Chapter 146: The Two Azure Feather Island Cultivators

The elderly man immediately raised a hand upon seeing this, releasing a burst of black light that contained a small black flag.

The small flag instantly unfurled and began to glow with dazzling black light, which formed a menacing ghostly head that chomped down onto the bolt of silver lightning.

A layer of silver runes appeared on the surface of the silver lightning, and it abruptly accelerated, vanishing into the ghostly head's mouth in a flash.

The elderly man's expression changed slightly upon hearing this, yet before he had a chance to do anything, the ghostly head exploded violently amid a resounding boom.

The bolt of lightning emerged from the other side, having shrunk down significantly, then struck the flying ark with tremendous force, causing it to explode into pieces.

Before the ark was destroyed, the two azure-robed cultivators had already taken Lu Yuqing and fled to several thousand feet away.

Meanwhile, the silver lightning in the sky flashed a few times before dissipating to reveal Han Li. His gaze roamed over the pair of azure-robed cultivators before settling on Lu Yuqing, and he was very relieved to see that even though she was bound, she was largely unharmed.

The elderly man's face had paled slightly, and he yelled, "Who are you? I'd advise you not to meddle in the business of our Azure Feather Island unless you have a death wish!"

Han Li raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, and his gaze fell upon the azure feather design on the elderly man's sleeve.

Azure Feather Island was a vastly renowned island in the Black Wind Sea, and it was one of the most powerful islands aside from Black Wind Island. Its island master, Daoist Master Azure Feather, was no less renowned than Lu Jun, having already reached the pinnacle of the mid-True Immortal Stage countless years ago, and it was anyone's guess whether he had progressed to the late-True Immortal Stage.

At the moment, Azure Feather Island was also Black Wind Island's most formidable enemy.

In particular, Azure Feather Island had been constantly recruiting other nearby powers under its wing, and it was beginning to pose a serious threat to Black Wind Island.

However, this wasn't the time to be considering such matters, and in the next instant, Han Li vanished on the spot once again amid a flash of silver lightning, not bothering to answer the elderly man's question.

In the next instant, he appeared behind the pair of azure-robed cultivators in a wraith-like manner, and silver lightning flashed all over his body as he made a grabbing motion.

A giant hand formed by silver lightning instantly appeared above the pair of cultivators before swooping down with tremendous force.

Even before the giant hand arrived, a burst of terrifying power had already come crashing down like a mountain.

All of a sudden, a series of purple devilish patterns appeared over the elderly man's exposed skin, and two balls of purplish-black devilish flames appeared before intertwining with one another, rising up to form a pillar of flames that enveloped his entire body.

A rumbling thunderclap rang out as the giant silver hand grabbed onto the fiery pillar, resulting in an eruption of silver and purple light, as well as a burst of shockwaves that swept through the air in all directions.

Ultimately, the giant lightning hand seemed to have been kept at bay.

Right at this moment, crimson light flashed from the square-faced man's body, and the 13 short crimson blades that he had already summoned rapidly swelled to over 100 feet in length, with crimson flames surging over them.

The 13 huge fiery blades shot forth through the air, striking the giant lightning hand with tremendous force and piercing deep into it.

The giant hand instantly exploded into countless arcs of silver lightning that erupted in all directions, transforming the entire surrounding area into a sea of silver lightning that was several hundred feet in size.

The pair of azure-robed cultivators were caught off guard by the shockwaves resulting from the explosion, and they involuntarily stumbled back a few steps.

However, the silver lightning and the shockwaves left Lu Yuqing completely unharmed, parting down the middle and surging past her body right as they were about to strike her.n0veluSb.c0m

Lu Yuqing had been so terrified that she had closed her eyes in fear, but her expression eased slightly as she realized that she hadn't been harmed.

Immediately thereafter, the chaotic arcs of lightning abruptly drew to a halt, then rapidly converged to form a silver lightning array around Lu Yuqing in the blink of an eye.

"Stop him!" the square-faced man exclaimed in an alarmed voice, and he swept a sleeve through the air to send a burst of crimson swordlight hurtling directly toward the lightning array.

At the same time, a burst of black and purple devilish flames shot forth from the other side, sweeping toward the lightning array as well.

However, it was already too late. Silver lightning flashed within the array, and Lu Yuqing vanished into thin air, only to instantly reappear beside Han Li with the chains of light binding her body completely gone.

The square-faced man's expression stiffened upon seeing this, while the pillar of purplish-black flames receded to reveal the elderly man.

The devilish patterns on his body made it impossible to glean his expression, but the fury in his eyes was very apparent.

Lu Yuqing was ecstatic, and a grateful look appeared on her face as she said, "Thank you for saving me! May I know your name?"

"My name is Liu Shi, and I've come to save you under instructions from your father," Han Li replied in an indifferent voice.

Lu Yuqing faltered slightly upon hearing this. "My father..."

Before she had a chance to say anything else, Han Li suddenly swept a sleeve through the air, and a silver lightning array instantly took shape around the two of them, following which they vanished from the spot amid a flash of lightning.

In the next instant, several giant fiery blades descended out of the sky, striking the spot where the two of them had just been standing.

The fiery blades naturally missed their target, and they plunged into the sea down below, causing the entire surface of the sea to boil and churn, raising a series of ferocious waves.

Han Li and Lu Yuqing were standing in mid-air not far away, and the latter had a look of lingering fear in her eyes, having only just realized what had just taken place.

"Get back," Han Li instructed.

Lu Yuqing immediately did as she was told, hurriedly flying away into the distance.

Meanwhile, the giant fiery blades arrived once again, hurtling toward Han Li from all directions to ensure that he had no course for retreat.

In response, Han Li raised both of his arms, and several thick bolts of silver lightning shot out of his palms. Countless silver lightning runes were flashing over the surfaces of the bolts of lightning, and they instantly transformed into several huge balls of silver lightning to meet the giant fiery blades.

Countless silver runes were flashing over the balls of lightning, and this was none other than the Lightningwield Technique that he had mastered back in the Spirit Realm.

Now that he possessed immortal spiritual power, he was able to unleash all types of secret techniques with a far higher degree of speed and proficiency than before.

The balls of lightning clashed with the fiery blades, resulting in an eruption of scintillating silver radiance amid a string of earth-shattering booms, and a series of rifts had appeared in the nearby space.

Immediately thereafter, several short fiery blades shot back out of the epicenter of the explosion. The spiritual light radiating from the blades had dimmed significantly, clearly indicating that they had been severely damaged, and the square-faced man stumbled back in an unsteady manner before throwing up a mouthful of blood.

All of this had taken place in the blink of an eye, and in the meantime, the purple devilish patterns on the elderly man's body had begun glowing brightly. Furthermore, a giant purplish-black devilish shadow with three heads and six arms had appeared behind him. It was impossible to make out the shadow's facial features, and the only features clearly visible were its six sinister purple eyes.

The devilish shadow threw its head back and let loose a thunderous roar, then thrust its six giant palms forward at once.

A burst of rumbling instantly rang out from the space around Han Li, following which the entire space began to collapse. Six giant inky-black vortexes then appeared out of thin air, surrounding him from all directions to ensure that he couldn't escape.

His brows furrowed slightly upon seeing this, and silver lightning flashed from his body once again as he attempted to create another lightning teleportation array.

However, right at this moment, countless streaks of black light rapidly shot out of the black vortexes, then wound themselves tightly around Han Li's body.

In the face of the streaks of black light, all of the silver lightning and the protective spiritual light around Han Li's body completely faded, and even the circulation of immortal spiritual power within his body had become very slow and sluggish.

"This is what you get for meddling with Azure Feather Island!"

A cold gleam flashed through the elderly man's eyes as he made a string of hand seals, and a huge pillar of purplish-black devilish flames erupted out of the mouth of the giant devilish shadow, then transformed into a purplish-black spear of fire.

The spear shot through the air like lightning before plunging viciously into Han Li's, then exploded violently amid an eruption of dazzling light and scorching flames.

A concerned look appeared on Lu Yuqing's face as she saw this from afar, but she chose not to flee the scene.

In contrast, both of the azure-robed cultivators were quite relieved to see that the attack had landed, but in the next instant, both of their expressions changed drastically.

As the dust settled, it was revealed that Han Li's chest remained completely unharmed, and his entire body was encompassed within a faint membrane of light that kept the black light at bay.

An incredulous look appeared on the elderly man's face, and he was able to immediately identify what this light membrane was, much to his horror and dismay.

"Run! We're no match for him!" the square-faced man yelled in a panicked voice.

Han Li gave a cold harrumph as a seven-star constellation appeared on his lower abdomen, and a burst of terrifying power erupted out of his body, causing the nearby space to rumble and shudder.

The streaks of black light around him were instantly snapped, and the six black vortexes vanished as well.

The elderly man had only just turned around to flee when the six arms of his devilish projection abruptly exploded without any warning, and the devilish projection itself also quickly dissipated moments later.

An unnatural flush appeared on the elderly man's face, and he gave a muffled groan as he stumbled unsteadily almost losing his footing in the process.

In the next instant, Han Li appeared directly behind him before throwing a vicious punch.

A suit of black devilish armor appeared over the elderly man's body amid a flash of black light, and a layer of complex array patterns was engraved onto the surface of the suit of armor, which was giving off a faint metallic sheen.

At the same time, a burst of black light appeared in his hand, yet before he had a chance to do anything else, a cold harrumph suddenly rang out beside his ears.

He immediately felt as if a sharp spike had been driven viciously into his consciousness, and he let loose an agonized howl as the black light in his hand instantly faded.

Meanwhile, Han Li's fist sped through the air before striking the suit of black devilish armor, tearing through it with ease before emerging on the other side straight through the elderly man's chest.

The elderly man's body instantly exploded into a vast cloud of blood mist amid a dull thump, and not even his nascent soul was able to escape before it was destroyed by a burst of tremendous power.
