Chapter 723: Peeping
As the three foxes said something in their mouths, and raised their fingers to click on the crystal ball a few times in succession, a layer of colorful crystal light suddenly bloomed on the surface of the crystal ball, and under one roll, Han Li and several others were all enveloped in it.
After the crystal light flickered slightly, the figures of Han Li and the others disappeared in place, and even their aura was completely obscured.
"Is this an illusion technique that the Fox Three Dao Friends have cast?" Han Li wondered.
"Sort of, this layer of crystal light can't touch the perception prohibition, otherwise it will immediately show its tracks. We're running out of time, so let's do it. Fox San nodded and urged.
With that, a few people swaggered to the base of the black city wall under the shroud of this layer of crystal light.
The whole process really didn't attract the slightest attention from the surroundings, and those ghost slave guards just stood there straight, without even a trace of fluctuation in their eyes.
Seeing this, Han Li's heart was slightly relieved.
"It's almost here, isn't it?" asked Kuzai.
"Wait, I've got to set it up. ”
As he spoke, he began to turn over his hand and take out pieces of array disks, and arrange them on the ground with pieces of ink stones.
"Can you use this thing to set up a formation? I thought you bought it for that demon pill. Seeing this, Han Li said with a slight startle.
"Arrange the space magic circle, pay attention to the convenience of the location, of course, it is better to use local materials, anyway, there is a magic light Taoist friend, I will teach him the method of urging. Shi Chuankong said with a smile.
With that, he continued to lay his head down.
Han Li looked at it carefully from the side, and found that the magic circle arranged by the stone piercing the air was very complicated, it was actually somewhat similar to the teleportation magic circle, but it was obviously different, and with his eyesight, he couldn't see too many doorways.
"Brother Shi, okay, my Shadow Illusion Crystal won't last long......" After a while, Hu San urged a little anxiously.
"Alright, you all stand in the circle. Shi Chuankong embedded the last array disk into the magic circle, wiped his forehead, and straightened up to speak.
When Han Li and the others heard this, they immediately moved into the magic circle, a small circle, just enough for the five of them.
"It's not difficult to urge, you try to restrain your breath for a while, and I will cover up the fluctuations of the city wall circle. After listening to the method of urging the formation of the stone piercing the sky, the magic light nodded and said.
Then, I saw him raise a finger, and a billowing air immediately flowed out of the finger, spinning like wisps of black smoke, enveloping all five of them.
Immediately afterward, a burst of chanting came from the mouth of the magic light, and circles of spatial fluctuations were immediately born from the magic circle under everyone's feet, but they were blocked by the black wall of evil qi that surrounded them, and there was no flow out of the slightest.
"Let's go. A soft shout sounded, and the phantom crystal light of the fox three burst at the same time.
Several figures in the circle distorted at the same time and disappeared.
On the city wall, a ghostly slave's eyelids jumped, and he looked down at the base of the city wall with some feeling, and saw that there seemed to be a whirlwind there, rolling up a gray-brown dust on the ground.
He hurriedly released his divine sense and swept it there, but he didn't notice anything unusual.
And the forbidden magic circle on the city wall did not fluctuate at all, he shook his head, and there was no longer any expression on his indifferent face, and he returned to his original appearance.
On the other side, on a blue-gray brick paved path, the figures of Han Li and several people appeared, and then their figures flashed, flashing silently towards the city.
Perhaps because of the fact that the Three Regions Alliance was being held, the Baizang area seemed to be even more deserted, and the buildings in the city were generally not high, only some towers like bunkers stood tall, and there were also armored slaves stationed on them.
In some of the streets and alleys of the city, you can still see groups of patrol slaves shuttling back and forth, and the leaders of them can occasionally see some existences comparable to true immortal monks.
"The security in this Tibetan area is obviously tighter, so we have to be more careful. Shi Chuankong looked around a few times and said.
"I just paid attention to the observation, and the situation in this Baizang area is quite different from the one marked on the map, and the location of many watchtowers is not marked. Magic Light said in a deep voice.
"It's not surprising, this picture is mostly the version of the entire Shura City before martial law, and if there are any changes in the city later, it will naturally not be shown on it, as long as the distribution of roads in the Baizang area is not wrong. Han Li shook his head and said so.
"There is nothing unusual about the road, there are three roads to the border with Rasheng, two of which lead to the city gate and the other to a corner tower in the northwest direction. After thinking for a moment, Magic Light said.
"Then let's go to the corner tower first, most of the city tower is the same as before, there are Da Luo Realm monks stationed there. Han Li said with a deep groan.
The rest of the group had no objection to this.
After agreeing, they avoided the watchtowers and slaves in the city, and walked carefully through the Tibetan area.
After a distance towards the Baizang area, the number of patrol slaves in the city has not decreased, but has increased, but the number of those watchtowers has also increased a lot, and one by one the armored slaves are closely patrolling on it all the time.
All over the Tibetan area is simply five steps and one post, and ten steps and one sentry.
Even if Han Li's five people were all advanced cultivators, under such circumstances, they had to muster up their spirits and move forward carefully.
In the blink of an eye, most of the hours passed, and the five of them finally came to the central area of the Baizang District, and hid behind a tall building to rest for a while.
Han Li's gaze wandered around, his brows furrowed slightly.
He could clearly feel that there was a sudden and bitter coldness in the air here, and a layer of hoarfrost faintly condensed on the ground and walls nearby.
There are no ordinary buildings in sight here, and the road is lined with tall black fortress-like buildings, which are connected to each other to form a continuous group of fortresses.
Several large chimneys rose from the fortress complex, and from which billowing gray smoke poured from time to time, making it look like some kind of large workshop.
There were especially many guards near this fortress group, and from time to time there were rays of light flying in mid-air, patrolling all the movements below.
"There are so many guards here, it seems that this building complex is not simple, and it may hide some kind of secret of the Nine Shadows Clan. Fox San looked at the fortress group in front of him, his eyes lit up slightly, and he communicated with the other four people.
"What is in this has nothing to do with us, and finding the bath is the priority. Fox three, the current situation is not as usual, you don't want to make any more extraneous branches. Shi Chuankong's face tightened, and he immediately warned.
"I know, you can rest assured. Hu San smiled faintly and said.
Shi Chuankong was still a little uneasy, staring at Hu San tightly, as if he was afraid that he would get into trouble.
Han Li glanced at the two of them, then his gaze turned to the surrounding black fortresses as well, and with a movement of his mind, a wisp of divine sense quietly infiltrated inside.
As soon as his divine sense penetrated into the walls of the fortress, he was immediately unceremoniously bounced out by an invisible force.
A hint of surprise flashed in Han Li's eyes, and he hurriedly withdrew his divine sense, not continuing to forcibly probe.
"Boy, do you want to know what this is all about?" At this moment, Shi Qinghou's voice sounded in Han Li's heart again.
"Looks like you know?" Han Li's eyebrows moved as he asked.
"Under this wall is the Nine Shadows Great Tibetan Forbidden Spell, although this technique is the secret prohibition of the Nine Shadows Clan, but it is not difficult to crack it, I will pass you the method of cracking, you can see for yourself. Shi Qinghou didn't answer Han Li's question, and said to himself.
Then a stream of thought passed to Han Li's mind, but it was a mysterious method to break the prohibition.
"Why did you pass on this secret technique to me and let me investigate the situation inside?" Han Li asked after obtaining the secret technique, but he didn't show any joy, and his brows were slightly furrowed.
But at this moment, Shi Qinghou fell silent again, and did not seem to intend to respond.
Han Li's eyes sank slightly, and after a moment's hesitation, he decided to release a wisp of divine consciousness and infiltrate the wall again.
An invisible force immediately emerged from within the wall, blocking the advance of the divine sense.
His eyes flashed slightly, and then he ran the forbidden method to break it.
The original tenacious forbidden power quickly became soft, and then merged with the power of his divine sense.
Immediately after that, his divine consciousness "poof", easily penetrated into it, and saw the situation inside.
Han Li's eyes flickered slightly, but then he recovered.
Inside the fortress he explored was a huge pool, twenty or thirty zhang in size, filled with a gray-white liquid, which seemed to be boiling at the moment, and was tumbling violently.
In the pool, there are four dark iron cages, in which there are two gray realm beasts, and two people with horns, I don't know what race.
The two gray beasts let out a terrible scream and struggled inside the iron cage to break out, but the iron cage was extremely strong, and the two beasts were firmly locked inside.
The other two horned aliens did not struggle and scream, their bodies seemed to become stiff, and they lay straight in the cage, only the eyes occasionally turned, indicating that they were still alive, but their expressions were extremely dull.
The two aliens seemed to have been soaked in the middle of this pool for too long, and their bodies were gray and pale, which looked a little weird.
In addition, there are two ghost slaves standing in the pool, closely observing the situation in the pool.
Han Li was surprised for a while, but he didn't look much at it, and quickly spread towards the front, entering the next fortress.
There was no pool in the fortress, but there was a huge furnace under which a billowing gray flame burned, but instead of emitting the slightest scorching aura, it emitted a bitter chill.
And in the furnace, there were several gray-white gray world alien races, or gray beasts, hanging impressively.
Streams of gray light shone out of the furnace, quickly merging into the bodies of these alien races, gray beasts.
The bodies of these alien gray beasts quickly swelled, as if inflated, and strange patterns appeared on their skins.
Han Li's Divine Sense paused here for a moment, and continued to spread towards the depths, and in the blink of an eye, he inspected more than a dozen black fortresses, each of which had a unique method of quenching the body, either boiled, burned, or tempered with severe poison.
Those gray beast alien races were tempered in turn in these fortresses, and their bodies were constantly changing, turning into various humanoid and beast-shaped monsters.
These monsters were much larger than before, but they lost their minds and turned into bewildered puppets, locked in huge iron cages and piled up in the last fortress.
