Chapter 1238: Sword Array VS Underworld Magistrate
In the face of the oncoming tongue, Han Li channeled his time law powers and dodged to the side, only just barely managing to evade the attack.
At the same time, he noticed that the lightning patterns on the tongue had disappeared.
Right at this moment, Weeping Soul let loose a thunderous roar, and the white light emanating from the bone spikes on her back began to glow radiantly as it resisted against the walls of crimson light, destroying them layer by layer.
However, a burst of golden light suddenly erupted out of the destroyed walls of crimson light, and this was accompanied by a resounding thunderclap.
Dozens of Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords suddenly descended out of the crimson light, and they connected together with one another to form a circular, golden lightning array to suppress Weeping Soul once again.
Arcs of golden lightning were churning over Weeping Soul's back like boiling water, and given that the golden lightning within the Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords had a suppressive effect on all ghostly beings, they were naturally very effective on Weeping Soul as well, and it didn't take long before her back was reduced to a mass of torn and ravaged blood and flesh.
Han Li was frantically trying to summon his Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords back to himself through their spiritual connection, and the swords were trembling violently as they strove to return to his side, but with the crimson light clinging to them, they were unable to act of their own volition.
As the flying swords descended out of the sky with the underworld magistrate's boot, Han Li let loose a loud roar as he bit through the tip of his own tongue, then sprayed a mouthful of blood onto the combined Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Sword in his grasp.
The Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords that had been seized by Gui Lingzi instantly began to tremble even more violently than before, and they were able to struggle free from their constraints before flying back to him.
With the Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords and their golden lightning removed, the pressure on Weeping Soul was greatly lessened, and she reverted back to her human form, then sprang back to Han Li's side, evading the falling boot in the process.
"His ghostly powers are indeed rather different. It's as if his powers have reached their peak and have returned to a more natural state, granting it a righteous quality, and that has robbed me of my usual advantage against ghostly cultivators," Weeping Soul explained while panting heavily.
