Chapter 554: Making a Move and the Teleportation Array

Two days later, near a nameless small island west of Twin Peaks Island, a green rainbow flew over from afar. When it was about to reach the island, the light faded, revealing a man and a woman.

It was Han Li and Madam Fan.

Han Li disliked the woman's slow escape speed, so he simply used his escape light to carry her and flew to this place together.

"The teleportation array is on this island?" Standing in the air and looking at the small island below, Han Li tilted his head slightly and asked indifferently.

"Correct. There are eight Miaoyin Sect disciples guarding the teleportation array on the island. However, apart from two of them who are my subordinates, the rest are demonic path cultivators brought by Yun Yun Tianxiao, all with cultivation above the Foundation Establishment stage. I cannot command them." Madam Fan said with a solemn expression.

"Understood. Call your people out. Leave the rest to me." A murderous aura flashed across Han Li's face.

"Okay! Senior, wait a moment." Madam Fan agreed immediately without hesitation, her slender hands raised, and a sound transmission talisman appeared between her fingers.

This talisman shook and turned into a streak of fire, fleeing toward the island.

Han Li saw clearly that the sound transmission talisman circled a small hill on the island and then rushed directly toward a seemingly ordinary mound of earth.

As a result, after a flash, the fire light disappeared without a trace. It seemed it had entered some kind of barrier.

A moment later, three people flew out from the mound, two women and one man.

They saw Madam Fan and Han Li in the high sky at a glance, and three streaks of light flew toward them.

"Greetings, Sect Master!" Among them, two plump and stunningly beautiful female cultivators bowed deeply to Madam Fan after arriving. Then they curiously sized up Han Li, but after seeing Han Li's unmasked Core Formation cultivation, they were startled and became solemn.

As for the blue-robed old man following the two women, he only bowed to Madam Fan in a grand manner. But his gaze toward Han Li carried a trace of suspicion, and he opened his mouth as if wanting to ask something.

But Han Li, who had already distinguished friend from foe, didn't give him a chance to speak. A murderous intent rose on his face, and he flicked his finger, and a green sword qi shot out like lightning.

The old man was terrified, but the sword light was too fast; he only managed to let out an "Ah" before a thumb-thick blood hole appeared on his forehead. His corpse fell straight down.

This scene shocked the other two women.

But seeing Madam Fan's gloomy expression and indifference, the two understood something and exchanged glances, falling silent.

"Are the rest of them below?" Madam Fan asked the two women, her voice carrying a chill.

"Yes! All five are at the array site. This disciple will lead the Sect Master and Senior there." One of the fair-skinned female cultivators smiled coquettishly at Han Li and replied crisply.

"Good, lead the way for Senior Li. None of these people can be let go." Madam Fan revealed a ferocious look on her beautiful face.

Upon hearing this, the two women were certain that Madam Fan had found a helper and truly intended to make a move against Yun Yun Tianxiao's people. Without hesitation, they led Han Li and Madam Fan directly toward the small mound.

"Open!" One of the women landed above the mound and shouted coquettishly at the ground below while holding a red-glowing token.

Immediately, a sheet of red light shot out from the token and struck the mound.

Red ripples rippled, and a yellow stone door about four or five zhang high appeared on the surface of the mound out of thin air.

"It's here. However, those five people all have mid-Foundation Establishment cultivation, so Senior should still be careful." The fair-skinned female cultivator smiled coquettishly at Han Li and reminded him crisply.

"Understood." Han Li said expressionlessly. Afterward, he raised his hand, and a green light pillar sprayed out from his hand.

With a loud "Boom—", the stone door was shattered, and Han Li flew directly inside without changing his expression.

The two female cultivators were somewhat worried when they saw this. But Madam Fan had full confidence in Han Li, so she greeted the two women and followed closely behind.

After entering the stone door, it was a blue stone passage about three or four zhang wide, but Han Li narrowed his eyes.

Because he didn't know if they had heard the loud noise of the stone door shattering, two people were rushing out from the opposite side.

Han Li didn't look at their appearance at all; he opened his mouth, and two small green-glowing swords shot out, shooting directly toward the two people opposite.

The two opposite were startled and, not understanding what had happened, could only hurriedly sacrifice a red silk cloth and a small yellow shield, wanting to block it temporarily.

As a result, the green light "Whoosh"ed through, and the two magic tools immediately leaked spiritual energy and fell to the ground. Almost at the same time, the green light flashed again, and the two let out screams and fell backward.

Han Li strode past the corpses and continued forward, his footsteps not stopping for a moment.

The two small swords flew back automatically, dancing around Han Li.

The Madam Fan and others following behind naturally felt happy, but they delayed slightly to deal with the two corpses.

By the time the three women passed through the passage and arrived at a giant hall more than a hundred zhang wide, Han Li was already standing in the middle of the hall with his hands behind his back.

At his feet was a small teleportation array, which he was examining expressionlessly, as if studying something.

All around, there were three corpses lying horizontally, cut into several pieces. A bloody smell filled the place.

Seeing this scene, Madam Fan's beautiful face bloomed, and after asking the other two women to clean up the corpses, she walked over with fragrant wind.

"It seems Senior has truly reached the level of profound magic power; dealing with Foundation Establishment cultivators like us is simply using a sledgehammer to crack a nut." The woman walked to Han Li's side, opened her cherry lips, and complimented him.

"Foundation Establishment cultivators, to me now, truly don't count for much. Is this array the teleportation array you mentioned?" Han Li seemed to have his whole mind on the array, responding perfunctorily before turning the topic to the object in front of him.

"Correct! Senior must have seen it too; this array is now eighty or ninety percent complete. It just needs to finish the part with the Dream Illusion Stones, and it will be usable immediately. And the Dream Illusion Stones, Senior saw them two days ago. I was not deceiving you." Madam Fan said with her beautiful eyes flowing.

"Since Madam's words are true. I will naturally deal with that Yun Yun Tianxiao. However, does this array truly lead to Huangming Island in the Inner Sea? As far as I know, that is just an ordinary medium-sized island. Why would the demonic path choose to set the other end of the array there?" Han Li stared at the teleportation array at his feet and frowned.

"I heard Yun Yun Tianxiao mention this. It is said that there was originally an abandoned teleportation array from the ancient times on Huangming Island. The demonic path cultivators slightly modified it and used it themselves. However, the array there can only accept one-way transmissions and cannot transmit out. The demonic path cultivators don't use it much. If it weren't for the fact that only this teleportation array could accept such a long-distance transmission from the Outer Sea, Yun Yun Tianxiao wouldn't have chosen this place. Senior going there won't encounter any trouble." Madam Fan explained to Han Li with a solemn expression. She now knew that Han Li valued the teleportation matter extremely highly, so she naturally didn't dare to be careless.

Hearing this, Han Li nodded and said nothing more.

As long as there were no Nascent Soul old monsters guarding that place, with his supernatural powers, he wouldn't fear it even if it were a dragon's den or a tiger's lair.

Moreover, he accepted the risk. It was much better than flying all the way back to the Inner Sea from the Outer Sea.

And Han Li was confident that this woman had no reason to deceive him in such matters.

After examining the teleportation array a few more times, he turned to Madam Fan and said coldly:

"Hurry and have your array master come here to complete this array. After I kill that Yun Yun Tianxiao, I will immediately use the teleportation array. Now, go back and wait for that Elder Yun. According to what you said, he will arrive at Twin Peaks Island in at most five or six days to personally preside over the market's affairs."

After saying this, he strode toward the outside with a gloomy expression.

As the days passed, Han Li also felt anxious inwardly. He knew very well that the longer he stayed in one place, the more likely he was to be found by the demon cultivator Feng Xi.

What made Han Li helpless was that the Wind Spirit Energy flare-up that Feng Xi had mentioned would dissipate hadn't happened yet. He didn't know how long the "after a while" it had mentioned would take; could it be a year or even several years? Or was it just a lie?

He had tried several times to shrink the Gold-Eating Beetles and swallow them into his abdomen to slowly gnaw at the Wind Spirit Energy. But after one try, he discovered that this method wouldn't work.

The Gold-Eating Beetles in his abdomen had to bite through the golden threads of the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder to gnaw at the Wind Spirit Energy. But as soon as a small hole was bitten in the outer golden threads, the Wind Spirit Energy would flare up immediately. This scared him into hurriedly patching the gap.

Therefore, if it weren't for the fact that eliminating Yun Yun Tianxiao would be effortless, he wouldn't have stayed here for so many days.

Even so, Han Li still felt a trace of unease inwardly, and a bad feeling kept welling up in his heart.
