Chapter 442

442 Exposed

Li Yuanqing crawled out of the small hole. At this moment, the patrolling puppet circled back.

The small crack disappeared after the Flame Rat crawled in.

“Supremacy, they cooperated from the inside and broke the restriction on the Alchemy Pavilion. Now that the restriction is closed, I’m afraid the two of us can’t enter.”

Li Yuanqing ignored him and waited there, waiting for the puppet to circle around again like the three of them. He brought Shan Que and quickly passed through the path to the restriction at the foot of the mountain.

“Supremacy, that guy will circle back soon.”

Li Yuanqing suddenly took out a circular array disc with three small flags on it. He skillfully inserted the three small flags at the edge of the restriction in front of him and placed the circular array disc in the middle of the small flags.

He pressed the center of the array disc with one hand. The array disc slowly lit up and released a puff of smoke that spread to the restriction in front of him.

The smoke ahead slowly thinned after being covered by this gas. Like melted ice, the hazy image gradually disappeared, revealing the real forest inside.

Li Yuanqing flashed through the small door.

Shan Que watched in shock. In just a short while, Li Yuanqing had broken through a protective array on the mountain gate. Moreover, there was no reaction from outside at all. It seemed like they did not notice at all.

After going up the mountain, as the Azure Dragon Lord had said, there were really no guards on it. Li Yuanqing carefully sensed around and indeed did not sense any aura.

They followed the tracks of the few people just now and slowly caught up.

The magnificent Alchemy Pavilion stood at the top of the mountain, but it looked a little deserted at this time.

He walked across the wide circular square to the door of the Alchemy Pavilion and could hear the voices of three people whispering inside.

“I was really a stupid pig to believe what you said!”

The Flame Rat gritted his teeth and cursed.

The Azure Dragon High Lord’s face was ashen as he looked at the empty Alchemy Pavilion in front of him. It was completely different from the news he had received.

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two of them was slightly awkward, Black Dragon whispered, “Maybe they just moved the things away?”

“I knew the two of you were unreliable!”

It was no wonder that the Flame Rat was furious. Li Yuanqing was a little puzzled when he came up just now.

There were no guards in the Alchemy Pavilion at all. Moreover, the restrictions inside had already been removed, and there was no smell of pills. He did not know why these people had come up.

This situation was exactly as he had imagined. He slowly circled to the side of the hall and continued walking forward. There was a magnificent mountain in front of him.

That mountain did not look very eye-catching, but it was heavily guarded. Moreover, there were very powerful restrictions on it. If he was not wrong, this was the most important treasure vault of the Divine Fire Sect.

“Don’t you know something about the situation here? What is that place?”

Shan Que scratched his head hesitantly and said uncertainly, “Supremacy, my news is all hearsay, so it might not be accurate. They said that the Divine Fire Sect’s treasure vault is very close to the Alchemy Pavilion. Moreover, there’s a passageway below the Alchemy Pavilion that leads to their dungeon.”

“Where did you find out about this?”

Shan Que looked into the hall in fear and said, “They said that the people in the Divine Fire Sect are all crazy and like to eat human flesh and drink human blood. Their alchemists often catch criminals and refine human pills with humans as the foundation. That’s why they specially built a passageway.”

“There’s such a thing?”

“I’m not sure if it’s true, but that’s what everyone else says. I think it’s not much different.”

Li Yuanqing looked at the mountain in front of him and pondered about saving Master Wuyan.

First of all, it was hard to say if Master Wuyan was dead or alive. If he barged into the dungeon, it was very likely that he would make a wasted trip and not get anything. If he could plunder his treasure vault before that, it would not be a wasted trip.

There were more than ten puppets guarding the mountain in front of them. Their Divine Fire Sect had already fallen to such a state, and there were probably not many puppets left. But more than ten people were mobilized to guard this mountain.

From the looks of it, this was not simple. It would probably be difficult to enter silently. If they barged in directly, it would indeed be troublesome when reinforcements from other places arrived.

Just as Li Yuanqing was conflicted, the three people in the hall behind him argued again.

“We’re already here. What else do you want? Have I told you any lies since I came in? I’ve been tricked too.”

Flame Rat looked at him suspiciously. He didn’t want to believe anything this guy said anymore.

“Whatever you say. Hurry up and open that door. I’m leaving now. I’m not in the mood to waste time with you two. Do whatever you want. It has nothing to do with me.”

“If you leave, the two of us will definitely be exposed. We have to move together. You can’t leave!”

“In your dreams!” Flame Rat said coldly. “I’ve already been tricked by you to come here, and you still want to trick me in!”

The Azure Dragon High Lord seemed to have made a difficult decision. He suddenly said to him, “We’ll split it fifty-fifty!”

Flame Rat reluctantly turned to look at him.

“What did you say?”

“I originally wanted to give the extra twenty percent to him, but since I’ve already been betrayed, there’s no need to keep this twenty percent. The two of us will just split this twenty percent and forget about it.”

“Look at how many people are guarding the front. Can you enter?” Flame Rat looked at him coldly and said, “I want to stay alive. If you want to die, go ahead.”

“You’re already here. Are you really not interested in their treasures at all?”

The Azure Dragon High Lord walked to the entrance of the hall and looked to his right in confusion.

It was empty. There was nothing there. However, he clearly felt that something was wrong just now.

“That’s the treasure vault of their sect. There are huge piles of fire spirit fruits inside. Can you bear to put down so many fire spirit fruits and leave?”

“No matter how much it has to do with me.”

“I have a secret path that can sneak into the treasure vault silently from the foot of this mountain.”

“Where did you get this? Don’t tell me that guy gave it to you?”

“I spent a hundred spirit stones to buy this from that array master. No one knows!”

At this point, the Azure Dragon High Lord was a little anxious.

Flame Rat sized up the Azure Dragon High Lord. He did not look like he was lying.

“Tell me where the secret passageway is first.”

“Follow me and you will know.” Azure Dragon pointed at a place with dense black fog on the side of the mountain opposite. “There was originally a canal to the east, and there is a snake demon guarding it.”

“What level of snake demon?”

“Second-grade Supremacy.”

“Are you joking?”

“Listen to me.”

Azure Dragon told him everything.

“Although that snake demon’s cultivation level is high, it has to hibernate for a month every few years. Not many people know about this. Moreover, the terrain there is dangerous. They usually won’t set up any defense. It’s our opportunity.”

“You’ve even calculated that place?” Flame Rat carefully sized up the Azure Dragon, his eyes filled with distrust.

“Since I’ve already planned to come, I naturally have to set it up better.”

Just as the Flame Rat was hesitating, two figures rushed down the mountain without the three of them noticing.

“Supremacy, do you really believe what he said?”

“It’s fine. We’ll know if it’s true or not when we go and investigate.”

Shan Que looked at Li Yuanqing worriedly.

“I keep feeling that this guy can’t say a word of truth. Perhaps even this matter is fake.”

The two of them went down the mountain and circled around from the outside to the place where Azure Dragon was gesturing.

Black smoke billowed here, enveloping a radius of ten miles. Everything that came into contact with it turned into thick black liquid. There were no plants here. They were all black mud pools that looked like swamps. There was a layer of bushes guarding the outermost area. With this bush here, the black fog did not expand.

In the depths of the swamp, there was indeed a powerful snake.

Behind the two of them, three auras were approaching very quickly.

Azure Dragon hurried along this secret path. This was their last chance. They had spent so much effort to come in this time. It would be too unlucky if they could not get anything.

Just as he was running fast, a light flashed in front of him. For some reason, a two-foot-tall little person blocked his path.

The moment the little person appeared, he was shocked.

He saw that this little guy was just a puppet. However, when Black Dragon saw the puppet, his eyes widened in disbelief.

“This…”

“What is this?”

Flame Rat looked at the little puppet in front of him in panic. The appearance of this thing was completely unexpected.

As soon as he finished speaking, Number Thirty Six suddenly opened his mouth and let out an extremely penetrative roar.

“Not good!”

Azure Dragon’s face darkened. He really could not figure out where he had miscalculated and was actually tricked like this.

When they realized that something was wrong, they wanted to retreat, but it was too late.

When the puppets outside heard the commotion, they turned their gazes over. Even a man in a yellow robe in the treasure vault in the mountainside quickly left the treasure vault when he heard the shout.

“You bastard, you want to kill us all here!”

Flame Rat turned pale with fright and burrowed into the ground, wanting to use the Earth Escape Technique to escape.

However, the ground under his feet suddenly flickered with spiritual light, as if it had been changed into something as hard as ore.

Flame Rat stabbed into it with a crisp clang. He felt dizzy and looked out anxiously.

The moment something happened, Azure Dragon immediately retreated. His only way out now was to break out from the way he came. Otherwise, he would not be able to break out in any direction.

Black Dragon followed him, but he did not forget to turn around to look before leaving.

Number Thirty Six looked at him expressionlessly.

He would never forget this little puppet. However, the Bai Mei fellow had clearly fled somewhere. How could he still be in the Immortal World?

While the three of them fled in a sorry state, Li Yuanqing wrapped himself in black fog and brought Shan Que through the wide swamp.

An incomparably huge python was sleeping soundly under their feet, not noticing the two of them pass.

Powerful energy kept surging over from the mountain. Outside, many puppets stationed elsewhere also rushed over.

Li Yuanqing landed on the mountain. This place was really an empty space except for the array formation that condensed the black fog. They thought that it was foolproof.

However, who would have thought that the Azure Dragon would know when this snake demon was sleeping?

In just a short while, all the puppets chased in the direction of the medicinal garden. This was also the weakness of their defensive array formation.

As long as one thing went wrong, the other directions would immediately respond.

Although they could gather their strength for a short period of time, they would also face the trouble of running around for nothing.

Li Yuanqing had just landed on the mountain when he suddenly took out the altar to hide their figures and carefully looked at the sky.

It turned out that in the sky, a yellow-robed man suddenly appeared. After confirming the direction of the medicinal garden, he flew over.

“Supremacy, that person is Supremacy Huang Ling. The few Supremacies of their Divine Fire Sect are all dead and injured. There’s only one left and he’s still guarding here alone.”

Supremacy Huang Ling never expected that there were two other people under his feet who had already sneaked into the depths when he ran to deal with someone who had sneaked in from behind.

As soon as he left, Li Yuanqing secretly brought the two of them to the treasure vault in the mountainside.

There was a very wide bronze door here.

This bronze door was engraved with very complicated patterns and carried a very profound power.

“This bronze door is 103,000 pounds heavy and has layers of restrictions. If there is no key to the restriction to enter and exit, we won’t be able to break through it in a short period of time.”

Shan Que looked behind him anxiously. He did not know when the Supremacy Huang Ling would return.

“Supremacy, it’ll be too late if we don’t leave now. When Huang Ling returns, the two of us will be blocked here.”
