Chapter 392: 曲魂 Demon Might

A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Volumes 3 and 4 – Winds Rise Overseas

Han Li and Qu Hun hurriedly flew out from Little Whirling Island. However, just as they were flying away on their artifacts, Han Li's expression suddenly darkened, and he brought the Divine Wind Boat to a halt.

"Stop hiding, come out!" Han Li said calmly, looking straight ahead.

"Oh!" A surprised sound came from the empty air.

Then, various colorful lights flashed, and seven or eight Foundation Establishment cultivators revealed themselves not far ahead.

"Han Li, it has been exposed that you and that cultivator surnamed Qu killed Junior Brother Mao and other cultivators under the Tail Star Island Master's command for the Dustfall Pill. Now, we, the enforcement cultivators, have been ordered by Island Master Mu to apprehend you and hand you over to Island Master Zhan Tai for judgment. You should surrender quickly!" shouted one of the late-Foundation Establishment cultivators among them, as soon as he appeared, addressing Han Li proudly.

To conceal their true strength, Han Li and Qu Hun had always kept their cultivation levels hidden. This led these individuals to misjudge their cultivation, which is why they appeared so careless.

Although they were somewhat surprised that Han Li had detected their presence in advance, causing their ambush to fail, with their numbers and cultivation levels, dealing with one Qi Condensation and one Foundation Establishment cultivator would be a walk in the park! Therefore, they didn't take it much to heart and decided to simply charge forward.

Han Li calmly scanned the group of them before saying faintly: "Are you cultivators from Kui Star Island? You say I killed other cultivators; do you have any evidence?"

Upon hearing this, the white-haired elder who had spoken was momentarily stunned. But then he sneered.

"What, with Elder Miao of Sixfold Palace testifying, are you still trying to quibble? Don't harbor any illusions! Island Master Mu has already given orders: you two are exceptionally cunning; upon discovery, immediately cripple your cultivation first!"

As these words left his mouth, Han Li's expression subtly changed, and a layer of coldness settled on his face as he spoke.

"Cripple our cultivation? Does Island Master Mu not intend to let us explain ourselves?"

"Heh heh! You've been guiltily fleeing for several years; the evidence is already conclusive. What more is there to explain? Everyone, move! Quickly apprehend these two and return to claim your reward!" The white-haired elder's eyes widened. He impatiently turned his head and instructed the others.

Instantly, these cultivators moved into action without a word. Numerous artifacts of various kinds were simultaneously summoned, and colorful rays of light fiercely flew towards Han Li.

Han Li's eyelid twitched. This posture was clearly not meant to merely apprehend him and cripple his cultivation. Looking at the vicious glint in their eyes, it was evident they intended to kill him in one fell swoop.

Although he didn't know if there were any ulterior motives, Han Li couldn't help but feel a surge of murderous intent.

"Qu Hun, kill them! Don't let a single one escape!" Han Li's voice was not loud, but it was exceedingly cold.

Qu Hun, who had been standing silently behind him, took a step forward. An astonishing crimson light erupted from his body, and his entire being instantly transformed into an intensely dazzling ball of light.

After a low roar, a yellow light flashed beneath Qu Hun's feet. He then charged directly at the group of artifacts.
