Chapter 920 Doubt
"Friend Daoist Li, you don't know the Great Ruins? This Great Ruins is the most special area in the Scaled Sky Realm. It is a legendary hidden place that hides a large number of hidden treasures. It is said that the two cities of Xuankai have searched for it separately. I don’t know how many years, but I didn’t expect it to actually appear now.” Gu Qianxun was obviously also very surprised, and replied through sound transmission.
While listening to him, Han Li couldn't help looking at Shi Chuankong.
"This time the journey is long and unpredictable. If there are people who are uncertain, they can withdraw now. Once they leave the city, they should not be wavering again. Otherwise, they will be punished as defectors." Eyao swept his eyes across the crowd and said.
Almost all of these people in the audience looked fascinated, and none of them withdrew.
"Very well, it seems that you are all men of resolute minds, and you will surely achieve great results in this trip. Before leaving, I have one more thing to remind you. Although Puppet City is temporarily joining forces with us, it is absolutely necessary to be on guard. I hope All of you can unite as one, work together, and seek secret treasures together." Eh said loudly.
"I would like to obey the order of the city lord." Everyone heard the words and shouted in unison.
About an hour later, the tall gate of Xuancheng's main city slowly opened, and a team composed of more than a dozen huge scale beasts slowly passed through the gate and headed out of the city.
The scaled beast headed by it is more than a hundred feet tall, with a head like a young man and a body like a giant crocodile. On its back is a black stone palace with carved flowers and star bones.
Followed by a dozen huge black-scaled elephants, also carrying black stone temples on their backs, but the shape is simple and unpretentious, and it is incomparable to the one in Erhua.
In the team, Chen Yang led Taoist Xie to monopolize a stone hall, while Han Li and the three shared one.
The area of the stone hall is not small, the three of them each occupy a house, and there is still a surplus.
When the team left the city, Han Li didn't rush back to the hall to rest, but came outside the hall, standing on the back of the black scaled elephant and looking up, but his line of sight couldn't be too far away. the Chongxuan Mountains.
After about a quarter of an hour, the whole team turned over a pass in the mountains, and the sight finally became wider.
Han Li was condescending, and when he glanced over, he couldn't help but let out a soft "Huh".
On the hillside on the other side of the mountain range, there were dozens of black-scaled elephants crouching, each wearing scale armor, with beast cores embedded in their chests, and two sharp spears protruding from their mouths. They looked lifeless from top to bottom. , without any vitality.
"They're all puppets..." Han Li pondered.
At this moment, a figure flew over above the head suddenly, hovering in front of everyone.
Han Li's heart moved, and he looked up, and saw a handsome young man wearing a set of black armor with two bone halberds crossed behind his back, hovering in the air at a height of one hundred feet.
It is common sense that there is no spiritual power and demonic energy in the Accumulated Scale Sky Realm, and it is common sense that he cannot fly in the air, but this person can stand in the air, which immediately caused a commotion in Xuancheng, and many people came out of the stone hall one after another, and came out to watch.
However, the several city lords did not make any movement.
Zhu Ziqing stood at the same place as his elder brother, looking at the young man with a bewildered face, and whispered: "What a handsome little brother..."
"What nonsense, that is the enemy of our Xuancheng." Zhu Ziyuan frowned, rewarded her with a chestnut, and reminded.
"I see..." Zhu Ziqing nodded, not daring to continue joking, and said seriously.
Looking at the handsome young man with a gentle smile on his face, Han Li always felt a little awkward.
He moved his gaze upwards, all the way to the clouds in the sky, only to find that the clouds in the sky above the young man's head were obviously darker, and something was not quite right.
"All the city lords and comrades of Xuancheng, Master Sha Xin wants me to come and inform. In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and conflicts, our teams from the two cities traveled one after the other before arriving at the destination." Suddenly, the handsome young man spoke.
Its voice was actually between a man and a woman, and it was extremely pleasant to hear.
After a moment of silence on Xuancheng's side, Zhu Ziyuan seemed to have received an order suddenly, and said, "Please go back and report, our Lord Exiu has exactly the intention."
Seeing this, the handsome young man's eyes fell on Zhu Ziyuan, he smiled slightly, cupped his fists, turned and left.
At this time, Han Li saw that deep in the clouds in the sky, there was a black shadow moving away with it. When it landed on the side of the puppet city team, it revealed its real body, which was actually a huge winged scale bird.
This bird also has a beast core embedded in its chest, and it is full of lifeless energy. It looks like a puppet, and it is being controlled by that handsome young man, so it walks through the sky with some kind of silk that is invisible to the naked eye. .
Not long after, I heard a loud horn sound from the puppet city team ahead, and those scaled beast puppets crouching on the hillside began to stand up one by one, and moved forward slowly.
There was a distance of hundreds of feet between the two sides, and the troops of Xuancheng also started to move, following the puppet city team in front to continue on their way.
The sky is high and the clouds are wide, the scene on the ground can be seen at a glance, and the eyes are full of desolation.
After Han Li watched it for a while, he felt a little bored, so he returned to his room and sat cross-legged to adjust his breath.
...
at night.
Han Li woke up from his breathing meditation, left the room, and came outside the stone hall.
Under the clear moonlight, he jumped up from the back of the black-scaled elephant, landed on the back of another black-scaled elephant in front of him, and walked a few steps to the stone temple on the elephant's back.
Before he could open his mouth, Chen Yang's voice sounded in the hall: "Fellow Daoist Li, I knew you were coming, I have been waiting for you for a long time..."
Upon hearing this, Han Li pushed open the door of the Stone Palace and walked in.
As soon as he entered the hall, Han Li saw Daoist Xie standing by the door with his hands tied. Seeing him coming in, he led him to the door of a house.
During this period, Daoist Xie didn't have much expression on his face, and he didn't have extra communication with Han Li.
Han Li got used to this, pushed open the door and walked in.
"Please sit down." Chen Yang greeted him and said to Han Li.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, today..." Han Li was interrupted by a light wave of his hand as soon as Han Li spoke.
"Fellow Daoist Li, today's Fellow Daoist Shikong is probably not the same person you know..." Chen Yang said with a sigh.
"What's going on?" Han Li asked, frowning.
"This... the fact that Du Qingyang sent Fellow Daoist Shi Kong to Xuancheng back then was done in a secret way, and it took me a long time to find out. I don't know what the quarrel was at all. This is also the first time in Xuancheng. When I saw him, he made me feel like...a puppet." Chen Yang said hesitantly.
When Han Li heard this, his expression changed slightly, and his brows were furrowed even tighter.
"However, it's a little different. I don't know exactly what it feels like. Anyway, it's not wise for you to approach him at this time." Chen Yang added suddenly.
"If I really wanted to act rashly, I wouldn't have come to you right now." Han Li said slowly with a slightly relaxed expression.
He looked calm on the surface, but doubts abounded in his heart.
Before entering the Lined Sky Realm that year, the third prince Shi Pokong had given them each a jade ring in the shape of a leaf, which was a seal letter that could determine their location, and it was the biggest reliance for them to escape from the Lined Sky Realm.
He had been in danger several times before, but he had never used this thing because he hadn't found Zi Ling yet, and he didn't want to waste all his previous efforts like this, but what was Shi Chuankong for?
If it really has reached the point where it may be wiped out and turned into a puppet, why doesn't he use this thing? Han Li didn't believe that with his strength, he wouldn't even have a chance to use this thing?
"That's right, Fellow Daoist Li has always been thoughtful, how could he be that reckless person." Chen Yang laughed.
"It's not convenient for me to investigate here, so I'll ask Fellow Daoist Chen to take care of this matter." Han Li said immediately after hearing this.
"Sternly, don't worry, I will definitely pay attention to this matter, and if I hear any news, I will let you know." Chen Yang solemnly said.
"Thank you." Han Li clasped his fists and said.
"You don't need to be too polite. It's a long way to go to Daxu, and I don't know what's going on ahead. Brother Li also needs to take a good rest to cope with it..." Chen Yang waved his hand and said with emotion.
After the two chatted for a while, Han Li bid farewell and left.
Back in his room, he sat quietly and thought for a while, put away his distracting thoughts, slowly closed his eyes, and began to silently practice "Tiansha Suppressing Prison Technique".
...
Time flies, more than a month has passed.
Two teams of scaled beasts, one in front and one behind, were slowly crossing a long and narrow mountain pass with a distance of thousands of feet.
The team in front hadn't had time to leave the mountain pass, and the team in the rear had just entered it, when there was a loud beast cry in the sky, and a gigantic double-headed falcon flew past from the sky.
Its body is huge, and its body is covered with dense black scales. When its wings spread out, it looks like dark clouds in the sky, casting a huge black shadow below, almost covering the entire mountain pass.
When it flew past, its wings rolled suddenly, and two white air currents visible to the naked eye surged down, suddenly bombarding the mountain walls on both sides.
There were two loud bangs, and both sides of the mountain pass collapsed, billowing smoke and dust rising into the sky.
The scaled beasts at the back were frightened, and retreated towards the outside of the mountain pass, but the scaled beast puppets in the front still walked towards the front of the mountain pass unhurriedly.
Han Liben was meditating in the room, and when he sensed movement, he rushed out, and happened to see huge boulders rolling down in front of him, quickly filling up the entire mountain pass.
The sky was covered with dust and the sun was obscured, making it impossible to see clearly.
Everyone from Xuancheng rushed out one after another, stood on the back of the black-scaled elephant, and looked ahead.
At this moment, a burst of dazzling white light suddenly erupted from the mountain pass in front, and a powerful force of stars rushed out of it, turning into an arc-shaped light wave, rushing from the mountain pass to the sky.
There was a loud bang!
A large piece of rock and sand burst out, rushing into the sky like a volcanic eruption, turning into a shower of sand and stone, and scattered in all directions.
A powerful air current, also in the shape of a spiral, surged out from the mountain pass, rushed out the rocks and sand accumulated in it, and spurted out violently. The narrow and long mountain pass that was originally blocked was also penetrated again. .
