Chapter 849

The Demon Soul hadn't expected this giant sword to be a Gold Thunder Bamboo magic treasure, and it was startled.

However, with its bizarre evasion speed, black light flashed, and its figure appeared more than ten zhang away, the giant sword naturally slashing at empty air.

After the demon stopped, its expression turned gloomy. It rubbed its four palms together, and two more black light clusters emerged.

Black light flashed, and the light clusters transformed into two black light spears, buzzing loudly.

The demon's fangs bit its tongue tip, and with two "pfft" sounds, two mouthfuls of essence blood sprayed onto the black spears.

Instantly, the two light spears trembled slightly and transformed into a blood-red color.

The Demon Soul, having sprayed essence blood, saw both its heads appear listless. It seemed this technique had cost it quite a bit of vitality.

The green giant sword appeared above the Demon Soul's head once more, then slashed down.

This time, the Demon Soul didn't hesitate, swinging its four arms. It threw both blood-red spears at the giant sword simultaneously.

Blood light flashed and vanished, followed by two loud "boom" sounds.

Golden arcs flashed wildly, but the two light spears did not dissipate under the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder. They struck the giant sword's body solidly.

As a result, the giant sword let out a long, mournful cry and was knocked several zhang away, tumbling several times. At the same time, the spiritual light on the sword body flashed wildly, becoming extremely dim.

Han Li, who was controlling the giant sword in the distance, had a blood-red face, but after green Qi flashed, his expression returned to normal.

The giant sword's spirituality had been damaged, and as he was connected to the giant sword by heart and mind, he naturally suffered some setbacks. Fortunately, his spiritual sense was truly powerful, and this minor damage couldn't affect him.

But Han Li didn't dare to hesitate any longer and pointed at the distance.

With a buzzing sound, the giant sword disintegrated into dozens of green rays and shot back toward Han Li.

"Want to leave! Leave these flying swords behind first." Seeing the flying swords fleeing, the Demon Soul immediately shouted sharply. Then, it beckoned at the two blood-red light spears, and after a flash of light, the blood spears instantly transformed into two blood-red giant hands, chasing after them with a roar.

Since it saw Han Li rashly bringing out so many Gold Thunder Bamboo magic treasures, it naturally wouldn't let Han Li take them back easily.

The Demon Soul itself spun around, and a large amount of demonic Qi emerged, transforming into a black cloud and chasing after them with the speed of lightning.

Seeing this, Han Li felt secretly overjoyed, but his face remained expressionless, appearing extremely calm.

The silver-haired elder to the side couldn't sit still. He flipped his hand, and a small, misty yellow sword appeared in his hand, wanting to lend Han Li a hand.

"Senior Brother Cheng, no need to act. When we trap this demon, it won't be too late for Senior Brother to act!" Before the elder could activate the flying sword in his hand, Han Li's voice transmission reached his ears.

The silver-haired elder was stunned. After looking around, he seemed to realize something and immediately stopped his actions, feeling greatly relieved in his heart.

At this moment, the blood-red hands were clearly much faster than the flying swords. The green sword light had only flown a short distance before being caught up by the two hands one after another. Seeing the two blood-red hands suddenly expand several times and grab at the flying swords, Han Li urged his spell without panic.

The originally scattered flying swords let out a clear cry, suddenly connecting their spiritual power, and transformed into a green mist that broke through the air.

Their flight speed instantly increased by a full fold.

The two blood-red hands naturally grabbed at empty air. Watching the green flying swords shoot to the top of Han Li's head and hover uncertainly, Han Li urged his spell without panic.

【849-28】

The Demon Soul in the black cloud behind was furious. The opponent's move just now was truly a bit of intentional mockery.

The demon, with a gloomy face, beckoned at the blood-red hands. After a flash of light, the blood light transformed into two blood-red long knives that fell into its hands.

A sharp whistle came from the Demon Soul's mouth, and ten-odd zhang of demonic Qi rolled toward Han Li without warning. The demon flickered, vanishing from the demonic Qi and concealing its figure.

Seeing the demonic Qi pressing down, Han Li frowned, but lifted both hands, and golden electric arcs instantly shot from his arms, transforming into an electric net that intercepted the large mass of demonic Qi. His pair of eyes flashed with blue light, and he scanned left and right without changing his expression.

But immediately, an expression of surprise appeared on Han Li's face!

The area was empty, with no sign of the Demon Soul. He suddenly looked up into the air, and there was no trace there either!

Han Li was stunned and rubbed his chin. But immediately, his expression changed as he thought of something. He grabbed the silver-haired elder's arm and, without a word, flew backward as a green streak of light.

Just at this moment, two blood rays flashed and vanished, shooting into the sky from where Han Li had been standing. Then, the Demon Soul manifested a few zhang below. Both heads revealed expressions of surprise.

It had thought this sneak attack was a sure thing.

Han Li secretly cursed the Demon Soul for being sinister, actually thinking of attacking from below. If he hadn't reacted fast enough, even with his spiritual eye divine ability, he would have almost been sliced in two. He didn't believe that just by relying on the three-colored insect armor inside his green robe and the thin layer of protective spiritual light, he could truly withstand the opponent's blade light.

The silver-haired elder to the side was covered in cold sweat, also looking terrified.

The Demon Soul stood in place, looked at Han Li's suddenly changed expression, and after its eyes rolled a few times, it gave a sinister smile, flickered, and transformed into a black streak of light, shooting over.

Han Li laughed lightly.

As soon as the black streak shot out a few zhang, golden light bloomed in front of it, and a strand of golden thread appeared, flashing and shooting toward the black streak.

With a light "dang" sound, the golden thread flickered and paused in front of the black streak, blocked by the two blood-red long knives. But then, with a muffled sound, the black streak was suddenly knocked more than a zhang away, revealing the Demon Soul's somewhat staggering figure. Both heads were filled with expressions of shock.

The golden thread vanished without a trace. The Great Expansion Sword Array was finally activated by Han Li, drawing the demon into the array.

At this moment, Han Li cast a spell with both hands, connecting his spiritual sense to all the sword lights, and urged the entire Great Expansion Sword Array.

A bizarre scene appeared.

Only countless golden threads, flashing with eerie golden light, appeared in the surroundings, flickering silently and without pattern, slowly closing in toward the center.

The Demon Soul's face turned fierce; only then did it realize it had fallen into Han Li's trap, having fallen deep into an unknown restriction.

Furious, it swung its blades, and several blood-red blade lights crossed and shot out, slashing directly at Han Li's position.

Dozens of golden threads appeared simultaneously and flickered a few times, and the blood light was instantly sliced into countless pieces of flesh, turning into specks of spiritual light and vanishing without a trace.

The Demon Soul was stunned, the front head revealing a solemn expression. Then, it snorted coldly, and its two blood-red long knives joined in the middle. After light flashed, they transformed into a blood-red giant blade.

Holding the blade with all four arms, it slashed slowly at one direction. The giant blade's blood light was dazzling, and a giant crescent-shaped blade light shot out.

The momentum was truly astonishing!

The giant blade light slashed several golden threads and shot ten zhang away. As a result, the golden threads appearing in front were dense, and after breaking through a few feet, the blade light finally collapsed with its blood light greatly diminished.

The Demon Soul was finally shocked.

And the golden threads from all directions continued to close in toward the center without stopping.

Having used the Great Expansion Sword Array once, he was much more proficient at controlling this sword array than last time.

The silver-haired elder to the side was filled with surprise and joy, not knowing that Han Li possessed such unfathomable divine abilities.

The Demon Soul in the center used several evasion techniques, transforming into light black Qi for a moment, then into fine black threads for another, trying to escape from the array. But without exception, they were all blocked by the golden silk threads.

It even transformed its giant blade into four long, strange blades, dancing into a blood-red light ball with all four arms to protect its entire body, then tried to break through again.

The situation became even worse; those golden threads were not only extremely sharp but also contained immense power. If it weren't for the blood-red light blades being able to temporarily block the golden threads' cutting, it would have long been sliced to pieces.

Seeing the sword array shrinking and the golden threads getting closer and closer to the Demon Soul, with only a few zhang of space left to move, the Demon Soul finally couldn't help but raise its two heads and howl. One was coarse, one was sharp; one was masculine, one was feminine.

Han Li frowned inadvertently, and just as he was wondering what the demon wanted to do, another ancient demon in the demonic fire a hundred zhang away let out a similar howl. Then, a giant figure shot out from the flames and flew toward this side.

Wrapped in pitch-black demonic flames, a similarly two-headed, four-armed giant demonic creature, standing six or seven zhang tall, flickered in the firelight. Its flight speed was so fast it seemed to cover a thousand miles in an instant. In the blink of an eye, it was less than a hundred zhang away from Han Li.

Han Li's expression changed drastically.

"Junior Brother! Our reinforcements have arrived too!" Just at this moment, the silver-haired elder said to Han Li with great joy.

Han Li was stunned and turned his gaze, scanning the distance fiercely.

He saw light flashing on both sides of the horizon, and two teams of cultivators were arriving at the same time.

This made Han Li abandon the idea of fleeing that had just risen in his heart.

He looked at the Demon Soul trapped in the sword array, then glanced quickly at the other demonic creature rushing over.

With his mind made up, he suddenly pointed at the purple firebird that had been hovering overhead for a long time, and the bird spread its wings and flew toward the ancient demon flying over.

As for himself, he flipped one palm, and the Blood Demon Sword he had already put away appeared.

In his other palm, blood light flashed, and a blood-misty talisman appeared in his palm, with scarlet blood dragons swimming incessantly on it—it was the Spirit-Descending Talisman he had painstakingly refined.

Although he had used this spirit talisman for a while during the border war, it had only consumed one-third of its power. Now that he had brought it out again, Han Li didn't hesitate to slap the blood talisman onto his body.

Blood light flashed, and the spirit talisman vanished without a trace.

A giant dragon shadow suddenly emerged on Han Li's body, a full ten-odd zhang in size, completely blood-red, exactly the appearance of the eighth-rank poison dragon's true body.

After this dragon shadow emerged, it let out a heaven-shaking roar that caused the entire heaven and earth to change color. Both the ancient demon rushing over and the Demon Soul trapped in the sword array were greatly surprised upon hearing this sound.

The silver-haired elder was left dumbfounded.
