Han Li was unscathed, blocking the glittering sword Qi, but the others were not so fortunate.

The spherical light罩 around the Lan siblings crackled as it was sliced open.

The spherical light罩 flashed wildly with blue light, on the verge of collapse, with even a hint of blood red visible within.

The two of them paled, rapidly forming hand seals. Their bodies flashed with intense blue light, and strands of blue crystalline silk shot out, merging into the blue protective shield.

The shield instantly surged with watery light, and eight azure dragon phantoms emerged, circling the spherical shield rapidly, emitting roars of dragons.

The blue shield stabilized, stubbornly resisting the sword Qi attacks, while retreating backward, quickly flying out of the square.

Inside the shield, Lan Yuanzi's arm was severed at the elbow, and Lan Yan had a deep sword wound on her shoulder, her face filled with panic.

The power of these crystalline sword Qi far exceeded their expectations. Fortunately, they had deployed their trump card defensive immortal artifact, the Eight Dragon Water Beads, or they would have been killed on the spot.

The white light罩 in front of Hu San and Jiao San was in a similar situation, with cracks appearing from the crystalline sword Qi, seemingly about to shatter.

At the critical moment, Jiao San pressed both hands on the light罩, his palms erupting with two balls of dark red light, forming a dark red shield, with a force of Samsara Laws churning within.

Although the dark red light罩 did not appear very thick, it was unusually tough, firmly resisting the sword Qi attacks.

However, the two of them did not retreat, their eyes fixed on the direction of the golden altar.

On the other side, the golden light array around Lei Yuce and the other two was struck by the sword Qi. Lei Yuce and Wen Zhong chanted incantations simultaneously, their hands moving like wheels, constantly striking various kinds of magic formulas into the golden light array.

A hundred-foot-tall golden sword shadow emerged within the golden light array, buzzing and trembling. The crystalline sword Qi that flew over obediently remained dormant upon entering the golden light array, circling around the golden sword shadow, and then merged into it like rivers flowing into the sea.

"Huh? Where's Xiong Shan?" Han Li raised an eyebrow, his eyes scanning around.

Xiong Shan was closest to that golden ancient sword. Could he have been killed already?

But the next scene surprised Han Li slightly.

Xiong Shan's body was enveloped in golden light. His entire body had transformed into a golden mist, exuding a cloud-like sword intent.

The sword Qi passed through him, seeming to cause no harm.

"What kind of secret technique is this?" Han Li narrowed his eyes, realizing that the sword Qi passing through Xiong Shan's golden mist was not harmless.

Each time a sword Qi passed through, the golden mist visibly diminished.

Unexpectedly, Xiong Shan did not retreat. The golden mist he had transformed into fluctuated and rolled, and he continued to rush toward the golden ancient sword, reaching within ten feet of it in an instant.

The golden flame next to the ancient sword seemed to sense something, suddenly growing larger by a third and churning violently, emitting sizzling whooshing sounds.

Streaks of golden fire shot out from the flame and merged with the sword Qi emitted by the ancient sword, instantly covering the originally crystalline sword Qi with a faint golden flame, transforming it into a stream of flame sword Qi.

"Boom!"

The flame sword Qi was as if it had taken a great tonic, exploding several times in size, originally only enveloping an area of three or four hundred feet around the altar, but now engulfing an area of nearly a thousand feet.

The golden mist that Xiong Shan had transformed into was immediately covered by the flame sword Qi, violently tumbling and rapidly shrinking, accompanied by miserable screams.

Hu San, Jiao San, Lei Yuce and the others were also immediately submerged in the flame sword Qi, and then roars and exclamations came from within, and no one knew what was happening.

Han Li and the Lan siblings had retreated to a safe place, but now that the sword Qi had surged, they were once again swept into it.

The flame sword Qi struck Han Li's sword screen. With loud clangs, the golden sword screen was instantly torn open. The thirty-six Azure Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords were like leaves in a storm, spinning wildly and being blasted away.

The flame sword Qi tore apart the golden sword formation and immediately struck him.

The True Essence Film around Han Li's body flashed with crystalline light. With a hissing sound, the True Essence Film, which could originally withstand crystalline sword Qi, was now cut with deep sword marks, penetrating more than half of it.

He could no longer hold back, and quickly formed hand seals.

With a "buzz," the Mantra Treasure Wheel emerged behind him, and countless dense ripples appeared, covering a hundred-foot radius.

The flame sword Qi was covered by the golden ripples, and slowed down a lot, but did not stop, and still slashed towards Han Li.

Han Li uttered a soft "hmm" and then looked at the golden flame on the sword Qi, suddenly understanding, and changed his hand seals again.

Golden light flashed next to the Mantra Treasure Wheel, and the Time-Severing Torch appeared. A layer of flame-shaped golden light spread from the Time-Severing Torch, forming a golden domain, which was the Time-Severing Fire Realm.

The number of Time Crystals on the Time-Severing Torch increased sharply, and the power of the Time-Severing Fire Realm also greatly increased. Everything it passed through was completely frozen, not much inferior to Qi Mozi's Time-Severing Fire Realm.

The flame sword Qi was covered by the Time-Severing Fire Realm and finally stopped.

At this moment, a loud noise came from the side, from Lan Yuanzi and the others.

Before the loud noise subsided, a blue sun of several hundred feet in size emerged, and large swaths of blue glow shot out from it, sweeping wildly in all directions.

Eight blue dragons shot out from the sun, baring their fangs and claws, pouncing on the flame sword Qi, blocking the overwhelming flame sword Qi for an instant.

Taking advantage of this brief moment, two figures shot out from the blue sun like lightning, instantly landing in the distance, revealing the figures of Lan Yuanzi and the others.

The two of them were now pale, with several times more wounds on their bodies, covered in blood, looking extremely embarrassed, and hurriedly took out pills to heal their injuries.

Han Li glanced at the two of them and immediately retracted his gaze, looking towards the ancient sword and golden flame at the top of the altar, his eyes full of wonder.

The golden ancient sword was an immortal artifact of the Law of Metal, and the golden flame contained the Law of Time. The two laws could be combined, and their power surged so much.

Before his Azure Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords were born with the Law of Thunder, they could also be combined with the Law of Time, but after the Azure Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords were born with the Law of Thunder and completely transformed into immortal artifacts, they were incompatible with his Law of Time and could no longer be used together.

If his Azure Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords could also be combined with the power of the Law of Time, their power would definitely be extraordinary.

At the thought of this, Han Li's heart was moved, and he raised his hand and waved.

The Azure Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords that had been blown away earlier flew back and disappeared into his sleeves.

Then, with a movement of his body, he flew towards the altar, holding up the Mantra Treasure Wheel and the Time-Severing Fire Realm.

But at this moment, the black wind gushing out of the crack on the altar suddenly surged, and a large swath of black Yin wind instantly swept through the entire cave, and the dense flame sword Qi around the altar could not stop it.

Streams of shrill black wind roared, and the entire cave was instantly filled with flying sand and rocks, and there were rumbling noises everywhere.

Han Li's expression changed slightly, and the figure that had shot out suddenly stopped.

The ancient sword and golden flame on the altar lit up again, and the golden magic array on the altar also flashed wildly. The flame sword Qi that flew out suddenly converged, not caring about attacking Han Li and the others, and covered the crack.

"It's too late to think about dealing with us now!" A burst of sinister laughter came from the black crack, and then the black light in the crack surged.

A thick black lightning bolt shot out from the crack, piercing through all the flame sword Qi in front of it, blasting a big hole, and hitting the golden flame fiercely.

At the moment when the black lightning shot out, a flash of golden light flashed in the dense flame sword Qi, and a sharp sword intent erupted from it, splitting a gap in the dense, rain-like sword Qi.

A thin golden mist shot out from the gap, flashed into the big hole blasted out by the black lightning, and then immediately shot forward along the big hole, and the timing was extremely accurate.

However, all this happened between lightning and flint, and the golden mist was not conspicuous, so no one noticed it.

Han Li and the others only saw a dazzling black electric light flashing past, piercing through the sword Qi in front and hitting the golden flame on the top of the altar.

Only a loud "boom" was heard!

Black and golden lights suddenly burst open, and the nearby void twisted and buzzed.

The golden flame trembled violently a few times, and then with a soft "click," the connection with the Tai Chi pattern below was broken and it was blown away.

The direction in which the flame flew was very clever, and it happened to shoot towards Han Li.

Han Li's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly pinched his fingers, and several strands of Law of Time shot out from the Time-Severing Torch, entangled the golden flame, and then pulled it back sharply.

To his surprise, the golden flame did not struggle or resist at all, and was easily pulled to his side.

At this moment, the thin golden mist also flew to the top of the altar, flashed into a human figure, which was Xiong Shan.

Han Li in the distance couldn't help but exclaim in surprise when he saw this scene.

Xiong Shan looked quite embarrassed and miserable, with countless wounds all over his body, and his legs and left arm were gone, leaving only a scarred right arm.

But strangely, not a drop of blood flowed from these injuries on his body.

The golden ancient sword was still blooming with dazzling sword Qi, and Xiong Shan's body was instantly pierced with countless holes, and his flesh was almost collapsing.

But he didn't blink his eyes, as if he didn't see the miserable condition of his body, but looked at the golden ancient sword with fanaticism, stretched out his only remaining right arm, grasped the hilt of the ancient sword, and then pulled it upwards.

Han Li couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw this scene.

The power of the black lightning bolt just now was only barely able to knock the golden flame off the top of the altar. Xiong Shan looked extremely bad at the moment. It would probably be impossible to pull out the golden ancient sword.

Then a scene unexpected by Han Li and everyone appeared!
