Chapter 780: Uprooting the Grass

Han Li frowned, and golden lightning arcs suddenly appeared on his body. With a flicker, he transformed into a thick golden electric arc and dodged to the side.

At the same time, he waved his hand and put the six flying swords into the Xuantian Gourd.

The emerald green light inside the Xuantian Gourd wrapped around the six flying swords and absorbed them, sweeping away the green poisonous light and drawing it deep into the gourd. The green spots on the six Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords also disappeared, restoring them to their previous state.

Han Li sensed this and felt slightly relieved.

"Don't think you can escape!" Tie Yu sneered, changing his hand seals.

The nine arrow lights, as if imbued with intelligence, immediately turned and chased after Han Li.

The green light from the nine arrows connected with each other, and their speed increased further. The distance between them rapidly closed, and it seemed they would soon catch up.

Han Li glanced back and raised his hand, flicking it.

With a whistling sound, a patch of emerald green light shot out from his sleeve, wrapping around the nine arrows.

The deadly green light emitted by the nine arrows quickly dimmed, leaving only a faint layer.

Tie Yu felt his mental connection with the nine arrows weakening rapidly. His expression darkened, and he immediately spat out a ball of green light, grabbing it with one hand.

After the light faded, he held a green snake-shaped long whip, its surface covered with green barbs that looked extremely sharp.

Tie Yu flicked his wrist, and the green whip grew with the wind, instantly spanning hundreds of feet like a snake striking with its tongue.

The whip's tip coiled around the nine arrows like lightning and then pulled hard.

With a dull thud, the whip wrapped around the nine arrows and broke free from the surrounding emerald green light, shooting back.

Han Li raised an eyebrow, made a hand seal to withdraw the emerald green light, and the golden lightning he had transformed into suddenly changed direction, shooting toward Tie Yu.

He chanted a spell rapidly, and the golden lightning he had become suddenly brightened, then split into over a dozen identical golden lightning bolts.

The dozen golden lightning bolts scattered, shooting toward Tie Yu along different paths.

Each bolt of golden lightning emitted the exact same aura, making it impossible to tell which one was Han Li.

Tie Yu's expression changed slightly. He waved his hand and grabbed the large bow above his head, drawing his fingers.

The nine arrows flashed and reappeared on the bow, then shot out like meteors.

After the nine arrow shadows left the bow, they flashed and split into countless dense green arrow shadows, raining down like a canopy.

Each arrow shadow emitted a fierce poison law fluctuation, stirring the demonic qi in the surrounding void, causing heaven and earth to change color.

The dozen golden lightning bolts were instantly pierced by the rain of arrows and exploded.

After the golden lightning bolt at the edge exploded, Han Li's figure flickered into view.

He was now covered in golden electric arcs, forming a suit of lightning armor, and was unharmed.

Seeing this, Tie Yu's eyes flashed with ferocity. He quickly formed hand seals and pointed.

The rain of arrows immediately changed direction, shooting at Han Li from all sides, emitting a dense, piercing screech.

Han Li raised an eyebrow, spread his hands, and thick golden electric arcs flickered and flashed, emitting waves of lightning law power with a thunderous roar.

He waved his arms, and golden electric arcs continuously shot out, forming a dense golden lightning net around him.

The rain of arrows howled as it struck the golden lightning net, causing a series of explosive bangs.

The golden lightning net trembled violently but showed no signs of breaking, blocking all the arrow shadows.

Han Li snorted coldly and suddenly grabbed the void with one hand.

With a flash of golden light, the eighteen Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords appeared. He quickly muttered something and then flicked his wrist.

The eighteen Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords blazed with sword light, erupting with countless golden sword qi. After condensing, they formed a golden sword mountain that slashed into the rain of arrows.

With a tearing sound, the rain of arrows was split in two. The golden sword mountain did not stop and appeared before Tie Yu in a flash, incredibly fast.

Tie Yu's expression changed. He spat out a pitch-black shield, which transformed into a layer of black light in front of him, while green light blazed from his body as he desperately dodged to the side.

The whistling of swords grew loud as the golden sword mountain poured down.

The black light screen looked unremarkable but was exceptionally tough, blocking most of the golden sword qi.

However, a small portion of the sword qi still pierced through the black light screen and chased after Tie Yu.

Despite his desperate dodging, several sword qi caught up with him.

Blood spurted!

Several deep sword wounds appeared on his body, and blood gushed out.

But then he roared wildly, his eyes turning bloodshot, and he quickly formed hand seals.

Green light flashed from his body, and a rolling mist of green light surged out, spreading rapidly to form a green domain nearly a hundred miles in size.

Within the domain, thick green poisonous mist churned, condensing into a solid form.

The trees and rocks in the mountains below, upon contact with the green poisonous mist, quickly melted into green pus.

Tie Yu's subordinates had fled far away and were not caught in the domain.

Shi Chuankong, standing not far away, was enveloped by the green domain. The surrounding poisonous gas rapidly eroded his protective light.

He quickly sacrificed several protective immortal artifacts, forming multiple layers of light around him, but under the erosion of the poison, these artifacts also melted quickly.

However, these demonic artifacts bought him some time. The silver light of the Luo Zha Pipa in his arms blazed, and as his ten fingers swiftly plucked, silver runes shot out, wrapping around his body and forming a silver formation.

With a flash of silver light, Shi Chuankong's figure vanished from the green domain and reappeared a hundred miles behind.

Tie Yu ignored Shi Chuankong, his bloodshot eyes fixed only on Han Li as he struck down with his palm.

The green poisonous mist within the domain rolled and surged toward Han Li from all directions, rapidly condensing into giant poison dragons that lunged at him with claws bared.

Each poison dragon emitted an intense poison law, causing the void to tremble violently as if it would corrode and melt.

Seeing this, Han Li remained calm, quickly forming hand seals.

Dazzling golden light burst from his body, forming a golden wave that surged outward, instantly covering dozens of miles and opening his own domain.

Han Li had now advanced to the Taiyi stage. Within his time domain, golden light waves rolled, much more solid than before, almost materialized.

A rich time law aura rippled within the golden domain, and the surrounding poison mist and poison dragons slowed down drastically, nearly ten times slower.

"Time law domain!" Tie Yu's eyes showed terror. He raised his hands as if to do something.

But his speed was also slowed tenfold, appearing extremely sluggish to Han Li.

Han Li formed hand seals, golden lightning blazed from his body, and golden electric arcs emerged, forming a lightning formation around him.

Although suppressed by the poison domain, the golden electric arcs dimmed, but they still contained law power, allowing the lightning formation to function.

With a flash of lightning, Han Li vanished and reappeared behind Tie Yu. He immediately spat out.

A blinding golden lightning bolt shot from his mouth, striking at Tie Yu's head with incredible speed.

Tie Yu was horrified, unable to turn around. Green light rolled from his body as he frantically activated the poison law within him, surging outward.

The surrounding poison mist rolled violently, gathering behind him and condensing into a green giant over a hundred feet tall with an evil face—the domain spirit.

The domain spirit emitted intense poison law fluctuations, still moving nimbly. It opened its mouth wide and swallowed the golden lightning bolt.

But before Tie Yu could relax, a golden shadow flashed before him. A golden flying sword shot out from the poison mist in front—one of the Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords Han Li had previously deployed.

Although the sword body was stained with green spots, it was still extremely fast, swiftly circling Tie Yu's head.

Tie Yu's expression froze, and then his head tilted and fell off.

Han Li expressionlessly flicked his finger, and a golden sword qi shot out, piercing Tie Yu's head.

With a bang, his head burst like a watermelon, and his soul was utterly annihilated.

A fountain of blood spurted from his neck. Tie Yu's headless corpse fell backward, but Han Li waved his hand, sending a green light to catch it.

With Tie Yu's fall, the green domain rumbled and quickly dissipated.

The domain spirit let out an unwilling roar, then exploded with a bang, turning into rolling green gas that quickly dispersed.

Han Li made a hand seal and summoned a ball of golden light that flew back—the eighteen Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords, along with a green large bow and nine green arrows resting on the golden light.

These flying swords had just been enveloped by the green domain, and their blades were dotted with green spots, but not severely.

Han Li waved his hand, putting all the flying swords, bow, and arrows into the Xuantian Gourd. He then formed hand seals and withdrew his time domain.

After a few breaths, all the golden light and poison gas disappeared, and the sky cleared again.

"Brother Li, your divine abilities are vast, slaying a powerful enemy. Admirable," Shi Chuankong's figure flickered as he appeared beside Han Li, smiling.

Tie Yu's subordinates in the distance looked on in disbelief.

Tie Yu, a late-Taiyi stage cultivator, had been killed by an unknown early-Taiyi human cultivator.

The next moment, someone shouted, and everyone fled in terror into the distance.

Han Li turned to look, a cold glint in his eyes.

Killing Tie Yu and his men had thoroughly offended one of the Ten Calamity Kings. These people must all be eliminated, roots and all.

"Brother Li, you've just fought a fierce battle. Rest a while; I'll handle these people," Shi Chuankong said with a faint smile. His figure flickered, turning into a purple-black light as he chased after them.

Han Li withdrew his gaze, waved his hand, and sent a green light sweeping over Tie Yu's corpse, pulling out a green storage bracelet. He then flicked several red flames that enveloped the corpse, burning fiercely.

In moments, Tie Yu's corpse turned to ashes, scattering in the wind.
