Chapter 64: Arson



Bang!

The crashes continued one after another.

During this time, Lu Zhengzhi thought of various methods, such as using a flying sword to penetrate the connection point of the mechanism, using large rocks from the cliff to fall, and changing the land to form a large pit.

But it's no use.

This Xiezhi is like the big devil dung monster in the restricted area, with high attack, thick blood and defense against everything.

"Brother, if this doesn't work, let's retreat. I'm almost vomiting from struggling with this bronze beast."

Lu Zhengyuan had a sad face and looked miserable.

After all, Lu Zhengzhi only had to run, while he was held under Lu Zhengzhi's armpits like a claw machine. His stomach was about to vomit from every bump in his running.

Lu Zhengzhi glanced at Lu Zhengyuan, then looked at the exit of the sparse forest not far away, his eyes hesitant.

The forest here was sparse, obviously not the naturally growing dense forest beside the river when they first came out of the river.

The only explanation is that it was planted intentionally by Cangshan Zhenren.

As the trial site for the [Bronze Xiezhi].

To pass through the secret realm, sometimes the condition to be achieved is to pass all the trials.

The exit of this dense forest is so obvious that it is simply a provocation.

"Of course you can leave. After all, I, Cangshan Zhenren, am not some murderous demon. I won't take the lives of you trial-takers~ But, do you really want to escape in such disgrace? Carrying the name of a loser, forever losing the qualification to pass the trial? Haha, what a loser~"

For some reason, a taunting scene appeared so blatantly in Lu Zhengzhi's mind.

He shook it vigorously and said through gritted teeth, "You get out first, I'll try again!"

Lu Zhengyuan's eyes changed from shock to loss, and finally gradually became firm.

"If you don't leave, I won't leave either!"

"When we brothers unite, we can break any obstacle!"

Lu Zhengzhi held Lu Zhengyuan with one arm and said, "Let's dodge this wave first!"

Lu Zhengyuan's face looked bitter, but he also knew that with his speed, he would be smashed into a pulp by the bronze Xiezhi if he was not careful, so he did not dare to refuse.

But this time he stared at the other person intently, trying to find some clues.

Boom!

The bronze Xiezhi crashed into the mountain wall of the nearby valley again, knocking away the rocks.

At the same time, some bronze parts were knocked out from the gaps around it.

It looks like it should be...a bug?

Lu Zhengyuan widened his eyes.

Those bugs were very small, and after being knocked out, they were immediately buried in the dust and were completely inconspicuous.

"Brother! Move to the place where the bronze Xiezhi hit the mountain wall just now. I have something to confirm!" Lu Zhengyuan shouted.

Although Lu Zhengzhi was puzzled, he still followed his instructions and moved to the side of a mountain wall.

Just now, the Xiezhi crashed into the mountain wall and created a huge hole.

After Lu Zhengyuan was put down on the ground, he began to search on the ground.

He was picking up dust and gravel from the ground like a child playing with dirt, but Lu Zhengyuan didn't care. He knelt on the ground and swept the ground with his hands.

Lu Zhengzhi was a little confused when he saw this scene, but his mind was always fixed on the Xiezhi opposite. Seeing that the other party was ready and was about to charge towards them, he took Lu Zhengyuan away.

"elder brother!"

Lu Zhengyuan suddenly raised his right hand, pinching a small crawling insect between his fingers.

Lu Zhengzhi looked at the bug, his eyes narrowed slightly, "Is this... a bronze bug?"

Lu Zhengyuan nodded. "It's because of the Xiezhi hitting the stone wall every time. I guess—"

Before he could finish his words, Lu Zhengzhi grabbed him and jumped up, avoiding the attack of the bronze Xiezhi.

While leaping into the air, a wall of fire unfolded downwards!

"Flame Six Combinations Record!"

Lu Zhengyuan shouted excitedly.

He saw clearly that as the flames continued on the Xiezhi's body for a few breaths, several bronze insects emerged from the cracks in the Xiezhi's body.

"Brother! You are so strong. You guessed it before I finished speaking!" Lu Zhengyuan looked at Lu Zhengzhi with admiration.

Lu Zhengzhi raised his eyebrows and curled the corners of his mouth slightly.

Who doesn't like the feeling of being admired?

But it's not over yet.

The bronze Xiezhi stood up, shook off the bronze bugs crawling on its body, and threw away the bronze bugs that tried to crawl into the gap again.

Then he rubbed his hooves against the ground, intending to charge at the two again.

"What's going on? Aren't we already helping it drive away the bugs?" Lu Zhengyuan's face changed drastically. "Why is it still rushing towards us?"

Lu Zhengzhi picked up Lu Zhengyuan, his eyes sharp, "Because we haven't done enough."

Leaping into the air to avoid the impact, Lu Zhengzhi once again used the Flame Six-Combination Record, and a huge wall of fire rushed towards the ground.

The target was not the bronze Xiezhi, but the trees scattered on the ground.

Lu Zhengyuan's eyes widened, "What are you going to do?"

Lu Zhengzhi's eyes were sharp, "Set fire, burn the forest!"

"This forest was planted so that we can set it on fire and remove the bronze parasites from the Xiezhi!"

"The Xiezhi is an ancient mythical beast with eyes wide open and furious. It can distinguish right from wrong, good from evil, loyalty from treachery. When it spots a treacherous person, it knocks him down with its horns and then devours him. Its ability to distinguish right from wrong symbolizes bravery and justice."

"Our Lu family acts in an upright manner. Our ancestral precepts include doing good deeds and accumulating virtue. The good deeds of our ancestors are enough to protect you and me. Besides, we are not bad people."

"The reason Xiezhi attacked us is because it had too many bronze parasites on its body, driving it mad. There is no other reason."

"So, set fire to the forest and let Xiezhi burn to his heart's content in the trial grounds he can't leave. This will burn off the parasites on his body, and he will regain his sanity and be able to distinguish between good and evil again!"

Lu Zhengzhi and Lu Zhengyuan set fires everywhere in the woods, and finally hid at the exit of the trial, watching the raging fire cover the entire trial site.

The bronze Xiezhi statue finally found peace, stopped in the center, and quietly felt the baptism of fire.

"Yin!"

Perhaps because it felt that ordinary fire was too slow, the divine beast played a song, absorbed all the flames, and transformed into a flaming black bird, spewing black bird fire all over its body.

Lu Zhengzhi handed a Suzaku Mingling Pill to Lu Zhengyuan, "Swallow it. It will temporarily enhance your spiritual understanding. Remember this scene. When you are about to build your foundation in the future, this black bird will be your spiritual embryo for visualization."

"At least, mid-level Xuan-level." Lu Zhengzhi added.

Lu Zhengyuan's eyes lit up and he quickly swallowed the Suzaku Mingling Pill, then stared at the scene of the Xuanniao spitting fire.

The fire didn't end until a quarter of an hour later.

The Xuanniao gradually disappeared in the sky, while the bronze Xiezhi appeared brand new and majestic.

It suddenly turned and walked slowly towards Lu Zhengzhi and the other man.

Lu Zhengyuan was still a little scared and hid beside Lu Zhengzhi.

Lu Zhengzhi looked at the Xiezhi, his eyes meeting its.

His intuition told him that the time for the trial to end had come.

Sure enough, the bronze Xiezhi stood in front of the two of them and hummed softly.

Soon, bronze liquid flowed from all parts of the valley that had turned into flat land and gathered in front of Lu Zhengzhi.

Until finally, it turned into a bronze plane, on which bronze creatures were moving slowly.

Before Lu Zhengzhi could figure out what it was, Lu Zhengyuan pointed at a group of humanoid creatures above and exclaimed, "Girl Bai Jie!"
