Chapter 1666: Mountain Collapse

Although Han Li didn't look at it in detail, he still roughly understood the content recorded in this Silver Tadpole Script; it was a mysterious artifact refining technique he had never seen before.

Just reading some of the specific content gave him a feeling of extreme absurdity.

Because the materials and refining methods used inside were almost things Han Li had never even thought of.

The scripture even claimed at the end that refining treasures with this secret technique could be mentioned in the same breath as Profound Heaven Treasures, which was why this technique was called the Profound Heaven Artifact Refining Technique.

Such heaven-defying means as "Refining the Sun" and "Melting the Sea" were just the simplest artifact refining methods in this scripture. Such methods could probably only be performed by True Immortals of the True Immortal World. To Han Li, this was basically a daydream.

Although he hadn't looked at it in depth, Han Li felt a great sense of disappointment in his heart.

If it weren't for the fact that this scripture was written in Silver Tadpole Script, he would have almost thought that this scripture was deliberately fabricated by that demonic ape.

After pondering for a moment with some reluctance, Han Li's blue eyes flashed again as he looked at the blood bed.

A moment later, his expression shifted, and he had truly discovered something else.

Suddenly, Han Li's figure flickered, and with a slight blur, he appeared above the blood bed.

He spread the five fingers of one hand and slapped the top of the blood bed.

A "rumbling" sound erupted, and countless slender golden arcs shot from his fingers, turning into a golden net that covered the blood bed beneath it.

The silver runes immediately shrank back as if they had encountered a nemesis, vanishing without a trace in the tears of light in an instant.

And under the violent strikes of the golden arcs, the blood bed shattered inch by inch, and at the same time, a thick blood Qi dispersed, making one want to vomit just by smelling it.

Han Li raised an eyebrow, but closed his five fingers that were emitting golden arcs.

The lightning net below immediately closed, and amidst the flashing electric arcs, the blood Qi was shaken away by the lightning light.

Subsequently, within the golden electric net, a milky white jade plaque the size of a palm appeared, with silver runes flickering unsteadily on it.

"Sure enough, it's another outer page; it seems the item is not fake. However, the Gold-Que Jade Book should have originated from the lands inhabited by the human and demon races; how could it have drifted to the outside world and fallen into the hands of this demonic ape?" Han Li didn't reveal a look of surprise, but instead frowned and muttered to himself.

Speaking of which, this Gold-Que Jade Page was the third page Han Li had obtained, but unfortunately, the things recorded on it were somewhat of a chicken rib to him. If he could advance to the Mahayana stage, it was possible he might use the things on it.

However, this Profound Heaven Artifact Refining Technique could allow him to learn from and contemplate it; if he could realize something from it, it would still be of great benefit.

Thinking this, Han Li knew that now was not the time to study this jade page in detail, so he flicked his sleeve.

A sheet of azure mist flew out!

Just as the mist was about to roll the jade plaque inside, the object spun and bizarrely flew away to one side.

But Han Li had long been prepared, and one palm grabbed into the void with lightning speed.

Instantly, an invisible force covered the area, circling everything within a radius of more than ten zhang below.

With a "whoosh," the jade plaque was forcibly sucked over and captured in his hand.

Han Li immediately took out a jade box from his storage bracelet, carefully placed the jade plaque inside, and after sticking several restrictive talismans on it, he put it away in a flash.

After doing all this, there was nothing left in the hall to make him linger.

His figure moved, and he immediately turned into an azure rainbow, shooting out of the hall, and in just a few flashes, he vanished into the demonic Qi passage.

Han Li, inside the escape light, had a top-tier wood-attribute spirit stone in each hand. The emerald light flickered unceasingly!

At the same time, the pills he had swallowed earlier began to take effect, and wisps of pure spiritual energy emerged within his body, being slowly absorbed into his meridians.

Right now, he was shooting toward the location sensed by the Gold-Devouring Beetles.

That was the true destination of the crystal-race woman's risky venture deep into the Demon Gold Mountain Range.

Although he didn't know what the other party was plotting, he thought it absolutely wasn't a simple item.

Han Li had now finished his own business for this trip and had no more worries, so he naturally felt great interest in "sticking a foot in" to take a look.

Although the battle with the demonic ape earlier had been extremely dangerous, in reality, it hadn't taken much time, only about the time it takes to eat a meal.

The Gold-Devouring Beetle he had sent to track them had stopped somewhere and was motionless; it was clear the crystal-race woman hadn't fully succeeded yet, so the timing should be just right if he went over now.

Although his magic power was depleted quite a bit and his Dharma Idol body had shrunk by nearly half, the crystal-race woman's cultivation was too low, so he naturally had no scruples in his heart.

Otherwise, if he were facing an existence with cultivation similar to his, Han Li, fearing his own cultivation was greatly damaged, might have pretended not to know and fled the place directly, unwilling to create more trouble.

Han Li's escape light was extremely fast, but just as he had flown nearly halfway, a heaven-shaking loud noise suddenly came from deep within the giant mountain, and then a strange change occurred!

The demonic Qi in the entire passage lost control and churned violently, and at the same time, a roaring sound arose in the demonic Qi, a gale blew, and countless pitch-black wind blades appeared densely, flashing and shooting in all directions throughout the passage.

Han Li was startled, flicked his sleeve, and a layer of gray light instantly wrapped his body inside.

Those wind blades, although seemingly violent, all dissipated and vanished upon striking the Meta-Magnetic Divine Light.

Han Li frowned, and as his thoughts turned, just as he was about to ponder what had happened, a strange roar like a galloping horse's neighing came to his ears like a thunderclap.

Just hearing this sound, he suddenly felt his internal magic power freeze, unable to mobilize a single bit.

Then, the gray light on his body scattered, and Han Li's figure plummeted straight down in the air, and in the process, the wind blades shooting from all directions in the passage slashed onto Han Li like a rainstorm.

If it had been an ordinary human cultivator, they would naturally have been torn to pieces in an instant.

But Han Li's physical body was formidable, no less than a Body Integration-level demonic beast. After a series of muffled "bangs," he was actually unharmed within the azure light.

However, even so, Han Li was extremely shocked and angry. As his spiritual sense moved quickly, the Great Development Technique instantly turned into a stream of cool air that flowed through his body, and the abnormality of his internal spiritual power vanished.

His escape light rose, and he turned into an azure rainbow once again, soaring into the sky.

And just at this moment, the ground beneath the entire passage he was in suddenly shattered inch by inch, followed by a thunderous sound, and countless pitch-black electric arcs sprayed out.

Whether it was the demonic Qi or the stone walls in other directions, upon contact with these electric arcs, they instantly turned to ashes.

Han Li was startled, the spirit stones in his hands vanished instantly, and he pinched a spell seal with one hand; with a crackle, a gold and silver lightning robe appeared on his body.

Although those black electric arcs trapped him in circles, amidst the flashing and flickering of various electric arcs, Han Li appeared unharmed.

But subsequently, after countless thunderclaps erupted continuously from the ground, the entire demonic Qi passage, under the violent waving of the black electric arcs, completely collapsed.

Countless giant rocks the size of boulders fell wildly from the air; although Han Li's divine abilities were not weak, he was caught off guard and buried deep beneath countless giant rocks...

Outside the giant mountain, the entire peak was collapsing at an astonishing speed, as if an invisible giant hand had pressed down on the entire mountain, forcing it downward.

And from the shattered mountain walls, streams of black demonic Qi were also squeezed out, desperately trying to disperse in all directions.

A neighing sound came again from the collapsed mountain peak, followed by a deafening thunderous sound!

More than a dozen pitch-black electric lights broke through the shattered rocks, turning into black lightning over a hundred zhang long, dancing wildly in the air.

Looking from afar, it seemed as if more than a dozen thick tentacles were waving unceasingly in the void.

Then, a heaven-and-earth-shattering sound erupted, countless shattered rocks burst out from the collapsed giant mountain, the entire mountain seemed to have been leveled, and where the original mountain had stood, a behemoth over a thousand zhang long was revealed.

This monster was composed entirely of black light, but its surface was covered in countless black lightning arcs of varying sizes, and the dozen "tentacles" that had emerged earlier were merely the thickest parts.

Yet at the very center of the black light, there was shockingly a white giant face, a mu in size, with eyes wide open, flickering with a chilling, sinister light.

Suddenly, a dragon's roar erupted from the black light, and a flash of blood light appeared somewhere on the giant monster's body. A blood-red dragon broke through the monster's body and shot out from within; after just one flash, it was bizarrely a hundred zhang away, and after circling once, it revealed a man covered in silver armor but filled with sharp barbs.

It was precisely the outsider, the man surnamed Gui.

Only at this moment, his face no longer had the original sinister and cold look, but had become pale, and his eyes were filled with wild rage.

And at this moment, another muffled sound came from the giant monster's body below, and then a small half of its body, several hundred zhang in size, exploded from within. A stream of azure hurricane rolled out, and as the hurricane condensed, it turned into an azure-light-shrouded Qilin phantom over a hundred zhang tall.

The giant face roared, and one of the thickest black electric arcs let out a thunderclap, slashing down like a giant blade.

But the giant Qilin phantom just flashed, and as if it were invisible, it turned into a breeze and vanished.

The next moment, in another direction over a hundred zhang away, the azure wind blew, and the Qilin phantom flashed out again, but its body instantly shrank countless times, turning into a few zhang in size, but its form became exceptionally solid, as if it were real.

Only then could it be seen clearly that between the brows of the azure Qilin, there was an extra shimmering crystal. And the eyes revealed the same look of shock and rage.
