Chapter 1080: The Agreement of One Punch
“Brother Han, he only said you shouldn't dodge and must face the attack head-on, but he didn't say you couldn't use magical treasures or immortal artifacts. I can lend you the Skyfox Blood-melting Saber temporarily, which should give you a better chance of success in taking his punch.” Hu San also transmitted his voice.
“Thank you for your kindness, but I have my own plans.” Han Li smiled and replied.
Jiao San and Hu San exchanged puzzled looks, but they didn't try to persuade him further.
“If you have any protective robes or the like, you should wear as many as you can, as long as you don't dodge. You can do whatever preparation you want. I won't hold back in this punch.” The young man grinned, revealing a row of white teeth.
“No need.” Han Li shook his head and said.
With that, he looked at Jiao San and the others, using voice transmission to tell them to stay away from him for now.
Hearing this, they all retreated a dozen miles away, watching from afar.
“What exactly is Brother Han up to? Can he really withstand a full-force strike from that Golden Devouring Immortal?” Hu San wondered.
“This… I'm not sure either, but from what I know of him, he never fights a battle he's not confident in. Since he's already agreed, let's just wait and see.” Jiao San shook his head and said.
Xiong Shan didn't say anything, and was actually the most relaxed of the three. He even faintly felt that this Grand Luo level Golden Devouring Immortal was probably going to be tricked by Han Li.
After seeing them move away, Han Li flicked his finger, and a spherical light screen expanded outwards, covering an area of over a thousand feet.
"A Time Domain... what? You want to use the laws of time to block my attack?" The young man raised his eyebrows and said.
"You can make your move." Han Li didn't answer, but simply said calmly.
With that, he took a step back, adopted a stance to meet the attack, and began circulating Celestial Spiritual Power within his body like a rushing torrent. The *Heavenly Fiend Suppressing Prison Skill* and *Grand Five Elements World Illusion Art* were activated simultaneously.
"Interesting..." The young man frowned slightly upon seeing this, saying with interest.
As soon as his voice fell, golden light suddenly burst forth from his body, his robes billowed without wind, and the front of his clothes fluttered.
Beneath his feet, circles of golden light continuously expanded and spread out, like ripples on a lake, reaching hundreds of miles.
“Swish, swish…”
Under the impact of this force, a large expanse of desert shifted with golden sand grains jumping non-stop, as if rejoicing.
Jiao San and the others sensed this force and their expressions changed. When they looked at Han Li from afar, there was a hint of doubt in their eyes.
Han Li was closest to the young man and naturally felt it the most deeply, but although he was shocked in his heart, his face remained calm, and he urged his Celestial Spiritual Power even more urgently.
“Ready?” At this moment, the young man raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.
At the same time, he also took a step back, pulling his fist back to his waist, beginning to build up power.
Han Li still didn't say anything, but golden light also shone brightly on his body.
Behind him, a golden treasure wheel rotated out, the Dao markings on its surface shining brightly. After flying out, it merged with the surrounding void domain, causing the treasure wheel to spin and rise into the air like a bright moon overhead, releasing soft rays of light that illuminated the surroundings.
Immediately afterwards, Illusionary Star Sand spread all over the ground, merging with the golden sand on the ground, making it almost indistinguishable. However, the light flowing on it caused the surrounding terrain to change, and a continuous mountain range rose up.
Then, the Eastern Essence Divine Wood revived and grew into a lush ancient forest, filling the mountains and forests.
The River of Time seemed to come from the sky, turning into a winding river, flowing between the mountains and forests.
A golden torch scattered countless golden sparks, flying backwards into the sky, like dense stars scattered across the night sky.
“This is…”
Seeing such strange phenomena appear, the young man's expression also changed slightly.
However, he was not Qi Mozi after all, and did not understand the mysteries of the *Grand Five Elements World Illusion Art*. He only felt it was novel, and had not yet noticed that his condition was undergoing strange changes.
"Hehe, what use are these strange and illusory things to me?" Although he felt that the flow of time around him was becoming slower and slower, and his own actions were becoming more and more restricted, the young man still shouted.
As he spoke, the golden light outside his body had reached its peak, the power he had accumulated was complete, and wind and thunder roared all over his body.
At this moment, he took back his retreating step and punched forward.
“Rumble…”
A roaring sound erupted in the void, and a huge golden fist shadow suddenly flew out, seemingly unaffected by the power of the laws of time. It heavily overlapped in the void, heading straight for Han Li.
However, the moment the fist shadow flew out, the young man's expression suddenly changed. He discovered that the power of this punch was much weaker than he had expected.
Immediately afterwards, his expression changed again and again, and he finally realized what was happening to his body.
Han Li, who was facing him from afar, was not relaxed at the moment. The Time Crystals he had condensed before had already consumed most of their power, which made his heart ache. He quickly put away the various phenomena of the Five Elements World Illusion.
As soon as the surrounding phenomena diminished, the speed of the flying fist shadow suddenly increased, reaching Han Li in almost an instant.
However, fortunately, he had prepared for this, and the *Heavenly Fiend Suppressing Prison Skill* circulating in his body had been activated to its peak. He also punched out at the golden fist shadow.
This punch didn't mobilize the Celestial Spiritual Power that had been consumed a lot earlier, but instead condensed the power of the stars in his entire body on the tip of his fist. With a single touch, it suddenly exploded!
There was only a "boom"!
The golden fist shadow almost hit Han Li's fist, and his fist also bloomed with a bright white light at this moment, like a sudden snowstorm, or like the sun exploding.
All the golden light and white light merged and exploded at the same time, and a chaotic vortex rose up in the middle, sweeping in all directions, instantly stirring up a chaotic void within a hundred miles.
On the ground, hundreds of yellow sand tornadoes, rolled up by chaotic air currents, connected the sky and the desert, like evil dragons soaring into the sky, making terrifying roars.
Han Li was directly embedded hundreds of feet into the underground golden sand by a huge force, his bones crackling, and his muscles aching all over his body.
His eyes shone brightly. He shook his arms and slapped them heavily, and his whole body suddenly rushed out of the quicksand, directly smashing dozens of yellow sand tornadoes, and hovering in front of the young man.
After a while, all the momentum gradually subsided, but the entire desert was still covered in dust, making it difficult to see clearly.
“I have taken your punch, how is it?” Han Li spat out a mouthful of blood from his chest and asked.
“How is that possible? Your domain just now…” The young man looked at his fist, his expression strange.
“Your cultivation state has only temporarily regressed by millions of years, and it will gradually recover later.” Han Li said lightly.
Although he spoke lightly, the young man still felt shocked when he heard it.
As expected, after he punched out just now, he found that the power of the fist shadow was insufficient. It was not an illusion. At that moment, his cultivation was indeed forcibly regressed a lot.
“Since you have safely taken my punch, then what I said will naturally count. I will no longer stop you from exploring, and I can even take you to the seventh floor. And you, you have to take me out of the tower.” The young man said.
“If you hadn't made this punch and directly agreed to my proposal, it would indeed be possible. But since you made this punch, some conditions will have to change.” Han Li suddenly smiled and said slowly.
“What do you mean by this? Do you want to go back on your word?” The young man frowned.
“Going back on my word is not necessary. The condition of agreeing to take you out of the Years Tower remains the same, but I also need you to do something for me.” Han Li said.
“What is it?” The young man asked, suppressing his anger.
“Among the people who entered the Years Tower this time, there is a Grand Luo cultivator who is my mortal enemy. I want you to help me deal with him. Of course, this is not necessarily something you have to do. As long as he doesn't take the initiative to come to me, you don't have to do it. After you leave the Years Tower, you will be free and don't need to do this anymore.” Seeing that Jiao San and the others were already rushing over, Han Li changed to voice transmission.
“Just that?” The young man hesitated.
“Just that.” Han Li nodded and said.
As he spoke, Jiao San and the others had already landed, looking at the scene in front of them with strange expressions.
When Han Li used the Five Elements World Illusion earlier, they also noticed the strong power of the laws of time, but they didn't know exactly what happened. However, seeing the current situation, they also knew what was going on.
“By the way, there is another thing I can tell you. When I was traveling through the various immortal realms, I saw two Golden Devouring Immortals at the Taiyi level. I think they should be of the same species as you…”
“Where did you see them?” The young man interrupted Han Li halfway through his words.
“In the Northern Cold Immortal Realm and the Golden Source Immortal Realm, one is a half-grown child, and the other is a ruthless woman.” Han Li fabricated casually.
“If you can take me to find them, I can protect you even after I leave the Years Tower. If the person you mentioned comes to me, I can also do my best to help you kill him.” The young man pondered for a moment, a strange look flashed in his eyes, and he transmitted his voice.
“Then it’s a deal.” Han Li smiled.
Some of the things he said earlier were true and some were false. He didn't expect the young man in front of him to believe everything, so he had intentionally or unintentionally activated the soul connection between him and Jin Tong earlier.
After noticing this, the young man naturally wouldn't care about the truth or falsehood of Han Li's words.
The two people's words were nothing on the surface, but in secret they both had their own thoughts. Han Li had the idea of bringing him to Jin Tong to devour, but why didn't the young man have the idea of following the clues to find Jin Tong and then devour him?
“Now you can tell me, what should I call you?” Han Li smiled.
“Qu Lin.” The young man replied.
“I am Han Li.” Han Li clasped his fists slightly and said.
“Fellow Daoist Han, since the agreement has been reached, we should not delay. I will take you to the seventh floor immediately.” Qu Lin said somewhat eagerly.
“No hurry, no hurry, allow me to adjust my breath for a while.” Han Li waved his hand and said.
Qu Lin's attack earlier was naturally powerful. It was already extremely difficult for Han Li to block it. How could he not have any injuries on his body?
With that, he really sat down cross-legged, took out a pill and swallowed it, and then closed his eyes to adjust his breath.
