In less than three breaths after the space restriction was restored, a figure blurred on the second floor of the hall. Ghost Tree's figure appeared out of thin air.
Just as he was about to go to the third floor, he suddenly frowned and glanced at the side hall on the left. A trace of doubt flashed through his eyes.
However, he immediately shook his head, withdrew his gaze, and stepped into the passage of the third floor.
At the same time, in a remote alley, a blurry light flashed, and the figures of Han Li and the others appeared.
As soon as they appeared, Han Li couldn't help but frown, and a trace of discomfort appeared on his face.
"It's just a wall, how can the difference be so big?
The air in the Luosheng District is not only turbid, but the baleful aura is also much denser than before. "Hu San wrinkled his nose and said.
"Not only that, the temperature in the Luosheng District seems to have increased a lot." Shi Chuang Kong also said.
"Fellow Bai Li, is there any news about the situation in Asura City from the Reincarnation Region?" Han Li asked Bai Li Yan.
"The Dust World is different from the Immortal World. The barriers between the various regions are very deep, and the information is also relatively isolated.
Jiuyou Region is also extremely xenophobic, so there is even less information coming out. "Bai Li Yan shook his head.
"No matter what, let's go to the border first. As long as we pass through this hurdle, we will be able to enter the Soul Cleansing Region." Han Li pondered for a moment and said.
"The layout of the Luosheng District is a bit strange. There are many strange ring-shaped buildings, but they are not marked on the map. I don't know what they are used for.
If we go to the border, we will have to pass through these buildings along the way. "Magic Light said.
"Let's not care about that. Let's be careful and pass through as soon as possible." Han Li said.
After saying that, Han Li and the others followed Magic Light to the border.
On the way, the ranks of the Spirit Slaves became denser and denser. In many fortress buildings, they could see some cultivators with cultivation comparable to the intermediate stage of True Immortal. The defense here was even tighter than the Hundred Zang District.
Han Li and the others spent a lot of effort before finally reaching the border of the Soul Cleansing Region.
"Stop, we can't go any further."
Just as they were about to use Fox Three's technique to conceal their tracks and approach, Magic Light suddenly stopped them.
"What's wrong?" Han Li and the others hurriedly stopped. They were nervous at first, then they asked.
"Look over there." Magic Light pointed forward and said.
Han Li focused his gaze on that direction and his brows furrowed tightly.
In front of them, near the city wall, there was a scarlet eyeball the size of a watermelon embedded in the ground. Further away, there was an identical eyeball on the ground at regular intervals.
What was even more terrifying was that the black city wall in the distance was also densely packed with scarlet eyes.
"Crap, there are actually so many Asura Ghost Eyes …" Bai Liyan sighed.
"Asura Ghost Eye?
Is this thing that hard to deal with? "Fox Three asked in confusion.
"This thing is a strange eye on the body of a Great Asura Demon. It has 3600 eyes on its head and can see through all kinds of illusions and transformations. I'm afraid that even your illusion techniques can't hide from it." Bai Liyan shook his head and said.
"If that's the case, we won't be able to approach the city wall quietly, and we won't be able to use the Law of Space to pass through it," Shi Chuankong said with a frown.
Just as he finished speaking, the Asura Ghost Eye that was closest to them suddenly turned and looked in their direction.
Han Li and the others immediately fell silent and retreated.
After finding a secluded place to hide, Han Li opened his mouth and was about to say something when he heard a loud "boom" coming from not far away.
The few of them thought that they had been exposed and were shocked. They hurriedly sized up the surroundings.
"Over there …" Bai Liyan pointed in a direction with a strange expression on his face.
Han Li looked in the direction that Bai Liyan was pointing and saw a nameless ring-shaped building that Magic Light had mentioned. Above it, there was a black mushroom-shaped cloud that didn't disperse for a long time.
Han Li's brows furrowed momentarily before he said, "Fellow Daoist Demonshine, come with me to gather some information. You two hide yourselves and wait here."
"I'll go with you. There seems to be something unusual over there," Bai Liyan said in a low voice.
Han Li hesitated for a moment before nodding and saying, "Alright. Then, Fellow Daoist Shi and Hu San can wait here for a while."
"Be careful," Shi Chuankong said with a serious expression.
Han Li and the other two's figures flashed and blurred in the streets. They avoided the patrolling towers and quickly arrived outside the high walls of the ring-shaped building.
When they got closer, Han Li discovered that the ring-shaped building was taller than when they had seen it from afar. The walls were engraved with complicated runes. Fortunately, these runes were used to strengthen the walls and didn't serve as a warning.
The three of them hid themselves and flashed into the building. They saw that it was quite spacious inside. In the middle of the building was a black plaza that occupied a large area. On the plaza, there were many black boulders that were dozens of feet tall. They were all riddled with holes and looked extremely dilapidated.
The boulder in front of Han Li and the other two could be considered intact. However, there was also a head-sized boulder that had been blown off. White smoke was still rising from the broken part.
While the three of them were puzzled, they suddenly heard a rumbling sound coming from the ground on the other side of the plaza. The ground split open, and it seemed that there was an underground passage.
Immediately afterward, several figures slowly walked up from below and arrived at the plaza.
These people were quite short, only half the height of an ordinary human. Their upper bodies were bare, and their skin was greenish-black and scaleless. Their faces were also quite ugly. Their ears were thin and pointed, and their sharp teeth protruded out. Their heads were bald except for a tuft of black hair at the center.
However, although he was short and stout, the muscles on his body were very bulging. His arms were abnormally thick, and they were all wrapped in cyan copper hoops. He looked quite fierce.
Han Li's brows furrowed slightly. He felt that these people were a little familiar. He seemed to have seen similar races in ancient books, but he couldn't remember where he had seen them.
"What a strong aura of Karmic Fire!" Bai Liyan looked at the crack in the ground and suddenly frowned as he muttered to himself.
"What?" Han Li's attention was focused on the short people and he didn't hear what Bai Liyan said.
At this time, the leader of the short people had the most copper bands on his arm. He looked around the plaza with a furious expression. He roared to the people behind him.
"This power is too weak. It can't be used at all. Why would the lords of the Nine Nether Tribe want it?
Go, give me the one with the most power. "
As soon as his voice fell, one of the short people behind him immediately walked forward in a trembling manner. He was holding a black ball shaped like a sweet potato in his hand.
"Elder, please go underground." After taking two steps, he stopped and turned around to speak to the leader of the group.
The leader of the short people turned around with a gloomy expression and walked down the passageway. The others hurriedly followed him.
Han Li and the others frowned and looked at the leader of the short people with confusion.
After chanting for a while, the leader of the short people suddenly raised his hand and pressed the "sweet potato" in his hand. He then tossed it toward the center of the plaza.
When Han Li saw streaks of light suddenly appear on the surface of the sweet potato, he knew that the situation was far from good. He hastily waved his hand, summoning a dark-green tortoiseshell shield in front of him.
Immediately afterward, a loud explosion sounded.
A huge ball of black flames burst out from the black sweet potato. It violently trembled and shrank before suddenly expanding into a sea of black flames that surged in all directions.
The short alien who had released the sweet potato still wanted to rush back to the underground tunnel, but as soon as he reached the entrance, he was engulfed by the huge black flames. His entire body instantly melted, turning into a pool of liquid that flowed on the ground.
The surface of the huge black stones on the plaza was rapidly corroded by the black flames. They turned into black magma-like liquid that slowly flowed down and melted.
The black boulders in front of Han Li and the others were no exception. They quickly melted under the black flames.
The tortoiseshell shield in front of the three of them resisted the black flames, but it also hissed and emitted bursts of smoke.
"Go." Han Li frowned and shouted in a low voice.
As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them immediately jumped out of the tall wall.
There were no more black stones in the plaza. Only the black flames surged and collided with the surrounding walls, letting out a series of rumbling sounds. A black mushroom cloud also rose in the sky, but it was a few times bigger than the previous one.
At the same time, all kinds of runes engraved on the plaza and the walls began to shine with a black light. Strange fluctuations spread out from the runes and collided with the black flames, slowly wearing down the black flames' imposing manner until they were completely consumed.
When Han Li and the others returned to the place where Shi Chuang Kong and the other two were hiding, Hu San immediately asked with a face full of doubt, "What happened?
Why did you cause such a big commotion?
We thought that you were exposed and were planning to go and find you. "
"The ring-shaped building over there is a training ground. It seems to be specially used to test magic treasures from the Dust World." Han Li waved his hand and said.
"Then that thing just now …" Shi Chuang Kong frowned and asked.
"If I'm not wrong, it should be an explosive magic treasure made with Karmic Fire. Its instantaneous power is not weak, and it can even pose a threat to ordinary True Immortals." Magic Light's eyes slightly narrowed as he said.
"If that's the case, those short foreign races should be the rumored Japanese race that is extremely proficient in crafting tools." Han Li said thoughtfully.
"Japanese race?
According to the ancient records, didn't these guys go extinct thousands of years ago? "Shi Chuang Kong suddenly thought of something and cried out in surprise.
"It seems that the extermination of their race is fake. The truth is that they were secretly hidden by the Nine Nether Race." Han Li shook his head and said.
"If that's the case, then the rumor is true …" Bai Li Yan's eyes suddenly flashed as he said.
"What rumor?" Hu San hurriedly asked.
"What rumor?"
