Li Na trounced Ekaterina Makarova in just under an hour to storm into a Melbourne quarter-final against Flavia Pennetta.
The former French Open champion faced four break points but her performance was far more assured than the second round when she had to battle back from match point down against Lucie Safarova.
Li, 31, was runner up in Melbourne in 2013 and 2011 and reached the semi-finals in 2010.
"At least she's one day older than me, so I'll play an older player," said Li, referring to Pennetta. "So nobody will talk about my age."
