Chapter 376: One-on-one battle between men
In Luxian City, the eight demons breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the empty black crack.
The young Taoist priest did not follow along the passage.
The crisis is over.
But it is only a temporary relief.
They looked at each other, and the Thousand-Handed Demon said with some doubt: "The Wooden King has just enhanced our cultivation. If we flee like this, he will probably be furious..."
There was silence for a moment.
The Bone Demon said calmly, "If he wants to be furious with us, he has to at least come back."
"Yes." Medicine Master Demon echoed: "That little Taoist priest was too cruel..."
When he said this, although his life was not in danger, his hands couldn't stop shaking.
There was no way, the shadow left by those repeated deaths was too deep. Although the death at that time was fake, the feeling of facing death was real.
No one understands the little Taoist priest better than him.
"But..." Yin Moji raised her head, a little puzzled: "Now even Jiang Yirong is no match for the Wooden King, why should we be afraid of the little Taoist priest?"
"Um……"
There was another silence.
If you ask whether we should be afraid, then of course we should be afraid. But if you ask why we should be afraid, I don’t know the answer.
The fear that the little Taoist priest brought to people was not like that of other powerful people, with their obvious realm or pressure. Instead, he stood there, looking harmless and handsome, and could easily kill you in one move.
No one has ever even gotten him to take two shots.
You won’t know what realm he is at until you die.
This kind of enemy full of unknowns is even more terrifying than being the best in the world.
Because even if you are the best in the world, it is certain, one is one. But an unpredictable opponent may be zero.
The Wu Xiang Demon looked at the gradually shrinking black crack and asked tentatively: "Since you are not afraid, why don't we go back and help?"
This remark immediately drew a barrage of angry comments.
"roll."
"Only a fool would go back."
"Is there something on your brain?"
“…”
The formless demon shrank his neck when he was sprayed and retreated angrily.
After a moment, Yaoshi Mo said, "I'm not afraid, but I'm still loyal to the old city lord. Now I'm just succumbing to the power of the Wooden King, so there's no need for me to work for him."
"That's right!" The Thousand-Handed Demon pounded his hands, "Me too! We have to retain our manpower before we find the old city lord."
"That makes sense." The Hundred Eyes Demon nodded in agreement. "If the Lord City Lord were still here, with it in charge, why would we be afraid of that little Taoist priest?"
“That’s right…”
As soon as this statement came out, everyone quickly reached a consensus that the reason why the young Taoist priest was allowed to be so arrogant was because the old city lord suddenly disappeared. If he was still alive, he would have slaughtered the world by blood today.
The hall was suddenly filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
…
The atmosphere between Fuhuang Moku and Li Chu was not so harmonious.
Just after returning to the courtyard, he saw that Qin Zhenghu was not in a good state. The demon in his body had erupted once tonight, and it should have calmed down. But it erupted again just now. Li Chu looked at Fuhuang's demon body and was actually a little afraid. He had fought with the demon body before and knew the terrifying power of this body.
But now that we know that this body is controlled by the Wooden King and has killed many innocent lives, it would be unreasonable to let him go.
After a fleeting thought of hesitation, Li Chu decided to take action.
According to my past experience, when facing an unknown powerful enemy, as long as I draw my sword bravely, I will always find that things are simpler than I imagined.
Difficulties are like springs; they become stronger only when you are weaker.
As soon as he thought of this, Li Chu drew his sword with his right hand.
Fuhuang Demon Body was also in deep hesitation at this time, because it was very meaningless to be an enemy of this little Taoist priest.
You can't gain anything by defeating him.
Once you lose, the loss is absolutely unbearable.
But it would be embarrassing to just turn around and run away like this...
At this moment, he was in a state of arrogance, thinking that he was the second in command. It was really hard for him to just turn around and leave without even throwing a punch.
Just as he was hesitating, he saw Li Chu on the opposite side drawing his sword.
"Okay..." Fuhuang's demon body gritted his teeth, "Since you want to fight, then I will settle all my old and new grudges with you!"
Seeing that Li Chu's sword was about to fall, he suddenly raised his hand and held the black roulette high up.
call out--
The black and gold light enveloped both of them at once.
There was a rumbling sound in his ears, and Li Chu was also pulled into the Demon Arena.
"here……"
He frowned, noticing that there were some strange rules around him that were binding him.
Unable to take action.
"Hahaha!" Fuhuang Demon Body laughed, "Welcome to the First Demon Arena, for a one-on-one battle between men!"
When he arrived at the fighting arena, his confidence immediately swelled.
He had noticed before that the sword energy of the young Taoist priest was extremely powerful. Even with the Fuhuang demon body, he had no confidence that he could remain intact under that sword energy.
But in this arena, he had an absolute advantage. In this way, he could kill the little Taoist priest without him being able to launch any attack.
There are many sword cultivators in the world whose killing power far exceeds their own realm, but the defense of such sword cultivators is relatively weak. The reason is simple, the way of heaven is fair, if your attack is ridiculously strong and your defense is terrifyingly strong, then how can this world accommodate you?
hehe.
His smile turned cruel.
"In my next life... I'll be more careful when choosing my enemies."
After uttering this cruel remark, he didn't say any more nonsense, but simply bounced his body and exploded out of thin air!
Boom! Here it comes.
There is no other move, and no other move is needed. There is only one punch, and only one punch! The most powerful body only needs the simplest way to attack! Punch!
boom--
The entire Demon Fighting Arena began to tremble and hum, shaken by the aftermath of the collision of fists and flesh, which lasted for a long time.
Tick. Tick.
The crisp sound of water drops was heard.
Fuhuang's demon body's fist still remained on Li Chu's chest.
but……
Black blood also flowed out of his mouth.
"this……"
His lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't, only more black blood gushed out.
A strange crackling sound came from his body.
It was as if something was breaking into pieces, and the entire burly body began to tremble.
An incredible light flashed in a pair of fighting cock eyes.
I have the strongest body in the world...
What kind of weird thing are you?
If you hit me seriously with this punch, I would almost die from the recoil, but you don’t feel any pain at all?
It seemed as if he heard the wailing in his heart.
Li Chu frowned, took two steps back, and said thoughtfully, "It hurts."
The punch from Fuhuang Mochuang did cause him to feel a burst of pain, and even the blood in his chest began to surge.
Unprecedented.
He hadn't felt pain for a long time since he came into this world. It was even a little strange to feel it again suddenly.
But that's all.
On the other hand, the demon body of Fuhuang on the opposite side had black cracks on the surface of its skin starting from its wrists. The terrible cracks went along its arms all the way to its face, and finally spread throughout its body, like broken porcelain.
at last.
Bang! The whole thing exploded! Li Chu looked at this scene and blinked.
He just felt that the constraints of the rules had disappeared and he could fight back, but...
I haven't even made a move yet, and you've already fallen? A stream of light shot out from the broken body of Fuhuang Demon, hanging in the air.
It was a small wooden figure the size of a palm, with a purple eyeball on its head that was much larger than the figure itself. Both the wooden figure and the eyeball were filled with fear.
It wants to escape, but it can't.
It thought the Demon Arena was amazing not long ago, but now it just thinks this magic weapon is extremely stupid.
Li Chu was very familiar with that wooden figure, which was naturally the masterpiece of the Wooden Figure King. And that purple pupil was the Eye of the First Demon that he had killed once in the Huaxu Secret Realm.
It's definitely not a good thing.
Li Chu raised the sword in his hand high and swung it lightly at the wooden man.
One on one man battle.
You punch, I use my sword.
boom--
Because they were in another space and it seemed that they could only attack once, Li Chu did not hold back at all. A column of red sword energy swallowed up the wooden man and the Eye of the Beginning Demon, and then slammed into the black and gold barrier.
Boom! The First Demon Arena shook violently again and began to emit a dazzling light.
Probably since its birth, it has never encountered such an attack that could penetrate itself, so it wants to try its best to protect itself.
pity.
As futile as the struggle of a wooden man.
Pop.
There was a sound of something breaking in the air, and Li Chu's figure suddenly appeared outside the courtyard, at the place where the Wooden King was originally.
The two broken halves of the black and gold wheel fell to the ground. Li Chu glanced at it and felt a little sorry. This magical instrument was obviously valuable, and it was a pity to destroy it like this.
Then he saw a group of bald men gathered outside the courtyard, peering inside furtively, as if it were a melon field under the moonlight.
"Eh? Master Ronghe?" Li Chu called out, "What are you doing?"
"ah!"
The monks were startled by his voice, turned around and were all shocked.
“Amitabha…” Zen Master Ronghe was the first to calm down. He tactically chanted a Buddhist name, put his hands together and asked, “There are monsters invading our temple. We are here to take you into the temple for protection… Where have you been?”
"Oh." Li Chu agreed and said casually: "I just killed a puppet of a demon sect member."
His tone was casual, as if he had just killed a fly.
Zen Master Ronghe saw that there seemed to be nothing wrong with him, and there was no so-called demonic energy on him, so he glared at Jianren. As for who Li Chu killed, he did not ask. Anyway, it was just a puppet, so it must be no big deal.
"Then let's go without delay." He said seriously, "The enemy this time is quite powerful. Judging from the attitude of the abbot, the situation may be quite serious."
"I'm afraid this is a major crisis that our temple hasn't encountered in hundreds of years!"
