"Well done!"
Old Ancestor Liu Qi was overjoyed. He roared at the sky and his body shone with greyish-white light.
A domineering aura emanated from his body, causing the entire hall to tremble.
"Hmph!"
Yin Cheng Quan's split soul swept a glance at Han Li and the others. His expression darkened as he slapped the air with both hands.
After a muffled sound, four greyish-white palms appeared above the greyish-white fox's shadow.
The four palms rippled with greyish-white light and fused into one, transforming into a giant palm that was several hundred meters wide. It fell down like a giant mountain.
"Haha, Yin Cheng Quan, I have already broken the second seal. Do you still want to suppress me?"
Old Ancestor Liu Qi laughed heartily. His huge body moved, causing the silver and gold chains on his body to clatter. He stood up.
The space between his eyebrows glowed brightly, and the greyish-white giant fox in midair suddenly grew in size. It stood up on its hind legs, and its two front claws glowed brightly. They suddenly grew several times larger, and suddenly pounded upwards.
An earth-shattering sound rang out!
The greyish-white palm exploded, and Yin Cheng Quan's body shook. He took a few steps back before he could stabilize himself.
The greyish-white fox was also smacked down from the sky. The greyish-white light on its body became unstable.
However, it swayed left and right and immediately stabilized itself. It pounced toward Yin Cheng Quan, who was still unstable.
… …
Falling Lake Conference Hall.
The various domain lords began to express their opinions again, and the hall returned to its previous liveliness.
Yin Cheng Quan sat with a smile on his face. From time to time, he would interact with the domain lords beside him. He had regained his previous confidence, which disappointed Huangfu Yu, who had been secretly observing him.
At that moment, Jiao San, who was behind Huangfu Yu, suddenly heard something.
"Palace Master Huangfu, our people have found out that something has happened in Soul Cleansing District. However, it isn't an accident in the artifact forging workshop that Yin Cheng Quan mentioned. Instead, someone has snuck into the depths of Asura City and caused quite a commotion. Now, Asura City's defensive forces are gathering there." Jiao San's voice resounded in Huangfu Yu's mind.
"Oh? Someone has snuck into Asura City at this time." Huangfu Yu raised his eyebrows.
"Palace Master, the situation has changed. Should we continue to investigate?" Jiao San asked telepathically.
"Let them continue to inquire, and at the same time, cause some commotion, but be careful not to be discovered by the people of Tartarus." Huangfu Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately replied via voice transmission.
"Palace Master Huangfu, you want to … I understand," Jiao San's eyes lit up and she immediately agreed.
Yin Chengquan was discussing something with a Territorial Lord next to him when he glanced at Huangfu Yu with a strange look in his eyes.
Right at this moment, he tightened his grip again. The purple horizontal lines on it flickered faintly before quickly dimming and turning grey.
The smile on Yin Cheng's face froze.
…
Inside the forbidden area.
Han Li's face was a little pale. He turned his hand and put away the Heavenly Fox Blood Transformation Knife. He took out a pill to recover immortal spiritual energy and swallowed it. Only then did his complexion look better.
Hu San and Shi Chuankong immediately took out some medicinal pills and swallowed them, recovering their consumed immortal spiritual energy.
The light around Daoist Xie's body was extremely dim, and his aura had plummeted.
He was using Immortal Essence Stones to activate the internal structure of his body, and activating the Heavenly Fox Blood Transformation Knife had drained all of his Immortal Essence Stones, making it difficult for him to move.
Han Li glanced at Daoist Xie before raising his hand to release a green light and put Daoist Xie into his flower space.
He had prepared enough Immortal Essence Stones in the flower space, and Daoist Xie could replenish his energy in there.
Hu San raised his head and saw that the grey-white giant fox was forcing Yin Chengquan back. He was overjoyed and cupped his fists toward Han Li and Shi Chuankong.
"Fellow Daoist Li, Brother Shi, after you two rest for a while, we'll break the remaining two chains in one go. Once the ancestor is completely freed, he'll protect you two, and you'll be able to enter the third lightning pool without any problems."
"I can't." Han Li shook his head.
"Why not?
The situation is dire. Leaving aside Yin Chengquan's split soul, the enemies could arrive at any time.
Furthermore, without the ancestor's protection, you won't be able to enter the third lightning pool, right? "Hu San frowned as if he was displeased.
"You've misunderstood, Fellow Daoist Hu San.
This Lightning Sutra Chain is no ordinary restriction, and Senior Liu Qi has already mentioned the issue of the chain's backlash.
The two of you haven't come into direct contact with the Lightning Sutra Chain, so you won't be able to sense it. Every time the chain is broken, the restriction power imbued within it will counterattack, and both Senior Liu Qi and I will be affected.
This lightning restriction power is extremely fearsome, and it's not that I'm afraid of death. If I hadn't been baptized in the corresponding lightning pool and imbued my body with a trace of the lightning pool's essence aura, I wouldn't have been able to withstand it.
Senior Liu Qi must've known about this in advance, which is why he asked us to baptize ourselves before severing the chain. "Han Li raised a hand, and a layer of purple light appeared over his body again.
"I see.
It's just that the ancestor won't be able to protect you now, so how will you be able to withstand the two remaining lightning pools? "Hu San asked in a hesitant manner.
"Fellow Daoist Hu San has already said that the situation is dire, and our lives could be in danger at any moment. If we don't fight to the death now, we won't even have a chance to do so.
My own fate can only be controlled by my own hands. "
As Han Li spoke, his figure flashed, and he flew to the side of the silver lightning pool, and looked into it.
Within the lightning pool, there were silver arcs of lightning dancing like spirit snakes. These arcs of lightning were much finer than the azure and purple lightning pools, and the silver arcs of lightning interweaved with each other, emitting a sound like that of a myriad of birds, causing one's heart to palpitate.
After taking a deep breath, he clenched his teeth and leaped into the silver lightning pool.
Silver arcs of lightning immediately swarmed over, and instantly wrapped around his body.
When the silver arcs of lightning struck his body, they easily tore open long and deep wounds. Every silver arc of lightning was like a flying sword of lightning.
Han Li couldn't help but let out a muffled groan, and a trace of shock flashed through his eyes.
These silver arcs of lightning were several times stronger than the purple lightning, and his incomparably tough body was practically non-existent in front of the silver arcs of lightning.
In the blink of an eye, his body had become tattered, and one could even see the white bones underneath.
At the same time, the silver arcs of lightning invaded his body, and raged everywhere. Wherever they passed, his meridians and flesh were torn apart, and blood spurted out from every part of his body. It was as if he was being cut by thousands of knives.
At the same time, different colored lights flashed on his body, and the phantoms of the True Spirits appeared again. They were much clearer than before, and they continuously revolved around his body.
The muscles on Han Li's body involuntarily swelled up, and all kinds of True Spirit forms appeared. Several kinds of True Spirit bloodlines in his body surged madly, as if they wanted to break out of his body, and this caused his injuries to become even more severe.
Anxiety appeared in his eyes. If this continued, his body wouldn't be able to bear it.
However, if he wanted to use the power of the lightning pool to cleanse himself, he couldn't try to resist the power of the lightning.
Han Li gritted his teeth, and once again activated the Great Circulation Star Energy Art. He only protected his internal organs, and allowed the silver arcs of lightning to wander around his body.
Baleful decay was also activated at this moment. Traces of blood-red light appeared in his eyes, and the power of divine sense in his mind surged again.
But at this moment, the influence of baleful decay was nothing to him, the most important thing was that his body could endure it.
The silver arcs of lightning wreaked havoc in his body, and as if they had a mind of their own, the silver arcs of lightning drilled into his immortal apertures that had been invaded by the baleful aura.
Han Li's body shook, and a dense black aura appeared on the surface of his body again, and surged out like a raging tide.
The surging of the baleful aura this time was no small matter, it was much faster than the previous two lightning pools. The baleful aura in his body and immortal apertures was decreasing at a visible rate.
As the murderous aura gushed out, he felt relaxed from the inside out. It was as if he was gradually freed from a heavy burden that weighed tens of thousands of kilograms.
Han Li willed, and with a wave of his hand, a silver light flickered in his palm, and a silver pill appeared. The pill was covered in silver veined patterns that vaguely formed the pattern of a three-legged Golden Crow. It was the final Tai Yi pill.
He raised his head and swallowed the pill, and immediately closed his eyes.
Shi Chuang Kong looked at the strange phenomenon in the silver lightning pool, and frowned unconsciously.
"Brother Shi, don't tell me you want to take the risk?
Fellow Daoist Li is not forced to, but you can wait until Ancestor gets out of trouble, and then try again. "Hu San raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Be that as it may, the situation is changing rapidly now, whether or not I will have the chance is another matter.
I have already experienced so many dangers to get here, if I don't take this gamble, how can I be satisfied? "Shi Chuang Kong said with a faint smile.
"You …"
Hu San was about to persuade him again, but suddenly, a dark light flashed at the edge of the giant hall, and a light formation appeared out of nowhere. Next, the light formation shone with a grey light, and a figure appeared on top of it.
Sensing this person's aura, Hu San's expression changed, and he stopped what he was about to say.
"Yin Chi!" Shi Chuang Kong also turned around, and said with a bewildered expression.
The person who came was pale, and his expression was sinister. He was the Great Overarching Grey Immortal, Yin Chi, who had made them suffer in the Hundred Treasure District.
As soon as Yin Chi appeared, he first swept his gaze over Shi Chuang Kong and Hu San, and then his expression suddenly changed as he looked at the sky.
There, Yin Chengquan's split soul was colliding violently with the greyish-white giant fox, and then they separated, facing each other several hundred feet away.
On the giant cross in the center of the four lightning pools, Ancestor Liu Qi looked up at Yin Chi, who had rushed over, and then looked at Yin Chengquan's split soul in the sky, and sneered.
"Lord Domain Lord, you … I …" Yin Chi's eyes flashed with a trace of fear, and he said hesitantly.
"Elder Yin Chi, why are you here?
Don't you know what this place is? "Yin Chengquan's split soul's gaze sank, and he slowly said.
"Reporting to Domain Lord, You Luo betrayed our Nine Nether Tribe, and released these people from the Nether Prison without permission. He even brought them into the forbidden area to release Suan Ni.
I had no choice but to chase them into the holy land of the tribe. Please punish me, Domain Lord. "Yin Chi hurriedly bowed, and said with a trembling voice.
