A Record of a Mortal’s Journey to Immortality (Chapter 2001-Chapter 2248)

On this occasion, countless arcs of black lightning sprang forth from one side of the cloud, while a sword projection that was five times larger than the previous one emerged from the other side.

The two attacks had been unleashed virtually in unison, and instead of being directed toward Han Li, they had been aimed at the entrance to the passageway, thereby instantly sealing it.

If the flying carriage wanted to enter the passageway, then it would have to pierce through the attacks.

As opposed to being alarmed by this, a cold smile appeared on Han Li's face, and he instantly transformed into a giant golden ape that was several tens of feet tall amid a flash of golden light. His arms then thickened drastically as he threw a pair of devastating punches upward with all his might.

In his Giant Mountain Ape form, Han Li's strength had already reached an incredible level, and even a Grand Ascension Stage being wouldn't dare to take the full brunt of his strength head-on.

The space up ahead rippled and warped violently, and a pair of giant golden fist projections that were as large as small mountains crashed down with enormous force.

An earth-shattering boom rang out, and the arcs of lightning and sword projection were instantly shattered by the fist projections.

Thus, the flying carriage was able to instantly fly into the spatial passageway without any further impediment.

After that, five-colored light flashed within the passageway alongside a burst of spatial fluctuations, and the flying carriage was nowhere to be seen.

Only then did a pair of humanoid figures hurriedly fly out of the black cloud.

The two of them quickly flew over to the entrance of the spatial passageway and peered into its depths with panicked expressions.

One of the devils was a handsome purple-robed young man with a horn on his head, while the other was a white-armored, dark-skinned devilish being with fiery red hair.

"What do we do? We let them get away! They're not going to run into each other, are they?" the dark-skinned devilish being asked in a frantic voice.

"Surely there wouldn't be that much of a coincidence; they only said that they'd be returning from the Spirit Realm today, but didn't give an exact time," the other devilish being said with a calm expression that was clearly slightly forced.

"I certainly hope they don't run into one another. In any case, we're definitely going to get punished for this. Who the hell was that? Aren't they afraid of drawing the ire of the Sacred Ancestor by forcing their way into the spatial passageway?" the dark-skinned devilish being said with a resentful expression.

"That man possessed unfathomable powers and was able to easily nullify our attacks, so he's definitely not a normal devilish lord, but he doesn't seem to be a Sacred Ancestor, either," the purple-robed devilish being remarked.

"He's definitely not a Sacred Ancestor. He is indeed very powerful, but he's still far from reaching that level. Besides, if he really were a Sacred Ancestor, he would've simply revealed his identity to be granted passage," the dark-skinned devilish being replied as he shook his head vigorously.

"But if he's not a Sacred Ancestor, then how is it possible that we haven't heard of such a powerful devilish lord before? Perhaps we should ask the others to see if they were able to identify him," the purple-robed devilish being said with furrowed brows.

"Even we were unable to determine his identity; those useless fools most likely weren't even able to see what he looked like, so there's no way they'll be of any help to us," the dark-skinned devilish being said in a disdainful manner as he looked down at the several streaks of light that were approaching them.

"In any case, it can't hurt to ask; perhaps we'll be able to gather some leads," the purple-robed devilish being countered.

Shortly thereafter, the streaks of light arrived on the scene, revealing a group of devilish lords, all of whom immediately extended respectful salutes toward the pair of devils.

The dark-skinned devilish being wasted no time as he instantly swept a hand through the air, conjuring up projections that bore the appearances of Han Li's trio.

"Do any of you know who these people are?" he asked in a cold voice.

The group of devilish lords looked carefully at the projections being presented, then exchanged a few helpless glances before a thin and gaunt man finally stepped forward with a careful expression. "According to our knowledge, it's very likely that those were powerful beings from the Spirit Realm's human race!"

"The human race?" The dark-skinned devilish being faltered slightly upon hearing this, as did the purple-robed devilish man.

"Indeed. The two of you have constantly been in seclusion ever since you were assigned to this place, so it's no surprise that you're unaware of the recent events that have unfolded. Almost our entire holy realm has been made aware of this human cultivator, and there are even rumors of Sacred Ancestors being defeated by him," a devilish woman hurriedly explained.

Expressions of incredulity immediately appeared on the faces of the two devils upon hearing this. "Is that so? Give us more details on this."

"Several years ago..." Thus, the thin and gaunt devilish lord immediately began to recount Han Li's recent exploits, and the two devils listened with rapt focus.

......

Within the spatial passageway, the flying carriage had been enveloped within a series of light barriers, and was quickly racing through the darkness.

Han Li stood at the front of the flying carriage, having already returned to his human form, and his expression had eased significantly.

In several hours, they'd arrive back in the Spirit Realm.

Even though they were going to arrive in the Wood Tribe territory, he was still very excited at the prospect of returning home.

Time slowly passed by, and the flying carriage continued onward without encountering any impediment.

Just as Han Li was estimating that most of the journey had been completed, spatial fluctuations suddenly erupted up ahead, and a massive war ark that was over 1,000 feet in length emerged before hurtling directly toward them.

Han Li was naturally very alarmed by this, and a cautious look immediately appeared on his face.

Generally speaking, one would refrain from initiating a battle in a spatial passageway in fear of triggering violent spatial storms, but if the people on the ark were to completely disregard that and attack him nonetheless, then he would naturally have to retaliate.

Judging from the aura and size of the giant ark, its owner was most likely not just some ordinary devilish lord, so he had to be very careful.

The flying carriage and giant ark were both traveling extremely quickly, and within the span of a single breath, they had reached one another.





Chapter 2147: Returning to the Wood Tribe


On the giant black ark stood countless silver-armored devilish guards, all of whom were at least at the Deity Transformation Stage, and there were even several Body Integration Stage devilish lords among them.

All of the devilish guards were appraising Han Li with bewildered expressions, clearly wondering why Han Li's group had appeared here.

According to the original plan, they were supposed to be the only ones who had access to the spatial passageway for the entire day.

Right as the two flying treasures were about to pass by one another, an elderly voice suddenly rang out from the cabin of the giant ark.

"Hmph, I didn't think that I would encounter a few Spirit Realm rats here! Why don't you return with me to our holy realm?"

As soon as the voice trailed off, a burst of astonishing killing intent surged out of the cabin, immediately following which a white spatial rift appeared right above the flying carriage.

A giant white bone claw that was several tens of feet in size emerged from within the rift before grabbing downward with devastating force.
