There were only four of the hunchback monsters. Since Zheng Bingxiao's Rock Golem was clearing the path ahead, it did not detect anything out of place along the way. Therefore, Mu Nujiao, Mo Fan, and Liao Mingxuan, who were following behind, had assumed their path was clear. The tunnel was not wide at all, thus they should be able to notice any beasts easily.

To their surprise, the wall of the tunnel had already crumbled. There was a giant gap hidden by the black vines, preventing them from noticing it at the start.

Luckily, while Zhao Manting was lighting up the area with his Brilliant Light, it had also blinded the creatures for a second. Otherwise, they would have lunged at Mu Nujiao earlier!

”It's the Cavern Slaves!” As expected of a genius, Qingqing was able to identify the beasts hiding behind the vines after only a quick glance.

However, Mo Fan could not have cared less what they were called. As his flame exposed their location, he immediately followed up with a Lightning Strike from his left hand as a gift.

The tendrils of the Lightning Strike were like pythons winding their bodies, racing rapidly toward two of the Cavern Slaves. The violet sparkle covered their entire bodies and the shock caused them to dance wildly, as if they were at a disco.

”Maa!!”

A bleat similar to a sheep's was heard, but incredibly sharp and lacking any hint of softness!

The Cavern Slaves leapt forward furiously. One of them lashed at Mo Fan's head with the giant bone in its hand.

”These creatures like to smash anything alive into meat paste. Watch out for the bones, they will crush your skull instantly!” Qingqing immediately reminded Mo Fan.

”If you have the time to speak, please lend a hand by casting a spell!” Mo Fan could feel his head aching.

Fortunately, Mu Nujiao was more reliable. She altered her wind path and extend it to Mo Fan to speed his movement up.

Mo Fan dodged aside and saw the bone stick itself deep into the spot he was standing at. The rail that it struck instantly bent into the ground!

Mo Fan could finally take a closer look at the Cavern Slave's appearance. It had a stooped figure with bent hind legs. However, its front limbs were incredibly muscular, and together with its wrinkled skin, Mo Fan preferred to call it ugly instead of ferocious!

Who knew how long these ugly creatures had stayed single, that their arms could be so brawny. They would lash their bone sticks at anything they saw, and the limited space that restricted their ability to dodge did not help at all.

”Vine Lash!”

Mu Nujiao spoke as the Cavern Slave was about to hit Mo Fan.

There were plenty of vines around, so her Plant Element was super handy. She easily summoned a vine whip into her hand and struck the Cavern Slave's legs hard.

She did not end her attack there, as she seized the opportunity to tangle the Cavern Slave's legs up with the vine and hang it upside down in the air.

The Cavern Slave let out a panicking scream while waving its bone stick wildly.
