At the same time, in the high sky tens of thousands of miles away, a giant black crane opened its mouth and let out a sharp cry, spewing out visible ripples, wrapped in billowing black flames, towards a silver firebird of equally immense size a thousand feet ahead.

Then, it turned its head and glanced with lingering fear at the direction of the blood sun's explosion in the distance, secretly rejoicing in its heart.

Fortunately, it had been chased away from there by the silver firebird earlier, otherwise, if it had been slightly affected by the blood sun's explosion, it would have been in deep trouble.

Facing the surging black flames, the silver firebird flapped its wings violently.

A series of explosions erupted!

Clusters of silver light flew out from its wings and exploded, turning into rolling silver flames, instantly disrupting the approaching black flames, scattering them in all directions.

A hint of fear flashed in the depths of the black crane's eyes, but it said with a hint of mockery:

"Little one, your master is dead!"

Hearing this, the silver firebird appeared momentarily stunned, then let out a sharp cry. The silver flames around its body surged, transforming it into a giant fireball that flew out. Wherever it passed, the menacing black flames could not stop it at all and were absorbed into it.

The black crane had no intention of continuing to entangle with the silver firebird. Taking advantage of the other party being blocked by the black flames, it rolled its wings and flew downwards.

However, halfway down, it suddenly changed direction and sped away in another direction.

In the void thousands of feet away, a cloud of black smoke slowly condensed into shape, and Chong Luan's figure staggered out of it, just in time for the descending black crane to catch him on its back.

"Go! Get out of here..." Chong Luan immediately cried out urgently as soon as he landed on its back.

The black crane did not dare to hesitate, and its wings immediately flapped violently, and its body suddenly rose, about to fly away into the distance.

But at this moment, countless golden electric arcs appeared and intertwined out of thin air a thousand feet in front of it, and then a golden thunder formation of several feet in size emerged.

After a thunderclap, Han Li's figure flashed out, holding a cyan long sword in his hand, with golden electric arcs wrapped around it, and slashed down towards Chong Luan.

"Han Li!" Chong Luan looked up and roared.

Looking at the figure that appeared out of thin air, a hint of despair flashed in his eyes. He had not hesitated to self-detonate his natal magic weapon, but he had not been able to injure the other party at all.

He grabbed in front of his chest with one hand, and a blood-red circular crystal shield immediately flew out with great light, blocking in front of him.

At the same time, all the remaining blood煞qi in his body surged out, condensing into a blood-colored armor on his body.

Before the spiritual patterns on the armor could be completely condensed, the cyan long sword wrapped in golden lightning had already slashed down.

"Boom..."

A deafening roar sounded, and dozens of golden electric lights more than a hundred feet long burst out from the blood-colored crystal shield, like dozens of thunder god whips dancing wildly in the high sky.

"Crackling..."

Sounds of electric arcs bursting were constantly heard, and the air began to fill with the pungent smell of burning.

Immediately afterwards, a cracking sound of "crack" rang out.

The blood-colored crystal shield blocking in front of Chong Luan shattered with a bang, and the long sword in Han Li's hand slashed down.

A cyan light suddenly lit up from Chong Luan's forehead. It was his bronze forehead guard that shone brightly, blocking Han Li's sword.

"Break for me!" Han Li shouted violently.

The golden scales on his arms turned up, he tightly grasped the hilt of the sword and pressed down with all his might. The runes on the cyan long sword lit up brightly, and wisps of golden electric arcs surged out, and the sword slashed down.

"No!"

Chong Luan let out an unwilling roar, and the bronze forehead guard cracked with a "crack".

Han Li's long sword was no longer hindered and directly split his head in half, while the black crane beneath him seemed to have been hit by a huge force and fell towards the sea.

Near the sea surface, its wings immediately flapped violently, its body suddenly rose, and it flew away in a hurry.

Without Han Li's command, the Jing Yan Firebird, which had already devoured the black flames, had already spread its wings and chased after it.

Han Li grabbed Chong Luan's corpse by the collar with one hand to prevent it from falling into the sea, and frowned slightly after scanning it with his divine sense.

At this moment, the aftermath of the blood-colored sun explosion earlier also came over. Although the power had been reduced by more than a thousand times, it still turned into gusts of wind whistling past, making him feel a little lingering fear.

In fact, he had only discovered the clue at the moment when the blood knife exploded. At that time, it was too late to use any protective measures. At the critical moment, he had to summon the power of time from the Mantra Treasure Wheel again, causing a brief delay in the impact of the blood-colored sun's explosion.

He seized this fleeting opportunity, reversed the Mantra Wheel and escaped, and according to the direction of the divine sense, he used the Evil-Exorcising Divine Thunder in the Azure Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords to perform the Thunder Formation Escape Technique and chased after him.

At this moment, a black light suddenly lit up at the right sleeve of Chong Luan's corpse, and a Nascent Soul little man with a pitch-black body and a transparent cloak drilled out of the sleeve. His face looked exactly like Chong Luan's, and with a flash of black light, he disappeared in an instant.

However, almost immediately, an explosion suddenly sounded.

A violent fluctuation came from the void hundreds of feet away, and Chong Luan's Nascent Soul staggered out, looking back in horror, and was shocked to find that Han Li was looking at him expressionlessly, with a dark eyeball splitting open from his brow.

"Nirvana Eye..." Chong Luan's Nascent Soul was filled with despair.

Before the escape light on his body could light up again, Han Li had already raised his sword and slashed at him.

A cyan sword light swept across, and under the tearing of the violent sword energy, Chong Luan's Nascent Soul and the transparent cloak covering it were instantly rolled in and torn to pieces.

Watching the black light completely disappear, Han Li did not relax his heart, but his eyes flashed with blue light, carefully exploring the surrounding void.

After carefully exploring it again, confirming that there was no trace of Chong Luan's aura left in the surrounding void, he put away the Bright Sight Spirit Eyes, and after collecting Chong Luan's storage bracelet and other items, he chased after the black crane.

The Silver Flame Firebird had already stopped it, turning into a giant silver fire circle, surrounding it in the center.

No matter how the black crane charged left and right, it could not escape, and it kept making hissing sounds.

It could not imagine how its master would lose to the ordinary-looking youth in front of it, but now the ironclad fact was in front of it, and it could not help but believe it.

"Senior, spare my life. I am a barbarian alien bird, and I have a natural understanding of the fire attribute laws. If you are willing to spare my life, I am willing to serve you as my master! By the way, I also know many of Chong Luan's secrets!" The black crane shouted in a panic as it watched Han Li approaching.

Han Li pretended not to hear what the black crane said, pinched a sword art with one hand, and the cyan long sword in his hand immediately drew an arc in mid-air, with the tip of the sword pointing down and falling straight down.

With a "chi" sound!

A huge sword shadow more than a hundred feet long was reflected from the sword body and pierced through the black crane's head.

The black crane let out a shrill crane cry and plunged down towards the sea below.

Han Li followed closely behind, flew down, and with a flash of cyan light on his palm, he grabbed its Nascent Soul.

A miniature black crane phantom was seen being grasped in Han Li's hand with his five fingers formed into hooks, its wings waving violently and struggling, its eyes full of fear.

The Jing Yan Firebird flew down and turned into a silver flame child, landing on Han Li's shoulder, staring at the black crane phantom with a clear look of covetousness in its eyes.

"What's the rush?" Han Li glanced at the silver flame little man and said with a smile.

With that, he clasped the phantom with his five fingers, closed his eyes, and a burst of light lit up in his palm, enveloping it.

After a while, Han Li slowly opened his eyes, but his mood became a little complicated.

In the black crane's divine sense memory, there was not much about Fang Pan.

However, from these few contents, it could be seen that what Chong Luan had said to him earlier was not false, and he really did not know who Fang Pan was instructed by to deal with him.

In the black crane's memory, Han Li saw the loess palace surrounded by the vast desert, and the black chains covering the ground in the palace. In his mind, he almost subconsciously thought of the "Isolation Yuan Law Chain".

In the center of the main hall, he saw the pitch-black large chair and the figure wearing a snow-white cloak, but no matter how hard he tried, he could never see the person's face clearly.

It seemed that in the depths of the black crane's memory, it was extremely afraid of this person, so that it never dared to look at him directly.

After a moment of silence, Han Li threw the black crane's Nascent Soul to the Silver Flame Child, and he flew onto the black crane's back, and collected all the storage bracelets and other items left by Chong Luan.

The Silver Flame Child happily took the black crane's Nascent Soul, opened his mouth, and swallowed it whole into his stomach.

Only a burst of light was seen lighting up on its round belly, and it seemed that a raging fire was rising inside.

Han Li also dissected and took out the monster core in the black crane's body. Looking back at the Jing Yan Firebird, he found that its body was shaking after devouring the black crane's Nascent Soul, and it was swaying from side to side as if it was drunk.

However, he was connected to the Firebird's divine soul, and after realizing that it was not in serious trouble, he was relieved.

He stepped forward, picked it up, and with a flash of light in his hand, he took it back into his body.

After doing all this, Han Li took out a pill and swallowed it, looking back at the direction of the Holy Puppet Sect, and his mind turned.

From what he had seen earlier, the Holy Puppet Sect was probably doomed this time. It would be futile for him to go back now, and instead, he would put himself in a dangerous situation.

After all, he was hired by the Holy Puppet Sect as a member of the Unconstant Alliance, and he was only assisting in resisting the enemy. He would never risk his life for the Holy Puppet Sect.

Moreover, Chong Luan had sneaked into the forbidden area of the Holy Puppet Sect before. Although the purpose was unknown, he was now killed by him. If he went back early, there would inevitably be a lot of trouble.

As for the reward for this mission, he might as well not take it. After all, he had killed several True Immortals, and the magic weapon spoils alone were enough to make up for it, not to mention the wealth in the storage magic tools.

With this thought in mind, he looked back at the direction of the Holy Puppet Sect again, then turned around and turned into a escape light, flying towards the distance.
