There were a total of nine items that seemed to be offered as tributes. They were basically spiritual materials, and each of them emitted a shocking aura.
"That black lotus is the Nether Water Fairy Lotus!
It's one of the ten great fairy lotuses of the True Immortal World. Not only can one's cultivation improve greatly after consuming it, but it can also transform one's physical body into the Nether Water Fairy Body. It'll be ten times easier to comprehend the laws of water than ordinary cultivators. "
"That's the Heaven Gold Diamond!
It's rumored to be a metal-attribute treasure. Immortal artifacts refined from it are indestructible! "
"Am I seeing things? That blue bottle contains the essence of Xuanzhen. It's so pure, and there's so much of it. It's enough for two people to advance to the Zenith Heaven Realm!"
"And that …"
Everyone was stunned when they saw the items on the stone table. Then, there was chaos. Those who recognized the items on the table cried out in shock.
Han Li looked at the items on the stone table. A fiery light flashed in his eyes, but he frowned when he looked at the walls and ground around the stone table.
Jin Liu stared at the Nether Water Fairy Lotus and the Heaven Gold Diamond beside it with a fiery gaze. He strode forward.
"Daoist Jin, wait!"
At this moment, there was a blur in front of him. A figure appeared out of thin air and blocked his way. It was Han Li.
"Daoist Shi, what are you doing?"
Jin Liu thought that Han Li wanted to snatch the Nether Water Fairy Lotus from him. He shouted with a dark expression. At the same time, he moved and was about to pounce forward to snatch the treasure.
"Take a look at the situation around the stone table," Han Li indifferently said.
Jin Liu's brows twitched when he heard that. He stopped in shock and looked around. His expression changed slightly.
There were seven dark red patterns carved on the walls around the stone table. Each of them was about a foot long. The lines were thick, and the traces of time could be seen on the edges. It revealed a desolate feeling.
The seven patterns seemed to be the images of seven gods. However, they didn't look like righteous gods. They all looked strange. Some had three heads and six arms, some had a human body and a beast's head. They gave off an evil and fierce feeling. They should be evil gods.
The seven patterns were arranged on the surrounding walls and floor according to a certain pattern. However, the dark red patterns were rather dim, and the surrounding materials used for the walls were also faintly red, so it was very difficult to notice.
Some of the others were originally eager to try, but after hearing Han Li's words, they all stopped in their tracks and looked around. Soon, they also noticed the seven patterns on the wall.
"It looks like some kind of restrictive magic array," Wen Zhong muttered as he carefully examined the seven patterns.
The others looked at each other in dismay. For a moment, no one spoke, as if they did not recognize him.
"Instead of making wild guesses, why don't we give it a try and find out?" Jin Liu said and waved his hand.
"Jin Liu, don't be rash." Su Miaqian wanted to stop Jin Liu, but it was too late.
A streak of blue light flew out of Jin Liu's sleeve and swept toward the stone table.
Just as the blue light approached the stone table, the seven patterns immediately shone brightly. Rays of blood-red light blossomed from within, condensing into a layer of blood-red light screen.
At the same time, the light screen fluctuated, and a huge head suddenly appeared. It was one of the seven Fierce God patterns. It opened its mouth and swallowed the blue light.
After the Fierce God's head swallowed the blue light, it did not immediately disappear. Instead, it roared at Han Li and the others, as if it wanted to break free from the shackles of the blood-red light screen and rush out to swallow Han Li and the others.
A violent and ferocious thought exploded from the Fierce God's head and was transmitted into the minds of everyone present!
Everyone's eyes turned red, and the scene of heads piling up into a mountain, blood flowing into a river, and a thousand miles of red land appeared in their minds. Boundless murderous intent swallowed their souls!
Fortunately, the people present at the moment had high cultivation bases, and the power of their souls was also very strong, so they quickly dissolved this murderous intent.
The Fierce God's head roared a few more times, but in the end, it still could not break free from the shackles of the blood-red light screen, and retreated into the light screen. The blood-red light screen then flashed twice and disappeared without a trace.
When Han Li saw this scene, his eyes flickered slightly.
Although he did not recognize this blood-red formation, he could see some clues. This formation seemed to be some kind of Blood Dao Formation, and it was quite similar to the Weeping Blood Formation in the Jilin Space Realm, but it had many more murderous changes.
As for how to break it, he was also at a loss.
"What a powerful murderous formation. Looks like it's impossible to get the treasures inside without putting in some effort," Lei Yuce muttered.
"Hmph!
Who cares what kind of murderous formation it is, with so many of us here, I don't believe that we can't break it. "
Jin Liu snorted and said, his eyes staring at the treasures on the stone table. His eyes were full of greed, and he could not wait to immediately take all the treasures into his own pocket.
Although the method that Jin Liu said to break the formation was a little rough, the others nodded one after another.
This method was the simplest, and they did not have too much time to waste here.
When Han Li heard that, he frowned slightly.
Although he did not see through this blood-red formation, this method of breaking the formation with brute force probably would not work.
"If you guys want to get the treasures inside, it's best not to break the formation with brute force." A voice suddenly sounded, and it was Lan Yan who had been silent all this while.
When the others heard that, they were shocked and looked at Lan Yan.
"What does Daoist Lan mean? Do you recognize this formation?" Lei Yuce asked with a joyful expression.
"You can say that. I have some knowledge in the Dao of Formations, and I've seen the records of this formation in an ancient book.
This formation is called the Seven Slaughter Blood God Formation, and it belongs to the Blood Dao Formation. It contains the power of the Blood Dao's Seven Ferocious Gods. If you don't know the method and break it with brute force, the power of the Seven Ferocious Gods in the blood formation will collide with each other and self-destruct. Although I don't know how powerful the explosion is, it's definitely not a problem to destroy the treasures inside, "Lan Yan said indifferently.
Han Li raised his eyebrows, and a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes.
When the others heard that, their expressions changed.
Jin Liu's expression darkened. He was impulsive and almost made a huge mistake.
Actually, he couldn't be blamed. The Nether Water Fairy Lotus was extremely compatible with his cultivation method. As long as he could get it, he was confident that he could break through the bottleneck in front of him.
And the Heaven Gold Diamond was something that he had desired for many years, and it was very useful to him. Previously, when Han Li and the others entered the golden door first, the metal-type vitality inside was extremely dense, and it was possible that one or two Heaven Gold Diamonds could be nurtured.
Later on, when he targeted Han Li on the second level, he suspected that Han Li had this treasure on him. He didn't expect to encounter it here.
"Since Daoist Lan recognizes this formation, you must know the method to break it. Please don't hesitate to teach me," Lei Yuce looked at Lan Yan and said sincerely.
"Daoist Lei wants me to help for free?" Lan Yan smiled and said softly.
"Daoist Lan wants some reward?
How about this, after we break this formation, Daoist Lan can choose one of these treasures first as the price for helping. How about it? "Lei Yuce was startled, but he immediately said.
The others were also determined to get the treasures inside. Hearing this, their expressions changed slightly, but they didn't say anything.
"I can help you break this Seven Kill Blood God Formation, but I don't want the treasures inside. Instead, I want something else," Lan Yan said, then glanced at Han Li.
Han Li noticed Lan Yan's action, but his expression didn't change.
"Oh, what does Daoist Lan want?" Lei Yuce was startled again and asked.
"My Senior Brother is now in the hands of Daoist Shi. I want Daoist Shi to release him," Lan Yan looked at Han Li and said slowly.
"Your Senior Brother …" Lei Yuce's expression changed, and Lan Yuanzi's figure appeared in his mind. He then looked at Han Li.
When the others heard Lan Yan's words, they also looked at Han Li.
Han Li immediately understood Lan Yan's intention. She wanted to use this opportunity to force him to hand over Lan Yuanzi. She was very good at seizing the opportunity.
He secretly sneered, but didn't say anything. He stood to one side with his hands clasped behind his back. He felt a little strange. How did Lan Yan know that he didn't kill Lan Yuanzi, but instead imprisoned him?
"Daoist Shi, is Daoist Lan's Senior Brother in your hands?" Lei Yuce looked at Han Li and asked.
"Yes, this Daoist Lan and her Senior Brother joined forces to deal with me. I captured them and imprisoned them," Han Li said indifferently.
Ever since Su Aiqian met Lan Yan on this level, she had guessed that there might be a conflict between her and Han Li. Now that she heard Han Li's words, she secretly thought that it was true.
Then, the woman's eyes kept wandering between Han Li and Lan Yan, and no one knew what she was thinking.
Although Lei Yuce had guessed that there was a conflict between the three of them, he didn't expect it to be so intense. His heart sank.
"I don't know what grievances there are between the three of you, but now that we are all in the same dangerous situation, we need to work together to move forward. Can Daoist Shi release Daoist Lan's Senior Brother?" He muttered in his heart, but he looked sincerely at Han Li and acted like a peacemaker.
"Daoist Lei, there is a deep hatred between the two of them. If I release her Senior Brother, what if they attack me again?" Han Li replied coldly.
"Daoist Lan, what do you say?" Lei Yuce felt that Han Li's words made sense. He frowned and turned to Lan Yan.
"As long as Daoist Shi releases my Senior Brother, I can swear that I won't attack you in this secret territory. Moreover, Daoist Shi's strength is far greater than mine and my Senior Brother's. Why would we do such an unwise thing?" Lan Yan immediately said.
"I don't believe in oaths. Even if it's an oath made by one's inner demons, there are ways to break it.
I will never put my safety in the hands of others. Don't mention this again. "Han Li shook his head.
Although he had defeated Lan Yuanzi and Lan Yan, he felt that the Jiuyuan Temple was still hunting him. There was an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart, so he had captured Lan Yuanzi instead of killing him.
With Lan Yuanzi as his trump card, Lan Yan wouldn't dare to do anything to him. How could she be willing to hand him over?
"Daoist Shi, Daoist Lan's words are enough to show her sincerity. You are still holding on to your past grievances. As a man, you are a little too petty.
Moreover, we have put aside our grievances and joined forces. What you are doing now is openly opposing us. You are looking down on what we have said before. "
Jin Liu was eager to break the restriction. Coupled with his dislike of Han Li, he naturally stood on Lan Yan's side. His words exerted pressure on Han Li.
Han Li frowned and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
He had saved Jin Liu before, but he didn't expect this person to not be grateful at all. Instead, he was so ungrateful. It was really despicable.
