"Fellow Li, knowing too much is not necessarily a good thing.
This matter will only bring you more harm than good. "Gu Qianxun's expression did not change as she spoke.
Han Li did not speak anymore and slowly raised his arm.
A white light appeared on his body once again as an incomparably powerful aura erupted from his body. It was even stronger than the aura he released when he blocked all of Gu Qianxun's attacks. Furthermore, it was filled with a ferocious intent, as if a peerless ferocious beast had awakened and was charging towards Gu Qianxun.
"Why do you have to do this? I will speak." Gu Qianxun looked at Han Li and sighed.
Han Li stopped his actions and stopped using his aura to suppress Gu Qianxun. However, he did not disperse her aura either.
"I am …"
Gu Qianxun's expression seemed to relax as she spoke.
As she spoke, the white bone spear in her hand suddenly shot out without any warning, stabbing towards Han Li as if it were a venomous viper that was about to attack.
Han Li seemed to have expected this. With a casual wave of his arm, the white bone spear appeared in his hand and was about to counterattack.
However, at this moment, the bone spear suddenly trembled violently and the stellar acupoints on it shone brightly, turning into a white sun.
With a loud "bang", the entire bone spear exploded into a dozen pieces. With a terrifying whistling sound, the pieces flew towards Han Li.
The tip of the spear split apart again and turned into four white petals. These four petals immediately shot out and turned into four white shadows that shot towards Han Li's chest.
The speed of the white petals was much faster than the other pieces of the bone spear. In a flash, they were only half a foot away from Han Li's chest. Wherever they passed, black lines would appear in the air.
Han Li's brows furrowed slightly as he shot back in retreat, and at the same time, he threw a punch through the air.
Boom!
The air in front of him instantly froze and turned into an invisible wall.
The four white petals that were formed by the spear stopped in mid-air. Like four ferocious fishes, they struggled and tried to pierce through the invisible wall.
However, the four petals only advanced half a foot before they finally stopped.
The other fragments of the bone spear crashed into the invisible wall, producing a series of loud crackling sounds. However, they were all blocked.
"Fellow Daoist Li, until we meet again."
The instant the bone spear exploded, Gu Qianxun's figure had already flown far away. In the blink of an eye, she had already flown thousands of feet away. However, her cold voice was still lingering in the air, and it was impossible to tell if she was happy or sad.
Han Li's body flashed as he prepared to give chase again.
However, right at this moment, a pile of collapsed buildings near Shi Chuankong suddenly exploded, and a black silhouette shot out from within, pouncing towards Shi Chuankong. It was the Demonic Ape that had been sent flying by Han Li.
The demonic ape roared furiously, and its huge fist punched out like lightning. It turned into a black afterimage and punched towards Shi Chuankong's head.
Frowning, Han Li retracted his gaze from Gu Qianxun and disappeared in a flash.
"Peng!" A loud muffled sound rang out!
The Demonic Ape's fist stopped half a foot away from Shi Chuankong's head. This was because a palm appeared out of thin air and stopped the Demonic Ape's fist. No matter how much strength the Demonic Ape used, it was unable to push the fist down.
Han Li's figure immediately appeared, and his other arm turned blurry.
"Peng!" A loud sound rang out!
The Demonic Ape's huge body flew out like a straw. Just as it flew into the air, its body suddenly exploded and turned into countless black gas.
At this moment, Gu Qianxun's figure had already disappeared into the depths of a building far away.
Han Li looked in the direction where she had disappeared.
Even though Gu Qianxun had already escaped far away, he still had a 50% chance of catching up to her. However, he did not chase after her.
Even though Gu Qianxun did not say it, he had some guesses in his heart as to why this woman wanted to kill Shi Chuankong.
Han Li's gaze turned towards Shi Chuankong, who was on the ground, and was about to speak.
Shi Chuankong looked at him with his eyes, and with some difficulty, he raised his hand and shook it.
Seeing this, Han Li's eyebrows twitched, and he stopped talking.
Shi Chuankong took a deep breath, and his hand reached into his tattered clothes. He took out a white jade bottle and poured out a blood red pill.
As the pill entered his stomach, his face immediately turned blood red, and the wounds on his body started to glow red.
Under the intertwining of the red light, the wounds healed quickly, and in a few breaths, they almost disappeared.
Shi Chuankong's eyes suddenly revealed a dignified look, and he started to chant. His fingers started to move around his body.
"Pu!" A light sound was heard, and a crystal clear blood light appeared on his chest, swaying gently.
Han Li saw this, and his face revealed a look of astonishment.
When Shi Chuankong saw the blood light, his face revealed a trace of joy. His fingers moved even faster, and he chanted an incantation.
A "hualala" sound came out from his body, and it sounded like a surging river.
The crystal clear blood light on Shi Chuankong's chest swayed, and then it slowly began to move, moving from his chest to his left arm.
His face froze, and he used his right palm as a knife. Without hesitation, he fiercely chopped his left shoulder, and his left arm was cut off.
As soon as the left arm was separated from Shi Chuankong's body, the crystal clear blood light on it immediately shone, and turned into a blood-red flame, wrapping the left arm in it, and burning it.
When Han Li saw this, he grabbed Shi Chuankong's body, and pulled him to the side.
The red light on Shi Chuankong's face didn't disappear at this moment. The wound on his left shoulder flashed, and the wound immediately stopped bleeding. His expression immediately relaxed.
At this moment, Shi Chuankong's left arm had turned into ashes, and the blood-red flame had disappeared, leaving only a crystal clear blood bead floating there.
When Han Li saw this scene, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Don't move." Shi Chuankong's voice sounded in Han Li's ears.
When Han Li heard this, his heart moved, and he stood there quietly, without moving.
The crystal clear blood bead trembled slightly, as if it was sensing the situation around it. After a moment, it seemed to finally give up, and with a whoosh, it drilled into the ground, and disappeared.
Shi Chuankong's expression relaxed, and he struggled to stand up. His right hand reached into his bosom again, took out a blood jade-like pill, and swallowed it.
When his left shoulder was cut off, it immediately emitted a bright blood light, and countless flesh sprouted out of the broken arm, which grew crazily.
In just a dozen breaths, a brand new arm grew out.
When Han Li saw this, his eyes lit up slightly. If it was outside, it wouldn't be difficult to use the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to restore the broken arm, but it was not easy to do this in the Accumulated Scales Space Realm.
Although the broken arm grew out, Shi Chuankong's face was still extremely pale. He sat cross-legged, activated the power of blood in his body, and refined the pill.
Han Li didn't disturb him. He silently walked to the side, and closed his eyes to rest.
Time passed little by little, and in the blink of an eye, three days and three nights had passed.
Shi Chuankong's complexion recovered a lot, and he slowly opened his eyes. After exhaling a long breath, he stood up.
"How is it? Are you alright?" Han Li had stood up at some point, and asked.
"Brother Li, it's all thanks to your help this time. Otherwise, I would have really died here," Shi Chuankong said with a wry smile.
"Since you and I are friends, there's no need to say these things. But, what's with the blood bead just now?" Han Li waved his hand, and asked.
"That's the Blood Trace Secret Technique of Eco. He can plant his own blood essence into the body of others, and he can completely monitor all the movements of others within a certain distance.
I was just affected by the Void Explosion Talisman. Although I was seriously injured, the power of the Void Explosion Talisman also destroyed a part of the Blood Trace Secret Technique by a freak combination of factors. That's why I was able to expel it from my body, "Shi Chuankong explained.
"I see.
It seems that although this Accumulated Scale Spatial Realm isolates the World Essence Qi, there are a lot of such techniques. "Han Li nodded.
"Previously, it was also because of this Blood Trace Secret Technique that my attitude towards Brother Li was cold. I hope you don't blame me," Shi Chuankong said with some apologies.
"Brother Shi, it was natural for you to do so in that situation.
But I don't understand, why did Eco plant the Blood Trace Secret Technique in your body? "Han Li's eyes flashed, and asked.
When Shi Chuankong heard this, his expression slightly stiffened, and a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes. He didn't speak for a while.
Han Li also didn't urge him, and just quietly looked at Shi Chuankong.
"If it wasn't for Brother Li's help just now, I would be a corpse now. Regarding those things that happened before, I won't hide anything.
In fact, I followed you to this Accumulated Scale Spatial Realm, in addition to helping you find the purple spirit, there is another purpose. It should be said that this is the main reason I entered the Accumulated Scale Spatial Realm. "Shi Chuankong was silent for about a quarter of an hour, and then raised his head and said.
"Oh, what's the other purpose?" Han Li wasn't surprised.
The previous conversation between Shi Chuankong and Shi Zhanfeng had already made him vaguely guess that Shi Chuankong had another purpose in coming to the Accumulated Scale Spatial Realm.
Shi Chuankong's eyes flashed, and slowly said, "It's to find the Accumulated Scale Sacred Skeleton."
"Accumulated Scale Sacred Skeleton … What's that?" Han Li's eyes moved, and asked.
"I'm not very clear about the specifics, but it's said to be a peerless treasure that is extremely helpful in breaking through the bottleneck of the Grand Heavenly Realm. It's likely to be hidden in the Great Ruins." Shi Chuankong's eyes flashed with excitement.
Han Li just nodded slightly, and didn't seem to have much of a reaction.
"I originally entered the Accumulated Scale Spatial Realm for Third Brother, but naturally, I don't need it now. Next, I have to live for myself.
Brother Li, I have some information about the Great Ruins in my hands, which was given to me by Third Brother. A large part of the reason why Eco imprisoned me was to obtain that information.
Brother Li, I wonder if you're interested in searching for the Accumulated Scale Sacred Skeleton with me? It'll be of great help to you. "Shi Chuankong sighed, and changed the topic.
"In that case, Eco also entered the Great Ruins to obtain the Sacred Skeleton, right?" Han Li asked.
"Most likely so.
However, this person has many secrets. According to my observations over the years, Eco seems to have other intentions besides the Sacred Skeleton, "Shi Chuankong said with a frown.
"Since Eco's goal is also this thing, if we search for the Sacred Skeleton, it'll be equivalent to becoming enemies with Eco. This is a serious matter, and I'll need to think about it before I can answer you," Han Li muttered.
"Of course." Shi Chuankong immediately nodded.
For the rest of the time, the two didn't move forward, and continued to recuperate on the spot.
The main reason was that Shi Chuankong's injuries were too serious this time. At the moment, it seemed that he was fine, but in fact, his internal vitality was extremely damaged, and he needed a long time to recuperate gradually.
The two of them recuperated for a full three days, and only after Shi Chuankong had recovered about 50% of his vitality did they continue to walk towards the depths of the square.
