Just like last time, Han Li slipped quietly into the abyss under the protection of the golden lightning, immersing himself in the demonic Qi.
As the rumblings of thunder grew fainter, the golden light of the Devilbane Lightning receded into the darkness until it disappeared without a trace.
Meanwhile, on the sea’s surface, Lord Three Yang and the others were engaged in conversation.
“Brother Wei, do you really think Fellow Daoist Han’s Devilbane Lightning, as he claims, is insufficient for a round trip?” Wei Wuya, with his hands clasped behind his back, asked Lord Three Yang.
“What do you mean by that, Brother Wei?
Are you implying that this humble Daoist has lied?” The Taoist’s face darkened, and he became slightly irritated.
“Hehe!
Lord, please don’t misunderstand, that was not my intention at all.
I just felt that Fellow Daoist Han agreed too readily earlier, so I was a bit curious,” Wei Wuya said with a gentle smile.
“If that’s the case, I really don’t know.
But it’s true that the deeper one goes into the abyss of demonic Qi, the more mana is consumed.
To safely make a round trip, indeed, an astonishing number of Devilbane Lightnings would be needed.
I don’t believe Fellow Daoist Han truly has so many thunders at his disposal.

Perhaps aside from Devilbane Lightning, Fellow Daoist Han has some other Divine Skill that can temporarily withstand the demonic Qi,” said Lord Three Yang, his expression softening as he spoke calmly.
“Now that you mention it, that seems quite possible.
After all, the realm of immortal cultivators is full of extraordinary secret techniques!
Regardless, it’s always good news if he can successfully resolve this crisis,” Wei Wuya said with a laugh.
He then glanced sideways, taking a look at Old Devil Cloud Dew.
The large man in the black robe had his arms crossed, watching the center of the whirlpool with an expressionless face and saying nothing.
For a moment, silence fell among the three of them.
…
Three thousand zhang deep in the abyss, shrouded in a barrier flashing with golden electric light, hung motionless in mid-air.
Inside the barrier, Han Li was intently examining the jade slip in his hand, which contained the location of the Array Plate.
After a while, Han Li withdrew his Divine Sense and glanced around.
It seemed he was already at the bottom of the abyss, cloaked in pitch-blackness that made it impossible to tell the distance.
Han Li’s eyebrows knitted together, and suddenly he opened his mouth and spat out a small golden sword about an inch long.
With a flash of golden light, the small golden sword shot out of the protective barrier, and a thin layer of electric arcs appeared on the blade.
After circling overhead, it turned into an inch-wide golden ring of light, spinning in mid-air with the electric light a€“ a peculiar sight.
Han Li formed an incantation gesture below and pointed upwards towards the ring of light.
The light wheel paused, then shot out as a beam of golden light.
Without hesitation, Han Li moved and followed closely behind the barrier.
After flying horizontally for several hundred zhang, the small golden sword suddenly changed direction, shooting rapidly downwards,
With a “thud,” the flying sword stabbed into something, immersing halfway and ceasing to move.
Seeing this scene, a glimmer of joy crossed Han Li’s face, and he appeared just one zhang above the sword.
Looking around through the faint glow of electric arcs flickering on the sword, one could barely make out the surroundings.
Han Li saw that the sword seemed to be lodged into a flat stone cliff.
After pondering for a moment, Han Li raised both hands and simultaneously placed his palms on the barrier.
The electric net on the barrier suddenly became dazzlingly bright, and several streams of electric arcs shot out from the barrier, transforming into Golden Giant Pythons that coiled and circled nearby.
Within a ten-zhang radius, all the demonic Qi was swept clean by the flying Golden Pythons.
The “stone cliff” below, illuminated by the spiritual light, became clearly visible.
Han Li took a closer look and was stunned.
It wasn’t a “stone cliff” at all, but clearly a platform resembling an altar.
The area under the arc seemed spacious, yet its full extent was not visible.
Han Li felt a surge of astonishment.
That the Array Masters had chosen such a place to bury the Array Plate’s formation eye was quite interesting.
Han Li immediately spurred the golden arcs and flew around the altar swiftly, getting a general impression of the platform.
It was a square platform about the size of an acre, surely constructed by ancient experts, given both its design and the patterns inscribed on the surrounding stone walls.
When Han Li returned to his original location, he beckoned to the sword still embedded in the ground, and the sword turned into a streak of golden light, flying back to him.
After a brief estimation in his mind, Han Li promptly flew toward the center of the platform.
A moment later, several points of white light flickered in the distance.
With a quickened pace, he finally saw the situation at the center of the platform.
A Stele, shattered into several pieces, lay quietly there, with only a tiny bit of its base still standing.
His gaze shifted, and he examined the Stele’s fragments for a moment.
Even though the Stele was destroyed, one could still see some incomplete runes that were incomprehensible to him, and the material from which the Stele was made was unknown a€“ it still glowed with a spiritual presence, intermittently flashing milky white light.
“`
“Could this be something as precious as the Gold Lightning Bamboo?”
Han Li wondered in amazement.
But soon after, he reached into the void above the ground and a fist-sized Stone Stele Fragment came flying out of thin air.
A flash of spiritual light in his hand, and his entire palm, enveloped in green light, grasped the fragment and he looked down at it intently.
It was dull and unremarkable.
If it weren’t for the occasional strands of spiritual light emanating from the fragment, Han Li really couldn’t see what was special about it.
Han Li examined it over and over again, his brows moving slightly.
Suddenly, he exerted strength in his fingers, applying a great force to the object.
A strange scene occurred.
The fragment did not become indestructible as Han Li imagined, nor did it easily turn into a pile of stone powder.
Instead, it turned incredibly soft after a few flashes of white light, and his fingers sank deep into it.
Han Li was startled.
“What is this?
Monarch Great Development, do you know what this is?” Han Li frowned and transmitted his voice to Monarch Great Development.
“No, I have never seen this thing before.
This is not surprising.
There are many strange materials from Ancient Times, and it is impossible for anyone to know everything.
But why don’t you throw a piece over here and see, I happen to have nothing to do, might as well study it,” came Monarch Great Development’s languid voice.
Without giving it much thought, Han Li tossed the fragment behind him towards the bamboo tube.
After a flash of spiritual light from the bamboo tube, a burst of white mist shot out, wrapping the strange stone fragment into the tube.
At the moment when Han Li had obtained the fragment, he could also tell from the breakage that the Stele had not been destroyed for long.
It seemed that the Stele had originally been an important object for suppressing the formation’s eye, which was why it was destroyed at the same time as the Array mishap.
From this point alone, the material of this Stele definitely could not be something ordinary.
Thinking of this, Han Li didn’t hold back.
After a sweep of azure light, the remaining Stone Stele Fragments were all collected into his storage pouch.
Then he flipped his fingers continuously, sending out over a dozen azure Sword Qis, striking hard at the base of the Stele, trying to break these materials and take them away too.
A series of “boom boom” sounds rang out, to Han Li’s great surprise, after a flash of green light, the Sword Qis silently disappeared into the base of the Stele without leaving a trace, having no effect whatsoever.
“Eh!
That’s really quite peculiar.”
Han Li was startled.
After hesitating for a moment, he no longer cared about the remaining materials and instead changed his direction, sending out several more Sword Qis.
Although the remaining Devilbane Lightning was enough to last a considerable amount of time, Han Li didn’t dare to stay in such a dangerous place for too long and prepared to set up the Array Plate.
A series of muffled noises came, and next to the Stele, a pit about a zhang deep appeared there.
Han Li flipped his palm without changing his expression, and after a flash of white light, the exquisitely crafted Array Plate appeared in his hand.
Without hesitation, Han Li flicked his wrist and the Array Plate instantly turned into a ball of white light and flew into the pit.
Both of his hands formed Incantations, and suddenly the Array Plate within the pit began to flicker with spiritual light.
Han Li watched the Array Plate, his expression solemn, without even blinking.
After a moment, the Array Plate emitted a clear ringing sound followed by a milky white beam of light which suddenly shot up from the plate into the sky, disappearing in the high altitude without a trace.
Han Li felt a sense of relief in his heart.
Since everything with the Array Plate was normal, it meant he had found the right place; there should be no problems with burying it there.
With this in mind, Han Li’s expression relaxed, and with a flick of his sleeve, a gust of green wind surged out.
After the gust, all the debris was swept back into the pit.
With an Incantation cast, what was originally a slightly bulging heap of rubble, emitted a faint white glow under Han Li’s deep spell incantation, and then the rubble started to melt and solidify into one under the influence of Mana.
A short while later, the surface of the pit became unexpectedly smooth and flat.
It was as if there had never been a pit at all.
Walking a few circles around where the original pit had been, seeing that everything was normal and nothing unusual, Han Li nodded his head, showing a satisfied expression.
Casually casting a few Incantations outward, they happened to hit the Golden Electric Pythons that were lingering in the vicinity.
A few explosions rang out, and the pythons turned into dots of golden light that disappeared without a trace.
The Demonic Qi that had initially been isolated in the distance, suddenly surged up again, rolling toward him.
Han Li pondered for a moment and was about to rise into the air, shielded by a flash of golden arcs, and fly back to the sea surface.
But at that moment, Monarch Great Development’s voice came through his Divine Sense.
“Young man, hold on!”
“Do you have any advice, senior?” Han Li paused, surprised, and did not immediately leave the platform.
“This place, being the location of the formation’s eye, should be where the Demonic Qi is most concentrated, and this Demonic Qi has been suppressed since the Ancient Times.
It’s possible that a few Demonic Marrow Drills could have formed here, maybe.
According to the records of Ancient Times, this material is unique for crafting a certain Devilish supreme treasure.
Why don’t you search inside this platform and the ground nearby to see if you can really find such a thing?” said Monarch Great Development lightly.
“Demonic Marrow Drill!” A trace of surprise appeared on Han Li’s face.
But after thinking for a while, he did not hesitate and patted his storage pouch with one hand, and a yellowish jade scepter with a wolf head appeared in his hand.
This was an ancient treasure that Silvermoon had once inhabited.
Although the Artifact Spirit was gone, it could still perform a simplified version of the Earth Escape Skill.
Just not as marvelously as Silvermoon once did.
