Chapter 1980
At the same time, the golden-furred giant ape let out an angry roar, opened its mouth, and sprayed a thick golden light pillar at the woman in the air, which flashed out instantly. Net
But the giant ape itself rolled over, and amidst the rumbling sounds transformed into a silver-colored giant roc with four wings, its entire body wrapped in silver arcs.
This roc merely spread its four wings and turned into a strand of cyan-white light that vanished into the void; several hundred zhang away, a fluctuation occurred, and the light strand reappeared, but after a slight tremor, it vanished once again.
Han Li felt his current state was not good, and the woman before him was clearly profound and unfathomable, so without hesitation he immediately fled.
Having transformed into the four-winged giant roc, his escape speed was so fast that even the three blood-light incarnations from last time, working together, could not catch up for a moment. Thus he was unusually confident in his escape speed.
The slender woman in the air waved one hand, and a pitch-black sword light descended from the heavens, easily slicing and destroying the golden light pillar that had shot toward her.
But in that brief delay, the giant roc had already reached an extremely distant place, visible only as a faint black dot.
"You want to run? Since I've seen you, if I don't extract your soul and refine your spirit, how could there be such an easy matter in the human realm!" The woman in the air glanced at the distant black dot, her eyes flashing with cold light as she spoke icily.
Afterwards, the woman pointed downward with one hand, and the ground below rumbled as two huge stone men emerged completely from underground, and under her magical command, they flew simultaneously into midair, where they strangely coalesced into a huge gray-white light ball, emitting dazzling radiance.
At this moment, the woman's body moved and directly transformed into a black mist that surged into the huge light ball, flashing and disappearing within it.
In an instant, the blinding light retracted, and suddenly a stone palace tens of zhang high appeared in midair.
This palace was entirely gray-white, with over a dozen pillars standing straight and rugged, giving a sense of wild, barbaric beauty.
The woman stood gracefully at the center of the palace, lightly touching the stone floor with her jade feet, and uttered the word "pursue."
The palace surface immediately rippled with a layer of misty white spiritual light, which trembled and then shot out like meteors chasing the moon, straight toward Han Li.
Though the palace appeared clumsy, once it moved it spanned a hundred zhang in an instant, its escape speed so fast that it was hardly slower than Han Li's four-winged giant roc form.
Han Li, fleeing ahead, naturally noticed this, his heart filled with alarm, yet he became even more unwilling to stop and easily engage the pursuers.
The opponent was clearly no ordinary demon venerable; he did not wish to fight to the death while in possession of chaotic qi and in poor condition.
Moreover, the aura emitted by the woman made him feel extremely dangerous, and also slightly familiar!
This made Han Li unwilling to act rashly before clarifying the woman's origins.
Even though his giant roc form was only slightly faster than the woman's, given enough time he would naturally have a chance to completely shake her off.
Thus, although Han Li's mind was full of doubts, he now merely channeled his magic power with all his might, incessantly driving the four wings forward in flight.
With their astonishing escape speeds, after half an hour they had fled over a million li away.
At this point, Han Li had already thrown the stone palace tens of li behind him.
This distance would naturally be considered extremely far for ordinary mortals, but for someone like Han Li it was still only a moment's chase away.
Nevertheless, as the distance gradually increased, Han Li finally felt somewhat relieved, and after turning his thoughts over, began to ponder the woman's origins.
At the same time, inside the rear stone palace, the blue-robed woman had already seated herself on a stone chair at the center of the hall, gazing coldly in the direction of pursuit, her eyelids not twitching in the slightest.
"Hmph, this human youth was merely a lowly ant in the lower realms back then; now, after over a thousand years without seeing him, he has actually advanced to mid-stage Body Integration and even learned such astonishing transformation techniques. It seems he cannot be underestimated. But to think that with this bit of supernatural power he could escape from under my eyelids is simply too fantastical."
The woman's jade visage sank as she muttered these two lines, then suddenly let out a fierce shout:
"Shi Gan, you two begin teleporting immediately; after such a long time, it should be enough for you to lock onto this person's position."
"Yes, my lord Yuan Cha! We will begin transmission immediately, but the position may have a slight deviation; please, my lord, pay close attention." A buzzing sound suddenly came from the palace ceiling, and after the stone slabs writhed, a rough giant face indeed appeared.
"A slight deviation is nothing; it's enough to intercept this youth. Begin transmission immediately!" The woman paid no heed to this, issuing the command decisively.
"Yes!"
This time, the giant face said nothing more, immediately responding in affirmation.
The next moment, the stone palace that had been flying at extreme speed suddenly halted in midair.
Then, amidst two strangely toned incantations, the palace surface flowed with spiritual light, and dense five-colored runes surged forth.
These runes were extraordinarily profound and mysterious; after coinciding with the incantation voices in a burst of blinding light, they suddenly detached from the palace and scattered outward, and as they spun rapidly, they instantly formed a huge five-colored rune array in all four directions.
The palace happened to be at the center of this array, and amidst the flashing radiance, it vanished in a blink.
At the same time, Han Li, flapping his wings in flight, suddenly sensed a fluctuation in the void a short distance away, and his heart startled as he involuntarily turned his head to look.
Not far away, a huge rune array silently appeared, within which five-colored light flashed, as if a huge object were about to vaguely emerge.
"Not good!"
Han Li himself was also versed in teleportation and spell formations, so he could not fail to recognize this as a rare giant teleportation rune array; he immediately let out a long cry, and the giant roc's four wings paused in their escape light, but as a black aura flickered between his brows, a bloodline split open and a black vertical eye suddenly emerged.
This was indeed Han Li's cultivated Destruction Law Eye, nurtured within his body for many years, which he forced out using the giant roc's body—something he could never have done before his current Body Integration stage.
The Destruction Law Eye merely spun strangely on the giant roc's skull, and a black thread shot out.
As soon as this black thread sprayed out, it was as fine as a hair, but after a flick, it became a bowl-thick pillar of black light, which flashed and vanished into the void.
With a "Boom!"
The black light pillar flashed into existence right next to the rune array and slammed into it, producing a heaven-shaking, earth-splitting explosion.
Instantly, the black light blazed dazzlingly, the five-colored light rolled turbulently, and the two intertwined into a mass that submerged the entire rune array.
After the giant roc made this attack, the Law Eye between its brows flashed and vanished immediately, and after flapping its four wings once, it shot forward again, leaving no trace of attack intent.
Clearly Han Li also knew that the Destruction Law Eye's attack could not truly harm the opponent, so he acted so decisively.
Indeed, this was exactly the case!
When the blinding light from the explosion faded and dispersed, the space at the center of the huge rune array twisted and blurred, and the huge stone palace emerged somewhat unsteadily.
However, under the influence of the chaotic spatial force, the palace could not immediately fly to pursue the giant roc, only able to endure a layer of white light shield while trembling amid the undulations.
"Destruction Law Eye!"
The woman seated on the chair in the stone palace witnessed this scene, uttering each word, her complexion turning somewhat unsightly.
Under the woman's gaze, Han Li's giant roc form flickered a few times and then vanished again as a black dot in the distance.
"Hurry up and give chase!" The woman raised her eyebrows and issued a stern command.
The delicate shout echoed throughout the palace, showing the master's uncontainable anger.
"Reporting to my lord, due to the influence of spatial force, we must first adjust our condition before we can mobilize magic power again!" The giant stone face flashed once more atop the palace roof, and replied with a somewhat apologetic buzz.
"Hmph, by the time you adjust your magic power, this human youth will have long since vanished; I will lend you a hand!" The woman snorted, grabbed the smooth handles on both sides of the stone chair with both hands, and layers of black demonic aura rolled off her body, pouring wildly into the handles as if sentient.
"Thank you, my lord Yuan Cha, for your assistance; we will be able to act immediately." The stone face 'showed' a look of 'joy' as it spoke.
After almost the time it takes to breathe, the stone hall's surface Bai Guang flowed and shifted, then it flashed and shot away again.
Although this transmission of the stone hall did not manage to block Han Li, it indeed shortened the distance between it and Han Li considerably, so the woman continued her frantic pursuit without losing spirit.
Han Li naturally continued to flee with his head down without stopping.
In this manner, whenever Han Li managed to increase the distance slightly, the woman would certainly activate the stone hall's transmission ability, flashing and greatly reducing the distance once more.
Having absorbed the failure of the first transmission, the woman's transmission position was not too close to where Han Li was, so even though Han Li possessed the Destruction Law Eye, he could not cause any damage to the transmission.
This made Han Li feel extremely vexed in his heart.
Although he also had a Thunder Array capable of transmission, the transmission position could not be controlled at all; transmitting too close might cause him to collide with the pursuers himself, and transmitting too far would require a long casting time, which he simply did not have.
Moreover, even if he could truly transmit over ten thousand li away in one go, he would likely be unable to shake off the opponent's divine sense lock, and would be pursued again shortly.
The woman behind seemed actually harder to shake off than the three incarnations of the Blood Light Holy Ancestor from that day.
In this way, as the two fled and pursued, they actually continued for a full half day.
Because Han Li chose a route that was scarcely traveled by people, he did not encounter any other demon tribe 'insert' hands blocking the way along the journey.
But seeing the pursuers behind appearing as if they would chase to the ends of the earth, Han Li's heart sank slightly, and he had no choice but to begin desperately thinking of other escape strategies.
He naturally did not know that, in the stone hall over a hundred li behind, the blue 'color' palace-attired woman had produced a black 'color' ancient mirror, and was expressionlessly conversing with another demon tribe member about something.
