Chapter 163 One Man Fights Four Guardians Alone
"Smug? Ha! I'll take your life today!"
"I hate it most when people are better at showing off than me!"
A murderous intent surged in Han Yi's eyes. He gathered energy in his index finger, and a blazing crimson flame instantly ignited at his fingertip. The heat was as intense as the descent of the sun, scorching and oppressive. As spiritual energy was continuously poured in, the temperature of the flame rose steadily. In an instant, the entire dense forest was engulfed by the raging fire. The flames roared and raged, turning vegetation to ashes in their wake. Rolling waves of heat surged and spread outwards like a tidal wave.
"The fire is too fierce, run!"
A terrified scream pierced the sky, and the group of Nascent Soul experts who were fighting fiercely outside the dense forest were instantly terrified and scattered like birds and beasts.
A few who reacted a little slower were instantly engulfed by the intense heat, turning into ashes in an instant and disappearing into the scorching heat without leaving a trace.
"Madman! You madman, stop right now! Your actions will endanger countless innocent lives!" The mysterious man's expression changed drastically, filled with shock and anger. As one of the four guardians of Qingmu City, he had diligently protected the city for four hundred years. How could he allow others to act recklessly and endanger the safety of the city's people?
"Stop with your hypocritical lecturing. My target is you, so I'll be careful and won't involve anyone else."
Han Yi glared at him impatiently and shouted to Shan Ling and Green Ivy, "Quickly form a formation and trap the fire!"
In an instant, a bright light flashed, the formation was activated, and the raging heat was firmly locked in the dense forest.
……
Tuoba Xun'er and the others had already retreated to a safe place. She looked towards the dense forest with a worried expression, anxiously asking, "I wonder how the young master is doing now?"
Lu Xuefeng, who was standing beside him, gripped his spear tightly and quickly reassured him, "Don't worry, young master is incredibly capable and will surely handle this with ease!"
Tuoba Xun'er nodded silently, but said nothing more, turning her gaze to Su Yao not far away.
Su Yao, with her profound cultivation, also looked solemn. She knew that this battle was extremely dangerous, and even she could hardly intervene, let alone others.
She thought to herself that she had only just witnessed Han Yi's strength. She thought she knew him well, but she never expected him to be so unassuming. If he had used such methods when they met again, she probably wouldn't have been able to withstand even one move.
……
Han Yi's eyes sharpened, and he shouted, "Go!" A blazing ball of light shot out like an arrow, instantly rushing towards the mysterious man.
Upon seeing this, the mysterious man's face darkened so much it seemed like water could drip from it, and he inwardly cried out in alarm.
The temperature emitted by this ball of light was beyond imagination. Even when it was still more than ten feet away from Han Yi, he already felt that he could hardly resist it. If this ball of light got close to him, he would surely die.
"Help me quickly!"
He roared at the top of his lungs, and in an instant, three more figures appeared. The four of them worked together and barely managed to block the deadly ball of light.
"Everyone's here? Excellent, just what I wanted!"
Han Yi showed no fear, a cold smile playing on his lips as he looked at the four figures before him with great interest.
At this moment, Lin Yue also gracefully arrived beside him.
"Each of those four is just as strong as me. Can I really take on four of them?"
"What you're saying... is way too much of an overestimation of yourself. Any one of them could easily take you down. You'd better get away from here and stop causing trouble!"
Han Yi glanced at her.
Lin Yue's face turned red with anger, her chest heaving violently, and she turned to leave.
"Also... don't keep asking men if they can do it, just try and you'll know..."
Han Yi teased. Lin Yue was both angry and helpless. She glared at him fiercely and said, "You don't know what's good for you. If you get beaten to death later, I won't be collecting your corpse!"
"Youth is great, young people are fearless, even in this situation they can still flirt."
A middle-aged man dressed in black casual clothes slowly stepped out from among the four people opposite him. He exuded an aura of authority that commanded respect.
Han Yi was too lazy to waste words with him. He quickly formed hand seals, and the true fire within his body surged out instantly, transforming into a huge phantom of a Vermilion Bird. It flapped its wings and cried out, swooping down on the man with immense force.
This sudden and fierce attack caught the man off guard, forcing him to retreat repeatedly in a disheveled state.
Seeing their companion suffer a loss, the other three glared angrily, roared in unison, and joined forces to unleash a powerful spell.
A giant golden bell descended from the sky, its imposing presence and radiant light dazzling the heavens.
Its appearance is heavy and solid, and its color is dark as ink, as if it were forged from countless heavy irons through thousands of hammerings.
The bell is covered with mysterious and unpredictable prison patterns, which shimmer with an eerie light, as if telling the story of ancient and mysterious power of punishment and laws of confinement.
A chilling aura emanated from within the bell, as if a small prison were hidden inside, exuding a terrifying atmosphere.
"Oh no! It's the Prison-Suppressing Golden Bell! Kid, get out of the way... Don't try to take it head-on!"
The fan spirit, who was maintaining the formation in the distance, was extremely anxious and hurriedly sent a telepathic message to Han Yi.
He seemed not to hear, standing firmly in place, looking up at the huge golden bell that was slowly falling, his gaze firm and without fear.
"Hmph! Old man, are you really the most powerful and unparalleled weapon of mass destruction? Why are you always so cowardly?"
As he spoke, his nascent soul suddenly detached from his body, transforming into a giant tens of feet tall, and its body continued to expand and grow larger.
The giant was surrounded by flames, like a fire god descending to earth, majestic and awe-inspiring.
He strode forward, suddenly hoisted the incredibly heavy golden bell onto his shoulder, raised his hands high as if to support it, and forcefully withstood the immense downward force of the bell.
At this moment, the flames on the giant's body clashed violently with the eerie aura emanating from the Prison-Suppressing Golden Bell, producing crackling and exploding sounds and scattering sparks everywhere.
The power of punishment emanating from the prison patterns on the bell was instantly scorched and dissipated upon touching the flames. Meanwhile, the binding forces that attempted to invade the giant's body were all blocked by the powerful spiritual energy of the giant, formed from Han Yi's nascent soul, and failed to succeed.
At this moment, the various old monsters who had already escaped the dense forest area hid all around, watching this thrilling battle intently.
"Alas! I've always considered myself the strongest in Qingmu City, but today I realize how ignorant and overconfident I was! Compared to these powerful figures, my cultivation at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm is as insignificant as an ant!"
The Liu family patriarch sighed self-deprecatingly, his face full of bitterness.
He wasn't the only one with this sentiment; the other five Nascent Soul elders were also filled with astonishment and regret. The four guardians of Qingmu City had been hiding for four hundred years without their knowledge, and their appearance today had stirred up such a storm, which was truly unexpected.
In the heart of the dense forest, Han Yi's nascent soul, transformed into a colossal figure, relied on its immense power to desperately withstand the relentlessly descending golden bell. Meanwhile, the four guardians of Qingmu City poured their magic into amplifying the bell's power, attempting to completely suppress Han Yi. The two sides were locked in a stalemate, their spiritual energy fluctuating violently, causing the surrounding space to subtly distort and deform due to the powerful collision of forces.
Looking at the peculiar divine power that Han Yi had displayed, the old man with the fan spirit was filled with doubt. He muttered to himself, "Could this be the Great Divine Power of the Law of Heaven and Earth? It is so different from what I have seen before. In the past, the Law of Heaven and Earth always involved the physical body transforming into a towering giant. But this is the transformation of a Nascent Soul. What is going on?"
"Brother, this boy's strength is too terrifying. I'm afraid we'll have to use the power of all living beings in the city to suppress him!" one of the four said to the leader.
