Qing Zhou said: "Maybe it's because they worship the sun. The higher they live, the closer they are to the sun, right?"
Hearing Qing Zhou suddenly speak, Ye Li was startled, then he reacted, nodded in agreement, and said: "Senior Qing Zhou is right, this should be the reason."
As he spoke, Ye Li had already walked into the ancient city of Tianyang. Only after the dazzling golden-red light around him dimmed a little did Ye Li see the city clearly.
Upon seeing this, Ye Li's face was filled with shock again.
The towers that had looked so dazzling just now were now in a dilapidated state.
The tower is covered with cracks and looks like it will collapse at any time.
Apart from these tall towers, the surrounding streets are also full of ruins and ordinary low houses, all in a dilapidated state.
The entire city was shrouded in light and nothing unusual could be seen. When the light dissipated, a dilapidated city that looked like ruins appeared in front of Ye Li.
"This... This Tianyang Ancient City is so dilapidated!!!"
Ye Li was a little surprised.
Tunri said: "What's so strange about this? Didn't the mystery say that this place was sealed because of a great war
After the war, the city was naturally in ruins, so it's not surprising. It would be more problematic if it was intact."
Hearing Tunri's words, Ye Li was stunned, then he finally reacted and said, "Yes, that should be it.
Judging from the traces of destruction on the city, the battle must have been extremely brutal, and most of the city was destroyed.
I don’t know how powerful the Tianyang Divine Puppet is. I really hope it is dead or has lost its power.
If it still maintains the strength of a peak Saint, it will be almost impossible for us to fight it."
As he spoke, Ye Li had already walked a long way along the road in the city.
According to Xuan Ji’s previous words, the statue should be located in the central area of the city, and that is where Ye Li’s target is.
While Ye Li was moving forward in the city, he looked around. The buildings here were almost all abandoned, and some of the old shops had completely collapsed. It didn't look like there were any good things here.
Just as Ye Li was looking around, suddenly a series of footsteps sounded from behind the ruins next to him.
Ye Li turned his head and saw more than a dozen two-meter-tall giant metal puppet wolves rushing out from behind the ruins.
Ye Li had seen these giant wolves before. Their strength was very limited and they posed no threat to him at all.
Not even bothering to use talismans, an invisible fire burned on Ye Li's body, making his entire body hazy.
Ye Li's figure was like lightning as he rushed towards the giant puppet wolf.
A dazzling light emanated from the body of the puppet giant wolf, as if it were a lightsaber, slashing towards Ye Li madly.
However, these lightsabers could not get close to Ye Li's body at all. The attacks condensed by Yang Xing's spiritual energy were turned into nothing by the invisible fire before they even got close to Ye Li's body. The series of attacks did not even touch the corner of Ye Li's clothes.
Ye Li has become more and more proficient in the use of invisible fire recently. In his opinion, it won't be long before he can come up with a spell to match the invisible fire.
At that time, the invisible fire can be transformed into a talisman for attack and defense, and its power will be increased by several levels.
Ye Li flashed into the group of giant puppet wolves and waved his hands like a butterfly flying through flowers. Palm shadows instantly covered the giant wolves.
Every palm print that hits the giant wolf will carry the power of invisible fire, instantly burning the giant wolf's body.
Although the giant wolf's body is made of metal, the metal is not high-grade and the rune formation is not very ingenious, so its defensive capabilities are limited.
When Ye Li's Five Elements Fire burned on them, the metals quickly turned into liquid and began to flow down drop by drop.
Ye Li passed through the huge wave of puppets, and his five elements fire burned on the body of each giant wolf.
These giant wolves fell to the ground the moment they landed, their whole bodies like white wax burned by flames, quickly softening and finally melting into juice.
Ye Li looked at the melting giant wolf, and a hint of doubt rose in his heart. He said, "Senior Tunri, although Senior Xuanji said that the Tianyang clan created many puppets, can these puppets really run for tens of millions of years without stopping? If the people who created the puppets are gone, who can maintain and repair these puppets
In Senior Xuan Ji's story, in the war that year, the only puppet that humans fought against was the Tianyang Divine Puppet. It started as a war between humans, but ended up being a war between the remaining humans and the Tianyang Divine Puppet.
If humans still controlled the puppets at that time, then the puppets should have left the Tianyang Ancient City with the Tianyang clan.
After all, a fleeing team will definitely bring all their combat power with them in case of emergency.
So if the Tianyang Clan took all the puppets away, where did so many puppets in the Tianyang Ancient City come from!!!"
Ye Li expressed all his doubts in one breath, and Tunri was stunned after hearing it.
He thought for a moment and said, "Could it be that when the Tianyang Clan left, they still left a large number of puppets in the city to attack the Tianyang Divine Puppet?"
Ye Li shook his head upon hearing this and said, “I think it should be impossible. If the puppets left behind at that time were to delay the Tianyang Divine Puppet, then these puppets that received the attack order would definitely fight until they were broken.
After all, puppets have no intelligence, they will not choose to yield or surrender, they will only fight according to orders."
After hearing Ye Li's words, Tunri also felt that it was a bit unreasonable. Looking at the remains of the melted puppet wolf, a look of confusion appeared on his face.
The large number of puppets they encountered in the desert before, plus the puppets in the city, may have been a very large number. It is impossible that there are so many puppets left from the time they stayed in the city to fight against the Tianyang Divine Puppet.
"Could it be that... the Tianyang Divine Puppet escaped that year and was not in this city, so these puppets were not destroyed?"
Tunri had already started making wild guesses.
Ye Li showed an expression of noncommittal after hearing this. After thinking for a while, he said, "Let's not jump to conclusions easily. Let's see the situation first."
As he was speaking, several shrill bird calls were heard over the city. Ye Li looked up and saw a group of dozens of giant puppet eagles flying from the tops of several spires and swooping towards Ye Li.
These giant eagles are puppets of the city, so they are not restricted by the city’s no-fly formation and they can still fly and fight.
