Wang Yu

Chapter 117: Back in Trouble Again

After quickly dividing up the spoils, Han Li and the others once again split up to search for a way out.

After all, not leaving this strange underground space would not set their minds at ease.

Han Li was currently standing on a patch of open ground a hundred feet away from the statue, using his Bright Sight Spirit Eyes to carefully examine every part of the space.

Jiao Ba and Lu Kun, after recovering slightly, each used their secret techniques to search.

As time passed, the three of them used several methods, but still couldn't find any clues to get out. Han Li was still able to maintain some composure, but Lu Kun and the other man were gradually becoming impatient.

Just at that moment, an anomaly occurred!

The entire space suddenly shook, trembling violently.

The three of them were shocked to see this.

But before they could react, the ground of the space suddenly shattered completely with a bang.

Gurgle!

A mass of viscous blood-cloud suddenly surged out of the broken ground, swelling up fiercely and completely engulfing the three of them with lightning speed, then shrinking sharply, dragging them into the broken ground.

Han Li felt a whirl of dizziness, but the blood-cloud around him firmly entangled their bodies.

When their figures stabilized, they found themselves in another unfamiliar, huge space.

This appeared to be an underground cave much larger than the previous one, but most of the area was a huge underground lake. The lake water was blood-red, looking very viscous, constantly bubbling and bursting open with a pop.

Every time a bubble burst, a stream of blood-red mist would emerge, filling the entire underground cave with a faint blood mist.

In the center of the blood-colored lake, there was a flat island protruding from the water surface, about a hundred miles in size, like a huge square.

Han Li, Jiao Ba, and Lu Kun were now standing on this square.

In the center of the square stood a huge palace, surrounded by a dense blood-cloud. From the outside, only a vague outline of the palace could be seen.

The huge underground cave was empty and desolate, eerily silent, with only the sound of bubbles bursting in the lake rising and falling.

The two San Xian who had fled earlier were nowhere to be seen.

After taking in the surrounding environment, Han Li was just about to release his spiritual sense to investigate the surroundings, but then he uttered a soft "Huh."

The blood-colored mist surrounding him was filled with a strange power, preventing his spiritual sense from leaving his body at all.

Jiao Ba and Lu Kun's faces also darkened, obviously having noticed this situation. The former raised one hand and released his Earthly Fiend Avatar.

Lu Kun's mouth moved slightly, just about to say something.

"Careful below!" Han Li suddenly shouted.

Before the words were spoken, the ground beneath their feet suddenly cracked open, and several huge blood-red bone claws reached out from within, grabbing at their feet.

The three figures rose from the ground and flew into the air, the bone claws grabbing at empty space.

Puff puff puff!

The ground continued to crack open, and huge figures emerged from within. They were blood-red skeletons several meters tall, and hundreds of them appeared in the blink of an eye.

Each skeleton emanated a powerful aura, not inferior to a Composite Body cultivator.

These skeletons let out a low roar, and their huge figures shot out, pouncing on Han Li and the others in mid-air.

At the same time, the blood lake around the island churned, and then blood-red monsters leaped out from within.

These monsters had the faces of women, with long blood-red hair, and a pair of wide bat wings on their backs, but their lower bodies were serpentine.

The aura emanating from these half-human, half-snake monsters was no less than that of the skeletons. As soon as they flew out of the blood lake, they immediately transformed into streams of blood shadows, pouncing on Han Li and the others from the air.

In an instant, nearly a thousand skeletons and snake women surrounded the three of them impenetrably.

The faces of the three of them changed slightly at the sight of this.

Jiao Ba snorted coldly, and without seeing any action from him, the Earthly Fiend Avatar beside him shone with dazzling green light, as dazzling as the sun. With a wave of both hands, the green light around him shot out, splitting into four, and in a flash transformed into four huge green wind dragons, pouncing in all directions.

Boom boom!

A dozen skeletons and snake women pouncing towards them were hit by the wind dragons and sent flying.

Most of the monsters directly hit were torn apart and exploded.

However, a small portion of them, although seemingly damaged, had the surrounding blood-colored mist rush into their bodies as if it had a spirit, and their injuries recovered at a rate visible to the naked eye, completely healing in a few breaths.

This scene fell into Jiao Ba's eyes, causing him to frown slightly.

These four wind dragons seemed ordinary, but each one was condensed by him using the power of the Law, and the power of a single blow was far beyond what a Grand Ascension cultivator could withstand. However, these skeletons and snake women were so tough, and they also had such a strong ability to heal themselves.

Lu Kun still didn't activate his Earthly Fiend Avatar, seemingly wanting to preserve his power of belief, but with a wave of his hand, he sacrificed eight blue flying knives, which swelled up against the wind and transformed into eight blue giant blades, spinning and flying around.

Around each blue giant blade, seven or eight blurred blade shadows appeared. In an instant, the eight giant blades transformed into dozens of giant blue blade shadows, slashing towards all directions with lightning speed, emitting a roaring sound like angry waves.

In the blink of an eye, the hundred-foot radius was filled with bright knife lights, a chilling light, and overwhelming power.

Immediately, more than a dozen skeletons and snake women were struck and their bodies exploded directly.

Compared to Jiao Ba and Lu Kun, Han Li's methods were unremarkable. He just punched out one punch after another towards the surroundings.

Every time he threw a punch, the surrounding void would vibrate violently.

Any enemy that tried to attack him was smashed with a single punch, without exception.

In just a few breaths, hundreds of skeletons and snake women had been killed by the three of them.

However, new ones were constantly being produced from the ground and the blood lake, and the number of monsters besieging the three of them did not decrease at all.

"Fellow Daoists, now that Jiao San's whereabouts are unknown, Gongshu Hong is very likely in that blood-colored palace. We are in the dark while the enemy is in the light, so this is not a long-term solution." Han Li said as he patrolled around with his Bright Sight Spirit Eyes, while urging his mask to transmit his voice to the other two.

"Could it be that you have found a way to escape?" Lu Kun's face lit up.

Jiao Ba also looked over.

This underground cave seemed ordinary, but the two of them could clearly sense that the entire cave was shrouded in a powerful Law power, and it would not be easy to get out.

"I have found a few suspicious places, but it will definitely take some time to break through them. These skeletons and snake women are very annoying." Han Li transmitted his voice.

"I will deal with these杂兵, I have a way to trap them for a moment, you take Jiao Jiu and find a way out as soon as possible." Jiao Ba said after a slight hesitation.

"Okay, then I will trouble you."

As Han Li spoke, he threw out a series of punches, and seven or eight invisible fist shadows shot out, then exploded violently.

Rumble! A deafening roar exploded!

A terrifying force suddenly erupted, tearing a hole in the encirclement formed by the surrounding skeletons and snake women.

Han Li's whole body shone with green light, and he took the opportunity to fly out of the gap in the encirclement, flying towards a certain place at the top of the underground cave.

The surrounding skeletons and snake women paused for a moment, then suddenly roared in unison, and most of them directly abandoned Jiao Ba and Lu Kun, and pounced towards Han Li.

Jiao Ba snorted coldly, and pointed his fingers repeatedly. The Earthly Fiend Avatar once again bloomed with an even more dazzling green light than before, spreading out in circles, instantly covering most of the space.

Buzz!

The void suddenly trembled strangely. Where the green light shone, the heaven and earth spiritual energy trembled, and cyan filaments appeared in the void, entangling the skeletons and snake women, causing their speed to stagnate.

Seeing this, Han Li didn't stop at all, and in a blink of an eye, he flew near a certain place at the top of the cave and punched out.

Just at that moment, a figure flashed at the top of the cave, and two figures emerged from within. They were the big bearded man and the black-skirted ugly woman who had fled earlier.

Without saying a word, the big bearded man suddenly smashed a punch at Han Li.

The ferocious white bone fist armor on his fist suddenly shone brightly, and a huge fist shadow shaped like a devil flew out.

The black-skirted ugly woman's hand flashed with black light, and a thick black wolf-tooth club appeared. With a shake, it transformed into layers of black club shadows, forming a black club mountain, and struck down towards Han Li.

There was a heaven-shattering roar!

The devil fist shadow shattered, and the black club mountain also paused, then exploded.

The big bearded man and the black-skirted ugly woman's bodies shook violently, and they were sent flying, crashing heavily into the cave wall, causing the entire cave to rumble and shake, their faces full of shock.

Having seen Han Li's battle with Qiu Wu earlier, although they knew that Han Li's physical strength was extraordinary, they only realized after fighting him that the other man's strength far exceeded their expectations.

Han Li's body also swayed, and he took two steps back before stabilizing himself.

"Jiao Fifteen, I will help you!"

A blue light shot out from behind, and two figures appeared in a flash. It was Lu Kun who had summoned his Earthly Fiend Avatar at some point.

He gave a soft shout and opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of blue light, which submerged into the avatar beside him.

The Earthly Fiend Avatar suddenly shone with blue light, and opened its mouth to spit out.

Whoosh whoosh!

Two balls of water-blue light flew out, and countless blue runes flickered in the light, emitting a strong wave of the Water Law.

With a flash, the water-blue light balls grew heads and limbs, turning into two blue water people, and flew out with extreme speed, pouncing towards the big bearded man and the black-skirted ugly woman respectively.

The series of changes seemed complicated, but it was actually completed in an instant.

The big bearded man and the other man had just stabilized their figures. Seeing the blue water people flying towards them, the former's pupils shrank, and he flipped his hand and threw the gauntlet on his hand. He opened his mouth wide and spat out a mass of blood essence, which transformed into a blood mist and merged into the gauntlet.

A layer of blood color suddenly appeared on the gauntlet, and with a loud hum, it transformed into a ferocious blood-red ghost head the size of a pavilion.

The tightly closed eyes of the ghost head opened, and blood light shone in its eyes. Its blood mouth opened violently, and rolling blood flames shot out from it, rolling towards the oncoming blue figure.
