Chapter 2111: Volume 10: Battle of the Demon Realm, Chapter 286: Crystallization of Spiritual Energy

After Saintess Qianqiu, Bai Qi, and the old scholar saw the giant island, they could not hide their excitement, but after exchanging inexplicable glances, their expressions returned to normal.

"Let's go; our trip is finally about to have a result. I hope the Spirit Cleansing Pool and the Spirit Purifying Lotus are as miraculous as the legends say!" Han Li's eyes flickered a few times before he spoke abruptly.

"That's right; those heaven-defying treasures are now within reach. What are we waiting for?" The Long Family Ancestor laughed loudly, his body's escape light rising, and he was the first to transform into a golden streak of light, flying toward the giant island.

Elder Hui also transformed into a violent wind and chased after him without a word.

"Let's go too."

Saintess Qianqiu said in a low voice, putting away the giant ship. She flipped her hand to take out a purple banner, and after shaking it lightly, she wrapped the Spirit Race members in a sheet of colorful light, transforming into a ball of purple light and breaking through the air.

Once they entered this sea area filled with spiritual energy, they could naturally use various escape techniques without restraint.

In the blink of an eye, only Han Li and the young lady in feathered robes remained on the sea surface.

Seeing this, the young lady glanced sideways at Han Li before the corners of her mouth curled into a light laugh:

"Brother Han, the spirit objects are right before our eyes now. Do you have any plans?"

"What plans? Didn't we already agree? The Spirit Pool will be shared, and no matter how many Spirit Purifying Lotuses we find, they will all be split equally," Han Li replied with an unchanging expression.

"If the others are truly willing to act according to their promises, I naturally wish for that as well. But what if other accidents occur?" The young lady's beautiful eyes darted a few times, and she said with a light breath.

"Rest assured, Fairy! If there are any accidents, you and I will naturally advance and retreat together, just as we agreed earlier," Han Li replied calmly after a moment of silence.

"Good, I knew Brother Han was a man of his word. Let's set off as well. Although this island is not small, with their divine abilities, finding the Spirit Cleansing Pool shouldn't take much time," the young lady in feathered robes said with a smile, her heart relaxing.

Han Li nodded silently and said nothing. With a flick of his sleeve, his body released cyan spiritual light and soared into the sky. After circling slightly, he transformed into a streak of cyan light and shot straight toward the giant island.

As for the young lady in feathered robes, she pinched a spell seal with one hand, and the five-colored feathered robes she was wearing surged with balls of five-colored clouds, lifting her delicate body into the sky as well.

Han Li did not urge his escape light to the limit, merely following at a short distance behind the Spirit Race members and the Long Family Ancestor's group.

Although he did not know the specific location of the Spirit Cleansing Pool, seeing the anxious appearance of the two groups ahead, it was clear they had a plan in mind.

After a cup of tea's time, the group flew over a plain and several dense forests, and finally, clusters of peaks appeared ahead, each one towering and beautiful, emitting the fresh fragrance of grass and trees.

The Long Family Ancestor and the Spirit Race members suddenly stopped their escape lights ahead and appeared one after another.

Han Li's heart moved, and his escape speed accelerated several times, appearing beside the Long Family Ancestor in a flash.

With a flash of five-colored light, the young lady in feathered robes also appeared silently beside Han Li.

At this moment, a clear distance had opened up between the Spirit Race members and Han Li's group, vaguely creating a situation where they kept to their own sides.

Clearly, with the spirit objects within reach, although there were no hostile actions between the two races, they couldn't help but develop a sense of precaution.

After all, it involved heaven-defying treasures like the Spirit Cleansing Pool; everyone was afraid the other side would harbor ulterior motives. Not to mention, the two sides were fundamentally not of the same race.

But on the surface, neither the Long Family Ancestor nor Saintess Qianqiu showed any abnormalities. Instead, after discussing in low voices while looking at the mountains ahead, the two sides took action together.

The Long Family Ancestor rolled his sleeve, and after a flash of golden light in his hand, a golden axe appeared, its surface covered in pale silver talisman markings, with a hint of astonishing baleful aura contained within.

Saintess Qianqiu chanted incantations, her body releasing milky white spiritual light. After opening her mouth, she spat out a milky white round bead, the size of a chicken egg, covered in blood-like demon markings.

Seeing this, Han Li's heart moved. He narrowed his eyes and stared at their actions without blinking.

These two really had some tricks up their sleeves, having hidden them all along.

As a result, he saw Saintess Qianqiu point at the round bead, and the object immediately hummed and shot toward the mountains, stopping above one of the peaks after a few flashes, flickering on and off.

"Fellow Daoist Long, it's right there!" Seeing this, Saintess Qianqiu's eyes brightened, and she hurriedly shouted.

Upon hearing this, the Long Family Ancestor let out a loud shout without hesitation. After a flash of golden light on his body, golden scales appeared, covering most of his body. At the same time, his figure expanded, and a pair of golden dragon horns grew from the top of his head.

He was mobilizing his true blood to activate his half-dragon body.

The Long Family Ancestor, whose figure had expanded to five or six zhang, shook his axe, and the golden axe rapidly enlarged, finally transforming into a ten-zhang-long giant axe.

The Long Family Ancestor held the giant axe with both hands and slashed fiercely toward the mountain peak where the round bead was suspended.

A piercing, sharp ringing sound erupted!

A sheet of golden light swept out from the giant axe, and after a flash, it transformed into a giant axe shadow nearly a thousand zhang long, slashing down onto the distant mountain peak like a hurricane.

After a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering loud sound, a golden sun a hundred zhang in diameter erupted on the mountain peak, instantly swallowing the entire peak. Streams of golden waves rolled out from the sun, and when nearby mountain peaks were affected, they instantly vanished into dust.

And just then, a strong fluctuation emerged in the golden light, spreading through the void within a hundred-mile radius.

An astonishing scene appeared.

Wherever the fluctuation passed, the void at the mountain peak rippled like water. Then, the golden light converged, the scenery blurred, and behind the destroyed mountain peaks, two taller emerald green giant peaks appeared abruptly.

And between the two mountain peaks, there was a mountain valley shrouded in emerald green spiritual light.

Looking from afar, a thick, milky white light pillar rose from the valley into the sky, disappearing into the void as if it reached beyond the nine heavens.

"Spirit Heaven Pillar! The Spirit Cleansing Pool is indeed there!" Seeing the mountain valley and the silver light pillar, the Long Family Ancestor laughed wildly and shot toward it as a long rainbow without a word.

Elder Hui also chased after him with great joy.

Seeing this, Saintess Qianqiu's face could not hide her excitement, but after glancing at the escape lights of the Long Family Ancestor and the other, her gaze sank, and a hand hidden in her sleeve suddenly pinched a bizarre spell seal silently.

The Spirit Race youth standing motionless behind her suddenly had a flash of brilliance in his originally expressionless eyes, and his hanging, pale hands actually trembled slightly.

But the next moment, a cold voice rang in Saintess Qianqiu's ears. Although it was only a few sentences, it made her heart tighten, and the spell seal in her hand immediately dissipated.

The brilliance in the Spirit Race youth's eyes faded, and he returned to his original wooden state.

Just as Saintess Qianqiu had quietly finished all this, she suddenly sensed something and turned her head to look to the side. As a result, she saw Han Li looking at her with his hands behind his back, a smile that was not a smile on his face.

Saintess Qianqiu was startled. As her thoughts raced, just as she was about to say something, Bai Qi's cold voice rang out from the side:

"Brother Han, Fellow Daoist Long has already rushed over. Why haven't you set off? Aren't you afraid the treasures will be taken first?"

"Hehe, Brother Han is quite trusting of Brother Long. Fellow Daoist, rest assured; even if the Spirit Cleansing Pool is found, it won't be that easy to enter," Bai Qi said with a cold laugh.

"Indeed. Let's go over together and help Brother Long. After all, this is still the Demon Realm; if the treasures can be obtained sooner, it's better to do so. To prevent long delays!" The young lady in feathered robes darted her eyes a few times and said with a laugh.

"Naturally. If we want to enter the Spirit Cleansing Pool, we will have to continue working together," Bai Qi nodded expressionlessly. At this moment, Saintess Qianqiu no longer said anything, as if the leader of the Spirit Race side had suddenly changed to this mysterious Holy Spirit in white light.

Thus, the Spirit Race and Han Li's group once again rose into the air and flew toward the mountain valley.

This distance naturally meant nothing to the Body Integration existences.

However, after a few flashes, the group followed the Long Family Ancestor and the other, merging into the green light shrouding the mountain valley.

Somewhat beyond Han Li's expectations, the green light did not block them in the slightest; with a flash, they easily merged into the green light.

But the next moment, Han Li felt his eyes brighten, and he found himself in a world of five-colored brilliance. Wherever he looked, there were dense five-colored light spots.

Han Li's expression changed. Without thinking, he grabbed into the void with one hand, and several bean-sized light spots immediately merged into his palm. After a flash, they condensed into a small five-colored crystal grain the size of a bean.

As he took a breath and absorbed it, streams of pure spiritual energy surged from the crystal grain, making his entire body feel incomparably comfortable.

"Crystallization of spiritual energy! The spiritual energy of heaven and earth here is actually ten times purer than outside!" Han Li muttered, unable to hide the look of shock on his face.

At this moment, the group of people landed one after another toward an emerald green pond in the middle of the mountain valley.

The five-colored light spots floating above the pond were clearly much denser than in other places, and the Long Family Ancestor and Elder Hui were standing quietly by the pond, discussing something with furrowed brows.

"Could this be the Spirit Cleansing Pool?"

Seeing this, Han Li's heart jumped, and he slowly landed nearby as well.

At the same time, on another small mountain several hundred miles away from the mountain valley, a beautiful figure wearing a white dress was standing quietly on a piece of bluestone, looking faintly toward the mountain valley, while a pair of star-like beautiful eyes flashed with mysterious silver light.

Behind the white-clothed figure, a burly man in black armor stood quietly with his hands at his sides. ===== CHAPTER 2112 =====
