"Evil creature!"

Zhang Xuezhou felt he had heard that voice before.

He was very confident in his memory; he would never forget a voice he had heard just once.

The only way for him to feel a vague sense of déjà vu is in certain special circumstances.

But he should remember sounds from specific scenarios more vividly than sounds that seem familiar.

The other person's voice has a natural quality that makes you forget things.

"It's a voice from the river of time!"

"It's the voice of the master of the Purple Cloud Palace!"

Zhang Xuezhou racked his brains and finally realized who the person who had shouted "Nie Zhang" was.

"I actually got scolded too, and I was even helping them fight the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon!"

Zhang Xuezhou responded with a dissatisfied sound, while Li Shaojun, who was lying on his back, showed surprise on his face and could not calm down.

He boasted that his deal with Bai was unknown to others, and since Zhang Xuezhou, who knew the information, was an accomplice, there was absolutely no possibility that the troublesome matter would be leaked.

But Li Shaojun didn't expect that this would be discovered.

Even if they manage to escape this time, they will most likely be marked and thus hunted down by the Immortal Court.

"It's over!"

He felt utterly terrible; good things never seemed to happen to him, and bad things never seemed to happen to him.

"Hongjun, you stole many treasures from our Celestial Craftsman Clan. Now that I have entered the Three Realms to retrieve them, not only has your Immortal Court refused to assist me, but you have also allowed me to be suppressed by human powerhouses for a hundred years. Now you are even using spatial Divine Ability to influence me and calling me a wicked creature. Our Celestial Craftsman Clan and this region are sworn enemies!"

Perhaps influenced by the control over Jiuyu, Yao, who was controlling Gongsun Hong's physical body, couldn't help but curse loudly.

"Borrowing for a short while cannot be called theft. Young man, don't use words carelessly. I simply mistook it from a distance!"

Seemingly recognizing 'Yao's' identity, a voice drifted in amidst the bizarre and colorful lights.

"You entered the Three Realms in your divine soul form; since things cannot be accomplished, then return!"

"Don't even think about it! You'd better return our Chaos Divine Bell first!"

"That treasure is bound by the forces of time and space, and I don't know where it has drifted to. Since you can't find it in the Three Realms, then look for it elsewhere!"

The voice exchanged a few words with 'Yao', and then fell silent.

But a white light appeared in the spacetime dimension that everyone was traveling through.

White light began to wrap around Gongsun Hong's body, while a faint red light was forcibly pulled out of Gongsun Hong's body.

"And my Jiuyu!"

The red light was enveloped by the white light, and 'Yao' let out a reluctant sound.

Why am I so unlucky!

Li Shaojun murmured to himself.

He curled up as much as possible to avoid being exposed to the white light.

However, the drifting white light is difficult to completely dodge.

Li Shaojun looked helpless and had no choice but to accept the unpredictable changes.

"This shuttle device is faulty; I can't locate and retrieve it!"

"No problem, this is my most precious treasure, I can't possibly make a mistake!"

"You haven't allocated enough resources for the shuttle; that's a clear mistake."

"Impossible! I used three different teleportation methods, and each one was correct without error. The coordinates were also perfect!"

"A mistake is a mistake. You've made a mistake, making it difficult for me to return with your treasure!"

"It's definitely because your cross-disciplinary knowledge wasn't adequate!"

"This is just a child's toy. How could I not understand it? You've selected three objects to travel through, but there are four, or even five, in this spatial passage!"

"There can't be four. One of them is a corpse, so it doesn't count. Besides, we've only traversed four times; there can't be five!"

"You must be blinded; that can't be a dead person!"

"A dead man, a dead man who's been stabbed ten times!"

"Alive!"

The sounds of debate arose, and a sense of forgetfulness welled up in Li Shaojun's heart. Time seemed to drag on endlessly, and he had no idea where he was going in his daze.

"Open your mouth wide?"

"Li Yulang, this place is far too complicated. You'd better keep quiet!"

Just as Li Shaojun's heart stirred, Zhang Xuezhou seemed to snap out of his daze and quickly replied with a sentence.

His expression was complicated; he felt that Zhang Xuezhou knew more than he had imagined.

The two exchanged a few words, and then felt the white light around them begin to fade significantly.

"Having taken our false names, and since Hongjun can't destroy 'Jiuyu,' he'll probably give up on pursuing us and instead order the Immortal Court to hunt us down!"

Li Shaojun pondered to himself, feeling that some people named Zhang Dazui and Li Yulang were likely to suffer misfortune in the future.

Of course, Li Shaojun's past identity was very complicated, involving not only his name, but also his appearance.

As long as he doesn't fall into a trap for personal gain, Li Shaojun believes no one can catch him, not even the experts of the Immortal Court.

As Li Shaojun pondered the various possibilities, he suddenly saw mountains and rivers appearing ahead.

This allowed him to roll and slip away.

The lush green trees that came into view were almost unbelievable to Li Shaojun.

They not only avoided falling into the ocean, but were also transported to a normal land area.

The trees were common trees, which made Li Shaojun very certain that he had not been taken to unfamiliar territory.

Moreover, the distance that 'Jiuyu' travels is likely limited, and they shouldn't be too far from the area of Mohists's Mechanical City.

This must be an island!

Li Shaojun quickly made a judgment.

He glanced around several times, but didn't fly up to investigate immediately.

Looking back, Li Shaojun saw Zhang Xuezhou supporting Gongsun Hong, who was almost rolling his eyes back, which prompted him to quickly move closer.

If they remain in the island region, Li Shaojun hopes Gongsun Hong will survive.

Although he disliked Gongsun Hong, Li Shaojun needed Gongsun Hong's seafaring skills so that they could possibly return to land.

After this disastrous treasure hunt, Li Shaojun became allergic to this kind of adventurous exploration.

He and Zhang Xuezhou collaborated three times, entering and exiting the treasure vault of the Beast Taming Sect, an uninhabited secret realm, and the Mohists's mechanical city.

They found the place and stumbled upon some treasures every time, but never truly benefited greatly.

This action made Li Shaojun feel extremely frustrated, as if he were constantly plagued by bad luck.

"We seem to have entered some kind of secret place!"

Only after Zhang Xuezhou spoke did Li Shaojun force himself to perk up.

"What secret place?" Li Shaojun asked casually.

"I don't know what secret place it is, but I can sense wisps of Spiritual Qi here. Mr. Gongsun is saved!"

Zhang Xuezhou looked up and saw that he was in the mountains and forests, and the sky and earth were gray and hazy, as if he were under a big pot lid.

This scene is common, but what's abnormal is the atmosphere in this area.

He took a deep breath and felt completely relieved.

Perhaps being in the secret realm of Zixiao Palace allowed Li Shaojun's body to adapt, or perhaps the purple light of Zixiao Palace reduced his physical senses. Li Shaojun had not yet fully adapted to the environment, but Zhang Xuezhou was basically conscious.

The fact that they could remain comfortable, or even more comfortable, after being transferred from the Zixiao Palace secret area to another region can only prove that they successfully transferred from one secret area to another.

"You mean this place is a secret area, then..."

Li Shaojun was very dissatisfied with his treasure hunt, feeling that he had repeatedly come up empty-handed.

But after Zhang Xuezhou gave a brief explanation, his heart began to race.

If they weren't in the Zixiao Palace's secret area, it could only mean they had entered another secret area in the sea.

However, the number of secret locations in the sea is extremely limited.

If we remove the Eastern Heavenly Gate Secret Site from the East Sea region, the remaining three secret sites are the Three Pots in the Sea.

This involves the three islands of Penglai, Yingzhou, and Fangzhang.
