"How was your harvest?" Han Li glanced at Xiao Bai and Lan Yan.
Xiao Bai waved her fist and said excitedly, "We came back with a full load. I didn't expect there to be so many treasures in Gui Lingzi's cave abode!"
Lan Yan's eyes flashed with a trace of excitement, but she quickly suppressed it. She took out a storage celestial device and handed it to Han Li with both hands. She said softly, "Friend Han, these are the things I found in the three rooms."
"Take one-tenth as your reward," Han Li said calmly without taking the storage celestial device.
"Thank you, Friend Han." Lan Yan's eyes flashed with excitement when she heard this.
The things in the storage celestial device were priceless. Even one-tenth was a huge fortune to her. It was something she didn't even dare to think about in the past.
"As for you, Xiao Bai …" Han Li looked at Xiao Bai.
"Master, I found these things. You can't have any ideas about them!" Xiao Bai covered the storage bracelet on her wrist.
"I know, but I need Immortal Meta Stones recently. You can take half of those things and give me the other half," Han Li said with a wry smile.
Xiao Bai cheered and took out another storage celestial device. She began to move the things inside.
"Master, there's something I need your help with," the Weeping Soul Beast suddenly said.
"What is it?" Han Li asked.
"Master, follow me," Weeping Soul said and turned to the black crystal coffin in the middle of the stone room.
Han Li remembered the crystal coffin and walked over.
He had forgotten about it because he was looking for the golden boy and the treasures in each room.
He looked into the coffin and his expression changed slightly.
There was a white skeleton in the crystal coffin. The skeleton was covered with black talismans. It looked very strange, especially the two black eye sockets of the skeleton. There were two spots of blood-red flames flashing in the eye sockets, emitting circles of blood-red light.
The whole skeleton exuded an extremely evil aura, as if it was the combination of all the evils in the world.
The Evil Corpse that had been suppressed in Han Li's body began to stir, as if it had been triggered. Han Li hurriedly averted his gaze and returned to normal.
"What a strange skeleton. Do you recognize it?" Han Li asked after calming himself down.
"If I'm not mistaken, this skeleton should be the Skeleton of Ten Thousand Evil. It's a collection of ten thousand people with evil natures who have committed all sorts of evil deeds. Their bodies and souls were refined using a secret technique. It'll be very helpful in slaying the Evil Zombie," Weeping Soul said excitedly.
"There's actually such a thing." Han Li raised his eyebrows when he saw this.
"Master, this thing is very useful to us. With this Skeleton of Ten Thousand Evil, it will be much easier for you, me, Whitey, and Jintong to kill the Evil Corpses.
However, this crystal coffin has been fixed to this place, and if I want to safely take it away without harming the Skeleton of All Evil within it, I'll have to break the formation around it. This formation is very powerful, so I'll need your help, Master, "Weeping Soul said.
Han Li nodded when he heard this, and said, "No problem. Go ahead and use your technique to take this thing away. I'll help you break the formation."
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Master. With the Du Tian God Lightning, it shouldn't be difficult to break this formation." Weeping Soul was overjoyed when it heard this, and it immediately began to cast its technique.
Thick black gas erupted from its body and fused into the formation on the ground.
The runes in the formation were stimulated, and they immediately shone brightly and began to whirl.
Eight black chains suddenly appeared around the crystal coffin, and they were connected to the formation on the ground below, firmly locking the crystal coffin in place. Each of the chains exuded an astonishing cold aura.
The Weeping Soul opened its mouth and spat out a ball of white light, which split into eight and fused into the eight black chains.
The eight black chains immediately became half black and half white, and the cold aura they exuded was greatly reduced.
Not only that, but a barrier appeared between the crystal coffin and the eight chains, separating the two.
"Master, now's the time! Cut these chains!" Weeping Soul yelled.
Han Li flicked his fingers expressionlessly upon hearing this, and eight streaks of golden light shot forth from his hand. These were none other than the eight Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords, and they struck the eight chains.
Bang bang bang!
The eight chains shattered, and the black crystal coffin abruptly radiated a dazzling black light as it shot forth from the ground.
The Weeping Soul was ecstatic to see this, and it made a grabbing motion with its hand. A massive black hand appeared out of thin air, and it caught the black crystal coffin.
At the same time, it waved its other hand, and a small crimson three-legged cauldron appeared. This was none other than the King Yama's Cauldron that Han Li had given her.
A swath of crimson light shot forth from the King Yama's Cauldron, and it enveloped the black crystal coffin. Light flashed, and the black crystal coffin disappeared without a trace, having been drawn into the King Yama's Cauldron.
"Thank you for your help, Master." The Weeping Soul's expression eased slightly before it expressed its gratitude to Han Li.
"It's nothing. Besides, this item is also useful to me, so there's no need to thank me," Han Li said lightly.
At this moment, Xiao Bai and Lan Yan also flew over, and they handed two storage magic tools to Han Li.
After Han Li received them, he probed them with his divine sense, and a trace of joy appeared on his face.
The treasures in these two storage magic tools were mostly spiritual herbs, demonic beast materials, and so on. The quantity was also extremely high, but it was a pity that there were none of the Immortal Meta Stones that Han Li wanted the most.
This was also normal. Immortal Meta Stones were light and portable, and they would definitely be carried around with them. Only those things that were rarely used and would occupy a lot of storage space would be placed in the cave abode.
Gui Lingzi's real treasures should be in the storage magic tool.
However, he didn't care about it. If he sold these things, he would be able to exchange them for seventy to eighty million Immortal Meta Stones.
"We've already been delayed for a long time. Let's go and chase after Qu Lin," Han Li said, and turned around to go back the way they came.
Weeping Soul and the others immediately followed, and the group quickly returned to the collapsed stone room.
The passage back was blocked by the collapsed boulders. They used their arts to remove the boulders and chased along the road. Soon, they arrived at a fork in the road.
Han Li immediately used the Ninth Secret Magic Eyes to explore the traces of spiritual power in this place, and he suddenly frowned.
There were very few traces of spiritual power here, and they were all left by him, Lan Yan, and Qu Lin when they passed by this place. However, there were no traces of Qu Lin returning at all. He didn't know what method he used to conceal his tracks, but his technique was actually so brilliant.
Moreover, Qu Lin had lured them into this trap, and Weeping Soul actually didn't notice his evil intentions. From this, it could be seen that Qu Lin had concealed himself very deeply.
Han Li snorted coldly in his heart. He was somewhat unwilling to give up and used the Ninth Secret Magic Eyes with all his strength. He wanted to see whether Qu Lin's concealment technique was more powerful, or his Ninth Secret Magic Eyes was more exquisite.
A faint purplish black light flickered in his eyes, faintly forming two vortexes as he looked at the passage in front.
A moment later, Han Li's face lit up with joy. His Ninth Secret Magic Eyes had finally caught a trace of extremely faint golden light in the passage, extending towards one of the passages.
This golden light was extremely faint and scattered. If it wasn't for the fact that his Ninth Secret Magic Eyes was close to completion, it would have been very difficult to discover it.
"Master, have you found Qu Lin's tracks?" the Weeping Soul asked.
"Yes, follow me." Han Li nodded and led the Weeping Soul and the others to follow the traces of the golden light.
In the blink of an eye, half a day passed. Han Li and the others were still in the underground passage.
These underground passages were like a dense spider web, extending in all directions. No one knew where they went.
At this moment, there was no longer a trace of cold aura in the underground space they were in. It was obvious that they had long since left the Ghost Valley, but there was no sign of an end in front of them.
Along the way, there were a few restrictions and obstacles in the passage, but they weren't very powerful. Moreover, most of them had been destroyed by others, so they didn't stop Han Li and the others.
"Lan Yan, do you know why there is such a long underground passage here?
What special use does it have? "Han Li asked Lan Yan.
"I didn't have a high status in the Nine Origin Temple in the past, so I've only been here a few times. I don't know the secrets of the temple," Lan Yan said with a wry smile.
Han Li nodded and didn't ask any more questions. He continued forward.
After flying forward for a while, streaks of golden light suddenly appeared in front of them, interweaving chaotically.
The golden light contained the fluctuations of the Laws of Metal, and there was also a majestic aura that was as majestic as a mountain.
A glint flashed through Han Li's eyes, and he stopped.
"Are we finally at the end?" The Weeping Soul and the others also stopped and stood behind Han Li.
"I don't know if we're at the end, but since there are changes ahead, we can't be careless. The few of you should continue to hide in the flower branch space in case anything happens.
I'll cast a technique to project the situation outside into the flower branch space, so don't worry, "Han Li said with a solemn expression. He waved a hand to open the entrance to the flower branch space.
"Alright, then you must be careful, Master," the Weeping Soul said and flew into the flower branch space.
Lan Yan followed closely behind. Only Xiao Bai was a little reluctant, but after glancing at Han Li, she also flew into the flower branch space.
After putting away the three of them, Han Li activated the black mask to conceal himself. He stealthily moved forward and soon reached the end of the passage.
At the end of the passage was a golden wall made of some kind of gold-like ore. The streaks of golden light were coming from the wall.
As he got closer, he could clearly sense the powerful Laws of Metal emanating from the wall.
"This is the Golden Rock of Heaven's End!" Han Li's eyes lit up.
The Golden Rock of Heaven's End was a metal-elemental material. Although it couldn't compare to the Heavenly Gold Diamond, it was still an extremely precious material. He didn't expect to see so many of them here. If he sold them all, it would be worth a fortune.
He then shook his head with a smile. Recently, he had been a little crazy about earning Immortal Meta Stones. He wanted to sell everything he saw. It wasn't good to be too greedy.
Han Li shook his head and calmed himself down. His gaze once again fell on a corner of the golden wall in front of him.
There was a hole about a foot wide there, and it extended forward. It looked like it had been bitten out.
The hole was curved, and he could only faintly see streaks of light coming from the other side. Clearly, there was another world on the other side of the wall.
There was a restriction set up on the inside of the wall. As soon as his divine sense approached, it was immediately repelled by an invisible force, making it impossible for him to probe the situation inside.
