Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

Chapter 498 Absorbing Starlight

Anu's eyes became empty and lifeless, as if her soul was suddenly pulled out of her body at this moment, and she completely lost the perception and reaction to the surrounding environment.

Her body seemed to be frozen, motionless. Even the stars behind her that were originally flickering with faint light seemed to be frozen in time and stood still.

Li Zhi's eyes flickered. He naturally knew that with his current attainments in the Qi Transformation Realm, it would be as difficult as climbing to the sky to cover the entire meteorite forest.

Moreover, the larger the boundary expands, the weaker its solidity will be, and the easier it will be to be broken.

Therefore, Li Zhi had no intention of relying on the boundary to cut off the connection between Anu and the Meteorite Forest from the beginning.

His real purpose was to use the special ability of the hundred-eyed insect that could influence the minds of others, and to use the effect amplified by the realm to interfere with Anu's mind.

Although the ability of the hundred-eyed insect to influence the minds of others has certain limitations, it may be difficult to work on people who practice Taoism or monsters with higher levels of Taoism.

However, the realm of Qi that Li Zhi carefully evolved can temporarily enhance the ability of the hundred-eyed insect to a certain extent.

It was precisely because of this that Li Zhi was able to influence Anu in an instant, causing her to lose her mind in a split second.

Li Zhi's narrowed eyes suddenly opened, he saw the flaw when Anu lost his mind, crushed the rotten leaves on the ground with his toes, and poured the Qi in his body into the ground like a mad dragon entering the sea.

In an instant, the earth made a dull roar, and the humus layer surged like boiling mud. A giant rock and earth hand wrapped in gravel and dead wood broke out of the ground, with sticky mud dripping from its rough knuckles, and smashed down on Anu's head with a force of ten thousand pounds.

However, just as the giant hand was about to fall, the starlight behind Anu, which had been stagnant, seemed to sense the danger to its master.

It unexpectedly burst out with extremely dazzling brilliance on its own.

Countless tiny star rays weave into a dazzling web of light in the void.

The giant rock and soil hand slammed into the light net with a loud bang, causing a sound like a landslide and the soil to pour down like a rainstorm, but the light net was as solid as a rock, without even a ripple.

The light woven from star rays hummed in the air.

The next moment, the light net suddenly turned into thousands of meteors, sweeping towards Li Zhi like a dense rain of arrows.

These meteors seemed light, but they left scarlet burn marks as they streaked through the air. Wherever they passed, towering ancient trees were instantly reduced to dust, and winding deep grooves were burned on the ground.

Li Zhi felt a piercing chill running up his spine to the back of his neck, and his hair stood on end.

Without giving it time to think, he immediately retreated to the Huaqi Realm.

Immediately afterwards, the Five Elements and Five Armors techniques were displayed in an instant.

The art of the five elements and five armors - fire and earth armor!

Light surged from Li Zhi's body, and a suit of armor with brown and fiery red flowing lines appeared on his body.

But when the first wave of falling starlight hit the fire and earth armor, Li Zhi trembled all over and he couldn't help but groan.

The seemingly soft starlight was like a heavy hammer that shook his internal organs, and the surface of his fire and earth armor was instantly covered with spider-web-like cracks.

Li Zhi showed a look of shock. His fire and earth armor had always been an important means of defense for him. It had never happened before that cracks appeared after just one wave of attacks.

Moreover, Li Zhi could sense that the Fire and Earth Armor was in an extremely unstable state at the moment, and it seemed that it might collapse at any time.

The cracks on the surface of the fire and earth armor spread like glaciers on a winter night. Blood beads seeping from under the brown armor fell with Li Zhi's rapid breathing.

Li Zhi felt that he could even hear the wailing sound coming from inside the armor as if it was about to break.

The Qi circulating in the body, when it falls on the armor, is like ice thrown into a volcano, and it is about to be consumed with a sizzling sound.

Li Zhi's teeth were almost broken by gritting his teeth, and his face was full of ferocity. He knew that once the fire and earth armor was broken, it would not be so easy for him to withstand the starry sky.

Li Zhi took a deep breath, and his heart fire and spleen earth worked to their limit in an instant, but it only resulted in a dull sound.

The next moment, the fire and earth armor that had protected Li Zhi from various attacks exploded like a glass cup hit by a heavy hammer.

The exploded fire and earth armor turned into points of light and disappeared into the air, while Li Zhi was blown into the air by the air wave. He was able to stop only after crashing into a dead tree as thick as a bowl and breaking it.

Bright red blood spurted from Li Zhi's mouth and nose, and he struggled to stand up. Looking up, he saw the starry sky chasing him like a maggot, burning the rotten leaves to ashes like falling fire, weaving a burning net around him.

Li Zhi did not dare to be careless at all, and was just about to use other means to deal with the streaking fire.

He suddenly felt a tearing pain in his left eye, the kind of pain that felt like his skull was being split open, as if a burning sharp blade was piercing through his eye socket, stirring up a sky full of stars in his brain.

Immediately afterwards, a strong suction force erupted from the depths of Li Zhi's left eye, swallowing up all the starlight like a black hole. The flowing fire above his head suddenly turned when it touched the ends of his hair, and rushed into his left eye madly against gravity.

What was strange was that the surrounding grass, soil and even the splattered blood were still like sculptures, only the bright starlight was like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea, rushing madly into the pupil of his left eye.

At this moment, Li Zhi felt as if his left eye was forcibly stretched open by a powerful force, and countless star rays poured into his eyes like a tide.

These star rays, with their extreme brightness, struck his left eye with astonishing speed and intensity.

This feeling caused Li Zhi's left eye to feel an immense swelling and stinging pain, as if countless fine needles were constantly pricking his eyeball. His left eye felt like it was about to burst, and the pain was unbearable.

But he had no control over the situation.

It was not until Li Zhi absorbed all the stars in the sky into his left eye that the powerful suction force that he had originally been unable to control slowly faded from his left eye like the receding tide.

Li Zhi's body seemed to have been drained of all its strength, and he half-knelt on the ground, his left hand tightly covering his left eye, as if he was enduring great pain there.

His breathing was rapid and heavy, and his chest rose and fell violently like a bellows.

At the same time, Anu, who had already woken up from her confused state, felt a fishy and sweet taste rising up her throat. She could no longer hold it back and suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood.

Blood splattered on the ground, forming a shocking pool of dark red.

Anu's face instantly turned as pale as paper, completely bloodless. Her originally beautiful face was now distorted beyond recognition by the pain.

An indescribable fear and despair surged in her heart. Anu did not expect that the star gate spell she had practiced for many years - Galaxy, was completely absorbed by Li Zhi!

This sudden change caught Anu off guard, leaving her with no time to react. The pain from the backlash of this spell was several times more intense than the backlash from Li Zhi's fire-earth armor being broken!

Her body was shaky and she looked like she would fall down at any moment.

At this moment, Anu caught a glimpse of Li Zhi's five little devils running towards her at an alarming speed. Her heart tightened, knowing that she no longer had the strength to fight.

So, she endured the severe pain in her body and tried her best to activate the earth escape technique in her body.

With a light shout from her, her body sank into the ground quickly like a ghost and disappeared without a trace.
