Wang Yu
Chapter 504 Cooperation
Hu Yan Daoren frowned slightly upon hearing this, looking at the crane-haired old woman with a hint of confusion.
Clearly, he had heard of Jiao San before, but he didn't know that the crane-haired old woman was her.
Jiao San's expression was slightly frozen, her eyes fixed on Gongshu Jiu, without much fear. However, the senile old man beside her had a slight change of expression.
Yun Ni's gaze fell on Hu Yan Daoren's back, her eyes filled with worry.
"As the saying goes, you can wear out iron shoes looking for something, but find it unexpectedly. This one Underworld-Frost Immortal Mansion has gathered you all together. Good, very good, excellent! This way, I can avoid running around to a few more places." Gongshu Jiu said, smiling even more brightly.
As soon as he finished speaking, his eyebrows twitched almost imperceptibly, and his gaze fell again on the living corpse on the grand chair in the hall.
Han Li noticed this scene, and his heart stirred. He immediately shouted loudly:
"Everyone in the hall, we have joined forces to kill Xiao Jinhan, and are now completely opposed to the Immortal Palace. This Immortal Envoy has sealed the hall with his spiritual domain, intending to massacre us all. If we don't join hands and resist together at this moment, we will only be waiting for death."
While he was saying these words, Gongshu Jiu also shifted his attention to him, just watching him with a smile on his face, without interrupting, as if what Han Li said had nothing to do with him.
On the other side, Luo Qinghai smiled wryly upon hearing this. Being shouted out by Han Li like this was equivalent to confirming his crime of joining forces to kill Xiao Jinhan. He couldn't defend himself, and the Cangliu Palace was completely tied together with these people.
However, he didn't feel much annoyance, because Han Li was right about one thing: this supervising Immortal Envoy was indeed harboring the intention to kill everyone in the hall. They could only temporarily unite together.
Since that was the case, he had nothing to hesitate about. If he could survive this time, he would just completely lean towards the Samsara Hall after returning to the Cangliu Palace anyway, as they had tried to win him over more than once or twice.
"Meng'er, take this first. It can help you temporarily resist the pressure of the spiritual domain. I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you for a while." Luo Qinghai turned his wrist and took out a blue orb the size of a longan, handing it to Nan Kemeng, and said.
After saying that, he secretly transmitted his voice, teaching her a secret incantation.
"Master, please rest assured, I can still hold on." Nan Kemeng said, her face pale, nodding.
She took the blue orb, didn't even look at it, and threw it directly into her mouth, swallowing it down.
As a low hum sounded from her mouth, a layer of soft blue light rose from her abdomen, and then transformed into a blue light curtain about ten feet in size, enveloping her whole body.
Nan Kemeng immediately felt like she was wrapped in a sea-like gentle force, and her whole body suddenly relaxed, the suffocating feeling also subsided a lot.
"Profound Heaven Spiritual Domain..."
Han Li watched this scene, understanding in his heart.
Luo Qinghai didn't hesitate to use a Profound Heaven treasure to help Nan Kemeng temporarily support a pseudo-spiritual domain to resist the invasion of Gongshu Jiu's spiritual domain.
Being able to make this move meant that he had already decided to accept Han Li's proposal.
Since Luo Qinghai understood the stakes, how could others who had cultivated to this day not understand the various pros and cons? So everyone turned to the supervising Immortal Envoy and Xue Ying, surrounding them in the center of the hall.
"What are you trying to do? To be so presumptuous in front of Immortal Envoy Gongshu, do you want to be enemies with the Heavenly Court?"
Xue Ying shouted, but her figure unconsciously leaned towards Gongshu Jiu. Being watched by so many Golden Immortals with covetous eyes, she didn't feel relaxed either.
"It seems that you all want to win by numbers, but if having more people was useful, why bother with hard cultivation? What a pity, what a pity. After today, I don't know how long it will take for the Northern Cold Immortal Territory to recover its vitality." Gongshu Jiu shook his head, speaking in a compassionate tone.
After saying that, without seeing him make any movements, a sharp "buzzing" sound suddenly came from the void around him.
Everyone in the hall immediately felt a stinging pain in their eardrums, and waves of powerful pressure several times greater than before came from all directions, making everyone's hearts tighten.
"You are going too far!"
Luo Qinghai took the lead to shout in a low voice, his hands forming a hand seal in front of him. A ball of blue light instantly lit up from his fingertips and rapidly magnified, rolling over like a vast ocean wave, enveloping everyone in it.
After being enveloped by the blue light curtain, everyone immediately felt the pressure around them relax a bit.
"The Law of the Sea... you've achieved some success. Your sin is not heavy. I originally wanted to spare your life and take you as an immortal slave for a million years as a small punishment. Why did you have to act?" Gongshu Jiu stroked his palms and praised, then shook his head again.
Hu Yan Daoren and the others, seeing this, also lit up with light, layers of light curtains of various colors, one after another, enveloped the entire hall. Various law powers began to show their power, but the target was only Gongshu Jiu and Xue Ying.
However, Han Li had not used the Time Spiritual Domain again. After the continuous battles, his Time Law power had been consumed a lot. Although there was still some remaining, he could not use it casually.
Facing a Grand Prime Golden Immortal, he had to calculate carefully, penny-pinching, and use every bit of law power in the key places.
Gongshu Jiu was enveloped by flames, oceans, flower shadows, and many other spiritual domains, but his expression remained unchanged.
He simply waved his hand, and two golden lights condensed behind him, from which emerged two solemn-faced, halberd-wielding golden-armored puppets.
As soon as these two appeared, they immediately raised their halberds and held them horizontally in front of them. Golden light shone on their bodies, and an incomparably powerful golden attribute law wave rolled out from them. Their aura was actually approaching the late Golden Immortal stage.
"Go."
Gongshu Jiu uttered a soft shout.
The two halberd-wielding puppets immediately stepped forward and rushed towards Luo Qinghai and Hu Yan Daoren and the others respectively.
"Great Palace Master, leave these golden-armored puppets to us." The white-faced scholar and the black-bearded old man reported, one of them offering a black Xuanmu ruler, and the other holding a white gold long sword, welcoming the golden-armored puppet.
On the other side, Ouyang Kuishan and his fellow sect leader took the initiative to meet another golden-armored puppet, while Yun Ni took the initiative to pounce on Xue Ying.
Hu Yan Daoren glanced at her figure, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes. After all, Yun Ni was injured to save him before.
However, he couldn't afford to be too distracted at the moment. After all, that Gongshu Jiu was a true Grand Prime Golden Immortal. Including Han Li, Jiao San, Chili Reef, and Luo Qinghai, the odds of victory for the five of them against him were probably still slim.
"Everyone, now that things have come to this, don't have any other thoughts. Do your best, and there may be a glimmer of hope." At this time, Han Li's voice rang in everyone's hearts again.
"Fellow Daoist Li's Time Law power is extremely mysterious. At the critical moment, you still need to put in a little more effort." Luo Qinghai said solemnly.
"I will do my best. I hope Fellow Daoist Luo will not hide his strength either. After all, the Wrath of the Ocean can also startle gods and terrify ghosts, with immense power." Han Li replied.
"That's natural..." Luo Qinghai choked slightly, and replied.
While the two were talking, Gongshu Jiu had already made his move.
He waved his hands, forming complex hand seals. In the void behind Han Li and the others, streams of milky white, thick mist surged out, condensing and transforming into white mist figures.
Everyone's expressions changed drastically when they saw these figures.
It turned out that the outlines of those white mist figures were exactly the same as theirs, looking like their shadows. And what surprised them even more was that the aura on these white mist figures was incredibly close to theirs.
"Could this be... a Domain Spirit?" Hu Yan Daoren frowned, muttering.
Legend has it that when a spiritual domain is cultivated to the late stage of Spirit Transformation, Domain Spirits similar to living beings can be conjured within the domain. Their nature is similar to puppets and Dao soldiers, and their specific power is closely related to the owner's Law cultivation.
"It's a bit different... If it were really a Domain Spirit, it wouldn't be so similar to us. It's mostly a manifestation of his Qi Law ability." Luo Qinghai said, after all, he had seen more and knew more.
Before they could reach a conclusion, those white mist figures had already acted, attacking them.
Hu Yan Daoren raised the long sword in his hand, strands of crimson flames wrapped around it, turned around, and slashed down vertically at the oncoming white mist figure.
The white mist figure's body shone with red light, and blazing flames rose from its body. A flame long sword also appeared in its hand, sweeping out horizontally towards him.
One vertical and one horizontal, the two flame lines intersected in the void, making a "boom" sound.
Red flames exploded violently, rising into a high wall of flame.
Hu Yan Daoren and the flame figure simultaneously passed through the high wall of flame, and their sword blades collided again.
On the other side, the figure fighting with Luo Qinghai turned into a green mist, seemingly without substance, constantly attracting blue water waves, colliding with Luo Qinghai's water magic powers.
As for Jiao San and Chili Reef, they were also entangled by the white mist figures, unable to escape for a while.
Han Li held the Azure Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords tightly in his hand, facing the white mist figure with an outline similar to his own.
The figure seemed to have the same mentality as him, and he was cautiously not moving, just holding a long sword condensed from white mist, confronting him.
Gongshu Jiu stood a little further away, with his arms crossed, not intending to take action himself, looking like he was watching from the sidelines.
Han Li's expression was slightly condensed. He shook the long sword in his hand, his toes poked the ground fiercely, and his figure shot forward, disappearing suddenly in mid-air.
In the next instant, he suddenly appeared to the right rear of the white mist figure, the sword tip piercing upwards diagonally.
Han Li used the Reversal of True Wheels divine power, accelerating his own time flow, so this sword was thrust out very abruptly.
Seeing that the sword blade was about to pierce into its abdominal position, the white mist figure also blurred, disappearing suddenly, leaving only a wisp of mist residue in mid-air.
"Could this person also accelerate time..." Han Li's heart jumped, and his figure flashed again and disappeared.
When he landed again, he immediately swept a sword towards his back.
As expected, the white mist figure appeared behind him, following suit, waving his sword at him.
Only a sharp "clang" sound was heard!
Han Li was shocked back several steps by a strong force. The white mist figure, facing the sword, also slid back, and the long sword in his hand was swept away by streams of green sword energy, directly collapsing.
Gongshu Jiu, seeing this scene from afar, frowned slightly, his gaze turning to fix on Han Li's Azure Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords.
