As soon as the golden puppet appeared, its figure blurred and disappeared. The next moment, it appeared on top of Han Li's head like a ghost.
With a flash of golden light, a golden puppet with a height of more than 30 meters, wearing a light armor and holding a demon vanquishing pestle stepped out from it. It waved the pestle at Han Li's head.
After Han Li threw a black ball in the direction of the Heavy Water Real Wheel, he then raised his arm and smashed at the demon vanquishing pestle above his head.
The golden scales on his arm turned up, and it directly became bigger, colliding with the demon vanquishing pestle.
"Boom", there was a loud noise.
A golden fist slammed heavily on the demon vanquishing pestle, and it immediately stirred up a more violent airwave.
Before the sound disappeared, there was also a deafening roar from the Heavy Water Real Wheel.
The Heavy Water Lightning that Han Li had just tossed out exploded with a resounding boom.
A circle of incomparably violent silver electric arcs immediately spread out in all directions, enveloping an area of over a thousand feet in radius.
The white light cluster of the old man's flying sword was the first to bear the brunt, and it was dispersed. The Heavy Water Real Wheel was not affected much, and it continued to spin forward.
Immediately after, there were several "peng peng" sounds of explosion. Among the seven flying swords, five of them actually exploded under the tremendous power of the Heavy Water Wheel and turned into powder.
The old man felt his mind shaking when his flying sword was destroyed. He spat out a mouthful of blood.
He had no time to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth as he cast his gaze toward Han Li, upon which a hint of incredulity flashed through his face. The golden-armored puppet that he had been nurturing within his body for many years was slowly cracking open like porcelain.
At this time, he realized something. He didn't even care about the remaining two flying swords. With an escape light, he dashed toward the distance at an amazing speed.
Almost at the same time, the golden-armored puppet shattered with a "crack".
"Elder Li, that guy ran away!" Bai Suyuan shouted in the distance.
Han Li glanced at the direction of the old man's escape, and he was not in a hurry to chase.
With a wave of his hand, he first kept the Heavy Water Real Wheel, then he kept the remaining two flying swords and the pellet that could turn into a golden net into the storage bracelet.
Immediately afterward, countless silver electric arcs appeared on his body, and they flashed into a circular lightning array with a diameter of more than a hundred meters. Countless silver runes were flashing inside.
Following an earth-shattering thunderclap, the silver formation disappeared without a trace. Only a few silver arcs of lightning flickered on the snowy mountain, which quickly dissipated. Only Bai Suyuan and the others were left standing on the spot, looking at each other in dismay.
After all, true immortals were simply too far away from them. The brief clash between Han Li and Liu Yue had taken place in the span of just a few breaths, and it had truly left them in a state of complete astonishment.
In the sky above a snowy plain tens of thousands of kilometers away, the thin old man had blood seeping out of the corner of his mouth. He was activating his Divine Ability with all his might and rapidly flying forward.
His expression was solemn, and deep fear could be seen in the depths of his eyes.
According to the information he had gathered, this Elder Li was merely an early-stage Loose Immortal who had just joined the Torch Dragon Sect. However, after exchanging blows with him, Elder Li already possessed a True Wheel magic treasure and possessed strange divine abilities. Although he hadn't used all of his abilities just now, he knew that if the battle had continued, he would have died without a doubt. Now that he was fleeing in panic, it was fortunate that Elder Li didn't pursue him.
But right at this moment, an earth-shattering sound of thunder suddenly resounded high up in the sky.
The old man looked up and saw a silver arc of lightning as thick as a water tank pouring down from the sky. Amidst the flashes of lightning, there was actually a figure with fluttering clothes and black hair. He was like a god descending from the sky.
There was also a black spear in his hand, surrounded by lightning, and he stabbed it toward Ye Futian.
Everything had happened so suddenly that the old man had no way of dodging. He hurriedly raised his hands and summoned a round shield covered in scales to protect his head.
"Boom!" A loud sound rang out!
The Heavy Water Spear, which was surrounded by lightning, directly penetrated the round shield and pierced through the top of the old man's head.
But right at this moment, a small person about three inches tall, whose whole body was wrapped in golden armor, suddenly flashed out from the top of the old man's head.
Before Han Li could do anything, a layer of blood light suddenly appeared on the surface of the little person's skin. Then, the little person suddenly turned into a cloud of blood mist and disappeared without a trace.
Han Li immediately released his Divine Sense and instantly enveloped the surrounding tens of thousands of miles. But in the end, he couldn't find anything, so he had to give up.
He slowly pulled out the Heavy Water Spear that had pierced into the old man's body. Then, he made a grabbing motion in the void. The storage bracelet on the old man's wrist automatically fell off and flew toward him.
The whole process was as smooth as flowing water.
After grabbing the storage bracelet, he explored it with his Divine Sense and found that there were a lot of things in it. In addition to a few good quality magic weapons, there were more than ten Immortal Meta Stones. It was not in vain for him to chase after them.
After putting away the storage bracelet, Han Li flew back in the direction he came from.
However, when he returned, he found that Bai Suyuan and others were taken to a valley near the Pine Green Ridge by Su Tongxiao. Fang Yu and more than ten disciples from the other two teams were with them.
Except for Qi Huanyu, who had four people's physical bodies destroyed along the way, the rest of the disciples were not injured, but many of them still had a look of lingering fear on their faces.
Su Tongxiao was sitting on a boulder in the valley at the moment. His aura was a little unstable, and he seemed to be injured.
"How is it, Brother Li, did you catch that person?" As soon as he saw Han Li, he immediately greeted him and asked.
Obviously, he already knew what had happened here just now.
"That person's physical body has been destroyed, but his Nascent Soul used an unknown Blood Escape Secret Technique and escaped." Han Li shook his head and said.
"Fortunately, Brother Li arrived in time, and these disciples are not seriously injured. I was careless on my side, sigh … But destroying that guy's physical body can be considered as giving a little explanation to the sect." Su Tongxiao said with a sigh.
"Brother Su, then do you think this trial should continue?" Han Li asked.
"A Perfected Immortal Realm cultivator appeared in the trial, it's hard to guarantee that the other party doesn't have other backup plans. For the sake of safety, the trial must be stopped.
Let's go back and report to the sect first. "Su Tongxiao shook his head and said.
"That's good too." Han Li nodded and said.
"By the way, it's all thanks to Brother Li this time. You should have a share of the filial piety from the elders."
Su Tongxiao suddenly leaned a little closer, took out a storage bag, and stuffed it into Han Li's hand.
"Brother Su, you're too kind." Seeing this, Han Li did not say much and kept the storage bag.
After all, if he did not help in time, perhaps Su Tongxiao would be in a worse situation now.
To prevent any unforeseen events, the group did not choose to fly, but walked back the way they came.
After this incident, the self-proclaimed geniuses in the sect became more obedient. Even Qi Huanyu and Tang Chuan were not as high-spirited as before, and became much quieter.
Su Tongxiao led the way in front, with the disciples in the middle, and Han Li brought up the rear.
Bai Suyuan was not sure if it was because she found out from the person that Elder Ancestor Bai was still alive, but after thanking Han Li, she walked in the middle of the group alone, looking a little worried.
Sun Ke walked and stopped occasionally. After hesitating for a while, he purposely lagged behind the group and quietly walked to Han Li's side.
Just as he was thinking about how to speak, he suddenly heard a familiar voice, "Fellow Sun, how have you been?"
"Ah … It really is Brother Li … No, no, it's you, Elder Li …" Sun Ke was slightly stunned, and quickly replied with a respectful expression.
"Previously on the Sea Crossing Thunder Boat, I hope you don't mind." Han Li replied with a smile.
"Of course not, of course not … It's just that I didn't expect Elder Li to be the inner sect elder of the Fire Dragon Path. If I knew this earlier, I wouldn't have spent so much effort to use my connections to give treasures to others in exchange for the opportunity to enter the inner sect. I would have just given the treasures to you, Elder Li." Sun Ke replied with some regret.
"I didn't expect it either. If I knew you were coming, I would have come together.
Speaking of which, I still can't forget about Fellow Sun's fine wine.
These days, when I saw you take out the Fire Saliva Wine from afar, I've been craving it the whole way. "Han Li laughed.
"Since Elder Li likes it, I still have some here. I'll give them to you." Hearing this, Sun Ke said without hesitation.
"Fellow Sun, I have a presumptuous request. I don't know if you can agree to it." Han Li didn't reply, and instead changed the topic.
"Elder Li, please speak your mind." Sun Ke was slightly stunned.
Han Li straightforwardly said, "I wish to use a spirit treasure to exchange for the Firesaliva Wine's recipe. Are you willing to accept?"
"To be honest, this wine is different from other spirit wines. The recipe is a secret recipe passed down from generation to generation in the family. I'm afraid it has long been lost in the outside world.
Although I secretly brought it out this time, the family has always prohibited it from being spread … However, Elder Li has saved my life twice. Although my cultivation level isn't high, I'm not someone who doesn't know how to repay favors. It's convenient for me to give this wine to Elder Li. "Hearing this, Sun Ke revealed a trace of embarrassment on his face, but then he gritted his teeth and said so.
"Since you gave me the recipe, I'll also give you a Spirit Treasure, so that people won't accuse me of bullying the young.
This sword's grade is not low, so it's not easy to control. After you refine it, you need to practice more. Don't disgrace this treasure. "Hearing this, Han Li flipped his hand, took out a storage bag and handed it over.
Inside the bag was the golden long sword that was taken from the Clam Essence Beast.
A trace of fear flashed on Sun Ke's face, but he didn't refuse and took the storage bag. At the same time, he handed over an old paper made of unknown material and a fiery red exquisite wine bottle.
Han Li first put away the wine bottle, and looked at the wine recipe recorded on the old paper for a moment. Then, he took out a jade slip and made a copy, and returned the original to Sun Ke.
This scene was noticed by the other disciples walking in front. After discovering that Sun Ke had a good relationship with an inner sect elder, they all became envious and looked at Sun Ke differently.
Even if there were true immortals in their respective families, they didn't have the guts to talk to a true immortal like this.
Especially in their view, this "Elder Li" Han Li seemed to be more powerful than Elder Su, and should have a higher status in the sect. After all, under his protection, Tang Chuan's group didn't have any major casualties, but under the protection of Elder Su, four people in Qi Huan Yu's group had their bodies destroyed.
There were a few female cultivators who looked at Sun Ke with an inexplicable look.
