Chapter 1100: Devouring the White Bead



Chapter 1100: Devouring the White Bead

Qi Mozi made a grabbing motion as he spoke, and time law powers surged out of his body to form a huge, golden hand that caught the golden flame in its grasp.

A pleased look appeared on Qi Mozi's face as he sensed the time law powers imbued within the golden flame, and he quickly stowed it away.

In the wake of the golden flame's departure, the altar finally completely collapsed, and a massive black hole appeared on the ground, with devilish qi surging out of it in a frenzy.

Dozens of sinister devilish creatures sprang out of the hole in rapid succession, howling in elation at their newfound freedom.

The devilish creatures were led by a devilish being that was over a hundred feet tall with a head resembling that of a mountain goat. Its body was almost identical to that of a human, and except it had a pair of white, fleshy wings on its back, and its arms were bright red and riddled with sharp bone spikes.

The crimson-armed devilish being's gaze fell upon Qi Mozi, and a hesitant look flashed through its eyes as it detected Qi Mozi's vast aura, but it didn't take long before its rational thinking was overwhelmed by the bloodlust and fury that had been brewing in its heart for countless years.

"Go and tear those two eyesores apart! They can serve as your first meal back in this world!" the crimson-armored devilish being yelled in a void so horrifically unpleasant to listen to that Xiong Shan couldn't help but wince.

All of the devilish creatures were ecstatic to hear this, and they threw themselves at Qi Mozi and Xiong Shan in a bloodthirsty frenzy.

Qi Mozi's brows furrowed slightly in disgust at the sight of the oncoming devilish creatures, and he swept a sleeve through the air to release a wave of golden flames, which formed a fiery barrier before him.

The devilish creatures charging at the very forefront ran straight into the fiery barrier, and a string of anguished howls instantly rang out as their bodies rapidly withered away as if the life force were being sucked out of them.

Before long, they had disintegrated into ashes, while all of the other devilish creatures hurriedly retreated in alarm.

The crimson-armed devilish being was furious to see this, and it reached out with one hand, which swelled drastically to tens of thousands of feet in size within the span of mere seconds, descending from above like a dark cloud.

The eyes of all of the devilish creatures beneath the palm of its giant hand instantly turned bright red, and their auras also swelled drastically as they pounced at Qi Mozi's duo once again in a fearless manner.

Xiong Shan was standing behind Qi Mozi, so he was quite far away from the crimson hand, but even so, he could still feel his own heartbeat accelerating as a sense of irrepressible violence began to well up in his heart.

"Protect your consciousness!" Qi Mozi said, and his voice was like a rumbling thunderclap in Xiong Shan's mind, instantly snapping him back to his senses.

He hurriedly did as he was told, channeling his spiritual sense to protect his own consciousness, while Qi Mozi stepped forward before sweeping a sleeve upward, releasing a burst of golden light that struck the giant, crimson palm up above with a deafening boom.

The crimson-armed devilish being shuddered violently, and its hand shrank down rapidly as it was withdrawn to its side.

"I'm not your enemy, Blood Hand. Do not make your minions attack me again or I'll be forced to kill all of them," Qi Mozi yelled.

"You know who I am? Who are you?" the crimson-armed devilish being asked as a hint of wariness surfaced in its eyes.

"Take a look at this," Qi Mozi said as he casually tossed an item through the air.

The crimson-armed devilish being drew the item into its own grasp, revealing it to be a white bone badge that resembled a skeletal hand.

"This belongs to Brother White Bone!" the crimson-armed devilish being exclaimed.

"White Bone and Copper Lion have already been freed, and I've come here to free you," Qi Mozi declared.

"You still haven't answered my question yet. Who exactly are you?" the crimson-armed devilish being asked.

"If you were smart, then you wouldn't ask so many questions. Your brothers are waiting for you," Qi Mozi harrumphed coldly, then vanished from the spot with Xiong Shan.

The crimson-armed devilish being looked down at the bone badge in its hand as it fell into deep thought.

Moments later, it issued an order to all of its minions, and the horde of devilish creatures departed from the Origin Fire Palace.

Only after the entire plaza was completely deserted did Wen Zhong finally arrive on the scene, far too late to make any difference.

He swept his gaze over the severely ravaged Origin Fire Palace and the destroyed altar, then cursed under his breath as he began repairing the altar.

......

After leaving the Origin Fire Palace, Han Li continued to fly upward.

He flew for quite some time, and only after verifying that Qi Mozi and the others weren't pursuing him did he flip a hand over to summon the white bead.

The white flames around the bead had completely faded away, leaving it looking as unremarkable as a mortal trinket.

However, not only was Han Li not disappointed to see this, a hint of elation appeared in his eyes.

The average immortal treasure would release spiritual power and law powers even in a passive state.

In contrast, the white bead's spiritual power and law powers were completely subdued, and only when used would its true power be displayed.

This was a sign of an immortal treasure of an extremely high caliber, and at the moment, out of all of the immortal treasures currently in Han Li's possession, only the Heaven Controlling Vial and that golden plate obtained from the True Mantra Sect were on the same level.

Han Li opened his mouth to release a burst of azure light, which vanished into the white bead, and at the same time, he cast a rapid string of incantation seals into the bead as well.

A layer of white flames instantly appeared over the bead, giving off bursts of terrifying heat that caused all of the space within a radius of several hundred feet to tremble and warp incessantly.

The sweltering heat was intermingled with incredibly formidable fire law power fluctuations, in the no more than the blink of an eye, all of the white mist within a radius of dozens of kilometers had evaporated.

Prior to examining the bead's power, Han Li had already taken some precautionary measures to protect himself, conjuring up a layer of golden light around his own body to use his own time law powers to keep out the fire law powers.

With the fire law powers kept at bay, the heat released by the bead on its own wasn't enough to pose much of a threat to him, and he was able to ward off the heat by channeling his Heavenly Baleful Purgatory Arts.

Right at this moment, a clear cry rang out as the Essence Fire Raven flew out of his sleeve before perching itself on his shoulder, where it stared intently at the white bead with a greedy look in its eyes.

As soon as the Essence Fire Raven emerged, most of the heat in the air was instantly absorbed into its body.

Han Li continued to cast more incantation seals into the white bead, and before long, a slight spiritual connection had taken shape between him and the bead.

All of a sudden, a long tongue of white flames erupted out of the bead at his behest, then circled around a lone mountain nearby.

The mountain was roughly two thousand to three thousand feet tall with a diameter of around three hundred and fifty feet, and it was giving off immense metal-attribute spiritual power fluctuations.

The world's origin qi was incredibly abundant on the seventh level of the Eon Pagoda after countless years of accumulation, and as a result, many of the normal plants and rocks on the mountain had been converted into exceptional spirit materials over time.

In the case of this mountain, it had transformed into an enormous piece of metal-attribute ore, namely Profound Copper Stone, which wasn't of a sufficient caliber to be used for immortal treasure refinement, but was very hard and durable, so it was a popular material for constructing fortresses and secret chambers.

Upon making contact with the mountain, the tongue of white flames passed through silently without encountering any resistance, and the top half of the mountain immediately began sliding away to the side before tumbling down onto the mountain face below with a thunderous boom.

The cross-section of the severed part of the mountain was as smooth as a mirror, as if the mountain had been sliced into two by some type of divine weapon.

Han Li's eyes immediately lit up upon seeing this, but a look of disappointment then appeared on his face.

The white bead was even more powerful than he had anticipated, but he wasn't using any fire-attribute cultivation arts, nor had he cultivated any fire-attribute secret techniques, so he wouldn't be able to tap into anywhere near its full power.

Perched on Han Li's shoulder, the Essence Fire Raven let loose a loud cry to express its desire for the white bead.

"Don't worry, I can't use this bead to its full potential, so I'll definitely be giving it to you. However, it's an extremely powerful immortal treasure, so make sure to consume it with caution," Han Li warned, then tossed the white bead at the Essence Fire Raven.

The Essence Fire Raven was ecstatic to see this, and it eagerly swallowed the bead without any hesitation.

As soon as the bead entered its body, its silver flames instantly reared up significantly, and bursts of rainbow flames also surfaced over its body.

It hadn't been long since the Essence Fire Raven devoured those pieces of Rainbow Fire Pill Sand, so it hadn't been able to completely refine them yet.

At this moment, several types of flames were flashing over the Essence Fire Raven's body, clashing violently with one another amid bursts of thunderous rumbling, and parts of its body began to bulge erratically, as if it were about to explode.

Han Li hurriedly swept a sleeve through the air upon seeing this, releasing a burst of golden light to enshroud the Essence Fire Raven while also releasing his spiritual sense to inspect its internal condition.
