Chapter 559: Strange Mistaken Identity
Feng Xi also caught sight of Han Li in the teleportation formation and immediately changed expression.
Although he had some suspicion about Han Li deliberately fleeing to the small island to seek death, he never expected there to be a teleportation formation here. Watching Han Li, with a mixture of spell formation and a mouthful of essence blood, recklessly expending his true essence to instantly activate the teleportation formation, a loud humming sound arose.
“No!”
He shouted in anger and shock, and without hesitation opened his mouth. A misty azure light orb shot straight at one corner of the teleportation formation.
As long as he destroyed the formation, Han Li would naturally be his captive.
At the same time as launching the attack, the demonic cultivator’s figure flickered, his face twisted into a ferocious snarl as he whirled toward the teleportation formation like a whirlwind.
He intended to interrupt Han Li’s teleportation.
However, his movement was clearly a bit too late.
Aside from flicking out more than ten sword energies to temporarily delay the approach of that azure light orb, Han Li showed no intention of dodging the ferociously pouncing riftwind beast.
Because the magic formation had already emitted a milky white light, instantly enveloping Han Li within it.
By the time Feng Xi, like a gale, rushed to the edge of the formation, Han Li had already become a blur in the light before disappearing without a trace.
Left behind in the hall was the riftwind beast, leaping up in furious rage.
It had no idea where the formation led, and without a teleportation talisman on hand, naturally did not dare to rush in after him.
At that moment, Miaohen, riding white cranes, shot through the broken roof and entered, only to see the dimming white light of the formation, her face filled with shock and frustration.
But at that moment, Feng Xi suddenly turned and fixed his bloodshot eyes on the Taoist, a cold murderous intent flashing briefly across his face.
“All these humans here must die!”
The riftwind beast was furious that Han Li had escaped from its grasp, and seeing Miaohen rushing in, it immediately vented all its rage and violence on her.
Then the demonic cultivator’s entire body shone with azure light, instantly transforming into an azure rainbow, fiercely lunging toward Miaohen.
Seeing this, Miaohen’s expression changed; without hesitation, she simultaneously deployed her ancient mirror and jade hammer.
Various colored lights intertwined in the air...

More than a month later, rumors spread among the human cultivators in the nearby sea region.
Miaohen, a nascent soul stage cultivator, had been badly injured by a ninth-level demonic beast, her physical body shattered. She had used all her skill to barely escape with her nascent soul back to her secluded mansion.
For a time, humans were once again terrified by the ferocity of the demonic beasts.
What they never expected was that this was only the beginning.
Within just a few months, the flood dragon clan from the Abyss suddenly dispatched a large number of high-ranking members, flying out of the deep sea, raiding and hunting core formation stage and above cultivators among humans.
Although this lasted only a few years, the casualties among advanced-stage cultivators were even comparable to the losses during the beast tide battles.
Among these, two other old nascent soul stage cultivators were also besieged by several eighth and ninth-level flood dragons and suffered heavy injuries.
This caused the cultivators in the nearby sea area to be terrified at the mention of flood dragons, and no one dared to move about lightly.
This situation lasted for more than a decade before gradually returning to normal.
However, what puzzled some cultivators who miraculously escaped the beasts was that these demonic beasts would always inquire before attacking whether there was a core formation stage cultivator named Li among them. If no answer was given, they would attack without mercy.
