Han Li saw this and closed the jade box in his hand, his pupils slightly constricted.

With the power of his divine sense, he had clearly investigated the situation of the newcomers the moment they appeared.

The one flying in the lead was a burly man wearing carved white armor and a hollow mask covering his face. He was none other than the Earthly Avatar of Hanqiu Ancestral God, whom he had fought before.

Even through the mask, one could still feel the chilling killing intent in his eyes.

The other five followed closely behind. Judging from their lifelike appearances but slightly dull expressions, they were all avatars as well.

Apart from a black-armored man and a yellow-bearded old man, there were also two Qing-robed Taoists who looked exactly alike, like twins. Although Han Li had never seen these people before, he could roughly identify them as ancestral gods from nearby islands based on the information provided by Luo Feng.

As for the last one, a blue-shirted beautiful woman, she was also a familiar face. It was Madam Hugu, who had come with Hanqiu last time.

These six seemed to have concealed their auras with some clever means long ago, lurking in the sea area only a few thousand miles away from Han Li, so that Han Li hadn't noticed them before.

A distance of several thousand miles was only a moment for a True Immortal.

The leading Hanqiu moved his arm, and a white light flew out of his hand. It was a white-glowing scythe. As strange lights flickered on its surface, it swelled to a hundred zhang in size and slashed fiercely towards Han Li.

Although this scythe could not be considered an Immortal Artifact, it was still an exotic treasure containing immense power. Before the blade's light even arrived, the nearby seawater was already filled with chilling light, rolling and splitting to both sides.

Han Li was at a critical moment in refining the avatar's divided soul, unable to even stand up, let alone defend himself.

However, there was not the slightest hint of panic on his face. He merely pinched a hand seal and pointed to a certain spot.

A blue light flew out from his fingertip, disappearing into the surrounding blue light barrier in a flash.

Buzz!

The blue light barrier shone brightly, becoming extremely solid, and countless illusory waves appeared on its surface, making rustling sounds.

This light barrier was clearly an extremely sophisticated array restriction.

Almost as soon as the light barrier took shape, the white scythe slashed onto the blue light barrier.

A loud crash like the clash of metal echoed!

Sparks burst out in all directions, but the scythe was directly shaken away. The illusory waves on the surface of the blue light barrier surged wildly, shaking violently with it, but it was not cut open.

At the same time, Madam Hugu and the other five had already unleashed their respective magical treasures. The black-armored man wielded a black-gold Ruyi, the yellow-bearded old man a khaki-colored great seal, the two Qing-robed Taoists two water-blue long spears, and Madam Hugu a black long sword.

The five magical treasures bloomed with soaring light, and almost immediately after the scythe, they simultaneously bombarded the azure light barrier.

A series of deafening booms caused the nearby seawater to roll and surge!

As a result, these magical treasures were also blocked by the blue light barrier and shaken away, just like the previous scythe.

The blue light barrier was like a willow tree in the wind, shaking madly. The surface was once again turbulent, as if a series of huge waves were rolling up. Although it quickly stabilized again, the blue light it emitted had dimmed by more than half.

Although the situation inside the light barrier could not be clearly seen from the outside, two blurred figures sitting cross-legged could be vaguely seen.

"Hanqiu, our grievances were settled last time, so what is the meaning of this?" Han Li asked in a deep voice.

"Hehe, you can only blame yourself for being too greedy. If you hadn't really found that Soul-Birth Flower of Luomeng, how would you have begun to refine the Earthly Avatar? Although that spirit flower is still a little short of ten thousand years of maturity, it is barely enough," Hanqiu said with a chuckle.

"You have been an immortal for a long time, so you really understand the process of refining an avatar very well. This time, you are willing to wait so long and show up at the last step of my avatar refinement, because you are sure that I cannot interrupt it at this time," Han Li said indifferently.

"You are indeed a clever person. Now there are two paths in front of you. One is to hand over the Soul-Birth Flower, and we will leave immediately. You can continue to be your Wumeng Island Lord, and we will not interfere. As for the second path, I think you are very clear about it even if I don't say it," Hanqiu sneered.

"Madam Hugu and fellow Taoists, Liu has no grudges with you. Are you also going to join hands with Hanqiu to put me to death?" Han Li did not answer Hanqiu, but turned to the others and said.

"Although I only met Liu once, it can barely be considered an acquaintance. I advise you not to resist in vain. Since you have already cultivated the Xuan Immortal Dao and achieved the True Extreme Body, why bother turning to the Earth Immortal path? As long as you are willing to cooperate with us, we can guarantee your position as the Wumeng Island Lord," Madam Hugu said slowly.

"Cooperate? So you want Liu to be a puppet island lord at your disposal," Han Li chuckled lightly.

"Haha! Since you refuse a toast, you will have to drink a forfeit. Fellow Taoists, as long as we kill this boy, I will definitely fulfill the previous conditions," Hanqiu laughed strangely, and with a wave of his hand seals, the scythe turned into a blade of light again, slashing forward.

The other five did not say anything more, and each of them activated their magical treasures, turning into red lights and hitting the blue light barrier again.

Boom!

The blue light barrier trembled wildly. Although it blocked the attacks of the six again, the light barrier dimmed rapidly, leaving only a thin layer.

Han Li inside the blue restriction remained silent, not knowing what he was doing.

Hanqiu suddenly shouted loudly and pinched a hand seal with both hands.

The white giant scythe flashed with light, and eight identical giant scythe phantoms appeared around it, rotating around the white giant scythe, like a blooming snow-white lotus, making extremely sharp whistling sounds, striking the blue light barrier.

With a deafening roar!

The blue light barrier finally shattered with a "crack", turning into countless blue streamers, revealing Han Li and his avatar sitting opposite each other inside.

The five rainbow lights transformed from the surrounding magical treasures immediately swept towards Han Li in the center.

At this moment, dots of blue light reappeared around Han Li, and with a loud rushing sound of water, semi-spherical blue water curtains appeared out of thin air again. They were similar to the previous water curtains, but slightly thinner, but there were dozens of layers.

Soaring blue light burst out from the layers of water curtains, looking extremely mysterious.

The five rainbow lights crashed into the light curtain, and with a crack, the outermost layer of blue water curtain was instantly shattered, but these rainbow lights were also shaken back with their treasure lights dimmed.

At this moment, the other blue light curtains buzzed and operated, and the blue light on them surged like water waves. Streaks of blue light flew out from the surrounding seawater, and in the blink of an eye, the shattered blue water curtain condensed again.

Hanqiu stared intently at the layers of blue water curtains, his face becoming a little unsightly, as did the other five.

Han Li, located within the formation, did not change his expression at all.

How could he not know the risks of refining the Earthly Avatar? Therefore, he had long ago exchanged for this "Thousandfold Dark Wave Formation" from the Wuchang Alliance at a great price, in order to prevent any accidents.

Although this formation did not have any offensive means, it excelled in its amazing defensive power. Even if Hanqiu came with five True Immortals, it would still take some effort to break through it.

At this time, he had unknowingly taken out a jade bottle filled with pale golden liquid, and began to pour the liquid from the bottle onto the center of the Earthly Avatar's brow.

Outside the blue magic circle, Hanqiu and the others did not act immediately, and the eyes of the others fell on Hanqiu.

"Hanqiu, this person doesn't seem to be as simple as an ordinary Xuan Immortal, right? He actually has such a powerful magic circle to protect him, and it won't be easy to break it," the yellow-bearded old man said with a slightly gloomy expression.

"Ge doesn't need to worry. Since this person is delusionally trying to stabilize his divided soul with a Soul-Birth Flower that has only been maturing for 8,000 years, it will probably be impossible to do so in less than a day and a night. With so much time, with so many of us, can't we break this restriction?" Madam Hugu sneered.

"Even if it is a Soul-Birth Flower that has matured for 10,000 years, it is impossible to succeed without two or three hours," one of the Qing-robed Taoists nodded.

"What the two of you said is very true. Everyone, let's kill this little thief as soon as possible and divide the resources of Wumeng Island equally!" Hanqiu let out a long howl.

The white scythe magic treasure shone brightly, blooming into a white lotus again, slashing towards the water curtain.

At the same time, he grabbed into the void with one hand, and a crystal-clear blue small sword emerged, and without hesitation, he slashed forward.

Puchi!

A blue sword light, dozens of feet long, rolled out, and an extremely cold aura mixed with traces of the power of law, slashed towards the blue water curtain in front.

The first layer of light curtain flashed wildly, and most of the water light was frozen into ice.

The white lotus took the opportunity to spin and slash down, immediately shattering and breaking this layer of blue water curtain.

The other five also used their own means, and in the blink of an eye, they broke through several more water curtains.

Hanqiu saw this scene, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. With a flick of his wrist, a blue sword qi appeared, turning into a sword mountain, rolling and slashing towards the blue water curtain.

Sizzling sounds were loud!

The blue water curtain fluctuated violently again, and after a while, it shattered again with a bang.

In a short period of time, the six of them had broken through more than a dozen layers of water curtains in a row.

Although this Thousandfold Dark Wave Formation had the ability to automatically recover, the six of them attacked extremely quickly with all their strength, not giving it time to recover automatically.

However, as more and more water curtains were broken, they were surprised to find that the water curtains behind became more and more solid, and it took longer and longer to break them.

Hanqiu and the others' faces gradually became solemn, without the ease they had at the beginning. Each of them displayed their trump cards, bombarding the layers of water curtains wildly.

Time passed bit by bit, and in the blink of an eye, more than an hour had passed.

Most of the dozens of layers of water curtains had been broken, leaving only seven or eight layers.

However, these seven or eight layers of water curtains were extremely solid. When Hanqiu and the others' attacks landed on them, although they shook them and the water light flickered, there was no sign of breaking for a while.

Hanqiu's eyes were a little anxious, and he looked at Han Li's gradually clearer figure in the light curtain. For some reason, he suddenly felt a little uneasy.

He suddenly stopped and took out an object, which was a round ball the size of an egg, dark red in color, with faint red threads visible on the surface.

A strange aura emanated from this ball.
