Seeing the key reacting, Wu Lie immediately tried to use the method he knew to stimulate the key to see if it could successfully open the rat path. However, when he used his magic power, he realized that he was now in the ruins of the Yecheng City of Xuehai Lake. The magic power on his body was suppressed by the invisible power around him so that it could not be used at all. Only by exiting outside the city can he use the magic power. But if he exited the city, he was not at the entrance of the rat path, and even if he activated the key, he would not be able to open the rat path.

For a moment, Wu Lie fell into a paradox. He repeatedly thought about the solution, but finally found that unless the invisible power contained in the waters of Yecheng disappeared, he would not be able to open this rat path anyway.

"What should I do? Will I go home like this?" Wu Lie, who was in a dilemma, looked at the rat key that emitted a glimmer of light in his hand, and said depressedly.

No wonder he felt depressed. He originally thought he had a great opportunity to make his power higher, and even did not hesitate to fight against all forces in the lower realm and vassal world for this, but now he has such a result, how could he not feel depressed?

However, in his depressed state, he had to start thinking about how to deal with the rat key in his hand.

On the surface, giving up this special rat path key can seem to be able to put aside this big trouble once and for all, but the snooping and attacks targeting him may not disappear because of this, but are more likely to become stronger because of his concession. Because those people will regard this concession as weak, will underestimate his strength even more, and make wrong decisions, such as being able to easily obtain another ordinary rat path key from him like this special rat path key.

If it is in normal times, when facing only one or two hidden enemies, Wu Lie would be happy to see the major wrong decisions in the judgment of the enemy, because this can make him more easily solve such idiot enemies. But now he is facing many enemies who are still watching. Once some hidden enemies make wrong judgments and directly attack him, it is very likely to cause changes like a great avalanche, which makes those who are still watching decide to take action, and ultimately overwhelm the quality with quantity, making the original wrong judgment become a correct judgment.

So the idea of ​​giving up the key was just passed in his mind, and he was excluded from considering the plan. At the same time, another idea began to emerge in his mind.

If you want to open the rat path, you must solve the big obstacle of Xuehai Lake. Xuehai Lake has existed for so many years, and the reason why the strange waters in the Yecheng City have not been solved is mainly because the gain is not worth the loss. The most precious strange beast in Xuehai Lake was caught by Litian Palace back then. All that is left is only some ordinary aquatic beasts. The flesh and skin of these strange beasts may be of some value to ordinary people, but in the eyes of practitioners like the wild scholars and scholars, they are no different from the stones on the road.

Driven by great interests, no one would be willing to do thankless things, which is also the main reason why Blood Sea Lake can exist to this day. If Wu Lie had not mastered the key to a special mouse path in his hand, he would probably not want to solve the problem of Blood Sea Lake. However, Wu Lie estimated the cost of completely solving Blood Sea Lake, and found that even if he put all his resources and strength in this matter, it would probably not be enough.

So if you don’t want to give up the key, Wu Lie feels that he can only find someone to cooperate. Because from the current situation, it is impossible for him to open this rat path alone. In addition, cooperating with others can also share the crisis and risks, and can play a significant deterrent role for those who snoop.

However, the biggest question of this idea is who to cooperate with. If the collaborator is too weak, it will not be able to deter the enemy. Too strong is tantamount to attracting the wolf into the house and letting it occupy it.

The first half of the world in the lower realm was Wu Lie to be excluded from the list of collaborators, not only because he just killed nine elite soldiers with a high status in the half-day world, but more importantly because the guys with eyes on their heads in the half-day would never cooperate with people like him.

After removing the strongest force among the snoops for a long time, Wu Lie has no choice. The vassal forces other than the mountain world will naturally not be considered by him, because he is not familiar with those forces, and will probably backfire in cooperation. Even if they become cooperative relationships, they will cause some unnecessary trouble because they are not familiar with each other. This will not only not be able to provide him with any help, but will distract his energy.

After thinking about it over and over again, Wu Lie found that the person he could cooperate with could only be found in the rat nest in the mountains, and there were also those rat nest owners with strong enough strength to choose from him.

"It seems that it is still necessary to go back to the mountain world!" After getting an idea, Wu Lie made a decision in his heart and prepared to leave here.

Just as Wu Lie carefully used the rat path key in his hand to test whether the mouse path entrance really existed, the key and the rat path reacted again, but what surprised him was that the reaction this time was different from what had just happened. The light emitted from the key was no longer a faint light, but a dazzling white light. The entrance of the rat path located in the fountain was no longer hidden and unobstructed at this moment, but with the emergence of the dazzling light, a small crack was formed, and a blood-red viscous substance poured out from the crack and merged into the surrounding blood-red lake water.

Although this viscous material was completely integrated with the surrounding lake water at the moment it overflowed from the crack, Wu Lie could feel from the difference in breath that this fusion was just an illusion. In fact, this viscous material was hidden in the lake water and moved quickly towards him.

Although this viscous object did not emit any dangerous aura, Wu Lie still felt like he was being targeted by a ferocious beast, and instinctively made a dodge move, swimming out with all his might, trying to swim out of this water before the viscous object touched him.

However, even if Wu Lie swims very quickly, it is still much worse than the speed of the viscous substance moving in the water. I saw that when he had just swam to the outer wall of Yecheng, which was about to leave the city, the viscous substance had already caught up with him, and his pride instantly opened like a big net, wanting to completely wrap it up at once.

"It's over!" If it were outside Yecheng, Wu Lie might be able to use magic weapons to block this mysterious sticky object and even completely eliminate it. But now he only has physical strength and has no way to stop the coverage of this sticky object. An extremely bad feeling suddenly surged into his heart, causing him to involuntarily feel a little desperate. And his hand couldn't help but grab the life-saving thing handed to him by the mysterious master, hoping that this item could work in an environment like Yecheng.

Just when this sudden mysterious attack was about to drag Wu Lie to the edge of life and death, a whirlpool that was parallel to the bottom of the lake suddenly appeared out of thin air from the water not far away. Moreover, this whirlpool was not only strange in shape, but also the suction force it formed was very strange. The range of suction force transmission was only covering the water where the viscous object was. Wu Lie, who was next to the viscous object, only felt a faint fluctuation of the water flow and did not feel any strong suction force.

Faced with the powerful force generated by this strange suction force, the viscous object had no room for resistance and was directly sucked into the middle of the vortex. As the vortex narrowed, it gradually shrank into a small object that looked like blood, wrapped in layers of water pressure formed by the vortex, forming an object similar to a crystal ball, falling into a thin palm, and constantly rotating with the movement of the palm.

It was not until this moment that Wu Lie noticed that there was one more person in the originally empty city area. This person looked like a common scholar in Qingzhou. There was no difference between the evil scholars. They were all dressed in Yuanjie clothing. However, compared to other people, the person in front of him had a unique temperament after wearing Yuanjie clothing, as if this dress was tailor-made for him.

Although the person in front of him has no strong temperament and looks no different from ordinary people, this person appears in Yecheng and can stay in the water for a long time without relying on any underwater equipment. In addition, in the scene just now, no matter how dull a person is, he cannot regard this person as an ordinary person.

Wu Lie did not relax any vigilance because the other party saved him just now. In his opinion, the reason why the person in front of him appeared here would never be a coincidence. I am afraid that the other party's purpose was like the lower realm gods he solved before, and they were all aimed at the special rat path key in his hand.

Just as Wu Lie was thinking about how to say hello to the person in front of him, the other party took the initiative to contact him. He did not approach Wu Lie, but raised his hand and pointed outside the city, signaled to go outside before talking, and then quickly swam out of the city.

Seeing this, Wu Lie's nervous state of mind was a little relaxed. Although he still didn't understand what the other party's purpose was, it was not difficult to feel that the other party seemed to have no malice from his current actions. With the confusion in his heart, Wu Lie also quickly strode his hands, followed closely behind the man, and swam outside the city.

After feeling the suppression disappear and the magic power can be controlled again, Wu Lie immediately blessed himself with a water-retardation technique, and then took the initiative to salute the mysterious man who saved him, thanking him: "Thank you for your actions just now, otherwise it would be very troublesome to let that thing stick to your body."
