Compared with Hu San, whose eyes were closed, Shi Chuankong's eyes were wide open, looking at Han Li on the other side of the Evil Cleansing Pool.
At this moment, Han Li's skin was blood-red, and his eyes were even blood-red. In addition to the black Evil Qi that was constantly overflowing from his body, there was also misty white steam mixed with it. He looked as if he was about to be steamed.
As the black and white mist intertwined and evaporated, streaks of blue lightning crisscrossed and lashed at his body like giant whips of lightning, producing a series of terrifying thunderclaps.
Although the three of them almost stepped into the Evil Cleansing Pool at the same time, it was obvious that Han Li, because the Evil Qi in his body was the thickest, stimulated the violent current in the Thunder Pool more, so he was affected the most violently, and the scene of lightning surrounding him was naturally the most terrifying.
Compared with the vast momentum outside his body, the scene inside Han Li's body was equally shocking.
At this moment, every single aperture in his entire body was like a Beacon Pass that was suffering the continuous attacks of the azure lightning within the pool, causing him to feel waves of intense pain. Within his sea of consciousness, there were even waves of violent gales and enormous waves that arose while lightning intersected within it, causing violent rumbling to resound out without end, directly shaking his soul to the point it shook him to the point he felt uneasy and anxious.
If it weren't for his extraordinary willpower, perhaps his Divine Soul would have collapsed before his body could bear it.
Ancestor Liu Qi's long and narrow eyes narrowed, looking at Han Li's appearance at this time, and a look of admiration flashed in his eyes.
But right at this moment, Han Li suddenly couldn't help but violently cough, and his body began to violently tremble. The baleful Qi that was slowly seeping out of his acupoints suddenly became as thick as ink. Immediately afterward, it flowed out at a speed several times faster than before, quickly spreading in all directions.
In the face of this sudden burst of dense baleful Qi, the surrounding azure lightning instantly became even more violent, and an even denser net of lightning swept toward Han Li, quickly dispelling the baleful Qi that had spread around Han Li.
Even though the baleful Qi had dissipated, the aura emanating from Han Li's body had become even more murky. His greyish-white eyes were rapidly becoming bloodshot, and crimson light was converging toward the center of his eyeballs, quickly taking over his entire pupil.
"Master!" Weeping Soul saw this and hurriedly cried out.
"Tsk tsk, what bad luck, to actually break out at this time …" Ancestor Liu Qi frowned and said.
"Uh … uh …"
Han Li let out a suppressed growl from the depths of his throat, and his body shook violently, followed by bursts of cracking sounds from his bones.
On the surface of his body, golden light flickered incessantly, and a layer of fine golden scales kept appearing and disappearing, and this kept repeating.
"The Evil Qi hidden in this kid's body is gradually gaining the upper hand, controlling him to react and resist the impact of the Evil Qi. If he can't keep his mind, once he is controlled by the Evil Qi and falls into a berserk state, it will be troublesome.
With his current state, there's no way he'll be able to recover, "Ancestor Liu Qi raised his huge head and said solemnly.
Hearing this, the Weeping Soul's expression became even more unsightly. After a moment of hesitation, she raised her hand and touched the space between her eyebrows. The flesh there split to the left and right, revealing a dark red demonic eye.
"Hmph!
I advise you not to do anything unnecessary. The Qi Cleansing Lightning Pool is somewhat similar to Heavenly Tribulation, so it's best for others not to interfere.
Otherwise, if you attract the violent attack of the Qi Cleansing Lightning Pool, not only will you die, but your master will also fail the Qi Cleansing Lightning Pool. Even if he's lucky enough to survive, he'll lose his original mind and completely become a Grey Immortal, "Ancestor Liu Qi snorted and said.
The Weeping Soul's expression changed again and again, but in the end, she put down her hand that was forming a hand seal and bowed to the nine-tailed fox. "Please … please help Master, Senior …"
"Didn't I say that it's best for others not to interfere?
Unless you want him to fail in his Qi Cleansing Lightning Pool? "Ancestor Liu Qi glanced at the Weeping Soul and said coldly.
"But …" The Weeping Soul said hesitantly.
"I can forcibly move him out of the Lightning Pool right away, but that's definitely not what he wants.
But this was absolutely not what he wanted in his heart. As the saying goes, in the path of cultivation, fortuitous encounters always coexisted with risk. Only by facing it head-on and carrying a heart of cutting off all means of retreat, would he be able to become a one in a million person.
Even though I've only met your master once, I can see that his will is extremely firm and extraordinary, "Ancestor Liu Qi said in a slow voice.
The Weeping Soul bit down on its lips and sat back down, but its eyes were still fixed on the figure in the Lightning Pool.
"I hope this brat can succeed. I've waited for so many years for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If I miss it, hehe, I'm afraid there's no hope for me in this lifetime," Ancestor Liu Qi murmured to himself in a voice that only he could hear.
Right at this moment, a dull rumble sounded, and rubble rolled down from the surrounding walls, kicking up plumes of smoke and dust.
The Qi Cleansing Lightning Pool was relatively isolated from the outside world, so they couldn't hear much activity from the outside world. But now, a series of rumbling sounds could be heard.
"Hmm? Could it be that the Nine Nether Tribe has sent reinforcements?
Or could it be that the 'old neighbor' that I've never met has finally broken free? Why is the commotion getting louder and louder?
If these brats don't hurry up, it'll be troublesome. I'll have to lend them a hand … "Ancestor Liu Qi sighed after a moment of silence.
As soon as he finished speaking, he opened his mouth and shot out a ray of black light that instantly struck the green bead.
The bead shook violently, and the light that rippled out from its surface suddenly increased by several times. Immediately, it attracted the violent bombardment of even more azure lightning. More lightning was diverted from the Lightning Pool, and the pressure on the three people in the pool was greatly reduced.
Hu San had the least amount of baleful aura among the three. At this moment, the pain in his body was greatly reduced, and his aura was gradually stabilized. It was only a matter of time before the baleful aura in his body was expelled.
Although Shi Chuankong could clearly feel that the pressure on his body had decreased, he didn't dare to relax. Although the baleful aura in his body didn't erupt as violently as Han Li's, it was still very dangerous.
Although Ancestor Liu Qi had diverted more lightning away, he only helped Han Li to alleviate a small part of his external pain. His situation was still not optimistic.
"Roar …"
Han Li let out a furious roar. Streaks of red gold, azure silver, and other colors kept flashing around his body. Huge hazy phantoms began to appear on the surface of his body. Giant Mountain Ape, Silver-winged Kun Peng, Five-colored Phoenix, Five-colored Peacock … All of them flashed vividly.
"There are so many mixed True Spirit Bloodlines in his body, but he's still able to survive unscathed. This human kid is really interesting … But having such mixed bloodlines might not be a good thing," Old Ancestor Liu Qi muttered to himself with a frown as he looked at the True Spirit Phantoms that kept flashing.
At this moment, Han Li couldn't hear him at all. In his Sea of Consciousness, it was as if the sky and earth had turned upside down. Monstrous waves were constantly crashing against the towering white snow-capped mountain that was manifested by the Imperial Peak God-suppressing Talisman.
The snow-capped mountain was shaking violently, and circles of soft white light were constantly emitting from it, trying to calm Han Li's turbulent Sea of Consciousness.
However, the moment those white lights hit the huge waves in the Sea of Consciousness, they all collapsed and didn't have much effect. At the same time, the top of the Sea of Consciousness was covered with dark clouds, and the billowing black air pressure made it look like the Evil Qi was invading the Sea of Consciousness.
Outside the Sea of Consciousness, Han Li's body was covered with streaks of light. Various True Spirit phantoms appeared at a faster frequency. His muscles began to swell involuntarily. Golden scales appeared on his arms, and he wanted to turn into a Giant Mountain Ape. A Black Tortoise Armor appeared on his chest, and a five-colored light flashed behind him, almost growing a peacock's long tail …
Ancestor Liu Qi's expression finally changed when he saw this.
Judging from his experience as a Tao Ancestor, Han Li was now an arrow at the end of its flight. Whether it was his physical body or Divine Soul, they were almost on the verge of collapse.
He was worried that if this continued, this guy who had the Heavenly Fox Blood Transformation Saber would not only lose his mind, but also die from his body exploding. It was even possible that both situations would happen at the same time.
In this case, the opportunity to use his hand to get rid of the imprisonment would be completely ruined.
Just when the old fox hesitated whether he should endure the punishment of four Thunder Pools at the same time and pull Han Li out by force, and think of a way to let him continue to help him get out of the imprisonment, a strange fluctuation suddenly appeared on Han Li's body.
In his Sea of Consciousness, a golden Nascent Soul was sitting cross-legged with its eyes closed. It was like a human cultivating with a strange gesture.
The Nascent Soul didn't open its mouth, but there was a light but clear chanting sound echoing in his Sea of Consciousness. The sound was extremely penetrating. Although there were violent winds and waves, it still couldn't cover it.
The content of the sound was none other than the cultivation incantation of the fifth level of Cultivating Spirit Art.
One word at a time, one word at a time. At first, it was extremely slow, as if there was not much power behind it. However, as the intonation became faster and faster, the voice became more and more urgent. It was as if the voice was filled with magic, and it began to cause waves of sound waves.
Even Han Li himself didn't know why, but in this perilous situation, the bottleneck that he had been stuck in while cultivating the fifth layer of the Spirit Refinement Technique had been broken, and bursts of powerful spiritual sense began to emerge from all parts of his sea of consciousness to repress the turbulence within his sea of consciousness.
The Evil Qi that invaded his Sea of Consciousness was also forced back by this new force, and it didn't continue to corrode his Sea of Consciousness.
Gradually, the blood in Han Li's eyes began to fade, and the storm in his Sea of Consciousness gradually calmed down. His mind also gradually became clear.
After an unknown period of time, he let out a long breath of impure air. The Celestial Spiritual Power in his body circulated slightly, and the strange appearance of the True Spirit Bloodline was completely restrained. He couldn't help but feel exhausted.
However, this outbreak of Evil Decay was finally suppressed by him for the time being.
Old Ancestor Liu Qi, who was still fighting with himself, was slightly startled when he saw this. Then, his expression changed, and he was somewhat moved and shocked.
