The secret passage was very wide, with bright lights underneath, and stone steps extending deep into the underground.
When Ye Li saw the statue move away, a smile immediately appeared on his face. His rune key was indeed correct.
He quickly walked down the underground stairs, and Ye Li's figure soon disappeared into the cave under the statue.
After coming down the stairs, a very wide passage appeared in front of Ye Li.
There were crystal lamps on both sides of the passage, making this underground passage appear very bright.
Ye Li walked towards the front of the passage. His Eye of Origin had been secretly opened and was scanning the surroundings to find possible hidden rune formation mechanisms.
After all, this is the Qi family's treasure house, and Ye Li doesn't believe that there is no mechanism here.
Just as Ye Li took a step forward, his feet suddenly softened, as if he had sensed something moving, and a sound of a spring was heard.
Before Ye Li could react, hundreds of long black needles shot out from the surrounding walls.
These long black needles emitted a faint blue light and a spicy smell, obviously they were coated with a highly poisonous substance.
The speed of this long needle flying out was extremely fast, and the force was obviously enormous, so fast that Ye Li didn't have time to react.
All the long needles locked onto the area where he was standing. Ye Li only had time to close his eyes before a series of crackling sounds came from all over his body.
Basically all the long needles hit his body, leaving little white marks on his body.
Judging from the strength of the long needle, its power has at least reached that of the concentration stage. This kind of spring is obviously made by a special person, otherwise it would be impossible to emit such tremendous power.
Moreover, Ye Li also recognized the material of the long needle. Once the long needle made of this material encountered the spiritual shield, it would explode immediately, making a loud noise and releasing even greater destructive power.
The defensive effect of this thing is undoubtedly very strong. Once the invader fails to release defensive spells to protect himself, he will have no time to react when the mechanism is activated.
Considering the physical strength of the talisman master, even a master at the level of Talisman Master would be stabbed to death by these long needles if he came in.
If someone who has activated a defensive talisman comes in, the long needle will immediately explode after piercing the spiritual energy on the talisman, making a loud noise and an even more powerful attack.
This attack can not only strike a blow to the enemy, but also send out a warning to inform the Qi family that someone has invaded the treasure house.
But it happened that the person the Qi family met this time was Ye Li. Ye Li's physical strength had far exceeded the concentration period. Even without using the defensive talisman, this kind of spring would not cause any damage to him.
Ye Li could see that although this mechanical spring was powerful, its attack range had to be very close. Once it was far away, the power of the long needle would quickly decrease with distance.
Considering his physical strength, even if he was hit by the long needle while facing the mechanism, there would not be any scar, so the long needle became useless.
Ye Li did not release any defensive spell, so the long needle did not explode, and his invasion was naturally not discovered by the Qi family.
He shook his body, and the few long needles that were stuck in his clothes all fell to the ground. Ye Li took a step forward and continued to walk forward.
He already understood the defensive measures of the Qi family treasure house, so he was more careful in his actions.
There were no rune formations around, Ye Li had already checked it out, so he only needed to pay attention to the mechanism under his feet.
The mechanism was embedded in the stone slabs underground. From Ye Li's perspective, it was not too difficult to distinguish. As long as he looked carefully before taking a step, he would definitely not step on the mechanism.
Continuing forward, Ye Li walked to the end of the passage. Along the way, he encountered three more mechanisms. These three mechanisms were in different positions to prevent someone from being lucky enough to avoid the previous mechanisms.
After Ye Li avoided all the traps, he walked out of the passage and a big door suddenly appeared in front of him.
There is a sand curtain hanging at the entrance of this gate, and earth-based spiritual energy is flowing between the sand curtains. All of this fine sand is condensed by the earth-based spiritual energy formation, turning into fine sand and falling from the top of the gate, and finally disappearing into the floor below the gate.
This formation is a well-known means of defending a treasure house. If no specific treasure is worn on the body, as long as someone touches the sand with a part of the body, the flow of the sand curtain will be affected.
As long as there is a break in the flow of sand in a very small area on the ground, an early warning will be issued immediately, and the Qi family will know that someone has invaded.
This sand curtain is also to guard against those who are very lucky and can avoid the previous four mechanisms. After all, the treasure that can pass through the sand curtain is definitely in the hands of the head of the Qi family.
Only by holding this treasure can one enter the Sand Curtain without raising an alarm.
Trying to get the treasure from the head of the Qi family is no different from directly robbing the Qi family, so this sand curtain is quite useful as a last resort.
Ye Li was also a little troubled at this time. He stood in front of the sand curtain, frowning and observing his surroundings.
At this time, he had opened the Eye of Origin again and was observing the operation of the sand curtain's rune formation.
After looking for a long time, Ye Li still couldn't find the flaw in the operation of the rune formation, because the formation was hidden in the gate. If Ye Li wanted to destroy the formation, he had to attack the gate directly.
Attacking the gate would trigger the sand curtain and sound an alarm, so it would be impossible to solve the problem by force.
"Ye Li, what should we do now? This sand curtain is not so easy to break through!!!"
Tunri said.
Ye Li did not answer Tunri's words, but continued to observe the operation of the sand curtain intently, as if he was thinking about something.
After watching for a while, Ye Li suddenly said, "Senior Tunri, these sand curtains fell from above and then fell into the ground, right?!"
Tunri was stunned when he heard this. It was the same as if Ye Li hadn't said anything. It was obvious.
"What do you want to say?"
Tunri knew that Ye Li wouldn’t be talking nonsense, he must have discovered something.
Ye Li said: "As long as we can make the sand continue to fall into the ground, it doesn't matter if we block the sand curtain!"
As he spoke, a look of joy suddenly appeared in Ye Li's eyes, as if he had figured out something and found a solution.
Tunri still didn't react when he heard Ye Li's words. After blocking the sand curtain, the sand would no longer be able to continue falling into the ground in the original way.
If this is the case, the alarm will sound immediately and Ye Li's infiltration will be discovered.
Just when Tunri was confused, Ye Li had already walked in front of the sand curtain. With just one step, he could step directly into the sand curtain.
