Han Li slowly withdrew his gaze and waved his hand to move the cross-legged Earthly Immortal body to the Yin Fish Diagram in the center of the formation, but the position was slightly different from the Yang Eye in the diagram.
He sat opposite the Earthly Immortal body on the Yang Fish Diagram, also slightly different from the Yin Eye in the diagram.
After sitting down, he began to calm his mind and adjust his breath. His whole body seemed to have performed the Thousand Apertures Silence Technique, and all his breath became silent, almost like that of the Earthly Immortal body.
A moment later, Golden Boy and Weeping Soul returned to guard the north and south ends of the island.
Han Li's eyes narrowed, and his hands formed a sign as he chanted.
Then, the outermost ring array on the altar was the first to light up with a golden light. There seemed to be the sound of Sanskrit, and it continued to spread in all directions, propping up a hemispherical light curtain to protect the entire altar.
On the light curtain, Buddhist mantras could be seen appearing, flashing with dazzling golden light.
Then, the circle-shaped talisman in the middle layer also lit up, and the seven or eight treasures placed on it suddenly lit up, from which rose a sky-high beam of light. According to their different attributes, some were entwined with raging flames, some were condensed with extremely cold air, and some were entwined with thick thunder and lightning, flashing with blue and purple electric sparks …
"Whoosh, whoosh …"
With the sound of breaking through the air, these beams of light shot out a chain of light that was either frozen, blazing, or entwined with lightning, and pierced into the major acupoints of the Earthly Immortal body, such as the Danzhong, Baihui, and Dantian.
These places were important passes for the Evil Corpse to transform the body of the Earthly Immortal. Just in case, Han Li had to control these places first.
When the second layer of the formation nailed the Earthly Immortal body with chains, the Yin and Yang Fish Talisman Array in the center lit up with a layer of black and white light.
Different from the first two layers, the third layer of the talisman array only lit up with a thin layer of light.
Han Li looked outside the altar and soon saw that the entire island was lit up with pillars of light that shot into the sky. The pillars of light condensed into a golden pagoda in the sky, suppressing the entire Heavenly Frost Island.
Seeing that Jintong and Weeping Soul had activated the Pagoda Demon Suppression Formation, Han Li took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes. His Divine Sense sank into his sea of consciousness.
Within his sea of consciousness, half of it was filled with dark clouds and the other half was filled with a torrential blood ocean.
Ever since the Evil Corpse released half of the Yuan Isolating Shackles, its strength had increased rapidly. Although Han Li had tried to suppress it several times, the effect was not good.
Generally speaking, after the Evil Corpse had formed a fetus, it must be cut off as soon as possible. But Han Li's method of splitting it up without cutting it off and allowing it to exist in his body for such a long time was a taboo in cutting off corpses.
Now, not only was the Evil Corpse's growth extremely fast, but its erosion of Han Li's sea of consciousness was also very serious. It had almost reached the point where it could contend with Han Li as an equal.
If this dragged on for a few more days, the Evil Corpse would probably break free of the Yuan Isolating Shackles and cause trouble for Han Li before Han Li could cut it off.
Han Li's Divine Sense strode forward in his sea of consciousness. Behind him, waves surged, and above his head, the Evil Corpse charged majestically toward the other half of the Blood Sea.
The Evil Corpse was still imprisoned in midair by the Yuan Isolating Shackles. It stood there with its hands by its side. Suddenly, it raised its head and looked at Han Li with a strange expression.
It grinned and said, "Hehe, I've waited for so long. You're finally here …"
"Why? You seem to have been waiting for me?" Han Li asked with a smile.
"You know that you can't trap me forever, so it's only a matter of time before you release me." The Evil Corpse twisted its neck and said indifferently.
"That's right. Since you've already separated, even if I trap you like this, I won't be able to stop you from becoming stronger and stronger.
That's why I'm going to cut you down today. "Han Li said.
"Don't be too confident. It's not certain who will be the one to cut down who." The Evil Corpse sneered without any fear.
"You do indeed have what it takes to compete with me in your current state, but this body of yours is going to be riddled with holes in the end, and neither of us will benefit from that," Han Li said with a nod.
"I was originally just a strand of your obsession with evil. Even if I get a damaged body, it's still a gain. No matter how you look at it, it's still a loss. So, it's better for you to worry about this kind of thing." The Evil Corpse didn't care and said coldly.
"You've thought it through. However, if I fail and destroy this body at the cost of my Divine Sense, what will you do?" Han Li was unmoved and said again.
Hearing this, the Evil Corpse's face finally stiffened. However, it immediately smiled again and said,
"I don't believe you'll do this.
You created me and I'm you. Even if you're controlled by me and I'm your master, it's better than having your body and soul destroyed!
Moreover, you're not decisive and ruthless enough. I'll do better than you! "
"You're still created by my evil thoughts and you don't understand me.
If you don't believe me, why don't we try? "Han Li put his hands behind his back and spread his other hand in front of him, making a 'please' gesture.
Seeing this, the Evil Corpse became silent.
Although he said that, he knew very well that Han Li was indeed capable of doing such a thing.
"Since you already believe me, why don't we talk about a way that satisfies both sides?" Han Li took a step forward and said with a smile.
"What way?" The Evil Corpse asked.
"I've already prepared a high-grade incarnation body for you in advance. As long as you're willing to enter it safely and refine it, won't you be able to be reborn?" Han Li walked around the Evil Corpse and said.
"Haha … even a three-year-old child wouldn't believe such deceptive words.
My Dao and yours are in conflict. How can you give me freedom? Wouldn't that be harmful for hundreds of generations and endless troubles? "The Evil Corpse suddenly laughed and said.
"Right now, I'm only here to behead the body. We'll talk about the future later.
I've told you the way. It's up to you whether you believe me or not. "Han Li walked back to his original position and said.
"You're really not lying to me?" The Evil Corpse hesitated.
"Whether I'm lying or not, you'll know when you see for yourself." Han Li said with a smile.
Then, he immediately released part of the Restriction Formation. The Evil Corpse could also sense the existence of the Earth Immortal's body.
"Your aura is compatible with mine. It seems that you've prepared for it.
If that's the case, I'll believe you for the time being. "After the Evil Corpse checked it, he actually agreed.
"Alright." Han Li chuckled as a thought appeared in his mind.
"Cang lang lang …"
Accompanied by the sound of the chains shaking, the remaining Primordial Isolation Magic Chains that were stabbed into the Evil Corpse's body flashed and retreated. They turned into a black mist and dissipated.
The Evil Corpse slowly stood up and stretched his muscles and bones. His entire body was like beans popping, and strange sounds continuously rang out.
"Hehe, I'm really touched by your good intentions. Unfortunately, no matter how good the Immortal's body is, it's not as compatible as the original body. Since one of us is going to be separated, why don't you do it?" He tilted his head and looked at Han Li with a grin.
"Sigh, my good intentions are treated as ill intent.
I knew you would do this. Since we can't negotiate, we have to use force. "Han Li slightly sighed and said.
As he finished speaking, he twisted his wrist and golden lightning flashed in his palm. It directly condensed into a long electric sword. The style was exactly the same as the Bamboo Cloudswarm Sword.
"As long as you can defeat me, I'm willing to let you kill me. What's the harm?" The Evil Corpse grinned and said.
As he spoke, a long sword also appeared in his palm. It also looked like the Bamboo Cloudswarm Sword. However, it was not surrounded by golden lightning. Instead, it was surrounded by dark red lightning.
Han Li's pupils shrank. He rushed forward and swept the long sword in his hand at the Evil Corpse.
The Evil Corpse did not want to be left behind. He raised the sword in his hand. Instead of blocking, he stabbed it at Han Li.
"Boom!"
Accompanied by a thunderous sound, the long sword in the Evil Corpse's hand suddenly flashed with a bloody light. A thick electric light suddenly burst out. In an instant, it extended a hundred times and stabbed at Han Li like a bloody spear.
Han Li was in mid-air. The sword that he had just swung was also a feint. He borrowed the force to cross the sky and arrived above the Evil Corpse's head.
With a twist of the long sword in his hand, golden electric light suddenly burst out from the sword. It was like a lightning vortex that enveloped the Evil Corpse.
The Evil Corpse saw that the situation was far from good. Just as it was about to make a move, the runes around its feet suddenly lit up. Thunder and lightning chains extended out of the Sea of Knowledge and fused with the thunder and lightning above, forming a golden cage that imprisoned the Evil Corpse.
Han Li's figure jumped and landed on the side. He looked at the Evil Corpse with a face full of ridicule.
"When was the lightning array laid on the ground?" The Evil Corpse's face was gloomy. He suppressed his anger and asked.
"Naturally, when I was talking to you.
Otherwise, why do you think I wasted so much time talking to you? "Han Li asked.
Hearing this, the Evil Corpse was silent for a long time. Suddenly, he looked up to the sky and laughed, "This is you, this is me, haha …"
Seeing that the Evil Corpse was crazy, Han Li frowned slightly. He suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
At this moment, as the Evil Corpse's laughter continued to spread, the entire sea of consciousness began to shake violently. The half of the blood-colored space seemed to be boiling.
The water in the sea of consciousness churned violently. Huge blood-colored bubbles appeared on the surface of the lake. Waves of mist rose from the bubbles and directly into the surging blood-colored clouds in the sky.
The blood-colored waves under the Evil Corpse's feet surged up and submerged him and the entire lightning cage. When the waves of blood fell, he had actually escaped.
Seeing this, Han Li's eyes narrowed and he immediately formed a spell with both hands.
"Boom!"
Following an earth-shattering thunderclap, bolts of golden lightning intertwined in the half of Han Li's sea of consciousness behind him before plunging down from the sky, sweeping up gale-force winds and massive waves on the surface of the ocean down below.
