Chapter 1048 True Face

Only to see Lan Yan holding a weapon resembling a long-handled curved scythe. The top of the scythe was inlaid with three water-blue crystals, constantly flashing with a clear light.

The man standing back-to-back with her held a slender long sword, also inlaid with three water-blue crystals, constantly rippling with layers of water-blue light waves as he swung it.

The two worked together, calmly dealing with two metal beasts shaped like fierce lions.

"These metal beasts are of a high grade. The beast cores inside must contain the power of metal-based Laws. Why don't we kill a few more?" Lan Yan said with a smile, her body constantly flowing with water waves.

"Compared to that treasure in the Tower of Time, what's so important about these metal beasts? We should find a way out as soon as possible. Wasting time here is meaningless," Lan Yuanzi shook his head and said.

"That's fine too. Killing so many metal beasts is really troublesome. Let's go deeper and take a look," Lan Yan said with some excitement.

"Don't be too careless. These ghostly things have strong attack power. It won't be good if you get hurt by them," Lan Yuanzi said, obviously more cautious.

As they spoke, the two ferocious lion metal beasts roared and charged again.

Lan Yan lightly tapped the ground with the tip of her toes, and her whole body floated up into the air.

She raised one hand and pointed into the void. A piece of bright blue light rippled from her fingertip, condensing into a shimmering water-blue light curtain.

On the light curtain, circles of ring-shaped runes emerged, emitting a rich water-based aura.

The ferocious lion pouncing at her crashed into the light curtain with a deafening roar.

The water-blue light curtain was like being assaulted by heavy rain, its surface stirring up countless blue droplets, but it remained firm and unyielding, firmly resisting the fierce lion metal beast, preventing it from advancing an inch.

Almost simultaneously, the blue curved scythe in Lan Yan's other hand drew a blue arc in mid-air, like a blue crescent moon reflecting out.

Accompanied by a sharp whistle, the water-blue light curtain that Lan Yan had opened split apart. The fierce lion beast behind it was cleaved in two by the crescent moon, cut directly in half.

On the other side, Lan Yuanzi was even more direct, without any defensive actions. Instead, he shot straight up, and the water-blue slender sword in his hand rolled, and a spiral of water light rotated out from the sword, like a sharp spear piercing towards the brow of the fierce lion.

With a soft "poof" sound!

The head of the beast formed from the power of metal, which should have been extremely hard, was directly pierced by the water light surging from the long sword in his hand, blasting open a huge gap.

Yu Kuohai, who was fleeing in a panic, was even more horrified to see this scene.

It turned out that he wasn't the only one like "Stone Fellow Daoist" who was pretending. In the future, when he encountered those unassuming guys, he would never dare to be so arrogant again.

Just then, he noticed that "Stone Fellow Daoist" suddenly glanced at him, and he immediately felt his whole heart jump to his throat. Fortunately, he only glanced at him once and then moved his gaze away, without any other action.

Even so, Yu Kuohai, feeling uneasy, subconsciously moved away from the three of them and fled to the other side, fearing that he would be slapped to death on the spot if they didn't like him.

Han Li didn't have time to argue with him at the moment. The reason he looked over there was because his divine sense sensed that there seemed to be an even more powerful metal beast approaching.

He turned his gaze back to the Lan siblings, frowned, and found that the two figures had disappeared.

Just as Han Li was wondering, a sharp cry suddenly came from above his head. The golden eagle that had attacked him before, after killing Elder Yang, had actually set its sights on him again.

"Noisy!"

Han Li frowned, slightly turned his body, raised a fist, and smashed it upwards.

The golden eagle, which had been circling for a long time, had just landed when its two steel claws were hit by Han Li, directly exploding into a dazzling golden light.

With a loud "boom"!

The golden eagle's steel claws were impacted by a surging star giant force, and they exploded directly.

Its tattered body also flew to the side, and a metal beast resembling a Qilin, which was coming to meet it, opened its mouth and sucked it directly into its belly.

The Qilin roared to the sky, golden light flashing on its back, and two golden wings grew out from it.

Han Li was slightly surprised when he saw the appearance of this beast. The powerful aura he had just sensed seemed to be from this beast.

The Qilin metal beast ran wildly on all fours, charging straight towards Han Li.

Its bloody mouth opened wide, and a mass of golden molten liquid spewed out, pouring down on his head.

Han Li turned his wrist, and the Azure Bamboo Cloud-Flying Swords appeared. He grabbed them and swung them out with the momentum of setting a prairie fire.

"Zizzzz..."

The golden electric light and cyan sword energy on the Azure Bamboo Cloud-Flying Swords were mixed together, turning into a cyan sword curtain entangled with electric light, surging upwards wildly.

As soon as the two sides came into contact, a large amount of golden lightning merged with the golden molten liquid.

It could be seen that there were sharp auras in the golden molten liquid, and in a few breaths, it had cut through the golden lightning, turning it into slender electric rays as thin as hair.

However, most of the power of the golden molten liquid was also consumed by the lightning, and then it was torn apart by the cyan sword energy.

Han Li flew up from the opening torn apart by the sword energy and pounced on the Qilin metal beast.

Seeing this, the latter flapped its newly grown wings with all its might, and golden winds blew out from under its wings, like golden blades, directly cutting the void to pieces.

Han Li's path was blocked by the golden wind, and a "bang" sounded under his feet.

He stepped on the void, and his figure rose step by step, crossing the golden wind area and coming to the top of the Qilin's head. He suddenly raised a fist and slammed it downwards.

"Boom boom boom..."

There was a violent tremor in the void. A powerful force of oppression was generated from the tip of Han Li's fist, forcibly pressing down the golden light that permeated the surrounding void, and punched the top of the Qilin's head.

With a loud "boom"!

The Qilin's huge body couldn't support it any longer, and its four hooves splayed, and it fell directly to the ground.

Its huge head, although not yet cracked, was swaying non-stop, appearing somewhat uncontrollable.

Han Li landed on its head, his face showing a look of hesitation.

After a moment, he raised two fingers and pointed at his brow, and then pulled it outwards.

A white crystal thread as thin as hair was slowly drawn out from it, like a floating spirit snake winding around his fingertips.

"Go!"

Han Li pointed with his fingers, and the white crystal thread shot out, hitting the head of the Qilin metal beast and disappearing into it.

After the crystal thread disappeared, the Qilin's head, which had been shaking, completely drooped down, as if it had fallen asleep.

A flash of light appeared on Han Li's right hand, and a huge silver light gate appeared in front of the Qilin.

"Go in, and take good care of the house for me in the future." After saying that, Han Li's figure flashed backwards, and he kicked the Qilin's butt. The behemoth was kicked into the light gate by him.

Then, he closed the Flower Branch Cave Heaven, turned his gaze, and looked towards a direction in the depths.

There, a piece of water-blue light curtain rippled from the golden light, and a pair of handsome men and women, like a pair of immortals, were walking out of it side by side.

Han Li took a closer look, and it was the Lan siblings.

"This is a genuine Cave Heaven treasure. No wonder it can plunder such a large secret realm. But even doing things like scraping the ground, Fellow Daoist Han Li, isn't your eating a bit too ugly?" Lan Yan covered her mouth and smiled.

"When did you discover my identity?" Han Li frowned slightly and asked.

"Fellow Daoist Han Li has been carefully spying on our siblings, how could we not notice you?" Lan Yuanzi said lightly.

"The Lan siblings...you?" Han Li looked at the two's affectionate appearance and couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Lan Yan's expression became slightly unnatural, and she said angrily:

"My brother and I are fellow disciples. We were picked up by our master earlier and brought back to the mountain. That's why we followed our master's surname. Only rude people like you would have such filthy thoughts."

Lan Yuanzi's expression was natural and there was nothing unusual about it.

"What you are is none of my business. I thought that if you could avoid causing trouble, you could avoid a fight. Now it seems...that's not possible?" Han Li turned his gaze and said.

"It's also possible to avoid fighting. Fellow Daoist Han Li, just surrender and be captured. After this secret realm treasure hunt is over, return to the Nine Yuan Sect with us and listen to the Old Ancestor's orders," Lan Yuanzi chuckled and said.

"Why do people from your Nine Yuan Sect like to make such jokes? The last person who said this was called Dongfang Bai. I don't know if you know him?" Han Li smiled helplessly and asked leisurely.

"You..." Lan Yan was furious when she heard this.

She hooked the scythe in her hand and wanted to kill Han Li, but Lan Yuanzi reached out and stopped her.

"Don't be angered by him. This person can kill the Immortal Palace and kill Dongfang Bai. He must not be a simple character. Even you and I must be careful to deal with him," Lan Yuanzi advised.

Lan Yan's expression eased slightly when she heard this. She looked directly at Han Li, and the long-handled curved scythe in her hand was raised slightly, and she changed to holding it tightly with both hands.

"Since Fellow Daoist Han Li insists on fighting before we can see the outcome, then let's see the truth under our hands," Lan Yuanzi said with a solemn expression, pointing the long sword in his hand and gently swiping it in front of him.

After saying that, a light lit up on his body, and a water-blue spherical light curtain expanded, covering the surrounding area of ​​hundreds of feet.

Han Li frowned slightly, and found that the power of the metal attribute that permeated the surrounding void seemed to have become much thinner, and those metal beasts seemed to have been driven away by this spirit domain, and they all moved away from here.

As for those cultivators from Wangyou Pavilion and Lingxiao Sect, they had already suffered heavy casualties, with very few left.

"Your spirit domain is a bit special. It has only spread out and has not seen any killing power, but it can force back those metal beasts," Han Li said in amazement.
