A Record of a Mortal’s Journey to Immortality - Chapter 849 - Chapter 849 Volume 6 Heavenly Skill Spiritual Treasure Chapter 846 Battle with Demon Soul Again

Chapter 849: Volume 6 Heavenly Skill Spiritual Treasure Chapter 846 Battle with Demon Soul Again Chapter 849: Volume 6 Heavenly Skill Spiritual Treasure Chapter 846 Battle with Demon Soul Again What’s going on?

Under the Brightsight Water, Han Li couldn’t see any trace of the Demon Soul, which made his heart sink.

He took a deep breath, forcefully suppressing the unease in his heart, then his body flashed with a bright green light as he channeled all his Spiritual Power into his eyes.

Suddenly, his pupils glimmered with a crystal-clear blue light, pushing the Brightsight Water to its utmost limit.

This time, after Han Li scanned the surroundings, he finally noticed something.

His expression changed, and behind him, several huge tortoise puppet beasts simultaneously glimmered, launching thousands of ice awls of the same size, enveloping a small area within them.

Dark gas suddenly appeared under the barrage of ice awls, and a two-headed, four-armed Demon Soul emerged, its face showing surprise.

In its three arm-held treasures-a spell flag, a ring, and a small grey sword-seeing the sky filled with descending ice awls, all three treasure-holding arms gently waved.

From the small grey sword, black glimmering light surged out, a few sweeps of the sword released a murky, sharp Sword Qi, and as for the newly acquired ring, it shook lightly, casting densely numerous ring shadows with astonishing momentum.

Before the ice awls could fall, they were shattered midair by the might of these treasures, and a thick cold fog instantly spread across more than ten feet around, drastically dropping the temperature.

Yet, the Demon Soul, standing within, seemed completely unaffected by this, instead giving a sinister smile before vanishing again in a flash of devilish light.

Han Li’s expression darkened as he licked his upper lip with the tip of his tongue.

This spirit of the ancient devil might be the most challenging opponent he had faced since entering the realm of immortal cultivators.

Even a small misstep might lead to his demise.

Although he had pushed the Brightsight Water to its limit, the invisibly concealed Demon Soul in the devilish light became extremely blurred.

Even with its rapid flying and escaping, he couldn’t lock onto its exact position, seeing only fleeting, faint shadows.

Only when the Demon Soul slowed slightly or stopped was he able to barely keep up.

This put Han Li immediately at a disadvantage.

Moreover, fully utilizing the Brightsight Water put an immense strain on his eyes, making it impossible to sustain this Divine Skill continuously.

Once the power of the Brightsight Water weakened even slightly, he couldn’t even see the shadow of his opponent.

Han Li was naturally frustrated.

The only strategy was to break the opponent’s concealment in a short time or force the opponent to abandon this technique.

Making the opponent believe that hiding in the devilish light was useless against him was essential.

Otherwise, continuing to fight against such an elusive opponent made Han Li’s hair stand on end.

Thinking this, Han Li didn’t stop his actions.

He slapped his spirit beast pouch at his waist, and a swarm of Gold Devouring Bugs buzzed out.

Han Li didn’t command the swarm to attack anything specific but quietly intoned a spell, and with a “boom,” the swarm transformed into clusters of golden beetles scattering in all directions.

In an instant, the area for twenty feet around Han Li was filled with shimmering golden light, marking the presence of the Gold Devouring Bugs.

This way, even if Han Li couldn’t use the Brightsight Water to track the Demon Soul, the moment the creature entered the range of the swarm, it would immediately be detected, preventing any surprise attacks.

As soon as the swarm was deployed, a cold snort sounded not far away.

Following the sound, the Demon Soul’s black light flashed, revealing its form once again, but it grimaced as it stared at the golden beetle swarm surrounding Han Li.

Its brows furrowed, and with a shake of its head, the horrendous and malevolent skull at the back suddenly swapped to the front, facing Han Li with a chilling, sinister smile.

Han Li’s heart shuddered, his vigilance heightened immediately.

He saw the demon’s skull open its mouth wide, and a massive wave of black ripples silently sprayed out.

Wherever the ripples passed, the nearby Gold Devouring Bugs uncontrollably got swept up into it, one by one tumbling down from the sky.

Suddenly, the swarm Han Li had set up around him had a big gap towards the direction of the Demon Soul, becoming empty.

The demon head grinned savagely at Han Li, then swiftly moved to leap towards him.

Han Li’s expression darkened.

He suddenly raised his hand, and with a flick of his middle finger, a small walnut-sized golden sphere quietly shot out.

The speed was incredibly fast, reaching the demon’s forehead in an instant.

This was a technique Han Li had comprehended in the illusionary entrapment of taking Creation Pills, a method of manipulating thunder and lightning by compressing Devilbane Lightning into a sphere and shooting it unexpectedly, much faster than ordinary arcs of electricity and slightly more powerful.

Caught off guard, the Demon Soul was indeed startled.

The sphere’s speed was too fast for it to dodge or use other Divine Skills in time.

Helplessly, it abruptly opened its mouth, and a venomous snake-like purple shadow flashed out, directly colliding with the Golden Thunderball.

With a “boom,” a muffled sound, golden light flashed, and the Thunderball exploded.

The purple shadow was instantly rebounded back with a “whoosh.” A scorched smell quickly spread in the nearby air, and the demon head let out a pained grunt, glaring menacingly at Han Li.

The shadow that had just been ejected was its strangely long, bizarre black tongue.

Although it was unclear why the tongue wasn’t afraid of the Devilbane Lightning, the mere force of the thunder and lightning had caused significant damage to the tip of the tongue, giving it quite a painful blow.

Han Li saw his sudden sneak attack had no effect.

His face showed no surprise, but soon he sneered and a clear chime emanated from his mouth.

During the chime, the golden beetles that had originally fallen suddenly fluttered their wings and revived, soaring back to their original positions.

Upon seeing this, Demon Soul’s fierce face flashed a trace of astonishment as his gaze toward the Gold Devouring Bugs turned a bit more solemn.

At this moment, the silver-haired elder and others, seeing that Han Li was engaged with the demon creature, also consecutively brought out their attacking treasures.

A white flying sword, a Blue Jade Ruler, and three misty loom-shaped spell treasures transformed into different colored light spheres, charging ferociously toward Demon Soul.

Demon Soul just cast a cold glance at these items and tossed the Demonic Treasures he held in his three arms.

These immediately turned into a vast expanse of dark, oddly-light, sweeping away and blocking the treasures at a distance.

And manipulating these Demonic Treasures was the skull behind him.

Soon after, the skull used some incantations, and the Demonic light surged several times over, instantly forming a giant light dome that enveloped all the treasures of the silver-haired elder and his group, trapping them inside.

He then kept funneling Mana into the light dome without using other techniques.

It seemed Demon Soul also aimed to take down Han Li, the toughest opponent first, before slowly dealing with the others.

Seeing this, Han Li frowned.

Just then, the skull behind Demon Soul suddenly spoke:
“These insects aren’t afraid of my Shock Wave Demon Art!

As far as I know, only a few Spirit Insects in this realm have such ability.

But looking at these Golden Beetles, most likely they are the well-known Gold Devouring Bugs.

Moreover, the shock waves had dizzied them, indicating they are not yet the matured form mentioned in rumors.

Otherwise, with so many Gold Devouring Bugs, I would have to retreat three feet even without a suitable magic tool at hand.

It’s a pity I’m not using my true form now, otherwise I’d let you witness the power of the Sacred Realm’s Demon Butterfly.

These immature Spirit Insects from the human world would be the perfect nourishment for the Demon Butterfly.”
After saying this chillingly, the skull glanced at Wei Wuya, who was struggling against the Yin Yang Devil Corpses, and showed a strange expression on his face.

Han Li’s lips twitched slightly, his face showing an extreme indifference, but suddenly he flicked his robe, and dozens of golden swords burst out from his sleeve, circling around him.

One after another, he cast Incantations and these flying swords immediately glinted with golden light, beginning to form the Aureate Sword Formation.

However, the double-eyed skull of the Demon Soul flashed fiercely at this moment.

“Since you’re intent on seeking death, I don’t have time to entangle with you.

Devouring another Nascent Soul will enhance my chances of fighting that other guy later.

This body will soon be useless anyway, so let you taste the real power of our Sacred Realm’s magic arts-and just die peacefully.”
Knowing the threat of Han Li’s flying swords, or perhaps no longer wanting to entangle further, Demon Soul did not give Han Li a chance to set up his Sword Formation.

After a burst of mad laughter, his figure blurred and he appeared bare-handed among the insect swarm.

Han Li’s heart sank and, unable to set up his Sword Array, he fiercely spurred the swarm.

Although the transformed Demon Soul slightly intimidated the Gold Devouring Bugs, under Han Li’s forceful stimulation, they fiercely swarmed toward Demon Soul.

The Tiger Demon Puppets surrounding Han Li also flashed with white light, striking Demon Soul in unison.

The Heaven Extermination Devil Corpse stepped forward, guarding in front of Han Li.

As for the huge tortoise puppet beasts behind them, they did not use the ice awls on their backs but instead raised their necks and shot out large blue light beams from their mouths.

In an instant, Demon Soul was engulfed by numerous attacks.

Han Li did not expect these to truly block Demon Soul, but as long as they bought him time to set up the Sword Array, that was enough.

As he expected, though the numerous attacks might not trouble the opponent, they should have delayed his actions enough for him to complete the Sword Array.

Yet Han Li still underestimated the real prowess of Demon Soul transformed into a two-headed four-armed form.

Demon Soul’s demonic skull issued a clanging metallic sound, and after swinging his arms, they blurred, his fingers of all four palms rapidly contorted and formed one strange Dharma Seal after another.

All at once, a ring of extremely piercing black brilliance shot out from inside Demon Soul’s body, the dazzling light making it impossible for one to look directly.

Together with layers of black, dense air waves bursting fiercely from Demon Soul’s body, these violent waves sent the Gold Devouring Bugs and Tiger Demon Puppets tumbling and scattering.

The multiple blue light beams vanished into nothingness in a flash.

At that moment, the two skulls of Demon Soul opened wide, letting out a whistling sound several times more shrill than a piercing bird cry, filled with buoyant force starting to rise.

It vibrated the nearby skies with ceaseless rumbling.

Then the air waves disappeared instantly and the black brilliance dimmed.

A layer of glossy black carapace adorned with long backward-curving spines, similar to the Asura Battle Armor, emerged on the surface of Demon Soul’s body, the released aura soaring directly into the heavens.

At that moment, Demon Soul’s demonic skull slightly lowered its head, its face wearing a trace of brutality as it gazed toward Han Li.

And Han Li watched, dumbstruck, his heart filled with extreme horror!
