Chapter 1154: Eight Regal Bloodlines
In the face of the storm of ax projections, Han Li displayed no intention of backing down. Instead, he accelerated even further as he charged straight into the fray.
Contrary to everyone's expectations, he wasn't immediately torn to shreds. Instead, he was able to force his way through all of the ax projections with his physical body alone before descending upon the giant rhinoceros being.
The rhinoceros being was rather taken aback by Han Li's formidable physical constitution, but he could sense that Han Li's aura wasn't particularly powerful, so he charged forward with his ax raised in a fearless manner.
Han Li stomped a foot down onto the sharp edge of the giant ax, and a resounding boom instantly rang out as the ax exploded into pieces.
The rhinoceros being's arms shuddered violently from the impact, and a numb sensation instantly spread through his entire body as his legs gave out from under him, forcing him to his knees.
Taking advantage of the force of the impact, Han Li sprang up into the air again to evade a sneak attack from the feline being, and right as his assailant was passing him by, he grabbed onto the back of his neck, then gave it a gentle squeeze, and the feline being immediately lost the ability to resist.
He carried the limp and powerless feline being by the scruff of the neck as he crashed down onto the rhinoceros being's shoulder, forcing him to bow his head to the ground.
All of this had taken place in the blink of an eye, and most of the primordial beings from the two tribes didn't even get a chance to catch a clear glimpse of what had happened before they discovered that their leaders had been subdued by Han Li.
All of them came rushing back from the ridge to surround Han Li while yelling demands for him to release their leaders.
Han Li paid no heed to them as he hoisted up the feline being's body with one arm so that their faces were level with each other, and he asked, "What are your two tribes called, and why are you fighting here?"
The powerless feline being merely took a resentful glance at Han Li and offered no response.
"I'm sure you know what a soul search technique is, right? Don't force me to use it, or you're going to regret it," Han Li threatened in a cold voice.
The feline being shuddered slightly, but remained silent.
Han Li gave a cold harrumph as he raised a finger before extending it toward the feline being's forehead, and a translucent thread shot out of his fingertip before making its way toward the feline being's glabella.
To Han Li's surprise, the rhinoceros being beneath his feet suddenly answered his question in the feline being's stead.
"We are the Silver Horn Rhinoceros Tribe, and they are the Cloud Spot Tiger Tribe. We are fighting here because our two tribes have been sworn enemies for generations."
Han Li raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, and it immediately occurred to him that this was a rather strange turn of events.
"If you're sworn enemies, then why are you speaking up for him? It looks like you don't want me to search his soul, so that must mean that you're trying to hide something from me," Han Li deduced with a cold smile.
A look of alarm and frustration appeared on the rhinoceros being's face upon hearing this, and he was internally cursing humans for their cunning ways.
"Where is this adolescent beast right now?" Han Li asked as he looked down at the Silver Horn Rhinoceros being.
The latter offered no response, but a strange gleam had appeared in his eyes.
Han Li hurriedly pressed a hand down onto the Silver Horn Rhinoceros being's head as he harrumphed, "I commend you for your bravery, but you're not going to detonate your own soul under my watch."
"You won't get any information out of me!" the Silver Horn Rhinoceros being roared.
A burst of translucent light emerged from the palm of Han Li's hand as he used his Spirit Refinement Technique to protect the Silver Horn Rhinoceros being's consciousness, thereby preventing him from detonating it.
"You have tens of thousands of brethren, so even if you detonate your own soul, I'll still be able to find that adolescent beast just fine, do you understand? I don't want to have to kill you, so don't go throwing your own life away for no good cause," Han Li said in a cold voice.
The Silver Horn Rhinoceros being calmed down a little upon hearing this, but he then immediately objected, "You humans are not to be trusted! Just kill me!"
"It's up to you whether you trust me or not, but I can tell you that I bear no ill will toward that adolescent beast. I have some questions for you, and I'll let you go once you've answered them," Han Li said.
The Silver Horn Rhinoceros being was slightly swayed upon hearing this, given that Han Li had refrained from killing the Cloud Spot Tiger being and also prevented his own self-detonation.
Han Li could see that the Silver Horn Rhinoceros being was coming around a little, and he asked, "Which area of the primordial land are we in right now?"
The Silver Horn Rhinoceros being was clearly rather taken aback by this question, and it took a moment for him to reply, "We are a subsidiary tribe to the Earth Dragon Tribe, and we are on the southwestern outskirts of the Earth Dragon Tribe's territory."
Han Li was rather flabbergasted to hear this. What kind of answer was this?
After some contemplation, he adopted a different line of questioning.
"How are areas in the primordial land distinguished from one another, and where is this area of the primordial land relative to the nearby immortal regions?"
"Our primordial land has always been split up into territories ruled over by major tribes, such as the territory of the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox Tribe, or the territory of the Bright Regal Peacock Tribe. Relative to the nearest immortal regions, the Earth Dragon Tribe's territory is somewhere between the Golden Origin Immortal Region and the Spirit Platform Immortal Region," the Silver Horn Rhinoceros being replied.
The Spirit Platform Immortal Region is right next to the greater Golden Origin Immortal Region...
Somehow, he had ended up near the greater Golden Origin Immortal Region once again.
Han Li suppressed this thought as soon as it surfaced in his mind.
After being pursued by Chi Meng and Immoratal Lord Miao Fa, he had come to realize just how massive a disparity in power there was between him and mid-Great Encompassment cultivators, and he knew that venturing into the greater Golden Origin Immortal Region to search for Jin Tong would be a complete suicide mission.
