Chapter 1021: Power of the Yang Ring

Just as Han Li was shocked by the strange scene before him, the Diamond Shield transformed from the Diamond Relic hidden deep within his body actually began to swell and shrink in response to the appearance of the giant lotus.

Han Li was startled and hurriedly condensed his magic power, instantly suppressing the strange state of this treasure. Then, he took a deep look at the colorful lotus in the distance, and without a word, flapped the silver wings on his back, disappearing from the spot.

The next moment, he appeared near the Arctic Yuan Light, transforming into a cyan rainbow and escaping into it.

For Han Li, since he had already obtained two treasures, naturally, running away and staying far from this chaotic situation was the wise choice. The jade ruler that appeared suddenly had truly terrifying and astonishing power. Although its divine ability was biased toward trapping enemies and illusions, there was no doubt that its power was not below that of the Three-Flame Fan, and it was highly likely to be a replica of some Heaven-Piercing Spirit Treasure.

Although he hated the owner of this ruler for sneak-attacking him just now, he wouldn't choose to clash head-on with the other party at this time. After all, neither Old Demon Qian nor that Silver-Winged Nightcha were on good terms with him. If he were besieged by these few people, even with his great divine abilities, he would surely die here.

On the golden-silver giant shuttle, the beautiful woman of the Transformation Immortal Sect was pinching spells with both hands to urge the white jade ruler, her face full of strain. Therefore, although she saw Han Li retreat, she had no time to look elsewhere. As long as Han Li didn't take away the most important Transformation Dragon Seal, this woman could only pretend not to see.

At this time, the woman who had previously retreated due to the power of Han Li's fan, seeing her junior sister trap Old Demon Qian and the others, could only look resentfully in the direction Han Li disappeared, while she herself transformed into a startling rainbow with a "whoosh" and plunged into the giant colorful lotus.

Whether it was due to the beautiful woman's manipulation or the woman herself possessing divine abilities that were not afraid of the colorful lotus, she was completely unaffected by the treasure's power within the giant lotus, easily grabbing the Transformation Dragon Seal into her hand.

But as the woman rolled her long sleeves, taking the small purple sword into her hand as well, seven-colored Buddha light flashed, and the lotus flowers covering everyone collapsed inch by inch. Old Demon Qian and the two monsters, who had been suppressed, immediately broke free. After stabilizing their figures, six ferocious gazes stared simultaneously at the woman.

It was precisely because the young woman finally couldn't support the magic power, causing the power of the "Four-Image Ruler" to retract.

The woman's face changed!

Han Li had just plunged into the Arctic Yuan Light not long ago when he bumped head-on into the ugly woman transformed from the Black Rock Tortoise.

This monster was currently covered in a strange, iron-cyan battle armor. Those silver light threads that were originally indestructible hit it and actually paused slightly before being bounced away, allowing it to remain safe and sound within the Arctic Yuan Light. But strangely, the ugly woman wearing this armor was currently only walking forward step by step, seemingly unable to use escape techniques.

This was no wonder that the Silver-Winged Nightcha and the Lion-Bird Beast had shaken it off and gone ahead.

As soon as Han Li appeared in front of this monster, the ugly woman naturally saw him at a glance. After being stunned, it immediately revealed a look of vigilance. A stick-like magic treasure appeared in front of it, and a pair of eyeballs swept over Han Li incessantly.

Han Li's expression remained as usual, and his escape light flashed, heading to one side.

He had no grievances with this monster, and he had no thoughts of eliminating demons in his heart. Moreover, this monster was quite restricted in the Arctic Yuan Light, so he estimated it wouldn't take the initiative to attack either.

But this time, Han Li miscalculated.

Just as he was about to sweep past the ugly woman, the ugly woman's expression suddenly moved. It turned its head abruptly, its face full of horror, staring fixedly at Han Li.

This startled Han Li. His escape light paused subconsciously, and one hand immediately gripped an object. He stared at this monster with suspicion.

"You took that thing, hand it over to me!" the ugly woman suddenly let out a piercing shriek. Immediately, she grabbed the black staff in front of her and swung it forcefully at Han Li. The staff-shaped treasure instantly grew several zhang long, and with a swing, countless blurry black staff shadows manifested like a small mountain, pressing down on Han Li's head and face.

This ugly woman's face had already changed into a look of madness!

The mountain-like stick shadows made Han Li's heart tighten. He was completely confused by the ugly woman's expression and what she said, but he didn't show any fear. Immediately, he raised one hand, and a pitch-black ring floated out, actually heading directly toward the stick shadows above his head.

The ugly woman in the distance saw this and was overjoyed.

The stick in her hand was refined from Five-Metal Essence collected from underground while she was trapped, and after tens of thousands of years of constant cultivation, it had long since become an extraordinary treasure. These phantom stick shadows looked inconspicuous, but each stick had the strength of a thousand catties. She absolutely had the confidence that the inconspicuous ring would be smashed into powder upon contact.

Thinking this, the ferocity in the monster's heart rose. Immediately, regardless of the cost, it stimulated its potential, injecting a few more points of spiritual power into the stick, making the stick shadows expand by another small half, preparing to kill Han Li here in one go, so as to resolve future troubles!

The ugly woman's ferocious appearance fell into his eyes, and Han Li immediately guessed a few points of the other party's plan. Although he didn't know why the other party was so desperate upon their first meeting, he also felt a surge of killing intent.

Immediately, with an expressionless face, he pointed at the pitch-black ring.

The ring emitted a humming sound the moment before it touched the stick shadows, and then an incredible scene appeared.

The nearby silver light threads heard this humming sound and all trembled, shooting toward it. The speed at which the Arctic Yuan Light gathered was so fast that in an instant, it pierced through all the stick shadows. The originally astonishing stick shadows disappeared into holes and collapsed into nothingness in the blink of an eye.

"You can control the Arctic Yuan Light!" The ugly woman let out a piercing scream, full of shock.

The Two-Yi Rings were divided into Yin and Yang rings. The Yin ring could protect one from the Yuan Light, while the Yang ring in hand could control the Yuan Light to attack the enemy. This pitch-black ring was precisely that Yang ring.

Han Li snorted coldly!

If it were outside the Arctic Yuan Light, he would naturally be extremely wary of this monster equivalent to a late-stage Core Formation cultivator, and there would be almost no possibility of killing the other party. But now that the other party was trapped in the Arctic Yuan Light, and he had the Two-Yi Rings, this was naturally a different matter.

Since the other party was seeking death on their own, he didn't mind spending a little more effort to solve the other party. Although he couldn't see what the other party's true form was, the body and essence of a monster of this rank were absolutely rare top-tier materials.

Thinking this in his heart, Han Li had no intention of explaining anything to this monster. He raised his hand and cast several spells at the ring.

The ring circled once in the air, and the humming sound became even louder. Under the mysterious black light, the silver light threads within a range of several dozen zhang were all under the control of this ring. With a movement of Han Li's divine sense, the Arctic Yuan Light all around immediately set off a silver wave, rolling toward the ugly woman in the middle, wave after wave.

The ugly woman let out a scream. Ignoring the magic treasure she was using to deal with Han Li, she hurriedly spat out a ball of black-red essence blood. After pinching a spell with both hands, the essence blood transformed into a ball of blood mist, instantly wrapping the battle armor on her body.

Immediately, this battle armor changed from cyan to blood-red.

Just at this moment, the astonishing silver wave of Arctic Yuan Light had already arrived, rolling the ugly woman into it.

The strange cyan-red light emitted by the battle armor on the ugly woman's body desperately resisted the erosion of the silver threads, emitting a harsh sound like metal friction.

Although the ugly woman had already used a secret technique, she had originally relied on this armor to barely resist the Arctic Yuan Light. Now, the number of silver threads facing her was several times more than before. In almost the blink of an eye, the surface of the battle armor was covered with countless small pits that it couldn't bear.

The ugly woman's face was extremely ugly. Suddenly, she let out a sharp cry, rubbed her hands together, and pressed them onto the battle armor. Layers of grayish-white strange light rippled out, and a layer of rock-like things appeared on the battle armor, forming another layer of protection outside, which finally resisted the silver light threads slightly, slowing down the erosion of the Arctic Yuan Light on the battle armor.

These grayish-white strange objects were also destroyed by the silver threads layer by layer, requiring the ugly woman to constantly cast spells to fill them in regardless of the cost of her true essence. Anyone could see that being destroyed was just a matter of time.

But just for this bit of time, Han Li, whose killing intent had risen, would not give this monster any chance. Immediately, he cast several more spells at the Yang ring with both hands, making the ring spin in the air, and the Arctic Yuan Light further away immediately responded with blinding silver light. Looking around, it was like waves rising and falling, the momentum truly astonishing.

The ugly woman saw this scene, and her face became the same grayish-white as the strange objects on the battle armor. The Arctic Yuan Light in the distance, under Han Li's urging, rolled over like a tidal wave. Instantly, the battle armor on the ugly woman could no longer support it, and the strange objects appearing on it couldn't even appear in time before being destroyed by the silver light threads. The battle armor below began to show cracks inch by inch, and it was clear that collapse was just a matter of moments.

The ugly woman finally revealed a look of fear, her eyeballs spinning rapidly, her eyes full of panic.

"Fellow Daoist, stop, please spare my life, I am willing to serve you as my master and be your spirit beast!"

When a corner of the battle armor collapsed, dozens of silver threads pierced through, turning one of the ugly woman's arms into blood mist. In despair, the ugly woman could no longer care about anything else and shouted loudly.

For this Black Rock Tortoise monster that had lived for unknown tens of thousands of years, how could it be willing to really die here?

"Be my spirit beast!" Hearing this, Han Li's expression moved, and he temporarily slowed down the attack of the Arctic Yuan Light controlled by the Yang ring.

"You take me for a three-year-old child? The Spirit-Restricting Technique has no great effect on a monster of your cultivation level. How can you make me trust you, and how can you be my spirit beast?" Han Li looked at the ugly woman surrounded by countless silver threads and said calmly.

If this monster couldn't immediately say something, he would immediately urge the Arctic Yuan Light to destroy the other party without any hesitation.

He wouldn't give the other party any time to delay.

"There is no need for me to explain anything in detail. Fellow Daoist, did you get a wooden plaque in the Mount Kunwu Hall? Just take it out and look at it carefully. That is the life-bound soul plaque that was restricted before I achieved the Great Dao." The ugly woman also saw that Han Li's killing intent had not yet faded, so she said miserably, not daring to hesitate at all.
