Han Li could naturally sense the pursuers behind him approaching again. Immediately, the giant roc he transformed into let out a low cry, and suddenly countless golden flowers flew out from his body.

Each one shook in the wind and was the size of a bowl, actually being golden, shimmering beetles.

They were precisely the mature Gold-Devouring Beetles Han Li had left behind, and he had released several thousand of them in one breath.

Although those golden blood shadows seemed to have undying bodies, they were instantly submerged by so many Gold-Devouring Beetles. In just a few breaths, they were swallowed clean, leaving not even a trace of residue.

The giant roc let out another long cry, and all the spirit insects flew back one after another!

A thunderclap!

The giant roc flapped its four wings and disappeared in place.

And at the end of the sky in the original place, thunderous sounds continued, and after a few flashes of silver arcs, it disappeared without a trace.

After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the jade plate and the stone hall whistled over, and after pausing slightly, they both stopped in the nearby void.

As light flashed, two figures appeared above them.

One had a graceful and slender figure, and the other had a body covered in hazy blood light.

They were precisely the incarnations of Yuan Cha and Xue Guang!

Although both scanned the surroundings, their expressions were different.

The blue-clothed palace woman was expressionless, but as her beautiful eyes turned, a look of annoyance appeared.

The blood-robed youth, however, had a livid face, and his brows were filled with anger.

"This brat is truly tricky. Even my Blood Light Crystal Guards couldn't intercept him for a moment. It seems he really intends to wear us down." Xue Guang said hatefully.

"Hmph, aren't your guards known as undying bodies? They were actually destroyed by mere spirit insects; they are truly too useless!" Yuan Cha snorted coldly and said.

"Yuan Cha, stop with the sarcastic remarks. I don't believe you didn't see the origin of these spirit insects! Even if my guards practiced the Blood Body Demon Art, how could they resist the devouring of ancient fierce insects." Xue Guang replied without a good tone.

"This seat naturally saw it. But if these Gold-Devouring Beetles were in the hundreds of thousands, this seat would be wary of them. But since they are just such a small number, how could they truly do anything to you or me? At worst, we can just use wood or stone treasures to trap them." The woman said indifferently.

"Wood or stone treasures? I do have two on me. But can you be sure this brat only has this many spirit insects? What if he has over a hundred thousand spirit insects to drive? I can't handle that. And this brat doesn't know how many means he hasn't displayed yet. If we push him step by step like this, won't we end up suffering both losses!" The blood-robed youth twitched his mouth and said.

"Over a hundred thousand Gold-Devouring Beetles! You really dare to think like that. Alright, even if this Han brat truly has so many spirit insects, do you think he has such strong spiritual sense to drive them? Over a hundred thousand Gold-Devouring Beetles, even if your or my true body were here, our spiritual sense power would be exhausted in an instant. Rest assured. The spirit insects just now should be this brat's limit. If he could truly urge them to fight easily, why wouldn't he have used them to deal with you or me earlier, instead of waiting until now? However, this brat's divine abilities are indeed not weak, we need to be more cautious. Xue Guang, you aren't planning to give up now, are you? If that's truly the case, this seat can just chase him down alone. You just need to mobilize your men to block all the paths for this person to return to the human race's stronghold." The woman curled her lips and said with a cold laugh.

"I was just saying that. Since Fellow Daoist has such confidence, I will naturally accompany you to the end." The blood-robed youth's expression changed slightly, but he immediately yawned and said.

This Demon Race Holy Ancestor had lost two heavy treasures on Han Li, so how could he truly give up chasing?

"However, you also know that although I command the Holy Race army in this area, it's impossible to use all my strength to besiege this brat. Otherwise, if something truly goes wrong, I won't be able to explain it to others." Xue Guang rolled his eyes and said again.

"What do you want to say? Just say it directly, don't beat around the bush." The woman raised her eyebrows and said impatiently.

"Hehe, it's nothing. Since we can't capture this human cultivator in a short time, you and I can only make some long-term plans. Why doesn't Fellow Daoist mobilize some elites from Liuji's side? In this way, this brat won't be able to escape. With your friendship with Liuji, this little matter shouldn't be a problem." The blood-robed youth stared at the woman's face and said slowly.

"Mobilize Liuji's men? Hmm, this is indeed a good method. Alright, I can agree to it. But during this period, your men must entangle this brat tightly, not giving him a moment of respite, and even more so, not letting him take the opportunity to slip away." The woman's eyes flashed a few times, and not knowing how she considered it, she actually agreed in one breath.

"Rest assured, Fellow Daoist Yuan Cha. I will naturally mobilize my strength to block all the passages to Tianyuan City and other human race areas, making him thoroughly become a frightened bird." Xue Guang promised with joy.

"Hmm, that's best. Before Liuji's men arrive, you and I might as well follow him at a distance. After this brat is exhausted, we can chase him down and capture him, which should be easy!" The woman said coldly.

"That's natural! Actually, with your and my divine abilities, if we were willing to lose some vitality, how could we truly be unable to do anything to this brat." Xue Guang also said with a smile.

"Alright, let's move. This brat's escape speed is truly not slow. If we don't leave now, he might truly escape our sensing range." Yuan Cha looked into the distance and suddenly said.

"That's natural. However, further ahead, I have already mobilized another seven waves of men waiting there, which should be able to consume his strength a few more times." Xue Guang nodded slightly, revealing a trace of eeriness.

Yuan Cha didn't say anything more upon hearing this, but twisted her graceful body, transformed into a mass of white light, and shot toward the stone hall.

As for Xue Guang, he pinched an incantation with one hand, and with a "Peng" sound, transformed into a mass of black gas and sank into the jade plate.

The next moment, the stone hall and the giant jade plate flowed with spiritual light, and with a roar, they shot away.

The direction they fled in was precisely the direction Han Li had taken earlier.

At the same time, Han Li, who was ten thousand miles away, was flying forward like lightning, his heart gloomy!

Now, after being chased and killed by the demon race incessantly for these two months, how could he not understand the general thoughts of the two great enemies behind him?

In this short time, he had repelled or killed at least thirty or forty waves of enemies.

These demon races were sometimes just low-tier demon races or demon beasts gathered together, and sometimes they were the most elite forces in the demon army, and even two waves of enemies had Demon Venerables participating in the attack.

If it were normal times, these demon races, although not few in number, wouldn't be in his eyes at all.

But with two great enemies watching him at all times, how could he dare to tangle with these enemies slowly? He could only use thunderous means to destroy these demon races in one strike.

The consequence of doing this naturally caused Han Li's magic power and spiritual sense to drop wildly along the way.

If it weren't for the fact that he possessed numerous medicinal pills that could replenish a little spiritual power, he would have long been unable to support himself and collapsed.

But even so, Han Li's current situation was also terrible.

His magic power after successive fierce battles was less than five-tenths of his peak, and his spiritual sense power, after having to mobilize several thousand Gold-Devouring Beetles, was also only a small half left.

This made Han Li's heart sink.

However, fortunately, the two great enemies behind seemed to have been shocked by his successive strong means, and for a time, they didn't dare to come out personally, just mobilizing their subordinates to intercept him.

This, in turn, allowed him to be temporarily safe.

But this situation clearly couldn't last long. Once they discovered that he was already strong on the outside but weak on the inside, or truly mobilized a large number of men to surround him, his little life would naturally be unable to be preserved.

Han Li naturally wouldn't sit and wait for such a thing to happen. Along the way, he almost used various means, wanting to shake off the pursuers behind him.

But whether it was that Xue Guang or the woman suspected to be the Yuan Cha Holy Ancestor, their divine abilities in tracking and hiding were all above his and not below his.

Even if he racked his brains, he could at most shake off the two for half a day, but in the end, they would inevitably catch up again.

This made Han Li curse incessantly in his heart.

If there was only one opponent chasing him, perhaps he could use the other party's carelessness to find a way to escape. But with the two joining forces and complementing each other, this kind of thought could only be a daydream.

And as he approached the direction of Tianyuan City, the interceptions he encountered were clearly becoming more frequent.

"No, this can't go on! Clearly, the other party has grasped his weakness of wanting to return to Tianyuan City, and who knows how many men are arranged to intercept him ahead. If this continues, before he rushes to the vicinity of Tianyuan City, he will first be destroyed by magic power exhaustion. Must change the direction of escape!" Han Li, while mobilizing the remaining magic power in his body to desperately refine the medicinal pills he had just taken, thought with great anxiety.

"Although there must be interceptions in other directions, the strength should be much smaller. However, he can't expose his intentions so blatantly. Must set up a big maze for the people behind, shake off the other party temporarily, to have a chance to catch his breath." Han Li thought, and fiercely thought again.

Han Li made such a determination, and immediately began to bitterly think of specific means.

Not knowing if it was because he was forced, or if it was truly a flash of inspiration, without long, Han Li had an idea in his mind.

In the jade plate behind, the three Blood Light incarnations stood side by side in front of a brand new crystal wall, motionless.

Two of the incarnations closed their eyes, seemingly resting, while the third stared at the picture on the crystal wall without blinking.

The third incarnation suddenly changed his expression, and a light "Eh" sound came from his mouth.

The sound entered the ears of the other two, causing their expressions to change, and their four eyes opened simultaneously!

Only to see in the picture on the crystal wall, Han Li, who had originally transformed into a giant roc, suddenly shook and restored his human form. And after his escape light stopped, he pinched an incantation with both hands, and after his body blurred slightly, he actually transformed into seven or eight identical figures.
