A Record of a Mortal’s Journey to Immortality

Chapter 743

Breaking the Formation (5)

The white lotus didn’t appear to be formed from any treasure. It was completely condensed from the woman’s magic power and still possessed such threatening might. This greatly surprised Han Li.

However, this thought only flashed through his mind for a moment before he took a deep breath with a gloomy expression. He suddenly raised his right arm, and a layer of faint black Qi covered his arm.

The black Qi continued to expand and contract as if it were alive, and it gradually became denser. When it became pitch-black, Han Li wore a solemn expression.

The entire arm rapidly expanded, and in the blink of an eye, it became two to three times as thick as before. A layer of piercing blood light even appeared on its surface, creating an extremely bizarre sight to behold.

This was none other than the Huhn Devil Execution that Han Li cultivated.

At that moment, Han Li coldly glanced at the green-robed woman.

Coincidentally, the woman had also finished casting her spell. She raised her head and looked at Han Li with her bright eyes. Their gazes met and her eyes fell on Han Li’s demonic arm.

A cold light flashed in her eyes.

“Go!” Han Li shouted without any hesitation.

He waved his arm through the air.

A semicircle of black and red light shot forth from his arm, expanding to several tens of feet in width.

A long streak of light tore through the air and instantly arrived at the area enveloped by the white lotus light.

The green-robed woman raised an eyebrow and opened her mouth to expel a ball of translucent white Qi onto the white lotus. A layer of lotus flower phantoms immediately appeared from the white lotus, enveloping the woman within.

In a flash of light, the shard of light struck the lotus projection. At first, it easily cut through the lotus projection, but after traveling several tens of feet into the lotus projection, its speed was greatly reduced, and it was unable to move in the slightest.

A trace of complacency appeared on the woman’s face, but the expression in her eyes suddenly changed.

Han Li wordlessly tossed out a pitch-black object.

As soon as it left his hand, it swelled violently in the wind, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a black mountain that was over 1,000 feet tall, crashing down toward the woman in the lotus shadow.

“Thousand Layer Mountain!” the woman exclaimed upon seeing the massive mountain.

How could she not know of this renowned ancient treasure among spell warriors?

Even with her mid-Nascent Soul cultivation and the ancient Buddhist secret techniques she was currently using, she definitely wouldn’t dare to take the mountain head-on.

The green-robed woman didn’t have time to think as she formed an incantation gesture with her hands. Her body and the white lotus and the small yellow cauldron above her head connected together in white light and instantly disappeared as a gust of wind.

In the next instant, light flashed over 200 feet away, and the woman reappeared in azure light.

Although the white lotus projection didn’t have the support of the woman’s magic power, it didn’t immediately disappear. However, under the pressure of the huge black mountain, it was only able to withstand the pressure for a moment before disintegrating.

“Wind Escape Technique?” Han Li’s face didn’t reveal the slightest joy. Instead, he muttered to himself and inwardly complained.

He didn’t think that she would be able to use such a strange movement technique that was not inferior to the Lightning Movement Technique.

As such, unless he trapped the other party in a perilous situation, there was practically no way to defeat her.

Even so, Han Li decided to give it a try.

He still didn’t quite believe that his opponent’s Wind Escape Technique was as proficient as his own Thunderstorm Wings. So long as he could get close to his opponent, he believed that with the terrifying power of the Celestial Ice Flames, no matter how strange the white lotus was, it would be easy to heavily injure his opponent.

With that in mind, Han Li pointed at the black-red light and the several tens of Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords that he had finally freed, and they immediately shot toward the green-robed woman.

At the same time, a thunderclap erupted from Han Li’s back as a pair of silver wings spread open behind him.

With a wave of his hands, the blue light shield in front of him rapidly shrunk and shot into Han Li’s sleeve. At the same time, the huge black-red hand that had been holding onto the huge condor above his head also released its grip on the huge ice statue and pounced toward the woman as a ball of black light.

Han Li’s eyes flickered as he raised a hand, upon which a mouthful of blue flames shot forth.

Immediately thereafter, the hand glowed with a dazzling blue light.

Silver arcs of lightning wildly flashed, and Han Li disappeared amid a resounding boom.

While Han Li was taking action, the green-robed woman felt a headache coming on when she saw Han Li continuously displaying all sorts of treasures.

She originally believed that a mere early-Nascent Soul cultivator was only so powerful because of his strange abilities. As long as she was able to neutralize most of his abilities, she should be able to easily take him down.

Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, Han Li had already unleashed four to five powerful treasures. Apart from the huge condor that she had just unleashed, she had been suppressed and attacked by Han Li. This caused her, who had always been revered among the Moulan spell warriors, to gradually grow angry.

However, she also knew that with so many treasures protecting him, it would be difficult for her to heavily injure him, let alone kill him.

When she saw that Han Li had grown wings on his back and disappeared into the lightning, she let out a cold harrumph and decided to use her trump card to kill him.

However, she naturally couldn’t allow Han Li to easily approach her with his Lightning Movement Techniques.

With that in mind, the white lotus above her head descended and disappeared into her head.

At the same time, Han Li’s body flashed with lightning amid a thunderclap, and he appeared thirty to forty feet away from the green-robed woman.

In a flash, he was only three meters away from the woman. Blue flames flashed from his hand as he silently pressed it against the yellow barrier in front of her.

Han Li was 80% certain that he would be able to break through the small cauldron’s wood-attribute light barrier with the Celestial Ice Flames.

The green-robed woman remained motionless in the air despite the fact that the attack had been so easily successful. She had no intention of using her Wind Escape Technique to evade the attack.

Han Li’s heart jolted upon hearing this, and he felt that something was amiss.

Right at this moment, the woman within the light barrier suddenly emitted a soft, milky white light, and white lotus flower petals blossomed from her body.

As soon as Han Li broke through the yellow light barrier, a lotus petal blocked his hand.

As soon as the white light and blue flames came into contact, Han Li felt his arm tremble. In an instant, a vast expanse of white light appeared before his eyes, as if he had been gently swept away by the lotus petal.

Its movements were clearly slow, but he was unable to dodge. He could only watch as the lotus flower struck his body.

Han Li was greatly alarmed!

With a bang, he felt a sharp pain in his chest and was sent flying.

Han Li was only able to forcefully stabilize his body after being sent flying two hundred to three hundred feet away. He came to a shaky stop and pressed a hand to his chest as he looked at the woman with shock.

A huge lotus flower that was several tens of feet in size had suddenly bloomed beneath the green-robed woman’s feet. White lotus petals slowly revolved around her body. The green-robed woman stood within it with an expressionless face as she coldly stared at Han Li.josei

The Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords and the other treasures that followed closely behind were all easily sent flying by these petals. Furthermore, the lotus flower phantoms from before seemed to be far weaker than the petals.

At this moment, Han Li felt a sweetness in his throat and couldn’t help but open his mouth, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Han Li inwardly grinned. This was quite a loss!

With that thought, he let out a breath of turbid air and slowly moved his hand away from his chest, lowering his head to look.

The robe on his chest had already been shattered, revealing a brilliant tri-colored luster.

The armor that he had intentionally concealed in his robes had already sunk in a large area, and there were even several thumb-sized cracks on it.

Han Li sucked in a breath of cold air as the pain in his chest grew more and more intense.

With a dark expression, he raised his head to look at the green-robed woman.

As a result, he happened to see the woman sweep her gaze past his insect armor, and a trace of disappointment and surprise appeared on her face.

With a cold harrumph, Han Li tore off his azure robe, revealing his formidable insect armor.

Soon after, azure light flashed from his hand, and he swept his five fingers toward the damaged armor.

An unbelievable scene ensued. After the azure light brushed past, the dent in the armor quickly closed up.

In the blink of an eye, it returned to its original state as if it were brand new.

The green-robed woman’s expression changed slightly and she revealed a hint of shock. However, she soon regained her icy expression and her killing intent toward Han Li grew even stronger.

Without further thought, she placed her hand in front of her chest and spread her fingers. With a pleasant and obscure incantation, a ball of azure light flew out from her sleeve and circled around before landing in her palm.

The light receded to reveal a bronze oil lantern. It was ancient and dilapidated, to the extent that it was faintly black.

The green-robed woman glanced at the oil lantern with a hint of reluctance on her face. She then turned to Han Li with a fierce expression.

When Han Li saw the woman’s expression, he faintly felt that something was amiss.

Although he didn’t know what kind of ancient treasure this oil lantern was, this was the first time he had seen or heard of such a treasure.

With these thoughts racing through his mind, azure light flashed from Han Li’s body, and he transformed into a streak of azure light that filled the sky, sweeping away all of the treasures. Then, he flapped his wings and disappeared amid a thunderclap.

In the next instant, he appeared in front of the ice sculpture of the huge condor.

Han Li bluntly raised a hand and disappeared amid a series of explosions. Soon after, he appeared at the edge of the dense fog in a certain direction and dove into it without any hesitation.

The green-robed woman’s small mouth was wide open and her face was filled with astonishment.

Ever since her cultivation had reached major success, she had fought countless equally powerful opponents. However, this was the first time she had seen a high-grade cultivator turn around and flee without hesitation.

However, when the woman saw that Han Li had taken the huge condor with him, she immediately woke up from her shock and anger. She let loose a delicate cry and stepped on the white lotus with the lantern in her hand. She then turned into a light breeze and chased after Han Li.

She also disappeared into the dense fog.

Immediately thereafter, silver lightning and azure light flashed incessantly in the sea of mist, accompanied by the sounds of thunder and wind.

In the blink of an eye, Han Li lured the green-robed woman to an unfamiliar place.

Silver light flashed from Han Li’s body, and he came to a stop.

He lowered his head to look at the blue ice sculpture in his hand and sneered. Suddenly, golden lightning flashed in his hand and the ice sculpture shattered.
