"Everyone, whether it's a Metal Force Field or not, we should treat it with caution.
So why don't we split into two teams and enter the hall first? "Jin Liu said after pondering for a while.
"I wonder how we'll go first?" Yu Kuohai raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Everyone, those who cultivate metal-elemental cultivation methods and those who are proficient in prohibition formations will form a vanguard team and enter the door first. If there's indeed a formation supporting the Metal Force Field, those who are proficient in breaking prohibitions will remove the prohibitions and the vanguard team will follow," Jin Liu said.
"Daoist Jin, although this method is good, it's unfair.
Our Worry-Free Pavilion mainly practices Metal Attribute Cultivation Method. Doesn't this mean that we have to test the way for you? "Deputy Pavilion Leader Zhao stepped forward and said.
"Daoist Zhao, don't be anxious. Everyone in the vanguard team, regardless of whether there's a restriction in the door, as long as there's anything, it'll belong to you. How about it?
As the rear team, it's not like we'll be doing nothing. We'll also need to provide support outside the door. If anything goes wrong, we'll naturally support you. "Jin Liu waved his hand and said.
"If that's the case, it's reasonable." Deputy Pavilion Leader Zhao thought for a while and said.
"This time, the vanguard team will be made up of Fierce Light City, Worry-Free Pavilion, and our Tianshui Sect who practice Metal Attribute Cultivation Method. As for Ling Xiao Sect, Ink Fragrance Tower, and Qingsuo Valley, we'll also choose a few Daoist friends who're good at Restriction Breaking. How about it?" Jin Liu thought for a while and said.
Everyone listened and felt that it was a reasonable plan, so they all nodded and agreed.
Han Li saw Yu Kuohai walking towards him and knew that he was going to use him to make up the numbers again. He was speechless.
However, he originally planned to enter the door first, so when Yu Kuohai spoke, he didn't mean to refuse and agreed. However, what surprised him was that Yu Kuohai wanted to join the vanguard team as well.
After everyone had chosen the candidates for the vanguard team, they formed a team of less than a hundred people.
"I was thinking about how to choose a leader for the vanguard team. I didn't expect Daoist Yu, Daoist Yang, and Daoist Zhao to be willing to join. What a surprise." Jin Liu said with a smile.
"Hehe, that's not true.
Since more than half of the people of Worry-Free Pavilion have entered, as the leader, how can I wait outside? "Deputy Pavilion Leader Zhao said righteously.
The people in his sect looked at him with respect in their eyes.
Elder Yang stepped forward and said, "There are many people from Radiant City who have joined the advance party. I will naturally join them and advance and retreat together with them."
"Our Ling Xiao Arch does not specialize in metal-type cultivation techniques. I, Yu Kuohai, am an exception. This time, I will join the advance party with fellow Daoist Shi." Yu Kuohai continued.
As Han Li listened to these rousing words, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
At the end of the day, the goal of these people was to enter first and seize the opportunity to seize the treasures. As for whether it was the Metal Force Field inside, perhaps they felt that they had a way to deal with it, or perhaps they were just hoping for a fluke.
Han Li didn't care about this at all. What truly caught his attention were the Lan siblings who were also part of the advance party.
Previously, when they were breaking the formation, they did not give themselves away. However, he did not know what would happen after entering the door.
Lan Yuanzi was originally talking to Lan Yan when he suddenly sensed that someone was looking at him. He frowned slightly.
When he suddenly turned his head, he found that the gaze had already moved away. No one was looking in his direction.
"What's wrong, brother..." Lan Yan was puzzled.
"Nothing, it's probably just an illusion." Lan Yuanzi smiled and said.
"What if there really is a treasure after we enter the door?" Lan Yan suddenly turned to voice transmission and asked.
"If there is a treasure, brother will naturally seize it and give it to you." Lan Yuanzi replied with a smile.
"Then brother will be in charge of seizing the treasure. Leave these eyesores to me. I will definitely kill them all." Lan Yan's smile was pure as she transmitted.
"These people are suitable as cannon fodder. There is no need to rush to kill them." Lan Yuanzi transmitted.
Hearing this, Lan Yan frowned and said reluctantly, "But if I don't kill them all, I will always have to pretend to be this ugly girl. I don't want that."
"If you kill them all, even if you return to your original appearance, who will you show it to?" Lan Yuanzi said with a smile.
"Of course it will be for brother, and only for brother. How can those ugly things be worthy of me?" Lan Yan said with a smile.
"Moreover, in brother's heart, you will always be the most beautiful woman in the world. It doesn't matter whether you change your appearance or not." Lan Yuanzi's eyes were gentle as he looked at the woman beside him and transmitted his voice.
The latter blushed when she heard this, and her bright eyes were like silk.
After some slight adjustments, the two groups came to the door that was overflowing with golden light, one in front and one at the back.
Jin Liu nodded and said, "Fellow Daoists, don't worry and move forward. We will hold the line at the back. There will be no problem."
Su Qian's eyes were cold, and her face was expressionless. No one could tell what she was thinking.
Yu Kuohai and Elder Yang looked at each other and nodded. They led Han Li and the others into the door.
The people of Worry-Free Pavilion also followed closely behind and walked in.
As soon as they passed through the door, they were engulfed by the dazzling golden light. Their figures disappeared directly, and even the aura they emitted became a little difficult to detect.
Han Li walked behind Yu Kuohai and Elder Yang. As soon as he stepped into the space behind the door, he felt his body tighten, and there was a strong binding force coming from all directions.
This binding force was different from the heavy pressure of the Earth Attribute and the viscosity of the Water Attribute. It was a kind of binding force that seemed to be entangled and pulled by extremely tough but ubiquitous metal threads.
Along with this, there were also gusts of bone-cutting golden wind that blew against their faces like willow leaf knives, cutting their cheeks and making them feel pain.
The golden light filled the surroundings and kept stimulating everyone's eyes, causing their vision to be a little blocked. It had already become a blur several hundred feet away, as if they were shrouded in a layer of hazy golden mist.
Vice Pavilion Leader Zhao noticed the strangeness of his surroundings and exclaimed, "What's going on? This feeling, could it be …"
Elder Yang was a little regretful and bitterly smiled as he said, "That fairy Su really was right. This really is a Metal Force Field."
After that, he turned his wrist, took out a golden bead, and put it in the front of his chest. Immediately, a golden arc of light bloomed from it, protecting his whole body.
Even with his cultivation level, he still needed a magic treasure to endure the effects of the Metal Force Field, let alone the others. They all revealed painful expressions and released protective spiritual light to resist the corrosion of this power.
Yu Kuohai formed a hand seal and used some kind of cultivation method. Golden lines appeared on his body and also blocked the effects of the Metal Force Field. However, the consumption of the celestial spiritual force in his body increased by several times.
"Such a powerful Metal Force Field, have you ever seen it before?
There must be a formation supporting it.
You guys quickly go check where the eye of the formation is and destroy it for me. "Yu Kuohai's expression slightly changed as he pointed at Han Li and the others.
Han Li was also affected by the Golden Force Field, but his physique was far superior to that of these people, so he naturally didn't feel much pain. However, in order to match his current status, he also bent over with furrowed brows and a pained expression.
Before Han Li could finish, Yu Kuohai rudely interrupted him, "In this metal force field, it will be difficult to move even a single step. Fellow Daoist Yu, it isn't that I don't want to help, but I truly have the heart to..."
"Less nonsense, hurry up and go.
If we don't remove this formation, we won't be able to take any treasures. We'll all die here. "Yu Kuohai angrily said.
"This … sigh …" Han Li pretended to sigh helplessly. He picked a direction and went to investigate.
In this Metal Force Field, although the power of one's divine sense was not completely useless, it was also greatly restricted. Even with the strength of Han Li's divine sense, he could only explore a radius of less than a thousand feet.
In addition, the Magic Eyes of the Ninth Hell were also restricted, so Han Li could not see the entire space behind the door.
After walking a hundred steps forward, he saw a thick golden stone pillar in front of him. There were countless runes carved on it, and it was still flashing with golden light. Strange fluctuations were being emitted from it.
"Could this be one of the formations of the Metal Force Field?" Han Li muttered to himself.
He walked up to the stone pillar and raised his hand to gently touch the pillar. He felt a sharp force penetrate his fingertips.
Han Li looked up the golden stone pillar and saw that the top of the pillar was buried in the golden light. He could not see the whole thing, but he could vaguely see that there seemed to be a strange beast with wings carved on it. The sharp thorns under its wings were exposed through the golden light.
Just as he was about to carefully examine the meaning of the runes, he suddenly heard a whistling sound above his head. The strange beast with wings was not a statue, but a living creature. It swooped down towards him.
Han Li's body immediately flashed as he hurtled back in retreat. The swooping mutant beast almost brushed past his body as it descended. The edges of its wings were shimmering with golden light, and it was imbued with an extremely sharp aura as it tore open a rift in the surrounding space.
Taking advantage of the turn, he saw the strange beast's appearance clearly. He discovered that it was shaped like a golden eagle. Although it was not big, the metal-attributed energy it contained was very powerful. It was another metal beast.
However, the metal-attributed aura of this metal beast was even stronger than the two ferocious metal tigers that Han Li had encountered before. When it was not moving, it had completely merged with its surroundings. Even Han Li did not notice anything unusual.
The golden eagle's attack missed. It tapped its wings on the ground and flipped up. It swept its wings towards Han Li, and a dazzling golden light slashed out, directly tearing through the void and flying towards him.
Han Li twisted his wrist, and a golden light flashed. A Bamboo Cloudswarm Sword appeared, blocking the golden light.
Clang!
The Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords trembled as they were struck, and the golden arcs of lightning coiling around them were reduced by half.
