Chapter 1391: Wood Phoenix (II)

Looking at this unusually dim talisman, almost devoid of any spiritual light, Han Li frowned, hesitated for a moment, then flipped his other hand, and another identical talisman appeared.

This purple 'colored' talisman, compared to the first one, had much more radiant spiritual light.

This was precisely the other two Taiyi Huaching Talismans that Han Li had painstakingly refined for this journey into the Barbarian Wilderness Realm.

The previous talisman had already nearly exhausted its power. To be safe, facing possible unknown dangers, Han Li naturally still took another fresh talisman for self-protection.

After storing the damaged talisman, the new talisman flickered, and instantly, amidst the flashing silver 'colored' runes, Han Li's figure vanished into thin air in place.

Immediately, he pinched a seal with his heart, his body moved, and he floated lightly toward the direction indicated by the Leopard Qilin Beast.

I don't know whether this water surface is a vast lake or if we have truly reached some seashore; after flying forward for over two hundred li, there seemed to be no sign of any shore at all.

However, a small, inconspicuous island appeared before his eyes.

This island was about ten or so li in size, with unusually dense vegetation, as if rarely visited by people.

Han Li glanced at this island, then raised his head and looked around, before quietly heading straight for the island's center.

The place the Leopard Qilin Beast mentioned should indeed be this island, no doubt.

At the center of the island was a not-so-large small basin, containing various-sized grayish-white 'colored' giant stones piled there.

And on one of these giant stones, a white-robed girl with a pale 'colored' face sat cross-legged, while before her stood a woman resembling a Wood Tribe person, respectfully standing there.

Upon seeing this scene, Han Li's heart startled, his figure paused mid-hover in midair, and his eyes slightly narrowed as he began to scrutinize the unfamiliar woman.

This woman's skin tone and color were exactly the same as ordinary wood spirits—that same light green 'color'—and she also wore an orange-yellow 'colored' waistband representing rank, resembling a wood spirit of the orange rank comparable to a Void Refinement cultivator. But upon careful observation, Han Li immediately noticed the differences between this woman and ordinary wood spirits.

When facing the white-robed girl, this woman's face actually bore an extremely solemn and reverent expression, utterly different from the wooden expressions of other Wood Tribe members. Furthermore, although he had not released his spiritual sense to carefully probe, this woman's body faintly emitted an extremely powerful fire spirit power, utterly different from the pure wood spirit energy uniformly present in those Wood Tribe members.

This is not a wood spirit!

Han Li's thoughts turned, he made a judgment, then shifted his gaze, falling upon the white-robed girl.

Only then did he notice that, besides her unusually pale face 'color', the white robe on her chest bore a fist-sized bloodstain, as if a single blooming blood 'colored' small flower, strikingly conspicuous.

This woman had actually been injured.

Seeing this scene, Han Li hesitated in his heart, pondering whether to reveal his form and descend.

But just then, the girl below suddenly lifted her chin, and with a charming smile, she looked up into the air.

"Han Brother, since you've come, why not come down and rest for a while?"

Upon hearing these words, Han Li's heart startled greatly, and he immediately became alarmed.

This woman could actually see through his illusionary concealment—how could this be possible?

The Taiyi Huaching Talisman facing a Body Integration cultivator is hard to say, but against a Void Refinement cultivator's presence, it had never before been sensed by anyone. Could this woman be using deceitful words? But seeing her smiling face gazing at me, it was clear she truly knew my exact position.

Unless this woman's spiritual sense is so powerful that it is not inferior to a Body Integration cultivator, only then could this be explained!

Han Li's heart sank with suspicion, but after a brief moment of contemplation, the silver 'colored' runes on his body flickered, and his figure gradually appeared.

Then he again slapped his body with one hand, a purple 'colored' talisman flew out, circled once, and landed in his palm.

"Daoist Ye, who is this fellow Daoist? Could you please introduce him to me?" Han Li said, appearing calm, as his figure slowly descended from midair.

"Let me introduce: this is our two tribes' undercover agent sent to the Wood Tribe, Daoist Ye Chu. Seeing Daoist Han's appearance, you seem to have easily escaped those Wood Tribe members." The white-robed girl said with a light smile, and with considerable interest, she looked up and down at Han Li, seeing his unharmed appearance, she couldn't help but a hint of surprise 'color' flash across her face.

"Ye Chu? Are you fellow Daoist human or demon?" Han Li, however, fixed his gaze on the green-skinned woman, his eyes flashing as he spoke.

"You fellow Daoist truly have sharp eyes. I am of human lineage, but I possess wood-wind spirit blood, so I count as half a demon." The woman gave Han Li a cold glance, spoke coldly, her voice sounding slightly hoarse.

"Wood Phoenix? Eh, fellow Daoist, you have Void Refinement cultivation!" Han Li was momentarily startled upon hearing the name, but after sweeping his spiritual sense over this woman, his face 'color' slightly changed.

"Elder Sister Chu, I come from the Ye family; I already had early Void Refinement cultivation back then. After so many years of hiding in the Wood Tribe, I have now achieved great completion in the Void Refinement stage, and I am only a hair's breadth away from great completion in the Body Integration stage." The girl said, her autumn eyes flowing.

"This is also thanks to the benefits I gained in the Wood Tribe; otherwise, I would not have been able to cultivate to this extent. As for me, I never imagined that this time, the Young Master himself would personally come here." Ye Chu spoke humbly two sentences, facing the girl who stood with hands clasped.

"Now I understand. If it weren't for the senior's support nearby this time, we would probably have been completely wiped out." Facing such a terrifying late Void Refinement existence, Han Li drew a sharp breath of cold air, and his expression naturally became several degrees more respectful.

"However, speaking of which. Earlier, because we were pursued too urgently, I didn't have time to ask in detail. Elder Sister Chu, what exactly happened? Why did we fall into the Wood Tribe's trap? And what about the others?" The girl's smile faded, and suddenly her expression became solemn.

"Besides me in the Wood Tribe, everyone else has perished. Around a hundred years ago, it seems the Wood Tribe obtained some information, knowing that there were spies from our two tribes among them. After a thorough investigation, only I managed to blend in due to the Wood Phoenix blood; the others were successively exposed, forced to flee, but all were killed one by one." The green-skinned woman actually replied in this manner.
