Chapter 1062: Inevitable Death
Ghost King Wu Chao made a grabbing motion with one hand, and a palm-sized black cage appeared over the palm of his hand, within which arcs of golden lightning were flashing incessantly.
Han Li's thirty-six Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords were currently confined in the cage, and they were struggling to free themselves with all their might, but to no avail.
"You finally decided to show up," Han Li scoffed.
"Earlier, I had sensed something that posed somewhat of a threat to me, but I was unable to ascertain exactly what it was. I had thought that it would be something in the possession of one of those two, but it seems like you're the hidden threat here," Ghost King Wu Chao chuckled.
"Are you referring to my Divine Devilbane Lightning? Haven't you already captured it?" Han Li asked as he feigned a surprised expression.
"This lightning is indeed a pain to deal with, but it's not enough to pose a threat to me. I've been faced with countless tribulations over the course of my cultivation journey, and I've even lost count of how many immortal envoys I've killed," Ghost King Wu Chao sneered, and right as his voice trailed off, a long spatial rift suddenly appeared behind Han Li without any warning.
A cloud of incredibly dense black mist surged out from within, and countless ghostly feelers and claws emerged from the cloud of mist, grabbing at Han Li while cutting off all avenues for retreat and evasion.
Han remained completely still on the spot as countless arcs of golden lightning erupted out of his body, making it appear as if he had donned a suit of golden armor.
As soon as these ghost claws and feelers came into contact with the golden lightning, they immediately recoiled as plumes of black smoke began to rise up from them.
Han Li swiveled around as he threw a punch into the cloud of mist, and clusters of profound acupoints lit up over his body as a burst of radiant starlight erupted out of his fist, illuminating the entire cloud of black mist.
All of the feelers and claws immediately shrank back into the mist as if they had been scorched by the starlight.
