Almost the next moment when Han Li and Liu Leer appeared on the plaza, an anomaly occurred!

The ground all around the massive plaza rumbled, and nine jet-black stone pillars burst forth from the earth, encircling a large area in the middle.

All the stone pillars were thick enough for one person to encircle, and tens of zhang tall. Swirling around them from top to bottom were countless inscribed words and array patterns. The surface of the pillars was also inlaid with many glittering black crystals, seemingly some kind of special spirit stone, flashing with a bright black light.

In addition, each of the stone pillars had a statue of a ghost at its top. Some had long tongues protruding, others had wings sprouting from their backs. Each was different, but all were lifelike and hideously grotesque, chilling to the bone.

A dazzling black light emanated from the ghosts atop each pillar, connecting with each other with incredible speed, forming a black hemispherical light screen in the blink of an eye.

On the surface of the light screen, dense black runes surged and flickered incessantly. With a billowing baleful aura, countless blurry ghost shadows materialized again and again, and the sounds of mournful wails rose and fell, making it an extremely eerie sight.

Upon seeing this scene, Liu Leer shuddered inwardly and leaned closer to Han Li.

Although this woman was no longer the naive little fox girl she once was, she had never witnessed such a grand display, and her face turned deathly pale.

Seeing this, Han Li didn't even glance at the pockmarked-face elder above. With a wave of his hand, a silver firebird flew out from his palm, and with a "whoosh," transformed into a silver fire net, enveloping Liu Leer entirely beneath it.

"Stay inside, don't be afraid."

Hearing Han Li say this, Liu Leer immediately felt much more at ease.

Just then, the sound of rushing wind arose from all directions.

Escape lights flickered frequently from the surrounding buildings, converging on the plaza, all disciples of the Heavenly Ghost Sect dressed in black robes.

Before long, the vast plaza was filled with a dense mass of figures, numbering in the hundreds, appearing somewhat noisy, and people continued to arrive from all directions.

Han Li, however, remained deaf to the commotion around him, and with a calm demeanor, under the flicker of blue light in his eyes, he leisurely sized up the surrounding nine stone pillars and the black light screen.

The Heavenly Ghost Sect disciples who had gathered assumed that a powerful enemy had invaded the sect. But when they saw a young man with ordinary features in his twenties and a little girl of about ten years old in the center of the array, they were all stunned and began to look at each other in confusion.

However, seeing the grim expression on the face of the pockmarked-face elder above the array, no one dared to step forward and say anything.

The pockmarked-face elder ignored the people around him. With a sway of his body, he landed on a black stone pillar, chanting incantations and waving his sleeves to take out nine black array disks, quickly performing a series of hand seals.

The nine array disks flew out, each landing on one of the nine giant stone pillars below, instantly disappearing into the black light emitted by the pillars.

The black light screen flickered, and as more black runes surged forth and rolled around, it thickened by nearly half. The originally somewhat blurry ghost shadows also became more solid and clear in the flickering runes.

Seeing this, the pockmarked-face elder breathed a sigh of relief, but the hand seals in his hand did not stop.

At that moment, two grand escape lights shot over from the distance, arriving above the plaza in the blink of an eye. The escape lights converged, revealing two figures.

One was an old man with white hair but a ruddy complexion, and the other was a dark-skinned burly man.

Like the pockmarked-face elder, these two were also Void Refinement cultivators.

The ordinary Heavenly Ghost Sect disciples around fell silent instantly at the sight of the sect's three inner elders appearing simultaneously.

As soon as the white-haired old man and the dark-skinned burly man appeared, they couldn't bother to greet the pockmarked-face elder. They released their divine senses to scan Han Li and the girl below, and also swept across the surrounding void.

"Elder Jiang, what exactly has happened? Why did you use the Minor Displacement Void Spirit Plate to bring these two juniors directly into the sect, and also activate the Nine Ghost Kings Heavenly Pillars? Each activation of this array consumes a considerable amount of resources." The white-haired old man looked at the pockmarked-face elder and asked in a deep voice.

The dark-skinned burly man also looked at the latter, obviously greatly puzzled.

"It's good that you two have come. Quickly lend me a hand to activate the great array and refine these two." The pockmarked-face elder said urgently while performing hand seals.

"Activate the great array to refine these two low-level cultivators? This Ghost Kings Heavenly Pillars Array is a restriction that can even trap Composite body mighty figures. Brother Jiang, you're not joking, are you?" The dark-skinned burly man chuckled and did not act according to the other party's words.

The white-haired old man also did not make a move.

The surrounding disciples also stirred, but due to the presence of the pockmarked-face elder, they dared not make too much noise.

Many people had already seen that the man and woman trapped in the array, the man was at the Nascent Soul stage, and the woman was only at the Core Formation stage. Even among them, the disciples, they could find plenty who could kill them. For the pockmarked-face elder, a dignified Void Refinement cultivator, to repeatedly claim that he needed to activate the Nine Ghost Kings Heavenly Pillars, which was famous even in the Spirit寰界, would be a laughingstock if it were to spread.

"Don't underestimate them. Although this green-robed kid's cultivation is quite low, he is actually an extremely powerful body cultivator." The pockmarked-face elder said urgently.

"Powerful body cultivator..." The dark-skinned burly man still shook his head with a smile.

The white-haired old man looked down at Han Li, who was still looking around inside the light screen and even seemed to be quite leisurely. He frowned slightly and was about to speak when, at that moment, Han Li raised his eyebrows, stopped his wandering gaze, and murmured to himself:

"Now that I'm here, I might as well settle things together."

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure swayed, appearing in front of the light screen on one side with a series of afterimages. Then, he extended a slender finger and tapped a certain spot on the light screen seemingly casually.

An incredible scene appeared!

With a soft "poof" sound, the entire black light screen suddenly trembled violently and began to flash wildly. The originally ferocious ghost shadows were now running around like they had lost their souls.

The dark-skinned burly man's smile froze, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes.

The pockmarked-face elder's body shook, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He frantically performed hand seals, trying to stabilize the array.

"Not good! Strengthen the great array, don't let that person break out of the array!" The white-haired old man shouted, his figure flying out and landing on a black stone pillar.

The dark-skinned burly man also reacted and was about to fly towards another stone pillar in shock, but it was too late.

A faint light flashed on the surface of the black light screen. All the ghost shadows vanished in a flash, and then, nine giant ghost faces appeared simultaneously on the surface of the light screen facing the nine stone pillars, their faces filled with pain, opening their mouths and emitting hideous, ear-piercing screams.

The screams were like steel needles piercing the ears. The disciples on the plaza covered their heads and screamed miserably. Some with weaker cultivation had blood flowing directly from their ears and noses.

After the screams, countless black runes surged out from the nine giant ghost faces, and then, after a blur, they directly collapsed.

The entire light screen then "cracked" as if it were glass, shattering and dissipating into countless black fluorescent lights!

Not only that, but countless cracks also appeared on the ghost statues on top of the nine black stone pillars, and they shattered with "bang" and "bang" sounds.

At this moment, Han Li had already retracted his finger, put his hands behind his back, and walked towards Liu Leer, who was not far away, amidst the swaying black fluorescent light.

Liu Leer, who was under the silver fire net, looked joyous. If she were not still surrounded by a large group of enemies, she would have almost cheered out loud.

The pockmarked-face elder and the other two were greatly shocked, as if they had been struck hard, to see the sect's great array being broken so effortlessly by the other party.

The hundreds of Heavenly Ghost Sect disciples around were even more dumbfounded, staring blankly at everything before them.

"You dare to destroy my sect's treasure array! Prepare to die!"

The pockmarked-face elder shouted and spat out a white light, which transformed into a white bone saber with nine large silver rings inlaid on its back.

His hands changed like wheels, successively performing five or six hand seals.

The nine silver rings on the bone saber emitted a "ding ding" sound, confusing the minds of those who heard it. Countless blood-colored runes suddenly appeared on the surface, and it bloomed with a dazzling blood-red saber light nearly a hundred zhang long, slashing down towards Han Li's head.

At the same time, the white-haired old man waved his arm like lightning, offering up an ancient black cane with a black dragon head at the top.

With a spin in mid-air, the cane grew larger against the wind, transforming into a black strange dragon with wings on its back.

The dragon opened its mouth and spat out a large black flame with a "poof," rushing down.

The dark-skinned burly man also unhesitatingly took out a gray feather fan, seemingly made from the feathers of some kind of spirit bird. He poured the magic power in his body into the fan and then fanned it fiercely.

The world suddenly changed color. A gloomy gray wind roared out and transformed into seven or eight gray wind dragons, pouncing towards Han Li.

Seeing the pockmarked-face elder and the other two take action, the surrounding Heavenly Ghost Sect disciples no longer hesitated, offering up various magical treasures and chanting incantations.

In an instant, various spirit lights rose and fell.

Seeing this, a crystal light flashed between Han Li's eyebrows, and a vast divine sense shot out from it, instantly enveloping the entire plaza with lightning speed.

Buzz buzz buzz!

An unspeakable, powerful soul force pressed down.

Everyone on the plaza felt a sinking feeling in their minds.

Countless golden stars flashed before the eyes of the surrounding Heavenly Ghost Sect disciples, and then, with a darkness before their eyes, they fell from mid-air and landed on the plaza, collapsing directly on the ground, unable to move.

The magical treasures in the sky immediately lost control and fell to the ground with clanging sounds.

The pockmarked-face elder and the other two ultimately possessed Void Refinement cultivation, and their souls were quite extraordinary. After a tremor, they immediately recovered.

The magical treasure attacks launched by the three did not stop at all. The saber light, black flame, and wind dragon rushed to Han Li in the blink of an eye.

Han Li remained motionless, showing no sign of dodging.

Three loud bangs resounded!

The blood-red saber light exploded violently under a violent tremor, transforming into a white bone saber and shooting back. The black flame and wind dragon even directly collapsed, failing to cause the slightest harm to Han Li, not even damaging the green robe on his body.

As for Liu Leer on the side, because most of the attacks were blocked by Han Li, she was unharmed under the silver fire net.

"How is this possible!"

The three gasped in unison, almost unable to believe what they were seeing.

"Is it my turn now!"

Han Li raised his head and said lightly.
