Chapter 894

Han Li looked at the departing figure and felt that Lady Yin Yue, who had transformed into his own likeness, had an aura that had become identical to his own, and he couldn't help but sigh softly.

It seems this woman's illusion technique has advanced another step!

"Senior, do you think Lady Yin Yue's illusionary attainments can deceive the eyes and ears of the two people behind us? Anyway, if I weren't confirming it at such close range, I would be nine times out of ten unable to see through it," Han Li asked suddenly.

"This artifact spirit of yours has an extraordinary origin! It's not just you; her illusionary transformations even give me a feeling of being unable to see through them. It has a quality of becoming stronger when facing the strong and weaker when facing the weak. Relying on those two juniors behind, if that sacred beast isn't making trouble, they certainly won't be able to distinguish the truth from the false in a short time," Great Expansion Divine Monarch gave Han Li an ambiguous answer.

Han Li was speechless for a moment. This sentence didn't make him feel the slightest bit at ease.

Changing his direction, he fled rapidly in the opposite direction of Lady Yin Yue.

Han Li naturally didn't know that by having Lady Yin Yue carry a portion of the Gold-Devouring Beetles away, he had coincidentally used the right method.

Seeing the person in front suddenly split into two and flee in different directions, the purple-haired beauty and the silver-robed woman dozens of miles away couldn't help but look at each other in dismay and stopped their escaping light.

"What is this, an incarnation technique? Even the aura and the strength of the spiritual energy are identical. This brat really has quite a few tricks up his sleeve," the purple-haired beauty brushed the hair on her forehead and clicked her tongue in wonder.

"It's too far away to distinguish the truth from the false with spiritual sense. I'll let the sacred beast take a look," the Tianlan Saintess also said, feeling a great headache.

Afterward, the woman spoke a few low words in an ancient language to the Tianlan Beast beneath her. Immediately, the Tianlan Beast beneath her flickered with green spiritual light, and its pair of ox horns gradually became transparent and clear, as dazzling as crystal. But after a moment, a neighing sound came from the scholar, and the silver-robed woman, having received the answer in her spiritual sense, had her expression change slightly.

"We really have trouble. The other party might know we are tracking by the Gold-Devouring Beetle aura. Surprisingly, both people have Gold-Devouring Beetles on them. This person must have split the spiritual insects into two parts; even the sacred beast cannot distinguish the difference."

"That means we cannot let either of these two escape," the purple-haired beauty said, her eyebrows slightly raised.

"It doesn't matter! We will each chase one. We are so close to him now. This little trick of his to divide us will be useless if used again. Since the other party intends to divide our strength, if we don't properly learn from it, it would be too disrespectful to their painstaking efforts," the silver-robed woman said with a cold sneer.

"That's true. However, I heard this person's cultivation is only at the Core Formation mid-stage, but his divine abilities are not weaker than us at the Core Formation late-stage. But the other party is injured, so even if you encounter the real body, I expect it will be fine. I will chase the other one; as long as the other party doesn't use that ghost escape technique again, I expect to rendezvous with you in a moment," the purple-haired beauty said, still a bit worried, and gave a few instructions.

"Master Sun, rest assured. Although that blood-colored escape technique is strange, it clearly has a high cost to use; otherwise, if the other party had used this escape technique repeatedly, they would have long since shaken us off without a trace. How could they have delayed us until now? I estimate the other party is also at their wit's end. Besides, I have the sacred cauldron to protect me. There is absolutely no problem," the silver-robed woman said proudly after a sweet smile.

"That's also true. Then I'll go first," the beauty replied with a light laugh, then transformed into a purple light and chased after one of the "Han Lis."

As for the Tianlan Saintess, she looked at the other Han Li, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and she similarly drove the sacred beast to chase after him.

"They really separated. Han kid, your division strategy is quite effective? It seems that sacred beast really only descended into this realm with a divided spirit and is not to be feared for now. But if you cannot kill that Tianlan Beast in a very short time, once the unsealing time is up, plus those two great masters returning, you will truly be at a dead end. Moreover, that Tianlan Saintess is probably not someone to be trifled with," Great Expansion Divine Monarch said in a rare tone of concern.

"I have it under control. I don't intend to kill this woman. I only want to destroy that sacred beast. It won't take much time," Han Li replied in a deep voice while monitoring the silver-robed woman chasing behind him with his spiritual sense.

"Oh! Then I will wait and see," Great Expansion Divine Monarch's voice became indifferent again.

Han Li didn't say anything more. Calculating internally that the timing was about right, he circled his escaping light, suddenly turned around, and patted the spirit beast pouch at his waist.

Immediately, the remaining thousands of golden Gold-Devouring Beetles swarmed out from the pouch, buzzing as they transformed into a golden cloud that circled and rose into the sky.

At the same time, dozens of golden flying swords also shot out from his sleeves. Under the urging of his magic formula, they transformed into hundreds of astonishing sword lights, circling incessantly in front of him.

"Combine!"

After performing incantations with both hands, a light shout was issued. The crowd of sword lights trembled slightly and shot into the sky. In the air, the golden light was dazzling, and in the blink of an eye, a giant sword six or seven zhang long took shape.

Han Li opened his mouth again, and a purple flame the size of a fist sprayed upward, transforming into a firebird a chi long in the wind, which dove headfirst into the giant sword.

With a soft "pop" sound, the purple firebird burst open. The giant sword was instantly wrapped in a layer of purple flames, and then countless arcs of electricity as thick as a thumb appeared within the purple flames amidst thunderous sounds, the momentum extremely astonishing!

Seeing this, Han Li frowned. After thinking for a moment, a mass of green Qi suddenly sprayed from his mouth and struck the sword.

Immediately, golden arcs flickered on the surface of the giant sword, but the thunderous sound vanished in an instant.

Only then did Han Li nod with satisfaction. Under the urging of his spiritual sense, the golden sword shot into the high sky, breaking through the air, and in the blink of an eye, it dove into a dark cloud, becoming silent and motionless.

At this time, there were already faint flashes of light on the horizon; that Tianlan Saintess had already caught up.

Han Li's pupils shrank slightly. He shook his sleeves, and a set of green flying swords swam out, while the other sleeve flew out a small blue shield, blocking in front of him.

At the same time, as his two palms flipped, one hand gripped the purple ancient mirror he had never used since obtaining it in the Fallen Devil Valley, and the other hand pinched the Spirit-Descending Talisman that still had one use left. If he used this talisman with his cultivation after unsealing, his cultivation should have increased much more than the previous two times.

Pondering in his heart, he stopped quietly in place, waiting for the other party's arrival.

That sacred beast with an ox head and dragon head, despite its low cultivation, had an escape speed that was truly extraordinarily fast. From the moment it first appeared to the time it flew and stopped about a hundred zhang in front of Han Li, it was almost just the time of a few light breaths.

Han Li coldly sized up the other party, his gaze flickering a few times.

This Tianlan Sacred Beast looked, apart from its strange appearance, truly impossible to tell how powerful it was, and that large ox head even faintly gave people a dull appearance.

Compared to this beast, the Tianlan Saintess standing on it was extremely eye-catching. Whether it was her peerless grace or her profound cultivation that could not be underestimated, both made Han Li not dare to be the slightest bit careless.

After this woman appeared, she also swept a glance at Han Li, revealing a trace of surprise at Han Li's youthful appearance, but her gaze was immediately attracted by the giant insect cloud in the air, and her bright eyes revealed a look of surprise and joy.

"You..." the silver-robed woman hesitated for a moment, looking as if she wanted to ask something.

But Han Li was afraid that the other party would discover the giant sword hidden in the air, and his unsealing time was limited, so how could he waste words with this woman?

Immediately, without a word, he pointed at the insect cloud. With a "buzz," the insect cloud flew directly toward the opposite side. At the same time, the green flying swords circling and dancing in front of him also immediately transformed into sheets of sword shadows, sweeping toward the woman.

"You are courting death!"

Han Li's lack of any action to cherish the fair and pity the jade naturally made the Tianlan Saintess furious. After a delicate shout, she raised her jade hand, and a jade-green bracelet shot out from her wrist, instantly expanding and growing larger, transforming into a giant ring as thick as an arm to meet the sword shadows.

And the woman's other hand similarly snatched the spirit beast pouch from her waist and sacrificed it into the air with a backhand.

The pouch mouth flashed with golden light, and more than ten giant golden flowers flew out, which were exactly more than ten mature golden giant insects, shooting toward the insect cloud.

What the woman didn't notice was that high in the sky, a dark cloud was quietly floating toward the top of her head, getting closer and closer.

That jade ring was clearly an ancient treasure with considerable power. As soon as the green sword shadows came into contact with it, they were all sucked into it after the ring spun rapidly. Han Li immediately felt that his flying swords were having difficulty turning, and his heart felt a chill.

As for those ten or so mature golden insects, once they rushed into Han Li's insect cloud, after some tearing and biting, they also had the upper hand.

Han Li saw clearly that although his flying insects were numerous, they simply couldn't bite these giant insects at all; instead, they were swallowed by these giant insects one by one, much to their delight.

His expression sank. Han Li, without a word, suddenly slapped the Spirit-Descending Talisman in his hand onto his body. Immediately, a blood-colored dragon shadow materialized, and then it attached itself to his body.

His whole body flashed with blood light. Scales of blood color appeared, dragon horns grew from his head, and he transformed into a half-dragon, half-human body.

An astonishing momentum surged from Han Li's body.

"Eh! What kind of cultivation technique is this!" The silver-robed woman witnessed this from afar, her heart filled with surprise. But she was not afraid in the slightest. Opening her mouth, a magic treasure like a handkerchief shot out, and after spinning in front of her for a while, it expanded to several zhang in size and stood straight up.

Only to see that on the giant handkerchief, there was actually an image of a giant silver silkworm embroidered.

Seeing this image, Han Li was startled. Just as he was pondering what divine ability this treasure had, the silver silkworm image on the giant handkerchief shone with spiritual light and suddenly opened its mouth as if it had come alive.

A mass of silver light shot out, and as it grew in the wind, it transformed into slender silver threads, each emitting a "chi-chi" sound, shooting toward Han Li's side.

The space of more than a hundred zhang between the two was instantly filled with these silver threads, which was truly astonishing.

Han Li was startled and, without thinking, pointed at the blue light shield in front of him. This shield immediately transformed into a tall light curtain, protecting him tightly. At the same time, he opened his mouth and sprayed, and a mass of purple flames flew out of the light curtain and burst open.

The strange purple cold light instantly spread over several zhang in front of him.

With a crisp "zi-la" sound, a purple ice wall about ten zhang high stood crystal-clear and beautiful in front of him.
