Wang Yu
Chapter 388: Deep into the Gale
These wind pillars wandered around, sometimes intersecting, sometimes separating, covering the sky and the earth. Everywhere the eye could see was a black expanse, making it impossible to see anything.
Han Li was inside the black protective shield formed by the Wind-Calming Pearl, shuttling between the tornado pillars, trying not to directly touch them. At the same time, he concentrated his breath and guarded his sea of consciousness.
He could clearly feel the yin and cold power contained in these wind pillars, and even he was unwilling to bear it head-on.
Although he was still moving forward, his speed had greatly decreased compared to before.
The soul-stirring ghost howls here were also much stronger than before. Although he could withstand them, he dared not release his spiritual sense outside his body.
Spiritual sense was an extension of the soul. If his spiritual sense touched the surrounding desolate winds, the ghost howls in the wind would have a greater impact on him.
Fortunately, he had the Clear Spirit Eyes. Blue light flickered in his eyes, allowing him to clearly perceive the movement of the surrounding yin winds without needing his spiritual sense. Otherwise, he would probably be unable to move an inch.
Whoosh!
A huge black wind pillar roared and swept over at an extremely fast speed.
Han Li twisted his body, like an extremely agile fish, dodging past the wind pillar.
However, at that moment, a black shadow shot out from the wind pillar, rushing towards Han Li at an extremely fast speed, like a black lightning bolt.
Although the black shadow was fast, Han Li reacted even faster.
He flicked his fingers together, and a bright azure sword Qi shot out, accurately striking the black shadow.
With a soft sound!
The black shadow was cut in two by the sword Qi, and the black energy on the surface dissipated, revealing its original form: a pitch-black snake.
This snake was about ten feet long, with triangular heads, pitch-black all over, exuding an extremely heavy yin and cold aura. Its eyes were dark red, looking extremely cold.
After being cut in two, the snake did not die. The two severed bodies twisted and merged together as if it had not been injured, except that the yin and cold aura it emitted had weakened a lot.
Han Li's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise when he saw this scene.
Once the black snake recovered, it did not escape. It hissed, its eyes filled with even more ferocity, as if it had low intelligence.
It twisted its body again and disappeared without a trace as a blurred afterimage.
The next moment, the black monster appeared out of thin air behind Han Li, biting down fiercely.
Han Li smiled faintly and waved his hand.
The space above the black monster rippled, and a hazy blue hand appeared out of thin air. It opened its five fingers and grabbed the black monster in its hand with lightning speed.
The black monster struggled desperately in the blue hand, but could not break free at all.
The blue hand grabbed the monster and flew in front of Han Li.
"This is..." Han Li looked at the black monster and frowned slightly.
This snake seemed to be a monster formed by the condensation of the yin and cold energy here, without a physical body, and was very different from ordinary demon beasts.
Before crossing the Desolate Wind Gorge, he had found many books about the Desolate Wind Gorge. One of them mentioned that some strange yin beasts lived in the depths of the Desolate Wind Gorge, which were difficult to deal with.
This black monster must be the so-called yin beast.
Han Li's hand moved slightly, and the blue hand suddenly clenched.
With a soft "pop"!
The black monster was crushed and burst open, turning into a wisp of black energy.
However, this black energy did not dissipate. Instead, it wriggled like a living thing, faintly about to gather together again.
Han Li's expression darkened, and he flicked his finger.
Crackle!
A golden arc of lightning shot out from his fingertip and struck the black energy in a flash. It was the Evil-warding Divine Lightning.
With a "hiss", the black energy seemed to have met its nemesis and immediately collapsed.
A miserable scream faintly came from the black energy, and then it completely dissipated and disappeared.
Han Li's expression relaxed slightly when he saw this scene.
However, he did not stay here and continued to fly forward.
This black monster seemed to be an opportunity. As he went further, some yin beasts would occasionally emerge from the yin wind and attack.
These yin beasts were not strong, but their bodies could change between tangible and intangible, making them quite difficult to deal with.
Fortunately, Han Li's Evil-warding Divine Lightning could restrain these yin beasts, so he did not have much trouble along the way.
"Huh!"
While flying, Han Li's face showed a hint of surprise.
The surrounding huge yin wind pillars suddenly became fewer. The originally dense black tornado pillars in his field of vision were now sparse, and their scale was much smaller than before.
Han Li was surprised, but he did not stop and continued forward.
The further he went, the fewer yin wind pillars there were. In the end, they completely disappeared.
The whistling yin wind disappeared without a trace. All that could be seen was a faint black mist, gently floating. The surrounding coldness also greatly reduced, and the yin beasts disappeared without a trace.
The yin wind disappeared, and the sounds of ghosts crying and wolves howling were almost inaudible. This place seemed to be a quiet black mist area.
"Have I already passed through the Desolate Wind Gorge?" Han Li thought to himself, then immediately shook his head.
He had only entered the Desolate Wind Gorge for less than half a month. It was impossible for him to have crossed it so quickly.
This place must still be within the Desolate Wind Gorge, probably in a special area.
Unfortunately, he had found very few books about the Desolate Wind Gorge, and none of them recorded this situation.
Han Li pondered for a moment, then the azure light on his body intensified, and he continued to fly forward.
However, he reduced his flying speed a little, and at the same time, blue light flickered in his eyes, probing the movements around him.
He flew for half a day. The surrounding area was always filled with black mist, but the further he went, the mist gradually became much denser. In the end, the mist was so dense that it was almost tangible.
Even with his Clear Spirit Eyes, he could not see far.
Moreover, the mist was no longer as quiet as before. Strange and sharp sounds began to appear, like a baby crying.
Although the sound was not loud, sometimes even faint, it was more powerful than the previous ghost howls.
Han Li raised his eyebrows. It seemed that he had reached a new area.
He reduced his escape speed again, and at the same time, his eyes flashed, shooting out two-foot-long blue lights, checking the movements around him.
After advancing a certain distance in the black mist, his expression suddenly changed slightly. He suddenly stopped and looked ahead.
A rumbling sound came from the front, and the originally quietly surging black mist suddenly rolled violently.
The sound became louder and louder, and the surrounding mist rolled more and more violently. In the end, it boiled like boiling water.
Han Li frowned tighter and tighter, considering whether to avoid it to the rear or to the side.
At that moment, the black mist all around him suddenly spun wildly, and a huge vortex emerged from the front.
With his current field of vision, he could not see the full picture of the vortex at all, not even the center of the vortex. He did not know how big it was.
A powerful suction force emanated from the depths of the vortex, enveloping his body.
This force was immense. Han Li's body was actually pulled up and flew towards the center of the vortex.
His expression darkened, and the azure light all over his body shone brightly, becoming as thick as substance. Only then did his body stabilize.
Han Li glanced at the depths of the vortex, his eyes flashing with a sharp light. Then, the azure light on his body shone again, and he shot towards the sides.
As soon as he moved, the mist in front of him rolled slightly, and a black shadow shot out from inside.
It was a house-sized black toad yin beast, with a short, thick neck and bumpy skin, looking quite terrifying.
The black toad opened its mouth wide and spewed out a thick black light, hitting Han Li head-on, seemingly intending to stop him from leaving.
The black light beam emitted shocking yin and cold energy fluctuations. Wherever it passed, ice marks appeared in the void, as if it had been frozen.
Han Li snorted coldly and waved his hand.
A misty flying sword shot out, and then trembled, turning into a giant azure sword more than ten feet long, with golden arcs of lightning floating on it.
The azure giant sword instantly turned into a golden thunder sword and slashed at the black light beam.
With a loud boom!
The black light beam was vulnerable in front of the golden thunder sword. It only lasted for a moment before being crushed and exploded.
The golden thunder sword blurred, and the next moment appeared above the toad yin beast's head, slashing down.
Chila!
As the golden light flashed, the toad yin beast's body was immediately split in half, and Evil-warding Divine Lightning spread on its two severed bodies.
With a "bang", the two severed bodies exploded, turning into two balls of black energy that dissipated.
Although Han Li had killed this beast, he had been delayed for a while.
The huge vortex behind him rapidly approached again, and the surrounding tearing force increased sharply.
Han Li's expression slightly condensed. He pinched his fingers and the azure light on his body shone, about to use a secret technique to fly away.
At that moment, a thick black shadow flashed in the huge vortex, shooting out with incredible speed. It was a huge tentacle, which wrapped around his body in an instant.
However, Han Li had activated the True Devil Body. Although the tentacle wrapped around his body, it did not actually touch him.
His face changed slightly, then he snorted coldly and pinched his fingers.
The azure light on Han Li's body flashed continuously, and two Azure Bamboo Cloud-flying Swords shot out, slashing at the black tentacle.
Chichi chichi!
The black tentacle was surprisingly tough. The Azure Bamboo Cloud-flying Swords only cut in a short distance before stopping.
Han Li raised his eyebrows, his face showing surprise. Just as he was about to do something else,
The black tentacle suddenly retracted, with immense force. Caught off guard, he was pulled into the huge vortex.
He only felt a blur in front of his eyes, and the next moment he appeared in a violently rotating eye of the storm. The surrounding area was full of rapidly rotating black energy, making a rumbling sound, like thousands of troops and horses galloping.
A huge tearing force surged from all directions, enveloping him, several times stronger than before.
The black tentacle was still wrapped around his body, and it was constantly wriggling, tightening rapidly. However, the True Devil Body was so tough that no matter how the black tentacle contracted and crushed, it remained motionless.
Now that Han Li had been pulled into the depths of the vortex, he calmed down. He ignored the black tentacle on his body and looked around, frowning slightly.
At that moment, a muffled roar came from the depths of the vortex, followed by a "whoosh"!
A black shadow flashed in the vortex in front of him, and another black tentacle shot out, wrapping around Han Li again, and squeezing hard.
Han Li withdrew his gaze and looked towards the depths of the vortex, a cold light flashing in his eyes. He pinched a sword technique in his hand.
