Chapter 1194: Volume 7 Unbridled in the Human World Chapter 1189 Extracting the Liquid
Upon seeing this scene, Han Li took a deep breath, and with a tremble of his wings, he abruptly disappeared from his original spot.
The next moment, he reappeared beside the Array in his previous position and, without saying a word, gestured towards the three Magic Artifacts on the ground.
The gourds, jade bottle, and alm bowls immediately rose into the air and began to circle uncertainly above Han Li’s head.
At that moment, the moon in the sky tilted, and a peculiar silver beam shot down vertically from the moon, enveloping the Heaventide Beast below.
Then, an intense fragrance wafted through, and a layer of water light suddenly appeared on the moon’s surface. As it slightly tilted, something seemed to drip from the moon.
Without hesitation, Han Li flickered and, carrying the three Magic Artifacts above his head, turned into a cyan rainbow and soared into the sky.
At this point, the moon finally dripped a fist-sized milky-white liquid, which as soon as it left the moon, turned into specks of white light, gently falling towards the Heaventide Beast, but strangely, all the light points could only exist within that beam of light, and as soon as they drifted outside the beam, they would immediately vanish into nothingness.
As these white light points touched the body of the demon beast, they individually disappeared into it without a trace.
The Heaventide Beast, originally listless from resisting the Heavenly Tribulation, just absorbed a few clusters of white light and immediately became spirited. It exhaled a burst of demon Qi and surprisingly sucked in all the falling light points from mid-air into its mouth, and, seemingly stimulated by something, its body abruptly swelled significantly larger.
The surface of the moon rippled like water, seemingly about to drop another cluster of liquid, turning into countless white lights as it fell.
By this time, the cyan rainbow flickered several times and neared the moon amidst the clouds, but still about a hundred yards away, suddenly numerous silver arcs emerged with rumbling from within the clouds, flashing wildly and striking furiously towards Han Li.
It was as if countless silver snakes were rushing fiercely towards Han Li, with an immensely alarming momentum.
Even though Han Li had experienced many great trials, the sight before him still gave him a shock.
Fortunately, the Heaventide Beast had mentioned this earlier, so although he was startled, he flipped a single hand, and an object he had prepared earlier appeared in his hand.
It flickered with green light–it was the Spiritual Treasure Eight Spirit Ruler!
Just as numerous silver arcs were about to reach him, Han Li, while within his streak of light, swung the Wooden Ruler in his hand.
Palm-sized Silver Lotuses appeared all around, dense and numerous, instantly enveloping the cyan rainbow in an impenetrable shield.
The silver arcs struck the lotuses, setting off rumbles of thunder, and countless fine electric sparks flickered.
Under such violent bombardment of electric arcs, the lotuses disintegrated one after another, but immediately, a new batch surged wildly from within the streak of light, seemingly infinite, bravely blocking the astonishing lightning strikes.
With a flash of the cyan rainbow, in the blink of an eye, it was near the clouds surrounding the moon, only about ten yards away.
As the second cluster of milky-white liquid just dripped from the moon, in the moment Han Li’s streak of light paused, it was as if he was in a forbidden zone, with countless electric arcs striking from all directions.
This time it seemed even more dense than before by a third.
Encased in numerous Silver Lotuses, Han Li ignored these electric arcs and instead sharply pointed at the three Magic Artifacts in front of him.
The gourds, jade bottle, and alm bowls immediately transformed into three beams of spiritual light and shot straight towards the Silvermoon.
As they just left Han Li’s streak of light, dense electric arcs encased Han Li within them.
An even more fierce lightning strike than before exploded around Han Li, making him seem like he was in the raging waves of lightning, with the Eight Spirit Ruler’s lotuses continuously emerging but gradually showing signs of collapse.
The protected area by the lotuses quickly shrank, rapidly closing in towards Han Li.
But Han Li regarded all this as if it were nothing, instead fully focusing on controlling the three Magic Artifacts as they slowly flew towards the moon.
Indeed, they were slowly flying!
For some unknown reason, as the gourds and others approached within about three yards of the Silvermoon, each became as heavy as tens of thousands of pounds, as if they had triggered some restrictive formations, their speed slowing to a crawl, only inching bit by bit towards the moon.
At this time, the second cluster of spiritual night had finished dripping from the moon, and under the flashing white light, it gradually became blurred, appearing as if it was about to disappear completely.
Meanwhile, the clouds in the sky surged anew, and a massive spiritual pressure slowly took form. It was clearly a sign that the ninth wave of the Heavenly Tribulation was about to start.
Seeing that the Magic Artifacts were still several feet away from the moon yet still gradually approaching, Han Li could no longer keep his composure.
A sudden thought flashed past his eyes, and with a loud shout, focusing his Divine Sense, he suddenly launched a mind-thrust at the moon.
An immense strength formed near the moon, with layers of water-like ripples flickering around it. The three Magic Artifacts were precisely within this range of rippling, and their speed suddenly increased by a third.
Seeing this, Han Li, without hesitation, opened his mouth and sprayed a mouthful of blood essence outwards, his fingers flickering rapidly over the blood essence.
The blood essence immediately transformed into a mist of blood, vanishing in a flash.
A bizarre scene unfolded!
The three Magic Artifacts, originally of different colors, emitted a strange blood-colored glow the moment the blood mist disappeared. Trembling, they simultaneously broke free from their binds and plunged into the void’s moon.
Almost at the same time, the originally slightly blurry moon vanished in a flash.
Only the three Magic Artifacts were left, floating forlornly in the void.
Whether the Magic Artifacts contained something from the moon or were completely empty, even Han Li was dumbfounded and unable to clarify.
Following a thunderous rumble, the arcs of lightning that had been furiously striking around Han Li all entered a dark cloud somewhere and disappeared.
Seeing this, Han Li’s expression did not relax but became even more solemn.
His gaze flickered a few times, and he beckoned to the distance.
The gourds and other Magic Artifacts immediately flew back to him.
Without another word, Han Li was enveloped in a green light, wrapping the three Magic Artifacts and swooping down. In the blink of an eye, he reached the side of the Array.
After glancing at the three Magic Artifacts, he swiftly grabbed the floating Yellow Gourd with one hand. Peeking inside, he flipped his hand, and the gourd vanished without a trace.
As for the other two Magic Artifacts, he didn’t even look at them and directly tossed them into his storage pouch.
Throughout, Han Li’s expression remained as usual, showing not the slightest sign of oddity. However, the faint scent emanating from the artifacts indicated that Han Li’s efforts this time were evidently not in vain.
The Heaventide Beast paid no attention to this matter, its mind and body were attracted to the Heavenly Tribulation in the sky.
The scattered arcs of electricity in the sky had all disappeared, but from where the dark clouds faced the beast, an incredibly intense fluctuation transmitted, preventing it from being distracted even slightly.
The demon’s silver demon cloud had completely dissipated, and it now stood nakedly within the Array, not even releasing its original gray-white demon Qi, seemingly aware that this Qi would not aid against the Tribulation below.
Han Li smiled faintly, just about to say something to the demon when a thunderous peal came from the sky.
A huge silver arc, as thick as a water tank and over twenty zhang long, suddenly emerged from beneath the dark cloud. Flashing a few times like a massive silver flood dragon, it fiercely dove towards the Heaventide Beast below. Before even truly hitting its target, the silver lightning emitted by the flood dragon almost illuminated half of the sky, its presence extremely terrifying.
Seeing this, the Heaventide Beast’s face drastically changed, and without a thought, it suddenly opened its mouth and spewed out a fuzzy grey bead that spun ceaselessly above its head.
It was the Demon Core, critical to its life!
But before the silver flood dragon could reach it, Han Li made his move from outside the Array.
Raising his hand, he threw a Silver Small Shield, which immediately transformed into a silver light screen, protecting the Heaventide Beast within it, and he casually watched the silver flood dragon plunge down, smiling silently.
Upon seeing this, the Heaventide Beast immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
With a “rumble”, the silver flood dragon struck the silver light screen firmly, unleashing a dazzling shine. The light screen trembled wildly but quickly settled as if nothing had happened.
After the ineffective strike, the Silver Electric Flood Dragon did not dissipate but instead coiled around the light screen.
Huge noises of lightning strikes intermittently came from the surface of the screen, and with each strike, the body of the flood dragon seemed to shrink a little. After more than a dozen strikes, the flood dragon was only half its original size.
“Alright, fellow Daoist, you may withdraw your treasure first; I can handle it myself now,” the Heaventide Beast suddenly called out loudly from within the silver screen.
Hearing this, Han Li was not surprised. He gently covered the Array with his hand, and the silver light screen instantly vanished.
On his way here, the demon beast had already instructed Han Li in advance.
The demons’ Metamorphosis Tribulation could indeed ask for a protector to help reduce some of the power of the Heavenly Tribulation, but the victim must withstand about half of each wave of strikes on their own. Otherwise, the strikes would repeat endlessly and never fade away. Thus, what it really wanted from Han Li was just to help it bear the brunt of the remaining three waves of strikes.
So upon hearing the demon’s words, Han Li naturally immediately retrieved the Silver Small Shield.
Without the protection of the silver screen, the Electric Flood Dragon immediately pounced towards the Heaventide Beast, but was blocked by the gray-white Demon Core in a flash.
The massive electric arc struck the bead, causing it to tremble slightly, but it remained suspended motionlessly in midair, effortlessly blocking the significantly weakened lightning strike.
Afterwards, no matter from which direction the Electric Flood Dragon pounced towards the Heaventide Beast, it was always blocked by the Demon Core in advance. With each booming sound, the body of the flood dragon rapidly shrank.
Han Li, watching this scene, stroked his chin, looking up at the sky while pondering lightly:
“It seems that reducing the power of the last two strikes is entirely feasible for me. After all, it’s just a grade eight demon beast’s Heavenly Tribulation; no matter how daunting it may be for such a creature, for me, it barely requires any effort to withstand. The key is to see whether this demon can withstand the remaining power of the Tribulation on its own!”
