Chapter 1262: Back Against the Wall
A sharp clang rang out as a streak of yellow swordlight erupted out of the giant sword, and it split up into two streaks of sword qi, one of which rose up into the air, while the other descended toward the ground.
The clouds up above were parted amid a burst of thunderous rumbling, and they surged to either side in a frenzy to create an enormous rift that was hundreds of kilometers wide, making it appear as if the entire sky had been sliced into two.
At the same time, the other streak of sword qi crashed down from the heavens to split the entire Jade Flagon Peak into two, leaving a bottomless trench running right down its center.
Han Li was situated at the deepest point of the trench, having fallen all the way into the underground cave cellar.
Countless jars of wine that had been stored in the cellar for countless years had been smashed open, and a rich, wine aroma wafted up into the air, making it seem as if the entire Jade Flagon Peak was a massive wine flagon that had been shattered.
Han Li was laying on the ground amid the wreckage in a spreadeagled pose, and his entire body was drenched in wine.
He struggled into a seated position as a sense of powerlessness welled up in his heart. A cultivator of Yue Qing's caliber was simply far too powerful for him to contend with, and even an escape was looking completely out of reach.
He had already attempted to call out to the vial spirit, but just like before, he received no response.
Right at this moment, a burst of tremendous pressure suddenly came crashing down as a vast expanse of yellow light filled the entire heavens.
Han Li looked up into the sky from the bottom of the chasm, and all he could see was a massive vortex of yellow clouds swirling up above, with the occasional flash of lightning visible within it.
With a sweep of his sleeve, thirty-six Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords came flying out to surround him.
