Before the ice sculpture finished speaking, the Refined Flame Firebird let out a clear cry, spread its wings, and rushed up.
The Profound Ice Origin Slashing Sword that had already fallen suffered a heavy blow, and all the blue light was forced back. The sword also sank back into the circular inscription and disappeared.
The Refined Flame Firebird showed its power, but it was not willing to stop. Flames surged behind it, and countless silver fireballs shot out like a peacock spreading its tail. They continuously hit the light screen of the Lan siblings' fusion.
The light screen of the Lan siblings suddenly became unstable, and under a great tremor, cracks appeared.
After a while, the sound of ice crystals shattering could be heard. The five androgynous statues all had cracks on them, and they actually shattered one after another.
Immediately after, the light screen of the Lan siblings also disappeared, but the aura of the Lan siblings also disappeared.
After Han Li escaped, he still felt that the cold air around him had not receded, and his limbs were a little numb.
He waved his hand, and the Refined Flame Firebird immediately flew back and landed on his shoulder.
Han Li only felt a warmth on his shoulder, and a warm current flowed through his body. There were traces of cold air that could be seen with the naked eye seeping out of the surface of his body, and finally disappeared.
He looked around, and saw that all the metal beasts had disappeared. The members of the advance party that came with them were all killed, and no one survived.
Deputy Pavilion Leader Zhao was torn into two by the metal beasts, and Yu Kuohai was affected by the cold air from before. He leaned against a golden stone pillar and was frozen to death.
Han Li's face darkened, and he patted the Refined Flame Firebird sitting on his shoulder. He put it back into his body, and walked into the depths of the space.
Since the other party was really the Lan siblings sent by the Heavenly Court, and they found his traces here, then he had to finish them off as soon as possible. If he let them return to the Heavenly Court, then his situation would be troublesome.
…
The people outside the stone door waited for a long time, and seeing that there was no more movement inside, they all looked inside with a strange expression.
"Let's not wait anymore, let's go in too," Jin Liu said after thinking for a long time.
When the other sects heard this, they all looked at each other, and no one moved.
After all, the commotion inside was too terrifying, and they still had some lingering fear in their hearts.
"The commotion inside has stopped for a long time. The advance party has most likely passed through and left on their own. If we don't hurry, I'm afraid we won't even be able to eat the dust behind us," Jin Liu said with a cold expression.
When everyone heard this, their expressions couldn't help but change, revealing some hesitation.
Jin Liu glanced at Su Liqian, and the two of them stepped through the stone door and walked in.
Seeing this, the rest of the people followed suit.
Everyone frowned when they felt the effects of the Metal Force Field on their bodies.
However, after they walked for a while, their expressions became filled with terror. They saw that the ground around them was a mess, and there were pieces of corpses everywhere. It looked like purgatory.
"What exactly is happening …" Valley Master Fu's face turned pale as he muttered to himself.
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the top of a golden stone pillar beside him in horror.
With an angry roar, a metal beast that looked like a jackal pounced down from above, and pressed him under its body at lightning speed.
Immediately after, metal beasts appeared one after another in the surroundings, and a wave of fighting cries rang out again …
At the same time, Han Li had already arrived in front of a stone door in the depths of the space.
The door of the stone door was half-closed, and it was obvious that the Lan siblings had already escaped inside.
Han Li's divine sense swept the surroundings, and he also entered in a flash.
Outside the stone door, there was a spacious hall. There were no furnishings in the hall, only a wide bluish-black stone staircase, winding up to the top.
Han Li followed the stone staircase all the way up, and at the end of the stone staircase stood a dark red door of light. It looked like a teleportation door, and he didn't know where it led to.
He probed carefully with his divine sense, but found that it couldn't penetrate at all, and he couldn't find out what was inside.
After a slight hesitation, he still went in with a flash.
Han Li only felt his vision blur, and then he appeared in a crimson world.
This was completely different from the first level. It was an open land, and there were red clouds floating in the dark red sky. There was a boundless crimson desert all around, and it was filled with a sense of extreme heat.
A tall stone door stood abruptly behind him, and in the middle was a pitch-black light curtain, which fluctuated slightly.
Next to the stone door stood a stone tablet, on which a huge "two" was written. The characters were like dancing dragons and phoenixes, exuding an inexplicable aura.
Han Li subconsciously swept the surroundings with his divine sense, and found that this level was different from the first level. Although his divine sense was still restricted, he could just barely spread it out.
Lan Yuanzi and Lan Yan were still nowhere to be seen, but their auras still lingered in the Void, and they had escaped into the distance.
After confirming that there was nothing unusual around, Han Li immediately flew out, turning into a golden rainbow, and chased after the two.
"Huh!"
As soon as he flew, he immediately felt that there was a special restriction in the surrounding Void, emitting fluctuations of the power of time, which reduced his speed to only half of his usual speed.
"This restriction is rather similar to my time spirit domain, but my spirit domain doesn't have any restrictions on the range of one's spiritual sense..." Han Li was quite surprised to hear this, and he quickly cast these thoughts aside as he began to activate his True Wheel Reversal ability.
Since the restriction here was related to the laws of time, the Reverse True Wheel magic power should be effective.
Swish!
As expected, as soon as he used the Reverse True Wheel, the speed of the golden rainbow suddenly increased, almost returning to its usual speed, and he shot forward like a bolt of lightning.
But a moment later, Lan Yuanzi and Lan Yan appeared in the range of Han Li's divine sense.
The two's clothes were damaged, and many parts were charred, as if they had been burned by fire, and their auras were much weaker than before.
At this moment, Lan Yuanzi and Lan Yan were flying into the distance, but their speed was much slower than usual, and it seemed to be twice as slow.
The golden rainbow that Han Li had transformed into flourished again, and he chased after the two like lightning, the distance between the two sides rapidly shrinking.
"Not good, that surnamed Han brat is catching up!" Lan Yuanzi and Lan Yan were alarmed when they sensed the situation behind them.
"Big brother!" Lan Yan immediately turned to Lan Yuanzi.
Lan Yuanzi also did not hesitate, and the two of them clasped their hands together as they simultaneously chanted something.
A burst of the power of laws flew out from each of their bodies, and they fused together.
The two of them transformed into streaks of light that intertwined, forming the shape of a giant blue bird several thousand feet in size. It flapped its wings rapidly, and its speed abruptly increased by more than half.
Although Lan Yuanzi and Lan Yan had unleashed a secret technique to increase their speed, they were still far inferior to Han Li.
The distance between the two sides rapidly shrank, and they were soon only a dozen or so kilometers apart.
"This guy is too fast!" Lan Yan looked at the rapidly approaching Han Li, and she turned to Lan Yuanzi with a slightly panicked expression.
"I'll hold him off, you go first!"
Lan Yuanzi's eyes flashed, and he suddenly gritted his teeth. He raised a hand and gave Lan Yan a heavy shove, sending her flying into the distance, while he himself turned around and pounced toward Han Li.
"Big brother!" Lan Yan cried out in alarm. Light flashed from her body, and she immediately steadied herself, turning around to fly back.
"Idiot, do you want all our years of hard work to go to waste?
Hurry up and go!
Don't worry about me, I have a way to protect myself! "Lan Yuanzi angrily transmitted his voice.
As he spoke, he raised his hands, and a small white banner with a blue wyrm embroidered on it appeared in one hand, while a blue alms bowl appeared in his other hand. The inside of the alms bowl flickered with blue light like flames.
He abruptly waved his hands, and the two items immediately shot out.
Blue light flashed from the surface of the small white banner, and it transformed into a blue and white wyrm that was several thousand feet long. It spat out a blue breath that blotted out the sky toward Han Li.
The breath was mixed with pieces of white ice crystals, and they collided intensely with each other, emitting dense rumbling sounds. Even space itself was trembling. Clearly, its destructive power was shocking, and anything that entered it would probably be instantly torn into pieces.
The alms bowl spun, and a blue ice flame leaped out from it, turning into a large blue curtain of fire that swept toward Han Li, freezing the void in its wake.
The breath and the ice flame covered an extremely wide area, almost blocking half of the sky in front of them.
The originally hot and dry environment was instantly plunged into an extremely frigid ice field, and the surrounding temperature plummeted.
Lan Yan stood there in a daze, and tears welled up in her eyes. Her lips trembled, but in the end, she still flew forward to escape.
Seeing the breath and ice flame rushing toward him, Han Li's flying figure stopped, and he waved his hand.
An emerald light flew out from his sleeve, quickly expanding, and then splitting into two, forming two large emerald hands that stabbed into the dragon breath and the blue ice flame at lightning speed.
The dragon breath and the blue ice flame flew to a hundred feet in front of Han Li before suddenly stopping, and then dissipating like bubbles.
A thousand feet in front of Han Li, the small white flag and the blue alms bowl were grabbed by the large emerald hands, and no matter how hard they struggled, they were unable to break free.
However, Lan Yuanzi's figure had already disappeared.
Han Li frowned, and he made a hand seal.
The emerald light suddenly brightened, wrapping around the two immortal treasures as it flew back, disappearing into his sleeve in a flash. Then, golden light flashed from his body, and he chased after Lan Yan, who had yet to disappear into the distance.
At this moment, the void in front of him suddenly began to tremble, and a thunderous rumble sounded.
A series of blue cracks suddenly appeared in the void, densely covering the entire area. Then, countless rays of blue light surged out from the cracks, engulfing Han Li.
Han Li felt as if he were in the middle of a raging wave when he was struck by this blue light.
His flying figure came to an abrupt halt, and he shot backwards. He couldn't help but frown, and his body bloomed with dazzling golden light, like a nail that had been nailed to the ground.
But before Han Li could come up with any other countermeasures, the blue light in the vicinity quickly converged toward him, forming a blue light ball hundreds of feet in size in the blink of an eye.
The blue light inside the light ball was tumbling, rippling with the fluctuations of laws, and pressed toward Han Li from all directions.
The power of the nearby space was also wrapped in the blue light, and even with the strength of Han Li's body, it was difficult for him to move for a while.
However, Han Li's body was so powerful that he adapted to the surrounding pressure in a few breaths, and regained the ability to move. After a purple light flashed in his eyes, he immediately made a hand seal.
A chain of crystal light flashed between his eyebrows, and this crystal light was half-real and half-illusory, unaffected by the surrounding pressure, and quickly submerged into the void in front of him.
"Crash!"
A figure, bound by the crystal light chain, was dragged out of the void. It was Lan Yuanzi.
At this moment, the surface of his body was flashing abnormally dazzling blue light, as if it was burning, and there were abnormally powerful fluctuations of laws in it.
(Fellow Daoists, I'm sorry!
Wangyu has some things to deal with recently, and can only update once in the next two days.)
