Chapter 1992: Finally Entering the Palace

"Brother Shi, looking at you, could it be that you have gained nothing?"

After returning to the team, Han Li immediately noticed Shi Chuangkong's ugly expression and couldn't help but ask.

"Hey, I'm really unlucky. I didn't even see a cloud of sulfur blood, so I had no chance to fight for it."

Shi Chuankong sighed, shook his head and said.

"Did Fang Chan and the others get nothing?"

Han Li turned his eyes and asked casually.

"Well, they are the same as me, but the four city lords, the Zhu family brothers and sisters, and that Shao Ying all got at least a cloud of sulfur blood."

It would be fine if there weren't many sulfur blood clouds, but now that so many people have had the chance, it's no wonder Shi Chuankong feels uncomfortable.

Han Li just nodded slightly when he heard this, but he was already thinking about it.

After everyone came back, he immediately accelerated his progress.

So, after walking for more than an hour, the surrounding blood mist finally completely disappeared.

The scenery ahead suddenly opened up, and a continuous mountain range appeared in everyone's eyes.

The terrain of this mountain range is vast, and the peaks are rolling up and down, one after another, until the end of the sight in the distance.

But unlike the vibrant rainforest, these mountain peaks are barren of grass, as barren as ancient wilderness.

The most bizarre thing is that both the ground and the rocks here are blood red.

Among the high mountains, there are several blood-red rivers flowing, and there is a force of blood in the air, as if the entire mountain range is a corpse of flesh and blood.

However, not only was there no fishy smell in the air, but it smelled sweet!

Without letting anyone observe, Ebo led everyone into the blood-colored mountains without stopping.

After quickly climbing over several peaks, they arrived at a huge mountain basin.

I saw several large blood-colored rivers converging here, and at their intersection, a huge blood-colored hall stood impressively!

This palace is extremely majestic, even compared with the majestic mountain peaks beside it, it is not far behind.

In addition, even outside the main hall, there are jade pillars and silver-lettered Yao steps, which are overflowing with light and emit hundreds of millions of blood-red rays of light. It looks extremely spectacular.

After everyone saw it, they couldn't help but think of what kind of spectacular scene it would be in the palace.

Of course, an idea also occurred in everyone's mind at the same time:

"The city lord really didn't lie to us, there must be many treasures here!"

As a result, everyone immediately subconsciously looked towards the entrance of the hall, which was blocked by two blood-colored stone doors, with countless blood-colored runes and various patterns carved on them, which looked extremely complicated!

Although everyone couldn't quite understand it, the five black holes on the stone door were very conspicuous, especially because there were two mysterious words marked next to each hole, namely: Yezha, Youming, Biphosphorus, and Jingshen. , Yinghua.

Han Li immediately recognized two of them. They were the names of the two temples he had entered!

"City Lord, could this hall be the forbidden area you mentioned, and the blood-colored key obtained earlier will be used on that stone door?"

Qin Yuan was the first to ask.

"good."

Eva took a deep breath to calm down her inner excitement.

No one here knows how long he has been planning for today!

"Fellow Daoist Li, Chen Yang, please take out the Holy Key. We will open the door immediately and go in without further ado."

As soon as his mind calmed down, Ewan turned around and looked at Han Li and Chen Yangdao.

"You Chen Yang, you actually have the Holy Key on your body!"

Fu Jian was stunned when he heard this, and then he immediately pointed at Chen Yang and said with an unkind look.

"Why can't Chen have it? Are we both city lords and I have to ask you to help keep it?"

Chen Yang retorted at first, then flipped his palm and took out a holy key that glowed with blood.

"Li is also about to take out the holy key."

On the side, Han Li said with a normal expression, while flipping his palms and taking out two holy keys.

Seeing this scene, Fu Jian and others were shocked again. Obviously, they did not expect that Han Li had more than one holy key in his hand.

At that moment, Ebo nodded without any surprise, and then took out two holy keys.

In this way, the five holy keys needed to open the door are complete.

"I thought that if we wanted to open the door, we would definitely have to contend with the people from Puppet City. Unexpectedly, all five holy keys fell into the hands of our Xuancheng!"

Qin Yuan was extremely surprised.

Although he had provoked internal fighting before, he had never forgotten Puppet City.

However, after entering the Great Ruins, the monks in Puppet City seemed to have disappeared from the world, which is really worrying!

"It doesn't matter, as long as we get the opportunity first, we can take the initiative no matter what."

With that said, Ebo was about to take away the holy keys from Han Li and Chen Yang.

There was no surprise on Chenyang's side, but Han Li spoke at this time:

"Wait a minute, before we go in, should we discuss how to distribute the treasures in the palace?"

Everyone was silent after hearing this, obviously having guessed what Han Li was thinking.

"Hmph! We have worked together to get this far. Of course, everyone has a share. Except for the city lord, everyone else can share it equally."

Fu Jian snorted coldly and immediately proposed.

Neither he nor Qin Yuan could obtain a holy key. If they didn't set this rule, they would definitely suffer a big loss later.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yang asked:

"Fellow Daoist Fu, you have not made any achievements along the way. Where can you find the honor to be equally divided with us? Could it be that we owe you?"

"Okay, stop talking. It's not okay to divide it equally, but you were lucky to get the Holy Key. I will give you more, but I won't let the gap between you be too big."

Seeing that everyone was about to quarrel, Erqi immediately spoke up and finalized the distribution.

Although everyone might not be very satisfied with his method, at least they could accept it, so the storm died down before it started.

"The method to open the door is very simple. Just insert the Holy Key into the small hole on the door at the same time. Now I will arrange it."

After collecting all the Holy Keys, Erqi distributed four of them to Chenyang, Fu Jian, Qin Yuan and Zhu Yan.

After a while, the five of them came to the blood-colored stone door at the same time. At Erqi's order, they inserted the Holy Key into the small hole in front of them at the same time!

Suddenly, the entire stone door rumbled and trembled, and the blood-colored lines on it all burst into dazzling blood light. Then, with a few "clicks", the five holy keys were all sucked into the small holes and disappeared.

The next moment, the five small holes simultaneously shot out a sticky blood light, and they were entangled with each other like a rope, forming a huge blood-colored rune.

As soon as it took shape, the blood-colored rune suddenly sank into the stone door, causing the blood lines on it to flash and then disappear.

At this time, the two doors made a "creaking" sound, and they slowly opened inward, revealing a dark and spacious passage.

"Let's go."

Erqi's eyes flashed with excitement, and he walked into the door first.

Han Li and others did not hesitate at this moment, and walked through the door and into the hall.

Then, a friction sound came, and the two stone doors closed again.

However, the crowd did not sense any forbidden aura above, so even though the door was closed, they were not panicked at all.

Behind the palace door was a passage. Erqi led the way and soon arrived at a square.

At first, the square was pitch black, but soon, huge pearls lit up on the dome above the square, like stars in the night, illuminating the entire space.

Han Li looked up and felt that there seemed to be a Milky Way hanging above his head, as if he was standing in the wilderness at night.

The most important thing is that those pearls all exuded a strong starry aura, which made everyone very familiar.

"Are these all beast cores?"

"It is undoubtedly beast cores, and most of them are earth-level beast cores, and there are also many heaven-level beast cores!"

"Oh my God, I have never seen so many beast cores? Even the Xuancheng treasure house is not as good as this place, right?"

Everyone did not expect that they had just entered the hall and were shocked by the ruthlessness of the owner of this place.

Although there was an astonishing wealth above their heads, no one wanted to collect it at the moment. After all, judging from the situation, the real good stuff was still ahead!

The white stone square under the feet of the crowd was not very large. It was separated by a fence just a hundred feet ahead.

Outside the fence was a bottomless dark abyss. There seemed to be thick fog surging below, and gusts of cool wind blew up from time to time.

In the middle of the fence, there were three white stone arch bridges, all of which were more than ten feet wide and about a hundred feet long, leading to a huge white circular altar.

The altar was so large that it was ten thousand feet in radius, like a circular isolated peak, standing in the middle of the abyss.

Without saying a word, Erqi led everyone through the stone arch bridge in the middle and came to the altar.

As soon as they stepped onto the altar, everyone's faces changed one after another, and a touch of surprise flashed in their eyes.

It turned out that just now, they all sensed an unimaginably strong breath of flesh and blood.

Following the source of the breath, everyone discovered that the altar was not a flat stone platform, but a pentagonal deep pit with a radius of 100 feet in the center. The heart-pounding smell of flesh and blood came from it!

And on the five corners of the pentagonal deep pit, there stood a strange-looking black scaly beast stone sculpture.

Its body was like a toad, extremely fat, with wings on its back, showing a posture of spreading its wings and ready to fly, a disproportionately slender neck, and a huge lizard-like head hanging in front, looking towards the deep pit.

When everyone looked at the five black beast stone sculptures that were more than ten feet high, their first reaction was to be on guard. After all, they had seen similar scenes in the temple before, and in the end those stone sculptures would turn into puppets and attack them.

This place was obviously the core area of ​​Daxu, and no one knew how powerful the puppets would be, so everyone did not dare to step forward rashly.

However, Erqi was obviously not among them. He jumped and came to the edge of the five-cornered pit.

In the pit, there was a huge sacrificial blood pool. The huge amount of blood in it rose and fell like the tide, and the surface was covered with a thick blood mist.

Seeing that the stone sculptures did not move, everyone followed them with confidence. Soon they saw that when the blood waves surged, there were pieces of crystal-like white bones exposed from them. Some looked like the huge sharp horns of some strange beasts, and some looked like white bones.

"What a strong breath of flesh and blood. If we go down directly, we will be melted into blood and water!"

Zhu Yan couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Haha, of course it's not possible to go down directly, but as long as the right method is used, the blood and qi accumulated here for countless years can be transformed into our resources!

For us Xuan Xiu, this is the most precious opportunity in the world!"

Equan chuckled, making no secret of his desire for the power of blood in the pit.

"See those five statues? They are the five positions of the blood sacrifice formation. As long as we activate them, not only can we jointly swallow the energy and blood in the pit, but we can also suck out the bones below!"

"This city lord seems to be here for the first time, but why does he look so familiar with this place?"

When Zhu Yan heard this, he hesitated a little. He didn't know the details of the formation, so how dare he dare to activate it at will, but don't really sacrifice him.

When the others heard this, they all looked at Ewan, obviously they also had the same doubts in their hearts.

"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Zhu, I just got a stone tablet in my early years, which described the situation here.

Moreover, it takes five people to activate this formation, and I will be one of them.

As for the other four people, you four affiliated cities have all worked hard and accomplished such a good thing. Of course I will not take advantage of others.

Of course, if you want to give the opportunity to your subordinates, I have no objection. "

Ewan's attitude was very casual, without the slightest hint of coercion.

"Of course Fu trusts the city lord, so I decided to take action myself!"

Fu Jian was the first to express his stance, which caused Ebo to nod.

Qin Yuan turned his eyes but did not follow immediately, but hesitantly said:

"City Lord, can you let us check the formation so that we can activate it later so that we can be more at ease with it."

"Of course, but hurry up, people from Puppet City may come at any time."

Ewan agreed immediately without any hint of guilt.

"You need to check this, there must be something wrong!"

Han Li cursed in his heart when he heard this.

"Haha, Junior Brother Han also sees the problem?"

Luo Hong said secretly.

"I previously thought that he repeatedly prevented the four major city lords from fighting among themselves because he was worried about Puppet City.

But now it seems that he obviously knew the situation here and did that in order to have enough manpower to activate the formation.

Senior Brother Luo, you have more knowledge than me, but can you tell what kind of formation that is? "

Han Li had already concluded that activating the formation would be bad, but he didn't know what changes would happen.

"Just looking at it this way, Brother Wei can't recognize what this formation is about, but as long as we know that Ewan has ulterior motives, and combined with the violent aura of blood and water in this pit, it's not difficult to guess what he wants to do."

Luo Hong did not answer Han Li's question, but speculated.

"It was so painful for me to refine the sulfur blood cloud before. If I were to directly absorb such powerful and violent energy and blood, even with Ewan's profound Tao cultivation, I would definitely not be able to sustain it for long, so to speak."

Han Li followed Luo Hong's thoughts and soon he had a clear idea in his mind.
