Su Yu stayed in the cave for five days.

When I'm thirsty, I drink water dripping from the cracks in the rock. When I'm hungry, I eat Bigu Pills. When I'm sleepy, I lean against the cave wall and fall asleep - I don't dare to sleep to death, half of my mind is always hanging on.

The rest of the time is spent doing one thing: waiting.

Waiting for Tiandao to deduct his time every morning.

Passive tax deduction is the only way for him to grow without paying extra costs, and he gets ten time marks every day.

What's more important is that every passive deduction of breath is adding bricks and stones to the golden mark. Every fifty points, the golden mark is condensed into a golden mark. This is his only bargaining chip against the catastrophe.

At midnight on the fifth day.

The hourglass vibrates and remains absolutely still.

After a breath, Su Yu opened his eyes.

[Time mark: 99]

[Gold marks: 2 (100/50, condensed)]

[Black marks: 5]

[It takes 1 point to strengthen the physical body]

The second golden trace formed.

Two golden marks, five black marks - still four short of nine heavenly tribulations.

But the gap between two gold marks and five black marks is still there.

In the past five days, he had repeatedly studied the skills on the King of Time Monument and gained a deeper understanding of the power of time.

The core of Time Explosion is "Time Sequence Tear", but with his current total amount of time traces, the damage to those above the middle stage of Qi Refining is limited. The real killer move is the absolute stillness of that breath.

While still, he can use a hunter's means - poison, traps, enemy weapons - to make up for the power gap.

In addition, he also figured out the precise control of the power of time: the smaller the range, the less consumption.

If you only stop time within one foot of your body, you can theoretically only have one breath of life - but precise control requires a high degree of concentration, and the success rate is only 50%.

While he was thinking about it, footsteps came from outside the cave.

Su Yu was instantly alert, grabbed the Baidu Steel Knife and lowered himself close to the cave wall.

The cracks on the knife have been wrapped tightly with vines, so it can still be used for the time being.

The footsteps came from far to near, and there were more than one person.

"I've been looking for him for five days, but I haven't even seen him."

The rough and low voice - it was the Scarface whom I had seen by the stream that night.

"Junior Sister Lin said that boy is good at using poisons and traps, so don't be careless."

Another feminine voice was that of a young man at the sixth level of Qi Refining, "But there are not many people who can make Junior Sister Lin suffer.

A mining slave with no cultivation level and relying solely on poison and traps crippled Tuxue, so he was quite capable.

This kid must have gotten something good in the mine—maybe it was some secret treasure left over from ancient times."

"Whether it's a secret treasure or a skill, if you catch someone, won't you know everything?"

The scarred face sneered, "Han Tie's fourth level of Qi Refining is broken. If this kid doesn't have anything on him, who would believe it?"

Su Yu clenched the handle of the knife and silently moved deeper into the cave.

There is a narrow rock crevice in the deepest part of the cave that leads to the other side of the mountain. It is difficult for an adult to move sideways, but he has lost a lot of weight these days by relying on the Bigu Pill, so he should be able to get through it.

Just when he touched the entrance of the rock crevice, the footsteps at the entrance of the cave stopped.

"Wait."

Scarface's voice suddenly became solemn, "There is something in this hole - a very faint smell of blood, it's human blood."

Su Yu's heart trembled.

Scarface's nose was very good. He had been in the cave for five days, and the smell of blood on his body had long since dissipated. However, the smell of the bigu elixir dregs and the subtle traces of scabs falling off the wounds were actually smelled by this person.

"In the cave!"

Scarface shouted and drew out the long knife from his waist.

The pitch-black blade glowed with a strange green light—the poison was quenched.

He shouted into the depths of the cave: “People inside, come out!

This cave is a dead end and you can't escape."
