A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Immortal Realm-Chapter 1366: Reversal
Chapter 1366: Reversal
A flurry of radiant lightning flashed over the Azure Bamboo Cloudswarm Sword, and Han Li abruptly appeared beside it, even though he had been hundreds of thousands of kilometers away just an instant ago, and he grabbed onto the hilt of the sword before slashing it through the air without any hesitation.
Meng Yuan's head flew up into the air, decapitated from his body, while dark golden blood spurted out of his body.
Han Li caught the head, and a flurry of golden lightning erupted out his hand, forming a golden lightning cage around the decapitated head, while Dong Lihu and Zi Shan could only look on helplessly from afar.
Upon being decapitated, Meng Yuan's head had reverted back to its original appearance, as had his headless body, and it was revealed that there were four holes on his left arm and abdomen, corresponding with the locations of the injuries on Han Li's body.
"So your curse law powers allow you to wound your target by harming yourself. No wonder you hadn't dealt any fatal blows upon me up to this point," Han Li mused, and his injuries were already healing as he spoke.
"I only needed a bit more time to leave you completely helpless, but seeing as I've already lost, I have nothing to say," Meng Yuan said, and on the surface, he was looking quite calm and collected, but internally, he was very frustrated.
He had been so close, only for Dong Lihu to ruin everything at the last moment.
"Under normal circumstances, I would've spared you so that I could examine your unique law powers, but given that I have to deal with three other Dao Ancestors, I'll have to send you on your way," Han Li sneered.
He really was very curious about Meng Yuan's curse law powers, but leaving him alive was too much of a risk, one that he wasn't willing to take.
"Han Li, I curse you!" Meng Yuan roared as a furious look appeared on his face.
"Do whatever you please," Han Li replied in an indifferent manner.
......
While all of the devilish and primordial Dao Ancestors were confronting Chen Ruyan and Yin Ming, the Reincarnation Palace Master was still working to free himself.
Dark red light flashed urgently around his body as waves of fearsome reincarnation law powers crashed against the surrounding light barrier.
The four-colored light barrier shuddered violently, while Li Yuanjiu and the other Dao Ancestors were also beginning to display signs of strain.
Gu Huojin made a hand seal in an expressionless manner upon seeing this, and the golden palm projection swooped down once again before fusing into the four-colored light barrier.
A palm print rune appeared over the top of the light barrier in a flash, and an additional color was given to the four-colored light barrier, while its power and thickness both increased significantly.
The Reincarnation Palace Master had been trapped in what was known as a Thirty-Three Heavens Space Locking Array, an ability that had been passed down in the Heavenly Court since ancient times. In order to conjure up the array, multiple Dao Ancestors had to combine their law powers to form a restrictive space.
Furthermore, the more types of law powers that were incorporated, the more powerful the Thirty-Three Heavens Space Locking Array became. It was said that if thirty-three types of law powers could be assembled, then the resulting array would be capable of sealing the entire True Immortal Realm.
However, the more types of law powers that were incorporated, the more difficult the array became to set up. Gu Huojin had only passed down this array to some of the Dao Ancestors serving the Heavenly Court, and most of them were only able to conjure up a four-man Thirty-Three Heavens Space Locking Array.
The palm print rune on the light barrier was flashing incessantly while releasing waves of golden ripples that swept through the interior of the light barrier, and this time, the Reincarnation Palace Master was completely immobilized.
Despite this, Li Yuanjiu and the other Dao Ancestors were still frantically making hand seals to keep the array intact.
A Thirty-Three Heavens Space Locking Array that incorporated five types of law powers was already far beyond what they were capable of controlling.
Gu Huojin made a grabbing motion with his right hand once again, releasing a streak of golden light that vanished into the Reincarnation Palace Master's body before quickly reemerging with a silver talisman, which was delivered into his hand.
The talisman was riddled with complex silver patterns and was giving off extremely subtle spatial power fluctuations.
The Devilish Monarch's expression darkened slightly upon seeing this.
"A spatial location talisman. No wonder Shi Kongyu was able to bypass all of the restrictions of my Heavenly Court to open up spatial passageways here. This is why you came to attend the Bodhi Banquet, right? Unfortunately, you overestimated your own abilities. You should've never come to my Heavenly Court on your own," Gu Huojin said in an indifferent manner.
Subjugated within the five-colored light barrier, the Reincarnation Palace Master was unable to respond.
"Take him away and seal him," Gu Huojin instructed as he crushed the silver talisman in his hand, and Li Yuanjiu and the others gave a collective, affirmative response before flying away with the five-colored light barrier.
The banquet attendees erupted into excited cheers upon seeing this. It was no exaggeration to say that the Reincarnation Palace Master was the Heavenly Court's nemesis, and he had finally been captured.
With his capture, the Reincarnation Palace was no longer a cause for concern, and it also served as a massive hit in morale for the devilish and primordial armies.
Indeed, he should've never come here on his own, even if his purpose was to carry that spatial location talismans into the Jade Pond Paradise. Looks like the legends of his unmatched power and wisdom were severely exaggerated, True Lord Cang Wu thought to himself.
Now that the Reincarnation Palace Master had been captured, the Heavenly Court had clearly gained the upper hand, so perhaps it was time to pick a side.
With that in mind, many of the banquet attendees were beginning to turn their eyes toward the Heavenly Court's Dao Ancestors, including True Lord Cang Wu's trio.
This shift in attitude naturally didn't escape Gu Huojin's attention, and a faint smile appeared on his face, yet right as he was about to say something, two resounding thumps rang out, immediately followed by two agonized cries as a burst of tremendous power swept through the air.
Gu Huojin immediately swung around to discover that a massive, black claw the size of a house was grabbing down upon him, and its five scythe-like tips seemed to be capable of tearing through anything that came into its path.
The giant claw was giving off an incredibly evil aura, as if it had been stewing in resentment for countless years in the depths of hell, and behind the massive claw was the Reincarnation Palace Master, who had somehow managed to free himself.
Behind him, Dao Ancestor Bai Yun and the red-faced elderly man had both had their bodies split into two and were laying in puddles of their own blood. They weren't dead, but they weren't going to be able to move anytime soon.

As for Li Yuanjiu and Chi Rong, those two were nowhere to be seen.
Gu Huojin's brows furrowed slightly as he swept a sleeve through the air.
His robe was clearly also an immortal treasure, and its sleeve swelled drastically in size before forming a golden light barrier.
The golden light barrier shuddered violently, and the black claw was able to pierce almost halfway through it, but was ultimately stopped in its tracks.
Right at this moment, a blazing fireball shot out of the space behind Gu Huojin before crashing into his back.
Within the fireball was an array that was formed by countless crimson lines, an it was giving off incredibly fearsome heat, melting through the nearby space with ease.
The entire surrounding area was illuminated a crimson color, and the Jade Pond Paradise was instantly transformed into a sea of fire.
Chi Rong emerged from behind the crimson fireball, and at the same time, countless strands of golden light appeared around Gu Huojin, all of which were imbued with astonishing metal law powers.
The nearby flames were sliced to shreds, as was the unbearable heat in the air, providing everyone present with some temporary relief.
All of the strands of golden light were piercing toward Gu Huojin, and they had been released by none other than Li Yuanjiu.
Gu Huojin's expression darkened slightly upon seeing this, he was inundated by the crimson flames and strands of golden light before he had a chance to react.
"Supreme Lord!" the debilitated Dao Ancestor Bai Yun and red-faced elderly man exclaimed in unison.
The Dao Ancestors confronting the devilish and primordial armies were also stunned by this abrupt turn of events, but everything had unfolded too quickly for them to be able to do anything.
What's going on? Li Yuanjiu and Chi Rong have defected to the Reincarnation Palace?!
All of the banquet attendees were struggling to believe their own eyes.
Right at this moment, all of the crimson flames and strands of golden light around Gu Huojin suddenly fell completely still, presenting a bizarre sight to behold.
The Reincarnation Palace Master's expression changed slightly upon seeing this, and he hurriedly drifted back in retreat, while Li Yuanjiu and Chi Rong also did the same, and it seemed that the three of them were trying to avoid something.
In the next instant, a layer of blue light suddenly appeared in the sky, following which a burst of vast glacial law powers descended from the heavens, instantly transforming the scorching hot environment into one that was teeth-chattering cold.
The Reincarnation Palace Master, Li Yuanjiu, and Chi Rong were momentarily stopped in their tracks as this blanket of glacial law powers descended upon them.
Meanwhile, the white-robed man that had been opposing the primordial Dao Ancestors with Chen Ruyan suddenly appeared in the sky, and with a sweep of his sleeve, countless blue ice spikes took shape before raining down upon the trio below.
Every single ice spike was imbued with immense glacial law powers, and they were freezing the very space around them.
At the same time, hundreds of streaks of light of different colors were sent hurtling toward the trio alongside the barrage of ice spikes. As it turned out, the near one hundred Great Encompassment cultivators serving the Heavenly Court had finally seized an opportunity to attack.
The collective might of close to one hundred Great Encompassment cultivators was nothing to be scoffed at, and the Reincarnation Palace Master chose not to fight fire with fire as he vanished from the spot before reappearing in the air above the devilish army.
At the same time, Li Yuanjiu and Chi Rong also flew over to join him.
