The loose cultivators who came to intercept Han Li each had their own thoughts, but none of them were fools, overcome by greed? That simply didn't exist!
"Is that so?"
Han Li's figure flashed, appearing behind the red-robed loose cultivator, and suddenly slapped out. Before the cultivator had time to react, Han Li struck him hard on the back.
Boom!
The red-robed loose cultivator crashed into the ground, creating a ten-foot-deep pit, with stones flying and dust filling the air.
As the dust settled, the loose cultivators who had already fled to a distance couldn't help but look back. They saw that the red-robed cultivator had a large hole in his chest, a through and through wound, with his organs being burned by a purple fire.
The eyes of the red-robed cultivator were wide with disbelief. He lifted his hand as if he wanted to speak, but in the next second, he was dead.
"Hiss!"
The loose cultivators in the distance couldn't help but gasp in shock, running even faster, sparing no cost to use secret techniques to increase their speed.
The red-robed loose cultivator was the strongest among them, a seventh-layer Pihai Realm practitioner, and he was cut down in a single move. Han Li was undoubtedly a Gangyuan Realm great master.
They actually thought about intercepting a sixth-layer great master?
The loose cultivators silently swallowed their saliva, filled with immense regret; they shouldn't have come for the interception.
"Do you really think I'm so idle?"
Looking at the red-robed loose cultivator who died with his eyes open, Han Li shook his head, too lazy to waste his breath, and immediately went all out.
Han Li took out the Sun Chasing Bow, looked toward the six fleeing loose cultivators, drew the bowstring to the limit, and released it, with six True Yuan condensed arrows chasing after them like shooting stars.
Falling Star Arrow Manual, Second Style: Meteor Shower!
This style of archery was most suitable for the current situation, capable of firing up to ten arrows at once, each possessing eighty percent of his full power.
Although the six loose cultivators had run away the moment Han Li made his move, their cultivation was not high, so how far could they run?
They were quickly overtaken by the meteor arrows, and even though they struggled to defend themselves, they were directly killed without exception.
Without cleaning up the battlefield, Han Li immediately flew in another direction, and soon arrived at a place ten miles away.
"Oh, running quite fast, but can you really escape?"
There was no one else around, and in the distant sky, a figure was rapidly fading into the distance. It was Lu Renbin, who had planned to cash in on the chaos.
"Damn it!"
"How did I encounter such a shameless great master."
Lu Renbin felt somewhat unlucky. He had just joined the loose cultivators' gathering along the way, and ended up in the net of a sixth-layer great master.
He had already slowed down when he sensed something was wrong, even staying behind ten miles away to wait. The moment Han Li showcased his power and attacked the red-robed loose cultivator, he immediately fled without daring to delay.
If that old money was to discover him, it would be disastrous – he couldn't defeat a Gangyuan Realm great master, and the hard-earned treasure he had stolen would fall into the hands of another.
After flying out for over twenty miles, Lu Renbin looked back and saw no pursuers, allowing himself to breathe a sigh of relief.
With his ninth-layer Pihai Realm cultivation and using a secret technique, his speed was even faster than that of an ordinary Gangyuan Realm practitioner. It was normal for Han Li not to catch up, perhaps Han Li hadn't even noticed him.
"It seems I must be more cautious in the future. The cultivation realm is too dangerous."
Lu Renbin sighed softly, about to continue his flight and leave the Daqian Empire, but he froze.
A few hundred meters ahead on a small hill, a figure was standing erect, hands behind his back, facing away from him. Though the face wasn't clear, Lu Renbin recognized the brocaded robe. It was Han Li!
"Why aren't you running anymore?"
```
The subtle sound of wind arose as Han Li appeared ten meters away from Lu Renbin, staring at him with interest, causing Lu's scalp to tingle.
Lu Renbin inwardly groaned in distress but steeled himself and said, "This junior was merely passing by; may I ask what matter has led senior to block my way?"
Han Li looked at Lu Renbin with a smile that was not quite a smile, saying nothing.
Seeing this, Lu Renbin continued, "This junior hails from the Canghai Sect of Qing Province. If I have inadvertently disturbed senior, I am willing to make amends."
Knowing Han Li could not be easily deceived, Lu Renbin earnestly reported his sect, intending to intimidate with the reputation of his backing, hoping that Han Li would be somewhat wary. He indeed intended to compensate, to settle this matter quickly. Compared to a precious treasure, mere resources were trivial.
The Canghai Sect was one of the major sects in Qingzhou, well-known in Leizhou, Qingzhou, and Huozhou. It served as a decent protective charm, even though the Canghai Sect would rather flay him alive at the moment.
Han Li remained silent. He had naturally heard of the Canghai Sect, but since it was far away in Qingzhou, it did not intimidate him.
Just then, Lu Renbin made his move. His waist-long blade unsheathed, sending a meter-long blade aura slashing through the air towards Han Li.
Lu Renbin swung his blade in a frenzy, going all out, executing his strongest swordplay in hopes of catching Han Li off guard and grievously injuring him, or even killing him.
Since Han Li remained impervious, showing a determination to eradicate him, Lu Renbin had no choice but to strike first as a matter of survival; otherwise, he would surely die.
"Bang~Bang~Bang~"
Clashes echoed one after another, accompanied by resonating roars of dragons and tigers, deafening to the ears.
"How is this possible?"
Lu Renbin, seeing Han Li unscathed in the distance, was momentarily stunned, then without hesitation, he turned to flee for his life, even using a life-draining secret technique to boost his speed.
"The power is not bad, but it still cannot break through my protective divine skill," Han Li commented.
He had been on guard against Lu Renbin's sudden attack. The Dragon's Chant Golden Bell Shield and Tiger's Roar Iron Shirt were already in motion secretly, imbued with True Yuan, these two protective divine skills were not something a mere Pihai Realm could damage.
His clothes were not even slightly torn.
Over the years, he had obtained hundreds of cultivation techniques, martial skills, and secret methods. He understood many offensive and defensive skills, with the Golden Bell Shield and Iron Shirt among the most outstanding.
All thoughts vanished in an instant, and as he spoke, the Sun Chasing Bow materialized in his hand. He pulled it to full draw again, and an arrow made of True Yuan "whooshed" through the air.
Falling Star Arrow Manual third form: Celestial Falling Star!
Lu Renbin, who was hurriedly fleeing at the cost of his life, had already reached some ten-odd miles away. He was fast, but not as fast as the Celestial Falling Star.
In front of Lu Renbin, an arrow tore through the sky, carrying overwhelming power like a meteor falling from beyond the heavens, steadfastly locking onto Lu Renbin.
"No!!!!"
Lu Renbin immediately brought out a spiritual artifact shield to protect himself, and threw out all his spiritual artifacts in a desperate attempt to attack the meteor. His blade swung continuously, desperately using his sword technique, which even reached perfection in this mad state.
Unfortunately, all his resistance was in vain.
Boom!
A meteor struck, and a crater at least thirty feet wide appeared on the ground, scattered with fragments of spiritual artifacts. In the center of the crater lay a charred, mutilated corpse.
Han Li descended, frowning slightly at the sight.
Lu Renbin was dead, and his space ring had shattered too, its contents exposed, all shattered and extinguished.
Han Li felt a twinge of pain; after all, those were his spoils of war. This was the first time he used this move, powered by a substantial amount of True Yuan. He did not anticipate that Lu Renbin wouldn't survive even one arrow.
"Huh?"
With a flash, Han Li appeared in the crater, reaching under the destroyed body to retrieve an item.
If it had survived that arrow without destruction, it must be a treasure. Lu Renbin had buried it underneath himself before his death, not wanting Han Li to discover it.
After a careful examination, Han Li's pupils narrowed, a look of shock emerging on his handsome face.
