Chapter 1558: Ancient Deep Sea Lamp

Han Li immediately made a hand seal upon seeing this, and spatial fluctuations erupted in the air above the two balls of green flames, following which two clumps of azure threads emerged out of thin air.

The azure threads dispersed before ensnaring the two green fireballs in a flash, and regardless of how vehemently the green flames struggled, they were unable to break free from the restrictive threads.

At this moment, a small green cauldron appeared nearby, and Han Li pointed a finer toward it from afar.

The silver Fire Raven that was flying toward that direction exploded amid a dull thump, then flew through the air as two silver fireballs before striking the pair of trapped green fireballs with unerring accuracy.

A pair of shrill shrieks rang out, and the two balls of green flames converged within the silver flames to form a pair of eyeball-like objects. The pair of eyeballs turned toward Han Li, and they blinked as a peculiar light flashed from within them. Han Lis heart jolted upon seeing this, and he reflexively disappeared on the spot. At the same time, the two green eyeballs were completely reduced to nothingness within the silver flames. freewebnvel.cm

Only then did Han Li reappear over 100 feet away amid a flash of azure light, and his brows were tightly furrowed as he looked down from above.

The souls of high-grade beings were most definitely quite useful, but he didnt dare to keep them in case they possessed certain abilities that could harm him.

As for using a soul search technique, that was not advisable on beings of a higher cultivation base than himself as he could easily suffer spiritual backlash. However, Han Li was quite surprised by the fact that this monster possessed two independent souls. Furthermore, the pair of eyeball-like objects that the souls manifested into in the end were also rather peculiar.

After conducting a thorough examination of his own body, Han Li didnt discover anything amiss, so it appeared that the Spirit Engulfing Heavenly Flames had eradicated those two objects before they could unleash any abilities. With that in mind, Han Li heaved a faint sigh of relief as he swept a sleeve through the air.

Immediately thereafter, his Spirit Engulfing Heavenly Flames, Heavenvoid Cauldron, Divine Essencefused Mountain, and Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords all flew back toward him before disappearing into his body. Only then did Han Li slowly descend toward the giant moth carcass down below.

Unbeknownst to Han Li, right after he had slain the monstrous moth, a sequence of events was unfolding in a palace constructed from flawless white jade located deep within the pitch-black ocean.

There were 12 ancient copper lamps placed in a row on the ground within a dark secret chamber on the deepest level of the palace. These lamps were each around a foot tall, and there were faint green flames of different sizes flickering within the lamps.

There was a tall and thin humanoid figure seated with their legs crossed in a motionless manner in front of the ancient lamps. The humanoid figure had its head lowered, and its entire body as well as its face was concealed under a golden cloak. There was a series of strange patterns emblazoned onto the cloak, and it was shimmering with spiritual light.

In the instant that Han Li had destroyed the two souls of the monstrous moth, one of the medium-sized lamps was suddenly snuffed out.

A strange creaking sound rang out from the humanoid figures body as it slowly raised its head, and two balls of green flames appeared, instantly revealing its true appearance.

The humanoid figure had a white skeletal face, and the two balls of silver flames were burning within its eye sockets, creating a very eerie and unsettling scene to behold.

The skeletal head turned to appraise the snuffed-out ancient lamp with a cold look in its eyes, and it let loose an enraged harrumph as it suddenly opened its mouth to expel a ball of black light. The object that had been expelled was a square black seal. The object was extremely smooth, but there was an inky black true dragon carved onto its surface, revolving several times around the seal.

The skeleton uttered a strange incantation, and a swath of black light swept forth from the black seal, following which a giant black object appeared.

Under the dim light of the lamps in the secret chamber, the black object was revealed to be an azure beast that was around 30 to 40 feet in length with the head of a giant cow.

The monster lay motionlessly on the ground, and if it werent for the slight rise and fall of its chest, one could be forgiven for thinking that it was a dead carcass.

The skeleton opened its mouth, and a pea-sized ball of fire flew forth from within, then disappeared into the monsters body in a flash.

The monster shuddered, and a series of cracks and pops sounded from its joints, following which it opened its eyes and rose to its feet.

It looked around in a confused manner initially, but a hint of clarity soon crept into its eyes, and its hands balled up into fists as it threw back its head and let loose a loud roar. A rumbling thunderclap erupted, and arcs of azure lightning surfaced over the beasts body.

The skeleton suddenly let loose a string of inhuman screeches, as if it were giving the monster a series of instructions.

The cow-headed monster nodded before the arcs of lightning emanating from its body intensified in brightness, and it abruptly disappeared amid another thunderclap using a lightning movement technique.

The secret chamber turned dim and silent again following its departure.

The green flames in the eye sockets of the skeleton flashed, and it cast its gaze toward the ancient lamp that had just been snuffed out before pointing a skeletal finger toward it.

Following a barely audible thump, the flame in the lamp was relit, but it was only a feeble pea-sized flame that looked as if it could be snuffed out by a gentle breeze.

After doing all that, the green flames in the skeletons eye sockets flashed a few times, and it withdrew its gaze from the ancient lamp as it cocked its head to the side in deep thought.

However, in the next instant, it suddenly swiped a finger through the air and drew a circle up ahead.

As soon as the circle took shape, spatial fluctuations erupted, and a shimmering silver mirror was manifested before the skeleton.

The skeleton opened its mouth to expel a ball of green light onto the mirror, and the mirrors surface flashed with bright spiritual light before a series of images appeared on it.

Some of these images were extremely clear, as if they were right before the skeletons eyes, while some were quite murky and indistinct, as if theyd been concealed by something. Each and every image depicted a different setting and subject, some of which were humanoid in nature while others were beastly creatures, but all of them appeared to be extremely powerful.

All of a sudden, the skeleton suddenly pointed toward the mirror, and it locked onto a single image.

The image depicted a young man with his hands clasped behind his back. He was hovering in mid-air in a completely expressionless manner and dressed in a set of azure robes.

The man in the image was none other than Han Li!

The skeleton appraised the image of Han Li in the mirror with a cold expression for a long while before waving a hand through the air in a nonchalant manner.

A crisp crack immediately rang out, and the mirror shattered down the middle before dissipating into specks of azure light.

The green flames within the skeletons eye sockets then burned for a while longer before they were also snuffed out, following which it lowered its head and fell completely motionless again. Meanwhile, Han Li had just descended next to the carcass of the monstrous moth and was carefully inspecting it.

With a beast of such a high caliber, many of its body parts would naturally be extremely rare and precious materials. However, the thing that interested Han Li the most wasnt the beasts inner core. Instead, it was those scales that could conjure up small crystalline shields, as well as the pair of giant wings that could manifest countless sharp blades. Despite Han Lis interest in the moths carcass, now wasnt the time to dissect it. As such, he rustled his sleeve, and a storage bracelet shot forth from within before expelling a swath of azure light. The carcass of the monstrous moth rapidly shrank down within the azure light before being stowed away into the storage bracelet.

After that, Han Li drew the storage bracelet back to him before inspecting his surroundings. After a brief pause for contemplation, azure light erupted from his body as he flew into the distance, traveling deeper into the island rather than away from it. A short while later, Han Li appeared above a cluster of buildings that had been reduced to rubble.

This cluster of buildings stretched for around several kilometers, and all of them were glittering and translucent, having been constructed from glacial ice.

However, all of these buildings were completely empty with only a few traces of blood and ruined scraps of clothing to indicate that theyd recently been inhabited. It seemed that everyone here had been killed by that monstrous moth. Han Lis brows furrowed as he descended toward the largest palatial building down below.

However, as soon as he landed on the ground, his expression suddenly changed as he cast his gaze toward a nearby mundane-looking pavilion. Whos there? Come out right now! Han Lis body blurred, and he abruptly appeared right in front of the pavilion with a cold expression on his face. Please spare our lives! Were merely servants of Master Silver Shark! A female voice sounded from within the pavilion. Immediately thereafter, a group of several tens of young men and women emerged from within.

This was quite a youthful-looking group of beings with most of them appearing to be around 16 to 17 years of age, and they were led by a white-robed woman who appeared to be in her twenties. As soon as they emerged from the pavilion, all of them knelt down before Han Li with horrified expressions on their faces.

Han Li glanced at this group of beings, and a hint of surprise flashed through his eyes.

At first glance, these beings appeared to be identical to normal human mortals, and none of them possessed any magic power, but upon closer inspection, one would realize that that was not actually the case.

All of these young men and women had remarkably translucent skin, and faint glacial Qi was emanating from their bodies. They were also quite sparsely dressed considering the air temperature, and they didnt seem to be fazed by the frosty conditions in the slightest.

Han Li raised an eyebrow, and he was just about to ask them a question when he suddenly turned toward another direction.

Moments later, spiritual light flashed in the distance, and two streaks of light shot forth rapidly through the air, reaching the nearby area after just a few flashes.

The lights then faded to reveal a pair of slender figures, they were none other than Qing Xiao and the woman in black.

As soon as the two women appeared, expressions of shock and elation appeared on their faces.

Senior Han, if youre here, then does that mean the giant moth… Qing Xiaos voice trailed off as an incredulous look appeared on her face.

The woman in black beside her also awaited Han Lis answer with bated breath.

Ive already killed that thing, Han Li replied with a smile.

He flicked his wrist, and the giant moth carcass was dumped onto the ground before him with a dull thump.

Chapter 1557: Lethal Poison

The giant moth hissed with pain and fury, clearly having been completely taken aback by the result of that clash. However, a vicious light then flashed through its golden eyes, and a layer of green light surfaced over hits mangled arms. The wounds on its arms began to rapidly heald as a result, and it abruptly flapped its wings again to release a vast expanse of scintillating white light.

The wings then disappeared in a flash, transforming into hundreds of shimmering flying blades, each of which was around half a foot in length.

A ferocious light flashed through the monsters eyes, and the flying blades behind it began to emit a buzzing sound, seemingly as if they were about to fly toward Han Li.

However, right at this moment, Han Li suddenly smiled as golden light flashed from his body. The golden scales and four golden arms that hed conjured up suddenly blurred before disappearing, and the giant moth was rather taken aback by this development.

All of a sudden, Han Li made a hand seal, and a loud thunderclap rang out from behind him as a pair of shimmering wings appeared on his back. With nothing more than a gentle flap of those wings, Han Li instantly disappeared on the spot.

In the next instant, another thunderclap rang out several hundred feet away, and Han Li re-emerged out of thin air. However, he didnt unleash any cultivation arts or treasures. Instead, he merely crossed his arms and appraised the giant moth with a hint of a smile on his face.

The massive moth was quite bewildered by this, but its ferocious nature instantly vanquished the doubts in its mind. It let loose a loud hiss as all of the scales on its body instantly stood up on end before it attempted to fly toward Han Li.

However, Han Li suddenly chuckled as he rubbed his hands together before uttering the words, Fall, fall, fall!

As soon as those words were uttered by Han Li, the giant moth suddenly felt a rush of dizziness, following which it began to experience an unbearable itch on its chest. A section of its body also instantly lost all feeling, and its massive body began to sway in an unsteady manner.

The monster was naturally both infuriated and alarmed, and it hurriedly looked down to discover that the tiny puncture wound on its chest still hadnt healed. Not only that, but a small section of its body had turned a dark purple color with that puncture wound at the center of that area, and a putrid smell was emanating from that section.

That was also the same section of its body that it had lost all feeling in. It appeared to have been afflicted by some kind of lethal poison!

This poison was extremely potent yet discreet, and it had completely failed to notice it until now.

The giant moth was stunned by this drastic turn of events. It immediately opened its mouth to expel a burst of green light, within which a green egg-sized bead was faintly visible. The burst of light then disappeared into the wound on its chest in a flash while the bead revolved in mid-air just in front of the wound.

At the same time, the bead began to release a peculiar fragrant aroma that immediately nullified the putrid odor emanating from the poisoned wound, and the dark purple poisoned section of its body instantly ceased spreading.

Han Li was rather surprised to see this.

He had witnessed just how potent the poison of the Revolving Evil Spirit Light was in person, and the fact that the giant moth wasnt immediately killed by the poison indicated that its body was quite resistant to toxins.

However, Han Li merely chuckled coldly upon seeing this, and brilliant azure light erupted from his body as he transformed into a massive azure bird over 100 feet in size. He then flapped his wings and hurtled toward the giant moth, sweeping up gusts of fierce azure winds in his wake.

At the same time, a loud thunderclap rang out, and thick bolts of golden lightning instantly surfaced over the massive birds body. The lightning turned the birds huge talons into a golden color before they grabbed toward the giant moth with ferocious might.

The monstrous moth down below hurriedly sent the flying blades behind it hurtling toward Han Li, but the massive azure bird merely continued to fly on ahead, completely ignoring the oncoming blades as it maintained its astonishing speed.

The flying blades quickly struck the giant bird, only to be swatted aside by its massive wings amid a string of loud clangs, rendering them completely ineffective.

This was not a surprising occurrence. After all, Han Lis physical body was already powerful to the extreme, and after undergoing his Kun Peng transformation, it was enhanced even further, so there was naturally no way that these blades would be able to harm him. In contrast, his sharp talons swept through the air like lightning and managed to tear through the monstrous moths body with ease.

The moths body was completely dismembered by Han Lis attack, but it was only an empty husk without flesh or blood within it.

The true body of the moth had disappeared, leaving only a ragged chrysalis in its place.

Even the green bead that it was using to eradicate the poison within its body was merely a projection, and it also vanished in a flash.

Han Li faltered slightly upon seeing this before blue light flashed through his massive eyes. He then flapped his wings violently a few times, and the golden arcs of lightning surging all over his body shot forth amid a string of explosive thunderclaps.

Arcs of golden lightning instantly appeared in a radius of several thousand feet, covering vast distances in the blink of an eye.

A resounding boom rang out as golden lightning exploded around 500 feet away from Han Li, transforming in countless thin arcs of lightning that flashed in an erratic manner.

These thin arcs of lightning then formed a massive golden net that was sent swooping down from above, but a streak of green light suddenly flashed from down below before piercing through the golden lightning net.

The giant moth stumbled out of the golden lightning, and at this point, around two-thirds of its body had turned into a dark purple color. It was holding that green bead in its mouth to keep the poison from spreading toward its head, and its arms and tail also seemed to be resistant to the poison to a certain degree.

Even so, it was quite clear that it was in a very sorry state and could barely even keep itself aloft.

It was no wonder that it had immediately attempted to flee the scene and didnt dare to engage Han Li in battle any longer.

Unfortunately, despite its discreet concealment techniques, it was still unable to escape the detection of Han Lis Brightsight Spirit Eyes.

In order to withstand the Divine Devilbane Lightning, it had no choice but to muster up some of its magic power, but as a result, there was insufficient magic power dedicated to repressing the poison within its body, and the toxins spread at an alarming rate.

Han Li flapped his wings and flew over to the giant moth in a flash before looking down at it from above with a cold look in his eyes.

Even though the giant bird that Han Li had transformed into wasnt actually a Kun Peng true spirit, he had absorbed its true spirit blood, so the aura emanating from his body bore a strong resemblance to that of a true Kun Peng.

A hint of fear finally flashed through the golden eyes of the monstrous moth upon seeing this, and grey light emanated from its body as it attempted to unleash some kind of movement technique in order to flee the scene.

However, in the next instant, a crisp crack suddenly sounded as the green bead that it was holding in its mouth abruptly shattered.

Both Han Li and the giant moth were quite taken aback by this unexpected development.

However, the monstrous moth then let loose a shrill screech, and piercing light erupted from its body as it swelled drastically to several times its original size.

Grey light then flashed beside its huge serpentine head, and its other feline head also appeared.

Both of its heads wore deranged expressions as it pounced toward Han Li with ferocious might, and it swung both of its arms violently through the air, conjuring up a pair of gargantuan claw projections.

The worlds origin Qi within a radius of several kilometers formed countless specks of light before being absorbed by the two giant claw projections, and they swelled drastically to encompass heaven and earth before slowly traveling toward Han Li.

In the face of the colossal claw projections, Han Li was struck by the sense that there was no way for him to evade this attack, and his pupils contracted drastically.

He let loose a clearly cry, and azure light revolved around his body as he instantly transformed into a peacock that was enveloped in five-colored spiritual light. The peacock was only around 10 feet in size, but the five-colored light swirling around its body seemed to possess some kind of mystical defensive properties.

Han Li had activated his 12 Awakening Transformations to adopt this Five-colored Peacock form.

For some reason, he had instinctively undergone this transformation in the face of the oncoming claw projections.

As a result, an astonishing turn of events unfolded.

Just as the claw projections were about to reach Han Li, the feathers from the Five-colored Peacocks body suddenly shot forth before fusing into the five-colored light around it.

The five-colored spiritual light instantly swelled to several tens of times its original size, then swept directly toward the giant claw projections.

From a distance, it appeared as if a five-colored waterfall of light was descending from above.

A hint of incredulity flashed through the massive moths eyes at the sight of the Five-colored Peacock and the five-colored spiritual light.

The giant claw projections and the five-colored waterfall of light clashed, yet the collision was completely silent and anticlimactic.

The five-colored spiritual light flashed violently a few times, and the massive claw projections somehow suddenly disappeared without a trace into the waterfall of light, as if they had never even existed in the first place.

Han Li was rather bewildered by the scenes unfolding before his eyes, and he retreated as a precautionary measure. Five-colored spiritual light flashed from his peacock body, and he suddenly appeared over 200 feet away.

After its final attack proved to be ineffective, the monstrous moth could only glower at Han Li with resentment and fury in its eyes.

However, in the next instant, the poison spread upward, and its two heads also took on a dark purple hue.

The monsters body then shuddered one last time, and its eyes glazed over as it plummeted toward the ground.

Right at this moment, the Five-colored Phoenix shrank down before reverting back into Han Lis human form, and he looked on at the plummeting moth with a cold expression, showing no intention of giving chase.

The giant moths purple body crashed onto the icy island down below before falling completely still.

Only then did Han Li made a grabbing motion, and a silver ball of flames appeared out of thin air before him.

It was none other than the Spirit Engulfing Heavenly Flames that had been trapped by the monstrous moth earlier.

The silver fireball flew immediately hurtled downward at Han Lis behest, transforming into a shimmering silver Fire Raven along the way.

The bird flew through the air as it headed directly for the giant moths carcass, preparing to plunge headfirst onto its remains.

Right at this moment, the moths two massive heads suddenly exploded in unison to form a vast expanse of blood mist. Two fist-sized balls of green flames emerged from within the mist, then fled in opposite directions.

Chapter 1556: Enormous Power

An earth-shattering boom erupted, and only a small section of the black mountain managed to sink into the grey powder before being stopped cold in its tracks, as if it were being obstructed by something.

Han Li was truly quite stunned to see this.

There was naturally no one more aware than him of just how heavy the Divine Essencefused Mountain was. At the very least, he wouldnt have been able to hoist this mountain up prior to reaching the Spatial Tempering Stage. Even after reaching the Spatial Tempering Stage, he was still only barely able to withstand the mountains ridiculous weight after activating his Provenance True Devil Arts to strengthen his body.

However, the giant moth had been able to accomplish such an incredible feat.

Despite the shock surging through his heart, Han Li immediately made a hand seal, and the golden projection overhead instantly swung its six arms through the air. All of a sudden, balls of golden light shot forth before transforming into a gust of fierce golden winds that swept forth in a frenzy.

Prior to reaching the grey powder, five blades of wind suddenly emerged from within the gale-force winds, and all of them disappeared into the vast expanse of powder in a flash.

A string of dull thumps rang out, and all of the blades of wind struck something, but they seemed to have inflicted no damage to the giant moth whatsoever.

Han Lis eyes narrowed, and the golden winds whistled through the air at his behest, instantly sweeping aside the grey powder to reveal what was hidden beneath it.

Han Li focused his gaze on the giant moth up ahead, and his expression changed drastically.

The giant moth had undergone a dramatic transformation. A layer of palm-sized dark green scales had appeared all over its body, and a serpentine tail that appeared to have been forged from iron and steel had emerged from the underside of its body. It had also grown a pair of strange arms that were as thick as water tanks and also covered in green scales. These arms were currently raised up into the air to keep the descending Divine Essencefused Mountain at bay.

Han Lis eyelids twitched upon seeing this. The transformation that the moth had undergone wasnt all that surprising to him, but how had it managed to attain such enormous power? freewbnove.com

Even while hoisting the Divine Essencefused Mountain above its head, the creature was still showing no signs of strain, thereby indicating that its strength exceeded even that of Han Li.

A cold light flashed through Han Lis eyes upon seeing this, and the pulverized fragments of his flying swords suddenly flashed with azure light, then transformed into 72 azure threads again before hurtling toward the monstrous moth.

For some reason, Han Lis instincts told him that following the giant moths transformation, it no longer possessed an immortal body. As such, he immediately conjured up his flying swords again to try and kill this beast once and for all.

A loud hiss suddenly rang out from the serpentine heads mouth, following which a series of transparent shields appeared over its green scales. All of those shields were hexagonal in shape and appeared to have been constructed from a crystalline material, forming, essentially, a suit of armor that covered its entire body.

The azure threads struck these transparent shields, only to be repelled amid flashes of white light, completely unable to damage the giant moths defenses.

Han Lis expression darkened even further upon seeing this. He was scrambling for another course of action when the giant moth suddenly straightened both of its arms, and an earsplitting boom erupted as the massive black mountain was flung into the air.

Immediately thereafter, all of the crystalline shields all over its body flashed in unison before exploding to form balls of scintillating white light, all of which converged to create an artificial white sun.

The white light was simply far too bright, even after activating his spirit eye ability, Han Li could still feel his eyes throbbing with pain. However, that split-second was enough for him to identify what lay beyond the scintillating barrier of white light, and his lips twitched in response to what he saw.

There was nothing beyond the vast expanse of white light, the giant moth had disappeared without a trace in the instant that hed closed his eyes.

However, with Han Lis extensive battle experience, he certainly wasnt going to give his opponent an opportunity to land a surprise attack on him. As such, he rustled his sleeve almost in the exact same instant that the giant moth had disappeared, and five white skulls shot forth from within. The skulls revolved around Han Li before blasting forth bursts of five-colored flames in unison, encompassing an area of over 1,000 feet.

All of a sudden, a monstrous cry erupted several hundred feet away from Han Li, and a black figure that was around 70 to 80 feet in size abruptly appeared within the five-colored flames.

It was none other than the monstrous moth that had just disappeared.

The moth had shrunk down to less than a tenth of its original size, and it was moving extremely slowly within the flames, appearing as if it had been trapped within.

Han Li was ecstatic to see this, and he immediately opened his mouth to expel a ball of silver flames and a small azure cauldron at the same time.

The silver flames transformed into a silver Fire Raven that was around a foot in size, and it immediately hurtled through the air.

Meanwhile, the small azure cauldron began to emit a faint buzzing sound before its lid flew off of its own accord. A clump of azure threads then shot forth from within before immediately vanishing on the spot.

In the next instant, spatial fluctuations erupted from above the giant moths head, and the azure threads emerged out of thin air before dispersing and instantly enveloping the giant moths body.

However, the crystalline shield reappeared all over the moths body, thereby keeping the azure threads at bay.

Only then did the silver Fire Raven reach the massive moth.

Han Li stood in mid-air in an expressionless manner while chanting something, and the silver Fire Raven opened its mouth to blast forth a thin golden and silver thread.

This was none other than the wisp of Revolving Evil Spirit Light that the Spirit Engulfing Fire Raven had devoured no long ago.

The thin thread flashed through the air and completely disregarded the crystalline shields as it punctured the months chest with ease, then emerged on the other side.

A thin puncture wound appeared on the monsters chest, but the edges of the wound were completely charred, and there was no blood dripping out from it. If this were a normal demon beast, having its chest punctured would at least be a grievous injury if not one that would kill them on the spot.

Right at this moment, the thin thread that had just punctured the giant moth swerved back and prepared to punch another hole into its body.

On this occasion, it was aiming for the moths head.

However, layers of piercing light suddenly appeared over the monstrous moths body, and it tore through the restrictive five-colored flames around it with its enormously powerful arms. It then slammed its palms together in front of its chest, and an earthshattering boom rang out, following which soundwaves that were visible to the naked eye instantly proliferated in all directions.

All of the five-colored flames in the surrounding area were swept aside by these immensely powerful soundwaves.

At the same time, the giant moth suddenly turned around to appraise the oncoming thin thread with a cold look in its golden eyes.

All of a sudden, two streaks of golden light suddenly shot forth from its golden eyes, and they combined as one before striking the oncoming Revolving Evil Spirit Light with unerring accuracy.

The two clashed, and the Revolving Evil Spirit Light transformed into a ball of golden and silver light before exploding into nothingness.

Only then did the Spirit Engulfing Fire Raven spread its wings and hurtle directly toward the giant moth.

However, the massive python head suddenly opened its mouth to blast forth a ball of black liquid that temporarily trapped the Fire Raven within.

Immediately thereafter, the giant moth abruptly whipped its massive tail through the air, and its body twisted around before flying toward Han Li like a speeding arrow. The space in front of the moth then twisted and warped, following which it suddenly disappeared.

Han Li immediately laid a finger on his own glabella upon seeing this, and black light flashed as his Law Destruction Eye appeared.

Streaks of black light then shot forth in all directions from within the eye, all of which disappeared into space in a flash.

A resounding boom rang out as one of the streaks of black light disappeared into space over 100 feet above Han Li, forcing the giant moth to reveal itself as it stumbled out of thin air.

In the instant that the monstrous moth was forced to reappeared, it fixed an intense gaze on Han Li, and two streaks of golden light shot forth from within its golden eyes.

The moth also swung its serpentine tail toward Han Li with devastating might, leaving a trail of afterimages in its wake.

At the same time, the giant moth swung its powerful arms directly toward the top of Han Lis head.

Having been wounded by Han Li on several occasions, the giant moth was at the height of its rage, and it was engaging Han Li in close-quarters combat so it could tear him apart with its bare hands in order to vent its fury.

Instead of being alarmed by this development, Han Li was quite elated that the giant moth had voluntarily closed down the distance between the two of them.

The golden projection above his head suddenly flashed before disappearing into his body, and in the next instant, he let loose a loud cry. Immediately thereafter, shimmering golden scales appeared all over his body, and four golden arms also sprouted from his back. At the same time, a golden weapon appeared in each of his hands, and they consisted of a saber, a sword, a staff, a ring, a pestle, and a mace.

His Law Destruction Eye then flashed as a thick pillar of black light shot forth to strike the two oncoming pillars of golden light.

After that, he swung his six arms through the air, and two of the golden weapons were swung toward the moths gargantuan tail while the other four manifested into a vast expanse of golden projections that formed a barrier above him.

The serpentine tail clashed with a pair of Han Lis golden weapons amid an earthshattering boom, and Han Li was knocked back a few steps by the force of the collision. At the same time, the six golden weapons in his hands also crumbled before vanishing without a trace.

However, the giant moth certainly hadnt gained the upper hand during that clash.

Not only was its serpentine tail repelled away, its two monstrous arms had clearly been severely wounded and reduced to masses of gorey flesh and blood.

This monstrous moth perhaps possessed slightly superior strength to Han Li, but its body was nowhere near as stalwart, and the small crystalline shields it had conjured up didnt appear to be very effective against attacks from actual weapons.

Chapter 1555: Intense Battle

Han Li didnt know what kind of ability those invisible fluctuations were, but even his Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords were completely unable to withstand it.

Qing Xiao and her companions faces paled again upon seeing this.

Theyd only opened up a little bit of distance between themselves and the giant moth at this point, so if it were to let loose its roars again, they would still be in a dire situation.

However, Han Li remained completely unflustered at the sight of his flying swords being destroyed. Instead, he harrumphed coldly and made a rapid series of hand seals before pointing a finger toward the distance.

An astonishing scene then ensued!

The countless azure flying sword fragments suddenly began to emit a loud buzzing sound while revolving around the massive moth. The fragments then joined together to form 72 azure flying swords again, and the two women were struck by a sense of deja vu as they witnessed those swords slicing the giant moth into countless pieces once again.

Han Li had naturally just unleashed his flying swords voidform ability, and the two women were truly flabbergasted. freewenovel.cm

However, they quickly came to their senses and flew even faster over to Han Li before stopping right beside him.

Thank you for saving our lives, Senior. However, this monster is too powerful, we should run away while we still can, Qing Xiao said in an urgent voice.

You two can do as you please. Im rather interested in this thing, so I want to see if I can kill it, Han Li replied in a calm manner.

Senior, we dont know where this beast came from, but its extraordinarily powerful, even Layman Silver Shark suffered a terrible death at its hands. I think its best to retreat first and work out a strategy before returning to try and hunt it down. The woman in black was clearly also of the opinion that a temporary retreat was the best option.

Even though Han Li just displayed the abilities of his powerful flying swords, the two women still didnt think that hed actually be able to defeat the monstrous moth.

Rest assured, you two, even if I cant defeat it, itll be no problem for me to ensure self-preservation. Han Li shook his head with a faint smile.

At this moment, grey light flashed in the distance, and the giant moths body regenerated back to its original form again. However, the monster had flown into a thunderous rage, having been killed twice n quick succession, and it began to roar and flap its wings with even greater ferocity.

Earthshattering booms akin to loud thunderclaps rang out as a series of ripples radiated from the moths body, proliferating in all directions in a frenzy.

All of the flying swords exploded into even smaller pieces that before.

However, the massive moth had learned its lesson from last time, and it continued to flap its wings violently without any respite.

The moth was being kept at bay by the flying swords, so it wasnt able to approach Han Li, but its roars immediately made Qing Xiao and her companions skin turn a deep shade of red again, as if their blood were about to escape from their bodies.

In contrast, Han Li merely furrowed his brows and activated his Provenance True Devil Arts to a slightly greater extent, thereby allowing him to ward off those negative effects. He then caught sight of the two womens dire conditions, and his hand shot forth like lightning as he thrust his palm toward them.

Golden light flashed from his hand, and two golden pillars of light disappeared into their bodies in a flash.

The two women immediately felt the churning blood within their bodies settle down to a great extent, and their flushed skin also reverted back to a more normal complexion.

Both of them immediately heaved a collective sigh of relief before thanking Han Li for his assistance.

This beasts roars are quite peculiar and can affect quite a vast area, so you two should get out of here for now, Han Li said as he waved a dismissive hand.

He could see that the space within an area with a radius of over 10,000 feet around the giant moth was twisting and warping incessantly, making it feel as if he were appraising a massive illusion.

Han Li wondered whether this was a result of the monsters roars or the invisible ripples emanating from its flapping wings.

The two women were already petrified of the monsters devastating roars, so they already intended to flee the scene. They attempted to persuade Han Li to leave with them one last time, only to met by a refusal again. As such, they could only extend respectful parting curtseys before flying away as two streaks of light again.

They fled for close to 100 kilometers, all the way until they reached the sea outside of the ice islands borders. Only there did the monstrous moths roars completely fade.

The two women stopped in mid-air before turning around to look behind them with lingering fear in their eyes.

The woman in black took a moment to compose herself before asking, Sister Qing, is that the Mr. Han you were talking about last time?

Indeed. Mr. Han possesses the same cultivation base as Layman Silver Shark, but he appears to be far more powerful, Qing Xiao replied with a nod.

No matter how powerful he is, theres no way that he could be a match for that monster! Even Layman Silver Shark and his Silverlight Shark spirit beast working together could only last a few exchanges before they were killed by that thing. That monsters lower serpentine head is even more fearsome than its upper head, Senior Hans decision to engage it in battle really is quite unwise, the woman in black sighed.

That may not necessarily be the case. It appears that Mr. Han can remain completely unscathed in the face of the moths roars, so he must have some kind of powerful protective ability. Also, the fact that hes so confident indicates that hell at least be able to get away from that thing even if he cant defeat it. Lets wait here for now for the outcome of the battle. In the worst-case scenario, well just have to gather all of the upper beings among the races here to set up a few powerful formations to combat this beast. Qing Xiao was quite confident in Han Lis abilities, and she was already thinking ahead into the future.

In the face of such a powerful monster, we can only rely on the power of spell formations. Otherwise, no matter how many people we gather, all of them will simply fall to those accursed roars. Thankfully, this thing appeared here quite early. Otherwise, in a month from now, all of the members of the hunting party will be gathering here, and even more fellow Daoists would perish, the woman in black said with a wry smile.

Thats true. I wonder where this beast came from, it doesnt appear to be a sea beast, Qing Xiao murmured to herself with a set of furrowed brows.

A hint of confusion also flashed past her companions face, and she naturally didnt have the answer to that question, either.

After the two women departed, Han Lis flying swords continued to be shattered into smaller and smaller pieces by the invisible power unleashed by the moths wings. However, Han Li merely looked on with a cold smile on his face.

This monster was at the late-Spatial Tempering Stage, and its abilities appeared to be quite powerful as well, but he certainly wasnt going to be fearful of it. After all, he was a simultaneous cultivator who had cultivated to the second part of the Provenance True Devil Arts, and he possessed several insanely powerful abilities.

Thus, he immediately made a hand seal, and brilliant golden light emanated from his body as a golden halo appeared above his head.

Within the halo, a projection with three heads and six arms gradually surfaced, and each of its six hands was making a different hand seal.

Han Li let loose a low cry, and the golden projection waved all six of its arms toward the giant moth in unison.

A string of dull thumps rang out, and six pillars of golden light that were as thick as large bowls shot forth from the projections palms. The pillars of light pierced through the warped space up ahead, and was just about to strike the massive moths body when a peculiar turn of events abruptly unfolded!

The moths gargantuan body suddenly blurred, and the six pillars of golden light were diverted away from their original paths, thereby glancing past the moth without hitting their target.

Han Li faltered upon seeing this, but he then immediately reached out with an inky-black hand before gently thrust it toward the giant moth up ahead.

A vast expanse of grey light immediately erupted from his fingertips, forming a grey light barrier that hurtled toward the giant beast in a frenzy.

The Divine Essencefused Light continued to expand drastically as it surged through the air, and it quickly encompassed virtually the entire sky.

Such a large-scale attack was quite alarming even to the monstrous moth, and its green eyes flashed as it directed all of the invisible fluctuations from its wings toward the oncoming grey light.

The grey light and invisible ripples clashed with a resounding boom akin to that of a thunderclap, and they seemed to be evenly matched as their clash resulted in a complete stalemate.

Han Lis expression darkened upon seeing this, and the five fingers on his inky-black hand suddenly curled inward slightly.

All of a sudden, a black shadow appeared within the grey light, following which a small black mountain appeared, seemingly out of thin air. The small mountain then expanded at an alarming rate, reaching over 10,000 feet in size in just a few flashes.

It was none other than the Divine Essencefused Mountain!

The giant moth faltered initially upon seeing this mountain, but it then immediately let loose a thunderous roar. The invisible ripples hurtling through the air suddenly converged, forming a semi-transparent pillar of light that was visible to the naked eye, which then sped directly toward the underside of the massive mountain.

These invisible ripples had been able to pulverize Han Lis flying swords, so it wasnt difficult to imagine their destructive power when condensed into a single pillar of light.

Prior to fusing with those strange stone blocks, the Divine Essencefused Mountain may not have been able to withstand this pillar of light. However, ever since those stone blocks had been melted into it, the mountain had become resolute to an incredible degree.

Grey light flashed from the underside of the mountain, and the pillar of light struck it amid a resounding boom.

However, the pillar of light was quickly vanquished, but it had been unable to leave so much as a single scratch on the underside of the mountain.

The giant moth was stunned to see this, and it was almost unable to believe its eyes.

In contrast, Han Li remained completely expressionless as if hed anticipated this in advance. He quickly made a hand seal, and the mountain came crashing down with devastating might.

The massive moth was still conjuring up invisible ripples with its wings, but those ripples were swept aside with ease by the Divine Essencefused Mountains enormous weight and power.

Just as the black mountain was about to crush the massive moth into mincemeat, its lion head suddenly blurred before transforming into the giant serpentine head that had its eyes closed.

The green serpentine head then abruptly opened its eyes to reveal a pair of shimmering golden pupils. It wore a frosty look on its face as it raised its head to appraise the oncoming black mountain.

An eerie hissing sound escaped its mouth, and as it continued to flap its wings, puffs of grey powder suddenly began to permeate through the air, completely enshrouding and concealing the monsters body within.

It seemed to be preparing to unleash some kind of powerful ability.

A cold look appeared in Han Lis eyes upon seeing this, and he abruptly made a hand seal, following which the black mountain accelerated in its descent, sinking into the grey powder in the blink of an eye.

Chapter 1554: Monstrous Moth

A bewildered look appeared on Han Lis face as he drew to an abrupt halt. He then immediately made a hand seal, and golden light flashed from his body as he activated his Provenance True Devil Arts.

Through doing so, he was able to forcibly repress his churning blood, but before his bodily condition had completely returned to normal, the skin on his back was suddenly struck by a scorching sensation, as if it were being directly baked over an open flame.

Han Lis brows furrowed, and he immediately took off the upper half of his robes to reveal his upper body.

He then raised a hand, and a ball of golden light shot forth before transforming into a shimmering golden mirror.

The mirror revolved in the air before appearing above Han Li, and spiritual light flashed from its surface as it instantly revealed to Han Li the scenes currently unfolding on his back.

From the image in the mirror, Han Li discovered that four extremely clear and vivid tattoo-like images had appeared on his back.

There was a vibrant rainbow phoenix, a massive azure bird, a five-claws golden dragon, and a five-colored peacock.

These were none other than the manifestations of the four true spirit bloods that Han Li had absorbed into his own body.

At this moment, not only were these four images shimmering with spiritual light, they were moving around incessantly as if theyd sprung to life. If it werent for the fact that the power of his Provenance True Devil Arts was repressing them, it appeared that the four true spirit bloods were preparing to fly out of his body.

Han Li was naturally quite astonished to see this.

He had already used the 12 Awakening Transformations to completely refine the four true spirit bloods, so how was this happening?

Furthermore, all of this had been caused by nothing more than that thunderous roar.

Han Lis mind was racing rapidly, yet before he had a chance to figure anything out, another resounding roar erupted in the distance. Brilliant light erupted from the true spirit images on his back, and they began to thrash around even more violently, as if they were attempting to find some avenue through which they could leave his body.

Han Li harrumphed coldly as he made a hand seal, and golden light radiated from his body, following which the true spirit images immediately ceased moving.

Han Li took a deep breath before waving a hand through the air, and the small golden mirror exploded with a dull thump, then dissipated into specks of golden light.

Meanwhile, Han Li transformed into a streak of azure light and flew deeper into ice island, heading directly toward the direction where the thunderous roars had erupted from.

These unsettling roars were able to disrupt the true spirit bloods that hed already refined in his body, so he certainly couldnt leave this mystery unresolved.

His decision to venture further into the island was also contributed to by the fact that hed become vastly more powerful, to the extent that virtually no beings below the Body Integration Stage could pose a substantial threat to him.

Back when he was still at the Deity Transformation Stage, he wouldve most likely been a lot more hesitant.

After just a few flashes, the streak of azure light disappeared into the distance.

The roars didnt seem to have come from very far away, but even after traveling for over 20 kilometers, Han Li still hadnt reached the source of the commotion.

Furthermore, this ice island itself was also rather strange. It seemed to have been enshrouded under some kind of natural magnetic field that significantly hampered ones spiritual sense, thereby limiting his detection radius to less than 10 kilometers.

However, after flying onward for a short while longer, Han Lis expression suddenly changed slightly as he drew to an abrupt halt.

Moments later, spiritual light flashed in the sky up ahead, and seven or eight streaks of light of different colors came hurtling toward him.

Han Li narrowed his eyes to try and get a better view of what was coming toward him, and the sight that he was greeted by sent a jolt running through his heart.

The streaks of light flying in his direction consisted of a group of cultivators, all of whom were at around the Nascent Soul Stage. All of them wore extremely horrified expressions as they flew as quickly as they could, indicating that seemed to be something extremely fearsome hunting them down.

Han Li cast his gaze into the distance behind this group of fleeing cultivators, only to find nothing there.

His brows furrowed, and he was just about to call out to these people when a thunderous roar erupted in the distance. One roar after another then rang out in a relentless sequence, and an astonishing turn of events unfolded.

As the roars rang out in quick succession, the spiritual light around the bodies of the Nascent Soul cultivators flickered unsteadily, and their skin suddenly took on a vibrant red color.

Immediately thereafter, several bloodcurdling cries sounded as these cultivators physical bodies and souls all exploded into clouds of blood mist in unison, then dissipated into nothingness.

A grim look appeared on Han Lis face upon seeing this.

Right at this moment, spiritual light flashed once again up ahead, and two more streaks of light came hurtling toward him.

Han Li focused his gaze on those two streaks of light, and a hint of surprise flashed through his eyes.

Within one of those streaks of light was a woman in a palatial dress, it was none other than Qing Xiao.

Her companion was a young woman in a black dress who was not inferior to her in the looks department. However, both of them also wore horrified expressions, and their skin had also become quite flushed amid the string of resounding roars. Fortunately for them, they were able to maintain the layers of spiritual light around their bodies, and they managed to stave off the fate of self-detonation that befell those who had come before them.

This was clearly because both of these women were mid-Deity Transformation cultivators, and their superior cultivation bases compared to the others was the key for their survival.

Even so, both of them had clearly been severely debilitated and were flying significantly slower than they would otherwise have been capable of.

Han Li raised an eyebrow, and he was just about to fly over to them when his expression abruptly changed while his pupils contracted drastically.

A murky grey shadow that was several thousand feet in size had appeared several kilometers behind the two women, and it was flying directly toward them.

The string of thunderous roars was coming from none other than that gargantuan creature, and even though Han Li had activated his Provenance True Devil Arts, he could still feel the four true spirit bloods struggling to free themselves from his body.

Even a cultivator of Han Lis powers was being adversely affected by these fearsome roars, so it was quite clear that the two women would be suffering to an even greater degree, seeing as they possessed far inferior cultivation bases compared to Han Li and were also a lot closer to the grey shadow in the distance.

As the giant creature began to close in, the two women decelerated even further, and it was as if they were flying through an invisible restriction that was exerting an immense resistant force.

As such, the massive grey shadow was able to quickly close the gap between itself and its prey, and the two women could only turn around to unleash a series of attacks.

A large bow abruptly appeared in Qing Xiaos hands, and a bone arrow was shot forth. The arrow then split into countless arrows mid-flight, conjuring up a rain of arrows that fell like a torrential downpour.

Meanwhile, her companion raised a hand, and several streaks of white light surged through the air, all of which transformed into white lightning wyrms that hurtled toward the grey shadow.

The attacks unleashed by the two women rapidly approached the grey shadow, but before they could draw close to its massive body, a burst of invisible fluctuations suddenly swept forth, causing all of the arrows and lightning wyrms to self-detonate on the spot.

The grey shadow took advantage of this opportunity close in on the two women again, and after just a few flashes, it was only around half a kilometer away from them.

Both women immediately turned deathly pale.

With their cultivation bases, if that grey shadow were to draw any closer, they would also suffer the fate of self-detonation in the face of its devastating roars.

In her panic, Qing Xiao finally caught sight of Han Li, and she immediately yelled, Mr. Han, save us! Qing Xiao was appraising Han Li as if shed just found her savior, and her female companion faltered slightly upon seeing her expression.

She then also hurriedly cast a glance at Han Li, just in time to witness a burst of piercing blue light flashing through his eyes.

Han Li had activated his spirit eye ability, and he was staring intently at the grey shadow in the distance with a grave expression on his face.

Through the use of his spirit eye ability, he was able to identify the massive creature as a flying moth-like monster.

The creatures wingspan stretched for over 1,000 feet, and it had two heads, one on the top of its body while the other was situated on the underside of its body.

Its upper head was similar to that of a furry lion with a pair of green eyes, and that head was the one responsible for letting loose those thunderous roars.

Meanwhile, its lower head belonged to that of a giant python, and the eyes on that head were tightly shut, but it was flicking its forked serpentine tongue in an erratic manner.

What is this thing? Ive never heard of anything like it!

Even with Han Lis vast wealth of knowledge and experience, he still couldnt help but draw a sharp breath at the sight of this fearsome beast. Thankfully, the demonic power emanating from the beasts body wasnt overly powerful, and it appeared to be a late-Spatial Tempering Stage being. As soon as Qing Xiaos plea for help rang out, Han Li swept both sleeves through the air, and 72 small azure swords immediately shot forth. The swords then transformed into 72 azure threads that flew through the air toward the giant moth.

Qing Xiao was the one who had invited him here and theyd conversed with one another extensively on a past occasion, so he naturally wasnt going to abandon her in such a dire situation.

Han Lis newly refined flying swords were drastically faster than they once were, and they reached the giant grey moth in a flash before piercing toward its body like lightning.

The massive moth clearly didnt expect Han Lis attacks to reach it so quickly, and it didnt have time to adopt any defensive measures before the azure threads punctured its body with ease.

The grey shadow immediately faltered, and the unsettling roars also came to an abrupt halt.

Immediately thereafter, the azure threads revolved around the giant moths body, quickly slicing it into countless pieces.

However, Han Li was not elated in the slightest by his easy victory. Instead, his eyes narrowed as a wary look appeared on his face.

Having just been saved from certain death, Qing Xiao and the woman in black were ecstatic. The massive moths roars had just cut off, thereby freeing them from its restrictive power, and they immediately took this opportunity to fly toward Han Li with all their might.

At the same time, Qing Xiao yelled out from afar, Be careful, Senior Han, this thing seems to possess an immortal body that cant be killed by normal treasures!

An immortal body? Han Li faltered slightly upon hearing this.

Right at this moment, the countless sections of the giant moths body suddenly converged, and grey light flashed as it instantly regenerated back to its original form.

Han Lis expression darkened upon seeing this, and all of his flying swords transformed into azure threads again at his behest, then hurtled toward the giant moth.

However, the massive creature let loose a thunderous roar of fury, and at the same time, it flapped its wings to emit those invisible fluctuations again. The ripples proliferated in all directions, instantly sweeping up all of the oncoming azure threads.

The azure threads shuddered in unison before reverting back to their sword form, then exploding into balls of azure light in quick succession.

Chapter 1553: Blue Lake Island

What? Youre saying that Spatial Cloud Crystal was devoured by that giant beast, and that the beast is roaming the nearby area? Han Li was rather incredulous.

Indeed. At the time, the giant beast devoured most of the entire teleportation formation, including the Spatial Cloud Crystal, and it left this region of the sea immediately thereafter. However, someone discovered this beast again over 100 years ago in the deep sea to the south. On that occasion, it was discovered by a dozen or so upper race beings, but only two of them managed to escape while the others all died. During the next several decades after that, we arranged many hunting parties to try and kill this beast in order to repair our teleportation formation, but not only was this beast extremely powerful, it possessed brains and brawn in equal measure. When there were too many people around, it would hide deep within the sea and refuse to show itself, and it would only attack stragglers or small hunting parties. As such, many cultivators perished during our attempts to slay the beast, all to no avail, Qing Xiao sighed in a resigned manner.

What kind of abilities does this beast possess to make it such a difficult opponent? Han Li asked with a peculiar look on his face.

Generally speaking, regardless of how powerful a sea beast was, it would inevitably be slain if it were to be hunted down by a group of cultivators.

We havent been able to identify what species this beast is, but it seems to be a mutated sea beast. From a distance, it appears to be a massive whale, but it can expand or shrink as it pleases, and its capable of unleashing a water movement technique that allows it to move extremely quickly in the sea. Even on the few occasions where were managed to force the beast into a dire situation, it was able to easily escape after unleashing that technique, thereby making all of our prior efforts go to waste. On top of that, the sea beast is extremely violent and ferocious. Aside from Layman Silver Shark, whos the most powerful cultivator in this region of the sea, no one dares to face the beast on their own, the young woman said with furrowed brows.

The elation on Han Lis face also faded upon hearing this. It appeared that things were not going to be as easy as he imagined.

However, a skeptical look then appeared on his face as he asked, Will the Spatial Cloud Crystal still remain in the sea beasts body after so many years? Wouldnt it have been refined or absorbed already?

Rest assured, Senior, the Spatial Cloud Crystal possesses spatial-attribute powers, so theres no way to destroy it unless an attack imbued with spatial powers is used. That sea beast possesses a diverse range of powers and abilities, but it doesnt possess spatial-attribute powers. Thats something that weve managed to ascertain after hunting it for so many years, Qing Xiao replied in a confident manner.

Han Li nodded in response before falling into deep thought.

Fellow Daoist Qing, do you know the rough location that this sea beast tends ot appear in? Han Li asked.

Do you intend to kill this beast, Senior Han? the woman asked as a grave look appeared on her face.

Indeed. It wouldnt be plausible for me to fly to the Thunder Continent. Even if I fly without any rest, itll take me the better part of a year, and unless I become significantly more powerful than I am now, Ill most likely perish along the journey considering all of the hazards that are present deep within the ocean. However, if I want to return to the continent that I was originally from, then I have no choice but to visit the Thunder Continent, which is the continent closest to us. Only there will I be able to find teleportation formations capable of teleporting people between continents, Han Li mused as he stroked his chin.

It would indeed be vastly beneficial to everyone in this region if we could repair the teleportation formation. This region of the sea has a few decent spirit veins, but cultivation resources are sorely lacking, and many people have reached bottlenecks, only to find themselves unable to progress any further. After a few more millennia, all of the cultivation resources in this area would most likely be completely exhausted. If you intend to hunt down this beast, then how about you join forces with us, Senior? the woman offered with a smile.

She then paused momentarily before continuing, Truth be told, I left my cave abode on this occasion to visit Layman Silver Shark on his island as he was trying to organize another hunting party to kill that sea beast. Ive actually come here to visit you with the intention of inviting you to come along with us, Senior.

If you can repair the teleportation formation, then of course I wouldnt mind working with all of you,Han Li replied with a smile.

Rest assured, Senior, we have all of the other materials ready, as well as capable formation masters who are able to repair the formation. All that were missing is the Spatial Cloud Crystal, Qing Xiao said with an elated expression.

Thats good to hear. Han Li nodded in response.

With your assistance, theres a good chance that well be able to succeed this time. Layman Silver Shark has asked everyone to gather on Blue Lake Island located to the south in four months, and the hunting party will set off from there to search for that sea beast. If you truly intend to join us, then youll just have to turn up on the designated date with this Silver Shark Badge. Qing Xiao flipped a hand over to produce a shimmering silver badge as she spoke.

Han Li accepted the badge from her before giving it a quick inspection.

The badge was of a gleaming silver hue, as if it had been forged from pure silver, and there was a large shark character emblazoned onto its surface.

Han Lis expression remained unchanged as he stowed the badge away.

Qing Xiao was overjoyed to see Han Li agree to join their hunting party so quickly, and she chatted with Han Li for a while longer before finally taking her leave after extending a respectful bow.

After she flew away as a streak of white light, the white light barrier appeared around the wooden cabin once again, and at the same time, the wooden doors slowly swung shut.

Over two months later, a long cry and incessant cry erupted from the foot of the small mountain, piercing straight into the heavens.

Almost all of the Fire Yang beings on the island heard this cry, and all of them turned toward that direction with bewilderment etched on their faces.

The high priestess was discussing somethings within the palace with some high-grade serpentine beings, and she immediately emerged from the palace upon hearing this sound. She stood on the plaza and cast her gaze toward the small mountain with a peculiar look on her face.

Moments later, the long cry drew to an abrupt conclusion, following which a streak of azure light shot forth from the foot of the mountain. The streak of light reached an extremely high altitude in a flash, then flew toward the edge of the island.

Not long after that, the silver streak of light appeared over the surface of the ocean several hundred kilometers away from Firecloud Island, heading toward the southern direction without any pause or delay.

Han Li flew within the streak of light in a completely expressionless manner while contemplating what he was about to do next.

If he could join forces with the hunting party and slay the sea beast, then that would naturally be the ideal outcome. After recovering the Spatial Cloud Crystal, hed be able to head to the Thunder Continent, then return to the Tian Yuan Continent from there.

If they failed to kill the beast, then hed have to wait in this area for further opportunities to arise or to hunt down the sea beast again in the future.

In any case, he was carrying a large quantity of spirit medicines, as well as that small vial, and they would be sufficient to support his cultivation for a long time.

Having said that, though, it had been a long time since Han Li had left the territory of the human race, and he was wondering what state the human race was currently in.

Had a battle with other foreign races broken out? Was Deep Heaven City still standing?

He hadnt stayed in that city for long, but he certainly didnt want to see the human race being wiped out.

In reality, the main reason why he wanted to return to the territory of the human race was because he was worried that Nangong Wan might ascend to the Spirit Realm soon.

According to his estimations, it would take quite a bit more time before Nangong Wan could ascend to the Spirit Realm through a spatial node, but he obviously couldnt reliably foresee the future.

Perhaps Nangong Wan couldve encountered some kind of miraculous opportunity that had taken her to the Deity Transformation Stage, and maybe shed already ascended to the Spirit Realm.

With his current cultivation base and abilities, he was powerful enough to protect Nangong Wan on his own in the human territories.

Even for one as calm and steadfast as Han Li, he couldnt help but be struck by a sentimental feeling at the thought of his beloved wife.

However, it only took him mere moments to cast aside that train of thought and refocus on the task at hand.

Much to Han Lis surprise, this journey was quite a smooth one.

He slew a few insolent demonic birds that dared to attack him along the way, but he didnt even encounter so much as a single sea beast. Thus, over a month later, he finally arrived in an unfamiliar region of the sea.

As he sped through the air, his spiritual sense scoured the area down below.

According to the map that he was consulting, he should have been close to the so-called Blue Lake Island. However, there were no islands to be seen in the nearby area.

Han Li felt this to be rather strange, but his expression suddenly changed slightly after he flew ahead for several tens of kilometers further, and he abruptly changed directions while accelerating at the same time.

Thus, he soon flew into a strange region of the sea.

The weather there shifted in the blink of an eye, and it began to snow over the ocean. Countless white snowflakes were swept up by the gusts of frosty winds, striking one with a bone-chilling sensation.

What was even more peculiar was that the ocean down below didnt show any signs of freezing despite the frosty weather. Instead, there seemed to be bursts of hot steam rising up from the surface of the ocean.

The hot and cold air combined and intertwined in a peculiar phenomenon, creating a vast expanse of mist over the ocean.

After flying for a while through the wind and snow, Han Li suddenly made a grabbing motion downward to draw a stream of seawater into his grasp, only to find that it was extremely hot.

Han Li raised an eyebrow as he looked on at the mist in the distance, which was only growing denser as time passed, but he merely continued onward without any pause.

As Han Li forged ahead, the wind and snow in the air above became even more frosty, but the sea was bubbling and churning as if it had reached a boiling point.

However, Han Li merely ignored these peculiar scenes and continued to fly onward.

After traveling for several tens of kilometers, the mist suddenly disappeared up ahead, and Han Li was greeted by the sight of a translucent island of ice.

The snowstorm had already ceased here, but the air temperature only plummeted even further. The seawater here had also frozen to form a thin layer of ice, creating a stark contrast with the boiling seawater that Han Li had just witnessed not long ago.

Han Li didnt take much time to ponder the issue before flying directly toward the icy island.

From a distance, he could tell that this was quite a large island, one that was several times larger than Firecloud Island.

This island was most likely the Blue Lake Island that had been annotated on the map.

With Han Lis current speed, he was naturally able to reach the edge of the island in the blink of an eye.

However, before hed flown onto the island, a thunderous roar suddenly erupted up ahead from deep within the island.

Han Lis expression changed drastically upon hearing this menacing roar, and all of the blood within his body began to churn violently.

Chapter 1552: Spatial Cloud Crystal

Following another flash, the thin thread re-entered through the light barrier, encountering no obstruction whatsoever yet again.

The Fire Raven then blasted the thin thread out of its mouth again, aiming it at a wooden chair in the room on this occasion.

The scenes that unfolded next immediately sent a stir running through Han Lis heart!

After the thin thread flashed past the wooden chair, the latter immediately turned into a pitch-black color before being corroded into nothingness.

This golden and silver thread really was extraordinarily toxic!

Han Li exhaled as he made a hand seal, and the silver Fire Raven flew toward him before disappearing into his body in a flash.

Han Li then closed his eyes and entered a meditative state.

However, in the next instant, he suddenly opened his eyes again as his brows furrowed slightly.

Right at this moment, a voice sounded from outside.

Junior Qing Xiao is here to pay her respects to Mr. Han. May I have the honor of requesting an audience with you, Mr. Han?

This was an unfamiliar female voice that carried with it an irresistible air.

Qing Xiao? Han Li was rather perplexed. He was sure that this was definitely the first time hed heard such a name.

With that in mind, Han Li released his spiritual sense, and it passed through the white light barrier, thereby allowing him to glean the scenes outside the wooden cabin.

There, he discovered a woman who appeared to be in her mid-twenties in an azure palatial dress. She was extremely beautiful, and there was an indescribable air of regal grace about her.

Han Li swept her spiritual sense toward her to find that this young woman possessed a mid-Deity Transformation Stage cultivation.

After a brief pause, he slowly asked, Who are you? Youre not a Fire Yang being from Firecloud Island, are you? How do you know that Im staying here?

Im the master of Bai Zhuer of the Fire Yang Race. I heard that the Fire Yang Race was in grave danger, so I came here to offer them my assistance, but I heard that you had already saved the entire race. My disciple told me that youre immensely powerful and could be a senior of the upper three tiers of upper race, so I decided to pay you a visit in the hopes that I could perhaps learn something, the woman said with an earnest smile on her face.

Youre that little girls master? Alright, I wanted to come out of seclusion in the next few days anyway, and I also have some questions for you. Seeing as youve paid me a visit, it looks like I have no choice but to meet you, Han Li chuckled.

Before Qing Xiao had a chance to reply again, the white light barrier around the wooden cabin suddenly dissipated, immediately following which the wooden door opened of its own accord.

The woman hesitated briefly before calmly making her way into the cabin.

After entering the cabin and catching sight of Han Li, a hint of surprise flashed through the womans eyes.

It was quite clear that Han Lis youthful appearance came as quite a surprise to her. However, a respectful look immediately appeared on her face after she swept her spiritual sense toward Han Li, and she extended a curtsey as she said, You really are a being of the upper three tiers of the upper race, it appears I was right to come here.

Your cultivation base is nothing to be scoffed at, either, Fellow Daoist. Take a seat, Han Li said in a calm manner as he inspected the woman with a faint hint of blue light flashing through his eyes.

Qing Xiao expressed her gratitude before taking a seat on a wooden chair beside the bed.

Youre using wind-attribute cultivation arts, right? Han Li suddenly asked.

His question immediately brought a hint of surprise to the womans face.

How did you know, Senior? Could it be that weve met before? Qing Xiao asked.

Thats not the case. Its just that your movements are quite light and graceful, and the aura of the treasures youre carrying are all of the wind attribute, so I deduced that you were perhaps a wind-attribute cultivator, Han Li explained in a calm manner.

Han Lis reply was quite nonchalant, but the woman was quite stunned. It wasnt difficult to identify a persons cultivation base at a glance, but it was quite extraordinary that he was able to even identify the attributes of the treasures hidden within her body.

As these thoughts raced through her mind, the expression on Qing Xiaos face became even more respectful as she carefully said, Your wisdom is truly unmatched, Senior! I am indeed mainly using wind-attribute cultivation arts. I heard from Zhuer that youre a sword cultivator, and that youre not from our Flame Coral Islands, Senior, may I ask if youre from the Thunder Continent or perhaps elsewhere in this nearby region?

Han Li smiled upon hearing this, and he replied, Im neither from the Thunder Continent nor from anywhere nearby.

Qing Xiaos brows furrowed slightly upon hearing this, but a thought then suddenly occurred to her as she exclaimed, Does that mean youre from another continent, Senior?

You really are a smart person, Fairy Qing, Han Li replied with a smile.

Qing Xiaos heart jolted with shock upon hearing Han Lis admission.

Only after a long while did the shock on her face fade, and she exhaled as she said, The fact that you were able to get here from another continent is a testament to your abilities, Senior. Its no wonder that you were able to kill those two Black Rakshasa Monarchs so easily. However, most seniors from other continents traveling to our Thunder Continent wouldnt pass through our Flame Coral Islands, so youre the first cultivator from another continent to have graced this region in the past 10,000 years.

Hehe, when you put it that way, I feel quite honored. However, I must clarify something, I never intended to come here, and I only ended up in this place as a result of an accident, Han Li replied with a wry smile.

Regardless of how you got here, its undeniable that you possess extraordinary powers, Senior. Ive encountered a few issues with my cultivation recently, would you be able to enlighten me, Senior? Qing Xiao asked with a smile.

I wouldnt dare to claim that I can provide you with enlightenment, but we certainly exchange our knowledge with one another, Han Li replied with a calm nod.

Qing Xiao was ecstatic to hear this, and she immediately expressed her gratitude.

She was naturally aware that even though Han Li was speaking about this as if it were a fair exchange, she was the one that would be benefitting far more from this due to the vast disparity between their cultivation bases.

Thus, the woman began to make cultivation related inquiries to Han Li. Even though the cultivation arts they were using differed quite drastically, there were common issues that the vast majority of cultivators encountered at certain points in their cultivation.

Han Li made no effort to hide anything, either. After carefully listening to the issues she raised, he really did give her some useful instructions.

Even though he didnt say much, he was still a Spatial Tempering cultivator, so his guidance was undoubtedly vastly beneficial to Qing Xiao.

As such, she was ecstatic as she listened with rapt focus, and her eyes were bright with excitement.

Of course, the woman also revealed some of her cultivation secrets during this process, and some of those aspects were also somewhat helpful to Han Li as well.

Thus, the two of them conversed with each other for half a day. After Han Li answered the womans final questions, she closed her eyes and silently processed his response for a long while before suddenly opening her eyes. She then rose to her feet and extended a grateful bow toward Han Li as she said, Thank you for your guidance, Senior. Your teachings have saved me at least several decades of arduous cultivation.

It wasnt much, I was merely answering your questions. Besides, I have some things that Id like to ask you as well, so itll be an exchange of sorts, Han Li replied in a calm manner. freweovel.co

Please ask me any questions you may have, and Ill be sure to answer them to the best of my ability, Senior, Qing Xiao declared without any hesitation.

I dont have any particularly complex questions, I just wanted to ask you if there were any long-distance teleportation formations nearby that could teleport me to another continent, Han Li said in a serious voice.

Teleportation formations? Are you trying to get back to your own continent, Senior? Qing Xiao immediately guessed Han Lis intentions.

Indeed. Im almost fully healed from my injuries, and I dont intend to stay here for much longer. According to my experience, long-distance teleportation formations should exist in all places inhabited by large numbers of cultivators, Han Li replied with a nod.

A wry smile appeared on Qing Xiaos face upon hearing this. That is indeed true, Senior, but Im going to have to disappoint you.

What? There are no teleportation formations here? Han Lis heart sank a little upon hearing this.

If youd come here several thousand years ago, then there would still be a teleportation formation on Flame Coral Islands that led straight to the Thunder Continent. However, this formation was destroyed by a massive beast from another region of the sea thousands of years ago, and the high-grade cultivators guarding the formation have also all been devoured by this beast. Unless youre confident in your abilities to fly to the Thunder Continent, Im afraid this region of the sea is virtually inescapable, Senior Han. I presume thats also why the Black Rakshasa Race were able to reveal themselves in such a reckless manner and suddenly attack the Naga Race, Qing Xiao sighed.

Han Li was silent for a long while before a grim expression appeared on his face, and he asked, Is there no way to repair the teleportation formation?

If we had sufficient materials, it would certainly be possible to repair the formation, Qing Xiao replied.

Oh? From the sounds of it, the main caveat here is the inability to gather sufficient materials? Han Li asked as he raised an eyebrow.

He was carrying many types of rare materials, so he was starting to grow hopeful again.

Weve gathered most of the materials required, but the main core that ensures the function of the teleportation formation is a chunk of Spatial Cloud Crystal, and that material is extremely rare. There are only a few mines that produce such a material on our Thunder Continent, and its impossible to find it here, the woman explained.

Spatial Cloud Crystal? Han Lis brows immediately furrowed upon hearing this.

It was his first time hearing such a name. However, that was not all that surprising. After all, teleportation formations were extremely profound, and each continent most likely had a different method of constructing them, thereby necessitating the use of different materials.

Just as Han Lis expression was gradually darkening even further, Qing Xiao suddenly said something that instilled him with renewed hope.

Chapter 1551: Black Veil

Han Li smiled as he stowed away his flying swords and black mountain. He then rustled a sleeve, and a ball of golden light shot forth before transforming into a small leopard-like beast that landed on the ground several feet in front of him.

It was none other than his Leopard Kirin Beast.

The Fire Yang beings faltered initially upon seeing this beast, but all of them drew sharp breaths after sweeping their spiritual sense toward it.

The immensely powerful aura emanating from the body of this little beast sent chills running down even the high priestess spine.

Go and kill all of the Black Rakshasa beings, Han Li instructed in a concise manner.

A ferocious light appeared in the Leopard Kirin Beasts eyes upon hearing this, and its body swayed as it manifested seven or eight identical projections, all of which rushed out of the palace at once.

The beastly projections merely blurred before reappearing several hundred feet away, and after just another, theyd completely disappeared out of sight.

The speed at which they were moving was truly astonishing.

The woman only managed to barely recompose her expression after a short while, but the shock in her heart still lingered.

A thought then immediately occurred to her, and she suddenly produced a badge before rapidly pointing at it a few times while chanting something.

Spiritual light immediately flashed from the badge, and the five-colored light barrier outside the palace instantly vanished.

Seeing as everything has been taken care of here, Ill be going back to rest now. Dont worry about that spirit beast, itll come back to me after all of the enemies have been destroyed, Han Li said in a calm manner.

Before the Fire Yang beings could express their gratitude toward him again, azure light flashed from his body, and the flew out of the palace as a streak of azure light, disappearing into the distance in the blink of an eye.

The Fire Yang beings were left to their own devices with awestruck expression in their eyes.

After a long while, one of the white-robed serpentine beings heaved a sigh of relief, and said, Thank heavens you convinced this Mr. Han to stay, High Priestess. Otherwise, our entire race wouldve most likely been eradicated.

Indeed! We were all quite perplexed by High Priestess decision to give the divine pill away to an outsider, but I can see now that weve been far too short-sighted, another white-robed priest chimed in with a nod.

However, a wry smile appeared on the womans face upon hearing these words of praise.

You two think far too highly of me. I only gave the divine pill away as there was no other alternative, and thankfully, my final roll of the dice resulted in a favorable outcome. We were blessed by the heavens to have discovered someone as powerful as Mr. Han. Zhuer, how do you think Mr. Han compares with your master? The woman turned to her daughter with a serious look on her face.

Bai Zhuers brows furrowed slightly upon hearing this, and only after a brief pause did she hesitantly reply, My master is a fifth-tier upper race being, but even if she were here in person, itd still most likely be a lot more difficult for her to slay those two Black Rakshasa Monarchs.

The young womans reply was rather ambiguous, but the implications behind her words were quite apparent, and the woman nodded in response. reewebovel.com

However, peculiar expressions appeared on the faces of the white-robed priests upon hearing this, and one of them murmured, Could it be that Mr. Han is a powerful upper race being? In that case, even the most powerful being in the nearby region, Layman Silver Shark, wouldnt be a match for him.

That may not necessarily be the case. Layman Silver Shark is an upper third-tier being, and cultivation arts, as well as treasures, are extremely important in deciding the outcome of battles, so it would be unfair for us to make such comparisons, the woman replied.

All of the white-robed serpentine beings nodded with contemplative expressions upon hearing this, and they all fell silent.

After a while, someone finally broke the silence. How long does Mr. Han plan to stay on Firecloud Island? Does he have any intention of permanently settling here?

The woman could sense what the priest was trying to ask, and she immediately shook her head before replying, Im not sure, but he most likely wont leave right away. Having said that, its also very unlikely that he would choose to stay on our island permanently. Someone of Senior Hans powers surely wouldnt be willing to confine themselves to a small island like ours.

The other white-robed serpentine beings furrowed their brows upon hearing this, and the entire palace fell silent again.

Alright, well discuss these matters another time. The battle outside hasnt reached a conclusion yet. Even though the two Black Rakshasa Monarchs have been slain, there could still be other high-grade Black Rakshasa beings out there. Mr. Hans spirit beast is indeed quite powerful, but we cant just let it do all the work for us, so lets join the battle outside as well. The sooner we can get rid of all of these Black Rakshasa beings, the fewer casualties our race would incur, the woman suddenly instructed.

All of the white-robed serpentine beings immediately bowed and nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

Thus, the six of them flew out of the palace and rushed toward the locations where the battle was most intense.

A short while later, Han Li returned to his wooden cabin and reactivated the restriction before taking a seat on the wooden bed in a cross-legged manner.

A contemplative look then appeared on his face.

The two most powerful Black Rakshasa Monarchs had already been slain, so the Leopard Kirin Beast would be more than enough to take care of the rest of the battle.

As such, hed already returned the favor for the pill that the woman had bestowed upon him. All he had to do now was rest and recover for around half a year, and he should be back to his peak condition.

With that in mind, a faint smile appeared on Han Lis face. However, a thought then suddenly occurred to him, and he abruptly flipped a hand over. Black light flashed, and a thin veil appeared over his hand.

This was none other than one of the treasures hed taken from the remains of the Black Rakshasa Monarchs.

Han Li stared at the veil in his hand, and an intrigued look appeared on his face.

This was a thin black veil that was quite smooth and soft to the touch, and also gave off a rather cool sensation. Just by adjusting the orientation of the veil under the light, Han Li could see faint black runes on its surface, clearly indicating that it was no ordinary treasure.

After inspecting the veil for a while, Han Li extended a finger toward it, and azure light flashed from his fingertip as he injected a vast amount of pure spiritual power into the treasure.

He then flicked his wrist, and the black veil rose up into the air before transforming into a piece of semi-transparent material that was around 10 feet in size.

Han Li inspected the item through narrowed eyes, then cast an incantation seal toward it.

The incantation seal disappeared into the black veil in a flash, following which it descended toward Han Li and completely obscured his body.

An astonishing scene then ensued.

In the instant that the veil landed on Han Lis body, he suddenly became quite blurry and indistinct, and he completely disappeared after a few flashes.

A hint of surprise appeared on Han Lis face as he inspected his hands, then glanced at his concealed body. Immediately thereafter, blue light suddenly flashed within his eyes, and it was only growing brighter and brighter.

Moments later, a faint smile appeared on his face.

As expected he was unable to see through this veils concealment ability unless he activated his spirit eye ability to its very maximal extent.

Those two Black Rakshasa beings had presumably used these treasures to sneak their way into the palace.

With that in mind, Han Li released a wisp of spiritual sense and attempted to pierce through the veil with it.

However, as soon as his spiritual sense made contact with the black veil, he felt as if it had fallen into a vast expanse of illusionary mist, making it completely impossible for it to pass through the veil. It appeared that this treasure was responsible for his inability to identify the cultivation bases of the two Black Rakshasa Monarchs.

After a brief moment of contemplation, he suddenly grabbed onto a corner of the black veil before casting an incantation seal.

Black light flashed from the veil, and it abruptly disappeared into his robes.

Han Li then used his spiritual sense to assess his own body several times, following which a pleased look appeared on his face.

This black veil was indeed quite a brilliant treasure as it had exemplary concealment abilities.

In fact, it was second only to the High Zenith Invisibility Talisman among the concealment treasures that he possessed.

The High Zenith Invisibility Talisman did indeed possess extraordinary concealment abilities, but it also had many limitations. Not only did it severely hamper his speed, the treasures and cultivation arts he could use with the talisman activated were also significantly restricted.

In contrast, the black veil was slightly inferior in terms of concealment ability, but it had none of the aforementioned drawbacks. Furthermore, its concealment ability would become more potent the more powerful its user was.

If it werent for the fact that the two Black Raksha Monarchs possessed cultivation bases that were far inferior to his, he wouldnt have been able to see through them so easily.

Han Li experimented with the black veil for a while longer before stowing it away.

After that, Han Li closed his eyes and began to engage in silent cultivation.

Golden light flashed from his body, and golden halos proliferated above his head as the seated golden projection appeared once again.

Han Li remained completely still, and several days passed by in a flash.

During this time, the woman had brought a batch of rare spirit medicines and high-grade spirit stones to his doorstep in person.

On that occasion, Han Li hadnt opened the door to greet her. Instead, he merely asked her to place the medicines and spirit stones outside the door, clearly indicating that he had no intention of entertaining any guests during the upcoming period of time.

The woman naturally didnt dare to express any displeasure toward this, and she immediately set the items down outside the wooden cabin before taking her leave.

Only then did Han Li get the Weeping Soul Beast to carry the items into the room. Throughout this process, he didnt leave his bed nor open his eyes even once.

One day passed by after another, and several months flew by in a flash.

During this time, none of the higher-ups of the Fire Yang Race dared to disturb Han Li again.

On this day, Han Li suddenly opened his eyes, then opened his mouth to expel a ball of silver flames. The silver flames immediately transformed into a fist-sized silver Fire Raven.

It was none other than the Spirit Engulfing Fire Raven!

Han Li looked at the Fire Raven, and a hint of surprise flashed through his eyes.

At first glance, the birds appearance didnt appear to have changed at all, but after sweeping his spiritual sense toward it, he discovered that something seemed to have appeared within its body.

Blue light flashed through his eyes, and he was finally able to identify what this thing was.

Within the silver flames, a series of barely visible golden threads had appeared.

These golden threads had only appeared after the Spirit Engulfing Heavenly Flames had completely refined the so-called Revolving Evil Spirit Light, so there was most likely a direct correlation between the two.

After a brief moment of contemplation, Han Li made a hand seal before pointing a finger at the silver Fire Raven in front of him.

The Fire Raven immediately spread its wings before flying in circles in the air above Han Li.

Immediately thereafter, the Fire Raven opened its mouth to blast forth a thin golden and silver thread.

The thread struck the restriction that Han Li had set up in a flash, and the white light barrier tremored slightly before the thin thread was able to pass through it without any impediment.

Chapter 1550: Slain

The giant blade was completely inky black with an arc of golden and silver light flashing at its center, creating a rather mysterious sight to behold.

A resounding boom rang out, and a massive golden hand that was no smaller than the blade appeared beneath the latter before lifting it upward.

The two clashed, and black and golden light flashed violently. The massive golden hand remained completely still, and the giant blade was forced to falter in mid-air.

Both the Black Rakshasa beings were stunned to see this. However, the golden-eyed Black Rakshasa being then immediately made a hand seal, and her body instantly swelled to several times its original size. At the same time, golden light flashed from her tail, and a massive golden hooked tail was manifested, then hurled toward Han Li like lightning.

Meanwhile, the silver-eyed Black Rakshasa being opened her mouth, and a sinister look flashed through her eyes as she let loose a guttural beastly snarl.

Immediately thereafter, a swath of white mist appeared above her head. Silver light flashed within the mist, and a giant man-faced centipede projection emerged.

The silver light flashed again, and the projection also pounced toward Han Li as a streak of silver light. The man-faced centipede opened its cavernous mouth mid-flight, and a vast expanse of silver light was expelled from within.

In the face of this joint attack unleashed by the two Black Rakshasa Monarchs, Han Li continued to remain completely expressionless.

He merely swept a sleeve through the air, and several tens of small azure flying swords shot forth. These swords then blurred before flying toward the giant golden hook as azure sword projections.

The golden hook emitted a ringing sound as countless runes suddenly appeared on its surface, making it appear as if it were about to unleash some kind of powerful ability.

However, in the next instant, azure light flashed, and the azure sword Qi converged upon the golden hook, following which the latter let loose an anguished wail before plummeting from above, having been sliced into countless pieces.

The golden-eyed Black Rakshasa being was quite stunned to see this.

At the same time, Han Li raised his other hand in the face of the man-faced centipede, and he spread open his five fingers as his hand turned into an inky-black color. A grey light barrier then instantly appeared before Han Li, keeping the silver light unleashed by the centipede at bay.

After that, silver light flashed from the center of his palm, and a miniature black mountain suddenly appeared.

Han Li took a glance at the oncoming man-faced centipede and flipped his hand over in a nonchalant manner.

An astonishing scene then ensued.

The miniature mountain instantly disappeared as he did so, and in the next instant, spatial fluctuations erupted above the man-faced centipede, following which the miniature mountain appeared amid a flash of grey light.

At the same time, the miniature black mountain swelled drastically to over 100 feet tall in the blink of an eye before crashing down upon the man-faced centipedes back with devastating force.

A look of excruciating pain appeared on the human face of the centipede projection, and it let loose a series of shrill screeches as its body was forced to plummet from the sky by the immense weight of the Divine Essecefused Mountain.

The silver-eyed Black Rakshasa being was stunned to see this, and she hurriedly made a series of hand seals. As she did so, a series of silver lines appeared on her gorgeous feminine face, presenting quite a sinister sight to behold. гeewenvel.com

She then opened her mouth to expel a mouthful of silver blood essence, and as soon as this blood essence appeared, it transformed into a string of silver runes amid a dull thump. These silver runes then disappeared in a flash into the body of the centipede projection.

As a result, the man-faced centipede seemed to have received a significant power boost. Silver light flashed from its body, and it began to squirm beneath the black mountain. In fact, half of its body had already coiled around the lower half of the mountain, and it was attempting to topple the mountain through brute strength alone.

A peculiar look appeared on Han Lis face upon seeing this, and he pointed at the mountain from afar while uttering the word heavy.

The black mountain shuddered as a burst of mundane grey light emanated from it. Its form didnt appear to have changed at all, but its weight was suddenly increased in excess of tenfold.

The man-faced centipede was just barely able to withstand the immense weight of the mountain a moment ago, but that fine balance was instantly shattered as it was sent plummeting down from above like a shooting star.

An earthshattering boom erupted, causing the entire palace to tremor violently, and the small black mountain forced the man-faced centipede firmly into the ground.

A crater that was around 300 feet in size and over 10 feet deep was smashed into the ground, and the black mountain sat firmly at the center of the crater. The man-faced centipede beneath it let loose a cry of anguish before dissipating into specks of silver light.

The strange stone blocks that Han Li had fused with the Divine Essecefused Mountain were comparable in weight to gargantuan mountains, so the mountain was certainly far too heavy for the centipede to withstand.

In the instant that the centipede protection was destroyed, the silver-eyed Black Rakshasa beings face paled, and she threw up a mouthful of blood.

However, the blood was of a blackish-red color on this occasion, rather than silver color it had been before.

All of this had taken place in the mere span of just a few breaths.

The golden-eyed Black Rakshasa being was still reeling from the fact that her giant golden hook had been vanquished so easily by Han Lis flying swords, and her expression abruptly changed as she realized that her companion had sustained significant injuries. As such, her body swayed, and she immediately appeared behind the silver-eyed Black Rakshasa being before laying a hand on her back.

Golden and silver light flashed from the silver-eyed Black Rakshasa beings body, and her complexion improved significantly.

Han Li harrumphed coldly upon seeing this before pointing a finger toward the several tens of azure flying swords in the air.

All of the flying swords shuddered before flashing toward his two opponents as lightning-fast azure threads.

Shock and horror finally appeared on the faces of the two Black Rakshasa beings upon seeing this, and they exchanged a glance before suddenly raising an arm each. Two more balls of black light surfaced as a result before enshrouding their bodies.

Right in that instant, the azure threads struck the black light. A cold expression appeared on Han Lis face, and he immediately activated his sword arts without any hesitation.

All of the azure threads shuddered at his behest before transforming into azure flying swords, each of which was around a foot in length. However, all of them had become extremely faint, as if theyd been turned into mere projections.

This was none other than the voidform ability that Han Lis newly refined flying swords had obtained.

In their new insubstantial form, the swords were able to puncture through the black light in their way without any impediment!

The two Black Rakshasa beings were clearly caught completely off guard by this incredible development, and they immediately fled for their lives with shock and horror etched on their faces at the sight of the oncoming flying swords.

However, the swords were far too fast for them to evade at such close quarters.

The flying swords pierced through the air, and two howls of anguish rang out in quick succession as countless bolts were punctured into the bodies of the two Black Rakshasa Monarchs.

All of the Fire Yang beings were ecstatic to see this.

However, blue light suddenly flashed in Han Lis eyes, and his body swayed as he arrived beside the remains of the two Black Rakshasa beings, leaving a trail of afterimages in his wake. He then extended both arms at once before grabbing the nearby air like lightning.

A layer of silver flames immediately erupted from each of his hands, and two balls of light, one golden and one silver, were forced out of thin air, then enveloped by these fierce silver flames.

The balls of light were then revealed to be a golden centipede and a silver centipede.

The two centipedes were only several inches in size, but they each had the face of a female human that were identical to the faces of the two Black Rakshasa Monarchs.

The two centipedes were trapped within the silver flames, screeching incessantly with expressions of shock and horror on their faces.

The golden and silver light emanating from their bodies was one other than the Revolving Evil Spirit Light, and they wouldve been able to escape in the face of any other ability. Unfortunately for them, Han Lis Spirit Engulfing Heavenly Flames completely dominated their Revolving Evil Spirit Light, thereby placing them at his mercy.

Han Li had no intention of letting these two go. He joined his flaming hands and rubbed them together in a casual manner.

The golden and silver lights being emitted from the bodies of the two centipedes quickly dissipated, and the centipedes themselves were then reduced to nothingness by the silver flames.

Only then had Han Li truly slain the two Black Rakshasa Monarchs.

However, he didnt think much of this. During their clashes, he was able to deduce that these two were merely early-Deity Transformation Stage beings at most, and if it werent for their Revolving Evil Spirit Light, he wouldve slain them within seconds.

However, Han Li was rather intrigued by the fact that he had been unable to detect their cultivation bases with his spiritual sense. As such, his gaze immediately fell on the remains of the two Black Rakshasa beings.

He made a grabbing motion, and both sets of remains slowly flew up into the air toward him.

Han Lis eyes narrowed slightly, and blue light flashed from his pupils as he conducted a thorough examination.

All of a sudden, his eyes lit up, and he waved a hand toward each of the two sets of remains.

Two sections of black veil emerged from the bodies of the two women before landing in his grasp.

Han Li took a quick glance at the black veils before immediately flipping his hands over, upon which they disappeared.

At this moment, the woman made her way over to Han Li with her daughter by her side, and she wore an elated look as she said, Thank you for your assistance, Senior Han! Our Fire Yang Race will never forget your kindness!

As for the two black veils that Han Li had just taken, she didnt mention anything about them and merely pretended as if she had never even seen them.

Only then did she truly understand that Han Li was far more powerful than shed imagined. As such, her heart was filled with gratitude as well as awe and veneration.

The two Black Rakshasa beings had seemed virtually invincible to Bai Zhuer, yet Han Li had just slain them with ease, so her heart was filled with astonishment and awe.

Even though she didnt say anything, there was clearly a more respectful look in her eyes as she cast her gaze toward Han Li.

As for all of the other serpentine priests, all of them also gathered around with respectful smiles on their faces.

Hehe, it wasnt much. Seeing as Ive already decided to help you, Ill take care of all of the other Black Rakshasa beings outside as well, Han Li chuckled.

All of the Fire Yang beings were naturally ecstatic to see this, and they all expressed their gratitude again.

Chapter 1549: Revolving Evil Spirit Light

A loud boom erupted as all of the attacks exploded upon making contact with the black light, threatening to tear it apart in an instant.

However, right at this moment, golden and silver light suddenly erupted from within the black light, and the golden and silver light swelled drastically before splitting into two.

A vast expanse of black light appeared over a radius of several tens of feet with golden and silver light shimmering at its center. All of the bone arrows, silver saber projections, and the fiery wyrm vanished without a trace into the black light.

The devastating combined attack had disappeared as if it had never even existed in the first place. What remained was a pair of still figures enshrouded black light, inspecting everyone around them with cold looks in their eyes.

Revolving Evil Spirit Light! the high priest exclaimed as her heart sank upon seeing this.

All of a sudden, the pair of Black Rakshasa beings joined hands while pointing their spare hands directly at the woman and her daughter.

The black light split up, and two thin threads, one golden and one silver, shot forth from within.

Dodge! Dont take it head-on! the woman hurriedly warned as she turned to Bai Zhuer. At the same time, white light flashed from her body, and she flew back as a streak of white light to take evasive measures.

The young womans heart also jolted with shock, and she wanted to evade as well, but it was already too late for her with her Core Formation Stage cultivation base. A thin golden thread appeared before as if by instantaneous teleportation, and she had no choice but to let loose another bone arrow in response.

On this occasion, instead of splitting up into countless more arrows, the bone arrow transformed into a pillar of light that was around as thick as an arm before striking the oncoming thin thread.

The size difference between the two was quite a significant one, but their clash was completely soundless.

Immediately thereafter, the pillar of light faltered before suddenly shooting back.

The young woman was completely caught off guard by this sudden development, and she didnt have any time to adopt any defensive measures. As such, she could only let loose a cry of surprise before reflexively using her bow as a shield.

She was the one who had unleashed that arrow, so she was naturally well aware of just how powerful it was. If she were to be struck by this reflected attack, both her body and soul would instantly be reduced to nothingness.

She could even already hear a cry of despair from her mother.

In the next instant, the bow in her hands was blasted away by the pillar of light, and a scorching sensation immediately enveloped her entire body.

Her face turned deathly pale, and she could only close her eyes to await her inevitable doom.

Right in this instant, someone suddenly grabbed the back of her collar and gently wrenched her away, following which she abruptly disappeared amid a flash of azure light.

An earthshattering boom then rang out, and the young woman opened her eyes with a startled look on her face to find that she was currently situated over 100 feet from where shed been standing just a moment ago. The pillar of light had passed through the exact spot where she was situated before crashing into the wall of the palace.

It clashed with the five-colored light restriction amid a flash of piercing spiritual light before being reduced to nothingness.

However, the thin thread behind the pillar of light didnt also follow suit and crash into the wall. Instead, it abruptly changed direction and hurtled toward the young woman again.

Argh! The young woman let loose a cry of alarm.

However, before she had a chance to do anything, her collar tightened, and the scenes around her blurred as she was wrenched elsewhere again.

Only then did the young woman return to her senses, and she hurriedly turned her head to discover a man standing behind her with a calm expression and a hand laid casually on her back.

This man was naturally none other than Han Li!

After the golden thread in the distance missed its target, it suddenly swerved around to fly toward the young woman again as if it refused to rest until she was dead.

Elsewhere in the palace, the high priestess was also desperately evading a similar silver thread.

However, she was a Nascent Soul Stage being, after all, and with the four white-robed serpentine beings assisting her in keeping the silver thread at bay, she was able to just barely ensure self-preservation for now.

So it can reflect attacks, thats quite interesting! Han Li murmured to himself before sweeping a sleeve through the air, and a swath of grey light instantly appeared before Bai Zhuer.

However, the golden thread merely faltered for a split second after plunging into the Divine Essencefused Light before puncturing through it without any impediment.

Bai Zhuers face paled again upon seeing this.

However, a layer of five-colored flames then immediately appeared thereafter to enshroud the golden thread again.

The extraordinarily fast thin thread immediately slowed down significantly after entering the five-colored flames, as if it were a fish caught in a net.

A hint of a smile appeared on Han Lis face, but his smile quickly stiffened in the next instant.

This was because the thin thread suddenly pierced through the five-colored flames just as it had done with the Divine Essencefused Light, then continued on toward the young woman.

Following this startling turn of events, Bai Zhuers heart sank even further, and she was well and truly in despair.

However, what unfolded next had her flabbergasted yet again.

The thin thread swayed and suddenly disappeared on the spot without any premonition.

In the next instant, spatial fluctuations erupted before Han Li, and the golden thread emerged before flying directly toward his face at an astonishing speed!

A hint of surprise flashed through Han Lis eyes, but he made no effort to evade as a cold look appeared on his face, and he opened his mouth in response.

A ball of silver flames erupted from his mouth, crashing into the golden thread in a flash.

An astonishing turn of events then unfolded.

Even the Divine Essencefused Light and five glacial flames were unable to trap the golden thread, yet it was stopped cold by the silver flames as if it had encountered the bane of its existence, and it curled up into an egg-sized ball amid a faint sizzling sound.

The silver fireball then transformed into a small silver bird, while the golden ball melted away within its body at a rate that was discernible to the naked eye, vanishing into nothingness in virtually an instant.

The silver Fire Raven then spread its wings and let loose a triumphant cry before disappearing in a wraith-like manner.

In the next instant, silver light flashed before the silver thread that was giving the high priestess an extremely hard time, and the Fire Raven reappeared before devouring the pesky thread.

A dull thump then rang out as the silver Fire Raven exploded on the spot, dissipating into specks of silver light.

Only then did Han Li turned toward the pair of Black Rakshasa beings with a hint of a smile on his face.

The previous sequence of clashes seemed to be quite complex, but they actually only lasted the span of a few breaths.

All of the Fire Yang beings heaved a long sigh of relief, having just escaped that life-threatening ordeal. Only then did they finally understand how the higher-ups of the other two races had been eradicated so easily.

The high priests of the other two races were inferior in power to their high priestess, even before shed consumed the immortal fruit. However, even after consuming the immortal fruit to forcibly enhance her cultivation base, there was still no way that she couldve been able to take even a single attack from that Revolving Evil Spirit Light.

As such the woman was ecstatic that Han Li just so happened to possess an ability that could oppose this light.

It was quite clear that none of them would be able to oppose these two Black Rakshasa Monarchs, so they had no choice but to rely on Han Li.

With that in mind, the woman immediately cautioned, Be on your guard, Senior Han, not only can that Revolving Evil Spirit Light reflect attacks, it can disregard most restrictions and abilities, and its extremely poisonous. If one were to be struck by it, the poison would immediately spread to all parts of the body, and theres no way to get rid of it. Many of the powerful beings of our Naga Race had fallen to this accursed light many years ago.

The woman was quite concerned that Han Li would be adversely affected by the Revolving Evil Spirit Light after it had been devoured by the silver Fire Raven that had flown out from his body.

Poison, eh? A hint of surprise appeared on Han Lis face upon hearing this. However, seeing as his Spirit Engulfing Heavenly Flames were able to devour this so-called Revolving Evil Spirit Light, it wouldve naturally already converted the poison into energy that could be used by him, so there was no way that itd be able to harm him.

Of course, Han Li wasnt going to divulge the Spirit Engulfing Heavenly Flames abilities to the woman, he merely nodded to acknowledge the fact that hed heard her words of caution.

Throughout this entire process, his remained firmly fixed on the two Black Rakshasa beings.

You dare to devour the Revolving Evil Spirit Light?

Han Li was unable to glean the expressions of the two Black Rakshasa Monarchs as they were enshrouded under black light, but the astonishment in their voices was quite apparent.

Hehe, this ability of yours is quite interesting, its just a pity that you havent honed it to a passable degree. Otherwise, even my flames wouldnt have been able to vanquish it so easily. Alright, looks like there really are only two of you here. Ill take care of you two as quickly as possible so I can go back and rest, Han Li chuckled before striding directly toward the two Black Rakshasa beings.

He didnt appear to be moving very quickly, but each and every step he took covered a distance of several tens of feet, and he was soon just over 200 feet away from the two Black Rakshasa Monarchs. At the same time, brilliant golden light erupted from Han Lis body, and a layer of golden scales appeared over his skin. Simultaneously, a golden halo surfaced above his head, and at the center of the halo sat a golden projection with three heads and six arms.

Two of the projections three faces were quite clearly, both of which were identical to Han Lis appearance, while the third one remained rather blurry and indistinct.

Not only were the Fire Yang beings astonished by this new ability that Han Li was unveiling, even the two Black Rakshasa beings within the black light were quite taken aback.

The black light around them immediately began to buzz before tremoring and warping, transforming into a giant black blade around 70 to 80 feet in length in a flash. The blade then hurtled toward Han Li with ferocious might.
