On the river.

The ferocious monster that the puppet had transformed into charged at Li Yuanqing in an incomparably rude and unreasonable manner.

However, Li Yuanqing was already prepared and was not affected by the blood-colored fog. Instead, he turned around and jumped out. He retreated more than a hundred feet and plunged into the river without looking back.

This monster’s ferocious eyes revealed some confusion. This fellow’s movement speed was not so fast just now. Why did his movements suddenly become so fast? He saw that there was only a faint black shadow left of Li Yuanqing. The monster pondered for a moment and plunged in.

In the river, a thick devilish aura wrapped around Li Yuanqing. An ear-piercing scream could be heard from below.

“Master, over here!”

Little Dot swam around in the water with his two little hands. He finally saw Li Yuanqing and hurriedly leaned over.

Li Yuanqing waved his hand and brought Little Dot along. He used all his strength to increase his speed and headed to the bottom of the river at an extremely fast speed.

In the next second, the monster appeared where Li Yuanqing was. It slapped down, causing a huge wave on the river.

The monster missed again and let out a deafening roar.

Even though the river water had already become extremely sticky under the pollution of the devilish aura, the sound still pierced through Li Yuanqing’s body.

Li Yuanqing felt as if he had been slapped from behind. If not for the tough protective shield beside him, his internal organs would have been shattered by the force. He used this power to grit his teeth and increase his speed. Soon, he arrived at the bottom of the river, at the incomparably dark entrance.

The monster chased after him relentlessly. Although it had already fallen into a violent state, it still had a trace of rationality. The monster’s scarlet eyes looked at the dark hole below.

This was the door to the Devil Realm. For some reason, Li Yuanqing had opened it in advance.

Li Yuanqing’s vision blurred, as if something had covered it.

The monster immediately followed and regained Li Yuanqing’s vision.

“You’re courting death!”

When the monster saw that Li Yuanqing was about to enter the Devil Realm, it immediately flew into a rage out of humiliation.

Li Yuanqing looked at the dark door and then back at the puppet behind him. Without hesitation, he jumped into the Devil Realm.

At this extremely anxious moment, the monster transformed from the puppet did not have time to distinguish. It rushed in. From the looks of it, he was determined to tear Li Yuanqing apart here today.

Just as the monster entered the Devil Realm, a layer of black fog slowly peeled away from the side of the Devil Realm Gate, revealing a figure. It was Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing’s expression was solemn. He held a pitch-black token in both hands and muttered something to the door beside him.

The originally chaotic Devil Realm became even more chaotic after the monster crawled in. The monster directly turned the Devil Realm upside down, and the screams of the devils inside were endless.

The door at the side slowly closed, bit by bit.

The person who had crawled into the cave was not Li Yuanqing. He was still here and had relied on a sly trick to deceive the monster.

A moment before the Devil Realm Gate closed, an incomparably miserable roar seemed to tear people apart. It struck Li Yuanqing heavily with a rude and unreasonable impact.

A faint trace of blood appeared at the corner of Li Yuanqing’s mouth. He gritted his teeth and stabilized his body, closing the last crack. The door to the Devil Realm was completely closed.

A rumbling sound resounded throughout the bottom of the river.

However, all of this disappeared when the door was closed. The monster was locked in the Devil Realm by Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing sat at the side, panting heavily. He looked at the tightly shut door. He had to confirm if that fellow would come out again.

This monster was too powerful. Even if Li Yuanqing used the Soul Suppression Altar in his domain, it was not enough to control it. It could be seen how powerful it was.

“Master! That’s great. That guy is too scary. Fortunately, he was locked in.”

Little Dot sat beside Li Yuanqing and patted his chest seriously. He panted heavily and said in a muffled voice.

“It’s all thanks to you this time.”

Little Dot raised his head proudly.

“Master, there’s no need to say these pleasantries. Little Dot is a good helper for you. I will always be by your side.”

Although he said that, his big eyes were looking at Li Yuanqing longingly.

Li Yuanqing took out a ten-thousand-year-old ginseng fruit and stuffed it into Little Dot’s arms. He liked to eat these things the most.

Little Dot pounced forward and hugged the fruit. As he drooled, he said gratefully, “Thank you, Master!”

Just now, Li Yuanqing had specially run to this place and opened the door at the bottom of the river. However, the devilish aura that overflowed from below was not enough to completely cover his body.

Fortunately, Li Yuanqing still had Little Dot in his hands. The greatest effect of the Soul Suppression Altar was to control the devilish aura. With just a little movement from the little guy, he could completely disrupt the entire fog environment below.

Moreover, according to Li Yuanqing’s instructions, he condensed some of the fog below into a small array formation that had a certain concealment ability. Li Yuanqing used this small array formation to hide himself inside before releasing his Wood Spirit Clone.

The one who had escaped into the Devil Realm was Li Yuanqing’s Wood Spirit Clone. At this moment, a light flashed above Li Yuanqing’s palm, and the small clone returned to its wooden form and lay quietly in his hand.

However, the light on the wood spirit clone’s body was very dim. Compared to when he was sent out, his strength was clearly much weaker. He might need a long period of rest before he could use it normally again.

Just now, Li Yuanqing was focused on closing the door to the Devil Realm, so he did not recall his clone immediately. This was why his clone was hit by the monster and lost a certain amount of power. He hoped that it would not cause any impact.

After feeling regretful, Li Yuanqing put away his clone again. He waved his hand and a pile of array discs of various sizes appeared at the bottom of the river.

These array discs were placed neatly beside the entrance to the Devil Realm. Li Yuanqing waved his hand and the largest one landed in his hand.

He placed the core array disc beside the black stone tablet. After placing it down, the other array discs slowly moved on their own as if they had been guided.

A huge array with a diameter of about a thousand feet slowly condensed at the bottom of the riverbed. This array rose from the bottom and slowly raised a lid like a balloon, sealing the entire space below.

A pitch-black light circulated on the big bowl and slowly fused with the color of the river beside it.

This was a top-notch sealing array. Not only did Li Yuanqing have to eliminate the possibility of the black stone tablet opening again, but he also had to prevent anyone from opening this entrance again. He had suffered a lot earlier.

After setting up all of this, Li Yuanqing finally heaved a sigh of relief. Although he did not know how that fellow came here, it would probably take some time for him to return to the Demon Realm. He needed this time to set up.

Now that everything seemed to have passed, the crisis could only be said to be temporarily resolved.

Sea City.

The originally chaotic scene was completely controlled.

Ye Qiluo brought her guards and forcefully imprisoned all the unconscious people. She even sealed all the spiritual energy in their bodies. This way, when they woke up again, they would not be able to cause trouble.

The City Lord Manor turned into a prison as quickly as possible.

In the hall of the City Lord Manor, there were people tied up one by one. Most of them were weaker and did not need to be confined alone.

Ye Qiluo took off her helmet, and her exquisite face revealed a trace of fatigue.

“City Lord, everyone has been detained!”

“Brothers, we’ll be busy tonight. Split into three shifts and wait until dawn tomorrow.”

“City Lord.” The guard captain was very conflicted. He looked up at Ye Qiluo. “Why did they become like this? If this continues, are we going to keep tying them up like this? What if one day…”

Ye Qiluo stared into his eyes and replied, “There will be a way by tomorrow morning.”

“City Lord, I was presumptuous. However, the brothers below have such doubts. Everyone doesn’t know why they became like this? They don’t know why they treated them like this.”

“That’s not for you to ask. Alright, you’ve been busy enough today. You should go down and rest. Remember to arrange everything tonight. If anything happens, you’ll be the one to answer.”

The guard captain lowered his head heavily.

“Yes!”

The guard captain hurriedly left. Ye Qiluo pulled herself together and turned around to look at the shadow behind her.

“It’s not a good attitude to treat your subordinates like this.”

A person slowly walked out of the shadows. No one knew when this person had appeared. No one noticed him, let alone knew who he was.

If someone asked Ye Qiluo this question, she would probably answer: He is the guardian of this place.

“Young Master Li, how is it? I didn’t see you come back after so long. Are you in trouble?”

Li Yuanqing raised his eyebrows indifferently. “I did encounter some trouble, but it’s all resolved now. There’s no problem. Don’t worry.”

“Young Master Li, I kept feeling uneasy just now, as if something was about to happen, but I didn’t know what to do. Now that these people have been captured, what’s inside that stone?”

“It’s something that shouldn’t exist here.”

“Young Master, are they here?”

“Who?”

“I’ve investigated a lot about the Immortal Ascension Door after I returned. Although I’m not especially clear, I have my own guesses. You can’t keep hiding it from me.”

“It’s just that I’m not sure if those people really exist now, so I’m afraid it’s not the time to tell you these things.”

“So did someone really come down from the legendary Immortal World?”

“It’s hard to say at the moment.”

“To have such power without anyone knowing, and to have everyone in the city become such obsessed believers to such an extent, other than those people, there’s no one else.”

Ye Qiluo kept watching Li Yuanqing ask. Li Yuanqing himself did not have an answer to this question.

He knew too little about the legendary Immortal World. He only knew a little. It was probably not much help in the current situation.

“Perhaps. However, at the very least, we still have a certain amount of time to protect ourselves. I hope that you can complete the array formation of the entire city as soon as possible and strengthen it on your original foundation. Only then can you ensure the safety of the entire human race.”

“Young Master Li, don’t worry. I’ll definitely protect everyone.”

Li Yuanqing was about to leave when he looked at the people piled up in rows below. He turned around and instructed Ye Qiluo, “They will slowly wake up, but it’s best not to let them all go at once. Let them go back to their normal lives after you confirm that they have completely calmed down.”

Before Ye Qiluo could continue, he returned to the shadow. Soon, Li Yuanqing’s body slowly sank into the night again.

Ye Qiluo slowly took out a seal made of jade from her sleeve. This seal was crystal clear. Some golden threads could be seen among them, forming its meridians. It was very magical, just like human blood vessels and meridians.

Ye Qiluo originally wanted to hand this seal to Li Yuanqing. This was a seal that symbolized the core strength of the human race. As long as he had this seal, he could gather the human race no matter when or where.

All the descendants of the human race who had been passed down in the Catacombs world would feel the call of this power.

However, Ye Qiluo did not give it away in the end. Li Yuanqing did not seem to need such a summoning token.

This Young Master Li was too powerful and had completely exceeded the scope of ordinary humans. Ye Qiluo’s heart went from being arrogant to feeling inferior.

She was the Saintess of the human race, but in front of Li Yuanqing, she was nothing.

“Miss.”

An old man slowly walked out from the corner of the aisle. This old man was the old man guarding the library. It was unknown why he was here.

“Uncle Fu, do you think the human race can survive this ordeal?”

“I believe in Young Master Li.”
