Just as Han Li and the others were imprisoned, there was a fluctuation in the Void within the golden light. Then, a grey-robed old man appeared out of thin air.

"Ancestor!" Perfected Master Chun Jun and the other two were overjoyed when they saw the grey-robed old man.

Han Li and the others were shocked when they heard this.

In the entire Jiuyuan Temple, only the legendary Jiuyuan Tao Ancestor could be called "Ancestor" by Perfected Master Chun Jun.

The grey-robed old man ignored Perfected Master Chun Jun and looked at the black-robed girl. He raised his hand casually.

The black-robed girl's storage ring flashed and the five-colored bottle flew out towards the grey-robed old man.

However, just as the vial was halfway through its flight, the void above it split open with a "chi la" sound, and a large dark red hand shot out like lightning from within, grabbing the five-colored vial in one swift motion.

The grey-robed old man remained calm and waved his sleeves.

The golden light in the hall fluctuated, and a huge golden hand appeared out of thin air before grabbing toward the crimson hand.

The dark red hand moved its five fingers and formed a hand seal. Six mysterious runes appeared in the Void and blocked the golden hand for a moment.

"Eh, this is …" The grey-robed old man looked at the six runes and his pupils shrank.

The dark red hand grabbed the black-robed girl, Jiao San, Wu Yang, Lu Chuanfeng and Shi Kongmo with lightning speed.

A whirlpool appeared in the palm of the hand and swallowed the five of them.

The massive crimson hand then shot forth again, grabbing toward Han Li in the distance like a shooting star.

The grey-robed old man's face finally flashed with anger and he raised his hand to the Void.

A deep and ancient golden iron whip that exuded a boundless aura appeared in the air. It swayed in the air and lashed out at the dark red hand.

"Peng!" A muffled sound rang out!

The dark red hand was smashed into pieces by the whip and exploded, turning into a misty dark red light!

A soft groan came from the depths of the Void. It sounded as if it was in pain.

The shattered crimson light abruptly shrunk and instantly disappeared into the void without a trace.

This fight was as fast as lightning. Even someone as powerful as Perfected Master Chun Jun could not keep up.

By the time he reacted, everything was already over.

The grey-robed old man looked at the void where the dark red hand had appeared with a slightly gloomy expression. He did not say anything, but he did not give chase. He just stood there quietly.

A moment later, he withdrew his gaze and waved his hand.

The golden light in the hall fluctuated, and the blue ice wall shattered.

The golden light flashed and disappeared. Daoist Master Chun Jun, Chi Meng, and the others regained their freedom. Only Han Li was still unable to move.

"Greetings, Old Ancestor!"

Daoist Master Chun Jun and the other two Daoists made a gesture to retract the multicolored light restriction spell around the hall. Then, they immediately flew to the side of the grey-robed old man and kowtowed to him.

Although Chi Meng and Huo Yuan were arrogant before, they couldn't help but feel nervous when they saw the grey-robed old man and hurriedly bowed.

"Chun Jun, I've handed the Nine Yuan Temple to you to manage, and you've managed it to this extent?" The grey-robed old man said indifferently. His voice wasn't loud, but his tone revealed a sense of dignity and coldness.

"I deserve to die!

I failed to detect the invasion of the Samsara Temple in time. Please punish me, Patriarch! "Daoist Master Chun Jun trembled and knelt on the ground.

Yang Junzi and Daoist Master Lei Jun were also panic-stricken and begged for forgiveness.

"Forget it. There are outsiders here. Let's not talk about this for now. You guys can leave first and clean up the people of the Samsara Temple in the temple." The grey-robed old man glanced at Chi Meng and Huo Yuan and said with a snort.

"Yes!" Daoist Master Chun Jun and the other two Daoists replied and flew out.

"Chi Meng, Huo Yuan, my Nine Yuan Temple was incompetent and was invaded by a bunch of rascals. I'm sorry to have let you two see it as a joke." The grey-robed old man turned to look at Chi Meng and Huo Yuan and said with a smile.

"Senior, what are you talking about? The Samsara Temple is a great enemy that the entire Heavenly Court has to treat with caution.

Apart from the Celestial Realm of the Central Mainland, no other Celestial Realm can compete with them.

The fact that Fellow Daoist Chunjun was able to command the disciples of the Nine Origin Temple to defend themselves to this extent is already very commendable. "Chi Meng forced a smile onto his face as he deliberated over his words.

Huo Yuan stood aside and didn't dare to say a word.

"Haha, is that so?

If that's the case, not only is he not guilty, but he's also meritorious. "The grey-robed old man raised his head and laughed.

His laughter reverberated in the hall and became louder and louder. It sounded like muffled thunder and the void trembled.

Chi Meng and Huo Yuan's ears thundered and their bodies trembled. Then, the Spirit in their minds also trembled involuntarily.

Their expressions changed drastically and the red and purple lights on their bodies shone brightly. They hurriedly tried to protect themselves with all their might.

But it was useless. The trembling of their Spirit became more and more intense, like a flame in a gale that could be extinguished at any time.

At this moment, Han Li's body and Spirit were also trembling violently, but he couldn't use his cultivation to protect himself. It was extremely painful.

Fortunately, his physical strength was extremely tough and his Spirit was also extremely powerful. So, he was not in danger of dying for the time being.

At this moment, a red light shone from Chi Meng's body and instantly covered her and Huo Yuan's body.

The pain on Chi Meng and Huo Yuan's faces immediately disappeared. They panted heavily and their eyes were filled with fear.

"Fellow Daoist Jiuyuan, please calm down." The red light flashed and the figure of an old woman in red appeared.

This old man had a head of bright red hair that wasn't the slightest bit inferior to Chi Meng's, but his face was covered in wrinkles. He held a crane head cane in his hand, and he seemed to be doddering with age. However, his expression revealed a fierce and murderous aura.

Seeing the figure of the red-haired old woman, the grey-robed old man's eyes flickered slightly, and the echoing laughter in the hall slowly stopped.

Han Li heaved a sigh of relief, but he didn't relax at all. He looked at the red-haired old woman in shock.

"An illusory figure with such remarkable power. Could it be another Dao Ancestor?

It seems to be somewhat similar to Chi Meng. Could it be that this person is Dao Ancestor Chi Rong? "Han Li thought.

"Chi Rong, your granddaughter snuck into my territory and coveted the treasures of my Jiuyuan temple. I wonder who ordered her to do so?" The grey-robed old man said coldly.

"It really is Dao Ancestor Chi Rong …" Han Li's eyes flickered when he heard this.

"Fellow Daoist Jiuyuan, it's all a misunderstanding. Little Meng 'er was ordered by the Heavenly Court to capture Golden Immortal Devour and that Han Li. She accidentally came here.

As for snatching the bottle just now, she was just a child and was a little curious about the bottle.

Fellow Daoist Jiuyuan, you won't be so narrow-minded as to be angry with a junior, right? "The red-haired old woman said with a chuckle.

"You want to dismiss this matter by saying that you're curious? Does Chi Rong think that my Jiuyuan temple is a place where you can enter and leave at will?" The grey-robed old man said coldly.

When the red-haired old woman saw the grey-robed old man's expression, she frowned and said indifferently, "It is indeed Little Meng 'er and the others who were reckless in this matter. Fellow Daoist Jiuyuan, how do you want to deal with it?"

The grey-robed old man didn't say anything and glanced at Chi Meng and Huo Yuan.

Two golden rays shot out from his eyes and shot towards Chi Meng and Huo Yuan at an extremely fast speed.

"Stop!"

The red-haired old woman flew into a rage. She struck out with her walking stick and hit the golden ray that shot towards Chi Meng.

"Bang!" The golden light flashed and pierced through the walking stick. However, it also became much dimmer. Then, it quickly flashed and shot between Chi Meng's eyebrows.

"Ah …" Chi Meng held her head and screamed.

The other golden ray also shot between Huo Yuan's eyebrows. Huo Yuan didn't have any time to react.

His body trembled and emitted dazzling golden light. In the next moment, his head suddenly exploded, and his headless corpse fell limply to the ground.

The red-haired old woman waved her hand and shot out a red crystalline light that enveloped Chi Meng's body again. Chi Meng's screams immediately became much softer.

"You!" The red-haired old woman's expression relaxed. She suddenly looked at the grey-robed old man and her eyes shot out a viper-like light.

"For your sake, I will spare your granddaughter this once. However, if she dares to cause trouble in the Jiuyuan temple again, she won't be so easy to deal with.

I won't be sending you off! "The grey-robed old man sneered and waved his sleeve.

A golden light enveloped Chi Meng and Huo Yuan's corpses. After a flash, the two of them instantly disappeared. They seemed to have been teleported out.

As for Han Li, he was astonished by the series of events that unfolded before him.

The grey-robed old man looked kind, but he was actually so ruthless. He killed the master of Mount Hundred Creation just like that. Even Dao Ancestor Chi Rong, who had a high status in the Heavenly Court, didn't give him any face and taught his granddaughter a fierce lesson.

The things he did after sneaking into the Jiuyuan temple were ten times more serious than what Chi Meng and Huo Yuan had done. It would probably be difficult for him to leave this place alive today.

Han Li's thoughts moved like lightning. He thought about how to struggle and escape, but in the end, he couldn't move at all.

At this moment, the old ancestor of the Jiuyuan temple slowly walked in front of him with his hands clasped behind his back. He sized up Han Li with a gloomy gaze, and no emotions could be seen on his face.

Han Li and the old man looked at each other. They immediately felt as if they were looking at two deep and bottomless wells. There seemed to be moonlight reflected in them, but there wasn't the slightest ripple.

The old man wasn't in a hurry to speak. He just walked a circle around Han Li, as if he was carefully sizing him up.

Han Li felt his hair stand on end from being stared at by him. He felt as if all of his hidden secrets would be seen through by that pair of eyes.

Fortunately, the old man quickly moved his gaze away. With a wave of his hand, a thick layer of golden light emitted from his body. It turned into a golden light screen and enveloped the entire hall.

Han Li frowned. He was extremely shocked. He had seen many spirit domains in the past, but he had never seen a spirit domain that could give him such a strong pressure like the old man in front of him.

The surrounding ruins could no longer be seen. The entire void had turned into a huge golden ball. The golden light on it was so thick that it seemed to be made of liquid gold. It completely sealed off the void.

Han Li quickly discovered that his connection with the outside world had been completely severed. What surprised him even more was that his connection with Jin Tong, the Weeping Soul, and the others, as well as all the Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords, seemed to have been completely severed by this spirit domain that contained the majestic power of the laws of metal.

As for the unreliable Senior Bottle Spirit, he couldn't contact it at all. It was already impossible for him to use the small bottle to travel through space and escape from this place.
