Wang Yu
Chapter 1262 Desperate Fight
A yellow sword light bloomed from the giant sword, transforming into two streams of sword energy, one above and one below, that shot straight ahead.
In the high sky, a thunderous sound erupted in an instant. The clouds were directly cleaved in two by the upward-surging sword energy, rushing wildly to both sides, leaving a gap spanning thousands of miles in the middle, making it seem as if the entire sky had been cut in half.
At the same time, the other sword energy plunged straight down, splitting the entire Jade Kettle Peak in two, leaving a bottomless ravine in the middle.
Han Li's figure fell into the deepest part of the ravine, plunging straight into the wine cellar beneath the earth.
The immortal wine stored in Jug Mountain for countless years was smashed into countless pieces. Waves of rich aroma of wine mixed together, rising from the ground, making the entire Jade Kettle Peak look even more like a broken wine bottle.
Han Li lay on the ground covered with broken wine jars, his whole body soaked in wine, his arms spread out on the ground.
He struggled to sit up, feeling extremely helpless. With his current strength, he was really unable to contend with existences like Yue Qing. But now, even if he wanted to escape, he was afraid it was just wishful thinking.
He had just tried to call the Bottle Spirit through his mind, but the result was the same as before, still receiving no response.
Just then, a strong sense of oppression suddenly came from the high sky, and a yellow halo almost covered the entire firmament.
Han Li, located at the bottom of the abyss, looked up at the high sky, only to see a huge yellow cloud vortex swirling in the sky, with faint flashes of lightning within, and occasional bursts of suppressed rumbling sounds.
Then, he waved his palm, and thirty-six Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords flew out one after another, surrounding him.
"Rumble..."
A thunderclap exploded from the high sky, as if the entire sky had been torn apart.
A crack suddenly appeared in the yellow cloud vortex swirling high above, and an incomparably thick pillar of yellow light burst out from it, blasting down towards Han Li below.
Han Li gritted his teeth and pinched a sword incantation with both hands. A "clang" sound rang out from outside his body, and the thirty-six Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords immediately surrounded him like close-fitting guards.
"Condense!"
As he uttered a low shout, all the Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords shone brightly, and countless golden electric threads leaped out wildly, condensing into a huge golden dragon, rushing straight towards the high sky.
Han Li, located inside the golden dragon, was surrounded by sword light and sword energy, and crashed directly into the yellow light pillar.
"Rumble..."
A series of continuous earth-shattering roars sounded. The yellow light pillar was struck by the golden dragon, and its light collapsed and continued to annihilate.
Han Li's figure also continued to rise, rushing out of the deep ravine cleaved open in Jade Kettle Peak, and returned to the high sky.
He looked up and saw Yue Qing, resting on the giant sword above a yellow cloud, looking down at himself like a god suppressing the heavens, his eyes full of indifference.
On the other side, Jin Tong had already revealed the huge true form of the golden beetle, but was trapped in the center by Wu Hui with thousands of silver threads from a horsetail whisk, and it seemed that he would not be able to escape for a while.
Xiao Bai, on the other hand, seemed to have finally adapted to the power of his bloodline, and was becoming more and more fierce in battle. He opened his mouth and swallowed the violent wind blade that Po Feng had slashed out with a celestial weapon.
After turning around, he spat it out again, returning the wind blade intact.
The two of them seemed to be safe for the time being, but Han Li himself was in the worst situation.
This Yue Qing was a late Da Luo cultivator, an existence who had severed two corpses. With Han Li's current realm of cultivation, he was still too far behind him.
Han Li hesitated for a moment, then sighed inwardly. Even if he could summon the Bottle Spirit for time-space travel at this moment, he could not just abandon Jin Tong and Xiao Bai and leave by himself.
Since there was no escape and no avoidance, he had no choice but to fight to the death.
He narrowed his eyes, snapped his fingers casually, and the power of the Law of Time within his body surged out.
Correspondingly, the surrounding void spirit domain also changed in an instant.
On the originally broken Jade Kettle Peak, a verdant mountain range with undulating mountains appeared out of thin air, with lush forests and vibrant life. A jade-like river flowed through it, winding for thousands of miles.
Yue Qing stood on the cloud head, watching this scene, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"You have not cultivated for a long time, reaching the early stage of Da Luo is already rare. You even have the aura of the Celestial Realm in your spirit domain?" Yue Qing frowned and couldn't help but ask.
It was no wonder he was surprised. After all, cultivation and refining the spirit domain both took time and effort, but it was not easy to achieve results. Being able to take care of both like Han Li, without delaying each other, was rare throughout the entire True Immortal Realm.
Just then, in the sea of clouds behind him, a piece of snow-white silver light lit up like the rising of a bright moon. The Treasure Wheel of Truth, fused with the Juntian Sundial, emerged and hovered motionless.
The silver light emitted from it instantly submerged Yue Qing's entire figure.
In an instant, the surrounding void seemed to be frozen. Even Yue Qing's cultivation felt a bit suffocated, as if the surrounding air was no longer flowing.
"Careless..." As the thought arose in his mind, he realized that his thoughts seemed to be slowing down.
He quickly guarded his divine consciousness, secretly operated the cultivation technique, and a ball of earthy yellow halo lit up in front of his chest. The scales on his body shone even more brightly, emitting a strong force of law, colliding fiercely with the surrounding silver light.
For a while, although it was not enough to escape, it at least prevented his thoughts from being hindered.
Taking this opportunity, Han Li pinched a magic formula with both hands, tapped the void with the tip of his foot, and a torrent of sword energy condensed from ten thousand swords formed beneath his feet, carrying him into the high sky, facing Yue Qing from afar.
After standing still in the air, Han Li changed the magic formula in his hand again, and a sonorous sound immediately rang out in the void. The thirty-six Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords below immediately flew apart, and landed outside his body like arranged troops.
"Zi la la"
Along with a burst of electric light, all the sword tips pointed directly at the sky, and thirty-six incomparably thick golden thunder pillars surged out from the sword body, heading straight into the depths of the nine heavens.
The golden thunder pillars merged into the sea of clouds beneath Han Li, and it was as if clear water had been dripped into a hot oil pan. The entire sea of clouds immediately boiled, and the rolling clouds surged up and down, with lightning flashing inside, as if thunder dragons were rolling.
Outside Han Li's body, the wind and clouds in the sky changed abruptly. Countless clouds of air were born out of thin air and gathered around him, turning into a huge golden thundercloud, dividing the sky with the yellow cloud outside Yue Qing, each occupying half of the sky.
In the golden thundercloud, layers of cloud qi rippled open, and two huge golden pillars hidden in the void emerged, with two golden doors, half-hidden in the rolling clouds, condensed in the middle.
Han Li, located outside the golden gate, was bathed in golden thunder light, his hands still maintaining the posture of pinching the sword formula, looking like a golden armored god guarding the heavenly gate.
"Open."
He only heard a loud shout from his mouth, and his hands suddenly closed in front of him, gathering high above his head.
Along with a "boom" sound, the golden gate behind him, which had been tightly closed, suddenly trembled, opening a gap inward, revealing a vast and boundless golden sea of thunder, with brilliant golden light undulating like a tide.
Unlike the last time, when the heavenly gate suddenly opened and the thunder liquid surged wildly, this time there was no amazing vision of thunder and lightning hanging down. Only clusters of golden lightning orbs the size of fists condensed from the sea.
One after another, the golden thunderballs floated out from the gap in the golden heavenly gate, not directly smashing towards Yue Qing, but flying into Han Li's folded palms and disappearing.
Soon, seven or eight thunderballs flew into his palms, and an irresistible aura of thunder and lightning began to overflow from them.
As more and more golden thunderballs entered his hands, golden light began to penetrate from Han Li's palms, but his brows became tighter and tighter, and an increasingly painful expression appeared on his face.
"This Heaven-Reaching Sword Formation... is a bit strange." Yue Qing naturally recognized Han Li's sword formation at a glance, but watching this scene, a hint of doubt still flashed in his eyes.
In the next moment, a strange feeling arose in his heart, and he let out an angry shout, and golden seal characters suddenly appeared on the scales all over his body, rushing out towards the outside, forcing the silver light back a lot.
Then, he grasped the sword hilt with both hands and slowly lifted it up.
Under the influence of the power of the Law of Time, Yue Qing still stepped forward, holding the sword with both hands in a bow stance, facing Han Li.
The huge broad sword was dragged by his side, the runes on the sword body lit up, and seven mountain peaks appeared on it one after another, with clouds and mist swirling around them, looking just like real ones.
At the same time, the aura on his body began to become extremely calm, and the yellow cloud shrouded outside him also began to shrink rapidly, condensing into an earthy yellow cloud mountain shadow behind him.
A critical strike was ready to be launched.
Golden light flashed in Han Li's eyes, and there was only an indifferent look in his eyes.
Finally, he suddenly turned his folded hands into a void grip, and the golden thunder light that had been suppressed in his palms for a long time was finally released, turning into a golden thunder long sword that extended from his hands.
"Chop!"
Han Li let out a long roar, and his arms suddenly swung around, slashing down hard.
As the golden thunder sword slashed down, the thunder light on the sword body was at its peak, instantly turning into a huge sword shadow thousands of feet long, directly tearing through the void, and falling towards Yue Qing's head.
The moment he made his move, Yue Qing swung the giant sword in his hand upwards in a wild fire sweeping the sky posture.
"Boom boom boom..."
In the void, a roar erupted, and one after another, huge mountain shadows that were as real as they could be emerged out of thin air, colliding with the golden sword shadow.
With a loud "boom", the first mountain shadow shattered without any resistance.
Then, the second mountain shadow was like the first, with rocks splashing and exploding.
Immediately afterwards, the third and fourth mountain peaks also shattered one after another, turning into dust.
A gully thousands of feet long split from the center of the fifth mountain shadow, like the previous Jade Kettle Peak, and was dissected into two halves, while the sixth mountain shadow connected to it was only cut open at the top of the mountain, and firmly blocked the golden sword shadow.
As for the seventh mountain shadow, it rushed straight up and, in a burst of sound, scattered the golden sword shadow's golden light with a direct impact, shattering it.
