Wang Yu
Chapter 1248 Wild Escape
"Of course... when I was imprisoned in Ghost Valley, I was brought here once by those people, and I even went to see a gray-robed old man," Jin Tong hurriedly said with certainty.
"What gray-robed old man?" Han Li asked with some puzzlement.
"I don't know him, but he seems to have a very high status in the Nine Yuan Temple. Even Gui Lingzi had to bow and show respect when he saw him. But this old man wasn't bad, he was kind and amiable, and he even instructed Gui Lingzi to treat me well. However, the old man then went into seclusion and didn't care about anything else, and I never saw him again," Jin Tong said, seemingly having a good impression of that person.
"Do you really know the way?" Han Li asked with some skepticism.
"I say, uncle, you don't even believe what this fairy says, who else can you believe?" Jin Tong puffed out her cheeks, dissatisfied.
As a result, before Han Li could say anything, Xiao Bai said very distrustfully, "Boss, do you really know the way? Before, when I was following you, it was because you took the wrong way that we were blocked by that Gui Lingzi, and we couldn't escape in the end. And before that, you brought me..."
"What did you say?" Facing Xiao Bai's exposure, Jin Tong directly raised her fist and gave him a chestnut, asking with a glare.
"Ouch, nothing, nothing, I'll listen to you, boss..." Xiao Bai immediately rubbed his head and said repeatedly.
"Since Fellow Daoist Lan also doesn't know the way, let Jin Tong lead the way. Let's sneak along the way, and if we encounter people from the Nine Yuan Temple, remember not to get entangled, and focus on escaping as quickly as possible," Han Li said after pondering for a moment.
"You just watch, following this fairy, there will definitely be no problem," Jin Tong said with a hearty laugh, full of confidence.
Having said that, she looked around, raised a palm, and waved it in one direction, saying:
"Come, let's go this way, let's go!"
So Han Li and the others followed behind Jin Tong, bypassing the rockery from the right and walking into a dense forest.
Within the Nine Yuan Palace, the distribution of buildings was not too much, and there were not many majestic high-rise buildings, but the distribution of each pavilion and building was very methodical, connected to each other by winding corridors, with exquisite gardens interspersed in the middle.
Han Li and others successively passed through three gardens, and did not encounter a single Nine Yuan Temple cultivator along the way.
When they came out of the third garden, they saw a vast, misty lake in front of them, filled with spiritual energy.
Across the entire lake, although they could not see it, they could also hear faint rumbling explosions and shouts of killing coming from the opposite shore. There seemed to be a fierce battle going on there.
Han Li looked up at the sky above his head, and saw a layer of golden barrier light covering it above the clouds, shaking slightly with each violent explosion.
"What's wrong, Fellow Daoist Han?" Seeing him like this, Lan Yan's expression became a little nervous, and she hurriedly asked.
"Did the boss take the wrong way?" Xiao Bai also hurriedly asked.
"Looking to die, aren't you!" Jin Tong didn't say a word and slapped Xiao Bai on the head, who quickly lowered his head.
"The way is not wrong. Hearing the sounds of killing on the opposite shore of the lake indicates that it is the battle area between the Samsara Hall and the Nine Yuan Temple. It should be far away from the center of the Nine Yuan Palace, so our direction is at least not wrong," Han Li said slowly.
"See, didn't this fairy say it wouldn't be wrong?" Jin Tong's face suddenly showed a smug smile when she heard this, and she said.
"Master, speaking of which, it may not be right. What if the Samsara Hall's offensive is too strong and has already reached the core area of the Nine Yuan Palace? Aren't we heading towards the center of the war?" Xiao Bai suddenly thought of something and raised his head to say.
"I think your skin is itching, you're just arguing with me today," Jin Tong immediately frowned and scolded angrily.
Xiao Bai quickly shrank his neck and begged for mercy.
"No, although the Samsara Hall is well prepared this time, it is impossible to attack so quickly. Moreover, you see, the barrier restrictions above the Nine Yuan Palace have not been broken, so the area of the battle is unlikely to be in the core position," Han Li shook his head and said.
"Fellow Daoist Han is right, and the Nine Yuan Palace is the most important place in our temple. If it were really breached, the commotion would definitely not be as small as it is now," Lan Yan thought for a while and also echoed.
"Let's go. After flying over this lake, let's find a place where there are no monks fighting on both sides, find a way out of the barrier, and then we can use the Thunder Formation Technique to find a way to leave the Nine Yuan Temple as soon as possible," Han Li said.
After that, the few people lit up their escape lights one after another and flew towards the opposite shore of the lake.
In order not to attract the attention of others, Han Li and others did not fly into the high altitude, but controlled their breath fluctuations and flew almost close to the surface of the water, leaving only four shallow marks on the water surface, rippling layers of faint ripples.
The richness of the world's spiritual energy above the lake was simply no less than a high-level spiritual gathering formation. The water mist condensed on the lake was actually all tiny liquid water droplets crystallized from spiritual power.
When Han Li and others passed through it, they didn't need to activate their magic power to absorb these spiritual liquid droplets, and they could feel strands of world spiritual energy condensing towards them.
The feeling was like soaking in hot spring water, with an unspeakable comfort all over the body.
Even the fatigue brought by the previous few consecutive battles was dispelled by this lake's misty aura.
Just as he was feeling a little relaxed by this sense of comfort, a familiar voice suddenly came from the mist ahead:
"Who are you?"
As the voice fell, a green shadow suddenly flashed through the hazy mist ahead.
Immediately afterwards, the mist in the surrounding void suddenly solidified, and a series of "crackling" sounds came from it. The entire lake was instantly dyed with a layer of white frost, directly freezing into a thick layer of solid ice.
"Myofa Immortal..." Han Li frowned and said somewhat helplessly.
In the void ahead, the frozen mist retreated to both sides, revealing a beautiful woman in a green dress. Her appearance was absolutely flawless, but it was a pity that the mountains and peaks on her chest did not rise and fall much.
When Lan Yan saw this person, she hurriedly lowered her head, and her expression became both fearful and guilty.
Myofa Immortal's gaze swept over Han Li and others, and the color of shock became stronger and stronger.
"Han Li, you are really audacious, daring to kidnap my Nine Yuan Temple disciples, trespass on the forbidden area of the Nine Yuan Palace, and privately release the Gold Devouring Immortal?" Myofa Immortal saw Lan Yan, her gaze flashed slightly, and she rebuked Han Li.
Lan Yan's beautiful eyes flashed, and she couldn't help but laugh a little. This Myofa Immortal actually mistakenly thought that Han Li had kidnapped her.
"This Gold Devouring Immortal was originally my spiritual pet. Today, I came here using the convenience of the Samsara Hall, but only to take back what originally belonged to me. Since the purpose has been achieved, I don't want to continue to stay in your Nine Yuan Temple. Fellow Daoist Myofa might as well do me a favor and let us leave, so you can go and deal with those guys from the Samsara Hall sooner. It looks like they are about to break through the barrier," Han Li grinned and said.
Hearing this, Myofa Immortal glanced imperceptibly at the increasingly frequent shaking barrier in the high sky, and her expression became a little dignified.
In the next moment, suddenly, she suddenly shot out a palm towards Han Li.
The cold air in the void flourished, Han Li's eyes flashed, and he saw that outside his body, six somewhat familiar crystal lights suddenly lit up, and something seemed to be covering over the top of his head.
The law of time in his body instantly circulated, and with a wave of his sleeves, he pulled Jin Tong, Xiao Bai, and Lan Yan back at the same time, retreating violently, instantly pulling away a hundred feet.
In the place where they were standing before, a huge hexagonal snowflake ice crystal was covering over the top, with blue crystal light flashing on it, refracting six blue halos from it.
Those six halos turned into six familiar white crystal walls around them, but because Han Li reacted in time, they fell into the air.
"So fast..."
Myofa Immortal's expression changed slightly, and she noticed that Han Li's aura was no longer comparable to what it was back then.
"Han is not planning to fall for the same trick again. Since you and I both have things to be busy with, I will take my leave first," Han Li had no intention of fighting with her. After saying a word, he used the power of the law of time to the extreme, and his figure disappeared from the spot in a blur.
However, just like the first time he saw Myofa Immortal, the other party had already sealed off the small lake with a circle of tall ice crystal walls.
So Han Li almost flew out a hundred feet when he encountered an ice wall head-on.
"Leave it to this fairy..."
Jin Tong shouted loudly and flew out first, bathed in golden light, as if she had been poured with a layer of gold juice, directly hitting the ice wall.
With a "boom", there was a loud bang!
The entire ice crystal city wall shook violently. The center of the ice wall collapsed with a bang, and a circle of circular cracks spread instantly to the entire city wall with Jin Tong's impact point as the center.
The ice crystal city wall was not knocked out of a big hole, but collapsed as a whole in a burst of rumbling sounds.
The figures of Han Li and others passed through the sky full of raised ice crystal powder and flew towards another direction.
"Stop!" Myofa Immortal shouted sharply, and her figure quickly chased after her.
A huge hexagonal snowflake-shaped thin ice crystal appeared under her feet, and it quickly划过through the void, its speed was extremely fast, chasing after Han Li.
Han Li had already opened up the Time Domain, but he controlled it within a range of a dozen feet outside his body, just enough to wrap them in it, and used the blessing of the power of the law of time to ensure their overall rapid movement.
"Why are we running away? If you ask me, wouldn't it be better to just kill her?" Jin Tong asked, puzzled.
"A Middle Stage Grand Luo Realm cultivator is not someone you can kill just by saying so. Once we are entangled by her, the fluctuations of the battle will attract others, and it will be even more troublesome," Han Li said.
"Then what do we do now? It's not a solution to be chased by her like this, is it?" Jin Tong frowned and asked.
"Let's get rid of her first, then we'll talk. Get ready," Han Li said with an unchanged expression.
Jin Tong and Xiao Bai said "um" in unison, but Lan Yan was a little confused, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes.
In the next moment, lightning suddenly flashed around them, and silver thunder pillars were born out of thin air, and strands of silver electric silk intertwined to form a silver thunder formation.
With a rumbling sound, the silver thunder formation flashed violently, and the figures of Han Li and others disappeared from the spot.
