Chapter 143 Invasion of the Fortress
As soon as the words fell, they saw two figures suddenly flying in another direction.
The demons who spoke just now were these two guys.
Chen Li was a little surprised. What was going on? Logically, shouldn't they have been discovered? Why didn't these two demons have any intention of coming back?
He soon discovered the problem, because it was not them who were discovered, but someone else.
Not far away, there was a figure flying.
After taking a closer look, Chen Li was very shocked, because this person turned out to be Yun Yi.
"I originally thought that this guy wouldn't be so stupid, but now it seems that I really don't know what to say." Chen Li held his forehead and talked to himself.
Even Zheng Yuan couldn't bear to watch it anymore. "How could this guy be so stupid? You know, this is the territory of the demons. He actually rushed over so blatantly. Is he really not afraid of death?"
Even the two of them had to be very cautious and did not dare to be discovered by others. However, Yun Yi rushed forward recklessly and was discovered by the other party.
But neither of them had any intention of going over to rescue people, because they knew very well what they needed to do now.
"He is your friend after all. Don't you plan to save him?" Zheng Yuan suddenly asked Chen Li when he sneaked in.
Chen Li sneered, "You said he was my friend before, why should I help him? You don't think I'm a good person, do you?"
Although Chen Li and Yun Yi had a good relationship, at this time, he was not interested in saving such a reckless person.
If their plans deviate or go wrong because of saving people, it would be a waste of time.
So the most important thing now is to sneak in and take away what you need, or leave this place.
Moreover, he was aware of Yun Yi's strength. Even if that guy had no way to break in, he would not be killed by these demons.
Therefore, my worries are completely unnecessary. I might as well take this opportunity to observe my surroundings more.
Zheng Yuan didn't pay any attention to what Chen Li said. After all, it was too dangerous here. If it weren't for the Hidden Spirit Pill, they would have been discovered long ago.
Gradually, the two of them had gone deeper into the fortress. It must be said that this place looked really uncomfortable.
Even a magician like Zheng Yuan felt that this place was too weird.
There were no rooms around, the only things there were cages, in which many demons were imprisoned.
Every demon was covered in blood, looking drained, and had many scars on their bodies.
These were relatively light ones. Some demons had even been dismembered and became food for other demons.
"It's so annoying. This place is just like hell." Zheng Yuan couldn't help but frown.
Even though he was used to seeing corpses, he had never seen such a pile of corpses.
In comparison, Chen Li didn't feel much about it. Instead, he said casually, "After all, what does the matter of these demons have to do with us? If they die, we will have fewer opponents."
He didn't care about the situation of these demons, because to him, the result was the most important.
Besides, aren’t human monks the same as them, killing each other and seizing each other’s magic weapons simply for their own improvement?
Zheng Yuan nodded. That was true, but from the very beginning, he felt that this place was too gloomy, as if something had been hiding nearby.
"Ah!" A miserable wailing sound came from not far away, causing the two of them to stop immediately.
They looked at each other, then nodded, and at this time, they rushed forward without hesitation.
In just a moment, the two of them arrived at this place.
When they saw the scene before them, they gasped at the same time.
Because in the sight, there was a demon that looked very strange, and was gnawing at its dying companion.
Blood kept splattering, and there were a lot of broken pieces of flesh around.
Fortunately, Zheng Yuan and the other man had the Hidden Spirit Pill. If they were discovered, a battle would be inevitable.
Then, the two of them headed in another direction. If nothing unexpected happened, that side should be the deep end.
"These demons are so cruel that they even eat their own kind." Zheng Yuan frowned and muttered to himself.
Chen Li did not respond because he felt that something was wrong with the situation.
The demon that was eating its companion just now had the same demonic energy as the one he encountered for the first time, and it exuded an ominous aura all over its body.
Could it be that the birth of these demons all occurred through such a process?
While he was still thinking, Zheng Yuan suddenly stopped him.
Boom! A fireball passed by them and hit the wall hard.
A very large deep pit appeared on the entire wall, and a burning smell came from the air.
Chen Li frowned. He didn't expect to be discovered at this time.
A demon holding a large iron ball slowly approached them, staring at the two of them with his red eyes.
"We have been discovered. It seems that these demons are smarter than I thought." Zheng Yuan waved his right hand and a bloody dagger appeared in his hand.
Of course Chen Li did not hesitate and summoned the black sword.
The huge demon before them was emitting a fiery aura all over its body. If it weren't for the spiritual energy protecting their bodies, they would have found it difficult to breathe.
But what was strange was that they were all ready for a fight, but this guy actually turned around and walked towards another intersection.
Seeing this scene, the two had no idea what was going on.
We were all ready to fight, but this guy gave up?
Bang! There was a violent vibration not far away, which was where the red .
Turning around, he was shocked to find that the demon was actually killing its own kind.
"It seems that we have avoided a disaster." Zheng Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, his voice trembling slightly.
The demon just now was at least in the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm. Although he could be killed, it would be a waste of a lot of energy.
Besides, they don't have so much time to deal with it now, and once they start fighting, they will not be fighting against one demon, but will attract many demons.
Chen Li turned his head and looked at a place not far away. There was a cold aura emanating from that place, which made his face look a little ugly.
Even Chen Li found the coldness of that place terrifying, and for some reason, the pressure made him afraid to move forward.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Chen Li like this, Zheng Yuan turned around and asked.
Chen Li pointed to the gate not far away and said to him: "Do you feel that there seems to be something in there?"
Although there was only a slight chill, for some reason, I always felt that there seemed to be a familiar atmosphere here.
It was as if I had felt it before, but I didn't know where.
Zheng Yuan turned his gaze and looked at the gate over there, his expression becoming somewhat ugly.
"That place is a bit weird." He lowered his head and pondered.
This is indeed a bit dangerous. If I go in, I might really die there.
But they seemed to have no choice, as other places were dead ends, and only there was a door.
In that case, the only option is to go to that place and see if you can see something.
"Let's go in and take a look." Zheng Yuan said as he walked forward.
But Chen Li grabbed him at this moment, "Are you crazy? Are you going to just go there like this?"
If you are not prepared, you won’t know how you died.
Zheng Yuan was stunned for a moment, but soon understood what Chen Li meant.
Going in without any preparation will only lead to their tragic death inside, so they have to be prepared now.
Afterwards, the two began to make full preparations, and only after an incense stick of time did they head towards the gate.
"Open the door." Chen Li looked at Zheng Yuan, his face turned serious, and said to him.
Zheng Yuan opened the door without hesitation.
The moment the door opened, a figure suddenly rushed over, making the two of them frown.
Fortunately, Zheng Yuan reacted quickly. He immediately took out a dagger and stabbed the other person.
In just a moment, the other party disappeared.
This made Zheng Yuan look incredible: "What's going on?"
His dagger had clearly stabbed the other person, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye, as if it had never appeared.
If he hadn't felt such a substantial touch just now, he would have thought he was seeing an illusion.
Chen Li glanced around, his expression gradually becoming serious, "It seems like there's something strange about this place."
The figure just now was definitely not an illusion. Although this place looks empty, there are definitely many enemies.
He slowly expanded his spiritual sense and sensed the movements around him.
The room was very large and also very empty. Apart from a stone formation in front, there was nothing else.
Huh? The moment Chen Li felt the situation around him, his expression suddenly turned cold.
Zheng Yuan, who was originally moving forward, was caught by him and pulled back two steps.
Zheng Yuan was about to ask what was going on when a cold light flashed and a small hole suddenly appeared on the ground.
Demonic energy emanated from the small hole, causing everyone standing there to gasp.
"This is really life-saving." Zheng Yuan said to Chen Li.
He didn't feel the attack just now at all. If Chen Li hadn't been there, he would have been killed long ago.
Chen Li glanced around and said to Zheng Yuan, "Don't take it lightly. If we don't expand our spiritual sense, we will both die."
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared, holding a long knife, and slashed at the two of them.
Fortunately, Chen Li reacted quickly and swung the black sword forward.
Boom! A sword energy penetrated the opponent's body and slashed straight into the wall not far away.
The figure that had just appeared had disappeared.
Chen Li glanced around with a frown. He had clearly deployed his spiritual sense, but the moment the other party appeared, he didn't feel anything.
"It's strange. These demons are clearly hiding nearby, so why can't we sense them?" Chen Li seemed very unhappy and said in a cold voice.
Currently, the enemy is in the dark while we are in the light, and our spiritual sense cannot detect the other side. The only thing we can rely on now is probably our intuition and sense of danger.
Zheng Yuan glanced around and a burst of spiritual energy burst out from his body. This spiritual energy continued to surround him and formed a protective shield.
He just didn't believe that the other party could still attack him in this way.
Chen Li's eyes lit up. Yes, why didn't he think of this method?
At this moment, Chen Li felt a breath coming, which made him look back quickly.
But he found that there was nothing behind him.
Strange, could it be that this feeling is wrong?
But he soon discovered that it was not that he was wrong, but that the other party was too fast. Although he sensed it, he could not find any trace of the other party.
He quickly took the black sword and rushed forward. Since he had been fooled by the opponent here, he decided to think of a way to force him out.
The only things here are the stones. Perhaps these demons are hiding here just to protect the stones.
