A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Immortal Realm

This was an extremely fast and vicious attack, and it was clear that Feng Wuchen was striking to kill.

Han Li's pupils contracted slightly as he thrust his palm downward, lowering the shield to oppose the willow leaf sword piercing at him from down below.

Right as the two were about to clash, a string of star designs abruptly lit up over the willow leaf sword, and it was as if the blade of the sword had suddenly become twice as wide as before, granting it immense power as he struck the underside of the shield.

A loud crack rang out, and the crack on the shield instantly began to widen.

Han Li's brows furrowed slightly upon seeing this, and he decided to abandon the Star Shield as he sprang up into the air.

Immediately thereafter, the Star Shield abruptly exploded as a streak of swordlight erupted into the air, only just barely glancing past the tip of Han Li's nose.

"You're not getting away this time!" Feng Wuchen declared with a triumphant smile as he launched himself up into the air like a speeding arrow, catching up to Han Li in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, all of his profound acupoints and his sword's star acupoints lit up in unison, basking his entire body in a layer of starlight. All of the starpower around his body converged toward his sword as he slashed it through the air, unleashing a blindingly bright streak of swordlight.

The two of them were very close to each other, and the streak of swordlight was extremely fast. Suspended in mid-air with nowhere to hide, it seemed like Han Li had been reduced to a sitting duck.

An anxious look immediately appeared on Chen Yang's face upon seeing this, while Qin Yuan and the others were looking on with calm and relaxed expressions.

Gu Qianxun also shook her head in dismay as she heaved a forlorn sigh.

As for Yi Liya, he was feeling quite conflicted. After realizing that Han Li was clearly more powerful than him, he had begun rooting for him, hoping that he would be able to defeat Feng Wuchen, but it seemed like his hopes were about to be dashed.

Even Daoist Xie's brows had become tightly furrowed with concern.

Right at this moment, all of the profound acupoints on Han Li's legs lit up as he channeled his Wingform Ascension Arts with all his might, and tremendous starlight erupted out of the eighteen profound acupoints.

Two dull thumps rang out in unison as Han Li was somehow able to use the empty air beneath himself as purchase, forcibly darting away to the side to change directions, thereby allowing him to evade what had appeared to be an unavoidable strike.

"Impossible!" Feng Wuchen exclaimed, while a wave of thunderous cheers rang out from the spectator stands.

On the elevated platform, Chen Yang heaved a sigh of relief, and it was Qin Yuan's turn to feel a little anxious.

Meanwhile, Mistress Liu Hua was nodding to himself with a pleased expression, clearly impressed with Han Li's stunning display.

At this point, there was barely anyone watching the battle taking place between Zhu Ziyuan and Jin Gong anymore.

After evading Feng Wuchen's sword strike, Han Li didn't retreat or attempt to get away. Instead, he twisted around, stomping down onto the air below once again to launch himself directly at Feng Wuchen.

"It's your turn now!" he yelled as more and more profound acupoints lit up over his body, and the total number was quickly approaching 180.

Not only were the spectators in the stands astonished to see this, even those on the elevated platform couldn't help but be stunned by what they were seeing.

Never had any of them imagined that Han Li could be so powerful.

A hint of surprise had even broken through E Kuai's perpetually expressionless facade, and he took a glance at Chen Yang, seemingly trying to gauge his reaction.

Upon detecting E Kuai's gaze, Chen Yang turned to give him a faint smile.

In reality, he was just as shocked as everyone else, but he was putting on a composed facade to make it appear as if he were already aware of the extent of Han Li's power.

On the battle platform, a hint of fear and alarm flashed through Feng Wuchen's eyes at the sight of the dense clusters of profound acupoints on Han Li's body, but at this point, he had no choice but to face Han Li head-on.

He was going to make one final roll of the dice, and he was willing to even make some sacrifices to secure this victory.

With that in mind, Feng Wuchen let loose a thunderous roar as he summoned his other willow leaf sword back to himself, then brought the pair of swords together, upon which a total of over forty star acupoints lit up over the surface of the combined sword.

At the same time, all of his 168 profound acupoints also began to glow radiantly, injecting all of their power into his sword in a frenzy to produce a giant sword of starlight that was aimed directly at Han Li.

In contrast, Han Li was taking a much more calm and composed approach.

He channeled his Heavenly Baleful Purgatory Arts as he adopted a very strange pose in mid-air, tipping himself upside down as he extended his right palm downward.

His movements were quite languid and unhurried, but with every single inch that his right palm descended, the surrounding space would bend and warp further and further. There were large areas of space that were already beginning to fold in on themselves, and his right arm was fully extended right before Feng Wuchen's willow leaf sword was about to reach him.

All of a sudden, Qin Yuan sprang to his feet with an alarmed expression as he yelled, "Wuchen, get back!"

However, it was already too late, and Han Li's right palm struck the tip of Feng Wuchen's sword.

A string of loud cracks rang out as the giant sword of starlight was completely shattered, exploding into countless specks of radiant white starlight.

The two willow leaf swords in Feng Wuchen's hands also shattered into pieces, following which Han Li's palm struck him on the shoulder.

Feng Wuchen's robes instantly exploded to reveal a suit of antiquated white bone armor, which was releasing a barrier of gentle starlight to try and oppose Han Li's attack.

However, the light barrier was also shattered in an instant along with the suit of bone armor, and Feng Wuchen's right shoulder and right arm were completely pulverized, sending blood, bone shards, and muscle fragments erupting in all directions.

Immediately thereafter, Feng Wuchen crashed heavily down onto the ground, and even in his unconscious state, blood was gushing out of his mouth.

The entire platform also shuddered violently, and even though it was just barely able to hold itself together thanks to the star bone fortifications, the entire platform had sunk down by about three feet, and countless cracks had appeared on its surface.

Han Li still recalled the request that Gu Qianxun had made to him, and he clenched his right hand into a fist as he continued to descend toward Feng Wuchen.

"Don't you dare!"

A furious roar rang out as a figure plummeted out of the sky, and with the impact of his landing, the platform was finally shattered into countless pieces.

Han Li cast his gaze forward to discover Qin Yuan glowering at him with intense fury and killing intent in his eyes, and immediately thereafter, all of the other city lords descended onto the destroyed battle platform as well.

Chen Yang had descended right next to Han Li, who cupped his fist in a salute toward E Kuai as he said, "City Lord E, my opponent hasn't surrendered yet, so the battle is still not over. Why has City Lord Qin suddenly stepped onto the platform?"

"You've already won this battle, Fellow Daoist Li, so why not spare his life? What do you say?" E Kuai asked with a warm smile.

"Of course, City Lord E," Han Li replied as he took a step back so that he was half a step behind Chen Yang.

Qin Yuan cradled Feng Wuchen's unconscious body in his arms, then pulled out a small black vial and tipped out several red pills that he fed to Feng Wuchen.

Immediately thereafter, he declared, "Please pardon me, City Lord E, I must take my leave now."

"Go ahead," E Kuai replied with a nod, and Qin Yuan promptly departed with Feng Wuchen still in his arms.

All of the spectators were caught off guard by this sudden turn of events, but it didn't take long before a chorus of boos began to ring out as everyone expressed their displeasure at Qin Yuan's intervention.

E Kuai paid no heed to the reaction of the spectators as he turned to Chen Yang and Han Li and said, "Fellow Daoist Qin is at fault here, but I can understand his actions. I'll get him to compensate your Green Goat City for this."

"Thank you, City Lord E," Chen Yang hurriedly replied as he cupped his fist in a salute, and Han Li also followed suit.

"Alright, the martial gathering still has to continue, so let's not delay things any longer," E Kuai said as he flew back onto the elevated platform.

Sun Tu and Fu Jian exchanged a peculiar glance with each other, then returned to the elevated platform as well.

"That was a splendid performance, Fellow Daoist Li. My status as city lord will surely be significantly bolstered in the wake of your battle. Rest assured, I'll reward you handsomely for your efforts," Chen Yang said through voice transmission.

"It's fine. He provoked me first, and that's why I decided to teach him a lesson. I hope I haven't caused any trouble for you," Han Li replied with a smile.

……

Before long, all of the spectators began loudly chanting Li Feiyu's name.

Zhu Ziyuan and Jin Gong weren't able to see what was happening on the other platform due to there being multiple platforms in the way, but they had been listening carefully this entire time while fighting their sparring match of a battle.

Now that the other battle had concluded, Zhu Ziyuan didn't waste any more time, knocking Jin Gong down from the platform with a single punch, and this entire time, his spear had just been for show.

With that, the two wildly contrasting battles had both drawn to a conclusion, and the next batch of two battles was set to begin shortly thereafter.

The platform used by Zhu Ziyuan and Jin Gong was still largely unscathed, but the other platform had been completely destroyed, so the battle between Gu Qianxun and Fang Chan had to be moved to another platform.
