Chapter 683

About half a month later.

Han Li and Immortal Flame flew above a sparkling lake.

The two stood in the air and looked ahead at the same time with a frown.

The void there was once again torn apart by countless dense spatial cracks. Even the lake below was cut into two halves. The edges were blocked by an invisible barrier, and a tall wall of water was erected.

On the other side of these spatial rifts floated pieces of land of different sizes, as well as huge isolated mountains. White jade palaces were densely distributed on top of them, but most of them showed signs of damage. Some even had half of the mountain walls collapsed, but one could still vaguely see the prosperity of the past.

Han Li looked at the floating mountains and the white square. He couldn't help but have a strange feeling of déjà vu. While he was in a daze, he heard Hot Flame Immortal Venerable suddenly said,

"Mr. Li, it seems that we can't go forward. I'm afraid we have to find another way."

"Mr. Hot Flame, do you remember where that continent used to be?" Han Li didn't answer him and changed the topic.

"That seems to be Martial Uncle Muyan's Dual Life Palace. It's also the most important place in the entire sect apart from the Truth Palace.

Now the entire space is shattered and chaotic. Whether it is … I can't say for sure. "Hot Flame Immortal Venerable was slightly startled. He looked in that direction for a moment and said hesitantly.

Hearing this, Han Li confirmed in his heart that this was the place where he traveled through time and space to witness the destruction of Truth Sect. It was also the place where he hid Muyan's corpse.

"Since it's an important place, we have to go take a look. What if the" Major Five Elements Fantasy Art "is hidden here?" Han Li pondered for a moment and said.

"That being said, we can't go there anymore.

Let's go to other places to take a look. Maybe there's a way. "Hot Flame Immortal Venerable said hesitantly.

"There's no need to be so troublesome. Although the spatial cracks here are dense, it's not completely impossible. Look over there, isn't there a passage that connects to the continent over there?"

Upon hearing this, Han Li looked up again and shook his head as he pointed in a certain direction. "That's right," he said.

Hot Flame Immortal Monarch looked in the direction of his finger and saw that at the edge of the lake several thousand meters away, there was a water pillar about ten meters in diameter extending outwards like a water bridge, connecting to a piece of land several dozen kilometers away.

"Fellow Daoist Li, are you joking?

That stream of water was surrounded by spatial fissures, and if one was the slightest bit careless, they would be swallowed up.

Moreover, the end of it is also cut off by the spatial barrier, it doesn't really connect to that area. Even if we can pass through safely, it will be a dead end. Why should we take this risk? "Hot Flame Immortal Venerable asked in confusion.

"Of course, we have to take the risk. If we look for another path now, we may not be able to find it. Secondly, it will waste too much time. It's better to go through here." Han Li's eyes narrowed as he slowly said.

Previously, he had used this method to successfully cross different continents, so he was more or less confident.

Seeing his expression, Hot Flame Immortal Venerable knew that it was useless to persuade him. After thinking for a while, he didn't say anything against it. However, his gaze towards Han Li was still a bit hesitant.

"Later, we will sneak through the water. When we reach the edge, I will find a way to open the spatial barrier and we will pass through in one go." Han Li urged.

"Fellow Daoist Li, are you really confident that you can break the barrier and let us pass through without affecting the spatial fissures?" Hot Flame Immortal Venerable raised his brows and asked doubtfully.

"The spatial barrier here is many times weaker than the Immortal Domain outside. It won't be difficult to break it. As long as we are fast enough, we have at least 70% confidence." Han Li's lips twitched, revealing a smile.

"This …" Hot Flame Immortal Venerable was speechless.

However, since things had come to this, he could only gamble with Han Li.

After the two finished their preparations, they flew down into the lake below. Like two fishes, they swam forward in the waterway, heading straight for the continent on the other side.

After entering the waterway, the two of them felt as if their hearts were in their throats. They slowed down and suppressed the fluctuations of spiritual energy around them to the extreme. They were afraid of pulling the spatial cracks and causing a disaster. They were almost like two ordinary people with mortal bodies, slowly swimming forward.

It took them more than an hour to cross the short distance of a few dozen li.

As they approached the barrier, Han Li's eyes flickered with purple light. He flipped his palm and took out the green gourd. He tilted the mouth of the gourd to the front, then turned to look at Hot Flame Immortal Venerable, reminding him to get ready.

Next, he made a hand seal and slammed the bottom of the gourd. The mouth of the gourd suddenly bloomed with green light, and a thunderous sound came from inside.

Immediately afterward, an Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Sword burst out from the green vortex at the mouth of the gourd. It turned into a blurry green sword shadow and pierced the spatial barrier in front of them.

"Rumble!"

A violent rumble came. The spatial barrier had yet to break, but the lake water in the waterway was violently shaken by the momentum, sweeping up two powerful waves to both sides.

The surrounding space also seemed to have been torn apart by this enormous force, and the already fragile equilibrium was instantly shattered. Several spatial rifts immediately began to expand in all directions, devouring the surrounding lake water as they came crashing down toward Han Li and Liu Yue.

Seeing this, Hot Flame Immortal Venerable's expression changed greatly. He quickly summoned the ancient golden mirror and activated it with all his strength.

A large golden light burst out, forming a golden zone around Han Li and Hot Flame Immortal Venerable. The expansion of the spatial cracks slowed down a lot, but it did not stop completely.

Right at that moment, the rumbling sounds from the spatial barrier up ahead disappeared, followed by a cracking sound. The Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Sword pierced through the barrier, and a spatial passageway that was only half the height of a person suddenly appeared.

Han Li's eyes flickered. He grabbed Hot Flame Immortal Venerable's collar and jumped into the passage.

After passing through his body, Han Li didn't stop. Instead, he summoned back his Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords and continued onward for over 10,000 feet. Only then did he come to a halt and turn around.

He saw that the spatial passage they created was still open and did not close immediately. The waterway inside had been completely swallowed by the spatial cracks, and there were traces of black cracks extending into the passage.

But fortunately, the cracks that extended in were only extremely small cracks, not enough to expand the passage.

After a while, Han Li saw the passage slowly close and finally closed completely. He heaved a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, Daoist Hot Flame, for resisting for a moment …" He put away the Mysterious Heaven Gourd and looked at Hot Flame Immortal Venerable with a smile.

"Daoist Hot Flame, I can see that it is not a coincidence that you have such abilities and endless treasures." Hot Flame Immortal Venerable still had a lingering fear in his heart. His face was a little pale, and he said with a wry smile.

"Daoist Hot Flame is exaggerating, it was just a coincidence." Han Li said with a smile.

After resting for a while, the two walked along the white square scattered with rocks and soon saw the ruins of a palace that occupied a very large area.

Unlike the ruins they had seen before, most of the palaces here had severe burn marks. Many of the remaining palace walls had signs of being melted by the flames, but there were no corpses to be seen. It seemed that they had all been incinerated.

Hot Flame Immortal Venerable sighed and said, "I was not mistaken, this is indeed the ruins of the Two-Life Palace.

Most of the sect's affairs were handled by Martial Uncle Muyan, so his Twin-Life Palace was the busiest place in the sect, but now it seems to be the most damaged. "Hot Flame Immortal Venerable sighed after looking around for a while.

Han Li vaguely remembered that when he witnessed the war back then, Dao Ancestor Time's earth-shattering attack was indeed not too far from here. It was likely that the center of the battlefield was not far from here, so it was not surprising that this place was severely damaged.

Arriving near the palace, Han Li looked around and carefully searched with the remaining information in his memory.

After a while, his gaze fell on a pile of scattered bricks and stones, and he stopped in his tracks.

Then, purple light flashed in his eyes as he carefully looked over there.

Seeing this, Hot Flame Immortal Venerable also stopped and quietly waited for him to find something.

"Daoist Hot Flame, there seems to be something under this mound …" Han Li pretended to ponder and said.

"Something?

Is it a hidden underground palace? "Hot Flame Immortal Venerable raised his brows and asked.

"Doesn't look like it … Let's dig down and see." Han Li said.

Then, the two of them lit up and dug deep under the mound.

After a long time, the two of them flew out from underground and landed on the ground.

Han Li was empty-handed, but Hot Flame Immortal Venerable was carrying a corpse on his back.

The corpse was wearing a tattered yellow robe, tall and thin, with straw-like yellow hair on his head and wrinkled skin on his face. It was a treeman that looked like a wood spirit. It was Muyan!

Compared to the Muyan Han Li saw when he transmigrated, this corpse was almost the same as before, but the yellow robe was rotten and the color of the body was even more withered. It looked like a piece of dead wood that had been exposed to the sun for many days.

"Daoist Li's Spirit Eye Divine Ability is really amazing. Martial Uncle Muyan's corpse is buried so deep, but you can still detect it. It's really incredible." Hot Flame Immortal Venerable tidied up the corpse's clothes and said.

Han Li thought that if he hadn't already known that there were corpses hidden here, he wouldn't have been able to discover Mu Yan's corpse that he had buried in the past due to the suppression of spiritual sense in the ruins.

"I don't know why, but I suddenly sensed something when I got here and subconsciously looked there." Han Li pretended to be confused and said.

"In that case, it's fate." Hot Flame Immortal Venerable said.

"How is it, is the Great Five Elements Fantasy Art with Senior Muyan?" Han Li knew it was impossible, but he still asked.

"Of course not with Martial Uncle Muyan, but it's possible that it's hidden in his Dual Life Palace." Hot Flame Immortal Venerable glanced at the completely collapsed palace far away and said.

With that said, he carried Mu Yan's corpse on his back and rushed towards the hall with Han Li.

In the heavily damaged main hall, not a single wooden structure was left. The remaining bricks and broken walls had also been burned and melted to the point where it was difficult to maintain their shape.

Hot Flame Immortal Venerable came to a half brick wall in the back hall, raised his hand, and swept away the dust and ashes on the wall, revealing a strange pattern that looked like a tree ring. He was pleasantly surprised: "There really is …"

Seeing Han Li's puzzled look, he explained: "This is the mark of a secret room. Master's Liuhuo Palace also has one, I didn't expect Martial Uncle to have one here too. Even the location is the same."

"Are they very close?" Han Li's eyes narrowed slightly and asked casually.

"Well … Martial Uncle Muyan has a fiery temper, in fact, he doesn't get along with my master.

But this is only compared to the other martial uncles, they are still very close. "Hot Flame Immortal Venerable said.

Han Li nodded silently and did not say anything.

Hot Flame Immortal Venerable picked up one of Muyan's corpse's palm and pressed it on the mark. He poured his Immortal Spiritual Force into it. Muyan's withered palm lit up with a green light, like a withered tree that had regained some of its color.

Soon, the green light on the mark shone brightly and a green light gate as tall as a person appeared.

Hot Flame Immortal Venerable saw this and stopped the infusion of Immortal Spiritual Force. The withered palm returned to its withered color.

Then, he looked back at Han Li and signaled him to follow him. He then stepped into the light gate with Muyan's corpse on his back.

Han Li hesitated for a moment, then followed him into the light gate.

After a moment of dizziness, the two figures appeared in a huge underground palace.
