Chapter 590: Final Preparations
In the sky above the azure mountain range, the ball of white light began flashing erratically as countless white runes surged out of it.
A dull thump then rang out as the ball of light abruptly exploded, scattering into countless specks of white spiritual light.
The Gold Devouring Immortal shuddered as a hint of lucidity slowly returned to its glazed-over eyes, and the white vortexes deep within its pupils faded as it looked around with a bewildered expression.
"What happened? Haven't I already returned to the Insect Race and progressed to the Great Encompassment Stage? What am I doing here?" it roared in an alarmed and furious voice.
All of a sudden, its expression stiffened as it cast its gaze forward.
It had detected the aura of its target, the target that it was already supposed to have captured and devoured, and its aura had become significantly more powerful than before!
Could it be that I fell prey to some type of illusion?
The fury in the Gold Devouring Immortal's eyes gradually faded as it turned to inspect its surroundings.
It was a calm and pleasant day with a warm breeze blowing over the azure mountain range, and there didn't appear to be anything amiss.
The Gold Devouring Immortal quickly withdrew its gaze as a hesitant look appeared on its face.
It raised one of its front limbs before extending it forward, and the golden light radiating from its body suddenly converged in front of it to form a circular golden array.
There were countless golden runes dancing within the array, and it seemed that some type of secret technique was being used.
All of a sudden, a stunned look appeared in the Gold Devouring Immortal's eyes as it exclaimed, "I've already been here for 20 years!"
A fearful look then appeared on its face as it hurriedly began scanning its surroundings again.
The Gold Devouring Immortal had been residing in the primordial land for countless years, so it was naturally far more familiar with the primordial land than an outsider like Han Li.
The Insect Race and the Beast Race were nothing more than insignificant races situated on the outskirts of the primordial land, while the true rulers of the land were the four monarch races.
All of the four monarch races were extremely powerful and presided over enormous territories, claiming all of the regions of the primordial land with the most abundant spiritual qi.
Furthermore, there were countless powerful beings among their ranks, including a whole host of Golden Immortals and Jade Immortals, and each of the four races was led by a Great Encompassment Stage patriarch, the four of whom were collectively known as the four sages.
The Gold Devouring Immortal was already at the late-High Zenith Stage, so it didn't fear the four monarch races, but it was very much apprehensive of the four primordial sages.
At this point, it had already entered the territory of one of the four monarch races, namely the Almighty Rat Race.
The Gold Devouring Immortal had come all this way in pursuit of Han Li and Jin Tong, but it had been inexplicably trapped here in an illusion for 20 years.
20 years was not a very long time, but the Gold Devouring Immortal knew that the only ones in the primordial land capable of trapping it in an illusion for this duration were the four sages.
With that in mind, a contemplative look appeared in its eyes.
It was said that Patriarch Gu of the Almighty Rat Race was a mysterious figure who was barely ever in the primordial land, and he wasn't supposed to be particularly adept in illusions, either. Instead, the Heavenly Fox Race, which directly neighbored the Almighty Rat Race, was far more skilled in casting illusions.
Could it be that the Great Encompassment Stage patriarch of the Heavenly Fox Race did this to me? But why? Is he trying to warn me not to set foot in the territory of the four monarch races?
Jin Tong and Xiao Bai could tell that Han Li had a plan, and both of them were feeling much more reassured.
"Continue cultivating here in the meantime. Jin Tong, make sure to keep constant tabs on the Gold Devouring Immortal, and tell me right away if anything changes," Han Li instructed.
"You can count on me, Uncle!" Jin Tong replied.
After that, Han Li flew back into the ravine, and he quickly reached the bottom.
Mo Guang had already gotten up from his cultivation, and upon spotting Han Li, he immediately rose to his feet before cupping his fist in a salute.
Han Li briefly relayed what he had been told by Jin Tong to Mo Guang, then added, "We'll be requiring your power to oppose the Gold Devouring Immortal, Fellow Daoist Mo Guang."
"I'm happy to help. I'll begin preparing right away. I can't promise too much, but at the very least, I should be able to maintain my High Zenith Stage powers for 15 minutes when it comes time to battle," Mo Guang replied.
"That's good to hear," Han Li said with a smile, while Mo Guang returned to his seated cultivation.
A contemplative look appeared on Han Li's face, and swept a sleeve through the air to summon a large stack of array tools of different colors, while Daoist Xie also appeared beside him amid a flash of golden light.
"Daoist Xie, please help me set up these arrays here," Han Li said.
Daoist Xie nodded in response, then took some of the array tools from Han Li, and the two of them
The two of them were busy at work for close to half a month before completing the arrays.
At this moment, Han Li was hovering in mid-air while chanting an incantation, and specks of light were flashing incessantly throughout the entire ravine.
Bursts of tremendous power were also surging through the area, some of which were extremely hard and strong, while others were more soft and resilient, and they were all working together to stir up the surrounding baleful qi.
All of a sudden, all of the specks of light and the bursts of power faded, leaving no trace behind, and the unrest in the baleful qi also quickly subsided.
Han Li gave a pleased nod upon seeing this, then descended to the bottom of the ravine, where he sat down with his legs crossed before sweeping a sleeve through the air, summoning a series of immortal treasures, all of which were glowing radiantly while giving off bursts of law power fluctuations.
Han Li picked up these immortal treasures before examining them one by one, making some final preparations for the upcoming battle.
He had already done everything that he could to brace himself for the imminent storm, but the opponent was going to be a late-High Zenith Stage Gold Devouring Immortal, so he had to be extra meticulous.
After carefully examining all of the immortal treasures, he stowed them away again, and all that was left on the ground at this moment was the Profound Heavenly Gourd.
Han Li observed the gourd for a moment, then picked it up and began to examine its opening.
That part was still lighter in coloration than the rest of the gourd, but it had become a lot darker than before, and the green light emanating from the gourd had also become brighter.
A faint smile appeared on Han Li's face upon seeing this.
Even though he had been fleeing from the Gold Devouring Immortal this entire time, he had made sure to consistently water the gourd using the spirit liquid from the Heaven Controlling Vial, and it was clearly working.
At this rate, it should be able to reach full maturity in no more than a century.
Han Li examined the gourd for a moment longer, then opened his mouth to release a burst of azure light that vanished into it.
A layer of countless tiny runes instantly emerged over its surface, and the runes were constantly flowing like water while releasing bursts of law power fluctuations that kept all of the baleful qi within a radius of several dozen feet at bay.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
