Han Li was slightly startled, his gaze flashing as he finally made out the scene in the pit below.

He saw the five-colored peacock lying on its back with claws raised to the sky in the pit; although its feathers were in disarray, as if many had been cut off, it clearly had not suffered serious damage.

At that moment, the peacock opened its beak and uttered human speech, emitting a series of profound incantations.

As the layers of five-colored light arrays swirling around its body buzzed, they suddenly converged en masse toward a single point in the low sky.

Hundreds of small light arrays spun rapidly and condensed into a massive five-colored light array hundreds of zhang in diameter.

Resounding chants echoed from the great light array, accompanied by an astonishing outpouring of five-colored spiritual light.

Seeing this, Han Li's eyes flashed with cold light, and the giant ape he had transformed into suddenly clenched both massive hands before his chest.

A blinding golden light flashed, and the two golden-colored giant swords instantly merged into one.

The united sword, now thirty or forty zhang long, shimmered with golden light, within which a faint azure dragon coiled and danced, as if it could soar to the heavens at any moment.

A cold, icy "Slash" was suddenly spat from the giant ape's mouth.

The giant sword flashed and swung downward.

In an instant, a hazy azure sword light descended, flashing and instantly expanding to over a hundred zhang in size, roaring with wind and thunder as it fiercely struck the great light array.

"Pfft!"

The great light array was torn apart like paper scraps after the green light passed, but after a tumble, it immediately restored itself in the flashing five-colored light.

That slash seemed to have no effect whatsoever on the light array.

A trace of surprise flickered in the giant ape's eyes, but after a cold snort, the giant sword in his hand trembled, and without hesitation, he swung again.

From Han Li's experience, he naturally understood this light array was not truly indestructible—just a few more strikes would suffice.

However, as the second, even more powerful azure light blade left the giant sword, the five-colored peacock below suddenly ceased its incantation, and one claw appeared to clutch at something weighty in the void.

Instantly, a pained, strange howl erupted from another location.

Han Li shuddered, his gaze shifting as he involuntarily glanced toward the source of the howl.

He saw the thunder beast, locked in fierce combat with the Brahma Saint Golden Body, now wearing an expression of agony.

As thunder roared across its body, three-colored arcs of lightning surged outward, its entire form enveloped in a dense net of lightning; with a sudden movement, it abandoned the Golden Body and transformed into a cluster of three-colored lightning, shooting straight toward the great light array.

Though Han Li did not understand the beast's action, he almost instinctively let out a loud roar, and a furry fist smashed fiercely into the lightning.

At the same time, the Brahma Saint Golden Body, manipulated by the magic infant, likewise let out a long cry and transformed into a cluster of golden light, chasing after with the speed of wind and electricity.

"Boom!"

Though the giant ape's strike was made from a distance of a hundred zhang, a golden-colored fist shadow the size of a pavilion suddenly appeared before the lightning and struck the thunder beast's body with lightning speed.

With a roar, the thunder beast, despite its formidable origins, could not withstand the giant ape's full-force blow; the lightning net protecting it shattered instantly, and its body was flung backward by the impact.

In that brief moment of delay, the Brahma Saint Golden Body caught up, its six golden blades flowing and transforming into six golden-colored ancient mirrors; in a flash, six golden light pillars erupted with mighty force, spraying toward the thunder beast.

Explosive sounds rang out instantly as the light pillars struck the thunder beast, destabilizing its form; it stumbled and flew backward again, emitting a low pained howl, as if suffering minor injuries.

Seeing this, the giant peacock transformed from the fish shop owner became anxious, letting out a piercing, long cry as if desperately urging the thunder beast on.

A shrill, tragic cry rang from the thunder beast's mouth, followed by a surge of lightning behind it; then, in the next instant, an astonishing sight appeared.

After three soft "pfft-pat-pfft" sounds from behind the thunder beast, it suddenly revealed three pairs of golden, silver, and blue wings; as the six wings flapped once, a thunderclap rang out, and the beast vanished mysteriously within the swirling three-colored lightning arcs.

The subsequent light pillars emitted by the Brahma Saint Golden Body all struck empty air, hitting nothing but void.

Witnessing this, Han Li's pupils contracted; almost instinctively, he shifted his gaze downward to the great light array, and a black light flickered between his brows as a dark vertical eye strangely appeared.

As the eyeball moved, a black light pillar shot out, but immediately flashed and vanished into the void.

Thunder rumbled above the great light array, and in a clap of thunder, the six-winged thunder beast reappeared.

At the same time, a black light pillar as thick as a bowl's rim shot forth from the void, so close that even the thunder beast's astonishing teleportation after transformation could not avoid it.

In the blink of an eye, the black light pillar was about to strike the thunder beast squarely.

But the great light array suddenly buzzed, and five-colored spiritual light burst forth; the black light pillar stalled, then strangely veered off, grazing past the thunder beast's side by a hair's breadth.

In the next instant, the thunder beast hesitated not, spread its wings, and dove headfirst into the light array.

Han Li could not help but start slightly.

Though this all seemed complicated, it had actually taken barely the span of a few breaths.

The five-colored peacock in the pit below, witnessing all this, cried out joyfully, its body radiating five-colored light that surged like a tide into the great light array; even as its wings flared, its true form dissolved into spiritual light and vanished into the array.

In a moment, aside from the great light array, there was nothing left in the void below.

The great light array began to change, emitting rumbling sounds from within as its light blazed forth, spewing dozens of thick five-colored light pillars.

Each pillar was as thick as a person's embrace, and upon shooting out, it plunged directly into the white mist high above, vanishing without trace.

After a brief scan, Han Li discovered there were as many as eighty-one such massive light pillars.

Before he could even react, the eighty-one pillars simultaneously erupted with countless five-colored runes and began spinning furiously.

Instantly, an even more massive five-colored light pillar shot from the center of the array, flashed once, and vanished into the high air in a strange manner.

The next moment, a powerful spatial fluctuation erupted from where the light pillar had disappeared.

Immediately, a silvery misty hole appeared in the void directly above the light array!

Starting no larger than a fist, it expanded in a flash to the size of a zhang or so, and from it surged an extremely pure spiritual energy.

"Eh, this is…"

Upon sensing this pure spiritual energy, Han Li felt a vague sense of familiarity, as if he had encountered it before; his thoughts raced, and then he suddenly recalled that this purity closely resembled that of the Guanghan Realm.

Gazing at the hole still expanding, he felt a sudden ominous premonition; without thinking, he waved one hand, and the golden-colored giant sword in his grasp began to swing.

"Swish-swish" — the sound of breaking space rang out instantly!

Countless palm-sized golden sword lights lashed wildly at the silver hole, as if desperately trying to destroy it.

But then something happened that sank Han Li's heart.

No matter how the golden light slashed like a storm across the silver hole, the nearby void only twisted slightly, and the slashes had utterly no effect.

Moreover, not only that, a tremendous boom suddenly came from within the hole, followed by a silver light pillar shooting out from it; in a flash, it plunged directly into the great light array below.

The originally booming light formation suddenly blazed with light, and various 'colored' runes surged up one after another, while the entire light formation frantically expanded outward.

The silver 'colored' light pillar came to an abrupt halt, and the silver 'colored' hole vanished with a flash, after which the originally enormous light formation suddenly swelled to more than ten times its size, and the five 'colored' spiritual light it emitted filled nearly half the space below, making it seem as if one stood upon a vast five 'colored' land, splendid beyond compare.

At the same time, from the center of the light formation came the strange sound of women and children weeping, which caused anyone who heard it to instantly feel their spirit become dazed, as if falling into a demonic obstacle.

Upon hearing this, Han Li's 'colored' face changed drastically.

But it was not because of the influence of this strange sound; rather, at the moment the weeping sound rang out, a sudden 'hair'-raising sensation surged into his heart, giving him a deadly feeling as if he might perish.

"Not good!"

Han Li let out a silent cry, and truly became solemn. He

With a thought, the three-headed, six-armed Brahma Saint Golden Body flickered and vanished from sight in an instant, but immediately a flash of golden light appeared, and it strangely manifested beside Han Li.

Then, without a word, its six arms moved in unison, and in each palm a cluster of golden light spun endlessly, and then simultaneously pressed together before the chest, instantly merging the six clusters of golden light into one, forming a vortex of golden 'colored' light the size of a head.

At the same time, the three heads and six eyes of the golden body flowed with strange light, and three utterly different incantation voices overlapped and issued from its mouths.

Thunder rumbled within the vortex, and a Brahman sound emerged from within; in a flash, it expanded to several times its size, and as it spun rapidly, faint points of starlight-like spiritual light could be seen within.

"Go," the giant ape beside it suddenly roared, uttering human words.

Upon hearing this, the golden body immediately hurled the golden 'colored' vortex in its hand fiercely downward into the light formation.

Wind and thunder rose loudly; the original zhang-sized golden light, the moment it left the hand, immediately swelled wildly in the wind, and in the blink of an eye grew to over ten zhang in size, and continued to expand desperately.

By the time it was about to make contact with the five 'colored' light formation, the vortex had transformed into a vast expanse of golden 'colored' ocean a hundred zhang in diameter, and the invisible immense force hidden within the vortex even caused the nearby space to blur and twist into a mess.

This was the first time Han Li, after advancing to the mid-stage of Body Integration, had the Brahma Saint Golden Body fully unleash the Vortex Golden Light, and its power was so great that it even exceeded some of Han Li's own expectations.

After a thunderous, earth-shaking roar, the golden 'colored' vortex slammed hard into the center of the enormous light formation!
