Chapter 803: Abnormalities
Han Li took a glance at the wreckage of the hall, then gently placed a hand onto Shi Chuankong's shoulder, and a burst of pure immortal spiritual power instantly swept through his body, suppressing the poison so that it didn't spread any further from his wound.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Li."
Shi Chuankong could feel the numb sensation in his body quickly fading, and he hurriedly rose to his feet, then took a blue pill.
A series of blue patterns instantly appeared over his entire body, and countless strands of muscle fibers emerged from the wound on his waist, then connected together to heal the wound, while the black coloration on the nearby skin also began to fade.
"Looks like all of your subordinates have already betrayed you. What do you want to do with them?" Han Li asked.
A conflicted look appeared on Shi Chuankong's face upon hearing this.
Right at this moment, a string of loud explosions rang out, and the ruins of the hall erupted as Elder Qi and the others flew out into the open before pouncing at Han Li and Shi Chuankong again.
Han Li took a glance at Shi Chuankong, then made a grabbing motion with one hand, and three Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords instantly appeared before him.
With a flick of his wrist, the three Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords transformed into countless golden lightning threads that shot forth through the air, reaching the oncoming assailants in a flash.
Every single lightning thread was glowing radiantly, and they were giving off formidable lightning law power fluctuations.
Elder Qi's expression changed slightly upon seeing this, and he let loose a thunderous roar, upon which three azure vortexes reappeared in front of him, releasing waves of azure ripples that formed a dense azure light barrier in front of everyone.
The torrential barrage of golden lightning threads fell upon the azure light barrier, and a series of tiny vortexes appeared on its surface, attempting to devour the golden lightning threads.
However, the sword threads formed by the Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords were extremely formidable, and they were only stopped in their tracks for a split second before piercing through the azure light barrier with ease.
The azure light barrier instantly exploded violently, but it had bought everyone enough time to react.
The rotund middle-aged man clenched his hands into tight fists before ramming them against each other, and a metallic clang rang out as a series of golden ripples surged out of his body.
The golden lightning threads that were caught in the ripples instantly began trembling erratically, and a small portion of them exploded on the spot, while the rest were stopped cold in their tracks.
The rotund man then let loose a loud roar before making a grabbing motion with both hands, and all of the golden ripples instantly converged to form an extremely life-like golden lion projection that let loose a deafening roar.
In the face of the destructive soundwaves, all of the remaining lightning threads were also shattered before disintegrating into specks of golden light.
At the same time, two beams of black light shot out of the dark-skinned elderly man's eyes, while a vast black shadow erupted out of his body.
The shadow contained a burst of glacial law powers that caused the nearby space to warp and blur, as if it had been frozen solid.
The golden lightning threads were instantly stopped cold in their tracks by the black shadow, while the woman in the red dress opened her mouth to release a translucent white ring.
The ring swelled dramatically to over a hundred feet in size at her behest, encompassing her entire body within it, and it revolved around her briefly before exploding on its own to form a white cloud that was hundreds of feet in size.
The oncoming golden lightning threads were able to pierce into the white cloud with ease, but they were instantly slowed down as a result, as if they had pierced into a viscous swamp.
The woman took advantage of this window of respite to dodge to the side, allowing her to evade all of the golden lightning threads.
Meanwhile, Elder Qi flew back in retreat before appearing among the eight Golden Immortals in a flash.
The eight of them immediately formed an orderly circle around Elder Qi, and lights of different colors rose up from all nine of their bodies, then intertwined with one another before dancing through the air like a storm of flowers.
Elder Qi rubbed his hands together, and a torrential barrage of incantation seals instantly shrugged forth.
All of the flowers of light of different colors instantly fused into one, then formed a gray array that encompassed the nine of them.
The golden lightning threads struck the gray array before exploding into arcs of lighting, and the array instantly began trembling incessantly, but it showed no signs of breaking.
Even though everyone had managed to ward off the golden lightning threads, Han Li remained completely unfazed, and he turned to Shi Chuankong again as he urged, "You can't afford to be indecisive here, Fellow Daoist Shi!"
Shi Chuankong shuddered, and the indecision in his eyes faded as he replied, "My apologies, Fellow Daoist Li. If they're determined to kill us, then there's no need for you to hold back."
Han Li nodded in response, then swept a sleeve through the air, releasing nine Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords, and all of the golden lightning threads up ahead also flew back before reverting back into three golden flying swords.
The twelve Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords were all glowing radiantly as Han Li made a rapid string of hand seals, and streaks of golden sword qi descended out of the sky to form a massive sword array that was several acres in area.
It was none other than his Horned Dragon Sword Array, and as it descended from the heavens, it seemed to be bringing the nearby space along with it.
The dark-skinned elderly man and the woman in the red dress immediately darted away in opposite directions, just barely getting out of the way before the golden sword array fully descended.
The two of them had managed to escape, but the rotund man and Elder Qi and the eight Golden Immortals weren't so fortunate, and all of them were caught within the array.
A grim look appeared on the rotund man's face as he opened his mouth to release a burst of golden light that vanished into the golden lion projection in a flash, and the projection instantly swelled to several times its original size to encompass him within it.
Immediately thereafter, countless golden runes emerged over the golden lion projection's body, and it instantly took on a much more substantial form. At the same time, a series of golden spots had also appeared over its skin, resembling a suit of scale armor, giving it a very fearsome appearance.
The golden lion let loose a ferocious roar as it began to bound forward, trying to escape from the sword array.
At the same time, the gray array that Elder Qi was situated in began to glow brightly while releasing a series of threads of gray light that swept toward the surrounding sword array, attempting to break it open from the inside.
A cold sneer appeared on Han Li's face upon seeing this, and countless streaks of formidable golden sword qi erupted out of the sword array at his behest, alongside twelve golden sword projections that resembled giant dragons, all of which struck the golden lion and the gray array.
The golden lion instantly crumpled, falling away into several pieces as if it were made from tofu.
As a result, the rotund man was revealed with an alarmed look on his face, and before he had a chance to do anything, two sword projections swept right through his body, slicing him into pieces.
At the same time, all of the threads of gray light released by the gray array also instantly shattered upon making contact with the opposing sword qi.
Several sword projections then struck the gray array, and it was barely able to put up any resistance before it was also destroyed.
A torrential barrage of sword qi instantly inundated Elder Qi and the eight Golden Immortals, and a chorus of agonized howls rang out.
"Gao Feng, you bastard! Stop!" the woman in the red dress screeched in a furious voice as she pounced at Han Li like lightning while flipping a hand over to summon a pink jade fan.
The fan was entirely pink in color with countless vibrant butterfly designs emblazoned upon it, and it was giving off a layer of pink flames.
Han Li and Shi Chuankong both faltered slightly upon hearing her enraged cry, but before they had a chance to do anything, the woman swept the fan vigorously through the air, releasing a burst of dense pink light that surged toward Han Li in a frenzy.
At the same time, the dark-skinned elderly man also transformed into a black shadow that pounced at Han Li, and as he did this, black shadows began to surge out of his body, forming a black cloud that was several hundred feet in size.
A low roar rang out from within the cloud, following which a giant black turtle the size of a house emerged.
The creature had six eyes and a series of giant ice spikes on its back, and its entire body was giving off a fearsome glacial aura.
As soon as the giant black turtle appeared, all six of its eyes instantly sprang open at once to release six pillars of black light, which covered a distance of several thousand feet in the blink of an eye to strike at Han Li.
In response, Han Li immediately made a hand seal, and arcs of thick golden lightning erupted out of his hands, forming two dense walls of golden lightning that stood in the path of the pink light and the pillars of black light.
Two dull thumps rang out as the walls of lightning shuddered violently, then instantly settled down once again, keeping the oncoming attacks at bay.
Even though the pink light and the pillars of black light had been stopped in their tracks, the law powers imbued within them were able to pass through the walls of lightning and into Han Li's body.
There was a burst of glacial law powers that had some effect on his body, but was kept out before it was able to infiltrate very deep. However, the other burst of law powers was as soft as cloud and mist, and it quickly began to burrow into his body upon contact.
Han Li caught a whiff of a peculiar aroma, and his bones shuddered while all of his pores opened up at once, and he was suddenly overcome by such an intense wave of feebleness that he almost fell to the ground.
He immediately realized that this burst of soft law powers was interspersed with some type of fragrant substance, and both had infiltrated his entire body.
The two of them had been combined together to perfection, and he was unable to tell them apart.
