As a matter of fact, the three of them had some special skills. Unfortunately, they did not have the chance to use them because they were suppressed by the force in heaven and earth.
When Lu Li controlled the space distortion, he noticed that their physical defense was strong. The twisting force stopped for the time for one breath before the three were killed.
"Xi-er, the bad guys are dead. Go and cultivate for a while. I will go to the Quicksand River first."
Lu Li said. Then, he went down the Quicksand River with the immortal's body.
The three of them had been shouting for a whole day. Who could tell if they had alerted the powerful warriors?
It was better to be careful.
While walking, Lu Li tried to sense the surroundings. All of a sudden, he noticed that someone was tailing him, hiding in the sand.
This was another one of the demon race with strong stealth skills. If it were not for the fact that Lu Li was sensitive to space, he would not have noticed it.
This demon race was almost a shadow. It moved underground without making any noise. Not even the sand and stones trembled.
"Piss off!"
Lu Li used psychic power to check on this demon race. He shouted. The demon race ran away like a frightened rabbit.
He had seen how Lu Li killed the three demons. Now that Lu Li had noticed him, the demon race would not dare to follow him anymore.
Thousands of miles later, the Quicksand River was still there. Lu Li told Blood Fairy to keep searching while he tried to sense the situation in the Quicksand River.
"Master!"
Two hours later, Blood Fairy said, "This is a natural divine formation. It doesn't have any restrictive spells or formation patterns.
But it is not powerful. I think it can only trap people, not kill them. "
Lu Li nodded. "You are right. When the sand is flowing, it is following a special pattern to form a miraculous formation.
If someone wants to go in from the sky, they will be sucked into the sand.
If I am right, once someone is sucked into the sand, the formation in the sand will change into a strong trapping formation that uses the force of the earth to trap the warrior. "
Blood Fairy replied telepathically, "My conjecture is similar to my master's. There are only two ways to cross this river.
The first is to resist the strong suction force. The second is to sneak under the sand. But to do that, you must break the trapping formation in the sand. "
"I'll give it a try!"
Lu Li took out a silver whip and said to Blood Fairy, "If the immortal's body is sucked in, find a way to crack the formation. I will figure out a way to get you out."
"Alright!"
Blood Fairy did not hesitate. To her, Lu Li's order was like an imperial edict.
Moreover, this Quicksand River was not very terrifying. Blood Fairy was confident that she could break through the formation after spending some time.
Lu Li entangled the immortal's body with the whip. The latter slowly walked toward the Quicksand River. When the immortal's body stepped on the Quicksand River, the river began to move.
A powerful suction force appeared and pulled the god's corpse downward.
"Suppress!"
Lu Li mobilized the force of heaven and earth at once to suppress the squirming sand. Under the pressure, the sand stopped moving.
Lu Li pulled forcefully and the immortal's body was pulled up.
"En!"
Lu Li nodded. "Just as I expected. The suction force of the Quicksand River is horrifying. But the sand can stop it. I think I can go through."
Lu Li was not sure about this. What if he was walking on the sand and the force of space could no longer stop him?
He would be sucked in.
"Whatever!"
Lu Li decided not to overthink. Even if he was trapped, it would only take him some time to crack the formation.
"Let's go!"
Lu Li was a resolute man. He put away the immortal's body and waved his hand. An invisible force of space pressed down. The sand stopped moving.
Lu Li kicked the ground with one leg and floated down.
"It's okay!"
Lu Li felt the sand under his feet sank a bit but there was no suction force. He was relieved and stepped forward.
One hundred feet, one thousand feet!
Lu Li sped up. He kept controlling the force of space to suppress the sand in an area with a radius of three miles.
If the sand was not squirming, the formation would not move and there would be no suction force.
Lu Li was fast. The Quicksand River was 30 miles wide but in the time for a dozen breaths, he had covered more than half of the distance.
Looking at the riverbank in the distance, Lu Li thought to himself, "Is this all the famous Quicksand River is?"
There was a saying that extreme joy begets sorrow …
Soon, Lu Li felt it. He moved forward for another three miles and was only three miles away from the riverbank. In the time for a few breaths, he would be able to cross the river.
Right at that moment, the sand in the river began to tremble. Then two skeletal hands reached out from the sand, grabbed Lu Li's legs and pulled him down forcefully.
"What is that?"
Lu Li did not feel the movement of the sand. The appearance of the two skeletal hands was so strange that he was taken aback.
But his years of fighting experience and his instinct from living on the line between life and death had saved him.
If it were someone else, his first reaction would be to cut the hands down with his weapon and take the chance to run away.
Lu Li didn't do that. The Demon Slayer in his hand glowed coldly. A gust of cold air whooshed down, slowing down the pulling speed of the skeletal hands.
At the same time, Lu Li waved his other hand and mobilized the force of space again.
When the skeletal hand stopped moving, he used the Demon Slaughtering Blade and slashed at the skeletal hand.
"Bang ~"
Sparks flew. The skeletal hands didn't break. Instead, there came a muffled sound of metal clashing as if Lu Li was hacking at cold iron.
"What is this?"
Lu Li was surprised. If these were puppets, then who was controlling the skeletal hands to attack him?
If they were not puppets, why would the skeletal hands attack him?
Lu Li could not figure it out and he had no time to think. He swung the Demon Slayer for more than a dozen times and finally got rid of the skeletal hands with the counterforce. Then he flew up.
"Move!"
Lu Li could not control the situation around him, which messed up the force of space. The skeletal hands reached out again. The two fingers were half a meter long. Lu Li wondered what kind of skeleton it was.
"Swish, swish ~"
Lu Li swung his saber. A gust of cold air spread out from the saber, which slowed down the skeletal hands again.
He dashed toward the riverbank like a sharp sword.
"Bang ~"
Along the way, huge skeletal hands reached out from the quicksand below, grabbing at him with lightning speed.
Luckily, Lu Li was prepared. Every time, he could release cold air in time to slow down the skeletal hands.
"Whoosh ~"
Finally, he reached the riverbank. Lu Li breathed in relief. He turned around and saw that the skeletal hands were gone.
However, at that moment, the sand in the middle of the riverbank suddenly surged. Then a huge skull came out. The eyes of the skull glowed in blue. It looked at Lu Li from the distance and then sank into the sand.
"Hiss, hiss ~"
