Wang Yu
Chapter 179: Stepping onto a New Continent
A black crescent blade light slashed at the giant clam and Thunder Whale, and an incomparably dazzling black sun appeared out of thin air, enveloping the two thunder beasts.
The next moment, the sun exploded with a deafening sound, causing the nearby void to distort.
Circles of black waves rippled outwards like tangible objects, and everything they passed turned into nothingness.
After a while, these black ripples completely dissipated, revealing the figures of the giant clam and the Thunder Whale.
The purple lightning on the giant clam had completely disappeared, and cracks appeared on its shell, with faint blue blood flowing from them.
The Thunder Whale looked even more miserable. The black sphere had shrunk to its original size, and cracks had also appeared on it.
The giant whale was covered in wounds, and several huge gashes even stretched from its head to its tail. Fortunately, these wounds were not deep, and blood stained the nearby sea area red.
However, Han Li's figure had long since disappeared without a trace!
The clam shell opened a crack, revealing that green-light-like eye, flashing wildly, seeming a bit frightened.
Although it had lost something it had spent many years cultivating, it had at least survived. With its long lifespan, it could always condense it again.
On the other side, the Thunder Whale opened its mouth and sucked the black sphere into its abdomen. Its giant eyes also rolled around, also clearly a bit uneasy.
At the same time, the surrounding wandering snake thunder gradually subsided.
The two giant beasts looked at each other, and naturally neither had any intention of continuing the fight. They immediately turned around and slowly submerged into the sea, heading in two directions.
At this time, on the Trans-Ocean Thunder Boat, which had already traveled thousands of miles away, the void in Han Li's room flickered, and a figure appeared out of thin air. It was Han Li.
He set up several layers of restrictions in the room before sitting down cross-legged and taking out an object, which was the black long knife, with a hint of joy in his eyes.
In today's battle, he finally understood some of the power of this black knife. Although it could not yet compare with the Xuan Tian Slashing Spirit Sword, which had amazing destructive power, he had finally obtained a handy immortal artifact.
However, this knife had not yet truly become one with his mind, and it would take some time to refine it before he could wield it more skillfully.
At this thought, Han Li opened his mouth and spat out a ball of cyan flames, enveloping the black long knife and swallowing it into his belly.
He then waved his hand again, and a purple sphere the size of a head appeared in his hand.
This sphere was not perfectly round, but oval-shaped, and its entire body was as crystal clear as jade, with a deep purple color.
At this moment, there was no trace of lightning on the surface of the purple crystal, and it emitted a crystal clear and rounded purple halo, with strands of the power of law emanating from it.
Han Li frowned slightly. He originally thought that this sphere was the giant clam's demon core, but after a closer look, it didn't seem to be.
It was said that demonic beasts that had cultivated into True Immortals no longer had demon cores in their bodies, but instead transformed into nascent souls like human cultivators.
And after they comprehended the power of law, they would mostly attach the power of law to a certain part of their body. The centaur Tai Fei he had killed before had attached the law of time to its single eye.
However, there were also some True Immortal demon beasts that, after comprehending the power of law, would condense the essence of their bodies with the comprehended power of law as the center, forming a demon core.
This demon core was not as vital to True Immortal demon beasts as a demon core was, but more like a natural prototype of a magic weapon.
Therefore, every demon core was extremely precious.
He shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He held the crystal ball in both hands, and his immortal spiritual power slowly poured into it.
The purple halo on the surface of the purple crystal lit up slightly, and then there was no change at all.
Han Li frowned slightly, and then his mind turned. Silver arcs of electricity appeared on both hands and merged into the purple crystal.
Chi la!
The purple crystal suddenly emitted a burst of purple light, and purple arcs of electricity as thick as arms emerged, emitting a muffled thunderous rumble.
Inside the crystal ball, there also appeared strands of purple electric light as thin as spider silk. Upon closer inspection, they were composed of countless lightning runes, constantly changing various shapes, and emitting a strong force of the law of lightning.
"As expected..."
Han Li's face lit up with joy, and then his gaze fixed on the lightning runes in the crystal ball, sensing the changes in the force of the law of lightning, trying to glimpse the mysteries of the law of lightning.
In the blink of an eye, more than half a year passed.
Crackling!
Inside the room shrouded in restrictions, electric arcs swirled around the purple crystal, suspended in mid-air, gently rotating.
Below the crystal ball, Han Li sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, his eyeballs rolling slightly under his eyelids, using his divine sense to sense all the changes in the crystal ball.
After a long time, he opened his eyes and sighed helplessly, waving his hand.
The purple electric arcs on the surface of the crystal ball suddenly disappeared, and then it landed in his hand.
After comprehending it for a full half a year, he still had no clue about the law of lightning.
"It seems I was too naive..." He smiled wryly, muttering to himself.
The path of law was extremely mysterious, and the process of comprehension was accompanied by various opportunities. Although he had obtained such a crystal ball containing the power of the law of lightning, it did not mean that he would definitely be able to comprehend it.
He had been mentally prepared for this, but he was still a little disappointed.
However, on the other hand, he had not gained nothing.
Now, his understanding of the power of lightning was more thorough than before, and his means of controlling lightning had become more exquisite in a subtle way.
Han Li turned his hand and placed the crystal ball beside him, and took a swipe on the True Water Bag around his waist. A ball of heavy water flew out of it and landed in his hand.
He pointed at the purple crystal with his hand, and crackling sounds were heard as a purple arc of electricity emerged.
Han Li made hand seals with both hands, and a purple arc of electricity flew out from the crystal ball and merged with the ball of heavy water.
Crackling!
As soon as the two came into contact, they immediately repelled each other fiercely, and water light and electric light flashed wildly.
Han Li was not flustered at all. He moved his hands quickly, and streams of magic seals flew out, enveloping the purple electric light and black heavy water in the middle.
As his magic seals changed, the two slowly merged.
Three days later.
Han Li was playing with a fist-sized round ball with some purple thunder patterns on the surface.
This object was exactly the Heavy Water Thunder Pattern, but this time, he used the purple lightning in the crystal ball and the heavy water to refine it.
Although he had not tested it yet, the power of this Purple-Black Thunder Pattern was definitely greater than that of the Heavy Water Thunder Pattern refined with the power of the Thunder Roc.
A smile appeared on Han Li's face, and he turned his hand and put away the Purple-Black Thunder Pattern, looking out the window.
After such a long voyage, the Trans-Ocean Thunder Boat had left the most central area of the Thunderstorm Sea, and the lightning in the clouds in the sky had obviously decreased a lot.
More than half of the journey had been completed, and in another two or three years, they would be able to reach the Gu Yun Continent.
A trace of joy flashed in Han Li's eyes, and he waved his hand again to take out a ball of heavy water.
Before arriving at the Gu Yun Continent, all the preparations that should be made must be done.
...
Three years later.
A cliff shaped like an eagle's beak, covered in snow and frost, was suspended above the sky.
Above the cliff, a majestic pass over a hundred feet high was built with an unknown dark red rock, with a golden plaque hanging on it, with the three characters "Ying Chou Du" written on it.
Below the cliff was a white sea of clouds that stretched for tens of thousands of miles, with clouds churning inside. Every tens of miles, a small section of the mountain peak protruded from the sea of clouds, like floating islands on the sea. They looked only the size of a palm, but in reality, they were majestic mountain peaks tens of thousands of feet high.
These mountain peaks belonged to the famous "He Li Mountain Range" of the Gu Yun Continent. Although they were only remote branches, they were still majestic and magnificent.
At this moment, it was early morning, and the morning sun was rising. Under the light of the pale golden sun, the entire sea of clouds was dyed golden.
Under the blowing of the cold mountain wind, the sea of clouds churned, rolling up layers of golden waves, with a majestic and beautiful momentum.
In the mountain wind, there were suddenly mixed some "mooing" sounds like the calls of cows. The sounds were low and penetrating, resounding throughout the sky.
In the sea of clouds, there was a behemoth, breaking through the golden clouds, slowly coming towards the direction of Ying Chou Du.
The behemoth was hundreds of feet in size, and its appearance looked like a cyan-black sea turtle. The four huge turtle fins were like four oars, slowly waving in the sea of clouds, stirring the clouds and fog, and moving forward under the impetus of the airflow.
On the giant turtle's dark carapace, there was a three-story pavilion-like building ingeniously built, with carved beams and painted pillars, golden sculptures and jade carvings, which looked magnificent and extremely beautiful.
At this moment, hundreds of people were standing on the deck of the treasure ship, looking around with relaxed expressions, admiring the scenery of the sea of clouds in front of them.
At the forefront of the deck, also the closest to the turtle's head, a middle-sized man in green clothes, standing against the wind with his hand on the stout ebony railing embedded in the turtle shell, was gazing at Ying Chou Du in the distance.
This person was none other than Han Li, who had traveled all the way from the Desolate Lan Continent.
Sun Ke, whom he had met on the Trans-Ocean Thunder Boat, had parted ways with him long ago after landing on the Gu Yun Continent.
At this time, the giant turtle alien beast he was riding was called "Xing Yun Yuan", which was a large flying spirit beast, gentle in nature and easy to tame. At the same time, it had a great load-bearing capacity and was good at traveling in the sea of clouds. Therefore, it was often tamed and kept by some large chambers of commerce for long-distance transportation.
After all, not every place in the Gu Yun Continent had a teleportation array. He had just landed on the new continent, and in a situation where he was unfamiliar with the place, he simply paid some travel expenses and took this Xing Yun Yuan to travel, so as to get familiar with the continent where the Zhulong Dao was located.
"Moo..."
With a long cry from the Xing Yun Yuan, the edge of the giant turtle's carapace collided with the pier of Ying Chou Du, causing a small shock before gradually stabilizing.
Under the call of the Xing Yun Yuan boat manager, people walked down one by one along a wooden ladder built on the slope of the turtle's carapace, and stepped onto the cliff suspended in the sky.
Han Li also stepped onto the cliff with the crowd and couldn't help but look up at the towering and majestic pass.
According to the map, this was already considered to have left the frontier of the Gu Yun Continent and officially embarked on the central area of the Gu Yun Continent.
