Wang Yu
Chapter 972 Private Grievances
Although he had found the formation diagram of the Blood Weeping Grand Formation in the back hall, he still didn't know why this formation was here, or where the Qi and blood power inside the scarlet light gate came from.
Judging from E Kui's appearance, he probably knew something.
Han Li looked up at the sky, his mind racing.
E Kui and Sha Xin had left this place without hesitation, it seemed that the holy remains were not here, but were mostly hidden deeper in the Great Ruins.
However, in order to pursue Zi Ling and to leave this Scale Accumulation Void Realm, he could not retreat, no matter how dangerous it was.
Han Li exhaled a long breath, seemingly expelling all the worries in his heart, and his face returned to calm.
He clasped his hands together, and a great white light burst forth from his body, revealing dense Mysterious Aperture light spots, as many as four hundred and seventy-five.
Although Zhuo Ge had been in the way just now, he had still used the power of the Blood Weeping Grand Formation to cultivate the first three layers of the Heavenly Fiend Prison Suppression Technique to perfection before the formation collapsed.
What's more, the Palm Heaven Bottle in his body had absorbed most of the power of the Blood Weeping Grand Formation, and it could be used to open up other Mysterious Apertures in the future.
With his current physical cultivation, although he was still no match for E Kui and Sha Xin, apart from them, no one else from Xuan City and Puppet City was his opponent.
And with his movement speed, even if he faced E Kui and Sha Xin, he should still have a chance to escape.
Han Li quickly restrained the white light on his body and jumped back to the ground.
He turned his gaze and looked at the other side of the blood pool.
Chen Yang and Xuan Yuanxing were still standing there, motionless.
He made a hand gesture and pointed, and a crystal light flashed on the heads of the two, and several crystal chains shot out.
Chen Yang and the other moved, and immediately recovered.
The two looked around, and saw that the hall was in a mess, more damaged than before, and besides Han Li, all the others were gone, their faces changed.
"Fellow Daoist Li, you... I..." Chen Yang looked at Han Li, a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face, and he stammered.
"The people from Puppet City have already left. If you want to chase them, go ahead." Han Li said lightly, and ignored the two.
With a sway of his body, he turned into a wisp of blue smoke and shot out from the large hole in the wall.
Coming outside, Han Li glanced around, and frowned slightly.
In this Great Ruins Secret Realm, his divine sense could not play much of a role, so he could only carefully probe the remaining fluctuations in the surrounding world to determine where Sha Xin and the others had gone.
However, the time interval was too long, and the traces remaining in the void were already too scattered and sparse. He could only roughly choose a direction, jumped up, and chased after them.
Now he seemed to be full of inexhaustible power, and he was still a little unaccustomed to his every move. He could not freely control his strength, and would always inadvertently cause a burst of explosions.
In a few leaps, his figure had already disappeared into the distance.
Along the way, he still saw large areas of architectural ruins, broken walls, and a scene of devastation.
Han Li was thinking about the black-纱 woman called "Xiao Zi", and he had no time to explore these places, but only pursued relentlessly.
Three days later.
Han Li came to an abandoned garden, with winding corridors and various fake mountains of different sizes, covering a wide area.
As he walked along the garden corridor, he suddenly heard the sound of weapons clashing from the front left, mixed with some rather familiar delicate shouts.
Han Li frowned, suppressed the fluctuations of the Stellar Power, and did not leap up, but carefully sneaked over.
Leaving the garden and walking forward for more than ten miles, after passing through a crowded ruin, he came to a huge sinkhole with a diameter of tens of thousands of feet.
He hid behind a collapsing bluestone screen wall and looked down.
He saw that the sounds of rumbling were constant in the sinkhole.
A white-clothed woman wearing bone armor, holding a white bone whip in one hand and a white bone spear in the other, was flying up and down at the bottom of the sinkhole. With a twist of her wrist, the bone whip moved arbitrarily like a living thing, constantly striking a black-armored man holding a war blade.
Where the whip shadow fell, white light flashed, and there were sounds of thunder, stirring the void.
"Sure enough, it's her..." Han Li muttered to himself.
The white-clothed woman was none other than Gu Qianxun, and the person fighting with her was the First Prince, Shi Zhanfeng.
He had changed into a set of purple demon armor at some point, with a great purple light, using the armor to hard resist Gu Qianxun's long whip, completely withstanding the attacks it brought, and holding a white bone war blade in his hand, constantly approaching Gu Qianxun.
There were three blood holes in Gu Qianxun's abdomen, and the blood had already stained the lower body of her dress with mottled bloodstains, looking like plum blossoms blooming in the snow. It could be seen that she had obviously fallen into a disadvantage, and defeat was only a matter of time.
Han Li shifted his gaze and found a woman's body lying on the ground not far from the two. Her figure was petite and graceful, and there was a blood hole blasted open in her chest. It was the charming woman who had followed Shi Zhanfeng before.
"Clang clang clang!"
Gu Qianxun's long whip wrapped around the long knife in Shi Zhanfeng's hand, and the tip stabbed straight at Shi Zhanfeng's face like a spirit snake spitting out a letter.
Shi Zhanfeng retreated backward, and yanked the long knife violently, and the bone whip on the knife immediately tightened.
"Break!" He let out a violent roar, and the Stellar Aperture light on the long knife shone brightly, and an incomparably tyrannical Stellar Power suddenly erupted.
"Bang bang bang..."
A series of explosions sounded, and the white bone whip burst inch by inch, scattering and exploding.
Gu Qianxun was impacted by the air waves rolled up, and the injuries on her abdomen suddenly worsened, and she staggered back a step.
Shi Zhanfeng had already rushed up with his knife, and slashed down at her with great force.
Gu Qianxun's face was pale, and she held the bone spear horizontally in one hand, blocking upwards, colliding with the war blade.
A huge force was crushed down, the bluestone paved ground shattered, Gu Qianxun's legs below the knees all sank down, and she vomited another mouthful of blood, her face pale and her body trembling.
Shi Zhanfeng picked off her bone spear with a knife, and placed the knife horizontally on her neck, his face fierce and said: "Who instructed you to attack me?"
Gu Qianxun's eyes were a little dazed, she glanced at the corpse in the distance, and felt a little regret in her heart.
If it hadn't been for this woman who sacrificed her life to block that blow for Shi Zhanfeng, she would have had a chance to kill him.
"Kill me if you want, what's the point of asking more questions?" Gu Qianxun took a deep breath and said slowly.
"The Thousand Machine Hall is still waiting for me, I don't have time to dawdle with you here, since you are determined to die, I will fulfill you." Shi Zhanfeng sneered, raised the long knife in his hand, and was about to chop it off at her head.
At this moment, a sound of breaking through the air rang out.
A fireball shot out, hitting Shi Zhanfeng's long knife with a "clang", the force was simply unbelievable, directly staggering him.
Shi Zhanfeng glanced at the mark on the bone knife, and found that it was a stone that had been burned red and melted, and was slowly flowing down the blade.
He hurriedly turned his head and looked into the distance, and saw a tall figure, holding three or four walnut-sized stones in his hand, tossing them up and down, walking slowly towards this side.
"It's you!" After seeing his face clearly, Shi Zhanfeng couldn't help but change his expression and said in surprise.
"Fellow Daoist Li..." Gu Qianxun's expression was complicated, and she murmured.
"Your Highness, long time no see..." Han Li said with a smile on his lips.
Shi Zhanfeng looked at Han Li in front of him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a strange feeling rose in his heart. He always felt that the person in front of him was somewhat different from what he remembered.
"What, is Fellow Daoist Li going to interfere in the private feud between me and her?" Shi Zhanfeng frowned and asked.
"I don't know if she has a private feud with you, but I still have something to talk to her about, please avoid it, Your Highness." Han Li said lightly, his pace did not stop.
"Everything should be done in order! After I deal with the private feud between me and her, you can have a good talk with her." Shi Zhanfeng sneered, turned his wrist again, and the knife momentum became even more fierce, and once again slashed towards the back of Gu Qianxun's head.
Han Li's eyes flashed, and a brilliant white light lit up in his palm. With a rub of his fingers, the ordinary stone in his palm instantly turned fiery red.
With a shake of his wrist, a slight thunder sounded in his palm, followed by a long sound of breaking through the air.
He saw four fiery red gravels fly out, turning into four intertwined fiery red arcs, instantly flying in front of Shi Zhanfeng, two of them directly hitting the war blade in his hand, and the other two flying towards his Dantian and heart respectively.
Shi Zhanfeng was shocked, and suddenly lifted the long knife in his hand, and quickly protected it in front of him.
The two firestones that hit the war blade missed, and the two firestones that hit his body landed on the war blade.
"Clang"
Two explosions sounded, and the white bone knife suddenly shook, hitting Shi Zhanfeng's chest, knocking him back nearly a hundred feet with the knife and all, his legs like plows, drawing two deep ravines on the ground.
After stabilizing his figure, Shi Zhanfeng glanced at the two obvious cracks that appeared on the knife, and his brows furrowed.
"It seems that Fellow Daoist Li has another opportunity in this Great Ruins, which is really enviable! Forget it, forget it, since you are determined to save her, I will give you face." Shi Zhanfeng paused, his expression returned to normal, smiled slightly, and said.
As soon as he finished speaking, the white bone war knife made a "click" sound and broke into two pieces.
He looked calm, threw away the hilt casually, and left a sentence "Mountains are high and rivers are long, we will meet again", his figure leaped up, and disappeared into the horizon.
Han Li let him leave without stopping him, and turned to walk slowly towards Gu Qianxun.
