Chapter 984: Evil Moon Illusion Mirror

The black-clad beautiful woman on the side saw Han Li drive so many extraordinary treasures and was immediately greatly encouraged.

She raised her hand to sacrifice the small green shield, blocking it in front of her, and then patted her storage pouch. Immediately, two butterfly-shaped treasures flew out, dancing gracefully before her as if they were living things.

As a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, this woman naturally had more than just these treasures, but cultivator battles didn't mean that the more treasures one sacrificed, the more advantageous it was.

Even for a multi-treasure cultivator, once the spiritual sense used to drive the treasures reached a certain limit, they wouldn't use other treasures. After all, in a battle, besides relying on treasures, one also had to retain a certain amount of spiritual sense to cast spells.

As for how much spiritual sense to retain, it depended on the individual's situation.

If one felt their treasures were sharp but their spells were weak, they would naturally allocate more spiritual sense to sacrificing treasures. And if their treasures were ordinary but they were proficient in powerful secret techniques, they would retain more spiritual sense to cast spells.

Besides that, the more powerful the treasure, the more spiritual sense it generally occupied. This was also the reason why it was rare for Core Formation cultivators to drive ancient treasures, and why cultivators, no matter how strong their spiritual sense was, would only choose a few high-power treasures to fight. Han Li releasing so many treasures at once, even without retaining much spiritual sense, was enough to show how strong his spiritual sense was.

But before Han Li and the woman could join forces, a fierce light flashed in the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha's eyes. Its entire body suddenly released an extremely vast aura, and then it bowed its body and struck down hard with one palm.

With a muffled 'Bang', the monster pressed its five fingers open against the ground.

Han Li and the beautiful woman were both stunned. Before they understood the monster's intention, a rumbling sound echoed throughout the plaza. The giant formation on the ground suddenly flared with various colors of light, and the stone pillars binding the dried corpses also shook suddenly.

"Not good!" Han Li's expression changed. Without thinking, he flicked his wings, and his body and all the treasures around him disappeared from the spot in an instant, leaving only the golden cloud formed by the Gold-Devouring Beetles and the Soul-Crying Beast.

Seeing this, the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha let out a ferocious laugh. After a cluster of black light emerged from its body, its wings moved, and it also disappeared from the spot.

With a loud "Boom," a mass of black light and silver radiance appeared simultaneously at the edge of the magic array. The two collided, bursting with ten thousand rays of light, and then both shook and shot backward, revealing two winged human figures—it was exactly Han Li and the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha.

And during this delay, black gas emerged from the dried corpses on the stone pillars all around. Following that, streams of black light pillars shot up into the sky from the stone pillars, and in the blink of an eye, a layer of pitch-black, massive light screen enveloped the entire plaza.

Han Li and the others had their retreat cut off for a time, actually trapped within the light screen.

When the formation showed signs of abnormality, the black-clad beautiful woman also knew it was bad and immediately turned into a streak of light, shooting outward. But with her flight speed, she had only flown twenty feet when the light screen had already formed, and she could only stop her flight helplessly, her expression fluctuating.

Han Li looked at the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha in the black light, his expression gloomy, and he felt a bit annoyed in his heart.

Because at this moment, five blood-colored rings appeared on the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha's limbs and neck, their light flickering non-stop, clearly some kind of restraining magic tool.

"You really can't leave this place. Otherwise, with your divine abilities, why would you be willing to stay here and not go out? It's just unexpected that this formation could be activated by you without spirit stones. You can't leave the range of this formation, right!" Han Li exhaled and said coldly.

At this moment, the light of the formation gradually disappeared, but the black gas shrouding the stone pillars around the light screen showed no signs of weakening.

"Hehe! This Demon-Trapping Formation was indeed set up specifically to trap me, but the person who set up this formation back then didn't expect that after so many years, half of the formation's restrictions would instead be used by me. Although I am restricted and cannot leave this place, you are also trapped within it," the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha flapped its wings lightly, letting out a triumphant laugh.

Cold light flashed in Han Li's eyes. The Soul-Crying Beast below suddenly snorted with its nose, and a blinding yellow rosy light sprayed out, sweeping directly toward the flying corpse in the air, its speed extremely fast, reaching the front in the blink of an eye.

The Silver-Winged Winged Yecha's laughter stopped abruptly. Its wings flapped violently, and its body disappeared from the spot before the rosy light could make contact.

But the next moment, the monster reappeared on top of the emerald bamboo.

But the Soul-Crying Beast's head swayed, and the large sheet of yellow rosy light still followed and swept over, unwilling to give up.

This aroused the ferocity of the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha's silver eyes. It stared, and suddenly its wings flapped violently. Immediately, countless silver rays shot out from its wings, colliding head-on with the Soul-Crying Beast's yellow rosy light. The yellow rosy light, which should have been invincible against ghost techniques, was actually blocked by these silver rays and failed to overcome them.

Although Han Li knew that the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha was not an ordinary refined corpse, seeing this scene, his heart also felt a chill.

Seeing this scene, the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha's original fear disappeared by more than half. With a ferocious laugh, its body swayed slightly, disappeared in a cluster of black light, and suddenly appeared above the Soul-Crying Beast. It opened its mouth wide, black light flickering within, as if it were about to spray something out.

But just at this moment, it suddenly heard a loud buzzing sound above its head. Startled, it raised its head, and a pitch-black light pillar sprayed out, striking a golden cloud over a foot in size that was falling head-on. It was precisely Han Li's Gold-Devouring Beetle swarm.

After Han Li used his thunder escape technique, this beetle swarm had remained in the air motionless. Now that the flying corpse appeared near them, with a thought from Han Li, they naturally attacked without the slightest politeness.

But the black light pillar was Corpse Qi that the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha had cultivated for countless tens of thousands of years. Not only was it filthy and extremely cold, but it also carried extremely powerful corpse poison.

Even though the Gold-Devouring Beetles had bodies as hard as iron and were immune to all poisons, under this impact of Corpse Qi, they fell from the sky one after another like rain. In the blink of an eye, the swarm had lost one-third of its members.

The remaining Gold-Devouring Beetles were startled and scattered in all directions, no longer gathering together.

But with this moment of support, the Soul-Crying Beast had already reacted. After a snort, another burst of yellow rosy light flew upward.

The Silver-Winged Winged Yecha calmly moved its wings, and its body appeared ten feet away.

The rosy light naturally swept through empty air.

And just at this moment, where the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha had originally stood, silver light flickered, and Han Li appeared there amidst the sound of thunder.

Without a word, he flicked his sleeve, and the swarm of golden flying swords transformed into a sheet of golden light, sweeping toward the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha. At the same time, the purple mirror hovering above also flashed with light, spraying out a purple light pillar that followed the sword light. And Han Li's finger inside his sleeve flicked quietly, and a red line disappeared without a trace in a flash.

Only then did he glance at the ground with an expressionless face, seeing those Gold-Devouring Beetles that had originally fallen to the ground suddenly flap their wings, taking to the air again, though they appeared weak and listless.

Han Li felt slightly relieved in his heart.

At this moment, the black-clad beautiful woman on the side also took this opportunity to point at the two white jade butterflies.

The two jade butterflies swelled in size amidst white light, transforming into the size of a person. Afterward, their wings flapped wildly, and two white, misty hurricanes formed before the woman in an instant.

Following that, amidst the woman's incantations, the hurricanes transformed into two white wind dragons, pouncing toward the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha with great momentum.

Seeing so many attacks coming simultaneously, the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha grinned and let out a sinister laugh. Suddenly, it raised both hands, the Evil Moon Illusion Mirror appearing on one hand, and a light ball the size of a fist appearing on the other with a 'Puff' sound.

This light ball was grey and misty, flashing with cold, eerie light.

Glancing coldly at the golden sword light that attacked first, the monster didn't hesitate to bring its two hands together. The light ball actually sank into the mirror surface and disappeared without a trace. Immediately, black light flashed in the mirror, and countless light balls identical to the previous ones surged out from within, rapidly fusing together.

In the blink of an eye, a giant light ball several feet in diameter appeared, wrapping the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha inside without the slightest politeness.

Dazzling golden light flickered, and the sword light slashed fiercely onto the light ball.

After a light 'Bang', the giant light ball shattered like a bubble, but these fragments flashed and transformed into even more small light balls.

But the golden light had already swept past the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha in a flash. Golden light flickered, dozens of flying swords intertwined, and the flying corpse was slashed into countless pieces, after which the sword light shot out from the many small light balls without hesitation.

Seeing this scene, Han Li felt no joy but was instead shocked. He didn't believe at all that he could kill this monster just by relying on flying swords.

Sure enough, an unbelievable scene appeared immediately.

Those small light balls gathered toward the center, and while fusing into a large light ball again, the shattered corpse blurred, and the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha reappeared within the giant light ball, completely unharmed, as if nothing had happened.

Han Li frowned.

At this time, the purple light pillar from behind and the two wind dragons from the black-clad beautiful woman also attacked with great momentum.

The same strange scene appeared.

The giant light ball shattered again, and the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha was shredded into powder by the wind dragons and light pillar again, but when the light ball restored itself, the flying corpse reappeared within the light ball completely unharmed, as if it were an immortal body.

The Silver-Winged Winged Yecha looked at the two with a cold sneer, having no other actions. But the black mirror in its hand continued to surge with light balls non-stop, causing the volume of the giant light ball to reach over ten feet wide and still growing wildly.

Han Li's face showed a hint of solemnity. Although he didn't know what would happen if he were wrapped in this light ball, it definitely wasn't anything good.

While the black-clad beautiful woman was shocked in her heart, she didn't hesitate to pinch a magic seal with both hands, manipulating the two wind dragons to launch a second round of attacks.

Immediately, the two wind dragons circled and pounced into the light ball again, shattering easily. The Silver-Winged Winged Yecha was also easily killed again like a phantom, but this time the wind dragons didn't leave the light ball. Instead, they opened their mouths wide, and countless white, misty wind blades sprayed out from their mouths, shooting in all directions. Immediately, before these small light balls could condense and gather again, they were shattered into even smaller existences.

For a time, at the core of the original light ball, wild winds raged, and sharp whistling sounds arose.

Han Li didn't urge the swarm of flying swords hovering nearby to join the attack, but narrowed his eyes and stared at all this in silence, blue light flickering deep within his pupils.
