Welcome

A little while later, a buzzing sound came from the void. A green light flashed, and a jade-green formation disc appeared in a palm, into which a spell instantly vanished.

The next moment, the joyful voice of the Wood Clan giant immediately came through:

"Brother Han, are you alright? I'm ready on my end and can activate the restriction now. Lure those Saint Ancestor avatars into the mountain range, and I will activate the great formation to trap them."

"There's no need for that much trouble. Keep that restriction for now and use it on the next wave of enemies. Everything's alright here." Han Li replied indifferently, holding the formation disc in one hand, while his other hand held a black axe, which he was examining with great interest.

This axe was none other than the demonic weapon used by the golden-armored demon earlier.

In the nearby void, there was no other figure besides Daoist Xie and the heavily scarred spirit body.

However, the ground within a hundred miles was riddled with pits and craters everywhere, with not a single spot remaining intact.

It was clear that a much fiercer battle had just erupted here not long ago.

"What? Brother Han, do you mean...?" After a moment of silence from the formation disc, the astonished and uncertain voice of the Wood Clan giant finally sounded, clearly disbelieving.

"Those Saint Ancestor avatars have already been dealt with by Brother Xie and me, working together. The restriction you're controlling should naturally be kept." Han Li flicked his hand, and the black axe in his hand instantly vanished into a blur, as he replied with a light chuckle.

In the battle just now, he and Daoist Xie had easily defeated the three demons, including the golden-armored giant, by working together.

However, since all three were determined to escape, it took considerable effort to truly eliminate them one by one.

"Brother Han and Brother Xie's divine abilities are truly beyond my imagination. But this way, our Number Two formation eye is absolutely secure." The Wood Clan giant was ecstatic upon hearing this, and the voice coming from the formation disc unconsciously carried a hint of reverence.

Clearly, the strength Han Li displayed made this Wood Clan Body Integration cultivator no longer dare to treat him as an ordinary peer; his words now implicitly carried a trace of awe.

Han Li smiled slightly, just about to reply through the formation disc, when a series of muffled thunderclaps suddenly came from high in the sky. White light flashed wildly in the void all around, and waves of fluctuations swept in from a certain direction on the horizon, passing by him within a few blinks.

Almost simultaneously, a low cry from the Wood Clan giant also came from the formation disc.

The smile on Han Li's lips froze. His gaze flickered for a moment before he slowly transmitted his voice to the formation disc, asking:

"Fellow Daoist Cao, did that strange phenomenon just now mean that Formation Eye Number One was also destroyed?"

"Brother Han, you guessed correctly. The backup Sacred Tree indicates that Formation Eye Number One was indeed destroyed. Those Demon Saint Ancestors truly attacked all three formation eyes simultaneously." The somewhat bitter voice of the Wood Clan giant came from the formation disc.

"This is to be expected. I suppose a second batch of guests will visit us here soon." Han Li replied with a cold sneer.

"Brother Han, you and Fellow Daoist Xie should come back and rest for a bit. If other Saint Ancestor avatars truly come looking for us, it might still require you two, Brother Han, to resist them. It's better to recover as much magic power as possible now." After pondering for a moment, the Wood Clan giant transmitted his voice thus.

"That makes sense. Fellow Daoist Xie and I will go back and rest now." Han Li's eyes flashed, and he nodded in willing agreement.

So he said no more. He put away the formation disc in his hand, and, calling out to Daoist Xie, ascended into the air.

The two instantly transformed into two long rainbows, breaking through the air and flying directly towards the center of the mountain range.

Below the void where they had been, the ground suddenly erupted with green light, and the originally damaged earth instantly became verdant, covered by countless green grasses and bushes.

Countless trees within it grew wildly at a visible speed, transforming back into towering trees hundreds of feet tall, covering all traces on the ground.

A short half-day later, in the void tens of thousands of miles away from the mountain range, a sudden "rumbling" sound erupted loudly. A black line flashed across the horizon and vanished, as boundless black qi surged out and rolled directly towards the mountain range.

Within this awe-inspiring black qi, a small, mountain-like hall, as black as ink, was faintly concealed.

On a platform at the top of the hall, seven demon men and women, dressed in various attires, stood side by side in a row, continuously conversing in low voices.

Each of these seven individuals exuded an extremely powerful aura, clearly indicating they were not ordinary Demon Lords.

"Those Old Geezer She and his group are truly useless! Both of our groups succeeded smoothly, but they went and there's been no news at all. Now they've made us have to make an extra trip." A tall demon man, emitting faint blue light, grumbled discontentedly.

"In terms of true strength, Fellow Daoist She and his five companions are probably not much inferior to us seven. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been allowed to form their own group and handle this formation eye alone. As for not having succeeded yet, they've most likely been trapped by some powerful restriction." A graceful woman in palace attire replied with a light chuckle.

"Hmph, both our group and Fellow Daoist Sha's group easily dealt with things. Only Old Geezer She's group ran into trouble, which is naturally due to those five being useless." The tall demon rolled his eyes as he spoke, clearly indicating he didn't get along with "Old Geezer She."

"If those five were truly just trapped, that would be good. But let's hope they didn't encounter some powerful enemy and all met with misfortune. If that's the case, we seven will also need to be extra careful." An old man with a head full of yellow hair said coldly.

"That's impossible. With their five divine abilities, as long as they didn't encounter an existence at the Mahayana stage, they should at least be able to protect themselves. As for being unable to contact them, it's most likely the effect of the restrictions here; that's not too strange." The woman in palace attire said with a light chuckle, appearing unconcerned.

"Regardless, whoever is defending this formation eye, if they could stop Old Geezer She's group, they likely have some tricks up their sleeves. It's always wise for us to be a little cautious." The yellow-haired old man continued expressionlessly.

"Since Old Ji has said so, we will naturally be more careful." Someone among the other demons replied casually.

Most of the other demons also nodded in agreement.

The yellow-haired old man nodded, just as he was about to give a few more instructions, but his expression suddenly changed the next moment. He sharply raised his head, his gaze sweeping towards the high sky.

"What is it, Old Ji? Did you find something?" The other demons naturally found this strange, and the tall demon couldn't help but ask.

But before the yellow-haired old man could answer, an incredibly terrifying fluctuation suddenly appeared high in the sky. Under a flash of green light, a hazy green light screen strangely emerged, and in a fleeting moment, it transformed into a gigantic, sky-covering net that descended downwards. "No good, quickly dodge!"

The yellow-haired old man's expression changed. He let out a loud shout, simultaneously rolling on the ground and transforming into a giant yellow-feathered eagle. It flapped its wings fiercely, turning into a ball of yellow light, breaking through the air and flying away from the hall.

The other six demons were equally shocked and likewise soared into the air, employing escape techniques and scattering in all directions.

The green screen high in the sky covered an area of a hundred mu. Its descent was as fast as lightning; after a single flash, it swept up all the black qi below, drawing it into itself. Moreover, four of the demons failed to escape in time and were trapped together within the green screen.

The three elders who escaped hastily activated their escape light and circled back. Their auras surged dramatically without a word, intending to launch an attack and rescue their trapped companions.

But the descending light screen instantly flared with brilliant light, and as the light flickered, it transformed into an incomparably huge sphere of light. With a long cry, it soared into the sky, vanishing fleetingly into the high sky.

The three demons outside were startled at first, but then immediately rose in great anger, preparing to pursue closely with their escape light.

But at this moment, after the high sky subtly fluctuated again, two figures, one green and one golden, strangely flickered into existence, directly blocking the three demons' path of escape.

The three demons, including the yellow-haired old man, were startled and immediately swept their gazes towards the two figures with wary expressions.

The green figure was none other than Han Li, who had crossed through space. After also glancing at the three demons, he calmly spoke first:

"Since you three luckily escaped the restriction, I'll send you on your way first. Don't worry, once you three are dealt with, we'll naturally send your companions on their way too. We definitely won't let you feel lonely."

As soon as his words fell, Han Li suddenly slapped the top of his head with one hand, and a dazzling golden Nascent Soul immediately flew out from it. Then, with a clear cry from his body, five more clusters of golden light flew out, directly transforming into five phantom images, about ten feet tall, of a giant ape, a colorful phoenix, a silver roc, a peacock, and a golden dragon, which continuously revolved around him.

The Nascent Soul, without hesitation, beckoned with its small hand in all directions!

The five true spirit phantom images flashed and vanished, entering the Nascent Soul's body one after another.

A loud rumble!

Blinding golden light erupted from the light-golden Nascent Soul's body. And when the golden light receded, Han Li and the Nascent Soul simultaneously vanished, replaced by a tall, demonic figure.

This figure was resplendent with golden light all over. Both its skin and face were covered by a layer of faint golden scales. A single green horn grew on its head, and a jet-black demonic eye strangely appeared between its brows.

Han Li had actually directly activated his cultivation technique, performing the first stage of the Nirvana Sacred Body transformation.

As for Daoist Xie beside him, after a clap of thunder from his body, he also revealed his hundred-foot-long giant crab true form amidst countless interwoven silver arcs.

The three demons below witnessed this scene, and their expressions instantly turned extremely ugly!

Several hours later, the location of the Wood Realm Great Formation's Number One formation eye was already completely covered by surging demonic qi. Below, countless demon armored soldiers could be faintly seen, neatly arranged in dense rows.

Above this demon army, high-ranking demons were exchanging grim glances with one another.

"Fellow Daoist Ji and his group have actually lost contact too! It seems there's really a problem with Formation Eye Number Two. Otherwise, with two groups of fellow daoists going there, it's impossible for no news to have come back." A young demon, dressed in exquisite black battle armor, slowly said.
