Millions of kilometers away, a thunderclap suddenly rang out in the air above a calm and tranquil ocean. Immediately thereafter, golden light flashed, and bolts of golden lightning appeared, intertwining with one another to form a profound lightning formation.
The golden Spell Formation flashed and disappeared. Han Li's figure appeared in the center of the Spell Formation.
As soon as he steadied himself, he spread out his Divine Sense.
After confirming that there was nothing out of the ordinary within a ten thousand mile radius, he relaxed and turned to look in the direction of Blackwind Island. His eyes flashed.
Lu Yue must have come to the Blackwind Sea for another purpose, and it was most likely not to find him. Although he was wanted by the Northern Frost Immortal Palace, he was only a Perfected Immortal after all. It was unlikely that they would send a Golden Immortal to deal with him.
Even so, Han Li didn't dare to lower his guard in the slightest. Although he was confident that he had the ability to protect himself against a Golden Immortal, it would be quite troublesome if he were to be found out that he was in the Blackwind Sea Region.
Moreover, judging from the way Lu Yue walked into Blackwind Island, he seemed to have some connection with Blackwind Island.
Thinking of this, Han Li could not help but think of the group of strange people he met when he returned to the Blackwind Sea. They seemed to have a close relationship with Blackwind Island.
Could it be that they were also from the Northern Frost Immortal Palace?
As Han Li thought of this, he took out a black Spell Plate and made a hand seal.
The Spell Plate suddenly shone brightly. Balls of black light emerged from it and condensed together to form a Sound Transmission Spell Formation.
Han Li's lips moved slightly. After sending a message, he waited quietly.
However, after waiting for a quarter of an hour, the Sound Transmission Spell Formation only flashed slightly. Other than that, there was no other response.
Han Li frowned slightly when he saw this.
This Sound Transmission Spell Formation was given to him by Jiao San when he left the secret realm of the Samsara Temple. He wanted to find out the current situation of the Blackwind Sea through this person.
However, this person did not seem to respond to his message at all.
Han Li couldn't help but shake his head and put away the disk array. He looked at the calm sea in front of him and thought.
The current Blackwind Sea Area was like the surface of the sea. Although it looked calm on the surface, and the battle between Blackwind Island and Green Feather Island had temporarily ceased, there were faint undercurrents surging inside.
First, there was the Samsara Temple. This mysterious force, which was the sworn enemy of the Immortal Palace of Northern Frost, had suddenly appeared in the Black Wind Sea Area. They even used both carrot and stick to recruit Ye Futian to refine strange elixirs. Ye Futian did not know what they were plotting. Now, the people of the Immortal Palace of Northern Frost had also appeared here. Moreover, they had an unknown relationship with the largest force in this sea area, the Black Wind Island.
There was no benefit in continuing to stay in such a chaotic situation. It was better to leave this place as soon as possible.
However, the teleportation formation connecting Blackwind Island to the outside world was closed. If he wanted to leave, he would have to cross Desolate Gale Island.
With the power of his Spiritual Sense and the support of the Air-frozen Pearl, he was confident that he could deal with it.
Speaking of which, he was a little curious about the situation in the depths of Desolate Gale Island. It was just the right time to explore it.
After making up his mind, Han Li exhaled lightly. His body flashed with a blue light. He was about to fly out, but then his body stopped and he turned his head to look in one direction.
After a little thought, a blue light appeared on his body. He turned into a blue rainbow and flew in that direction.
At this moment, in a deep hall of the Island King's Mansion in Blackwind City.
The hall was only four or five feet wide, but it was twenty or thirty feet deep. It was very dim. Two rows of wooden shelves were placed on the left and right sides of the hall. Red candles burned on the shelves, emitting bursts of strange fragrance.
The dim candlelight could not illuminate the dark hall. Instead, it made it look even more serene.
At the end of the hall was a three-level platform. A white-robed man sat on the main seat of the platform. It was Xiao Jinhan.
His eyes were closed, as if he was cultivating. Wisps of black mist emitted from his body and spread to a range of ten feet around him.
A strange aura enveloped the entire hall, making it hard for people to breathe. It was as if an invisible beast was walking in the hall.
Two people stood below him. It was Lu Yue and the young woman.
Their expressions were extremely respectful. Sweat could be seen on their foreheads, but they did not disturb him.
After a long while, Xiao Jinhan opened his eyes. The black mist around him immediately entered his body, and the strange aura in the hall disappeared.
Lu Yue and the young woman relaxed and straightened their bodies.
"How did it go?" Xiao Jinhan asked.
"Rest assured, Palace Master. Everything has been done according to your instructions.
The Eight Desolation Formation has also been reinforced. The entrance will not be sensed by the Cangliu Palace or the Fu Ling Sect, "Lu Yue replied respectfully.
"Our main enemy is the Samsara Temple." Xiao Jinhan's eyes narrowed. A flash of lightning flashed in his eyes.
"Yes.
The people from the Samsara Temple are probably running around like headless flies. They have no way of finding the real entrance. "Lu Yue felt an endless pressure envelop him. His face immediately turned pale and he said hurriedly.
"You must be careful. Do not make any mistakes!" Xiao Jinhan nodded in satisfaction and said in a low voice.
"Rest assured, Palace Master!" Lu Yue immediately said.
Xiao Jinhan's expression relaxed. He silently waved his hand.
Lu Yue and the young woman bowed and left. Only when they were far away from the hall did they relax.
"Palace Master's cultivation is becoming more and more unfathomable. As long as this operation goes smoothly, the Taiyi State will not be far away," the young woman said.
"Because of this, this operation can only succeed. Failure is not allowed," Lu Yue said slowly.
"Of course, I know." The young woman immediately nodded.
The two quickly walked away and disappeared into the distance.
In a pavilion far away, two figures stood by the window, watching Lu Yue and the young woman leave. It was Lu Jun and Lu Yuqing.
"Father, this time the Immortal Abode …" Lu Yuqing's lips moved.
Lu Jun's expression changed. He quickly glared at Lu Yuqing and stopped her. He closed the window and walked into the depths of the pavilion.
Lu Yuqing secretly stuck out her tongue and followed behind.
Lu Jun stopped in a room in the depths of the pavilion. He waved both his hands and formed a spell.
A series of seals appeared around the room. There were at least seven or eight layers of them, tightly wrapping the room inside.
Lu Jun's hand slapped a part of the wall. With a cracking sound, the wall split open, revealing a secret door.
The two walked in and the secret door immediately closed.
Behind the secret door was a small room. The walls were built with a black crystal stone, emitting a layer of black light.
Once they entered the room, it was as if they had entered another space. They were completely isolated from the outside world.
"Qing 'er, I have already told you many times that those people have extremely high cultivation. No one knows what level their divine sense has reached. You must pay attention to every word and action. In the entire Island Lord's Mansion, I am afraid that only this dark space is relatively safe," Lu Jun said in a deep voice.
"Yes, I understand." Lu Yuqing nodded.
Lu Jun's expression relaxed. He patted Lu Yuqing's shoulder dotingly and sat down at a table in the room.
"Father, our Blackwind Island has been working hard for the Northern Frost Immortal Palace all these years … In order to fight with Green Feather Island, almost half of the 36 outer islands have been reduced to ruins.
Now that the Immortal Palace has appeared, can't you give us a spot? "Lu Yuqing asked with some dissatisfaction.
Lu Jun's face twitched. He said bitterly, "What kind of existence is the Northern Frost Immortal Palace? Our Blackwind Island is nothing in their eyes."
Lu Yuqing's face became even more furious when she heard this.
"Forget it. Don't have such extravagant hopes. I only hope that after this matter ends, the Northern Frost Immortal Palace will fulfill their promise and no longer interfere with the matters of our Blackwind Sea Area," Lu Jun sighed.
…
Half a month later.
Tens of thousands of miles away from Wu Meng Island, Han Li's figure emerged from a lightning formation.
He swept his gaze around and flew in the direction of Wu Meng Island.
After a while, the void near Wu Meng Island flashed, and Han Li's figure appeared in a flash.
He looked down at the intact Wu Meng Island and relaxed slightly. It seemed that the strange and frequent natural disasters from before had not affected this place.
The entire island was still in a state of seclusion, and the various restrictions were still operating.
Han Li pondered for a moment and took out a storage bracelet.
He waved his hand and a green light wrapped around the storage bracelet. Then, he disappeared in a flash.
In a secret room on Blackwind Island, Luo Feng sat cross-legged. His body was surrounded by a clear light, which changed into various shapes from time to time like smoke. He seemed to be cultivating a secret technique.
At this moment, a ball of green light appeared out of nowhere in front of him. There was a storage bracelet inside.
The green light dissipated in a flash, and the bracelet fell to the ground with a clatter.
The green light on Luo Feng's body trembled and then completely dissipated. He opened his eyes.
He was slightly startled when he saw the storage bracelet on the ground. At this moment, he heard Han Li's voice.
"For the remaining hundred years, continue to seal the island and recuperate."
"Yes!" Luo Feng hurriedly stood up and respectfully cupped his fists.
However, apart from the previous voice, there was no other sound.
Luo Feng waited for a while before picking up the storage bracelet on the ground. He released his Divine Sense into it, and his face immediately lit up.
There was a large amount of Spirit Stones and materials in the storage bracelet. It was enough for Wu Meng Island to use for hundreds of years.
At this moment, Han Li had already arrived at the place where the Earthly Deity's incarnation was cultivating.
He had taken a detour back to Wu Meng Island to check on the situation on the island. The most important reason was to take away the Heavy Water that the Earthly Deity's incarnation had refined over the years.
Han Li's figure floated in the air as he looked down at the huge whirlpool that was rumbling on the surface of the sea. A trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes.
The whirlpool had a circumference of a thousand miles. Wherever it passed, the waves would surge, forming waves that were over a hundred feet tall. They swept out in all directions in circles, creating an extremely shocking sight.
Such a huge commotion had never been seen before.
"Could it be …" Han Li suddenly thought of something. Without saying anything, he swooped down and directly entered the whirlpool.
On the platform at the bottom of the sea, the Earthly Deity's incarnation emitted a dazzling blue light. As it rolled around its body, it formed a huge blue light ball that was dozens of feet in size.
In addition, there was a blue light thread floating above the incarnation's head. It was several times thicker than before, and countless blue runes were jumping around the light thread.
A huge aura was emitted from its body. It had reached the Late-stage of Perfected Immortal Realm.
When Han Li saw this, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes, but he was not surprised.
This incarnation had reached the peak of the Middle-stage of Perfected Immortal Realm. Although he had been busy cultivating these years, he had still condensed some crystal grains from time to time for his cultivation. As long as he had enough crystal grains, it would not be difficult for him to advance to the Late-stage in a few hundred years.
After all, it seemed that it had only been a few hundred years, but the amount of Heavy Water condensed was comparable to the amount of other cultivators in millions of years.
While thinking, the blue light around the Earthly Deity's incarnation fluctuated, and then it converged into its body like a whale sucking in water. Then, it stood up and turned to look at Han Li.
"Give me all the Heavy Water you have." Han Li said directly.
When the Earthly Deity's incarnation heard this, he flipped his hand and took out two black bags and handed them over. They were the Sky Water Bags that Han Li had previously bought from the Anicca Alliance.
Han Li scanned with his Divine Sense and took a deep breath.
One of the Sky Water Bags was full, and the other was almost half full. It seemed that with the improvement of his cultivation, the speed of the incarnation condensing Heavy Water had really improved a lot.
He made a gesture with his hand, and a layer of starlight appeared on the surface of his body. He reached out to catch it.
Although he was prepared, after taking the two bags, his arms still sank slightly. There was a flash of starlight in his lower abdomen, and 18 starlight spots appeared faintly, which easily lifted the two bags.
When Han Li saw this, a satisfied expression flashed across his face.
These two bags of Heavy Water, in addition to the previous bag, were enough to play a role in battle.
He put away the two Sky Water Bags, then flipped his hand and took out three empty bags. He handed them to the Earthly Deity's incarnation, and instructed it to continue condensing Heavy Water. After that, he didn't stay here any longer, and quietly flew into the distance.
After flying a certain distance and not attracting too much attention, he immediately used the Thunder Formation to hurry on his way.
The Lightning-Capture Wood Teleportation Formation happened to be on the way to Wu Meng Island, and he had already collected it.
Half a month later, somewhere at the border of the Black Wind Sea.
A ray of green light flew over from afar, and in a flash, Han Li's figure appeared.
In front of him was the Desolate Wind Zone, and there were black Chilly Winds everywhere. They connected heaven and earth, and could topple mountains and overturn seas.
Han Li glanced at the endless Chilly Winds in front of him, and flipped his hand to take out the Air-frozen Bead. Then, he plunged into the endless Chilly Winds.
The surrounding Chilly Winds immediately surged over, but after being weakened by more than half by the Air-frozen Bead, they naturally didn't have much effect on him.
After initial attempts and adaptation, Han Li found that there were no major problems, so he began to slowly speed up and fly forward.
Due to the obstruction of the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth in this place, the replenishment of Celestial Spiritual Power was greatly affected. Therefore, before coming here, he had spent a lot of Celestial Core Stones to buy a batch of recovery elixirs from the Anicca Alliance. He was very well prepared.
Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, Han Li had already advanced in the overwhelming Desolate Wind for four or five days.
The depth of the Desolate Wind in this area had far exceeded that of the secret realm of the Samsara Palace.
The surrounding Desolate Wind was no longer in a scattered state. Instead, it had gathered together and transformed into huge black wind pillars that were hundreds of feet tall. They were like countless black dragons that were whistling through the air.
The huge wind pillars rushed over. Although their power was greatly reduced after entering the range of the ripples emitted by the Air-frozen Bead, the power of the wind pillars was still extraordinary, almost comparable to the full blow of a practitioner of the Great Vehicle Stage.
At this moment, Han Li's whole body was shining with silver light, condensing into a layer of translucent True Polarity Film on the surface of his body. The wind dragons bombarded him fiercely, but they instantly collapsed and dissipated, like waves hitting the reef.
He didn't trust the power of the Chilly Winds, but there were strange howling sounds coming from the mouths of these wind dragons, which were soul-shaking and ten times more powerful than when he had just entered the Desolate Wind.
Although these strange sounds were also weakened by more than half by the Air-frozen Bead, they were still far from the original ones.
Because of this, Han Li had to slow down and began to activate the Cultivation of Spirit to resist, so that he could bear it.
At this moment, his whole body turned into a black streamer, like a small boat, shuttling forward in the endless Chilly Wind.
