Chapter 1541
Hearing this, Yuan Yao and the other woman looked at each other, their expressions becoming uncertain.
Naturally, the two of them would not give up the idea of restoring their normal bodies.
"It was my lack of consideration. Listening to Brother Han's previous words, it seems you have already broken through spatial nodes before. If that is the case, if we can truly find a relatively stable node, my Junior Sister and I naturally hope to leave this place. But as for how to find the nodes, the two of us are completely ignorant of this." After being silent for a long while, Yan Li said with a bitter smile.
"The two fellow Daoists can rest assured about this. I have some unique methods in this regard. However, if we really want to set off to search, we must wait for a period of time and wait until we have avoided the search of the Ghost Matriarch and the others. Regardless of whether they eventually obtained what they wanted, because of the Mayfly Clan, they will not stay here for too long. The period of time after they leave the Underworld River land and before the people of the Mayfly Clan arrive is the best opportunity for us to search for nodes and escape. Now, we should find an extremely hidden place to hide for a while first." Han Li said leisurely, appearing unusually confident about this.
After Yuan Yao and Yan Li heard this, they felt it made a lot of sense and nodded repeatedly.
Thus, after the three of them finished discussing, their escape light did not stop at all, flashing past the nearby sky, and finally disappeared at the end of the horizon.
A few days later, Han Li and his group appeared over a bizarre expanse of water.
The water surface was green tinged with black, and another layer of faint black mist lingered above it!
What was even more peculiar was that in this endless water area, whether it was a sea or a lake, islands of various sizes were scattered all over it like stars in the sky.
Han Li and the others ventured deep into it for a day and a night in one breath, still without seeing any sign of an end.
"Let's hide here. This water area is so vast that I'm afraid it's no less than an ordinary ocean. I think that even if those Demon Kings search for us, they will never be able to find us in a short time. Moreover, I vaguely feel that there seem to be many terrifying things hidden deep under the water. If some things exist, the Ghost Matriarch and others will not dare to search too wantonly with their spiritual sense, which also serves as a barrier for us to a certain extent." Han Li took the lead in stopping his escape light, and after a flash of blue light in his eyes, he swept his gaze across the unusually thick black mist below and said slowly.
They had already seen many such thick mist clusters condensed together along the way, but under his spiritual eye ability, this black mist vaguely looked like a small island hidden underneath.
Although Yuan Yao and the other woman could not see through the islands in the black mist, since Han Li had said so, the two women did not hesitate and immediately agreed, falling into the black mist below with Han Li.
Something that startled the three of them happened.
These black mists looked ordinary, but as soon as the three of them flew into them, they suddenly felt the black mist around them roll and pounce on them, and then the spiritual energy in their bodies dispersed, causing the escape light of the three of them to instantly collapse and disappear.
"Ah!"
Yuan Yao and Yan Li were greatly shocked, their faces changing drastically as they cried out. Although various spiritual lights flashed on their bodies one after another, their figures still fell straight into the depths of the mist.
Han Li was equally horrified in his heart, but fortunately, he had experienced countless sudden events, and he instantly switched through several types of Dharma spells in his body, running the Origin Magnetic Divine Light, the Brahma Saint True Demon Art, and others simultaneously. However, they were equally ineffective, and he was unable to muster enough spiritual power. But in a moment of desperation, he activated the Kunpeng Transformation of the Twelve Awakening Arts, and a flash of green light suddenly appeared on his body, instantly transforming him into a giant green Peng, restoring his full magic power.
Han Li was overjoyed, spread his wings, his body size expanded several times, and with a movement of his figure, he grabbed the two women, one in each claw, and then shook his body to shoot out into the high sky.
After a few flashes, the giant green Peng flew out of the mist and appeared at a higher place.
The green light converged, the Peng disappeared, and Han Li appeared in the void, having transformed back into human form. Yuan Yao and Yan Li had now regained their magic power, and they hovered in the void again, their faces pale.
"What happened? Why is this black mist so terrifying? If it weren't for Brother Han's intervention, we would have suffered a great loss." Yan Li muttered, her face pale.
Yuan Yao's face was also pale, but as her bright eyes flickered, a strange expression appeared.
Han Li put his hands behind his back, examined the rolling black mist below, and also revealed a thoughtful expression.
"It is indeed a bit strange, but this feeling... Fellow Daoist Yuan, do you also have a very familiar feeling!" Han Li turned his head and asked Yuan Yao.
"Brother Han is right. I have indeed experienced this kind of encounter once before in the Mortal World. It was when I was swept into the Ghost Mist in the Chaotic Star Sea and entered the Underworld." Yuan Yao said in surprise.
"The Underworld, the Underworld River land! Hehe, these two sound quite similar, and coupled with this strange mist that makes people lose their magic power, there should be some connection." Han Li touched his chin and said thoughtfully.
"But there are still some differences. It feels like the effect of the mist here stealing people's spiritual power is slightly inferior to the Ghost Mist of the Mortal World. Although I cannot muster magic power, I can still sense the existence of spiritual energy. But when I was swept into that Ghost Mist that day, I was completely the same as a mortal." Yuan Yao seemed uncertain.
"I have the same feeling. The specific reason might be that the strange mist here is not as good as the one in the Mortal World, or it might be that after our cultivation has greatly advanced, the Ghost Mist naturally seems far inferior to what it was back then. However, there are some differences between the two. The Ghost Mist in the Mortal World seems to be more spiritual and will actively devour nearby cultivators. And here..." Han Li shook his head and pointed out the difference between the two.
"It really is just as Brother Han said. The black mist here shows no signs of actively devouring. But the Ghost Mist in the Mortal World can sweep people into the Underworld River land; this mist wouldn't also lead to other realms or spaces, would it?" Yuan Yao's eyes brightened, and she became somewhat excited.
"I'm not too sure about that! After all, we have never been able to figure out the origin of the Ghost Mist and the Underworld in the Mortal World." Han Li sighed and said so.
"I see that the black mist nearby is about the same; are other mists also this powerful?" Yan Li had been listening from the side, and suddenly asked with a flash in her eyes.
"I really haven't paid attention to that! The two fellow Daoists can wait here for a moment; I'll go and come back." Han Li was startled, but immediately raised his eyebrows and said.
A flash of green light appeared on his body, and he transformed into a giant green Peng again. With a flap of his wings, he immediately shot out a distance of over ten feet and flew away into the distance.
Only the two women were left looking at each other.
"Junior Sister Yuan, the divine abilities that Fellow Daoist Han practices are really numerous. He even learned this Flying Spirit Clan transformation secret technique." Yan Li said with amazement.
"Senior Sister, have you forgotten? Brother Han entered the Earth Abyss as a Holy Son of the Flying Spirit Clan; it's not too strange that he knows this secret technique." Yuan Yao said with a smile.
"Junior Sister doesn't know. A Holy Son of the Flying Spirit Clan is not something just anyone can pass off as. I have heard about this from others. A Holy Son of a Flying Spirit branch not only needs to possess the True Spirit essence blood of the Flying Spirit branch but also has other various harsh conditions. Even for people of the Flying Spirit Clan itself, becoming a Holy Son is extremely difficult. I don't know how Fellow Daoist Han managed to do it and learn such divine abilities." Yan Li smiled charmingly.
"So that's how it is." Yuan Yao nodded, but her gaze looked somewhat dazed in the direction Han Li had disappeared.
When Yan Li saw Yuan Yao's expression, a trace of a strange look flashed in her beautiful eyes, but she immediately smiled and said again:
"Compared to this, I am even more curious why Brother Han was not afraid of this Ghost Mist after transforming into a Peng."
"It is a bit strange, and I am also somewhat puzzled. Could it be that the Flying Spirit Clan's transformation secret technique has some other unknown divine ability?" Yuan Yao was distracted by this question, withdrew her gaze, and also revealed a confused expression.
"This is hard to say; let's ask Fellow Daoist Han later. Perhaps he knows something." Yan Li pursed her lips and smiled.
"That might not be good. It seems inappropriate for the two of us to directly ask about matters related to secret techniques and cultivation methods." Yuan Yao hesitated when she heard this.
"Hehe, given the friendship between you and Fellow Daoist Han back then, this little matter shouldn't count for much. We are not trying to probe his secret cultivation methods. It's just that this Ghost Mist is so bizarre, and I want to see if we can find any way to restrain it. However, since I am not very familiar with Fellow Daoist Han, it would be more appropriate for you to ask, Junior Sister." Yan Li said nonchalantly.
When Yuan Yao heard this, she frowned, thought for a moment, and then nodded silently.
After a full hour, the green light flashed in the sky again, and after a clear cry, the giant green Peng shot back.
After a few flashes, a gust of wind rose, and the Peng appeared in front of the two women. Then the green light converged, the Peng disappeared, and Han Li's figure appeared on the spot.
"How is it? Are those black mists also bizarre?" Yan Li couldn't help but ask first.
"Not all of them, but a portion of them can devour spiritual power. And most of them are mist clusters with a wider area and are relatively thick." Han Li replied with a solemn expression.
Hearing Han Li's answer, the two women also revealed expressions of surprise.
"Then should we still enter the black mist to investigate?" Yan Li asked with a long sigh.
"Logically speaking, we have our own troubles, and it is unwise to investigate this matter further. These black mists have the magical effect of restraining and blocking spiritual sense. If we can hide in them, even if those Demon Kings have great divine abilities, they will never be able to find us. The only worry is whether there are any dangers deep within these black mists." Han Li said with a slight hesitation.
"As long as we can avoid the search of the Ghost Matriarch and others, it is worth taking some risks. Besides, Brother Han, didn't you say that after transforming into a Kunpeng, you are not afraid of this Ghost Mist?" Yan Li said with a smile.
Han Li smiled slightly, and before he could say anything, Yuan Yao hesitated and asked:
"Brother Han, your transformation secret technique comes from the Flying Spirit Clan, right? Why are you not afraid of this strange mist draining your magic power after transforming? Do you know the reason for this? Is there any way for the two of us to avoid losing all our magic power in the mist?"
