Facing the blood-red blades all over the sky, Han Li did not retreat at all. Instead, his body shone with a green light, and he rushed forward, directly crashing into the blades.
However, the scene that everyone had imagined did not happen. Han Li directly smashed all the blades into pieces with his physical body, and then stepped on the silver-horned giant rhinoceros below.
The latter was shocked at first, a little surprised by the strength of this human's physique. But when it sensed that his aura was not very strong, it was not afraid at all, and raised its axe to meet him.
Han Li stepped on the blade of the giant axe. The power of the stars in his body suddenly burst out, and there was a loud sound under his feet.
"Ka!" A crisp sound was heard!
On the huge axe, there were countless cracks like a spider web, and it fell to the ground with a clatter.
The silver-horned giant rhinoceros, holding the axe, only felt a shock in its arms, and a feeling of numbness hit its whole body in an instant. Its legs bent, and it directly knelt down under the pressure of this huge force.
Han Li took advantage of the momentum to get up. His figure flashed in an instant, and he dodged the sneak attack of the cloud-patterned tiger. He passed by it, and grabbed the back of its neck. Just with a gentle squeeze, a force penetrated into the rhinoceros and made it lose the ability to resist.
He carried the limp cloud-patterned tiger in his hand, and his figure fell again. He stepped on the shoulder of the silver-horned giant rhinoceros, who was just about to stand up, and directly forced it to kneel down again.
All of this seemed to take a long time, but in fact, it happened in the time of Han Li's rise and fall. Most of the people of the two tribes did not even have time to see what happened. They only saw that their leaders had been subdued by Han Li.
The people of the two tribes, who had rushed to the mountain ridge before, rushed back one after another, and surrounded Han Li in the center, clamoring for him to release their tribe's leaders.
Han Li did not pay attention to these people, but just lifted the cloud-patterned tiger in one hand, raised it in front of him, and asked,
"Which tribe are you from?
Why are you fighting here? "
The weak cloud-patterned tiger just raised its eyelids to look at Han Li, and its eyes were full of hatred and anger, but it did not answer.
"I think you should know what the Soul Searching Technique is, right?
Don't force me to use this technique. It won't feel good. "Han Li's expression turned cold as he spoke.
Hearing that, the cloud-patterned tiger trembled slightly, but it did not speak immediately.
"You won't shed a tear until you see the coffin …"
Han Li sneered. He lifted a finger and poked it in the forehead. A crystal light flashed on his fingertip, and a crystal thread stretched out like a snake. It wriggled and extended towards the cloud-patterned tiger-panther's forehead.
"We are the Cloud Marked Tiger Tribe and they are the Silver Horned Rhinoceros Tribe. The reason why we are fighting here is because of the feud between the two tribes."
Unexpectedly, the Cloud-Patterned Tiger-Panther did not speak. Instead, it was the Silver-Horned Giant Rhinoceros that spoke.
When Han Li heard this, his expression changed slightly. However, he thought to himself, There seems to be more to this matter than meets the eye.
"You actually took the initiative to speak for your enemy. It seems that you don't want me to search his soul. This can only mean one thing. That is, you are deliberately hiding something from me …" Han Li looked at the Silver-Horned Giant Rhinoceros and sneered.
Seeing this, the latter was frightened and annoyed. It could only curse in its heart.
The Human Tribe is really insidious and cunning!
After saying that, Han Li did not hesitate at all. He directly poked the cloud-patterned tiger-panther's forehead with his fingertip.
A crystal light shone from his fingertip, and a crystal thread instantly shot into the latter's head.
"Roar …"
The Silver-Horned Giant Rhinoceros roared. The people of the two tribes who were fighting just now, at this moment, did not care about the safety of the two leaders and rushed towards Han Li like a tide.
At Han Li's behest, a vast expanse of azure light shot forth from his body. The 36 Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords abruptly lit up with golden light, transforming into 36 golden pillars of lightning that revolved around him in a radius of several thousand feet.
Lightning flashed on the surface of the golden lightning pillar. Then, huge golden lightning balls gushed out from the pillar, and bounced back and forth between the thirty-six Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords. The sound of surging electric currents lingered in everyone's ears.
These barbarian mutants were originally afraid of the Heavenly Thunder and Earthly Fire. Blocked by Han Li's golden lightning wall, they hesitated for a moment and did not dare to move forward.
Han Li took advantage of this time to quickly search the cloud-patterned tiger-panther's soul.
After a moment, his eyes flashed slightly, and he slowly retracted his finger. However, his expression became a little strange.
From the memory of the cloud-patterned tiger-panther, Han Li learned the real reason for the conflict between the two tribes.
The Silver-Horned Giant Rhinoceros did not lie. There was indeed a feud between the two tribes. Their ancestors had been fighting in this barbarian area for millions of years.
However, this was not the direct reason for the outbreak of the war.
It turned out that thirty years ago, the True Spirit Monarch, who had always been regarded as the common lord of the barbarian tribes, suddenly issued an edict to hold a Blood Sacrifice Assembly in the Barbarian Temple of the Eight Desolate Mountain. He wanted to gather all the tribes that still had the bloodline of the ancient eight kings.
The eight ancient kings were the eight True Spirit Monarchs who ruled the barbarian world in ancient times. However, no one knew what happened in the history of the barbarian world, but the eight True Spirit Monarchs had now withered, leaving only one True Spirit Monarch.
The bloodline descendants of the other True Spirit Monarchs also had different experiences. Now, they were scattered throughout the Barren World. Among them, those with purer bloodlines were still overlords of a region. Although those with mixed bloodlines were no longer kings, their descendants were widespread and their power could not be underestimated.
As for those who were even more miserable, their bloodline might even be severed, making it difficult to trace them.
The Blood Sacrifice Assembly was originally the grandest assembly in the barbarian world since ancient times. However, due to the different bloodlines of the eight kings, it had not been held for tens of millions of years.
Once the news of the True Spirit Monarch's reconvening of the assembly spread, it was like a stone thrown into water. It immediately stirred up waves throughout the barbarian world. As the tribes of the barbarian world, it was an honor to be able to participate in the assembly.
The Silver Horned Rhinoceros and the Cloud Striped Tiger clans were no exception.
However, these two clans had nothing to do with the bloodline of the eight kings of the barbarian world. Not to mention the most powerful Northern Desolate Tribe, they could not even occupy a place among the top Hundred Tribes of the barbarian world. They were basically small tribes and naturally did not have the right to participate in the Blood Sacrifice Assembly.
Of course, these two remote tribes originally did not have the extravagant hope of being able to participate in the assembly. After all, the tribes that still had the bloodline of the eight kings were basically one of the Northern Desolate Tribes.
However, because of an accident, the Silver Horned Rhinoceros Tribe found a cub outside their tribe's territory. Its body actually contained the bloodline of one of the eight kings of the barbarian world.
The cub seemed to have suffered heavy injuries and was still in a deep sleep. It was protected by the Silver Horned Rhinoceros Tribe.
However, just as the Silver Horned Rhinoceros Tribe was preparing to secretly escort the cub to the Eight Desolate Mountain, the news was somehow leaked to their enemy, the Cloud Striped Tiger Tribe.
The latter was naturally unwilling to let the Silver Horned Rhinoceros Tribe make such a great contribution. After all, if the Silver Horned Rhinoceros Tribe gained power because of this, the Cloud Striped Tiger Tribe would face the disaster of extinction in the future. Thus, they took advantage of the situation to attack the Silver Horned Rhinoceros Tribe, determined to obtain the cub.
Han Li's hand loosened, and the Cloud Striped Tiger in his hand softened. It fell to the ground and fainted.
Han Li lowered his head and looked at the Silver Horned Rhinoceros Tribe that was firmly pressed under his body. He asked, "Where is the cub that you saved now?"
The Silver Horned Rhinoceros Tribe did not speak, but its eyes suddenly lit up with a strange light.
Seeing this, Han Li hurriedly slapped down and pressed it on the Silver Horned Rhinoceros Tribe's head. He scolded, "You're afraid that I'll search your soul, so you want to self-destruct your soul. You're really cruel to yourself."
"Don't think you can get any information out of me." The Silver Horned Rhinoceros Tribe's mouth was already bleeding as it roared at Han Li.
Han Li's palm lit up. He used the Alchemy Secret Technique to protect the Silver Horned Rhinoceros Tribe's sea of consciousness and soul, preventing it from self-destructing.
"You have tens of thousands of people. What's the use of self-destructing your soul? If I want to find the cub, no one can stop me. Do you understand?
I don't want to kill you because you're strong-willed and you're not afraid to die to protect the so-called True Spirit King's bloodline. You're seeking your own death. "Han Li frowned and said.
Hearing Han Li's words, the Silver Horned Rhinoceros Tribe calmed down a little, but then he said, "You humans are full of tricks.
"You humans are full of tricks. I can't trust you. Just kill me."
"Believe it or not, I have no evil intentions towards the cub. I just have some questions to ask you. As long as you answer them honestly, I'll let you go," Han Li said.
Seeing that Han Li didn't kill the Cloud Patterned Tiger Panther and stopped it from self-destructing, the Silver Horned Rhinoceros Tribe believed him a little.
"Is that true?" He asked skeptically.
"Where is your tribe in the Barbarian World?" Han Li asked.
Hearing Han Li's question, the Silver Horned Rhinoceros Tribe hesitated. Obviously, he didn't expect Han Li to ask about this.
"We belong to the Earth Dragon Tribe. It's in the southwest border of the tribe," the Silver Horned Rhinoceros Tribe answered after a short pause.
Han Li Tribe was just as stunned as the Silver Horned Rhinoceros Tribe. What kind of answer was that?
"How is the Barbarian World divided?
What's the relationship between it and the Great Immortal Domains? "He frowned and continued to ask.
"Our Barbarian World is boundless, and the division of territories has always been based on the territories of the major tribes. For example, the Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe's territory, the Great Ming Dynasty's Peacock Tribe's territory, and so on.
The Earth Dragon Tribe's territory is roughly between the Golden Origin Celestial Domain and the Spirit Terrace Celestial Domain, "the Silver Horned Rhinoceros Tribe answered.
"The Golden Origin Celestial Domain that's adjacent to the Spirit Terrace Celestial Domain. Isn't that the Great Golden Origin Celestial Domain where the Nine Yuan Temple is located …" Han Li Tribe muttered to himself.
He didn't expect that his physical body would accidentally wander to the vicinity of the Great Golden Origin Celestial Domain.
As soon as he thought of this, Han Li Tribe's thought arose in his mind again.
But he quickly killed this thought in his heart. The pursuit of the woman of ice and fire allowed him to understand the gap between his current strength and that of a true Middle-stage Golden Immortal Realm cultivator. Taking the risk to enter the Great Golden Origin Celestial Domain to investigate Jin Tong was no different than courting death.
