Chapter 2163: Volume 10: The War of the Demon Realm, Chapter 2140: Breaking In
"It is indeed somewhat strange! According to the Long family ancestor and those from the Spirit Race, the cross-boundary passage here should not be valued by the Demon Race. But now that it has become like this, either they didn't tell the truth from the beginning and intended to deceive us, or the Demon Race here encountered some unexpected event and suddenly began to value this place. In my opinion, it is likely the latter."
Han Li also looked at the scene in the bronze mirror and said indifferently.
"How can Senior be so certain?" Zhu Guo'er was startled by Han Li's words just now and asked in surprise.
The Crab Daoist stood to the side with his hands behind his back, looking toward the giant fortress with great interest, actually as if he could ignore the distance and observe everything in the giant fortress directly.
"It's very simple. Although the fortress walls are high, judging from the bricks, they were clearly built in the last ten years or so, and by that time, we had long since entered the Demon Realm. This naturally wasn't a trap set by others." Han Li narrowed his eyes and replied slowly.
"So that's how it is. This junior was careless and didn't notice this point. However, Senior, since there has been an accident here, should we find another passage?" Zhu Guo'er became worried again.
"There is no need! The nearest other space passage would take several months to reach. With such a long time, the possibility of extra trouble is not small. Generally speaking, even such a giant fortress would have at most a few Demon Venerables stationed there; their strength alone cannot stop me from returning. The only trouble is the various magic array restrictions set up around the fortress. If we are delayed by these restrictions even slightly, it truly won't be easy to escape." Han Li looked at the various restriction lights vaguely flickering around the fortress, his brows furrowed as he said.
When they first entered the Demon Realm, it was with more than a dozen Body Integration existences from the Spirit Race and others striking together that they could break through various restrictions in one go and break into the passage. Now that only he remained, plus the fact that the fortress before him was much larger than the one they had broken into before, the magic array restrictions set up were naturally even more mysterious.
Zhu Guo'er could not help but look distressed, but naturally had no good ideas to offer.
"If you feel these magic arrays are somewhat troublesome, I do have a secret technique that can help you break them all instantly." Just at this moment, the Crab Daoist suddenly turned his head and said.
"What, Brother Crab has such divine abilities? If that is truly the case, Han will be deeply grateful." Han Li was naturally overjoyed.
"Gratitude is unnecessary. Casting this technique consumes an extreme amount of Immortal Spiritual Power, and I will exhaust nearly half of the strike opportunities reserved by those previous offerings of yours. Whether you truly want me to strike and help, think it over before deciding." The Crab Daoist replied with an expressionless face.
"That is no problem! I only want to return to the Spirit Realm safely now; consuming those strike opportunities is nothing." Han Li was startled at first, but immediately replied without hesitation.
With that mysterious small bottle in hand, he naturally would not worry about offerings.
"Good, since you have thought it through, I will strike whenever you start your action. Additionally, because this divine ability is too overbearing, for a period of time after I strike, my cultivation base will drop by a whole realm. If I happen to run into other powerful enemies, I can only protect myself and cannot block much for you." The Crab Daoist said a few more words that made Han Li's heart sink.
"Ordinary high-tier demons, I can handle them myself. And Demon Race Ancestors at the Great Ascension stage are not that easy to run into." Han Li thought carefully and replied affirmatively again.
"Since you have thought it through yourself, that's fine!" The Crab Daoist nodded and turned his head, not speaking again.
And after Han Li smiled slightly, he began to carefully plan the specific steps for breaking through.
When the sky finally gradually darkened, white light balls for illumination also lit up on the fortress walls.
Han Li used his spiritual sense to probe the general situation of the fortress from afar again, and finding no major changes compared to the daytime, he stood up immediately and spat out the two words "Action."
The Crab Daoist flicked his large sleeve, and immediately a large patch of silver light sprayed out, wrapping Han Li and Zhu Guo'er nearby, and the three of them disappeared in the silver light.
A short while later, in a void not more than ten miles away from the giant fortress, silver light flashed, and Han Li and the three appeared silently.
As soon as Han Li appeared, he flicked one hand without a word, and the gray flying carriage appeared in front of him again.
Zhu Guo'er flew onto it immediately, while the Crab Daoist sat cross-legged in the void, grabbed into the void with one hand, and unexpectedly held two arrow-shaped magic tools in his hand, then spun them rapidly in his hand, transforming them into golden and silver light clusters.
At the same time, the aura on the Crab Daoist's body converged until it was almost non-existent, but green light flickered on his body, and eerie dark green spiritual patterns appeared, almost covering his entire body, looking extremely strange!
And in the two golden and silver light clusters transformed from the two arrow tools, the sound of Sanskrit chanting began to emerge, and strands of golden and silver light drifted out rapidly, gathering rapidly above his head amidst the flickering.
A golden and silver light ball about a foot in diameter condensed into shape in the air, and continued to expand and grow larger.
With such a great disturbance, the Demon Race guards on the fortress walls naturally discovered it in the first instance. Immediately, after a piercing sound of gongs rang out from a section of the city wall nearby, a team of thirty or forty Demon Race guards flew into the air immediately, flying straight toward Han Li's side.
Seeing this, Han Li narrowed his eyes, but stood in place motionless, without any intention of striking.
As a result, a moment later, this team of Demon Race guards arrived nearby.
The leading demon, who was much taller than the others, shouted from afar:
"Who goes there? Don't you know this is a restricted area and no one is allowed to linger nearby!"
These Demon Race guards all had an aggressive and uncompromising demeanor.
"Restricted area? Not allowed to linger? Apologies, not only do we intend to stay for a while, but we also intend to go up and take a look." Han Li smiled indifferently, swept a glance toward the top of the fortress, and replied nonchalantly.
"What, you actually dare to say that. No, what is that person doing! Eh, your cultivation bases are..." The leading demon was furious upon hearing Han Li's words, but after sweeping his spiritual sense over Han Li and the Crab Daoist, he was shocked.
But before this demon could react, the Crab Daoist's body trembled slightly, and the golden and silver light clusters in front of him disappeared into the void silently, while the huge golden and silver light ball above his head exploded with a 'Boom' sound!
Countless golden and silver light spots shot out from the exploded giant light ball, unexpectedly being golden and silver symbols the size of beans.
These symbols were dense and numerous, as if they were rain, tearing through the sky, actually illuminating half the sky, and shooting toward the fortress in a overwhelming manner.
The team of Demon Race guards in the air not far ahead bore the brunt, and after screams rang out, they were instantly riddled with holes by the light rain, and then turned into wisps of green smoke and disappeared out of thin air.
As for the void within ten miles of the fortress, under the impact of this light rain, layers of magic array restrictions appeared simultaneously, causing the void to fluctuate violently and become colorful.
And those golden and silver symbols did not know what kind of unimaginable power they possessed; wherever the light rain passed, these magic array restrictions actually dissolved and were pierced through instantly like dry grass, and in just a few breaths, the sky full of restrictions became incomplete, unable to preserve the integrity of any magic array.
And after releasing the golden and silver light ball, the Crab Daoist's face turned pale several times, and the aura on his body decreased by a third, actually becoming just as he had said beforehand, his strength dropping out of the Great Ascension realm.
"Let's go!"
Seeing this scene, Han Li spat out a low shout without hesitation, and after a flash, he entered the flying carriage.
The Crab Daoist stood up... and after a large step, his body appeared in the flying carriage with a blur.
Han Li took a deep breath, his body surrounded by green light, mobilized all the magic power in his body, and at the same time formed a hand seal with one hand, spitting out the word "Speed."
The flying carriage trembled slightly, emitted a piercing explosion, and shot out, transformed into a streak of green light.
The escape speed was so fast that it seemed one could only see a faint green shadow flash through the void.
The remaining restrictions near the fortress clearly could not block the green shadow at all, and after a few flashes, it flew to the sky above the fortress and shot straight toward the pitch-black demonic clouds in the high sky.
The entire fortress was naturally in chaos, and countless flying carriages and soldiers flew into the air, but with the strength of ordinary demons at this time, even half of them had not discovered the existence of Han Li and the others. Only those high-tier demons at the Spirit Transformation or Void Refinement stages discovered the existence of the flying carriage, and in shock and anger, they flew to intercept it, but in terms of escape speed, how could they intercept the flying carriage under Han Li's full mobilization?
And just at this moment, several powerful auras suddenly flew into the air from within the fortress, followed by a cluster of green flames, a gust of black wind, and two dazzling blood-red streaks of light shooting out from different corners of the fortress.
Clearly, those few Demon Venerable-level demons stationed here had finally struck.
But Han Li turned a blind eye to all of this. As the flying carriage shot out, in the blink of an eye, it arrived before the pitch-black demonic clouds in the high sky, and without hesitation, rubbed both hands together and struck toward the high sky!
A sound of thunder rang out!
Countless golden thunder balls surged from his two hands, and disappeared into the black clouds in a flash.
The next moment, earth-shattering roars rang out continuously in the clouds, and countless golden electric snakes flickered and appeared!
And the seemingly thick demonic clouds, under the flickering of these golden electric arcs, actually had not the slightest power to resist, and after a slight contact, they dissolved and melted, clearing a large empty void. (To be continued)
