Just as Han Li and Lan Yan passed through the restriction, spatial fluctuations erupted outside the entrance of Golden Jade Pass, following which a streak of dark red light shot forth from thin air, flying through the crack in the restriction at an extremely fast speed.

"Oh no, close the exit!" Elder Qi's expression changed and he immediately activated the golden token.

A ray of golden light shot out from the token and entered the light screen of the restriction.

Almost at the same time, the other eight people also activated the golden flags in their hands. The exit on the Golden Jade Pass quickly closed.

At the same time, Elder Qi opened his mouth and spat out two rays of white light. They turned into two giant white swords that emitted a monstrous chill. Icicles appeared in the Void nearby.

The huge white sword was extremely fast, creating numerous afterimages. It instantly caught up with the dark red light and slashed down fiercely in a crisscrossed manner.

However, the dark red light suddenly brightened and circles of dark red light rippled out from it.

When the two giant white swords came into contact with the dark red light ripples, they immediately suffered a heavy blow. The white light on the giant swords was like ice meeting fire. It quickly dissipated and the two giant swords were directly shaken off.

The dark red light flashed and a girl in a red robe appeared. She had a curvaceous figure and a picturesque face. It was Jiao San.

Lan Yan was also shocked by the scene in front of her. She stared blankly at the scene in front of her.

However, Han Li's expression was very calm. It was as if he had already expected this.

Jiao San glanced in Han Li's direction and his lips curled into a barely detectable smile. At the same time, he waved his hand.

A silver door of light appeared in the void beside her, and figures streamed out from it. They were the people of the Samsara Temple, and there were quite a few of them. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of them had flown out, and there were others flying out from the door of light as well.

"Go, take control of the Golden Jade Pass!" Jiao San raised her hand and waved.

The people of the Samsara Hall all rushed towards Elder Qi and the others. All kinds of lights shot out like rain.

Seeing this, Elder Qi's eyes almost popped out of their sockets. He had no choice but to fight.

Fortunately, there were many disciples of the Jiuyuan Temple guarding the Golden Jade Pass. There were more than a thousand of them.

In the blink of an eye, the two groups of people were locked in battle, and they emitted rumbling that shook the heavens.

"Let's go!" Han Li pulled Lan Yan, who was still in a daze, and flew into the distance.

"Hehe, Friend Han, thank you for your help. Once this mission is completed, I will reward you handsomely." Jiao San's laughter sounded in Han Li's mind.

Han Li ignored him and flew forward with Lan Yan. Very quickly, they disappeared into the distance. No one noticed them.

"Friend Han, did you already know that those from the Samsara Temple would appear?" Lan Yan asked.

"Fellow Daoist Lan, sometimes it's best not to ask what you shouldn't ask. Knowing too much won't do you any good," Han Li replied coldly, but his mind was racing.

It turned out that Jiao San had been following them secretly. He knew that Meng Qi wanted to rescue Jintong and would definitely go to the Inner Temple. So he used the time when they were in the Inner Temple to seize the Golden Jade Pass. It was a good plan.

It seemed that there was something strange about the mask that she had asked someone to pass to him.

"Then let's take this opportunity to rescue them.

But where is Jintong now?

I am more familiar with the situation in the Jiuyuan Temple. I can lead the way for you. "Lan Yan saw that Han Li was a little unhappy and quickly changed the topic.

"According to the information I received, Jintong is imprisoned in the Ghost Valley of the Inner Temple. This is the map of the Inner Temple." Han Li took out the jade amulet and handed it to Lan Yan.

"Ghost Valley?

As far as I know, that is the cultivation place of one of the Four Great Divine Ambassadors, Gui Lingzi. "Lan Yan was surprised.

"Gui Lingzi's territory?" Han Li frowned slightly, but soon felt relieved.

Jintong was captured by Gui Lingzi, so it was reasonable that he was imprisoned in Gui Lingzi's territory.

"Gui Lingzi's cultivation has reached the Middle-stage of the Zenith Heaven Realm and he cultivates the extremely strange Law of Ghost Dao. In terms of strength, he is the strongest among the Four Great Divine Ambassadors.

Although he may not be in the Ghost Valley at the moment due to the attack of the Samsara Temple, we still have to prepare for the worst. "Lan Yan glanced at Han Li and could not help but remind him.

"Of course. Don't worry, I don't mean to look down on Gui Lingzi." Han Li chuckled and then waved his hand.

A gust of black gas emerged from his hand and enveloped the two of them.

The two of them suddenly disappeared in a flash and turned into a group of invisible shadows, flying forward rapidly.

Han Li's black mask could not only be used on himself, but it could also be used on the places around him as long as they were not too far away.

Lan Yan looked around and a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes, but she quickly recovered and focused on leading the way.

There were all kinds of magnificent buildings on the exterior of the Jiuyuan Temple, giving people a magnificent atmosphere.

However, there were fewer buildings in the Inner Temple. The mountains and valleys were also in a natural state, but the Qi of Heaven and Earth here was much richer than the exterior.

Although there were some restrictions activated in the Inner Temple, there were not as many as the exterior. Perhaps it was because the people of the Jiuyuan Temple felt that the inescapable restrictions on the exterior and the super formation at the Golden Jade Pass were enough.

This was also convenient for Han Li and Lan Yan. They moved forward quickly.

Half a day later, the two of them came to the vicinity of a valley and quietly landed.

The ground and rocks around the valley were pitch-black in color, and the sky above the valley was shrouded by a thick layer of dark clouds that slowly flowed in the air like water clouds. Looking at the thick black color, it was likely that it contained a deadly poison.

A bone-piercingly cold wind surged out from the valley, emitting ear-piercing whistling sounds. It fluctuated between high and low, rising and falling in succession, causing one's heart to palpitate with fear. There was even a ruthless and ferocious intent roiling within the cold wind, causing this place to seem like a realm of ghosts in the netherworld.

Han Li and Lan Yan were far away, but they could still feel the ferocious Ghost Qi from the valley, as if countless cold steel needles were stabbing into their bodies.

Fortunately, the two of them had high cultivation and could still withstand it.

"This is the Ghost Valley?" Han Li looked around and asked.

"Yes, although I've never been here, I've heard of the situation here. It's exactly such a ghastly scene, and the map points to this place. It can't be wrong." Lan Yan said with certainty.

Han Li nodded and closed his eyes, trying to sense the existence of Jin Tong.

After a long time, he opened his eyes and frowned.

"Can't you sense his aura?" Lan Yan asked.

Han Li nodded slightly, his face a little gloomy.

He couldn't sense the existence of Jin Tong in Gold City before, perhaps because the distance was too far. Now that he was so close, he still couldn't sense Jin Tong, which was really strange.

Was Jin Tong in some kind of seal that could isolate sensing?

Or was the information from the Samsara Temple wrong?

The Ghost Qi in the valley was so strong that even he was quite afraid of it, not to mention that there might be a Middle-stage Zenith Heaven Realm Ghost Lingzi inside.

"Master, it's better not to enter the Ghost Valley rashly. Let's first confirm whether Jin Tong is inside. The information from the Samsara Temple might not be accurate." The Weeping Soul's voice sounded in Han Li's mind.

Han Li nodded slowly.

"Master, let me out. I've been with Big Sister for a long time and I can sense her," Little White suddenly said.

"Alright." Han Li waved his hand and summoned Little White from the branch space.

Little White closed its eyes and sat down. Its body was faintly glowing with white light, and a ball of ethereal crystal light appeared between its eyebrows.

"No, I can't sense Big Sister's aura either." After a while, Little White opened its eyes and shook its head.

Han Li wasn't too surprised. Jin Tong was a spirit beast that he had raised. If he couldn't sense it, it was naturally impossible for Little White to sense it.

"Master, what should we do now?" Little White asked anxiously.

"It's okay. Although we can't sense Jin Tong, there's someone who can." Han Li smiled slightly and then made a gesture with his hands.

The restriction around the branch space quickly dissipated, and a figure flew out and landed on the ground. It was Qu Lin.

At this moment, Han Li waved his hand again and directly summoned Qu Lin out of the branch space.

Qu Lin's expression was very ugly. He looked around and then said to Han Li in a deep voice, "Friend Han, I'm traveling with you. I'm not going to be treated as a prisoner and locked up along the way."

"My apologies. The Weeping Soul has been a little sensitive along the way. I apologize on her behalf." Han Li clasped his hands together.

"Hmph!

What is this place? "

Qu Lin snorted coldly, but he didn't care about the matter anymore. He looked around again and asked.

"This is inside the Nine Yuan Temple. Fellow Qu, don't casually use your divine sense to investigate. Otherwise, you'll be discovered," Han Li said indifferently.

"Oh, if I remember correctly, Friend Han is currently being hunted by the Nine Yuan Temple, right?

Qu Lin's expression changed slightly upon hearing this before he cast a meaningful glance at Han Li, and his expression changed slightly upon hearing this before he took a deep look at Han Li.

"There's something I need to deal with here." Han Li smiled faintly. He didn't tell Qu Lin about the Samsara Temple's attack on the Nine Yuan Temple.

"Then, Friend Han, there should be a reason why you let me out now, right?" Qu Lin's eyes rolled and he asked.

"Han does have something to trouble you with. According to the information I received, a Golden Immortal Devourer might be hiding in the valley up ahead. However, the valley is heavily restricted and I can't sense the aura of the Golden Immortal Devourer. Since you are of the same species, I would like to ask you to help us sense if the Golden Immortal Devourer is in the valley up ahead," Han Li said. He didn't tell Qu Lin about Jin Tong.

"There's a Golden Immortal Devourer here?

Does Friend Han also want to capture it? "Qu Lin's eyes lit up and then he asked suspiciously.

"The Golden Immortal Devourer and Han have crossed paths before. It snatched something from me. Han needs to find it and take it back," Han Li said with a laugh.

"… Haha, I see. It's not difficult to sense if the Golden Immortal Devourer is in the valley up ahead."

Qu Lin stared at Han Li for a moment and suddenly agreed with a laugh. He then closed his eyes and his body flashed with golden light.

After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes and a trace of joy flashed in his eyes.

"Yes, there is indeed a Golden Immortal Devourer in the valley up ahead. However, it is not above ground, but underground," Qu Lin said.
