Chapter 959

Before Han Li could finish cursing, he felt his body turn upside down. The heat from the Sulphuric Flame Blood Cloud suddenly erupted and turned into countless streams of heat that instantly flowed throughout his body.

Wherever the heat flowed, it was as if countless red hot knives were stirring. His limbs, bones, and meridians all swelled as if they were about to be torn apart.

His complexion instantly became as pale as a sheet of paper, yet his skin became crimson red. Numerous green veins protruded from his skin, and numerous egg-sized protrusions wandered about the surface of his body as if they were alive. It was an extremely bizarre sight.

Han Li's face showed an unusual expression of pain. Beads of sweat the size of soybeans appeared on his forehead and flowed down continuously. His body couldn't help but tremble.

After an unknown period of time, the Qi and blood in his body were affected by this heat flow and circulated at full force. All the opened profound acupoints in his body instantly lit up.

Han Li was considered a person with a strong mind, but at this moment, he seemed to be in a daze.

Although he still had a trace of spiritual consciousness left, he wanted to find a way to protect his sea of consciousness and prevent himself from falling into a deep sleep. But at this moment, the Heavenly Fiend Hell Suppression Technique in his body automatically circulated and guided the heat flow to every part of his body.

If Han Li was awake at this moment, he would realize that those places were the unopened profound acupoints recorded in the technique!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

As a series of strange popping sounds came from every part of his body, those unopened profound acupoints began to move under the continuous impact of the heat flow.

This concentrated impact caused Han Li's body to tremble uncontrollably. Waves of heart-wrenching pain constantly assaulted him, causing Han Li to suddenly wake up.

While he was secretly relieved that he was lucky, he immediately realized the changes that had occurred in his body. He was immediately surprised and delighted.

He forcefully endured the pain in his body and returned to his normal sitting position. He circulated the Heavenly Fiend Hell Suppression Technique and guided the heat flow in his body to attack those profound acupoints.

Bang!

What surprised him was that the profound acupoints that were originally difficult to open were now very smooth. In just a moment, one of the profound acupoints had been opened.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

One profound aperture after another suddenly opened, and in just a short moment, there were actually over twenty profound apertures that had been opened.

At this moment, there were a total of 263 Mystic Apertures on his body!

Right at this moment, the scorching energy within Han Li's body suddenly changed, and the heat withdrew completely before transforming into a cool and comfortable feeling that suffused his body, causing his soul to tremble without end.

An indescribable feeling of contentment welled up in his heart, and he almost moaned. It took him a while to stabilize his mind.

The Sulphuric Blood Cloud was indeed worthy of being hailed as a divine item for mystic cultivators. It could actually allow one to break through so many mystic apertures in such a short period of time!

Although he still found it hard to believe, it was the truth. He had no choice but to believe it.

"I wonder if there will be any hidden dangers after opening the Mysterious Aperture with this item?" Han Li couldn't help but think to himself.

As he pondered, all of the abnormal phenomena on the surface of his body disappeared, and his body seemed to have returned to normal in the blink of an eye.

Han Li didn't dare to be careless. He continued to activate the Heavenly Fiend Hell Suppression Technique, and completely calmed down the swelling power of blood and Qi in his body. Only then did he stand up and fly in the direction of the large group of people in front of him.

Although he had left for a long time, he had been paying attention to the direction, so he didn't lose his direction.

At this moment, the surrounding Sulphuric Flame Sea was much thinner than before.

After a while, Han Li found the group led by Ekai and Madam Liu Hua. Perhaps they were deliberately waiting for people like him who were searching for the blood cloud, but Ekai and Madam Liu Hua's footsteps were extremely slow.

Apart from Shi Chuankong, Xuanyuan Xing, Fu Jian, and Duan Tong, everyone else had already returned.

Ekai didn't show any expression towards Han Li's return, but Madam Liu Hua glanced at Han Li before quickly turning her head back.

"Fellow Li, you've finally returned. Why are you so late?

It seems like your strength has improved quite a bit! "Chen Yang was originally at the back of the group, and when he saw Han Li, he came up to greet him.

"It's alright, I've made some progress." In front of Chen Yang, Han Li didn't deny anything.

"That's good, but don't be careless. It's said that Zhu Ziyuan and Zhu Ziqing of Xuan City have also obtained the Sulphuric Flame Blood Cloud, and their strength has improved greatly.

Especially Zhu Ziyuan, his strength is already extremely strong, and he's not much inferior to us City Lords. Now that he has obtained the power of the Sulphuric Flame Blood Cloud, the situation is becoming more and more disadvantageous for us, "Chen Yang nodded and said through voice transmission.

Hearing this, Han Li raised his head and looked at Zhu Ziyuan, who was following closely behind Ekai, and saw that Zhu Ziyuan's eyes were looking straight ahead with incomparable concentration.

"Fellow Daoist Shi and Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan haven't returned. Could it be that something happened to them?

That bastard Fu Jian also hasn't returned. Could it be that Fellow Daoist Shi and the others are unlucky and encountered this person? "Han Li looked around again and said through voice transmission.

"It shouldn't be. The two of them left first, so they might have gone to investigate further away," Chen Yang said, as if he wasn't too worried.

Although Han Li was a little worried about Shi Chuankong, he didn't say anything more.

Fortunately, not long after, with the sound of breaking through the air, two figures rushed out from the depths of the blood mist one after another. It was Shi Chuankong and Xuanyuan Xing.

Both of them looked dejected, and it was obvious that they didn't find anything.

After a while, Fu Jian also returned with Duan Tong. Looking at their complexions, it was obvious that they were also unlucky. When they looked at Han Li, who was walking side by side with Chen Yang, there was a flash of anger in their eyes.

Han Li naturally turned a blind eye to this.

At this point, everyone had returned to the team, so Ekai sped up.

After walking for more than two hours, the surrounding blood mist became fainter and finally disappeared completely.

The scenery in front of them suddenly opened up, and a continuous mountain range appeared in front of them.

The terrain of this mountain range was vast, and the mountain peaks rose and fell one after another, stretching as far as the eye could see.

Not a single blade of grass grew on these mountain peaks, and the sky was no longer drizzling. It was like the rainforest from before, as if they had entered a different world.

The strangest thing was that whether it was the ground or the rocks, they were all blood-red.

Between the lofty mountains and precipitous ridges, there were several blood-red rivers flowing. The air was also rippling with the power of blood. However, this power of blood did not have the slightest stench. Instead, it gave off a sweet taste.

Ekai did not stop at all. He led the group into the blood-red mountain range, and after passing through a few mountain peaks, they arrived at a huge basin in the mountains.

Several blood red rivers converged here, and at the intersection of these blood red rivers stood an incomparably huge blood red palace. In terms of height, it was not much inferior to the nearby mountains, and the area it occupied was not small either. It was at least 50 kilometers wide, and it was like a blood red beast lying on the basin.

Jade pillars stood outside the hall, and there were silver jade steps. They shone brilliantly, and millions of blood-red rays of light faintly radiated from them. It was an extremely spectacular sight, causing even Han Li and the other knowledgeable people to become slightly dazed.

"What a spectacular hall," Shi Chuankong could not help but praise.

Han Li looked at the blood-red hall, and a strange expression flashed across his face, but he immediately returned to normal.

The entrance to the hall was a pair of blood-red stone doors, which were tightly shut at the moment, as if they had been sealed for countless years.

Countless blood-red runes were carved on the stone doors, and there were also various patterns. They looked extremely complicated, and vaguely formed a spell formation.

Han Li carefully looked at the spell formation on the door, and soon found some clues.

The spell formation on the door was quite similar to the star spell formation, but it was not completely the same. It seemed to be the product of the star spell formation and another kind of spell formation.

At the five nodes of the stone door's spell formation, there were five small black holes in the shape of plum blossoms, which seemed to be reserved.

Next to each of the small holes were two words: Ye Sha, You Ming, Bi Lin, Jingshen, Ying Hua, five names.

Han Li's eyes flashed, and he touched the two keys on his body.

Ge looked at the blood-red hall, and his eyes were abnormally hot, and his breathing became slightly heavier.

"City Lord, is this hall the forbidden area that you mentioned, and the Saint's corpse is inside?" Sun Tu took a few steps forward and asked.

"That's right," Ge lightly exhaled, and his expression became calm again as he said.

When the others heard this, there was a commotion, and they started discussing.

Sun Tu looked at the hall, and there was a look of contemplation on his face. Then, he suddenly took a few steps forward, and walked to the door of the hall. He placed his hand on the door, and he muttered something.

Rays of white starlight were emitted from his palm, and there were traces of blood-red light in it. The light rippled like water, and it seemed like he was sensing something.

When Er Ge saw Sun Tu's actions, he smiled nonchalantly.

"That's right, there is indeed a very strong aura of the corpse inside," Sun Tu said after a while, and withdrew his palm.

"City Lord Sun, what do you mean by that? Are you suspecting that the City Lord is lying to us?" Fu Jian said angrily.

Sun Tu glanced at Fu Jian expressionlessly, and did not say anything.

"City Lord Sun has never been here before, so it's natural for us to be cautious.

Now that we've checked with a secret technique, it proves that I'm not lying. If anyone else is worried, you can also use your technique to check, "Ge raised his hand to stop Fu Jian, and said calmly.

The others heard this and looked at each other.

"Our Xuan City has only been able to stand until now because of the City Lord's protection. We, Tongyu City and Xuanzhi City, absolutely believe your words, unlike some people who are so suspicious. It's simply ridiculous," Fu Jian glanced at Sun Tu and Chen Yang, and said with a cold smile.

Qin Yuan, who was standing to the side, also hurriedly agreed.

Chen Yang's eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn't say a word.

"Since no one wants to check, then let's not waste time and open the door of the forbidden area," Ge glanced at the crowd, waved his hand, and said loudly.

Fu Jian and the others nodded.

"Wait!"

At this moment, Sun Tu spoke again.

"Sun Tu, don't be presumptuous!

You're a City Lord under Xuan City, don't forget your identity! "Fu Jian said angrily.

"City Lord Fu, there's no need to be so angry. I just have some things that I don't understand, and I would like to ask City Lord for advice," Sun Tu said with a faint smile.

"City Lord Sun, please speak," Ge said with a smile. He had a good temper and was not angry at all.

"City Lord E previously said that to open the door of the forbidden area, we need five keys. We only have the one in Mr. Li's hand, so how do we open the door?

Could it be that the other four keys are with City Lord? "Sun Tu's eyes flickered as he said.
