Wang Yu
Chapter 1274 ? Out of Control
The Evil Corpse and Han Li locked eyes, neither speaking, but instead charging fiercely towards each other.
As their figures hurtled forward, the divided sea of consciousness descended into a state of utter frenzy, surging violently towards each other.
A deafening "Boom!" echoed.
Han Li and the Evil Corpse abandoned all fancy moves, one throwing a punch, the other using a palm, colliding in what appeared to be an unremarkable clash.
Immediately after, the two halves of the sea of consciousness touched simultaneously, then merged together.
Above, blood-red clouds churned, lightning flashed, and below, monstrous tides rose on the sea surface, invading each other, refusing to yield, each wanting to devour the other.
Han Li felt his soul shudder violently, as if it were about to be torn apart. He had no time to think and frantically activated the Refinement Soul Technique, pouring all his divine sense towards the Evil Corpse.
"Still don't understand? I already have the advantage within the sea of consciousness. The more furious you become, the stronger my power becomes. Haha, let your anger burn even more fiercely!" The Evil Corpse remained as steady as Mount Tai, unmoved, and even mocked him.
With those words, he unleashed his power, pushing forward with all his might, a powerful force sweeping over.
The pressure from half a space continued to bear down. Despite Han Li's best efforts, he was still pushed backward.
Correspondingly, the blood-colored sea of consciousness representing the Evil Corpse took the initiative, pressing over towards this half of the space.
As it occupied more and more space, the blood-red color within it quietly receded, seemingly gradually returning to normal.
Seeing this, Han Li felt no joy, but instead grew increasingly alarmed.
This scene meant that the Evil Corpse was gradually replacing him, becoming the true master of this sea of consciousness. Once his half of the sea of consciousness was completely suppressed, his original divine sense would be relegated to a guest, rejected by the sea of consciousness.
At best, he would escape the sea of consciousness, driven out like a stray dog.
Otherwise, he would be completely devoured and assimilated.
"Haha, you've lost… I will completely replace you. Don't worry, I will make your name resound throughout the Immortal World!" Seeing Han Li retreating steadily, the Evil Corpse felt immense satisfaction.
At that moment, Han Li suddenly sneered and said, "It's not a good habit to be happy too early."
In the next instant, a massive Tai Chi symbol suddenly appeared beneath Han Li and the Evil Corpse, like a giant round mirror, carrying them both, each standing on one of the fish eyes.
"No… how could this be…" The Evil Corpse looked down at what was beneath him, his face stiffening, letting out a frantic roar.
Immediately afterward, black and white light burst from the Tai Chi symbol, suddenly rotating, instantly reversing the situation in the entire sea of consciousness.
"Sever."
Han Li's eyes narrowed, and with a shout, he slammed his fists down.
Within the sea of consciousness, monstrous waves rolled, instantly suppressing the Evil Corpse. The divided space finally, at this moment, returned to unity.
At the same time, on the altar of Frostheaven Island, Han Li, already bleeding from all seven orifices, suddenly opened his eyes. A ball of dark light abruptly separated from between his brows.
A powerful and solid Immortal Spiritual Power trailed behind it, enveloping the ball of dark light like an outer garment.
The moment it left his body, the dark light seemed unwilling to give up, even turning back again, charging towards Han Li's brow.
However, just as it flew, a dazzling light suddenly flashed in the Yang fish eye beside Han Li, sucking it in.
In the next instant, on the other side, the dark light flew out again from the Yin fish eye, directly striking into the brow of the Earth Immortal body, disappearing without a trace.
"No…"
The entire altar was silent for a dozen breaths before a resentful roar suddenly echoed.
The Earth Immortal incarnation's eyes had reopened, filled with ferocity and anger. Seated in place, it held its head in its hands, a look of struggle on its face.
In the air, waves of Sanskrit chants continued to sound, irritating the Evil Corpse, but when it tried to struggle to get up, it found that it could not control this body at all, becoming even more furious.
Sitting opposite him, Han Li's face was still covered in bloodstains, his aura fluctuating, looking quite miserable. However, the eight hundred and forty Immortal Apertures in his body had all been opened just now, and his cultivation had reached the mid-stage of the Grand Luo realm.
However, the Evil Corpse had taken away a significant portion of Immortal Spiritual Power, and he still needed to fully adjust his breath and stabilize his mid-stage Grand Luo realm cultivation.
"Don't say I didn't warn you, you'll have to spend some effort to drive this body. Good luck." Han Li said calmly. After saying this, he closed his eyes again.
Hearing this, and seeing the chains intertwined around his body, the Evil Corpse quickly understood Han Li's intention: he wanted to use this body as a prison to trap him.
Although he was extremely angry, he had to calm down immediately and try to refine this body.
However, as the Evil Corpse's power flowed within the Earth Immortal body, the originally lifeless Immortal body changed rapidly. The blue crystal-like body began to transform into flesh at a visible speed.
Within it, streams of spiritual power circulated up and down, actually creating channels in the Earth Immortal body, connecting all the internal organs together.
The chest of the Earth Immortal body rose and fell slowly, actually emitting vitality.
Han Li, who was meditating, had naturally set aside a wisp of divine sense, constantly monitoring the changes on the Earth Immortal body.
Seeing this, his heart tightened, and he had to wake up again.
The degree of integration between the Evil Corpse and this Immortal body was beyond his original imagination, and the speed of its transformation also made him worried.
Just as he wanted to pause his cultivation and activate the formation to suppress the Evil Corpse, a sudden change occurred.
The Evil Corpse, sitting opposite him, actually struck first.
His body suddenly shone with a blue light. The soaring baleful aura disappeared without a trace, and what emanated from him was a circle of rich Water Attribute Laws.
His aura also rose steadily.
"Not good." Han Li thought to himself, looking up at the golden light screen above.
The golden light screen was suppressed with Buddhist mantras and Sanskrit chants, originally intended to target the Evil Corpse with its soaring baleful aura. Who would have thought that after merging with the Earth Immortal body, this fellow had completely restrained his baleful aura.
"Boom!"
With a loud noise, the blue crystal light on the Earth Immortal body occupied by the Evil Corpse blazed, and a layer of substantive blue water waves burst out from it, directly breaking the surrounding chains.
Immediately afterward, his figure, supported by a blue water dragon transformed from blue water waves, soared into the sky, crashing directly into the golden light screen.
"Buzz…"
A muffled sound rang out. The golden light screen did not collapse, but instead, the water dragon shattered, scattering a splash of water.
"Where do you think you're going?"
Han Li shouted, bending his fingers like claws, grabbing at the Evil Corpse's ankle.
Just as he was about to grab it, the Evil Corpse's ankle suddenly flashed with blue light, directly turning into flowing water.
Han Li grabbed empty air, and just as he was about to grab again, a "bang" exploded above his head.
The golden light screen directly burst open, and the Evil Corpse's figure flashed out, flying away from the altar, heading straight into the high sky without looking back.
At this moment, golden light suddenly lit up in the sky, dazzling and extremely eye-catching.
Within the golden light, a seven-story golden pagoda suddenly appeared in the void, falling quickly, directly covering the Evil Corpse.
Han Li's figure also flew down from the altar, chasing after him into the sky.
However, before he could catch up, another earth-shattering roar came from the sky.
At the top of the golden pagoda, a burst of golden light exploded, breaking open a huge hole, and a thick black light spewed out from it, vaguely revealing a broken black treasure wheel inside.
Han Li looked intently, and the veins on his forehead suddenly bulged. The Evil Corpse had actually detonated the Heavy Water Treasure Wheel in order to escape.
"This time I was careless, I accept this body, I will come and bother you again in the future." A high shout with a trace of resentment came from the sky.
Immediately afterward, a dark light fell from the sky and instantly shot into the sea, stirring up a monstrous wave.
Han Li's face sank, and he quickly chased after it.
Compared to the risks brought about by an unstable realm, allowing the Evil Corpse to escape his control uncontrollably would bring unpredictable troubles in the future.
He would spare no effort to completely suppress it while it was still weak.
All of this took a long time to describe, but in reality, from the Evil Corpse breaking free from the Isolation Method Chains and rising violently, to being suppressed by Han Li using the formation, to the Evil Corpse controlling the Earth Immortal body and escaping, it was only a little over an incense stick's worth of time.
Jin Tong and Ti Hun, stationed on the north and south sides of the island, had not yet figured out what had happened. Seeing this situation, they also hurriedly followed.
In the blink of an eye, Han Li had already chased out thousands of miles. Looking around blankly, he could no longer see the Evil Corpse. He had to hover in the air and use the Refinement Soul Technique to check for its traces.
"Uncle, what's going on? Did something go wrong with the Corpse Severance?" Jin Tong asked anxiously as he caught up.
"The Earth Immortal body is eroded by the power of belief of countless people, including various vicious obsessions of revenge and murder. It has a very high degree of integration with the Evil Corpse. The speed at which it controls the Immortal body far exceeded expectations, and it actually escaped. It has now escaped into the sea. My aura and realm are unstable, and the Refinement Soul Technique cannot be fully exerted, so I have lost track of it." Han Li's face was ashen. After sighing, he said slowly.
At this time, Ti Hun, who had followed closely behind, pointed her finger at her brow and pointed forward with the other, shouting at the two of them:
"In that direction, the speed is so fast, should we…?"
"Chase!"
Hearing this, Han Li hurriedly followed the direction indicated by Ti Hun and chased after them.
