Chapter 1023 The Tree Falls, the Monkeys Scatter

"You all fall back for me!" Dongfang Bai shouted while making a move.

Upon hearing this, the five Grand Luo elders exchanged glances and immediately led the others to fly further inside.

Han Li ignored the others, and the sword incantation in his hand suddenly changed.

The golden lightning on the surface of the fifty or sixty flying swords surged, and sword Qi appeared out of thin air, densely packed. Half of the sky was filled with a chilling light, and the void trembled violently wherever it passed, becoming blurred.

The power of the sword Qi this time was far greater than before. Not only did the ribbons around the green python fail to entangle the flying swords, but they were instead shattered and cut off in a series of tearing sounds.

The dozen or so green pythons were also caught in the sword Qi and cut into several pieces.

"Explode!"

Dongfang Bai's pupils shrank slightly, and he pinched a magic formula in his hand, shouting loudly.

Bang bang bang!

The remains of the green pythons suddenly swelled and then exploded, turning into rounds of green scorching suns, sweeping across half of the sky and stirring up a monstrous hurricane that swept in all directions.

The void vibrated, and the sky full of sword light was also affected by the explosion, becoming chaotic for a while.

Taking advantage of this gap, Dongfang Bai suddenly turned around. A green gale rose from his body, enveloping him in a green cloud. He flew towards the depths of the Immortal Palace, retreating immediately after a brief exchange, with unknown plans.

Seeing this, Han Li was surprised, then his eyes narrowed sharply, golden lightning surging on his body, while silently circulating the Reversal Mantra within him.

With a loud thunderous sound, his figure disappeared without a trace, and the next moment appeared out of thin air in front of Dongfang Bai.

His disappearance and reappearance were indescribably fast, startling Dongfang Bai slightly.

Before Dongfang Bai could make any move, Han Li immediately activated the Reversal Mantra treasure wheel, and countless golden ripples emanated from his body, covering Dongfang Bai's body with lightning speed.

This series of actions was as smooth as flowing water, completed in the blink of an eye.

Dongfang Bai's body tightened, and his entire being, along with the green light around him, was frozen in mid-air, like a fly in amber.

A sharp killing intent flashed in Han Li's eyes, and he raised his hand and pointed a finger.

A dazzling golden light shot out from his hand, piercing through Dongfang Bai's lower abdomen with a "poof," creating a large bloody hole.

But after the strike, Han Li's expression changed drastically, and he immediately pinched a magic formula to retract the golden ripples.

A layer of white light immediately appeared on Dongfang Bai's corpse, quickly turning into a white puppet.

The puppet seemed to be made of some kind of white beast bone, covered with talismans, flashing with many white patterns, forming human-shaped patterns of various sizes, which looked extraordinarily mysterious.

"Substitute puppet?" Han Li's expression was unsightly.

He had seen records of this white puppet in the Crab Taoist's collection. It was said to be a peculiar puppet created by a powerful figure in the Celestial Court. He could inject his own Immortal Spiritual Power and Law Power into the puppet, which could then transform into a substitute identical to the original, with no flaws discernible in terms of appearance or aura.

The Crab Taoist had once wanted to obtain a substitute puppet for research purposes, but had never succeeded. He never expected to encounter one here.

At that moment, countless green lights appeared out of thin air, condensing into a green spirit domain, shrouding Han Li's body.

Sturdy branches of unknown origin grew out of thin air, taking root in his body and rapidly devouring the Immortal Spiritual Power within him.

At the same time, a flash of golden light appeared in the mid-air above Han Li's head, and a huge golden mountain appeared out of thin air, occupying nearly half of the sky. Huge runes were engraved everywhere on the mountain, seeming to be an immortal artifact, smashing fiercely towards Han Li with the power to destroy everything.

On the mountain, many figures were sitting cross-legged, precisely Dongfang Bai, the five Grand Luo elders, and those Golden Immortal cultivators. Everyone was solemnly pinching magic formulas in their hands, jointly urging the golden mountain.

Before the golden mountain fell, an indescribable force of gravity permeated from it.

With a deafening roar, the golden mountain crashed to the ground. The ground within a radius of tens of thousands of miles trembled violently, and the entire Jinyuan Immortal Palace, along with the surrounding mountains, sank three feet into the ground!

Seeing this, Dongfang Bai finally revealed a trace of a smile on his face.

This Sumeru Golden Mountain was refined by him at great cost, spending countless years collecting golden essence stones from the Jinyuan Mountains. He knew best about its power.

It was a pity that the Sumeru Golden Mountain was too huge and heavy, and individual Immortal Spiritual Power could not activate it at all. It could only rely on the formations here in the Jinyuan Immortal Palace to activate it, so he did not carry it with him last time. Otherwise, how could he have been defeated by Han Li?

The other cultivators, including the five Grand Luo elders, also breathed a sigh of relief, with expressions of excitement on their faces.

Being able to work together with the Palace Lord to drive this exotic treasure and overcome a powerful enemy was a rare experience.

But the next moment, the smile on Dongfang Bai's face suddenly froze, and the others also choked.

Everyone's eyes fell on the golden peak that was over a thousand feet high, and many people showed an incredible expression, as if they had seen a ghost in broad daylight.

They saw that the golden peak, which was originally as solid as a rock, began to rumble and shake, gradually floating upwards, as if someone was lifting it up from below.

Soon, they discovered what was happening.

Beneath the huge mountain, a giant demon with three heads and six arms stood upright. It was Han Li in the form of the Celestial Fiend Suppressing Prison Art.

Two thick arms supported the golden mountain, as if holding an ordinary stone.

"How is it possible to lift this Sumeru Golden Mountain with just physical strength!" Dongfang Bai exclaimed in horror, but the next moment his voice stopped abruptly.

Golden light surrounded the demon transformed by Han Li, and the trees that had taken root on him had disappeared without a trace.

A small golden tree was suspended in front of the demon, precisely the Eastern Yi Divine Wood that he had painstakingly condensed, emitting dazzling golden light.

When the green plants in the nearby spirit domain touched these golden lights, they immediately turned into streams of vitality, merging into the Eastern Yi Divine Wood like returning to their ancestors, and then transmitted to Han Li's body.

The Immortal Spiritual Power he had previously absorbed was quickly restored.

And the green spirit domain became visibly dim and thin at a rapid pace.

"This is impossible, my Wood God Spirit Domain is a system of its own, it should be constantly regenerating, how can it be devoured..." Dongfang Bai showed a look of horror, just as he was about to do something, the demon transformed by Han Li had already taken the lead.

The demon suddenly raised the remaining four arms into the air, a layer of silver lines appearing on the fists, each illusioning out a dozen silver rune arrays.

With a "boom," a cluster of dazzling golden light erupted from the four huge fists, and under the simultaneous roar of the demon's three heads, they slammed wildly into the Sumeru Golden Mountain in the high sky.

A deafening roar exploded, even louder than the movement when the Sumeru Golden Mountain landed just now.

The golden mountain flew forward, knocking down more than a dozen peaks in a row before stopping.

Most of the people above had been shaken off in the collision just now. Only a few powerful people barely remained, but they were also full of horror and could hardly speak.

Dongfang Bai felt a chill, and cold sweat poured down. At this moment, he immediately pinched a magic formula to retract the spirit domain, and his figure suddenly turned into a green light, heading towards the depths of the Immortal Palace with extreme speed.

"Stop!" The demon transformed by Han Li shot out, chasing after Dongfang Bai.

At this moment, a piece of dark cloud covering the sky suddenly rolled over from the side, blocking Han Li's path. Amidst the rolling black clouds, the figures of the five Grand Luo elders appeared.

The five each held their previous black flags, and under their vigorous shaking, the coverage of the black clouds expanded rapidly, enveloping Han Li's figure. Then, eight hideous black dragon claws the size of houses shot out from within, grabbing towards Han Li.

The aura emitted by the eight dragon claws was completely different from before. There was no longer the feeling of corrosion from before, but an indestructible penetrating force erupted, as if even the sky could be torn out of a hole.

Although the five of them blocked Han Li, they were secretly complaining in their hearts.

Although the exchange just now seemed brief, it gave them a deep understanding of Han Li's strength. However, they were elders of the Jinyuan Immortal Palace, and they had to obey the Palace Lord's orders, otherwise it would be a great crime of disobedience.

Now, they could only hope to rely on this set of Five Dragons Heavenly Flags to resist Han Li slightly, and then plan for the future.

"Courting death!" Han Li snorted coldly and flicked his sleeve.

Seventy-two Azure Bamboo Cloud-Piercing Swords surged out from his sleeve. After a sizzle, they changed abruptly, turning into seventy-two electric arc-like sword lights, bursting out with extremely strong lightning Law fluctuations, slashing on the black dragon claws.

With a "chi la" sound, the seemingly indestructible black dragon claws were as fragile as paper paste, and were easily cut through by the electric arc sword light.

Within the black clouds, a crack appeared on the black flags in the hands of the five people, and the light greatly diminished.

The five people were shocked and hurriedly urged the black clouds to retreat.

But the seventy-two electric arc sword lights were extremely fast, catching up with the black clouds in a flash or two, and slashing down wildly.

The five Grand Luo elders roared in shock and anger. The black clouds rolled violently, facing the electric arc sword light. The five people flashed with treasure light around them, each sacrificing protective treasures.

But as soon as the two sides came into contact, the black clouds seemed to encounter fire in the snow, quickly collapsing and dissolving in the sizzling electric light.

And the protective treasures around the five people did not show any power at all, and were easily destroyed by the electric arc sword light and burst open.

The five Grand Luo elders were terrified, and finally realized the gap in strength between Han Li and them, like a chasm. They were about to use the shrinking secret technique from before to escape.

But with a flash of golden light, an electric arc golden light appeared out of thin air at the necks of the five people, and a sharp sword intent enveloped them. The five people felt as if they had fallen into an bottomless abyss, their hearts were ice-cold, and the circulation of Immortal Spiritual Power also stagnated. They immediately dared not move.

The Golden Immortal cultivators around saw Dongfang Bai fleeing, and many of them had lost all fighting spirit, fleeing in all directions. Most of those who remained were the direct subordinates of the five Grand Luo elders.

These people were originally about to follow the five elders and continue to pounce on Han Li. Seeing this scene, they stopped in fright.

Then, someone exclaimed, and after a commotion on the scene, the others changed from the original encirclement to fleeing in all directions with a bang, a scene of the tree falling and the monkeys scattering.
