He suddenly saw a faint light appear in front of his eyes, and after walking for another ten feet, the scene became clear and bright. He saw that there was a staircase that led to a depth of fifty feet below the ground, and inside, there was actually a large meeting hall. Around it, there were two rows of tables and chairs, and in the middle of the hall, there was a large cloud bed. Under the dim light, Xiao Li looked at his surroundings and saw that there were three doors on his left and right. As for what exactly was inside, no one knew.

Xiao Li inspected his surroundings but didn't find anyone. Thus, he carefully descended the stone steps and arrived at the main hall. He checked the lobby a few times, but didn't find any hidden traps, so he went to the first door on the left. The door was so sealed that he couldn't see what was going on inside.

Xiao Li thought, "If Xiao Ying is locked up here, it would be too scary. You have to know that she is a little girl." If he were to be locked in this dark place all day, even he would be scared and go crazy.

Xiao Li carefully examined the surroundings of the door, but didn't find any mechanism to open it. He raised his hand and pushed against the door. There was no reaction from the door at all. Xiao Li immediately channeled his inner force into his palm and pushed on the door again, but there was no response. Xiao Li scratched his head. The little monkey said that the control mechanism must have a control mechanism. He thought that it must be hidden in a dark room, so after entering it, he must first destroy the control mechanism so that he wouldn't be trapped or killed by powerful mechanisms. Xiao Li believed that the central hub would be these stone chambers. Therefore, he wanted to destroy them before searching properly to see if he could find the little red light.

Seeing that he was unable to open the stone door, Xiao Li tried the other stone doors but the result was the same. When Xiao Li saw this, he thought, "Maybe I was wrong, or there is a mechanism in the hall that controls the stone door." He looked around carefully, but he still couldn't find anything. He couldn't help but feel anxious.

Even though he had entered the secret chamber, he realized that his power was so weak that it was blocked by a small stone door. How could he save Ying? Xiao Li was shocked as he thought about this. He had to calm down and think carefully about what to do.

Xiao Li walked back and forth in the main hall until he suddenly saw the bed in the middle, and unconsciously sat down on it. Holding his chin in his hand, he thought hard for a while, and finally came up with a few strategies: Firstly, if someone were to use brute force to break open the stone door, it might not be a big success, and it might even cause a commotion, so it would be undesirable; secondly, if he were to find a place to hide and eavesdrop a few words on the Master and the other elders, it would be convenient for him to do things in the future. When he thought of killing someone, he couldn't help but feel a little strange. Thus, no matter how he thought about it, the second method was still possible.

Thinking of this, he patted the armrest on the bed and decided that he would get up and find a place to hide. Suddenly, he felt a strong slap on the armrest of his bed. His hand felt that one of the armrests was not reliable so he lowered his head to check it.

Unknowingly, he was overjoyed and cheered in a low voice, "So the secret mechanism was actually hidden here. No wonder we couldn't find it even after searching the hall."

Surprisingly, Xiao Li found a mechanism button on the bed. He pressed it lightly and the third door on the right opened. As Xiao Li flew over, he used the dim light to faintly see the rows of objects inside the room. Because they were too far away, he couldn't see them clearly.

Immediately, Xiao Li walked into the stone room. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that the weapons were placed on the shelves. There were a total of three weapons racks. On the racks, there weren't many weapons. Each rack only had three blades. There were three swords on the first rack. One of them was shaped like a bronze scabbard with seven emeralds embedded in it. From its earliest to most, it was a Big Dipper. This seemed to be the sword of the seventh brother of the 'Star Gazing Seven', 'Moon Splitting Star'. How could it appear here? When Xiao Li saw the sword, suspicion arose in his heart. He immediately stretched his hand out to pick up the sword to examine it.

When Xiao Li picked up the treasured sword, there was suddenly a crisp sound in the hall, causing him to turn around in shock. He saw the stone door of the stone room quickly closing, and he was greatly alarmed. He reached out to place the sword in his hand on the rack, and the stone door's closing slowed down. At this moment, his upper body had already left the stone door. With a boom, the stone door closed.

Xiao Li was so shocked that cold sweat broke out all over his body. If he had been that slow just now, he would have been strangled to death in the stone door. He didn't dare to tarry any longer. He was afraid that he would alert the people in the inner hall with the mechanism, so he immediately flew to the bedside of the bed to find the other mechanisms to open the other stone doors to check if Ying was trapped here.

He had discovered six identical mechanisms on the armrest of the bed, one on each side. At that time, he didn't dare to open them one by one. He only wanted to open one to check the situation. Now, he discovered that there was no danger and immediately activated all the other mechanisms. He wanted to check them one by one, but just as he opened the stone door, a black shadow suddenly shot towards him.

Startled, Xiao Li jumped to the left to dodge the attack. The black shadow saw that he had avoided the attack, so it ignored him and turned to the stone room on the right. He quickly circled the three stone rooms to the right, and only then did Xiao Li come back to his senses.

Seeing how fast the other party was moving and how he seemed to be looking for something, he realized that the other party had probably been following behind him the entire time, trying to find something through him. However, no matter how much he thought about it, Xiao Li still didn't know how he could help Fang Xingjian find what he needed. However, Xiao Li didn't have the time to think about it right now.

When Xiao Li saw that he had finished inspecting the stone room on the right, he immediately went forward to stop him and prevent him from entering the stone room on the left. When that person saw Xiao Li flying towards him and blocking his path, he immediately struck out with his palm without saying a word. His palm carried a strong wind and actually struck out, attracting the enemy's life.

At this moment, Xiao Li completely lost all of his worries and immediately launched a fierce counterattack. He originally didn't know whether to keep his hands together or not as he put his hands together and pointed out with his index and index fingers. It was a venomous snake spitting out a tongue, aiming at the acupoints on the opponent's palm.

If Xiao Li were to strike, then that person's palm would be instantly crippled. When that person saw Xiao Li's fierce counterattack, he did not dare to take it head on. Instead, he moved his body to dodge Xiao Li's finger attack while simultaneously striking Xiao Li's chest and lower abdomen with his two palms. Xiao Li, on the other hand, swung his body as though he had suddenly turned into a weak and boneless body. He placed his legs together on the ground and shot his body to the left side of the other party, still standing in the same position without moving.

That black-clothed man didn't expect Xiao Li's martial arts to be so strange. With a snort, he arrived at his left side and caught Xiao Li off guard. He quickly sent a palm strike towards Xiao Li's head, hoping to surround Wei Li and save Zhao.

Xiao Li twisted his body, his legs once again pulling on the ground. He suddenly appeared behind the black clothed man again, and attacked his back with the same move.

The black clothed man was restrained by Xiao Li's strange movement technique. He actually had nowhere to use his abilities to do so. Being forced into a state of chaos, he could only use his defensive capabilities. He was completely in a passive position. Xiao Li was flying up and down around him, but his technique was still the same as before. The left, the right, the right, the front, the strange and unpredictable.

The black clothed man was abnormally angry. An expert like him had never been killed in a single move by a single person. He had no way of fighting back, unless the opponent was much stronger than him and was playing a trick on him. However, it was obvious that Xiao Li's movement technique was strange and there was nothing special about his moves. Yet, he couldn't keep up with the speed of Xiao Li's strange movements. How could this not make him upset?

From the time he had been in charge until now, the black clothed man had already received more than thirty strikes from Xiao Li, each of them aimed at attacking where he had to be saved before he could catch his breath. After over thirty moves, the black clothed man unleashed his true flames. Seeing Xiao Li point at him, he didn't even bother to point at him and just used his two fingers to clash head on with Xiao Li's.

Seeing that his opponent was no longer able to win with a surprise move, Xiao Li did not try to dodge and instead used both of his fingers to increase his strength to meet the blow. With a "chi" sound, the two of them faced off against each other. This was their first move since the beginning of the fight.

The man in black retreated quickly and shouted angrily, "It's you!"

When Xiao Li heard the voice of the black clothed person, he immediately realized who it was. The man in black turned out to be Old Zhao. Xiao Li was speechless and nodded his head. He knew that Old Zhao had found out from his inner force that he was the one who saved Little Monkey that day.

Old Zhao coldly said, "Old man, you are really wrong. I didn't expect a mute like you to be a master with exceptional skills. Why did you save Little Monkey? Could it be that he is the spy that you sent to Lou Guang Sect?"

Xiao Li shook his head. Since he couldn't say anything, he could only nod and reply with a shake of his head.

Old Zhao sneered, "No matter who you are, it's better for us to stick together. Otherwise, it'll be too late. You've already activated the mechanism in the stone room, so someone is already rushing here."

Xiao Li shook his head, disagreeing.

Old Zhao said, "Why? Could it be that you want to take all the benefits for yourself? You need to know that all of us are doing this for that secret scripture.

Xiao Li waved his hand and gestured at himself, indicating that the secret manual was not what he wanted.

Old Zhao and him had been together for some time, so he could roughly guess what Old Zhao meant. He immediately rejoiced, "Since the manual is not what you want, then it's even better. Let's each take what we need."

Xiao Li shook his head again and gestured, indicating that he didn't mind if everyone went their own way. However, you have been following me around, wanting me to be a scapegoat for death. You wanted to kill me earlier, so I won't let you get the manual.

Old Zhao felt a great headache coming on. When he sneaked an attack earlier, he wanted to take the manual for himself. At the same time, he could use Xiao Li's corpse to make a big fuss and make the people in the altar point their spears elsewhere. If he knew that Xiao Li was the person who had used the little monkey's hands to injure him, he definitely wouldn't have sneak attacked him.

With Old Zhao's cautious personality, he couldn't wait to join hands with an expert like Old Zhao. His goal was just the Lou Guang Sect's secret scripture, so he didn't mind as long as he had a copy of it.

After a moment of silence, Old Zhao said, "Brother, why do you need to do this? Knowing that a stalemate would not benefit anyone, there was always a way to resolve the situation. If there was anything you wanted, you could just ask for it. I believe that the people in the altar are rushing over right now.

Just as Xiao Li was about to reply, a voice came from the cave entrance, "It's too late. We're already here." The two of them immediately looked towards the entrance of the cave and saw five people standing at the top of the stone steps. One of them was Foreign Dignitary Hong.

Old Zhao immediately said in a low voice, "It's all your fault, no one can even think of getting their hands on it now."

Xiao Li stood there quietly with a bitter feeling in his heart. He had not come here to find something, he just wasn't willing to be used by Old Zhao. However, when he saw Foreign Dignitary Hong, he knew that he had probably put them to good use.

The person on the stone steps laughed and said, "You are right. You were just wishful thinking to come to my main altar to steal my secret scripture. Don't you know that there is no way back when you are inside the tiger's cave? Do you want us to fight or do you want us to surrender? To tell you the truth, we've been waiting for you. "

Old Zhao heard his question and his voice turned colder. "What?" Could it be that you intentionally spread false information? "

The person in the middle of the stone steps seemed to be the leader, and the one who spoke was him. The leader said, "We did release the news on purpose, but it's not fake. In order to draw out your hidden cancer in the altar, I'm afraid you won't be able to use fake information. "

Old Zhao coldly said, "You are really good at scheming!"

That person laughed loudly and said, "Of course. Otherwise, how could I hook up with you old foxes?"

Xiao Li understood in his heart that this was all part of the Lou Clan's plan. They intentionally spread the rumor that there was a secret scripture of the 'Star Gazing Palm' in the main altar. It was an important treasure that only the Altar Lord could learn from. In fact, they knew that all the sects had spies in their society, so they used this method to lure the snake out of its cave. In order to confirm whether the news was true or false, the various sects would definitely use these spies. At the same time, they would allow them to try to steal the secret manuals. Sure enough, Old Zhao had revealed his true form. There would probably be more people who would be exposed in the future. Xiao Li smiled wryly as he thought about this. It was just a coincidence that he had become their chess piece and was being used by these people. The reason Foreign Dignitary Hong told him this news so readily was probably because he wanted to use him as a vanguard to investigate the secrets of the entire altar.

Indeed, Foreign Dignitary Hong opened his mouth and said: "Great Elder, why are you telling them so much? Let's capture them first before slowly interrogating them."

Old Zhao suddenly laughed out loud and said, "With just the few of you wanting to capture him, isn't this way too wishful thinking?"

The person who spoke was the Head Elder of the main altar. He also laughed out loud and said: "You sure have a lot of words, I don't know if there is anything that you can take out."

Old Zhao coldly snorted, "You'll know after you fight." Suddenly, he waved his right hand and pointed at Xiao Li. When Xiao Li saw his movements, he was startled. He didn't expect Xiao Li to attack him at this moment. When Old Zhao waved his hand, Xiao Li knew that something strange was going to happen, so he dodged to the side.

That item directly hit the ground, and with a loud bang, it exploded. Xiao Li didn't expect that the thing would actually explode. He immediately suffered a hidden loss as he was blown into the air and flew back a few meters. His clothes also exploded. The moment the object exploded, a large amount of smoke immediately exploded out. The smoke spread very quickly and enveloped Xiao Li and Old Zhao in the blink of an eye.

Tomorrow at 30, I wish everyone a happy family and a happy reunion.
