Chapter 1047: Clueless
Han Li made a hand seal upon seeing this, and bursts of golden lightning instantly erupted out of his Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Sword, forming a blade of golden lightning that swept through the air.
The blade of lightning tore through the golden light in the air with ease, revealing an area of clarity in which Han Li's vision wasn't impeded.
The winged metal beast seemed to be rather wary of the oncoming lightning blade, and it flapped its wings and sprang up into the air.
Meanwhile, Han Li was peering through the opening in the golden light that had just been created by the blade of lightning, and he spotted no fewer than a hundred golden stone pillars in the distance, with a different metal beast perched on top of each one.
Right before Han Li's eyes, these metal beasts opened their eyes one after another before leaping down from their stone pillars and silently approaching Han Li like a pack of predators stalking their prey.
As the swordlight unleashed by Han Li's Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Sword faded away, the surrounding golden light filled his field of view again, concealing the approaching metal beasts from him.
"What's going on?" Yu Kuohai yelled upon hearing the commotion up ahead, but he received no answer.
At this moment, a sense of foreboding had begun to well up in everyone's hearts, and they instinctively gathered a little closer to one another to form a more tightly knit group.
"There seems to be something in the golden light," Elder Yang said in a hesitant manner, and everyone felt even more uneasy upon hearing this.
Right at this moment, the sound of urgent footsteps suddenly rang out from up ahead, and everyone hurriedly raised their weapons, preparing for an attack.
All of a sudden, a figure burst out of the golden light, and Yu Kuohai was already prepared to strike, yet right as he was about to lash out, the figure yelled, "Stop! It's me, Shi Mu!"
