On this day, Lu Li suddenly heard a movement from the jungle behind him, and quickly stopped practicing and stood up.
Immediately afterwards, there were several sounds of piercing the air, and then, figures flew out of the red maple forest and landed not far from Lu Li.
The visitors were none other than Fa Xin and others, but what was puzzling was that there were nine people who entered the red maple forest with Fa Xin, but now only four people arrived here.
They are Fa Xin, Gu Xiangrong, Dong Jinyuan, and the casual cultivator named Gongsun Chu. The four of them are at the lowest and late entry-level cultivation level, and they are considered the strongest among the nine before.
Seeing that Lu Li had arrived here so early, the four of them couldn't hide their surprise.
Gu Xiangrong walked towards Lu Li in surprise, "Brother, when did you come? Why haven't we seen you before?"
Lu Li chuckled and said, "To be honest, brother, I encountered a crack in the ground in the jungle to the east. I walked down it and walked through it for a long time before I successfully walked out. But I never thought that when I reappeared, I would already be in the red maple forest. ..."
Lu Li told half-truths and half-truths about what happened to him, and after hearing this, several people's faces suddenly showed expressions of astonishment.
At this time, Dong Jinyuan, the second elder of Mingxin Sword Palace, suddenly raised his eyebrows and said meaningfully: "Fellow Taoist, we haven't found even a hair along the way. Could it be that you took away all the opportunities? You Isn’t this a bit excessive?”
Not only did they narrowly escape death along the way, but they didn't even get a single chance. They were really upset to the extreme.
If they weren't curious about what the end of this secret realm looked like, they would have just retreated like everyone else.
"What this fellow Taoist said is wrong. To be honest with you, I have encountered nothing but crises along the way..." Lu Li glanced at Dong Jinyuan and said calmly.
"Hmph! Who knows whether what you said is true or false." Dong Jinyuan sneered, "Unless you open the storage space and let us check..."
Hearing this, Lu Li immediately laughed angrily: "Checking my storage space? You are taking yourself too seriously!"
Dong Jinyuan's face suddenly darkened, and he said grimly: "Boy! Are you looking down on me?"
"Okay! Old man Dong, it's almost done. After all, you are also a dignified sword palace elder. Every word and deed represents the face of the six major sects. You are shameless, and we still want shame!" Gu Xiangrong frowned and looked at Dong Jinyuan with an unhappy expression. road.
"Amitabha, what Elder Gu said is absolutely true. Regardless of whether what this little friend said is true or not, even if he really took away the opportunity, he should get what he deserves. As one of the leaders of the righteous path, Elder Dong should still be tolerant. A few would be nice.”
At this time, Fa Xin suddenly recited a Buddhist name and began to persuade Dong Jinyuan.
Dong Jinyuan snorted coldly when he heard this, then turned his head and stopped talking.
Fa Xin's words seemed to be speaking for Lu Li.
But when Lu Li heard it, he always felt that something was wrong. What do you mean, even if I took away the opportunity? At a small level, it is just an unintentional statement. At a large level, it is a deliberate frame-up and evil plot.
He could clearly see that the expression of the old man in cloud robe who had been silent had changed after hearing this.
Suddenly, he was secretly wary of this seemingly upright old monk.
"Hey, look, what is that!"
At this moment, Gu Xiangrong suddenly pointed to the corner of the altar exposed in the gap between the earth bags in the distance, and said with a surprised look on his face.
Hearing this, Fa Xin and the other two people immediately looked over there. After one glance, all three of them flashed in unison and flew towards the altar.
Lu Li looked at a few people calmly, and then walked over slowly.
The four of them looked around the altar, and finally looked at Lu Li who was slowly approaching. Gu Xiangrong asked curiously: "Brother, I think this earth color is quite fresh. Could it be that you dug up this altar?" Of?"
Lu Li nodded: "Before, this altar was buried in the soil, and only one corner was exposed. I opened it out of curiosity and found that it was an altar. However, this barrier is ridiculously strong. I tried my best to get it. Couldn't break even a single bit."
Hearing this, Fa Xin and the others suddenly had different expressions, and some were ready to make a move.
Afterwards, several people discussed it for a while, and like Lu Li, they began to test each other in turn. But what shocked a few people was that even though they had used many methods, the barrier remained unchanged.
Except for Lu Li and Gu Xiangrong, the other three people here are following the path of gold. They are the most adept at attacking. Unexpectedly, they can't damage this barrier at all.
Finally, the four of them joined forces to strike hard, pressing down hard on the barrier.
This time, it finally had some effect and directly dispersed the fire cloud, but the residual power that fell on the barrier was pitifully small and was not enough to shake the barrier.
"By the way, brother, don't you follow the path of water? Water defeats fire. Is there any way you can weaken the power of the fire cloud?" Suddenly, Gu Xiangrong's expression changed, he looked at Lu Li and asked.
"This fellow Taoist actually cultivates the water element?"
Fa Xin couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he heard this: "If we can weaken this fire cloud a little, and then the four of us join forces, maybe there is hope..."
Dong Jinyuan and Gongsun Chu also looked at Lu Li, but did not speak.
Lu Li thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "I can give it a try, but I'm not sure how effective it will be."
"Okay! Then it's up to you, brother!"
Gu Xiangrong looked happy and immediately flew into the air.
When the other three people saw this, they also jumped into the air, and they were located in the four directions of the altar.
Following Fa Xin's order, the four of them took action together again. Three powerful golden swords, plus a fire sword, packed with overwhelming pressure, suddenly forced towards the altar boundary from four directions.
Suddenly, the wind surged and the space around the altar was slightly distorted.
Immediately afterwards, the runes around the altar lit up, and a fire cloud two or three miles in size flew out from the well mouth and actively faced the four swords.
"Water ban!"
However, before the fire cloud could fully contact the four swords, Lu Li pointed at them, and countless aqua-blue tentacles rolled down, directly wrapping the giant fire cloud in it.
And just like that, the originally powerful fire cloud suddenly withered like an eggplant beaten by frost. The light dimmed.
Fa Xin and others were surprised and happy, and they all shouted: "Jiu!"
In an instant, four swords whizzed down. This time, it was easy and almost without any hindrance. The four swords passed through the fire cloud.
Only a few pops and explosions were heard, and the barrier below was stabbed and exploded. Then another gust of wind blew past, and the fire cloud in the sky disappeared.
"good!"
Dong Jinyuan looked happy when he saw this, and then he rushed into the altar impatiently.
Fa Xin and others frowned and prepared to follow closely.
But unexpectedly, before they could move, there was a muffled sound from below, and then Dong Jinyuan was seen flying upside down from below like a sandbag...
