"Buzzing ~"
After he rushed through the gate, Lu Li felt a white glare in front of him. He was not in a hall, but in the middle of a desert.
He looked up and saw that the sky was dim. This must be a unique space created by Master of Ghost.
The Hall of Ghost was not a palace, but a small world.
"I don't sense any danger!"
Lu Li looked around. It was peaceful, with verdant hills and clear waters. It was more like a land of peach blossoms.
Of course, he was not an idiot. This place must be dangerous. Otherwise, why didn't anyone leave when so many people had come in?
Lu Li did not move around. After making sure that there was no danger, he sat down on the ground with his legs crossed.
He took out his Interspatial Ring and poured in divine energy, trying to open the seal.
The Wicked Bead was in the Interspatial Ring, the immortal's body was in the Wicked Bead, and the Wrath of Thunder was in the ring. Those were his trump cards to save his life.
After a while, Lu Li focused on the Interspatial Ring to sense the situation inside.
After the time for one incense stick to burn, Lu Li relaxed a bit. The Interspatial Ring was surrounded by some strange energy that weakened the spiritual connection between him and the Interspatial Ring. As a result, he could not use the Interspatial Ring.
"Blood Fairy, break the seal!"
Lu Li shouted to himself after some thoughts. A blood-red tentacle shadow reached out from the Wicked Bead in the Interspatial Ring. The tentacle reached into the ground of the Interspatial Ring and began to crack the seals on the Interspatial Ring.
"Buzzing ~"
Blood Fairy did not disappoint Lu Li. In an hour, the Interspatial Ring glowed. Lu Li took out the Wicked Bead with Little White and the immortal's body.
"Squeak, squeak ~"
Little White hopped onto Lu Li's shoulder happily. Little White liked to stand on Lu Li's shoulder and scratch Lu Li's neck with its paws.
"Alright, Little White, stop it!"
Patting Little White's head, Lu Li said, "This place is dangerous. You have to go into the Wicked Bead first. When it is safe, I will let you out."
"Squeak, squeak ~"
Little White screamed, feeling wronged. Lu Li ignored it. He threw Little White into the Wicked Bead and took out some Cloud Crystals for Little White to eat.
"Blood Fairy, lead the way!"
Lu Li waved his hand and used the Cloaking Armor himself.
It was better to be safe than sorry. So many people had died. Lu Li had to be careful.
The god corpse's defense was astonishing, so it was the best choice for him to lead the way.
Under Lu Li's guidance, Blood Fairy walked forward slowly. Lu Li followed the immortal's body and even followed the path the immortal's body took. He did not dare to take any other paths.
Thirty miles later, a huge mountain appeared in front of them, blocking their way. Making sure that there was no danger, Lu Li asked the immortal's body to lead the way.
There was almost no path in this mountain. It was full of lush woods and thorns. For Lu Li and the immortal's body, it was not a problem.
The immortal's body smashed around like a cannonball. Lu Li leaped up high. He could keep flying by tapping on the leaves or thorns.
"Master, there's a situation!"
The immortal's body was the first to fly to the peak. Once he was there, he stopped moving. Blood Fairy sent a message to Lu Li at once.
Lu Li followed him and stood next to the immortal's body. He looked ahead and was soon taken aback.
Bones!
In front of them was a boundless plain. Lu Li could see at least thousands of skeletons on the plain. Many of the skeletons were smashed.
The light here was already dim, and seeing so many white bones, it gave off an even more terrifying feeling, making one's hair stand on end.
"How did these people die?"
Lu Li took a few looks. He was even more worried. There was no sign of a battle around the skeletons.
Immortals could be destructive. For example, the mountain Lu Li was standing on could be leveled if the immortal wanted to.
So many immortals had died. Before they died, there must have been a battle.
Many skeletons were destroyed. On the ground, Lu Li could see some separated bones of hands and feet, which meant that many bodies were smashed.
If the bones were smashed, then there should have been a battle. Why was there no sign of a battle?
Lu Li stood there for an hour and still could not figure it out. He waved his hand and said, "Take a detour. Let's go around the front!"
Since he did not know where the danger came from, the safest way was to go around the dangerous area and find a place where there were no skeletons to cross.
Lu Li asked the immortal's body to lead the way. He ran along the mountain to the left, trying to go around the plain.
The mountain was long. Lu Li had been following the immortal's body for the time for one incense stick to burn and they still had not reached the end.
"Something is not right."
Lu Li gazed into the plain. What he saw were still skeletons. Something was not right.
The time for one incense stick to burn was enough for him to cover a long distance. Even though he was not at his best, he should be able to cover a distance of several thousand miles.
Why were there so many skeletons?
"Something is not right —"
Lu Li fixed his eyes on a skeleton. The ribs of that skeleton were smashed and there was a big hole.
He had seen this skeleton before. Why was it still ahead?
"Formation of illusion?"
Lu Li blinked. He waved his hand to let the immortal's body move on. He stared at the plain ahead, trying to see if the scenery would change when he moved on.
As he had expected …
After the time for one incense stick to burn, Lu Li forced a smile. Thousands of miles later, the scenery had changed. But the skeletons were still there.
The skeleton with the broken ribs had been lying there quietly thirty miles ahead of him.
The view of the mountain had changed, and so had the plain. The only thing that remained unchanged was the skeletons.
Lu Li could not figure out why. The only possibility was — there was a powerful formation of illusion here. No matter where he went, he had to pass through the area where the skeletons were or else he would be trapped here for the rest of his life.
"I will rest for an hour and then try again!"
Lu Li made up his mind. He could not stay here forever. What about the Massacre Shrine?
What about Chi Xi-er?
What about Lu Ling?
What about the Earth Imperial Universe?
The Xuan energy here was thin. Cultivating here was too slow. He must figure out a way out or … die here.
"Let's go!"
After an hour of rest, Lu Li had adjusted his state of mind to the peak. He waved his hand to let the immortal's body lead the way down the mountain.
Even though he knew that the road ahead was a sea of flames and blades, he must take the risk.
If a warrior lost the courage to face death, then he would never be able to move forward and live a mediocre life forever.
Going down the mountain was easy. He did not run into any danger. Lu Li did not move after he entered the plain. He waved his hand and said, "Blood Fairy, go and explore the way. Be slow. Come back at once if anything goes wrong!"
The death of the one ahead was too strange. Lu Li had to be on guard.
The immortal's body moved forward slowly. Lu Li used psychic power to sense everything around him.
One thousand feet, one mile, two miles!
What happened next shocked Lu Li. The immortal's body kept moving forward and nothing happened.
At the moment, the immortal's body had reached the two skeletons. The danger that Lu Li expected did not come.
"Are the skeletons illusions? Is there no danger here?"
Lu Li could not figure it out. He stood there for the time for one incense stick to burn. Then, he made up his mind and walked toward the immortal's body.
"Swish, swish ~"
This time, Lu Li was wrong. When he was more than 9000 feet away, something unexpected happened —
Above the plain, the clouds and clouds were stirred. A ray of crimson light shone down, dyeing the entire plain red …
