Li Yuanqing continued down the river. However, no matter how long he spent walking, he felt that the river seemed to be gradually shrinking, but there was no end to it.

This gradually narrow but seemingly stagnant feeling made Li Yuanqing gradually wary. Everything he saw in front of him was real and fake, but it was not all an illusion. What kind of power was this?

After wasting a long time without any results, the Blood Vine came out again and whispered, “Master, in my opinion, we should leave quickly. This place is getting more and more mysterious. Don’t you feel that the yin energy beside us is getting heavier and heavier? If this continues, the two of us will really be in danger.”

Li Yuanqing indeed felt an oppressive force gradually spreading. This energy was very strong. As he walked forward, the pressure of this power became stronger. Perhaps it was really as he said. If he continued like this, he really did not know what he would encounter.

However, if he did not cut off the opening below, the devils would continue to appear. The crisis here would never be resolved. It was not a good thing for him.

At this moment, a black hand had appeared on the river surface under Li Yuanqing’s feet. After this hand appeared, it secretly reached up, as if it wanted to catch Li Yuanqing off guard.

Li Yuanqing’s eyes flickered slightly. He pretended not to notice anything and continued to look around.

The hand was vaguely smug. It was about to succeed, but the human in front of it still did not notice it. The big hand sped up and reached for Li Yuanqing’s ankle, wanting to grab it and pull him into the river.

However, just as he was about to touch Li Yuanqing, a strong light suddenly appeared on Li Yuanqing’s leg, piercing a few holes in that hand. After the light passed, a large hand grabbed that wrist and pulled the devil out.

The devil let out a scream and was pulled out of the river by Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing looked down at the thing in his hand. This fellow’s entire body was twisted and he kept struggling. However, the more he struggled, the stronger Li Yuanqing’s control became. It suppressed his entire body until it was shattered, like a broken ceramic doll.

His screams were like some special magic that kept attacking their eardrums.

“Why are there so many devils in this place? Could it be that the real entrance is not far from here?”

The Blood Vine sneaked out again and looked at the miserable devil in front of him. He was a little excited. If they could really find the entrance, it would save them a lot of trouble. They could just smash that stone tablet and save a lot of trouble. It was much better than the two of them running around like headless flies.

Li Yuanqing questioned the devil in his hand, “Where is the entrance? Hurry up and fess up!”

Seeing that he could not escape, the devil suddenly let out a scream. His entire body twisted violently and vaguely expanded. This expansion could actually break through Li Yuanqing’s seal.

Li Yuanqing cursed in his heart and hurriedly retreated with the Blood Vine. He also threw the devil in his hand into the air.

This devil, which was equivalent to a first-stage Formation Arrangement Realm human, chose to self-destruct just like that. It ignited its entire body and wanted to die with Li Yuanqing.

However, Li Yuanqing reacted in time and threw it aside. The Blood Vine gasped when he saw the devil explode into black fireworks in midair.

Now the two of them had retreated for several miles. Even though they were so far away, the aftershock of the explosion still affected the two of them. If not for Li Yuanqing’s defense in advance, that devil might have been able to cause some damage to the two of them.

“Master, look, we’re just casually capturing such a devil, but it can already pose such a huge threat to us. If we really reach the territory of the devils, can the two of us still come out alive?”

The Blood Vine even wanted to give up on his master and run away himself. However, if his master died, he would also die. The contract they had signed tied their lives together.

Li Yuanqing seemed to have discovered something and walked forward again, returning to where he was just now.

The river water seemed to have some kind of magic that isolated his thoughts, preventing his divine sense from sensing the situation below.

He waited here for a while. As expected, another devil appeared from below not long after. This devil attacked him without a word, but Li Yuanqing was already prepared and controlled this devil.

Moreover, he decisively defeated the power of the devil.

These devils were essentially energy bodies. Their bodies were filled with pure power, so these guys were very powerful. They were also very proficient in using and controlling power.

This was also what made the devils terrifying.

However, it was precisely because of this characteristic that after Li Yuanqing grasped their habits, he immediately dispersed their entire energy structure. This way, they would have no way to organize a decent attack.

They could not even self-destruct like just now.

Just like that, Li Yuanqing waited for a long time before more than ten devils appeared. These devils were all powerful. No wonder they could attack Sea City in such a short period of time.

In the face of such strength, the demon guards of Sea City were as fragile as paper.

Li Yuanqing stared at the river silently. Blood Vine vaguely realized what his master wanted to do and his heart suddenly tightened.

“Master, this won’t do!” The Blood Vine hurriedly stopped him. “You saw it just now. This river water is only filled with mist, but it can already spontaneously form such a powerful illusion. Wouldn’t we be courting death if we really ran into this river water?

“There’s poison inside. It’s impossible for us to run in with our bodies. We’ll immediately be corroded after entering. Master, although you’re powerful, I’m afraid you’re nothing in front of this river.”

Blood Vine was extremely anxious. He said a lot of things to Li Yuanqing, trying his best to dissuade him from doing such dangerous actions. It was fine if it was just above, but if they really wanted to enter the river, it felt like they were courting death. It was unknown how many devils there were.

Li Yuanqing took out a small black pearl. This small pearl was very spirited. Although it was completely black, if one looked carefully, they would feel that there was some very deep liquid flowing inside.

Li Yuanqing put the Blood Vine into his domain and swallowed the Water Repelling Pearl.

Under special circumstances, most of the time, it was to deal with normal river water. Facing this big river, the effect of the river water inside was naturally weaker, but it could also provide some protection.

What Li Yuanqing wanted was the effect of his water protection.

After Li Yuanqing swallowed the pearl, he turned around and entered the river.

When the river water encountered it, it was as if it had encountered a very terrifying natural enemy. It took the initiative to avoid it. Li Yuanqing seemed to be separated from the river by an air barrier.

Although there would still be poisonous gas emitted from the river from time to time, it would not pose a threat to Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing kept heading down with this barrier. As he went further, he realized that the demons were coming from all directions.

However, after reaching the bottom, it seemed to gradually focus on a central point. Li Yuanqing had vaguely sensed that he had already come into contact with some truth.

The end of the river was not at the end of the river at all, but at the bottom of the river.

Just now, at a certain moment, layers appeared on the river. It was when the layers appeared that the door came out.

As Li Yuanqing walked, he killed all the devils that passed by. He was not in the mood to play with these guys now. He casually dealt with them and continued down.

After diving down for thousands of meters, he suddenly realized that the space below had become wider. The river above was only a few hundred meters wide, but the space below was really as wide as a certain sea.

When Li Yuanqing saw this, he already knew that he had found the answer. There was a dark abyss below, and those devils kept emerging from it.

At the bottom of the riverbed, Li Yuanqing quietly looked at the huge hole that was hundreds of meters in diameter. The edge of the hole was very irregular. It was so dark that he could not see anything inside, and he did not know how it was formed.

From time to time, devils would rush out and swim up excitedly. But Li Yuanqing did not give them a chance to escape. He watched as these fellows came out and killed them like chickens. When these devils’ bodies dissipated, black crystals would fall one by one. These black crystals contained pure energy. They were the core of their bodies.

After watching for a while and finally confirming the use of this place, Li Yuanqing no longer hesitated and jumped into the deep pit.

The pit exploded like a drop of water falling into a pot of oil.

The dark cave was originally very quiet, but after Li Yuanqing went down, screams immediately came from inside.

The devils who had just come out were fantasizing about the new day they were about to welcome. They were already competing so hard in their own world that their heads were bleeding. When they arrived at the new world, it would naturally open up.

The brothers waiting in front of them to scout the way gave good reviews of the new world. However, what awaited them was not a good life. Instead, a God of Slaughter was guarding the exit.

Li Yuanqing dived down as he killed.

It was a thousand meters deep. When he reached the bottom of the river, he finally saw something that looked like a dry well.

This well had a circular hole with a very huge stone tablet on it. The stone tablet was rectangular in shape and had a circular base. It was the lid of this deep well. Originally, the lid covered and blocked the well. However, there was a crack in the lid now. From this ten-meter-long crack, devils kept running out.

There were words engraved on the black stone.

“Heaven and Earth Stone Tablet”

Li Yuanqing heaved a long sigh of relief. He had finally found this thing. At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

[Sign-in successful at the entrance to the Devil Realm! Reward received!]

[Reward One: 100 Vitality Reinforcement Pills!]

[Reward Two: One Devil Realm Codex!]

“Choose the Demon Realm Codex!”

[Reward sent. Congratulations on obtaining a Demon Realm Codex.]

When Li Yuanqing woke up from his daze, he saw a small group of devils in front of him.

These devils looked at Li Yuanqing in surprise, as if they could not understand why such a human would appear here. This person was standing here openly. How did he get here? It was really puzzling.

The devils could not figure it out, but this human was fresh meat to them. They had not eaten such fresh meat for a long time. Today was the day they celebrated their victory and they could have a full meal here.

“Brothers, I didn’t expect there to be a human for us to eat the moment we came out. It seems that the brothers in front are right!”

“Hahaha! I can’t wait.”

The devil team rubbed their fists and prepared to cut Li Yuanqing into pieces so that they could split him up.

However, their smug smiles would not last forever. These people looked at the harmless Li Yuanqing and attacked. However, the moment they attacked was the moment they regretted it.

Li Yuanqing waved his hand and a huge traction force came from every finger. The devils were like puppets with strings pulled as they were held firmly in Li Yuanqing’s hand.

In just a moment, these people were completely controlled by Li Yuanqing. Their entire bodies did not listen to them and were frozen as if they were possessed. They would only move when Li Yuanqing gave the order.

“What happened?”

“Why can’t I move?”

They would never have the chance to leave this place again.
