Chapter 583

Around 15 minutes later.

Han Li landed on a platform protruding from the cliff and swept his sleeve, sweeping away the several tens of skeletons scattered on it. A vast expanse of dark green phosphorescence immediately danced in the air and slowly drifted down into the abyss.

This was already close to 10,000 feet away from the entrance.

After surveying his surroundings, he waved a hand through the air, and Daoist Xie, Jin Tong, and the White Jade Pixiu appeared on the cliff at the same time.

"Uncle, where are we?" Jin Tong hurriedly asked as he was struck by a sense of discomfort.

"What intense baleful Qi..." Daoist Xie's brows furrowed tightly.

"We're already situated in the abyss.

You should be able to handle the intensity of the baleful Qi here, but you'll be contaminated by it if you go any further down.

You can stay here for now; I have to go into seclusion, "Han Li said as he looked around.

"Uncle, you can be at ease and train below. Leave the top to us." Jin Tong nodded his head vigorously when he heard that.

Han Li stroked Jin Tong's head before turning to Daoist Xie, and said, "Fellow Daoist Xie, please help me set up a formation just in case."

"Alright," Daoist Xie replied with a nod.

"Master, this place feels quite eerie; will there be any issues?" Xiao Bai suddenly asked in a concerned manner.

"The baleful Qi in the abyss is so intense that even you can't handle it, so the same goes for the other primordial mutant beasts.

Furthermore, I've already scanned the area with my spiritual sense and haven't discovered the aura of any living beings, so there shouldn't be too much of a problem. "

When Xiao Bai heard this, she did not say anything else and nodded silently.

Han Li then looked at Jin Tong and said, "Jin Tong, although that person warned me, you must keep an eye on the Golden Devouring Immortal's movements after I enter seclusion. If it makes any strange movements, inform me immediately."

"Don't worry, Uncle." Jin Tong shuddered slightly upon hearing this, but he still nodded in response.

Han Li nodded in response before flipping a hand over to produce a formation plate. After giving some instructions to Daoist Xie, the two of them began to fly around the mountain face on either side of the abyss.

Looking at Han Li's back, Jin Tong suddenly said slowly, "In the past, when I followed that old witch Qu Ling, there were also times when I fought with my life on the line. However, most of the time, I was chasing and killing others. It was very rare for me to be chased and killed by someone. Now that I've returned to Uncle's side, I've always been in fear."

"Boss, could it be that you're regretting it?" Lil 'White probed.

Jintong slapped its head and smilingly said, "It's so exciting to follow Uncle all day long. How can I regret it?

Besides, what kind of person is Uncle? He must have a way! "

The corners of the White Jade Pixiu's mouth drew back, and there was actually a hint of a smile on its face.

…

Around 15 minutes later, Han Li bade farewell to Daoist Xie and Jin Tong before departing from the cliff and descending down into the abyss again.

As his body continued to fall, the wind beside him whistled, and the swirling airflow carried the phosphorescence in the abyss, scattering it in all directions, flashing endlessly in the deep and thick fog.

At a glance, it was as if there were stars in the night sky, but there was no starry sky to be seen. Instead, there was only an extremely eerie and terrifying aura.

The further down he went, the more perplexed Han Li became.

He had originally thought that the fiendish aura in the abyss should be evenly distributed and that it should be the same everywhere. However, the deeper he went, the thicker the fiendish aura around him became. However, the number of corpses of exotic beasts on both sides of the mountain walls had clearly decreased.

After descending for around 20 kilometers, there was no longer any light in this space, and the entire area was enshrouded in baleful aura.

Even though Han Li had cultivated a baleful orifice before, he was still struck by a sense of shortness of breath.

His brows furrowed slightly as he repressed the impact of the baleful aura and continued to descend toward the bottom of the abyss.

The deeper he descended, the denser the baleful aura around him became, and even his protective spiritual light was unable to completely keep it at bay.

After descending for close to 50 kilometers, the baleful aura around him suddenly began to churn violently, and gusts of eerie winds swept forth.

Bursts of violent and ferocious intent abruptly surged forth, and the surrounding temperature plummeted drastically. A layer of black ice crystals appeared on the Stone face of the mountain face, and some parts of the mountain face even cracked from the cold.

Han Li was caught off guard, and his body was instantly covered in a thick layer of Black Ice, following which the violent intent instantly invaded his mind.

He only felt that his vision had suddenly turned blood red, and when he looked up, he saw countless corpses of demonic beasts piled up like mountains, and blood flowed like a river.

At the same time, his ears were filled with anguished wails and cries of anguish.

Before he had a chance to do anything, countless crimson ghostly hands reached out from the mountains of corpses and rivers of blood, trying to drag him into this boundless hell.

In the face of such a situation, Han Li frowned slightly, but he did not lose consciousness.

He knew that this was because the baleful aura around him was too dense, causing his mind to be eroded and confused. He had already secretly activated the Spirit Refinement Art to protect his mind.

He closed his eyes and activated the cultivation method. A cool feeling flowed through his mind, and the surrounding illusions immediately began to fade away.

However, the eerie winds were still blowing from below, and the whistling sound was incessant. The illusions of mountains of corpses and seas of blood hovered in his mind with unusual tenacity, and could not be dispelled.

Han Li snorted and activated the Spirit Refinement Art several times, and a huge amount of divine sense surged in his mind.

The vibrations of the illusions in his mind finally subsided slowly.

He exhaled lightly, and a green light flashed on his body, shattering the black ice crystals on the surface of his body. However, he did not continue to descend. Instead, he bent down and looked down into the abyss with flickering eyes.

The strength of the baleful aura here was far beyond his expectations. If he did not have nearly four layers of the Spirit Refinement Art to protect his body, if it was any other intermediate Golden Immortal cultivator, he would have been bewitched by the illusions just now and gone mad and died.

At this time, he was in darkness. The abyss below was whistling with eerie winds, and the black fog was tumbling. It was so deep that he could not see the bottom.

In addition, the boundless baleful aura and eerie winds here were a great hindrance to divine sense. His divine sense could not explore far at all.

He originally wanted to rely on his physique to see if he could go deep into the abyss and use the richer baleful aura to help him break through. However, after arriving here, he found that he had almost reached his limit. If he forced himself to go down, it was difficult to guarantee that he would not be injured.

Not to mention, the kind of killing illusions just now would definitely appear again, and the power would probably be stronger. He was not sure that he could deal with it.

Just when he was a little hesitant, his eyebrows suddenly raised, and a trace of joy flashed in his eyes.

He found that after hurriedly activating the Spirit Refinement Art to overcome the illusions just now, the Spirit Refinement Art that was originally a little stagnant had improved a little. It was almost comparable to the previous few years of hard work.

Han Li had a thoughtful look on his face, and his heart moved.

Under the stimulation of the baleful aura, his divine sense was always on the verge of collapse, but in this way, it was actually helpful for the full operation of the Spirit Refinement Art.

He originally wanted to use this environment to condense baleful aura to break through his aperture, but now he found that this was also an excellent place for training the Spirit Refinement Art, which was a pleasant surprise.

After all, such a dense baleful aura was rare in the outside world. He became more and more curious about what was down there.

After a moment, Han Li's eyes narrowed, and his figure continued to dive down.

This time, he flew down for less than ten miles. The surrounding baleful aura was even more intense, and the whistling eerie winds were even more ear-piercing and loud, like the mournful cries of demonic beasts on the verge of death.

Han Li stopped, and with a thought, he relaxed the Spirit Refinement Art that had been running in his mind.

The boundless and violent aura around him immediately surged into his mind. The scene in front of him blurred, and the previous illusions of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood appeared again, and this time, it was more dangerous than before.

Han Li immediately operated the Spirit Refinement Art, and his powerful divine sense circulated, trying his best to dispel the illusions in his mind.

Time passed slowly, and after half a day, he opened his eyes and let out a sigh of relief.

As expected, the Spirit Refinement Art had improved a lot again.

Seeing this, Han Li was overjoyed. According to the current situation, the bottleneck of the Spirit Refinement Art that had previously trapped him might be able to break through in no time.

He rested on the spot for a while, and then continued to fly down.

The lower he flew, the stronger the baleful aura and eerie winds around him. Endless waves of baleful aura gushed out from below, as if the bottom of the abyss was connected to hell.

Just like before, every time Han Li descended a certain distance, he would stop temporarily, and use the eerie winds and baleful aura here to practice the Spirit Refinement Art.

Under the stimulation of the surrounding baleful aura, the practice of the Spirit Refinement Art was exceptionally smooth.

After a few months, Han Li's Spirit Refinement Art had reached the peak of the fourth level, and he was only one step away from the real great achievement.

His figure stopped on a protruding boulder on the cliff of the abyss, and then he looked down.

According to his mental calculation, he had fallen nearly a thousand miles during this period of time, but there was still no sign of the bottom of the abyss.

Then, Han Li turned his eyes and looked at the surrounding mountain walls. After a moment of hesitation, his figure flew down again.

He didn't fly far before he let out a soft cry of surprise.

At this point, the abyss unexpectedly became narrower, and masses of black eerie winds flew over, stirring up the baleful aura nearby, and forming a strange whirlpool of different sizes.

The baleful aura here suddenly became several times stronger, and the sound of the eerie winds suddenly became louder.

Waves of violent aura rushed into Han Li's mind like a tide. At this moment, he didn't stop practicing the Spirit Refinement Art in his mind, and his mind was still shaken by the baleful aura here.

His complexion changed slightly, and he was about to stop.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew in the abyss below, and an incomparably thick black wind pillar suddenly flew out, and wrapped around Han Li's body.
