Chapter 1590

~11 min read 2,022 words

Just then, a muffled rumbling sound suddenly came from outside the stone door, and a layer of milky white barrier spiritual light flickered on the surrounding walls. As it flickered incessantly, the ground shook violently, as if the entire hall were about to collapse. Net

"What is going on? What happened!"

These tremors naturally could not affect the few people before him, but they made the expressions of the three change slightly. The green-skinned alien even let out a cry of shock and anger. Following this, the green-skinned alien and the big-headed alien exchanged glances and almost simultaneously activated their escape lights. One transformed into a green rainbow and shot out, while the other's figure blurred slightly and disappeared on the spot.

Even though this plaza had a no-fly barrier, with their cultivation bases, as long as they forcibly mobilized the spiritual power in their bodies, this level of barrier naturally could not truly bind them from using escape techniques. It just consumed a bit more magic power.

Han Li did not hesitate either. After sweeping his gaze across the magic formation first, he hesitated for a moment, then suddenly shook his sleeve, and a green light shot out, circling the magic formation.

"Bang bang" sounds were heard as the green light instantly slashed it into pieces before flashing back.

At this moment, spiritual light rose on Han Li's body, and he followed them out with a trail of afterimages.

As soon as his figure appeared outside the stone door, he saw that the plaza was in chaos, with people rushing into the surrounding buildings to hide.

And above the plaza, a layer of pale blue light screen had appeared at some point, covering the entire city. And far away in the unknown higher sky outside the light screen, countless white light balls the size of heads were striking down like a rainstorm.

Bursts of blinding light erupted on the light screen, and at the same time, deafening rumbles continued incessantly, causing the protective shield to shake violently, looking as if it were barely holding on.

Han Li was greatly shocked and hurriedly raised his head to stare intently outside the light screen, blue light flashing wildly in his pupils.

As a result, after a moment, Han Li's eyes twitched a few times, and he gasped.

Under his spiritual eye technique, he saw the source of these attacks clearly.

At an altitude of three or four thousand feet, a giant "island" had appeared.

That's right. It was indeed a "silver island" that flashed all over, as if made of pure silver, nearly ten thousand feet in size. And the bottom of the entire island was covered with dense white crystal pillars, their surfaces flashing with runes, spraying out balls of light that fell densely.

"Not good, this is a giant warship of the Jiao Chi clan! How is this possible? Could the Jiao Chi clan's main army have arrived ahead of schedule?" The big-headed alien took out a blue mirror at some point, stared at it for a few moments, and then blurted out.

"What is the use of saying this now? We must flee for our lives. Brother Yuan, you have been stationed in this city for so many years. You must know a few secret paths to escape outside the city," the green-skinned alien also arrived nearby and asked anxiously upon hearing this.

"I do know a secret path that can quietly lead to a small mountain ten miles west of the city. However, there are so many fellow daoists of various clans in the city, and we cannot just leave them be. I will immediately let everyone gather at the city gates and let everyone flee for their lives according to their own fate. If they are lucky, perhaps they can really escape with a portion of the people," the big-headed alien said, a look of hesitation flashing across his face before he gritted his teeth.

"Alright, let's do that," the alien in the red light also shot over from the other side of the plaza and agreed repeatedly upon hearing this.

Han Li and the green-skinned alien had no objections either.

Seeing this, the big-headed man did not hesitate!

As yellow light flashed on his body, a yellow light suddenly flew out from him, and after a flicker, it actually transformed into a giant phantom a hundred feet tall.

Its appearance and clothing were exactly the same as the big-headed alien himself.

This phantom was so huge, and with yellow light shining all over, it was naturally extremely conspicuous.

Suddenly, the phantom let out a low shout, the sound like a great ancient bell ringing. Everyone who heard this sound felt their spiritual sense shake, and their original panic relaxed quite a bit.

Immediately, tens of thousands of gazes in the plaza stared at the phantom of the big-headed man in the sky.

And it was the phantom transformed by the big-headed alien that said with a solemn expression:

"Fellow daoists, do not panic. The city's defensive formation can hold for a long time and will not be broken immediately. Now everyone hurry and gather at the four city gates. I will cancel the barrier at the city gates in a quarter of an hour, letting you all flee for your lives. However, before you flee, I must warn you fellow daoists: this sudden, unprovoked attack by the Jiao Chi clan is a total attempt to exterminate our Tian Yun Thirteen Clans. Don't think about surrendering or seeking temporary safety. As far as I know, those who are captured are either thrown into the Jiao Chi clan's Ice-Fire Black Prison as slaves or are immediately soul-searched and infant-extracted to be used for alchemy and weapon refining."

The big-headed alien's words were exceptionally sinister!

The aliens in the plaza first looked at each other in dismay, and then, after someone shouted, they scattered and fled in all directions.

And once they left the plaza, everyone immediately transformed into dense escape lights and gathered toward the four city gates.

The big-headed alien performed an incantation, and the phantom in the sky immediately flickered and dissipated. Then he turned his head and said to Han Li and the others:

"Follow me, fellow daoists. Our targets are too large, and we cannot mix with them."

The others naturally nodded one after another.

Thus, the four of them transformed into four rays of light and flew out of the plaza instantly.

At this time, the blue light screen above the city had been completely submerged by the white light after the light balls in the sky burst.

This protective blue light began to emit a low humming sound, which was the manifestation of the formation operating to its limit. The big-headed alien flew while looking at the sky, a bitter look appearing on his face.

"What is it? Brother Yuan is still reluctant to leave this city!" the alien in the red light asked lightly.

"I have been stationed in Green Light City for over a thousand years, and all the barriers and formations in this city were made by my own hands. Now that I have to abandon it, I naturally feel some reluctance," the big-headed alien did not hide it and sighed lightly.

"Brother Yuan, don't be so depressed. Although the Jiao Chi clan is powerful, our Tian Yun Thirteen Clans are not necessarily weaker than them when we join forces. Perhaps there will be a day when we can take it back," the alien in the red light comforted him a few times.

"I hope so," the big-headed alien said with a bitter smile.

"Brother Yuan, how could the Jiao Chi clan's main army arrive so swiftly? Didn't the scouts sent out two days ago say they were still two days away? How did the Jiao Chi clan's warship arrive at the city walls today? Could it be that those Jiao Chi clan vanguards played some tricks?" The green-skinned alien asked suddenly.

"I don't know exactly what happened either. It is true that the previous Jiao Chi clan vanguards did not carry any warships of any tier. And the warship that appeared here is a 'Fortress' tier warship, second only to the 'Domain' and 'City' tiers of the Jiao Chi clan, and there is very likely a presence that has reached the third tier of the Holy Clan inside. It is simply not something we can contend with," the Yuan-surnamed big-headed man shook his head, his expression turning gloomy again.

"Hmph, even if there is no Holy Clan presence inside, with such a large warship, there will definitely be no shortage of those at the same stage as us. We can only flee for our lives. I just hope that the high-level existences on the warship didn't notice us and were attracted by the others fleeing," the alien in the red light laughed.

Han Li was startled when he heard this and couldn't help but glance at the Yuan-surnamed big-headed man. Seeing his calm expression and lack of rebuttal, he felt a sudden realization!

So, the big-headed alien's words to the others about fleeing were actually intended to use them as bait to attract the attention of the Jiao Chi clan, so they could use a "cicada shedding its skin" strategy to leave quietly.

However, although Han Li felt a slight chill in his heart, he didn't say anything.

Facing a matter involving his own life, he naturally couldn't say that the other party's actions were wrong.

However, in his heart, Han Li couldn't help but be a bit more cautious toward these three aliens.

With the speed of the four, they flew extremely fast, and in just a moment, they arrived before a seemingly ordinary pavilion.

The door of this pavilion was tightly shut!

Before his escape light landed, the Yuan-surnamed alien shook his sleeve in the air, and a wild wind swept out.

The door seemed to have been struck by a giant force, shattering into pieces and vanishing.

Han Li and the others flashed a few times and escaped directly into the pavilion from the outside.

The first floor of the pavilion appeared empty; apart from a few tables and chairs, there was only a statue of an unknown deity several feet tall leaning against a wall.

This statue was pitch black, sitting on the ground with a big belly, four eyes and four hands, and slender legs, looking somewhat strange.

After Han Li and the others swept their gazes around, they didn't see any obvious entrance to a passage and couldn't help but look at the Yuan-surnamed alien together.

The big-headed alien ignored the gazes of Han Li and the others, and without moving his feet, he slid to the front of the statue.

He opened his mouth, and a yellow round crystal stone was spat out, then flashed and disappeared into the statue's head, vanishing without a trace.

With a "chi la" sound, a blinding light flashed, and a ripple like water surface spread across the statue's body.

The previously lifeless statue flashed with yellow light in its four eyes, and after its four arms waved, it actually stood up with a rumble.

This statue was actually a puppet.

Han Li and the others naturally looked on with wonder.

But as the big-headed alien performed an incantation with both hands to activate the puppet, an even more astonishing scene occurred.

The puppet waved its four hands, and after yellow light shone brightly, its body expanded by more than double, its torso almost filling the first floor of the pavilion, and then its arms slapped its own belly simultaneously.

Spiritual light flashed, a strange rune formation appeared, and then with a "ka cha" sound, a small door opened on the puppet's belly, opening outward on its own.

A space several feet large appeared before everyone. And on the ground of the space was a small teleportation magic formation about a foot in size!

The Yuan-surnamed alien did not hesitate, took a flying step forward, walked into the puppet's belly, and stood on the teleportation formation.
