Chapter 1575 - Chapter 1575 Chapter 674 The Taoist Ancient Array

Chapter 1575: Chapter 674: The Taoist Ancient Array, Distribution of Origin Crystals Chapter 1575: Chapter 674: The Taoist Ancient Array, Distribution of Origin Crystals Though Han Yi had put away the Three Thousand Sword Realm, the violent fluctuations it emitted became even more intense.

The surging Divine Force, the eerily shattering black mist, the dissipating Chaos Primordial Qi, the Trickster obliterated into nothingness with only faint ripples remaining, and the cracks on Han Yi’s body–all highlighted the terrifying aspects of this battle.

Short lived it might have been, but the intensity of combat was top-tier within the first stage of the Tao Realm.

Houtu as the Taoist Ancestor was taken aback.

She had naturally witnessed the nearby skirmish and, while anxious for Han Yi, her Combat Power was not strong, with only her Yellow Ling Divine Ribbon having the effect of trapping an enemy. The other two Immortal Artifacts that had not yet ascended to Tao Artifacts had negligible offensive impact against the Tao Realm Trickster.

After all, her ascent to the Tao Realm was just two thousand years past at best. If not for her fortunate opportunity to achieve enlightenment, any other Ancestor at this time would still be in their weakened phase post-ascension.

Therefore, she did not rashly charge in. Once she did, not only would she be unable to help Han Yi but she would also become a burden to him.

But what followed, Han Yi’s terrifying performance, struck her with shock and awe.

Powerful.

Overwhelmingly powerful.

Against two first-step Tao Realm Tricksters who were by no means weak, Han Yi managed to withstand their attacks, killing one Trickster first and then scaring the other into fleeing, only for the escapee to fall into a trap they had set beforehand. She merely used a Tao Artifact to force the Trickster back into the mysterious Sword Formation.

After that, there was nothing left for her to do.

Though her Combat Power was not strong, Houtu as the Taoist Ancestor had lived for several Chaos Eras, millions of years, and her insight was not slight. She kept a close eye on the entirety of Han Yi’s performance.

This outburst from Han Yi, compared to when she encountered him while being chased in the past, was a completely different state. Last time, Han Yi merely sought to repel the pursuer, but this time, upon learning the whereabouts of the Origin Crystal, his determination was remarkably strong, almost to the point of being resolute.

And the result was laid out before her.

In less than the time it took for ten breaths, two Tricksters much stronger than her were slain on the spot, and Han Yi had sustained only minor injuries.

No.

Not minor injuries.

Houtu’s pupils narrowed slightly; the bloodstains and wounds on Han Yi’s body began to close at a visible rate as he stepped out of the mysterious Sword Formation.

Such fearsome Recovery Power.

Worthy of being from the first clan of Chaos, the Chaos Divine Race.

Houtu took a deep breath.

Not far from her, Han Yi, after killing the second Trickster, collected the remaining items–a total of just four. He turned to look at Houtu, and before he could speak, Houtu preemptively said:

“This battle was led by Han; I didn’t play much of a role. The spoils of victory should all belong to Han.”

Houtu indeed only used the Yellow Ling Divine Ribbon to block a strike from the Trickster and did not directly join the fight. Moreover, Han Yi faced the two Tricksters head-on, eliminating the danger exploring the Cave Heaven presented. It was only right that she claimed nothing from this encounter.

Han Yi nodded and took the four items into his body, along with the three left behind from the first slain Trickster, suppressing them all within a newly formed Divine Aperture World.

Among these seven items were a strange Wooden Fish and a decayed wooden plank that had been bitten but was now whole again, as well as an unidentified black leaf that looked quite bizarre. Han Yi naturally would not place them within the Daluo Realm but had to suppress them by establishing a Divine Aperture World.

The weapons of the Tricksters were exceedingly strange.

He would thoroughly investigate them after this expedition was over.

Han Yi pocketed the items and quickly flew toward the location of the Illusory Cave Heaven.

“Although there are only two Tricksters nearby for now, it doesn’t guarantee that they don’t have other accomplices or that no other Tao Realm beings will notice the anomaly here,” he said.

“We need to be quick.”

Houtu followed closely behind him, feeling the same sense of urgency. If a stronger entity were to appear, the opportunity they had secured might slip through their fingers.

A moment later, Han Yi arrived at the position of the Illusory Cave Heaven, which was considered the central area of the vast Chaos Ruins. Ordinary Immortal Venerates might not withstand the spatial pressure and the temperature fearsome enough to melt high-stage Immortal Artifacts.

With a wave of his hand, Han Yi took out ninety-nine Sword Tools. As soon as they appeared, the eighth-tier Sword Tools began to tremble slightly due to the peculiar nature of the space, causing the spirits within the Immortal Artifacts to become restless.

With a thought, he promptly erected the Three Thousand Sword Realm, using the collective strength of the Sword Realm to withstand the terrifying space of the area.

Next, he masked the entrance to the Illusory Cave Heaven with the condensed aura of the Sword Realm and concealed it.

Only then did he raise the Gluttonous Sacrifice Divine Axe and gently swiped forward, cracking open the entrance to the Cave Heaven. Stepping through with Houtu, they entered.

The space shifted, and before their eyes unfolded an endless oceanic expanse. As far as his Divine Thoughts could reach, the entire world was water with no land in sight.

This was a world of water.

Upon stepping into this place, pale red text surfaced in his vision panel once again.

“Life Seed detected, cannot be absorbed!”

Han Yi frowned; initially, he thought the seclusion of this Water World was the reason he couldn’t absorb the Life Seed. To his surprise, even upon entering this world, the restriction remained.

This meant that somewhere in this world, there was a special prohibition at the Origin’s location that prevented his absorption.

His Divine Thoughts probed beneath the waters, and his eyes lit up as he submerged into the depths at an extremely fast pace. Moments later, he floated in the profound depths of vast waters.
