The sudden scene before him caused Han Li's face to darken, but his expression quickly returned to calm.

With the black chains being so strange, this situation was within his expectations.

He exhaled lightly and then urged his spell incantation within his heart. Even denser silver light threads continuously surged into his dantian, bombarding the black chains.

Cracking sounds erupted!

Although the silver light threads were still shattered upon touching the black runes, the black runes were also being continuously consumed.

The blade formed from Divine Sense crystal threads continued to chop down.

Wave after wave of silver light threads and Divine Sense crystal threads bombarded the chains, causing the black runes surrounding them to dim.

However, Han Li's face did not show much joy.

The black runes were indeed decreasing, but the magic power within his body was now almost depleted.

Although he had made sufficient preparations beforehand, pushing the magic power that could be stored within his five viscera and dantian to their limits, it now seemed that it was still far from enough.

Han Li let out a low roar, urging all the remaining magic power within his body, causing all the silver light threads within his dantian to flash, transforming into eight silver light palms. They pierced through the remaining black runes and grabbed onto the eight black chains, pulling with all their might.

The black chains immediately tightened, and a sharp pain transmitted from his nascent soul.

Han Li gritted his teeth, but his heart skipped a beat!

Since the nascent soul had been sealed by the black chains, he had not felt anything at all. But now, he finally had some connection with his main body.

Without saying a word, he urged the Refining Divine Art, and all of his Divine Sense power poured into his dantian. It split into two, and with a flash of crystal light, transformed into two crystalline giant axes.

Several silver arcs of electricity flew out from the lightning palms, wrapping around the crystalline giant axes, and chopped down fiercely, striking the taut black chains.

A loud crash echoed!

The taut black chains trembled violently, and cracks appeared where they were struck.

Han Li was overjoyed and drove the giant axes to chop down again.

Just at that moment, a sudden change occurred!

The space around him fluctuated, and a segment of black chain appeared out of thin air. Before Han Li could react, it flashed and disappeared into his body.

The surrounding starlight array seemed unable to stop it in the slightest.

With a "click"!

The black chain wrapped around Han Li's nascent soul, connecting the other eight chains together.

Buzz!

Countless black runes surfaced on the surface of the nine black chains, spinning rapidly, radiating light in all directions, causing the two silver light palms gripping the chains to be immediately pierced by piercing black light and dissipated.

Clang clang!

The crystalline giant axes struck the chains and immediately shattered, turning into a shower of shimmering light and dissipating.

……

At the same time, in a hall deep within a desert somewhere in the Immortal World.

The zombie man stretched out a hand, his entire body enveloped in dazzling black light, with countless black runes flashing and dancing inside.

The chains around him rattled, as if countless tentacles were dancing wildly, striking the ground and the walls of the hall, making loud noises.

The zombie man lowered his raised arm, and the black light on his body quickly dissipated. The wildly dancing chains also calmed down quickly and fell to the ground.

"Seventh, for the sake of our relationship as master and disciple, I will help you one last time," the zombie man muttered to himself before closing his eyes.

……

In the small courtyard, Han Li suddenly stood up, his eyes flashing with blue light as he looked around, his face extremely gloomy.

At the same time, his Divine Sense was released without hesitation, instantly covering the sea area thousands of miles around Black Flood Dragon Island, but he found nothing.

After a while, his expression uncertain, he slowly sat down.

The black chain that had suddenly appeared must have been transmitted by someone with extremely high magical powers using a remote spell.

It now seemed that the person who had placed the seal on his nascent soul was far more terrifying than he had anticipated.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through Han Li's mind, and he hurriedly urged his Divine Sense.

Buzzing sounds!

A massive amount of Divine Sense surged into his dantian, forming a layer of crystal light, covering the nascent soul in layers.

Doing so might not be useful, but hopefully it would block some connection with the outside world.

After doing all this, Han Li sat down cross-legged again, flipped his hand, took out a thousand-year-old Cloud Crane Grass, put it in his mouth, and chewed it heartily.

Although this attempt ultimately failed, he was pleased that this method did indeed have a glimmer of hope of shaking the black chains.

Although the appearance of that black chain ultimately ruined the attempt, if he had enough magic power to support him, even if there was one more chain, he might be able to break it forcibly.

……

A month later, a secluded courtyard on Black Flood Dragon Island.

At night, seven huge white pillars of light descended from the sky, covering the entire courtyard.

Han Li, dressed in a cyan robe, was sitting cross-legged in the courtyard with his eyes closed.

Around him, countless spots of silvery-white light, like countless white fireflies, slowly danced, occasionally touching his skin, but quickly bouncing off and floating back into the air.

Inside the courtyard, the white light was faint, like a layer of white veil, and from within came waves of rich and gentle Stellar Energy fluctuations.

At this moment, the seven clusters of blue light at Han Li's chest and abdomen gradually disappeared, and the white light surrounding him suddenly brightened, then gradually dissipated, and the seven towering pillars of light in the night sky also disappeared.

He slowly opened his eyes, looked up at the starry sky, his face showing some helplessness, and smiled wryly: "As expected, it still doesn't work..."

In the past month, he had tried several methods to increase the magic power in his body, all of which had failed without exception.

In recent days, he began to continue practicing the Lesser Dipper Stellar Art, in an attempt to find a way to further enhance the power of the Five Viscera Origin Tempering Art.

However, although Stellar Energy would still be summoned and fall, the seven Mysterious Apertures in his body were already full, and could no longer absorb more Stellar Energy.

Han Li sighed, staring intently at the Big Dipper in the night sky, his vision gradually blurring. He only felt that several of the stars, as their light flickered, became blurred, as if they were about to overlap.

Just then, his heart skipped a beat, and a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in his mind: since he couldn't increase the magic power in his own body, why not cultivate an avatar?

With this thought, Han Li reached out and touched his chin, thinking carefully.

Using an avatar to cultivate and accumulate magic power would naturally bypass the sealed state of his nascent soul. As long as the avatar could provide him with sufficient magic power, he would be able to solve those troublesome black chains.

But where would this avatar come from?

Although Han Li had previously cultivated the Mysterious Wood Transformation Infant Art, and had even cultivated it with the Supreme Wood Spirit Infant, this technique required the condensation of a second nascent soul.

And to condense a second nascent soul was not only demanding, but also required a lot of effort and time, which he was now most unwilling to waste.

Other avatar techniques he knew also required a lot of time, and were therefore not feasible.

Just as he was hesitating, the statue head in the forbidden area of Black Flood Dragon Island came to mind, and his eyes immediately lit up.

"That's right, Earthly Fiend Avatar is also an avatar..."

With this thought, Han Li immediately stood up from the ground. With a wave of his hand, a light flew out of his sleeve and landed somewhere on the island.

……

About a quarter of an hour later, in the seabed forbidden area in the northwest of Black Flood Dragon Island, there were two more figures.

One of them was dressed in a cyan robe and was tall. It was Han Li, and behind him stood a Confucian-robed man with a confused look on his face. It was naturally Luo Feng.

He had been cultivating in his cave when he suddenly received a sound transmission talisman from Han Li, and immediately came here. At this time, he was at a loss.

"Senior Liu, you asked me to come to this forbidden area, is there anything important to order?" Luo Feng couldn't help but ask.

"I have some things to ask you later." Han Li simply said, without explaining anything more.

After speaking, he walked straight to the front of the stone platform and reached out to hold up the blue statue head.

After examining it carefully in front of him for a moment, his eyes flashed with blue light, and he pointed a finger at the center of the head's brow.

Seeing this, Luo Feng's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously wanted to stop him, but in the end he did nothing, just leaned forward and stopped in place with his mouth slightly open.

The moment Han Li's fingertip touched the center of the statue's brow, a light that could not be seen by the naked eye suddenly lit up from the statue head, rippling like water waves.

Although this light was not very strong, nor did it have much destructive power, it made Han Li's body shake violently the moment it touched him, and an unbelievable expression appeared on his face.

He was surprised to find that the chains in his nascent soul were resonating weakly with this light, and were now shaking slightly with the waves of light.

After a little thought, the cyan light in Han Li's hand suddenly brightened, and a strand of pure magic power shot out from his fingertips and entered the statue head.

Inside the head, it was as if a storm had risen, and countless Belief Power crazily swirled. Suddenly, several strands of faint blue magic power surged out from it, directly colliding with the strand of cyan magic power that Han Li had input.

Although the cyan magic power was pure, it was only a very small strand. After the collision, it immediately dissipated like smoke.

Han Li looked at the strands of blue magic power, his heart filled with joy. He suddenly withdrew his finger from the statue head, turned around, and asked Luo Feng:

"Clan Leader Luo, besides being able to use the power of laws, did your Black Flood Dragon Island's Ancestral God's Earthly Fiend Avatar have any other supernatural powers?"

At this time, all the abnormalities and fluctuations on the statue head had disappeared.

Luo Feng was relieved to see that the statue head was unharmed. Hearing Han Li's question, he immediately replied:

"Although Lord Luo Meng's Earthly Fiend Avatar does not have a nascent soul, it can also convert some magic power through Belief Power, so it can also use other spells."
