At this moment, the two demons who were originally trapped in the saber array saw the situation outside. Although they didn't know what was going on, they knew that help had arrived. They immediately became spirited and began to counterattack.

A silver light flashed in the hands of the tall demon, and a silver-white pipa appeared. He plucked the strings with all ten fingers.

With a series of "chi chi" sounds, a dozen long black spatial cracks appeared in the void around him. Like a dozen black pythons, they swiftly slashed at the broken parts of the saber array.

With a "crack" sound, the saber array was torn apart again, leaving only a thin layer.

"This is …!" Han Li's eyes widened.

The black-robed woman immediately took action at this moment, waving her hands.

Two purple balls shot out from her sleeves and rapidly enlarged. In the blink of an eye, they turned into two purple puppets, entwined with purple lightning.

The aura emitted by these two puppets was no weaker than that of the black-robed woman. Moreover, the purple lightning contained an extremely explosive Law of Lightning. It was unknown what kind of lightning power it was.

The black-robed woman spread her hands, and ten black lines shot out from her slender fingertips, entering the bodies of the two puppets. The black lines revealed a strange Power of Law.

The surface of the two purple puppets suddenly shone with purple lightning, and their aura suddenly doubled. They turned into two huge purple lightning balls, and then suddenly exploded.

Two purple suns appeared and fiercely attacked the saber array, causing the nearby void to directly crack.

The saber array could no longer withstand, and a large hole was torn in it.

"Let's go!"

At this moment, the tall demon pulled the person beside him, turned into a silver light, and shot into the sky. In an instant, they flew out of the big hole in the saber array and shot into the air.

With a smile, Han Li floated up to meet them.

"Fellow Daoist, you are?"

The two demons flew out of the encirclement, relieved, but immediately became vigilant when they saw Han Li approaching.

In order to prevent the ghost race of the netherworld from recognizing his identity as a human cultivator, Han Li used the Samsara Temple's mask to transform into a figure in a long robe. He looked mysterious, like a ghost, and it was no wonder that the other party was vigilant.

At this moment, Jintong and Weeping Soul flew back, and the goat-headed ghosts also rushed at them with angry roars, as if they would not rest until they were dead.

"This is not the place to talk. Leave with me first." Han Li raised his hand and waved.

Five streaks of golden lightning shot out from his hands in the shape of dragons. Wherever they passed, the void trembled violently, as if it was about to be torn apart by the lightning.

Han Li was slightly surprised. His strength had improved greatly this time, and the might of the Du Tian God Thunder had also increased to such a level. It was really beyond his expectations.

Five thick bolts of lightning landed near the group and intertwined with each other to form a new lightning formation.

However, right at this moment, the black-robed woman spread open her palm, and five more black lines shot out from her fingertips, disappearing into the surrounding lightning formation.

The lightning array formation that was about to take shape suddenly stopped, as if it was being controlled.

Han Li's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise when he saw this.

"Where are you taking us?" The black-robed woman looked at Han Li and asked.

The tall demon beside him didn't stop his companion's actions.

This lightning formation appeared to be capable of teleportation, and even though these people had helped them escape, they couldn't just allow them to be taken away.

As for the ghosts that were flying toward them from down below, the tall demon paid them no heed. They had only been trapped due to a moment of carelessness, and now that they had escaped the encirclement, they could leave at any time.

Han Li's surprise only lasted for an instant before his expression returned to normal in the next instant. He moved his hand, and the golden lightning he had shot out abruptly became several times thicker.

The black lines that the black-robed woman had shot out shattered with a crack, and five streaks of lightning quickly intertwined to form a lightning formation.

The goat-headed ghosts pounced toward the group, and a series of black saber projections fell like rain, tearing through all things in their path.

Dazzling golden lightning abruptly blossomed, illuminating the space within a radius of over 50 kilometers. The figures within the formation swayed slightly before instantly disappearing without a trace, and the countless saber projections struck nothing but thin air.

The goat-headed ghosts were all enraged, and they roared with rage as they continued to swing their sabers toward the golden lightning formation as if they were venting their frustrations.

"Alright, all of you, shut up!" Accompanied by a majestic voice, a tall figure flew out from among the goat-headed ghosts.

This was an abnormally tall Shang Yang Ghost Clan member, and he was several times taller than ordinary Shang Yang ghosts. He had two scimitar-like horns on his head, and a long beard on his chin. He looked quite majestic, and it seemed that he was the leader.

The howling ghosts all stopped and looked at the man.

"Clan leader, the two outsiders have escaped. Should we pursue them?" Another tall Shang Yang Ghost Clan member stepped out from the crowd and asked unwillingly.

"Can you catch up with them?

Moreover, these outsiders are very strong, and we had to rely on the battle formation to trap them. Why should we send a few people to chase after them? Are we going to die? "The Shang Yang Clan leader sneered and said.

The Shang Yang Ghost Clan member was reprimanded, and his face was full of awkwardness. He nodded and didn't dare to say anything else.

"All of you, go back. At the same time, send the news of the foreign invasion to the Ma Wang Clan," the Shang Yang Clan leader said after a moment of silence.

The Shang Yang Ghost Clan member behind him responded, and then the ghosts in the valley turned into black shadows and flew away.

…

Millions of miles away, in the sky above a black forest, a ball of golden lightning appeared in the void. It quickly enlarged and turned into a Thunder Formation.

Light and shadow flickered in the center of the Thunder Formation, and the figures of Han Li and others appeared out of thin air.

However, the golden Thunder Formation did not dissipate. Instead, it shone brightly again and continued to teleport.

After teleporting several times, the group stopped in a dark red desert, and the Thunder Formation disappeared.

"Who are you people?" The two devils immediately retreated and shouted in a deep voice.

"It's me." Han Li looked at the two, and made a gesture to activate the Samsara Temple mask, revealing his original appearance.

"Friend Han, it's you!"

The tall demon was overjoyed. He pulled down the hood on his head, and revealed a face. It was none other than Shi Chuankong.

He was much taller than before, and his body had also become thicker. His body exuded a strong pressure, and it was obvious that he had made great achievements in the cultivation of his body.

"Sect Fellow Shi, I didn't expect that we would meet again in the Nether World after parting ways in the Devil World."

Han Li nodded slightly to Shi Chuankong, and then looked at the black-robed woman. A rare trace of tenderness flashed in his eyes, and he said softly,

"Violet Spirit, I didn't expect that we would meet again."

"Brother Han, why are you here?"

The black-robed woman looked at Han Li blankly, and slowly pulled down the hood, revealing a stunning face.

Who else could it be if not Violet Spirit?

But at this moment, perhaps because she had just experienced a fierce battle, her face was a little pale, and her chest rose and fell slightly. In the dim light of the Nether World, she looked even more beautiful.

This scene made Han Li's heart flutter for no reason. Many complicated feelings of the past surged into his heart, but in the end, he forcibly suppressed them.

Jintong and Weeping Soul also changed their appearances. Seeing that Han Li was no longer hiding, they also made a gesture to restore their original appearance.

Violet Spirit frowned slightly when she saw Jintong and Weeping Soul. She seemed to want to ask something, but she didn't say it.

"They are Jintong and Weeping Soul. They used to be spirit beasts, but now they have transformed into human forms." Han Li saw the change in Violet Spirit's expression and introduced them.

Violet Spirit heard this, and the knot in her heart immediately disappeared. She smiled at the two, and a trace of curiosity flashed in her eyes.

Han Li had told her about Jintong and Weeping Soul in the past. Back in the Mortal World, they had already met and experienced many things together, but at that time, Jintong and Weeping Soul had yet to gain intelligence.

She didn't expect that after so many years, the Giant Soul-Sucking Ape and Metal Devouring Spirit Bug had changed so much.

Jin Tong merely nodded at Violet Spirit without saying anything, but the Weeping Soul Beast spoke in a friendly tone.

Weeping Soul said in a friendly tone, "Fellow Violet Spirit, I heard from Master that we met in the Devil Realm, but I was seriously injured and unconscious in the branch space, so I couldn't come out to meet you.

"Don't worry about it. Also, thank you for helping me and Fellow Daoist Shi escape." Violet Spirit bowed to the two of them.

"There's no need to be so polite, Fellow Daoist Violet Spirit," Weeping Soul said with a smile.

Violet Spirit blushed slightly, and a sense of sweetness welled up in her heart as her impression of the Weeping Soul improved significantly.

"Tsk tsk, Friend Han, you sure are envious to have so many beauties around you." Shi Chuankong patted Han Li on the shoulder and transmitted his voice to him with a derisive smile.

"Don't spout nonsense, Jintong and Weeping Soul are only my companions.

By the way, why are you here? "Han Li slapped Shi Chuankong's hand away before changing the topic.

A hesitant look appeared on Shi Chuankong's face upon hearing this, and he didn't say anything.

"If it's a confidential matter, then just pretend that Han didn't ask," Han Li said as he raised a hand.

After seeing Shi Chuankong and Violet Spirit, he couldn't help but think about Daoist Xie and what was going on in the Devil Realm, but it wasn't a good time to ask about it under these circumstances.

Shi Chuankong heaved a sigh of relief as he said, "Thank you for your understanding, Friend Han."

Violet Spirit took a glance at Shi Chuankong, and her mouth opened slightly, but she didn't say anything in the end.

Shi Chuankong looked at Han Li's trio, and he wanted to ask them why they were here, but he didn't want to be honest with them, so he was too embarrassed to ask.

In order to avoid the awkward silence, he looked around.

"What is this place?"

"Judging from the terrain, this should be a place known as the Infernal Fire Desert. The climate here is relatively hot, and most ghostly beings are unwilling to approach it. There aren't any powerful beings living here, so it's relatively safe.

The two of you have just experienced an intense battle. Would you like to rest? "Han Li asked.

"I'm a little tired, so I want to rest for a while."

Violet Spirit cut in before Shi Chuankong had a chance to reply. She had been struggling to hold on for a while, and she was relieved to see Han Li and the others, but she was also feeling a little overwhelmed.

"Then let's rest for a while." Shi Chuankong nodded before waving a sleeve through the air.

Several hundred streaks of black light flew out from his sleeve before landing on the ground nearby. These were none other than some formation tools, and a black light barrier enshrouded an area of several thousand feet around them.

Violet Spirit and Shi Chuankong sat down with their legs crossed before pulling out Devil Origin Stones to replenish their devilish Qi.

Jintong also sat down on the spot before meditating.

Han Li and Weeping Soul didn't sit down. Instead, they stood to one side to stand guard for Violet Spirit and the others.
