Chapter 1339
"Senior Han has eyes like torches, but this last step has trapped the junior for several hundred years, and I don't know if I can still fulfill my wish in this life." The Daoist smiled bitterly.
Han Li smiled indifferently and didn't say anything more. He raised his hand to take the red jade slip off the golden small sword, then immersed his spiritual sense into it and looked at it carefully.
The other three waited honestly on the side.
A moment later, Han Li withdrew his spiritual sense from the jade slip and spat out a place name:
"Fuli Swamp!"
"What, how could it be this place!" Hearing this place name, the green-eyed man gasped, and the Daoist and Dongguo Feng also had their faces change greatly.
"Why, is there a problem with this place?" Han Li frowned and asked slowly.
"It's not just a problem! This is the place where those alien spies are most likely to appear. Every year, fellow daoists fall there. It is a first-class dangerous place." The green-eyed man spat out a breath and said gloomily.
"Are we the only team patrolling this place?" Han Li was a bit surprised, but immediately asked again with a flicker in his eyes.
"That's not the case. The Fuli Swamp area is extremely large. Even if we walk around it without stopping, it will take half a month. Generally speaking, there will be four teams patrolling it separately." This time, the Daoist Ma opened his mouth to explain.
"Since it's not just our team's business, there's nothing to complain about. Just be more careful." Han Li raised his eyebrows and said indifferently.
"Senior Han doesn't know, two years ago, Captain Xuan Guang of the 12th team was ambushed by the Shadow Tribe in the Fuli Swamp and fell. Along with him, two other fellow daoists also died in battle. And Captain Xuan Guang was already a mid-Spirit Transformation cultivator." Dongguo Feng also said with a trace of fear.
"Mid-Spirit Transformation cultivator! There is such a thing!" Han Li was finally moved.
Just at this moment, footsteps came from the passages on both sides, and several people walked out.
Five men and one woman, two old men, a middle-aged couple, a teenager who looked fifteen or sixteen, and a burly man with a red face.
These people were clearly other team members who had been meditating in the quiet rooms, but I don't know what method they used to know about the arrival of the golden sword sound transmission, so they walked out one after another.
These people were naturally surprised to see Han Li's existence, but after an introduction by the green-eyed man, they all came over to pay respects one after another.
Han Li naturally returned the courtesy with a gentle expression.
But after a secret scan with his spiritual sense, he looked at the teenager who called himself Ying a few more times.
This person, like the Daoist Ma and the green-eyed man, was also a late-stage Nascent Soul completion cultivator.
The weakest in cultivation were the two old men who looked like Daoist immortals.
However, when these people also learned that the patrol area for the next stage was "Fuli Swamp," their faces also looked ugly.
"Alright. Being assigned to this area, we cannot change the orders from above. We can only be more careful in the next few years. We will set off tomorrow, so you all should prepare more." Han Li didn't say much more, gave a few instructions, and walked into the passage on his own.
He found a quiet room that was unoccupied and didn't come out again.
This indifferent attitude of Han Li naturally made the crowd look at each other in dismay.
Finally, their gazes all fell on the green-eyed man.
"Brother Zhuo, did you tell Senior Han about the danger of Fuli Swamp!" The teenager surnamed Ying asked.
"Naturally I told him. But Senior Han didn't seem to listen to much of it." The green-eyed man sighed.
"Even if he listened, so what. The orders were issued directly by the Elder Council, we wouldn't dare to disobey." The woman in the couple also said helplessly.
"Disobeying is naturally not an option. But at least let Senior know the danger, and be more cautious. If we really encounter those powerful aliens, at least we have to be able to deal with them independently as Green Underworld Guards." Daoist Ma twisted his long beard and also looked worried.
"Everyone don't worry too much! Although Fuli Swamp is dangerous, the Shadow Tribe people were only discovered last year, how could it be such a coincidence that we encounter other lurking aliens again. Fuli Swamp is a first-class danger zone, the rewards we get for patrolling this time are not small, and we can rest for a long time afterwards. As long as we get through these few years, I estimate that we won't be assigned to such dangerous areas again. Everyone, just prepare as Senior Han said." The green-eyed man thought for a moment and said cautiously.
Hearing this, the others had no better way, so they could only disperse helplessly.
And at this time, Han Li was sitting on the meditation cushion in the secret chamber, pinching magic seals with both hands, his body flashing with faint golden light, as if he had already entered meditation. However, at the back of his head, strands of golden light circles were flickering, appearing extremely mysterious.
One day passed in the blink of an eye.
When Han Li opened his eyes on his own and walked out of the quiet room to the hall again, he saw that the green-eyed man and others were already waiting there. Seeing Han Li come out, they stepped forward to pay respects one after another.
Han Li waved his hand, his gaze swept over, and landed on a beautiful female cultivator.
This woman was very young, in her twenties, but her face was as white as jade, almost transparent, and a pair of eyes were shining like stars.
As Han Li looked over, he felt a familiar feeling, as if he had seen her somewhere before.
A trace of surprise flashed in Han Li's eyes.
"Senior Han, this is Fairy Xu! By the way, Fairy Xu is also a descendant of the flying cultivators." Daoist Ma introduced with a smile.
"Descendant of flying cultivators!" Han Li's heart moved, but on the surface, he just nodded without changing his expression.
The female cultivator also seemed to have a cold personality, and after a faint greeting, she didn't say anything more.
"Everyone is here, let's go."
Han Li didn't hesitate, and at his order, the crowd left the stone hall and headed straight for a transmission stone hall nearby.
This stone hall was guarded by another team of cultivators. Although a Golden Court Boat was parked there, because it was only a short-distance transmission, there was no need for this spirit tool.
After Han Li submitted his identity token, the group of people stood in the transmission array in waves of three or four.
As a result, amidst sheets of white light, all eleven were transmitted out of the Heavenly Abyss City and appeared in a strange place.
After Han Li and the green-eyed man and others were transmitted out, after shaking off the slight dizziness, he swept his gaze around, and his eyebrows couldn't help but wrinkle slightly.
This was a seemingly small stone room, with a one-way transmission array under his feet, and various runes flashing on the walls all around, all covered by restrictions.
Daoist Ma and others who had been transmitted out a step earlier were all around the transmission array, waiting for them.
Han Li walked out of the transmission array unhurriedly, walked to the stone room door in a few steps, and shook the green jade pendant at the gate.
Immediately, a burst of green light shot out, and after the runes on the stone gate drifted, it slowly opened, revealing a passage a zhang wide, leading straight upwards.
Han Li didn't speak, and with a flash of green light, he took the lead and shot out, flashing a few times before disappearing without a trace.
The ten subordinates behind him immediately performed their escape arts and followed closely.
Not long after the last person left the stone room, the spiritual light on the stone gate flickered slightly, and it slowly closed again.
And Han Li had already escaped from the passage, appearing above a small mountain, revealing his figure and scanning around.
They were in a seemingly desolate hilly area. Looking back, a hundred li away, in a vast expanse of misty white light, sections of giant city walls were clearly visible. The various colored runes floating on the city walls, even from such a distance, could still see their astonishing spiritual light.
Han Li examined the city wall for a long time, his gaze flickering a few times.
According to what he knew, the giant wall facing the barbarian world of the Heavenly Abyss City had no "city gates" at all. Both humans and demons had to rely on the transmission arrays in the city to enter or exit.
In this way, with the cooperation of dense restrictions, the Heavenly Abyss City completely avoided being taken advantage of by alien tribes.
However, Han Li's patrol area was naturally not in this direction, so he turned his head to look in the other direction.
Looking over there, it was all hills, lush and green, a quiet and peaceful scene, making it impossible for anyone to see that they were already in the legendary ancient barbarian world.
But according to the map, the so-called Fuli Swamp was ten thousand li away from here. Because of the special terrain, it could shield spiritual sense scanning to a certain extent, so alien tribes often lurked there, waiting for an opportunity to monitor the movements of the Heavenly Abyss City.
The Heavenly Abyss City had to send teams of cultivators to patrol this place frequently. However, the alien tribes that could be sent to monitor the Heavenly Abyss City all had extraordinary divine abilities, especially good at concealment. Under counterattacks, the human race naturally often had people fall in the swamp because of this.
Therefore, this area of the Heavenly Abyss City, along with several other areas, was classified as a first-class dangerous area, the place that patrolling cultivators least wanted to go.
But now that Han Li's team had been assigned this area as a patrol area, they would naturally have to take great risks in the next few years.
Han Li thought silently, looked back at the group of cultivators behind him, and spat out a "go" word calmly.
More than a dozen streaks of light shot out and headed straight for the horizon.
The distance of more than ten thousand li was naturally nothing to a group of cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage. Not long after, Han Li saw his destination from afar.
A rolling green line entered his eyes.
When closer, he could see clearly that it wasn't a green line at all, but a large expanse of misty fog, within which mountains and trees could be vaguely seen.
The escape light paused slightly, and with a flip of his hand, a specially made magic disk appeared in his hand.
Han Li pointed lightly at it, and the magic disk immediately lit up with a layer of red light. At this time, the other cultivators in the escape lights behind him also took out an identical magic disk and performed the same magic art.
This thing was called the Alien Spirit Disk, a magic tool specially configured by the Heavenly Abyss City for every patrol guard, which could sense the existence of alien tribes within a certain distance.
It's just that this disk could generally only sense a certain direction, and if it encountered alien tribes with special divine abilities, it might not be very effective.
But after sacrificing this disk, it was usually much safer.
Therefore, Han Li and others took out this magic tool one after another, slowed down their escape light, and cautiously broke into the water mist.
Not long after, the group of people disappeared without a trace within it.
