Chapter 546: Wind and Thunder Union
Although Han Li had long anticipated that the treasure refining process would not be short, five months later, the three demonic cultivators had done nothing more than toss some strange materials into the alchemy flame, sitting cross-legged without moving an inch.
This left Han Li somewhat stunned.
During this time, the three demons, except for stopping three or four times to slightly restore their magical power, had let the demonic beast cores hover in mid-air, continuously spraying alchemy flame, all while appearing extremely composed.
Truly befitting of eighth or ninth-level demonic beasts—their magical power was indeed unfathomable.
Because Han Li was continuously refining his qi, his magical power remained fully charged. The light shield absorbing a bit of his spiritual power was nothing significant.
He watched as the bone wings within the alchemy flame grew increasingly translucent and clear, faint sounds of thunder and wind howling emanating from them.
The joy in Feng Xi’s eyes also became more apparent.
Han Li knew in his heart that the Wind Thunder Wings were nearing completion.
During these months, Han Li was relieved that the evil qi inside his body had not appeared once. There wasn’t even the slightest sign of its presence.
This puzzled Han Li a bit.
However, after some reflection, he suspected it might be related to the evil-repelling divine thunder contained within the magical treasure inside his body. After all, this divine thunder inherently had the effect of dispelling demons and evil.
Could it be that the evil qi had already been automatically cleansed by the divine thunder?
Thinking this, Han Li naturally felt pleased.
In truth, even if the evil qi did appear, he planned to use this divine thunder to eliminate it.
If that still didn’t work, he would risk shrinking the golddevourer worm and swallowing it into his abdomen, forcibly devouring the evil qi as well.
Therefore, the riftwind beast’s coercion tactics were not something Han Li feared at all; he hadn’t taken it seriously from the beginning.
He thought that this old demon could never have guessed that although his cultivation base was not high, the supreme treasures and spiritual entities he carried were terrifyingly abundant.
With no worries about future troubles, Han Li certainly would not just sit and wait to die.
He had already run through several planned escape strategies in his mind multiple times, preparing to adapt on the spot depending on the situation.
Sure enough, after another month passed, the riftwind beast that had been sitting cross-legged with closed eyes seemed to think the refining was almost complete and made his next move.
He opened his eyes, focused intently on the nearly completed bone wings in mid-air, and took a deep breath.
Suddenly, he sent over a dozen spell formations toward the air; the alchemy flame instantly extinguished, revealing three demonic beast cores and two bone wings.
The cores’ luster was slightly dimmer compared to before, a result of the three demons continuously spraying alchemy flame for months, depleting some vital energy.
However, the two bone wings were the opposite: not only were their shapes slender and intact, but they also emitted a dazzling mix of milky white and silver light, extremely eye-catching.
Without hesitation, Feng Xi flicked a finger at his demonic beast core, causing it to spin rapidly before shooting back through the air, retrieved into his abdomen.
Upon seeing this, the poisonous flood dragon and turtle demon exchanged a glance and similarly retracted the other two cores by the same method.
Without a word, the three demons immediately closed their eyes to cultivate and rest.
After several days of rest, Feng Xi and the others restored their magical power and replenished their vital energy.
At this moment, the level 9 riftwind beast finally turned to look at Han Li, then swiftly sent a spell formation toward the light shield imprisoning Han Li.
A red glow pierced the shield, flashing wildly a few times before the entire shield dispersed on its own.
