Chapter 1102: Mystery of the Divine Lamp
"Didn't Han Li obtain the Heavenly Li Fire Bead? Could it be that someone took it from him?" Xiong Shan asked with a puzzled expression.
Qi Mozi offered no response as he flipped a hand over to summon a palm-sized golden mirror, which released a burst of golden ripples that quickly swept through the surrounding area in a radius of several dozen kilometers before returning to the mirror.
Three bursts of light then appeared over the mirror's surface, one golden, one white, and one red.
The golden light was giving off bursts of time law power fluctuations, while the white and red light were both emanating fire law power fluctuations.
In particular, even though the red light was far smaller than the white light, the law power fluctuations that it was giving off were far more formidable than those released by the white light.
"What are these red fire law power fluctuations? They must be extremely formidable to be able to dominate the fire law powers of the Heavenly Li Fire Bead!" Xiong Shan remarked.
"What you're seeing is a wisp of essential fire law powers, so of course it far surpasses the fire law powers of the Heavenly Li Fire Bead," Qi Mozi explained.
"I see," Xiong Shan mused with a stunned expression. "But who could've left these law power fluctuations behind? I don't recall seeing anyone cultivating the laws of fire among the people who entered the Eon Pagoda."
Qi Mozi's expression darkened slightly upon hearing this.
Among all of the laws of heaven and earth, the three paramount laws reigned supreme at the top, but essential laws were nothing to scoff at, and they ranked below only the three paramount laws in power.
Qi Mozi was familiar with everyone who had entered the Eon Pagoda, and he knew that there were none among them cultivating the laws of fire. With that in mind, he couldn't help but wonder if someone else had snuck into the Eon Pagoda without his knowledge.
"There's no point in thinking too much about it, we'll find out once we catch up to them," Qi Mozi said, and Xiong Shan naturally raised no objections to this.
With that, the two of them departed as two streaks of golden light.
......
Meanwhile, Han Li was continuing to make his way up the mountain with the fiery, silver figure perched on his shoulder.
The higher up they went, the thicker the surrounding white mist became, and it had almost taken on a substantial form, clinging to the streak of light around Han Li to drastically slow him down.
As the mist became denser, the resistance continued to increase, and before long, Han Li's speed had been reduced to only 10% of its peak.
All of a sudden, Han Li's expression changed slightly as he stopped in his tracks, then peered into the dense, white mist up ahead with a peculiar look on his face.
The silver figure turned to Han Li with an inquisitive expression, as if to ask why he had suddenly stopped, but he offered no explanation as he continued to look straight ahead.
He could clearly sense a burst of incredibly formidable time law power fluctuations up ahead, and it was clearer and more pronounced than ever.
He could tell that the golden flames on the altars shared the same origins as the source of the time law power fluctuations up ahead, and if he wasn't mistaken, then what was up ahead was most likely the Eon Divine Lamp.
Earlier, Han Li had questioned Lei Yuce in detail about the seal on the Dark Heavens Devilish Deity, and he had learned that the Dark Heavens Devilish Deity was trapped in a primary array where the Eon Divine Lamp was also situated, while the five array cores only acted as subsidiary structures to bolster this primary array.
Now that he was able to detect what he strongly suspected to be the Eon Divine Lamp, the place where the Dark Heavens Devilish Deity was sealed was most likely just up ahead.
This was naturally a very encouraging sign, and he sped up even further.
However, in the next instant, a resounding boom rang out as he crashed into what seemed to have been an invisible wall, and the golden sword projection around him was instantly shattered, while he was knocked back through the air.
Fortunately, he remained unscathed thanks to his tremendous physical constitution.
The white bead within the sword projection was also knocked back by the impact, and the silver figure hurriedly devoured it again.
What just happened?
After taking a moment to steady himself, Han Li cast his gaze forward, upon which he spotted a barely visible white light barrier in the mist up ahead.
The light barrier was semi-transparent, and there seemed to be no end to it in sight.
Han Li was unable to gauge its full scale with his spiritual sense, and it stood before him like an all-encompassing barrier.
Deep within the white light barrier, he could see a ball of radiant, golden light that was giving off bursts of time law power fluctuations.
Han Li's eyes immediately lit up slightly upon seeing this, and he flew over to the white light barrier before trying to peer into the golden light beyond, but he was unable to make out anything.
However, he was certain that that was where the Dark Heavens Devilish Deity was sealed.
He turned his attention back to the white light barrier before him, then pressed a hand against it.
The light barrier was slightly soft to the touch, but at the same time, he could tell that it was extremely resilient.
Han Li's brows furrowed slightly as all of his profound acupoints lit up, following which he threw an almighty punch into the light barrier.
A resounding boom rang out as his fist sank deep into the light barrier, causing it to ripple violently, and the nearby space also began to rumble and quiver.
However, the white light barrier didn't display any signs of weakness, and it released a burst of tremendous, repulsive force that sent him flying back through the air for two to three thousand feet before he managed to arrest his own momentum.
The repulsive force was so strong that his internal organs had been given a massive jolt, and even with his immense physical constitution, his complexion had paled noticeably, and he was forced to take a moment to steady himself.
Han Li's expression darkened slightly as he channeled his Heavenly Baleful Purgatory Arts, transforming into an enormous devilish deity with three heads and six arms in the blink of an eye.
The three heads were those of the Giant Mountain Ape, the True Dragon, and the Kun Peng, and an enormous aura erupted out of the devilish deity's body, causing the nearby space to tremble violently.
The golden light beyond the white light barrier suddenly rippled slightly, only to immediately revert back to its original state.
Han Li was too busy focusing on the light barrier to notice this fleeting change in the golden light beyond it, and he let loose a thunderous roar as he rammed his six fists into the white light barrier.
His fists sank deep into the light barrier, causing it to ripple and shudder far more violently than before.
However, even so, the light barrier was still able to hold itself together, and a burst of tremendous, flexible power surged forth to slowly nullify the unfathomable power in Han Li's fists.
