169: True Devil's Body North Sea War
“Buzz—!!!”
When the life essence and blood of the third Demon Emperor were absorbed, the True Devil Power within him surged dramatically, and Han Li’s body underwent a noticeable transformation.
His flesh, bones, and internal organs all greatly improved at this moment.
His Physical Body seemed to break through some kind of restriction, undergoing a substantial change.
Demonic light shone, dazzling and brilliant.
Han Li, like a Demon God, exuded a powerful Devilish Qi.
All around him, a wave of Qi surged out.
“It’s done!”
Han Li’s eyes revealed a pleasant surprise.
Within his body, True Devil Power surged. By absorbing the life essence and blood of three Demon Emperors, Han Li achieved the first stage of the True Devil Body.
The True Devil Mark within his body also instantly became brilliant.
The demonic light receded, and everything returned to calm.
Han Li stood still, unmoving.
An invisible pressure permeated the air.
Divine Might like a prison!
Within his body, the vast True Devil Power circulated, and his body reached its first stage.
He had achieved the True Devil Body!
Han Li could feel the explosive power within his body.
Having only achieved the first stage of the True Devil Body, his strength instantly surged by one hundred million jun of power.
His strength immediately reached four hundred and sixty million jun of power.
This Breakthrough in strength surpassed even the Dragon Elephant Divine Symbol of the Dragon Elephant Overlord Body Art.
And this was just a change in strength.
With the first stage of the True Devil Body cultivated, he broke through ten secret apertures in one go, making his magic power even more profound.
It was merely the tip of the iceberg of the Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art.
The most important thing was the True Devil Power.
Any martial arts or Divine Ability, when empowered by True Devil Power, would have unimaginable might.
True Devil Power could enhance the power of any martial arts.
The Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art did not have martial arts Divine Ability, but as long as one Cultivated True Devil Power, they could unleash power far beyond what they had before.
Under the same strength, the power of martial arts unleashed by True Devil Power would directly crush opponents.
This was one of the abnormal aspects of the Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art.
The stronger the True Devil Body, the more terrifying the True Devil Power, and the greater the power of the martial arts Divine Ability it empowered.
“Although it’s difficult to Cultivate, it’s… worth it!”
Han Li felt the vast True Devil Power within his body, a brilliant smile on his face.
Just the first stage transformation of the True Devil Body was so terrifying; after further improvement, it would be even more frightening.
“It just requires a lot of life essence and blood… only the essence and blood of a Demon Emperor can bring significant improvement, which is a bit difficult to obtain…” Han Li sighed.
Demon Emperors in the God Realm were not like cabbages, found everywhere.
Even in a place like the North Sea, they were not that easy to encounter. Previously, it was good luck to stumble upon a special situation like Luo Xing Island.
“Let’s go out and see the situation first.”
Calming his mind, Han Li stepped out of the embroidered rivers and mountains map… Leaving the cave, Han Li looked up at the sky.
His gaze swept into the distance.
“How great would it be if another major battle broke out, the more intense, the more exhilarating.” Han Li smacked his lips.
But it was just a thought.
“Whoosh—!”
Transforming into a golden light, Han Li directly disappeared from the desolate island.
—
In the North Sea Void Realm, Han Li walked on clouds.
Suddenly, he stopped and looked ahead.
Strong Demonic Qi surged, and hundreds of demons appeared before his eyes.
Among them, there were seven or eight Demon King-level existences, and two Demon Kings in the Peak of the Acquired Realm.
Demonic Qi rolled.
“Humans, my little ones, kill him!”
Just as Han Li was about to make a move, this group of demons directly charged towards him.
“…”
“How cute…” Han Li smiled brightly, “Come, come well.”
The more, the better.
“Boom—!!”
Han Li raised his hand and directly punched out. The demons hadn't even gotten close before they were instantly killed by the force from a distance.
“Buzz—!”
With his five fingers spread, Han Li instantly absorbed the essence and blood of these hundreds of demons.
And at this moment, in his mind, the Heaven and Earth Demon Seed vibrated.
A strong tremor came.
Having killed this group of demons, Han Li completely broke through the last one percent.
The Heaven and Earth Demon Seed broke through.
Deep in his mind, the purple Demon Seed transformed, its volume instantly doubling.
Han Li sealed the blood Qi, and the interface appeared before his eyes.
Heaven and Earth Demon Seed (Stage 1, 1%)
“Stage 1…”
Looking at the interface in his eyes, Han Li came back to his senses.
Breaking through level nine, it had changed from “level” to “stage”!
“This wave of blood Qi feedback should be good. It probably won’t be enough to transform the True Devil Body, so I’ll use the blood Qi to improve the Dragon Elephant Overlord Body Art first, then achieve Perfection and Fusion, and evolve the Demonic Origin to enhance the Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art.”
With a thought, Han Li immediately disappeared into the Void Realm.
Although he now had the even more terrifying Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art, the Dragon Elephant Overlord Body Art could not be neglected either.
When he eventually improved the Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art all at once, he would also make significant progress.
For now, he would first use life essence and blood to improve the Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art.
A two-pronged approach… In the North Sea, on an island, Han Li found a random spot, summoned the Silver Armor Puppet as a Protector, and began his improvement.
Releasing the sealed blood Qi, the Dragon Elephant Overlord Body Art circulated, and the roars of Dragon Elephant emanated from his body.
The blood Qi from breaking through level nine was vast.
As the Heaven and Earth Demon Seed broke through, the feedback of blood Qi became stronger.
In the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Han Li completed his improvement.
Within his body, the Dragon Elephant Primordial Embryo increased by a thousand, reaching six thousand, and the Dragon Elephant Divine Embryo also increased by a hundred, reaching one thousand three hundred, forming the tenth Dragon Elephant Divine Symbol.
His strength once again broke through the limit, reaching four hundred and ninety million jun of power.
“Over a hundred demons, and the life essence and blood of eight Demon Kings, only reached one percent…”
Sensing the changes in his body, his True Devil Power increased by a tiny bit.
Only a tiny bit.
However, knowing the difficulty of Breakthrough, Han Li was not too surprised. After all, the essence and blood of three Demon Emperors only allowed him to Cultivate the first stage of the True Devil Body.
Standing up, Han Li put away the Silver Armor Puppet and stepped off the island… “There are so many demons, am I too lucky?”
After dealing with a group of demons and absorbing and sealing their life essence and blood, Han Li looked into the distance.
This was already the third wave.
In half a day, he encountered three waves of demons, each numbering around a hundred, and most of them had five or six, or seven or eight, Demon Kings present.
Han Li felt very surprised.
When he was in seclusion before, he didn't have such good luck.
“Could it be that something happened in the North Sea?” Looking at the calm ocean, a thought emerged in Han Li’s mind.
He vaguely sensed some abnormal scent.
“Could it be that another incident of demons besieging occurred?”
Han Li rubbed his chin, his eyebrows twitching.
From this situation, the possibility was indeed very high!
“If so, then my opportunity has come!”
In his eyes, a glimmer of excitement flashed, and Han Li’s figure moved, disappearing again from his original spot.
Chaos, the more chaotic, the better!
Fishing in troubled waters.
Alone, if he couldn't win, he could run away at any time.
A large-scale movement of demons was an opportunity not to be missed!
...“Boom—!!!”
In the North Sea, on an island, huge battle fluctuations resounded through the Void Realm, and the Heaven and Earth trembled.
Within the island, countless demons were as dense as locusts, and the entire island was under siege by demons.
In the Void Realm, two terrifying Auras collided, space twisted, and destructive power permeated, destroying one side.
Two figures clashed like lightning in the Void Realm, fighting extremely fiercely.
At this moment, outside the island, within a dozen miles of cloud sea, a young man in black with a black hood appeared.
Standing in the cloud sea, Han Li’s gaze was cast towards the island.
Martial Artist and demons fought, and a bloody Aura permeated the sky.
Strong fluctuations swept out.
“There are at least tens of thousands of demons here…”
Looking at the figures of the demons on the island, Han Li’s eyes lit up.
Immediately, his gaze looked above the island.
Two powerful Auras collided.
One human, one demon.
Both were existences in the Divine Aperture Realm.
One was a young man in white, and the other was a Demon Emperor of the Yao Race.
The battle was extremely fierce, and the clash of the two giants made the surrounding Void Realm unable to withstand it.
The young man in white held a Low-Grade Dao Artifact Magic Treasure and fought back and forth with this Yao Race Demon Emperor.
Relying on the power of the Dao Artifact, the young man in white did not fall into a disadvantage, maintaining an even footing.
“Demon Emperor…”
Han Li’s eyes lit up. In the next breath, Kun Peng Wings manifested, and he directly disappeared above the cloud sea… “Boom—!!!”
Destructive light waves collided, and the figures of the young man in white and the Demon Emperor were simultaneously forced back.
“Human Race of the Myriad Immortals Palace, you have some skill, but today, you will surely die!”
The Demon Emperor let out a sinister laugh, roared, and directly transformed into its true form.
A Flood Dragon.
Hundreds of feet long, like a true Dragon, its Aura was monstrous.
Its entire body was inky black, as if cast from obsidian.
“Roar—!!”
The Flood Dragon Demon Emperor roared, and a strong light emanated from its body. But at this moment, above the Demon Emperor’s head, in the Void Realm, a brilliant fist print broke through the air and descended.
Carrying an Aura that crushed everything, the surrounding Void Realm directly collapsed.
The Flood Dragon Demon Emperor was shocked, but before it had time to react, this terrifying punch directly landed on the Flood Dragon Demon Emperor’s body.
“Boom!!!”
The fist print struck the Flood Dragon Demon Emperor’s massive Dragon body, and the scales on its body instantly burst open. The hundreds of feet large Flood Dragon body was sent crashing towards the island by a single punch.
The Flood Dragon Demon Emperor’s body slammed onto the island, causing the entire island to tremble violently, and the earth cracked.
A mountain Peak was immediately destroyed, rocks disintegrated, shaking the Heaven and Earth.
And seeing this scene, the young man in white, the giant, was stunned.
There was another master!
His mind was shaken, and just as the young man in white recovered, he saw a golden light flash in the Void Realm, and a figure, like a teleportation, directly rushed towards the island.
The Flood Dragon Demon Emperor, who had crashed into the island, had just gotten up. However, in the next second, an extreme sense of crisis rose in its heart.
It directly activated its demonic power, forming a demonic power shield that enveloped its entire body.
“Crack—!”
A brilliant fist print descended, and the demonic power shield did not even last a single breath, being directly shattered.
The brilliant fist print immediately landed on the Dragon’s head.
A violent roar sounded.
The Flood Dragon Demon Emperor’s Dragon’s head was directly smashed in half, bleeding profusely, extremely miserable.
Its life Aura plummeted, and it was on its last breath.
Before it could even catch its breath, a golden light flashed, and a golden seal, like a small mountain, manifested, slamming onto the Flood Dragon Demon Emperor’s Dragon’s head, inflicting a second heavy blow. Destructive power permeated, collapsing its spiritual consciousness, completely killing it.
Han Li exhaled a mouthful of turbid Qi, and with a wave of his hand, he immediately put away the Flood Dragon Demon Emperor’s Physical Body, sealing it.
Blood Qi entered his body, and the Demon Seed sealed it.
“Dead!”
The young man in white, the giant, looked at the scene in the thick dust and smoke, his pupils instantly constricting.
At this moment, a platinum divine light rose from the center of the island, and a platinum divine sword soared into the sky.
"Slash!"
A cold voice rang out, and the platinum divine sword instantly erupted with tens of thousands of Sword Qi, sweeping across the entire island.
Demons were directly slain by the Sword Qi.
The bursting Sword Qi, like a torrential downpour from the sky, washed over the entire island.
In an instant, hundreds of thousands of demons were completely wiped out.
A bloody Aura enveloped the entire island, and a thick layer of blood mist permeated the air.
This scene made all the Human Race Martial Artists on the island feel their scalps tingle.
And just as everyone was stunned, the corpses of the slain demons and the dead Human Race Martial Artists were all swept away by a divine light.
Inside the embroidered rivers and mountains map, corpses were piled up like mountains.
The Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art absorbs life essence and blood to Cultivate, and it can use the life essence and blood of both demons and Human Race Martial Artists.
However, Han Li would not massively slaughter Human Race Martial Artists.
He had his bottom line.
If he were to massively slaughter Human Race Martial Artists and offer them as blood sacrifices to all living beings, then he would truly be no different from a devil.
But he would not waste the dead bodies; he collected them all.
He naturally wouldn't miss the opportunity to extract some life essence and blood.
"This wave, a huge profit!" Han Li smiled.
At this moment, a white light, like lightning, rushed towards him. Han Li looked over; it was the white-clothed young giant.
Divine Aperture Realm, with a profound Aura.
He arrived in front of him, only a few feet separating the two.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist... You are Li Feiyu!!"
The white-clothed young giant looked at Han Li, spoke half a sentence, then suddenly changed, looking at him with a stunned expression.
Han Li: "???"
How did he know his alias?
He didn't know this white-clothed young giant at all.
Could it be that he was very famous now?
Or was it because he had slain four Demon Emperors on Luo Xing Island, making him famous?
His thoughts raced. Han Li looked at the white-clothed young giant, "Who is Fellow Daoist?"
Han Li did not immediately admit it.
Calling out his alias with just one glance, this matter was a bit strange.
"Daoist Li, I am an Elder of Myriad Immortals Palace. My name is Bai Chun."
The white-clothed young giant revealed his identity.
"Myriad Immortals Palace Elder..."
"Then it seems it's because of Shen Xu and that Yaoguang..." Hearing this, Han Li suddenly understood.
A giant of Myriad Immortals Palace, then it was not strange.
It must be because of Shen Xu and Yaoguang that he knew.
"So it's a Fellow Daoist from Myriad Immortals Palace, my apologies for the disrespect." Han Li cupped his hands.
Bai Chun smiled, looked at him, and said, "Daoist Li, you are a celebrity in the North Sea now. All Human Race Sect forces throughout the North Sea know you. I didn't expect to meet Fellow Daoist here. If it weren't for Fellow Daoist slaying this guy, I'm afraid it wouldn't have ended so easily."
"Throughout the North Sea, known to all?!" Hearing Bai Chun say this, Han Li looked at him.
Slaying four Demon Emperors, his fame had spread to this extent?
"Daoist Bai, what do you mean by that?" Han Li frowned.
Bai Chun: "???"
What did he mean?
Didn't he know?
Hearing this, Bai Chun looked at the "Li Feiyu" in front of him with a bewildered expression.
The entire North Sea knew, and he didn't?
"Daoist Li, don't you know?" Bai Chun looked at him and said.
Han Li: "..."
Know? What the hell do I know!
Han Li shook his head: "I was in seclusion for a year and just came out, so I'm not clear."
"..."
Bai Chun looked at Han Li, speechless.
After a long while, he finally spoke: "Daoist Li, you are now on the North Sea Yao Race's kill list. This past year..."
Bai Chun recounted, and Han Li's heart pounded as he listened.
Good heavens, now he understood why he had so easily encountered several batches of Yao Race after coming out of seclusion.
He was the perpetrator himself!
Slaying four Demon Emperors directly led to an all-out war between the North Sea's Yao Race and Human Race.
Han Li's heart twitched.
He had intended to fish in troubled waters, but he hadn't expected that he was the "fish"!
He was on the North Sea Yao Race's kill list.
This... such great renown, Han Li felt very uneasy.
He preferred to kill silently in the dark; now he was directly exposed to the sun.
Famous throughout the North Sea!
Not good, very, very not good!
"Currently, the Yao Race is launching a full-scale attack, and several Human Race forces have already been annihilated, with countless casualties!" Bai Chun sighed.
Han Li's heart twitched.
He hadn't expected that he was the instigator.
But what had happened was beyond his control.
"Daoist Li, your strength is so formidable. If you can resist the Yao Race and save the North Sea Human Race forces, that would also be a great Karma." Looking at Han Li, Bai Chun said with a serious expression.
Han Li: "..."
He lowered his head, not knowing what to say.
Han Li hadn't expected the North Sea's current situation to be so complex.
He had also become a thorn in the Yao Race's side.
Although his strength was sufficient to traverse the Divine Aperture Realm, against Demon Emperors in the Divine Hidden Realm or even the Yuanshen Realm, he was definitely not an opponent.
For the first time, he was caught in the eye of the storm.
"Daoist Li, you don't need to worry about these things. In fact, there has always been conflict between the North Sea Yao Race and Human Race. This incident of yours is merely a fuse. Even if war doesn't break out now, it will be unavoidable in the future." Bai Chun looked at him and said.
Han Li looked up at Bai Chun.
"Daoist Li, many forces are still in crisis. If Fellow Daoist can join forces, then our Human Race will have a greater chance of victory. What do you think, Fellow Daoist?" Bai Chun looked at him and said.
"Yes, no problem. Since I am the cause, I, Li (humble), will not shirk my responsibility." Han Li nodded.
He understood. Although he had become a thorn in the North Sea Yao Race's side, he was not to be trifled with.
Anyway, his plan was also to slay demons, and the current situation was just the right time for him to massively harvest blood Qi and life essence and blood.
With enough blood Qi and life essence and blood, his strength could also rapidly soar.
At that time, even if he couldn't defeat the top Demon Emperors of the Yao Race, he could still run away.
"Haha, Daoist Li is truly a man of strong character. I, Bai (humble), on behalf of the North Sea Human Race forces, welcome Fellow Daoist." Bai Chun smiled.
"The demons at this location have been eliminated, Daoist Han. Let's rest for a while. I need to make some arrangements. We'll depart for the next location in about an hour, how about that?" Bai Chun looked at Han Li and said.
"No problem." Han Li nodded.
"Alright then, leave a mark. Once I've handled things, I'll contact Fellow Daoist." Bai Chun said, and Han Li immediately took out a sound transmission bell and exchanged sound transmission imprints with Bai Chun.
Immediately, Bai Chun's figure moved and disappeared before him.
At this moment, cheers of relief erupted throughout the island.
Under Bai Chun's command, the remaining Human Race forces on the island gathered.
Han Li's figure moved. He casually found a spot in a corner of the island, set up a simple Formation, and directly entered the embroidered rivers and mountains map.
Looking at the mountain of piled-up corpses, Han Li activated his Magic Power and quickly began to extract life essence and blood.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Han Li had extracted a large amount of life essence and blood, and combined with the life essence and blood of that Flood Dragon Demon Emperor, he swallowed it all.
A brilliant demonic light emanated from his body.
Demonic Qi surged around Han Li's body, and the Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art operated at full power.
He devoured the power of life essence and blood, transforming it into True Devil Power to enhance his Physical Body.
In the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Han Li had completely absorbed it.
His True Devil Power had increased again by a portion, and his Physical Body had improved, but there was no obvious progress.
His Physical Body, having Cultivated the Dragon Elephant Overlord Body Art, was already very strong. Unless he broke through to the second stage of the True Devil Body, the change would not be too significant.
Feeling the True Devil Power surging within his body, Han Li made a rough estimate in his heart.
A Divine Aperture Realm Elementary Demon Emperor, plus hundreds of thousands of demons and tens of thousands of Human Race Martial Artists' essence and blood, only advanced him by about eleven percent.
The second stage of the True Devil Body, all combined, only increased to twelve percent.
"At this rate of improvement, I still need to kill at least eight to nine Demon Emperors to completely break through to the second stage of the True Devil Body."
Han Li calculated in his mind.
This Flood Dragon Demon Emperor was probably a Middle Stage Divine Aperture Realm Demon Emperor. If it were a Peak Divine Aperture Realm Demon Emperor, he could have gained more, but even then, he would still need to slay at least eight Demon Emperors to possibly break through.
"The current chaotic situation is not a problem..."
A thought flashed through his mind, Han Li calmed his emotions, and then began to release blood Qi to enhance the Dragon Elephant Overlord Body Art.
Dragon Elephant after Dragon Elephant was Cultivated.
Under the vast increase of blood Qi, the Cultivation of the Dragon Elephant Overlord Body Art also advanced by leaps and bounds.
However, the Realm stages of the Dragon Elephant Overlord Body Art were much slower, and it had not yet reached ninety percent.
But the further one went, the more difficult the improvement became, and Han Li was well aware of this.
Compared to the progress of the Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art, this improvement was already considered soaring... Half an hour passed, and Han Li had completely absorbed the blood Qi.
One Demon Emperor and hundreds of thousands of demons, among which were hundreds of Demon King-level existences, provided a substantial increase.
His Dragon Elephant Primordial Embryo reached 7,200, an increase of 1,200 Dragon Elephant Primordial Embryo in one go. His Dragon Elephant Divine Embryo also increased by 100, reaching 1,400, and he condensed one Dragon Elephant Divine Symbol, having Cultivated eleven Dragon Elephant Divine Symbols.
His Physical Body strength reached 522 million jun of power, truly reaching half the power of the Divine Hidden Realm.
Slaying living beings was the fastest way to improve strength.
His Apertures had opened to 121, and he had successfully stepped into the Middle Stage Divine Aperture Realm, with his Magic Power more than doubling.
Vast Magic Power circulated throughout his body, operating in a cyclical manner, nourishing every inch of his Physical Body's flesh and blood.
"If I can break through to the second stage of the True Devil Body, relying on True Devil Power, my strength should also be able to contend head-on with the Divine Hidden Realm..."
Han Li's eyes flashed, and with a thought, he immediately stepped out of the embroidered rivers and mountains map.
As his strength increased step by step, his crises would decrease step by step.
Even if he became a thorn in the North Sea Yao Race's side, with sufficient strength, he could still rest easy!
First day of February, seeking support!!!
