“Wasn't the Li Huo Heavenly Pearl obtained by Han Li? Could it have been snatched away halfway?” Xiong Shan asked, his face showing surprise upon hearing this.

Qi Mozi didn't speak, muttering incantations under his breath, and waved his hand.

A flash of golden light appeared in his palm, revealing a palm-sized golden mirror. A wave of liquid-like golden light spread out from the mirror's surface, rapidly rippling across the surrounding dozens of miles before returning to the mirror's surface.

The golden mirror shimmered, revealing three strands of light: one golden, one white, and one red.

The golden light emanated waves of temporal law, while both the white and red lights emitted the law of fire.

Especially the red light, although much smaller than the white light, emitted even more intense fluctuations of law, suppressing the power of law within the white light.

"Oh, this strand of fire law is quite ingenious, actually able to overshadow the fire law within the Li Huo Heavenly Pearl." Xiong Shan wasn't surprised by the scene before him, evidently having seen it before, and remarked.

"Of course it's ingenious. This strand of fire law is the rumored fundamental law of fire, how could it not suppress the Li Huo Heavenly Pearl!" Qi Mozi said slowly.

"The fundamental law of fire! That explains it. But who left this strand of fundamental law? Among those who entered the Years Pagoda, it seems no one cultivates the law of fire," Xiong Shan said, startled.

Qi Mozi's expression darkened upon hearing this.

His solemn expression was precisely because of this.

There were tens of thousands of laws in the world, with the three supreme laws being the most revered. But fundamental laws were also extraordinary, second only to the three supreme laws, and very few could comprehend them.

Qi Mozi knew everyone who entered the Years Pagoda, and no one cultivated the law of fire. Now, suddenly, someone who cultivated the fundamental law of fire appeared, causing him to be alarmed and secretly wondering if anyone else besides Han Li and his group had entered the Years Pagoda.

"Forget it, overthinking is useless. We'll know when we catch up and see," Qi Mozi shook his head and said.

Xiong Shan naturally wouldn't object to this. The two transformed into two golden rays, flying upwards.

……

At this time, Han Li was continuing to fly upwards with Jing Yan Tong Zi.

The higher he went, the denser the surrounding white mist became. Moreover, the mist gradually became substantial, like strands of silk, entangling Han Li's escape light, greatly reducing his forward speed.

And the further he went, the denser the white mist became, and the greater the obstruction. His escape speed soon fell to only ten percent of its usual speed.

Suddenly, Han Li's expression changed. He stopped his escape light and looked towards the vast white mist ahead, revealing a contemplative look.

Jing Yan Tong Zi looked at Han Li, opening and closing his mouth a few times, and gestured with his little hands, seemingly asking why Han Li had stopped.

Han Li ignored Jing Yan Tong Zi, only staring ahead.

Having reached this point, he could clearly sense a powerful wave of temporal law ahead, no longer as vague as before.

This temporal law was similar to the golden flame aura he had seen at the two array nodes, and should be from the same source.

If he guessed correctly, the source of this wave of temporal law should be the Years God Lamp.

Han Li had carefully inquired about Lei Yu Ce's Black Heaven Demon God seal. The five array nodes were only auxiliary. The Black Heaven Demon God was sealed within a main array, and the Years God Lamp was also within that main array.

Now that the Years God Lamp had revealed a trace, the sealing place of the Black Heaven Demon God was likely there.

Although Han Li didn't fear the Black Heaven Demon God as much as Lei Yu Ce and the others, he still subconsciously didn't want to make direct contact with this demon god who might be a Dao Ancestor.

Since entering this Taisui Pagoda, he had first obtained three Fire Age Firefly insect nests, greatly increasing the number of temporal law crystal silks. He had also just obtained that white fire pearl containing the fundamental source of fire. His gains were already considerable.

If he continued to move forward, it meant taking risks in the sealing place of the Black Heaven Demon God, naturally increasing the risk greatly.

At that moment, a vast, muffled sound transmitted from an unknown location, and the nearby white mist sea also fluctuated slightly.

"What's going on?" Han Li raised an eyebrow.

A white light suddenly lit up on Jing Yan Tong Zi's body. The white fire pearl automatically flew out of his body, and the fire pearl shone brightly, vibrating and buzzing, as if resonating with something.

However, this situation didn't last long. After a few breaths, the white light on the fire pearl quickly dimmed and returned to its original state.

Seeing this, Jing Yan Tong Zi quickly opened his mouth and sucked it back into his body, while tightly hugging his little belly with both hands, as if afraid it would fly away again.

"Could it be that the other two array nodes have been broken, causing this white fire pearl to move?" Han Li smiled slightly upon seeing this, and touched Jing Yan Tong Zi's head, while secretly guessing in his heart.

The five array nodes were connected to each other, and this white fire pearl was the suppressing object of one array node. It was normal for it to be connected with the other two array nodes.

After a slight pause, he quickly stopped thinking about it and looked ahead.

With this brief delay, he had made up his mind to continue forward and see what happened.

After all, he had already arrived here, and it was a pity to retreat at the last moment. He was quite curious about the Years God Lamp and wanted to see it.

Moreover, he had previously agreed to work together with Hu San and others, and it would be a violation of the agreement to leave without permission now.

With that thought in mind, Han Li no longer hesitated. With a light shout, a huge golden sword shadow appeared on the surface of his body, enveloping him, and shooting forward.

Golden electric arcs surrounded the sword shadow, emitting an incomparably sharp sword aura. With a twist, it immediately cut the mist ahead, making his forward speed much faster than before.

However, the good times didn't last long. After advancing another distance, the surrounding white mist became even denser and more resilient.

It became increasingly difficult for the golden sword shadow to break through the mist, and the speed slowed down again.

Seeing this scene, Jing Yan Tong Zi pouted his little mouth and flew out from Han Li's shoulder, opening his mouth and spitting.

The white fire pearl flew out again, merging into the golden sword shadow around Han Li.

Strands of white flames flew out from the fire pearl, entwining around the sword shadow, and echoing with the golden electric arcs.

The sword shadow's speed increased sharply, splitting the mist ahead like a hot knife through butter.

"The future is uncertain, don't waste your energy urging the fire pearl. Conserve your strength," Han Li frowned and said in a deep voice.

Jing Yan Tong Zi grinned, as if saying it was okay.

Han Li carefully sensed the changes in Jing Yan Tong Zi's aura. The consumption was indeed not large. Surprised and delighted, he hurriedly urged the sword light forward with all his strength.

After flying for a while, the white mist ahead suddenly began to thin out, seemingly reaching its end.

The mountain peaks below were no longer boundless, and he could vaguely see their full appearance. It seemed that he had finally reached the summit area.

Han Li was secretly delighted and accelerated his escape speed again.

But in the next moment, with a loud "bang," he crashed into something hard, and the golden sword shadow around him shattered. He was sent flying backwards.

Fortunately, Han Li's physical body was extremely tough, and he was not injured.

The white fire pearl within the sword shadow was also shaken back. Jing Yan Tong Zi hurriedly swallowed it into his body.

"What's going on?" Han Li straightened his body and stood firm. Looking ahead, his expression changed.

He saw a layer of white light curtain appearing in the mist ahead, which didn't seem very thick. He could vaguely see streams of white light flashing within.

However, this light curtain was translucent and mixed in with the mist, making it difficult to detect.

The light curtain seemed boundless. Han Li's divine sense couldn't sense its full extent, nor could it penetrate it, blocking his way like a chasm.

And in the depths of the white light curtain, he could vaguely see a cluster of dazzling golden light, with waves of temporal law emanating from it.

"That is..." Han Li's eyes lit up. He flew to the white light curtain and tried hard to see the situation in the golden light behind it.

Unfortunately, the golden light was dazzling, and there was a light curtain blocking his view. He couldn't see through the situation inside. However, he was sure that was the sealing place of the Black Heaven Demon God.

Han Li retracted his gaze and landed on the white light curtain in front of him, raising his hand and pressing on it.

The white light curtain felt slightly soft to the touch, but deeper inside it was extremely hard, giving people a sense of indestructibility.

Han Li frowned slightly, then shouted in a low voice, and all of his more than nine hundred mysterious acupoints bloomed with light. Then, he raised his hand and punched the light curtain.

With a loud "bang!"

His fist sank deep into the white light curtain, and ripples like water waves appeared on the light curtain around his fist, fluctuating violently.

The nearby void also made a rumbling sound.

But the white light curtain didn't show any signs of shattering. Instead, a huge rebounding force penetrated from it, knocking him away.

Han Li flew back two or three hundred zhang, and a flash of golden light stopped him again.

This time the rebounding force was too strong, twisting his internal organs into a ball. Even with the toughness of his physical body, he couldn't bear it. His face was pale, and it took a long time to recover.

Han Li's expression darkened. He snorted coldly, and formed hand seals, operating the *Tian Sha Zhen Yu Gong*.

In the next moment, his whole body shone with starlight, and his body suddenly soared, transforming into a ten-thousand-zhang-sized giant demon form with three heads and six arms.

One of the giant demon's three heads was a Mountain Giant Ape, another was a True Spirit Heavenly Dragon, and the last was a Wandering Sky Kun Peng.

Three True Spirit bloodline powers rose from his body. A vast aura that surpassed the heavens and earth erupted from him, directly shaking the nearby void.

The golden light behind the white light curtain suddenly fluctuated, but it returned to its original state in the next moment.

Han Li only focused on operating the *Tian Sha Zhen Yu Gong* with all his strength and didn't notice the situation behind the light curtain. The giant demon let out a roar, and his six fists punched out side by side, hitting the white light curtain.

With a loud "boom!"

The light curtain at the place where the six fists hit sank deeply inward, and the light curtain around it vibrated violently, ten times stronger than before.

But even so, the white light curtain remained taut and unbroken. The light curtain bloomed with dazzling light, and the white streamers inside rotated rapidly. A huge and flexible restriction power permeated from it, unexpectedly dissolving the unparalleled power on the giant demon's six fists bit by bit.
