Chapter 1489

Back then, he unintentionally catalyzed the growth of the Golden Thunder Bamboo and refined seventy-two Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords, thereby being able to borrow the power of the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder within the swords to fight enemies. But he never thought that this thunder had such a great background, and that there were other special methods to drive it.

If it were true as these Earth Abyss demon creatures said, that the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder was one of the Five Elements True Thunders of the spirit world, known as the "Supreme Wood Divine Thunder," and its power could be increased by more than ten times, then its power would be unimaginably great, and it could immediately become one of his trump cards.

However, while the matter of the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder was a good thing, the risk of having to go to the Underworld River Land, and the fact that these Demon Kings were refining ghost soldiers and puppets on such a large scale, could be imagined. If he were not careful, he might very well fall into it.

Fortunately, judging from the other party's tone, there were still six or seven years of preparation, so he could still carefully consider and see if he could think of any way to avoid this strange danger.

It was not a small fate to be able to meet Yuan Yao again in this place.

Yuan Yao's willingness to destroy her own Golden Core back then just to let Yan Li be reborn was naturally worthy of admiration. But after so many years, whether the other party was still so sentimental and righteous was hard to say.

After all, the human heart is the most changeable.

But judging from Yuan Yao's intention, she did not want to expose that she knew him.

This made him secretly relieved.

Although pretending to be from the Flying Spirit race was not something that must be hidden, Han Li still did not want his true origins to be known by these Earth Abyss Demon Kings.

Han Li pondered silently in his heart.

Speaking of Yuan Yao, he recalled in detail the circumstances of his several meetings with this woman in his mind.

When he recalled seeing this woman bathing in the spirit spring in the secret room of the Void Heaven Palace, her flawless body flashed through his mind, causing a ripple in Han Li's heart.

But immediately, Nangong Wan's figure emerged in the bottom of his heart, and then became clear, filling Han Li's entire mind.

So many years have passed; if everything went smoothly, she should have advanced to Spirit Transformation in the mortal world too.

He didn't know when he would be able to reunite with his beloved wife in the spirit world.

Nangong Wan's voice and appearance rolled in Han Li's mind, and the scene of him and his beloved wife flying together in Tiannan appeared one after another.

A smile appeared on Han Li's face, and he was immersed in warm memories.

After a long while, when Nangong Wan's voice and appearance gradually disappeared, another beautiful and peerless face appeared in Han Li's mind, also placing him in past memories...

I don't know how much time passed, but after a long sigh, Han Li finally woke up, his face replaced by a bitter smile.

He didn't expect that being stimulated by Yuan Yao's past would cause him to lose his composure for such a long time. Fortunately, there was no one with malicious intent peeking nearby, otherwise, it would have been dangerous.

However, since he could not leave the Earth Abyss for the time being, he would always have a chance to meet Yuan Yao again, so there was no need to rush to contact her.

Han Li pondered slowly in his heart, and a thoughtful look appeared on his face again...

Three days later, standing in front of a small mountain, looking at the strange mountain wall where even the stones were crystal clear and emerald green, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"This is the Wood Essence Cave I use for closed-door cultivation; the concentration of wood spiritual energy here is rare even in the entire spirit world. Those who cultivate wood-attribute techniques can have several times the cultivation effect here," Mu Qing said proudly from the side.

When Han Li came to see Mu Qing three days later as ordered, this woman took him over several large mountains and entered a mist full of barriers, finally stopping in this strange place.

This place was already quite far from his original residence; for this woman to set her cultivation place here was indeed beyond ordinary people's expectations.

However, the green stone wall in front of him was as smooth as a mirror, with no caves at all.

Han Li swept his spiritual sense over it several times and found nothing unusual, revealing a strange look.

Mu Qing walked a few steps to the mountain wall and brushed it lightly with one hand.

After a flash of green light on the stone wall, it split open silently, revealing an emerald green passage leading straight inside.

The entrance to the passage was sealed by a layer of green murky light screen, and at the same time, around the entrance, some strange runes appeared on the nearby stone wall, looking mysterious.

Han Li was full of astonishment.

With such a passage behind the stone wall, why didn't his powerful spiritual sense discover it?

It seems these Earth Abyss Demon Kings really have some unimaginable divine abilities; he really needs to be more careful.

Han Li's heart tightened!

Mu Qing flickered and walked into the passage first; the green light screen had no effect on her at all.

Han Li hesitated for a moment and naturally followed behind her.

As a result, I don't know what Mu Qing did beforehand, but the light screen did not block him at all.

Most of the time, shortly after the two entered the light screen, the entire stone wall flashed with light, and the entrance to the passage disappeared.

Not only that, but shortly after, the entire emerald green stone wall also dimmed and became ordinary.

On the other side, Han Li followed Mu Qing and walked in the passage for a good while before his eyes suddenly brightened, and he appeared in a small hall.

The hall was empty, and except for seven or eight corridors leading to other places, there was nothing else.

But Han Li, who was in this place, could sense the thick spiritual energy emitted from the ground and the four walls, feeling both happy and worried.

What he was happy about was that the wood spiritual energy here was so rich that mastering the method of driving the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder within two years did not seem impossible. What he was worried about was that this Mu Qing was willing to let him use such a spiritual place, showing that she was determined to get him. Trying to get rid of this Demon King's control in the future would definitely not be an easy task.

"Follow me, I'll arrange a place for you to stay. For the next two years, you will spend your time here and not step out of the Wood Essence Cave. I have already set up an extremely powerful barrier around here; without me opening it personally, you won't be able to walk out of here," Mu Qing said lightly, her words revealing confidence.

Han Li moved the corners of his mouth, said nothing, and followed the woman silently into another passage.

Passing through a large garden full of strange flowers and plants, Han Li was brought to a pale yellow gate made of unknown metal.

Mu Qing stopped her steps.

"This is a secret room I usually use for meditation; I'll lend it to you for temporary residence and cultivation. Starting tomorrow, every seven days, I will guide you once in the Dao of driving thunder. At noon seven days later, come to the hall to find me. Alright, go in yourself. I'm going to another secret room. Except for the few places where I have set up barriers, you can enter and exit other places as you please," Mu Qing was surprisingly generous.

"Thank you, Senior, for your kindness!" Han Li thanked her repeatedly.

But as soon as Mu Qing finished speaking, she glanced at Han Li lightly and turned to leave.

Watching the woman turn a corner on the small path and disappear completely, Han Li sighed, pushed open the yellow metal gate, and walked into the secret room.

Time flies like an arrow, disappearing in a flash. One year passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, in the mist, strange signs suddenly appeared above the ordinary small mountain!

Countless black clouds gathered in the low sky, and then, amidst the flashing cyan electric light, bursts of thunder sounded from the clouds, as if a terrifying fierce beast was being born in the dark clouds.

Suddenly, on the ground at the top of the small mountain, a black magic array of more than ten feet appeared, and with a flash of black light on the surface, two people appeared from it.

One was wrapped in black mist, slim and graceful, and the other was in a cyan robe, with a young face.

It was Mu Qing and Han Li!

The moment the two appeared, thunder roared in the sky, the dark clouds churned violently, and the cyan electric arcs appearing in the clouds became dense, with an astonishing momentum.

Mu Qing looked up at the low sky and said calmly:

"I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that your heavenly tribulation would arrive at this time. But you possess the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder, and you have already initially understood the Dao of driving thunder; I imagine you can easily handle this level of thunder tribulation. You can even take the opportunity to verify and temper yourself. It will be of great benefit to your true Evil-Warding Divine Thunder. Take care of yourself." After Mu Qing finished speaking, the light on the magic array under her feet flashed, and she disappeared.

In an instant, only Han Li was left on the top of the mountain.

Seeing this, Han Li could only smile bitterly.

His second small heavenly tribulation in the spirit world would arrive at this moment, which also greatly surprised him.

Fortunately, he had been taking Dust-Extinguishing Pills, and he had already taken seven or eight tenths of them. The heavenly tribulation was no longer the terrifying two-colored thunder tribulation, but an ordinary cyan heavenly thunder.

However, even so, Han Li did not dare to be the slightest bit slack, after all, this was his second thunder tribulation, and he did not dare to underestimate it.

Han Li opened his mouth, and a small cyan tripod was spat out, and at the same time, he reached behind his head with one hand, and pieces of gray misty light flew out, forming a layer of light screen to protect his whole body.

Then he let out a low shout, clenched his fists with both hands, and suddenly, a rumbling sound arose, and countless golden electric arcs shot out from his body, shooting toward the sky.

A moment later, a golden electric net appeared on the outer layer, with electric light flickering and thunderclaps sounding incessantly.

At the same time, the cyan electric arcs in the sky became more and more numerous and brighter, and finally, with an earth-shattering loud noise, countless cyan arcs struck down from the sky, aiming directly at Han Li on the top of the small mountain.

Electric arcs the thickness of a thumb, like small cyan snakes, rushed down like a storm, plunging into the golden electric net on the outermost layer.

A strange light flashed in Han Li's eyes, and he formed a hand seal with one hand; the golden electric net roared with thunder, and pieces of blurry golden runes emerged from the net, spinning and turning, suddenly transforming into golden halos that looked like whirlpools.

A strange scene appeared!

The cyan electric arcs and these halos touched, and with just a flash of electric light, they disappeared into them without a trace.

The whole process was silent, as if swallowed by the golden halos.

In a moment, hundreds or thousands of cyan electric arcs were mostly sucked into the golden halos, while a small portion was bounced away by the golden electric net, emitting rumbling explosions.

The first wave of heavenly thunder fell, and Han Li did not even blink, taking it down easily.

Net
