As per the destination, Han Shu came to Jiang Li's place. There he saw Jiang Li and the other cultivators were fighting with dozens of Blood Rat Monsters.

They looked troubled for the first time facing the monster. After Han Shu came, he directly helped clear the Blood Rat monster.

Next to successfully killing the Blood Rat Monster, Han Shu immediately asked, "Where did they appear from?"

"They emerged from the cracks of these small holes as we mined spiritual stones" they replied.

"How is it possible, it should be impossible. Did they really show up from there?" Han Shu asked again to be sure. They nodded in agreement.

"It should be that the barrier below also prevents them from going up even if they dig a hole to go up. Did that monster have ascended some time ago before I came to the lower region? I think it's true. They were likely hiding after successfully ascending." Inner Han Shu thought.

Jiang Li suddenly patted Han Shu on the shoulder, "How did they get to this place. Though I sent some people here to stand guard in the lower region? Did they really make their way up through this wall?" Jiang Li asked.

"I don't see the person you mean. Before coming here I go to the lower region first." replied Han Shu.

"What! Maybe they went in there! I told them to stand guard outside the barrier." Jiang Li held onto her forehead.

"I'll catch up with them first, I hope they don't meet any monsters there." Jiang Li quickly went to the lower region.

"Wait, I haven't said my purpose for meeting you yet." Han Shu tried to stop but Jiang Li did not hear him. Han Shu finally followed him from behind.

As soon as he reached the lower region, Jiang Li directly entered through the barrier. He then used tracking techniques to determine their whereabouts.

"Damn it, they went pretty deep in there."

Jiang Li went deeper into the region while killing the monster he encountered, but if the monster did not block his path, he just passed through it. So did Han Shu who had to kill the monster that Jiang Li had left behind.

The more they went inside, the more high-tier spiritual stones on the walls became more and more abundant. The region became increasingly brighter due to the abundance of spiritual stones.

"In a moment, right there." Jiang Li accelerated her movements.

A few minutes later, they saw two cultivators who were being pushed away by the giant spider monster. They were believed to be guards tasked by Jiang Li.

"Huhahuha's... Damn, this monster is so powerful! I didn't expect to be pushed like this." Their breath was choked with exhaustion.

"Hahaha, even though we only fight these monsters but we can't afford to." He laughed because he was fighting it.

"Well, let's fight to the end." They darted towards the spider monster.

Until in the end they were wrapped by a sticky thread released by the spider monster. When the spider monster was about to eat them, Jiang Li came and directly slashed the spider's head until it finally died.

Jiang Li then freed the two cultivators from the sticky thread of the spider monster.

"Mr Li! Sorry to bother you..." They were shocked by Jiang Li in front of them. They were at once relieved that they still had a chance to live.

"What are you doing here! I just told you to be in front of the barrier." Jiang Li scolded them.

"I'm sorry, we're just curious about this place. So we walked in here." They're looking down to apologize.

"All right, all right, now let's get out of here."

Just as they were about to come out, the ground they were treading on suddenly shook. Thousands of Blood Rat Monsters were seen approaching where they were.

"How do we get out, Mr Li?" The two cultivators looked towards Jiang Li.

"Damn, they're coming so crowded."
