Chapter 1090 Red Flame Wasteland

When the silver light dissipated, everyone found themselves in a crimson desert.

The scorching wind blew gravel against the rock wall, making a whimpering sound.

"Red Flame Wasteland?" Di Chen kicked the crystallized red gravel at his feet. "This is more than a thousand miles farther than the Amethyst Bamboo Forest."

Luo Li put away the remaining silver light of the formation talisman, "Brother Wanbai improved it, after all..."

She suddenly fell silent, and the Xuan Yue Sword was unsheathed without warning, splitting a piece of red rock a hundred meters away into two halves.

Blood oozed out from the rock section, and the red flame monitor lizard disguised as a rock wailed and revealed its true form.

"Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"

The monitor lizard curled up into a ball, begging for mercy in fear, "I just wanted to sneak up on you and steal some treasure, but I didn't expect to hit an iron wall!"

Luo Li frowned slightly, "How can you, a six-star great lord-level monster, be so cowardly?"

Feng Wuhen squatted down with great interest. "Isn't the Red Flame Giant Lizard a social monster? Where are your kind?"

The Scarlet Flame Giant Lizard's eyes darted around, "They're all dead..."

Luo Li narrowed her eyes, and pressed the tip of the Xuan Yue sword against his throat. "Tell the truth."

"Ahhh, it's the Di family!" the Scarlet Flame Giant Lizard screamed, "A while ago they captured all the adult Scarlet Flame Giant Lizards, saying they were going to use them for a blood sacrifice to some formation!"

Luo Li's eyes moved. It seemed that the Di family wanted to use this method to forcibly break the formation. Unfortunately, their plan failed.

Di Chen's expression suddenly changed. "Blood sacrifice formation? How dare Di Wuyou use such a sinister method!"

The Scarlet Flame Giant Lizard trembled. "They, they also captured many other magical beasts. They even captured the Nine Nether Flame Dragon deep in the Scarlet Flame Wasteland..."

Feng Wuhen stood up, his expression solemn, "It seems that the Di family is determined to break the seal this time, no matter the cost."

Luo Li put away the Xuan Yue Sword and said coldly, "Emperor Wuyou's ambition is greater than we imagined, but the seal is already solid, and their calculations are doomed to fail."

She looked at Di Chen, "The Di family is acting this way, what are you going to do after you get out?"

Di Chen was silent for a moment. Before he could speak, the sound transmission stone on his waist lit up. It was Di Yan, "Young Master, return quickly."

A hint of determination flashed in his eyes. "I will go back and continue to lurk in the Di family. I will not fall out with Di Wuyou. Since Di Wuyou dares to use the forbidden technique of blood sacrifice, he must have other tricks up his sleeve. I must find out what their purpose is."

Since three forces are involved, it is no longer a simple matter concerning the Di family. He cannot leave without knowing the reason.

Luo Li nodded, "Okay, then be careful."

She took out a silver jade pendant and handed it to Di Chen, "This is for you. If there's an emergency, crush it and I'll sense it immediately."

Di Chen took the jade pendant and put it away solemnly. "Thank you very much. We will part ways now and see you outside the secret realm."

He turned to leave, but stopped and looked back at Luo Li, "Di Wuyou has been secretly investigating the power of chaos recently, you guys... be careful."

Luo Li's eyes turned cold, "I know."

Di Chen said nothing more, his figure flashed and disappeared at the end of the crimson Gobi Desert.

Feng Wuhen sighed, "Di Chen is a good guy."

Seventeen said calmly: "He has his choice."

Luo Li retracted her gaze and said, "Let's go, it's time for us to continue."

She looked at the Scarlet Flame Giant Lizard, "Do you know where the Di family keeps those monsters?"

The Scarlet Flame Lizard shrank its claws. "In the lava chasm west of the wasteland... but it's now filled with black fog. Any living thing that gets close will turn into a mummy..."

A cluster of phoenix fire shot up from Feng Wuhen's fingertips, and the firelight illuminated his eyebrows and eyes like a painting. "It sounds like the work of the Demon God Temple."

Luo Li raised her eyes and looked towards the west. The sky there was faintly rolling with an ominous dark red. "Let's go and take a look."

Deep in the lava rift, hundreds of black iron cages are suspended above the boiling magma river.

Each cage holds a powerful, dying monster, its blood flowing through the iron chains into the central blood pool.

"Sure enough, they are still trying to break the formation." Luo Li hid in the shadow of the rock wall, and the three black-robed men beside the blood pool were reflected in his pupils - the sun emblem of the Ninth Heaven was embroidered on their chests.

"It seems to be the place where the Nine Heavens and the Demon God Temple have joined forces." Luo Li frowned.

The Zhan Tian Chain in Seventeen's hand hummed, "Do you want to save me?"

"Of course we have to save him," Luo Li curled her lips, "Of course, we can't reveal our identities."

She lightly touched her brows with her fingertips, and a faint blue light flashed. Everyone's appearance instantly changed into an ordinary one that blended in with the crowd.

Feng Wuhen touched his square chin with interest, "It's quite exquisite."

"Walk."

Luo Li glanced at the Yao Chi disciples and Feng Clan disciples behind her and said, "Just wait here."

"yes."

The four of them rushed towards the blood pool like ghosts, but suddenly stopped thirty feet away - dense scarlet curse patterns appeared on the ground.

"Soul Devouring Formation." Seventeen said coldly, "One wrong step will alert the caster."

Luo Li tapped the rock wall lightly with her toes and used the force to flip high into the sky.

The Xuan Yue Sword turned into a stream of light and pierced into the top of the rock. The lightning wrapped around the sword spread like a spider web, instantly shattering the seven hidden array points.

"boom!"

The lava suddenly erupted into a ten-foot-high wave of fire. The Nine Nether Flame Dragon, whose spine was pierced by chains, took the opportunity to break free. Its red-gold pupils stared straight at Luo Li: "Human, why are you helping us?"

Luo Li threw out three ice talismans to freeze the people from the Demon God Temple who were chasing them. "I just don't like them."

The fire dragon let out a deafening roar, and the monsters in other cages began to riot.

The black-robed man beside the blood pool shouted: "Start the preparation—"

Before he could finish his words, Feng Wuhen's Phoenix Fire had already burned through his throat.

Seventeen's long chain pinned the other man's body, preventing him from moving.

Finally, just as the guard was about to crush the jade slip of communication, he was suddenly bitten on the wrist by a red flame giant lizard that emerged from the ground.

Xiaoliu jumped out from Luo Li's sleeve, suddenly grew bigger, and swung its dragon tail, smashing the jade slip into powder.

"Well done." Luo Li drew dozens of curse-breaking talismans in the air, and the restrictions on the monsters were shattered one after another.

The Nine Nether Flame Dragon's breath burned all the black iron cages, and it raised its head and chanted, "The tribes of Tianxu Land will never forget this kindness!"

Luo Li sensed several auras approaching, "Hurry up, someone is coming."

The monsters turned into streams of light and scattered, and Luo Li and the others quickly evacuated.

However, just as they rushed out of the rift valley, a dark shadow blocked their way like a ghost.

"I will tell you who dares to ruin the good deeds of my Demon God Temple."

A pale jaw was revealed as the black robe billowed. The man was playing with a bloody skull with his fingertips. "Turns out they are a few little mice."

The suffocating pressure came crashing down, and Seventeen groaned and knelt on one knee, with spider-web-like cracks appearing on the ground.

"Holy Lord..." Blood flowed from the corners of Feng Wuhen's lips, and the Phoenix True Fire flickered in his palm.

Luo Li gripped the Xuan Yue Sword tightly, "Who are you?"

"The guardian of the Demon God Temple," the black-robed man chuckled, "Little rat, why don't you run away?"
