Chapter 1417: Pig Demon and Young Beast

The female cultivator surnamed Xiao had already plunged into the giant light array, and immediately, the buzzing sound of the entire light array grew several times louder, while intense space ripples appeared nearby.

The space covered by the giant light array began to twist and deform, clearly the appearance of the array teleportation about to begin.

The flying swords that had laid out the sword array also restored into seventy-two small swords the moment the Chang Slaves rushed out of the sword array, vanishing into her body in a flash.

But at this moment, due to the space distortion, the green rainbow transformed by Han Li slowed down by a fold.

Han Li's expression changed, and before he could spread the newly refined Mortal Wind Thunder Wings behind his back, the Nightshade King's attack had already arrived before his eyes.

Among them, the force of one punch from afar carried a roaring sound, transforming into a giant green fist shadow that struck directly beneath the light array, and Han Li happened to be covered by its power.

Han Li knew that if he did not deal with this strike first, he would absolutely not be able to leave. Immediately, he took a deep breath, raised both hands simultaneously, and ten or so gold and silver light balls shot out. Only then did he flap the wings behind his back, vanishing in place, and the next moment, he appeared a fraction of an inch from the center of the light array. Swaying his figure, he plunged into it without hesitation.

At this moment, another blood light flashed upward and slashed fiercely at a corner of the giant light array.

At the same time, those gold and silver light balls struck the fist shadow, and both exploded simultaneously.

One shone with blood light, and as it slashed down, it caused such a giant light array to sway.

The other erupted with a thunderous sound, suddenly revealing a giant gold and silver thunder cloud, spreading over a hundred zhang, raising a hurricane that soared into the sky.

In the blink of an eye, the hurricane submerged everything into it.

Space ripples appeared at the edge of the thunder cloud, and the two Nightshade Kings reappeared. Facing the giant power equivalent to the joint strike of ten or so Void Refinement cultivators, even with their divine abilities, they had to avoid it for a while, which put their original plan of teleporting over directly to grab Han Li and the woman from the light array on hold.

Under the slight obstruction of the thunder cloud, the light array in the sky flashed brightly amidst the swaying, and then after flashing wildly a few times, the entire light array shattered inch by inch and dissipated.

The two Nightshade Kings joined forces and forcibly dispersed the giant power of the gold and silver thunder cloud in a short while, then flashed and appeared below where the center of the light array had originally been.

There, only a white magic disk covered in cracks floated, devoid of any spiritual energy.

One Nightshade King grabbed this magic disk into its hand, and examined it for a long while with a gloomy expression, then threw it to the other Nightshade King without a word.

"There is a wisp of True Spirit Qi inside. It seems we still underestimated these two human cultivators, who surprisingly have such a divine ability for long-distance teleportation out of thin air." The latter Nightshade King looked at the magic disk and sighed.

"This is something even I did not expect. Fortunately, my last strike also shook their teleportation array. Whether they can truly be teleported away safely is another matter. Perhaps they fell into some space crack on the way and have vanished from this world," the Nightshade named Undying King sneered.

"We can only think so. It's just that our Chang Slaves don't know where they were teleported to, and finding them back will be quite troublesome." Turning Wheel King frowned, and only then nodded after a long while.

"It's nothing; our Chang Slaves are not creatures without intelligence. As long as they aren't teleported to another continent, they will always find a way to find us. It's just that the alliance matter we discussed earlier must be dealt with immediately, otherwise..."

The two Nightshade Kings, although greatly surprised that Han Li and the woman had escaped from their hands, soon threw it to the back of their minds and immediately began discussing the major events that were of utmost importance to them.

The Nightshade race army, tens of thousands of miles away, was still advancing in a mighty and majestic manner toward the direction of the human race's Abyss City...

Han Li only felt a splitting headache and dizziness in his eyes. With his current strong physical body, having such an intense reaction after teleportation meant that the teleportation, which seemed to be only an instant, was absolutely an ultra-long-distance teleportation.

After closing his eyes for a good while, Han Li finally opened them slowly and swept his gaze around.

This seemed to be a pile of scattered stones, with round stones of various sizes everywhere on the ground, gray and white in color.

Not far away, there were patches of gray mist, making it impossible to see too far.

His mind was still buzzing, and he did not know if there was some restriction here, or if he had not yet recovered from that long-distance teleportation, but his spiritual sense was temporarily unable to leave his body.

With a slight frown, Han Li turned his head around while his eyes flashed with blue light.

Han Li suddenly stirred, performed incantation gestures with both hands, transformed into a green rainbow, and flew into the sky, plunging into the mist.

A cup of tea's time later, Han Li appeared beside a small stream several zhang wide, his hands behind his back, staring at the crystal-clear stream water beneath his feet, his eyes narrowing slightly.

He grabbed downward with one hand, and immediately a small ball of stream water was lifted out of thin air, transforming into a water ball the size of a fist, floating lightly in his palm.

Han Li examined it intently for a while, and seeing that there was no problem with the stream water, he opened his mouth, and the water ball immediately transformed into a water line and was sucked into his mouth.

It was exceptionally sweet.

Han Li nodded with satisfaction and was about to take some more stream water when suddenly his eyebrows twitched, and his other hand suddenly clenched into a fist and struck the void behind him.

An invisible giant force shot out.

With a loud "boom," the mist behind him rolled, and the giant force seemed to have struck something, not only emitting several footsteps of retreating and falling, but also several grunting sounds.

Han Li's figure blurred slightly, and he turned his body around like a ghost, shaking his sleeve toward the mist behind him.

He did not know what incantation he had secretly performed, but a strong wind surged from his sleeve, and the gray mist within several tens of zhang ahead was blown away, revealing a monster about a zhang tall.

Even though Han Li was well-informed, he was stunned upon seeing the appearance of this monster.

The monster in front of him looked exceptionally strange: small eyes, long mouth, pig head and human body, wearing a green turtle shell on its upper body, firmly stuck to its body.

At this moment, the monster was lying on the ground with its four limbs facing the sky, clearly knocked down by Han Li's giant force just now, and was struggling to get up while emitting grunting sounds.

But because the turtle shell on its back was too protruding and its four limbs were half as short as a normal person's, it could not turn over immediately, looking like a giant turtle unable to get up.

"Turtle Pig Demon"

A flash of inspiration hit Han Li, and such a strange name appeared in his mind, and he could not help but laugh lightly.

The aura on this pig demon was not strong, only equivalent to the cultivation base of a human Qi Refining stage cultivator.

With such a weak aura, Han Li naturally felt relieved, but he was also somewhat strange as to how this pig demon could withstand his giant force strike just now.

His gaze flashed and landed on the turtle shell on the pig demon's body; there was a fist print an inch deep on the abdomen of this turtle shell.

A look of surprise flashed across Han Li's face, and he grabbed toward it in the void.

Spiritual light shone brightly, and a giant blue hand about a zhang in size appeared above the pig demon, grabbed the edge of the turtle shell, and lifted the entire pig demon up.

Before Han Li could examine the turtle shell carefully, the Turtle Pig Demon suddenly shrank flexibly, fell out of the turtle shell, transformed into a brown wild boar, and rushed into the mist on the side, vanishing without a trace.

In the blink of an eye, only an empty turtle shell remained in the giant blue hand, which was quite the essence of shedding the shell to escape.

Han Li's eyes twitched, and he was speechless.

Judging by the agility of the pig demon when it ran away, the clumsy act of lying on the ground just now was actually a trick to confuse the enemy.

This Turtle Pig Demon looked silly but was exceptionally cunning, and its intelligence was probably not low.

Han Li naturally would not care much about a low-tier existence at the Qi Refining stage, and was too lazy to chase after this thing, just taking the turtle shell in front of him and examining it carefully, his face gradually showing a look of surprise.

"It's just a turtle shell from a giant turtle several hundred years old, yet it could withstand my punch. What kind of spirit turtle shell is this to have such magic?" Han Li muttered to himself, and after hesitating for a moment, he still put the turtle shell into his storage bracelet.

Afterward, Han Li did not go anywhere else, but sat cross-legged by the stream, closing his eyes to rest.

It was silent by the stream, but the mist nearby began to thin gradually. I don't know how much time passed, but when the mist had dissipated, a group of deer-like and horse-like beasts gathered by the stream, stretching their tongues to drink water, and several young beasts only about a foot long were stumbling and playing with each other by the stream.

Because Han Li had restrained his aura, he was like a stubborn stone, not attracting the attention of these beasts at all. One young beast even bumped into Han Li.

This young beast seemed to have sensed something, turned its body, and looked at Han Li with two beautiful large light-blue eyes. Then, it curiously circled Han Li a few times, and simply moved its furry head to Han Li's face to sniff a few times, unable to help but lick him with its pink tongue.

Suddenly, Han Li opened his eyes without the slightest warning. This little beast was startled, and immediately jumped back, wanting to escape. But at this moment, green light flashed, and a pill carrying a medicinal fragrance shot out from Han Li's sleeve, accurately shooting into the little beast's mouth, and immediately transformed into a mouthful of sweet liquid that flowed into the little beast's mouth.

At the same time, Han Li's faint voice rang in the little beast's ears.

"Since you and I have some fate, I will give you this Opening Spirit Pill. But whether you can truly open your intelligence in the future depends on your own creation."

This voice scared the little beast into emitting a cry similar to a sheep, and immediately the other adult beasts nearby discovered Han Li's existence, and immediately rushed up, protecting the few young beasts in the middle, and then pointed their sharp horns at the direction where Han Li was, vigilantly.

Han Li still did not move in place, just staring calmly at the little beast for a few more glances, then slowly closed his eyes again and ignored the beast herd.
