Chapter 1050: Search

The Essence Fire Raven let loose another loud cry as it spread its wings and ascended with all its might, forcing back all of the rays of blue light released by the Profound Origin Iceslash Sword, following which the sword itself was also forced back into the array of blue light above.

Even after forcing back the Profound Origin Iceslash Sword, the Essence Fire Raven still refused to relent, and countless silver fireballs erupted out of its body before striking the Lan siblings' combined spirit domain, causing it to tremble violently.

Before long, a series of cracks had appeared all over the spirit domain, and shortly thereafter, the five ice sculptures within the spirit domain exploded in unison.

Immediately thereafter, the entire spirit domain faded away, but the Lan siblings were also nowhere to be seen.

Even after freeing himself from the spirit domain, Han Li's limbs were still feeling a little numb from the cold, and he made a beckoning motion, upon which the Essence Fire Raven flew back to him before perching itself on his shoulder.

A burst of warmth instantly flowed through his entire body from his shoulder, and wisps of glacial qi that were visible even to the naked eye were forced out of his skin before fading away.

He swept his gaze over the surrounding area to discover that all of the metal beasts had disappeared, and all of the cultivators that had been sent into the area with him had met their demise.

Pavilion Master Zhao had been torn to shreds by a metal beast, while Yu Kuohai had been frozen to death by the eruption of glacial qi from earlier.

Han Li patted the Essence Fire Raven on his shoulder with a grim expression, and it vanished into his body, following which he began to make his way deeper into the golden space.

It had been confirmed that those two were indeed the Lan siblings, and his cover had already been blown, so he had to hunt them down and kill them. Otherwise, if they were allowed to return to the Heavenly Court, then he would truly be in a world of trouble.

......

Meanwhile, everyone outside the stone gate was waiting for further instructions.

The sounds of battle inside had already subsided, and after waiting for a while longer, Jin Liu finally declared, "Let's go in."

All of the other cultivators exchanged some wary glances with one another upon hearing this, but none of them made a move, clearly still feeling very apprehensive.

Jin Liu's expression darkened slightly upon seeing this, and he urged, "It's been quiet in there for quite some time now, so the first group must've already taken care of the hazards up ahead. If we don't go in now, they'll claim all of the treasures inside!"

Hesitant looks appeared on everyone's faces upon hearing this, but once again, no one was willing to make a move.

Jin Liu exchanged a glance with Su Anqian, and the two of them entered through the stone gate together.

Only then did everyone follow along.

Everyone's brows instantly furrowed slightly upon making their way into the metal forcefield, but their concern and annoyance quickly turned to shock and horror as they caught sight of all of the maimed and frozen bodies that littered the ground.

"What the hell happened here?" Valley Master Fu murmured to himself with a horrified expression.

As soon as his voice trailed off, he abruptly raised his head to cast his gaze toward the top of a nearby golden pillar.

A thunderous roar rang out as a panther-like metal beast pounced down upon him with incredible speed, and it was quickly joined by more metal beasts as another horrific slaughter commenced...

The bird projection flapped its wings vigorously, thereby greatly enhancing their speed, but they were still quite a bit slower than Han Li, and before long, the gap between them had dwindled to less than ten kilometers.

"How is he this fast?" Lan Yan exclaimed as she turned to Lan Yuanzi with a slightly panicked expression.

Lan Yuanzi gritted his teeth as a decisive look appeared in his eyes, following which he gave Lan Yan a firm push, sending her flying into the distance as he yelled, "I'll hold him back, you get out of here!"

"Brother!" Lan Yan exclaimed as she immediately stabilized herself before turning around to fly back to his side.

"Get away, you idiot! Don't worry about me, I can look after myself!" Lan Yuanzi roared in a furious voice, following which he raised his hands to summon a small white flag with a blue wyrm embroidered upon it, as well as a blue bowl with fiery blue light flashing inside.

The two items flew out of his grasp, and the white flag instantly transformed into a blue and white wyrm that was over a thousand feet in length before swooping down upon Han Li while releasing an almighty breath.

Its breath was interspersed with chunks of white ice crystals that crashed against one another to produce a thunderous rumbling noise, and it was clear that anything caught within the breath would be instantly torn to shreds.

Meanwhile, the bowl was revolving in mid-air as it released a burst of glacial blue flames, which descended upon Han Li as a massive screen of blue fire, freezing all of the space in its wake.

Both the wyrm's breath and the glacial flames spanned an enormous area, instantly turning the scorching hot temperatures freezing cold.

Lan Yan stared after Lan Yuanzi with tears swimming in her eyes, but ultimately, she still did as she was told, fleeing into the distance.

In the face of the oncoming attacks, Han Li stopped in his tracks, then swept a sleeve through the air, releasing a burst of green light that swelled drastically in size before forming a pair of massive green hands that plunged into the wyrm's breath and glacial blue flames in a flash.

However, the wyrm's breath and the glacial flames abruptly vanished into thin air around a hundred feet in front of Han Li.

Further up ahead, the white flag and the blue bowl had been caught in the clutches of the giant green hands, and both were struggling with all their might to free themselves, but to no avail.

Furthermore, Lan Yuanzi was nowhere to be seen.

Han Li's brows furrowed slightly as he made a beckoning motion, and the burst of green light vanished up his sleeve alongside the pair of immortal treasures, following which he set off in pursuit of Lan Yan, who was still yet to fully disappear into the distance.

Right at this moment, the space up ahead suddenly began to quiver and rumble violently.

Immediately thereafter, numerous blue spatial rifts appeared up ahead, releasing countless rays of blue light that inundated Han Li's entire body like a flurry of turbulent waves, stopping him cold in his tracks.

Han Li's brows furrowed slightly upon seeing this, and before he had a chance to do anything, all of the surrounding blue light converged rapidly around him to form a ball of blue light that was several thousand feet in size.

Bursts of law power fluctuations were churning incessantly within the ball of blue light, compressing toward Han Li from all directions, and even with his immense physical constitution, he was momentarily rendered immobile.

However, after just a few seconds, he was able to acclimate himself to the surrounding pressure, and after scouring his surroundings momentarily with his Infernal Devilish Eyes, a translucent chain abruptly shot out of his glabella before vanishing into the nearby space in a certain direction.

A figure was dragged out of thin air, bound by the translucent chain, and it was none other than Lan Yuanzi.

At this moment, there was blinding blue light flashing over his body, giving off incredibly formidable law power fluctuations.
