Extreme Demon

Su Lun was once a genius. When he first became a magician, his teacher Yuan Quxing said so.

He has been convinced of this ever since.

Until his teacher Yuan Quxing died in an accident, reincarnated and disappeared, and was replaced by Cross Star as the head of the suburb.

Without the protection of his teacher, he lost all the auras he had in the past, and fell from a genius that everyone valued to an ordinary member.

If it weren't for his brother's secret care, I'm afraid he wouldn't have the slightest qualification to become Cross Star's assistant now.

But now, his brother finally moved around, found the right opportunity, and was about to push him to become Lord Cross Star's assistant, but he didn't expect that he was robbed by an outsider for no reason.

The cold wind blew by, and Lu Sheng on the plain held a piece of his neck with his hand. This was broken when Su Lun had just activated the neck wrapping.

Do you want more? Lu Sheng shook his neck at him.

Su Lun, who had lost a section of his neck, fell silent, and his expression gradually began to distort. There was only a gap left where he was missing, and a thick gray air connected his head and neck.

Damn you! Su Lun's whole body suddenly shrank, his neck quickly returned to its original shape, and he turned around and wanted to run away.

The opponent's body was too strong, so hard and tough that even if he tried his best, he couldn't break it. Instead, his hardest neck was broken.

Now that you're here, stay. Lu Sheng took a step forward, and his right arm suddenly stretched and lengthened. In the blink of an eye, it turned into thick black scaled claws, and he grabbed it fiercely.

Woo!

There was a scream in the air, and the gravel on the ground around Su Lun was shaken and blown away by the huge impact at any time.

Before the strong pressure could reach him, the squeezed air reached him in advance.

you!!

Before he could say anything more, he turned around and raised his arms towards Lu Shengli Claw.

boom! !

With Su Lun as the center, the ground beneath his feet suddenly exploded, revealing a huge pit with a diameter of more than ten meters and a depth of seven or eight meters.

Lu Sheng stood at the edge of the pit and slowly retracted his claws. The wounds on his body healed automatically, as if he was not injured.

Your dagger is indeed very sharp. It's a pity that you are too weak.

Su Lun stood in the center of the snake pit, with large amounts of gray energy constantly spurting out from his body, just like the blood splashing out of his body.

He stared at Lu Sheng blankly, his eyes full of horrified fear.

You are not not

Bang! !

His whole body suddenly exploded, and his whole body was completely transformed into a large ball of gray gas, dissipating in the air.

Lu Sheng stood silently by the pit and observed the gray gas surging inside.

The speed is very fast and the lethality is very strong. It can at least hurt my physical body. It is considered a standard Holy Lord level. It is just that it is too weak. It does not have the defense and vitality that a Holy Lord should have.

Perhaps this is what their magicians lack, so they forged divine weapons and threw them into the lower realms to offer sacrifices?

He guessed that although he didn't know whether this was the truth, it was at least a reason.

After careful inspection, Lu Sheng did not find any remains of corpses in the pit. Everything turned into complete gray gas, which was the source of pain, and quickly dissipated in the air.

This Su Lun, if all magicians are of his level, then indeed, the World of Pain has the power to sweep through everything. Lu Sheng estimated the level of the World of Pain. He had met Su Lun several times. The status in the town is similar to that of ordinary soldiers. If it weren't for one older brother who was doing well, he would have been ignored by everyone.

But even such a guy can actually reach the realm of the Holy Lord level.

Although his body is extremely weak, he can drive the source of pain.

If everyone in the painful world has such strength, then it is true. Lu Sheng glanced at the strange, motionless tree next to him.

Reach out and flick your fingers.

boom! !

A stream of white air suddenly shot out and hit the middle of the trunk of the big tree.

The whole tree wailed and slowly fell over, revealing a twisted old face on the trunk. He screamed and his whole body began to disintegrate and turn into gray powder.

These powders gradually dissolved into gray gas and dissipated in the sky.

Soon the big tree was gone, leaving only a bright blue clear gem.

Huh? Lu Sheng was stunned, then walked up and picked up the gem. This was the first time he had seen anything colorful in the world of pain for so long.

The gem was held between his fingers, exuding a faint warm breath, and there seemed to be a heart-like rhythm in the center, beating.

Maybe it will be of some use. Lu Sheng put away the gem, checked the location, and continued to explore in the designated direction.

In the next hour or so, he encountered several different big trees one after another, some of which used their branches to pierce corpses and suck out their flesh and blood. Some tied living creatures with branches and strangled them alive.

He named these three types of trees respectively the Whipping Dryad, the Impaling Dryad, and the Binding Dryad.

Compared to the Whipping Dryad, the Piercing Dryad was larger, had more branches and leaves, and had a stronger skin. Lu Sheng's ordinary cathode state was actually useless against it. He used his own power to successfully kill it and get a large piece of it. sapphire.

As for the bound tree demon, it is bigger and stronger. Even the height from the tree crown to the ground has reached more than thirty meters. It seems to be the evolved version of the first two. To bind the tree demon Lu Sheng almost used all his strength, with the strongest strength. The anode state started to move, and then reluctantly tore it into pieces. Get a fist-sized sapphire.

After killing the second bound tree demon, Lu Sheng knew that he could not continue. There were still many secrets in the painful world, and his current strength was not enough to figure them all out.

He still has room to become stronger. As long as he has enough spiritual power, he can push Yinhuo Mingyan to an unimaginable level.

The Holy Lord is far from the limit.

After killing the second bound tree demon, Lu Sheng turned around and returned.

******************

Half a month later, Qiuyue County.

The reconstruction work after the demon army retreated took up most of the energy of Chen Jingzhi and other three masters. Although they are not directly responsible for reconstruction, they need to maintain vigilance, protect the command of court officials and deploy additional security personnel.

Lu Sheng spent most of his time working with Holy Master Tongsheng to find Xiao Zizhu's whereabouts. When he was usually in the Dao Palace, he would ask the Holy Lord Tongsheng from time to time about cultivation issues at the Holy Lord level.

Only occasionally do I secretly enter the world of pain to complete some small tasks.

But at this moment, people from Qingluo Division came to inform Lu Sheng and Holy Lord Tongsheng. We already have some clues about the murderer who massacred and plundered the divine weapons, and I hope that the two adults will go and check it out.

When he heard the news, Lu Sheng was holding a cup of hot tea in his hand and was discussing with Holy Lord Tongsheng whether the Holy Lord's cultivation should be based on the soul or the body.

A beautiful woman in purple tights was brought in by a Qianyang Sect disciple from the Dao Palace. She knelt on one knee and reported the news that Qingluosi had received to the two of them.

If I remember correctly, the director of Qingluo Division should have been replaced, right? Lu Sheng's heart moved slightly and he asked in a calm tone.

The woman in purple said respectfully: Your Majesty is right. The director of our department is Director Cheng Xiaocheng who came from Fucheng last month.

Cheng Xiao? I have heard this person mentioned before. It is said that he is quite famous in investigation. It is possible that he can trace this case. Holy Lord Tongsheng nodded while pinching his beard. Let's go take a look together? He looked at Lu Sheng.

The black hands who can hunt down the magic weapons, I am afraid that only holy masters like them are qualified to lead the investigation.

Of course. Lu Sheng nodded. At the same time, my heart was slightly on guard.

‘Is it possible that someone saw me when I made a move? Probably not. If the Qingluosi of Qiuyue County had a way to hide it from me, they would not just work as an errand in this county. ’

Lead the way.

Holy Lord Tongsheng stood up, and together with Lu Sheng, followed the purple-clothed woman out of the study room of the Taoist Palace. Tongsheng waved his sleeves gently towards the ground, and suddenly a ball of white silk flew out of his sleeves. The person's feet automatically unfolded into a carpet, carrying the three of them and flying into the distance.

The headquarters of Qingluosi is in the county town not far from Qianyang Sect.

After the three of them landed, they were quickly greeted by a group of Qingluosi masters and walked into a quadrangle on the edge of the city. Several people were already waiting quietly in the courtyard.

Teacher Tongsheng! Seeing the three people entering the door, one of them, a red-faced man with a judge's pen magic weapon on his waist, took the initiative to take a few steps forward and bowed to Tongsheng.

Qingyuan, it's you? Why are you here? Tong Sheng was also a little surprised. He stretched out his hand to help this person up.

At the same time, he also introduced it to Lu Sheng.

Holy Lord Lu, this is my third disciple Liu Qingyuan. Remember to give me some advice when you have time.

Lu Sheng smiled and nodded. After entering, he immediately checked the surroundings covertly to see if there was any ambush, but it was obvious that there was nothing. Even the defensive measures were only at the level of the commander.

My lords, now is not the time to reminisce about old times. When I found out about the murderer, I was shocked. I didn't expect that the kind of person in the rumors actually existed.

A middle-aged man dressed as a scribe on the side said quickly.

Are you the director? Lu Sheng asked.

The lower official Cheng Xiao, named Qingchen, has met Lord Lu. The newly appointed head of Qingluo Division bowed his head and saluted Lu Sheng.

Then let's see who the murderer is first. By chance we can't find Xiao Zizhu, so let's do this first. Holy Lord Tongsheng was in a good mood when he saw his disciple. He waved his hand and was the first to enter the inner living room.

The others also followed suit, with Tong Sheng sitting in the main seat and Lu Sheng sitting in the deputy seat.

Cheng Xiao, the director of the Qingluo Department, looked solemn and ordered someone to take away the huge glass mirror and place it in front of everyone. Then he gently stroked around the circular glass mirror to light up the silver patterns.

Soon, a real surveillance-like image appeared on the mirror.

A tall middle-aged man with a huge scar on his right arm was standing in a dark street corner, holding an old woman's neck with one hand and slowly pulling the jade ring magic weapon out of the old woman's hand.

Click.

After a crisp sound, the old woman's neck broke, and a dark vortex suddenly appeared behind her. Countless pale arms stretched out from the vortex and pulled her in.

kindness?

Suddenly, the man seemed to notice someone watching him, and turned to look in the mirror.

Bang.

The image in the mirror exploded instantly, and everything disappeared completely.

This man's name is Jinghong. The director of Qingluo Department explained. He is a wanted criminal who disappeared decades ago among the three families. His strength is so powerful that it is bottomless. He escaped from the Jing family, one of the three families, with the help of one person. His personality is extreme. , because his first love and sister were both used in the Divine Weapon Art Festival, so he is full of hatred towards the Divine Weapon.

However, because he had to rely on the power of the magic weapon to practice, his temperament became more and more twisted. He relied on a magic blade he accidentally obtained, the Burning Sky Ruler, to hunt the magic weapon wantonly, and used the fragments to cultivate the Burning Sky Ruler to continuously strengthen himself.

We have heard about this kind of people who rob other people's magic weapons and powerful themselves before, but we didn't expect to actually see one.
