Chapter 1953: Saint Ancestor Demon Sound, Battle of Yitian (Part 11)

The thirteen beetles let out a hiss and immediately pounced toward the two glass puppets.

The two puppets shook their four arms violently, simultaneously shooting backward.

Not only that, the four hands the two puppets freed simultaneously flicked toward the spirit insects, and a sheet of silver electric arcs and a stream of yellow light mist rolled out.

As the silver arcs crisscrossed and flickered, they erupted with astonishing roars, seemingly containing immense power.

And that yellow light mist was silent, as unremarkable as flowing clouds and water.

Facing this attack, the purple-patterned beetles showed no intention of dodging. As their wings vibrated, they split into two waves and submerged into the electric arcs and light mist.

The silver arcs instantly crackled, and all of them shattered into pieces with a roar. Amidst the flickering electric light, it seemed as if the nearby void even faintly held a sense of scorched heat.

And inside the yellow light mist, countless runes strangely emerged, instantly wrapping the spirit insects inside, and the light also flared brilliantly.

This mist also seemed to possess some mysterious power.

But these thirteen purple-patterned beetles were candidate insect kings obtained by Han Li after tens of thousands of gold-devouring beetles devoured each other. Whether it was the toughness of their bodies or the other divine abilities they possessed, they were far beyond what ordinary existences could imagine.

Whether it was being struck incessantly by electric light or being tightly wrapped and entangled by the runes in the yellow mist, the spirit insects ignored these attacks. After their purple patterns swelled and contracted, they strangely pierced through the electric light and yellow mist. With another flash of purple light, they vanished and appeared before the two puppets, baring their fangs and pouncing viciously.

The two glass puppets naturally didn't have the emotions of ordinary living beings, nor did they have any sense of fear. After the glass spiritual light on their bodies swirled, one suddenly had two strangely thin and long transparent blades in its hands, while the other had a two-zhang-long seven-colored spear.

As the three weapons danced slightly, countless blade glows and spear flowers appeared, dancing in the sky and sweeping all thirteen spirit insects into them.

Amidst a series of clanging sounds, although the purple-patterned spirit insects didn't suffer any damage, they were unable to truly get close to the two puppets for a time.

At this moment, Han Li in the distance also happened to look over. Seeing this, his face sank, and the giant ape he had transformed into let out a long howl. The two Extreme Mountains that had been bounced into the high sky vanished from where they were.

The next moment, ripples appeared above the two puppets, and the black mountain peaks appeared strangely, spinning as a gray light mist rolled down.

The two puppets showed no fear, their weapons not stopping in the slightest, instead raising their heads and spitting upward.

With two "Puff" sounds, two seven-colored beams of light shot out, colliding with the gray light mist.

The two intertwined and exploded simultaneously, the various colored mists deadlocked in the air.

But just then, a roar rang out behind the giant ape in the distance, and a pair of crystal-clear thunder wings appeared. With a flash, the massive body transformed into an electric arc and vanished.

At almost the same time, ripples appeared behind the two glass puppets, and the giant ape suddenly appeared amidst the crisscrossing electric arcs, his arms blurring slightly as he moved.

Two "Boom" sounds rang out!

Seven-colored light swayed on the chests of the two puppets, and two furry fists appeared coldly, radiating a strange golden light.

The giant ape actually used an incredible speed to pierce directly through the bodies of the two puppets with his two massive hands.

Although these two puppets possessed the strength of the early stage of Body Integration, they were not truly controlled by other cultivators with spiritual sense, nor did they have intelligence. Facing Han Li after his transformation, after their reliance—the seven-colored light shield—was broken, their reactions appeared vulnerable.

However, puppets were puppets. If ordinary living beings suffered such heavy injuries, they should have lost their fighting ability, but the two glass puppets, apart from their figures swaying slightly, didn't lose their ability to act. Their three weapons shook violently, and a sky full of light instantly enveloped the giant ape behind them.

Seeing this, cold light flashed in the giant ape's eyes, and his two fists suddenly let out a muffled sound. Two silver flames emerged from them, wrapping the glass puppets inside.

It was the Spirit-Devouring Heavenly Fire that had been invincible before!

At the same time, the giant ape's body moved, shooting backward like a crossbow bolt, easily escaping the two puppets' attack.

But something that startled Han Li happened!

Although the silver flames burned fiercely, the two puppets showed no intention of melting. Apart from some charred marks on their crystal-clear, smooth bodies, there were no other changes.

Han Li was naturally greatly surprised!

But even so, he didn't need to take action anymore.

Although these puppets could still counterattack, their movements were clearly much slower than before. With a hiss, the thirteen purple-patterned spirit insects pounced on them, devouring them in large mouthfuls.

The two puppets used all kinds of divine abilities, but the thirteen spirit insects seemed rooted to their bodies, impossible to shake off.

And don't look at how these glass puppets could resist even the Spirit-Devouring Heavenly Fire; under the devouring of the purple-patterned gold-devouring beetles, they appeared vulnerable again. A short while later, they fell over with two hisses, rolling on the ground incessantly.

After another short while, the two human-sized puppets had half their bodies hard-eaten away, finally making no more sound.

During the process of the two puppets being devoured, Han Li formed a hand seal with one hand, returning to human form, and stood coldly to the side, saying nothing.

When the remains of the two glass puppets were gone, leaving not even a trace of residue, Han Li let out a low whistle and pointed one hand at the spirit insects.

After devouring the two puppets, the purple patterns on the bodies of the thirteen purple-patterned spirit insects seemed even more vibrant, and they were very excited. Under the urging of the hand seal, they showed some hesitation, not wanting to return.

Seeing this, Han Li's face sank, and his whistling sound became increasingly low, the spiritual power contained within it suddenly increasing by a few points.

The thirteen purple-patterned spirit insects then spread their wings, flying toward Han Li somewhat reluctantly, and vanished into his sleeves one after another.

"It seems these little guys really can't be used to deal with enemies often. I'll have to refine them a few more times when I get back." Han Li let out a light breath and muttered to himself. Then, his gaze shifted to an object in the distance.

A small purple tripod floated in the void, motionless, its body radiating faint black light, seemingly becoming extremely quiet after losing its original master.

A hint of joy appeared at the corner of Han Li's mouth, and he raised one hand, beckoning toward the tripod in the void.

The divine abilities this tripod had displayed earlier were truly incredible. If he could obtain this treasure, it would naturally allow his strength to reach a higher level.

The small purple tripod shot over with a "Swoosh," transforming into a ball of spiritual light. After a few flashes, it was about to fall into Han Li's palm.

But just then, a thunderclap rang out in the clear sky, and a purple lightning bolt struck down from the high sky, hitting the tripod.

With a muffled "Bang," the tripod flickered and vanished into thin air amidst the purple lightning.

At almost the same time, a voice filled with anger echoed in the void!

"Good, very good! Not only did you take away my Demon-Suppressing Lock, but you actually want to lay your hands on my Purple Word Tripod. It seems that even with my treasures, those two pieces of trash couldn't do anything to you. But it doesn't matter, I will come to meet you personally in a moment. Before long, fellow Daoist, you should be able to taste what it's like to be unable to live and unable to die!"

These words seemed to contain a mysterious power that couldn't be described. Although not loud, when they fell into Han Li's ears, they were like thunder.

Even with Han Li's astonishing spiritual sense, he felt a wave of dizziness in his head for an instant, his figure swaying a few times before he steadied himself.

But his face turned exceptionally pale!

"This is the spiritual sense of a Mahayana cultivator. Could it be the incarnation of that Blood Light Saint Ancestor transmitting his thoughts from afar? No, even if an incarnation is heaven-defying, it would at most have the cultivation of the late stage of Body Integration. How could its spiritual sense be this powerful? It must be the main body of that Blood Light Saint Ancestor! What does he mean by saying he will come to meet me personally in a moment? Could it be that his main body can descend to this realm personally? Otherwise, he should know that a mere incarnation wouldn't be able to do anything to me either."

Han Li was horrified, feeling great suspicion and doubt about the strange spiritual sense that had just appeared.

But he knew even more clearly that he absolutely could not stay here any longer and had to escape as soon as possible.

So he temporarily suppressed his chaotic thoughts, recalled his spirit body incarnation and the Heaven-Extinguishing Golden Body, stomped his foot, and immediately transformed into a cyan rainbow, soaring into the sky. After circling once, he shot away into the distance.

In a giant demon city not far from Sky Abyss City, on the main seat of a great hall, a handsome blood-robed youth sat alone on a golden chair, chin in hand, pondering something.

Suddenly, his brows moved, and a look of confusion appeared.

"What's going on? This feeling seems to be..."

A few breaths later, the youth's face changed, and he stood up from the chair in surprise, his face filled with disbelief.

"Could it be that another incarnation is descending to this realm? But the sensation is so intense, it doesn't quite seem like it; it seems more like the main body is breaking through the power of the boundary. But how is this possible? Could it be that he used that cultivation technique!" The blood-robed youth gasped.

Han Li kept his hands in a seal, and a beam of black light sprayed from the Destruction Eye between his brows, attacking a head-sized crystal stone on a high platform several zhang tall!

At the same time, a golden phantom with three heads and six arms appeared behind him, its six arms waving simultaneously, and balls of golden light also struck down fiercely.

He didn't know how long he had been attacking, but the crystal stone had clearly become dim, and faint cracks were appearing on its surface.

A crisp sound like breaking porcelain rang out!

The crystal stone finally shattered into pieces, and the Destruction Eye struck the core of the crystal stone in a flash.

With a hum, a white hole about a zhang wide appeared out of thin air.

Seeing this, Han Li's eyes lit up. Without a word, he retracted his divine abilities and dharma image, let out a long howl, and immediately transformed into a startling rainbow, vanishing into the hole.
