183: Baili Mingquan Fatal Order

Purple Heavenly Fire swept over.

The boundless Heavenly Fire seemed to incinerate everything.

Han Li's gaze was solemn as he looked at the vast expanse of purple Heavenly Fire; he could feel the power it contained.

Its might had at least increased severalfold.

The powerful Heavenly Fire instantly enveloped his body.

Han Li took a deep breath, once again absorbing the Heavenly Fire, while simultaneously circulating the Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art to wear down the Heavenly Fire's power.

The Tribulation Marks within his body once again burst forth with light; this time, he could only absorb sixty percent of the Heavenly Fire.

His flesh, bones, sinews, internal organs, and Dantian, both upper and lower, were all enveloped by the Heavenly Fire.

Under the burning of the Heavenly Fire, Han Li's skin glowed like jade.

His flesh became crystalline.

His heart pounded, and under the Heavenly Fire, his magic power also sharply decreased, but its quality improved significantly, becoming purer.

Boundless True Devil Power surged, and under the circulation of the Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art, the True Devil Power within his body also wore down the Heavenly Fire's strength.

Purple flames illuminated his surroundings.

This continued for a full quarter of an hour before dissipating.

Light covered his skin.

Every inch of his skin was as lustrous as if cast from jade.

Translucent and flawless Physical Body!

After enduring two Heavenly Fires, Han Li's aura also vibrated, and his heart underwent a transformation, but Han Li still felt an invisible force obstructing his heart.

He was still far from opening the Divine Treasury of the Heart.

The five Divine Treasuries begin with the Divine Treasury of the Heart.

Once the Divine Treasury of the Heart is opened, he will possess an endless source of power.

Opening the Divine Treasury of the Heart allows one to Cultivate the First Life Spring.

At this point, the stronger the power of heaven and earth, the more terrifying the Life Spring opened will be.

"Buzz—!!"

Before Han Li could catch his breath, a dark Heavenly Fire descended from the tribulation clouds.

In terms of aura, it was several times stronger than the purple Heavenly Fire.

What was strange was that Han Li did not feel the heat of the flames; instead, he felt an extreme cold.

When the dark Heavenly Fire enveloped him, at this moment, Han Li felt as if he had fallen into an extremely cold Hell.

His Physical Body seemed to be completely frozen stiff.

The dark Heavenly Fire caused his magic power to solidify, as if it were about to be sealed by ice.

"Buzz—!!"

On his bones, Han Li's Tribulation Marks once again released light, and Tribulation Power rushed out, instantly restoring his solidified magic power.

Boundless True Devil Power surged.

Within his body, the boundless dark Heavenly Fire burned, emitting an extreme cold, without the slightest heat of flames.

However, Han Li was well prepared and showed no panic, fully calming his mind to wear down the power of the dark Heavenly Fire.

During the Heavenly Fire Tribulation, various types of Heavenly Fire can descend.

The Heavenly Fire Tribulation for Martial Artist is not the same; the greater the potential, the more terrifying the Heavenly Fire Tribulation that descends.

Han Li had already experienced the previous Ten Fiends Tribulation.

This time, he was ready.

The dark Heavenly Fire continued to be worn down under the Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art.

And under the forging of the dark Heavenly Fire, Han Li felt that the power on his Divine Treasury of the Heart had also been worn down by three-tenths.

"Not enough!"

After completely extinguishing the dark Heavenly Fire, Han Li looked towards the depths of the sky.

The Heavenly Might grew even stronger.

The next instant, golden flames descended.

Within the flames, a Phoenix faintly appeared, like a Phoenix transformed into flames, swooping down.

Heavenly Fire descended again; Han Li took a deep breath, and his body was once again enveloped by the Heavenly Fire.

"Clang—!!"

A long Phoenix cry echoed within his body, and the scorching high temperature was enough to melt everything. However, Han Li's Physical Body had been enhanced many times, comparable to a Dao Artifact, and he was not afraid of this high-temperature Heavenly Fire in the slightest.

He also needed to use the power of the Heavenly Fire to open the Divine Treasury of the Heart and activate the First Life Spring.

Under normal circumstances, one could only open the First Divine Treasury after passing the Heavenly Tribulation, stabilizing, and spending some time. But Han Li directly bypassed this stage, using his True Devil Body to resist the Heavenly Fire, directly using the power of the Heavenly Fire to open the Divine Treasury of the Heart.

This way, he could save time on subsequent Cultivation.

Of course, those who dared to do this were few and far between.

The power of Heavenly Fire is something that even an ordinary Divine Hidden Realm Physical Body cannot withstand.

However, Han Li's Physical Body could do this; although he had only cultivated to the fourth stage of the True Devil Body, his Physical Body was already strong enough to endure it.

Each stage represented an all-round transformation of the Physical Body.

Nine stages of True Devil, nine transformations!

The golden Heavenly Fire burned fiercely, and the Impurities in his Physical Body were completely incinerated.

It became even more translucent.

His blood and bones became even more translucent.

It took an incense stick's time for Han Li to completely wear down the power of the golden Heavenly Fire.

His heart also emitted a glazed light.

This was a precursor to opening the Divine Treasury of the Heart.

"One more strike, and it'll be fine."

Han Li looked at the Void Realm; within the Heavenly Tribulation, another Heavenly Fire descended.

White Heavenly Fire, containing the power of the Heavenly Tribulation, instantly enveloped his body.

Pain stimulated his nerves, and Han Li felt an unprecedented agony.

However, his mental will still endured the intense pain, continuously wearing down the power of the Heavenly Fire; for every bit it wore down, his Divine Treasury of the Heart opened a bit more.

But the pain also increased by a bit.

The Tribulation Marks did not absorb the damage because it had already surpassed their capacity and required digestion before they could continue to absorb damage; there was a process involved.

His magic power was burned by half by the Heavenly Fire; within his Dantian, his magic power appeared in a crystalline state.

A very subtle crystalline state.

Like snowflakes.

It achieved a solid state of magic power.

Its quality also greatly surpassed liquid magic power.

However, the newly condensed solid magic power still looked like liquid.

It was in a semi-solid state, not yet fully solidified.

After completely wearing down this Heavenly Fire.

"Boom—!!!"

Han Li's heart erupted with a thunderous roar.

At that instant, his Divine Treasury of the Heart was directly opened.

The moment the Divine Treasury of the Heart opened, boundless power of heaven and earth poured into his body.

Han Li's heart emitted a glazed light, and deep within his heart, a tiny vortex appeared.

This was the Life Spring.

The boundless power of heaven and earth was directly swallowed by the Life Spring.

The Life Spring expanded wildly.

His aura also greatly increased the moment the Life Spring was formed.

At this moment, Han Li officially stepped into the Divine Hidden Realm.

His physique doubled, and boundless, vast power emerged within his Physical Body.

With the opening of a Divine Treasury and a Life Spring, his strength also surged dramatically.

Fatigue and pain vanished.

However, his Heavenly Tribulation had not yet passed; only half of it was over.

There was no time to consolidate; a new Heavenly Fire descended.

Han Li's face glowed with divine light, and he directly faced the Heavenly Fire... As Heavenly Fires descended one after another, while enduring the boundless Heavenly Fire Tribulation, Han Li also felt a miraculous change.

His True Devil Power was surging wildly.

He felt the transformation of his Physical Body, which had already reached one-tenth of the fifth stage of the True Devil Body.

Using the power of the Heavenly Tribulation to boost the Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art.

The Emperor Rank Cultivation Technique also showed its might... A day passed, and after the last nine-colored Heavenly Fire of the Heavenly Fire Tribulation passed, the Heavenly Fire Tribulation completely dissipated.

"Pfft—!"

Han Li spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and his aura vibrated intensely.

It was better earlier, but the later it got, the more terrifying the power of the Heavenly Fire Tribulation became.

However, even in such a state, Han Li still chose to resist it head-on, which brought him the greatest improvement.

Looking at the clear sky that had returned, Han Li wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

His figure flickered, and he directly escaped into the underground space of the desert, then summoned his Spirit Treasure mansion, and entered the Spirit Treasure mansion to begin meditating.

The damage was great, but the improvement was immense.

With the Divine Treasury of the Heart opened, his heart possessed an inexhaustible source of power.

The Life Spring provided boundless energy, restoring his body... Three days passed, and within the Spirit Treasure mansion, Han Li opened his eyes.

After three days, he finally fully recovered from his injuries.

His aura reached an unprecedented Peak.

"Let's see how big my Life Spring is..."

Han Li's mind stirred, and his consciousness sank into his body; at his heart, a vortex emitted light—this was his Life Spring.

Han Li's consciousness entered the Life Spring, a space a hundred li in circumference.

This was his Life Spring space.

The power of heaven and earth condensed.

"That big?!"

Han Li was startled.

His Life Spring space reached a hundred li in size.

What kind of concept was this?!

An ordinary Divine Treasury Life Spring was only about one li in size, and even when cultivated to the extreme, it could expand to ten li in size, which was already extremely outstanding.

His Life Spring directly reached a hundred li in size.

The larger the Life Spring, the stronger the power of heaven and earth it gathered, and the stronger the life essence.

The stronger the power unleashed.

Similarly, the larger the Life Spring, the more terrifying the power unleashed by the Divine Treasury of the Heart.

"Enduring the Heavenly Tribulation head-on indeed yields astonishing benefits..." Han Li smacked his lips and grinned.

A hundred li Life Spring, and this was only its initial formation, not yet reaching its limit.

The Life Spring was also the storage place for the second magic power.

This was also the biggest change that made the Divine Hidden Realm surpass the Divine Aperture Realm.

The Divine Aperture Realm could only store magic power in the Dantian; once the magic power was exhausted, it was over.

But the Divine Hidden Realm was different; magic power was stored in the Life Spring, endlessly, surpassing the Divine Aperture Realm by hundreds or thousands of times.

To completely exhaust the magic power of a Divine Hidden Realm Cultivator, the difficulty factor was illegally high.

The Life Spring was also equivalent to a second Dantian, and this "second Dantian" stored even more terrifying amounts than the Dantian.

A difference of several times, or even dozens or hundreds of times.

The five Divine Treasuries were the five Life Springs, finally cultivated to the Peak, evolving into a Sea of Wheels, with an even greater difference.

Ten Divine Aperture Realm Cultivators could not exhaust the magic power of a Divine Treasury Early Stage Martial Artist.

The change in each realm could be said to be a step, a heaven.

Therefore, after breaking through to the God Realm, it was basically unlikely for cross-level challenges to occur.

If it weren't for his multiple Cultivation Techniques and Divine Abilities, Han Li would not have been able to cross this stage.

At most, it would be an Early Stage defeating a Late Stage.

Divine Aperture Realm challenging Divine Hidden Realm was also due to his Cultivation of the Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art, an Emperor Rank Cultivation Technique.

And then obtaining the Great Luo Swordplay, this top-tier Divine-Grade swordplay, allowed him to easily kill Divine Hidden Realm Cultivators.

Multiple factors combined to achieve this; there was no unearned enhancement.

Without greatly superior Divine Abilities and Cultivation Techniques, he would have found it difficult to achieve the feat of challenging Divine Hidden Realm Cultivators.

His consciousness exited the Life Spring, and Han Li's mind returned.

Feeling the boundless changes in his body.

His strength, after breaking through to the Divine Hidden Realm, also reached 4.3 billion jun of power.

Truly surpassing a hundred million ding of power.

Compared to a Divine Hidden Realm Perfection, his strength surpassed it by a lot.

However, he had not yet reached the point where he could completely crush a Divine Hidden Realm Perfection.

To evolve the Sea of Wheels, the changes in the power of heaven and earth used would be different.

Power can break through, but to completely crush them, it’s probably still a bit short.

"The fifth stage of the True Devil Body has reached two-thirds... With another one-third, my True Devil Body can break through."

Within his Physical Body, infinite power surged.

Han Li felt the changes in the Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art.

Heavenly Tribulation is an enormous calamity, and the characteristic of the Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art is that it can absorb the power of Heavenly Tribulation.

The changes were endless.

The Breakthrough was also beyond imagination.

"Fill up the Dharma power of the Life Spring... then come out of seclusion."

Han Li’s mind stirred, he closed his eyes, and began to Cultivate.

Having made the most Peak preparations, next, he was going to pull off something big.

He could not avoid clashing with the top forces of the Yao Race.

Because only these top forces had the existence of Yao Emperors.

He needed essence blood; only the essence blood of a Yao Emperor could promote the advancement of the Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art... Half a month passed in a flash.

In the depths of the Red Sea Desert, a ray of light shot into the sky, and a figure appeared.

It was Han Li.

It took him half a month, consuming a Low Grade Spiritual Vein and a million Spirit Stones, for Han Li to completely fill the Dharma power of his Life Spring.

The Dharma power of the Life Spring was his second life.

The Dharma power contained within it was also dozens of times that of his Dantian.

Thus, even if he engaged in a continuous top-level battle, he would not worry about his Dharma power running out.

The scorching sun rose into the sky, Han Li stood in the Void Realm, looked around, took out his ruyi compass to pinpoint his location, Han Li confirmed his direction, and headed directly towards the Mortal Domain.

He had already eliminated quite a few Yao Emperors from the Suspended Mountain, and although there were still many, Han Li could not continue to take risks.

In other domains, there were still many major Yao Race forces.

If he eliminated four or five from one major force, he could still kill several hundred Yao Emperor level existences.

A direct confrontation was definitely not his style; covert hunting was his forte... "Whoosh—!"

In the depths of the Void Realm, a golden light, like a meteor streaking across the sky, appeared above a Gobi Desert.

He himself had stepped out of the Red Sea Desert, and now, he had entered the territory of the Mortal Domain.

Although Han Li didn't understand the situation in the Mortal Domain, it didn't matter; he could find a place with Humans and Demonic Beasts, grab one and ask, and he would know.

"Boom—!!!"

As he traveled, Han Li suddenly felt a violent fluctuation coming from the depths of the Void Realm, shaking the Void Realm.

Han Li immediately stopped, looked into the depths of the Void Realm, and with a sweep of his Divine Sense, a hundred miles away, in the vast Gobi Desert Void Realm, several figures were engaged in fierce combat.

Demonic Beasts and Humans were clashing.

Two Yao Emperors were besieging a God Realm Martial Artist.

"Divine Aperture Realm Middle Stage..."

Han Li could roughly judge.

The two Yao Emperors were only Divine Aperture Realm Middle Stage existences, and that God Realm Martial Artist was also merely a Divine Aperture Realm Middle Stage.

Holding a Dao Artifact, facing the siege of two Yao Emperors, he was clearly at a disadvantage.

"I'll eliminate these two Yao Emperors, and then I can ask about the situation in the Mortal Domain."

Han Li’s thoughts raced, his Kun Peng Wings vibrated, tearing through the Void Realm and disappearing...

In the Gobi Desert Void Realm, a mysterious-robed middle-aged man was fighting two Yao Emperors, spitting blood.

Two against one, even with the Dao Artifact’s enhancement, he couldn’t withstand the attacks of the two Yao Emperors.

"Boom—!"

With a collision, their figures separated, and the mysterious-robed middle-aged man stood in the Void Realm, his aura trembling.

The two Yao Emperors surrounded him from left and right, a ferocious grin on their faces.

They hadn't revealed their true forms, yet in human form, they already had the upper hand.

"Still trying to resist stubbornly? Do you have the ability?" one of the Yao Emperors laughed and spoke.

The mysterious-robed middle-aged man's face was extremely grim.

However, at this very moment, the Void Realm suddenly split open, brilliant starlight bloomed, and a terrifying starlight Sword Qi descended from the Void Realm, directly striking one of the Yao Emperors.

"!!!"

The sudden change startled both Yao Emperors, and the mysterious-robed middle-aged man was also momentarily stunned.

And the Yao Emperor locked by the starlight Sword Qi showed fear on his face.

With this sword, he felt the aura of death.

"Buzz—!!" Without hesitation, he immediately activated his demonic power, forming a thick armor that enveloped his entire body.

"Chirp!"

The starlight sword directly pierced through the armor, the Yao Emperor spat out a mouthful of blood, and his figure retreated a hundred zhang.

However, before he could even catch his breath, a Black Shirt Youth silently appeared behind him, his fist landing on the Yao Emperor's body, directly piercing through his body, exploding his heart, and obliterating his life force.

Immediately, the Black Shirt Youth waved his hand, and divine light swept over, transforming the Yao Emperor's Physical Body into its original form, which he then collected.

Everything happened in a brief instant.

The remaining Yao Emperor and the mysterious-robed middle-aged man watched this scene, their pupils shrinking sharply.

"Buzz—!!"

The last Yao Emperor quickly reacted, and without hesitation, cast a spell to escape into the Void Realm, disappearing instantly.

The Black Shirt Youth stood in the Void Realm, looking at the disappearing Yao Emperor, raised his hand and threw a punch, and behind him, nine terrifying purple Demonic Dragons appeared.

"Roar—!!"

The Demonic Dragons roared, their voices shaking heaven and earth, and with a punch, nine purple Demonic Dragons plunged into the Void Realm.

Dozens of miles away, space collapsed, and purple light flashed.

"Boom!!"

A figure fell from the Void Realm, smashing directly into the Gobi Desert, like a meteor falling to the earth, cracking the ground, and a hundred zhang of dust rose into the sky.

And the one who fell to the earth was precisely the fleeing Yao Emperor; at this moment, this Yao Emperor's life force completely vanished.

One strike, obliterated.

Divine light swept over, and under the gaze of the mysterious-robed middle-aged man, the Black Shirt Youth directly collected the Yao Emperor's Physical Body.

"!!!"

Looking at the Black Shirt Youth in front of him, the mysterious-robed middle-aged man's heart pounded.

At this moment, he finally fully recovered, sensing the aura on the Black Shirt Youth, a Cultivation of Divine Hidden Realm Early Stage, but the power he could unleash was far more than that.

"Human Race..."

Sensing that the Black Shirt Youth had no Yao Race aura, the mysterious-robed middle-aged man secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"This one is Gao Tian, thank you, Fellow Daoist, for your assistance." Gao Tian cupped his hands in a respectful bow.

To be able to easily slay two Yao Emperors, the Black Shirt Youth in front of him could certainly kill him as well.

He dared not run; the fleeing Yao Emperor was an example of that outcome.

At the very least, he was a Human Race Supreme, so he wouldn't kill him on sight.

Han Li looked at the mysterious-robed middle-aged man, swept his gaze over him, and with a wave of his hand, a divine light entered the mysterious-robed middle-aged man's body.

As the divine light approached, Gao Tian was startled, but in the next second, he felt the changes within his body; his Dharma power had recovered by more than half, and his injuries had also recovered significantly.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist." Gao Tian again cupped his hands and bowed.

Han Li flicked his sleeve, and divine light swept over; in the next second, he and Gao Tian disappeared into the Void Realm, and instantly, they arrived on a patch of ground in the Gobi Desert.

Being brought here by Han Li, Gao Tian’s mind was tense.

What did he want to do?

Was he going to kill himself?

But that shouldn't be the case; killing him probably wouldn't require such extra effort.

"How did you end up being pursued by two Yao Emperors?" Han Li's voice sounded, pulling Gao Tian's thoughts back.

Gao Tian immediately regained his senses, looked at the Black Shirt Youth in front of him, and said, "I don't know either."

"Hmm?"

Han Li looked at Gao Tian, his gaze narrowing.

Seeing Han Li's gaze, Gao Tian's expression changed, and he hurriedly said, "Fellow Daoist, I really don't know why; I just happened to encounter these two Yao Emperors."

"Is the Mortal Domain so chaotic?" Han Li was surprised to hear this.

Killing on sight, it didn't seem to be like this in the Dust Domain back then.

Was it caused by some special event?

"Fellow Daoist, I have a guess, but I don't know if it's accurate, it might be related." Gao Tian looked at the Black Shirt Youth and spoke.

Hearing this, Han Li looked at Gao Tian: "Tell me."

Gao Tian took a deep breath and said, "It might be related to the kill order issued from the Dust Domain a few months ago."

"Kill order?"

Han Li was astonished, looking at Gao Tian.

"What kill order?"

Gao Tian: "I heard that in the Dust Domain, several Yao Emperors from the Suspended Mountain were killed by a mysterious Human Race Cultivator, at least seven or eight Yao Emperors died, and the Suspended Mountain was furious, directly issuing a kill order to other major Yao Race forces. This news also led some Yao Race members to carry out a massacre against our Human Race; several Sect forces were annihilated as a result. I think it should be because of this reason that those two Yao Race members attacked me."

Suspended Mountain, seven or eight Yao Emperors dead... Hearing this, Han Li's expression became a little strange.

He seemed to have killed exactly seven Yao Emperors at that time.

Could it be that the Suspended Mountain's kill order was for him?!

But that wasn't right; he had already left the Suspended Mountain before their reinforcements arrived, and he hadn't encountered any pursuit, had he?

Han Li's thoughts turned, and he mused that perhaps it was the work of other Human Race experts.

It shouldn't be him; if it really were him, how come he hadn't encountered anything?

Or was it that he had coincidentally avoided it?

"Do you know who the Suspended Mountain's kill order is for?"

Regaining his senses, Han Li looked at Gao Tian and asked.

Gao Tian shook his head and said, "I don't know about that."

"Don't know..." Han Li frowned.

Gao Tian looked at Han Li's expression and said, "But I know this person is from the Qiankun Holy Land in the Central Continent."

"Qiankun Holy Land!"

Hearing this, Han Li was astonished.

"Yes, and I've seen the kill order and know what this person looks like, but I don't know which specific person from the Qiankun Holy Land it is." Gao Tian nodded and said.

"Then let me see."

Han Li became interested.

Gao Tian nodded, and then, Dharma power surged, and a very clear image of a young man appeared in the Void Realm.

Dressed in a black shirt, he looked quite charismatic.

"Fellow Daoist, this is the person from the Suspended Mountain's kill order." Gao Tian said.

And as he looked at the appearance of the young man presented by the Dharma power, Han Li's pupils contracted.

"It's him!"

With just one glance, Han Li recognized him.

The person he met after successfully upgrading the Heavenly Thunder Sword.

Exactly the same, no doubt about it.

His name was... Shen Lang!
