A Record of a Mortal’s Journey to Immortality

Ruthless and Vicious

“Divine Devilbane Lightning!” The black-robed woman, who was originally enraged and about to use a Devil Dao secret technique to attack, cried out in alarm.

Before she could say anything, Han Li waved his hands, and a golden net came crashing down.

A hint of astonishment appeared in the woman’s eyes as she turned into a wisp of smoke and shot back, narrowly avoiding the golden net.

Han Li was expressionless. He spread the Thunderstorm Wings on his back and disappeared from the spot.

When the black-robed woman saw this, she immediately recalled the rumors about Han Li. She hurriedly formed a hand seal and her body swayed slightly.

In a blur, seven or eight identical women stood side by side. These women seemed to be real people, and their movements were unanimous as they suddenly scattered in all directions.

All of them transformed into streaks of yellow light, making it impossible to tell which was the true body of the black-robed woman!

Silver arcs of lightning flashed, and Han Li appeared at the spot where the woman had been standing.

He looked at the many streaks of light that had scattered in all directions, but he didn’t panic in the slightest. Instead, a cold smile appeared on his face.

Spiritual power suddenly poured into his eyes, and blue light flickered in the depths of his pupils. He used the divine power of Brightsight Spirit Eyes.

Han Li raised his head and looked into the distance.

All of the yellow lights were dim and the spiritual Qi was thin. They were all projections.

Han Li was shocked and hurriedly looked to his left and right, but he suddenly realized that a barely visible smoke shadow was silently escaping behind him.

The woman had used these phantoms to distract him, but her true body hadn’t blended in and fled far away. Instead, she had taken the opportunity to conceal herself and launch a sneak attack on him.

This woman was truly bold.

If it weren’t for his Brightsight Spirit Eyes, he wouldn’t have been able to find her with his spiritual sense alone. This woman’s concealment technique was probably not inferior to Silvermoon’s.

Han Li was a little shocked, but he did not say anything. He turned around and flew directly towards the giant ape, as if he had no intention of chasing after the black-robed woman.

The smoke had already reached several tens of feet behind Han Li. After a slight pause, the woman’s figure silently appeared. One of her hands flashed with an inch-long yellow light and stabbed directly into Han Li’s back like lightning.

Judging from its direction, it was accurate and ruthless. It was precisely where his heart was located. If this woman’s claw were to strike him, his heart would definitely be crushed and his body would be destroyed.

However, just as this woman stretched out her hand, Han Li’s body seemed to sway casually. Then, his face turned around at a speed that was difficult to see with the naked eye, directly facing the woman.

He opened his mouth slightly and golden light gushed out.

“Ah!” The black-robed woman’s face paled and she hastily turned to the side.

However, it was already too late. At such a close distance, there was no way to dodge.

With a bang, a bolt of golden lightning shot out from Han Li’s mouth and struck the woman’s shoulder.

A burnt smell immediately wafted through the air. The woman let out a miserable cry and plummeted from the sky.

As for Han Li, he spread his wings and instantly disappeared amidst the thunderclaps. However, he suddenly appeared behind the descending woman in a flash of lightning. A palm that was covered in faint blue flames gently pressed against the woman’s neck.

With a crackle, a thick layer of blue ice enshrouded her body.

The black-robed woman felt a chill run down her spine and she lost consciousness. She turned into an ice statue and plummeted from the sky.

Han Li floated in the air without moving, but he raised his other hand, which he had already prepared. Countless thin arcs of lightning shot out, and a golden net wrapped around the ice statue.

A cold expression flashed across Han Li’s face, and the ice statue’s body glowed with golden light. Amidst a series of cracking sounds, the black-robed woman’s body turned into specks of ice light and disappeared without a trace.

The only remnant in the lightning net was a female Nascent Soul cultivator with a picturesque appearance. The Nascent Soul’s face was deathly pale as if it knew how powerful the Divine Devilbane Lightning was.

Han Li’s eyes flickered and he shook the golden lightning in his hand, preparing to destroy the Nascent Soul.

The black-robed woman’s Nascent Soul suddenly let out a sharp cry.

“You can’t kill me. I’m the companion of the Master of the Devil Dao Yin Sifting Sect. If you kill me, I’ll definitely fight you to the death!”

“The companion of the Yin Sifting Sect’s Master!” Hearing this, Han Li coldly looked at the Nascent Soul for a moment. Suddenly, he silently released the lightning net in his hand and turned to leave.

The woman’s Nascent Soul was stunned for a moment before flying out of the gap in elation. However, her heart was filled with the malicious thought of how to take revenge on Han Li after she escaped.

However, at this moment, Han Li, who was more than 100 feet away, thought to himself.

The golden net suddenly tightened and wrapped around the Nascent Soul cultivator. Immediately thereafter, arcs of lightning flickered and exploded amid thunderclaps.

The black-robed woman’s Nascent Soul was reduced to ashes before it could even let out a wail.

“I’ve already destroyed your body. Do you think I’ll let you go back and take revenge?” Han Li muttered helplessly and sighed deeply.

Then, he flew toward the huge ape without looking back.

From the moment the black-robed woman flew over to the moment Han Li used the Divine Devilbane Lightning to kill her, it seemed a little complicated, but it had happened very quickly.

It wasn’t that the shriveled old man didn’t want to rescue the woman. In the instant that she was in danger, he stamped his foot and shot forward in a streak of golden light.

However, right at this moment, a streak of pink light suddenly shot forth from the other side, transforming into a vast expanse of pink mist that directly collided with the golden light.

After a series of booms, the cloud was dispersed, but it was still able to block the golden light.

The golden light receded to reveal the shriveled old man. His face was incomparably livid as he stared at the pink cloud with flames burning in his eyes.

He truly didn’t know how furious the Yin Sifting Sect’s Master would be if he found out that his companion had been killed.

All of a sudden, he loathed Han Li and the person blocking the way!

A feminine laugh sounded from within the clouds. Soon after, the clouds gradually dissipated, revealing a handsome, feminine youth.

It was the Harmonious Bond Sect’s Old Devil Cloud Dew!

“Fellow Daoist Han, you saved me once, and I’ll help you once. I don’t owe you anything in the future.” The old devil chuckled and glanced at Han Li.

At this moment, Han Li had just killed the black-robed woman and was flying over. When he heard this, he calmly said, “It was a coincidence that I was able to save you. I’ve never thought of asking you to repay me. However, I’m afraid Divine Sage Zhu isn’t someone the two of us can deal with. Besides, do you really think he’s alone?”

After saying this, Han Li swept his gaze behind the shriveled old man. He saw that apart from the black-robed men who were still controlling the refined corpses and desperately dodging the massacre of the giant ape, the spell warriors had already pressed forward in a black mass.

Even someone as bold as Old Devil Cloud Dew changed his expression upon seeing so many spell warriors charging toward him.

Han Li had to use two lightning beads to save this old devil by luck under the obstruction of many green fire birds. Just as Han Li was about to join forces with this old devil and think about what to do next, however, the Yin Sifting Sect released a large number of bronze-armored refined corpses. Han Li did not do anything.

The Weeping Soul Beast in the spirit beast pouch at his waist immediately began to stir with excitement.

Because Han Li had completely refined the Weeping Soul Pearl, he could naturally sense it very clearly.

He immediately released it out of curiosity. As soon as the Weeping Soul Beast emerged from the spirit beast pouch, its body swelled drastically and it transformed into a huge black ape, wildly absorbing the corpse Qi from the refined corpses.

This greatly surprised Han Li.

Han Li knew that the Weeping Soul Beast could devour souls and ghosts, but it was also useful for corpses refined by cultivators. This was somewhat unexpected.

It was unknown whether it was due to the Weeping Soul Beast’s innate abilities or whether it was a strange ability that the Weeping Soul Beast had acquired after evolving.

Regardless, this was a pleasant surprise to Han Li.

But now, with so many spell warriors surrounding them, Han Li and Old Devil Cloud Dew looked at each other and immediately wanted to retreat.

However, the Weeping Soul Beast was still wreaking havoc among the refined corpses. Han Li was extremely unwilling to leave it here.

Just as Han Li was about to use the Weeping Soul Pearl to control the Weeping Soul Beast to quietly withdraw, loud laughter suddenly came from behind them.

“There’s no need to be afraid. Since Fellow Daoist Han has this strange beast to deal with these refined corpses, let us deal with these people.” It was Long Han’s voice.

Han Li’s heart stirred, and he hurriedly looked behind him, only to see that a few hundred feet away, Long Han had also arrived with a group of cultivators and was sizing them up.

Han Li was overjoyed. It was no wonder that these spell warriors did not immediately attack them. It seemed that they only treated them seriously after seeing the reinforcements.

When Long Han saw Han Li’s demonic appearance, surprise flashed across her eyes, but she immediately acted as if nothing had happened.

Now was not the time to get to the bottom of this. All the cultivators turned their gazes to the spell warriors in front of them.

At this moment, after a bitter battle, some battles had finally begun to show the victors.

Both sides had a few victories and losses. Their casualties were similar. However, this was not a sparring match. The losers would most likely lose their lives, but even if the victors were exhausted and used up most of their magic power, they would still quickly be drawn into a new battle.

Long Han had just sent other cultivators to Feng Bing and the female cultivator surnamed Bai to fight Tian Zhong and replace his partner. Only when the couple joined forces could they truly display their strength.

At this point, neither Long Han nor the shriveled old man had anything else to say.

Long Han waved his hand.

The cultivators that had yet to take action were naturally elites. Spiritual light immediately erupted from the bodies of the cultivators behind them as they unleashed all sorts of magic treasures in a grand assault.

The spell warriors opposite them weren’t ordinary either. He also unleashed all kinds of spiritual Qi.

All of a sudden, the last two armies of the spell warriors clashed.

Although there was a late-Nascent Soul Divine Sage on the other side, there was Old Devil Cloud Dew, Long Han, and three other mid-Nascent Soul cultivators here. If they joined forces, they could manage to deal with them.

Han Li originally wanted to join the attack on the shriveled old man, but after his gaze swept past the huge green bird, his expression could not help but change several times.
