Devouring Devils and Ghosts
All of the white skulls let out a howl and spat out green phosphorescence flames as they charged towards Han Li. Naturally, after they rushed several tens of feet away, countless golden threads appeared and quickly flashed past.
However, this time, a different situation occurred.
After the golden threads swept past, although a few thin cracks appeared on the surface of the skulls, after a green light flashed, they healed as if they had not suffered any damage. The skulls were not hindered at all and continued to pounce on Han Li.
When Han Li saw this, he was stunned at first, but then he understood. These ghost skulls were no longer made of flesh and blood. He did not know what kind of strange ghostly body they had been refined into. Although his sword threads were powerful, the other party had become invisible and was not harmed by swords and sabers. Naturally, he could not kill them.
However, Han Li did not panic and activated the spell in his heart again.
A loud thunderclap erupted in the air in front of the ghost skulls, and a net of golden lightning suddenly appeared in the air, directly enveloping them.
Since the other party was ghosts, Han Li naturally activated the Divine Devilbane Lightning in his flying swords.
However, what surprised Han Li was that when these ghost skulls saw the golden net appear, although they all paused and revealed a trace of fear, under the sharp howl of the curved-horned ghost skull in the lead, they opened their mouths one after another, and jade-green ghost flames rushed towards the golden net like a shocking rainbow.
Loud thunderclaps erupted as arcs of golden lightning flashed through the golden net, eradicating many of the ghostly flames in an instant. However, the relentless barrage of ghostly flames was able to stop the descent of the golden lightning net.
Han Li frowned and revealed a surprised expression.
If it were an ordinary ghost fire, it would naturally be reduced to ashes upon contact with the Divine Devilbane Lightning. However, although the ghost fire of these skulls seemed to be restrained, it was actually able to withstand the power of the lightning arcs. This really surprised Han Li. This Ghost Sifting Banner was known as the Yin Sifting Sect’s ultimate treasure. It was not a boast.
On the other side, the black-robed youth couldn’t help but smile and heave a sigh of relief when he saw that the devils in the banner were able to block the Divine Devilbane Lightning.
Although he appeared to be completely confident, he was actually feeling quite uneasy.
If the banner hadn’t been damaged and the devils’ vitality had been completely exhausted, he wouldn’t have been too worried. However, ever since the last battle, the banner hadn’t had the opportunity to absorb a large amount of Yin souls to repair itself. Now that he was facing a wondrous item like the Divine Devilbane Lightning, he naturally felt uneasy.
Now that his worries were gone, a sinister smile appeared on the young man’s face as he continuously struck the flag with an incantation gesture. The meter-wide hole in the flag expanded to three meters in diameter in a flash of green light.
More and more skulls swarmed out of the banner, emitting all sorts of sharp screeches. The ghostly auras in the surroundings surged as wails rang out.
With many skulls blocking the golden net in front, the other ghost skulls that flew out from the banner behind rushed out of the sword formation without any hesitation and pounced fiercely at Han Li.
For a time, ghostly howls filled the air in front of Han Li.
When Han Li saw this, he did not panic at all. He silently raised his hand and gently patted a spirit beast pouch at his waist.
A streak of black light shot out from the pouch and circled around before landing on the ground. The light faded to reveal a small black monkey. It was none other than the Weeping Soul Beast.
The beast appeared to have just woken up. It blinked its lifeless eyes before sniffing the air with its large nose, and its eyes suddenly opened wide.
It immediately spotted the ghost skulls nearby and began to squeak with excitement.
The originally aggressive skulls had already swarmed over 100 feet in front of Han Li. When they saw the Weeping Soul Beast, they suddenly trembled and immediately circled in place, unwilling to take another step forward. At the same time, the ghost howls in their mouths also lessened by more than half, revealing fear.
When the black-robed youth saw this, his heart thumped, and the golden threads of the sword formation suddenly appeared closer to him. In a moment of desperation, he opened his hand and spat out a streak of grey light, gently circling it around his palm.
All of a sudden, the five severed fingers fell from his hand and exploded into five mists of blood. A short moment later, they arrived in front of the curved-horned skull.
Gloomy flames flickered from the ghost skull’s eyes and it immediately opened its mouth, sucking in the blood mist. The ghost flames around its body grew by a foot and it let loose a furious roar.
Under his coercion, the other skulls opened their mouths at the same time and spat out green ghost flames at the Weeping Soul Beast.
When the Weeping Soul Beast saw this, it struck its chest and black light coiled around its body, instantly expanding its body to several tens of feet tall. It harrumphed and released a yellow mist from its nose.
As soon as the ghost flames came into contact with the yellow light, they were immediately drawn into it. Afterwards, the yellow light didn’t slow down in the slightest and directly rushed into the group of ghost skulls behind it.
Wherever the light passed, all of the skulls were sucked into it without any resistance.
When the other ghost skulls saw this, they scattered in all directions.
Even though the bull-horned ghost skull was enraged, it was useless.
At that moment, the light arrived above this ghost skull and enveloped it.
When the bull-horned ghost skull saw this, green light flashed from its eyes and a large amount of green smoke suddenly erupted from its body, condensing into a humanoid form.
A 20-foot-tall malevolent ghost with curved horns appeared on the spot. As soon as it appeared, it immediately raised its hands, and countless bolts of black lightning and fire flew out from its hands toward the yellow mist.
As soon as the lightning and fire entered the light, they disappeared without a trace.
When the malevolent ghost saw this, it turned around in fear, but it was too late.
As soon as the yellow mist descended, it was instantly sucked into it, leaving the original spot completely empty.
Multicolored light instantly shot back into the Weeping Soul Beast’s mouth before shooting out from its nose again. In the blink of an eye, all of the skulls in the air had been swept away.
When the black-robed youth saw this, he was both shocked and furious.
Although he knew that Han Li had a demonic giant ape that could devour corpse Qi and most of the Yin Sifting Sect’s Copper-armored Corpses were consumed in its mouth, he did not take it to heart when he first heard it. However, he did not expect that this spirit beast could directly devour the Yin Sifting Banner’s primordial Yin devils. Even the main devil did not have the slightest ability to resist and was swept into the stomach of this giant ape. How could he not be shocked and fearful?
If he knew that the other party’s spirit beast had the ability to devour demons and ghosts, he definitely wouldn’t have volunteered to come alone. And if the other elders of the sect knew that the guy’s spirit beast had this ability, they would probably be restless. This was even more of a threat than the Golden Lightning Bamboo to their Yin Sifting Sect.
The black-robed youth’s thoughts passed in the blink of an eye, and his heart was filled with regret.
At this moment, the golden threads were only twenty to thirty feet away, and he could no longer maintain his calm. He hastily slapped his storage pouch.
Seven or eight treasures flew out of the pouch, transforming into balls of light of various colors.
As soon as the restrictions of the sword formation appeared, countless golden threads flashed through the air. All of the treasures were cut into pieces, turning into scrap metal that fell to the ground.
The young man’s face turned deathly pale.
In his panic, he couldn’t care less about the sect ultimate treasure. He suddenly waved his hand and the Ghost Sifting Banner in front of him flew into his hand as a streak of black light. Then, he gritted his teeth and held the banner with both hands. His body spun on the spot and merged into the banner, transforming into a ball of eerie green mist that suddenly tore through the sky.
He could only hope that this sect ultimate treasure would be able to temporarily withstand the sword formation’s restrictions and help him escape.
Otherwise, with the power of this sword formation, if he continued to stay where he was, he would only die.
When Han Li saw this, he knew that the other party was at his wit’s end and was desperate. With a thought, he opened his mouth and spat out a ball of golden lightning.
As soon as the golden ball left his mouth, it immediately shot into the air and exploded.
A huge golden net covered an area of over 100 feet from top to bottom.
At that moment, the black-robed youth’s mist was trapped at the edge of the sword formation by the golden threads. Over a hundred golden threads intertwined and flickered outside the gloomy mist, and with every flash, a portion of the mist would be cut off. In the blink of an eye, more than half of the protective mist had been removed.
The ball of mist scattered in all directions in an attempt to escape, but it was a pity that there were far too many golden threads surrounding it. There was no way to escape. When it crashed into the golden threads, it was immediately blocked and repelled.
The black-robed youth had become a cornered beast.
“Do you really want to exterminate me? Do you not want the method to undo the Soul Seal Curse?” Seeing that there was only a thin layer of mist left, the youth’s furious shout sounded from within the mist.
“Don’t worry, I’ll naturally know everything I want to know from your primordial spirit,” Han Li said indifferently without changing his expression.
“You want to use the Soul Searching Technique? Don’t even think about it. Ah…” In his fear, the young man only had time to say a few more words before the last layer of the protective mist was finally cut off by the golden threads. After a miserable cry, his body was instantly torn to pieces by the golden threads. Only a ball of green light wrapped around his Nascent Soul and he took this opportunity to shoot out.
However, the golden net formed by the Divine Devilbane Lightning had long been set up outside. Han Li spat out the word “Shrink” and pointed at the golden net. Immediately, the huge golden net shrank.
The young man’s Nascent Soul charged left and right in the net. As soon as it came into contact with the golden net, lightning immediately flashed, and it let out miserable cries. There was no way for it to escape.
“If you want to use the Soul Searching Technique, I won’t let you succeed even if I have to detonate my Nascent Soul.” The Nascent Soul suddenly let out a scream and shouted with extreme resentment.
“Detonate your Nascent Soul!” Han Li frowned, and the golden net instantly stopped shrinking.
When the Nascent Soul saw this, it was overjoyed and hurriedly shrieked,
“As long as you let my Nascent Soul go, I’ll tell you the method to dissolve the curse and let you save your dual cultivation partner. Otherwise, I won’t let you obtain the method to save me even if I die.”
Han Li did not say anything, but his gaze flickered as if he was considering the pros and cons. But at this moment, light appeared above the Nascent Soul, and a purple net suddenly spread out, instantly enveloping the Nascent Soul and immediately wrapping it tightly.
At the same time, white light flashed behind the Nascent Soul, and Silvermoon silently appeared.
She opened her red lips and spat out a ball of pink fragrant mist. At the same time, she flicked her fingers, and over ten streaks of silver light shot forth.
