On the other side of the valley, a series of strange beasts of different sizes were charging toward Shi Chuankong and Daoist Xie. Some of them had scales all over their bodies, some had bony horns on their heads, and some were enshrouded in black mist. All of them were charging toward Shi Chuankong and Daoist Xie in a frenzy.

Any weaker beasts that tried to escape along the way were trampled to death by these beasts, and the stench of blood and gore wafted through the air incessantly.

"Thankfully, their auras aren't too powerful. Looks like we haven't provoked any of those troublesome beasts yet, so we should be able to hold them off for a while. I'm just worried that we'll have to waste too much time …" Shi Chuankong murmured to himself as he looked at the oncoming tide of beasts.

As soon as his voice trailed off, he descended while waving his hands through the air in rapid succession.

Rays of light shot out, each containing a formation plate and a formation flag. They flew towards the path where the ferocious beasts were rushing over and continuously set them up.

"Rise!"

Shi Chuankong made a hand seal as he let loose a thunderous roar.

As soon as his voice fell, a silver-white light suddenly lit up and rose from the ground, directly forming a huge space barrier that was hundreds of feet wide. It connected from one end of the valley to the other, building a silver wall of light.

Boom!

With a loud bang, the giant black ape was the first to arrive and violently collided with the silver wall of light.

The entire wall of light shook violently, and the dazzling silver light collapsed and scattered. However, the wall did not move at all, and there was not the slightest trace of it breaking.

The giant black ape's aura was only at the early-stage True Immortal Stage, and a hint of fury flashed through its eyes as it swung its massive arms violently toward the silver wall of light.

Immediately thereafter, the giant azure python and the azure and purple spider also rushed over and began to crash into the wall, but no matter how much they struggled, the silver wall of light remained completely unscathed.

Shi Chuankong heaved a faint sigh of relief as he took a glance at the silver wall of light, then sat down with his legs crossed.

"I finally don't have to rely on Immortal Essence Stones to survive anymore," he said as he made a hand seal and closed his eyes to meditate.

Meanwhile, Daoist Xie was slightly relieved to see Shi Chuankong's actions, and he stowed his Thunderslash Saber away before plucking a gourd from his waist.

He tipped the gourd over before patting the underside of the gourd.

A whirlpool of light suddenly appeared at the mouth of the gourd. Yellow light shined brightly, and dark-yellow beans fell from the gourd like rain, falling to the ground one after another.

There was a series of explosions that sounded like rain hitting on banana leaves. All the beans shone brightly, and the moment they landed on the ground, lightning flashed, and they turned into Dao Soldiers that were ten feet tall.

Every single one of them wore simple and unadorned armor that was inscribed with numerous lightning talisman markings. A few hundred of them stood in an orderly square formation, and there were a total of over ten square formations. They each held a weapon in their hands, and they charged out of the gorge in an orderly manner just like the strongest military formation of the mortal Dynasties.

Although the Dao Soldiers were silent, the sound of their orderly footsteps was as shocking as thunder. After they crashed into the ferocious beast flood, they immediately split the beasts into dozens of groups and surrounded them.

The lightning armored Dao soldiers were slightly weaker than these mutant beasts in terms of individual combat prowess, but their teamwork allowed them to quickly gain the upper hand, and the mutant beasts that had charged into the valley were all howling with anguish.

Daoist Xie hovered in the air and looked out at the forest in the distance with his brows tightly furrowed.

There was a cloud of dust billowing over there, and it seemed that a large number of ferocious beasts were converging toward the valley.

He looked up into the sky with his brows tightly furrowed, and a reminiscent look flashed through his eyes, but he quickly composed himself and turned toward Han Li.

At this moment, Han Li's eyes were tightly closed, and he seemed to be completely oblivious to everything that was happening in the outside world. His entire body was glowing with light, and the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth around him had formed a massive white vortex. Enormous spiritual Qi fluctuations surged up into the sky, connecting with the dark clouds in the sky, and it was as if a massive pillar had been erected within the valley.

At the center of the vortex, Han Li's body was lifted into the air by the spiritual Qi, and his acupoints were flashing like starlight. His skin was as smooth as jade, and his bones and meridians were almost completely visible, and they were shimmering with a faint golden luster.

Right at this moment, he suddenly opened his eyes, opened his mouth, and spat out a mouthful of murky black Qi. The surging white clouds in the surroundings were like kerosene that had been splashed with sparks, and they suddenly burst into flames.

The white clouds surged violently, and it was as if countless balls of white flames had sprung up within them. These balls of white flames were incessantly scorching Han Li's body, causing his body to become more and more translucent.

At this moment, the lead-black clouds above the white flames began to light up, and there seemed to be a five-colored radiance shining out from them, presenting a pleasant scene of clouds and rosy clouds.

At the end of the day, what a Primordial Immortal wanted was a pure immortal body that was as pure as a flawless piece of jade.

In terms of physical strength, it was naturally far superior to that of a Golden Immortal. Every move of hers was more powerful, and her spiritual sense and divine thoughts could also be improved to a higher level. But the foundation was that the body's spirituality had returned to its original state, and it was more compatible with the Heaven and Earth, the Great Dao, and the Dharma. This made it easier for her to comprehend and accommodate the power of the Dharma.

It could be said that the degree of purity of a Primordial Unity Jade Fairy's body directly affected how far she could go on the path of comprehending the Dharma and cultivating the Great Dao.

And the reason why Han Li could trigger such a magnificent scene of the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth was naturally related to his previous experience in the four Thunder Pools.

Shi Chuankong was attracted by the turbulence of Heaven and Earth caused by Han Li, so he woke up from his meditation and looked at him.

After a long while, he sighed and said, "You're actually able to draw out such a magnificent scene. As expected of Fellow Daoist Li, you're always able to do some extremely shocking things."

After saying that, he turned his eyes to the silver wall and could not help but frown.

He saw that the purplish spiders, regardless of their size, were all shooting colorful spider webs at the wall. The wall was covered with moss and weeds, and the green snake spiders were also climbing up along the spider webs.

"Roar …"

With a wild roar, the black ape climbed up the giant web shot by the largest purplish spider, and with the support of its arms, it flipped over the silver wall. Saliva dripped from its mouth, and with a bloodthirsty red light flashing in its eyes, it pounced straight at Han Li.

However, before it had a chance to descend, a streak of silver light abruptly flashed past, and its head exploded amid a loud thump, sending a vast expanse of crimson blood splattering all over the ground.

The death of the giant ape had no effect on the other beasts, and all of them continued to charge toward the silver wall with no regard for their own safety.

Within the dense mist deep within the valley, a series of gargantuan figures were also gradually becoming clearer.

"You should be calling me Fellow Daoist Xie, right, Fellow Daoist?" Shi Chuankong asked as he rose into the air.

Daoist Xie did not reply and merely turned to appraise him expressionlessly.

"It looks like Brother Li won't be able to come out of seclusion anytime soon. More and more beasts will be attracted to this mountain range by the turbulence of the world's origin Qi here, and they'll only become more and more powerful as time goes on, so we have to work together to ensure his safety.

As such, there's no need for you to be overly wary of me; I have no intention of harming Brother Li, "Shi Chuankong said with a smile.

Daoist Xie merely nodded upon hearing this and did not say anything.

"I hope I don't make a loss this time..." Shi Chuankong sighed with a resigned smile.

After that, he flew up and landed on the silver wall. With a twist of his wrist, a silver mirror the size of a human head appeared in his palm. He cast a spell with one hand, and the mirror immediately ejected silver light rays toward the green snakes and spiders that were climbing up the city wall. Wherever the light rays passed, the bodies of the vicious beasts would explode, and the stinky mucus and blood would intertwine.

Daoist Xie withdrew his gaze and gripped his sabers with both hands again as lightning crackled around them.

His body then abruptly plunged into the ground at the mouth of the valley before disappearing into the ground.

After a short moment, a rumbling sound came from the ground as hundreds of lightning beams shot up from below like a fountain, and they blasted the ground at the entrance of the valley to the point smoke and dust rose up into the air and shattered it.

Countless beasts that had just reached the mouth of the valley were caught by the lightning geyser and killed.

There was a loud "boom".

A huge hole was blasted open on the ground, and a snow-white centipede that was over a thousand feet in length fiercely rushed out from the ground. Its body flew up to a thousand feet in the air before falling heavily to the ground. All the joints on its body were broken, and its whole body was dripping with dark green blood that was incomparably stinky.

Atop its head, Daoist Xie slowly withdrew his Thunderclap Saber, which had been impaled into the centipede's carapace.

The lightning armored Dao-soldiers had already eliminated all of the ferocious beasts in the valley, and they had not suffered many casualties. Under Daoist Xie's command, they began to assemble at the entrance of the valley, setting up a dense defensive line.

......

Over three months passed by in the blink of an eye.

Rumbling booms rang out in the air above the valley as lightning flashed and thunder rumbled within the clouds. A giant winged snake was half-concealed within the clouds, and its entire body was shimmering with red light as it blasted streaks of black light from its mouth in all directions.

Behind the clouds, there was a figure with arcs of golden lightning revolving around its body, and it was wielding a pair of antiquated sabers that were constantly lashing out at the snake's body.

His body was flashing extremely quickly, and each time he appeared, he would leave a massive wound on the winged snake's body.

The snake's green eyes were filled with resentment, but it was completely unable to keep up with its massive body and the speed of the man.

At that moment, a bolt of lightning flashed and the silhouette suddenly appeared on the back of the winged snake. The long blades in his hands slashed out at the same time. Two huge blades condensed from lightning fell on the base of the winged snake's wings and fiercely cut through them.
