Chapter 112: Chapter 111 Han Li Takes Action (Seeking First Subscription)_l

Translator: 549690339

Lu Tianxiang, along with Wan Guiyuan and Yang Tianxiong, the three Great Grandmasters, were situated on a plain where Lu Tianxiang had already been driven into a dire predicament.

At the edge of the plain, there was a mountain towering six thousand Zhang high, and it was here that Han Li hid himself, only a little over a hundred li from the battlefield.

His Spiritual Sense had long since spread out, thoroughly scanning the area for two hundred thousand li multiple times, confirming that apart from the three Great Grandmasters on the plain, there were no other Great Grandmasters present.

In the distance, many other Great Grandmasters were observing the battle, but Han Li was not worried; they were too far away, and it would take them considerable time to arrive, which was more than enough for him to escape.

Even if Prince Wu’an, who possessed True Martial Realm combat ability, personally hurried over, Han Li did not fear him — if he could not fight, couldn’t he still run away?

Huozhou City was about one million two hundred thousand li away; it would take Prince Wu’an at least eight breaths of time to arrive, and Han Li could have already fled nearly four hundred thousand li by then.

As long as he took Lu Tianxiang and fled swiftly, then concealed their presence, Prince Wu’an would not be able to find them.

Besides, there was no certainty that Prince Wu’an would even make the trip. The last time Prince Wu’an deployed was when a Sanzhou regional commander had died; this time, if he just rescued Lu Tianxiang without doing anything to the two Great Grandmasters, it was highly probable that Prince Wu’an would not take action.

“Kill!

Having waited for a moment and seeing that Lu Tianxiang made no move, Wan Guiyuan and Yang Tianxiong, the two Great Grandmasters, no longer hesitated and initiated their attack once more.

Wan Guiyuan swung his sword, with sword energy spanning the sky, forming a blanket overhead, merged with the ferocious martial intent, condensing into thousands of gleaming treasure swords, endless in murderous intent and unparalleled in might, illuminating a vast expanse of territory.

The long spear in Yang Tianxiong’s hands danced, striking forward heavily — suddenly, a hundred-zhang silver dragon emerged, its spear momentum masculine and forceful, the dragon’s roar shaking the world, bursting through space to strike at Lu Tianxiang.

The two Great Grandmasters had no intention of holding back, with this strike imbued with the intent to deliver a fatal blow, to thoroughly crush the Mother of Endlessness and deny her any chance of escape.

Even though she knew she was no match and that she couldn’t block this attack, Lu Tianxiang did not wait to die. She cast a secret technique, burning her vital essence; her body visibly withered at a speed discernible by the naked eye, but her energy climbed rung by rung, returning her to the peak of the Myriad Phenomena Realm.

This secret technique was extremely dangerous, potentially dealing a thousand blows to the enemy at the cost of eight hundred to oneself. It could only last for a very brief period, and if she did not stop in time, she could fall before her enemy did.

But Lu Tianxiang had no other concerns at this moment, facing a desperate fight. She stirred the remaining Gang Yuan within her body and cast the White Lotus Secret Method, thousands of Galaxy Fire Lotuses slashing toward the silver dragon and the thousand swords.

Afterward, she struck out with the Vacuum Palm Imprint with her left hand, and with her right hand, she pointed out the Life-Extinguishing Finger three consecutive times — this was her final act of defiance.

Having done all these, the Gang Yuan within her body had been completely depleted, not a single drop remained.

Thousands of swords filled the sky, the silver dragon roared, Galaxy Fire Lotuses dazzlingly bright; in the night sky, they collided together, and in an instant, the heavens shattered and the earth cracked open, creating a huge fissure dozens of Zhang wide, ten Zhang deep, and spanning over twenty li on the plain.

After the fierce collision, the Galaxy Fire Lotus was completely extinguished, and only three to four hundred blades of the sword hung in the sky remained, while the roaring silver dragon was left with only half its body.

In the next instant, a Vacuum Palm Imprint, dozens of feet in size, swept across horizontally, with three rays of destructive light piercing through it, obliterating all life in its path.

The remaining swords and the half dragon were directly destroyed; the Vacuum Palm Imprint and the three destructive lights had expended much of their power, but they still charged towards Wan Guiyuan and Yang Tianxiong.

Relief showed on the faces of the two men, as they had already realized that the Yinyang Sect’s matriarch was at the end of her strength. Having worn down her best attack, she would no longer have the strength to resist. They wouldn’t even need to lift a finger; she would die on her own.

Just as Wan Guiyuan was about to throw a punch and Yang Tianxiong was about to strike with his palm to shatter the Vacuum Palm Imprint and Finger of Lifelessness aimed at them respectively, alarm bells went off in their minds. Without hesitation, they struck out backvvard, choosing to withstand the remnants of the Yinyang Sect’s matriarch’s attacks, but it was too late.

While the three of them engaged in the final clash, Han Li had already initiated the Vajra Invulnerability Divine Protection. In the moment the other two let down their guard, Han Li made his move.

His powerful Spiritual Sense pressed down on both men at once while his figure instantly appeared behind Wan Guiyuan. He struck with his palms the exceedingly firm and positive Dragon Suppressing Palm, and then appeared behind Yang Tianxiong, delivering two more palms.

In Han Li’s mind, he had rehearsed this series of motions countless times. Carrying out the sequence smoothly like flowing clouds and streaming water, he gave each of the two Great Grandmasters two palms and then once again appeared behind the Yinyang Sect’s matriarch, slapping the back of her head.

The Yinyang Sect’s matriarch hadn’t anticipated Han Li’s appearance at all, and she had no strength to resist. Still in shock, she was knocked unconscious by Han Li’s slap, and the secret technique of blood qi burning automatically ceased.

Glancing at the two Great Grandmasters, Han Li grabbed the back of the Yinyang Sect’s matriarch’s collar and his figure vanished once again.

From the moment Han Li made his appearance to his three strikes and then leaving with the Yinyang Sect’s matriarch, the entire sequence took less than a single breath’s time, leaving the powerhouses who were observing from afar baffled.

Was the death of the Yinyang Sect’s matriarch on the battlefield not already a foregone conclusion? How did another Great Grandmaster suddenly appear, taking action against both sides of the conflict? Was he trying to profit from their quarrel?

Yang Tianxiong and Wan Guiyuan, the two Great Grandmasters who experienced it firsthand, were even more baffled. Where did this sneak attacker come from?

They had already investigated before, and there were no Great Grandmasters hiding within tens of thousands of miles. With Prince Wu’an watching the battle, they didn’t expect anyone would interfere.

Furthermore, their Spiritual Sense continuously covered a thousand miles around them. Having detected no disturbances, they had confidently taken action, yet they were still caught off guard.

The ambusher’s cultivation seemed to be higher than theirs; his overpowering Spiritual Sense surged like the sea, sending shockwaves through their Divine Spirits and causing a momentary halt. Even though it was a brief moment, it was enough to deal them a serious blow.

His Spiritual Sense attack broke their counterattacks, leaving them unable to strike back; they could only withstand the raw power.

He blasted two palms at each of them; every palm was utterly solid and unyielding, indestructible, and possessed tremendous force, easily breaking through their protective Gang Yuan and landing heavily on their backs. Both men spit blood simultaneously.

At that moment, the residual attacks from the Yinyang Sect’s matriarch also bombarded the two Great Grandmasters, adding to their misery. Unable to block the sneak attack, they were also injured by her assault.

At this point, the two had sustained severe injuries. The attack of the Yinyang Sect’s matriarch didn’t cause much damage; it was mainly Han Li’s ruthless surprise attack that nearly shattered their organs. Their vital energies plummeted, and their strength dwindled to merely thirty to forty percent.

They felt somewhat fortunate; had the assailant targeted their heads, they wouldn’t just be gravely injured but dead on the spot.

In fact, Han Li did not dare to act so recklessly, even though a surprise attack could annihilate two Great Grandmasters, he could guarantee Prince Wu’an would pursue him to the ends of the earth.

After circulating their Cultivation Techniques to barely stabilize their injuries, Yang Tianxiong and Wan Guiyuan looked towards Lu Tianxiang’s location, only to find that the figure of the Mother of No Life had vanished without a trace.

Their Spiritual Sense frantically burst forth, reaching the limit of its coverage range, yet they did not detect any trace of the assailant or the Mother of No Life, shock evident on their faces.

The speed of the assailant was too fast, wasn’t it?

Such speed was at least that of the late Myriad Phenomena Realm. The formidable level of that Spiritual Sense seemed to be of the late Myriad Phenomena Realm as well. Could the assailant be a Great Grandmaster of the late Myriad Phenomena Realm?

Did this late Myriad Phenomena Realm Great Grandmaster not kill them because he was worried about Prince Wu’an’s retaliation and thus spared their lives?

Wan Guiyuan and Yang Tianxiong let their imaginations run wild, even less daring to give chase. They were now severely injured, their strength significantly diminished, and the assailant was suspected to be of the late Myriad Phenomena Realm. If they pursued and provoked him, they feared he might decide to kill them.

In Huozhou City, Prince Wu’an suddenly stood up, his face a mix of rage and confusion.

He wanted to rush over several times but forcefully restrained himself; the person had fled into the Yinyang Sect’s territory. It was not appropriate to create more trouble at this time. Since the Mother of No Life had escaped, let her live a little longer.

If he had wanted to make a move, he should have done so earlier. Since he had entrusted this matter to Wan Guiyuan and Yang Tianxiong, they should be the ones responsible.

Prince Wu’an did not wish to act rashly; after all, Wan Guiyuan and Yang

Tianxiong had not died. If he rushed over and managed to capture the person, it would be good, but if he failed, he would lose face tremendously, and he did not have much confidence in his heart.

He had some guesses about the identity of the assailant. The palm technique used was too similar to that of the mysterious Great Grandmaster; it was likely the same person.

And that was exactly why he was puzzled.

That person’s strength was clearly on par with the Mother of No Life, so how could he have such incredible speed, and how could he possess such a powerful Spiritual Sense to escape his notice?

That person had seriously wounded the Mother of No Life, clearly harboring enmity towards her. Why then did he come to rescue her?

Could it be that he risked offending the Daqian Empire and attacked two Great

Grandmasters just to take the Mother of No Life away? What did he want to do?

Could he perhaps want to kill the Mother of No Life personally or subject her to various cruel tortures?

Prince Wu’an’s mind raced with various speculations. He felt that there must be some connection between that person and the Mother of No Life; otherwise, he would not take such a big risk to do this.

“Sigh!”

Prince Wu’an sighed, feeling a sense of powerlessness.

Despite being at the peak of Myriad Phenomena Realm and possessing True Martial Realm combat ability, with power ranking in the top three of the Daqian Empire, he was also bound by many constraints.

Cultivation was not just about fighting; there were also human relationships and worldliness to consider.

Whether mortals or cultivators, all have various scruples and think carefully about the pros and cons, weighing the risks before taking any action.

It is only the rash who do not care for consequences, but such brash individuals often die the quickest, becoming scapegoats, bearing the brunt, or serving as the vanguard…

Meanwhile, worried about pursuers, Han Li fled at high speed with the Mother of No Life.

After traveling millions of li in one breath, he had long since entered the territory of the Yinyang Sect. After fleeing tens of thousands of li, Han Li used a technique to conceal both his own and the Mother of No Life’s aura. He twisted and turned many times to prevent being tracked.

To Han Li’s relief, Prince Wu’an had not followed, and there were no other pursuers.

He had entered the territory of the Yinyang Sect to make Prince Wu’an hesitate more. The Yinyang Sect and Da Qian were at odds, with both open frictions and covert hostilities.

If Prince Wu’an dared to kill his way into the Yinyang Sect’s territory, the True Martial Realm powerhouses of the sect might take underhanded actions, ensuring Prince Wu’an could not return.

After hiding in the Yinyang Sect for two hours and confirming there were no pursuers, Han Li started to lead Lu Tianxiang back.

He didn’t take the route through Leizhou to enter Da Qian but instead took a long detour into the Chaotic Domain, then from the Chaotic Domain back to the eastern part of the Da Qian, passing through Qingzhou on their way back to Zhending Manor’s migrating caravan.

This caused Han Li to spend more than ten times the usual time, but he deemed it worthwhile. The risk of returning directly from Leizhou was too great; taking a detour greatly reduced the risk.

Originally, Han Li wanted to lie low for a while longer, but even the Yinyang Sect was not safe, and since the Han Family’s migrating caravan was moving states the next day, there were risks if he did not return to provide oversight.

After laying the Mother of No Life on a soft blanket, Han Li silently observed her.

At tne moment, tne N10tner or NO Lite was still unconscious, Dut sne was an extremely alluring sleeping beauty. Her clothes were tattered, revealing large expanses of her fair skin.

Her exquisitely beautiful face was also reflected in Han Li’s eyes, as were her slender and flexible waist, her long and fair legs, and her perfect S-curve…

All of it ignited a fire in Han Li’s heart, making him itch to take the law into his own hands there and then with the Mother of No Life.

Upon his return, Han Li had sealed the Mother of No Life’s cultivation and used the Body-Cultivating Furnace to heal her and replenish her depleted Qi and blood. Otherwise, she would now look like a withered old crone.

Han Li swallowed hard. The Mother of No Life, now devoid of cultivation and akin to an ordinary mortal woman, was also in an unconscious state, leaving him seemingly free to do as he wished.
