"Is that Han Li? The one who could storm the Jinyuan Immortal Palace alone and still retreat unscathed..." After a long while, Su Anqian regained her senses and murmured.

Jin Liu's gaze fell on Han Li, becoming increasingly complex.

Lei Yuce glanced at Wen Zhong and gently shook his head. The latter nodded in understanding, and they both watched from the sidelines without making a sound.

Su Anqian quickly recovered her usual cold demeanor from the previous surprise and had no intention of speaking.

Jiao San and Hu San naturally remained silent.

Seeing this, She Chan scanned everyone present before finally focusing on the Lan Yuanzi siblings.

"Please forgive me, Elder She. My brother and I have already sworn that within this Time Pagoda Secret Realm, we will absolutely not attack Fellow Daoist Han again. If you need us to take action, please wait until we leave this place," Lan Yuanzi said with a troubled expression, cupping his fist.

"Nonsense! Faced with such a matter of principle, why should you adhere to such a trivial oath? Have you forgotten the purpose of pursuing this person?" She Chan emphasized the word "purpose" and said.

Lan Yuanzi's expression changed slightly upon hearing this, but after hesitating for a moment, he maintained his cupped-fist posture, refusing to rise.

Lan Yan also lowered her head and cupped her fist, remaining silent.

"Good, good, good... Good for you, Lan siblings! I will report this matter to the Ancestor upon my return to the sect. I will definitely demand an explanation from your master," She Chan said with a sneer, repeating "good" several times.

Lan Yan's expression immediately changed upon hearing this, and she was about to stand up.

"It's not the disobedience we fear; it's our faithlessness that would break our master's heart," Lan Yuanzi whispered, grabbing her sleeve.

Lan Yan then bowed again, ceasing her movement.

It was one thing for others not to help, but the refusal of his own sect members made She Chan feel humiliated. His gaze swept over the two of them darkly.

"Remember your choice today. I hope you won't regret it in the future," She Chan said slowly, his words laden with warning.

Jin Liu watched this scene, a mocking smile surfacing in his eyes as he folded his arms and observed.

He knew that the more enraged She Chan became at this moment, the more ruthless his attack on Han Li would be later, which was naturally what he wanted to see.

Han Li stood with his hands behind his back, silently calculating how to deal with the yellow-robed hag before him. From beginning to end, there was no change in his expression, and a faint smile even played on his lips.

"Let's see how long you can stay so relaxed," Jin Liu sneered inwardly.

"Since you all choose to be bystanders, then be good spectators, and preferably stay far away." With those words, the yellow-robed hag vanished from her spot without warning, leaving behind only a swirl of yellow light.

Seeing this, the crowd scattered.

The next moment, a gust of wind and sand rose up behind Han Li, and a sheet of yellow sand gathered from all directions, enveloping him.

Han Li had anticipated this. The Mantra Treasure Wheel in his body reversed, and his figure instantly disappeared from the spot, allowing the yellow sand to fall on empty air.

The yellow sand splashed upon landing, revealing a yellow light barrier that expanded in all directions, instantly engulfing an area of nearly a hundred miles.

Han Li felt his body sink, and a heavy force of suppression came from the ground. The void seemed to be crushed by several invisible peaks, greatly restricting his movements.

Within She Chan's domain, the yellow sands shifted and changed. Mountains, not high but stretching far, emerged at the edges, appearing barren and lifeless.

Closer to Han Li, the ground surged with yellow light, revealing pools of yellow mud of various shapes and sizes. The ochre-colored liquid within bubbled gently, occasionally releasing large bubbles.

Han Li wrinkled his nose at the stench emanating from them, feeling disgusted.

"Gurgle, gurgle..."

Just then, Han Li heard a low croaking sound. His mind stirred, and he quickly turned to look behind him, his expression changing slightly.

In a mud pool only a few hundred feet away, the head of a toad the size of a house emerged from the murky water. Its golden eyes stared at him coldly, and the dense bumps on its head sent shivers down his spine.

Han Li flicked his wrist slightly, and golden lightning crackled around him. Thirty-six Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords appeared at the same time, darting through the air and shooting towards the giant yellow toad.

"Zizzzz..."

The sword tips sparked with electricity. Suppressed by the earth-attribute law power in the domain, their speed was much slower than usual, but their aura and power remained undiminished.

As the flying swords approached, the sword lights converged and lightning crackled, ready to strike. But the yellow toad suddenly dove into the mud, disappearing from sight.

Han Li quickly activated the Refinement Arts, urging his divine sense to search for the toad. But he could only sense a vast, sea-like force of earth-attribute law power, and he could not detect the toad's trace at all.

"It's actually using its own domain as cover, completely merging its aura. This is a bit tricky," Han Li muttered to himself, his brows furrowing.

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt the ground beneath him rise violently, and he was lifted into the air along with the earth by the toad that suddenly burst out from below.

Han Li's expression remained unchanged. He raised his hand and gestured sharply, and the thirty-six Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords immediately trembled and flew back, guarding his sides.

However, before the flying swords could approach, he suddenly felt a shadow above his head. A hundred-zhang mountain suddenly shot over from afar, directly smashing down on him.

If this mountain were just an ordinary object, Han Li would not be afraid. But it was actually a refined object from She Chan's Creation Realm domain, containing a dense earth-attribute law power. Its weight was more than a thousand jun!

Han Li frowned slightly, immediately pointing his fingers upward. The Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords immediately changed their sword forms, turning their blades to fly upwards.

As the mountain was about to hit Han Li, the thirty-six Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords emitted sharp sword cries and pierced into the bottom of the mountain. Azure-gold lights shone brightly on the sword bodies, and lightning sword shadows surged wildly.

Countless golden lightning bolts connected to form a huge golden sea of lightning, holding up the entire mountain and preventing it from falling.

Han Li then activated the Heavenly Fiend Suppressing Prison Art, turning his body and adopting a descending posture. He drew his fist to his side, ready to unleash a punch.

The ground had already collapsed into a huge pit. A giant yellow toad was opening its blood basin mouth, almost as large as the pit itself, swallowing Han Li above.

Han Li fell rapidly, entering the yellow toad's mouth in just a few breaths.

The toad's eyes flashed coldly, and its giant mouth snapped shut, swallowing Han Li.

But at the same time, Han Li's fist force had also gathered. The starlight shone brightly on his fist, and he punched down.

With a loud bang!

A dazzling white light bloomed in the toad's mouth. Its tightly closed giant mouth was torn open with countless cracks by a powerful gale and force. Countless glittering starlight projected from within.

Then, with another booming sound, the giant yellow toad exploded instantly, and Han Li's figure reappeared from within.

With the death of the yellow toad, the surrounding environment changed immediately. The domain light barrier shrank rapidly, its range shrinking tenfold in an instant. The light also gradually dimmed, as if it would soon disappear.

At the same time, the mountain in the sky also seemed to suddenly melt, turning into a stream of ochre-colored sludge, scattering down from the sky like a mudslide.

Han Li was caught underneath it and was drenched.

He gestured with his wrist, and the Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords flew back, and he took them into his body.

"How is this possible?"

The people who were avoiding the battle in the distance had strange expressions. It was difficult to believe that She Chan, a dignified Grand Luo, had been defeated so easily.

Among them, Jin Liu's expression changed the most interestingly, appearing both disappointed and angry.

At this moment, another change occurred!

Han Li's body, suspended in mid-air, suddenly stiffened. He seemed to freeze in place and fell straight down from the air uncontrollably, landing on the ground with a "thump."

"Not good!" Jiao San frowned and lunged forward for dozens of miles.

"What are you doing? Don't forget our mission. The big picture is the most important thing..." Seeing this, Hu San quickly chased after her and stopped her.

Hearing this, Jiao San stopped and looked towards that side from afar.

The yellow mud that had dripped on Han Li had turned into a layer of mud armor, wrapping him completely and solidifying into an ochre-colored shell, making him look like a human-shaped terracotta figure.

But unlike ordinary terracotta figures, the mud shell around Han Li was covered with strange patterns, containing extremely powerful earth-attribute law power, like a powerful imprisonment law, sealing him inside.

At first, Han Li's body seemed to struggle slightly, but as the color of the mud armor deepened rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, his body began to be motionless.

After the mud shell was completely solidified and dry, a "plop" sound came from the mud pool not far away. A toad, no larger than a palm and covered in mud, jumped out, its body shining with ochre light, transforming into a yellow-robed hag.

"Heh heh! A mere Taiyi Realm cultivator actually thought he could stir up much trouble?" She Chan glanced at the "terracotta figure" beside her, her eyes full of mocking laughter.
