Chapter 429: and translation of chapter title

Fine, hurry up and separate.

Lu Xun hadn't really been counting on Gu Yao either.

If he had to solve it himself, then he would solve it himself.

It's not like he had no way.

Actually, Gu Yao drawing immortal power into his body, Lu Xun secretly felt a bit of anticipation,

What if, after Gu Yao drew that immortal power into his body, it could trigger the system's return?

The problem is, Lu Xun doesn't dare to gamble.

The system's return is triggered only when the bound target achieves a breakthrough, or shows clear progress or gain.

If Gu Yao draws immortal power into his body to attack, and it's not judged as a gain but rather as using external force, the system might not return it.

This point is somewhat different from Gu Yao using demonic power to raise his cultivation.

Furthermore, Lu Xun's use of demonic power is quite primitive; although he possesses Eight Realms demonic power, he lacks the corresponding application methods, so in a real fight, that power absolutely cannot achieve Eight Realms combat strength.

The same principle applies,

If Lu Xun were actually given immortal power, he wouldn't know how to use it.

By then, if Gu Yao were to shatter the Nine Tribulations Demon-Sealing Array and then slay Chi Sha Yao Huang, he would very likely turn his hand against Lu Xun.

Even if Lu Xun obtained immortal power, he might still not be a match for Gu Yao.

So Lu Xun's choice is: don't gamble!

He still has a way.

duo bu mi bi *&（*...

Lu Xun, while fleeing with the Instant Character Technique, began chanting a long string of incantations.

Useless?

After a moment, Lu Xun found that this string of incantations was useless.

Again!

He changed some syllables and continued chanting.

After chanting it repeatedly several times, the incantation still had no effect.

Where did it go wrong?

Lu Xun furrowed his brows and began to think.

What he was chanting was Babala's Banishment Spell.

Lu Xun had seen Babala use that Banishment Spell once.

But Babala had never taught it to Lu Xun.

Lu Xun wanted to unleash it through Chaotic Power.

Once the Banishment Spell took effect, Lu Xun could instantly distance himself.

No matter where he was banished to, as long as he escaped Chi Sha Yao Huang, Lu Xun could use the Heavenly Dao Talisman to return to Lan Xing.

Again~

Lu Xun refused to believe it, and continued chanting.

Lu Xun already had a fairly good understanding of Babala's spell.

Each syllable of that spell has a unique pronunciation.

Strictly speaking, its pronunciation is not through the mouth, but through vibrating magical power to produce sound.

In Lu Xun's case, that is Chaotic Power.

He tried over and over.

Behind him, Chi Sha Yao Huang pursued relentlessly, the distance between them continually closing.

Chi Sha Yao Huang was not using a flying craft.

Ordinary flying craft cannot match the speed of the Nine Realms.

Unless the flying craft is given sufficient acceleration time.

In the void of space, without stellar or planetary gravity influencing them, some star-sea vessels, if constantly accelerating, can even reach sub-light speed.

Lu Xun's star-sea vessel in hand had long since been replaced with a new one, its speed astonishingly fast.

But with Chi Sha Yao Huang sticking to him, there was simply no time to give it acceleration.

Lu Xun could only rely on the Instant Character Technique to continually pull away.

He no longer tried to enter the Spirit Realm, but instead began circling it, playing a cat-and-mouse game with Chi Sha Yao Huang.

He's actually quite cunning.

Chi Sha Yao Huang, upon discovering this, was not in a hurry.

From beginning to end, he regarded Lu Xun as a reincarnation of Gu Yao.

Lu Xun's such caution, not entering the fragile starry heavens, was unexpected to Chi Sha Yao Huang.

Let's see how long you can hold out.

He suddenly surged forward, speed increasing further.

As a Nine Realms expert, Chi Sha Yao Huang could tell that Lu Xun was using some sort of speed-related secret technique.

Such secret techniques are indeed powerful, but they often have limitations on usage duration or consumption.

It's like Lu Xun unleashing a big move while he only uses a basic attack.

Chi Sha Yao Huang naturally isn't afraid.

He has already used the Demon-Slaying Talisman to seal the four directions, locking down this Spirit Realm, so Lu Xun cannot leave via the Heavenly Dao Talisman.

The Demon-Slaying Talisman is Yao Xing's countermeasure against the Heavenly Dao Talisman.

Heavenly Dao Talismans are not uncommon at the demon sovereign level, but Demon-Slaying Talismans on Yao Xing can only be used by demon sovereigns.

For Chi Sha Yao Huang, it is also quite rare.

In order to obtain Gu Yao, Chi Sha Yao Huang spared no expense.

duo ba mi bi *&（*...

Lu Xun continued to repeatedly use the Banishment Curse.

Over and over.

Yet he never succeeded.

This made him somewhat miss Barbara.

Barbara hadn't awakened for over two years.

Once his strength increases further, Lu Xun must find a way to help Barbara deal with the witch's threat.

"Want to block me?"

From time to time, Lu Xun would glance around with the Heavenly Dao Eye.

Each time, Lu Xun only needed to look for one or two seconds to get a rough scan of the surroundings.

He didn't need to examine things in great detail; he only needed to pay attention to the movements of the Eighth and Ninth Realms.

Chi Sha Yao Huang had obviously summoned reinforcements.

Besides himself, there were three Eighth Boundary Heavenly Demon Kings also surrounding him.

The speed of the Eighth Boundary Heavenly Demon Kings was likewise extremely fast.

One of them, skilled in space, was even faster than the other two.

Fortunately, the Instant Character Technique that Lu Xun obtained from the Fu Family was truly heaven-defying.

This Instant Character Technique is still the complete version.

This is what allowed Lu Xun to face an encirclement by one Ninth Realm and three Eighth Realm beings with ease.

"No wonder it's Gu Yao; he's quite good at escaping!"

After chasing for a day, Chi Sha Yao Huang still couldn't catch up to Lu Xun.

Several times, it seemed they were about to grab Lu Xun, but he instantly opened a distance of several hundred li.

On Lu Xun's side,

he had not yet managed to try out the Banishment Curse.

Gu Yao, on the other hand, was very patient and had not sent any more voice transmissions to Lu Xun.

Her Twin Soul Derivation Technique still needed time.

Splitting into two sounds simple, but putting it into practice is not so easy.

"These guys..."

A new problem arose.

As time passed, more and more demons entered this Spirit Realm.

As a demon sovereign, Chi Sha Yao Huang's subordinates numbered immensely.

These subordinates were setting up demon formations one after another in this Spirit Realm; these formations shot up into the sky, their purpose being to divide the heaven and earth of the Spirit Realm in order to slow Lu Xun's speed.

If it were a larger Spirit Realm, even Chi Sha Yao Huang would be powerless.

Fortunately, this Spirit Realm is not large.

These demon formations always have some effect.

Besides the demon formations, the Heavenly Demon King under Chi Sha Yao Huang who possesses spatial abilities also began laying spatial traps, aiming to compress the space through which Lu Xun can teleport to the minimum.

"Why isn't it working yet!"

Another day passed, and Lu Xun's situation grew increasingly difficult.

He somewhat wanted to lift the curse on Barbara.

But in the end, Lu Xun still held back.

"Try again!"

Just thinking that Gu Yao was probably waiting to see his joke made Lu Xun refuse to believe in evil.

duo ba mi bi *&(*...

After casting it once again.

Finally.

A black hole suddenly appeared and instantly devoured Lu Xun.

Lu Xun thus disappeared from the spot.

"How is this possible!!!"

Just a few seconds later, Chi Sha Yao Huang rushed to Lu Xun's location.

When he discovered that Lu Xun had vanished without a trace, Chi Sha Yao Huang's handsome face was instantly filled with intense anger.

"Roar!"

After another few dozen seconds, a Heavenly Demon King with a single horn on his head let out an earth-shaking roar.

"Rhino Demon King, your son was killed by him; use the Blood Soul Pursuit Death Technique—track him down, and I will avenge you."

Chi Sha Yao Huang looked at that one-horned Heavenly Demon King.

The One-Horned Great Demon King that Lu Xun had killed earlier was precisely this Heavenly Demon King's son.

They belong to the Rhino Demon Clan.

The Rhino Demon Clan has a rather eccentric temperament, few in number, lacking a demon sovereign, and had often been oppressed by other clans that possessed demon sovereigns, so they had allied themselves with Chi Sha Yao Huang.

"Roar! He can't get away!"

The Rhino Demon King's eyes burned with vengeful fire.

The Yao clan values bloodline, and from bloodline naturally arose some secret techniques.

For example, the Blood Soul Chase Life Technique.

If someone kills a close relative of theirs who shares the same bloodline, such as their children, they can use this secret technique to track down the killer.

Even across the vast starry sky, as an Eighth Boundary Heavenly Demon King, the Rhino Demon King can still have a rough sense.

"Again near a black hole?"

On the other side.

Lu Xun, who had been swallowed by a black hole, appeared again near a black hole.

This made Lu Xun wonder whether these black holes were some kind of passage in the universe.

Feeling the black hole's astonishing gravitational pull, Lu Xun had no intention of going to investigate.

This thing, not even light can escape from it.

If it isn't, once Lu Xun gets sucked in, it's game over.

After flying far away, Lu Xun took out the Star Sea Vessel.

"How much longer do you have?"

He wasn't in a hurry to return to Lan Xing, planning to wait until Gu Yao's side was settled before speaking.

Otherwise, if he returned to Lan Xing and Gu Yao's side stirred up trouble again, that would be bad.

"At least seven days."

Gu Yao sent a mental message.

She was somewhat surprised.

Lu Xun actually managed to escape.

What he used was still a rare method.

Gu Yao, well-informed and knowledgeable, knew this kind of method.

But why could Lu Xun perform it?

This made Lu Xun seem extraordinarily mysterious in the eyes of Gu Yao, this demon immortal.

"Then we'll return to Lan Xing when the time comes."

Lu Xun had made a decision.

These few days, there's nothing much going on anyway.

Lu Xun then rode the Star Sea Vessel and began exploring the starry sky.

This region is relatively empty, but ahead one can see a star in the process of forming.

According to normal timescales, this star still needs at least several hundred thousand years to fully form.

It probably doesn't have that time.

Because this newborn star has already been caught by the black hole's gravity and is continually moving closer to it.

At their current distance, it will be swallowed by the black hole in at most tens of thousands of years.

"Huh?"

Upon further approaching that star, Lu Xun suddenly discovered that many space-borne exotic creatures were devouring the flames around it.

"This is... an Elemental Star?"

Lu Xun's eyes lit up.

This star differs from other stars in that it contains a vast amount of fire element, which is why it attracted vast numbers of space-borne exotic creatures.

"Haha, call me the Son of Fortune!"

Lu Xun showed a look of joy.

The fortune boost he gained indeed proved useful; a casual banishment spell unexpectedly brought him an adventure, banishing him to the vicinity of a rare Elemental Star.

For Lu Xun, the greatest use of this Elemental Star is that it can be used to strengthen the Little Phoenix!

The Little Phoenix actually gains limited benefits on an ordinary planet.

But the fire element within the Elemental Star is practically a supreme tonic for the Phoenix.

Combined with Lu Xun's Phoenix Flame, it can greatly boost the Phoenix's strength.
