Volume Eleven: The Descent of the True Immortal, Chapter 2259: Demon Cultivator Huashi

The purple-gold tiny figure unexpectedly fell into a coma and could not wake up for a while.

Crystal light flashed between Han Li's brows, and his black magic eyes dispersed and disappeared. He swept a glance at the purple-gold tiny figure on the ground with a trace of strangeness on his face and let out a light breath:

"I knew long ago that after this little thing evolved into an Insect King, the original restrictions I placed would definitely not be very useful. Fortunately, before those three quasi-Insect Kings devoured each other, I had already planted other backhands, otherwise, it would truly have been a headache to control this advanced Insect King. However, for the sake of safety, it seems I can only use secret techniques to refine it again now."

Just as Han Li finished muttering, he shook one of his sleeves, and over a hundred dense banner flags flew out together. With a wild flash, they unexpectedly formed a formation several zhang in size within the secret room.

At the center of the formation was shockingly the unconscious purple-gold tiny figure.

Han Li muttered words while casting several magic arts with his hands in succession, all of which flashed and submerged into the formation.

With a few "puchi" sounds, countless five-colored fine threads sprayed out from around the formation, and as they quickly wound toward the center, they bound the purple-gold tiny figure tightly.

Then Han Li opened his mouth again, and several more balls of essence blood sprayed out, spinning and transforming into blood characters, shooting toward the purple-gold tiny figure.

At the same time, the entire formation hummed loudly, and bursts of light flames surged out, also rolling toward the center...

I don't know how much time passed, but the secret room door opened, and Han Li walked out from inside with a smile on his face.

Obviously, this refining of the Gold-Devouring Insect King must have been very successful.

A month later, Qi Lingzi and Bai Guo'er bid farewell to Han Li and embarked on a journey to travel through the wild world.

More than ten days later, Han Li also left the Holy Island with Lady Yin Yue and Zhu Guo'er, and boarded the Mo Ling Holy Boat, galloping all the way toward the Demon Race territory.

In the blink of an eye, more than half a month passed.

On the way, the Mo Ling Holy Boat naturally encountered quite a few Demon Race members.

But no matter how high or low their rank was, as soon as these Demon Race members saw the mountain-like size of the Mo Ling Holy Boat and the astonishingly powerful magic crystal puppets standing on the deck from afar, they were naturally terrified and hid as far away as they could.

But not long after, when Han Li's flying boat passed over an inner sea, it disturbed an unknown demon cultivator who was meditating in the depths of the sea.

This aquatic demon cultivator probably had the cultivation base of the early Body Integration stage.

After moving its cave dwelling here more than ten thousand years ago and forcibly driving away several other not-so-weak demon tribes, it regarded this inner sea, which was quite rich in resources, as its own territory.

Although this demon's temper had always been extremely irritable, its strength was considered extremely high among the demon race, and coupled with possessing several extraordinary treasures, even the few other demon cultivators of the same rank were mostly unwilling to provoke it.

Therefore, for the past ten thousand years, no matter which demon tribe wanted to operate in this sea, most would first greet it before doing so.

But on this day, when this demon cultivator was refining a furnace of medicinal pills that were extremely important to it in the secret room of its undersea cave dwelling, a burst of alarm shrieks suddenly came from outside the secret room.

The demon was caught off guard and its mind was disturbed, and it was startled. The cyan demon flames it was driving with the jade fan in its hand grew by three points.

With a "Boom" sound!

The white crystal jade cauldron several feet high in front of it flashed a few times, and a burnt smell immediately wafted out.

Seeing this, the Body Integration stage demon cultivator let out a low roar of rage. After its ferocious expression changed several times, it didn't even bother to take a close look at the alarm formation outside the secret room. It shook its sleeve, transformed into a white light, and escaped from the secret room, shooting straight toward the sea surface.

The materials for that furnace of medicinal pills were extremely rare, and it had spent a great deal of effort to collect them for this one refining.

Now that it was destroyed like this, while feeling pained and regretful, it naturally directed the wild rage in its heart directly at the culprit who caused this.

Although it hadn't seen the person who triggered the alarm restriction on the sea surface, it had already viciously thought in its heart:

"If these people have some background or backing, that's fine; as long as they can compensate for the loss, a big matter can be reduced to a small one. If they don't, I'll have to grind them to dust to avenge this furnace of medicinal pills."

This demon cultivator, being of the aquatic race, had an extremely fast water-escape technique. With just a few flashes, it stepped on a cyan water python and reached the sea surface. The moment it broke through the water, it first let out a roar of rage:

"Where did you juniors come from, daring to ruin the good deeds of your Old Ancestor Huashi? Hurry up and surrender, and wait for your Old Ancestor to deal with you! Ah, you are..."

This demon cultivator, wearing half-body fish-scale armor, had just appeared in the high sky with the cyan python under its feet. After raising its head and sweeping a vicious glance forward, it was stunned in an instant.

It saw that in the high sky several hundred zhang above its position, a mountain-like black giant boat was slowly flying from the distance, and the densely packed puppet soldiers standing on the giant boat made its heart jump with fear.

Among these puppets, there were shockingly several that emitted auras that seemed to be even above its own.

The harsh words that had reached the throat of this demon were immediately swallowed back with a gulp.

"Ah, a misunderstanding. Hua recognized the wrong person, I dare not disturb your journey, I will withdraw first." The demon's reaction was not slow. After its eyeballs rolled around quickly, it immediately changed to a face full of smiles and apologized, while the cyan giant python under its feet moved, bringing it to silently retreat toward the sea surface below.

"Wait, so you are that Old Ancestor Huashi! Very good, we were just looking for a local snake familiar with this area. You stay for a while!"

This voice was pleasant and melodious; it was shockingly Lady Yin Yue's voice.

As soon as the voice fell!

Fluctuations arose on the black giant boat, and four puppets with auras not inferior to the aquatic demon cultivator soared into the sky with bare hands and flew straight toward the demon.

Seeing this, Old Ancestor Huashi's expression changed greatly. It stepped on the cyan giant python and, without hesitation, transformed into a ball of white light and shot downward.

At the same time, it released several protective magic treasures in one breath.

But just at this moment, the four magic crystal puppets let out a long whistle, and eight palms pressed into the void toward Old Ancestor Huashi at the same time. A few "Pu Pu" explosion sounds came!

The demon cultivator's several protective magic treasures unexpectedly shattered into dots of fluorescent light under the rolling invisible giant force.

This Old Ancestor Huashi and the cyan python felt the surrounding air tighten, and their bodies sank, unable to move a single bit, directly being forcibly trapped in mid-air.

Old Ancestor Huashi's face turned pale, and it could only watch helplessly as the four puppets flew over.

One of the puppets moved its arm, lifted it and the python together, turned around, and flew back to the black giant boat.

After a while, in the hall on the highest floor of the Mo Ling Holy Boat, it finally saw Han Li sitting on the master's chair.

Zhu Guo'er and Lady Yin Yue were naturally standing on the side.

With a "Thud" sound!

The puppet loosened its five fingers and threw Old Ancestor Huashi and the python heavily onto the deck, then exited the hall expressionlessly.

Although Old Ancestor Huashi's body regained its freedom for a time, its internal true essence had been tampered with by those puppets, and its entire body's magic power became stagnant and ineffective.

Coupled with the fact that Lady Yin Yue's aura was even stronger than its own, and Han Li's spiritual pressure was even more unfathomable, it gave it a terrifying feeling of being unfathomable.

As a result, even though this aquatic demon cultivator was filled with shock and rage, it dared not have any resistance, but instead smiled bitterly, bowed deeply to Han Li, and said honestly:

"I am Huashi, I pay my respects to the few Daoists. I don't know what you need me to do by detaining me."

Han Li looked at this Body Integration stage demon cultivator for a few moments, revealing a smile that was not a smile on his face, but he did not answer immediately.

It was Lady Yin Yue on the side who, after her eyes flowed, asked with a light smile:

"You are quite sensible now. At the beginning, why didn't you listen to our words, but instead wanted to run away?"

"Daoist, you are mocking me; Hua was just acting out of subconscious self-preservation. After all, you all look extremely powerful, so I naturally had to retreat quickly." Old Ancestor Huashi said somewhat embarrassedly, stealing glances at Han Li from time to time, looking extremely careful.

"Hmph, but the momentum you had when you first appeared didn't look like you were just protecting yourself. Could it be that you originally wanted to find trouble for us?" Lady Yin Yue snorted, her face suddenly straightening, and her voice becoming extremely cold.

"I absolutely had no intention of targeting you, it's just... I was just confused for a moment, mistakenly thinking you were some juniors passing by, which is why I was a bit reckless." Old Ancestor Huashi broke into a sweat and explained hurriedly.

Lady Yin Yue giggled and stopped speaking.

Han Li, who had been sitting on the chair, then spoke indifferently:

"I don't care what your original intentions were. But since you dared to provoke us first, you must help me do something before I can let you leave. Otherwise, a heavy punishment will naturally be unavoidable."

Upon hearing this, Old Ancestor Huashi felt bitter in his heart, but at this point, he naturally dared not say a single "no" word, and could only force a smile: "Rest assured! Whatever you want Hua to do, as long as I can do it, I will definitely do my best. But I don't know, what exactly is the matter?"

"You don't need to worry, the task is very simple. Just help me find a place. I heard there seems to be a remnant altar left over from ancient times here, but it seems to move on its own, drifting and uncertain. Is this true?" Han Li said with a faint smile.

"So you are looking for that Sinan Four Directions Altar. I really do know something about this. However, finding this thing mostly depends on some luck. All I can do is take you to a few places where this altar often appears." Upon hearing this, Old Ancestor Huashi felt relieved and replied hurriedly.

"That's good, then take us to these few places first." Han Li said without thinking.

Zhu Guo'er, who was on the side, heard this conversation and could not help but have her eyes light up!

(I've been taking care of my baby these past few days and was almost exhausted, but my heart has been happy! Hehe, I'm starting to update again today!)
