Time passed gradually, and the surroundings became quieter and quieter.
The sky gradually darkened, and the fog in the surroundings became thicker and thicker.
Old Li took out a small jade bottle from his pocket, and then he poured out a golden elixir and put it into his mouth.
It was the best Poison Prevention Elixir that Old Li always carried with him, and it was used to disperse the poison from the surrounding fog that invaded his body.
In fact, at his cultivation level, things like poison could be said to be a very small threat to him.
However, it was obvious that if he wanted to disperse the poison in his body, he would have to use his own strength to resist it. That was what Old Li didn't want to see, so he chose to use the Poison Prevention Elixir to detoxify himself.
Although the best Poison Prevention Elixir was very expensive, especially in the Muyun Domain where elixirs were scarce, a Poison Prevention Elixir like this would cost at least 100,000 Divine Gems.
For ordinary people, such consumption was absolutely not something they could afford. However, Old Li didn't care. He had lived for a very long time, and the accumulation of his wealth had reached a level that ordinary people couldn't imagine.
Although such consumption was relatively large, he could afford it.
It could be seen that Old Li really valued his life.
The surrounding vision started to gradually become blurry.
However, during this period of time, Li Qingzhu's team was like a spring that kept coming out.
Almost every once in a while, there would be people coming from afar, and the situation was exactly the same as before.
Everyone couldn't help but start to suspect that so many people were probably comparable to the number of people in an adventurer group. Could it be that the rumors were wrong? Did Li Qingzhu really go all out, and he brought the entire Dark Light Adventurer Group to explore the Ancient Mystery Land?
If that was really the case, then their operation this time could be considered a complete failure.
The Dark Light Adventurer Group already had the idea of expanding outwards. This exploration of the Eastern Ancient Mystery Land was what they said to the outside world, and it was their first step in going out.
Since they already had the idea of expanding outwards, then there was no doubt that the current headquarters could only be considered as a temporary place for them to stay.
If they went all out, it meant that they had no intention of returning.
What did this mean?
It meant that they had completely abandoned this area. Since they had already been abandoned, would they still leave their treasures here?
The answer was, of course, no!
If they guessed correctly, then it meant that Li Qingzhu, who had just passed by them, did indeed have the priceless treasures that they had been longing for day and night!
Of course, this also included the God Tier cultivation technique that Old Li wanted the most!
Thinking of this, Old Li's heart finally found it hard to keep calm!
But even now, he still doubted whether Li Qingzhu had really taken everyone away.
After all, it was absolutely foolish to abandon their original stronghold when they were unprepared and had yet to truly gain a foothold.
Because once they did that, they might become helpless. If the Dark Light adventurer team couldn't establish a foothold for a period of time, the Dark Light adventurer team would be doomed.
Li Qingzhu was a cautious person. The suffering he had experienced back then had made him very cautious. No one would believe that he would suddenly do such a crazy thing.
But if they didn't come out in full force, why would there be so many people on this road all of a sudden?
This path was the only way to the depths of the Mu Yun Territory, and very few people used it. Old Li didn't believe that there would be so many strangers walking outside for no reason today.
But if that was the case, everything that had just happened couldn't be explained.
"There must be something fishy about this!"
Old Li finally realized that something was wrong. He felt that everything that had happened today was very strange.
"I have to go and see the situation!"
At this time, no matter how patient he was, he couldn't continue to stay still.
Only by going to see the situation personally could he be completely relieved!
Thinking of this, his figure flashed, and he directly dashed out.
Under the cover of the thick fog, he flew in the direction that Li Qingzhu and the others had come from without leaving a trace.
Yes! He didn't tell anyone!
In his eyes, these people who followed him here were just tools that he used.
Although his lifespan was coming to an end, he was, after all, still a respected old man. The pride in his heart was difficult for ordinary people to understand.
In his eyes, these people were just a group of ants.
He didn't have the habit of reporting everything to these ants before he did anything.
Moreover, he didn't want to tell others what he planned to do now.
After all, he was the one who had made the decision to wait here and not to ambush them. If he was really schemed against in the end, he wouldn't be able to explain it.
Without a doubt, this kind of action like going to investigate the situation was denying the correctness of the decision that he had just made! It was like slapping his own face!
He was a person who cared about his reputation. He wouldn't do this kind of thing!
Actually, as time went by, his state of mind also showed changes. His originally calm heart had long become restless and restless. If someone dared to raise any objections at that time, then he would definitely make a move without hesitation and behead those people.
This was his way of protecting his dignity. Now that he secretly came over to investigate the situation, it was also his way of protecting his dignity.
Fortunately, the scene was still rather quiet just now. This made him very satisfied. In his opinion, this group of people still maintained absolute respect for him.
Even though they knew that they might have made a mistake, they didn't dare to say any dissatisfied words!
His speed was very fast. In the blink of an eye, he had already flown a distance of tens of miles.
However, what he saw next completely shocked him.
On the ground directly below him, he actually saw a huge pit! The pit was dark and without light. In the thick fog, it was like a ferocious beast opening its mouth, wanting to swallow people inside.
"This old man … This old man was deceived!"
He had lived for so many years and had rich life experience. The instant he saw this huge hole, he knew what happened.
From the beginning to the end, the people that he saw in the dark were only those few. The reason why he kept seeing them must be that group of people used some method to open up a tunnel. First, they walked to the front, then came back through the tunnel, then disguised as someone else and walked again.
In other words, all along, the other party had been going in circles here. And they were like fools, watching Li Qingzhu and the rest continuously going in circles here!
