Zhu Guo'er, who was standing beside him, looked utterly dumbfounded, her mouth agape and unable to close for a long time. Evidently, the young woman had never imagined that as soon as Han Li escaped the formation, he would immediately turn hostile and have the Golden Giant Crab launch such an astonishing attack.

Witnessing this, Han Li offered a faint smile and spoke to the Golden Giant Crab: "Thank you for your intervention, Brother Crab. Without you, someone else wouldn't have been able to discern the weakest point of this Six-Fiend Green Thunder Formation, nor could they have made such an effective strike in one go."

"If it were the complete Six-Fiend Green Thunder Formation, or if I were inside it, I wouldn't be able to do this either. In the current situation, it was merely a trifle. However, after this move, just ensure I receive my spirit liquid offerings," the Golden Giant Crab droned, sounding nonchalant.

"Don't worry, Brother Crab, no matter how many times you intervene, I will certainly replenish every single drop for you," Han Li replied with a light chuckle.

"Regardless of how much spirit liquid you can provide in the future, I will cease my assistance the moment the accumulated uses from your previous offerings are exhausted," the Golden Giant Crab stated bluntly.

"Alright, since you're unwilling to be flexible, we'll stick to our previous agreement. However, the previous offerings should be enough for you to assist me wholeheartedly for a while," Han Li said with a wry, helpless smile, feeling somewhat resigned. No matter how spiritual the Golden Giant Crab appeared, any discussion involving the mysterious green liquid provided to it would make it extraordinarily rigid, leaving no room for flexibility.

This time, the Golden Giant Crab said nothing more, merely staring coolly at the void below. At this moment, the breach in the formation that had been penetrated was rapidly closing, returning to its original state. From afar, the area below turned blue again, and the mist sea that had just appeared receded once more.

Just then, a ripple appeared beside the flying chariot, a flash of pink light, and a graceful figure silently materialized. Her face was pale; it was Bao Hua. The moment she appeared, she merely glanced at Han Li, then without a word, pulled out a fiery red small bottle, quickly poured out an emerald green pill, and swallowed it. But before Han Li could even raise an eyebrow to speak to her, the scenery in the sky below abruptly changed. The illusionary barrier that had been concealing everything vanished in a flash, replaced by a rolling sea of white mist.

Almost simultaneously, two angry roars erupted from the mist sea. A golden and a blue figure, with just a flicker, suddenly appeared above the mist sea. When the two figures solidified and became clear again, the blue-robed woman and the young woman appeared. However, their gazes at Han Li were, one, profoundly gloomy, and the other, filled with malevolence.

"Good, very good! I was going to let you off earlier, but I never imagined you'd seek your own demise!" the young woman spat out each word. Then, without hesitation, she tossed the silver Buddha in her hand high into the sky. It transformed back into a silver Buddha over ten zhang tall. With a single hand sealing a spell, black demonic flames suddenly surged around her body, solidifying into a black demonic beast behind her that resembled neither an ox nor a horse. This demonic beast was entirely composed of dark black flames, with a pair of thick, curved horns on its head and countless strands of black demonic flames forming a long mane on its neck. From a distance, it looked majestic and awe-inspiring.

On the other side, the blue-robed woman's face was chillingly cold, and she didn't want to say another word to Han Li. She rubbed her hands together, and suddenly streaks of blue light billowed out from her body. Then, with a flash of crystal light, a massive ice mountain, hundreds of zhang tall, emerged centered around her. The blue giant turtle beneath her feet also let out a deep growl, then its body rapidly swelled, transforming in the blue light into a colossal creature no smaller than the ice mountain. After its eyes flashed with blood-red light, it emitted a terrifying aura no less powerful than that of a late-stage Integration cultivator.

Seeing this, Han Li dared not delay. With a clear cry, his body burst forth with golden light, and he directly transformed into a golden-furred giant ape six or seven zhang tall. Then, with a grab in the air, two colossal mountains, one green and one black, eerily appeared in his hands. At the same time, after golden and emerald light flickered on both sides, two other tall figures appeared simultaneously. One was dazzling golden, and the other wore a dark green robe, but their faces were identical to Han Li's true form. These were the materialized Brahma Saint Golden Body and the Spirit Body of the Ganoderma Immortal.

Han Li was confident that after his physical body's transformation by the Spirit Cleansing Pond and the Spirit Cleansing Lotus, with the aid of his two avatars, dealing with one Ancestral avatar would be more than enough. As for Ancestor Lan Pu, he naturally entrusted her to the Golden Sacred Crab to deal with. He didn't expect the giant crab, having left the Demonic Source Sea, to easily kill a seasoned Ancestor, but containing the opponent should be no problem.

After a thunderclap from the Golden Giant Crab's body, dense silver electrical arcs instantly shot out. Its two massive pincers swayed slightly, and after two "boom" sounds, two gigantic golden orbs of light emerged between its pincers, emitting an astonishing hum. Although the light orbs had not yet been launched, the terrifying power emanating from them caused both Ancestor Lan Pu and the other person's expressions to change slightly upon sensing it from a distance. Their previously prepared attacks froze, and for a moment, they were extremely apprehensive and did not immediately make a move.

"Both of you, have you thought this through? Do you truly want a major battle with Han Qi here? Regardless of the outcome of this battle, I don't think either of you seniors will have much chance of keeping Senior Bao Hua here," a booming voice came from the mouth of the giant ape Han Li had transformed into, and he intentionally or unintentionally turned his head to glance at Bao Hua. It was unknown what kind of spirit pill Bao Hua had just swallowed! With just this brief moment of respite, a faint blush appeared on her cheeks, and the spiritual power fluctuations on her body also recovered somewhat.

"Even if there's only a one percent chance, we two will try. Junior, if you don't want to needlessly take a calamity for others, it's still not too late to stop now. As long as you turn and leave, I will not only not pursue the previous events, but I can also send word to Yuan Yan to temporarily withdraw the pursuit against you, allowing you to safely return to the Spirit Realm. Otherwise, even if you can preserve your life in the current battle, this Ancestor will certainly be included in any future pursuit orders against you," the young woman roared, her eyebrows raised in anger.

"Stopping is impossible. Since I've made my move, there's no reason to give up halfway. As for the pursuit orders against me, since Yuan Yan is already after me, I'm not afraid of one more," the giant ape rumbled, blue light flashing in its eyes. He had already decided to return to the Spirit Realm soon, so he naturally no longer cared about the opponent's threats, even if the opponent was another great ancestor of the Demon Realm. Moreover, with his current divine abilities, even if he couldn't defeat the opponent's true body, he still had a certain degree of confidence in preserving his life and escaping.

"Very good, since you truly intend to interfere in this matter, I'll have to sacrifice this avatar to keep you here. Sister Lan, you first trap the Golden Sacred Crab, and I will use secret techniques to entangle the others. Then, once your several avatars arrive, we'll go all out to kill them," the young woman said loudly to Ancestor Lan Pu after a flash of malevolence crossed her face.

"Good, I was just thinking the same. In at most the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, my several avatars and subordinates will arrive," Ancestor Lan Pu coldly agreed. Without any further hesitation, she raised her two arms within the ice mountain and slowly pushed them towards the Golden Giant Crab.

With a crisp "bang"! The entire ice mountain shattered into specks of blue light, then vanished in the void in a flash. The next moment, specks of blue light appeared out of thin air around the Golden Giant Crab. After a flash, a crystalline ice mountain silently materialized again, perfectly trapping the Golden Giant Crab within. Meanwhile, the blue giant turtle beneath her feet also opened its large mouth and spewed out a stream of white gas. With a blur, the white gas rapidly coiled around the surface of the ice mountain like a rope for several turns, clearly encompassing the Golden Giant Crab within its bounds. Ancestor Lan Pu actually intended not to engage the Golden Giant Crab in direct combat, but rather to temporarily trap it in one place.

The young woman also activated a spell. The silver Buddha in front of her swelled, and its two large hands clapped separately towards the giant ape Han Li had transformed into and Bao Hua. The black flame monster behind her opened its mouth wide, and rolling black flames transformed into a hundred-zhang-tall wall of fire, rushing upwards. In an instant, Bao Hua and the giant ape were beneath the black wall of fire.

Witnessing this, Han Li let out a cold snort. The two colossal mountains in the giant ape's hands flashed with light, ready to be thrown into the air. At the same time, his two avatars beside him, with continuous flashes of radiant light around them, also appeared focused and ready to make a move to resist.

But just then, Bao Hua, who had shown no expression until now, suddenly let out a faint, mournful sigh! "What's the point!"

Before the sigh ended, the white-robed woman lightly pushed her jade hand forward, and with a gentle puff from her cherry lips, a ball of pink light surprisingly emerged. Upon closer inspection, the light orb was composed of countless rice-grain-sized runes. After a gentle rotation, it suddenly burst open on its own. In an instant, countless runes, like pink flower petals, swirled and danced nearby, flashing wildly and brilliantly. In the center, a wisp of emerald green light flashed, then blurred, directly transforming into an emerald green sapling about a foot tall, which continued to grow rapidly at a visible speed.

In the space of a single breath, a large emerald green tree formed in Bao Hua's hand. Its roots had become one with Bao Hua's palm, its branches and leaves were exceptionally green, and crystalline light flowed unstably, seemingly continuously drawing spiritual power from within her body. Simultaneously, the emerald green tree suddenly blurred, and points of pink light appeared on its branches. In the next moment, they transformed into clusters of pink flower buds, instantly covering the entire tree. A rich floral fragrance instantly permeated the entire space.

Following this, Sanskrit sounds faintly echoed throughout the vast void. Everywhere were clusters of flower shadows, and the space within a thousand zhang radius became a pink ocean, as if it had become a self-contained world. Even more incredibly, whether it was the ice mountain, the white gas, the silver palm, or the wall of fire, all immediately dissipated and vanished in the void, enveloped in pink light, after Bao Hua formed a single-hand seal and uttered the word "Disperse."

"Profound Heaven Spirit Domain!" The young woman's heart sank, and she uttered these words, her face filled with an expression of disbelief.
