Chapter 390: Ghostly Head

Chapter 390: Ghostly Head

Han Li's expression changed slightly upon seeing this, and he pointed a finger forward.

Arcs of golden lightning sprang out of all of the giant azure swords once again, instantly shattering the black ice crystals clinging to the swords to restore them to their former state.

However, instead of unleashing more attacks, Han Li drew to a halt as he cast his gaze forward with a grim look on his face.

Right at this moment, the vast expanse of black mist up ahead churned violently, following which a massive black shadow flew out from within.

It was traveling at an incredible speed, yet it wasn't making any sound at all, and it arrived near Han Li in the blink of an eye.n.)0velb1n

Before Han Li had a chance to react, a giant trident with black mist swirling around it emerged from the black shadow before being swung down at him with mountainous force.

Is it not a yin beast?

Han Li hurriedly made a hand seal, and the dozen or so giant azure swords around him instantly rose up into the air to form a uniform net above his head.

At the same time, a series of thick arcs of golden lightning appeared over the swords.

An earth-shattering boom rang out as the trident struck the net of swords with astonishing power, almost shattering the sword net in a single blow.

Arcs of Divine Devilbane Lightning erupted out of the swords to strike the trident, scattering much of the black mist around it, but the trident itself remained completely unmoved.

Han Li let loose a low roar as he prepared to make another hand seal, but right at this moment, the trident shuddered before releasing three bursts of inky-black flames out of its three tips, and those flames instantly spread through the air to envelop the sword net while giving off a glacial aura.

Black ice crystals instantly began to appear on the giant azure swords once again, and even the arcs of golden lightning surging over the swords were frozen solid, presenting a peculiar sight to behold.

All of a sudden, the trident swiveled around with tremendous force, instantly shattering the sword net and sending the dozen or so giant azure swords flying in all directions.

The trident then pierced viciously toward Han Li as fast as lightning, and it was upon him in the blink of an eye.

A vast expanse of black flames erupted out of the trident, forming a giant black draconic head the size of a house, and it opened its mouth up wide in an attempt to swallow Han Li whole.

All of this had taken place in the blink of an eye, and it was already too late for Han Li to take evasive measures.

In this dire situation, he let loose a low roar as 18 specks of starlight appeared over his chest and abdomen, and at the same time, he thrust both fists upward with all his might.

Two starry fist projections that were several dozen feet in size erupted into the heavens to clash against the trident with another earth-shattering boom, sending violent tremors surging through the surrounding space.

Han Li's entire body shuddered, and he was sent flying back over 1,000 feet before managing to steady himself. He then turned to discover that the fiery black draconic head had faded, revealing the trident inside, which had also fallen still.

The massive black shadow controlling the trident also shuddered slightly, seemingly having been struck by some recoil from the clash.

Han Li took a deep breath to suppress the churning blood and energy in his body, and an extremely grim look had appeared on his face.

Han Li immediately took evasive measures, but the black threads were too fast, and a small gash was inflicted onto his shoulder.

However, not a single drop of blood flowed out of the gash. Instead, wisps of black qi emerged instead.

Han Li immediately made a beckoning motion to draw one of the nearby Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords back to himself, following which the sword cut viciously into his shoulder, severing the gash along with a large chunk of the flesh connected to it.

As soon as the chunk of flesh was severed, the black qi instantly transformed into black flames that incinerated the piece of flesh into ashes.

Han Li's expression darkened even further upon seeing this.

If he had reacted even just a little slower than he had just now, the injuries that he sustained would've most likely been far more severe.

Meanwhile, the black flames around the giant ghostly head churned, indicating that it was about to unleash some other type of attack, but before it could do so, Han Li made a hand seal, and all of the scattered Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords nearby immediately began to glow radiantly again.

At the same time, thick arcs of lightning sprang out of the swords, then intertwined to form a giant golden lightning net in front of the ghostly head.

Right at this moment, around a dozen huge tentacles suddenly shot out of the black mist around the giant ghostly head before sweeping toward the golden lightning net up ahead.

However, as soon as these misty tentacles came into contact with the lightning net, they immediately disintegrated into plumes of black smoke.

The ghostly head let loose a furious roar, but it was unable to break through the lightning net in a short time.

Han Li heaved an internal sigh of relief upon seeing this. He had unleashed all of the Divine Devilbane Lightning in his Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords at once, and that was finally enough to keep the ghostly head at bay for now.

Immediately thereafter, he swept a sleeve through the air to stow away all of his Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords, following which he transformed into a giant silver bird with arcs of silver lightning flashing all over its body.

This was none other than his Lightning Bird transformation, and as soon as he adopted this form, a second pair of translucent wings appeared on his back.

Those were none other than his Thunderstorm Wings, and with a flap of all four wings at once, Han Li instantly vanished from the spot amid a flash of lightning.

There were unknown dangers littered throughout the Soul Stirring Winds, so he didn't dare to unleash his lightning movement techniques prior to this, but in the face of an insurmountable enemy like this one, he had no choice but to take the risk.

The giant ghostly head let loose a furious, and the surrounding black mist instantly converged toward it, causing the black flames around its body to rear up violently.

All of a sudden, the ghostly head also vanished into thin air.

Meanwhile, the Lightning Bird had only just appeared somewhere far away amid a flash of lightning when a burst of spatial fluctuations emerged not far behind it, following which the giant ghostly head appeared, enshrouded within a vast expanse of black flames.

As soon as the ghostly head appeared, it immediately opened its mouth to release three more black threads that shot forth toward the Lightning Bird at an astonishing speed.

The Lightning Bird hurriedly flew through the air as a bolt of silver lightning, just barely evading the black threads before vanishing once again.

The giant ghostly head began cackling with glee, like a predator stalking its prey, as it also vanished into thin air.

After that, Han Li continued to flee through the Soul Stirring Winds while the giant ghostly head gave chase, and no matter what Han Li did to try and escape, even resorting to his lightning teleportation array at one point, the giant ghostly head remained hot on his heels.
