The giant lizard and the Thousand-Eyed Giant were still caught in a tense confrontation down below.
Everyone else had also disappeared as far as the naked eye was concerned.
Han Li exhaled as he used his spiritual sense to detect the locations indicated by the tracking marks he'd left on his four companions.
Everyone else returned as a result and hovered in mid-air in the nearby area.
There were two in the air above the giant lizard while the other two were situated behind the Thousand-Eyed Giant.
They were also all using some special concealment techniques, and there would've been no way for Han Li to ascertain their locations with his spiritual sense if it weren't for the tracking marks that had been planted. As for the two silver wyrm puppets that Long Dong had been referring to earlier, Han Li was completely unable to sense them.
He didn't know whether this was due to the effect of the Limpidity Talismans or if they hadn't actually been released yet.
Countless thoughts were whizzing through Han Li's mind, but his gaze remained fixed directly down below.
Everything in the surrounding area was abnormally quiet, akin to the calm before the storm. This peculiar and rather strained atmosphere persisted for a long while, yet nothing changed at all.
Han Li remained completely expressionless, but he was starting to get a little impatient. It seemed that the time they had agreed on was about to arrive soon as well.
Right at this moment, the giant lizard seemed to have felt a sense of discomfort with one of its giant paws, causing it to raise it reflexively before immediately bringing it down again.
However, right in the instant when it brought its paw down, silver light suddenly flashed from the soil beneath the paw, following which a silver thread shot forth, hurtling directly toward the Thousand-Eyed Giant.
This created the illusion that the lizard was using its paw to launch a sneak attack.
The giant faltered upon seeing this before letting loose a thunderous roar of rage. Gale-force winds were swept up around its body as it swept a palm through the air, violently vanquishing the oncoming silver thread.
However, almost at the exact same moment, a blurry and indistinct object flashed through the air beneath the giant's hand. Immediately thereafter, a pillar of silver light that was as thick as a bowl shot forth out of thin air, traveling at an incredible speed and reaching the lizard's massive head in an instant.
The lizard's green eyes flashed as a crimson pillar of light erupted from its twin horns.
Following a resounding boom, the two pillars of light clashed, and both disappeared into nothingness.
The lizard then immediately threw back its head and let loose an earth-shattering roar. It tensed its four limbs and its massive body immediately rose up as it opened its cavernous mouth to reveal rows of intimidating fangs.
Chapter 1366: Stealing the Fruits
A hint of violent ferocity flashed through the giant's eyes as it immediately tightened its grip around the black club resting on its shoulder. At the same time, brilliant light erupted from the eyeballs all over its body, and all of them began to blink in unison.
The presence of so many blinking eyes on a single body created quite a harrowing sight to behold.
However, Han Li was ecstatic to see this, and he waited with bated breath for the situation to unfold further.
If these two Spatial Tempering Stage beings really did engage in battle with one another, then their objective would be much easier to achieve.
The lizard opened its mouth to blast forth a crimson shadow, following which a ball of silver light exploded within the soil beneath one of its huge paws.
The crimson shadow shot forth and punctured the silver object that had just emerged from the soil, and the latter fell heavily to the ground.
Han Li's heart stirred upon seeing this, and he focused his gaze to discover that the silver object was none other than a silver wyrm puppet.
The puppet's core had been punctured by the giant lizard's fearsome tongue, reducing it to a pile of scrap metal.
It appeared that the puppet's cover was still blown right in the instant that it was about to spring into action, and it had been destroyed by the giant lizard as a result.
The Thousand-Eyed Giant wasn't very intelligent, but it also realized that something was amiss upon seeing this. Immediately thereafter, all of its eyeballs turned toward a certain direction, following which countless threads shot forth from within.
Another resounding boom erupted as the other silver wyrm puppet, which was hiding beneath the giant's body, was punctured by seven or eight black threads at once.
The black threads then separated in different directions to shred the puppet's body as if it were made from soft butter.
Han Li drew a sharp breath upon seeing this.
It appeared that the task he was undertaking was far more dangerous than he had anticipated. However, the Zoysia Dragon Fruit was vital for him to refine Spatial Tempering Stage pills in the future, so he had to take the risk no matter dangerous the situation was.
After all, as long as he could secure the seeds of these fruits, he'd be able to nurture an indefinite number of them.
With that in mind, Han Li's heart settled once again.
The giant let loose a few menacing harrumphs in a show of intimidation before resting its club on its shoulder again.
The giant lizard took a completely expressionless glance at the giant before lying back down onto the ground.
The two colossal creatures returned to their former impasse.
Meanwhile, Han Li stared intently at the two of them, not daring to allow his concentration to slip, even in the slightest.
Seeing as the puppets had failed, they would have to resort to their backup plan, which consisted of Long Dong and the others luring the lizard and the giant away, thereby creating an opportunity for Han Li.
Sure enough, after just the span of a few breaths, the pleasant sound of a lute being stroked rang out above the giant lizard's head. Yellow halos of light then surfaced in the air above, surging directly toward the top of the giant lizard's head. At the same time, white light flashed as two short golden halberds appeared. The halberds swayed before crashing down violently like a pair of powerful golden wyrms.
Almost at the exact same moment, two humanoid figures appeared in the air above at an altitude of several hundred feet. They were none other than Ye Ying and Long Dong.
Ye Ying was gently stroking her spirit treasure replica lute while Long Dong was manipulating two treasures at once with a serious expression on his face.
Despite the lizard's massive size, its movements were extremely agile. As soon as the attacks came crashing down toward it from the air above, it let loose a low roar before immediately rising to its paws. Red light flashed from the crimson horns on its head, following with a vast expanse of red light emanated forth, keeping both the yellow halos and twin halberds at bay.
Immediately thereafter, green light flashed from the massive lizard's limbs. Countless strands of its bristly fur transformed into green streaks of light that hurtled into the air. At the same time, its huge tail swished through the air and it abruptly disappeared, leaving behind only a trail of afterimages in its wake.
In the next instant, the massive lizard's tail, which was over 200 feet long, appeared beside Ye Ying and Long Dong in a flash before sweeping violently toward them. Even though the tail hadn't yet made contact with them, the fierce winds it had swept up were still threatening to blow them away.
As expected of a mutated ancient beast, as soon as the lizard was attacked, it retaliated in an extremely ferocious manner.
Ye Ying and Long Dong were aware that this giant lizard definitely wouldn't be easy to face in battle, but they were still given a massive fright by its fearsome combat prowess.
