Chapter 402 The Land of Giants (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

"Doing business is not as quick as robbing!"

Li Yunjing sighed softly. He took out a sea chart, located his coordinates, and began to check if there were any lairs of third-tier demon kings nearby.

"On the left is 'Sky Eagle Island,' the territory of the bird race. On the right is another island, 'Rhinoceros Island,' which was established by the descendants of the ancient Kui Niu."

The Tianluo Dao Sect is ambitious and wants to dominate the East Sea, so the information on the sea chart is very detailed. After reading it, Li Yunjing immediately understood the situation of his location.

On "Sky Eagle Island", there are only birds of prey, which are extremely fast. If there are a few third-tier demonic birds on the island, it would be very disadvantageous for him!
That "Rhino Island" is slightly safer.

These rhinoceros monsters have thick hides and are very difficult to fight, but they are slow-moving and extremely slow. If you can't get a chance to kill them, it's very easy for them to escape.

With this assessment, Li Yunjing began to maneuver the "Azure Cloud Boat" to the right.

When the "Azure Cloud Boat" flew to a place a thousand miles away from "Rhinoceros Island", Li Yunjing put away the "Azure Cloud Boat" and fell into the sea from the boat.

Li Yunjing had to ensure his own safety and absolutely could not attract the attention of these demons before taking action.

Otherwise, if the demons on Rhino Island were to open the island's formations, activate the restrictions, and gather a large army to besiege Li Yunjing, he wouldn't be able to withstand it.

The situation is just like on "Cancer Island".

Following the seabed, they approached "Rhino Island." With Li Yunjing's cultivation level, he easily found a weakness and landed on the island.

Upon entering "Rhino Island," Li Yunjing realized that the buildings here were enormous, each stone house resembling the dwelling of a giant.

The entire "Rhino Island" complex exudes a desolate, grand, and majestic atmosphere, which becomes the sole theme.

Each of the minotaurs was over ten feet tall, and the weapons they held were as thick as pillars!
Li Yunjing cast an "invisibility spell" on himself and carefully walked around the island.

The members of the "Rhinoceros Clan" have their own language. Li Yunjing listened to the conversations of these monsters but couldn't make out any specific content. He only made a slight guess based on their mental fluctuations.

Along the way, Li Yunjing arrived in the land of giants, just like a dwarf.

This really gave Li Yunjing a special feeling.

He staggered to the inner gate of the "Rhino Palace," where he saw two enormous rhino warriors guarding the entrance. These two rhino warriors were a full thirty-three zhang tall!

Like a skyscraper!
Li Yunjing noticed that even one of the other person's toenails seemed to be bigger than his own!

"These big, dumb geezers!"

Li Yunjing cursed inwardly, and could only console himself with that thought.

However, it wasn't long before Li Yunjing discovered the advantages of being short.

He was like a rat that had entered the house!
wrong!

Like a cockroach!
Even smaller!

Standing before such a rugged building, Li Yunjing saw cracks and flaws everywhere; the towering walls were practically useless.

Li Yunjing followed a crack and entered the palace directly.

The two big, dumb guys outside knew nothing about this.

"Bang bang bang..."

Deep within the palace, squads of rhinoceros warriors would occasionally appear, patrolling the palace grounds.

Li Yunjing was too young to be discovered by them.

As Li Yunjing wandered through the palace, he was no longer in a hurry. He vaguely sensed a chilling aura deep within the palace.

This feeling is very obvious!

A monk's senses are more reliable than his eyes and ears!
In Li Yunjing's mind, there might be a Nascent Soul Realm demon king here, or at least a half-step Nascent Soul Realm demon king!
That level of demon king is definitely not something Li Yunjing can handle!

He needs to be careful!
It was with this discovery that Li Yunjing concealed all his aura, becoming like an ordinary person, even suppressing his own blood and qi to the lowest level.

Such fluctuations in vitality are no different from when a human sees a flying insect or a fly!
In this land of giants, the demon kings would naturally not look down on such a weak being.

Li Yunjing took advantage of his small size to steal here!

Robbery won't work!

They'll resort to underhanded tactics!

Steal the stuff little by little!

With this idea in mind, Li Yunjing wandered around the palace. All the palaces inside were so large that they seemed boundless, like giant mountains.

Even those artificial hills and small ponds are just like real mountains and lakes.

Inside the small pool, these rhinoceros tribesmen actually kept quite a few sea creatures.

There are dozens of species of first-tier sea creatures!
However, Li Yunjing did not discover any second-tier sea creatures.

It is estimated that the "Rhino Clan" was also somewhat mindful of the impact and dared not attack other sea creatures, for fear of causing some conflict.

When Li Yunjing entered the Imperial Garden, he discovered a lotus pond.

"Good heavens! They're all second-tier lotuses!"

Li Yunjing was surprised to see this.

Rhino Island is clearly more powerful than Crab Island!
The sea chart of the "Tianluo Dao Sect" contains an error, perhaps because it is outdated!
The thought flashed through Li Yunjing's mind. He picked some lotus seeds and left the lotus pond quietly.

Li Yunjing then arrived at the Royal Garden behind it, where the trees were thousands or even tens of thousands of years old, with lush branches and leaves, forming a green world.

A rich spiritual energy emanates from it.

Li Yunjing even saw many palace maids and imperial concubines of the rhinoceros clan enjoying the beautiful scenery and having a picnic.

Li Yunjing glanced at the "Rhino Clan" beauties and immediately lost all interest in them.

You can't say it's ugly!

It was ugly to the extreme!

Li Yunjing would rather become a monk at Mingxin Temple than consider such a monster!
After exploring the palace for three days, Li Yunjing figured out some tricks of the trade.

He passed through the huge archway and arrived at a heavily guarded backyard.

Inside this courtyard is a huge palace, with a plaque that is as big as a mountain bearing the three large characters "Duobao Hall"!
This is Li Yunjing's ultimate goal!
Li Yunjing stood in front of the "Hall of Many Treasures," a burning light flashing in his eyes.

The palace is magnificent, and the three large golden characters "Duobaodian" on the plaque shine brightly, exuding an aura of majesty and mystery.

Clearly, this is one of the most important treasure troves of the "Rhinoceros Clan," and it must contain countless rare treasures.

"Finally found!"

Li Yunjing was secretly pleased, but he did not act rashly.

Since this "Treasure Hall" is an important place for the "Rhinoceros Clan," it must be protected by powerful guards and formations. Rushing in would only alert them.

It doesn't matter where else is, but here there must be restrictions!

Whether it's an ant or a fly, touching the barrier will inevitably alert the "rhinoceros tribe," prompting them to explore the treasure vault and check for any problems.

Li Yunjing carefully observed his surroundings and discovered that the "Treasure Hall" was surrounded by elite guards of the Rhinoceros Clan, each with a powerful aura.

They were clearly all second- or even third-tier monsters.

In addition, there were faint fluctuations of array formations around the palace, clearly to prevent outsiders from breaking in.

"We definitely can't force our way in; we need to find a way to sneak in."

Li Yunjing thought to himself.

"stop!"

Before long, the opportunity Li Yunjing had been waiting for arrived.

Two palace maids carrying a jade plate arrived here.

"We are here on behalf of the Seventh Princess to enter the treasury and receive a 'Heavenly Spirit Pill'!"

A palace maid responded.

"Hmm! Do you have a token?"

The guard softened his tone slightly but continued to ask questions.

"good chance!"

Li Yunjing's mind raced, and he immediately came up with an idea.

Using an invisibility spell, Li Yunjing landed on the hem of a palace maid's skirt, concealing his presence, and prepared to follow her into the treasure vault. "Alright! The token is fine! You can go in!"

After the guards finished their inspection, the sound came out.

"Squeak..."

The next moment, Li Yunjing heard the sound of the door opening. The palace maid he was attached to also stepped forward and entered the treasure vault through the door.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Li Yunjing darted away from the palace maid's skirt and hid in a corner of the treasure vault.

The two palace maids, oblivious to the situation, continued walking ahead, searching for the so-called "Heavenly Spirit Pill."

Li Yunjing no longer cared about the two palace maids; the scene before him was simply too shocking.

The palace has a vast interior space, with rows of shelves that are as tall as skyscrapers.

If Li Yunjing weren't a cultivator, he wouldn't even be able to look up and see what was at the very top!
These shelves were piled high with all sorts of rare treasures: elixirs, ores, magical artifacts, cultivation manuals, and even some strange treasures he had never seen before.

This "rhinoceros tribe" is strange too!
Their spirit stones were not the standard size in the cultivation world at all, but were enormous spirit stones comparable to houses.

"As expected of the 'Hall of Many Treasures,' it truly lives up to its name!"

Li Yunjing was overjoyed. He was now just waiting for the two palace maids to leave so he could make his move.

At this moment, it was like a mouse falling into a rice granary!
Not long after, the footsteps of two palace maids could be heard.

The two women spoke a few words with the guards at the entrance. After an inspection to confirm that they hadn't taken anything extra, the guards let them go.

After the two women left, the door to the "Treasure Hall" creaked shut.

"Finally, we can get started!"

Soon, Li Yunjing's gaze settled on a high platform in the center of the palace.

On the high platform sat a huge jade box, its surface covered with intricate runes, radiating a rich spiritual energy.

This jade box is shaped like a coffin and can easily hold a hundred or so people!

"Even this jade box cannot safely seal the aura inside; there must be an extremely precious treasure inside!"

Li Yunjing thought to himself, and without hesitation, he lightly touched the ground with his toes and jumped several times in a row, already reaching the high platform.

"Good heavens! What on earth is here?!"

Li Yunjing approached the high platform, circled the jade box twice, and sensed the powerful aura emanating from it.

Just as Li Yunjing was about to make his move, he was startled and immediately stopped, looking warily at the jade box.

The runes on the surface of the jade box began to flash, revealing an extremely powerful restriction within!

"The restrictions cannot be broken here!"

Li Yunjing's heart sank. After thinking for a moment, he took out the "storage gourd" and pointed the gourd's mouth at the jade box.

"receive!"

Li Yunjing gave a low shout, and the jade box really flew up, heading towards the "storage gourd".

"it is good!"

After collecting the most valuable items, Li Yunjing began to sweep through the shelves one by one. The "storage gourd" was full, and some "storage bracelets" were also full.

Finally, even those piles of "treasure troves" were filled to the brim!
This time, Li Yunjing has truly struck it rich!
Unfortunately, he no longer had enough space to store any more treasures.

Of course, if Li Yunjing were to organize all his storage magic treasures, internal spaces, and all his items now, he could squeeze out one or two tenths of the space.

Unfortunately, Li Yunjing didn't have the time or the safe environment to give him the opportunity to slowly organize the supplies.

"Forget it! People shouldn't be too greedy! I need to think of a way to get out of here!"

After thinking it over, Li Yunjing decided to back out.

With this idea in mind, Li Yunjing began to inspect the area around the "Hall of Many Treasures".

Every single brick was inspected!
There's a gap here!
There are also vulnerabilities!

However, each brick is protected by a barrier, so he will never have a chance to get out!

"No! I need to study the restrictions above! Otherwise, I won't be able to get out at all!"

Finally, Li Yunjing was certain there were no flaws.

He stood in a corner and began to examine a nearby brick.

"Hmm? These restrictions imposed by the 'Rhino Clan' seem quite interesting!"

Li Yunjing squatted in the corner, his eyes fixed intently on the restrictive runes on the brick, thinking to himself, "Water, earth, and lightning—the three forces are fused together. This restriction is quite ingenious. It seems the 'Rhino Clan's' array formation skills are quite high; no wonder they dare to build their treasure vault so conspicuously."

He reached out and gently touched the brick. The moment his fingertips made contact, he felt a faint electric current surge up his fingertips, accompanied by a tingling sensation.

Li Yunjing quickly withdrew his hand, his brows furrowing slightly: "Although the lightning elemental power is not strong, if we forcefully break the formation, it may trigger a chain reaction. At that time, the restrictions of the entire 'Treasure Hall' will be activated, and the guards outside will discover it!"

At the beginning, Li Yunjing didn't care either. If they found out, so be it. At worst, they could fight!
However, after entering the palace and discovering the presence of experts at the half-step Nascent Soul realm, or even the Nascent Soul realm, Li Yunjing became timid.

This level of demon king is truly guaranteed to kill you with a single hit!

"We can't use force; we have to outsmart them!"

Li Yunjing thought to himself.

Anyway, Li Yunjing wasn't in a hurry inside the "Treasure Hall". He closed his eyes and began to carefully recall the array knowledge he had learned.

The fusion of water, earth, and lightning elements, while complex, is not without its challenges.

Once the balance is found, a way out can be quietly created without triggering any restrictions.

As for the brick wall, it had absolutely no chance of stopping Li Yunjing. Whether it was earth-based magical abilities or the "Yin-Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword," it could drill a hole and allow him to escape.

"Water represents gentleness, earth represents stability, and lightning represents violence. These three forces seem contradictory, but in reality, they complement each other."

"Although the lightning element is violent, it is suppressed by the water and earth elements, forming a stable restriction structure."

"If I can temporarily weaken the power of lightning without disrupting the balance, I might be able to find a breakthrough."

Thinking of this, Li Yunjing's eyes lit up; he had an idea.

Li Yunjing immediately placed his palm on the brick and began to slowly guide the lightning power on the brick and stone into his body using the lightning-drawing technique of the Five Thunder Orthodox Method!

At the same time, to maintain balance, the other hand sends earth and water elements to the wall to create a new balance and ensure that the restriction will not suddenly break.

"This method is indeed feasible! Everything in the world has its counterpart, and restrictions are no exception!"

With Li Yunjing's guidance, the lightning power on the bricks was gradually absorbed by him, and the balance of the restriction began to tilt subtly.

Seizing the opportunity, Li Yunjing quickly used the "Yin Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword" to drill a small hole in the brickwork, big enough for him to climb out.

However, as soon as Li Yunjing left the "Treasure Hall" and before he had even left the palace, he felt a powerful aura lock onto him.

"Oh no! Someone has tracked my movements!"

Li Yunjing was shocked. He couldn't care about anything else. He released the "Azure Cloud Boat" and propelled it at full speed, shooting into the sky!
Li Yunjing's only thought was that the strong members of the "Rhinoceros Clan" were not good at flying and had limited speed, so he could get rid of them!
"Human, you are indeed quite capable, as you were able to break through the restrictions of the 'Hall of Many Treasures'."

Behind them, atop a cloud of auspiciousness, a colossal rhinoceros demon king spoke in a deep, cold voice, tinged with mockery, "How could you, a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, think you could escape like this?"

"Senior, it's all a misunderstanding!"

Li Yunjing casually replied and immediately filled the "power furnace" with high-grade spirit stones!
This time, even if it means the "Azure Cloud Boat" explodes, we have to fly with our lives on the line!

"Boom!"

Sure enough, with the help of the high-grade spirit stones, the "Azure Cloud Boat" moved like lightning, and with a huge sonic boom, it had already moved far away from the "Rhino Island" area.

"Hmm? That's fast!"

The Rhinoceros Demon King was taken aback, then roared angrily. Its huge hoof stomped on the white clouds, and with terrifying power, it shot out, catching up with the "Azure Cloud Boat" in one step.

"boom!"

Without any hesitation, Li Yunjing threw out the last third-tier "Divine Firmament Thunderbolt".

The Rhinoceros Demon King was taken aback, then a large hand clenched into a fist and slammed down.

The two forces collided, unleashing a massive energy surge. The sky seemed to cave in, and the surrounding clouds were blasted apart. The Azure Cloud Boat, using the recoil, sped up considerably and disappeared into the distance.

In the blink of an eye, Li Yunjing almost met his end!
