Chapter 1010

Glancing rapidly at the big-headed freak and the other two in the Yin energy, and scanning the exit at the other end of the hall, Hua Hua Tianqi's expression suddenly revealed a look of determination, and a low shout came from his mouth:

"Go!"

Then he flipped his palm, and a small green banner appeared in his hand. After shaking it slightly, a ball of emerald green radiance exploded, wrapping the four of them and transforming into a ball of green light that shot toward the entrance of the next level like a meteor chasing the moon.

"Hua Hua Tianqi, how dare you!" Seeing this scene, the big-headed freak was furious. Countless yellow sword lights as thick as a thumb exploded from his body, instantly piercing the Yin clouds trapping them into tatters, looking as if they were about to break free.

But Hua Hua Tianqi didn't dare to stay for long. With a flash of green light, he flew several dozen zhang away, plunged into the exit at the other end, and disappeared without a trace.

When the big-headed freak and the ancient demon flew to disperse the Yin energy around them, the originally empty entrance suddenly shone with bright white light, and then a thick crystal wall that was shimmering with crystal light appeared out of thin air.

This crystal wall didn't know how thick it was, actually blocking the entrance tightly, not leaking even a sliver of a gap.

The freak didn't have time to think and raised his hand to flick it. A zhang-long sword light slashed out from afar, hacking fiercely at the crystal wall. As a result, after five-colored radiance flashed, the sword light disappeared like a clay ox entering the sea.

"Sumeru Five-Element Wall!" Seeing this scene, the freak was stunned, but after looking at the crystal wall carefully for a moment, he immediately called out in surprise and anger.

"It's this treasure. Isn't this thing the town-sect treasure of the Sumeru Sect? How could it have fallen into the hands of the Poison Saint Sect. By the way, the Sumeru Sect is also one of the great sects of the Southern Border, and I heard it has quite some connection with the Poison Saint Sect. It seems they borrowed it using some method." The Ye family elder also had his expression change drastically as he said this.

"Sumeru Five-Element Wall, I've also heard of it. This treasure's fame is not small." The ancient demon frowned.

"This is troublesome. It seems there really might be that Heaven-Connecting Spirit Treasure at the bottom of this pagoda. Otherwise, how could these guys from the Poison Saint Sect risk doing such a thing." The freak stared at the crystal wall, his expression turning iron-blue.

"Brother Ye, don't be anxious! It's good that these people went down before us. Not to mention whether there is really that Heaven-Connecting Spirit Treasure on the next level, the things imprisoned on the next level are definitely more troublesome and difficult to deal with. These people running ahead of us is just asking for trouble. After we deal with this Ghost King, then break the crystal wall, perhaps we can just pick up a bargain." The ancient demon said with a cold smile.

The big-headed freak was stunned after hearing this, but after pondering for a moment, he smiled with a relaxed expression.

"Brother Han's words are correct. It was I who was too concerned about the heavy treasure and was somewhat hesitant!"

After the freak finished saying this, a cold light flashed in his eyes and landed on the ghost shadow that was being tightly entangled by that silver flying fork.

On the other side of the crystal wall, Hua Hua Tianqi and the other three elders of the Poison Saint Sect had long since appeared, but just as Hua Hua Tianqi let out a long breath, one of the elders couldn't help but complain.

"Brother Hua, isn't doing this too risky? Although the Sumeru Five-Element Wall can temporarily block the other side, we have offended the other side so much, what should we do in the future?"

"Hmph, you still fantasize that we can coexist peacefully with the Ye family? Not to mention whether we give up the treasure, this Ye Yuesheng faked his death years ago to escape the extermination of the ten great sects, and now that we have bumped into him, how could he let us leave easily? Whether we offend them or not, what's the difference? Moreover, since even the treasure that the founder of our sect never forgot is involved, do you think it's an ordinary object? It's likely that Heaven-Connecting Spirit Treasure from the rumors. For this, what's there to fear in taking a little risk?" Hua Hua Tianqi glanced at this fellow sect member who was somewhat uneasy, his expression sinking as he said this.

"Heaven-Connecting Spirit Treasure? If it really is such a heaven-defying treasure, it's worth it for us to take the risk. But that Ye Yuesheng and the others are guarding outside, even if we get the treasure, how can we escape?" Another Poison Saint Sect elder asked, still full of concerns.

"Hehe, do you fellow juniors think I would rashly do such a thing without certainty? Before coming out, I already brought the Poison Dragon Pearl of our sect with me. After getting the treasure, I can just take this pearl and endure ten years of quiet cultivation, which will be enough to deal with a Core Formation late-stage cultivator for a period of time. With this time, our escape will definitely not be a problem." Hua Hua Tianqi said with confidence.

"So that's how it is. Brother has already made preparations. In this way, it's naturally fine." The other three elders had their expressions soften. Although they were tempted by the treasure, their lives were more important.

"It's a pity Brother Yuan isn't here. Otherwise, with him joining forces with me, we could fight a late-stage cultivator, and we wouldn't need to take something as overbearing as the Poison Dragon Pearl." Hua Hua Tianqi suddenly mentioned the burly man surnamed Yuan, a look of regret appearing on his face.

"That's true. But didn't Brother Hua already leave a message? Perhaps Brother Yuan is already rushing here. If so, it might be much easier for us to get the treasure and leave." One of the Poison Saint Sect elders said with a smile.

"I hope so. Everyone should also be careful. The ghosts on this seventh level were already so difficult to deal with; I don't know what terrifying existences are on the eighth and ninth levels. Don't throw your lives away here. However, this Demon-Suppressing Pagoda is truly worthy of its name. If it weren't for the Ye family clearing the previous levels, I don't know how much effort it would have taken for us to reach this place." Hua Hua Tianqi said with a serious expression to remind them.

The other three naturally nodded repeatedly.

Then the group of people turned and walked into a passage slanting downward behind them. According to their previous experience, as long as they walked down for several dozen zhang, they would naturally be able to enter the next level.

But this time, they only walked for more than ten zhang deep when they suddenly saw a bright light before them. A square, small stone room appeared, and inside, except for one black and one white small teleportation array, the four walls were completely empty, looking as if there was nothing at all.

"This is?" Hua Hua Tianqi was stunned, then his brows furrowed tightly.

The other three elders also looked at each other.

Walking into the stone room in a few steps, Hua Hua Tianqi put his hands behind his back and scanned the surroundings, circling the two magic arrays twice.

"Junior Brother Miao, you are proficient in ancient formations, see if these two magic arrays are short-distance teleportation arrays." Hua Hua Tianqi finally turned his head and said indifferently to an old man with thick brows.

"Understood!" The thick-browed old man immediately agreed and walked to a magic array, looking at it carefully. The other two also walked over curiously.

"They are indeed short-distance teleportation arrays, and they are the kind that are very short; I estimate the distance shouldn't exceed a hundred li." After a while, the thick-browed old man raised his head and said affirmatively.

"Then that's correct. It should be the teleportation array leading to the eighth level. The eighth level actually requires using a teleportation array; it's truly somewhat unusual. The teleportation array is two-way, right?" Hua Hua Tianqi's eyes flashed with cold light, and he said carefully.

"Of course, short-distance teleportation arrays are generally two-way. But why are there two magic arrays here? Could it be that there are two eighth levels?" The thick-browed old man touched his chin and said in confusion.

"Not clear. But going on a trip will make everything clear! Let's go through this teleportation array first and see. The other one gives me a feeling that is somewhat uncomfortable." Hua Hua Tianqi pointed at the white teleportation array and strode onto it without hesitation.

The other three looked at the other black, eerie teleportation array, and also had a feeling of heart-palpitating fear, so they hurriedly walked onto the white teleportation array, calling it strange.

After Hua Hua Tianqi struck a magic formula onto the magic array, a burst of white light shone brightly, and the group of people from the Poison Saint Sect disappeared in the radiance.

But the next moment, after a dizzying spin, Hua Hua Tianqi and the others appeared in a place that looked like a fairyland.

Above were blue skies and white clouds, and all around were spiritual flowers and strange grasses. Upon taking a light breath, a thick spiritual energy rushed toward them.

But what made the people of the Poison Saint Sect dumbfounded the most was that not far directly in front of them, there was a magnificent small palace. This palace was located on top of a super-large magic array, and at the same time, it was surrounded by numerous altars, and on each altar, there was a giant stone man holding a golden giant blade, standing silently facing the palace.

And whether it was the altars or the stone men, that rough appearance exuded an indescribable wild aura, standing silently facing the palace.

Such a strange situation made even Hua Hua Tianqi unable to close his mouth for a long time.

At the same time, Han Li stood on the white jade square he had left before, looking at the group of cultivators coldly glaring at him from around the square, and suddenly felt very regretful.

Perhaps hiding in the Casting Spirit Hall and not coming out was a good choice, or coming out a moment later wouldn't have resulted in so many people suddenly appearing to welcome him.

Who told him that the moment he walked to this place, just as he wanted to pick another set of stone steps, a large group of people suddenly rushed out from the woods on both sides of the square. These people didn't walk the normal stone steps or mountain roads but lurked along both sides of the stone steps. This caused his divine sense to be greatly restricted in this place, and the moment he discovered the situation was wrong, he had already fallen into the encirclement of this group of people.

"Fellow Daoist Han, I didn't expect to meet you here. You really made this concubine search hard." A white-robed woman with an outstanding demeanor, who was facing Han Li, stared at Han Li with cold eyes, saying through gritted teeth.

This woman was none other than the Heavenly Profound Saintess Lin Lin Yinping! The others were a white-robed youth who looked somewhat familiar to Han Li, Ge Ge Tianhao, and two other black-robed old men.

These people had formed a semicircle, blocking the path down the mountain tightly, looking as if they were afraid Han Li would run down the mountain.

Han Li sighed. Thinking back to after the auction, he had once taken a jade pendant from this woman and refined it into a sensing magic tool, which was originally meant to guard against this woman. But after a few years had passed, the effect of this magic tool had long since expired; otherwise, if he had met this woman two years earlier, this kind of blunder wouldn't have happened.

"I also didn't expect to meet the Saintess in this kind of place; it's truly a pleasure. This fellow daoist is your Tu-Zu Great Immortal Master, right!" Han Li's thoughts turned like lightning, but his expression didn't change in the slightest. After bowing slightly to Lin Lin Yinping, he turned his head and said slowly to the white-robed youth.

For the current Han Li, among these people, naturally only this Core Formation late-stage Great Immortal Master had the most threat. Facing so many cultivators, he had put six or seven parts of his divine sense on this person.

"I, Xu, am indeed one of the four Great Immortal Masters of the Tu-Zu. Back then, I had seen Fellow Daoist Han's back from afar, but it's a pity the daoist wouldn't stop for a moment to spar. I wonder if Brother Han can give me some pointers now." The youth surnamed Xu had no expression, looking at Han Li who was as young as himself, saying word by word.
