Chapter 1721: Unexpected Encounter

With so many Dark Beasts, each of which had terrifying supernatural powers not inferior to the Void Refinement stage, gathered together. Even though Han Li and the other three were not ordinary existences, their hearts sank.

Han Li was fine, confident that he had many trump cards. If he was willing to pay a certain price, whether it was the Gold-Devouring Beetle swarm or the Profound Heaven Fruit, killing this group of Dark Beasts would naturally not be a problem.

He naturally appeared quite calm.

Liu Shui'er and Shi Kun saw so many Dark Beasts, but knew that the two of them absolutely couldn't fight hard.

Otherwise, even if they could win narrowly, they would definitely not be able to retreat unscathed. Even if their vitality was greatly damaged, it would be enough to make their subsequent journey difficult. How could they talk about finding any ruins or breaking the restrictions?

Fortunately, although these Dark Beasts accidentally blocked Han Li and the others, they had long known the fate of their companions in the previous waves. In shock and anger, they also acted like great enemies and didn't have the intention to take the initiative to attack.

It was as if they just wanted to entangle them temporarily, waiting for more Dark Beasts to arrive here.

Liu Shui'er thought for a moment, raised her eyebrows slightly, and moved her lips a few times.

The sound of her transmission rang in Han Li and Shi Kun's ears:

"Two Fellow Daoists, we are not far from the exit of the Dark Beast Forest. There is no need to fight hard against so many Dark Beasts. Let's break out separately for now and gather together again after we reach the outside of the forest."

"Alright, let's follow Fairy's words." Shi Kun also had the same intention and agreed without hesitation.

Han Li's eyes flashed, and he nodded faintly.

Seeming to see the abnormality of Liu Shui'er and the three, a Three-Eyed demon beast with a body far exceeding its peers let out a low roar.

The herd was in a commotion, and suddenly, they sprayed dozens of black beams of light simultaneously, and dense claw lights appeared in the void, covering Han Li and the other three.

Dozens of Dark Beasts joined forces to attack, and the momentum was naturally astonishing!

But Han Li and the other three had already killed many Dark Beasts, and had long had some experience in dealing with such attacks.

Spiritual light flashed on the three, and they performed their escape techniques.

Han Li formed seals with one hand, and a pair of crystal-clear wings appeared behind him.

With just a light fan!

He turned into a green-white thin thread and shot out, and after a few flashes on the way, the light thread made a few arc-shaped bends, strangely flashing past the dense beams of light and claw lights, appearing in the high sky behind the herd, and vanished into the void without a sound.

Liu Shui'er was simpler. She opened her mouth, spat out a blue crystal ball, and at the same time, the crystal-clear jade mouse appeared again under her feet.

Both radiated light, and the woman turned into a blue and white light ball and shot out.

Those black beams of light hit the light ball, actually vanishing without a sound like a mud cow entering the sea.

Then, with the sound of "chi-chi" breaking through the air, the blue and white light ball just blurred slightly, shot out over a hundred feet, and fled through the air at the end of the sky in another direction.

As for Shi Kun, his supernatural powers were much more domineering.

He just let out a cold snort, and after the spiritual light on his battle armor radiated, he hit his palms fiercely in front of his chest.

After a loud "boom," points of yellow light appeared around his body.

Then the light points expanded wildly and merged into one, turning into a strange light curtain, wrapping the big man inside.

The reason why this light curtain was strange was that dense spiral runes appeared on the surface of the light curtain. And those black beams of light hit the light curtain, actually making a rumbling muffled sound, and were bounced away under the flashing of the runes.

Shi Kun took this opportunity to twist his body, and with yellow light protecting him, he sank into the ground, and fled wildly at a depth of over ten feet underground. His speed was actually not slower than Liu Shui'er's just now.

Those Dark Beasts naturally couldn't let the three escape easily like this.

Under a roar from the leading Three-Eyed Dark Beast, the herd split into three waves and rose into the air, chasing after Han Li and the other two.

With Han Li having no scruples and being able to open his escape speed in the air, it was naturally not something the Dark Beasts behind could catch up with.

In just a meal's time, the light thread he transformed into was about to shake off the pursuers without a trace.

It was just that because his escape light was too conspicuous in the air, other Dark Beasts rushed out from under the forest on the way, wanting to attack him.

But Han Li just rolled his sleeves, and dozens of green lights shot out like a storm.

Without hiding the true power of the Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords, all the blocking Dark Beasts were instantly cut into countless pieces.

Even if one or two Dark Beasts reacted fast enough to wave their claws and release claw lights to block,

The green flying swords were like formless objects, flashing and piercing through the claw lights, directly slashing onto the Dark Beasts' bodies, causing them to die instantly.

So all the way, Han Li didn't stop for a moment without sparing magic power, and finally rushed out of the pitch-black woods after flying for half a day, completely flying out of the Dark Beast Forest.

The field of vision ahead brightened, and a boundless grassland appeared.

Although it was

But Han Li's escape light showed no signs of stopping; with cyan and white light threads flashing, he continued to break through the air toward the front.

After escaping in one breath for nearly one hundred thousand li, he discovered a mound several dozen zhang high ahead, and the cyan and white light threads finally circled and descended.

With a flash of light, Han Li appeared with a calm expression.

A blue light flashed in his eyes as he swept them to the left and right.

In such an empty and barren terrain, his spiritual eye ability could naturally be utilized to its limit.

In an instant, everything within a hundred-li radius was clearly imprinted in Han Li's mind.

As for regions further away, although he could still see some things, they became abnormally blurry.

Having discovered no threatening presence, Han Li exhaled lightly before releasing his spiritual sense again, sweeping across the nearby area and immediately retracting it.

After a thunderclap, the crystalline wings behind him disintegrated and vanished.

Afterward, he turned around and squinted his eyes, gazing toward the direction of the Dark Beast Forest for a few moments.

At such a long distance, even if those dark beasts were furious, they shouldn't escape this far to continue chasing him.

However, if they really dared to do so, Han Li wouldn't mind taking the opportunity to finish off all ten or so of these dark beasts.

The reason he hadn't wanted to tangle with them on the road earlier was naturally not because he was afraid of these dark beasts, but simply because he was wary of being chased by more of them and truly falling into a heavy encirclement.

Han Li stood on the mound with his hands behind his back, motionless. Gusts of clear wind blew past him, causing his clothes to flutter in the wind, making him look like an immortal.

Suddenly, he flipped one hand, and a blood-red magic plate appeared in his hand, with strands of silver silk faintly flashing on it.

Han Li looked at the magic plate in his hand for a while with flashing eyes, his brow furrowing.

"Since these two have already converged and are not too far from here, why haven't they come over immediately? Could it be that they've encountered trouble again?" Han Li muttered a few words, then with a shake, the object in his hand suddenly vanished. He then raised his head and gazed deeply in a certain direction.

Suddenly, cyan light flashed on his body, and he abruptly transformed into a cyan rainbow, soaring into the sky. After circling once in the nearby sky, he shot away in the direction he had been gazing.

Although his escape speed was not as incredibly fast as the teleportation-like speed from before, it was still definitely not to be underestimated.

After a short while, Han Li had escaped twenty to thirty thousand li away, arriving in the sky above another part of the grassland.

In the escape light, blue light flashed in Han Li's eyes several times, and a trace of strangeness appeared on his face.

After the sound of the cyan rainbow breaking through the air subsided, Han Li appeared in the void a hundred li away. As soon as his figure appeared, he looked forward with an expressionless face.

About a hundred zhang away from him, two groups of people were facing each other from afar.

One group was none other than Shi Kun and Liu Shui'er.

Beneath her cloak, Liu Shui'er's eyes flashed, looking exceptionally cautious.

Shi Kun, however, had a cold sneer on his face. As he clenched his fists, the battle armor on his body flickered, as if he were eager to try.

Opposite the two, another man and woman stood side by side.

The man had a face full of whiskers, wore silver scale armor on his upper body, and carried a giant trident-shaped weapon on his back, appearing exceptionally heroic.

The woman had willow-leaf eyebrows and dark eyes, with exceptionally fair skin. She wore green leather clothing on her upper body, which set off her full figure in a heart-pounding way.

But strangely, the lower halves of both their bodies were shrouded in a layer of white mist, and faint, crisp sounds like flowing water could be heard from within.

"Sea King Clan!"

Almost at the first glance, Han Li recognized the origins of the newly appeared man and woman, his expression changing slightly as he whispered.

Although the Sea King Clan did not directly border Tianyun, everyone knew that this clan and the Jiao Chi Clan were in an alliance.

No wonder both sides were at daggers drawn as soon as they met.

When the two groups saw Han Li shooting over, their expressions were naturally quite different.

Liu Shui'er's beautiful eyes lit up with joy, and her heart immediately settled.

Shi Kun didn't know what he was thinking, but he grinned at Han Li and greeted him politely.

The pair of Sea King Clan man and woman opposite, however, had their gazes turn cold, and they began to size Han Li up with unfriendly eyes.

But seeing that Han Li only had the cultivation of a Rank 7 Upper Clan member, the two couldn't help but look at each other in surprise, both seeing shock and suspicion in the other's eyes.

"Is your Excellency also from Tianyun!" The man opened his eyes wide and spoke, his voice exceptionally loud.

"For now, you could say that. Since the two fellow Daoists are here, could it be that you want to make a move against my companions?" Han Li's expression immediately returned to normal, and he asked back indifferently.

"Make a move against them? If that were really the case, would the two of them still be standing here safely!" The Sea King Clan man sneered and said with some sarcasm.

"What did you say? Such a big mouth! Hehe, Shi is not talented, but I would like to learn a thing or two about the techniques of your noble clan, which is known as one of the three great water clans." Upon hearing this, Shi Kun didn't get angry but laughed instead. His figure flickered as he took a large step forward, saying gloomily.
