A Record of a Mortal’s Journey to Immortality

Breaking the Formation (6)

The snow condor’s body naturally shattered into countless pieces along with the ice shards.

When the green-robed woman caught sight of this, she wore a startled expression. However, she soon let out a cold laugh and stomped on the white lotus flowers, causing a violent gale to blow up from the lotus flowers and completely dissipate the nearby mist.

Han Li narrowed his eyes and stared at her unfriendly appearance. He calmly opened his mouth.

“Does Fellow Daoist feel no heartache for the treasure’s destruction? Or does Fellow Daoist believe that my actions are incapable of destroying the treasure?” With that said, Han Li indifferently glanced at the blue ice fragments scattered in the air.

The green-robed woman indifferently replied, “What do you think?” She then pointed to Han Li’s side.

All of a sudden, the shards of ice at Han Li’s side began to flicker with light, and countless specks of white light began to emerge from them.

Han Li faltered slightly upon seeing this, but he immediately raised his hand and released an azure mist toward the specks of light.

With a series of crackles, the specks of white light separated from the blue ice and transformed into a milky-white spiritual light that surged toward the woman.

After sweeping through the area, the azure mist caught nothing.

When Han Li saw that his attack hadn’t succeeded, his expression sank and he stopped his futile efforts. Instead, he coldly watched from the side.

The spiritual light surged toward the woman and immediately converged to form a head-sized ball of white light in the blink of an eye.

The green-robed woman’s expression remained indifferent as she struck it with a spell seal.

Blinding white light flashed and the cry of a condor immediately sounded from within the ball of light. Soon after, the ball of light elongated and the snow-white condor was resurrected before Han Li’s eyes.

Han Li frowned when he saw this, but he soon noticed that the condor wasn’t as energetic as before. Instead, it appeared to be rather dispirited.

A pensive look appeared on Han Li’s face.

From the looks of it, killing the Artifact Spirit wasn’t completely ineffective. The condor wasn’t an undying body, so he believed that he would be able to kill it a few more times.

When the young woman saw the white condor’s weakened appearance, she wordlessly waved her hand.

The snow condor immediately spread its wings and soared into the sky. After rolling in the air, it transformed into a white ribbon and drifted down.

It landed on the woman’s body and disappeared.

The woman held the lantern in one hand and swept her hair behind her shoulder as she coldly asked, “You suddenly stopped running and wanted to infuriate me by shattering my magic treasure’s Artifact Spirit. It seems you have a backup plan.”

Han Li was somewhat surprised to hear this, but after a moment of silence, his eyes flickered and he spoke.

“Since Fellow Daoist knows and is still willing to chase after me, it seems you have complete confidence in your treasure. Could you enlighten me on the origins of this lantern? This is the first time I’ve heard of a lantern-type ancient treasure.”

With that said, Han Li stared at the woman’s face without blinking.

The woman’s expression sank and she bluntly said, “I can’t. It’s better to die a foolish death!”

Soon after, she opened her mouth and spat out a ball of Nascent Soul Flame onto the copper lantern in her hand.

An azure light slowly lit up on the lantern.

Han Li sighed and calmly flipped his hands.

A green formation flag and a red-and-azure formation plate appeared in his hands.

Han Li cast a meaningful glance at the woman before him. He first raised the small flag into the air and quickly struck it with an incantation seal before chanting an incantation.

The formation flag flashed with light and instantly exploded, following which a ball of green mist appeared out of thin air, covering a radius of several hundred feet in the air.

The mist suddenly transformed into a green wyrm that was over 100 feet in length before pouncing toward the woman.

At the same time, the formation plate in Han Li’s other hand released azure and red light. He tossed it under his feet and it immediately turned into a white mist, disappearing into the ground.

Immediately thereafter, the sea of mist around them roiled and surged, shooting out countless threads of azure and red light toward the green-robed woman.

Han Li then swept his sleeve through the air, summoning a small silver bell that swelled in size before transforming into a huge bell. It let out a loud ringing soundwave and flew toward the green-robed woman’s head at Han Li’s urging.

Since he was unable to get close to this woman, he would use the silver bell’s ringing to launch an invisible attack. Perhaps this would be effective.

Of course, in the face of the green-robed woman’s unfathomable white lotus flower and the unknown copper lantern ancient treasure in her hand, Han Li’s true trump cards weren’t these.

Instead, it was Silvermoon, who had already used an earth movement technique to stealthily hide beneath the ground.

At that moment, Silvermoon had already unfurled her Purple Cloudlace and placed it under this woman’s feet.

All she had to do was wait for the woman to make the slightest mistake and deliver the fatal blow.

Although the green-robed woman didn’t know that there were people lying in ambush, she turned a blind eye even though Han Li had already activated all of his restrictions and attacks. She only lowered her head to look at the faint azure lantern in her hand and a cold smile appeared on her face.

She calmly raised her hand and nimbly pinched the azure lantern flame with two fingers. A pea-sized lantern flame appeared between her fingers and she nimbly picked it up.

At that moment, the wyrm in the sky was surrounded by threads of azure and red light, and silver waves were attacking her at almost the same time.

However, the woman didn’t appear worried in the slightest. Instead, she gently tapped the white lotus beneath her feet with her foot. In a flash of white light, the white lotus quickly began to revolve and dance. The white lotus petals gradually contracted, instantly protecting the woman within.

The green mist wyrm was the first to approach the light barrier. It bluntly opened its mouth and spat out a pillar of green mist that struck the white light barrier.

In the end, the lotus petals in the light barrier swept past the green mist wyrm and it dissipated.

The azure-red threads soon arrived, but they were also blocked. Only the soundwaves weren’t blocked by the white lotus petals and were directly absorbed. As for the effects, it was impossible to determine.

When Han Li saw this, he immediately made an incantation gesture.

The azure and red threads no longer pounced forward. Instead, they intertwined and formed a large net, enveloping the white lotus in layers. The mist wyrm also rolled in the air, transforming into a vast expanse of green mist that engulfed the white lotus threads.

As for the silver bell, it flew into the air above the white lotus, and under Han Li’s full control, the silver waves suddenly grew three times larger. Wave after wave, they passed through the restriction and directly attacked the green-robed woman.

For a time, it was as if the green-robed woman within the white lotus had been restricted.

However, when Han Li saw this, he didn’t reveal any joy. Instead, he tightly frowned.

As if confirming that Han Li’s fears weren’t baseless, the white lotus flower, which was originally only three meters in size, once again blossomed without the slightest warning.

The white lotus petals were like sharp blades. With a few turns, they cut the green mist into pieces.

Han Li’s expression darkened upon seeing this.

Meanwhile, the green-robed woman stood gracefully at the center of the white lotus with an emotionless expression. She held the copper lantern in one hand and the ordinary-looking azure flame in the other. She coldly glanced at Han Li before her gaze suddenly fell on the huge silver bell that was ringing above her head.

The silver ripples it released just so happened to envelop the woman.

A cold light flashed through her beautiful eyes. She suddenly raised her hand and brought the azure lantern flame to her small mouth, gently blowing on it.

“Puchi!” The lantern flame trembled slightly before disappearing from the woman’s hand.

In the next instant, the huge silver bell in the air was enveloped by the ball of azure light.

When the woman saw this, she began to chant something, and the surface of the silver bell began to burn with an unknown azure devilish flame.

The silver bell wailed and erupted with blinding silver light in an attempt to block the attack for a moment. However, in the blink of an eye, the bell was melted into silver liquid by the azure flames.

The azure light barrier then shattered on its own and disappeared without a trace.

Han Li’s face paled upon seeing the destruction of the ancient treasure.

At that moment, the green-robed woman extended her hand and skillfully plucked an azure lantern flame from the copper lantern. Then, she looked at Han Li with ill intent.

Han Li inwardly cursed. Without any further thought, he spread his Thunderstorm Wings and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

When the woman saw this, she didn’t pay it any mind and continued to pinch the azure lantern fire in front of her mouth. She opened her cherry lips and was about to spit out spiritual Qi.

Right at this moment, purple light flashed beneath her feet, and a huge purple net that was over 100 feet in size suddenly emerged from the ground.

Just as the woman was in a daze, another woman chuckled and the purple net quickly enveloped her.

“Since Fellow Daoist likes to play with fire, why don’t you have a taste of my Purple Cloudlace’s Jadesun True Fire?” A beautiful young woman appeared from the nearby ground with a smile. Without any hesitation, she raised her hand and struck the purple net with an incantation seal.

Flames flashed from the purple net, and a layer of strange azure and white flames covered the entire purple net. Several azure and white fire snakes suddenly appeared within the net and fiercely pounced toward the woman in the white lotus.

The azure-white flames instantly engulfed the white lotus in the net.

At that moment, Han Li appeared over 100 feet away from the green-robed woman. When he saw this, he wore an elated expression.

He immediately swept his sleeve through the air, and seventy-two Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords shot into the air from his body, closely followed by several incantation seals.

The flying swords let out a series of dragon roars before converging at the center, transforming into a huge sword that was around 60 to 70 feet in length.

With a thought from Han Li, a thunderclap erupted as thick arcs of golden lightning shot forth from the surface of the sword, transforming into a sword of lightning.

However, Han Li wasn’t about to give up. He suddenly took a deep breath and spat out a strand of Celestial Ice Flames, striking the huge sword.

Aside from the astonishing arcs of lightning, a layer of faint blue flames immediately appeared on the surface of the huge sword.

A cold glint flashed through Han Li’s eyes as he pointed at the sword.

The huge sword trembled and shot toward the white lotus in the purple net as a streak of azure light.

At that moment, the green-robed woman finally came to her senses.

In her extreme anger, she suddenly raised the azure lantern flame above her head.contemporary romance
