Chapter 1201

After hearing the earlier words, he finally had some confidence in his heart!

Obviously, Ling Yuling used the Ten-Thousand-Mile Talisman to find him for the purpose of dealing with the master of the Wanfa Gate. As for this Wan Tianming, he had seen him before in the Xu Tian Dian back then.

This person gave him a really bad impression, appearing very scheming. However, the fact that this person could advance to the late Nascent Soul stage also greatly surprised Han Li.

The Twin Saints of Tianxing who fell together with the Liu Dao Ji Sheng and Wan San Gu probably did not anticipate this happening. Otherwise, according to their expectations, the Xing Gong should have already defeated the Nixing Alliance and restored their rule over the 'Luan' Xing Hai, and there would be no need to ask him for help here.

However, Han Li truly did not take this Wan Tianming to heart.

This Wan Sect Master advanced later than him, so how could he be his opponent? Now, with his magic power cultivation further consolidated and his divine sense greatly increased, even if he encountered a Spirit Transformation cultivator, he could barely protect himself.

Thinking this, Han Li's mind raced a few times, and he turned his thoughts to the Yuan Ci Divine Light and the rumored Yuan Ci Mountain.

The cultivation method and oral formula for Yuan Ci Divine Light were not bad; it was said that this method was not some secret manual, and it should have been circulating in the Xing Hai. Even without going through the Xing Gong, he could collect it with more time and cost.

However, Yuan Ci Mountain is a rare object of the human realm, and whether there is a second one in the entire human realm is still a matter of debate.

Although he did not know whether this mountain was essential for cultivating Yuan Ci Divine Light, the high-level cultivators of the 'Luan' Xing Hai all knew that the reason the Twin Saints of Tianxing cultivated this method was because they discovered this rare object. At the very least, this mountain is of great help for cultivating Yuan Ci Divine Light. Otherwise, before the Twin Saints, this method would have already been circulating, yet no one was seen cultivating this extraordinary technique.

Han Li thought this way, nodded slightly to the old man and the burly man, said a few words of thanks lightly, and then his body flashed with spiritual light, transforming into a green rainbow that pierced the sky and departed.

He never asked these two why they were fighting or which faction they belonged to, from beginning to end.

The old man and the burly man respectfully saw Han Li off in place until the green rainbow truly disappeared at the horizon, then they simultaneously let out a sigh of relief, and then glared at each other angrily again.

But after Han Li's interruption, these two also lost the thought of fighting again. After exchanging a few harsh words, they also sullenly left the place.

Meanwhile, Han Li had already been over a hundred li away.

……

On the sea surface tens of thousands of li outside Tianxing City, more than a dozen escape lights shot straight toward Tianxing City.

Among these escape lights, the cultivators were old and young, but their clothing was all identical; at a glance, they were clearly from one sect or belonging to the same force.

Perhaps because they were approaching Tianxing City, the cultivators in the escape lights all revealed relaxed expressions, and some even began to whisper voice transmissions to each other.

At this moment, an anomaly suddenly appeared!

Directly beneath these cultivators, the sea surface emitted a blinding white light, and more than a dozen hazy white light pillars suddenly shot upward from below. After a thunderous explosion, besides the three highest-cultivated Foundation Establishment cultivators who flashed and hastily avoided, the rest were all struck by the light pillars.

Instantly, screams rang out as these people vanished into nothingness in the white light.

As for these three Foundation Establishment cultivators, they naturally spat out their magic treasures in shock and anger, hastily looking downward.

At this moment, no more light pillars shot from below, but seven or eight escape lights shot out from beneath the sea surface. After a brief circling, they surrounded the three people.

"Lackeys of the Nixing Alliance!"

One of the remaining cultivators, an old man with gray-white beard and hair, seemed to recognize someone among them and shouted furiously.

"Hehe, I was wondering who would come so eagerly to assist the Xing Gong— isn't this Lu Xiong of the Bai Shui Sword Sect? Your sect has always claimed neutrality and non-involvement in disputes, so why are you not staying on Changli Island but coming here instead?" One of the escape lights dimmed, revealing a middle-aged man with a sinister appearance, who glanced at the old speaker a few times and coldly said.

"Hmph, you know full well— why bother with these hypocritical words? Our Bai Shui Sword Sect was originally a branch inheriting the lineage of the Xing Gong. Now that the palace faces a great calamity, we naturally come to assist. Cut the nonsense— let's go!" The old man glared fiercely at the sinister middle-aged man a few times, and his final sentence was actually directed at the two other Foundation Establishment cultivators beside him.

Immediately, these three figures flickered and instantly transformed into three escape lights shooting toward a certain direction. Along the way, they suddenly merged into one, forming a red-yellow-white intertwined rainbow several zhang long, with mighty momentum, straight toward the opposing Nixing Alliance cultivators blocking them.

It seems this old man clearly realized that with their three forces, they could not possibly oppose enemies several times their number, so he immediately fled. His decisiveness was extraordinary!

The two Nixing Alliance cultivators blocking this direction saw the three-colored rainbow with mighty momentum, yet showed no panic at all. After exchanging a glance, they both raised their hands.

Vast blue-green light shot from their hands without any warning, just in time to unexpectedly envelop the three-colored startled rainbow, wrapping it inside.

Immediately, these two people muttered incantations, the blue light flashed, and the light revealed its true form—actually a giant blue silk net, which trapped the old man and the two others alive. Despite their sword light and magic treasures striking wildly, they could not break through the net.

"Haha, Lu Xiong, don't bother struggling. This Qian Kun Net is a gift from our sect's elder. With your Foundation Establishment cultivation, you can't possibly overcome it. Moreover, even if you truly escaped, it would be useless. Now, Tianxing City has already been surrounded by our Nixing Alliance to the point of being impenetrable; its fall is only a matter of time. Still, let me send you three fellow cultivators on your way first!"

The sinister middle-aged man laughed loudly, opened his mouth, and immediately spat out a white small sword, preparing to drive it to directly slay the trapped old man and the two others.

"Oh! From your tone, it seems Tianxing City has been surrounded for some time. Could you tell me about it?" A strange male voice suddenly echoed eerily nearby, clearly heard by everyone present.

"Who's sneaking around!" The sinister middle-aged man was greatly startled, hastily looking around in all directions, his face full of vigilance.

The remaining few Nixing Alliance cultivators also hurriedly extended their divine sense, scanning all around, appearing as if facing a great enemy.

But the nearby empty space showed no trace of anyone. After searching in vain, these people could not help but look at each other blankly.

"What are you looking at? Don't you see us right in front of you?" The stranger's voice coldly laughed, then followed with the three Bai Shui Sword Sect cultivators trapped above, a blue light flashed, and a figure appeared out of thin air.

It was actually a blue-robed youth over twenty years old, expressionlessly gazing at them.

"Not good, is it a Nascent Soul cultivator?" The two Nixing Alliance cultivators nearest to the youth, after scanning with their divine sense, immediately turned pale and exclaimed in shock.

Although he could not discern Han Li's exact cultivation level, he was absolutely certain it was a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Upon hearing this, the leading sinister middle-aged man also changed expression, carefully scrutinizing the youth with both eyes, and his face immediately showed an expression of extreme shock. Without another word, he made hand seals with both hands, transforming into a white rainbow, turning and fleeing toward the distance, breaking through the sky. After just a few flashes, his escape light flew tens of zhang away.

This scene not only made Han Li slightly startled, but the remaining few Nixing Alliance cultivators also stared with mouths agape.

One must know that even when facing a Nascent Soul-level cultivator, these many Foundation Establishment cultivators were not without a chance to fight. Moreover, the leading middle-aged man had peak late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation— how could he not even distinguish friend from foe and immediately flee in panic?

"Do you recognize me?"

This youth is naturally Han Li, who after over a month of hurried travel, finally arrived here.

At this moment, his face sank, he raised his hand and casually flicked toward the distance.

With a "puchi" sound, a red line flashed and shot out, accompanied by a loud breaking-space sound!

The red line flashed and then vanished into nothingness, and the white rainbow of the middle-aged man who had already fled tens of zhang away immediately transmitted a miserable scream.

The white light dispersed, and a human-shaped fireball fell directly from the air, sinking into the sea with no further sound.

Han Li then lightly waved his hand again!

With a sharp ringing sound, that red line flashed from the nearby void, reappeared strangely, and sank into the youth's hand, disappearing without a trace.

Han Li then swept his gaze over the others and asked lightly:

"Are you now willing to answer Han Li's questions?"

Although Han Li's voice was not loud, the other Nixing Alliance cultivators present felt a chill run through their bodies upon hearing it.

At this moment, they finally understood why the middle-aged man had fled without even greeting.

The person before them actually possessed inconceivable divine powers— even if they all attacked together, they seemed to have no chance of winning. Most importantly, this person seemed to harbor ill will toward their Nixing Alliance!

But with the example of the middle-aged man's demise before them, these people, even if their legs felt weak, dared not act rashly anymore.

After a moment, one of the men with a hooked nose among the group gave a dry cough and, forcing a smile, asked, "Is there something you wish to ask us, senior?"

"What problem? I already said it once. Do you want me to repeat it a second time?" Han Li's eyes flashed with cold light as he gave the other a cold glance.

The man's heart skipped a beat, his smile growing even more rigid, but he dared not delay and hurriedly replied:

"I understand now. The Star Palace is indeed surrounded by our alliance; otherwise, we would not dare to appear in these waters so close to the Star Palace."

"Oh, it seems your Nixing Alliance has made good calculations, deliberately advancing the attack time by a large margin to catch the Star Palace off guard and also to exterminate those loyal Star Palace cultivators in one sweep." Han Li's mouth curled slightly, revealing a smile that was not quite a smile.

"I am not entirely clear on that, as we are of low cultivation and merely following orders." The man said with an apologetic smile.

"Even if the Nixing Alliance has the upper hand, Tianxing City is so vast that even if tens of thousands of cultivators gathered, it would hardly be possible to completely seal it off." Han Li's eyes flickered several times as he asked in this manner.
