Chapter 410: Secrets of the City
Chen Li looked at this scene with a little surprise. This guy's strength and speed were almost the same as his own. It seemed that he had a considerable status in the demon world.
"Very good, now that you have said your last words, I will send you on your way." Luo Yi snorted coldly, and the dagger transformed into a poisonous snake, flying directly towards Chen Life.
Although Chen Li wanted to use spiritual energy for defense, he always felt something was strange, so without any hesitation, he turned around and flew in another direction.
But the poisonous snake seemed to have located Chen Li. No matter where he went, the poisonous snake would follow him.
In the end, Chen Li's shoulder was cut by the dagger, but he also cut off the dagger that turned into a poisonous snake. At the moment the dagger broke, a green breath continued to emanate.
In an instant, any object that touched these auras would be corroded in a flash. Chen Li widened his eyes. He didn't expect that this guy would actually use poison.
Luo Yi stared at Chen Li, the corners of his mouth slowly rising. This was the poison of the Hades snake, plus the things he had carefully prepared, even if Chen Li was a strong man in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, he would be infected by the toxin.
Once infected, the spiritual energy in his body would dissipate, and he would bleed from all seven orifices to death, so from then on, he only had to enjoy watching Chen Li's painful death.
However, to his surprise, the poisonous fog had already approached Chen Li, but Chen Li was like nothing happened, moving freely in the poisonous fog.
"How is this possible!" Luo Yi said in surprise as he watched Chen Li suddenly rush out from the poisonous fog.
Even he himself could not withstand the poisonous fog, but Chen Li was able to endure it. Did he have some secret method?
Chen Li stared at Luo Yi in front of him. The Sword of Four Seasons in his hand transformed into countless sword shadows, completely blocking Luo Yi's retreat. Then he aimed at his heart and stabbed it immediately.
But when the sword hit the opponent's heart, a dazzling light suddenly emanated from his body, which actually Chen Li back a long distance.
The light kept flickering, and within a few breaths, the light completely dissipated. Luo Yi, who was originally standing not far away, disappeared.
Chen Li frowned. If nothing unexpected happened, his magic weapon should have been triggered just now, and this guy should have escaped from Square City.
Although Luo Yi had left, Chen Like had no way to relax. To be honest, if someone else had dealt with the poison just now, it would probably only take a moment to destroy it on the spot.
But Chen Li was different. After he devoured the Sky Demon Spider, he became immune to the so-called poison. In addition, his cultivation had now reached the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, so the Sky Demon Clan's racial secrets were naturally much stronger.
Chen Li looked at the tall tower in front of him. He decided to destroy it first. Otherwise, he didn’t know what would happen.
Thinking in his mind, Chen Li slowly raised the Sword of Four Seasons and slashed forward one after another, but every time the sword was slashed, the tower would release powerful demonic energy to block Chen Li's attack.
What surprised him was that the first sword had clearly created quite a few cracks, but now it had no effect at all. This was really strange.
He looked at the tall tower in front of him. Could it be that only by using Lingtian Sword could he destroy the tower?
Chen Li stared at the Sword of Four Seasons in his hand, hesitating in his heart. When he was fighting with Cheng Ping, he had already used up all the spiritual energy in the Sword of Four Seasons. If he wanted to use it again now, he would probably have to use his own spiritual energy.
If something goes wrong, it will be troublesome. We cannot take this risk.
I can't use Lingtian Sword, but other methods don't work either. It seems I can only go in and take a look. Maybe I can find some clues from inside.
He walked forward step by step, and soon he entered the interior of the tower. There was nothing special inside, just like an ordinary attic, the furnishings were very simple.
If it weren't for the strong smell of blood, this place would probably be just an ordinary tower.
Although it is very clean in here, you can smell the blood. I'm afraid this tower is just like the previous ones, filled with human corpses.
He walked inside step by step. Naturally, he didn't notice anything unusual below, and the opponent would not put important things in a conspicuous place.
If I want to find any clues now, I'm afraid I have to go to the top of this tower. I don't know what is waiting for me at the top.
Before long, Chen Li reached the top of the tower, but it seemed a little difficult for him to get in.
There is a big iron gate in front, which carries a strong demonic aura. No matter what method Chen Li uses, he cannot break it open.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Li slowly gathered the spiritual energy in his body, directly released his blood energy, and then suddenly slapped forward with his palm.
The blood and energy continued to spread along the door, and the door was opened so easily.
Looking at the slowly opening door, Chen Li finally understood that only demons could enter this highest place. If there was no blood or demonic energy, but only spiritual energy, it would be almost impossible to open this door.
However, he was still quite curious about what kind of person could build such a gate that even a strong man in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm could not destroy it.
Forget it, now is not the time to think about this. I should first see what is in here. Maybe I can find something good.
Thinking in his mind, Chen Li stepped in. However, as soon as he stepped in, he felt a very terrifying demonic aura.
This evil energy made Chen Li's breathing become a little difficult. The culprit that caused him to become like this was a bead placed in front of him.
The bead was pitch black in color, but the demonic energy it emitted shocked Chen Li. If nothing unexpected happened, this bead might be the thing that prevented him from destroying the tower.
No wonder that guy didn't let him get close to here. It seemed like he was afraid that this thing would be revealed. But it was also strange. If Luo Yi was really afraid that this thing would be discovered by himself, then why did he choose to leave?
Although he had a lot of doubts in his mind, Chen Li was also very clear that now was not the time to discuss this, so he walked forward slowly, intending to take this thing away.
But the further he went, the more he felt a heavy pressure building up on his body. No matter how far he went, the pressure on his body kept building up.
Damn it, if this goes on, I'm afraid I'll be crushed to death by this powerful pressure before I even get close to that strange bead.
I have clearly shown my virility, so why can he still suppress me? Is this an indiscriminate suppression?
In that case, let’s try another method. Chen Li took a few steps back, took out the Sword of Four Seasons, and suddenly slashed forward.
When the sword energy hit the black bead, it was actually bounced back. If Chen Li had not reacted quickly enough, he would have been injured by his own sword energy.
Looking at the deep sword marks on the wall, Chen Li couldn't help but gasp. Fortunately, he dodged it. He didn't expect that the bead could actually deflect his attack.
It seems that I have no choice but to give it a try and get this bead. Thinking of this, Chen Li took a deep breath and gathered all his strength under his feet.
Since slow movement doesn't work, just rush to the bead as fast as possible and take it down.
After the spiritual energy gathered, Chen Li's eyes focused and he suddenly rushed forward. Seeing himself getting closer to the bead, Chen Li's mouth corners raised, it really worked.
The moment he placed his hand on the bead, Chen Li felt a dangerous aura coming from the surroundings, forcing him to withdraw his hand and then enter the innermost position.
Boom! Chen Li suddenly felt a strong repulsive force, which bounced him back to the entrance.
He breathed deeply and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Damn, this thing looked really weird, and there seemed to be some restrictions in this room protecting the bead.
It seems that it is really difficult to take this bead away, but Chen Like does not intend to give up just like that. This bead is definitely a treasure and must be obtained.
But he also had to fight quickly. If he waited until Luo Yi came back, and then fought against Luo Yi in his current state, it would definitely not work.
Thinking in his mind, Chen Li prepared himself again, and this time he was fully prepared.
He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, and a sword-shaped mark suddenly appeared on his forehead.
The moment the sword intent field was opened, Chen Li rushed towards the bead. The restrictions around him were released at this moment, and an attack was launched directly at Chen Li.
All kinds of attacks kept coming. Although the pressure on Chen Li was gradually increasing, he still easily dodged them by relying on the sword intent field.
When he arrived in front of the bead, he immediately reached out and grabbed it, then stepped back violently.
The whole process took barely more than three breaths, and at this time Chen Li already had the bead in his hand.
Strangely enough, when he held this bead, he felt that it was just an ordinary bead and had no function at all.
But after taking the bead away, the restrictions around it had already collapsed, and there was no movement at all.
Feeling this situation, Chen Li breathed a sigh of relief. It should be easy to destroy this tall tower next.
Just as he was thinking this, the ground suddenly shook and the entire tower began to collapse.
Chen Li frowned. This was quite surprising. He didn't expect that this bead was actually the core of the tower. It would disintegrate on its own if it was taken away.
In that case, there is no need to stay here. Let’s leave as soon as possible and go to the Western Desert to help.
His figure kept flashing, and after a few breaths he had left the tower that had turned into ruins. Now that he had destroyed two towers and still had this bead in his hand, he was afraid that the demons would not let him go.
But it’s better this way. If the other party sets their target on me, I can kill them one by one without any fear.
After that, Chen Li left here at a very fast speed and marched towards the Western Desert. He didn't know whether Square City would be attacked again.
But these have nothing to do with him. After all, the tower was destroyed, and it would be unlikely for them to use human corpses to rebuild the tower.
A few hours after Chen Li left, a figure appeared in Pingfang City. This person was Luo Yi.
When Luo Yi saw the destroyed tower over there, his expression suddenly changed, "Damn it, he actually destroyed it."
No, the Xuanmo Tower can be rebuilt after being destroyed, but the core inside must be recovered. We must go and take a look now.
So Luo Yi flew forward without hesitation. After searching for a while near the ruins of the Xuanmo Tower, he realized that Chen Li had taken the core away.
"Don't let me catch you, otherwise I will never let you go." Luo Yi clenched his fists tightly, and the demonic energy on his body became extremely terrifying.
The core was given to him by the Demon Emperor himself. If he lost it, his life would be in danger and the mission would fail completely. He had to get it back.
