the Ji family placing a bounty on his head.

"Now that you've admitted it, we're relieved."

Upon receiving confirmation from Niu Xiaosan, Ji Daoyi flashed in front of him and then struck out with a palm.

"Yellow Wind Palm"

Before Niu Xiaosan could react, he was slammed away, knocking down a group of people behind him!

"None of you are going to make a move? In that case, I'll accept them all!"

When Ji Daoyi made the decision to immediately deal with the others, Ji Xiaohu and the others reacted instantly and took action.

"Hey, Brother Dao, have mercy! You don't need to bother with these small fry!"

"Yes, leave these people to us. You've already had the meat, so we should at least get some soup!"

"Exactly! Their mockery just now really annoyed me. I'm going to show them that arrogance always leads to trouble!"

In this war, they were simply slaughtering the enemy. The bandits on the other side didn't even have the strength to resist. In the end, the bandits stopped resisting and fled one after another.
