Chapter 1790
"Boom!"
The demonic aura that had originally surged out wildly from the jade coffin, after a loud bang, actually rolled back and flowed into the black coffin in a swirling motion.
In the blink of an eye, the black aura filling the entire hall vanished completely, not a trace remaining.
The patterns inscribed on the surface of the jade coffin then flared brightly, flashing with dazzling white light. The jade coffin itself was pitch black, and the interweaving of black and white actually gave people a feeling akin to suffocation, an eerie and strange sensation.
However, this flashing spiritual light lasted only a few breaths, and immediately the light retracted, becoming extremely dim.
But at this moment, a faint humming sound emerged from within the jade coffin, and hundreds of sure silver-colored ancient characters shot out from behind, then after circling in midair, suddenly condensed into six enormous silver-glimmering illusory figures.
These illusory figures varied: some were extraordinarily tall and bulky, clad in armor all over, while others were slender and tall with horns on their heads, each taking the form of a humanoid demon.
The appearance of these silver-colored illusory figures lasted only a brief instant; in a flash, they turned into specks of silver light and vanished into thin air.
The next moment, a groan came from within the jade coffin, and an arm completely wrapped in black armor suddenly shot up from within, followed by a slender black-armored warrior slowly rising from the jade coffin!
This warrior was not only covered head to toe in an ancient-style black armor, but also wore a visor shaped like a green-faced, fanged demon, revealing only two pale blue eyes from within, clear as water.
"Six Extremes Elder Sister, is your physical body alright? Can you unleash a few percent of your true body's divine powers with this magic hammer?" Yuan Chuo immediately asked with concern upon seeing the female warrior rise.
"Although there is still some suppression in this realm, I can still muster about twenty percent of my true body's strength, enough to deal with all opponents below the Nascent Soul stage." The female warrior stretched her body and replied with a light laugh.
"Twenty percent is indeed enough to run rampant among humanity. Elder Sister, your awakening comes at just the right time—I am currently facing some troubles and need your assistance." Yuan Chuo heard this and his expression relaxed.
"Troubles? What troubles? Eh, you don't seem to be alone—who is that beside you in the Qiankun Disk? Is it one of our Holy Race? Could it be that the old poison dragon has also descended into the Spirit Realm?" The female warrior swept her gaze outward and immediately noticed the huge jade disk beside the stone hall, asking in surprise.
"It's not the poison dragon, but several incarnations of Blood Light manipulating this treasure. Moreover, I am currently joining forces with him to hunt down a human cultivator, who actually possesses the Demon-Suppressing Lock, the Purple Speech Cauldron, and the two Qi of Chaos—these are great treasures!" Yuan Chuo said without hesitation.
"Demon-Suppressing Lock, two Qi of Chaos? That is somewhat interesting—I am also intrigued. Tell me the details of this matter!" The female warrior's eyes flashed, revealing some surprise, but her voice remained unusually calm.
"The matter is thus: I was originally entrusted by another incarnation of Elder Sister to stop a human action unfavorable to the Holy Race, but upon arriving at the site of action, I discovered..."
"Thus, we can only drag out our confrontation with that human brat, and Blood Light is clearly not very reliable either. When we truly catch up to that human cultivator, there will likely be further developments between us."
After the time it takes to finish a cup of tea, this woman finished recounting the general events and let out a long breath with a wry smile.
"After hearing you say this, Blood Light must have some other tricks up its sleeve, otherwise how dare it entertain such an idea against you? Given his ability to use borrowed bodies to manifest avatars in the Spirit Realm, compared to your direct descent via incarnation into this realm, he is definitely weaker by more than a notch. However, you need not worry, since I have awakened at this time, I will naturally not stand by idly. The two Qi of Chaos are greatly beneficial to us Holy Ancestors, and it would be a pity for them to fall into Blood Light's hands. Moreover, this incarnation of mine descending to the lower realm carries many magic crystals, enough for you to replenish your magic power." The female warrior said calmly after listening.
"Excellent. With Elder Sister's help, I naturally have no worries." Yuan Chuo also appeared extremely delighted.
……
One month later, Han Li appeared before a vast mountain range shrouded in a thick, gray mist.
This mist was not only unusually dense, but also shot straight up into the heavens, seemingly connecting with the sky, appearing boundless.
At this time, Han Li sat cross-legged in a blue triangular flying vehicle, eyes closed, each hand grasping a top-grade spirit stone as he silently regulated his breath.
As the flying vehicle, transformed into a blue rainbow, drew ever closer to the mountain range, Han Li seemed to sense something, his brow twitched slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes.
"Finally arrived—this must be the legendary Southern Heaven's End. No wonder it is the supernal spell formation formed over many years to protect humanity. If not for the merging of the two realms weakening the seal's power, it would truly be difficult to pass through this place." Han Li murmured softly, then his expression turned icy as he closed his eyes again.
Yet the flying vehicle he rode showed no intention to stop; after a few flashes, it entered the mist without hesitation.
Half a day later, the stone hall and the huge jade disk also flew side by side to this place.
Yuan Chuo and Blood Light, who controlled the two treasures, upon seeing this, emerged and exchanged a few words, then similarly activated the treasures and entered the mist without hesitation.
For them, having already driven Han Li to this point, they naturally had no reason to give up, even though they knew the Barbaric Wilds world was extremely perilous—they could only follow closely behind.
……
Three months later, Han Li appeared above a swamp, his fingers flicking as countless blue sword qi crossed and intertwined, instantly slicing a purple giant lion trapped within a golden lightning net into countless pieces of minced flesh, from which a shower of blood rained down from the sky.
He made a grasping motion in the void, and a clump of purple light flew out from the blood rain, flashed once, and landed in his hand.
It was indeed a crystal-clear monster pellet the size of a chicken egg!
"After all this effort, I have finally dealt with this late-stage Void Refinement Purple-Eyed Lion. With these monster pellets, I should be able to first refine a batch of Spirit-Absorbing Pills. With these pills, my internal magic power should be able to last a while longer." Han Li exhaled deeply, his face somewhat pale, but the corners of his mouth twitched into a faint smile as he murmured to himself.
Although he had many magic power-restoring pills on his person, after nearly a year of continuous use, they naturally began to run short. And relying solely on spirit stones to restore magic power would be far insufficient to sustain his escape.
Han Li made up his mind, deciding to risk seeking out the lairs of several high-level ancient beasts, slaying them directly with thunderous methods to obtain some monster pellets. Using these pellets as raw material, plus some other spirit medicines as auxiliaries, he could indeed spend the least time refining a batch of magic power-restoring pills.
Although due to time constraints the fire control was somewhat insufficient, causing these pills to greatly waste the potency of the monster pellets, Han Li could no longer afford to worry about this.
Nevertheless, this act also allowed Han Li to feel somewhat more at ease.
As long as he could timely slay some ancient beasts to obtain sufficient materials for refining magic power-restoring pills, he believed he could endure longer than his pursuers behind him.
One day later, when Blood Light's three incarnations and Yuan Chuo also appeared at the swamp, gazing upon the ancient beast remains already reduced to a pile of minced flesh, the faces of all four showed some displeasure.
Clearly, they also vaguely guessed Han Li's intention in doing this.
Although they could not think of a countermeasure for the moment, being in a predicament where they could not dismount, they could only grit their teeth and continue the pursuit.
Fortunately, both of them still carried many magic crystals, so for the time being they need not worry about insufficient magic power.
Thus, Han Li, on his journey, alternated between slaying some ancient beasts and refining some magic power-restoring pills, gradually bringing the pursuers behind him deeper into the depths of the Barbaric Wilds world.
Occasionally encountering periods when ancient beast monster pellets were unobtainable and magic power-restoring pills could not be refined, Han Li would simply harden his resolve, directly consuming some immortal herbs and fruits taken from the Guanghan Realm.
Although these spirit medicines varied in nature, none lacked extremely pure spiritual energy within them; though consuming them raw greatly diminished their effect, they could still promptly replenish some magic power.
However, doing so would naturally compress some miscellaneous medicinal properties within Han Li's body, which still posed a certain harm to his physique. If under normal circumstances, he would only need to spend some time using magic power to expel or refine these miscellaneous medicinal properties, and all would be well.
But given Han Li's current hurried state of fleeing for his life, whether in time or magic power, it was impossible to waste on this matter, so he could only temporarily suppress these miscellaneous medicinal properties deep within his body, to deal with them later.
With Han Li's current abilities, no problem would arise in the short term, but if time passed and he continued to raw-consume other spirit medicines, it would eventually become a serious hidden danger for him.
Han Li himself was well aware of this, but for the sake of his life, he could only helplessly persist.
Thus, as he and his pursuers fled and chased, time passed unnoticed, and another half year went by.
On this day, Han Li sat in the flying vehicle with eyes closed in meditation, while before him stood a white-robed woman with a heroic bearing, her hand forming seals, her body surface flowing with crystal light as she controlled the flying treasure for Han Li.
This woman was precisely that spirit puppet.
Although this puppet's magic power was far inferior to Han Li's, and its evasion speed while controlling the flying treasure was greatly slowed, yet when Han Li needed to regulate his breath, it at least prevented him from stopping somewhere and waiting idly for the pursuers to catch up.
This allowed Han Li to occasionally catch his breath.
Otherwise, such a long journey, even with magic power pills and spirit stones for replenishment, would fundamentally be unable to sustain him until now.
But just like this, Han Li's complexion, compared to half a year ago, was visibly much worse, and his aura had become faint and elusive.
Suddenly, Han Li's complexion stirred, and he abruptly opened his eyes.
Almost at the same time, in the void not far from Han Li, a thunderclap rang out, and countless silver arcs appeared, gathering and intertwining to actually form a giant silver lightning formation.
At the center of the lightning formation, with a roar, a burly and tall figure staggered and flashed into view.
