Under the guidance of Merlin, along the right front, Li Yuan and the others walked among the piles of stone pillars.

This place is so desolate that when they go all the way, there is nothing but rubble all over the ground.

However, it may be because Sauron is here, so they haven't encountered a single monster along the way, and there is no vegetation here, as if this is in outer space and there is no life.

Because of this, their journey was surprisingly smooth.

After a while, they came out of the boulder forest. In front of them was a rushing underground river. And on the other side of the dark river, there is an empty clearing.

"Go down this dark river and walk three hundred meters!" Merlin's voice sounded in Li Yuan's heart.

So, Li Yuan led everyone down, walked about 300 meters, and Merlin suddenly stopped.

Li Yuan stopped, and Sauron and they stopped with Li Yuan again.

"Then go up this dark river, about two hundred meters!" Merlin commanded.

"Hey! Merlin, are you reliable or not? It's up and down again, can't you go a hundred meters and stop? Li Yuan questioned.

"Hmm......" Merlin was silent for a while, dragging his chin, but said comfortably: "Don't ask, just follow me!" ”

"Two hundred meters up!" Hearing this, Li Yuan was also helpless, so he could only say this to Sauron.

"Huh? Why go down and go up? Wu Yun held his head in his hands and asked curiously.

Don't ask me, I don't know...... Li Yuan's heart was secretly slandered.

But while he pondered how to explain it, Sauron seemed to have an understanding:

"Oh! It seems that Huo Siqi has been watching here through your field of vision! I think she must have discovered something, because cracking some magic arrays can feel inexplicable, probably related to the path of magic work. ”

Well, Mrs. Hoskey, I didn't say anything...... Li Yuan twitched the corners of his mouth, but he didn't explain much, anyway, these words were not what he said.

Just listening to Sauron say this, he was a little curious, what kind of character is that beautiful 'sister' who is suspected of crossing over, no, sure to cross over, and loves to wear cheongsam.

According to Sauron's attitude, she seems to be a person of equal strength to him......

I just live under the same roof with a real punch-plane, kick-tank master...... Li Yuan shuddered suddenly. Then, the scene of him renting a house at that time inexplicably came to his mind.

If she really wants to do something to me, I should, well, there's no way to resist, right?

So what am I going to do, is it possible......

Just as he was thinking about it, they had reached about two hundred meters when Merlin suddenly stopped and pulled Li Yuan out of his imagination.

"It's time for me to call Sesame to open the door?" Li Yuan asked with a drooping face.

"No, you let Sauron slash a sword in front of you!" Merlin said.

So, Li Yuan transferred Merlin's words to Sauron. And in Sauron's imagination, it was what Huo Siqi said to him, and he couldn't help but blush, and clenched the giant sword in his hand like a show off.

On his body, red light rose, forming a brilliant band of light.

Hey, hey! Is there such a mechanism in the Tian Yuan Continent? Seeing the 'qi' rising from Sauron's body, Li Yuan couldn't help but widen his eyes.

And this scene, in Sauron's eyes, is more like Huo Siqi was shocked by his domineering performance through Li Yuan.

For this reason, Sauron had planned an offensive, but instead of cutting it out directly, he roared loudly, forcing his momentum to climb steadily.

At this moment, the fiery red color 'qi' instantly turned from the original ethereal feeling to manic, like a blood-red sword, straight into the sky.

The wind erupted from Sauron's body, spreading out in circles like ripples, causing the rubble on the ground to tremble, and the surging underground river was also splashing with white foam.

"Holy!" …… Isn't that handsome? Li Yuan was shocked and burst into a foul mouth.

Not to mention him, whether it was Lin Xiaoxin or Lin Yinyin, and Taro Sakamoto, they were all shocked by this scene and speechless.

As for Wu Yun, a loyal little fan of Sauron, he has grown his mouth, his eyes are shining, and there seem to be little stars flashing in it.

At this time, he was pulled by Sauron's breath. In front of Li Yuan and them, the space slowly distorted, and a mist was hazy.

The point where Li Yuan and the others had stood when they had just arrived, as well as the point they had arrived at after walking three hundred meters before, and on the point where they were standing at this time, a gray-white mist was emitted, quickly enveloping the scene in front of them.

The space distorts more and more there.

"Drink!" With a loud shout, Sauron finally slashed the sword.

The crimson light was dazzling, like a meteor, and it slashed straight down.

The tremendous force swirled the air current, so much so that the gray-white mist erupted and swirled, forming an enchantment that competed with the red sword.

Zizi!

Between the two confrontations, there is a faint arc runout.

The powerful qi wave swept over in waves, blowing so much that Li Yuan couldn't help but raise his hand and block it in front of his eyes.

At the same time, he was yelling at Merlin in his heart: "Merlin! You asked me to investigate an opponent of this level, do you really want to play me to death? ”

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect things to come to this point!" Merlin smiled and raised his hands in surrender.

"What are you so ......" Li Yuan saw him like this, and he didn't know how to scold if he wanted to.

After a long silence, he finally asked, "What is the situation?" Is it convenient to say? ”

Although Merlin cheated a little, Li Yuan was not worried that he was deliberately harming him, after all, if he really had intentions, he could have done it early.

"Hmm...... Originally, I thought that this should be the little hands and feet laid by the 'spirit'. Merlin muttered and explained, "It's like a mental consciousness, or a split soul...... You can understand this, right? ”

"Understood!" At the beginning, Li Yuan had read a lot of novels, especially the novels of the Great Neon Kingdom, and there were actually a lot of explanations about this kind of thing, so Li Yuan was thorough at all.

"But if that's the case, the 'spirit' must also follow the rules." Merlin continued: "Because this is the beginning of the 'founding' of this world, I gave up my body, entered this world with my soul, and after taking the lead, I desperately forbade it! ”

Speaking of this, Li Yuan's heart suddenly shook.

"And one of the prohibitions is that on the island where the novice village is located, the upper limit of strength does not exceed level 10!"

"The maximum strength is not more than level 10?" Li Yuan was a little puzzled and said, "What about Sauron?" ”

"I'm referring to the power that was born from the novice village and was born and raised, and Sauron is foreign, so naturally there are no restrictions." Merlin replied.

"Then listen to this meaning, you mean that the owner here is also foreign?" Li Yuan frowned.

"Well, but this foreign force can't belong to the 'spirit' that competes with me. After the battle with me, he had fallen into a deep sleep, unable to make conscious movements for the time being, except for instinct. Merlin explained.

"Uh, is it okay for you to tell me so much now?" Listening to what Merlin said this time, the amount of information was much more than before, Li Yuan trembled inexplicably, for fear that the 'spirit' would detect something, and rely on instinct to give him a lightning bolt.

Then he really didn't have time to cry.

"The momentum created by Sauron is enough for me to blind the perception of the 'spirit'." Merlin smiled confidently, and then continued the topic, his face a little solemn:

"Therefore, I suspect that in addition to the 'spirit' itself, there are other 'spirits' that have entered the Tian Yuan Continent and lurked in advance!"

"What are they doing here, to control all of humanity?" Li Yuan asked.

"That's certainly their purpose, but it's not the only purpose, I don't know." Merlin shook his head.

"Is there a problem with Sauron?" Thinking that their opponent might be the kind of 'spirit' that seemed to be ethereal, Li Yuan couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"No, don't worry, those 'spirits' have entered this world, and their abilities and powers will have a clear understanding for us." A smile appeared on the corner of Merlin's mouth: "This is also the main reason why I quietly let Sauron and their group enter the Tian Yuan Continent to prepare." ”

"Only in this way can we humans gain the power to oppose the 'spirit'." Merlin's tone suddenly became serious. In the dreamlike world of flowers, suddenly a wind rose, and flower petals flew all over the sky, only to hear Merlin solemnly say: "Because only the 'spirit' can fight the 'spirit'!" ”

The scenes in Li Yuan's mind were all gone. What caught his eye was a red glow that almost obscured one's view.

At this moment, with Sauron's roar, the red light overcame the distorted space and suddenly slashed down. The crimson light bloomed like an epiphany, so much so that in human perception, it turned into white light, engulfing everything in front of everyone's eyes.

Can only the 'spirit' fight the 'spirit'...... Li Yuan's heart still came to mind the last words that Merlin said.

The next moment, the light suddenly disappeared, and Li Yuan's eyes returned to clarity.

The first thing that caught their eyes was as if a large curtain had been torn apart.

Behind the curtain is an eerie and gray world.

Sparse dead trees, cloudless but dark skies, and empty dark gray earth, are lined with crumbling tombstones. In the whole world, there is a strange coldness.

Woo! Suddenly, a gloomy wind blew.

Li Yuan and the others looked up, and in front of their gaze, under the bleak and cold white moonlight, where the gray mist was shrouded, stood the black shadow of a huge ancient castle.

Seeing such a scene, Sauron let out a long breath, wiped the sweat between his forehead, and then put the giant sword into the sword box behind his back, took a step forward, stepped into the gloomy world, and said indifferently: "Let's go, the master here has already sent us an invitation." ”
