Chapter 879: Unconventional Means

This sense of intuition when it came to danger had saved on countless occasions during his cultivation journey up to this point, and with that in mind, a grim look appeared on his face.

If the Green Goat City really were plotting against him, then he was in a terrible situation. The Black Tribulation Centipede was still in his body, so not only could he not run away, he was also completely powerless to resist against the Green Goat City Lord.

However, he certainly wasn\'t just going to roll over and surrender.

After pacing back and forth in his room for a while, Han Li stopped in his tracks, then inspected the small red vial momentarily before opening his mouth to expel the Heaven Controlling Vial.

Instead of drinking the liquid in the red vial, he tipped all of it into the Heaven Controlling Vial, then replaced the stopper before swallowing the vial again.

Even though Han Li now mostly believed what was written on the letter, he definitely wasn\'t just going to blindly drink this strange liquid.

However, throwing it away would also be inappropriate, so this was the best middle ground.

After doing all of that, Han Li sat down with his legs crossed and closed his eyes to consider what he was going to do from here.

During these past few years, he had considered trying to get away, and he had gathered a lot of information in secret.

The entire arena was constructed in a completely sealed-off area in Green Goat City, and the only point of connection that it had with the outside world was its entrance.

The star pond and several other special areas in the arena were also connected to the outside world, but all of those areas had restrictions placed upon them, and they were also overseen by powerful cultivators to prevent people from attempting escape.

At this point, Han Li had already established a plan for what he was going to do if he were to attempt an escape someday.

However, figuring out the escape route was the easy part, dealing with the Black Tribulation Centipede was still the main concern.

Information on these creatures was extremely limited in Green Goat City, so unless he was to resort to some unconventional means, it didn\'t seem like he was going to make any progress on this matter.

Given the urgency of the situation, there was no longer any time for him to waste.

With that in mind, his eyes sprang open, and a decisive look appeared on his face as he made his way out of his room.

As usual, the gladiators of the ninth area greeted him as he passed them by.

Thanks to the concealment methods that Han Li had employed, his cultivation base didn\'t appear to have improved by much, but everyone had witnessed his powers in battle, and he was also quite close with Toxic Dragon, so there were many people trying to suck up to him.

Han Li nodded in response to all of the greetings, then quickly made his way to the exchange hall.

After wandering around in the hall for some time, he made his way down the passageway leading to the fourth area.

After staying in there for a short while, he traveled to the eighth area, then the first.

Some time later, he returned to the exchange hall with a peculiar look in his eyes.

He had been covertly observing his surroundings this entire time, thinking that if the Green Goat City Lord were planning to make a move soon, then perhaps he would send people to monitor him.

However, he didn\'t discover any signs that he was being followed, and that was both reassuring and confusing to him.

Having said that, he had already made up his mind, and he had no intention of turning back now.

Thus, he took a deep breath, then made his way to a place similar to the ninth area before knocking on a certain door.

The door slowly swung open, revealing a gray-robed young man, namely the man who had first brought Han Li into the arena, Zhu Jieshan.

"Long time no see, Fellow Daoist Zhu," Han Li greeted with a smile.

"Li Feiyu? What are you doing here?" Zhu Jieshan asked with a surprised expression.

"There\'s no need to be so apprehensive of me, Fellow Daoist Zhu. You were the one who first indoctrinated me into the arena, and for that, I\'m very grateful, so I thought I\'d pay you a visit to show my appreciation. On top of that, there\'s also a small favor that I\'d like to ask of you," Han Li said with a smile as he stuffed a small cloth pouch into Zhu Jieshan\'s hand.

The pouch contained several C tier beast cores, and Zhu Jieshan\'s expression eased slightly as he stepped to the side to allow Han Li into his room.

The layout of Zhu Jieshan\'s room was quite similar to that of Han Li\'s, but it was much larger and better furnished.

Zhu Jieshan brought out a tea set, then began brewing a pot of tea as he smiled and said, "Given how limited the resources in the arena are, I\'m afraid I don\'t have any good tea to treat you with."

"This tea is very fragrant, Fellow Daoist Zhu. If this doesn\'t count as good tea, then I don\'t know what does," Han Li replied with a smile.

"You can take some tea leaves back with you if you like. By the way, why have you come to see me, Fellow Daoist Li?" Zhu Jieshan asked with a smile.

"Just now, as I returned to my room from an outing, I discovered that someone had snuck into my room and left this letter behind. Its contents were quite shocking to me, so I came to see you about it," Han Li replied with a serious expression as he pulled out the envelope and handed it over.

Zhu Jieshan accepted the letter before taking a look, upon which his expression instantly changed drastically.

Taking advantage of his momentary distraction, Han Li immediately reached out with his right hand, thrusting his index and middle fingers toward Zhu Jieshan\'s dantian like lightning.

At the same time, a translucent chain flew out of his glabella before piercing through the air en route to Zhu Jieshan\'s head.

Two crisp clangs rang out as a white bone sword appeared in front of Zhu Jieshan\'s lower abdomen to intercept Han Li\'s fingers, while a translucent rune had taken shape on his forehead, forming a glowing shield to keep out Han Li\'s spiritual sense chain.

Han Li\'s expression instantly darkened significantly upon seeing this.

"I knew you came here with bad intentions! Did you really think you could fool me?" Zhu Jieshan sneered.

As soon as his voice trailed off, he slashed the bone sword in his hand through the air, sending a streak of white sword qi that was around ten feet in length sweeping viciously toward Han Li.

Han Li\'s pupils contracted drastically upon seeing this. Devilish qi and immortal spiritual power were both inaccessible in the Scalptia Spatial Domain, so how had he unleashed this streak of sword qi?

Despite his surprise, Han Li\'s reactions weren\'t slow at all, and he abruptly vanished from the spot, causing the streak of white sword qi to miss its target entirely.

Zhu Jieshan faltered slightly upon seeing this, following which he abruptly swung around and slashed his bone sword through the air.

However, before his sword was able to strike its target, a hand had already appeared before him, plunging toward his chest like a sharp dagger.

A loud thump rang out as Zhu Jieshan was sent flying by a burst of tremendous force before crashing heavily into a nearby wall.

A huge gash had been torn into his chest, and he threw up a mouthful of blood.

His bone sword had flown out of his grasp, and an astonished look had appeared on his face. Before he had a chance to say anything, Han Li appeared before him once again in a wraith-like manner, then threw a punch directly at him.

Having been disarmed, he could only attempt to raise his arms to defend himself.

However, given the injuries that he had just suffered, his movements were very slow, so he was already struck on the forehead before he could fully raise his arms.

A dull thump rang out as Zhu Jieshan slammed into the ground before throwing up another mouthful of blood. A dazed look had appeared in his eyes, clearly indicating that his consciousness had been rocked by Han Li\'s punch, but the glowing translucent shield in front of his forehead remained as bright as ever.

Han Li looked down at Zhu Jieshan from above, following which a Spiritual Sense Sword shot out of his glabella before instantly swelling to several feet in length.

The Spiritual Sense Sword was giving off tremendous spiritual sense fluctuations as it struck the light shield in front of Zhu Jieshan\'s forehead, and the light shield was instantly torn apart, while the rune on his forehead faded away.

After destroying the light shield, the Spiritual Sense Sword instantly stopped in its tracks.

Immediately thereafter, Han Li released several spiritual sense chains out of his hand, all of which burrowed their way into Zhu Jieshan\'s head before wrapping themselves in layers around Zhu Jieshan\'s soul.

As a result, Zhu Jieshan spasmed momentarily before falling completely still.

After doing all of that, Han Li made his way over to the door, then opened it a tiny bit to take a peek outside.

The walls of Zhu Jieshan\'s room were constructed from the same material as Han Li\'s room, and it had exceptional soundproofing properties and could also ward off spiritual sense, which was why Han Li dared to make such a violent move here.

After verifying that no one had noticed the scuffle that had just taken place, Han Li\'s expression eased slightly, and he closed the door again, then strode over to Zhu Jieshan\'s side before tapping a finger onto his glabella.

Zhu Jieshan slowly opened his eyes, and as soon as they regained focus, he immediately roared in a furious voice, "How dare you attack me, Li Feiyu? Are you not afraid of having your heart devoured by your Black Tribulation Centipede?!"
