"Leave it to me," Daoist Xie said in an indifferent voice before spreading open his arms to summon a pair of antiquated sabers that were enshrouded in lightning.
Immediately thereafter, lightning flashed over his body, and he abruptly disappeared amid a loud thunderclap.
In the next instant, Daoist Xie appeared in front of the four-armed skeleton amid a dull thunderclap.
Two dazzling bolts of lightning lit up beside him and shot down like a pair of lightning wings, pouncing straight toward the four-armed headless skeleton.
An earth-shattering boom rang out in rapid succession!
In the face of the relentless onslaught of Daoist Xie and his Dao soldiers, the vast expanse of purplish-golden lightning first formed a series of giant balls of lightning before exploding to form a massive net of lightning that enshrouded the entire four-armed, headless skeleton.
Right at this moment, another powerful aura erupted from the Infernal Inferno Pit down below. Another gargantuan white skeleton slowly crawled out of the lava, and it was even larger in size than the first skeleton.
Han Li knew that the longer this dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for them. As such, he waved a hand through the air, and 18 Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords shot forth toward one of the skeletal temples.
With a whistling sound, the eighteen Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords released a burst of Sword Qi. They spun in the air and transformed into thousands of misty Azure Sword Shadows, transforming into a majestic torrent of Sword Qi.
Han Li was controlling the Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords with his spiritual sense in an attempt to search for Daoist Master Reflecting Bone's true body, but his spiritual sense was severely restricted in someone else's Spirit Domain, so he was unable to track down Daoist Master Reflecting Bone's location.
The torrent of sword shadows surged forward and soon arrived in front of the White Bone Temple.
The ghostly green flames in the eye sockets of all the snow-white skulls on the white bone pedestal flickered. Abruptly, they expanded several times in size, and spurted out streams of green smoke from their bony mouths, rushing towards the torrent of sword shadows.
Thousands of sword shadows rushed into the smoke and were immediately entangled by the green smoke. Green copper rust quickly appeared on the surface of the sword shadows, and the sword shadows were rapidly corroded.
In the blink of an eye, nearly a thousand sword shadows were corroded, decomposed, and vanished.
Han Li sensed the strangeness of the green smoke. He suddenly changed his hand sign and shouted, "Explode!"
A series of violent crackling sounds of electricity rang out!
An incomparably brilliant golden electric light suddenly exploded from within the green smoke. Countless golden electric threads burst out from within, tearing the entire green smoke screen apart and shattering it into pieces.
In the face of the lightning bolts that combined the Divine Devilbane Thunder and the Bone Cleansing Golden Thunder, the green mist was unable to resist at all. It was completely destroyed, revealing the White Bone Temple behind it.
"Kid, you really do have some skills. What a pity …" At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from a place very close to Han Li, and there was a hint of praise in the voice.
Han Li frowned, as if he couldn't afford to be distracted. He focused on controlling the remaining sword shadows to stab at the White Bone Temple.
However, at this moment, the White Bone Temple glowed brightly, and all the snow-white skulls actually flew up and spread out in all directions, voluntarily opening up the space in front of them.
Han Li's Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords actually hit empty air. At this moment, it was already too late to release the power of lightning to chase after those skulls.
What was even more troublesome was that the scattered white skulls actually spread out in all directions, rushing straight towards Han Li and Shi Chuankong. Even under the influence of Han Li's Spiritual Domain, their speed was still extremely fast.
Seeing this, Shi Chuankong was about to stop the escape secret technique that he had prepared for a long time and use his spatial ability to block these skulls, but he heard Han Li's voice transmission.
"The gap has been opened, don't stop, leave these things to me!"
Shi Chuankong made up his mind, and without a word, he continued to activate the secret technique.
Han Li, on the other hand, withdrew his sword art and secretly activated the Mantra Transmutation Scripture. A dazzling golden light shone behind him.
However, right at this moment, a sudden turn of events abruptly took place!
Before the Mantra Transmutation Scripture had a chance to reveal itself, Han Li's body abruptly stiffened, and his immortal spiritual power also ceased to circulate.
He couldn't help but tense up. Then, he found that all the bones in his body seemed to be out of control in an instant. His arms were raised up and spread out to the sides. It was as if he was nailed to a cross and couldn't move at all.
Shi Chuankong, who was not far away from him, also had his secret technique forcibly disrupted, and he was also immobilized on the spot with blood trickling down from the corner of his lips.
In contrast, only Daoist Xie and the lightning armored Dao soldiers were unaffected and could still move freely.
Seeing as Han Li's situation had changed, Daoist Xie gripped his Lightning Slash and Sky Severing sabers with both hands, and the two sabers lit up with lightning at the same time before abruptly exploding upon contact.
"Bang!" A loud sound rang out!
A burst of violent lightning abruptly exploded, shattering over 1,000 bones in the surrounding area. Two streaks of dazzling lightning intertwined with one another before forming a spiraling pillar of light that hurtled directly toward Han Li up in the air.
However, he had only flown for a distance of a thousand feet when a humanoid figure emerged from within the mist, and the figure swept a sleeve through the air to unleash a powerful shockwave that struck the spiraling pillar of light.
Another burst of violent lightning exploded in the dark sky, and Daoist Xie's body plummeted down from above.
As soon as he got close to the sea, two huge headless skeletons surrounded him from the left and right. They waved the bone weapons in their hands and fought with him.
The humanoid figure up above wore a dark green Daoist robe, and it was none other than Daoist Master Reflecting Bone.
He glanced down at Daoist Xie with a disdainful sneer before turning his gaze toward Han Li.
Han Li's cultivation base, temperament, and mastery of the power of laws were the only ones that he held in high regard among all of the beings in the sea.
"How is it? Does it feel good to have your bones shackled?
Don't worry, I'll make you two part of my Bone Capital soon, "Daoist Master Reflecting Bone chuckled coldly from several hundred feet away.
He waved a hand through the air as he spoke, and the skulls hovering in the air immediately shot forth one after another, pouncing toward Han Li and Shi Chuankong with their mouths wide open.
Wherever the white bones passed, blood would splatter violently. The skin on Han Li and Shi Chuankong's bodies had ruptured and their flesh had been torn open, revealing a series of horrifying wounds that left one's scalp tingling with fear.
The pain of having one's flesh torn inch by inch was clearly displayed on Han Li and Shi Chuankong's bodies, but they could only look on helplessly, unable to resist.
Shi Chuankong possessed the body of a true devil to begin with, while Han Li possessed the body of a Profound Immortal. Both of them possessed formidable physical strength, and with every inch of flesh and blood that was torn off the skull, he was able to draw a wisp of powerful flesh and blood energy, causing the ghostly flames in his eye sockets to burn even brighter.
Daoist Master Reflecting Bone's smile widened upon seeing this. He had initially planned to kill the two of them with lightning speed, but now, all he wanted to do was slowly torture Han Li and Shi Chuankong so that he could utilize his physical strength to the fullest.
"Ugh …" Shi Chuankong gritted his teeth, but he still couldn't help but let loose a low growl.
If it was just the usual pain of cutting his skin, he wouldn't even frown. But now, every time these white skulls bit him, a dark green smoke would seep into his body from the wound and fuse into his bones.
The strong corrosive power of the green smoke was the real reason why he was in so much pain.
On the other side, Han Li was also suffering from the same pain. Deep within his wounds, his bones were glittering and translucent, as if they were made of jade. Even under the influence of the green smoke, they were still glowing with a faint light.
This was the transformation of his body after he became a Primordial Unity Jade Fairy, which made his ability to resist the corrosive power of the green smoke several times stronger than Shi Chuankong.
"I almost forgot that you're also a Primordial Unity Jade Fairy …" Daoist Master Reflecting Bone sneered when he saw this.
After that, he hesitated for a moment, and then his body suddenly flashed and disappeared.
In the next instant, he abruptly appeared in front of Han Li, then abruptly raised a hand before thrusting a finger directly toward Han Li's glabella.
Han Li's bones were all restrained, and he couldn't move at all.
He stared at Daoist Master Reflecting Bone with a calm expression, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
When Daoist Master Reflecting Bone's fingers were about to touch his forehead, a cold light flashed in Han Li's eyes, and he suddenly activated the fifth stage of the Cultivation of Spirit Cultivation Art. Almost all the power of his Divine Will was gathered in one spot.
"Puff!"
There seemed to be a soft sound, but it also seemed to be silent.
A translucent small sword that was only around an inch in length abruptly shot forth from Han Li's glabella. There were faint runes flashing on the surface of the sword, and it instantly disappeared into Daoist Master Reflecting Bone's oncoming fingertip.
The moment Daoist Master Reflecting Bone saw the small crystal sword, he realized that something was wrong, but it was too late for him to stop. He could only use the Celestial Spiritual Power in his body to resist the divine will sword.
However, the moment the divine will sword sank into his fingertip, it suddenly appeared in his spiritual sea.
The Divine Sense Sword was only an inch long, but when it entered Reverend Reflecting Bone's consciousness, it transformed into a gigantic sword and slashed down from the sky above Reverend Reflecting Bone.
The divine will sword was inscribed with strange rune patterns, and it was shining brightly. The sword was emitting waves of powerful Divine Will, which turned into powerful airwaves and pressed down from above.
Inside Daoist Master Reflecting Bone's spiritual sea, there was a storm, and turbid waves. Pitch-black cracks were everywhere, as if it was about to be torn apart by the force.
In his spiritual sea, a little man in a Taoist robe appeared with his divine soul. His eyes were filled with pain, and there was a look of horror on his face. He did not expect that an Early-stage Primordial Unity Jade Immortal could have such a powerful divine will. However, there was no point in regretting now.
