Chapter 381 Entering the Dark Gorge
To be honest, it was very strange for Chen Li to find such a beautiful paradise on earth called the Underworld.
But he had nothing much to say now. At least he had come here. Even if he thought more, it would probably be meaningless.
"That's right, this is the Nether Gorge Realm. Why, are you surprised?" Jiang Han, who was standing aside, asked Chen Li.
The Underworld is a secluded place. Very few people know about it, and even fewer outsiders can enter it.
To be honest, Jiang Han was not worried that Chen Li would reveal any secrets by letting him in here. After all, with that person there, as long as Chen Li caused any trouble, he would be discovered in an instant.
"It's really surprising." Chen Li said lightly.
Because he really didn't expect that the Nether Gorge Realm was not a deep and dark place like the Starry Sky Sea or the Demon Realm. Instead, it was bright and full of spiritual energy, making it a perfect place for cultivation.
"Although we have cooperated a lot before, don't think that I trust you. Come with me first, I will take you to meet the three clan leaders." Jiang Han glanced at Chen Li and turned and left.
Chen Li nodded and didn't say much. He just followed Jiang Han quietly.
After entering the village, Chen Li discovered that many people here were at the early stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, and there was even a young man in his teens who had reached the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.
I have to say, this is indeed a scary place. Children with a bone age of only ten years old can actually become powerful people in the Nascent Soul stage.
If other people knew about this, they would probably be so angry that they would vomit blood. After all, they had practiced hard for hundreds of years but could only barely reach the Nascent Soul stage. Some even died on the way to the Nascent Soul stage.
It seems that there must be some special cultivation method in the Nether Gorge Realm, otherwise there would not be such a result.
Not long after, Chen Li and his companions had entered a place that looked very remote. There was only one thatched hut in this place, which looked very shabby, but Chen Li could sense that there seemed to be a strong man inside.
"Oh, Jiang Han, you brought a new face here." At this time, a strong voice came into the ears, and then a middle-aged man walked out of the house.
Although the other person looks to be in his fifties, he has probably lived for hundreds or even thousands of years. How could such a strong man be willing to stay in such a small place?
Although Chen Li was confused, he didn't say anything. He just looked at Jiang Han, waiting for him to introduce him.
Jiang Han said respectfully, "Third Patriarch, this cultivator is from the outside world. He seems to be here to ask for help. He has some relationship ."
Hearing the three words "Senior Duan", the three clan leaders showed surprise on their faces, and then asked: "Could it be that old fellow Duan Yunsheng?"
Chen Li didn't know what to say. This cultivator actually called Duan Yunsheng an old guy.
"Yes. As for whether these are true or not, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you, the Third Elder, to ask them." Jiang Han saluted respectfully, then turned around and left.
Watching Jiang Han leave, the third clan leader glanced at Chen Li and said slowly, "Come in with me, let's talk."
Chen Li nodded and followed the other party in. Although he was not sure about the situation here, it would be better to be more restrained for now.
After the two of them sat down in the yard, Chen Li felt a very strong oppressive force. It was obvious that the other party was planning to give him a warning.
After all, he underestimated Chen Li. When this pressure was exerted, it was dissipated by Chen Li.
"There is some trick. Let me introduce myself. I am the third patriarch of the Qingming clan, Li Huaming. So, a strong man like you, are you really here to seek help?" Li Huaming looked at Chen Li, obviously a little unconvinced.
Chen Li touched his chin. This was a very surprising thing. He didn't expect that the other party could understand his cultivation level so well.
Since Li Huaming already knows his own realm, there is no need to pretend too much. It is better to be direct with him.
"Of course it is so." Chen Li said solemnly.
"With your strength, it should be easy to suppress the danger caused by the red moon phenomenon. Why did you come to us?" Li Huaming took a sip of tea slowly and asked Chen Li.
Chen Li is a powerful warrior in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm. With his strength, he can take on the heavy responsibility alone. When their Qingming clan came to help, they only sent out one warrior in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm and a small number of clan members.
Chen Li smiled bitterly and shook his head. "If that's the case, then I probably wouldn't have come here. After all, there might be even more powerful enemies appearing in this red moon phenomenon."
This sentence froze the expression on Li Huaming's face, and then he looked at Chen Li, "Are you talking about the Tianyan period?"
How could such a powerful person appear in the Kyushu Continent through the red moon phenomenon? Could it be that this kid was deceiving him?
"That's right, but from the look on your face, you don't seem to believe what I said. But please still believe that every word I said is true." Chen Li said solemnly.
This was not a joke, nor was it a lie. After all, Chen Li knew that the Demon Emperor would appear in the Red Moon Vision.
Such a powerful enemy would definitely bring about a catastrophic disaster if it appeared in the Kyushu continent.
Seeing Chen Li's solemn expression, Li Huaming's expression also became serious. If it was really as Chen Li said, then the Jiuzhou Continent would be in trouble.
It was impossible for him to agree to such a thing out of hand. If a strong man in the Tianyan period really appeared, he would probably have to ask the patriarch for help. However, given his personality, he would probably not agree to it at all.
After thinking for a while, Li Huaming finally said, "Let us consider this matter. I will ask the tribesmen to arrange accommodation for you later. Please stay here for a few days."
Chen Li did not refuse. Since he had not yet gotten the answer he wanted, he just did as he was told.
After that, Li Huaming disappeared. It can be seen that he must have something to do.
After waiting patiently for a while, Chen Li felt a figure coming towards him quickly.
Looking at the other person's figure, Chen Li was a little surprised. He didn't expect it to be this person. Isn't this the child he saw just now?
"Senior, the third clan leader asked me to take you to your residence." The child walked in front of Chen Li and said respectfully.
It seems that the other party does not become arrogant just because he is a member of the Qingming clan. This kind of mentality is very good.
Chen Li slowly stood up and followed the child all the way. Soon they arrived at the door of a house that looked very nice.
"From now on, this will be your residence. If you have any problems, you can contact me. My name is Zhou Sheng." Zhou Sheng took out a jade token from the space ring and handed it to Chen Li.
Chen Li nodded and took the jade token. "I understand. Go do your own thing."
After Zhou Sheng left, Chen Li looked at the jade token in his hand. This should be used to transmit messages, but he didn't expect that they would use this method to notify.
Forget it, there is no need to care about these things. It is better to just wait patiently for news from Li Huaming.
At the same time, in another cave for cultivation, Li Huaming's figure had appeared at the entrance of the cave, and he behaved very respectfully.
"Brother, I have something to discuss with you." Li Huaming shouted towards the cave entrance with a slightly respectful voice.
In an instant, a very rich spiritual energy suddenly spread out, whistling past like a strong wind. Until the spiritual energy completely calmed down, a figure walked out of the cave.
The other party's physique was not as strong as expected, and even looked a little thin. He was wearing a white Taoist robe, and there was no spiritual energy emanating from him. However, his pair of dark eyes were filled with creepy murderous intent.
"Third brother, is there anything more important than my cultivation?" The man dusted himself off and asked.
Li Huaming couldn't help but gasp. This was his elder brother, Li Cang, who was also the patriarch of the Qingming clan and one of the most powerful hidden masters in the Jiuzhou continent.
Judging from his performance just now, I'm afraid Li Cang's martial arts skills have reached the level of returning to nature.
"I heard from someone from the outside world that when the red moon phenomenon begins, there will probably be a strong man in the Tianyan period who will appear." Li Huaming finally said this.
Li Cang naturally understood what Li Huaming was thinking, and said calmly: "So, you are going to discuss with me whether to let me go out to help, right?"
"Yes, after all, we promised that person, so now we still have to ask for your opinion." Li Huaming said.
Li Huaming was only the third patriarch of the Qingming clan. Although he had considerable power, he had to discuss such important matters with Li Cang, the chief patriarch.
Li Cang sighed softly and looked at the endless illusory scenery : "After all, Lin Xiao has been dead for so many years, is it really necessary for us to help him guard the Kyushu Continent?"
Li Huaming did not say anything, because he knew very well what Li Cang was thinking. Even though Li Cang said so, he was actually the one who was least willing to give up.
"Speaking of which, where is that person?" Li Cang turned to look at Li Huaming and asked.
Li Huaming replied, "Currently, Zhou Sheng has led him to the uninhabited place. By the way, I heard that he learned about the Qingming Clan from Duan Yunsheng."
Li Cang touched his chin but didn't say anything. His figure disappeared from this place in an instant. Li Huaming didn't seem surprised. If nothing unexpected happened, Li Cang would probably have reached Chen Li by now.
As for Chen Li, he had originally planned to concentrate on his cultivation, but he suddenly sensed a spiritual energy. Although this spiritual energy was weak, he was eventually captured by Chen Li.
He quickly turned around and was shocked to find that there was a young man behind him.
The young man did not have any spiritual energy, but Chen Li was shocked because he sensed an extremely dangerous aura from him.
"I am Chen Li, the junior, nice to meet you, senior." Chen Li bowed very respectfully. The person in front of him was definitely not a simple person, so he naturally could not neglect him.
Li Cang stared at Chen Li, with his hands behind his back, and asked, "I heard that you heard that the Tianyan period demons will appear in Jiuzhou Continent?"
"Well, I accidentally entered the demon world and heard this news." Chen Li said.
He learned this information from that woman Youye. If he was asked to produce any evidence, it would probably be impossible.
"I can see that you didn't lie, but why should we help you?" Li Cang looked at Chen Li and asked him.
Chen Li was obviously a little surprised. The other party believed this was true, but had no intention of helping. It seemed that he would not gain anything from this trip.
Just as Li Cang said, why should they help him? Since there is no way to get help from them, it seems that he has to try another method.
At least during this period of time, I still have the opportunity to practice. At the same time, it is impossible for the Demon Emperor to arrive at Jiuzhou Continent so soon. I just hope that I can be promoted to the Tianyan period during this period of time.
"I have overstepped my bounds. I will not disturb you any more and will leave now." Chen Li said respectfully, then turned and left.
