However, even after the devilish ape had rushed over 100 feet toward Han Li, he still remained completely motionless and displayed no reaction. All of a sudden, golden light flashed from the ground below, and two swords surfaced from the ground alongside a saber.
The three weapons slashed through the air, sending two sword projections and a saber projection flying directly toward the giant ape.
Even before the three projections had struck their target, a bone-chilling aura emanated from them, indicating that they were extremely sharp and destructive.
The devilish ape was extremely confident in the suit of armor that it was wearing, but it naturally wouldn't allow itself to be struck by these attacks for no reason. As such, it immediately paused before three purple streaks erupted from within the devilish winds, destroying the three projections with ease.
However, the gust of devilish winds decelerated slightly as a result, and at this moment, a cold smile suddenly appeared on Han Li's face.
In the next instant, the devilish ape suddenly felt its surroundings blur, following which countless azure lotus flowers appeared from the four walls of the passageway, each of which was around a foot in size. Immediately thereafter, the lotus flowers combined to form an azure light barrier than enshrouded Han Li within.
The holy-grade devilish ape had rushed headfirst into Han Li's Spring Dawn Sword Projection, and Han Li certainly wasn't going to squander such a brilliant opportunity to trap it.
At this moment, the golden saber and swords that had emerged from the ground suddenly disappeared, and at the same time, a faint golden light flashed from Han Li's shadow, following which a pair of golden-armored warriors appeared.
One of them was wielding a pair of long and thin swords, while the other was holding a single saber.
These were none other than the two puppets formed by the Armor Origin Talismans!
The devilish ape was quite surprised to have found itself in this sword formation, but it wasn't overly panicked. Instead, it merely murmured to itself, "A sword formation, eh? That's rather annoying."
At this moment, a cold light flashed through Han Li's eyes, and he activated the might of the sword formation to its maximal extent.
The devilish ape was greeted by the sight of azure light flashing all around it, following which giant azure logs appeared out of thin air up above, then crashed down in a torrential downpour.
The giant ape harrumphed coldly upon seeing this, and crimson light flashed from its visor before it disappeared to reveal a set of sinister facial features. Within its huge eyes, there was a pair of shimmering balls of purple light, and if one were to look closely, they'd discover that there were five-colored runes flashing incessantly within the purple light.
After removing its visor to reveal its eyes, the devilish ape looked up at the descending azure logs with a derisive sneer on its face.
It reached up and made a grabbing motion toward one of the plummeting azure logs, paying no heed to the other descending logs around it.
An incredible scene then ensued amid a resounding boom!
A shimmering and translucent massive hand appeared in the air above, swatting aside the other logs before grabbing onto a completely mundane-looking azure log.
Purple light then flashed from the five fingers of the giant hand, upon which the azure log transformed into an extremely sharp flying sword that was around a foot in size.
In the instant that the illusionary technique around the flying sword was destroyed, all of the giant azure logs raining down from above vanished amid flashes of spiritual light.
As for the azure flying sword, it was whizzing around incessantly within the massive translucent hand, trying to break free with all its might.
A sinister look appeared on the devilish ape's face, and it slashed its giant purple sword directly toward the azure flying sword.
The ape had identified that this flying sword had to be Han Li's bonded treasure, so if he could destroy it, then he'd be inflicting severe harm on Han Li by extension.
Han Li was rather surprised that the illusionary technique within his sword formation was broken so easily, but his expression immediately darkened at the sight of what the giant ape was doing, and he certainly wasn't going to allow it to have its way.
If this were an Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Sword that hadn't been refined the second time, then it would indeed be in an extremely dire situation if it were to be captured by a far more powerful foe.
However, having attained the voidform ability, it was a simple task to convert the flying sword into an insubstantial form.
Thus, Han Li merely pointed a finger at the flying sword within the sword formation, and it instantly vanished amid a flash of azure light.
In the next instant, specks of azure spiritual light appeared over 100 feet away before converging to form the azure flying sword again.
The sword then disappeared from within the sword formation in a flash.
The devilish ape was slightly taken aback by this development, but a vicious look then flashed through its eyes as it abruptly made a hand seal. As it did so, the purple light radiating from its eyes became extremely dazzling and bright, and the five-colored runes deep within its pupils scanned through the area relentlessly.
In the end, its gaze settled on Han Li, who was standing outside the sword formation, and Han Li's heart immediately sank as he confirmed his earlier suspicions; this holy-grade devilish ape possessed a spirit eye ability that was similar to Brightsight Spirit Eyes.
As such, it was able to immediately see through the sword formation's illusionary technique, then identify his location with ease.
Chapter 1635: Trapping the Devil with the Sword Formation
Just as these thoughts were racing through Han Li's mind, the devilish ape let loose a low snarl as it opened its mouths. A ball of black and red essential Qi was expelled from within before enveloping the giant purple sword before it.
Brilliant purple light immediately began to radiate from the sword, and the unknown creature within it suddenly swelled in size. It then emerged from the surface of the giant sword, thrashing about in a menacing display.
The giant sword then twisted around so that its blade aimed directly at Han Li, following which it came crashing down with devastating force.
A purple sword projection that was over 100 feet in length surged forth, slicing through the azure light barrier in a soundless manner.
The sword projection should've hurtled through the air at an alarming speed, yet it was extremely slow and sluggish for some reason.
Han Li's expression changed drastically upon seeing this, and his four golden arms made hand seals in unison before pointing toward the sword formation.
Four pillars of dense golden light shot forth toward the purple sword projection, and a string of resounding booms rang out in quick succession.
The pillars of golden light exploded with astonishing force, but they only stalled the purple light slightly before they were vanquished with ease.
Thus, the purple sword projection continued to fly toward Han Li.
Han Li's eyelids twitched upon seeing this, and the two shadow puppets behind him immediately slashed their weapons through the air at his behest.
Golden sword projections and saber projections surged forth like a torrential downpour, and at the same time, Han Li abruptly injected a burst of magic power into his sword formation.
Large azure runes instantly appeared on the azure light barrier up ahead, and these runes swirled before forming a series of azure lotus flowers in front of the light barrier.
There seemed to be no end to the sword and saber projections unleashed by the two golden shadow puppets, but all of them were destroyed by the purple sword projection with ease, unable to pose any obstacle to it.
