Chapter 222: Jade Void Sword Appears, Bright Moon in the Sky, Moonfall Strike
Lu Chen was not unaware of the White Deer Academy’s affairs.
And he will also go to this academy, but before going, he needs to verify some other things first.
The Demon Suppression Division of Huainan Prefecture, in the residence of the Inspector General.
Yuwen Hongguang, the inspector, looked at his men and asked, "Zi Qi, are you still not ready to say it?"
"My Lord, the criminal Yue Ziqi still keeps silent about the Queen."
"Yeah……"
When Yuwen Hongguang heard this, a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.
Only a small part of his anger was due to Yue Ziqi's stubbornness. Most of it was because he was angry that he would put himself in this situation for the sake of his children's personal affairs.
Once upon a time, Yuwen Hongguang always felt that Yue Ziqi was a rare genius on par with himself.
Not only were they born in almost the same era, but they also broke through to the third level of cultivation almost one after the other.
For a while, they were even hailed as the most promising twin stars of the Daying Dynasty after Cui Chengyun of the Cui family.
Under such circumstances, Yuwen Hongguang has been competing with Yue Ziqi openly and secretly.
Both sides won and lost alternately, and it was hard to tell who was better.
But such a genius ended up like this because of a woman.
Stupid, so stupid!
Yuwen Hongguang originally thought that after he captured Yue Ziqi with his own hands, he would ask him to tell him the whereabouts of the queen and the prince.
Then he would plead with His Majesty and try to spare Yue Ziqi's life.
But now that Yue Ziqi refuses to say anything even if he dies, then he is really not far from death.
He didn’t understand. He really didn’t understand.
Just a woman, and someone else's son, what is Yue Ziqi insisting on? Although he wanted to save Yue Ziqi, Yuwen Hongguang could only protect Yue Ziqi within the scope of his duties.
You know, keeping Yue Ziqi in Huaiyang Prefecture for a few days was already the limit of what he could do.
The Imperial City had asked him more than once to send Yue Ziqi to the Demon Suppression Division of the Imperial Palace.
And when Yue Ziqi really got there, he would be doomed.
Because the people in the palace would not be as polite to Yue Ziqi as he was.
In order to avoid being implicated, the Yue family even wants Yue Ziqi to die more than anyone else.
Although it sounds cruel, the person who wants to save Yue Ziqi the most right now is not his family, but an outsider like Yuwen Hongguang.
Thinking of the imperial order that had just come, Yuwen Hongguang stood up immediately.
He was ready to give Yue Ziqi one last chance.
One last chance to redeem yourself.
Huaiyang Prefecture Demon Suppression Division, Room A.
Yuwen Hongguang came to the gate where Yue Ziqi was imprisoned, took a deep breath, and asked his men to open the gate.
"You guys go out first. No one is allowed to come in without my order."
"yes."
After everyone left, Yuwen Hongguang was about to walk in front of Yue Ziqi, but suddenly stopped.
He looked at Yue Ziqi who raised his head, and his pupils shrank.
Seeing Yuwen Hongguang's expression, Lu Chen sighed and said, "Did you find out so quickly?"
As he spoke, the demon-suppressing nails on Yue Ziqi, or Lu Chen's body, began to fall off.
Then Lu Chen fell directly to the ground, and the wounds on his body began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Looking at Yuwen Hongguang, whose expression changed from astonishment to anger, Lu Chen rarely rushed to take action, but asked: "How did you find out? I don't think I have revealed any flaws."
"And you saw through it before I even said a word. Do you have some special talent?"
Facing Lu Chen's question, Yuwen Hongguang's expression gradually calmed down.
Then the demon-suppressing robe on his body moved without wind, and a powerful pressure from the third realm was released from him, causing the floor of the entire cell to shake, and a large number of iron chains and torture instruments clanked.
He looked at Lu Chen, not hiding his murderous intent.
"No matter how much you pretend, you give me a wrong feeling."
"No matter how slow I am, there is no way I can fail to recognize a friend I have been fighting with for decades."
"Who...are you?"
Lu Chen said with emotion: "Feeling? This is indeed an unsolvable reason, but my intuition tells me that you are right."
"This is also why I don't like to use secret methods to disguise others, because no matter how similar you look or how real your performance is, there are some details that outsiders can never fake."
"After all, what's fake is always fake...it can never be real."
After saying this, Lu Chen looked up at Yuwen Hongguang in front of him and said with a smile: "You have been looking for me these days. Who do you think I am?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Yuwen Hongguang's face changed drastically.
"Are you a demon?!"
As he spoke, Yuwen Hongguang was ready to activate the restrictions of the Demon Suppression Division and use the restrictions here to eliminate Lu Chen.
You have to know that the Demon Suppression Division can imprison so many great demons and big devils in the third realm.
We don't just rely on the third-level Gu cultivators in the Demon Suppression Division.
There are also formations and restrictions here.
But before Yuwen Hongguang could take any action, he suddenly found that the environment around him became quiet.
It's eerily quiet.
Although the prison cell is still the same prison cell, the Demon Suppression Bureau is still the same Demon Suppression Bureau.
But Yuwen Hongguang could feel that this was no longer the Demon Suppression Division of his Huaiyang Prefecture.
It’s a completely new space.
After knowing all this, Yuwen Hongguang remained unmoved.
But there was sweat on his forehead and his pupils were constricted.
This undoubtedly shows that his heart is not at peace.
"When did you finish all this?"
Hearing this, Lu Chen said calmly: "The moment you stepped into the Demon Suppression Division."
The Scroll of Mountains and Seas. Lu Chen had already taken the Scroll of Mountains and Seas out of his soul the moment Yuwen Hongguang entered the Demon Suppression Division.
In addition to accommodating exotic beasts from the mountains and seas, the mountain and sea scroll can also drag enemies into the scroll world.
Lu Chen had suffered such a loss before.
And for those who haven't come across this before.
The "scroll world" of the mountain and sea painting is so mysterious that no one can detect it.
It can be said that even if the Shanhai Division did not have the help of the exotic beasts from the mountains and seas, relying on the unique effect of the Shanhai Scroll, it would be enough for the monks of the Shanhai Division to accomplish many things that ordinary people could not do.
Although Lu Chen was confident that he could defeat Yuwen Hongguang, he did not want to attract the attention of outsiders so early.
Therefore, dragging him into the painting of mountains and seas is undoubtedly the best choice.
From the moment Yuwen Hongguang was dragged into the scroll, his fate was already determined.
But even though he knew he was doomed, Yuwen Hongguang still didn't think of giving up.
Even if his opponent is a strange demon from outer space, he will not surrender.
Even if he dies, he will bite a piece of flesh off the opponent's body!
Yuwen Hongguang looked at Lu Chen, his eyes gradually becoming firm.
Then his innate poisonous insect began to exert its power, and his skin quickly turned into a metallic color.
And this is not the end yet. Red lines began to appear on Yuwen Hongguang's skin.
These lines glowed red, as if magma was flowing on Yuwen Hongguang's body.
For a moment, Yuwen Hongguang seemed to be wearing a magma armor, with an astonishing aura.
Yuwen Hongguang bathed in the magma, slowly raised his right hand, and slid it in front of him.
A special black mask suddenly appeared on his face, perfectly overlapping his cheek.
The appearance of this mask also caused the flames on Yuwen Hongguang's body to change.
From the initial bright red, it gradually turned into a deep black.
Exuding a cold and dark aura.
【Name: Yuwen Hongguang】
【Cultivation: Third Realm】
[Birth Gu: Black Gold Ant Gu (Heavenly Grade)]
[Other poisonous insects: Flame Dragon Ox Poison, Ghost Horse Poison]
[Description: A special combination of black gold ants, flame dragon bulls, and ghost horses, which can break the magic.]
"If you want to kill me, then it depends on whether you have the ability to do so."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuwen Hongguang instantly attacked Lu Chen.
The movement was swift and powerful.
The entire underground prison began to shake.
In addition, the environment of the underground prison was very narrow, which made Yuwen Hongguang absolutely confident that Lu Chen could not avoid his attack.
No matter how many tricks you have, I will break them with my strength! Yuwen Hongguang came to Lu Chen, the muscles of his right arm bulged slightly, and a large amount of black flames were released from the gaps in his armor, making bursts of roars.
This punch was earth-shattering. The terrifying force carried a scorching black flame and hit Lu Chen in the chest.
Boom! With a loud noise, the entire A-shaped cell immediately shook.
The floor, walls, and ceiling of the cell were shattered with countless cracks.
The scattered black flames ignited all flammable objects in the cell, turning it into a black sea of fire.
But this punch did not produce an effect that satisfied Yuwen Hongguang.
Because his punch did not hit Lu Chen, but went straight through Lu Chen's body.
Lu Chen's body was like a mirror, shattered in front of Yuwen Hongguang and turned into waves of lotus flowers.
"That's a good skill."
Just as Yuwen Hongguang was still looking for Lu Chen, a calm voice sounded in his ears.
In an instant, Yuwen Hongguang felt a terrifying murderous intent.
Without any hesitation, Yuwen Hongguang subconsciously activated his poisonous insect with all his strength.
A large amount of black netherworld fire immediately burst out from the black gold armor, discouraging anyone who wanted to approach him.
If an ordinary person faced this cold netherworld fire, he might choose to retreat temporarily.
But Lu Chen didn't care about these at all.
Lu Chen held the Xubai Juetian sword in his hand, broke through Yuwen Hongguang's fire barrier with one sword, and chopped towards his head.
At the critical moment, Yuwen Hongguang simply raised his arms to resist.
Phew!
Although one of his arms was cut off, Yuwen Hongguang took this opportunity to distance himself from Lu Chen and retreated to a corner.
Cell A is not small, and the entire cell covers an area of over a hundred square meters.
This is because the people imprisoned in Room A are all great demons or big devils from the three realms.
A large number of restrictions need to be placed in the cell.
In addition, some of the big monsters are not small in size, which results in the fact that only ten Type A cells are comparable to the size of dozens or hundreds of cells above.
Looking at Yuwen Hongguang who dodged his sword, Lu Chen was not surprised.
Because at this time he was only fighting with his external incarnation, not his own body.
If his real body came, that sword just now would be enough to kill Yuwen Hongguang directly.
After fighting against third-level Gu cultivators twice in a row, Lu Chen had almost figured out the tricks of these Gu cultivators.
In a sense, the fighting style of these Gu cultivators is similar to that of ordinary monsters, and most of them rely on their innate magical powers to fight.
This may be because the source of their power comes from their own poisonous insects.
The cultivation method of using poisonous insects instead of spiritual roots can certainly make the cultivation of the poison cultivator progress rapidly.
As long as the level of the Gu worm goes up, the Gu practitioner will be able to quickly improve his strength.
But everything has its pros and cons. While the poisonous insects bring great power to the poison practitioners, they also bring them huge risks.
That is, the Gu cultivator needs to be careful at all times to avoid being attacked by the Gu worms in his own body.
This means that they have to spend most of their energy on cultivating their own natal poisonous insects.
Because only in this way can they use their own innate poisonous insects to suppress the poisonous insects absorbed later.
Human energy is limited. When you choose to focus on one thing, it will be difficult for you to devote more energy to other things.
Compared to the cultivators in Zhongzhou, the Gu cultivators' understanding of the 'Tao' is too crude.
In Zhongzhou, any Jindan-stage cultivator, no matter how bad he is, can enter the Dao realm.
Many veteran Jindan-stage cultivators can even enter the Hedao realm.
But among the Gu cultivators, Lu Chen only felt the spear intent of the Dao Entry Realm from Yue Ziqi just now.
As for the remaining Cui Chengyun and Yuwen Hongguang, Lu Chen was unable to sense the state of mind of Taoism from them.
This is undoubtedly unqualified for a third-level Gu cultivator who is comparable to a Jindan stage cultivator.
Lu Chen speculated that it was not that these Gu cultivators did not want to cultivate their artistic conception, but that they did not dare to spend too much energy on it.
Therefore, even though the third-level Gu cultivators are comparable to Jindan-stage cultivators, Lu Chen feels that they are much easier to deal with than Jindan-stage cultivators.
This has nothing to do with strength, it is the suppression of "Tao".
The simple test is over, and it’s time for him to get serious.
Game over, Sword Domain... unfolds.
As Lu Chen let go of the Juetian Sword in his hand, a desolate scene instantly replaced the surrounding underground prison.
The surroundings of the prison that were originally set on fire by Yuwen Hongguang began to dissipate at a speed visible to the naked eye after the appearance of this strange area.
As a result, the power of Yuwen Hongguang's own poisonous insect was also greatly suppressed.
He could feel that the energy he was using to maintain his current 'Mysterious Gold Netherworld Body' was several times more than before! That feeling was like he was stuck in a quagmire, and every movement was accompanied by huge resistance.
Before Yuwen Hongguang could find a solution, he saw a green spirit sword appear behind Lu Chen.
After the sword appeared, it split into countless lotus sword auras.
These sword energies were so dense that they occupied and blocked all the space where Yuwen Hongguang could hide.
Feel the power contained in this lotus sword energy and its terrifying number.
Yuwen Hongguang was in despair.
Is this... the devil?
"fall."
In Yuwen Hongguang's empty eyes, countless lotus sword qi flew out, attacking him like a violent storm...
At the same time, more than a dozen mysterious men wearing masks appeared around Huaiyang Prefecture.
They stood on the top of an inn that was closest to the Huaiyang Prefecture Demon Suppression Bureau, looking expressionlessly at the Huaiyang Prefecture Demon Suppression Mansion not far away.
"Fellow Daoist Shangguan, it's up to you."
Hearing King Wumiao's words, Shangguan Yunmeng nodded, and then began to pinch her fingers to perform magic.
The next second, a dark moon suddenly appeared on top of the Huaiyang Prefecture’s Demon Suppression Division.
Faced with the sudden appearance of the bright moon, many people did not notice it at first.
It was not until the moon got close enough that people began to react belatedly.
A Taoist priest from the Demon Suppression Division looked at the bright moon above his head and spoke to his companions in a strange voice.
"Have you noticed that the moon tonight seems a little too bright?"
His companion discovered something and his face changed instantly.
"No, it's not just bright, it's... getting closer."
After these words were spoken, everyone finally reacted.
The moon, which was only the size of a basketball in their eyes, began to grow bigger and bigger.
Before long, it covered one third of the Demon Suppression Division.
When the bright moon reached a certain distance, everyone discovered that there was a jade magic sword wrapped in the falling bright moon.
That was Yuxu Mountain's Taoist weapon, the Yuxu Magic Sword! Of course, at the moment, the Yuxu Magic Sword had not been fully unlocked, and at best it was only at the level of a third-level spiritual sword.
But even so, it still brought endless despair to everyone in the Demon Suppression Division.
Because they found that they could not move under the moonlight.
I could only watch the bright moon getting closer and closer.
From the perspective of Shangguan Yunmeng and others, it looked like a huge moon with a diameter of nearly 100 meters smashing heavily towards the Demon Suppression Division.
It was at this moment that King Wumiao and others understood why Lu Chen arranged for Shangguan Yunmeng to be the first to take action.
This seemingly harmless Saintess of Yuxu Mountain is the strongest among them except for Lu Chen!
