Chapter 1501
"We indeed haven't mistaken the person. WwW. feiazw. CoM website, Han brother, listen carefully!" Upon hearing Han Li's answer, Yan Li's face lit up with joy, and she transmitted her words with slight lip movement.
Han Li listened attentively, a thoughtful expression flashing across his face.
As for Yuan Yao, she stood silently to the side, her gaze sweeping over Han Li's face, her eyes unfocused and shifting.
"This method is indeed feasible. However, probably only the two of you fellow cultivators working together can accomplish this in the Nether River region." After listening to the transmission, Han Li let out a long breath.
"What Brother Han said is correct. The yin energy in the Nether River region can only resonate with the pure yin energy within my and my junior sister's bodies. Of course, the Ghost Hag could also achieve this. But she naturally wouldn't go to dispel the mark she herself placed."
"Alright, but I don't know how the two fellow cultivators would like me to assist you." Han Li nodded and asked.
"Making the Ghost Hag completely abandon her thoughts about my sisters is likely impossible. However, delaying her from acting against us is still possible. As long as we delay until entering the Nether River region, we three will all have a chance to escape their control." Yuan Yao said slowly.
Han Li's brow twitched slightly, showing no reaction. He knew the two women would elaborate further.
Indeed, Yan Li immediately continued:
"The Ghost Hag and her associates now greatly wish to assist Fellow Daoist. We two only need to reveal that Brother Han is our old friend from the past, with deep ties. And Brother Han should also express admiration for Chen Chen Shimei Yuan in front of the Ghost Hag. That way, even if she has suspicions, she will temporarily refrain from harming my sisters."
"Admiration for Chen Chen Shimei Yuan!" Han Li was startled, his gaze shifting downward to fall upon Yuan Yao's flawless face.
Even though Yuan Yao had cultivated for many years, hearing Yan Li's words, a blush appeared on her face, making her appear radiantly beautiful and exceptionally charming.
"If it's merely a matter of words, Han Li naturally can comply. However, what agreement did the Ghost Hag and Mu Qing reach? Whether this approach is truly useful remains debatable." Han Li said warningly.
"Such a matter?" Yan Li's face changed slightly, but she immediately gave a wry smile.
"If that's truly the case, there is indeed some risk. However, aside from this plan, we two truly have no other good strategy; we can only leave it to fate and see how much the Ghost Hag and her associates value Brother Han." Yuan Yao's face changed slightly, and she gave a wry smile.
"In that case, Fellow Daoist Han, if you confirm our words, you might as well speak more emphatically. Let the Ghost Hag believe Brother Han is deeply infatuated with Chen Chen Shimei Yuan. Then she should be more inclined to show concern and likely dare not truly harm us. Additionally, our origins are somewhat known to the Ghost Hag. Fellow Daoist Han pretending to be a Flying Spirit person—this secret probably cannot be kept."
"Pretending to be a Flying Spirit person was originally just a passing fancy. Whether the Ghost Hag knows or not, it won't affect me greatly. What they care about is not Han Li's Flying Spirit identity, but the ability to command the Divine Thunder of Evil Repulsion." Han Li shook his head indifferently.
"Since Brother Han said so, we two are completely relieved. Let's not delay—when the Ghost Hag appears, we will act according to the plan. Fellow Daoist, you just need to adapt and cooperate. As long as it doesn't involve our true plan or even some details in the human realm, Fellow Daoist may directly reveal them to the Ghost Hag. After all, truth mixed with falsehood, falsehood with truth, is what makes her believe us more."
"Good, acceptable. Han Li will certainly do his best to cooperate with the two fellow cultivators." Han Li lowered his head, thought it over, felt there was indeed no major problem, and then solemnly affirmed with a composed expression.
Upon hearing this, Yuan Yao and Yan Li felt a great relief in their hearts, and their gazes toward Han Li unconsciously became somewhat more affectionate.
Immediately, the three discussed some further details, after which the two women finally bade farewell and departed.
Even though the Ghost Hag was in seclusion, the two women dared not be the slightest bit careless and needed to rush back immediately to the deeper layers of the Earth Abyss.
After seeing the two women transform into yin wind and vanish without a trace at the horizon in an instant, Han Li also suddenly flicked his sleeve.
After his body's spiritual light flickered, he transformed into a giant peacock about ten zhang in length, its plumage extraordinarily gorgeous.
With a flap of its wings, rosy light shone in myriad rays, and even the nearby space instantly began to hum softly.
The five-colored light swirled, the peacock's form blurred, and it instantly turned into rolling light clouds flying swiftly, straight toward the center of the mountain range.
Soon after, Han Li's figure appeared in the cave dwelling, and he entered the secret chamber, closing the secret chamber door once again……
Two months later, a mass of black yin wind flew straight from the horizon toward Han Li's cave dwelling, then ruthlessly descended and vanished without a trace, as if it had directly sunk into the mountain's interior.
Some of the restrictions Han Li had set up seemed to have no effect whatsoever on it.
After a full hour had passed, Han Li's cave dwelling door opened, the black yin wind flew out again, and shot toward the distant sky, disappearing without a trace.
At the same time, the cave dwelling door then slowly closed.
Time flew by, and after the mountain range was covered in pure white snow twice, two years passed in the blink of an eye.
……
The Earth Abyss is divided into seven layers, and the seventh layer is also where the dark energy is most condensed and concentrated.
Some of the Earth Abyss monsters with undeveloped spiritual intelligence are powerful, to the extent that even the four demon kings are somewhat wary of them.
Therefore, even the white-haired beauty who loves yin energy the most would not build her ice palace in this layer, but instead constructed it on the sixth layer of the Earth Abyss.
However, on this day, in the seventh layer of the Earth Abyss, in an unusually barren gray desert, countless demonic shadows appeared densely packed, numbering in the tens of thousands.
Most of them are ordinary low-level Earth Abyss monsters, while some others have begun to act strangely.
A portion are shrouded in vast black yin wind, within which countless ghostly shadows flicker faintly, and the sound of ghostly wails and wolf howls emanates from the wind, causing other monsters to keep their distance, not daring to approach in the slightest.
And directly above this black yin wind, the white-haired beauty hovers there, with another eight black shadows behind her.
Each is several zhang tall, wearing a set of unusually ferocious battle armor, some holding weapons, others bare-handed. Looking at their faces, however, they are blurred, making it impossible to discern any detail.
And at a point farther out from the eight black shadows, two beautiful women float similarly in midair.
They are precisely Yuan Yao and Yan Li.
Not far from the vast black wind, there are various puppets standing motionless, each of different heights.
Most of them are earth and stone puppets, about a zhang tall, their bodies flashing with grayish-white or brownish strange light, but their crafting is obviously crude and abnormal. A few are black-green wooden puppets and metal puppets emitting black light all over.
These puppets, whether in the materials used or the surface-printed sigils, are obviously much more refined.
However, among these puppets, the most noticeable is naturally the one located at the center of all puppets, a puppet over thirty zhang tall with six eyes, of purple-red color.
It is precisely the Earth Blood Old Monster, beneath the Blood Flame Palace, refining a puppet resembling a mountain in size, made of purple blood.
However, this puppet's current form has been reduced by dozens of times; although still unusually tall, it is no longer as shocking as it initially was.
On the left and right shoulders of this purple blood puppet, two blood-robed men stand facing the wind, both with their hands clasped behind their backs.
And in front of the puppet and the demonic monsters, additionally, several people stand at an extremely high position.
One wears a black cloak that covers the entire body, wind and rain cannot penetrate, yet he is the most mysterious of the four demon kings, Li Zu. It is shocking that, above the head of Li Zu, a huge eyeball about a zhang in size floats, flickering with eerie gray light.
Not far from Li Zu, however, a huge golden flower floats in midair.
Mu Qing stands on the flower, raising her head to gaze into the sky.
Beside her stands a golden-furred azure ape, carrying double swords on its back, its eyes flashing with cold light.
Below them are over a hundred high-level monsters that have already transformed into semi-demonic forms, each with solemn expressions.
And beside the golden ape, a youth in a green robe stands with arms crossed, face expressionless, uttering not a word.
It is precisely Han Li, who has cultivated alone for years and was forcibly summoned by the demon kings.
At this moment, his gaze occasionally sweeps over the puppets and demonic monsters around him, his face showing no abnormality, but his heart secretly astonished beyond measure.
Such a large number of low-level monsters—here, it seems half of the strength controlled by the four demon kings in the Earth Abyss has been gathered.
Even if these monsters did not speak, the ghost soldiers in the black wind and the tens of thousands of puppets were clearly two even more powerful forces.
These things must have been gathered by these demon kings working together for hundreds of years to achieve such an astonishing number.
They spared no effort or thought in this, clearly determined to obtain the Nether River lands at all costs. It is unknown what exactly lies within the Nether River lands that would make them stake everything on this.
Han Li's heart surged with uncertainty, as the six-legged body ahead moved, and he suddenly spoke coldly from his mouth:
"Wood Fairy, the time is nearly upon us. Quickly offer the blood sacrifice and perform the final blood offering."
Mu Qing heard these words, nodded slightly, and beckoned with one hand downward.
Instantly, more than a dozen figures flew out from the high-level demons below. Each was bare-handed, but each wore a blood-red leather pouch at the waist.
These few said nothing, and in the blink of an eye they flew into the high sky, then simultaneously grabbed the leather pouches at their waists and violently shook the mouths of the pouches toward the same spot.
With a series of "pu pu" sounds, a flash of blood light appeared, and more than a dozen streams of fresh red liquid shot out from the pouches like blood rivers.
Instantly, a strong scent of blood spread in all directions, filling the entire sky.
As these blood rivers converged in midair, they seemed to come alive, condensing together into a blood-red sphere thirty to forty zhang in diameter.
At this moment, Mu Qing stepped on the golden flower beneath her feet, and a black light flashed on the flower, after which her figure instantly vanished.
The next moment, black light flickered before the enormous blood sphere, and Mu Qing's figure reappeared.
She wore a solemn expression, raised one hand, and instantly a black small bottle appeared in her palm, then she shook it and it flew up into the air, arriving directly above the blood sphere.
Mu Qing activated her hand seal, and the black bottle spun around, after which the bottle cap vanished without a trace.
From the bottle's mouth dripped several fist-sized black-red objects, which flashed by and then vanished into the blood sphere without a trace.
