Chapter 347 Why is it always a high-end game

? "What are you doing standing there?" Hou Cang said angrily, "How dare you be so lax when facing an opponent who is above your realm?"

The long sword was across Lin Du, and the sword blade burst out with a bite of sword energy, sweeping away the rolling black air.

Lin Du stopped retreating and said with a smile, "Isn't

it because I am here?" Hou Cang sneered, "What if I was not here today? Wouldn't you be buried in the demon world alone? You want to rely on others when you are young and don't learn well?"

"You are still too weak." His voice was merciless, "You are holding me back."

Lin Du raised his eyebrows and said nothing, watching Hou Cang blocking in front of her, with sword energy overflowing, splitting the purple-black magic light, splitting the colorful and strange world into a piece of pure spiritual light.

She tried to circle around it and found that she couldn't break through it by force with her spiritual power. She thought, "Illusionary Realm."

This is the domain of the Seventh Elder of the Demon Clan.

Most of the evil demons in the demon tide have not yet awakened their wisdom and act entirely on instinct. This is actually the first time that Lin Du has faced off against a strong demon.

Hou Cang is at the top of the Chongxiao List after all, so Lin Du is not too worried that he will lose.

She was thinking about the follow-up in her mind.

One-on-one still has a chance of winning. Qi Zhen is in the sect, but there are other masters in the top ten besides Wen Fu and the one in front of her.

It's better to escape as soon as possible.

After Lin Du retreated to Hou Cang again, she was not very familiar with the domain, but on that day when the inheritance was passed down in the mansion, she was taught nine chess games, all of which were completed in the domain created by the predecessors.

She memorized all nine chess games, but she had not yet completely digested the Taoist teachings.

The easiest way to break the domain is for the owner of the domain to die. The second way is to use the domain's laws to break it.

Lin Du sighed. She was still a child, how could she play high-end games?

Is it too late to be enlightened on the spot?

Hu You looked at Lin Du sitting down and was a little overwhelmed. What did this mean? Start on the spot?

Here, the situation is hot and the swords are everywhere, the demonic energy is rampant, and over there, there is even a... chessboard?

Hu You completely collapsed. It seems that he will be finished today.

Lin Du moved quickly and restored the game of chess at a rapid speed.

"The board is square and still, the chess pieces are round and moving, following the laws of heaven and earth."[Note 1]

Lin Du's speed of making moves became faster and faster, and the words that the sage said when he made his moves that day also rang in her ears. The board is

square, which is still.

The domain is still, and it is the people inside that are moving.

Although the principles are different from the formation, there are similarities.

To break this board, we must make the chess pieces inside move until the balance is broken.

The chess pieces are power, and each move, seemingly weak, has different uses.

To defeat the power of this side, we must decompose the power in this domain and create chess pieces from the broken parts.

Lin Du lowered his eyes, recalling the other side's explanation of how to break the chess game of splitting the domain, his hand suspended above the chessboard.

The domain here is ultimately a siege, and there are no variables.

Hou Cang didn't wait for Lin Du's next move. The divine bone and the spirit sword collided again. The divine bone exploded with powerful force. The huge recoil force forced Hou Cang to fly out to relieve the force.

While retreating, Hou Cang turned his head and saw the still Lin Du. Even though the lower half of his face was covered, his face still showed a moment of ferocity.

This little junior sister is really a nobody!

"It seems that the thirteenth on the Chongxiao list is nothing more than that."

The seventh elder laughed charmingly, "It seems that I have won your heart today."

Her eyes finally fell on Lin Du, "Oh, it seems that someone has already surrendered. It seems that the disciples of the Supreme Sect are not as powerful as rumored."

"I remember this person, wasn't she very powerful when she broke the formation? Now she can't break it in my domain?"

"Since she ruined the Venerable's plan of refining souls and dismantling bones before, we might as well fulfill her wish today."

Hou Cang finally stopped retreating and raised the sword again, "She just believes that I can kill you."

The sharp sword intent suddenly soared, and the silver light was as colorful and dazzling as the brilliance of pearls, and it went straight to the woman's face crisply and neatly, and the sword intent was proud, breaking through the surging black and purple aura emitted by the divine bone all the way.

Like a white shark fin sliding through the surging black sea waves, it broke through the waves, smashing the fierce black waves that were as oppressive as a huge mountain, and rushed straight to the woman's face.

The Seventh Elder dodged to the side, his waist was soft like a vine, and he seemed to be giving in, but his other hand was already hiding a murderous intention.

The purple-gold dagger with a cold glow sank into the black mist, and rushed up high with the sword, forcing her to stab the waist and abdomen behind her.

A white chess piece also shot out from Lin Du's hand, and blocked the sharp blade of the dagger with a click, and the white jade broke with a click.

Hou Cang immediately dodged to the side after noticing it, and the long sword in his hand turned and circled in the air, slashing horizontally towards the Seventh Elder, colliding with the divine bone again, causing his palm to crack and blood to flow out.

Lin Du stood up and put away the chessboard, "Brother, half a cup of tea time."

Before Hou Cang could react to the meaning of Lin Du's words, thirty-six handleless short blades appeared in front of Lin Du.

He came back to his senses and focused on the evil demon in front of him.

Killing this evil demon is not too difficult, at most it will consume all the spiritual power, but the divine bone is indeed tricky, and it has a strong suppressive effect on their spiritual practice. Within the domain, they cannot communicate with the outside world, and many seals and decrees cannot be used.

His hands were slippery, but Hou Cang didn't waste his spiritual power to heal the wound. He rubbed it on his clothes casually, raised his sword, and with a firm look, he struck again. His moves were simple and direct, but each time more fierce than the last.

Originally, Hou Cang could only barely maintain a 50-50 advantage, but this time he seemed to be reckless. Although he was in someone else's territory, he was suppressing the opponent step by step.

The sword light was dazzling, blocking the woman's attention from turning to Lin Du.

This is the short blade that Cang Li re-refined for Lin Du. All of it is made of the finest natural treasures "robbed" in recent years. The minerals and metals are rare among rare items. The patterns and materials on it are properties designed by Lin Du himself. Even if it is the first time to use it, Lin Du can quickly arrange all the short blades.

Nine short blades were first scattered and stabbed into the space, forming square points.

Lin Du's consciousness judged the direction of the energy. One by one, the short blades fell, slowly separating the continuous force, cutting, interrupting, and finally breaking.

The last short blade was forced into the space by Lin Du. In an instant, the space was swirling with chaos. The originally perfect domain fell apart, and the light from the outside world leaked in. Thirty-six light points emitted a dazzling light. At first glance, it was like a game of white pieces winning a big victory.

Lin Du stood in the wind, his robes rustling, raised one hand, opened his eyes, and his consciousness was gathered in an instant.

Thirty-six short blades, the thirty-six moves she made, approached her at the same time, splitting the space all the way, the scene was fragmented, announcing Lin Du's successful breakthrough.

Hu You had been calculating the time in his mind, and couldn't help but be surprised, it was exactly half a cup of tea.

At the same moment, Hou Cang's last sword broke through the air with force, overwhelmed the surging purple-black magic and the power of rules, and pierced into the woman's chest.

The Seventh Elder smiled instead of getting angry, and even walked a little closer with a smile, "You think you can kill me with just a spirit sword?"

The moment he noticed the influx of external air currents, he raised his hands to form a seal, commanding all the spirits of heaven and earth, "All heavens salute, the seven stars shine together, the devil souls are annihilated, and the evil spirits are cleared."

The wind and clouds between heaven and earth changed, and the golden seal took shape in his hands and was slapped into the wound pierced by the spirit sword.

The Seventh Elder stared with his eyes wide open, the golden light sank into her body, and instantly strangled her demon fetus. The golden light spread, and the thick black demonic energy rolled out, indicating that the evil demon could no longer control its own demonic energy.

Hou Cang turned his head and looked at Lin Du.

"Although it's a last-minute trick, it's still considered clever. There aren't many people in this world who can break the domain this way."

Lin Du put away the short blade and looked up at the strange meat mountain in front of him.

"Brother, do you believe me when I say I regret it?"

"Is it too late to sew up the domain now?"

Hou Cang turned his head and tightened his hand holding the sword. The pupils in his eyes, which were usually calm, trembled slightly. "It seems too late... She's dead."

Hu You couldn't shout anymore. He let out a long breath, tilted his neck and rolled his eyes. "Ah, I'm dead~"

Really, he's really dead, don't disturb him.

The meat mountain in front of them was comparable to the Demon God Mother Tree, only more straightforward, without vines to restrain it, just flesh on flesh, arms and legs hanging randomly, slowly crawling on the ground, lying between them, blocking all their ways.

This is not as good as being trapped in the domain by the Seven Elders of the Demon Palace.

Lin Du is regretting it now, very much.
