Han Li looked on at the strange scenes taking place in the fortress with a hint of surprise in his heart.

The inside of the fortress seemed to be a place where the Nine Nether Race refined puppets. They used Dust World creatures and even people of other races to refine puppets. This kind of action couldn't be made public, so it was no wonder that they were guarded so tightly.

Moreover, the Nine Nether Race seemed to have mastered this strange method of refining puppets to the point of perfection and could do it in large quantities.

Although the Nine Nether Race had a small number of people, they were powerful. First, they could control Underworld Slaves, and second, they could refine puppets in large quantities. It was no wonder that they could become the ruling race of the Nine Nether Region.

He took a few glances and immediately retracted his divine sense back to the fortress. Then, he spread his divine sense in another direction and quickly arrived at a huge fortress.

This place was filled with prisons of different heights. They were densely packed together like a beehive.

Some of the prisons were used to imprison various Dust World Monsters, while others were used to imprison people of different races. They were naked, and their eyes were lifeless. Moreover, because these prisons were deliberately designed to be low, these people could only lie on the ground like monsters.

These were the 'raw materials' for refining puppets. There were thousands of them.

There was no lack of True Immortals and even Golden Immortals among them.

However, the prisons of these powerful existences were also specially made. They were abnormally sturdy and had all kinds of restrictions that would not allow them to escape.

Han Li had already spent a lot of time investigating the situation inside the fortress, so he quickly retracted his divine sense.

Shi Chuang Kong, Hu San, and the others naturally didn't know what Han Li had seen. Now that they had rested enough, they continued to move forward.

The five of them continued to hide carefully and quickly arrived at the northwest border of the Hundred Zang Region according to the route on the map.

Not far away, a huge tower was hanging on the wall. It was exactly the same as the map.

There was a faint black light above the corner tower, and it was enveloped by a layer of restriction. There were also many armored Netherworld Slaves standing nearby, and they seemed to be guarding this place.

Han Li and the others hid in a hidden place and looked at the wall in front of them.

At this point, the five of them relaxed. They had passed the most difficult part. Next, they only needed to use the same method again to pass through the city wall.

Han Li withdrew his gaze and said to Shi Chuankong, "Fellow Daoist Shi, I'll have to trouble you to use the Space Teleportation Technique to bring us over."

"No problem. But, Brother Fox, I need you to cast a spell to bring us to the vicinity of the city wall," Shi Chuankong nodded and said to Fox Three.

"Leave it to me." Fox Three nodded. Then, with a flick of his wrist, the round crystal ball appeared in his palm.

He chanted and pointed at the crystal ball. The crystal ball suddenly bloomed with a layer of seven-colored crystal light and enveloped the five of them.

After the seven-colored crystal light flashed slightly, Han Li and the others disappeared without a trace.

Fox Three waved his hand, and the group of five moved forward. Soon, they arrived at the base of the city wall.

Shi Chuankong made a series of hand seals, and at the same time, took out several Array Discs, and quickly arranged them on the ground. Soon, another Teleportation Array was arranged.

He raised his hand and waved. A silver light fell on the Teleportation Array, and the Teleportation Array suddenly lit up.

Magic Light waved his hands, and a black smoke-like baleful aura surged out. The baleful aura enveloped the Teleportation Array and sealed its aura.

But after the Teleportation Array lit up, the figures of the five of them swayed slightly. But, in the next moment, they returned to their original state.

Han Li and the others' complexions changed when they saw this, and they looked at Shi Chuankong.

Shi Chuankong's complexion also turned pale. But, he immediately realized something. He looked at the city wall, and his complexion sank.

"Brother Shi, what happened?" Hu San asked while activating the crystal ball to conceal their traces.

"Let's go back first."

Shi Chuankong didn't explain the reason. He waved his hand and put away the Array Discs and Array Discs on the ground. Then, he took the lead and walked towards the place where they were hiding.

The five of them looked at each other and hurriedly followed him. They soon returned.

"Fellow Daoist Shi, what happened just now?

Why did the teleportation fail? "Bai Liyan took the lead and asked.

"Could it be that a Space Restriction has been added to the restriction on the city wall?" Han Li suddenly thought of a possibility, and said.

"Fellow Daoist Shi also dabbles in Space Teleportation Secret Techniques?

Yes, that's right. The restriction on the city wall has been arranged with a layer of Space Restriction. Even my Space Teleportation Technique can't pass through it, "Shi Chuankong glanced at Han Li and said.

The others' complexions turned somewhat unsightly when they heard this.

The Hundred Treasure District was surrounded by layers of restrictions. So, there was no other way to enter the Luosheng District apart from Shi Chuankong's Space Teleportation Technique.

"It wasn't easy to reach this place. Are we going to fail at the last step?" Bai Liyan asked in a reluctant tone.

"That's not entirely the case. We only need to stop the Space Restriction inside the city wall," Shi Chuankong pondered for a moment, and slowly said.

"Stop the Space Restriction?

It's easier said than done. We don't even know where the core of the Space Restriction is, "Bai Liyan said with a frown.

Han Li glanced at Shi Chuankong and said, "Fellow Daoist Shi seems to have a card up his sleeve. I presume that you already have a clue, right?"

Bai Liyan, Hu San, and the others heard this, and looked at Shi Chuankong.

"I've just examined it, and I found some clues. The restriction on the city wall is very powerful. So, the core of the Space Restriction must be nearby. It's either in this corner tower or at the city gate," Shi Chuankong said as he looked in the direction of the city gate.

"In that case, let's split up. Brother Shi, Fellow Daoist Li, and I will go one way. Fellow Daoist Mo and Fellow Daoist Bai Liyan will go the other way. We'll sneak into the city gate and this corner tower respectively. We'll search for the core of the Space Restriction," Hu San said.

In terms of concealment and stealth, Hu San and Magic Light were the best among everyone present. So, it was indeed suitable for the two of them to split up.

No one objected when they heard this.

"It's fine for Fellow Daoist Bai Liyan and I to sneak into this corner tower, but if you go to the city gate, you might encounter the Grand Heavenly Immortal guarding this place. You must be careful," Magic Light reminded Han Li and the others.

"Don't worry, I've already made preparations. Don't be careless when you enter this corner tower.

Also, take this Lesser Teleportation Wheel. It can teleport over a short distance. Once we find the location of the Space Restriction, we'll meet up with it. "

Shi Chuankong said with a confident smile. Then, he took out an octagonal silver jade plate that was a foot in size and handed it to Magic Light.

"Fellow Daoist Shi is indeed a member of the Vast Origin House. We won't stand on ceremony then." Magic Light smiled and accepted the jade plate without any hesitation.

"Wait a moment. Even if we find the core of the Space Restriction, once we destroy it, we'll definitely be discovered. Then, it'll be exposed that someone has sneaked in and attracted the Grand Heavenly Immortal Realm's attention. I'm afraid it'll be difficult for us to avoid them," Han Li suddenly said.

When the others heard Han Li's words, they immediately thought of this problem and their faces sank.

"It's fine. As long as we find the core of the Space Restriction, I have a way to deal with it," Shi Chuankong said with a faint smile.

Han Li looked at Shi Chuankong in surprise, but did not say anything.

"In that case, we'll leave it to Fellow Daoist Shi," Hu San, Magic Light, and the others looked at each other and nodded.

The few of them discussed the details of splitting up before they immediately split up.

Han Li and the others sneaked toward the city gate. There weren't many Spirit Slaves patrolling near the city wall, so it didn't take long for the three of them to quietly arrive near the city gate.

Inside the huge opening, the two thick city gates were tightly shut.

There was a three-storey black hall built above the city gate. There were two smaller turrets on each side of the hall, and the three buildings were connected by a stone path.

The stone path was filled with armored Spirit Slaves holding weapons in their hands, patrolling back and forth.

The two sides of the city gate were also filled with Spirit Slave soldiers, so tightly that not even a drop of water could pass through.

The situation here was almost exactly the same as the situation at the city gate.

Han Li looked at the palace and turrets above the city wall with a solemn expression.

This time was different from the Underworld District. Although he knew that he had many tricks up his sleeves, he couldn't help but feel his palms sweating when he sneaked into the palace that might have a Grand Heavenly Immortal.

"Brother Shi, do you really have a way to avoid the detection of a Grand Heavenly Immortal?" Hu San stopped smiling and looked at Shi Chuankong.

He was captured by a Grand Heavenly Immortal when he was caught stealing treasures from the Nirvana Shark Clan. He had a deep understanding of how terrifying a Grand Heavenly Immortal was.

"Although I'm not a hundred percent sure, I'm seventy to eighty percent sure." Shi Chuankong smiled and took out three white talismans from his sleeve.

This talisman was three inches long and two fingers wide, and it was inscribed with extremely fine black colored markings that condensed into an extremely complicated pattern. Two small ancient characters could be faintly seen within the pattern, and it was precisely the two words' Heaven Evasion. '

The talismans flickered with black and white lights, but they didn't emit any aura. Han Li and Hu San couldn't detect anything with their divine sense, so they couldn't help but be shocked.

"This is a Mustard Heaven Evasion Talisman refined by a Grand Heavenly Immortal from the Vast Origin House. It's extremely profound. As long as a Grand Heavenly Immortal doesn't go all out, this talisman can deceive them," Shi Chuankong said as he handed two talismans to Han Li and Hu San.

"An immortal talisman refined by a Grand Heavenly Immortal!" Hu San and Han Li were shocked.

"Fellow Daoist Shi, this talisman is too precious. It's not good for us to take it for free. May I know what we should exchange for it?" Han Li didn't take it.

"What are you talking about, Fellow Daoist Li? If it wasn't for your help, I would've been buried in the Dust World. A mere talisman is nothing. The most important thing right now is to break the spatial restriction here, enter the Soul Cleansing Area, and find the Evil Cleansing Pool." Shi Chuankong smiled.

"Fellow Daoist Li, there's no need to be polite with him. I've known this kid for a long time. He's rich, so even a single hair of his is worth more than ours. It's a waste not to take his things." Hu San took the talisman and said to Han Li.

"Fellow Daoist Li is a sincere gentleman. Do you think everyone is as thick-skinned as you?" Shi Chuankong glanced at Hu San and snorted.

Hu San chuckled. He wasn't angry at this.

"In that case, I won't be polite." Han Li nodded and took the talisman.
