Chapter 112: Clues (Asking for Monthly Pass Recommendation Tickets)
(2nd Update)
"It seems that all of these people have low-level minor cultivators, or people with spiritual roots!" Jiao Sixteen said suddenly when he heard this.
"If that's the case, then you mean, we also pretend to be low-level monks and be teleported in by them?" Jiao Jiu said.
"Yes, after all, with our cultivation, there is no problem if you want to hide from the world. Han Li replied.
"The place where it was teleported may be related to Gong Yihong, do we want to inform Jiao Ba of them?" Jiao Sixteen hesitated slightly.
"We're just trying to sneak in, and we'll talk about it when we find out. Jiao Jiu replied in a somewhat indifferent tone.
With that, he raised his hand and touched his cheek and forehead lightly, and an invisible wave immediately rippled from his body.
Although his transfiguration face did not change at all, the aura on his body changed rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it reached the level of the middle stage of foundation building.
Seeing this, Han Li and the others also concocted the same method, and successively adjusted their aura to the foundation building stage.
Then the three of them stared slightly, waiting for the red light to rise from under their feet.
However, after half an hour, red pillars of light continued to light up around them, but none of them were under their feet.
"Why didn't you teleport? Could it be that you misjudged, this 'Heavenly Selection' was just random?" Jiao Jiu looked hesitant, and couldn't help but ask.
"Don't worry, just wait. If the 'Jiazi Heavenly Selection' is over, and we can't be teleported away, let's use the Divine Mind to probe in a small area. Han Li thought for a moment and replied.
After hearing this, Jiao Jiu didn't say anything, just looked around cautiously.
At this moment, a light suddenly lit up under his feet, and a red light suddenly rose, enveloping him, and the eyes of the people around him also looked at him instantly.
Before he could react, the light disappeared in an instant, and his figure disappeared.
In the surrounding crowd, there was a sudden sound of discussion and admiration, and the mouth was full of words of envy and regret.
However, before their voices fell, two more red lights suddenly lit up around them, and in a flash, they took the two of them away from their places again.
These two people were naturally Han Li and Jiao Fifteen.
Han Li only felt the light and shadow around him spin for a while, and his body involuntarily shook in the void before falling back to the ground.
He looked around and found that there were still countless people crowded around him, Jiao Sixteen was standing not far from him with a puzzled expression, and Jiao Jiu's figure couldn't be seen for a while.
At this time, they were in a huge and vast underground palace, full of people on all sides, and they couldn't see the walls of the underground palace at all, only the roof above their heads and the thick stone pillars standing nearby.
There were huge braziers hanging from them, and I don't know what was burning inside, and there was not a single smoke rising, only the red flames kept moving.
At the same time, there was a constant red light around him, and one after another mortals and low-level monks were sent here.
Compared to the solemn atmosphere in the square, it was a little more noisy, and all the people who were teleported here looked a little uncontrollable excitement, shrugged their shoulders, and stood on tiptoe to look around.
Except for a few Foundation Building Stage and Qi Cultivation Stage cultivators around Han Li, there were more mortals, and they felt like a miracle for being suddenly teleported here before, and they even reverently chanted prayers in low voices.
All kinds of sounds merged with each other, and they continued to reverberate throughout the underground palace, "buzzing" non-stop.
Listening to these sounds, Han Li felt a slight sense of depression in his heart for some reason.
However, this feeling did not last long, and it quickly disappeared, and in the somewhat turbid air around it, a faint smell of blood lingered, but it always lingered.
He wrinkled his nose slightly, looked down at his feet, and found that the bluestone slabs on the ground were all showing a slightly blackened dark red color, which looked like they had been infected with blood for many years.
Seeing this, Han Li's mind couldn't help but think of the Yin soil found under the stone slabs of the underground palace of Red Moon City in Lanzhou, and his brows couldn't help but wrinkle.
At this time, Jiao Sixteen squeezed through the crowd with difficulty, and when he reached his side, he asked in a low voice:
"How's it going, but what did you find?"
"There seem to be some clues, but we can't be sure yet, let's find Jiaojiu Daoyou first. Han Li shook his head and said.
After that, he sent a message to Jiao Jiu and asked where he was.
After some interrogation, they learned that Jiao Jiu's location where he was teleported was still some distance away from them, near the center of the underground palace.
So, in the noise of the crowd, the two of them quietly moved towards the center, which naturally attracted complaints and reprimands all the way.
The closer he got to the center of the dungeon, the more intense the bloody aura he could smell, and the thicker the color of the floor beneath his feet.
When they came to the center of the dungeon, the color on the stone slab on the ground had become almost purple and black.
As soon as Han Li looked up, he saw a statue more than three feet tall standing in front of him, it was none other than the Lord of the Red Moon Island.
And near the statue, there was a stone platform with a radius of ten zhang, slightly higher than the ground, and it was empty, except for a short man with a small stature but a strong physique.
It wears a purple robe, and a blood moon is also embroidered on its chest.
I saw that his eyes were half-closed, covering most of the light in his eyes, and his whole body was calm and restrained, and he was actually a scattered immortal who did not show any mountain dew.
Han Li and the others walked to the edge of the empty area, and they also stopped, and after their eyes lingered on the scattered immortal for a moment, they looked behind the statue.
I saw that among the crowd there, there was also a person who squeezed forward slightly, revealing half of his body, which was Jiaojiu.
Naturally, he also saw Han Li and the others, and when he was about to move over to this side, he saw that the Scattered Immortal suddenly raised his head and glanced left and right.
After a moment, the dwarf withdrew his gaze, looked straight ahead, and spoke:
"Ladies and gentlemen......"
Together, all the noise around him stopped abruptly, and the entire dungeon suddenly became extremely quiet, and everyone's eyes were on this person.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little solemn.
Seeing this, Jiao Jiu also stopped, and also looked at the scattered immortal.
"The Ceremony of the Chosen One has ended, and all of you present have been blessed with the Lord's favor for your sincere faith in the Holy Lord, in order to attain this supreme glory. The stout man said loudly.
When everyone heard this, they were immediately overjoyed and couldn't help cheering.
Han Li glanced around, and found that inside the dungeon, sure enough, there was no longer a red light, and no one was teleported inside.
The dwarf man raised his hands and pressed them in front of him a few times, and the cheers gradually faded away, and the dungeon was quiet again.
I heard him speak again:
"The Holy Lord is benevolent, willing to open the immortal gate, and decided to select people with extraordinary talents and deep immortal fate from among you, teach the secret method of cultivating immortals, and stay by his side. You need to pray earnestly for the coming of the Lord. ”
When the people in the temple heard this, they put their hands together in front of them, closed their eyes tightly, and immediately made a gesture of prayer.
After hearing this, Jiao Sixteen immediately showed a hint of joy on his face, and transmitted a message to Han Li and the others:
"Two fellow Daoists, since we have learned that Gong Yihong is coming here, should we immediately notify the three major Jiao people?"
Hearing this, Han Li's gaze stared slightly at Jiao Jiu opposite, only to see that the other party had a deep groan on his face.
At this moment, the statue in the center of the underground palace suddenly trembled, and two blood-red lights lit up in his eyes.
Seeing this, Han Li and the others also cast their eyes towards the statue.
"Welcome to the coming of the Holy Lord. ”
The sturdy man turned around, bowed down to the statue, and said with great respect.
Seeing this, everyone immediately followed his movements, bent down and bowed deeply, and also recited in their mouths: "Welcome to the Holy Lord." ”
Han Li also bent down slightly, but his eyes were looking at the statue and the dwarf man who was not good-looking.
I saw the man's hands pinching in front of him, and his lips kept squirming, as if he was silently chanting something.
The blood-red light in the eyes of the statue behind him suddenly flashed, and it turned into two pillars of red light and projected forward.
"Click"
As the statue slowly turned, the two pillars of blood-red light continued to sweep through the crowd.
As it swept over Han Li's body, he distinctly felt a wave of divine consciousness lingering on him for a moment, then turned to the side again.
To his strange part, the source of that divine consciousness did not seem to be the statue, but the purple-robed dwarf.
At this moment, Jiao Jiu's voice sounded in Han Li's heart:
"What the hell is this person doing, where is the Holy Lord coming? It's clear that he is just releasing his divine sense!"
"It seems that he is just performing a ritual in the name of that Holy Lord, and I am afraid that Gong Yihong will not come here. Han Li pondered for a moment and replied.
As soon as his words fell, two pillars of red light that swept through the crowd stopped and landed on the two young men.
The two of them suddenly showed surprise on their faces, and hurriedly moved towards the center under the summons of the scattered immortal, attracting countless envious glances along the way.
Han Li glanced at the two of them, looked at them for a moment, and immediately found that although these two people were only cultivating in the foundation building stage, they seemed to have good spiritual root attributes and root bones.
Immediately afterward, the two rays of light roamed through the crowd again.
A moment later, it stopped at a thin boy and a delicate girl.
Han Li took a look and found that although these two people were not monks, their cultivation qualifications were excellent.
After that, as the red pillar of light continued to move and stop, one after another boys and girls were chosen.
All of them, under the guidance of the scattered immortal, moved towards the high platform in the center of the statue.
In a short time, more than 200 people were gathered there.
From Han Li's point of view, if they didn't look at the level of cultivation and only the cultivation qualifications, they were all the best among the tens of thousands of people in this underground palace.
Seeing this, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his heart, and he strung together many previous things, as if he had figured out what the key was, and hurriedly transmitted the message to Jiao Jiu and the others:
"Two fellow Daoists, I'm afraid things are a little bad. I am afraid that this place is not a place to meet the Holy Lord, but a place of blood sacrifice on Red Moon Island. ”
"What?" Jiao Jiu was shocked when he heard this.
"Jiao Fifteen, did you find any clues, what is going on?" Jiao Fifteen also looked at Han Li with a puzzled expression.
