Chapter 605: Leave Quickly? Innocent? (2)
Editor: Atlas Studios
Without the Blood King’s suppression, they had actually fought several rounds.
Fortunately, Jiang Li used the Ghost Lantern Cold Flame to break through the ground in time every time and released a large number of maggots to take the initiative to attack, letting them understand that attacking in this city would still not end well.
Only then did the situation stabilize again.
Otherwise, the mortals in the city would die in large numbers because of the aftershock of their battle.
The Earth Immortal was not angry at his former colleague’s provocation. Instead, there was a trace of pity in his eyes.
The more they caused chaos, the more these old fellows could show their faces in front of the two young people.
When they swaggered out of Tragic Death City, it would definitely be quite exciting to see their expressions.
“There’s no new owner here, and there’s nothing to see. Leave quickly!”
He still blocked the way indifferently, not even bothering to argue.
The dozen or so Earth Immortals who had grasped the common secret were already faintly united again.
The reason why they took the initiative to protect Jiang Li’s secret was very simple. It was to improve his impression of them and obtain the opportunity to be expiated.
They had the same goal, so they could use their strength together.
On the other hand, the experts who had gathered to join in the fun did not trust each other. At most, they were in small groups.
Although they had more people in total, they were actually not too threatening. They basically could not fight.
With someone helping to stop him, Jiang Li did not have the intention to appear himself and left with the medicinal pill.
His cultivation was not high to begin with. After restraining his aura, he looked like an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator.
Even if he ran around under their noses, it was very easy for those experts to ignore him.
He swaggered away with his things and left the place surrounded.
However, Jiang Li did not notice that a gaze still landed on him.
On the roof in the distance, a figure covered in a black robe silently disappeared and followed from behind.
…
He held the first Heaven-rank medicinal pill in his life.
Jiang Li’s footsteps were light and he seemed to be quite happy.
With this medicinal pill and the preparations he had made in other aspects during this period of time, he had all the supplementary materials needed to break through to the Soul Formation realm.
He could go back and get a few Dharma Protectors to help him break through.
However, Jiang Li, who was walking on the streets of Tragic Death City, gradually began to notice that something was wrong with his surroundings.
Tragic Death City, which was originally only illuminated by the moonlight, was not very bright.
With his strength and the few statuses on the interface, as long as there was a little light, there would be no problem in seeing things.
However, at this moment, it seemed that the more he walked, the darker the light around him became. The light was disappearing from his world.
When Jiang Li’s footsteps completely stopped, he could already vaguely see that there were almost five fingers on the stone brick road beneath his feet.
Looking up, the originally pure white moon had unknowingly turned blood red.
He gently snapped his fingers. He originally wanted to use the Bodhisattva Heart Sutra to probe the surrounding environment, but the sound that spread out disappeared without a trace. There was no response.
At this moment, how could Jiang Li not know that he had unknowingly fallen for something?
He tried to move his feet slightly, and the circle of light that was only an inch away immediately began to shrink again.
This phenomenon seemed to be related to his footsteps. As long as he moved slightly, the light would continue to disappear.
However, standing on the spot was not a solution. After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Li still took a step forward.
All the surrounding light suddenly disappeared, leaving only the blood moon in the sky.
There did not seem to be any danger.
He had already adjusted his condition.
The Immortal Slaying Flying Sword could unleash its strongest attack at any time. The Inverted Domain covered his body, so if he was attacked, he could counterattack immediately.
After waiting for a while, there was still no danger.
However, there were some faint voices ahead.
More than one person’s footsteps… someone was crying… and… the sound of chains colliding…
Jiang Li carefully activated his hearing and explored forward. Only then did he vaguely hear the voices mixed in.
“Leave quickly. Don’t pretend to be dead here!”
“Are your feet for decoration? If you don’t leave, I’ll chop them off for you!”
“I’m innocent, Lord! Let me go! I’ll definitely repay you in my next life! I’m innocent!”
Listening to the conversation and imagining the scene, it seemed that someone was escorting the prisoners past.
Jiang Li, who was prepared, carefully walked in the darkness towards the sound.
“Leave quickly. Do you think my mourning staff is for show?”
“If you miss the time, you’ll be punished even more! Leave quickly! Leave quickly! Leave quickly!”
The voice from ahead became more and more ferocious and urgent.
Soon, all that was left was the repeated “Leave Quickly” and the “Innocent” cries!
Jiang Li’s footsteps continuously increased along with the frequency of the voices, but he was always unable to find the location of those voices.
Angry urging and painful cries of injustice floated in the darkness from time to time.
The voice seemed to contain a special power that led to the corrosion of those who heard it.
As he ran endlessly, Jiang Li was vexed by the two voices.
Just as his mind was in a daze, his lips suddenly opened. He had already said “I’m inno-” when suddenly, the abrupt change caused Jiang Li to instantly recover from his shock.
Jiang Li, who reacted in time, firmly covered his mouth.
In the darkness, the two chains that were originally shooting at him stopped abruptly the moment Jiang Li covered his mouth.
They slowly retracted it as if they were unwilling.
As expected, they were waiting for him here!
This should be a trap targeted at words. Once one was affected and said a specific sentence, they would completely fall into the other party’s trap. It would be extremely difficult to turn around.
He sent a portion of his mind into his consciousness.
Sure enough, something was trying to affect his soul and disturb his judgment.
However, because his consciousness was still surrounded by a layer of seven-colored bubbles, the outer dream world blocked these effects, but the effect on him was only minimal. That was why he could react in time.
With a thought, Jiang Li transferred the invading power to a large area of the dream spiderweb, and the slight influence had completely disappeared.
In its place, tens of thousands of mortals would have nightmares for a period of time.
It was a great merit to help Jiang Li block the calamity. After this, he could let them be emperors for a few years in their dreams and have a taste of royalty.
With the dream world blocking his Sea of Consciousness, his mental world became more stable and safe.
Jiang Li suddenly wanted to see what would happen if someone wanted to possess him again.
When he returned to the outside world, the repeated cries of “Leave Quickly” and “Innocent” were already becoming louder and louder, and it was so noisy that his eardrums were trembling, and it seemed to be forcing Jiang Li to make a choice.
However, how could Jiang Li who had already escaped that slight influence be easily affected?
This darkness was clearly a trap set by the enemy. The choice given by the other party was most likely a scam.
It was best not to choose either.
Scratching his ears, Jiang Li suddenly widened his eyes in anger and roared!
“How dare you! Silence!”
This roar was like a bolt of lightning under the pitch-black night sky, instantly tearing apart the endless darkness.
The surrounding darkness instantly retreated.
However, the scene near him was no longer the old streets of Tragic Death City.
It became a ghastly and murderous hall.
He looked down at his body and realized that he had already changed into a pitch-black golden robe. His stomach was bulging and was tied in the middle by a belt, revealing two circles of extremely obvious fat.
As he breathed, the fat swayed up and down, as if one could hear the sound of fat flowing inside.
This was definitely not his original body!
