After exploring the situation outside, Ye Li flew towards the depths of Hongshi Ridge. He and Xiaoqing were above the clouds, and with their extremely strong eyesight, they could clearly see the situation below.
Soon, Ye Li noticed a lake in the Red Stone Ridge. The lake looked a little strange. There was very little water in the lake. Judging from the traces on the lakeside, the water level had dropped to almost half of its level.
In the center of the lake, there is a palace that is half exposed.
The hall was not submerged in water, but was covered by a huge protective shield.
Judging from the size of this protective shield, it seems to cover a large area. I think there should be more than one palace under the water, and there should be other buildings as well.
"It seems that the ruins are under the water. The people from the Heavenly Soul Society should be trying to drain the water. Otherwise, even if the defense shield is breached, the water will rush into the ruins. If important things are washed away, the Heavenly Soul Society will have worked in vain!"
Ye Li said to Xiao Qing.
Xiao Qing nodded and said, "Then Ye Li, should we wait in the sky, or do you sneak in?"
Ye Li thought for a moment and said, "I'd better sneak in first. This place is still a bit far away, and the situation here is not very clear!"
Hearing Ye Li's words, Xiao Qing turned her body and glided to the side, and soon arrived outside Hongshi Ridge.
After jumping off Xiaoqing's back, Ye Li landed in a forest some distance away from Hongshi Ridge.
After all, there are many masters in the Tianhun Society. If Ye Li lands close to Hongshi Ridge, he will most likely be discovered by people from the Tianhun Society.
After waiting for Xiaoqing to return to the sky, Ye Li began to walk towards Hongshi Ridge.
Ye Li moved quickly and arrived at the Hongshiling area in no time.
The defenses set up by Hongshiling were useless to Ye Li. He was like a ghost, moving through the woods.
Ye Li didn't even use the secret water-casting method, and he had already sneaked into the woods of the red stone forest.
The disciples of the Tianhun Society who were in charge of outer security were probably just trying to prevent passers-by from breaking in, and they never thought that any experts would come here.
When Ye Li passed by them not far away, these people didn't notice any movement at all.
After all, Ye Li’s strength has been greatly enhanced in the Tower of Babel, his physical toughness has increased, and his body has become more agile and nimble.
At this time, the Five Elements Egg on Ye Li's chest was completely filled with the original Five Elements Qi, which meant that he had the ability to release three more Five Elements Divine Lights.
Ye Li took a deep breath, and his body slid along the ground. He seemed to have disappeared. He passed through the mountains and forests, and soon passed the defense network set up by the Tianhun Society members, and came to the edge of the lake in the middle of the mountains.
Ye Li found an extremely hidden pit in the mountain and hid inside it, then looked towards the lake.
By the lake, a group of people from the Tianhun Society were gathered together, seemingly discussing something.
Ye Li was at such a distance that he naturally couldn't hear their conversation, but he could see Dongfang Caiyi's figure in the crowd.
In addition, Ye Li can also see Tiankui.
These two semi-saints should be the strongest leaders of the Tianhun Society’s operation this time. The remaining few members of the Thirty-Six Elders of Tiangang are all at the peak of the Talisman Saint level.
Ye Li seemed to vaguely see the figure of the First Talisman Saint. He was not wearing a face mask, but was wearing the costumes of the Thirty-Six Elders of Tiangang. Now he has replaced the position of the dead Tian An.
Seeing the existence of the First Talisman Saint, Ye Li was also a little surprised, but now he is not afraid of the First Talisman Saint.
No matter how powerful the First Talisman Saint is, he is no match for him. Now, in a one-on-one situation, he can easily kill the opponent.
Ye Li, hiding in the dark, looked at Dongfang Caiyi. Judging from Dongfang Caiyi's last performance, she had forgotten about Ye Li again.
Even in her memory, Ye Li was her mortal enemy.
Ye Li was guessing the same thing in his mind, and felt a little heartbroken.
He had always been trying to find an opportunity to rescue Dongfang Caiyi, but he never succeeded.
It seemed that it was almost successful last time, but the Holy Envoy intervened.
The Holy Envoy's strength was too terrifying. Even though Ye Li tried his best, he was no match for him. In the end, he could only watch Dongfang Caiyi disappear in front of him.
Dongfang Caiyi is now also a semi-saint, so the gap between her and Ye Li will not be too big when fighting.
If Ye Li fought with Dongfang Caiyi, he would definitely be restrained and would find it difficult to use his full fighting strength.
Under such circumstances, it was too difficult to capture Dongfang Caiyi alive. Ye Li had no chance to catch Dongfang Caiyi and feed her the Soul Purifying Water again.
With a helpless sigh, Ye Li could only suppress the waves in his heart and choose to wait for an opportunity.
Only when he waits for the most suitable opportunity will he be able to rescue Dongfang Caiyi from the clutches of the Tianhun Society.
… … … … … …
At the lakeside, Dongfang Caiyi and her group looked at the center of the lake with serious expressions.
“You did a good job getting this news.
I never thought that the Zen Forest Department that split off from Prajna Mountain back then would actually hide things here!!!"
Tian Kui said to several other members of the Tianhun Society.
Dongfang Caiyi stood by and listened quietly. Considering her age, she didn't know much about Prajna Mountain's past. It was the first time she heard about the fact that Prajna Mountain had once experienced separatist behavior.
Hearing Tian Kui's words, an old man from the Tianhun Society beside him smiled and said, "Master Tian Kui, we also got the news by chance from a descendant of the Chanlin Department.
At that time, Prajna Mountain thought that all the people in the Zen Forest Department had died, but who knew that there were actually a small number of descendants who survived.
These descendants hid all the news about the ruins, and now they have become almost ordinary people.
We also found the clues by accident, and then we got the news from these descendants, solved the puzzle left by the Zen Forest Department, and finally found this place.
However, this site is submerged in lake water. If we don’t divert the lake water away, the site will not be revealed.”
Tian Kui said: "Then you should move faster. After such a long time, the lake water has not been diverted away yet?"
The old man said, "Don't worry, sir. We will soon divert all the water away from the lake. There are many water inlets to this lake, and it took us some time to find them all.
If we just divert the water from the inlet to somewhere else, the lake will soon dry up."
Hearing his words, Tian Kui nodded, with a satisfied look on his face. (To be continued)
