Chapter 906: Double Cauldrons

Volume 6: Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure – A Mortal's Journey to Immortality

A loud "crackling" sound erupted as silver threads plunged into the ice wall. Immediately, a dense array of tiny holes appeared on its surface, riddling it completely and making it look as if it would be destroyed at any moment.

Seeing this, Han Li silently raised a hand, sending a spell forward.

Purple light continuously flowed over the ice wall, emitting astonishing cold energy. Not only did the damaged areas instantly recover, but the previously rampant silver threads were also covered in a thick layer of purple ice, frozen motionless in a flash.

Not only that, but in the blink of an eye, the cold energy transformed into purple ice flames, rapidly spreading along the silver threads towards the handkerchief-shaped magic treasure, like countless slender purple snakes fiercely lunging forward.

The silver-robed woman’s expression changed.

“What kind of cultivation art is this? It’s so powerful!”

The woman was surprised, but her movements were not slow at all. She formed hand seals with both hands, elegantly pointing a jade finger at the handkerchief suspended before her. The silver silkworm image on it opened its mouth again, and a scorching white flame erupted, flowing along the silver threads from its mouth, also transforming into countless fire snakes that directly met the purple flames.

The two types of flames, ice and fire, collided in the middle of the silver threads. As soon as they met, purple and white colors intertwined. However, after a moment, the purple flames clearly gained the upper hand, forcing the white flames to retreat steadily.

Seeing this, the silver-robed woman couldn't help but frown slightly. She whispered a few words in an ancient language, and immediately, the Heavenly Azure Sacred Beast beneath her let out a low roar. A hazy green flame spewed from its mouth, joining the white flames.

The green and white flames merged and converged, actually resisting the ice flame's attack for a time.

The silver-robed woman then raised a jade hand, and an octagonal iron plate appeared between her fingers. She tossed it into the sky, and the iron plate instantly transformed into a giant Bagua diagram, creating scorching red flames out of thin air that crashed down towards Han Li.

Han Li’s mouth twitched slightly. His face remained expressionless. But behind him, with a clap of thunder, a pair of silver wings emerged.

As the Bagua diagram descended, his figure flickered slightly. Then, amidst flashing silver arcs, he suddenly vanished from his original spot. The Bagua diagram, naturally, landed on empty ground.

The next moment, Han Li appeared more than thirty zhang away. With another flap of his wings, he suddenly disappeared again.

"Thunder Escape Art."

The Heavenly Azure Saintess saw Han Li approaching her. She murmured softly, a hint of solemnity flashing in her beautiful eyes. She formed a strange hand seal with both hands. The Heavenly Azure Beast beneath her opened its mouth again, but this time it spewed out a vast white mist, quickly engulfing both the woman and the beast. The spot instantly became a large sea of mist, dozens of zhang wide.

After a thunderclap, a flash appeared.

This white mist was somewhat strange; his divine sense couldn't penetrate it, making it impossible to pinpoint the opponent's whereabouts for a moment.

However, he had no time to play hide-and-seek with these two.

Han Li's expression turned cold. With a wave of his hand, a purple ancient mirror appeared before his chest. He held the mirror up with both hands, injecting his entire spiritual power into it. Then, spiritual light flashed, and a hazy purple beam of light surged from the mirror's surface, streaking into the mist in a flash.

Wherever the purple light passed, the white mist churned. In a short while, most of the mist was scattered and dispersed, and it seemed the opponent would soon have nowhere to hide.

But at this moment, a burst of green flame erupted from the mist, blocking the purple light beam.

Han Li quickly gazed over, only to vaguely see that it was the Heavenly Azure Beast alone, hiding deep within the mist, continuously spewing out large amounts of green demonic fire. The silver-robed woman above it was nowhere to be seen.

This discovery filled Han Li with both surprise and joy. He had originally been contemplating how to separate the woman and the sacred beast, but now the opponent had actually abandoned the beast on her own accord. This was a rare opportunity indeed.

Although he didn't know where the Heavenly Azure Saintess was hiding or what means she planned to use, Han Li would naturally not let go of such an opportunity.

Thinking this, Han Li didn't hesitate in the slightest. With a mental command, the giant sword, which had long been hidden in the high-altitude clouds, let out an earth-shattering shriek. A shocking bolt of lightning flashed through, parting the clouds as it rapidly descended, its speed so immense that in the blink of an eye it was directly above the Heavenly Azure Beast's head.

Purple flames and golden arcs roared continuously on the sword.

The Heavenly Azure Beast didn't even have time to make a dodging move before it was cleaved in two from head to tail by a single sword strike.

Han Li was initially delighted, but then his expression changed dramatically.

The Heavenly Azure Beast's corpse actually transformed into wisps of white mist and vanished. This beast was merely an illusory projection created by transformation magic. In his moment of urgency, he had failed to distinguish it and had truly fallen for a major trick.

"Not good!"

Han Li inwardly cried out. Disregarding the need to search for the Heavenly Azure Beast's true form in the mist, he was about to retreat backward when suddenly, large patches of hazy green light shone down from above. His figure immediately stiffened, his movements becoming sluggish and slow. At the same time, enchanting incantations echoed from the air.

Startled, he quickly looked up.

Amidst a mass of silver light, the silver-robed woman floated dozens of zhang high. Strange silver patterns appeared on her forehead, and she chanted incantations, holding a very familiar small cauldron upside down in the air. From this cauldron, large amounts of green light spewed forth, enveloping an area of thirty zhang in circumference under its power.

"Void Heaven Cauldron!"

Han Li exclaimed in a choked voice, his face instantly turning deathly pale. He recognized the small cauldron at a glance.

He quickly, in horror, looked within his body. His own "Void Heaven Cauldron" was perfectly fine inside him.

What was going on? Could there really be two Void Heaven Cauldrons in the world?

Han Li was surprised and bewildered, still not understanding the mystery, when the small cauldron above his head, with a flash of spiritual light, rapidly expanded, instantly turning into a giant cauldron three to four zhang in diameter. At the same time, as the silver-robed woman urged it with a spell, the cauldron's mouth began to glow blindingly. Continuous, glittering green sand surged out from the cauldron, forming a large sand cloud that descended directly towards Han Li.

Seeing this, Han Li, without thinking, moved the silver wings on his back, intending to instantly transform into an electric arc and escape the range of the green light.

But at that moment, a series of rumbling roars came from the white mist. The sound was not loud, but an invisible fluctuation instantly swept over Han Li's body. After the silver light on his silver wings flickered a few times, the electrical arcs silently extinguished, and the Thunder Escape Art temporarily lost its effect.

What kind of divine ability is this? Han Li, horrified, hastily glanced into the mist.

Only the shadow of the Heavenly Azure Beast vaguely appeared and disappeared at the edge of the mist; it was unknown whether it was real or fake!

And at this moment, the sand cloud had already reached within a dozen zhang of the cavern ceiling. Han Li, left with no choice, could only point at the blue light shield in front of him. This shield transformed into a large blue light curtain, rising to meet the sky.

As soon as the sand cloud met the blue light, the green sand glowed brightly. The sand grains at the front simultaneously swelled rapidly, and massive, millstone-sized sand grains continuously plummeted, savagely striking the light curtain.

Thunderous crashes echoed ceaselessly. Although the blue light shield was miraculous, how could it withstand so many powerful impacts? In the blink of an eye, the light curtain shook violently, its blue light dimming immensely.

Not only that, but parts of the sand cloud suddenly split into two sand dragons, which skillfully bypassed the light curtain and lunged at Han Li from both sides.

Han Li, without time to think, opened his mouth and spat out a small cauldron. He flicked his finger on the cauldron, and a layer of blue ice flames appeared on its surface.

It was precisely his Void Heaven Cauldron, which he had cultivated to the first layer of the "Tongbao Jue"!

Although he could only utilize a very small portion of this cauldron's power, at this point, Han Li naturally couldn't afford to consider anything else.

He swept his hand over the cauldron lid, and a patch of blue mist surged out from the cauldron, instantly wrapping him completely.

Then, Han Li separated his hands to the sides, aiming at the two sand dragons, and simultaneously flicked his fingers repeatedly. More than ten streaks of green sword qi crisscrossed, fiercely striking the sand dragons.

"Puff, puff" sounds rang out successively, but only a dozen thumb-sized holes were shot into the sand dragons' heads, with no real effect.

Han Li's heart tightened. He tried to move to avoid the attack, but his body felt heavy as a mountain, his movements incredibly sluggish, making it impossible to move quickly.

As a result, the two sand dragons pounced on him. After two muffled thuds, they transformed back into a sand cloud, completely engulfing Han Li and his glowing aura, forming a giant, impenetrable sand cocoon.

The silver-robed woman in the air was initially startled to see Han Li produce a small cauldron similar in appearance to the sacred cauldron in her hand. But then, seeing Han Li easily trapped by the spiritual sand, a faint smile appeared on her beautiful face beneath the veil.

She was perfectly clear about the immense power of the spiritual sand within the sacred cauldron.

Once trapped by this sand, even several great immortal masters would be unable to escape quickly. Now, the opponent's life and death were entirely within her control.

After a loud "boom," the light curtain formed by the blue light shield was also shattered and dispersed. The remaining sand clouds similarly fell, covering Han Li.

The sand cocoon immediately grew another size larger.

At this, the woman felt even more at ease. Her figure moved, and she lightly descended, stepping on the giant cauldron.

But after only descending a dozen zhang, a sudden anomaly occurred below.

The sand cocoon, which should have been as solid as iron, suddenly emitted countless blue lights from its surface. Then, even without the woman activating a spell, the sand grains audibly crumbled and rolled away on their own, returning to a loose state of sand clouds, floating gently and motionlessly in the air.

And in the center of the sand cloud, a dazzling blue mist shimmered. Han Li stood within it, holding the small cauldron, looking up at the woman.

The silver-robed woman's descent abruptly halted. Her bright eyes were filled with an expression of utter disbelief, and her face instantly turned extremely ugly.

A cold snort escaped Han Li's mouth. He slapped the lid of the Void Heaven Cauldron with one hand, and rings of ripple-like blue light clearly appeared around him, then spread outwards in all directions.

Wherever the blue patterns passed, the green sand vanished abruptly, as if swallowed.

Witnessing this scene, the woman was greatly alarmed. She quickly formed hand seals, intending to re-activate the spiritual sand to attack Han Li, but it remained still, showing no reaction at all. It had suddenly lost its spiritual connection with her.

The silver-robed woman immediately grew anxious, sharply tapping the giant cauldron beneath her with her jade foot.

After the giant cauldron spun for a while, it spewed forth an even more dazzling green light, directly enveloping Han Li's head.
