Chapter 919: Into Danger
Taking advantage of the fact that the sand and dust had fallen, Han Li could see at a glance the place on the other side of the mountain pass that had been buried by rocks, and a black-scaled elephant puppet was tilting its head up, holding its trunk and pointing high into the air.
At its elephant's nose and mouth, there was a white light afterglow slowly falling, and the power of the stars emitted from it fluctuated, but it was endless.
Han Li couldn't help but sigh that this kind of black-scaled elephant that had been transformed and refined into a puppet was far stronger than he could have imagined.
It seems that although the people of the puppet city are no match with the Xuancheng side in terms of physical cultivation, they have a deep attainment in puppetry, so they can survive in such a harsh environment as the Scales Void for so many years, and fight against each other in the Xuancheng Division.
This scene fell in the eyes of everyone in Xuancheng, and everyone had different faces.
Naturally, the city lords such as Eryu and Chenyang did not show anything, and the rest of the people were in a commotion, some of them were shocked, and some of them were scolding, thinking that the puppet city did it on purpose.
Before everyone in Xuancheng was surprised, there was a "click", and the roof of the stone hall on the back of another black-scaled elephant in front of him suddenly opened, and a huge explosion sounded above the sky.
"Whoosh"
I saw a black light light up, and a spear the thickness of an adult's arm suddenly burst out, and in a flash, it caught up with the two-headed falcon that had already flown away, and directly penetrated into the abdomen.
"Whew......"
The two-headed scaly falcon let out a long roar from its mouth, and its body just fell downward, and then it flapped its wings again, waving its wings, and speeding away into the distance.
However, as soon as he flew out of a distance of more than 1,000 zhang, the white light in his body suddenly soared, and it burst directly into the air.
Obviously, the spear that had been shot into its body before was embedded with the star bones of the Exploding Scale Beast.
The aftermath of this episode passed quickly, and the team of the puppet city marched forward again, and the people of Xuancheng also harnessed the scale beast and chased after it.
......
Half a year later.
On a desolate black stone Gobi, the wind swept and the cry shook the sky.
The sand in the sky obscured the sun, and it was noon, but the sky and the earth were as dark as night.
On the earth, there was a constant rumbling sound, and countless large rocks were swept around by the wind, making bursts of collision sounds.
On the flat and uncovered earth, the two teams were a hundred feet apart, and all the scale beasts gathered together with their heads inward and tails facing outward, each forming two large circular circles, resisting the wind and sand and flying stones raging between heaven and earth.
The stone roof on the back of one of the scaly beasts made a "bang", and with a sudden shake, a large roof stone slab spun up, which was directly lifted by the wind and flew away like a kite.
Immediately after, a tall figure stomped on the ground with both feet, and the figure suddenly swept up from the open roof, and rushed into the dust.
The mysteries on his legs suddenly shone brightly, and the whole person stepped into the air, chasing the stone slab with the wind.
But after a dozen breaths, the figure held the black stone slab in both hands, and stepped on the void and flying stones on its toes, and returned to its place, covering the huge roof slab back into its place.
After the roof closed again, the man stood inside the room and slowly pulled down the placket covering his face, revealing an ordinary cheek, which was none other than Han Li.
He glanced at the room with a wry smile, and saw that it was not more than ten breaths, and a thick layer of sand and dust had accumulated under the feet of the room, and the stone table in the middle of the room was also smashed in half by a flying stone.
"This black sand storm has been going on for more than two months, and I don't know when it will be the first ......" Han Li sighed, raised his hand and waved his sleeves, swept the sand and dust off the stone bed, and sat down cross-legged.
Although at first, when they were attacked by the scale beasts, the two teams still compared each other from time to time, and they didn't want to be short in front of each other, but as they went deeper, the environment became more and more harsh, so that the two sides had to temporarily put aside their suspicions and cooperate.
......
Time is long, the road is long, and it is a few years.
On a vast plain, a loud horn sounded, and the puppet city team that had been walking in front suddenly stopped.
Immediately after that, the scale beast team of Xuancheng, which was only more than a hundred zhang away, had already had a tacit understanding, and they also stopped.
In the stone hall on the back of a black-scaled elephant, Han Li and the three of them were sitting around a stone table.
"Stopped again......" Bone Chihiro frowned slightly when she heard the sound of the horn.
"It seems that it has been attacked again, the deeper you have traveled over the years, the stronger the spatial pressure between heaven and earth, the stronger the various scale beasts encountered, and the slower and slower the speed of travel. Xuanyuan Xing sighed and said.

"I thought about retreating all the way, but now it's good, I have to go out to deal with the attacks of the scale beasts. Fortunately, if you kill a scale beast, you can harvest a beast core, and it is not a loss. Han Li said with a wry smile.
"Let's go, go out and see what it is this time?" said Bone Chihiro as she stood up.
The three of them said that, and at the same time got up and walked out of the stone hall.
Coming to the back of the black-scaled elephant, Han Li and the others realized that the situation was a little different from what they had expected.
The terrain in front of him was unobstructed, and the wind and waves ahead were also calm, and there was no sign of the attack of the scale beast at all.
Han Li jumped onto the roof of the stone hall, his eyes narrowing slightly, looking into the distance.
I saw that on the ground hundreds of miles away, the space had been significantly distorted, and a chaotic spatial rift raged there like a storm, clearly cutting the void apart.
Underneath the area of spatial rifts, there was an abyss of rift valley that stretched out in both directions, with no end in sight.
The abyss was pitch black, as if wisps of black mist were rising up, and at intervals, a huge black vortex could be seen, stirring the mist and spinning, like demonic eyes staring into the abyss.
"What is that?" Gu Qianxun and the others also came to Han Li's side and muttered.
"I don't know what it is, but the power of space contained in it is extremely violent, obviously so far away, I can still feel the slightest tearing power, I hope the 'big ruin' we are looking for is not there. Han Li shook his head and said.
The three of them were in shock, but they saw Chenyang flying over with the crab Dao people and landing in front of the three of them.
"City Lord. Xuanyuan Xing clenched his fists first and said.
Han Li and the others also gave a salute.
"No need to be polite, you have all seen the black fog abyss in front of you, the big ruin we are looking for is on the opposite side. Chenyang smiled and waved his hand and said.
When Xuanyuan Xing and Gu Qianxun heard this, they glanced at Han Li at the same time, they were really afraid of something.
"Now, what do you say, what is the way to cross that moat?" Han Li asked.
"I don't know yet, the city lord of Eryu has already met with Shaxin, and I won't know what the result will be until they discuss it. Chenyang shook his head and said.
"This black abyss is so dangerous, I really don't know what way to get by. Xuanyuan Xing said worriedly.
"I've heard the City Lord of Doom say before that this Black Abyss Storm is already the weakest in the past million years, even a hundred years ago, the spatial rift area around it is hundreds of miles wide, even the area under our feet, we can't get close to it. Chenyang sighed and said.
"In that case, why not wait, maybe in another hundred years, the storm in this black abyss will not be a cause for concern?" Gu Qianhiro hesitated.
"The two cities of Xuankui are monitoring and exploring this place at the same time, I don't know how many years, both sides are afraid that the other party will enter the ruins first, and you must know that a slow step is a slow step. Originally, the city lord of Eru held this five-city meeting in order to select talents for entering the ruins, but he didn't expect the puppet city to take the initiative to come to the door and ask for cooperation, which made the city lord's plan have to be advanced some time ago. Chenyang thought for a moment and said.
"Now it seems that this puppet city takes the initiative to seek cooperation, most of which is also a helpless move, just this black abyss in front of them, I am afraid that they will not be able to cross it by themselves. Bone Chihiro said with a deep groan.
"I think it's not just that, they don't dare to explore on their own, most of them are afraid that the city will be empty and will be copied by Xuancheng. Han Li shook his head lightly and said.
"Li Daoyou hasn't been in my Xuancheng for a long time, but he knows quite a bit about the situation here. Hearing this, Chenyang said with a smile.
At this moment, suddenly a figure swept up from the puppet city team, crossed the air a hundred zhang high, and fell down towards this side, its stature was medium, its appearance was ordinary, but the momentum on its body was extremely majestic, it was Doom.
When it was about to land, the five fingers of its hands were separated, and it floated in the void, and the downward momentum of its body suddenly slowed down, and it landed on the head of the bull-headed scale beast like a feather.
"Everyone in Xuancheng listened to the order, followed the direction of the black abyss, and continued to march eastward, paying attention to the changes in the spatial rift along the way, and not entering it by mistake. A voice that was not very loud sounded, but with a shocking power, it penetrated into the hearts of everyone.
"It's time to go. After Chenyang spoke, he left with the crab man.
Then, the two teams started again, one after the other, and slowly moved towards the east.
The black abyss stretched all the way to the east, and it was not exactly the same along the way, some places were obviously wider, and the spatial rift shrouded above was obviously wider.
Occasionally, you can see some scale beasts on the road, and if they accidentally break into the range of the spatial rift, they will immediately be caught in the spatial rift, and they will be directly cut into pieces, and their death will be very miserable.
In the process of being pursued by natural predators, some scale beasts that are good at flying pass over the black abyss, and are torn down by the powerful attraction generated in the huge whirlpool in the abyss, and swallowed into the whirlpool.
Han Li had seen it with his own eyes, a four-winged scaly eagle spread its wings thousands of feet in the air, flying out of the clouds, its four wings waving in an attempt to cross the black abyss.
As a result, as soon as it flew above the abyss, it was as if it had hit the backbone with a giant mace, and its body suddenly folded towards the center, falling rapidly, and smashed directly into a black whirlpool.
