"He's simply stubborn!"
Yuan Chao's face was gloomy. The moment he finished speaking, he unhesitatingly raised his hand and slapped out. An abnormally large green palm image condensed in the sky and rumbled as it pressed down. It was as if a mountain had collapsed and a river had turned upside down. A terrifying might instantly filled up an extremely vast space.
However, Liu Li did not dodge, nor did she retaliate. She only looked at Yuan Chao with a smile.
"Boom —"
Yuan Chao frowned slightly. Just as a trace of doubt surfaced in his heart, the huge green palm had already pressed down on Liu Li's body. Amidst the earth-shaking ringing sounds, the huge green palm actually smashed Liu Li's body into pieces with a destructive force. Then, with the force of a thunderbolt, it smashed onto the mountain range below.
In an instant, sand and stones flew in all directions and dust swirled.
The mountain that was thousands of meters tall collapsed and caved in at a speed that was hard to catch with the naked eye. In less than a breath of time, the mountain peak had disappeared without a trace, and a huge crater that was shaped like a palm print quickly appeared where it was originally standing.
As for Liu Li, there were no longer any traces of her existence.
"Dead?"
Seeing this scene, Yuan Chao could not help but be startled. However, as soon as this thought appeared, he threw it to the back of his mind. Even if Liu Li was no match for him, a dignified Empyrean level powerhouse would not be able to dissipate her soul so easily. There must be some other reason behind this.
His enormous mind enveloped the entire area as Yuan Chao carefully sensed it.
After about two to three breaths of time, Yuan Chao seemed to have sensed something. He extended his hand and a small ball of white and green light rose up from the depths of the pit.
In the blink of an eye, it had already landed in his palm. It was actually a sparkling leaf.
Before Yuan Chao could examine it carefully, the leaf rapidly dissipated into nothingness, and not even a trace was left behind. It was as if it had never appeared.
Yuan Chao immediately understood what was going on. A green aura surfaced on his face, and anger rose in his eyes, as if it was about to explode. Liu Li quietly condensed a leaf as her substitute, attracting attention in front of her, while her real body had long since escaped from Suo Mao's pursuit.
"Damn it!"
Yuan Chao growled out, "Liu Li, you are courting death. That Tang Huan can deceive the Heavenly Dao, this old man does not believe that you can also deceive the Heavenly Dao! Elder Suo, hand over the aura that you have gathered along the way to this old man! "Two seemingly solid gazes looked toward Suo Mao in the distance with monstrous killing intent.
Although this killing intent wasn't directed at Suo Mao, it still caused Suo Mao's heart to tremble.
"Yes."
Suo Mao did not dare to be negligent and immediately responded. A ball of misty white Qi floated towards Yuan Chao. Although Liu Li had also restrained her aura to the extreme, she was still not as thorough as Tang Huan. There were still some weak auras that continued to leak out, and were collected by Suo Mao who was following behind her.
After receiving the ball of aura, Yuan Chao floated down with an ashen face and sat cross-legged on top of a giant tree.
First, Tang Huan escaped, and then, she was toyed with by Liu Li. This caused the anger in his heart to reach its peak.
Thus, he couldn't wait to deduce the location of Liu Li in order to vent the anger in his heart.
Time passed bit by bit …
Yuan Chao's body was like a statue, unmoving. As for Suo Mao, before he received Yuan Chaoxin's orders, he could only quietly wait nearby.
"He's actually hiding over there!"
After a long while, Yuan Chao suddenly opened his eyes and snorted coldly with a gloomy expression. Then, like a flowing shadow, he quickly disappeared into the horizon.
Seeing this, Suo Mao could only follow.
"Boom —"
Not long after, an earth-shattering explosion once again erupted from a forest hundreds of thousands of miles away. In the center of the dust and sand that rolled like a wave, an abnormally large pit once again appeared between the heavens and the earth. It was still shaped like a palm print, as if it had been forcefully pressed out by a giant palm.
Yuan Chao stood in the air above the pit, another white and green leaf in his palm quickly disappearing into thin air.
At this moment, Yuan Chao's expression was extremely unsightly, like an ancient beast that had been completely enraged. In his eyes, the anger seemed to be about to erupt like a volcano, and his entire body seemed to be surrounded by a ruthless aura that could destroy the heavens and the earth, causing one's heart to tremble.
After Suo Mao sensed that something was wrong, she stopped far away, in case she got too close and touched the bad luck. In her heart, she was also quite surprised at Liu Li's methods, to actually be able to condense such a substitute to guide Yuan Chao's deduction, this was not something that any Empyrean could do.
At the very least, none of the Empyreans he knew had such a method.
Most importantly, Liu Li and her substitute were perfectly connected. Before the substitute dissipated, she could even be used as her real body. At this moment, Suo Mao had a strong premonition that although Liu Li's deduction technique was extremely brilliant, it would be very difficult to find Liu Li's real body.
There was no doubt that Yuan Chao, who was ranked third on the revered list, was strong. However, if he could not find the Liu Li Real Body, no matter how strong he was, it would be useless.
Counting it up, Liu Li had already used a substitute twice. If Yuan Chao was unwilling to be toyed with and wanted to continue deducing, then what he would meet next would definitely be Liu Li's third substitute, fourth substitute … He even had a premonition that Liu Li's substitute might be endless.
It was indeed not a wise move to tangle with such an opponent.
Around the pit, the dust and sand dispersed.
After standing there quietly like a wooden sculpture for a long time, Yuan Chao seemed to have finally woken up. He took a deep breath and shouted in a low voice, "Elder Suo, immediately return to Star Fantasy City and continue to guard the ancient teleportation formation. You must not let Liu Li escape from your side."
"Yes sir!"
Suo Mao secretly heaved a sigh of relief and immediately left.
After watching Suo Mao leave, Yuan Chao's forehead was covered in a dense haze. If Suo Mao was able to discover the problem, he would naturally be able to as well. If he continued to tangle with Liu Li's substitute, it would be a waste of time. The most important thing right now was to find Tang Huan and force him to reveal the secret of his aura's transformation.
As for this Liu Li, he only needed to trap her in the Flying Star Sky.
In the future, if his cultivation could advance a step further, or if Gu Daozi, who was ranked first on the revered list, returned to the sect, it wouldn't be too late to deduce and identify Liu Li's real body and substitute. After understanding this, no matter how angry Yuan Chao was, he could only swallow the anger in his heart.
Only after a long while did Yuan Chao's emotions completely calm down.
"Liu Li, today, this old man will let you go. After this old man captures Tang Huan, no matter how many substitutes you have, you will not be able to escape death!"
