Chapter 1386: A Hair's Breadth Between Victory and Defeat

Han Li perceived the conflicting aura that spread out, and a trace of understanding flashed in his heart.

That was precisely the aura contained within the Heavenly Dao itself, upright and just, yet indifferent and ruthless, without a trace of pity for all living things in the world.

He saw the seven-colored ribbons flying into the sky under the guidance of the bottle spirit, like a seven-colored dragon stirring into the dark green sea of clouds, then tumbling into the chaos vortex.

Gu Huo Jin watched Han Li and the others' actions without intervening.

This was not because he was too conceited, but because he needed to fully activate the great formation while the two vortices were fiercely contending.

Of course, more importantly, he needed to accelerate the absorption of the chaotic laws permeating the heavens and earth. As long as he successfully advanced to the Chaos Dao Ancestor, he would become the embodiment of the power of chaos, and the laws of heaven and earth would be at his mercy, becoming a true god of creation.

At that time, no one and no force would be able to defeat him, and Han Li and the others would become the best sacrifices for him to create a new world.

"You underestimate the power of chaos too much, don't you? To think that a mere Palm Heaven Bottle could turn the tables is just wishful thinking," Gu Huo Jin sneered sarcastically.

As he spoke, he raised his hands, and as his sleeves fluttered, the chaos vortex above his head immediately swirled wildly, and a stream of dense dark green mist was absorbed into it at a hundred times the previous speed.

After a burst of distortion, the chaos vortex transformed into a blurred giant face.

Seeing this face appear, the Lord of Samsara Palace frowned and shouted loudly, "Gu Huo Jin is merging with the Dao, once that face is formed, all is lost!"

Upon hearing this, the Devil Lord no longer held back in the slightest. Demonic energy surged around him, his figure rapidly expanded, and two huge curved horns grew on his head. His originally handsome face disappeared, and he directly transformed into a huge demon over ten thousand feet tall.

With one step, the void beneath his feet shook violently, and circles of enormous silver ripples immediately spread out from his feet, extending tens of millions of miles before gradually disappearing.

At the same time, the entire True Immortal Realm felt it, and all spaces vibrated violently, as if welcoming the birth of the Dao Ancestor who controlled this law.

In this battle, after Han Li, the Devil Lord, who had guarded the peak of the Great Luo for endless years, finally took one step and achieved Dao Ancestor.

In fact, like the Lord of Samsara Palace, he had long possessed all the qualifications to become a Dao Ancestor, but partly out of fear of being feared by Gu Huo Jin, and partly out of concern about the erosion of the Heavenly Dao, he had been self-sealing, without taking that step.

At this moment, he had nothing to worry about.

Whether one becomes a Dao Ancestor or not, the perception of the laws of heaven and earth and the operation of the Heavenly Dao are almost two completely different things.

A flash of fanaticism appeared in the Devil Lord's eyes, and he raised his hands high, clapping them together.

The void around Gu Huo Jin twisted, and an invisible spatial force instantly squeezed towards his body, trying to completely sever his connection with the chaos vortex.

With a loud bang, Gu Huo Jin's body instantly exploded, turning into a cloud of gray dust.

But in the next instant, a flash of gray light condensed his figure again.

"I have merged with the Dao for the most part, all your efforts are destined to be in vain," Gu Huo Jin laughed loudly.

At this moment, Han Li, who had been closing his eyes to activate the Palm Heaven Bottle, suddenly opened his eyes, grinned, and asked with a smile:

"In vain? I don't think so!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a dazzling seven-colored light appeared in the enormous chaos vortex, transforming into a seven-colored swimming dragon with a length of tens of millions of feet, tumbling and stirring in the vortex.

Standing on the dragon's head was a blurry figure, arms crossed, with an expression of confidence, naturally the Bottle Spirit.

The swimming dragon charged high into the sky, then suddenly turned its dragon head and swooped down from the center of the chaos vortex, heading straight for the dark green vortex below.

As soon as the swimming dragon entered the dark green vortex, its body began to shrink rapidly, heading straight for the mouth of the Palm Heaven Bottle.

Under its traction, the chaos vortex was directly pulled into an enormous funnel, and the rolling chaos clouds poured down, flowing into the dark green vortex, and then into the Palm Heaven Bottle.

"No, no, impossible..." Gu Huo Jin cried out in disbelief.

He continuously cast spells with both hands, but was unable to prevent the chaos vortex from being absorbed by the small bottle. On the contrary, he was affected by the vortex and was pulled towards the mouth of the bottle.

In extreme anger, he slashed out with one hand, and a huge light blade formed by chaos light flew out, separating himself from the vortex, but he could only watch helplessly as the chaos vortex was completely sucked into the small bottle.

After absorbing the chaos vortex, the small bottle began to flash with various colors of light, making the entire bottle extremely transparent. Through the bottle body, one could even see a gray vortex crouching inside, still spinning rapidly.

Moreover, the Palm Heaven Bottle did not return to its original shape, but remained in its huge tower-like form, swaying left and right, shaking constantly.

"Bottle Spirit Senior, this small bottle..." Seeing this, Han Li frowned and asked in his mind.

"I don't have time to explain to you right now, I have to help the Palm Heaven Bottle suppress this power of chaos," the Bottle Spirit's voice came, his tone very anxious.

Han Li didn't dare to ask more questions. He had tried to refine the Palm Heaven Bottle before, but ultimately failed.

But he couldn't be blamed for this. The power within the Palm Heaven Bottle was very close to the Heavenly Dao, and it couldn't be refined just by having a high enough realm or strong enough power.

"Variables, variables, still that variable... I should have killed you first!" Gu Huo Jin roared, his figure shrouded in a cloud of chaos, gnashing his teeth.

At this time, he no longer had the initial tranquility.

His fierce killing intent almost materialized, and even the power of chaos could hardly cover it up.

"If you want to kill me, you can try," Han Li said with a smile, one hand behind his back.

"Don't be careless, this guy is only one step away from the Chaos Dao Ancestor now, his laws are not affected by the Heavenly Dao, and he can exert them with all his strength, but you two must beware of being devoured by the Heavenly Dao," the Lord of Samsara Palace reminded him through sound transmission.

As soon as he finished speaking, the void in front of him collapsed completely.

Gu Huo Jin seemed to have merged into a gray mist, and the surrounding chaotic mist was like countless tentacles, constantly spreading around, and everything that the void could touch was swallowed into it.

"What's going on?" the Devil Lord asked in surprise.

"Without the chaos vortex providing the power of law, Gu Huo Jin has fallen into a berserk state, and will constantly absorb power from the surrounding world. I'm afraid this void will be swallowed by him," said the Lord of Samsara Palace.

"Stone friend, first seal off this space to prevent him from obtaining more power as much as possible," Han Li shouted loudly.

Upon hearing this, the Devil Lord didn't hesitate and immediately activated the power of law.

Silver light surged wildly from his back, transforming into two enormous silver light wings, expanding towards the void on both sides. After only a dozen breaths, they enveloped an area of tens of millions of miles.

When the two wings closed again, this area had been isolated from the entire void.

"If I want to completely seal off this area, I have to devote myself to it, and I won't be able to take care of the battle," the Devil Lord said.

"Stone friend, just seal off the space, leave the battle to us," Han Li said.

The Lord of Samsara Palace nodded upon hearing this.

"Okay."

The Devil Lord let out a shout, and the silver light on his body suddenly brightened, and his entire person began to blur.

His figure gradually became illusory, merging little by little into the spatial barrier that isolated the heavens and the earth. Four human-shaped statues, all in the image of the Devil Lord, appeared on the east, west, north, and south sides of the light curtain.

At the upper and lower ends of the barrier, there were two enormous silver light arrays, and faintly visible in the middle void were silver light feathers suspended in it.

Each of these silver light feathers contained the true meaning of the law of space, seemingly light as a feather, but in reality, weighing a thousand pounds.

They floated into the void, falling like snowflakes into the mist around Gu Huo Jin. Even the mist formed by the power of chaos law was crushed and disintegrated inch by inch by these silver light feathers.

Gu Huo Jin's figure reappeared, but his appearance had changed drastically. He no longer had the appearance of an otherworldly expert with immortal demeanor. Most of the clothes on his body were torn, and his hair was disheveled, looking completely like someone who had gone mad from cultivation deviation.

His legs, which had been damaged by the backlash of the Heavenly Dao, seemed to have recovered. He stood barefoot, with chaos vortices swirling in his eyes, his killing intent soaring to the sky, and his eyes fixed on Han Li.

Han Li's heart tightened, and with a wave of his hand, seventy-two Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords appeared in his palm, and he grasped them tightly.

The Lord of Samsara Palace glanced at him, then at Gu Huo Jin, took a deep breath, and cast a spell with both hands, causing the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disc behind him to spin slowly.

A thousand years of gratitude and resentment, ten thousand years of grievances, retribution is at hand.

These life-and-death enemies, whether they should be called one pair or two pairs, finally ushered in the moment of the final battle.

"Success or failure depends on this, let's go." With a thought, the Lord of Samsara Palace rushed forward first.

The light on the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disc behind him flashed frequently, lighting up six reincarnation light pillars, which surged out from his body at the same time, heading straight for Gu Huo Jin.

Gu Huo Jin jumped up, shrouded in chaotic mist in front of him, and his figure disappeared in an instant.

In the next instant, his figure passed directly through the center of the six light pillars, coming directly in front of the Lord of Samsara Palace.

"So fast!" Han Li's heart tightened.

Under the spatial law suppression of the Devil Lord, Gu Huo Jin could still have such speed, which was truly shocking.

"Die." Gu Huo Jin whispered, and grabbed towards the throat of the Lord of Samsara Palace with one palm.

A strange color flashed in the eyes of the Lord of Samsara Palace, and the light on his body had already lit up. His figure suddenly became illusory, and he was about to dissipate from the spot.

However, Gu Huo Jin snorted coldly, and the gray light outside his body instantly enveloped the Lord of Samsara Palace. The latter's originally illusory body returned to its original state, and a flash of blood light flashed across his throat.

"Chila" A strange sound!

Han Li's eyes trembled, and he saw that the entire neck of the Lord of Samsara Palace was directly torn off, and a good head also separated and fell towards the void below.

"Stop..." Han Li shouted.

Gu Huo Jin did not give Han Li any chance to help, and kicked out, blasting the entire head of the Lord of Samsara Palace.

As the head exploded, the aura of the Lord of Samsara Palace completely dissipated between heaven and earth.
