How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 162 - 0159 Ambush

Facing Lu Zhuo alone with his puppet, who wanted to launch a frantic counterattack.

Mei Changqing's wooden box in hand slowly opened, revealing half a withered bone finger, emitting a chilling and immense aura of a corpse.

"That is..."

Lu Zhuo's expression tightened, showing a trace of deep wariness.

"Even if you blood sacrifice this object to launch one or two invincible attacks, the price you will have to pay will be extremely grievous."

Lu Zhuo's voice deepened, yet his figure was slowly retreating.

His gaze then moved to another side, towards Chen Yu and Tong Yuling.

If he remembered correctly, the other half of the Blood Soul Flower had fallen into the hands of that non-top disciple.

It seemed that there was also a small bud obtained by Chen Yu.

After weighing his options,

Lu Zhuo finally flickered away in retreat, giving up on the half of the Blood Soul Flower at the Bone Demon Palace's side.

At this time.

His bloodline power had depleted quite a bit, and the Bone Demon Palace had the most available hands and strong fighters.

What he feared most

Was the last ace in Mei Changqing's hand.

Peng chi!

Lu Zhuo and the puppet together tore open a gap in the Silver Pattern Blood Curtain and burst through.

Whoosh~

At the exit of the Blood Sky Hall, Mei Changqing's body swayed, his complexion turning pale.

"Brother Mei!"

Jiang Ping and others couldn't help but cry out low, supporting Mei Changqing.

Clearly.

After several tough fights with Lu Zhuo, Mei Changqing's injuries had accumulated, and he had been seriously hurt.

After all, he did not possess the powerful self-healing physique like Chen Yu.

"There is no danger to my life."

Mei Changqing waved his hand, closing the wooden box in his hand, causing that half withered bone finger and the terrifying corpse aura to vanish completely.

"It's good that this person has retreated. Once I sacrifice this object, I can indeed launch one or two attacks close to the Guiyuan Realm, but I will lose a great amount of vital blood and life essence, possibly dropping my cultivation level, and even affecting my future advancement to the Guiyuan Realm."

Mei Changqing murmured.

The object in the box was his biggest trump card, an unbeatable ace.

But this object, unless absolutely necessary, must not be used.

"From now on, I will rest here for three days. No disciple is allowed to act without permission."

Mei Changqing ordered.

Looking at the figure of Lu Zhuo pursuing his prey, he hooked the corner of his mouth with a hint of coldness.

"Brother Mei has a good strategy. There will be a life-and-death fight between Chen Yu and Lu Zhuo. No matter which side wins, we will reap the benefits of the fishermen,"

Yuan Li, the man in battle armor, said with a smile on his face.

Now,

The Bone Demon Palace needs to do nothing but recuperate and bide its time.

...

Swoosh!

After breaking through the Silver Pattern Blood Curtain, Lu Zhuo's first action was to pursue Tong Yuling.

Chen Yu was also pursuing Tong Yuling.

Invisible to each other, the three of them formed a straight line.

Lu Zhuo swallowed two elixirs and, with a gloomy expression, watched the man and woman fleeing ahead.

"Chen Yu! You have repeatedly foiled my good deeds, I will tear you to pieces..."

Lu Zhuo's heart was filled with boundless hatred and murderous intent.

While pursuing Tong Yuling, Chen Yu had already instructed Chen Ying'er to leave with the Purple Fox. He believed that with the fox to protect her, Chen Ying'er would be safer than most.

"Stop right there!"

A cold shout came from the Yunyue Sect team.

Zoom!

Out darted Kun Ling, clad in a purple robe, who held a red-gold broadsword in his hand, blocking Lu Zhuo's path.

Chen Yu, who had run a distance away, saw this scene and cried out in dismay.

On a normal day,

He and Kun Ling did not have a particularly good relationship.

It began with "Qiu Xinxin," where Kun Ling showed some hostility towards him, and later because he felt this person was rather arrogant.

"Chen Yu, last time at the Yan Family Castle, I, Kun, owed you a favor. It's time to repay it now."

Kun Ling said calmly.

Last time at the Yan Family Castle, if it were not for Chen Yu leading the team and arriving just in time, he and Senior Sister Xie Jing would have probably encountered misfortune.

Whizz chi!

He swung his red-gold broadsword, releasing a near-zhang-long Golden Pattern Blade Radiance, where the incisive wind pre-emptively struck Lu Zhuo.

After entering the Blood Burial Garden, Kun Ling also had his gains, and his cultivation had reached the limits of the Organ Refining Stage.

This strike was his peak effort.

At the same moment.

Zeng zeng!

Fang Haofei and Xie Jing attacked Lu Zhuo from both sides.

"Junior Brother Chen, I will also lend you a hand this time to stop this dark kid."

Fang Haofei said with a light chuckle.

"You... you all fall back!"

Chen Yu, who was in pursuit ahead, shouted in alarm.

For the first time, his face showed a touch of urgency and unease.

Kun Ling and the others, who had arrived later, were still unaware of how truly fearsome Lu Zhuo was.

Clank chi! Ding ding!

Lu Zhuo stood in place, striking sparks in all directions while standing firm against Kun Ling's strike, completely immobile and unharmed.

On both sides, the attacks from Fang Haofei and Xie Jing didn't even break Lu Zhuo's skin.

"This... "

Kun Ling was dumbstruck, and the three showed looks of horror.

"A bunch of ants!"

Lu Zhuo, with disdain on his face, stirred up a cluster of dark, gloomy energy on his arm.

Ah!

Kun Ling screamed as he was directly swept by that dark, gloomy energy, his body instantly slashed in two, blood spreading on the spot.

Pong chi!

A trace of the residual dark energy also sent Fang Haofei and Xie Jing flying.

Among them,

Fang Haofei had a deep gash across his abdomen, bitterly closing his eyes as his consciousness plunged into silence.

"Brother Kun..."

Seeing Kun Ling's body, Xie Jing's eyes filled with blood, ignoring her serious injuries, and frantically lunged at Lu Zhuo.

"Don't! Senior Sister Xie..."

The two disciples behind her grabbed Xie Jing and pulled her to the ground, not letting her move even in death.

Zoom!

After slaying Kun Ling, Lu Zhuo did not spare another glance and continued chasing in the direction of Chen Yu and Tong Yuling.

"Brother Kun..."

Xie Jing, with tears on her face, fainted in front of Kun Ling's body.

For a long time, she had silently watched over this proud man who, however, harbored feelings for Qiu Xinxin, the number one beauty of the Yunyue Sect's inner sect.

Later,

after Qiu Xinxin's betrayal, she finally had a chance to be with Brother Kun.

At Yan Family Castle, they faced the Infinite Thief and shared life-and-death experiences; in the Blood Burial Garden, they fought side by side...

But all memories halted at the ghastly moment when Kun Ling was cleaved in two.

The death of Kun Ling, along with Fang Haofei's mysterious disappearance, caused Chen Yu, who was in hot pursuit, to falter in his steps.

A surge of unprecedented murderous intent flickered in Chen Yu's eyes.

"Lu Zhuo! I never bore you intense animosity; I only wanted a share of the Blood Soul Flower. I never imagined you would slay my fellow sect members..."

Chen Yu took a deep breath, suppressing the fury in his chest.

He had never liked Kun Ling, yet he had not expected him to take such a stand and encounter this misfortune.

And Fang Haofei!

But,

Chen Yu could not linger at this moment.

He must kill Lu Zhuo, but fighting here would endanger his sect brothers and possibly attract the interference of other formidable competitors.

"This is not a suitable place for battle."

Chen Yu gathered strength in his heart, accelerating his pursuit of Tong Yuling.

Tong Yuling's situation was equally dire; if too much time passed, her consciousness would be devoured by that unknown powerhouse, and she would lose herself.

Soon,

Chen Yu noticed that the "Tong Yuling" ahead was running down a familiar path.

At a certain moment,

an ancient, dilapidated temple appeared ahead, shrouded under a layer of the Silver Pattern Blood Curtain.

"It's actually this place!"

Chen Yu watched as "Tong Yuling," with a flash of blood patterns, easily passed through the Array's restrictions and entered deep into the temple.

Wasn't this the very inheritance site where he and Liu Xin'er had spent time?

Zoom!

With one hand, Chen Yu quietly gripped an ancient Token, slicing through the Silver Pattern Blood Curtain to arrive at the temple entrance.

However,

he did not continue to pursue Tong Yuling.

Glancing back,

Chen Yu's expression turned cold as he fixed his gaze on Lu Zhuo, who was nearing the Silver Pattern Blood Curtain.

"Now is the best time to kill this man."

Chen Yu immediately activated his heart.

Thump! Thump-Thump! Thump-Thump-Thump!

Chen Yu's heartbeat quickly reached a critical threshold.

At that moment,

Lu Zhuo's Bloodline Power had been mostly depleted, his strength falling by a fraction.

The biggest threat was the Qi Transformation Realm puppet he possessed.

Smash!

Lu Zhuo let the puppet move forward, swinging a massive sword. Together, they quickly broke through the diminished power of the Array's restrictions.

Just as Lu Zhuo and the puppet entered beneath the curtain of light,

Chen Yu made his move!

Woosh!

An afterimage flickered, and a fierce gust of wind had already enveloped Lu Zhuo.

"So fast!"

Lu Zhuo's face changed dramatically.

He had been on guard against Chen Yu, but never expected the other's speed to suddenly surge to such an extent.

Thump-Thump-Thump! Thump-Thump-Thump!

Chen Yu had entered an "explosive technique," from the depths of his body to his limbs, a vigorous and renewed strength surged forth.

In an instant,

his strength and speed doubled from normal!

Boom!

A large, dark-green shadow of a fist struck Lu Zhuo up close.

Barely managing to invoke his Bloodline Power, Lu Zhuo's forearm shined with black iron patterns and burst forth with a gloomy radiance.

Thump-Thump Stagger—Bang—

That horrifying punch sent Lu Zhuo staggering back several steps, his internal energy roiling, nearly causing him to vomit blood.

Had it not been for his protective beast-skin armor, that punch would have caused him severe injury.

"Prepare to die!"

Just as Chen Yu was about to close in again, Lu Zhuo's figure shifted, taking cover behind the puppet.

The puppet was over ten feet tall, wielding a shield and sword, like an iron wall.

Clang-Clang-Boom!

Holding the Xuan Heavy Sword, Chen Yu, in his explosive state, managed to confront the puppet head-on without defeat.

Even in terms of speed and agility, he was slightly superior to the Qi Transformation Realm puppet.

"This kid..."

Lu Zhuo was shaken, a sense of retreat creeping into his mind.

Facing Chen Yu in his current state, even if Lu Zhuo's Bloodline Power remained at its peak, he might not be able to withstand such a ferocious offensive.

"This puppet's defense is comparable to a Qi Transformation Innate..."

Chen Yu's intense barrage was mostly blocked by the puppet.

Whoosh!

An afterimage flickered, and Chen Yu disappeared from the front of the puppet, retracting the Xuan Heavy Sword into his storage pouch.

Swipe!

In the next instant, Chen Yu's speed, twice that of normal, allowed him to close in on Lu Zhuo from the side.

Lu Zhuo hastily retreated, commanding the puppet to shield him.

Suddenly,

he felt a sharp pain at his feet as something bit him. Caught off guard, he was nearly bitten through the skin.

After all, his Bloodline Power was nearly exhausted, and he couldn't always protect his whole body. Moreover, the Iron Moon Strange Insect, having fed on the Blood Soul Bud, had grown significantly more aggressive in its attacks.

Just as Lu Zhuo's form tensed for an instant,

Swipe!

Chen Yu rapidly closed in, the renewed power surging within him about to erupt from his arm.

Not good!

Lu Zhuo felt a sinking sensation in his breath and blood.

In the crisis, he hastily infused the remaining Bloodline Power and energy into his beast-skin armor.

Buzz!

A layer of purple-green light emanated from the armor, protecting his entire body.

This piece of beast-skin armor was a High Grade Treasure and could form an energy layer that protected his whole body, despite the tremendous energy drain.

Unexpectedly,

as Chen Yu's fist approached, a dull, inconspicuous short sword appeared in his hand.

"Slice!"

Chen Yu channeled the surging power and Inner Qi of his entire body into the Dark Snake Sword.

A bizarre scene unfolded.

Pop~

The Blood Moon of the Blood Burial Garden space shone upon the Dark Snake Sword, casting blood-colored crystalline brilliance upon the blade and boosting its might by over thirty percent!
