Bachelor [EN]: Chapter 635

Puppet

White Dream and Hanryeo Sang-in’s expressions drastically changed when they saw Han Li summon the five white skeletons. Although they had never seen them directly, they immediately thought of the old demon when they heard the middle-aged man shout about the Five Heart Demons.

While Hanryeo Sang-in had no reason to fear them with his divine powers, it was difficult to launch a proper counterattack when the process of deploying his technique had not reached its peak.

In White Dream’s case, she was so surprised that she stopped the technique she was about to use, realizing that such an attack would not harm Han Li at all.

However, before the woman could catch her breath, Han Li formed a hand seal. His figure blurred, and four identical blue shadows appeared, splitting to both sides. Simultaneously, two each rushed towards White Dream and Hanryeo Sang-in.

Han Li stood in place, merely flicking his sleeves to retrieve the Sky Piercing Cauldron, and then held the tricolor feather fan in his hand. Immediately, he vigorously flapped the Wind Thunder Wings on his back, and he disappeared from his spot like silver lightning.

White Dream, who had already experienced the Wind Thunder Wings’ teleportation technique in the illusion, was terrified. She did not want the approaching blue shadows, whether they were Han Li who had just disappeared, his transformation, or illusions.

She flicked her snow-white fingertips.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

Four streaks of light flashed, piercing through the blue shadows. They were triangular-shaped treasures of unknown origin. Then, the woman’s figure blurred, and she stood next to Hanryeo Sang-in on the rock.

She formed a hand seal, creating a white flame, and then tried to create a snow-white iceberg to protect her and Hanryeo Sang-in. After that, she extended both hands alternately, releasing silver threads.

The threads, which appeared densely in the air, formed a circular net that wrapped around her. Like the middle-aged man, she decided to focus on defense rather than attacking the enemy.

Rather than facing Han Li alone, she planned to kill him by borrowing the power of the Mystic Ice Cave once Hanryeo Sang-in’s technique was complete.

The four streaks of light were so fast that they attacked the four blue shadows in an instant. Three of them were pierced through at once, but one drew a strange trajectory, avoiding the flashing light and flying towards Hanryeo Sang-in.

The blue shadow that revealed itself was unexpectedly an ordinary middle-aged man wearing a blue robe.

He emitted no energy, and his movements were so fast and unpredictable that he was able to evade the triangular attacks. He was a humanoid puppet created by Han Li, about to deliver the final blow to his opponent.

Although he did not know what kind of secret technique Hanryeo Sang-in was using, the white kirin [a mythical Chinese creature] illusion that had begun to condense in the air was ominous.

Even if all the cultivators in the cave attacked him with Han Li’s divine powers, he would not have to worry about losing his life, but he could not just leave it alone, not knowing what unexpected secret technique might unfold.

“……!”

White Dream was startled to find a humanoid puppet that looked exactly like a real person inside the iceberg. She did not know when the unfamiliar cultivator had appeared, so she hurriedly moved the four streaks of light around her.

At the same time, the flashing streaks of light changed direction and all rushed towards the back of the humanoid puppet. However, the humanoid puppet did not care about the flashing triangles and flipped one hand, taking out a red bow and firing an arrow at the iceberg.

Kuururung!

Numerous fire arrows densely covered the sky, and the surroundings became hazy with the intense heat. The magic treasure, the Lightning Fire Bow, which was comparable to a top-grade ancient treasure, revealed its power.

White Dream, inside the iceberg, narrowed her eyes and thought this was her chance. If she killed the unfamiliar cultivator using the treasure behind her, the attack he launched would naturally disappear!

She did not forget about Han Li, who had just disappeared using the Lightning Escape Technique, and was spreading her consciousness around to monitor within thirty feet. However, another surprising thing happened.

The four flashing streaks of light pierced the back of the unfamiliar cultivator, but suddenly a five-colored shield unfolded, and an explosion was heard.

The cultivator inside the five-colored shield only paused for a moment and was not harmed at all. The triangular-shaped magic treasure had fundamentally failed to penetrate the opponent’s shield.

While White Dream was surprised, the fire arrows that covered the sky fell on the iceberg.

Kwakwakwakwang!

Numerous flames collided with the iceberg, and steam surged, turning the surroundings into a sea of fire. The woman, hiding behind the iceberg as a shield, glared.

No matter how much the outside became a sea of fire, she was confident that the shield made of her cold flame would not be affected. As expected, even as the flames blazed and pushed in, a white light rose on the surface of the iceberg, and it did not break.

Just as White Dream was about to make a satisfied expression, a thunderous sound was heard from behind, and silver lightning flashed. Someone surrounded by purple flames all over his body fearlessly jumped into the iceberg.

The one who appeared behind the woman was Han Li, who had used the Lightning Escape Technique. He had drawn White Dream’s attention with the humanoid puppet and then moved himself.

As soon as Han Li appeared, White Dream, who had been thoroughly guarding her surroundings, did not even look back and grabbed the air. A giant hand, like a sparkling crystal, appeared outside the iceberg and tried to snatch him.

However, Han Li ignored the giant hand and flicked his sleeve, sending a golden sword flying. A golden streak of light flashed, and the giant hand split in two.

He emitted the purple flames all over his body several times more intensely and seeped into the iceberg. And after a couple of flashes of light, he had already passed through the iceberg’s barrier and arrived in front of White Dream and Hanryeo Sang-in.

Where he had passed, a large hole the size of a sheet of paper was clearly visible. The power of the Violet Extreme Flame, which had not even been refined yet, was far superior to White Dream’s cold flame.

Now, a circular silver net appeared before his eyes.

“Catch him!”

White Dream, who had turned her head to grasp the situation, was startled and shouted sharply. Even as the silver light spread greatly from the net and flew towards him, Han Li sneered.

The feather fan he was holding burst into three colors of light and grew to the length of a ship, then gently fanned towards the silver light mass.

Wharuk!

From the Three Flame Fan, three colors of flames burst out, and golden, silver, and red spells collided with the silver beads, becoming intricately intertwined.

However, the silver beads were also extraordinary, unexpectedly blocking the Three Flame Fan’s attack for a moment. Han Li slightly narrowed his brow, then quickly returned to normal.

This attack was only the first level of the Three Flame Fan’s power because he had conserved his magic power, so it was not a surprising result. He flipped one hand again and put the jade bottle he had prepared in advance to his mouth and tilted it.

After swallowing a drop of the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Elixir, there was no reason to be stingy with using magic power. As a large amount of magic power flowed in, the Three Flame Fan trembled and made a pleasant sound.

Then, three colored firebirds followed the pillars of fire and leisurely covered the silver light beads.

And Han Li activated the Wind Thunder Wings on his back and disappeared into the thunderous sound at the same time as the three-colored firebirds exploded. He reappeared thirty feet away.

When he looked up, the iceberg was rapidly melting in the three-colored light, and the silver beads inside had already disappeared the moment they exploded.

Even at that sight, Han Li did not show any joy and watched the situation.

This was because a blue ice dragon several feet long had appeared in place of the silver beads. The blue dragon, with sharp teeth and claws, still had its tail inside a small cauldron, indicating that it was a spirit beast released by the cauldron.

The blue cauldron floating gracefully in front of Hanryeo Sang-in was the Azure Wave Cauldron.

The ice dragon wrapped around White Dream and Hanryeo Sang-in, protecting them. Although most of the blue dragon’s body melted in the three-colored energy, the three-colored energy also lost its power and disappeared.

Surprisingly, it had survived the power of the Three Flame Fan without being injured.

“Is that the fire-attribute feather fan? It has the power of a replica of a Heaven Piercing Treasure. In fact, in terms of attack power, it is a treasure that is more than the Azure Wave Cauldron!”

Hanryeo Sang-in, who had been constantly forming hand seals, muttered calmly, then spat out blue flames from his mouth towards the blue dragon.

As the blue flames flowed over the dragon’s body, the lost flesh immediately recovered, and its turquoise eyes flashed fiercely. Han Li raised the corners of his mouth as he looked at the ice dragon, which seemed like a sneer or a mockery.

Before Hanryeo Sang-in could prepare for the ominous feeling, a blue shadow suddenly rushed in from the air. One hand, flashing with silver light, pierced Hanryeo Sang-in’s back like a sharp blade, and the other hand released a silver shield, wrapping White Dream in a silver curtain.

The humanoid puppet had quietly approached, using the fire arrows that covered the sky and Han Li’s attack as a shield.

White Dream only felt that her eyes were flashing with silver light, and then she was trapped in a silver curtain. Greatly alarmed, she quickly formed a hand seal, and white cold flames flowed from her body, turning into countless fist-sized beads that attacked the silver curtain.

Kuwang! Kwakwakwang!

The inside of the silver curtain became noisy. However, the silver curtain was very thick, and its surface was as smooth as glass, deflecting the attacks of the white fire beads.

Hanryeo Sang-in, who had reached the Transformation Stage, reacted much faster than White Dream. The moment the humanoid puppet appeared, he sensed something was wrong and released a golden armor.

The humanoid puppet’s lightning-fast attack came as soon as he put on the golden armor. However, the humanoid puppet had already pulled out all its power, so it was too late for Hanryeo Sang-in to summon the armor and deploy a technique to boost his energy.

As a result, with a dull thud, a silver, radiant palm struck Hanryeo Sang-in’s shoulder.

Silver and gold flashed madly.

The puppet was made of rare materials like Gang Eun [a type of metal], and its power was comparable to that of an ordinary flying sword magic treasure, but a gentle ripple appeared on the surface of the golden armor, and it bounced the palm away.

With this, Hanryeo Sang-in was relieved. Although he had not completed his technique, he had already moved about half of the Mystic Ice Energy of the Mystic Ice Cave and could kill his opponent.

However, the moment Hanryeo Sang-in moved his hand to form a hand seal, the humanoid puppet moved again, and its two arms turned into sharp silver hooks, grabbing both of his shoulders.

The golden armor was still not pierced, but Hanryeo Sang-in was unable to move. At the same time, a black blade flashed above his head and fell towards his crown at a very fast speed.

For Hanryeo Sang-in, who was held by the humanoid puppet, it was a terrifying situation. He abandoned the idea of using his magic power to cast a spell and hurriedly spat out blood.

The blood made from Hanryeo Sang-in’s essence contained enormous spiritual power, so even the Demon Slayer Flying Blade briefly collided with it and stopped. At that moment, Hanryeo Sang-in scattered the armor that was protecting him into light and was freed.

Now, the blue ice dragon, under his control, spewed a blue pillar of light towards Han Li. Hanryeo Sang-in believed that if he could just block Han Li’s attack for a moment, he could use the Mystic Ice Token to gather the cold energy in the cave and reverse the situation.

But then, a silver lotus the size of a ship appeared under Hanryeo Sang-in’s feet, emitting silver light, and the sound of chanting echoed softly.

“……!”

Hanryeo Sang-in could not move as if a pressure of ten million pounds had been poured on him, and most of the magic power in his body had also lost control. Naturally, the momentum of the blood that had been blocking the black blade was also greatly reduced.

Then, the Demon Slayer Flying Blade flashed, cut off the arrow that was spewing blood, and plunged down without hesitation.

Shortly after, Hanryeo Sang-in’s scream erupted.
