Chapter 1506: Encountering a Fierce Battle

~11 min read 2,166 words

Mu Qing, standing on the golden flower, turned her head at almost the same time, a trace of strangeness flashing on her face as well.

The foul stench was thick, and from the far distance on one side of the bone wasteland, a rolling *huala* sound suddenly came, and then a rolling gray-white Yin Qi surged over.

This gray Qi could not be seen to have an edge, but wherever the gray Qi passed, the white bones on the ground stood up one after another, forming strange-looking skeletons.

These skeletons were of different sizes, their red eyes shining brightly, looking toward the Earth Abyss demonic creatures led by Liu Zu.

And the gray Qi was about to reach the Earth Abyss team nearby in the blink of an eye.

The low-tier demonic creatures of the Earth Abyss were all in a stir.

Han Li's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but glance at Mu Qing in front of him.

This woman's expression was normal, without a trace of strangeness, as if she had expected this long ago.

Just as Han Li was wondering, a low shout suddenly came from the very back of the team. Two blood rainbows shot out from the puppets, heading toward the incoming gray Qi.

After two "Bang" sounds, the blood rainbows transformed into two bloody, fishy winds in mid-air, colliding with the gray Qi.

Continuous earth-shattering roars erupted between the blood wind and the gray Qi, transforming into two giant wind pillars that shot into the sky.

Amidst the intertwining of the gray Qi and blood wind, wind and thunder sounds erupted, sweeping the large area of skeletons that had just come to life nearby into it, smashing them into powder one after another.

However, the skeleton army in other directions, wrapped in gray Qi, actually soared into the air one after another, rushing toward the Earth Abyss team at low altitude.

For a time, most of the sky was densely covered by this kind of skeleton.

The number was countless.

Han Li was somewhat horrified!

Just then, the white-haired beautiful woman at the very front let out a strange laugh, and her figure spun, and a giant ghost shadow with disheveled hair emerged from behind her, and in the blink of an eye, it swelled to several hundred *zhang* in size.

Suddenly, the ghost shadow opened its mouth wide, and a burst of green Qi whistled out, sweeping a large area of skeletons in the sky into it.

An eerie scene appeared.

As the skeletons in the sky were swept by the green Qi, the gray Qi on their bodies dissipated, and then they disintegrated one after another, falling from the sky.

And this green Qi, after being sprayed from the ghost shadow's mouth, seemed endless, and in the blink of an eye, it cooperated with the two blood-colored hurricanes, sweeping away the densely packed skeletons. It didn't even let Mu Qing and Liu Zu make another move!

Witnessing this scene, Han Li couldn't help but gasp.

After the blood-colored hurricanes disappeared, the two blood-robed figures transformed back into two blood rainbows and shot back. And after the green Qi dissipated, the giant ghost shadow behind the white-haired beautiful woman flashed and disappeared.

"Just some Yin bone monsters; they are considered the easiest existences to deal with in the Nether River land. The things encountered later will not be so easy to handle," Mu Qing looked at the large area of white bones in the distance and suddenly muttered.

She seemed to be talking to herself, and seemed to be reminding someone of something.

Han Li and Jin Ling nearby heard it clearly and couldn't help but look at each other.

It was just that Han Li showed a thoughtful expression, while the furry face of Jin Ling showed no expression at all.

Under Liu Zu's order, the Earth Abyss team continued to advance.

Two days later, above a blood-colored swamp, groups of strange blood-red bats were attacking the Earth Abyss demonic creatures wildly.

After these blood-colored bats were torn or slaughtered by the Earth Abyss demonic creatures, their scattered corpses would merge and recover as before. Only by killing them several times, or using fire-attribute magic spells, could they be killed in one strike. And once they pounced on the Earth Abyss demonic creatures, they would suck their essence blood wildly, and after just a few mouthfuls, they could turn the attacked prey into a pile of withered corpses.

Among these bats, the large ones were several *zhang* in size, and the small ones were also a foot long, among which over a dozen of the largest bats had human faces on bat bodies, spitting crimson blood light. Any demonic creature hit by the blood light instantly turned into dust.

Their power was so strong that even high-tier demonic creatures could not withstand a single strike head-on.

Therefore, this time, not only did all the demonic creatures make a move, but the four Demon Kings also used their divine abilities together, killing the human-faced blood bats one by one.

Han Li was wrapped in golden electric arcs, and as soon as the blood-colored bats touched the golden electric light, they immediately turned into clusters of blood Qi in the golden light, and then vanished into thin air.

At this moment, he finally understood a little why Mu Qing, the beautiful woman, and the others were so envious of the Evil-Warding Divine Lightning.

Clearly, many of the ghost creatures in the Nether River land contained more or less demonic Qi in their bodies. Using Evil-Warding Divine Lightning to deal with them was indeed exceptionally sharp.

Although the number of blood-colored bats was not small, under the counterattack of the four Demon Kings and numerous demonic creatures, puppets, and mysterious ghosts, their numbers decreased rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, they were sparse.

The remaining two or three human-faced bats saw that the situation was not good, and after a few "Puff" sounds, clusters of blood mist sprayed from their body surfaces, and they turned around and fled.

Their escape speed was so fast that after just a few flickers, they reached the end of the sky and disappeared without a trace.

Seven days later, in a blue, misty strange fog. Countless black ghost shadows changed into different shapes, flying around the Earth Abyss demonic creatures.

Although they didn't get close, they made strange ghost whistling sounds, some shrill and sharp, some Yin and eerie, making the low-tier demonic creatures sway one by one, their eyes blurred, looking like they could fall to the ground at any time.

At this time, a giant black bell flew out from the team, and after a giant bell ring that sounded like a dragon's roar, most of the ghost shadows dissipated and disappeared, and the remaining ones also let out mournful cries and retreated in all directions, disappearing into the fog.

A month later, above a pitch-black strange lake, a giant covered in rotting green flesh, but with three heads, stepped on the lake surface, waving a giant beast bone in both hands, fighting with a purple-blood puppet that was almost not smaller than it in volume.

Near them, countless ghost creatures in the lake and Earth Abyss demonic creatures were fighting together.

At this moment, the number of Earth Abyss demonic creatures had been reduced to less than ten thousand, and most of them were mid-to-high-tier existences. Even the eight thousand ghost soldiers and tens of thousands of puppets had suffered quite a few losses.

One day, a month later...

Han Li raised his hand, golden light flashed, and a bull-headed human-bodied ghost creature in front of him was instantly split in two. Immediately, a gray light mist swept from behind, and the several white bone arrows shooting from a certain direction disappeared without a trace. At the same time, he pressed his other arm into the void, and with a roll of Five-Colored Cold Flames, he turned the two green-faced fanged evil ghosts that appeared behind him into ice sculptures.

Just then, the sound of breaking air came, and a powerful wind pressure pressed down from the sky.

Han Li's expression changed, and his figure blurred slightly, disappearing from where he stood.

A giant wolf-tooth club over ten *zhang* long smashed into the place where he had been standing, and black light flashed on the nearby ground, collapsing into a giant pit several *chi* deep.

And the owner of the wolf-tooth club, a green-furred one-eyed giant corpse, looked around blankly.

Suddenly, above the giant corpse, green light flashed, and Han Li's figure appeared, merely pressing his hand into the void below.

A pitch-black small mountain appeared out of thin air, and as black light flowed through its body, it transformed into a thousand-*zhang* giant mountain.

With a loud "Boom", the black mountain peak not only pressed the giant corpse beneath it, but all other ghost creatures within a hundred *zhang* were also smashed into powder.

Han Li exhaled, and only then did he have a moment to hover in the high sky and look around in the distance.

Everywhere in all directions, ghost Qi was rolling and fog was steaming; as long as it exceeded a distance of over a thousand *zhang*, even with his Clear-Eyed Spirit Eye, he couldn't see anything clearly.

He could only judge that many Earth Abyss demonic creatures were still struggling to resist the attacks of the ghost army through the astonishing spiritual light and continuous roars that erupted in the distance from time to time. He just didn't know where the four Demon Kings were at this moment, and whether they were surrounded by those powerful Nether River ghosts.

Han Li's mouth twitched, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.

In the previous month, although they had fought continuously in the first ten days or so, the journey was smooth and they went further and further. But in the second half of the month, the ten or so fierce lands they passed through had no more ghost creatures appearing.

Several of the fierce ghosts and evil spirits in these places had some special divine abilities. Even the four Demon Kings were wary of them, specially refining eight thousand ghost soldiers and tens of thousands of puppets to prepare to force their way through. As for those low-tier demonic creatures, they had already been reduced to almost nothing in the previous fierce battles.

Facing this expected situation, Liu Zu and the others discussed it, and although they were somewhat uneasy, they naturally wouldn't turn back.

They could only continue to lead the team forward with extra caution.

As a result, on this day, when the team walked to this plateau where Mu Qing said there were no powerful ghost creatures, suddenly countless ghost armies appeared from all directions, countless in number, covering the sky and the sun.

Under the leadership of over thirty powerful ghosts with strength comparable to Void Refinement existences, they released thick Yin fog, instantly surrounding them, and then rushed out unexpectedly, scattering the entire team, making Han Li and the others fight on their own!

Han Li initially resisted the attacks of these ghost creatures together with Jin Ling and other Earth Abyss demonic creatures nearby.

But this Yin fog didn't know what kind of ghost path divine ability it was; as long as they were slightly separated during the fight, they would immediately lose their direction in the fog.

Although Han Li's spiritual sense was not weak and he had the Clear-Eyed Spirit Eye divine ability, after half a day of fighting, he had lost contact with the others.

He could only faintly hear the fighting sounds in the distance, while groups of ghost creatures constantly rushed out, fearless of death.

Fortunately, although these ghost creatures were numerous, they were at most at the Nascent Soul or Spirit Severing level and could not pose a real threat to him.

After fighting for a while just now, he had temporarily slaughtered all the nearby ghost creatures and had a moment of rest.

However, according to previous experience, after a while, new ghost creatures would rush out in groups to entangle him, making it endless to kill.

Han Li's expression was uncertain for a moment, then he suddenly grabbed downward with one hand, and the giant mountain flickered and disappeared.

And he himself flashed with green light, transforming into a green rainbow, shooting toward the direction where the fighting sounds were weakest.

Han Li wanted to escape from the fog-shrouded place and find a way to protect himself first.

If it really didn't work! He couldn't care about his wariness of Liu Zu, the white-haired beautiful woman, and the others; he would only release the Soul-Devouring Beast and force his way out of the encirclement.

Otherwise, if he kept killing without end, he might really be trapped to death by these ghost creatures.
