A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Immortal Realm

All of a sudden, Han Li swept both sleeves through the air, sending five Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords flying toward the oncoming giant hand, while he rushed back in retreat.

Five sharp clangs rang out in rapid succession, and the five Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Swords were sent flying back before tumbling into the sea down below after clashing against the giant skeletal devil's hand.

At this point, Han Li had only just retreated to several thousand feet away, and before he had a chance to recover his flying swords, a gust of howling wind abruptly swept through the air behind him.

The giant skulls on top of the eight bone pagodas had all opened their mouths up wide to release thick bone chains that were hurtling directly toward him like eight white bone spears.

Han Li was just about to channel his Reversal True Axis to take evasive measures when he suddenly discovered that his arms had been completely immobilized by his sides, rendering him unable to make any hand seals.

Only then did he notice that an exoskeleton of white bone had appeared over his arms, enveloping his elbow joints, and it was spread like creeping frost toward his hands and his shoulders.

Was it that drop of white liquid? Han Li thought to himself with a bewildered expression.

His brows furrowed tightly as he stomped both feet heavily down onto the space beneath him, launching himself upward, and at the same time, countless arcs of golden lightning erupted out of his body to strike the spreading exoskeleton.

However, after the golden lightning faded, not only had the exoskeleton not been broken, it had spread to cover an even larger area on his body.

Before he had a chance to do anything else, the eight bone chains had already wrapped themselves around his arms and legs, immobilizing him in mid-air.

Han Li could feel the chains pulling him apart with tremendous power, causing all of his joints to creak and groan. If the average Jade Immortal had been in his place, they would've most likely already been pulled apart at the seams.

At the same time, jets of green flames erupted out of the eye sockets of the eight skulls on the bone pagodas, and they surged along the bone chains before inundating Han Li's entire body.

The green flames weren't giving off any heat. Instead, it was merely slightly cool to the touch, but in the instant that it came into contact with Han Li's body, an alarmed look instantly appeared on his face.

The green flames weren't harming his body or his soul, but they were directly incinerating his bones.

After just a few seconds, Han Li began to feel a numb sensation in his bones, as if they were being gnawed on by countless tiny bugs, making them frail and brittle.

After reaching the High Zenith Stage, Han Li's skeleton had become extremely resilient, but it stood no chance against Daoist Master Bone Shine's bone withering law powers.

Right at this moment, a burst of silver light flashed over his body, following which a layer of scorching silver flames erupted forth like a fiery silver cloak, forcing back the invasive green flames.

After completely refining the three balls of Rainbow Fire Pill Sand, the Essence Fire Raven's silver flames had become far more formidable than before, and the green flames were quickly overwhelmed and forced back into retreat.

However, the Essence Fire Raven refused to let the green flames off the hook, and it sped along the bone chains in pursuit, determined to devour every last ounce of the green flames.

Daoist Master Bone Shine only took a single glance at the Essence Fire Raven before his gaze returned to Han Li.

This High Zenith Stage human seemed to have an endless bag of tricks, and if this battle were to drag on any longer, there was no telling what other tricks he could pull out.

With that in mind, Daoist Master Bone Shine raised a hand before plunging it directly toward Han Li.

At this point, Han Li's arms and his entire abdomen had been encased in that layer of white exoskeleton, and on top of that, he was also bound by the eight bone chains, so it was impossible for him to take any evasive measures.

However, as Daoist Master Bone Shine's gaze fell upon Han Li's face, he discovered that Han Li was looking completely calm and collected, displaying no panic or fear at all.

Something's not right...

A sense of foreboding welled up in Daoist Master Bone Shine's heart, yet before he had a chance to retreat, a familiar cold gleam suddenly flashed through Han Li's eyes.

"Impossible!" Daoist Master Bone Shine exclaimed with an alarmed expression.

A semi-transparent sword that was only around an inch in length had shot out of Han Li's glabella, and it instantly pierced through Daoist Master Bone Shine's hand before hurtling directly toward his glabella.

A faint crack rang out, and in the next instant, the golden rune on his glabella disintegrated into specks of golden light, which an enormous translucent sword appeared in his consciousness before swinging down with tremendous power.

The runes on the surface of the sword were flashing incessantly, giving off immense spiritual sense fluctuations that caused Daoist Master Bone Shine's consciousness to churn and tremble violently, as if it could split apart at any moment.

At the same time, his spiritual sense was rapidly dissipating like snow under the scorching sun.

His soul was already severely wounded, and it was trembling violently in the face of the powerful shockwaves, barely able to hold itself together.

Daoist Master Bone Shine let loose an indignant roar of fury, but his spiritual sense was still rapidly fading, and his vision was gradually becoming blurry.

His giant skeletal body began to shrink, and he quickly reverted back to his human form.

At the same time, the green flames on the eight bone pagodas gradually began to wane, and the bone chains protruding out of the mouths of the skulls on top of the eight bone pagodas were also quickly retracted.

With no more green flames to devour, the Essence Fire Raven circled around in the air, then flew back to Han Li.

Upon noticing the hard exoskeleton immobilizing Han Li's arms and abdomen, it transformed into a silver fireball that crashed straight into Han Li's chest, then spread itself over the exoskeleton to incinerate it with all its might.

Right at this moment, a near-animalistic roar rang out.

At this point, Daoist Master Bone Shine's eyes were completely bloodshot, and there was a deranged look on his face as he slammed a palm heavily onto his own glabella.

Inside his consciousness, a giant palm projection descended out of the heavens before slamming into the Spiritual Sense Sword with tremendous power.

The sword shuddered violently, and the translucent light radiating from it rapidly faded away, following which it vanished from within Daoist Master Bone Shine's consciousness.

In the next instant, a tiny translucent sword shot out of the back of his head, then circled around in the air before flying back to Han Li and vanishing into his glabella.

After striking himself on the forehead, Daoist Master Bone Shine was able to dispel the crisis of the Spiritual Sense Sword, but his injuries were further exacerbated as a result, and he involuntarily flew back through the air.

His hair had become extremely disheveled, and his eyes had almost turned completely dull, giving him the appearance of a lost and panicked old man who stumbled away before fleeing as a streak of light.

Following Daoist Master Bone Shine's departure, his bone withering spirit domain faded away along with the eight bone pagodas.

Meanwhile, as soon as the miniature sword flew back into Han Li's consciousness, his head immediately shot back as if he had been dealt a heavy blow, and his spiritual sense had also been severely overexerted. He was only just barely able to recover all of his treasures before his body gave out, and he plummeted straight out of the sky.

The Essence Fire Raven could see that he had fallen unconscious, and it caught him on its back, then gently flew down onto the same rock from before.

Once there, the silver flames continued to swirl over his body, burning away the white exoskeleton.

Only the next morning did the exoskeleton completely fall away, and during this entire time, the Time Dao Runes on the golden ring above his head continued to fade one after another.

……

Several days passed by in a flash.

One morning, as the sun rose up over the horizon, the first ray of sunlight shone down onto Han Li's face, and his eyelashes fluttered slightly before his eyes slowly opened.

After burning away the restrictive exoskeleton, the Essence Fire Raven reverted back into a miniature silver figure, then sat down onto Han Li's chest with its arms and legs crossed to keep a lookout for him.

As soon as Han Li opened his eyes, it immediately jumped up to look at him with an elated expression.

Han Li's head was feeling very dull and heavy from spiritual sense overexertion, and his vision was unable to focus. He wanted to get up into a sitting position, but his entire body was racked with agony, and he felt as if there were an enormous mountain weighing down upon him.

It seemed that due to the fact that he had come here through physical transmigration, he was constantly being suppressed by the Great Dao of this time and space, thereby resulting in these negative symptoms.

Han Li channeled his Great Universe Origin Arts, and a layer of hazy white light appeared over his body. Only then were his eyes able to focus on the Essence Fire Raven, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

The fiery silver figure immediately jumped onto his shoulder, then began to make wild and exaggerated gestures in an attempt to communicate something to him.

"Alright, I know, I know, you were the one who freed me from that exoskeleton, and you also brought me here and protected me this entire time," Han Li said with an amused smile.
