Chapter 364: Final Roll of the Dice
The golden dao pill shuddered violently upon being struck by the beam of golden light, and arcs of lighting were flashing over its surface.
At the same time, the golden light that it was giving off quickly began to dim, and the enormous spiritual energy that it contained was beginning to display signs of dissipating.
Most importantly, the two golden dao marks on its surface were also flashing erratically, looking as if they were about to rise up from the dao pill and fly toward the golden vortex up above.
Han Li's heart immediately sank upon seeing this.
He had already activated his Mantra Treasured Axis's time-slowing effect, but the beam of golden light was completely unaffected, perhaps because it was also imbued with the power of time laws.
His mind was racing as he made a rapid string of hand seals in a desperate attempt to stabilize the dao pill.
At the same time, bursts of time law powers surged out of the Mantra Treasured Axis, enveloping the golden dao marks on the pill to keep them in place.
However, even with his tremendous power, it was very difficult to stabilize the dao pill and keep the dao marks in place, and at this rate, it would only be a matter of time before the dao pill was completely destroyed.
The golden dao pill was trembling incessantly, as was Han Li.
Stabilizing the pill wasn't just a matter of using as much effort as possible. Instead, he had to strike an extremely meticulous balance, so his immense immortal spiritual power wasn't helping him much here.
Right at this moment, the golden cloud in the sky began to churn once again in an even more violent fashion, resembling a turbulent golden sea.
The speed at which the golden vortex was revolving also increased significantly, and more rays of piercing golden light appeared at its center, resembling arcs of pulsing lightning.
In the next instant, a burst of even more suffocating pressure erupted out of the vortex before descending upon Han Li's cave abode.
The entire cave abode shuddered along with the island that it was situated on, and the cracks on the walls of the cave abode widened even further.
An urgent look appeared on Han Li as he sensed what was happening outside, and his Mantra Treasured Axis also began to revolve rapidly at his behest while all of its Time Dao Runes were giving off dazzling golden light.
A vast burst of golden light surged out of the axis, and it was filled with countless golden runes that were giving off intense time law power fluctuations.
This burst of time law power was almost twice as powerful as what it had previously released, and the burst of golden light instantly split up into several dozen streaks at Han Li's behest, with every single one of them forming a flashing thread of golden light, all of which were emanating formidable time law powers.
The dozens of strands of golden light shot forth before wrapping themselves around the golden dao marks on the pill, and the trembling of the dao marks finally subsided a little, while the violently surging spiritual power within the pill also settled down slightly.
However, Han Li didn't dare to grow complacent, and he continued to try and stabilize the pill with all his might.
At the same time, a series of Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords flew out of his body before forming a circular sword barrier above his head.
Immediately thereafter, his Heavy Water True Axis also appeared, then swelled to over 10 times its original size before also positioning itself above him.
The Heavy Water True Axis was rapidly revolving while producing bursts of loud rumbling, while more treasures continued to fly out of Han Li's body one after another.
There were the silver bell, strange sword, and Integrated Five Extremes Mountain that he had obtained from Tao Yu, as well as those two yin-attribute immortal treasures and all of the other formidable treasures in his collection.
During these past few centuries, he had already completely refined these treasures, granting him complete mastery over them.
With the support of his immense spiritual sense and immortal spiritual power, all of the treasures released layers upon layers of thick light barriers that virtually filled the entire secret chamber.
Han Li had only just completed these preparations when a resounding boom rang out overhead, and a pillar of golden light that was far thicker than the one before came crashing down upon the cave abode.
The entire surrounding space shuddered violently as gusts of fierce wind swept through the area, raising waves that were several hundred feet tall over the surface of the nearby sea.
This pillar of golden light was extremely bright, and it resembled a bolt of lightning, once again passing through the restrictions and ceiling of the cave abode with ease before striking the outermost starlight barrier formed by the Seven Bright Star Rings.
Just like before, the pillar of golden light pierced through the starlight barrier without any trouble, then went on to strike the sword net formed by the Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords.
The golden pillar of light was struck by countless peerlessly sharp streaks of sword qi, but once again, it remained completely unaffected, passing right through to strike the Heavy Water True Axis, which also posed no resistance.contemporary romance
All of the light barriers in the secret chamber were flashing erratically, but their efforts to keep the pillar of golden light at bay remained completely futile.
However, the pillar of golden light had been slowed down a little, so it appeared that Han Li's efforts weren't completely futile.
Even so, the situation was still quite dire.
He had already done everything in his power, yet the pill tribulation still refused to be stopped.
Up to this point, the dao pill still wasn't even close to reaching a state of stability.
Given how damaging the first pill tribulation had been, if it were struck by this second pill tribulation that was even more formidable, then it would surely be completely destroyed.
Never had he imagined that the realm would reject dao pills so vehemently.
He continued to resist with all his might while the pillar of golden light passed through several more light barriers, and it was slowed down even further in the process.
All of a sudden, Han Li seemed to have noticed something.
The pillar of golden light had seemed to have pierced through the first few layers of light barriers without any trouble, yet he could tell that it had shrunk down a little.
It seemed that this pill tribulation wasn't unstoppable, after all.
With that in mind, Han Li opened his mouth to release a ball of blood essence, which split up into several smaller balls before vanishing into the treasures around him.
At the same time, he released all of his immortal spiritual power without any reservation, injecting it into the remaining treasures.
At this point, he had no choice but to make one final roll of the dice.
All of the treasures lit up significantly while giving off even more formidable law power fluctuations, while the pillar of golden light continued to descend.
One light barrier after another was pierced through as the pillar of golden light rapidly approached the dao pill, and Han Li's expression darkened even further.
The pill tribulation had been weakened up to this point, but the effects were still too minimal.
Right at this moment, the pillar of golden light passed through the black flag immortal treasure, then began descending toward the Integrated Five Extremes Mountain.
At this point, there weren't many treasures left in its path.
Han Li took a deep breath, and 35 specks of golden light suddenly appeared over his body.
He was planning to unleash a secret technique that could stimulate the latent potential of his immortal acupoints, and it could take up to a century for him to recover from the repercussions, but he had no choice.
All of a sudden, a burst of faint buzzing rang out up above.
Han Li looked up to see what was happening, and a surprised look instantly appeared in his eyes.
As it turned out, the bright gray light released by the Integrated Five Extremes Mountain had formed a gray barrier that had managed to stop the seemingly unstoppable pillar of golden light in its tracks.
Neither the gray light nor the golden light seemed to be able to get the better of the other, and an elated look appeared on Han Li's face as he hurriedly abandoned the secret technique that he was just about to unleash.
He cast his gaze toward the gray light around the Integrated Five Extremes Mountain to find that it was giving off bursts of law power fluctuations, and this was the exact same type of law power that he had been trying to identify before.
It was this burst of law powers that had stopped the pillar of golden light cold in its tracks, and an enlightened look appeared in Han Li's eyes upon seeing this.
The Integrated Five Extremes Mountain had the innate ability to weaken lightning tribulations, and he had refined it for the purpose of helping him transcend his ascension tribulation. This pill tribulation was most likely a type of lightning tribulation as well, so it was no wonder that the Integrated Five Extremes Mountain could pose meaningful resistance.
It seemed that this Integrated Five Extremes Mountain was a far more formidable treasure than he imagined.
The Integrated Five Extremes Mountain that he had initially refined had been quite powerful, but only in the context of the Spirit Realm, and it couldn't even have been considered to be an immortal treasure in the Immortal Realm.
However, Tao Yu had dedicated a large amount of resources to refining this treasures, and Han Li had been rather perplexed by this, but he now realized that Tao Yu had most likely been willing to invest so much into the Integrated Five Extremes Mountain as he was already aware that it would be very effective at warding off pill tribulations.
However, this wasn't the time to be pondering such matters.
The Integrated Five Extremes Mountain was able to keep the pillar of golden light at bay, but the pill tribulation was extremely formidable, and the gray light being released by the Integrated Five Extremes Mountain was slowly being overwhelmed.
However, at the same time, the pillar of golden light was also slowly shrinking.
Han Li's eyes narrowed slightly upon seeing this, and he immediately cast aside all of his other treasures to focus solely on supporting the Integrated Five Extremes Mountain.
One treasure after another came clanging down onto the ground, but Han Li didn't spare them so much as even a single glance.
He had invested countless time, effort, and resources into refining this dao pill, and he certainly wasn't going to accept failure at the last hurdle.
