Chapter 453: Betrayal
Countless balls of gray light the size of water vats flew out of the mountain one after another toward the surrounding gray shadows, while the silver bell was also glowing radiantly with silver light while chiming loudly to send silver soundwaves surging through the air in all directions.
At the same time, the tusk sword and the black flag were also releasing formidable streaks of tusk-shaped sword qi and waves of black light, respectively.
Out of these four immortal treasures, none of them had been refined much by Han Li with the exception of the Integrated Five Extremes Mountains, but their combined power was still extremely formidable, and coupled with the Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Sword, they were able to keep the surrounding gray shadows at bay again.
However, right at this moment, Han Li felt a shadow suddenly loom over him, following which a giant gray dragon claw emerged out of thin air amid a burst of spatial fluctuations.
The dragon claw was formed by gray mist, yet it was extremely imposing and appeared to have a substantial form. It seemed to possess boundless power, reaching straight through the sword qi released by the tusk sword before grabbing toward Han Li\'s chest with unstoppable might.
Han Li remained completely unfazed as Daoist Xie abruptly appeared in front of him in its humanoid puppet form amid a flash of golden lightning, and it reached out with both hands to release thick arcs of lightning, which converged in the blink of an eye to form a giant golden lightning ax.
The ax was swung viciously through the air, and it clashed against the gray dragon claw with an earth-shattering boom.
Daoist Xie shuddered as it took a step back, but the gray dragon claw was also repelled and faded away into the surrounding gray space.
Qu Ling raised an eyebrow upon seeing this, clearly not expecting Han Li to have a Golden Immortal Stage puppet on his side, but a cold sneer then appeared on her face as she laid a hand onto the other gray dragon on her armrest.
Her gray throne began to glow radiantly once again as three gray mirrors slowly emerged from behind it. On the surface of each mirror was inscribed an ancient character for "decay", "insanity", and "death".
The entire gray spirit domain began to ripple once again as all of the surrounding gray shadows surged violently, while the gray light within the domain rapidly became denser.
Han Li\'s heart jolted slightly upon seeing this, yet before he had a chance to do anything, the gray throne abruptly shuddered, and the dense gray light that it was releasing quickly faded, while the unrest within the gray domain also subsided.
Qu Ling was rather taken aback by this, and she quickly noticed that for some reason, threads of white light that were crackling incessantly had appeared within the gray light being released by her throne.
She immediately stopped what she was doing upon seeing this, then opened her mouth to release a burst of silver light that enveloped the entire throne.
Only then was the throne slowly stabilized, and the hints of white light within the gray light gradually began to fade away.
Qu Ling\'s expression eased slightly upon seeing this, but she continued to cast a string of incantation seals into the gray throne. At the same time, she swept her other sleeve through the air, releasing two streaks of light, one azure and one golden, and they transformed into a giant azure silkworm and a huge golden beetle, respectively.
"Go and capture that man, but take care not to hurt him as he\'s going to be very useful to me," Qu Ling instructed.
The giant azure silkworm immediately heeded her call, flying through the air toward Han Li, while the golden beetle remained still on the spot.
Qu Ling\'s expression darkened slightly upon seeing this, and she instructed in a cold voice, "You go as well!"
"Alright..." the golden replied in a lazy voice, then began to fly toward Han Li at a leisurely pace.
Qu Ling gave a cold harrumph upon seeing this, then turned her attention back to her gray throne and began releasing incantation seals with greater urgency.
Meanwhile, Han Li was busy keeping the surrounding gray shadows at bay with his five immortal treasures while searching for a way out.
Daoist Xie had already returned to his body. This was a trump card that he didn\'t dare to use all the time, and he had to save it for unforeseen dangers like the situation that had just transpired.
At this moment, hsi face was rather pale, and his breathing was also a little labored.
Enshrouded within Qu Ling\'s spirit domain, he was unable to draw upon any of the world\'s origin qi from the outside world, and that severely hampered his powers and his immortal spiritual power recovery.
Furthermore, using five immortal treasures at once was extremely taxing, and he didn\'t have much immortal spiritual power left.
Not only that, but bursts of restrictive law powers continued to surge toward him incessantly from the surrounding spirit domain, and the time law powers around him were struggling to keep them at bay.
I have to find a way out soon!
Han Li\'s mind was racing as he scoured his surroundings with his Brightsight Spirit Eyes, and all of a sudden, his gaze fell upon a certain point in the spirit domain.
Immediately thereafter, dazzling azure light erupted out of his body as he abruptly flew toward the edge of the domain while making a rapid string of hand seals.
Meanwhile, his Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords also began to glow radiantly like a blinding azure sun, and the golden lightning that it was releasing had also brightened significantly.
Han Li pointed a finger at the sword from afar, and it instantly circled around in the air before transforming into a giant azure dragon that was over 1,000 feet in size.
Every single one of the dragon\'s scales was flashing with formidable sword qi, and thick arcs of golden lightning were surging over its entire body, while its aura had also been significantly elevated compared with back when it was in its sword form.
The giant azure dragon pounced forward with formidable power, releasing countless streaks of peerlessly sharp sword qi that vanquished all of the gray shadows in its path.
Han Li was flying close behind the giant azure dragon, while the other four immortal treasures had also returned to his side, orbiting around him to shield him from the surrounding gray shadows.
It didn\'t take long before he reached the edge of the gray spirit domain, but right at this moment, the huge azure silkworm appeared in front of him in a flash before opening its cavernous mouth to release countless silken threads, which intertwined with one another in mid-air to form a massive azure net that descended upon him.
Han Li\'s expression instantly changed slightly upon seeing this, but his mobility was severely restricted within the spirit domain, rendering him unable to take evasive measures.
The azure net didn\'t appear to be all that remarkable, but it was giving off bursts of special law fluctuations, and if he were to be ensnared in it, it was most likely going to be very difficult for him to break free.
In this dire situation, Han Li pointed a finger at the large black flag beside him, and it instantly swelled drastically in size while releasing a vast expanse of black light that surged toward the oncoming azure net.
A dull thud rang out as the black flag was ensnared by the azure net, and the latter instantly reverted back into countless azure silken threads that spun rapidly around the black flag, forming an azure cocoon in the blink of an eye.
The black flag was instantly immobilized within the cocoon, yet Han Li displayed no intention of trying to free it from the cocoon as he abruptly changed directions, flying around the azure cocoon before continuing onward.
The giant azure silkworm was just about to release another flurry of silken threads upon seeing this when the golden beetle suddenly appeared beside it.
Han Li instantly stopped cold in his tracks as he stared blankly at the golden beetle.
The golden beetle also looked back at Han Li with a bright gleam in its beady little eyes.
The azure silkworm was ecstatic to see that Han Li had suddenly drawn to a halt, and it opened its cavernous mouth to release another flurry of azure silken threads, which instantly formed another azure net that swooped down upon Han Li.
Han Li immediately snapped back to his senses upon seeing this, withdrawing his gaze from the golden beetle as he pointed a finger at the black tusk sword.
A vast expanse of black swordlight surged out of the tusk sword, instantly forming a sea of sword qi that was around an acre in size to oppose the descending azure net.
The giant azure silkworm screeched in derision as it opened its mouth once again, releasing a gust of fierce azure wind this time.
The gust of wind was filled with azure blades of wind that swept rapidly through the air, hurtling toward Han Li from another direction to prevent him from getting away.
All of a sudden, a burst of bright golden light erupted out of the golden beetle\'s body, then converged entirely onto its two front legs.
Two streaks of translucent light that were each several hundred feet in length instantly appeared on those two front legs, and they were giving off a peerlessly sharp aura.
With a wave of its two front legs, the golden beetle released the two streaks of translucent light, but instead of attacking Han Li, it was targeting the giant azure silkworm beside it.
The azure silkworm was greatly alarmed by this, and it hurriedly attempted to fly back in retreat, but the two streaks of translucent light had been unleashed from very close proximity and were far too fast for it to evade.
Two dull thuds rang out, and green blood splattered in all directions as the giant silkworm\'s body was sliced into three pieces by the two streaks of translucent light.
As a result, the descending azure net and the gust of fierce azure wind instantly dissipated in unison.
A hint of elation flashed through Han Li\'s eyes upon seeing this, and there was also a hint of nostalgia, as if he had been reunited with an old friend.
The azure silkworm screeched frantically, and the three sections of its body all began to radiate dazzling azure light as they continued to flee into the distance.
At the same time, they assembled themselves back together, and the flesh around the gashes was squirming incessantly while slowly fusing as one again.
The golden beetle immediately lashed out once again upon seeing this, releasing a flurry of streaks of translucent light at once this time.
In the face of these streaks of translucent light, the azure silkworm\'s body was as fragile as tofu, and it was instantly shredded into countless pieces.
At the same time, the golden beetle flew through the air as a streak of golden light, passing through the shredded remains of the azure silkworm before emerging on the other side in a flash.
Held in its mouth none other than the azure silkworm\'s nascent, which appeared as if it had been carved out of green jade and was radiating dazzling azure light.
Immediately thereafter, the golden beetle opened its mouth before devouring the nascent soul whole.
After that, it still didn\'t seem to be completely satisfied, and a burst of golden light surged out of its mouth to draw in the scattered remains of the giant azure silkworm for its consumption.
All of this had taken place in the span of just a few seconds.
