Chapter 2291

Three green, scorching suns were hanging high in the sky. (Uploaded by a netizen)

One large and two small.

The large one hung in the center of the sky, while the smaller ones were located on the east and west sides; both their size and radiance were far inferior to the sun in the middle.

But this was not the reason for Han Li's astonishment; what made him vigilant were the clusters of blood-red rays of light swirling around the three green suns.

These vivid, dripping rays of light floated quietly near the green suns, and from a distance, they gave one a sense of beauty that could steal one's soul.

After Han Li squinted his eyes and watched these bright red rays for a good while, his nose suddenly twitched, and he faintly smelled a sweet, honey-like fragrance from his nostrils.

Han Li's expression sank, and he flicked one of his sleeves without the slightest warning.

With a 'whoosh', a streak of green light over ten zhang long shot out, and after a flash, it transformed into a long rainbow and disappeared into the dense forest.

The next moment, a heaven-shaking roar came from the direction where the green light had vanished.

Then, the nearby earth shook violently, and there was no more sound.

Han Li stood where he was, unmoved, merely looking indifferently in the direction the roar had come from.

A moment later, the green light flashed and shot back from the dense forest, and after a blur, it dove into his sleeve and vanished without a trace.

Only then did Han Li move his body, flying lightly toward that side.

For Han Li, the journey of several tens of miles was naturally covered in an instant.

He saw a colossal monster, several hundred zhang in length, lying dead amidst a patch of collapsed white trees.

This giant monster looked like both an insect and a beast; its body had been severed into several pieces, but one could still see the cicada wings and antennae common to demonic insects, as well as the fur and sharp claws possessed only by beasts.

From a distance, this thing looked like a bizarre monster that was a fusion of a giant bee and a rhinoceros.

Its collapsed, massive body was emitting the same sweet fragrance Han Li had smelled earlier. Only at such a close distance, it was exceptionally intense.

Han Li swept his gaze around and discovered that both the wild grass on the ground and the surrounding white trees were withering at a visible, rapid speed. In an instant, they turned a scorched yellow.

Near the beast's corpse, the ground was littered with watermelon-sized, mantis-like strange insects, but they were pitch black and had long since lost all signs of life.

"This monster's toxicity is quite significant; even if an ordinary person were a hundred miles away, they would likely be poisoned to death directly by its aura." After circling the monster's corpse twice, Han Li muttered to himself.

This monster's appearance was extremely bizarre, but he could not identify its origins; it was most likely a rare exotic beast from the Asura Realm.

Thinking this, Han Li flicked his finger toward the ground.

With a 'puchi', a cluster of silver fire beads shot out, and with a flash, it landed on the giant monster's body.

With a 'boom', the rolling silver flames instantly engulfed the monster's corpse, reducing it to nothingness out of thin air.

After finishing this, Han Li calmly flipped one hand, took out an egg-sized white crystal ball, glanced at it, and frowned slightly.

There was not the slightest abnormality on the crystal ball; clearly, Mo Jianli was too far away for him to sense it.

Since that was the case, the two of them did not need to rush to gather together; they should each seek their own opportunities first.

Ten or so days was neither long nor short.

Having made his decision, Han Li identified a direction, then his escape light rose, transforming into a green rainbow over ten zhang long that tore through the air and flew away.

However, his escape light was not very fast, and he was only flying at an altitude of several hundred zhang.

After all, coming to the Small Asura Realm this time was not for traveling, but specifically for treasure hunting.

While flying, Han Li released his vast spiritual sense, shrouding everything within a radius of three to four thousand miles under it.

With the strength of his spiritual sense, shrouding over a hundred thousand miles at once would normally be an easy task, but now that he needed to focus on every minute detail, and even delve his spiritual sense several hundred zhang deep underground, he naturally had to significantly shrink the range.

Powerful spider-like existences mostly liked to live deep underground.

Under such circumstances, being able to probe such a large area at once was the result of Han Li's spiritual sense being far stronger than that of ordinary Grand Ascension stage cultivators.

If it were Mo Jianli or Xue Ran and the others, being able to focus on all signs above and below ground within a few hundred miles would be considered quite good.

This was also the main reason why he remained very confident in this trip, even though he lacked bloodline abilities related to Asura Spiders.

As for Mo Jianli, he seemed to have some confidence in finding that Asura Spider as well, so he should also have some special means of searching.

Han Li thought this to himself, while his spiritual sense almost instantly swept over every inch of the thousands of miles, and his escape light gradually drifted away.

In another part of the space, the white light in Mo Jianli's hand converged, and a crystalline jade sword was restored from the sky full of sword shadows.

And in a pile of rubble over a hundred zhang ahead, several tiger-headed, scorpion-tailed monsters lay in pools of blood, all split in two.

Mo Jianli swept his gaze over these beast corpses, put away the jade sword, and opened his mouth to spit out a pale purple light cluster.

Inside the light cluster was a purple banner several inches tall.

Without a word, Mo Jianli raised his arm, pointed at the small banner, and spat out the word "Rise".

Immediately, the small banner gave a muffled sound, rapidly grew larger amidst flashing purple light, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a giant banner over a zhang tall.

When this banner was small, one couldn't see anything peculiar about it, but now that it was giant, one could truly see its extraordinariness.

Purple banner surface, golden banner pole!

The surface was inscribed with dense, various runes, and in the center, there was a faint phantom of a pale silver two-headed spider.

Mo Jianli chanted incantations, his ten fingers flicking incessantly, and streaks of Dharma techniques flashed and vanished into the banner.

And the silver spider figure on the banner gradually became clear.

Seeing this, Mo Jianli couldn't help but reveal a smile.

Although he lacked bloodline related to Asura Spiders, this exotic treasure, the 'Disc-Spinning Banner', which he had obtained unintentionally in his early years, possessed the essence soul of a Silver Steel Spider as an artifact spirit, which could similarly sense powerful spider types within a certain range.

Even if its effect was not as good as the bloodlines possessed by Xue Ran and the other, it shouldn't be too far off.

It was just that he didn't know if that Asura Spider was truly as terrifying as the rumors said; even if he found it, he likely wouldn't be able to easily kill it with his ability.

Mo Jianli pondered silently, his hand techniques moving like a spinning wheel without stopping for a moment.

Suddenly, the silver spider phantom on the banner let out a hiss, and its body disintegrated into specks of spiritual light.

"Not here; it seems I have to go elsewhere to look." Mo Jianli stopped his hand techniques and muttered, not revealing the slightest disappointment.

This was no wonder!

This place was not too far from where he had been teleported in, and he hadn't held out hope of finding that Asura Spider so quickly from the start.

Mo Jianli immediately swept his sleeve at the banner, causing its light to flash and shrink back to its original size, then opened his mouth to inhale, sucking the treasure back into his abdomen.

Then, rays of light swirled around the old man's body, and he soared into the air and flew toward the distance.

"It seems our brothers have good luck; as soon as we were teleported into this realm, our bloodlines immediately reacted. It seems this trip should truly have quite a harvest." Heilin was flying underground over a hundred zhang deep with yellow light flashing all over his body, his face full of excitement.

Not far away was the calm-looking Xue Ran.

"I also didn't expect this to happen, but there's no need to be happy too early. Even if the bloodline has reacted, it's not necessarily that Asura Spider; it might be other spider existences. According to rumors, there are quite a few types of spiders in the Asura Realm." Xue Ran was also shrouded in a layer of yellow light, saying calmly.

"I naturally know this, but after all, there is still a certain possibility, isn't there!" Heilin looked unconcerned.

Xue Ran smiled and said nothing more.

A moment later, the two of them froze, suddenly rushing out from the soil and appearing in a pitch-black cave...

A cup of tea's time later, Xue Ran and the other were floating side by side in the void a few feet off the ground, the ground covered in black blood.

Four human-sized, emerald-green spiders covered in sharp spikes lay quietly in the pool of blood.

"You were right, it really wasn't an Asura Spider; what a waste of happiness!" Heilin gave a bitter smile and said somewhat helplessly.

"This is normal! Although the Small Asura Realm isn't very large, the possibility of finding an Asura Spider as soon as one enters is not high to begin with. Being able to obtain a few good materials this time isn't a wasted effort." Xue Ran said calmly, reaching out to grab at the void not far away.

A sound of tearing through the air rang out!

Two pale yellow stones flew out from the soil and landed steadily in his hand.

"Hmm, at least we won't return empty-handed. But time is of the essence; we'd better leave immediately." Hearing this, Heilin's spirits lifted.

"Naturally!"

Xue Ran naturally had no reason to disagree.

Yellow light flashed on their bodies, and they transformed into two streaks of light again, diving into the soil and rock above their heads.

Han Li floated expressionlessly above a small mountain, and beneath the dense crowd opposite him was a patch of blood-red bats.

Each of these bats was the size of a human head, their fangs fully exposed, and when a pair of bat wings were spread, they looked to be seven or eight feet long.

And in the center of these blood-colored bats was a giant bat whose body size was clearly several times larger than the other blood bats.

Not only was its body covered in pale golden patterns, but it also had a third blood-red demonic eye on its forehead.

This demonic creature's three eyes rolled around incessantly, and the gaze it cast at Han Li faintly held a trace of anthropomorphic shock and suspicion.

Han Li floated motionless high above the small mountain with his hands behind his back, but he didn't look at the bat swarm opposite him at all, merely continuing to probe other places rapidly with his spiritual sense.

As time passed bit by bit, the shock and suspicion on the giant bat's face gradually disappeared, and a ferocious, tyrannical look began to appear.

After another moment, the giant bat finally couldn't hold back; as its mouth moved, a silent wave suddenly erupted from it.

The ordinary blood bats nearby heard this and immediately became restless; as each of them opened their mouths, silent waves were also sprayed out, gathering together in front of the bat swarm in an instant, transforming into a rolling, transparent giant wave that surged toward Han Li.
