"What?"
Sun Fu's younger brother—the one who had always been inseparable from him—had not been seen during the zombie tide's assault on Cangzhou Fairy City.
"If you defeat quickly enough, maybe you can even collect the bodies of your Hartmann family mbers! Hehehe!" Sun Fu laughed with a sinister glee.
At those words, Luis's murderous aura surged. After days of relentless fighting and slaying zombies, his accumulated killing intent was as fierce as that of any soldier on the Izumo front.
"Die!" Luis roared.
His sword transford into starlight, and he imdiately slashed toward Sun Fu's dantian. The Rainbow Sword moved as fast as lightning, its starlight piercing the sky and striking Sun Fu's dantian directly.
"Boom!!"
At that critical mont, Sun Fu parried the Rainbow Sword with a claw. Glancing at the buzzing sword and then at his two severed fingers, he nodded, "Your strength has improved so fast. A few weeks ago, you couldn't even break my brother's defense, but now you can actually injure . Not bad!"
Luis said nothing as starlight fell like teors, bombarding Sun Fu's dantian relentlessly. Sun Fu blocked left and right, continuously chopping at the flying swords, but he couldn't withstand Luis's relentless assault.
Everyone was stunned—here was a cultivator in the early stage of Foundation Building suppressing a zombie at the Half Step Golden Core level. Who would believe it if they were told?
Even though it was clear to all, with Sun Fu's power, if he managed to catch Luis, Luis would have died on the spot. (You wish!)
Yet, Sun Fu simply couldn't do it. The power of Luis's flying sword was enough to shatter Sun Fu's defense.
Ignoring it would have drained his strength instantly once Luis's sword broke through his corpse pill.
At that point, Sun Fu wouldn't have been able to block even a single attack—he was already at a disadvantage and destined to be defeated.
The female cultivator in the yellow gauze, watching the battle with horror, turned to Fairy Chi Yao beside her and said, "Senior Sister, this person is too ruthless! A cultivator in the early stage of Foundation Building is overpowering that zombie!"
Fairy Chi Yao considered it for a mont, then shook her head and replied, "Look, the strength of that zombie is far below that of a normal Half Step Golden Core cultivator.
It has all the potential power, but it doesn't know how to use it. If we assu this Cangzhou swordsman can unleash ten tis his strength with a single point of focus, then this zombie is only using about ten percent of its strength to produce rely two or three percent of its potential.
The difference is enormous!"
In the air, Sun Fu seed to realize his own disadvantage.
"No, if this continues, he'll slowly kill !" he thought. Glancing at Luis, he lashed out again, chopping at the flying sword with his claws. Miraculously, the broken claw on his left hand regenerated instantly.
anwhile, Luis went completely berserk. Starlight fell like teors one after another, as three flying swords combined to form an endless rain of light.
"Ah!" Sun Fu roared as he protected his dantian with his arms and rushed toward Luis.
But before he could gain more than a few dozen feet, Luis's starlight barrage bombarded him, forcing him to retreat repeatedly.
No one could beat him! It beca evident to everyone that Sun Fu—a strong zombie—could not overco Luis. Although the fight was not a one-sided victory, the balance clearly tilted in Luis's favor.
Off the battlefield, the Lord of Zhenhai Palace nodded slightly and asked, "Have you touched the third level of sword intent—the realm of transformation into stars?"
"Boom!!"
"Boom!!"
"Boom!!"
The bombardnt grew increasingly frequent until Sun Fu's recovery speed could no longer keep up with Luis's relentless attacks.
Then, with a sudden flash, starlight pierced Sun Fu's abdon and shattered his corpse pill. In that mont, his claws, which had been regenerating frantically, ceased their growth.
"You lose!" Luis declared.
Luis then stopped and said, "According to our agreent, you should now tell the location of the old demon Shen Jue!"
"Hehehe!"
Sun Fu lowered his head, revealing a huge gap in his abdon, and replied with a mocking smile, "Do you really think my master will reveal his location? Fool—I've lied to you! If I were you, I'd just go back to Guang'an Prefecture to see my family!"
"Do you think you're the only smart person in this world?" Luis shot back.
Sun Fu looked at him in horror. "I an, go to hell!"
In another flash, the starlight pierced through Sun Fu's corpse pill completely, and his body fell into the sea.
The Lord of Zhenhai Palace watched this scene in silence. Deep down, he knew that with the old demon Shen Jue's cautious nature, he would never reveal the location of his cave to his corpse servants. Yet, to completely eliminate that beast, there remained a slim chance for a cure—and the result was as expected.
"Senior!" Luis bowed before the Lord of Zhenhai Palace.
"This fellow still has a backup plan in Guang'an Prefecture. I must return there imdiately to offer assistance!"
When word spread through Guang'an Prefecture that Sun Mang was still present, concern began to rise.
Although everyone knew that the zombies Sun Fu left in Guang'an Prefecture were rely a small elite force and certainly not a massive horde that could be detected by the Cangzhou coalition forces, Sun Mang was a Half Step Golden Core Zombie after all.
The Lord of Zhenhai Palace nodded and said, "Go!"
"Yes!"
After saying that, Luis turned and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute, fellow Taoist!" a female voice called out behind him—it was Fairy Chi Yao.
"The speed of the flying battleship is too slow. It's better to take my Lingzhou, which is ten tis faster."
Hearing this, Luis paused, bowed, and said, "Thank you, Fairy!"
"You're welco, fellow Daoist!" Fairy Chi Yao replied, nodding as she stretched out her jade hand.
A three-inch spirit boat appeared in her palm. With a gentle toss, the spirit boat swelled in the wind, transforming in a flash into an erald-green vessel nearly a hundred feet long.
Luis, not one to be left out, flew onto the spirit boat in a flash, with Fairy Chi Yao and the female cultivator in goose-yellow gauze following closely behind. The spirit boat soared into the sky and headed toward Guang'an Prefecture.
In the southwest waters of the Ten Thousand Star Sea, a spirit boat sliced through the sky as fast as a stream of light, heading toward Guang'an Prefecture.
On board, Luis cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your help, fairies. May I know your nas?" Discover exclusive content at My Virtual Library Empire
Chi Yao remained silent for a mont. Then the female cultivator in a yellow gauze dress replied playfully, "She is my senior sister, Chi Yao, and my na is Yue'e. And what is your na, little Taoist?"
"Don't bla —my junior sister has been practicing in the sect since she was young, and she isn't very experienced in the world. I hope you'll forgive for any rudeness," Luis responded.
Chi Yao glanced at Yue'e and quickly apologized to Luis, "No problem, no problem."
Luis smiled. "How could I care about Fairy Yue'e's frank words? I am Luis Hartmann, a cultivator from the Hartmann family of Hartmann Island in Guang'an Prefecture. It's a pleasure to et you both, fairies!"
After the formal greetings, Chi Yao nodded. "Friend Luis, I have sothing I don't understand."
"Please, speak, Fairy," Luis said, extending his hand.
Chi Yao hesitated and then said, "According to what the corpse servant ntioned earlier, the situation in Guang'an Mansion should be extrely critical right now. Why do you not seem anxious?"
Hearing this, Luis smiled and replied, "Guang'an Prefecture Immortal City is protected by a fourth-level formation and guarded by many cultivators. A few zombies are of no consequence. As for my own family, if any zombies dare to appear, they will suffer."
"I see," Chi Yao nodded. "It's a pity that despite all our efforts, we still haven't completely eliminated the old demon Shen Jue. As long as he remains, the Ten Thousand Star Sea will never know peace."
She sighed, and hearing this, Luis felt a heavy burden settle over him. In the past, he had only heard the na of Master Shen Jue in legends, but now he was eting him face to face.
Although he had only engaged briefly with a clone of Master Shen Jue, the pressure his opponent exerted was unprecedented.
If it hadn't been for the vortex in his sea of consciousness and the tily intervention of the Lord of Zhenhai Palace, Luis would have had no choice but to flee to the Fantasy World.
Now that he had managed to break free from Shen Jue's renowned Soul-Fixing Divine Light, he was probably already being targeted by Shen Jue.
Being targeted by such a sinister, cunning, and powerful figure was no good. As long as Master Shen Jue remained, he would pose a trendous threat.
Thinking of this, Luis sank deep into his own sea of consciousness.
