166: Beihai Holy Land

A day passed quickly.

Deep within the Myriad Immortals Palace of the Luo Xing Sect, three figures appeared.

The leader was none other than the Sect Leader of the Luo Xing Sect, Fang Zhen.

"How is the situation?"

Fang Zhen looked into the Void Realm, his hands clasped behind his back.

"Sect Leader, from what we've investigated, the demons have retreated. This severe blow means the demons won't be able to gather their forces to attack again for a while, so we are safe for now," Xuan Ming said.

"Don't be careless; remain vigilant," Fang Zhen turned around and said.

"Understood," Xuan Ming nodded.

"Elder Zi, how is the situation with Li Feiyu?" Fang Zhen asked Zi Xuan.

"There's no reply yet; he should still be in recuperation," Zi Xuan replied.

"Sect Leader, it seems we need to prepare a grand gift this time," Xuan Ming interjected.

"Indeed, the situation reversed. If not for him, it wouldn't have been this easy," Fang Zhen nodded.

"Then, what do you plan, Sect Leader? I can go prepare it," Zi Xuan offered.

"No need, I've already prepared it. Just wait for him to arrive."

Fang Zhen shook his head.

Hearing this, Zi Xuan nodded.

"The people from Myriad Immortals Palace will arrive soon. Come with me to welcome them."

Turning to look into the Void Realm, Fang Zhen said calmly.

"They're coming so soon?" The two were startled.

"Yes, they'll be here any moment," Fang Zhen nodded, then stepped forward, disappearing from the main hall.

Zi Xuan and Xuan Ming exchanged glances, then followed him...

Luo Xing Island, overseas Void Realm.

A divine light descended from the sky. Just as it was about to reach Luo Xing Island, it suddenly stopped.

Its true forms were revealed: an old man in a black robe and a young woman in a moon-colored robe, appearing to be in her early twenties.

At this moment, three rays of light shot out from Luo Xing Island and headed towards the two.

"Elder Shenxu, what an honor to have you visit; we apologize for not greeting you sooner," a voice rang out, and the figures of Fang Zhen and his two companions appeared before them.

"Sect Leader Fang, you are too kind," the black-robed old man smiled. The moon-robed woman beside him remained cold and silent.

"And this Fellow Daoist is?" Fang Zhen's gaze fell on the moon-robed woman, then back to Elder Shenxu.

"Yaoguang!"

The moon-robed woman spoke a single name.

Elder Shenxu smiled and said, "Sect Leader Fang, please forgive her. Yaoguang is naturally cold. She is a Disciple of our Myriad Immortals Palace's Sect Leader."

Fang Zhen nodded.

"Didn't you say there were demons besieging the island? Why haven't we encountered any along the way?" Yaoguang asked.

"Well, that was the case before, but the situation has changed. A Fellow Daoist intervened, slaying four Demon Emperors, which caused the demons to retreat," Fang Zhen explained.

"Hmm?!"

Hearing this, Elder Shenxu and Yaoguang both looked at him simultaneously.

"Sect Leader Fang, who is this person? This old man would like to meet him," Elder Shenxu said, looking at Fang Zhen.

"This Fellow Daoist also sustained some injuries and is currently recuperating. Fellow Daoists, please enter the island first, and I will explain the situation in detail," Fang Zhen said with a smile.

"Alright," the two nodded, then transformed into streaks of light and flew towards Luo Xing Island...

Luo Xing Island, eastern side, within a hidden cave, Han Li sat cross-legged, a vast Aura flowing around him.

The air itself was compressed by his Aura, creating a vacuum.

Purple divine light illuminated the cave, and an unfathomable Aura emanated from Han Li's body.

"Hiss!"

His eyes opened, and a lightning-like flash of light shot out, tearing through the Void Realm.

The vast Aura receded, and Han Li slowly exhaled a turbid breath.

In one day, he had completely absorbed all the Blood Qi, successfully enhancing himself, and had already stabilized his cultivation.

With the Blood Qi from the three Demon Emperors and hundreds of thousands of demons, plus the feedback from the Demonic Origin breaking through to the ninth level, this Breakthrough was even more powerful than expected.

He had opened eighty secret apertures.

Connecting to eight hundred li of the power of heaven and earth, his magical power also became more profound.

Looking inward, every secret aperture was suffused with divine light.

The improvement in Blood Qi was incomparable to cultivation-based enhancement.

His magical power completely crushed that of a Peak Divine Aperture Realm cultivator.

Not only was the quality high, but the quantity was also immense.

And the changes in his Physical Body were even more significant.

He condensed a full three Dragon Elephant Divine Symbols in one go. The strength gained from the Dragon Elephant Divine Symbols alone increased by thirty million jun.

Inside his body, seven Dragon Elephant Divine Symbols emitted a purple glow, illuminating his flesh, blood, tendons, and bones.

The power of Dragon Elephant surged.

It gave him a feeling of being able to tear apart anything.

The Dragon Elephant Divine Embryos in his body reached a total of one thousand.

He directly increased his Dragon Elephant Divine Embryos by four hundred in one go.

And all the Dragon Elephant Primordial Embryos also reached a total of four thousand.

He increased his Dragon Elephant Primordial Embryos by one thousand five hundred.

The increase in Dragon Elephant Primordial Embryos allowed his Physical Body to break through again, reaching a terrifying level.

Even the attack of a Dao Artifact, he could withstand.

The increased strength also broke the limit again.

His strength reached an astonishing three hundred million jun, even surpassing three hundred million jun, a total of seven point five million ding of strength.

This had already far exceeded the limit of the Divine Aperture Realm. In terms of pure strength, even a Peak Divine Aperture Realm cultivator connecting to the power of heaven and earth would find it difficult to match him.

However, compared to the Divine Hidden Realm, even with the power of heaven and earth and the eruption of ultimate Divine Abilities, he still couldn't contend. The gap in strength was too vast.

The higher he went, the less advantageous his Dragon Elephant Overlord Body Art became.

But for now, his advantage was still immense. If he used other Cultivation Techniques, he would either have to surpass them or Cultivate them simultaneously, then evolve the Demonic Origin to enhance the Dragon Elephant Overlord Body Art. As long as he broke through the grade, he could break the limit of one hundred eight thousand.

Han Li was still a long way from cultivating it to its absolute limit.

He wasn't in a hurry; he'd cross that bridge when he came to it.

When he went to the Central Continent, this top-tier human realm, there should also be extremely powerful martial arts. If he couldn't surpass the Dragon Elephant Overlord Body Art, he could take a step back and Cultivate other Physical Body Cultivation Techniques to improve himself.

"There's still a Celestial Elephant Demon Emperor..."

Han Li's consciousness permeated the embroidered rivers and mountains map, looking at the Celestial Elephant Demon Emperor, who was firmly suppressed by the Great Formation of Mountains, Rivers, Sun, and Moon. Now, he had completely lost the will to resist.

With his strength increased again, the Celestial Elephant Demon Emperor was even less able to break through the Great Formation.

He could kill him anytime he wanted.

"The Dragon Elephant Bloodline within the Celestial Elephant Demon Emperor is very strong and requires time to refine. I'll go to the Luo Xing Sect first, get the reward, and then deal with him after I leave."

His thoughts shifted, and Han Li's mind settled. He withdrew his consciousness, waved his hand, and removed the Formation.

The Silver Armor Puppet was also put into his cosmos ring.

Stepping out of the cave, Han Li took out a sound transmission bell.

Hearing Zi Xuan's repeated sound transmissions inquiring about him, Han Li shook the sound transmission bell and used his magic to transmit a reply...

Luo Xing Sect, deep within the core, in a spacious courtyard, Fang Zhen, Zi Xuan, Xuan Ming, and the two from Myriad Immortals Palace were all present.

At the stone table, Elder Shenxu took a sip of tea, listening to Fang Zhen's account. He became even more interested in this Li Feiyu.

"Fellow Daoist Li's strength is indeed very formidable, absolutely top-tier in the world," Fang Zhen praised.

"That's not necessarily true. In the Central Continent, the Ten Great Holy Lands have many such young prodigies," Yaoguang interjected.

"That's true, but relatively speaking, there probably aren't many who can surpass Fellow Daoist Li in the same realm," Fang Zhen smiled.

Yaoguang fell silent.

She couldn't refute that statement. To fight and kill a Demon Emperor in the same realm, that strength was indeed monstrous.

To be able to counter-kill and almost wipe out several Demon Emperors working together, she couldn't do that.

Being able to defeat a Demon Emperor was one thing, but to slay one was another concept entirely.

Defeating and killing had different difficulty coefficients.

Without absolutely superior strength, it was very difficult to achieve that.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Zi Xuan took out a sound transmission bell, her expression brightening.

"Sect Leader, Fellow Daoist Li has recovered and will be here soon."

"Oh? Is that so? Then quickly go and greet him!" Fang Zhen immediately said.

"He's recovered? That's good. Let's go together. This old man truly wants to see which Holy Land Prodigy this is," Elder Shenxu said.

With that, he stood up. Yaoguang, beside him, also stood.

"Alright then, in that case, let's go together."

Fang Zhen nodded and didn't refuse.

He wasn't clear about Li Feiyu's exact origins, but perhaps with the Myriad Immortals Palace's background and insight, they would know.

The figures moved and immediately disappeared from the courtyard.

—

Tian Luo Sect, in front of the main hall, Han Li's figure appeared.

After waiting at the entrance for a while, he looked into the distance, where several rays of light were heading in his direction.

"Hmm? Who are these two people?"

Han Li's gaze narrowed as he looked at the man and woman among them.

He recognized Fang Zhen and the two Grand Elders of the Luo Xing Sect, but he had never seen this man and woman.

Moreover, the black-robed old man among them was a Divine Hidden Realm powerhouse, no less formidable than Fang Zhen.

In an instant, the group arrived before him.

"Fellow Daoist Li!"

Fang Zhen greeted him with a chuckle and a cupped-hand salute.

Everyone's gaze fell upon him.

"How does he feel even more terrifying than before?!" Zi Xuan's eyelids twitched as she looked at the 'Li Feiyu' before her.

The Li Feiyu before her was three points more terrifying than when he was at his Peak previously.

Judging by the Aura inadvertently emanating from him, she felt that her perception couldn't be wrong.

Li Feiyu's strength must be even greater than before.

He was still injured yesterday, but today he not only recovered but also ascended to a higher level?!

To improve in just one day, what kind of Prodigy was this!!

"Sect Leader Fang," Han Li saluted with cupped hands.

"Fellow Daoist Li, have you recovered?" Fang Zhen scrutinized him from top to bottom, a hint of surprise flashing in the depths of his eyes.

"Yes, just some minor injuries; I've already recovered," Han Li nodded.

"Your Excellency is Li Feiyu?" At this moment, Shen Xu spoke, stepping forward.

"And this Fellow Daoist is?"

Han Li looked at the black-robed old man before him.

Fang Zhen smiled and immediately introduced, "Fellow Daoist Li, allow me to introduce you. This is Elder Shenxu from Myriad Immortals Palace. And this is Fellow Daoist Yaoguang, a Disciple of the Myriad Immortals Palace's Sect Leader. Myriad Immortals Palace is the number one Human Race power in our North Sea, and also our North Sea's only Holy Land."

"Myriad Immortals Palace, North Sea Holy Land!!"

Han Li's pupils contracted.

To be a Holy Land-level power, they must possess the strength to produce a Supreme Paragon, or have an existing Supreme Paragon.

The heritage of a Holy Land power goes without saying; they are at least ten-thousand-year-old great sects or older.

A Central Continent Tian Mo Sect, merely sending out a fraction of its power, was enough to make the Wu Dynasty face it with all its might. One can imagine the power of a Holy Land force.

The gap between top-tier forces and Holy Land forces is self-evident.

"I am Li Feiyu, greetings, Fellow Daoist Shen Xu, Fellow Daoist Yaoguang." Han Li cupped his hands.

"Fellow Daoist Li is so young, yet his strength is already so formidable. It's truly incredible," Elder Shenxu said with a smile.

Yaoguang, standing nearby, didn't speak, but her gaze remained fixed on him.

From this "Li Feiyu," she felt a strong sense of pressure.

This person was far superior to her.

"Fellow Daoists, let's go inside and sit," Fang Zhen said with a smile.

The group nodded, then stepped into the main hall.

Han Li sat on the right-side chair.

Zixuan sat beside him.

"Fellow Daoist Li is so young, may I ask which force he comes from?" Elder Shenxu asked, looking at Han Li.

"I come from a small force in the Southern Continent, not worth mentioning," Han Li said indifferently.

The Human Race Holy Land hegemonic forces of the North Sea were strong, but they had no relation to him.

Han Li had no need to curry favor.

Strength was status.

Status gained through currying favor was merely an illusion.

"Southern Continent..." Elder Shenxu's gaze narrowed as he looked at Han Li and said, "This old man once visited the Southern Continent and knows a thing or two about it. Perhaps if Fellow Daoist mentions his force, this old man might know of it."

Hearing this, Han Li frowned.

"What's wrong, Fellow Daoist Li, do you have something you can't say?" Shen Xu asked, looking at him.

"Must you really dig for details..."

Han Li grumbled inwardly, but on the surface, he nodded calmly.

"I do indeed have some unspeakable difficulties. I ask for Fellow Daoist Shen Xu's understanding."

Shen Xu frowned, then quickly regained his composure, saying, "Since Fellow Daoist finds it inconvenient to speak, then so be it."

"Fellow Daoist Li, have you come to the North Sea for something in particular? In the North Sea, my Myriad Immortals Palace might be able to offer some assistance."

Elder Shenxu spoke, looking at Han Li.

Han Li shook his head: "Thank you for your kindness, Fellow Daoist Shen Xu. I appreciate it, but Li (humble) is only here to travel the North Sea and will not stay for long. I am going to the North Continent."

"Northern Continent Demon Realm!"

Hearing this, Elder Shenxu's expression changed slightly, and Fang Zhen and the others also looked at Han Li in surprise.

The Northern Continent Demon Realm was not a benevolent place.

If it were in the North Sea, the Human Race's influence would still be great, but in the Northern Continent Demon Realm, it was a different story.

Among the five continents, the Northern Continent Demon Realm was the most chaotic.

It was also a place completely dominated by demons.

Three great Yao Race Holy Land forces reigned supreme.

"The Northern Continent Demon Realm, that is a world of demons. Fellow Daoist Li, that is not a benevolent place," Elder Shenxu sighed.

"Li (humble) understands, but Li (humble) is only going to the North Continent for a trip. I believe there shouldn't be any problems."

Han Li said.

"This old man has also been to the North Continent, but I still advise Fellow Daoist to proceed with caution. If something happens in the North Continent, even a Holy Land cannot provide protection; it's beyond their reach," Elder Shenxu said calmly.

"Thank you for the reminder, Fellow Daoist Shen Xu. I will remember it." Han Li nodded.

"Fellow Daoist Li, the Northern Continent Demon Realm is still a long distance away. Since Fellow Daoist is traveling in the North Sea, why not visit the Myriad Immortals Palace?" Elder Shenxu asked, looking at him.

"I won't go. If I have the opportunity another day, I will definitely visit the Myriad Immortals Palace to see Fellow Daoist." Han Li shook his head.

"Alright then." Elder Shenxu's expression remained unchanged as he nodded.

"However, Fellow Daoist still needs to be careful. Although the North Sea is not as dangerous as the Northern Continent Demon Realm, it still carries some risks. Fellow Daoist has killed several Demon Emperors, so I'm afraid the North Sea Yao Race will not easily let the matter rest. In fact, Fellow Daoist might even end up on the North Sea Yao Race's wanted list." Elder Shenxu spoke, looking at Han Li.

"Thank you for the reminder. I will be careful." Han Li nodded.

"Fellow Daoist Li, your assistance this time has resolved the crisis of my Luo Xing Island. Please accept this small token of our appreciation."

At this moment, Fang Zhen spoke, and as soon as his voice fell, a cosmos ring floated towards Han Li and landed in his hand.

Looking at the cosmos ring in his hand, Han Li swept it with his Divine Sense. Inside were no less than a million Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

There were also some rare Materials, all of them rare treasures.

"Sect Leader Fang is too polite." Han Li said, then put away the cosmos ring.

"Fellow Daoist Li, your help this time was well-deserved." Fang Zhen smiled.

"Fellow Daoist's strength is a rare talent, even among Holy Lands," Elder Shenxu said.

"Fellow Daoist Shen Xu is too polite." Han Li smiled, then he stood up and looked at Fang Zhen: "Sect Leader Fang, with matters here concluded, I shall take my leave. Fellow Daoists, we shall meet again."

"Swish—!"

A golden light flashed, and Han Li disappeared directly from the main hall.

"..."

Han Li suddenly stood up and left directly, leaving the others stunned.

He's already gone?

Does he have to be so fast?

Looking at the Void Realm outside the hall, their hearts twitched.

"This Fellow Daoist Li is quite decisive," Elder Shenxu said after a long while.

"Young people are decisive, it's to be expected." Fang Zhen smiled.

"Since there are no major problems, this old man will also take his leave." Elder Shenxu stood up.

"..."

"Elder Shenxu, you just arrived today. Please stay for a few more days; you haven't even rested much yet." Fang Zhen said, looking at him.

Shen Xu smiled: "No need. With the matter resolved, this old man must return to report."

Fang Zhen's expression changed, and he sighed: "In that case, very well."

Then, Fang Zhen spread his hand and took out a cosmos ring.

"Sect Leader Fang, I cannot accept a reward for no merit. My Myriad Immortals Palace is not a petty organization. Farewell."

Before the cosmos ring could be offered, Elder Shenxu spoke. As soon as his voice fell, he stepped out of the main hall, with Yaoguang following closely behind, and they left directly.

"...This."

Watching the two leave directly, Fang Zhen felt a lump in his throat.

"Sect Leader, it's likely that Elder Shenxu is very interested in Li Feiyu, which is why he left to pursue him," Xuan Ming said at this moment.

Fang Zhen's brows were tightly furrowed.

Zixuan stood up, looked at him, and said, "Sect Leader, will Elder Shenxu do something to him..."

"We cannot interfere in this matter. Since he has left, let's pretend we know nothing." Before Zixuan could finish her sentence, Fang Zhen spoke.

Hearing this, Zixuan lowered her head.

Even if the Sect Leader had the strength to intervene, they could not afford to offend the Myriad Immortals Palace.

What he said was not wrong.

"If even the Chi Yue Demon Emperor couldn't catch him, he should be able to leave easily."

Looking at the Void Realm outside the hall, a thought flashed through Zixuan's mind.

"I hope he's safe..."

—

Luo Xing Island, overseas Void Realm, Han Li walked on clouds. Suddenly, he frowned and looked back.

"What does that old man want to do?"

"Forget it, I shouldn't get involved with the North Sea Holy Land. I'll leave first."

Thinking this, Han Li fully unleashed the Kun Peng Transformation Art. With a flap of his wings, he was a thousand li away in a single breath, vanishing into the Void Realm, and soon disappeared without a trace.

He couldn't afford to provoke the North Sea Holy Land either.

Better to avoid trouble, Han Li chose to escape directly.

Let's see if you can catch up... A moment later, in the vast sea, on a desolate island, a golden light descended from the sky and landed on this barren island.

It was Han Li.

Moving at full speed, he quickly shook off the two from the Myriad Immortals Palace.

Landing on the island, Han Li looked at the North Sea Void Realm, and his figure flickered, disappearing from his original spot.

About the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, in the North Sea Void Realm, a streak of light streaked across the sky.

Within the light were precisely the two from the Myriad Immortals Palace.

Stopping above a desolate island, Elder Shenxu looked at the endless ocean, his expression solemn.

"Elder Shen, has this person completely disappeared?" Yaoguang asked, looking at Elder Shenxu.

"Yes, his speed is very fast. I couldn't catch him." Although Elder Shenxu was somewhat disbelieving, it was the truth; he had indeed lost him.

This Li Feiyu was even more formidable than expected.

"This person is too timid," Yaoguang said coldly.

"It's not timidity, but caution." Elder Shenxu shook his head.

Yaoguang lowered her head, looking at the barren island below, then looked at Shen Xu beside her.

"Let's go. Since there's no fate, there's no need to force it." Elder Shenxu sighed, then continued forward, with Yaoguang following closely. The two soon disappeared into the North Sea Void Realm.

After about half an hour, a faint light bloomed from within the barren island, and a black-clad figure wearing a black hood stepped out.

Looking up at the sky, at the North Sea Void Realm, Han Li's gaze narrowed.

After pondering for a while, he then left and soon arrived at an extremely secluded cave within the barren island.

It faced the sea and was covered with thorny weeds.

Han Li stood in the cave, set up a Formation, summoned the Silver Armor Puppet, then with a thought, the embroidered rivers and mountains map manifested and floated within the cave.

With a flash, Han Li stepped directly into the embroidered rivers and mountains map... Inside the embroidered rivers and mountains map, in an open space, a brilliant Formation enveloped the area.

The Celestial Elephant Demon Emperor had transformed into an elephant-headed human body, sitting cross-legged on the ground, tightly covered by the mountain and river Grand Formation.

Han Li's figure appeared outside the Grand Formation, looking at the Celestial Elephant Demon Emperor within the Formation.

And at that instant, the Celestial Elephant Demon Emperor also opened his eyes, looking at Han Li.

Their gazes met, and a trace of fear appeared in the Celestial Elephant Demon Emperor's eyes.

Not far away, the corpses of several Demon Emperors lay on the ground, a shocking sight.

"Swish—!" With a step, Han Li directly entered the Formation.

The Celestial Elephant Demon Emperor immediately stood up.

"If you spare my life, I can exchange it for a Treasure Trove."

Looking at Han Li, the Celestial Elephant Demon Emperor suddenly spoke.

"Treasure Trove?"

Han Li looked at the Celestial Elephant Demon Emperor, his expression not fluctuating much.

"What kind of Treasure Trove? Tell me about it." Han Li said indifferently.

"You first agree to spare my life and sign a mental contract, then I'll tell you."

The Celestial Elephant Demon Emperor said.

"Slap—"

As soon as his voice fell, a crisp slapping sound rang out, and the Celestial Elephant Demon Emperor's body was violently thrown against the Formation, colliding with a burst of light.

"Pfft—!" A mouthful of blood spurted out, and half of the Celestial Elephant Demon Emperor's face swelled up.
