Han Li seemed to have anticipated the attack of the giant ape puppet. The light of the Mysterious Apertures on his legs flashed, and his body immediately moved half a Zhang to the side, dodging the sweeping blow.

At the same time, a flash of white light, a snow-bright blade light as fast as lightning, slashed across the giant ape's neck.

With a "chi" sound!

A huge monkey head flew into the sky, and the body of the giant ape puppet fell downwards.

Although Han Li killed the giant ape puppet in one fell swoop, he couldn't avoid being hit by several long arrows and a giant rock.

With several loud bangs in succession, the long arrows and stones shattered, and the True Essence Membrane on Han Li's body vibrated, the starlight flickering wildly.

The arrows were nothing, but the giant rock contained extremely strong power, which penetrated the True Essence Membrane and poured into Han Li's body, stirring his blood and making him feel quite uncomfortable.

But now was not the time to worry about this. He took a deep breath and used the force to propel himself forward.

Looking at the endless ruins below and the constantly attacking puppets, Han Li couldn't help feeling a sense of despair in his heart.

Although his physical strength was not weak, after such a long battle, he was gradually reaching the end of his rope. All around were still endless puppets surrounding him. If he couldn't escape, he was afraid he would fall here today.

"Li Fellow Daoist, put me down and go yourself. You should be able to leave here alone," Shi Chuan Kong suddenly said.

Han Li didn't speak, but fully wielded his scimitar to parry the surrounding arrows.

The rain of arrows had just passed, and swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, puppet figures shot up from the ground like lightning, continuing to pounce on the two of them.

There was not the slightest fear on Han Li's face as he plunged straight into the puppet swarm, fighting fiercely.

Although the starlight on his body was not as bright as before, his movements were still extremely agile, like a fish swimming through the puppet swarm. A snow-bright blade light flashed, and puppets fell from the sky from time to time.

After fighting for half a day, he became more and more adept at dealing with the attacks of these puppets.

Han Li moved his body, dodging the attack of a tiger beast puppet, and with a wave of his arm, the snow-bright scimitar in his hand slashed across the puppet's neck, cutting off its head.

But at that moment, a blue shadow flashed in front of him, and two thick wolf-tooth clubs shot out from the gap in the puppet swarm ten feet in front of Han Li. They instantly reached Han Li and then swept towards Han Li's waist from left and right with lightning speed.

At the same time, two giant ape puppets leaped out from the puppet swarm behind him, and the giant clubs in their hands struck towards the back of his head with a "whoosh" sound.

The four giant ape puppets cooperated extremely cleverly, and the four giant clubs surrounded Han Li from all directions, instantly blocking all his escape routes.

Han Li's face turned cold, and with a movement of his arm, it turned into an afterimage. Countless white blade lights burst out from his hand, slashing towards the four giant clubs.

"Bang," "bang," the loud noises rang out endlessly, and the four giant clubs shot backwards, along with the four puppets being sent flying.

Han Li's body also shook greatly, and his face suddenly turned as pale as paper, without a trace of blood. The starlight on his body was in disarray, and his body faintly had a tendency to fall from the air.

But at this moment, the blood-colored key in his arms flashed with blood light, and a stream of blood-colored crystal light poured out from it and entered his body.

The blood light entered his body and immediately turned into a stream of scorching heat, which quickly roamed his whole body and merged into his limbs and bones.

This heat was somewhat different from the heat emitted by the key earlier. It seemed to be the power of blood, but also like the power of stars, and it was extraordinarily vast.

Wherever the heat passed, the fatigue generated by Han Li's previous battles instantly disappeared, his Yuan Qi instantly recovered, the Mysterious Apertures on his body shone brightly, and the True Essence Membrane on his body immediately returned to its previous state.

He was stunned for a moment, and then was overjoyed in his heart. With a movement of his arm, snow-bright blade lights, more than twice as large as before, emerged and swept towards all the puppets within a range of several dozen feet.

With the sound of "chi chi", almost all the rushing puppets were easily strangled by the blade light, including the four giant ape puppets.

"Li Fellow Daoist, how did you..." Shi Chuan Kong was shocked to see that Han Li, who had originally shown signs of fatigue, suddenly recovered his supernatural powers.

"Don't mention this, let's leave here first," Han Li said, and his body flew forward.

His Yuan Qi was fully restored, and his forward speed suddenly increased greatly.

In the blink of an eye, the two flew forward for another two or three hours.

A fiery red sandy land appeared in front of them, and the ruins stopped abruptly at the edge of the fiery red sandy land.

"Finally, it's the end!" Han Li's eyes lit up.

But at this moment, the puppets below all let out furious roars, unleashing a frenzied attack.

Those snake-headed puppets kept shooting out long arrows, covering the sky and heading towards Han Li and Shi Chuan Kong, while the other puppets did not fear being accidentally injured by the rain of arrows, and all leaped up to attack Han Li and the other.

Han Li let out a long roar, the starlight on his body shone brightly, and his body suddenly turned into a white phantom, flying and fighting in the puppet army. No matter how frantically the surrounding puppet army attacked and blocked, it could not make him stop.

Soon, with a "swoosh" sound, Han Li and Shi Chuan Kong flew out from the countless puppets and entered the fiery red sandy land.

For some reason, those puppets seemed afraid to step into the fiery red sandy land. They stopped at the edge of the sandy land, roaring at Han Li and Shi Chuan Kong until their figures disappeared into the distant horizon, before slowly dispersing.

Han Li and Shi Chuan Kong flew into the fiery red sandy land and flew forward for a meal's time. Seeing that the puppet army had not chased after them, they breathed a sigh of relief. They flew forward for a while before stopping and landing on the ground.

A scorching aura emanated from the ground, causing the nearby air to fluctuate slightly.

Although the temperature of the sandy land was quite high, it did not have much impact on Han Li and Shi Chuan Kong.

"It seems that those puppets dare not chase after us. Although this place is hot, the temperature is not too high and should not cause too much harm to those puppets. I don't know why they suddenly stopped," Shi Chuan Kong said with a look of doubt, glancing in the direction of the ruins.

"In my guess, those puppets are probably not unable, but dare not," Han Li said after a slight thought.

"Yes, that's probably the case," Shi Chuan Kong recalled the situation of those puppets just now and nodded.

"Let's not talk about this. Just now in the ruins, Shi Fellow Daoist didn't let me touch the yellow clouds in the sky. I don't know why?" Han Li looked up at the sky.

Here, a thick layer of yellow clouds also floated in the sky, and faint white lights could be seen flashing in the clouds.

"There is a powerful restriction in the clouds. People who touch it will be attacked by it," Shi Chuan Kong said, turning his hand and taking out a short knife.

The short knife was snow-white all over, and countless star runes were engraved on it, gently flashing. It was actually a Semi-Celestial Artifact that was no less inferior than the scimitar in Han Li's hand.

With a wave of his hand, the short knife immediately turned into a white light and shot into the sky, quickly touching the yellow clouds and disappearing into them.

The yellow clouds seemed to be stimulated. After a surge of tumbling, the white lights in the clouds gathered towards one place, and in the blink of an eye, they turned into a thick white lightning bolt and struck the short knife.

A thunderous roar!

The short knife instantly shattered and turned into nothing.

The white lightning quickly dissipated and turned back into countless white lights, disappearing into the yellow clouds.

Han Li was shocked to see this scene.

There was such terrible power in the yellow clouds in the sky. He was quite curious about the yellow clouds in the sky before and had thought about exploring them, but because of the situation, he didn't have time.

Fortunately, he didn't rashly explore, otherwise, he would be seriously injured if he was hit by that white lightning.

"How did Shi Fellow Daoist know about the power in the clouds?" Han Li quickly recovered his expression and asked.

"It was mentioned in the information given by Third Brother," Shi Chuan Kong said with a slightly dimmed expression.

"The Third Prince is exceptionally familiar with the situation in the Great Ruins. Could it be that he has been here before?" Han Li raised his eyebrows.

"I don't know about this," Shi Chuan Kong was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.

Han Li showed a pensive look and did not ask any more questions.

"This place seems quite safe. Let's rest here for a while, and then continue forward," Shi Chuan Kong suggested.

His face was still very pale, revealing a hint of fatigue.

Han Li glanced at Shi Chuan Kong and nodded.

After this dark and earth-shattering battle, he was indeed a little tired.

The two explored the surrounding environment and found nothing dangerous, so they each took out pills and sat down cross-legged to rest.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

"Shi Fellow Daoist, how is your injury?" Han Li asked.

"It's no longer a major problem and does not affect my actions. It will only take a period of time to recover," Shi Chuan Kong said with a smile, his complexion already greatly eased.

"That's good. If we encounter enemies next, Shi Fellow Daoist doesn't need to take action. Just heal your wounds in peace," Han Li nodded.

The two then discussed the next course of action. Neither of them knew anything about this fiery red sandy land, and they didn't know whether the depths were auspicious or ominous.

But returning to the ruins was obviously not an option. The two quickly made a decision to continue towards the depths of the fiery red sandy land.

The area of the fiery red sandy land was surprisingly large, completely exceeding their expectations. The two moved forward all the way, for more than two months, and still had not reached the end.

Along the way, there was neither danger nor any treasures. Apart from the red sand all over the ground, they encountered nothing.

"I didn't expect that there is such a vast place in the Great Ruins," Han Li galloped forward, stirring up a trail of crimson dust behind him.

"Could it be that we are going in the wrong direction and are heading towards the edge of the Great Ruins?" Shi Chuan Kong frowned, following closely beside Han Li.

The Great Ruins was filled with a strong Starlight Power, which was very beneficial for repairing injuries.

More than two months had passed, and the injuries in his body had completely healed.

"It shouldn't be. I can feel that the Starlight Power in the void here is slightly stronger than before. We should be heading deeper into the Great Ruins. Besides, changing direction now may not be the right thing to do. Let's just keep going forward. I don't believe we can't get out of here," Han Li said, looking at the distant sky.

"That's true," Shi Chuan Kong nodded upon hearing this.

"Huh!"

Han Li uttered a soft exclamation, stopped, looked forward, and his face lit up with joy.
