A Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Wang Yu Transmigrates into a Book, the Dao Ancestor of Rein

Chapter 281 Crazy
"That's Wind Release? He actually knows Wind Release?"

Some people noticed the escape technique Han Li used when he left.

"That guy surnamed Han is really good at hiding his true identity."

someone muttered.

Upon hearing this, the Old Demon of Hehuan was first startled, then stunned.

If Han Li knew how to use Wind Escape, why didn't he use it when he chased him from Dongyu Kingdom to Tianluo Kingdom?

If he used Wind Release, there was no way he could escape back with Junior Brother Qin and Fatty Tian. The two of them would have to abandon their physical bodies and use teleportation.

Fatty Tian has already possessed a body once; if he loses his physical body again, his path to immortality will be completely over.

"why?"

The big man muttered to himself.

"Elder, what do you mean, why?"

Qin Laoguai, whose severed limbs had been regenerated with the help of the Ghost Spirit Sect's secret medicine, asked in confusion.

"Since the man surnamed Han can use Wind Escape Technique, don't you think our escape back to Tianluo Kingdom was too smooth?"

The Old Demon of Hehuan turned his head and said something.

Upon hearing this, Old Man Qin stood there dumbfounded, finally realizing what was going on.

"Elder, do you mean that he didn't initially intend to kill them all?"

"I'm afraid so."

Looking at it this way, Han Li wasn't actually as domineering and arrogant as he had imagined.

The others around also seemed to be thinking about what he said.

Old Qin was filled with complex emotions.

Is Han Li domineering?
It certainly looks very domineering; they've even stormed the gates of the Hehuan Sect.

However, the reason for this cannot be separated from the counterattack by the Hehuan Sect during their escape. Perhaps, without that counterattack, they would have simply pursued them, demanded an explanation, and then moved on?
"Look, he's flown up to the Ninth Heaven Gale Layer."

"Isn't he afraid of the fierce winds of the heavens?"

"Oh no, once we reach the Gale Layer, it will be difficult for us to continue the pursuit."

The Nine Heavens Gale can injure both the physical body and the mind; the higher one goes, the more it consumes magical power.

If a cultivator's physical body is damaged in the Gale Layer, forcing their Nascent Soul to separate from their body, the Nascent Soul will quickly succumb to the strain and be worn down by the Gale. Therefore, very few Nascent Soul cultivators venture into the extremely dangerous Gale Layer to fight. Core Formation cultivators dare not even set foot in this forbidden zone.

"It seems he intends to use the strong winds as cover to leave."

"We miscalculated; we didn't expect him to possess wind manipulation skills, otherwise we would definitely have made preparations in the air as well..."

"What should we do? If he escapes, our demonic sects will likely never have peace again..."

This is the most terrible.

Their original plan was to emulate their predecessors in surrounding and killing Han Li, just as they had done with Cangkun Shangren. To this end, the five major sects all used their most treasured artifacts. Surrounding and killing him would undoubtedly be the best outcome.

At the very least, they should severely injure Han Li and force his nascent soul to leave his body and escape.

Once the original physical body is lost, it may be difficult to find a suitable body to possess. Even if one is lucky enough to possess a makeshift body, one will suffer severe damage to one's vitality, a drop in cultivation level, and a significant reduction in future potential.

In order to restore his cultivation level, he had no choice but to go into seclusion to recuperate.

Both Fatty Tian and Old Demon Lian possessed other people's bodies, losing decades of cultivation in the process.

It was only at the cost of decades of cultivation that he was able to stand up again, lively and energetic.

Given Han Li's age, he should have recently entered the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm. If he suffers a severe injury this time, his cultivation level may drop, his threat level may be greatly reduced, and he could fall from his current level.

This is exactly what they need.

Unexpectedly, Han Li had a hidden wind escape technique.

"Wind Release Technique is clearly a rare ability that only cultivators with wind spirit roots can master when they reach a high level of mastery of top-tier wind attribute techniques. In this southern land, the complete top-tier wind-type inheritance has long been severed. How could this guy have mastered it?"

"Besides, he clearly possesses pure wood-attribute spiritual power, and is not a cultivator with a wind spiritual root, so how could he use wind escape?"

Can't figure it out.

Be puzzled.

"If he seeks revenge against us, how should we respond?"

The Demon Flame Sect, the Heavenly Fiend Sect, the Thousand Illusions Sect, and the Ghost Spirit Sect all began to regret their actions.

Previously, they were convinced that Han Li possessed great opportunities and treasures. Otherwise, how could the pseudo-spiritual root waste of Huangfeng Valley have cultivated from the Qi Refining stage to the mid-Nascent Soul stage in just over two hundred years?

This is not reasonable.

Even if this guy managed to get on the good side of some powerful figures in the Great Jin Dynasty, it shouldn't have happened so quickly.

Driven by greed and self-interest, coupled with the grudges formed over the alcohol incident, the conflict intensified. It was under the influence of Yi Laomo of the Hehuan Sect and his various promises and concessions that they boarded the Hehuan Sect's pirate ship.

"Damn it."

After calming down, they were filled with regret and remorse.

I feel like I've been completely screwed over by the Hehuan Sect.

"What should I do?"

Many people are worried about this.

She was afraid that she might run into Han Li when she was out alone in the future.

Even for the old demon Yi, his mood became particularly heavy and terrible at this moment, feeling that even his skills as a great cultivator were somewhat insufficient.

Han Li, who didn't know Wind Release and whose escape techniques were inferior to his, was initially only someone he was wary of. He figured he could outrun him even if he couldn't defeat him, which would be enough to protect himself. But Han Li, who possessed Wind Release and whose speed was subtly superior to his escape techniques, was someone he could be more than just wary of.

"How could this be?"

The Old Demon of Hehuan gradually began to feel a bit regretful.

"Gentlemen, would you mind going into the mountains to discuss this further?"

"Yes, we should renegotiate the terms."

What no one noticed was that deep within the Nine Heavens Gale Layer, a hundred miles of tribulation clouds were rapidly gathering.

There was a flash of lightning.

After the demonic group entered the grand formation of the Hehuan Sect's mountain gate and then went into the council hall to take their seats and begin discussing the next steps, seven enormous bolts of lightning, each several meters thick, suddenly fell from the sky.

The speed at which lightning travels is the same as the speed at which a free-falling bolt of lightning travels.

In this realm, the lightning bolts unleashed by Nascent Soul cultivators travel at a speed of approximately four to five hundred miles per breath.

With higher cultivation level and more abundant magical power, one can go even faster.

When at close range, the preparation of moves and the conversion of spiritual and magical power always give people time to react. In addition, the human body usually has its limits, which makes lightning escape and lightning-based secret techniques give people a feeling that lightning escape is nothing special.

However, as long as the distance is increased, Lightning Release is definitely one of the best methods for long-range attacks.

The superior attacking the inferior was an extreme example of utilizing the terrain to its fullest extent. Seven enormous pillars of lightning crashed down, striking the protective array of the Hehuan Sect, which was still in operation, causing the array's restrictions to flash with spiritual light.

The Hehuan Sect, which had been quiet, was once again in an uproar.

The Hehuan Sect cultivators, who had relaxed, tensed up again.

"what happened?"

The cultivators were in an uproar once again.

"Could it be that the man surnamed Han hasn't left yet?"

Everyone looked up at the sky and saw thick pillars of lightning constantly falling down.

These lightning bolts, once they strike, will inevitably explode, covering hundreds or even thousands of feet.

The impact struck the mountain outside the Hehuan Sect's gate, instantly causing the hundred-zhang-long mountain to explode and a small portion of the thousand-zhang-long mountain to crumble. It also burned dense forests to ashes, caused riverbeds to explode and rivers to stop flowing, and killed countless lives in an instant.

The spiritually rich and blessed land was instantly engulfed by lightning.

The dozens of lightning-absorbing beads were filled with the ninth wave of tribulation lightning during the Black Dragon's tribulation. The power of each lightning bolt was comparable to the full-force attack of a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

Once fully charged, each one can unleash at least two or three attacks of this intensity.

There are dozens of lightning-absorbing beads, which means hundreds of lightning beams of this magnitude.

What's even more amazing is that Han Li also mixed the tribulation lightning with the evil-repelling divine lightning.

If the cultivators below develop any contempt, they will surely suffer a great loss.

The seven Thunder Whale Cannons are the outlets for the stored tribulation lightning from the Thunder Absorbing Pearl.

Once the energy-depleted lightning-absorbing pearl is used up, Han Li will throw it back into the lightning tribulation range to absorb new heavenly tribulation lightning, preventing the Ice-Fire Wolf from completing the final wave of tribulation lightning.

If the level eight Icefire Wolf fails to complete the final wave of transformation lightning tribulation, then the rules of heaven and earth will cause the tribulation clouds to re-condense until the Icefire Wolf overcomes the final wave of tribulation lightning on its own.

This is just a small bug in the rules of heaven and earth.

At this moment, Han Li cleverly exploited this bug by using the large number of lightning-absorbing beads in his hand to obtain a continuous stream of tribulation lightning.

"Boom boom boom..."

High in the sky, the Ice and Fire Wolf was terrified as it underwent its tribulation.

Below, the entire Hehuan Sect was filled with even greater panic.

Some cultivators in the Core Formation stage summoned their magic weapons and erected shields in an attempt to escape the mountain gate, only to be engulfed by lightning in the next moment, their magic weapons and other items burned to ashes.

It erased all traces of its existence out of thin air.

"This this…"

"Even magic weapons can't withstand it?"

Some people trembled and backed away, their faces ashen.

Even those Nascent Soul stage experts were now filled with trepidation, their faces turning extremely pale. Some were even chattering, their appearance utterly disheveled, having long since lost the demeanor of their senior masters.

With past examples to learn from, anyone with a modicum of sense would not dare to rush out of the Hehuan Sect's mountain gate amidst the relentless, unpredictable bombardment of thunderbolts.

That's far too dangerous.

They could only rely on the protective mountain formation to withstand the attack.

"What terrifying lightning..."

"What kind of lightning-based technique is this?"

Those pillars of lightning were comparable to a full-force attack from a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator using a secret technique.

That was a full-force attack! Not a casual, probing strike!
Even a weaker lightning strike is almost comparable to a full-force attack from a peak early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

"How could this be?"

Even the cultivators watching from afar got goosebumps all over.

They moved further away from the Hehuan Sect's mountain gate area, fearing they might be affected.

A distant view.

The area spanning dozens of miles around the Hehuan Sect was completely enveloped by pillars of lightning that kept falling and thunderbolts that exploded thousands of feet high.

"Don't be afraid, how could such a terrifying attack last?"

"That's right, the guy surnamed Han can only bluff us at best..."

just.

Their words initially had a calming effect.

After a cup of tea, even they themselves got annoyed.

The transformed lightning showed no signs of weakening.

However, the mountain-protecting formation is showing signs of depletion of spiritual energy and is on the verge of collapse.

"Quickly, activate the sect's treasury and use the spirit stones stored within."

The elder of the Hehuan Sect exclaimed in surprise.

In an instant, the entire Hehuan Sect was plunged into fear, shrouded in the clouds of calamity.

...

"No way? That Fellow Daoist Han actually has the ability to destroy an entire sect?"

In the shadows, someone at the Nascent Soul stage swallowed hard, their eyes wide with shock.

If this tactic continues unabated, there will likely be very few people left in the Hehuan Sect.

The entire Tiannan Demonic Path will likely suffer a severe blow.

"That's...that's insane!"

...

High in the sky, Han Li remained calm.

They even have the leisure to set up a tea table and have a couple of cups of tea:
"I'd like to see how long you can hold out."

Originally, this was intended to be used to deal with the Mulan people's military formation.

Now, it's good to start by targeting the demonic cultivators.

He wanted to be arrogant, to openly tell others that he was unscrupulous and could act recklessly, so that other forces would know that he was not to be trifled with.

Of course, this dominance is also based on the premise that the Mulan people are about to launch a large-scale invasion, and on the premise that the Heavenly Alliance exists and that the righteous and demonic paths have their own conflicts.

Given this situation of "internal and external troubles" and "a disorganized mess," it is impossible for all parties to unite against him.

The Heavenly Alliance and the Righteous Path even wished that he and the Demonic Path would fight to the death.
