Sacrifice Begins, Soul Bone Battle

"Shall we start now?"

Broad Hill saw that Han Li was deep in thought, and only asked after he came back to his senses.

"No, we still need to prepare a little. Tian Meng, you can enjoy your last moments as Ice Silkworm."

Han Li shook his head, then turned his head and teased Tian Meng.

Tian Meng was taken aback when she heard this, and looked down at her chubby body.

It actually disliked its origins at one point, because its original race was the Ice Silkworm. So even though it was incredibly lucky and became the first million-year-old Soul Beast, its combat power was pitifully weak.

But when it came time to actually give up this identity, it felt a pang of nostalgia.

However, it quickly made up its mind that it would still change its race. But even if it changed its race, it would still be Tian Meng. It would always remember that it was an Ice Silkworm. It was just trying to survive better.

The matter of Tian Meng was basically agreed upon. Han Li let the three women come out of the Stone Chamber, while he walked back to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and sat down cross-legged on the water.

He has been inside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well for a month, during which time the Divine Realm has been unable to detect his situation.

He needed to speed things up. Although the time flow was different, keeping the screen black on the other side was risky; who knew what they might do?

Ignoring Tian Meng, who was still being watched warily by several people but seemed completely unconcerned about his boasting, Han Li focused his mind on his Spiritual Space and quickly communicated with the Plane Consciousness about the next steps.

For the next two days, apart from occasionally stepping out of the pool to eat, Han Li seemed to the group of people and the beast to be either frantically cultivating or occasionally sneaking into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, doing something unknown.

It wasn't until the morning of the third day that Han Li left the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and set foot on the ground again.

"Nailed it?"

Broad Hill handed over the food, which could be considered a rhetorical question.

"Okay, we'll start in a bit."

Han Li quickly finished his food and said with satisfaction.

"How can I help you?"

Broad Hill served him another bowl.

"Once it starts, take them away from the area. The noise will be quite loud. Try to prevent any potential leaks."

Han Li slowed down his eating and looked at his master.

"Good."

Broad Hill nodded, then moved closer to him, sealed off the surroundings with her Soul Power, and after confirming that Tian Meng was still asleep, she lowered her voice and said, "If there are any unexpected events, just give up on it. I'll call your Grand Uncle-Master later, and we'll help you obtain Soul Ring from other Ferocious Beast."

Upon hearing his master's words, Han Li couldn't help but chuckle. He truly lived up to his master's reputation.

"Don't worry, I'm more afraid of dying than you are."

Broad Hill laughed when she heard his reply, "Ha, okay, I'll help you guard the perimeter and make sure no one disturbs you."

After the others had finished eating breakfast, Han Li repeated the same thing to them.

Finally, he turned his gaze to the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, which was happily gulping down its food.

"You stay here and wait for my signal to perform the sacrifice immediately."

Aside from the sacrifice, Han Li didn't give it any other instructions. He had already prepared his Soul Power and Spiritual Power, and didn't need Tian Meng's assistance. The reason was that he didn't trust it for the time being.

Tian Meng nodded, indicating that it understood, but then looked at its own body again and began to eat in small bites.

"Alright, that's enough for now. You can leave for the time being."

Han Li stood up, and Tian Meng followed behind him, heading towards the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, while the others got up and walked outside.

After confirming that everyone had emerged from the Poisonous Miasma through his senses, Han Li sank into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, leaving only the Tian Meng Beast standing blankly by the pool.

Within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Han Li his Dualistic Domain to envelop himself, continuously descending until he completely merged into the two-colored pool of water.

The pool wasn't very deep; in just over ten seconds, Han Li's feet were already on the bottom, stopping in front of the two massive skeletons.

This wasn't the first time he'd come down, but on previous occasions, he had only observed without getting close enough to touch them, even though both skeletons held a great attraction for him.

With a flash of light, the Ice Fire Divine Dragon Bow appeared in Han Li's hand.

This time, he did not resist the attraction, but let his Martial Soul fly directly to the two skeletons and absorb the aura above them.

As the two began to interact, the Ice Fire Divine Dragon Bow began to tremble incessantly. At the same time, the water in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well also began to boil, and in an instant, the basin above was filled with mist, completely obscured by a white fog.

Seeing that the two had already linked, Han Li no longer hesitated and went over directly. Different elemental energies emanated from his arms, which he then pressed onto the two skeletons.

It hurts, it hurts so much! In just an instant, Han Li's body responded, and the excruciating pain made him kneel down on the ground.

Not only that, his Spiritual Space was also attacked at the same time.

Resentment, hatred, and unwillingness—all sorts of negative emotions constantly assaulted Han Li's mind. Dragon roars rang out repeatedly, shouting for revenge. Under these circumstances, Han Li's will began to falter.

"Since they're already dead, then they should die properly. Plane Consciousness, gather all your Faith Power and cleanse them."

Because of the pain, Han Li's face was contorted, and he even swore, which was rare for him.

In the Spiritual Space, Han Li manipulated his Spiritual Power, transforming it into a dense rain of arrows to snipe at the chaotic dragon-shaped resentments.

As his shout subsided, a burst of brilliant golden energy erupted from his body, suppressing the gray resentment that enveloped him.

The location of the Ice Fire Divine Dragon Bow has formed a massive vortex around it, which is devouring the aura from the corpses while drawing energy from the pool water, emitting a dazzling light.

Han Li's arms were no longer on the skeleton, but instead radiated red and white colors, hanging limply at his sides, as if weighing a Qian Jun.

"Get up."

Han Li had somehow transformed into his full form, revealing all his Soul Ring and Soul Bone.

With his roar, his third Soul Ring lit up, and the Evil God Hook instantly became straight, stabbing fiercely towards the bottom of the pool. His azure Wind-Thunder Wings also flapped wildly.

Using this force, his body shot upwards like an arrow, and at the same time, the Ice Fire Divine Dragon Bow, along with the whirlpool, surged towards the surface of the water.

"Boom"

A loud bang erupted from the pool as Han Li and the Ice Fire Divine Dragon Bow leaped out of the water, followed by a waterspout that seemed to be under his feet, creating a spectacular scene.

Unfortunately, the only spectator present was not in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery; instead, he was wailing and rolling on the ground.

Tian Meng felt bitter; it never expected that it would suffer further torment even as it was about to be sacrificed.

It was standing peacefully by the pool when Han Li suddenly appeared, and not only that, but he made such a commotion. It was drenched in pool water, though not as intensely as before, the amount was still considerable.

"Sacrifice".

As Tian Meng writhed on the ground in pain, she heard Han Li's voice.

Tian Meng forced herself to look up despite the pain and saw Han Li staring at her in mid-air with murderous intent. The red light in his right eye was particularly intimidating, as if he would launch an attack if he hesitated any longer.

Tian Meng's body trembled slightly. Not daring to be negligent, she wriggled and immediately mobilized all her energy to begin the sacrificial ritual.

A massive crimson pillar of light shot into the sky, shattering the energy shield surrounding the Yin-Yang Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and breaking the blockade that the Plane Consciousness had been maintaining over this place.

In that instant, everything in the entire Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well seemed to freeze; the wind stopped, and the leaves floating in mid-air were also locked in mid-air.

The next second, intense energy began to pour back towards Han Li.

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's body was shrinking rapidly, and three wisps of energy were being extracted from it, passing through the crimson six-pointed star of rules above Han Li's head before entering his body.

Meanwhile, the damage to Sky Dream Ice Silkworm caused by the pool water was rapidly disappearing. This was the power of the rules; the sacrificer would not be harmed during the process, and the damage suffered previously would not be reflected back to the main body.

A gentle force carried the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm into the previously opened Stone Chamber, along with a snow-white bone that had been forcibly inserted into its body before the sacrifice ended.

Tian Meng fainted instantly, and her bones began to rapidly erode her fragile body.

Outside, above the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

As the three wisps of Tian Meng's power entered Han Li's body, his condition finally stabilized temporarily.

Without the slightest resistance, the energy belonging to Tian Meng directly became Han Li's own energy. At this moment, Han Li, relying on the Faith Power to protect against the resentment of the broken dragon soul, focused all his energy on controlling the energy within his body.

Under Han Li's guidance, a large amount of Soul Power and Spiritual Power continuously poured into his original four External Soul Bone, rapidly strengthening Soul Bone and increasing their lifespan.

Seventy thousand years, eighty thousand years, one hundred thousand years.

After the External Soul Bone collectively broke through to 100,000 years, they vaguely established some kind of connection and began to attack Han Li's 100,000-year-old right leg bone.

After only a brief resistance, the Blue Silver Emperor's leg bone defenses were breached, and a vast surge of energy flowed through the entire Soul Bone, rapidly transforming it and establishing connections with other Soul Bone.

Meanwhile, the million-year-old spiritual skull that Tian Meng had contributed had completely merged with Han Li. The original white jade-colored Soul Bone had been stained light red, becoming the eldest brother of the Soul Bone Alliance.

"Now, it's just you guys left."

A ruthless glint flashed across Han Li's face. Without hesitation, he mobilized all his Soul Power and Spiritual Power, ramming them into his arms, carrying all his original energy and residual resentment, and sending them out of his body.

An absurdly large energy ball appeared in front of Han Li, and above the energy ball, the Ice Fire Divine Dragon Bow floated silently, forcing the energy ball to solidify.

At this moment, a platinum halo quietly appeared above Han Li's head.
