Chapter 743: Reputation Gradually Rising

"Then what should we do? Even if Master casts the Blood Shadow Evasion, you can only escape a hundred li at a time, still within that Divine Master's spiritual sense coverage. You can't shake off the lock." Lady Yin Yue also muttered worriedly.

Although Lady Yin Yue didn't say anything about Han Li's life-saving grace, she was still moved in her heart. Her tone unconsciously became a bit more concerned.

"Once is certainly not enough, but if I cast the Blood Shadow Evasion two or three times in a row and then rely on the remaining Evil-Warding Divine Thunder to cast Lightning Evasion, I should have a seventy or eighty percent chance of shaking him off. However, even if my magic power is deeper than an average early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, losing so much essence blood still carries a certain risk. Even if I'm safe and sound, I'll be extremely weak for a long time. But now it seems there's no other way to escape alive. I have to use it." Han Li seemed to have considered this problem long ago, and a trace of self-mockery appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Master, you..." Lady Yin Yue seemed to want to say something else.

"Hmph! That guy is chasing again. He's following tighter each time. We can't delay any longer. We have to take the risk!" Han Li's expression suddenly changed, and he looked up at the gloomy sky behind him, muttering to himself with a gloomy face.

Seeing this, Lady Yin Yue naturally didn't say anything more.

Subsequently, Han Li took a deep breath, and his ten fingers flickered rapidly, flashing a series of strange hand seals. At the same time, green light flashed all over his body, and a shocking spiritual energy suddenly emerged from his body.

He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of crimson essence blood, which immediately scattered in the wind, transforming into thick blood mist that mixed into the green spiritual light.

The spiritual light instantly turned into an eerie green-red color.

At the same time, Han Li's exposed hands and face began to turn abnormally crimson, and in the blink of an eye, they were as fresh red as blood, as if countless blood threads were about to spray out from his skin. It was extremely terrifying!

Han Li, however, seemed completely unaware of this, and the hand seals he was pinching became even faster.

Two more mouthfuls of essence blood were spat out, and Han Li was completely enveloped in the blood mist. His figure became indistinct.

At this moment, light flickered on the horizon in the distance, and three balls of silver light appeared there, flying over slowly.

Figures flickered inside; it was exactly Divine Master Zhong and his two incarnations.

The three of them were also floating in Confucian robes, flying toward Han Li without haste, but their speed was shocking, and in the blink of an eye, they had crossed a distance of several hundred zhang. They could see Han Li's situation with the naked eye.

"Oh!" One of them showed a strange look. His eyes flashed, and he frowned.

With a soft "puchi" sound, the green rainbow blood mist in the distance burst open, and a ball of blinding blood light appeared in the original spot.

Han Li was standing straight inside, looking coldly at the approaching Mulan Divine Master. With a thunderous sound, the Wind and Thunder Wings on his back spread open.

The next moment, the space nearby twisted, and Han Li's figure swayed and disappeared from the spot abruptly.

A harsh, shrill sound immediately came faintly from afar, and in an instant, it became inaudible. It was as if he had escaped from the vicinity.

A look of surprise flashed across the faces of the three Confucian scholars at the same time. After looking at each other, the three of them suddenly gathered in the middle.

After the silver light flashed, the three of them transformed into one.

The remaining Confucian scholar immediately closed his eyes and released his spiritual sense, probing rapidly in the direction where the shrill sound had disappeared.

"He actually ran a hundred li away. What kind of evasion technique is this? It's somewhat similar to the demonic path's Blood Evasion. But the distance is truly shocking." The scholar looked at where Han Li had disappeared, a look of surprise appearing on his face.

Through these few days of pursuit, Han Li had truly shocked him quite a bit.

He could actually run away without sleep or rest until now.

You must know that an ordinary early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, even if they possessed the Lightning Evasion Technique, should have long since exhausted their magic power and waited for death. It seems he either had some heaven-defying treasure that could instantly restore magic power, or he had cast some secret technique that greatly damaged his vitality.

And the opponent possessed such a strange evasion technique, yet only cast it now. It seems he hadn't used his full strength before.

But it doesn't matter; although he had already escaped a hundred li away, he was still within his spiritual sense control. It would just take a little more time.

The scholar pondered coldly. His eyes narrowed, and his spiritual sense locked onto Han Li in the distance again.

After a cold look hung on the corner of his mouth, white light flashed on his body, and he was about to set off again to pursue.

But just at this moment, the scholar suddenly realized that Han Li's aura in his sensing had disappeared strangely again, which made him pause for a moment.

But he immediately remembered something. He hurriedly doubled his spiritual sense range and finally found Han Li again.

Before the scholar could sneer in his heart, Han Li's aura flashed and disappeared again.

This time, the scholar was stunned, truly frozen there.

Although his spiritual sense was powerful, it could at most cover a range of two hundred li. Beyond this range, although he could barely sense general things, he couldn't instantly lock onto a certain person.

Unless the opponent stayed in place and waited for him to search with his spiritual sense, which was naturally impossible.

And the opponent was truly cunning enough; the moment he realized he was still being sensed by his spiritual sense, he actually cast that strange evasion technique several times in a row, truly slipping away from his hands.

This made the scholar, who had almost never been played like this by anyone in so many years, have his face alternate between red and white.

He, a dignified Mulan Divine Master, had actually lost a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. If this matter spread, he would lose a great deal of face.

However, he didn't have the intention to set off to pursue immediately.

Without a spiritual sense lock, with the opponent's strange methods, the hope of catching up by relying on other secret techniques was truly slim.

And he had already wasted several days for this person this time, so it was impossible to continue the pursuit for a small chance.

After all, once their Divine Masters appeared, the few late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators of Tiannan would not sit idly by either. He had to go back and meet up with the other two and make some preparations early.

If he were surrounded by the opponent's late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, he would be in danger.

This Mulan Divine Master pondered with a very bad mood for a good while, but his face still sank, and he transformed into a silver rainbow and turned back to fly toward where he came from.

In the blink of an eye, there was no trace left.

Three hundred li away, Han Li was transforming into a green rainbow, flying toward another direction.

In the escape light, he kept taking out various medicine bottles from his body, pouring some great vitality-replenishing pills into his mouth frantically.

Now his face was pale, and his eyes were dim. He looked like his vitality had been greatly damaged.

"Master, are you okay? Casting the Blood Shadow Evasion three times in a row was indeed too risky. If Master hadn't desperately swallowed numerous pills on the way, the third time you cast it, I'm afraid..." Lady Yin Yue's concerned words came into Han Li's mind.

"I'm fine. Although I lost quite a bit of essence blood, fortunately, I still have some pills I refined in the past. As long as I take the pills and recuperate well for a few months, my cultivation will be fully restored." Han Li replied slowly, his voice somewhat listless.

"Are we going back to Tiantian City?" Hearing Han Li say this, Lady Yin Yue breathed a sigh of relief, but then asked hesitantly.

"Of course not. My condition is so bad now; at the very least, I have to recover my cultivation before I can go back to the Nine Nations Alliance. Otherwise, it's a mixed bag of dragons and snakes there, and I have a big feud with the Ghost Spirit Sect, so it's easy to be plotted against. I won't take this risk. Fortunately, I'm using pills to heal, so I don't need any spiritual vein place to heal. I'll just find a deserted place and go into seclusion for a period of time. Besides, the Azure Bamboo Cloud-Swarm Swords are still stained with those green lamp flames. Although I used the Purple Luo Heavenly Fire to force them to be wrapped, they are still a hidden danger in my body and must be removed." Han Li sighed and said helplessly.

"That bronze lamp is an ancestral treasure of the Mulan people. Naturally, there are some ghostly tricks in it. However, this servant believes that as long as Master spends more time, you will be able to refine it. After all, Master's Purple Luo Heavenly Fire is also a formidable ability." Lady Yin Yue smiled lightly and comforted Han Li with two sentences.

"Things have already reached this point. I can only slowly find a way to solve it." Han Li smiled bitterly and replied noncommittally.

Subsequently, Han Li didn't say any more nonsense. He raised the remaining spiritual power in his body, urged his spell, and the green rainbow flew toward the distance three times faster.

After flying for a whole day and night, Han Li stopped his escape light and landed in an inconspicuous small mountain gully.

At such a distance, even if that Mulan Divine Master was unwilling, it was impossible for him to chase over.

Han Li looked around a few times.

This place was exactly between two wild mountains. Not only was the spiritual energy barely visible, but it was also bald all around, and all of them were round mountain stones, piled up everywhere in the mountain gully.

Han Li carefully scanned everything within a hundred li below with his spiritual sense, and there was no trace of any cultivator or Dharma cultivator.

This made him feel more at ease. He shook his sleeve and released Lady Yin Yue. He also gave an order.

The small fox transformed by Lady Yin Yue didn't say a word. Her figure spun, and yellow mist rose abruptly, sweeping Han Li inside.

Then, after a flash of light, she took Han Li and drilled directly into the side of the mountain wall.

In the mountain gully, there was no trace of anyone.

When Han Li was taken to the middle of the mountain belly by Lady Yin Yue using the Earth Evasion Technique, dense green sword qi sprayed out, quickly carving out a simple stone room several zhang in size.

With a flash of his figure, Han Li entered it and sat cross-legged.

Not long after, Han Li's eyes were tightly closed, green light flowed on his body, and more than a dozen large and small medicine bottles were placed in front of him.

He had to refine the pills he had swallowed during the crisis first before he dared to continue swallowing other pills.

In this way, Han Li went into seclusion in the mountain belly, quietly recovering his vitality.

But Han Li didn't expect that the severity of his vitality loss far exceeded his original expectations, and the time spent recuperating was naturally more prolonged.

Time passed slowly in the boring process of taking medicine and meditating.

Unknowingly, half a year passed.

Han Li was still in the mountain belly and had not come out of seclusion.

But at this time, the outside world was even more turbulent and changeable.

The life-and-death battle between cultivators and Dharma cultivators was about to break out.

What he didn't expect even more was that the great name of Elder Han of the Falling Cloud Sect was already famous in both the Tiannan cultivation world and the Dharma cultivator army at this moment.

Any high-stage cultivator or Dharma cultivator, upon hearing his name, would immediately associate it with his mid-stage Nascent Soul abilities and strength, and would not dare to show the slightest contempt.

And all of this was just what happened in these six months.
