Chapter 2294
"A Grand Ascension stage existence!" Han Li felt a chill in his heart, his escape light converged, and his whole body stopped in place, motionless.
At this time, that terrifying spiritual sense swept back and forth within ten thousand miles nearby several times before it was withdrawn with peace of mind.
For the next period of time, no more abnormalities came from deep within the mountain range.
"This spiritual sense isn't something an ordinary adult Asura Spider can release. Could it be that there really is a powerful Asura Spider here that exceeds the ordinary Grand Ascension stage? If it's such an existence, continuing to approach would likely be impossible to hide from its spiritual sense with ordinary concealment secret techniques. But being able to release spiritual sense this far without any sign of weakening, it should be relying on some kind of amplification treasure." Han Li stood in place without immediately taking action, his heart filled with uncertainty, but his face revealed a trace of solemnity.
If it were truly an existence comparable to a True Spirit, even he couldn't ignore it.
He pondered for a good while before finally making a decision, flipped one hand, and a purple talisman appeared, and with a 'bang', it transformed into clusters of purple energy that wrapped around his body, from which various runes surged out, transforming into a small patch of purple mist.
When the purple energy dissipated silently, the inside became empty. To avoid alerting the enemy, Han Li had actually used a Taiyi Transformation Clearing Talisman again.
At this moment, his body had turned into a void state, and without any further hesitation, he drifted toward the depths of the mountain range.
Although he couldn't open his escape speed fully due to his body being voided, he drifted and swayed, crossing several tens of zhang at a time, entering the mountain range in an instant.
Relying on the wisp of spiritual sense he had left on the young woman, although they were already a thousand miles apart, he could still clearly sense her location.
Therefore, Han Li wasn't in a hurry to shorten the distance for the time being, still following her progress unhurriedly.
However, after he entered the mountain range for over ten thousand miles, he couldn't help but frown subconsciously.
He had originally thought that since the Asura Spider's lair was built here, this mountain range would definitely be exceptionally sparse of other birds and beasts, at least there wouldn't be other too powerful existences.
But as a result, after his spiritual sense quietly swept around, just in this direction area at the edge of the mountain range, he discovered dozens of exotic beasts at the Spirit Severing stage, and two monster birds at the Body Integration stage.
Those two monster birds were one crimson red as fire, its body as giant as an ox, and one covered in gray steel feathers, with an ugly flesh tumor on its head.
The two were standing on a horizontal branch of a giant tree a thousand miles away from him, one looking around with its head held high, the other with its eyes half-open and half-closed, seemingly fallen into a light sleep.
And besides these other exotic beasts, they had respectively transformed into half-human, half-beast forms, divided into several teams patrolling their area. (Uploaded by a netizen)
These exotic beasts of the Small Asura Realm seemed to have all been subdued by the Asura Spiders.
While surprised, Han Li also marveled incessantly.
When the Spirit King and the others talked about Asura Spiders, they had never mentioned that they knew how to recruit other exotic beasts.
It seemed that either the Spirit King and the others had underestimated the intelligence of the Asura Spiders from the start, or these monsters had undergone some mutation in the Small Asura Realm. Otherwise, everything before his eyes would be too bizarre.
Thinking back to that Asura Spider that had transformed earlier, being able to transform into human form at the Spirit Severing stage, the latter possibility was more likely.
Han Li pondered silently. He became even more cautious about the Asura Spiders, but still followed the young woman from afar, without the slightest intention of stopping.
After a full cup of tea's time, Han Li flew a million miles through the mountains, finally seeing a blue stone city rising from the ground in a plain among the mountains from afar.
This city was built entirely of giant blue stones, and the city walls were as high as several hundred zhang, but the area it covered was only a few tens of miles, looking more like a fortress from a distance.
But what was strange was that on those high city walls, besides various blue stone exotic beast statues, it was exceptionally empty, with no human figures standing on them.
What was even more bizarre was that there were no gates at all around this stone city, all surrounded by high city walls, making it impenetrable.
Han Li's blue light flashed in his eyes, and without using his spiritual sense, he looked at everything outside the stone city clearly through a pair of spirit eyes.
But when the blue light in his eyes intensified, wanting to pierce through the city walls and peek at everything inside, countless white runes suddenly emerged in his eyes, and white lotus flowers emerged, actually blocking his gaze.
"Great Transformation White Lotus Barrier! What is going on!"
Han Li gasped, hurriedly withdrew his spirit eyes, and his face revealed a shocked expression again.
The barrier phenomenon he had just seen was clearly a unique barrier method of a famous great clan in the Spirit Realm, which could even temporarily block the spiritual sense of Grand Ascension stage existences; how could these Asura Spiders have set it up?
Before Han Li's shock had faded, a wisp of spiritual sense in his sea of consciousness jumped violently, and his expression immediately sank.
And almost at the same time, in the seemingly quiet stone city, a heaven-shaking sound like a mountain collapsing erupted, and a blood-red spider phantom the size of a mountain suddenly emerged out of thin air.
On this spider Dharma image, the two compound eyes flashing with chilling cold light merely turned slightly, and a terrifying spiritual sense that had appeared once at the edge of the mountain range descended upon this heaven and earth again, instantly sweeping over everything within a radius of ten thousand miles.
Unfortunately, although this spiritual sense was strong, when it swept over Han Li's void body, it still didn't discover any abnormalities, and could only return to the giant Dharma image body without success.
But after discovering no abnormalities, the spider Dharma image faintly revealed a trace of anger, and after a cold snort that was icy to the bone, a hoarse woman's voice came from the stone city:
"Which fellow Daoist has come to my Heaven Spider City! Regardless of your intention in leaving a wisp of spiritual sense on my descendant, now that you are a guest, I welcome you to enter the city for a chat."
The same words echoed through heaven and earth several times, and almost all existences in the mountain range could hear them clearly.
Besides those exotic beasts that had originally submitted to the Asura Spiders, who immediately trembled and prostrated on the ground, it was quiet around the stone city, with no human figures appearing.
"Good, very good. It seems you rely on your superior concealment techniques and are determined to oppose me. In that case, I will wait for you in the city." The woman's voice became sharp, seemingly extremely angry, and then violent fluctuations arose in the high sky, and the giant spider Dharma image dissipated and vanished.
The stone city returned to being exceptionally quiet.
At this time, Han Li stood several hundred miles away, looking at the stone city, his eyes narrowed, and suddenly, after the corners of his mouth moved slightly, his vast spiritual sense was released aggressively, pressing toward the stone city without any concealment.
White light flashed above the stone city, and a giant white lotus phantom emerged, colliding with Han Li's powerful spiritual sense.
'Boom' rumbling muffled sounds exploded continuously in the sky.
Under the pressure of the spiritual sense, the white lotus immediately flashed wildly, twisted and deformed, and burst open on the spot with a loud bang.
The spiritual sense Han Li released was close to seven-tenths of his total, and even if the spiritual sense of three or four ordinary Grand Ascension existences were added together, it would be no more than this.
Even if that Great Transformation White Lotus Barrier was famous in the Spirit Realm, how could it truly withstand such powerful spiritual sense crushing it?
And with the strength of this spiritual sense, if it truly fell into the stone city, besides existences above the Grand Ascension stage, other living beings would likely have their essence souls crushed and perish one after another.
"How bold!"
The hoarse woman's voice from earlier erupted in the stone city in a rage, and at the same time, her spiritual sense also soared into the sky, and in the next moment, it collided heavily with Han Li's spiritual sense.
Thunderous sounds like a clear sky thunderclap exploded deafeningly above the stone city!
A series of violent fluctuations seemed to want to shatter the entire void.
That hoarse woman's spiritual sense was also not something ordinary Grand Ascension existences could compare to, but compared to Han Li's spiritual sense, which had been amplified by the Divine Sense Refining Technique, after only a few collisions, it immediately fell into a disadvantage.
"Old Ghost, you still haven't made a move, what are you waiting for?" The hoarse woman saw this and was naturally shocked and angry, letting out a sharp scream.
Han Li heard this and his pupils shrank.
And almost at the same time, a man's cold snort came from the stone city, and another powerful, strange spiritual sense soared into the sky from a corner of the city, and after merging slightly with the woman's spiritual sense, they jointly resisted Han Li's spiritual sense crushing.
"Also not an ordinary Grand Ascension." After Han Li's spiritual sense exchanged blows with the newly appeared person's spiritual sense, a trace of abnormality finally appeared on his face.
But in the next moment, when Han Li discovered that after the two of them exerted their full strength, they could only barely withstand his spiritual sense crushing, a trace of cold light flashed in his eyes.
He pinched a Dharma seal suddenly, and the released spiritual sense added another two-tenths, reaching nine-tenths of his total.
There was another heaven-collapsing sound in the sky.
The hoarse woman and the other strange Grand Ascension cultivator in the stone city were immediately shocked and lost their color.
The two's spiritual sense, under the pressure of Han Li's enhanced spiritual sense, actually fell into a disadvantage again.
"How is this possible, how could there be such powerful spiritual sense in this world, what is the origin of this person?" The hoarse woman and the other male Grand Ascension cultivator thought with two parts of fear.
Han Li saw this, his expression remained unchanged, but his eyes flashed, and he pondered whether to add the last tenth of his remaining strength to crush the two in the stone city in one go.
After all, spiritual sense confrontation was an extremely dangerous thing, almost second only to a life-and-death struggle using the Nascent Soul directly.
But in the next moment, fluctuations arose in the stone city, and several more spiritual senses equivalent to ordinary Grand Ascension existences soared into the sky, rushing toward Han Li's spiritual sense aggressively.
At this, Han Li's expression couldn't help but change.
