The Lord of Void and Real-Chapter 911 - 908
Chapter 911: 908
"It’s clear that you’ve laid a solid foundation in the True Immortal Realm, and now your strength in the Taiyi Realm seems even more substantial. If we were to clash head-on, even I may not have much of an advantage. So, I’ll have to let these brothers keep you company—they are all immortal beings. I hope they make it enjoyable for you," the man in the black cloak said with a cold laugh.
Shen Luo naturally understood that this guy intended to exploit the fact that his qi was not stable and his mana was not yet fully replenished, aiming to exhaust his mana with these Twelve Star Officials before personally stepping in to secure the victory.
"Your Excellency, you seem to be ganging up on me, which is a bit unfair," Shen Luo said with knitted brows, rubbing his chin.
"Unfair? I think it’s perfectly fair, just enjoy the game," the man in the black cloak retorted, shrugging his shoulders nonchalantly and stepping back. He wore a mocking expression as he watched Shen Luo.
Seeing this, a smile gradually spread across Shen Luo’s face.
He then waved his hand, and a burst of golden light shone forth in front of him. A golden book suddenly appeared in the void, with one name after another lighting up. Accompanied by streaks of virtual light, silhouetted figures emerged one after another, floating in the air. freēnovelkiss.com
A moment later, more than forty figures stood before him, and the four leaders had the heads of either a fox, a chicken, a jiao, or a xie—clearly, they were the Heart Moon Fox, Mao Ri Chicken, Horn Wood Jiao, and Dou Mu Xie.
Behind them stood thirty-six Heavenly Soldiers, each radiating spiritual light and brimming with fighting spirit.
"How is this possible, you... you actually possess the Heavenly Book!" the man in the black cloak exclaimed in shock.
"Now it’s fair, go," Shen Luo didn’t reply, but merely grinned and casually waved his hand.
At his command, the forty-plus Heavenly soldiers and generals immediately charged, surrounding the twelve ghostly Star Officials.
The man in the black cloak, seeing this, instantly darted towards the Black Ghost Banner in front of him.
But at that moment, his vision blurred suddenly as Shen Luo’s figure flashed in front of him. A big hand like an iron claw shot out towards his neck.
In the critical moment, the man in the black cloak held up a finger in front of him, the light around his body twisted, and he disappeared from his original position.
Shen Luo grabbed at empty space, then glanced to the side, a ring of golden light appearing around his pupils, chuckling softly:
"You’re right here..."
With that said, a dazzling starlight flashed on his legs, and his figure suddenly became blurry. He vanished from where he was and nearly at the same time appeared dozens of yards away in another place.
As Shen Luo’s Body Shifting and Shadow Changing form emerged, he reached out his hand as before, but this time he caught something.
In front of his hand, ripples of virtual light flashed in mid-air, and the man in the black cloak emerged from it, his throat now firmly gripped by Shen Luo.
"How is this possible?" the man in the black cloak looked incredulous.
But when he saw the golden light flickering in Shen Luo’s pupils, his expression momentarily went blank, then he showed a hint of realization.
He naturally recognized the Golden Fire Eyes capable of piercing through illusions to discern truth from falsehood.
Still, being a Taiyi Cultivator himself, the man in the black cloak was not about to surrender. He let out a light shout, his body shook violently, and almost immediately a layer of Qingxuan Qi burst forth from around him, striking at Shen Luo.
The Qingxuan Qi, nearly materializing, struck Shen Luo and made a sound like metal being struck. It shook Shen Luo so that his garments fluttered, and he was forced to take a step back.
However, his clenched palm did not loosen in the slightest, forcibly dragging the man in black cloak to catch up with him in a step.
Shen Luo’s Six Chen Whip swung up, smashing down on the man in black cloak with a whooshing roar that erupted instantly.
The dragon shadows on the Six Chen Whip were circling, as golden and black lights burst forth simultaneously, and a massive force smashed down onto the man’s shoulder.
At the same time, a bestial roar emerged from beneath his black robes, and a huge bronze lion head suddenly burst out from his shoulder, violently colliding with the Six Chen Whip.
A metallic clang resonated as the Six Chen Whip forcefully struck the bronze lion’s forehead, causing the lion head to shatter on impact, and even the black cloak he wore disintegrated, revealing a dark golden Lock Armor underneath.
The bronze lion head was indeed a beast-shaped shoulder guard on the Lock Armor, now in tatters, and the man’s arm hung limply by his side, as if the bones had been broken.
It was only then that the man in black robes reached the peak of his fury. Ignoring the fact that Shen Luo still had him by the throat, he opened his mouth, revealing a row of sharp, interlocking fangs, and bit down on Shen Luo’s arm.
"Clang"
Another sound of metal scraping echoed as the man’s fangs pierced Shen Luo’s arm, from which pale golden blood seeped out.
Seeing his own blood drawn, the man’s eyes suddenly lit up with an unusual glow, and he started to suck greedily without letting go.
Shen Luo, seeing his blood being consumed, immediately released his grasp, and a burst of golden light erupted from his palm, repelling the attacker.
However, the man in black robes licked the blood at the corner of his mouth with his tongue as if he had tasted some delicacy of the Human World, his eyes filled with avarice as he looked at Shen Luo.
A layer of Qingxuan light then shone from his shoulder to his arm, rapidly repairing the recently broken part.
"I never imagined your blood could be so pure and delicious, filled with such vibrant life force. If I sucked you dry, wouldn’t I be able to advance to the middle stage?" At this moment, the man’s expression became maniacal.
He no longer had any intention of avoiding Shen Luo and, instead, stepped closer and closer towards him.
Shen Luo frowned slightly, noting that traces of black flame began to rise from the man’s body, and his aura soared exponentially as well.
In no time at all, the rising black flames in the Void behind him gradually coalesced into a thousand-zhang tall phantom of a monstrous beast, a Giant Wolf covered in blue-black fur.
What was different, however, was that this Giant Wolf had a vertical eye on its forehead and feathered wings on its ribs, looking rather extraordinary.
Shen Luo was somewhat astonished and found the appearance of the Giant Wolf oddly familiar, yet he couldn’t recall where he had seen it.
Just then, the man suddenly leaned forward, bending his fingers into claws, and took on a predatory stance akin to Wild Beasts. With a forceful kick of his legs, he shot forth like an arrow.
"So fast."
No sooner had the thought crossed Shen Luo’s mind than the man pounced in front of him, raising a claw to swipe down at him.
As he moved, the black flame-conjured Giant Wolf behind him also swung its massive paw down at Shen Luo’s head, causing a ripping sound in the Void. Spatial cracks visible to the naked eye appeared in midair.
