Chapter 980: Violet Spirit
However, as soon as he sprang up into the air, the pressure within the azure light surging out of the Xuanwu puppet\'s mouth increased significantly, and the fire blasting out of the Vermilion Bird puppet\'s beak also became far hotter and more fierce.
E Kuai\'s brows furrowed slightly upon seeing this, but he continued to rise up without pause, striving to break free from the encirclement so that he could prevent the resurrection of the holy remains.
However, right at this moment, Sha Xin swept a sleeve through the air, releasing a streak of golden light that transformed into an armored puppet with radiant golden lightning flashing all over its body.
The puppet was very strong and sturdy in appearance, and it was around ten feet tall. Its entire body was covered in golden armor, to the point that even its face was concealed behind a heavy visor. As opposed to any form of weapon, all it was holding was a giant golden shield that was over five feet tall.
As soon as the golden puppet appeared, it immediately sprang up into the air, then came plummeting down like a small mountain upon the ascending E Kuai.
"Get out of my way!" E Kuai roared as he threw a punch at the puppet, which responded by putting the entire weight of its body behind its shield.
A sound akin to a giant gong being struck rang out, and bursts of peculiar soundwaves erupted out of the shield.
Each successive burst of soundwaves was louder than the previous one, and they were like waves of the sea crashing against the shore with unfathomable power.
E Kuai felt a burst of overwhelming force radiate through his arm, and his entire body began trembling uncontrollably as he was involuntarily forced back down out of the air.
The shield-bearing puppet was also sent flying by the tremendous force of E Kuai\'s punch, tumbling end over end through the air.
However, right at this moment, a golden figure suddenly appeared within the encirclement formed by the four symbol puppets, and it quickly arrived by E Kuai\'s side, completely unaffected by the restrictive powers unleashed by the four puppets.
As soon as E Kuai landed on the ground, he immediately threw a punch at the golden figure, smashing a huge hole through the oncoming corrosive dragon\'s breath and blades of wind, but the golden figure evaded the attack with ease before abruptly appearing above E Kuai\'s head, revealing itself to be another golden puppet.
However, this one was far smaller than the shield-bearing puppet, standing at no more than three feet tall, and it was scantily clad in bits of golden armor that only concealed some of the sensitive regions of its body.
It was wielding a giant golden sword that was even longer than it was tall, and it pierced the sword directly down upon E Kuai\'s head.
E Kuai instantly swiveled around before throwing a punch upward, and a burst of radiant starlight erupted out of his fist.
In response, the golden puppet withdrew its sword before concealing its entire body behind it, using it as a shield. The force of E Kuai\'s punch was enough to send it flying into the distance, but at this point, the shield-bearing puppet had already made its return, taking over the responsibility of keeping E Kuai occupied.
The sword-wielding puppet sprang up into the air before landing on the shield-bearing puppet\'s shoulder, and the two of them formed a seamless partnership
"You\'re all going to pay for this!" E Kuai roared as he joined his index and middle fingers before pressing them against his own forehead, and a red flame-like symbol instantly appeared on his glabella.
"He\'s going to use a blood-incinerating secret technique! Brace yourselves, everyone!" Sha Xin hurriedly yelled in an alarmed manner.
Han Li reflexively wanted to enter the fray upon hearing this, but a hesitant look then appeared on his face as he turned back to the holy remains, which was still in the process of absorbing blood from the lake.
Right at this moment, a loud thump rang out around E Kuai, and all of his profound acupoints lit up, but they were glowing crimson rather than white. At the same time, his skin also took on a dark red coloration, and countless worm-like veins began to bulge over his body.
His aura was also rapidly elevating, and it was as if a cloak of blood mist had appeared around him, keeping out the restrictive powers exerted upon him by the four symbol puppets.
Immediately thereafter, he sprang up into the air, but before the four symbol puppets or the two golden puppets had a chance to stop him, he plummeted back down onto the ground on his own, adopting a horse stance as he did so.
An earth-shattering boom rang out as the entire underground space shuddered violently, and the ground around E Kuai began to disintegrate as countless giant rocks were flung through the air in all directions
In the blink of an eye, all of the giant rocks that had been flung up into the air within a radius of several thousand feet were reduced to tiny fragments, which continued to fly through the air as shrapnel.
The four symbol puppets had no time to take any evasive measures, and they were forced back by the tremendous force generated by E Kuai\'s stomp, while parts of their bodies began to implode one after another.
The sword-wielding golden puppet immediately hid itself behind the shield-bearing puppet, which was sent flying back through the air as it held its shield in front of itself.
Waves in excess of a hundred feet tall began to sweep over the surface of the lake of blood, sweeping toward the holy remains with immense power.
Han Li\'s brows furrowed slightly upon seeing this, and all 475 of his profound acupoints lit up as he thrust both fists forward with all his might, unleashing a dense wall of fist projections that crashed through the oncoming waves of blood.
Moments later, the commotion subsided.
The entirety of the underground cave\'s ceiling had been destroyed, fully revealing hte night sky above.
Han Li\'s fists remained clenched as he swept his gaze over the surrounding area. The four symbol puppets had already been completely decimated, while the two golden puppets were also nowhere to be seen.
Right at this moment, he suddenly spotted a delicate figure laying half-buried beneath the rubble. The black veil over her face had already fallen away, revealing her breathtakingly beautiful features, and sure enough, it was none other than Violet Spirit.
Han Li immediately rushed over to her side, then cleared away the rubble around her before lifting her up in his arms.
At this moment, Violet Spirit was in a state of unconsciousness, and her lower abdomen had been struck by a piece of rubble. Her brows were tightly furrowed in agony and blood was trickling down from the corner of her lips.
A pang of remorse speared through Han Li\'s heart at the sight of her terrible condition. If he had trusted his own instincts and identified her earlier, perhaps she wouldn\'t have had to experience this pain.
WIth that in mind, he sprang up into the air before descending onto the other side of the lake of blood.
From there, he made his way over to Mistress Liu Hua, then gently set down Violet Spirit, feeding her a pill as he requested, "Please look after her for me."
Mistress Liu Hua nodded in response with a grim look on his face, while Gu Qianxun was observing Violet Spirit with mixed emotions in her eyes.
Even though the restrictions in Shi Chuankong\'s body had already been undone, he was carrying some rather severe injuries, so he was unfit for battle.
After setting down Violet Spirit, Han Li sprang back to the other side of the lake.
Up ahead was a deep crater, at the bottom of which stood E Kuai. His skin had taken on a reddish-purple hue, and he was carrying Kun Yu by the throat as he made his way toward the lake of blood.
Kun Yu\'s dantian had already been completely destroyed, and he was as dead as dead could be.
"Everything has gone according to my plan, yet you\'ve proven to be the only volatile factor. Ever since the Weeping Blood Array, you\'ve been constantly foiling my plans. Honestly, I have a lot of appreciation for someone like you.
“If you hadn\'t resurrected the holy remains, I would\'ve been tempted to take you as my disciple, but unfortunately, you also have to die today," E Kuai said as he casually tossed Kun Yu\'s body away, and it crashed into a distant cave wall before shattering into pieces.
"I\'m truly honored that you think so highly of me, City Lord E," Han Li replied in a cold voice.
As soon as his voice trailed off, he channeled his Wingform Ascension Arts with all his might and abruptly vanished from the spot.
A cold sneer appeared on E Kuai\'s face upon seeing this, and he threw a punch in a certain direction.
Thanks to his blood-incinerating secret technique, his punches were imbued with astonishing power.
A resounding boom rang out, but as opposed to Han Li, E Kuai\'s fist had struck the shield-bearing golden puppet.
More specifically, his fist had struck the puppet\'s golden shield, and the surface of the shield immediately began to ripple like water, releasing bursts of compounding soundwaves that swept toward E Kuai.
The shield-bearing puppet was capable of using its foe\'s power against them, and as a result, it was able to counteract E Kuai\'s unfathomable power, resulting in a temporary impasse.
