Chapter 420

Just then, a buzzing sound, several times louder than the previous one, arose again in the distance. Net

The freak looked up in surprise, his expression turning deathly pale, without a trace of blood. Net

He saw a giant insect cloud several dozen zhang long appearing in the sky in the distance, almost dyeing half the sky in gold and silver colors. The huge buzzing sound was vaguely emitted from this insect cloud.

And beneath the insect cloud, Han Li was looking at the freak with an expressionless face, his gaze icy, as if looking at a dead person, and he spat out the word "Go."

Immediately, the giant insect cloud covered the sky and the earth, rushing toward the freak like a dark cloud pressing down.

The freak's hands and feet were icy cold. This insect swarm, which was at least ten times larger than the previous one, could not possibly be resisted by him. In his panic, he suddenly had the intention to retreat.

So, with an ugly expression, he waved his hand, retracted the flower basket transformed into white aura into his hand, and then hit the two blood-red ghost heads with two blood-red magic seals, reciting a somewhat obscure incantation in his mouth. Then, he didn't even care about retrieving the flying swords that were still entangled, and turned his head to flee without any hesitation.

The freak left so decisively that Han Li was startled.

The two ghost heads spat out a few more violent phosphorus fires and were also about to flee, but how could Han Li let them slip away like this?

Under his urging, the giant insect cloud instantly completely submerged them, and no matter how they spat out phosphorus fires, they were immediately swallowed clean by the tens of thousands of Gold-Eating Insects.

Immediately, the ghost heads were covered with countless Gold-Eating Insects.

Seeing this, Han Li knew they were finished. Just as he wanted to put away the Gold-Eating Insects to chase the freak, two huge explosions suddenly came.

The place where the ghost heads were submerged actually exploded, and the emerald green flames wrapped a large area of Gold-Eating Insects within them for a time.

Han Li was startled at first, but immediately felt relieved.

Because under the connection of his mind, except for the hundreds of Gold-Eating Insects at the very center that were burned by this strange fire, most of the Gold-Eating Insects were safe and sound.

It could be seen that these Gold-Eating Insects, which were not yet fully mature, were not truly unafraid of damage; after exceeding a certain limit, they would still be destroyed.

However, this already made Han Li greatly satisfied. After all, the Gold-Eating Insects had forced two formidable ghost heads to self-destruct as soon as they appeared. He believed that ordinary Core Formation cultivators would definitely not be a match for the insect swarm.

Thinking of this, Han Li turned into a green rainbow without a word, retracted the Gold-Eating Insects filling the sky, and chased directly after the fleeing freak.

Han Li's intention was very simple: since he had already forged a deep hatred with this freak, he naturally had to solve the problem once and for all; how could he let this person slip away from under his nose easily?

At the same time, Qu Hun also turned into a yellow light under his thought and flew into Han Li's green rainbow, chasing after him together.

As for Hu Yue, Jin Qing, and the others, they stayed in place, looking at each other. It seemed they still couldn't accept the fact that Han Li alone had forced the freak to flee in panic.

The freak's escape technique was quite miraculous, and Han Li used all his strength to drive the Green Brilliance Sword, but he still only managed to widen the distance from the other party bit by bit.

And in the blink of an eye, the three of them ran out for several dozen miles, one after another, and were about to leave the range of this deserted island.

Seeing this situation, cold light flashed in Han Li's eyes. He took a deep breath, and seven small emerald green swords the size of a palm suddenly flew out from his body.

After these small swords circled around his body, they merged into a giant green sword.

Han Li shook his body, and he and Qu Hun arrived on the giant sword.

Green light flourished, and Han Li, at a speed nearly half faster than just now, turned into a green rainbow more than ten zhang long and broke through the sky.

A cup of tea's time later, Han Li caught up.

Looking at the black light rushing ahead, Han Li, with a face covered in frost, raised his hand, and two identical small emerald green swords shot out swiftly. At the same time, Qu Hun's Hunyuan Bowl also turned into a yellow light and was released.

The fleeing freak ahead clearly also discovered Han Li's relentless pursuit, so while Han Li and Qu Hun released their magic treasures, he immediately released a skull, opened its big mouth, and rushed up to meet them. The freak then continued to fly his magic tool without even looking back.

In the freak's mind, with this skull blocking, he could at least buy himself some more time.

Han Li's expression sank. Without a word, he pinched a sword seal, and the two flying swords flashed with green light, suddenly turning into four sword lights that were hard to distinguish between true and false. Two of them and the Hunyuan Bowl headed straight for the ghost head, while the other two silently merged into a flying sword the size of a foot, increasing its speed and shooting quietly toward the freak's back.

The merged flying sword was extremely fast, arriving behind the freak in the blink of an eye.

However, the freak seemed to have sensed something. He suddenly turned his head and caught sight of a green glow only five or six zhang away.

The freak's face turned pale and bloodless.

Thinking quickly, he opened his mouth, spat out a ball of black aura to meet the flying sword, and then hurriedly lifted his escape light, wanting to flee to one side.

Under Han Li's urging, the flying sword plunged into the black aura without hesitation. A pale golden arc of electricity suddenly sprang up, and the black aura was immediately cleared away.

Then, with a flash of green light, the emerald green flying sword pierced into the freak's chest without the slightest obstruction.

The freak still refused to believe it and looked down at the flying sword, showing an expression of disbelief. Before he could say a word, he turned into ashes under the ejection of the pale golden arc of electricity.

Han Li hurriedly escaped forward, flashed a few times, grabbed three items in his hand, and then looked at them steadily.

Besides the flower basket Ancient Treasure and the storage bag, there was also a red-glowing scroll. Looking at the spiritual energy it contained, even if it wasn't a Primordial Ancient Treasure, it was definitely not an ordinary magic treasure.

Han Li secretly rejoiced and unfolded the scroll lightly to take a look, and couldn't help but be stunned.

After staring at the object depicted for a long time, Han Li slowly closed the scroll again, and a trace of deep thought appeared on his face.

Suppressing the doubt in his heart, Han Li flew toward the skull silently.

The black skull without a master floated in the air motionlessly. Although its evil aura had not diminished by half, it had completely lost its original spiritual nature.

After Han Li looked at it, he frowned slightly.

To be honest, this was the first time he had seen such an eerie thing.

He vaguely felt that this thing did not come from a good source, but he was somewhat reluctant to part with it. After hesitating for a moment, he still put it into a jade box and kept it well.

Then, after circling the vicinity once more, Han Li flew back with Qu Hun.

As a result, halfway up the mountain, Han Li met Jin Qing and the others who had come to help.

Seeing Han Li and the other returning without any harm, they surrounded them with surprise and joy.

"Fellow Daoist Han, where is that monster? Did he escape?" Jin Qing couldn't help but ask.

"He has already been eliminated by me!" Han Li said without changing his expression.

"Eliminated, that's great. I saw that this person's evil aura was soaring to the sky; if he had entangled with us in the future, it would have been extremely troublesome." Jin Qing said with a sigh of relief after hearing this.

But Hu Yue and the cultivator surnamed Brother Jian nearby had their expressions change slightly, and the looks they cast toward Han Li contained a trace of awe.

After all, in the cultivation world, the capable are still respected.

Next, the group flew back to the distance, where Lady Shi was waiting for them anxiously.

The group gathered together again, and after a brief discussion, they still felt it was better to break the formation quickly, to avoid any unexpected accidents.

Thus, the group stood in their positions again, and after Han Li restored his state of mind, he re-activated those formation flags and disks.

The process of breaking the final restriction was exceptionally smooth. When the red light barrier shattered, not a single "Winged Evil" managed to escape, and all were eliminated by the water-attribute magic tools in everyone's hands.

The group had expressions of joy and then looked at the peculiar stone pillar exposed in the middle.

Since there was no obstruction from the restriction, with everyone's spiritual sense and eyesight, even without getting close to the stone pillar, they could still see everything on it clearly.

The runes on this stone pillar were very strange. From the top to the bottom of the stone pillar, a total of eight huge ancient character symbols were spiraling and engraved, along with countless strange stripes. Moreover, the entire stone pillar was inlaid with many rare Yin-Yang jades, evenly distributed across the entire stone pillar, flashing with faint black and white light.

After seeing this, everyone was puzzled for a while, and after looking at each other, they all fell into deep thought, struggling to recall relevant information.

"Spirit-Sealing Pillar."

After just a moment, Shi Die, who had the lowest cultivation, gasped and called out the name of the stone pillar.

Upon hearing this name, Han Li and the others were startled at first, and then they all looked at each other in surprise and doubt.

"Lady Shi, did you see it wrong? Is this really a Spirit-Sealing Pillar?" Hu Yue couldn't help but ask with a somewhat dry voice.
