Chapter 963 Burning Sky Valley
Feng Wuhen looked at the gradually blurry figure, and suddenly thought of something, and raised his voice to remind: "Luo Li, don't forget that the Nine Heavens Gate will open at noon in fifteen days--"
But before he could finish his words, Luo Li's figure disappeared into the space crack.
Feng Wuhen felt a bit of a headache. Luo Li was a person with strong opinions, so she should be able to catch up, right?
When the light faded, only a few slowly falling sycamore leaves remained in the yard.
——————
At the border of Eclipse Territory, in Burning Sky Valley, the dusk is as dark as blood.
When Luo Li stepped out of the space crack, a strong smell of blood hit her face.
On the distant mountain ridge, the Black Eagle Flag of the Myriad Gods Territory and the Red Sun Flag of the Eclipse Territory fluttered in the smoke.
She stole away from the battlefield and her pupils suddenly shrank - the weapon fragments scattered on the scorched earth were emitting a strange green fluorescence.
"Bone-Eroding Powder..." She squatted down and lightly touched the fragments, and immediately felt a tingling sensation on her fingertips. "This is the unique poison of the Wanhua Territory. It seems that many people have been injured."
Just as she was lost in thought, a sound of breaking air came from behind her.
Luo Li dodged sideways, and three poisoned crossbow arrows sank deep into the ground.
More than ten black-masked spiritual masters stepped out of the shadows. The leader sneered, "I really caught a big fish."
Luo Li glanced at the faintly visible mandala patterns on their lapels and understood.
She deliberately showed panic: "Are you from Wanhua Territory? I'm just passing by here..."
"Stop pretending!" the other party interrupted harshly, "Anyone who can break through the battlefield barrier and get in is either a spy from the Eclipse Territory or reinforcements from the God of War Territory!"
After saying that, he waved his hand to form an array, and poisonous needles poured down from the sky like a rainstorm.
Luo Li sighed softly, and the golden pattern between her eyebrows suddenly lit up.
The vast soul power turned into a light curtain, and all the poison needles vaporized the moment they touched the golden light.
Under the horrified gazes of the crowd, a silver thread flew out from her sleeve, wrapped around the neck of the leader and pulled him to her.
"Are you from Wanhua Territory?"
The leader, wearing a black mask, was strangled by Luo Li and didn't dare to breathe. "Yes, yes!"
Luo Li's fingertips tightened slightly, her voice as cold as ice, "The alliance between the Ten Thousand Flowers Territory and the Ten Thousand Gods Territory, is it related to the Nine Heavens?"
The man's face was pale under the mask, but he clenched his teeth and refused to speak.
Luo Li's eyes turned cold, and a ray of golden soul power condensed at her fingertips and pierced directly into his brow.
"Ah——!" Amidst the shrill screams, the man's memories flooded into Luo Li's mind like a tide.
After a moment, Luo Li let go of his hand and let the man collapse to the ground.
Her expression was terribly gloomy. "Sure enough... Jiuchongtian is manipulating all this behind the scenes."
She saw from her memory that the Ten Thousand Gods Territory and the Ten Thousand Flowers Territory had joined forces to attack the Eclipse Territory, actually following the secret order from the Ninth Heaven.
And their goal...
Luo Li frowned. This man was just a small team leader and didn't know much. He was only here on orders.
"Xuan Mu..." Luo Li murmured softly, feeling a little uneasy.
She had to find them quickly.
After dealing with these people and making sure that there were no future troubles, she flashed and turned into a stream of light, rushing towards the heart of Eclipse Territory.
Along the way, there was flames of war and smoke everywhere.
The Eclipse Territory's defenses were losing ground, and the situation was clearly not optimistic.
Just as she was about to reach the Eclipse Territory's war camp, a deafening roar suddenly erupted in the distance.
A red beam of light shot up into the sky, illuminating the night sky like day.
"That's..." Luo Li frowned, "The power fluctuations from the battle between the great lords!"
She immediately summoned the contracted beasts and said, "Xiao Liu, Shiqi, Momo, go help!"
Three magical beasts with the combat power of great lords responded and turned into three streams of light rushing towards the center of the battlefield.
Luo Li didn't stop and rushed straight to the location where the light column exploded.
Arriving at the battlefield, Luo Li discovered that the two people fighting were the Lord of the Ten Thousand Gods and the Lord of the Eclipse.
The two were equally strong, and for a moment neither could restrain the other.
Luo Li gritted her teeth, "Xiao Liu, go help the Lord of Eclipse!"
Xiaoliu and the other two immediately responded, "Okay!"
In the air, Eclipse Lord Eclipse Tian sensed three powerful auras approaching. He was startled at first, but then realized that they were friends and not enemies. Although he was a little confused, he understood that what he needed at the moment was to force Wu Yue to retreat.
Wu Yue, the Lord of the Ten Thousand Gods Territory, had a sudden change of expression and shouted, "Who are you? How dare you interfere in the war between the two territories!"
Luo Li tapped the air with her toes, and with her clothes fluttering, she was standing beside Shi Tian.
A dazzling golden rune condensed on her fingertips, and her voice was as cold as frost: "I don't like you."
Wu Yue was about to explode with rage, "Who the hell are you!"
Before he could finish his words, Eclipse's Burning Heaven Halberd came towards him, wrapped in crimson flames.
Wu Yue blocked hastily, but his right arm was burned by the soul fire spewed by Xiao Liu.
He retreated several feet, knowing that he could not kill Shitian today. He suddenly crushed the blood-colored jade talisman in his hand and suddenly disappeared into the air.
The air suddenly cleared, and Luo Li frowned, "He ran away so soon."
Momo scratched her head, "I haven't even had time to make a move yet."
Seventeen shrugged, "Who isn't?"
On the other side, Eclipse was somewhat wary, but he still bowed and said, "Thank you for your help, Excellency. I wonder who you are..."
Luo Li glanced sideways, "Don't leave the city, Luo Li."
E Tian's eyes moved. He was not unfamiliar with this name.
In addition to the titles of alchemist and weapon refiner that have recently become famous, he has also heard of them from Xuan Mu many times.
He knew that Luo Li, the young master who never left the city, was Xuan Mu's good friend.
"So it's Lord Luo Li," Shi Tian's smile became genuine, "Thank you for your help today."
Luo Li didn't exchange pleasantries and asked directly, "Lord Eclipse Sky, where are Xuan Mu and the others?"
When Xuan Mu was mentioned, Shi Tian's eyes darkened, "Xuan Mu... "
Luo Li frowned, "What happened to Xuan Mu?"
Eclipse sighed, "He was seriously injured and has been in a coma for over half a month."
"How could this happen?" Luo Li frowned. "Xuan Mu is the first young master of Eclipse Territory. Who dares to hurt him?"
When this was mentioned, a hint of hostility appeared in Eclipse's eyes, "Master of the Ten Thousand Gods, Jing Zhan."
Shi Tian's fists clenched until they crackled. "Half a month ago, a conflict broke out on the border. Xuan Mu led his team to investigate, but Jing Zhan used the power bestowed by the Ninth Heaven to attack Xuan Mu. The poison in his body...has not been cleared yet."
He suddenly coughed violently, and black blood oozed from between his fingers.
Luo Li's pupils suddenly shrank, and she grabbed Shi Tian's wrist.
After investigating with soul power, it was discovered that there were dark green poisonous patterns wrapped around his heart meridian.
"You were poisoned too?" Her voice tightened.
Shi Tian smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's okay, I have suppressed it with my cultivation, so it's fine for now."
Luo Li frowned. He was hit by a poisonous curse that originated from the Great Wilderness Period but has now been lost, the Ten Thousand Devouring Curse.
She had seen records at the God's Tomb that this poisonous curse would gradually corrode the poisoned person's spiritual veins and soul, eventually destroying their cultivation and leaving them emaciated and dead.
Luo Li's eyes darkened, and her voice was as cold as ice: "How dare the Myriad Gods Lord resort to such a sinister method!"
