Chapter 383: Beheading the High-Tier

Just as the Core Formation stage cultivator in the formation slowed down, more than a dozen crystal-clear white ice spears shot out from the seawater on one side, fiercely pouncing toward his back.

Elder Gu's originally clumsy body suddenly regained its agility, actually swaying and turning around, then raising his hand, a huge yellow moon blade shot out, shattering the sneak-attacking ice spears with a "pi pi pa pa" sound in the blink of an eye, and without slowing down, slashed straight toward the direction where the ice snake had been shot.

At the same time, the seawater behind Elder Gu suddenly parted, and a blood-red crimson light pillar shot out. Because the speed was too fast and the distance too short, and Elder Gu was restrained by the formation, he couldn't dodge in time, so he had to let the yellow light on his body flourish as his expression changed slightly, resisting it head-on.

The blood light, as thick as an arm, struck the Core Formation stage cultivator, making him stumble forward two steps, standing unsteadily.

But just at this moment, green light flashed on one side, and Han Li actually appeared out of thin air beside Elder Gu, gripping a silver giant sword with both hands and slashing down fiercely.

This really shocked Elder Gu!

There was clearly no one here just now; what kind of escape technique did the other party use to be so bizarre?

Although he was shocked in his heart, the yellow light on his body surged violently without thinking, intending to take Han Li's giant sword head-on.

Han Li chuckled, and his person actually disappeared before his eyes, while "pu pu" sounds of tearing through the air came from all around, and more than a dozen red threads as thin as strings suddenly appeared all around, piercing fiercely.

"Flying Needles!" Elder Gu was horrified!

He naturally knew a lot about the "Yin Tools" that were famous in the cultivation world.

Instantly, the yellow light on his body shone brightly; he wanted to destroy these venomous magic tools immediately to avoid being secretly plotted against.

With a loud "peng" sound, Han Li appeared behind him and slashed down with his sword, making the yellow light shake immediately, and then more than ten red threads pierced through the yellow light like venomous snakes, penetrating several feet and still drilling forward fiercely.

Elder Gu was shocked and angry, cold light flashing in his eyes, and he reached out to touch his storage pouch.

At this moment, he understood somewhat that under the other party's formation and bizarre attacks, it seemed very difficult to win by relying only on one magic treasure with his seriously damaged vitality.

But before he could take out other things, two blood rays as thick as a thumb flashed and appeared before him, then shot into his protective yellow light with incomparable sharpness.

Because the yellow light was flickering and dim after taking a blow from Han Li's silver sword and being trapped by those flying needles, it was easily pierced by these inconspicuous blood rays.

Elder Gu's face was extremely pale!

But he was, after all, a Core Formation stage cultivator, and the moment the blood rays pierced his protective yellow light, he felt something was wrong. He didn't care about taking out any treasures and tilted his body violently.

Instantly, one blood ray grazed his ear, taking away a large piece of flesh, and although the other blood ray avoided the vital point of his heart, it left a small hole in his shoulder that spurted blood.

This made Elder Gu let out an "ai you" in pain, his legs softening, almost kneeling on the ground.

But Han Li's offensive didn't stop there; Qu Hun's tall figure leaped out from the seawater, raised both hands, and two blood-red light pillars sprayed out urgently.

At the same time, Han Li also expressionlessly danced his silver sword into a huge silver light group with one hand, hitting the yellow light continuously and making a "cha cha" friction sound, which was extremely ear-piercing! With the other hand, he took out a thick stack of talismans, instantly firing countless fireballs and ice cones, and suddenly various colored brilliance and bursting sounds rang out continuously.

Elder Gu, who had recovered from the sharp pain, panicked.

Because he clearly felt that under the giant pressure of the formation and the other party's continuous attacks, the "Mixed Origin Bowl" was consuming too much magic power and couldn't support the consumption of the protective yellow light.

In terror, he didn't care about anything and was about to use a secret technique to forcibly extract magic power again, when Han Li's incantation sounded coldly before his action.

Instantly, the surrounding seawater spun crazily, and then the huge pressure on him increased several times, making the last bit of yellow light on his body let out a "zhi zhi" mournful cry.

In his unbelievable gaze, the yellow light around him disappeared without a trace, and the released dozen flying needles immediately flashed red and pierced through his vital points, making Elder Gu sway a few times before finally half-kneeling on the ground.

Silver light flashed, and Han Li passed by his side without a sound, and then the great head of this Six Paths Hall Elder flew out a zhang away.

Fresh blood immediately spurted several feet high, and a thick, fishy smell spread out.

Han Li let out a long sigh of relief!

But he immediately took a step, rushed back to the dead body, picked up the storage pouch at his waist with his silver sword, and grabbed it in his hand.

At the same time, Qu Hun also picked up the yellow bowl-shaped magic treasure.

Then, Han Li took Qu Hun and flashed out of the grand formation a few times, released the Spirit Wind Boat, and immediately flew into the sky.

After flying only twenty or thirty miles, Han Li controlled his tool and plunged into the sea below, diving to a depth of several dozen zhang.

Afterward, he put away the magic tool, took out the red light gauze that cut off breath, covered himself and Qu Hun inside, and at the same time, the two used their nameless incantation to refine Qi and collect their breath!

Not long after doing all this, a powerful and angry spiritual sense descended nearby and searched the sky above the sea here.

Although this spiritual sense checked very carefully, it couldn't find the traces of Han Li and Qu Hun; the violent spiritual sense swept past the two and hurried to pursue in other places.

Only then did Han Li truly feel at ease.

Naturally, he wouldn't be stupid enough to appear and float to the surface immediately; he simply released a layer of pale blue protective shield in the seabed, protecting the two inside and separating them from the seawater, and sat cross-legged with Qu Hun to recuperate.

Half a month passed while hiding in the sea.

During the first few days of this period, that powerful spiritual sense seemed unwilling to give up, repeatedly searching back and forth from Han Li's location several times, but each time Han Li saw the opportunity early and refined Qi to collect his breath, making it return empty-handed.

Now this spiritual sense had completely disappeared and hadn't appeared for more than ten days.

Only then did Han Li dare to begin acting.

He carefully escaped more than a hundred miles in the sea before flying out of the seawater, and after identifying a direction, flew with all his might.

Naturally, he couldn't return to Kui Xing Island; he had to find another place to settle down.

Although he didn't know what kind of unspeakable relationship the two Six Paths Hall cultivators and the youth named "Wu Chou" had, that they didn't hesitate to kill to silence him, it was definitely not something he, a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator, could get involved in. It was better to stay far away from the sphere of influence of both.

However, it was truly a pity for the cave dwelling on Xiao Cai Huan Island and the three sets of precious formation-setting tools, plus the other magic tools lost in the struggle; he had truly suffered a great loss!

Han Li controlled his tool and flew wildly while laughing at himself bitterly.

However, compared to the middle-aged Confucian scholar and the others who were in dire straits, he had at least saved his own life, so there was nothing to complain about!

Just as Han Li was comforting himself, his heart stirred, and he took out Elder Gu's storage pouch.

Having been terrified for the past period, Han Li hadn't had the heart to check this item, but now he had to take a look.

A storage pouch of a Core Formation stage cultivator shouldn't be too shabby! Hopefully, it could compensate for this loss.

After slowly immersing his spiritual sense into the storage pouch, Han Li was overjoyed by the seventy or eighty mid-tier spirit stones inside.

This Elder Gu truly had a lot of wealth! He actually carried so many spirit stones with him!

Could it be that he, like himself, was used to carrying all his belongings with him?

After thinking this, so many spirit stones seemed normal for a cultivator who had been in the Core Formation stage for many years!

After thinking this, Han Li finally moved his attention from the spirit stones and focused his gaze on several other items.

A yellow jade bottle an inch high, two talismans flashing with blue and gold colors, a Daoist book, and a round ball flashing with blue light.

As for the others, they were all some miscellaneous, worthless things.

The Daoist book was nothing; it was a top-tier cultivation technique "Earth Departure Technique," and although it couldn't be said to be ordinary goods, he wouldn't practice it at all.

The two talismans were good things; one was a talisman treasure with a small golden sword drawn on it, and the other was an unknown talisman with a blue flood dragon drawn on it, which made Han Li happy in his heart.

Han Li took out the round ball and played with it for a while, finally confirming that this was the demon core of some Rank 5 demon beast, which was naturally an extremely rare item.

Finally, only the inconspicuous little bottle remained.

But when Han Li opened the lid of the yellow little bottle, five yellow pills the size of a thumb rolled out.

These pills were not only the same size, but their color was bright, crystal clear, and uniform, emitting a strange medicinal fragrance.

"Dust-Descending Pill"

Looking at the pills in his palm, Han Li was stunned.

Although he hadn't seen the real thing, the shape, color, and fragrance of the medicinal pill were exactly the same as described in the "Appraisal of Alchemy" he had bought! If it wasn't this item, what could it be?
