Chapter 1854 Desert Palace

Chang Taian looked around and walked back with a gloomy face.

Lu Li had already put away the Magic Moon Bell and asked calmly, "Why don't you chase after me?"

Chang Tai'an lowered his head and clasped his fists: "It's not safe here. Disciples don't dare to chase."

Lu Li nodded and said, "You're afraid this is a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain."

"The Patriarch Bo Mingjian."

"Don't blame yourself. I understand what you're thinking, and thanks to you, otherwise I might not be able to survive until this time." Lu Li stepped forward, patted Chang Tai'an on the shoulder, and continued to move forward.

Chang Taian followed behind without saying a word, and after a moment he said with some worry: "I don't know why these guys are so crazy, they actually target Uncle Grandmaster like this."

Lu Li shook his head: "I don't know either."

Chang Tai'an said: "Do you have any means to save your life, Grandmaster? If so, I can give it a try next time."

Chang Tai'an probably meant that if Lu Li could protect himself, he wouldn't have many scruples and might be able to stay with the enemy.

Lu Li shook his head: "As you can see, the one just now was my life-saving means. It is infinitely close to the third-level defensive weapon. It cannot be said to be excellent, but it is not bad either."

"Is there anything else?" Chang Taian asked.

"Gone."

"I'm afraid that's not very safe."

"This is a natal weapon. It should be able to withstand the initial attacks of Xuanxian." Lu Li came out of the passage.

"That's pretty good. By the way, Uncle Patriarch, where's the girl Chan Bao? Didn't she go out of the forbidden area with you last time? Why didn't she come with you?" Chang Taian nodded and asked curiously.

"Her cultivation level is too low, so I didn't bring her out." Lu Li said calmly.

"oh."

Chang Tai'an responded and stopped talking. He followed Lu Li with his head buried, not knowing what he was thinking.

Lu Li didn't say anything, but his heart became colder and colder. He really couldn't understand why this person who was least likely to have problems was the most suspicious person.

Two days later, Lu Li finally sensed what seemed to be strong fluctuations of immortal energy in the distance. He rushed over and saw that it was a rare second-level elixir.

However, there is also a guardian beast at the level of a true immortal.

"I'll get it for you."

Before Lu Li could speak, Chang Tai'an had already dodged away, and with a wave of his hand, a chess piece several feet in size shot out of the air, easily blowing open the liger's head.

Chang Tai'an easily obtained the elixir, took it back and handed it to Lu Li: "It looks good, it's a second-level glazed grass."

Lu Li smiled and said, "You don't want it yourself?"

Chang Tai'an said: "I came here to protect the safety of my uncle, not to look for opportunities."

"Thank you very much."

Lu Li smiled and took the glaucosa, and sighed: "What a treasure. It's a pity that it grows in the wrong place."

Chang Taian was slightly startled: "Why do you say that?"

Lu Li put the glazed grass in front of his nose and smelled it: "It is said that the glazed grass has no upper limit. The more essence of heaven and earth it absorbs, the stronger its medicinal properties will be. It will not stop growing after a certain age like other elixirs."

"Classically, it is said that after the glazed grass absorbs enough essence of the Tao, it is even possible to open up spiritual wisdom. But it is a pity that when it appears in front of you and me, it is destined to never attain Taoism in this life."

Chang Taian smiled and said: "Maybe, this is fate."

"You're right, it's all fate."

Lu Li put away the glass grass, smiled slightly, and continued to walk forward. As he walked, he said, "Tell me, when will this secret realm end?"

Chang Taian shook his head: "I don't know."

Lu Li said: "Then how do you think we can get out of here?"

Chang Taian thought for a while: "Any exit must be different from other places. We can try to go in a special direction."

"Special direction?"

"For example, if the immortal energy is extremely strong, the rules are extremely strong, or there are some ancient buildings in the direction, there may be a way to leave such a place." Chang Tai'an replied.

"What you said makes sense." Lu Li stopped and felt it secretly, suddenly feeling that there seemed to be something special about the north. But Lu Li couldn't tell exactly what was different. It seemed that the rules of space there were slightly different from those here.

After hesitating for a moment, Lu Li pointed to the north: "Let's go there."

This secret realm is indeed big enough, but if you shrink it and look down, you will find that there are actually five different places in this secret realm.

First of all, there is a valley clearing in each of the four directions of southeast, northwest and northwest, with a stone monument erected in each.

The stone monument to the south is where Lu Li has been before.

The portal at the foot of the stone monument is covered with a red barrier, and the base of the stone monument also spits out fiery red mist from time to time.

The remaining three stone monuments have the same shape as the one in the south, but the difference is that the north is filled with aqua mist, the east is filled with green mist, and the west is filled with golden mist.

It seems that there should be a correspondence between the four symbols of east wood, west metal, south fire and north water. As for whether there is any deep meaning in them, it is unknown.

And one last special place.

It is the central area of ​​the entire secret realm.

Surrounded by vast mountains, the center of the secret realm is actually a flat and vast desert.

The dark red dust and sand can't be seen to the end at a glance, and it seems incompatible with the surrounding green mountains.

If someone could walk to the center of the desert, they would find that there is an ancient palace standing here. Even if the sky is full of sand outside, the bluestone square that surrounds the ancient palace for more than ten miles is not stained with dust.

Four stone sculptures stand in the square in front of the temple.

An old turtle with a black snake wrapped around it, a red bird with sharp eyes and wings spread, a blue dragon coiled around a stone pillar, and a white tiger roaring to the sky. The four stone sculptures are lifelike and awe-inspiring.

One day.

A group of people appeared in the mountains east of the desert.

The leader was an old man with purple robe and gray hair. Behind him followed a young man and woman, and a middle-aged man in green.

"Look, Junior Sister!"

At this time, the young man in white suddenly pushed aside a bunch of branches in front of him, looked at the vast desert outside the mountain, and said in shock: "How can there be a desert here!"

Zhu Yu hurriedly came up after hearing this.

Looking up, he was also surprised: "Yes, how can there be a desert here, and it looks so big, you can't see the end at all."

"Why are you shouting!"

Zhu Youzhi, who was walking in front, turned his head and glared at the two of them, and continued to walk along the ridge and the top of the mountain with his hands behind his back.

Zhu Yu retracted his gaze and followed behind him angrily.

Yu Kang naturally knew why Zhu Youzhi was angry, and he turned his head and looked at Ning Wuzhou coldly.

Ning Wuzhou had no expression on his face, shook his head, and said nothing.

After a while, several people came to the top of the mountain. At this time, they looked up and their vision was much wider.

But several people were surprised to find that they still underestimated this boundless desert, because even standing on this mountain top, they still couldn't see its full picture.

"Grandpa, should we go in and take a look?" Zhu Yu retracted his gaze and looked at Zhu Youzhi.

"This desert appeared abruptly, maybe the way to leave is in it, so we naturally have to go in and take a look, but not now."

Zhu Youzhi said slowly, walked to a stone next to him and sat down.

"A way to leave!"

Zhu Yu's eyes lit up, and he came over and asked, "Then when do we go in?"

"What's the hurry!"

"You are just a burden. If something happens in there, can I take care of it by myself?"

Zhu Youzhi glared at Zhu Yu, then looked at Ning Wuzhou in the distance, frowned and said, "You look upset, are you worried about something?"
