Chapter 210: Perfect Cooperation with Fu Xue

"Strange, why hasn't Lu Xun come back yet?"

South Heaven Gate,

In front of the Rainbow Bridge, Steward Zhu's brows were deeply furrowed.

Lu Xun has been in the Spirit Realm for over ten days, yet he still hasn't returned.

This is not normal.

Over the past month or so, Lu Xun would emerge from a Spirit Realm in as little as three to five days, or as many as eight to nine days.

He has never before stayed away for over ten days.

The passages in Spirit Realms below the Six Realms are fixed at once every seven days.

If Lu Xun entered when only two or three days remained before the passage appeared, he would often choose to wait for the next opening, but he would not stay away this long.

"The demon clan has issued a kill order on Lu Xun; could he have been blocked at the gate?"

Steward Zhu could not help but speculate.

Being blocked at the gate occasionally happens in Spirit Realms.

Specifically, it depends on which Spirit Realm; generally it is one with a good natural environment, abundant resources, and not exceptionally large.

It's not only the demon clan that can block the gate; other foreign races can do so as well.

Sometimes human cultivators join forces to block the gates of other races.

Lu Xun's abnormality this time is very likely due to being blocked at the gate.

Therefore, Steward Zhu decided to report the situation to Fu Xue.

"Blocked the gate?"

"Yes, Elder Fu, the demon clan has issued a kill order on Lu Xun, so I suspect he is very likely to have been blocked by the demon clan."

"Okay, I understand."

Fu Xue's reaction was very bland.

After Steward Zhu left, she quietly departed from the Beidou Hall's station.

"Kid, you can't escape!"

At this moment,

In the Storm Spirit Realm, a Six Realms demon clan cultivator surged forward in pursuit of Lu Xun.

"Damn it!"

But after chasing for over ten minutes, Lu Xun still managed to get away.

Lu Xun was especially careful, choosing a place to strike that would not be too close to the demon clan's Six Realms cultivators.

Furthermore, with his Heavenly Dao Eye, he would scout ahead for ambushes and then plan his retreat route.

So even though there were three Six Realms demon clan cultivators in this Spirit Realm, after several days they failed to catch Lu Xun, and he even killed many of them.

"Aodaili, why aren't you continuing your breakthrough?"

Lu Xun now only hopes that Aodaili can break through to become a Great Magus, so that his magical cultivation will definitely reach the Six Realms.

Facing these Six Realms cultivators, he would at least have a fighting chance.

His cultivation in martial immortality is still a bit low, so he can only rely on magic.

Going from Magus to Great Magus is equivalent to advancing from the Four Realms to the Five Realms; the difficulty is still considerable.

Perhaps that's why, over the past month or so, Aodaili has shown little movement.

I don't know where she is, or whether she has entered an Ancient Path node.

Although Aodaili did not continue her breakthrough, Murong Wan did.

She successively opened the secret apertures of the five viscera and six bowels, in one go breaking through to the seventh layer of the Three Realms.

Lu Xun also followed and reached the seventh layer of the Three Realms.

After opening the secret apertures of the five viscera and six bowels, with the aid of Murong Wan's return, Lu Xun still awakened several powerful divine abilities.

The strength of his internal organs likewise received a qualitative boost.

His strength naturally became even more formidable.

Next, Murong Wan had only three secret apertures left.

One is the skin, two is the bone, three is the brain.

For these three secret apertures, achieving a good opening effect also demands substantial resources.

Fortunately, Lu Xun prepared ample resources for Murong Wan, all of which could be called top-tier.

On Chu Youqing's side, she also breaks through a layer from time to time.

Lu Xun's Immortal Dao cultivation has reached the peak of the Four Realms.

With his current strength, even without using magic or immobilization spells, he has no rival below the Six Realms.

Although his magical cultivation is ahead, as his martial immortality cultivation gradually catches up, his combat power is now not inferior to magic.

"Another one has come!"

The situation for Lu Xun is getting worse and worse.

The demon clan has actually sent another Six Realms cultivator.

In this five-star Spirit Realm, there are now a full four Six Realms cultivators.

"They really think highly of me."

Four Six Realms cultivators have come to encircle Lu Xun, and indeed they think highly of him.

This also shows how troublesome Lu Xun is.

Otherwise, a single Six Realms cultivator could have dealt with Lu Xun; there would be no need for four.

Four Six Realms cultivators: one blocks the gate, three roam everywhere searching for Lu Xun.

The demon race's warning formations they set up are also growing more numerous.

Lu Xun, relying on various methods, although these three Six Realms cannot block him, but for Lu Xun to return via normal means is a major problem.

Of course, Lu Xun has not been without gains these past few days.

The demon race members he killed, their demonic qi basically all turned into nourishment for the Southern Ming Separation Fire.

The Southern Ming Separation Fire nurtured by Lu Xun is growing ever stronger.

Lu Xun also learned a rough idea of why the demon race is hunting him from a fearful demon.

It mainly stems from Lu Xun sabotaging the demon race's plan to invade Lan Xing, causing the deaths of hundreds of thousands of demons who had entered Lan Xing's underground.

This plan had been brewing by the demon race for a long time, and those hundreds of thousands of demons were carefully selected.

It was originally flawless.

As it happened, Lu Xun happened to see it.

After the plan failed and the demon race learned it was Lu Xun who did it, they naturally hated him to the bone.

Moreover, Lu Xun's performance was truly heaven-defying, so the demon race now wishes to eliminate him as soon as possible.

The demon race's bounty is actually not just ten thousand Dark Energy, but also an opportunity to enter the Holy Hall.

The Holy Hall is, after all, the demon race's highest hall.

Naturally, this can move the Six Realms demon race.

"The incantation should be usable; use the Sword Heart Stone to break the demon formation, then forcefully charge again; if that fails, use the Heavenly Dao Talisman!"

After Lu Xun pondered for a while, he made a decision.

He cannot stay in this Spirit Realm indefinitely.

Otherwise, this place will become increasingly dangerous.

What if one day a Seven Realms demon appears?

The BUFF that nullifies the second effect of the Immobilization Spell will gradually dissipate over time.

It can now be used on blood demons again.

So, Lu Xun once again stealthily approaches the location of the passage.

Upon approaching there, Lu Xun used the Heavenly Dao Eye.

"Huh? Fu Xue?"

Upon looking, Lu Xun discovered that the area of the passage is currently erupting in a great battle.

Fu Xue appeared there at some unknown time; she in white clothes whiter than snow engaged in a great battle with a Six Realms blood demon.

"She actually came!"

Lu Xun was overjoyed.

He no longer hesitated, took out the Golden Toad and jumped onto it.

"Little Gold, hurry."

"Ribbit."

The Golden Toad leapt forward, rushing toward the battlefield.

As soon as Fu Xue appeared, needless to say, the other three Six Realms are about to arrive.

Her strength is extremely great; facing four opponents she might not lose, but wanting to kill a Six Realm is extremely difficult.

So, Lu Xun wants to take advantage of their not having arrived yet to first deal with this blood demon.

After these demons have chased Lu Xun for several days, not killing one would be unsatisfying.

Lu Xun himself cannot kill it.

Or can he not borrow a knife to kill?

"She must have come especially for me, right?"

Lu Xun speculated.

He felt that this was the only possibility.

Otherwise, what in a Five-Star Spirit Realm could attract Fu Xue?

In a Five-Star Spirit Realm, there are also good things, such as that mass of innate spiritual energy.

But who can guarantee?

The blood demon entered, or was summoned as reinforcements.

Moreover, the timing is too coincidental.

Therefore, Fu Xue could only have come for Lu Xun.

"She still cares about me quite a bit."

Lu Xun has long since stopped resisting Fu Xue as he once did.

This teacher, whose outward demeanor is as cold as ice, still cares about him quite a bit.

In his contemplation, the Golden Toad approached the battlefield.

"Roar!"

On the battlefield, the blood demon was roaring repeatedly from Fu Xue's strikes.

He... cannot defeat Fu Xue.

His strength is at the mid-stage of Six Realms, while Fu Xue is already at the peak of Six Realms.

Although he cannot defeat her, as a blood demon with many tricks, Fu Xue defeating him is not that quick.

As long as he persists, once reinforcements arrive, victory in this battle will ultimately belong to them.

In the battle, Fu Xue had already seen Lu Xun, her eyes slightly brightening.

"Don't come over."

Lu Xun still hadn't approached when he received her voice transmission.

Fu Xue was probably afraid Lu Xun would be caught up in it.

She still didn't know how much progress Lu Xun had made in these past few months.

Although he still couldn't defeat the Six Realms, Lu Xun could still manage a few moves against them and retreat safely.

"Teacher, I have a way to immobilize him. After immobilizing him, you'll have a chance to strike; if you seize it well, you might be able to kill him."

Lu Xun likewise sent a voice transmission.

Immobilize the Blood Demon?

Fu Xue recalled how, back in the Space Fortress, Lu Xun had immobilized those Six- and Seven-Realm Dark Beasts.

The means Lu Xun displayed then truly shocked Fu Xue.

She thought it was a one-time thing.

She hadn't expected Lu Xun could still use it.

However,

She only had one chance to strike.

Because the Immobilization Spell would automatically dispel if it came under attack.

Not just any attack would break it; the attack needed to reach a certain intensity.

This powerful Demon Race Blood Demon is not the same as the Dark Beasts.

Dark Beasts have no trump cards or the like; once immobilized they have no power to resist, and Fu Xue could easily kill them with a single strike.

The Blood Demon is different.

Its demon armor's defense is extraordinarily strong, not inferior to Lu Xun's Seven-Grade Treasure Clothing.

The blood-colored domain surrounding it also possesses extremely strong protective power.

Besides the demon armor and blood-colored domain, the Blood Demon likely has some other means.

For example, the Demon Race's favored demon patterns.

Etching demon patterns inside the body, forging one's own body to be like a magical treasure.

So, even if the Blood Demon is immobilized, wanting to kill it is still not easy.

In battles above the Six Realms, deciding victory or defeat is not difficult,

but killing... is hard!

Fu Xue isn't someone who has never killed a Six-Realm foreign race before, but that was after a bitter struggle, with both sides exhausting their trump cards, and Fu Xue finally slew it in one blow.

Now, this Blood Demon has companions, and her time is insufficient.

With her strength, she has faintly sensed that other Six-Realm beings are rushing over at high speed.

"We can only use our trump cards."

Fu Xue didn't want to let this opportunity slip.

She decided to use her trump card.

"Teacher, if we cooperate, perhaps we can kill him—you break his domain and protective demon aura, and I'll destroy his demon armor..."

Lu Xun transmitted again.

He wants to cooperate with himself?

If it were someone else, Fu Xue wouldn't even have the interest to look down on them.

A being below the Six Realms, cooperating with her to kill a Six-Realm demon race.

Isn't that a joke?

But since Lu Xun said that, Fu Xue decided to give it a try.

"Okay."

She replied to Lu Xun.

"All right, then I'm coming over."

Lu Xun patted the Golden Toad.

"Ribbit."

The Golden Toad leapt up and lunged toward the battlefield.

"Brat, you still dare to come!"

Seeing Lu Xun, the Blood Demon's anger flared up.

These past few days, Lu Xun has left those several Six-Realm beings helpless, playing them around in circles.

Therefore, even while fighting Fu Xue, the Blood Demon suddenly shot out an object.

That was a demon pearl capable of threatening a Six-Realm being.

"Boom!"

Fu Xue was about to intercept when the Golden Toad suddenly shot out its tongue and detonated the pearl prematurely.

"When did he get such a powerful spirit puppet?"

Fu Xue was somewhat surprised.

Looking at this, Lu Xun must have had many fortunate encounters in the Ancient Road Node.

And he actually has such a powerful spirit puppet.

The spirit puppet she originally gave Lu Xun had hardly any combat power; it was purely for scouting the path.

After Lu Xun obtained the Golden Toad, he rarely used it.

"Teacher, get ready."

After the Golden Toad drew nearer, Lu Xun transmitted.

Good.

Fu Xue replied with a single word, then covertly readied an object, storing power for release.

Now.

After finishing his mental transmission, Lu Xun directly cast the spell.

The ferocious blood demon was instantly immobilized.

This time, the immobilization spell's hold on him will be greatly shortened.

First, even if several days have passed, the duration will still be shortened.

Second, the blood demon is in a state of full power, so breaking free from the immobilization will be faster.

But even so, it will still last a few seconds.

Enough.

Fu Xue and Lu Xun simultaneously launched their attacks.

Lu Xun simultaneously launched several attacks.

First, the flying sword, which is used to break armor.

Fu Xue only needs to break the blood-colored domain, then shake off the demonic protective aura on the demon armor, and Lu Xun's flying sword can cut through that armor.

No matter how hard that demon armor is, Lu Xun's flying sword contains divine bone ash.

That broken holy weapon was also used by Lu Xun as a flying sword.

Besides the flying sword, Lu Xun also used the Sword Heart Stone, simultaneously unleashing Thunder God's Wrath.

Prior to that, Lu Xun had taken a short-term battle-boosting pill, and also used Barbara's spell that can double, then double again, and double once more his combat power.

In short, he used whatever he had.

On Fu Xue's side, her sword light hung like an inverted galaxy.

She merged with her sword, and in an instant the three thousand six hundred sword lights she cut wove in the void into a heavenly net and earthly trap.

These sword lights were blindingly bright, causing the light of nearby stars to pale under this ultimate sword intent.

There are several stars in this Spirit Realm, but this planet is not as fortunate as the Scarlet Flame Continent; it has been torn apart by stellar gravity.

In an instant, heaven and earth changed color!

Their attacks fell one after another on Blood Ming.

Fu Xue's sword lights stacked together, instantly shattering the blood-colored domain around Blood Ming, and struck him directly.

Boom!

The demonic protective aura clinging to Blood Ming's demon armor trembled and burst apart.

Immediately after, Lu Xun's flying sword arrived, slicing through Blood Ming's astonishingly strong demon armor, and the holy weapon followed, piercing his chest.

Then even more of Fu Xue's sword lights came.

The Sword Heart Stone's attack likewise arrived.

No!

Blood Ming cried out in shock.

Actually, the immobilization spell had already been broken when he suffered the first sword-light attack.

But at that moment, the other attacks arrived almost simultaneously.

Even though Blood Ming was a Six Realm expert, he didn't have time to deploy any other trump cards.

Numerous attacks enveloped Blood Ming.

This Six Realm Blood Demon's body, like a sand sculpture weathered for ten thousand years, crumbled bit by bit in their burst of attacks.

Perfect!

This coordination was truly perfect.

An extremely hard-to-kill Six Realm Blood Demon was thus instantly slain by the two of them.
