Inside the secret room, the room was filled with golden light.
Han Li didn't sit cross-legged. Instead, he stood next to the praying mat nervously.
Behind him, the Mantra Treasure Wheel was spinning rapidly. The golden vertical eye that was suspended in it suddenly opened and shot a golden light in front of him.
Now that he found out that the time dao pattern on the treasure wheel could be restored, he naturally thought of the big-eared monk that he saw in the wall of light that day.
Although his thieving action seemed to have been discovered by the monk, no matter how powerful the monk was, he shouldn't be able to find trouble with him directly through this image.
When Han Li thought of this, he took a deep breath. He took out the dark green bottle that was hidden in front of his chest and placed it in the golden light.
As a result, as soon as the dark green bottle touched the golden light, it immediately flew up by itself and bloomed with dazzling green light in mid-air. A formless force immediately surged out from it.
This time, Han Li was already prepared. He crossed his hands in front of his body to block. His body retreated a few meters back and stopped.
On the Mantra Treasure Wheel behind him, the 108 balls of time dao pattern shone brightly. They flew out from behind him again and hung opposite the Sky Bottle. They were as bright as the sun.
After a while, golden light shot out from the Eye of Truth. A green beam of light surged out from the dark green bottle and tore a hole in the void.
A burst of translucent light flowed out of thin air, and a translucent wall of light quickly appeared within the secret chamber before Han Li's eyes.
The scene in the light wall was very blurry, and there was no sound at all. However, Han Li was mentally prepared before, so he naturally wasn't worried. He quietly waited for the time dao pattern on the Mantra Treasure Wheel to dim one after another.
Looking at the scene that was getting clearer and clearer, Han Li's breathing unconsciously became a little faster.
However, after a few breaths, Han Li's gaze on the light wall suddenly became a little dazed.
Because this time, the content that appeared in the light wall was very different.
Red light surged as far as the eye could see, and what appeared was a world filled with huge volcanoes.
In the sky above, dark clouds that were as dark as ink pressed down on half of the sky. Within the clouds, there was a faint blood-red light flashing. Below the clouds, there were volcanoes that were tens of thousands of feet tall. They were erupting, and thick black smoke billowed from the craters of the volcanoes, almost touching the clouds.
Scorching scarlet magma gushed out of the mouth of the mountain, converging into rivers of magma that were more than a thousand feet wide. They flowed down from all directions and converged at the foot of the mountain, condensing into a huge magma lake.
A loud rumbling sound came from within the wall of light, and the entire ground was violently heaving up and down. Huge ravines that were thousands of meters long spread out like a spider web, constantly expanding and splitting the earth into pieces.
Countless red beasts that looked like earthworms but were extremely thick were overturned by the collapsing ground. They dug the soil crazily, trying to crawl back into the ground.
Their bodies were tightly entangled and intertwined with each other. All of them shook crazily, but they were constantly squeezed by the collapsing rocks and broke into countless pieces.
These beasts seemed to have extremely strong vitality. Even if their bodies were broken, they still struggled tenaciously and drilled into the soil.
However, the rivers of magma that had spread across the earth had already flowed back into the cracked cracks, drowning all these beasts and burning them to ashes.
Han Li stood on the spot, looking at the scene of the end of the wild world. He was shocked, and his tightly clenched fists were unknowingly covered in sweat.
Right at this moment, a muffled bang sounded out abruptly, and then another Time Dao Marking on the Wheel of Truth suddenly jumped before swiftly dimming down and transforming into a dark grey color.
At this moment, more than half of the Dao patterns had already become dim and lightless.
Han Li immediately came back to his senses and remembered the purpose of opening the light wall.
However, the world that appeared in the light wall this time was completely different from before, and it caught him off guard.
"If that's the case … I might as well give it a try …"
As Han Li thought so, he raised his hand and patted the spiritual beast bag on his waist. A green light flashed under his palm, and a Split Kiss Demon Wolf with bloody saliva dripping from its mouth appeared out of thin air.
As soon as this beast appeared, its body immediately flashed with green light, and it was about to escape.
Han Li stretched out his hand, grabbed a clump of flesh above its neck, and lightly threw it towards the light wall.
The Demon Wolf twisted its waist wildly, but it still couldn't help but hit the light wall. As the light flashed, it seemed to pass through an invisible barrier and fell towards the collapsing ground.
As soon as it landed, it immediately turned around and crouched down. It bared its teeth and growled at Han Li.
"It really works …"
Seeing this, Han Li was delighted. This light wall could really be passed through.
However, in the next moment, he found that the fur of the Split Kiss Demon Wolf began to turn from green and black to gray, and the light in its eyes faded quickly.
Judging from the lifespan of the Demon Wolf, it seemed to have aged nearly a thousand years in a few breaths.
Then, the skin and flesh of the Demon Wolf completely decayed, revealing a complete white skeleton. Then, it turned into ashes and disappeared without a trace with a gust of wind.
"Poof" sounded again, and another group of time dao pattern on the Wheel of Truth dimmed.
Han Li didn't look at the Wheel of Truth this time, but looked at the place where the Demon Wolf's body disappeared and pondered.
After a while, he shook his wrist, and a green and red Water Fire Mirror the size of a palm appeared in his palm.
This mirror's grade wasn't high; it was just a low-level magic tool. It could release water waves and flames, but its attack power was low. Even he himself couldn't remember when he got it, but he had never sold it.
He raised his palm and gently threw it. The Water Fire Mirror flew in an arc and fell on the light wall.
Like the Demon Wolf, the Water Fire Mirror wasn't hindered in the slightest. The moment it touched the light wall, it flashed and passed through to the other side of the light wall.
Han Li's eyes focused, and his eyes lit up with blue light. The Bright Light Spirit Eyes were also activated.
He wanted to see clearly what happened after passing through the light wall.
As soon as the Water Fire Mirror reached the other side of the world, before it landed on the ground, its surface suddenly shone with green and red light, as if someone was urging it to gush out waves and spew out flames.
However, in the next moment, there was a soft "bang" sound. The light on the Water Fire Mirror flashed violently, and it directly exploded.
But what surprised Han Li was that the exploded Water Fire Mirror didn't turn into debris. Instead, it turned into a cloud of colorful smoke that rose from the place where it exploded. Then, it quickly shrank together and condensed into a dozen kinds of ore materials of different colors, falling to the ground.
These materials weren't unfamiliar to Han Li. Among them, there were two kinds that were the most numerous. One was the fiery red Fire Spirit Stone, and the other was the cyan Primordial Water Stone.
These two kinds of ores were the main materials to refine the Water Fire Mirror, and the other kinds of materials were also some auxiliary materials to refine this treasure.
"It has actually been restored to the original spiritual materials …" Han Li's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed with some surprise.
As soon as his voice fell, the various kinds of ores and spiritual materials that had been decomposed quickly became transparent and illusory in the air, and finally disappeared completely.
At the same time, on the Wheel of Truth, almost half of the Dao patterns had become dim.
Then, he tried to throw the Spirit Stones, and even Immortal Meta Stones and other things to the other side of the light wall, but he only saw that after the Spirit Stones and other things fell to the ground, they quickly merged with the ground, and then their spiritual power was completely lost, completely assimilated with the earth, and finally disappeared.
As time passed, the Dao patterns on the Wheel of Truth, the speed of dimming seemed to become faster and faster, and there were constant "puff puff" sounds.
Han Li frowned as he looked at the light wall in front of him and the doomsday world behind it. Suddenly, his palm turned over, and he took out a cyan long sword and held it in his hand.
He took a step back slightly, and the long sword in his hand suddenly lifted up and slashed at the light wall.
There was only a roaring sound like a dragon, and a clear sword light like autumn water lit up on the cyan long sword. It burst out from the sword and swept straight at the light wall.
After waving the sword, Han Li did not stop, but bent his knees slightly, with one hand holding the sword horizontally in front of him, making a blocking posture. He made a gesture with the other hand, and there was a faint golden lightning at the tip of his fingers, closely guarding against any possible changes.
"Hoo …"
There was a sound like a breeze blowing, and the sword light fell on the light wall.
The wall of light did not shatter and the sword light shot out in all directions as he had imagined, nor did the space shatter after the wall of light collapsed. There was only a slight sound of wind and a slight ripple on the surface of the wall of light. Then, the sword light instantly disappeared.
In contrast, there was a series of intensive sounds on the Wheel of Truth.
The moment the surface of the light wall returned to calm, the last group of Dao patterns on the golden wheel above Han Li's head dimmed again.
A colorful light shone from the wall of light, making a "bang" sound.
The entire wall of light collapsed, turning into specks of crystal light that dissipated, and the spatial crack also closed up.
Without the illumination of the time dao pattern, the Truth Treasure Wheel also became a little dimmer. It slowly flew back into Han Li's body and disappeared.
Meanwhile, the Sky Bottle that was hovering in mid-air quickly shrank back to its original size as it spun in the air before descending to the ground.
Han Li raised his hand to catch it, tied it properly, and hung it back around his neck, hiding it in his robe.
The entire secret chamber regained its peace.
Han Li sat down cross-legged, took out a glistening yellow pill, swallowed it, and closed his eyes to adjust his breathing.
Maintaining the Wheel of Truth and the Eye of Truth had indeed consumed a large amount of Celestial Spiritual Energy, causing his body to feel slightly empty. However, compared to his sorry state last time, it was naturally a hundred times better.
After a long while, Han Li slowly opened his eyes, smiled bitterly, and comforted himself,
"It seems that obtaining benefits from the light wall like last time was ultimately a matter of luck. However, there might not be a second time.
Forget it, I'll continue to collect elixirs and continue to improve my cultivation while restoring the Dao patterns. "
After saying that, he stood up, left the secret chamber, and headed out of the cave mansion.
