Chapter 1532: Unexpected Events

The white-haired matron, while bitterly resisting the attacks of the two silver rainbows and using her magic power to support the restriction above her head to delay the descent of the black light array, was completely unable to fly in pursuit.

But in her extreme rage, she still gritted her teeth and suddenly raised her hand to strike remotely toward the cyan rainbow.

This moment of distraction caused the light array above her head to immediately drop by a zhang.

The matron felt a shock in her heart. Unable to care about the result of her attack, she hurriedly urged the strange hammer in mid-air, increasing the green flames sprayed by the numerous skull heads, and barely managed to pause the descent of the light array.

At this moment, Han Li, seeing that he was about to drive the cyan rainbow across the distance of several dozen zhang and was about to reach the palace exit, suddenly had his expression change drastically. His escape light flickered, and his direction changed abruptly as he flew diagonally.

As a result, above his original position, Yin Qi condensed, and a gray ghost claw manifested from mid-air, grabbing down like lightning.

This claw was a zhang wide, with five pitch-black fingers wreathed in green flames. Wherever the ghost claw passed, even the nearby air distorted.

If Han Li hadn't been quick enough to dodge in advance, he would have been caught squarely.

However, although this ghost claw was exceptionally powerful, it only had the strength of a single strike.

After the ghost claw missed, with a soft "bang," it instantly dissipated and vanished.

Han Li felt a joy in his heart and was just about to fly to the entrance in one go when a shrill, sharp cry came from behind.

The sound was so fast that at the same time it rang out, a sharp wind arrived near his back.

Han Li's expression changed drastically. His escape light blurred abruptly, and he shot out horizontally, appearing several zhang away.

At this moment, a jade-green brilliance whistled past his original position, but immediately dissipated and vanished.

Han Li didn't look back, suddenly cast a spell with one hand, and shook one of his sleeves backward.

Golden light shone brilliantly behind him, manifesting a three-headed, six-armed golden shadow, and all six arms struck backward fiercely at the same time.

As the six fist shadows flickered, they merged into a golden gale and swept away.

From his sleeve, over a dozen round beads flew out, transformed into masses of cyan light, and shot out swirling.

At the same time, Han Li's Brahma Saint True Devil Art was pushed to the limit, and a layer of scales that appeared to be forged from pure gold manifested on his body, wreathed in black gas, and a layer of black resentment armor also appeared.

And the moment the black armor appeared, thunderous sounds rang out again, and another layer of golden robes covered his body.

Han Li had actually added three layers of protection to himself in an instant.

Only then did he feel a sense of relief in his heart and look back at what was behind him.

But before he could see clearly what it was, he heard a heaven-shaking "boom" erupt from behind, followed by a rolling wave of air.

He saw that thirty zhang behind him, a gale where golden glow and green light merged together soared into the sky, and within it, a cyan human figure was faintly visible.

Han Li's eyes flashed with blue light, and he instantly unleashed his spiritual eye divine ability, only then seeing the true face of the figure in the gale.

As a result, his expression became one of disbelief.

"How is this possible!"

Han Li exclaimed involuntarily.

The figure flicked both sleeves, and she forcibly split the gale and walked out from within. But the dozen or so masses of cyan light had also arrived before her eyes.

The figure gave a cold snort, shook her sleeve, and a mass of light glow flew out, wanting to sweep these inconspicuous cyan lights away as well.

But she had misjudged; she had greatly underestimated the power of these thunder beads.

The moment the glow contacted the thunder beads, the cyan light masses expanded and contracted, transforming into the size of cartwheels, and rolled toward her body.

Thunderous sounds erupted, the light masses exploded, and patches of cyan thunder clouds manifested. As the runes rolled, they instantly engulfed the caught-off-guard figure.

The figure was startled, spiritual light flashed abruptly on her body, and a jade tree shadow manifested on her.

Such fierce thunder and lightning power was blocked outside the tree shadow.

This person's expression was exceptionally ugly as she coldly stared at Han Li not far away from within the thunder clouds.

She was actually Mu Qing, who should have fallen.

This woman had used some unknown "peach-plum-for-the-dead" secret technique, escaped with her life under the Five-Dragon Guillotine, and had been hiding on the side, appearing completely unharmed.

But when Han Li appeared and wanted to escape, this woman could no longer restrain herself and suddenly made her move. However, she was careless for a moment and was trapped within the cyan thunder clouds.

Although these thunder clouds could not harm her life, Mu Qing was completely unable to leave the spot for a time.

Han Li felt a chill in his heart when stared at by this woman's gaze, but his body moved, and he appeared beneath the palace entrance.

A mass of cyan glow engulfed the unconscious Yuan Yao and Yan Li.

Han Li hurriedly beckoned with both hands, and the cyan glow flew over immediately.

He raised his arm and held one woman in each arm.

He took a deep breath, thunderous sounds rang out behind him, and he flapped his wings, about to soar into the sky and escape this dangerous place.

Just at this moment, another unexpected event occurred.

Spatial fluctuations arose on one side, a mass of blood mist burst forth, and from within the mist, a strange laugh rang out. A massive hand exuding a bloody stench probed out from the void like lightning, grabbing toward Han Li.

The blood hand appeared so eerily that it appeared right against Han Li's body.

Even if Han Li's movements were agile, he had no way to dodge, so his face turned pale, golden light shone brilliantly on his body, and he relied on his own defense to take the hit head-on.

A massive "boom" rang out.

The blood hand's five fingers curled with blood light, shattering the two layers of protection—the thunder robe and the black battle armor—and grabbed directly onto Han Li's shoulder.

Clearly, the owner of the blood hand did not intend to kill Han Li, but only wanted to restrain him.

However, this person clearly underestimated the defensive capability of the golden scales on Han Li's body. The blood flames turned his cyan robe into nothingness the moment they contacted it. But when the five fingers grabbed onto the golden armor plates, they only felt a chill at the fingertips and slid off; they were unable to break through Han Li's body surface.

However, Han Li's situation was not much better.

Struck by the blood hand, his body stumbled, and he almost flew out.

But fortunately, Han Li's movement technique was not something ordinary cultivators could compare to. His body just twisted eerily, blurred slightly, and he vanished from the spot as a shadow, not giving the blood claw a second chance to strike.

At this moment, blood light shone brilliantly in the nearby sky, and a bloody human figure flashed out. Its attire was exceptionally familiar; it was actually a blood puppet.

Only, the power of this blood puppet was not inferior to a Body Integration stage cultivator.

It was not something the two blood puppets Han Li had killed previously could compare to.

The purple-blooded puppet in the distance, while using its six eyes to continuously spray blood-colored light pillars to resist the two silver rainbows of the Five-Dragon Guillotine, suddenly had the two eyes at the back of its head turn eerily, staring coldly toward Han Li's side.

There was no longer any sign of it being controlled by anyone.

Han Li naturally did not know all this. But he knew very well that he must not be entangled by the unexpectedly appearing blood puppet.

Otherwise, as long as any of the demon kings in the palace could free their hands, he would not be able to fly even if he had wings.

Moreover, the golden light array sealing the green pool was constantly booming, and Liu Zu, whom he feared most, was about to break out of the seal.

Just at this moment, the blood puppet turned around, stared blankly at Han Li, and slowly raised both hands.

Blood light flickered on its five fingers, appearing and disappearing.

Han Li felt a chill in his heart, but let out a low shout. His body flickered, and he suddenly manifested several shadows, all shooting out to escape in all directions.

All the shadows held two women in their hands, looking exactly the same.

Blood light flashed in the blood puppet's eyes. After a glance, it stared only at one of the shadows shooting along the ground. After a sinister laugh rang out, its body flickered, and it vanished within a mass of blood-colored glow.

The next moment, blood light flashed beside the targeted shadow, the blood puppet manifested, and it waved both hands without ceremony.

Countless blood-colored claw rays whistled, instantly engulfing the shadow densely.

The shadow below was naturally Han Li himself. However, seeing that he hadn't deceived the puppet, his face remained exceptionally calm, and he moved both hands.

Black light shone in one hand, and a small black mountain expanded wildly, blocking before him. With the other hand, he raised his sleeve, and a pair of cyan scissors shot out.

Even if the blood puppet's claw rays were incomparably sharp, they naturally could not break the Meta-Magnetic Mountain.

He saw blood rays exploding continuously on the surface of the small mountain, causing it to hum and tremble incessantly, but in the end, it took all the hits and remained unharmed.

Strange light flashed in the blood puppet's eyes; clearly, it was greatly surprised.

At this moment, the cyan scissors cast by Han Li arrived before the puppet. As electric arcs shone brilliantly, they suddenly transformed into two cyan thunder dragons, and with a long cry, they crossed and lunged at the blood puppet.

It was exactly the Thunder Dragon Scissors of the Sky-Peng Clan!

The blood puppet remained expressionless, raised both arms, and grabbed directly at the two dragons.

Seeing this scene, a strange expression flashed on Han Li's face, and he suddenly took two steps back.

His wings flapped, cyan light shone brilliantly, and he actually transformed into a crystal thread carrying Yuan Yao and Yan Li, submerging into the void and vanishing.

The blood puppet let out a low roar, and suddenly changed its grab to a slap.

After two "boom" sounds, two masses of blood glow swept out, knocking the two dragons flying. The blood puppet's body flickered, and it was about to drive its escape light to pursue.

In this split second, golden light shone on the ground below, and a golden sword aura and two bright blade lights shot out from the ground, arriving beneath the blood puppet in the blink of an eye and slashing upward.

The blood puppet was startled. Its escape direction changed, and its body flickered to the side several zhang away, barely dodging this unexpected strike, while simultaneously glancing downward in surprise.

He saw two golden human figures manifesting on the ground below.

Both were a zhang tall, wearing golden battle armor. One held a golden long spear, and the other held a long blade in each hand.

They were actually two purple-golden armored warriors with blank expressions.

The blood puppet's gaze flashed, and it looked up at the sky, seeing that in this moment of delay, Han Li had already appeared at the entrance once again, transforming into a cyan rainbow and shooting out.

With a cold snort, just as the blood puppet wanted to take action, the two warriors below blurred, and the next moment they appeared on either side of the blood puppet.

One moved its spear, transforming into a golden giant python that lunged ferociously, and the other danced its twin blades, causing the air to whistle as countless golden wind blades swept over.
