Hell Road, Fixed-Point Sniping, One Shot, One Arrow
Looking around, Han Li saw that apart from the circular platform with a diameter of five meters under his feet, there was Abyssal Depths all around.
Only a narrow path, less than half a foot wide and barely wide enough for two feet to stand at the same time, leads into the unknown darkness. This is also the only way for their platform to reach the outside world.
Looking back at the others who were still meditating, Han Li moved closer to the edge of the platform and gazed down into the abyss.
His right eye emitted a pale red light, piercing through the darkness below. The scene at the bottom of the abyss came into view. At the very bottom, the blood-red pool of water churned, as if it had Life of its own, radiating a rich energy.
I really want to jump down and try it. If all the energy here were drained, I wonder how many titles could be created.
Han Li felt a stirring in his heart, but he suppressed the thought.
Putting aside the danger below, if he were to jump, the Slaughter King would definitely come out to fight him to the death, and Qian Daoliu would be of no use.
Unfortunately, Han Li sighed slightly.
When he has the means, he will definitely come here. It would be such a waste to leave all his savings sitting there.
Burying his thoughts deep inside, Han Li walked back to the group.
Although the Hell Road amplifies killing intent, the existence of the Blood Fiend Art, coupled with more than a year of time, has also significantly increased the Spiritual Power of the group.
Soon after Dugu Bo recovered, the three women opened their eyes one after another. At this time, the killing intent could no longer affect them.
"If you need to take action later, try not to unleash your killing intent."
Han Li carefully checked the condition of the three people and gave them some instructions.
The three women exchanged glances and nodded obediently. The uncontrollable killing intent they felt earlier was truly unpleasant; no wonder the people of the Slaughter City all looked like that.
"Is this the only road?"
While Han Li was checking on the others, Dugu Bo also took a quick look at the surroundings, his brows furrowed.
"It should be correct."
Han Li shrugged, indicating that this was indeed the case.
"Then let's go, I'll go first."
Dugu Bo glanced at the group and then volunteered to lead the way.
"Please don't rush, let me try out the rules here first."
Han Li stopped him, and blue wings unfolded from his back. After thinking for a moment, flames spewed out from under his feet, and he rose directly into the air.
The moment he stepped off the platform, he summoned the Ice Fire Divine Dragon Bow. Under his control, the Soul Power arrow transformed into a thin line, one end held in his hand and the other end sent to Dugu Bo's hand.
Having made all the preparations, he confidently stepped towards the platform.
One step, two steps, and I stood steadily in mid-air.
Then, Han Li's wings flapped, and he quickly disappeared from their sight, plunging into the darkness ahead.
A few more breaths passed, and Han Li flew back to the circular platform, the Soul Power threads formed by the arrows dissipating.
"Let's go. Flying ability and the ability to fly inherent in one's Soul Bone are not prohibited here. I'll go first, Grandpa, you bring up the rear, and Sister Xiu'er will follow behind me. You keep an eye on her, and I'll handle any danger."
Han Li spoke directly and methodically.
"Alright."
Dugu Bo did not insist. Since flying was not prohibited, he had nothing to worry about.
After saying that, the group immediately activated their Martial Soul Possession and walked towards the narrow path.
After walking for about three minutes, things finally changed ahead. In Han Li's mental scan, a large group of Life forms suddenly rushed in.
The other four also noticed that Han Li's pace had slowed down, and Dugu Bo also used his Spiritual Power to probe ahead.
"Do you need my help?"
He called out from between the three people.
"No need, please continue. I can handle it."
Han Li smiled and turned around to reply. As soon as he finished speaking, the two-colored domain began to rotate and spread outwards from him as the center.
The buzzing sound grew closer, and the group saw a large swarm of blood-red bats rapidly approaching them.
Although Han Li said he could handle it himself, the group still kept a close eye on the attacking bats as they moved forward, ready to provide support at any time.
It looks somewhat like the Slaughter King, but I wonder if it's a descendant of it. By the way, what about the Darkgold Three-Headed Bat King? Is it also a descendant, or perhaps its mate?
Next time, I must ask. I wonder if this old bat has reached the level of Ferocious Beast. Han Li even had the mood to let his mind wander.
It's not entirely his fault; the main problem is that these bats are weak, far too weak. They're all show and no substance. Aside from their numbers, they're utterly insignificant.
Whether it's their blood-sucking ability, their ultrasonic waves, or the storms caused by their group flapping their wings, they all have a limited range of attack.
However, after Han Li unleashed the Dualistic Domain, it almost directly covered most of the area, although this also caused the damage to be less concentrated.
But don't forget, his Ice and Fire Elements strength is almost the highest in the world. Under such circumstances, these little things, which are not even sure if they are hundred or thousand years Soul Beast, are killed in large numbers when they are hit by the alternating impact of two opposing high-intensity elemental energies.
If you're lucky, you might be Ice Seal the moment you're ignited. Even if you fall downwards, at least you'll end up with a whole corpse.
Those less fortunate were instantly reduced to dust by the impact of the two extreme energies, their very existence Mingdu.
They come in a rage and leave in a hurry; that's probably a perfect description of these bats.
In less than five minutes, Han Li wiped out the attacking little creatures while chatting and advancing, without even needing to finish them off.
"Are we going down? What's below? Lava?"
Feeling the temperature around him rising, Dugu Bo casually asked.
"The Blood Pool is the accumulation of the Slaughter City thousands of years. As for the temperature, it is probably due to the energy it contains."
Han Li gave a casual reply, then raised his left hand, signaling the people behind him to stop.
Is there something ahead?
Dugu Bo, puzzled, used his Spiritual Power to probe forward.
"There's a big guy down there, but don't use your Spiritual Power to probe it, it's very sensitive to that."
Han Li turned his head and pointed to the lower side.
Dugu Bo then realized that Han Li had activated all his Soul Bone at some point. It has to be said that, sometimes, the effects of his Soul Bone are much more useful than his Spiritual Power.
"A giant bat?"
Dugu Bo peeked in the direction Han Li was pointing, but saw nothing.
"Hmm, it's the three-headed kind. Let's just take care of it here and save ourselves the trouble later."
As he spoke, Han Li had already drawn his bow.
Unlike before, Han Li this time deliberately covered the arrow with his domain, concealing the fluctuations of Soul Power on it.
Not only that, but to the astonishment of the group, the arrows grew thicker and thicker until they were almost half the width of a bow.
"Is it that difficult? Maybe I should go down and deal with it first."
Seeing his imposing manner, Dugu Bo spoke up.
"It's not exactly strong, but that guy has three heads. Not only is it highly self-healing, it can also split. I guess I'm just being prepared."
"Oh, the information the Slaughter King gave me."
Han Li added a fabricated sentence.
Anyone who believes that is a fool. The four of them rolled their Byakugan at him and said nothing.
After several years of getting along, they no longer investigated Han Li's occasional precognitive abilities; they simply accepted it as such.
"Alright, hurry up and do it. Can you even call this an arrow anymore?"
Dugu Bo gave him a disgruntled look.
"A single shot, even if it's a bit thick, doesn't count as an arrow."
Han Li retorted defiantly, then released his right hand, muttering to himself, "Take this Demonic Light Piercing Cannon."
The three women in the middle couldn't help but cover their mouths and chuckle. Although they didn't know what a cannon was, it was clear that Han Li himself didn't consider his attack to be an arrow.
Even before Han Li's arrow attack arrived, his mental attack, imbued with ice element, struck all three of the Darkgold Three-Headed Bat King's heads simultaneously before it could react.
Sensing the mental fluctuations, the Darkgold Three-Headed Bat King was about to move when all three heads were struck simultaneously, causing his thinking to slow down.
Where... is the enemy? The thought had barely left its mind when a massive beam of energy descended from the sky, instantly enveloping its entire head and exploding after passing through it, engulfing its body in Ice and Fire Elements.
"All done, let's move on."
Perhaps because he was about to leave, Han Li became much more lively. He stylishly put away his bow and made a gesture towards the four of them.
Seeing the two-colored fireworks light up in the darkness below, the group felt much better and followed Han Li ahead with smiles.
After taking a long detour, the group finally arrived at the location where the Darkgold Three-Headed Bat King had been.
Han Li searched around but found nothing. Regretting it, he carried Xiu'er and flew over the road break caused by his attack, continuing onward.
The air grew increasingly scorching, and gradually, even those behind him could vaguely see the dark red flowing beneath the abyss on either side.
The air, which was starting to get scorching hot, made it very uncomfortable to breathe, as if my lungs were on fire.
"This blood river is not much different from lava. Without the Blood Fiend Art and the Purification Power, many people who are trying to break through the Hell Road would probably lose control just by getting here."
"No wonder you didn't fly them down directly, but instead walked along the road and let them gradually adapt."
Dugu Bo licked his lips; this suffocating feeling was unpleasant.
"Well, after all, only ten people have managed to leave here in the last thousand years. Obtaining a domain isn't that easy. We took a shortcut, so by going through it and experiencing it more, we can at least gain something."
Han Li glanced at the three women and, after confirming that they were in relatively good condition, slowed his pace.
In terms of combat strength, the three of them are definitely much stronger than Hu Liena, who came from the Slaughter City in the original work. However, in terms of willpower, they are still somewhat weaker than Hu Liena, who died if she couldn't get out.
However, Han Li felt that this was enough.
He wasn't exactly a person with exceptional willpower, nor did he like to glorify suffering. Willpower is something that no one knows how strong it will be until faced with dire circumstances. He preferred to simply crush others with sheer strength.
"Get ready. You'll be the ones to fight later. Your Grandfather and I will cover for you. Don't worry about the road being destroyed. We should be nearing the end soon."
As Han Li walked forward, he spoke to the three women behind him.
"Okay, no problem."
Upon hearing this, the three women were also eager to try, wondering what kind of enemies awaited them ahead.
