A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Immortal Realm
Chapter 1060: Divine Lightning to the RescueRight as the ghostly creatures reached roughly a thousand feet away from everyone, an azure light barrier rose up from the bodies of Valley Master Fu and the others amid a loud draconic roar.
A series of azure dragon projections were roaming over the light barrier, which was releasing dazzling radiance that pierced straight into the dark clouds above.
As soon as the ghostly creatures crashed into the azure light barrier, a chorus of bloodcurdling howls instantly rang out.
The light barrier was flashing incessantly as the ghostly creatures that crashed into it began to disintegrate into plumes of black smoke amid a loud sizzling sound.
However, these ghostly creatures hadn't tasted living human flesh for countless years, and they had already been driven completely insane, so they continued to throw themselves at the azure light barrier without any regard for self-preservation.
Meanwhile, Han Li continued to act as a passive observer.
Jin Liu was furious to see this, and he yelled, "What are you doing? If you're not going to help, then don't expect us to protect you!"
Han Li paid no heed to Jin Liu as he remained standing still on the spot, looking up at the dark clouds above with a contemplative expression.
High up in the sky, the Heavenly Water Sect cultivators were locked in battle against the ten ghostly generals.
In contrast with all of the ghostly creatures down below, these ghostly generals possessed astonishing cultivation bases. Most of them possessed peak-Golden Immortal Stage powers, and their cultivation arts were extremely obscure and peculiar, granting a wide range of unpredictable abilities.The scholarly man was the most powerful one among them, possessing mid-High Zenith Stage power, and his robe was extremely peculiar, seeming with two entire worlds contained within its sleeves.
Right at this moment, a vast expanse of black light erupted out of his left sleeve before crashing down upon Su Anqian, who was wielding an intricate blue fan, which she waved through the air to release a burst of light that created an enormous rift in the space before her.
At the same time, there was a green river embroidered onto the fan, and it abruptly vanished without any warning.
The sound of turbulent, flowing water rang out from the spatial rift as an enormous river came gushing out from within, crashing toward the scholarly man.
In response, a mocking sneer appeared on the scholarly man's face, and the black light surging out of his sleeve transformed into an enormous black vortex that began devouring the flowing river.
There seemed to be no end to the river that was gushing out of the spatial rift, but there also seemed to be no end to the black vortex's voracious appetite, resembling a bottomless abyss that could never be filled.
As the river flowed into the scholarly man's left sleeve, it came gushing back out of his right sleeve toward Su Anqian, but in the process, it had become severely contaminated with blood and floating corpses.
Su Anqian's expression changed slightly upon seeing this, and the spatial rift began releasing a burst of tremendous suction force at her behest, sucking in the river that the scholarly man was using against her.
Moments later, the entire river had been sucked back into the spatial rift, following which the spatial rift itself also faded away.
The embroidered river then reappeared on the fan in Su Anqian's hand, but it had become contaminated with filth and was looking nowhere near as clear and pure as before.
At the same time, wisps of black baleful qi began rising up from the fan.
All of a sudden, a hint of alarm appeared in her eyes as a burst of glacial qi erupted out of the fan, and the river on the fan was also enshrouded in a layer of white light before freezing solid.
"That's a nice fan. It'll be even better once I take it from you and cast a hundred thousand yin souls into that river to refine it into an infernal river. On top of that, I'm also missing a concubine, and a pretty little lady like you will do just fine," the scholarly man chuckled in a sinister manner.
A hint of killing intent flashed through Su Anqian's eyes upon hearing this, and a blue longsword appeared in her other hand amid a flash of blue light, following which she launched herself at the scholarly man.
A cold sneer appeared on the scholarly man's face upon seeing this, and their battle recommenced.
On the other side, Jin Liu was wielding a pair of dragon spears as he fought against two of the ghostly generals.
One of them had the body of a human, but the head of a cow, and they were holding a crimson spirit beckoning banner. With each wave of the banner, gusts of yin wind were released, and whenever the yin wind came into contact with Jin Liu, he would feel wisps of soul power being sucked out of his body. 𝖗𝘢Νǒ₿Ё𝙨
The other ghostly general also had a human body, but the hideous face of a horse, and they were holding a black chain with unintelligible yin runes engraved upon it. Bursts of green flames that were filled with tremendous baleful qi were rising up from the chain, capable of rapidly decaying flesh and bone upon contact.
These two ghostly generals were both at the early-High Zenith Stage, and one was attacking from afar, while the other engaged Jin Liu in close quarters combat, forming a very troublesome duo that even Jin Liu was struggling to deal with.
This entire third level resembled a giant spirit domain for these ghostly creatures, so everyone was at an innate disadvantage here, and the Heavenly Water Sect cultivators were clearly struggling despite their numbers advantage.
Meanwhile, Han Li was standing in the Azure Dragon Origin Array with a hesitant look on his face.
He knew that the longer this battle wore on, the more detrimental the situation would become for everyone.
On top of that, as soon as he entered this place, he had been struck by the feeling that he was being watched by a pair of eyes high up within the dark clouds above.
These ten ghostly generals proclaimed themselves to be the Ten Kings of Hell, but they weren't the most powerful beings in this space. Instead, the biggest threat here was lurking up above, and for some reason, they refused to show themselves.
With that in mind, Han Li also decided to refrain from taking part in the battle, choosing to observe the unfolding situation for now.
Right at this moment, a burst of thunderous rumbling suddenly rang out from the Hall of Heavenly Kings, and the entire roof of the hall was flung up into the air.
As it turned out, the two heavenly king statues inside had sprung to life, and they tore their way out of the hall before marching toward the plaza.
One of the heavenly king statues hurled the bloody head in its hand through the air, sending it crashing down onto the Azure Dragon Origin Array like a giant boulder.
A burst of mountainous force instantly came crashing down upon the array, almost shattering it instantly.
Everyone that was powering the array instantly shuddered as they each threw up a mouthful of blood, while the array itself began to sway unsteadily, and the azure dragon projections roaming over its surface also took on a more illusory appearance.
All of the ghostly creatures swarming onto the array instantly erupted into an excited frenzy upon seeing this, and at this rate, the array wasn't going to be able to hold itself intact for much longer.
Han Li could see that the other heavenly statue had already raised the vajra pestle in its hand, motioning as if it were going to hurl the pestle at the array as well.
In its current condition, there was no way that the array would be able to withstand another heavy blow, and with that in mind, Han Li heaved an internal sigh as he swept a sleeve through the air.
If you're not going to reveal yourself, then I'll just have to force your hand!
Eighteen streaks of golden light flew out of his sleeve in rapid succession, then pierced into the ground surrounding the Azure Dragon Origin Array, revealing themselves to be eighteen Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords.
Valley Master Fu and the others immediately turned to Han Li with bewildered expressions upon seeing this, and they were even more perplexed by the fact that nothing else happened after the flying swords pierced into the ground.
The ghostly creatures outside the array paid no heed to this at all as they continued to converge from all directions, quickly burying the Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords beneath them.
The weakened array wasn't able to eradicate these ghostly creatures as quickly as before, and they piled up higher and higher, finally inundating the entire array.
The heavenly king statue lowered its vajra pestle upon seeing this, seemingly deeming it no longer necessary to hurl the pestle at the array.
Su Anqian heaved a forlorn sigh upon seeing this.
"Don't worry about them, we need to focus on the task at hand," Jin Liu yelled with a grim expression.
All of a sudden, eighteen extraordinarily thick pillars of lightning erupted into the heavens from the plaza below, sending countless arcs of lightning flashing through the air in all directions.
Huge clouds of black mist rose up into the air as countless ghostly creatures were eradicated by the golden lightning, and a stunned look appeared in Su Anqian's eyes as she exclaimed, "This is Divine Devilbane Lightning!"
