Chapter 2388
Volume Eleven: Descent of the True Immortal, Chapter 2370: Return
Lady Huaxi suddenly twisted her delicate body, as if she had been prepared, and a palm wrapped in a faint glow met the attack like lightning.
After a "peng" sound, the two palms collided.
After the crystal sand and golden flames burst, both their bodies trembled and retreated several steps.
"I knew you old ghost would pull this trick. It seems you haven't suffered enough. I want to make you..." Lady Huaxi's seemingly delicate face became somewhat distorted and livid. Just after she spoke these harsh words, she suddenly changed to an expression of extreme terror. Her whole body shuddered, and a withered, green palm protruded from her chest.
The five fingers of this palm were clutching a struggling little person whose face and expression were identical to Lady Huaxi's, but filled with pain.
Master Wu Gou appeared like a ghost before Lady Huaxi's Nascent Soul after a blur, staring coldly at her without a word...
Only then did fluctuations arise behind the woman, and a blurry green shadow, almost invisible, emerged.
Almost at the same time, on the other side, the golden fire person who was still attacking the Extreme Mountain in circles amidst the golden sea of fire vanished into thin air with a "pushi" sound.
Without the obstruction, the Extreme Mountain pressed down, and the entire sea of fire collapsed and extinguished amidst rumbling sounds.
"You actually cultivated the Substitute Spirit Technique, otherwise I would never have ended up like this. Don't be smug; husband and wife are birds of the same fate. Since I am to fall here, don't think you will continue to survive in this world. Don't forget the Same-Fate Restriction placed on you." Lady Huaxi's Nascent Soul struggled desperately for a moment, but after finding it impossible to break free, she completely gave up all actions in despair, but spoke to Master Wu Gou with extreme resentment.
"Is that so? Since you think that way, then go in peace. Several years ago, I already broke the restriction you placed on me. I endured until now just for that item in your sleeve." Master Wu Gou's eyes flashed with a strange expression, but he spoke woodenly.
"This is impossible, ah..."
Lady Huaxi's Nascent Soul was startled and screamed crazily, but she only managed to let out one cry before the green figure turned into a golden fire person with a "pu" sound. It lunged forward, wrapping the Nascent Soul and the woman's body within it, instantly turning them into ashes.
Master Wu Gou's pupils shrank slightly, but he immediately grabbed into the void with one hand, expressionless.
A sound of breaking air rang out from the golden flames, and a pitch-black array disk flew out and landed in his hand.
Master Wu Gou examined the object in his hand for a few moments and blew on it.
A muffled sound immediately came!
The array disk weathered away at a speed visible to the naked eye, finally turning into a wisp of black smoke that hovered there, refusing to dissipate.
Master Wu Gou inhaled, drawing the black smoke into his abdomen. After checking his body for a moment, a look of relief finally flashed in his eyes.
The golden flames rolled and condensed, once again transforming into a green figure standing in the original spot.
A "peng" sound.
The sand shield finally melted completely into juice, but the silver flames that should have been rolling in from outside trembled and then abruptly and strangely solidified. Even the giant fire bird folded its wings and stopped in mid-air.
Only then did Master Wu Gou's eyes flash as he glanced at the giant golden ape not far away.
The giant ape transformed from Han Li was also looking at Master Wu Gou with a thought-provoking gaze, and after a moment, it opened its mouth and buzzed:
"Although I don't know what happened between you two, I can roughly guess some of it. Now that you are the only one left, do you still intend to make a move?"
"Of course there is no need for that. In my current state, the Master Xu Tian Ding cultivation technique is of no unique use to me. Moreover, up until now, you haven't even shown half of your strength, Fellow Daoist. Naturally, I won't do anything to truly anger you. I will take my leave first." After Master Wu Gou replied indifferently, the green figure beside him lunged onto his body, instantly merging into it and vanishing. Then, with a shake of his sleeve and a roll of glow on his body, he turned into a stunning rainbow and broke through the air, disappearing at the edge of the horizon after a few flashes.
Han Li was a little surprised, not expecting Master Wu Gou to leave so decisively. Naturally, he would not try to intercept him.
On the other side, an earth-shaking boom rang out.
Han Li's heart stirred. He turned back to look and saw that the sea of blood mist in the distance had dissipated for some reason, revealing the Brahma Saint Golden Body and the Nine-Eyed Blood Toad inside.
The two were facing each other from a hundred zhang away, but the golden light on one was dim, and it was missing a head and two arms.
The other was covered in wounds, and of its nine blood eyes, only five could still open, while the rest were bleeding profusely.
The two were in a state of mutual destruction.
As for the other two battlefields, the sounds of thunder and explosions were constant, and they still seemed to be fighting fiercely.
Han Li smiled inwardly. The giant ape he had transformed into moved, intending to head straight toward the Nine-Eyed Blood Toad.
Just at this moment, the Nine-Eyed Blood Toad let out a deep sigh:
"Fellow Daoist Han, no need to fight anymore. In this struggle, the three of us have already lost. We will definitely not entangle ourselves with you as companions again."
As soon as the words fell, wisps of blood mist rose from the Nine-Eyed Blood Toad again, and all the wounds on its body healed rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The blood toad then rolled on the ground as the glow on its body rolled, recovering its human form.
After Han Li pondered for a moment, the giant ape he had transformed into also let out a low roar and shrank rapidly, recovering its original form amidst golden light.
The people in the other two battlefields naturally saw all of this.
Even though Daoist Qingping and Lady Wanhua were full of reluctance, they could only helplessly withdraw their divine abilities and treasures, actively retreating from the battlefield. After a flash of light, they appeared beside Xiao Ming with extremely ugly expressions.
"Brother Xiao, are we really just going to let it go like this?" Lady Wanhua asked, full of unwillingness.
"If we don't let it go, what else can we do? Master Wu Gou and Lady Huaxi are no longer here. Relying on the three of us, we don't even have a shred of a chance of winning," Xiao Ming said slowly.
Daoist Qingping, who was beside him, had a face that kept changing between cloudy and sunny, but in the end, he did not say anything about continuing the fight.
"Fellow Daoist Han, we admit defeat this time. The three of us have no face to continue staying here, so we will take our leave." Xiao Ming cupped his fists at Han Li, and the glow on his body flashed slightly, seemingly intending to fly away with Daoist Qingping and Lady Wanhua.
"Brother Xiao, wanting to fight when you want and leave when you want, isn't that looking down on me a bit too much?" Han Li suddenly said with a cold laugh.
At this time, the Golden Giant Crab and Ice Soul had also withdrawn their techniques and flown to Han Li's side.
Ice Soul was full of surprise.
The silver arcs on the Golden Giant Crab's body flashed, and it transformed into a young Daoist.
"What Brother Han means is..." Xiao Ming's figure froze, and he asked with flashing pupils.
"Brother Xiao, are you pretending not to know? Don't you intend to give me an explanation?" Han Li asked indifferently.
"Brother Han really doesn't want to suffer even the slightest loss. Here are three Yin Blood Crystals; consider them an apology." Xiao Ming sighed, shook his sleeve, and a jade box shot toward Han Li.
Han Li grabbed the jade box with one hand, scanned it with his spiritual sense, and nodded with a look of satisfaction.
With a flash of spiritual light, the jade box vanished from his hand without a trace.
At this time, Xiao Ming cupped his fists at Han Li again, turned into a blood-colored light, and soared into the sky. Daoist Qingping and Lady Wanhua followed closely behind without a word.
Although they couldn't obtain the heavy treasures of Master Xu Tian Ding, there was still some time before the Xu Tian Ding Palace closed. If they hurried, they could still obtain some benefits from other areas.
The three of them naturally wouldn't delay any longer.
"Many thanks for your great kindness, Brother Han. If it weren't for your help again, I'm afraid I would have truly ended up with my soul scattered," Ice Soul said after a long sigh, bowing deeply to Han Li, her words filled with undisguised gratitude.
"Fellow Daoist Ice Soul, no need to be so polite. Even without mentioning the connection between us, just considering that we both belong to the human race's Great Ascension stage, I would still ensure you remain safe and sound," Han Li replied with a faint smile, waving his hand.
As for Crab Daoist, he remained wooden and silent.
Thus, after Han Li and Ice Soul exchanged a few more words, the three of them took flight and shot off in a certain direction.
Several hours later, in a certain void outside the central area, fluctuations arose, and a light array appeared out of thin air.
Han Li, Ice Soul, and the others appeared silently.
After the three of them looked around, Ice Soul's expression stirred, and she immediately said:
"I seem to have sensed the general location of Blood Spirit. I will immediately cast a spell to borrow the power of the restriction to send us over."
Hearing this, Han Li naturally would not object.
Thus, Ice Soul immediately flipped her palm, and an array disk appeared in her hand. Her fingers pointed at it rapidly.
After a moment, the woman tossed the array disk into the air, and it transformed into a light array.
After the three of them stepped into it, the light array buzzed, and their figures vanished.
Several hours later, Blood Soul, who was in a pavilion taking a dozen magic tools from a pale yellow wooden shelf into her sleeve, suddenly changed her expression. She ignored the remaining two or three items, instead forming an incantation with one hand. Her escape light rose, and she turned into a stunning rainbow, shooting out of the pavilion. After a flash, she stopped silently in a certain spot high in the sky.
Almost at the same time, faint fluctuations arose in the nearby void, and a light array emerged out of thin air. Han Li and the others stepped out of it.
"You finally came out?" Blood Soul's eyes flashed with strange light as she looked at the woman beside Han Li who had a face identical to her own, speaking with a complex expression.
"These years have been truly hard on you. It's fortunate you were able to find Brother Han, otherwise I'm afraid you and I would never have had the day to meet again," Ice Soul said, staring at the Blood Spirit incarnation before her with a smile.
