?Chapter 1062: Volume 6 Heavenly Skill Spiritual Treasure Chapter 1058 Demon Statue Chapter 1062: Volume 6 Heavenly Skill Spiritual Treasure Chapter 1058 Demon Statue Han Li was sent flying seven or eight zhang away, feeling a burst of intense pain in his lower abdomen.
Amidst shock and rage, he concentrated his mana and finally steadied himself.
But when he looked down at his body, he couldn’t help but take a sharp intake of breath.
The silver light barrier formed by the Primal Astral Shield and the faint protective brilliance had both been pierced through, leaving a fist-sized hole.
His robe was torn at the lower abdomen, revealing glimmers of gold and silver from the armor that was consolidated by the Gold Devouring Bugs, which had also been pierced.
The innermost layer of pitch-black armor was exposed.
This inner armor had a slit several inches long, and a sinister silver blade was stuck in there, seemingly penetrating slightly into his lower abdomen.
A flash of blue crossed Han Li’s face and he let out a low shout.
His entire body burst forth with a pale golden light, as if struck by some immense force, the sinister blade was repelled with a “whoosh” and shot high into the sky.
With a sway of his body and a movement of his arm, Han Li grabbed the blade and got a clear look at it for the first time.
It was half a foot long, somewhat curved, resembling the sharp blade of a crescent moon.
But upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a sharp nail from a wolf’s claw.
Han Li’s heart trembled, and he hurriedly refocused on the wound on his lower abdomen.
He saw a two-to-three-inch deep wound, which was not bleeding but instead revealed flesh that was exceptionally clear and even faintly mixed with slight strands of gold.

This was the result of cultivating the first layer of the King Ming Art; his body was almost as tough as refined iron.
Otherwise, the strike just now would have pierced through his Dantian with all his layers of protection, and he probably would have fallen to the ground, never to rise again.
This so-called “Heavenly Wolf Drill” was indeed terrifying.
Alarm bells rang in Han Li’s mind as he raised his gaze towards the Humanoid Puppet in front of him.
It had been struck by two other huge wolf nails, and five-colored brilliance was flickering unstoppably.
Although they had penetrated halfway into the body, it seemed unharmed.
Seeing this sight, he let out a breath of relief.
It appeared that the puppet body forged from Silverstar Sand with Five Elements Jade was not so easily destroyed.
Holy Ancestor Yuan Sha, within the dark radiance, was greatly shocked that a supposedly surefire attack had failed not just once but thrice.
It must be known that the Heavenly Wolf Drill was one of the silver wolf’s most formidable Divine Skills.
Each use required the sacrifice of one silver claw from the wolf’s paws, and each of these nails had been painstakingly cultivated by the silver wolf over countless years.
Their power was so great that even Deity Transformation stage cultivators would not take them lightly if encountered.
Of course, the current manifestation was a fraction of Holy Ancestor Yuan Sha’s spirit using magic tools to activate, hence naturally reduced in power considerably.
But to have three in a row intercepted by a mid Nascent Soul stage cultivator was indeed staggering to the Divine Ancestor.
At this moment, the dark radiance above the altar receded, and the huge body of the wolf disappeared without a trace, revealing a slender figure – it was the black-robed woman who had retransformed from a giant wolf into a human form.
However, this woman was no longer draped in a black robe but instead enveloped in a fearsome suit of armor.
The armor was shiny and pitch black, engraved with the head of a double-horned demon on the front, while several one-foot long black spines protruded from the shoulders and limbs, glinting with a sinister chill, making one shiver at the sight.
The black-robed woman gave Han Li a cold glance.
“What is this?” Han Li also took a deep breath.
“This is the ancient demon’s True Demon Armor.
As long as one has a demonized body, an ancient demon can condense a large amount of true devilish Qi to form it.
It not only provides extremely strong defense but also allows the wearer to draw upon the Demonic Qi within the armor to greatly enhance their Divine Skills.
During the ancient wars, both our demon race and human cultivators suffered greatly at the hands of this armor.
Fortunately, it seems that only a part of the ancient demons possess this skill; most of them lack this ability.
Otherwise, it would be debatable whether we could have won that battle,” Silvermoon explained seriously to Han Li.
“You remember these things now,” Han Li remarked with some surprise.
Meanwhile, with a thought, the Humanoid Puppet moved, pulling the two silver blades out of its body, then flashed and stowed them away.
Following that, a five-colored halo circulated over the wounds, which began to heal gradually.
Almost simultaneously, the golden bug-constructed armor on his lower abdomen wriggled and likewise returned to normal.
As for the silver light barrier, Han Li simply withdrew it and turned it back into a small silver shield in front of him.
“I’m not too clear about what’s happening myself; it seems that memories from the past are gradually awakening.
Things that were once blurry are now becoming clear, and there are many more things I know nothing about,” Silvermoon replied with a wry smile.
Han Li’s gaze flickered uncertainly, and he fell silent.
The Humanoid Puppet swayed and stood shoulder to shoulder with him.
At this time, the black-robed woman’s gaze moved away from Han Li and looked up at the dark light above the altar, which was being suppressed by three rare and valuable treasures and was on the verge of collapse.
A strange look crossed her face as she swiftly formed hand seals, chanting a crisp and pleasant spell incantation.
Then, with a flick of her slender fingers,
ten unremarkable thin black threads hit the nearby stele embedded with the Dragon Transformation Seal.
Black light flowed through the stele, followed by a loud buzzing sound.
The stone columns surrounding the altar seemed to resonate with more intense shaking,
and the woman in black armor revealed a harsh glint in her eyes.
Her hair spiked up as her features contorted horrifically.
The altar beneath her trembled slightly, and parts of its surface began to crumble under the flashing black light, causing countless streams of pitch-black Demonic Qi to surge skyward.
Seeing this, a crazed gleam appeared in the black-armored woman’s eyes, and she let out a triumphant laugh.
She then pointed upwards and yelled a single word: “Break.”
The sound was sharp and piercing; black qi abruptly surged from the altar into the air, where it condensed and intertwined.
After a bout of turbulence, it shaped itself into a colossal demon statue.
This statue was as large as a pavilion, with abundant curves, donned in armor identical to that of the black-armored woman’s-it was the same style.
However, the head of the statue was that of a delicately featured woman with a pair of small, exquisite horns, her eyes tightly shut.
“Holy Ancestor Yuan Sha!”
Upon seeing the statue, the Corpse Bear, who was protecting Hua Tianqi in the air, had a drastic change in expression and couldn’t help but shout out loud.
Han Li, Xuanqing Zi, and the others were also greatly startled.
And in that instant, the huge statue slowly opened its eyes, revealing a pair of pupils that shimmered like two purple stars in the endless night sky.
At this moment, the black light above the statue’s head finally could not withstand the combined might of the three treasures and completely collapsed, turning into countless black streaks that fell down.
Without any obstruction, the yellow and red light pressed down unabashedly, covering the skies like a massive curtain of yellow and red-a sight incredibly formidable.
Sensing the anomaly above, the statue coldly glanced at the descending yellow and red light only to lazily lift its hand with a simple push.
With a loud “boom,” a black Demon Claw, several acres in size, appeared out of thin air above and reached up as if scooping the moon from the sea.
With a flash of black light, the claw left five huge dark gashes in the yellow and red canopy.
The claw then clenched and, incredibly, the immense seal and the Red Crying Drum materialized between its fingers.
In the next instant, the vast expanse of yellow and red light vanished as if it were all but a fleeting dream.
Everyone who saw this was dumbfounded!
Looking down at the two treasures in its hand, the statue’s eyes flashed with a purple glow.
Then, in a cold female voice bearing a hint of confusion, it spoke, “This…
this place is…
the human world!”
At this moment high in the sky, a silver light had already formed a silver wolf’s head on the back of the closed-eyed Hua Tianqi, as if it were about to leap forth.
But upon seeing the distant form of the statue, the wolf’s head was so startled that it retreated back into the body.
Hua Tianqi then shuddered, eyes flinging open, and suddenly let out a horrified shriek.
“The Interspatial Divine Sense Great Art; this is the true divine consciousness of Holy Ancestor Yuan Sha!”
This cry caused the faces of all cultivators present to change dramatically.
Xuanqing Zi and Qi Miao turned completely pale, for the statue had conjured the Demon Claw with such speed that, with a clench of its five fingers, the earthen yellow seal and the Red Crying Drum ruptured instantly.
The two replicas of the spiritual treasures were thus crushed to dust.
Then the statue, without even glancing at the people in the air, stretched out its arms and slowly turned its head to look down at the black-armored woman.
The woman, expressionless, returned the gaze, and after a brief eye contact, the statue spoke, “Not bad, you are still alive.
It was worth the tremendous effort I made in sending you to the human world back then.
Did you call me here to deal with these ants?
Don’t you think it’s too wasteful?
You should know that you have summoned me twice already.
After this summoning, the soul imprint I planted in your divine consciousness will completely disappear.
The true devilish Qi consumed to summon me could have been used to directly refine a group of our Divine Ancestors.”
“You are me, and I am you.
If there were any other way, I would not have made such a desperate move.
Without the true devilish Qi leaking from beneath this altar, with my current state, I would not have been able to summon you,” replied the woman with raised eyebrows and a cold tone.
“I see!
No wonder forming a physical presence here felt so strenuous; it’s not because I was summoned across realms with your own Demonic Qi.
It seems I must act swiftly.
I do not know how long these demonic energies will support my physical form,” the giant statue nodded, glanced at the ceaseless stream of pitch black Demonic Qi flowing into its feet from the altar, and spoke indifferently.
Then, it raised its head to look at everyone.
A chill ran through all demons and humans alike as the statue’s cold and merciless purple eyes swept over them, each on high alert, with some even moving quietly backwards without a sound.
However, the statue seemed to crack a faint smile, then raised its hand, extending one massive demonic finger and lightly flicked in a certain direction.
With a piercing screech, something flashed and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The Lion Bird, which was trembling incessantly while fighting with the huge eagle-shaped demon, suddenly let out a shrill cry as its body rapidly swelled, and with a “boom,” the ferocious beast exploded into bits for no apparent reason.
