Chapter 497: Chi Sha Yao Huang Falls for the Trick

Enter this dream; after you learn it, notify me.

Seeing Lu Xun finally agree, Gu Yao let out a sigh of relief.

With a flick of her slender finger, she tossed out a bubble-like dream and then left.

Lu Xun's thought moved, and he delved into that dream.

This dream is an endlessly repeating dream, inside it Gu Yao repeatedly demonstrates the Myriad Blood True Solution to Lu Xun.

"Interesting."

Lu Xun found it interesting.

Gu Yao was indeed worthy of being a demon immortal.

Although she is a demon, she is also an immortal, possessing many methods.

For example, this ability to manipulate dreams.

Lu Xun began studying the Myriad Blood True Solution in this dream.

After studying it a few times, he could then grasp its subtlety.

The Myriad Blood True Solution, this bloodline secret art, actually mainly depends on oneself.

If one's own bloodline is poor, no matter how well one learns the Myriad Blood True Solution, it's useless.

Even a clever woman cannot cook without rice.

Even if you cook the meal well, without rice, what can you cook?

But if one's own bloodline is strong, the effect this secret art can exert is astonishing.

And the primordial ancient blood that Lu Xun obtained happens to be the strongest kind of bloodline.

Once Lu Xun comes out of the dream, he will have basically learned the Myriad Blood True Solution.

If he cultivates, whether talent or comprehension, both are top-notch.

"Junior apprentice, you've awakened."

Ran Bing saw Lu Xun wake up and showed a smile.

"Senior apprentice, thank you."

"I should be the one thanking you; junior apprentice, go ahead without worry, I'll be with you!"

"Mm!"

Lu Xun lightly nodded.

That night, Lu Xun did not leave, but spent the night together with Ran Bing.

The next day, through Ran Bing's dream, Lu Xun saw Gu Yao again.

"You learned it this quickly?"

Gu Yao was somewhat surprised.

"Is it difficult?"

Lu Xun countered.

Gu Yao was left speechless by the question.

The Myriad Blood True Solution is indeed very difficult.

However, upon thinking of Lu Xun's various unreasonable aspects, Gu Yao could also understand.

Even with her past-life demon immortal's vision, she could not see through Lu Xun.

"I've already chosen the location; it's in your 189th Spirit Realm, which is an eight-star Spirit Realm. The terrain inside is suitable for laying formations, and I have set up a trapping formation there. After a week, you enter again and lure Chi Sha over."

Gu Yao spoke of the plan.

"Good."

Lu Xun had no objection.

During this week, it's just right to become more familiar with the Myriad Blood True Solution.

The two did not communicate much; after a brief chat, the conversation in this dream ended.

"She seems to know formations as well... No wonder Ran Bing picks up formations so quickly."

Lu Xun recalled the speed at which Ran Bing learned the Formation True Solution, and couldn't help but speculate.

Unfortunately, these days Ran Bing has been busy cultivating, with no extra time to study formations, so Lu Xun's attainment in formations has not made much progress.

"What if we give the Formation True Solution to Gu Yao?"

Lu Xun suddenly had this idea.

That Formation True Solution is not simple; if fully mastered, one can even set up formations of rank ten and above.

I don't know what rank Gu Yao's formation attainment is at.

Lu Xun put these matters aside for now.

After we settle the Chi Sha Yao Huang this time, we'll talk about it later.

A week's time quickly passed.

During this week, since Lu Xun had been in the East, nothing untoward happened.

On Lan Xing, the witches still dare not act openly.

The current Lu Xun, however, is a key protection target of the East.

Of course, in the dark, she has acted more than once.

For example, she again cast some curses or the like, but they had no effect on Lu Xun.

Lu Xun still dared not sleep, fearing being dragged into another nightmare.

That day, Lu Xun entered the 189th Spirit Realm together with Ran Bing.

Now, among the many bound targets, Ran Bing instead knows Lu Xun's secrets the most.

This Spirit Realm is rather special.

The entire Spirit Realm is composed of a large number of giant mountains floating in space.

These giant mountains range from a few thousand kilometers in height for the smaller ones to over a hundred thousand kilometers for the larger ones.

They are arranged in a regular pattern, with the larger ones in the middle and the smaller ones on the outside, forming neat concentric circles.

A Spirit Realm of this form naturally makes one suspect it is the handiwork of some powerful being.

Some powerful individuals speculate that this should be a grand heavenly-earthly array laid down by a skilled formation master from ancient times.

However, as time passed, the grand array lost its effect, leaving only these giant mountains.

"Impressive."

Lu Xun, being an eighth-grade formation master, upon entering, found that these giant mountains indeed resemble part of a heavenly-earthly array.

I don't know whose handiwork it is.

No wonder Gu Yao chose this place as the battlefield.

If her formation attainment is high enough, she can make use of the original heavenly-earthly array, achieving twice the result with half the effort.

It seems Gu Yao has long been plotting to deal with Chi Sha Yao Huang.

But she never had much confidence, and she didn't want to use even a trace of immortal power, so she sought out Lu Xun.

"Senior sister, let's go explore first."

"Mm!"

Lu Xun did not try to seek out Gu Yao.

Gu Yao had already hidden herself.

To trick Chi Sha Yao Huang into being caught, she cannot leave the slightest trace; otherwise, once Chi Sha Yao Huang notices anything abnormal and becomes wary, killing him would become even harder.

Not many alien beings are active in this Spirit Realm.

In an eight-star Spirit Realm, basically those at the Eighth Realm are active.

There are also some who are bold, or whose strength has reached the peak of the Seventh Realm, who venture in.

Star-space alien species are themselves easier to deal with than cultivators; some powerful peak Seventh Realm cultivators can handle Eighth Realm alien species.

When Lu Xun observed through the Heavenly Dao Eye, he actually discovered some alien beings, even humans, active.

He did not cause any unnecessary complications.

"Here they come!"

Almost ten days later, Lu Xun felt a premonition in his heart.

Chi Sha Yao Huang should have come in pursuit.

"Senior sister, let's go!"

Lu Xun took Ran Bing and lunged toward a direction.

That place is where Gu Yao set up a trapping formation.

To make the act more convincing, the spot Gu Yao chose happened to have precious heavenly-earthly spiritual materials.

When Lu Xun arrived there, a large horde of star-space alien species attacked.

After Lu Xun stored Ran Bing in the internal space Barbara's side, he then unleashed his Dharma form to clear out these alien species.

As if noticing nothing at all.

In the darkness, blood-colored vines were spreading wildly in the subspace.

By the time Lu Xun had dealt with all the star-space alien species, the blood-colored vines had already completely engulfed him.

But Chi Sha Yao Huang did not rush to act.

Having failed to detain Lu Xun last time, Chi Sha Yao Huang naturally learned a lesson.

He employed more means.

It was like a colorless, odorless plague.

This is something Chi Sha Yao Huang obtained at great cost from a Nine Realm Rat Emperor.

Ordinary plagues naturally have no effect on cultivators.

But this is the Rat Emperor's great killer.

This plague is hard to detect not only with the naked eye but also with spiritual sense.

They spread silently.

Once contaminated, even a Ninth Realm cultivator would be greatly weakened.

This is Chi Sha Yao Huang's trump card this time.

As long as Lu Xun is weakened by the plague, he can then strike in one go and capture Lu Xun.

"Huh?"

Lu Xun, who was transplanting spiritual plants, sensed an abnormality.

Something had entered his body.

But because Lu Xun possesses a Glazed Body, these invisible, intangible things that are hard to detect even with spiritual sense were directly purified.

This is the bug of the Glazed Body.

"Is this your trump card?"

Lu Xun's face remained calm, but inside he sneered.

Chi Sha Yao Huang's methods this time are extremely troublesome for others.

Yet he happened to encounter Lu Xun.

Even without the Glazed Body, Lu Xun, relying on his Chaotic Divine Body, would not necessarily fear what he releases.

Lu Xun did not deliberately slow his actions; instead, as normal, he put things away and then prepared to leave.

"Want to leave?"

"Chi Sha Yao Huang finally managed to corner Lu Xun once, and decided to launch."

"Boom—"

"Instantly, countless blood-colored vines surged out from the subspace, surrounding Lu Xun."

"Lu Xun, we meet again."

"Then, he held a high‑footed cup, a faint smile on his face, and walked out step by step."

"In Chi Sha Yao Huang's view, Lu Xun, who had contracted the Rat Emperor's plague, could not escape this time no matter what."
