色l情午夜片久久

Chapter 1021: Report

A layer of radiant, azure light appeared around Dongfang Bai\'s trio, warding off the majority of the time law powers in Han Li\'s golden spirit domain as Dongfang Bai sped away into the distance.

"None of you are getting away today!" Han Li roared as he channeled his Reversal True Axis ability, appearing above the trio in the blink of an eye.

A look of resolve appeared in Dongfang Bai\'s eyes upon seeing this, and he thrust his palms into Tao Ji and Lü Yun\'s backs, sending one of them flying toward Han Li, while the other was launched at Weeping Soul down below.

Only then did Tao Ji and Lü Yun discover, much to their shock and horror, that they were completely immobilized, and they couldn\'t even open their mouths to speak.

Han Li thrust a palm at the oncoming Tao Ji, but right at this moment, the latter\'s lower abdomen suddenly began to swell rapidly. Immediately thereafter, a tiny seedling emerged from his belly button.

Before Han Li was able to reach him, his stomach swelled up like a balloon, following which his entire body exploded violently.

His nascent soul had been detonated within his dantian, generating such tremendous power that even Han Li was sent flying back by the explosion, while his outstretched hand had also been severely mutilated.

However, he had no time to attend to his own injuries as Lü Yun was currently hurtling toward Weeping Soul.

He simultaneously channeled his Reversal True Axis ability and his Lightning Bird bloodline before plunging into the lake to swoop up Weeping Soul, and a resounding explosion rang out behind him before he had a chance to get away.

The explosion was so powerful that all of the water abodes on the lakebed were destroyed, and enormous waves that were over ten thousand feet tall erupted out of the lake before crashing toward the neighboring Comb Grate Mountain.

A few moments later, Han Li and Weeping Soul shot out of the lake before hovering in the sky above.

"That Dongfang Bai is truly a terrible man, Master! He sacrificed his own companions just so he could get away!" Weeping Soul spat through gritted teeth.

"The fact that a man like him is serving as the palace master of such an important immortal region is a clear indication that the Heavenly Court is already rotten to the core. No matter, he can run for now, but he can\'t run forever. His past crimes will eventually catch up to him," Han Li said.

"What should we do now, Master?" Weeping Soul asked.

"You take some time to rest, I\'ll devise a plan for what we do from here onward," Han Li replied, then conjured up an entrance to the Flower Branch domain for Weeping Soul.

Once she had entered the Flower Branch domain, Han Li flew away as a streak of light, instantly vanishing into the distance.

......

There was a cluster of palaces situated somewhere in the western region of the Golden Origin Mountain Range. The palaces stretched as far as the eyes could see, and some were situated in cols, some were built on mountains, and some were even hovering in mid-air.

The palaces were connected by bridges of rainbow light, giving the entire place the appearance of an immortal paradise, and this was none other than the Golden Origin Immortal Palace.

Right at this moment, a streak of green light appeared in the distant sky, flying through the air at an astonishing speed before fading to reveal Dongfang Bai.

The look on his face was as dark as the clouds on a stormy day, and the Immortal Palace personnel that he passed by all bowed in silence, not daring to say anything for fear of incurring his very apparent wrath.

Before long, Dongfang Bai arrived deep in the Immortal Palace. He entered a palace with a golden communication array inside, and he flipped a hand over to produce a purple badge before placing it onto the communication array.

The badge began to glow with radiant purple light, illuminating the surrounding golden array a purple color as well.

Moments later, a projection of a green-haired woman appeared in the array.

The woman was very youthful in appearance, seemingly only around sixteen to seventeen years of age, and her complexion was a little pale, but there was a look of unmatched regal authority in her eyes.

"Dongfang Bai, why have you used your Nine Origin Badge to contact me? If those people from the Immortal Prison find out about this, it\'ll spell trouble for both of us," the green-haired woman said.

"Please forgive me, Immortal Lord Miao Fa. I just received a piece of information pertaining to Creation Crystals, and I wanted to report it to you right away," Dongfang Bai replied in a respectful manner.

"What? You\'ve found leads on Creation Crystals? Elaborate!" Immortal Lord Miao Fa urged as a burst of tremendous pressure was exerted upon Dongfang Bai through the array, causing his robes to flap audibly around him.

Dongfang Bai didn\'t dare to waste any time, and he hurriedly informed Immortal Lord Miao Fa of the situation regarding Han Li and the Heaven Controlling Vial, making sure to embellish the story as he told it.

For his version of the story, he proclaimed that Tao Ji and Tao Yu had discovered Han Li first, only to withhold the information from him. From there, he became suspicious of Tao Ji and decided to look into the matter, thereby leading to his discovery of Han Li and the Heaven Controlling Vial. In any case, both Tao Ji and Tao Yu were already dead, so there was no one to disprove his story.

"That does sound like there\'s a very good chance that those crystals are indeed Creation Crystals! Finally, the Heaven Controlling Vial has reappeared in the True Immortal Realm!" Immortal Lord Miao Fa exclaimed with an ecstatic expression.

However, a cold look then appeared in her eyes as she asked, "If you\'ve already found out about this matter, then why didn\'t you report it to me earlier?"

"Please forgive me! I was too greedy and wanted to capture Han Li and the Heaven Controlling Vial myself before offering them up to you in the hope that I would be granted a handsome reward.

“However, he was too powerful for me to defeat, so I had no choice but to turn to you," Dongfang Bai said as he fell to his knees, and there was a panicked look on his face, but if one were to look closely into his eyes, they would discover that he was actually very calm and collected.

There was no hiding what had happened with Han Li, so as opposed to lying and inevitably being caught later, it was better for him to admit to his own faults from the get-go.

From there, he spoke about the blatant disregard that Han Li had displayed toward the Heavenly Court, much to the fury of Immortal Lord Miao Fa.

Han Li was still in the Golden Origin Immortal Region at the moment, so Dongfang Bai knew that Immortal Lord Miao Fa would have to rely on him for Han Li\'s capture. Hence, he was confident that he wouldn\'t be punished too severely for his transgressions.

Sure enough, Immortal Lord Miao Fa\'s expression eased slightly as she asked, "Where is he right now?"

Dongfang Bai was very relieved to see this, and he hurriedly replied, "I\'ve sent out some people to search for him, but the search hasn\'t yielded any results yet. However, I\'ve already issued orders for all of the teleportation arrays in the Golden Origin Immortal Region to be shut down, so I\'m certain he must still be near the Golden Origin Mountain Range."

"You did well. You may have made a significant contribution in uncovering these leads on the Creation Crystals, but you also made a grave transgression in your inappropriate handling of the matter. For now, your contributions and transgressions cancel each other out, so whether you\'re going to be punished or rewarded will depend on what you do from here onward.

“If you can capture Han Li and secure the Heaven Controlling Vial, I\'ll let your past transgressions slide and even personally request a reward for you from our temple master. However, if you let him escape from the Golden Origin Immortal Region, I\'m sure I don\'t need to tell you what\'s going to become of you, right?" Immortal Lord Miao Fa asked in a threatening tone.

"I\'ll do everything in my power to capture Han Li. However, I\'m afraid that my Golden Origin Immortal Palace simply doesn\'t possess the power required to accomplish such a feat," Dongfang Bai replied in a hesitant manner.

"Rest assured, I\'ll send the Lan siblings of the Vast Golden Immortal Palace to help you. Keep searching for Han Li\'s whereabouts, but make sure to be careful and don\'t scare him into hiding," Immortal Lord Miao Fa warned.

"Yes, I understand!" Dongfang Bai replied in an ecstatic manner.

The Lan siblings of the Vast Golden Immortal Palace were a vastly renowned brother-and-sister duo. Even though both of them were only at the late-High Zenith Stage, they had a secret technique that allowed them to temporarily combine their cultivation bases to reach the Great Encompassment Stage.

The two of them had made a name for themselves after fighting a Great Encompassment cultivator of the Reincarnation Palace for three days and three nights without suffering a defeat.

With the Lan siblings on his side, Han Li would essentially have to face two Great Encompassment cultivators at once, and there was no way he could overcome such fearsome opposition.

With that in mind, Dongfang Bai was feeling much more reassured.

Immortal Lord Miao Fa issued a few more instructions to him, then cut off their communication, and Dongfang Bai heaved a long sigh of relief as he retrieved the purple badge from within the communication array.

......

In a certain pink palace somewhere in the Heavenly Court.

The entire palace was filled with a soft, pink glow, as well as a delicate, feminine aroma.

Deep within the palace was an ornate bed surrounded by a pink veil canopy. There was a young woman seated on the bed, and it was none other than Immortal Lord Miao Fa.

At this moment, there was a yellow toad that was far larger than the bed resting beside it. Its earthy yellow skin was riddled with hard lumps, and what was most peculiar about the creature was that there were six large eyes on its face, giving it a rather unsettling sight to behold.

Even though the yellow toad was merely resting beside the bed, it was giving off an enormous aura that wasn\'t inferior to Immortal Lord Miao Fa\'s by much, and its cavernous mouth perked up slightly at the corners as if it were smiling as it said, "Congratulations, Mistress. If you can secure the Heaven Controlling Vial, the temple master will be sure to reward you handsomely. The post of deputy temple master has always been vacant, and it\'ll be yours for the taking."

"I don\'t really care for that. All I\'m hoping is that in exchange for my efforts, the temple master will provide me with some guidance in how to sever my second corpse soul," Immortal Lord Miao Fa replied.

"Indeed, power is always paramount," the yellow toad chimed in in agreement.

"She Chan, relay my orders to the Vast Golden Immortal Palace. Also, make a trip to the Golden Origin Immortal Region," Immortal Lord Miao Fa instructed after a brief silence.
