Chapter 2297: Volume 11: The True Immortal Descends to the World, Chapter 2278: Che Qizi
Han Li flicked his sleeve again casually and pointed a finger toward the bottom in the void.
"Puchi!"
The green rope transformed into something like a thin thread, then tightened suddenly.
The giant turtle beast was scattered into countless fragments of flesh.
Just at this moment, fluctuations arose on the lake surface, and a crystalline white alms bowl appeared silently, spinning and transforming into a behemoth of an acre in size.
After the turtle beast's flesh fell from the air, every single piece fell into it.
Han Li beckoned with one hand again.
The white alms bowl flashed with light, shot toward him, and blurred in mid-air, returning to its original size.
Han Li grabbed with five fingers in the void, and the alms bowl landed steadily in his palm.
He swept his spiritual sense into it unhurriedly, and after a moment, revealed an extremely satisfied expression.
Sure enough, with its massive body, although this Xuanwu True Blood bloodline wasn't very concentrated, after refining it, it was enough for the Awakening Technique's cultivation.
Han Li flipped his hand, and the jade bowl flashed and was stored in his storage bracelet. Only then did he sweep a glance at the golden water grass, and after thinking about it, raised his hand and grabbed it.
This grass didn't have much use for him, but it was extremely rare for some exotic beasts; otherwise, all the powerful exotic beasts nearby wouldn't have been attracted, leading to such a tragic fight for it.
If he encountered the right person, it would be a good trading item.
Han Li released another mass of silver flames, burning all the exotic beast corpses on the lake surface to ash, and with threads of light flashing over his body, he looked as if he were about to leave.
But just at this moment, a low buzzing sound came from his body.
Han Li was stunned for a moment, but immediately revealed a smile at the corners of his mouth, and flipped his hand. A white crystal ball the size of a chicken egg appeared in his palm.
The crystal ball's surface had light halos flowing incessantly. Looking closely, one could see light spots the size of rice grains flashing inside.
Han Li stared at the crystal ball for a moment, then stomped his foot, transformed into a green rainbow, and flew away.
The direction he went was completely different from before.
Almost at the same time, in the sky above a wasteland several million miles away from Han Li. A piercing white light was shooting away at an incredible speed in the high sky.
Ten-plus miles behind the white light, a thunderous sound shook the sky, and a blue-green mist sea that almost connected the entire heaven and earth rolled over, its speed not inferior to the white light at all, even vaguely faster by a fraction.
The two, one in front and one behind, crossed ten thousand miles in an instant.
Not long after, the distance between the two narrowed to within ten miles.
At this moment, a low, sinister laugh came from the blue-green mist. The mist at the front churned violently. Suddenly, it condensed, transforming into a giant emerald-green scorpion and a pale blue giant toad phantom.
The scorpion phantom merely lashed its giant hooked tail, and a dark green light pillar shot out from it.
The other blue giant toad phantom. Opened its mouth wide. The heaven and earth within a few miles suddenly darkened, and the void ahead tightened suddenly, vaguely being restrained by a mysterious force, causing the white light's escape speed to slow down by more than half.
In this way, the dark green light pillar flashed and arrived silently behind the white light, about to strike it heavily.
But at this moment, an angry shout came from the white light, and suddenly countless five-colored runes rolled out from within. After a violent vibration, it actually broke free from the void-restraining force.
A clear-sky lightning bolt!
A crimson electric arc shot out from the white light, striking the dark green light pillar.
This seemingly unremarkable strike actually caused the light pillar to disperse with a muffled sound.
At the same time, several urgent incantations came from the white light, which suddenly trembled, and the white light vanished from its original place.
The next moment, fluctuations arose in the void ten-plus miles away, and the mass of white light condensed and appeared again.
Only then could it finally be seen clearly.
In the white light was the figure of an old man, holding a small white flag in one hand and a small deep-red hammer in the other.
It was Mo Jianli, this human Great Ascension.
However, at this moment, Mo Jianli had half his body entangled in threads of unknown green energy, and the other half covered in a layer of strange blue ice. His face carried a trace of solemnity, but he merely glanced at the mist sea behind him and continued to urge his escape light without hesitation, flying away like lightning.
The giant scorpion and toad phantoms behind dissipated and vanished. The blue-green mist continued to roll and chase relentlessly. Just like this, almost every once in a while, Mo Jianli in the white light would be caught up to by the mist, forced to frequently urge the two exotic treasures in his hands, releasing red lightning, to barely repel the attacks of the phantoms in the mist and reopen some distance.
And this kind of chase and entanglement had lasted for a full day and night.
Even with Mo Jianli's Great Ascension cultivation, continuously performing this kind of secret technique divine ability caused nearly half of his magic power to be consumed.
If it weren't for the fact that not long ago, the magic tool on his body sensed that Han Li was nearby, he would have had to consider some life-saving means that would damage his true essence.
However, a distance of several million miles was not very far for existences like them.
When Mo Jianli used the treasure in his hand again to repel the entanglement of the two giant beast phantoms, spiritual light appeared in the sky ahead, and a green rainbow emerged, shooting directly toward him.
Mo Jianli was overjoyed to see this, and instead of using the instant movement divine ability to leave the original place, he threw the small white flag in his hand toward the top of his head.
The small flag circled, and waves of white light surged down, transforming into a thick light screen to protect him in place.
The deep-red small hammer in his other hand struck heavily toward the void behind him.
With Han Li there to assist, he naturally wanted to teach the pursuers behind him a good lesson to avenge the miserable flight he had suffered earlier.
A heaven-shaking, earth-shattering loud sound.
The thick, dark clouds that had originally filled the sky were forcibly split apart by a force that shook the heavens and earth, and a red lightning bolt several hundred feet long flashed down, striking the giant toad with lightning speed before it could even react.
This phantom flickered once, and countless deep red electric threads pulsed on its surface; after a "puff" sound, it flickered and dissipated into nothingness.
But strangely, the other giant scorpion phantom also let out a painful hiss, rolled on the ground, and transformed into mist, dissipating.
The rolling blue-green mist began to shrink toward the center, and after the mist vanished completely, the true body of the hidden thing was finally revealed.
It was actually a scorpion-bodied, toad-headed monster over ten zhang long with blood-red eyes.
This monster also had a pair of giant wings on its back, looking both real and illusory, with countless human faces vaguely twisting and shaking on them.
The monster's eyes flashed with cold light as it stared at Mo Jianli and let out several strange croaks, while from its pair of eerie giant wings, a gloomy, strange laughter could be heard.
As soon as this sound entered Mo Jianli's ears, his eyelids felt heavy, and his spiritual sense felt deeply drowsy.
"Not good!"
Mo Jianli cried out secretly, clearly knowing the situation was bad, wanting to mobilize his spiritual sense to resist, but his whole body felt lazy, unable to mobilize a single trace of spiritual sense.
He secretly complained, not knowing that the other party had this kind of strange soul-seizing secret technique after chasing and entangling for such a long time.
At this moment, the scorpion-bodied, toad-headed monster flapped its giant wings, directly transforming into two blurry giant blades several zhang long, slashing down slowly at Mo Jianli.
Its movements seemed slow, but in the blink of an eye, they arrived above Mo Jianli's head, submerging into his protective light screen without any obstruction.
At this, Mo Jianli's expression truly changed drastically!
In his anxiety, just as he was about to ignore everything and urge his Nascent Soul to perform a desperate move, fluctuations arose behind him, and a surprised voice came:
"Eh, what kind of monster is this? It seems a bit strange."
As soon as the voice fell, thunder roared behind him, and countless golden electric arcs sprayed out from the voice, striking the two strange giant blades heavily.
It was Han Li, who saw the situation was bad, performed the instant movement divine ability in time to appear behind Mo Jianli, and released the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder to help him block this fatal strike.
Thunderous sounds rang out in the void!
The golden electric arcs and the giant blades came into contact, and like a natural nemesis, they instantly extinguished most of the blue-green energy wreathed on them.
The two giant blades let out a wail, blurred, and vanished into thin air.
The next moment, the blue-green energy on the monster's back churned, and the pair of giant wings reappeared, but they were clearly a circle smaller than when they first started.
The scorpion-bodied, toad-headed monster's blood pupils constricted, and the gaze it directed at Han Li vaguely revealed a trace of fear.
At this moment, Han Li had already patted Mo Jianli on the shoulder with one hand.
Immediately, a cool feeling swept through every part of the other party's body.
Mo Jianli felt his spirits lift, and the original feeling of drowsiness vanished instantly, restoring his control over his spiritual sense.
"Many thanks, Brother Han! You must be extra careful; this monster is the famous fierce beast 'Che Qizi' in the ancient Asura World. Its poisonous energy can turn even a Great Ascension cultivator into blood water within an hour or three if trapped in it," Mo Jianli thanked him hurriedly and reminded him.
"So it's this kind of ancient fierce beast. I was wondering why even you, Daoist, didn't dare to fight it head-on. However, those classics didn't mention that this fierce beast also knew this kind of overbearing soul-seizing technique." Han Li was enlightened, but instead of feeling fear, he revealed an interested expression.
His body flickered, and he appeared in front of Mo Jianli in a blur, looking at the Che Qizi carefully for a few times.
"This... I'm not too sure either. After all, this kind of thing is only occasionally recorded in ancient classics; perhaps it was forgotten. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have almost suffered a big loss just now," Mo Jianli hurriedly took out a medicine bottle, took a few pills to restore magic power, and replied with a bitter smile. ===== CHAPTER 2298 =====
