Chapter 369

~12 min read 2,304 words

Although Lin Jue's "soul-destroying art" was just getting started and its power was still very weak and not skilled enough, he had already discovered that this magical art was indeed the nemesis of the soul-shifting art.

As long as this magical art was used to break the enemy, all statues, whether bronze or iron, or stone or wooden, regardless of size, were treated equally.

Pull out the soul and destroy it instantly.

Only the statues with dense spiritual aura on their bodies seemed to have been refined for a longer time, and the soul in them was more closely attached to the statue, so the process of pulling it out was more laborious.

And no matter what kind of statue, regardless of size, as long as the soul in it was broken, it could no longer move.

And this was a root-cutting method—

Originally, there were more than ten thousand statues of all sizes in the mountain, but the Leopard King had not collected so many souls. It could neither make all these statues come back to life, nor did it need to do so, because even if all ten thousand statues came to life to fight Lin Jue and the others, only one or two thousand could actually fight, and the others could only be squeezed to the back.

Therefore, the number of statues that came to life each time was around one or two thousand, which was already all over the mountains and plains.

If Lin Jue and the others smashed them, as long as they couldn't destroy the soul in time and let it slip away, then next time it would just change to another statue, and it could still come to life.

Now, it was skipping the statue and destroying the soul directly.

Destroy one, and there would be one less.

Even if the statue was still there, it couldn't come to life again.

And this soul-destroying art was not only the nemesis of the soul-shifting art, but also the nemesis of the bean soldiers.

Not only carving beans into soldiers, but scattering beans into soldiers should also be like this.

Even gathering stones into generals and paper-cutting arts were like this.

The statues of the soul-shifting art had souls inside, the bean soldiers and paper soldiers had remnant souls inside, and gathering stones into generals was the spiritual wonder between heaven and earth, all of which could be detained and then destroyed.

Fortunately, not many people knew this magical art.

As a result, Lin Jue fought here every day, and his attainments in this magical art were also advancing by leaps and bounds.

On the first day he came here, he still needed to use both body and mind, making grabbing and pinching movements involuntarily when casting spells, which was essentially not skilled enough, using this to make himself more focused. Two or three days later, Lin Jue only needed to calm his mind and concentrate, cast spells silently, point a finger, and the spiritual light would go to detain the soul of the statue, and chanting the spell would kill it.

A few days later, he could almost detain souls from several statues at the same time, and the distance had also greatly increased.

Correspondingly, the demon king in the mountain became more and more afraid.

It was more frightened day by day, living in panic every day.

About ten days later.

Lin Jue still wanted to practice here, but the Leopard King was already alone, leaving only many statues, large and small, of all kinds, all of which remained intact in the mountain.

Years later, they might become a scenic spot for future generations.

I don't know if anyone will know then that someone was eliminating demons here today, someone was searching the mountains here, and someone was chasing the demon king all over the mountain.

"Awoo!!"

The leopard's roar resounded through the mountain forest.

A bronze leopard with a shoulder height of more than a zhang ran wildly in the mountain. Although it was not as light as before and not as swift as before, it was just as fierce, making a rumbling sound when stepping on the ground. The branches in the mountain were easily broken by it, and the streams and rivers were stepped on by it, splashing water several zhang high.

However, at this time, the mountain was full of people eliminating demons.

Some martial artists intended to stop it, but were knocked into the sky by it.

A long spear swept over, and with a hiss, a spark splashed out. A deep wound appeared on the bronze leopard's body, but it seemed to be unaware and continued to run wildly forward.

"Mountain God, help me!"

A huge rock rolled along the mountain body and crashed into the bronze leopard with a bang.

Even though the bronze leopard weighed ten thousand jin and had infinite strength, it was smashed to the side by this huge rock, fell to the ground, pushed out layers of mud, and stirred up stone chips flying everywhere.

However, as soon as it fell to the ground, it climbed up again.

A pair of eyes stared fixedly at the front.

"You Daoist!"

The bronze leopard smashed the mountain rocks, leaped into the air, and ran towards Lin Jue.

But it didn't expect that the mountain wind didn't help it, but helped Lin Jue.

The mountain wind carried the Daoist's body and dodged backward, light as if it had no weight, and its speed was far inferior to before, so it naturally couldn't catch up with that Daoist, and could only watch that "culprit" in its heart fly away gracefully.

Instead, two stone giants rushed over from the mountain forest behind Lin Jue, from his left and right sides.

One giant turned sideways and hit it with its shoulder.

Boom! An earth-shattering sound, stone chips splashing everywhere.

A stone giant raised its stone arm high, waving its fist, and smashed it down towards its head.

"Bang!"

Such a large stone arm was actually smashed to pieces.

There were many arrows shooting over, hitting it, ding-ding-dang-dang, but it couldn't even count as scratching an itch.

Just at this time, only hearing the Daoist shout loudly:

"Come out for me!"

A spiritual light shot over, piercing into the bronze leopard.

The Leopard King only felt that this thing was like directly binding its soul, wanting to pull it out of the bronze leopard.

"Awoo!!"

The Leopard King struggled desperately, unwilling to follow his wishes.

The bronze leopard continued to step forward.

Lin Jue also stabilized his figure and magical power, going all out.

After all, it was the soul of a demon king. If it came to Dao practice, it was actually better than Lin Jue. Lin Jue's soul-destroying art was still difficult to count as profound, and it was difficult to pull it out directly.

Just at this time, Daoist Jiang walked over quickly.

Seeing her holding a sword in one hand and pushing her palm in the other, thunder light flashed instantly and hit into the bronze leopard.

"Pipa!"

The Leopard King instantly felt its soul tremble.

Coupled with many Daoists, martial artists, and strange people gathering one after another...

The Leopard King was more and more frightened, gritted its teeth to break free from the shackles on its body, but didn't dare to stay in this body anymore, but turned into a stream of light and left.

"Want to run?"

"Chase!"

The crowd didn't hesitate and chased after it closely.

In panic, the Leopard King had long lost the demeanor of a demon king, and only had the thought of escaping in its heart, not even daring to turn back to fight.

But the divine general had already set up a mystery here, making it unable to run out. "Humph!"

Lin Jue held his sword in one hand, passed by the huge bronze leopard statue, chased after the stream of light running wildly in front, and couldn't help but say: "You beast! Didn't you want my life a few days ago?"

A five-tailed white fox rushed out from the right.

"Brush..."

The stream of light turned instantly and escaped to the left.

On the left stood a man, who opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of surging hot spiritual fire.

The stream of light turned again, narrowly avoiding it.

But it didn't expect that above the stone on the side, a short and thin man stood with a lantern, blowing countless sparks towards the lantern, rushing towards it like a flood.

"Husheng Husheng Zhenjun, save me!

"General Evil Bandit!

"General Angry Thief!

"Come quickly to save my life!"

!. Read

The Leopard King finally couldn't help it and started calling the names of the divine beings.

As soon as it opened its mouth, Daoist Jiang chased up. She held a sword in one hand and pushed forward with the other, pushing out thunder fire.

With a pipa sound! The stream of light trembled again!

"Husheng Husheng Zhenjun, come quickly to save me!

"My life is over!"

"Shut up!" Daoist Jiang scolded expressionlessly, "You are a demon, how can you have anything to do with divine beings? Why don't you accept your death quickly!"

After saying that, she pointed a finger, and thunder descended directly from the sky.

"Pipa!"

The stream of light couldn't help but dim a lot.

The sky was quiet, and no divine being came.

The Leopard King had to escape into the cave.

Lin Jue didn't hesitate and rushed into it with his sword.

Now he was not afraid of it at all.

Besides having the soul-destroying art in hand, which was its nemesis, it was also because this thing didn't grasp the timing and abandoned its own skills, losing that bronze leopard shell.

It's funny to say—

This bronze leopard shell was prepared by it for itself. It must have been inferior to its original great demon body, but because it was cast in bronze, Lin Jue's best "flowers blooming in an instant" couldn't do anything to it. If it had dared to rush down from the mountain and attack Lin Jue when Lin Jue first entered here to find it, perhaps it would have had a few chances of winning.

But it neither knew the weakness of "flowers blooming in an instant" nor was it beaten by Lin Jue, dragging it until now, it had already walked to a dead end.

"Husheng Husheng Zhenjun! Husheng Husheng Zhenjun!!"

The demon king's soul stream of light was dim, and while shuttling in the cave, it shouted loudly, gradually becoming hoarse.

I don't know which Husheng Husheng Zhenjun it was calling, but no divine being responded to it.

Lin Jue thought it was the same—

Divine beings are gods after all, and they have to pay more attention to morality and etiquette than officials. Even if the Heavenly Lord is the Great Emperor of the Three Teachings, he is still within the constraints of etiquette and morality, not to mention that there are four Heavenly Venerables above.

This demon must have a backer, but even if it has a backer, how many divine beings dare to come out to respond to it at this time?

Between chasing and fleeing, there was suddenly light in front.

The cave was accessible in all directions, and it actually reached an exit again.

"Come back for me!"

Lin Jue pinched the spell and cast the art, pulling forward.

The spiritual light rushed out, and the stream of light in front was instantly bound, flying much more difficultly.

The next moment, a huge white fox drilled out from the ground and spat a mouthful of flames at it.

"Ah!!"

It was truly a scream squeezed from the depths of the soul.

But this demon also had a ruthless streak, actually crashing out of the golden flames directly, flying out of the cave with sparks all over its body.

"Husheng Husheng Zhenjun, save me!!"

Lin Jue immediately followed and chased out.

But his steps paused.

He didn't expect that above the sky outside, there was an extra cloud at some point, and on the cloud stood two divine generals and many celestial soldiers.

The stream of light brushed and flew straight to the sky.

The fox soon arrived behind Lin Jue, and Lord Luo and Daoist Jiang followed closely, all stopping their steps and looking up at the cloud layer in the sky.

Lin Jue guessed wrong—

There was actually a divine being who dared to show up at this time!

At the same time, there was a sound of footsteps behind him, and more people eliminating demons rushed out of the cave, coming behind Lin Jue.

"What's wrong?"

"Where did the celestial soldiers come from?"

"Where is that demon?"

"Was it taken by the celestial soldiers?"

The crowd talked one after another, discussed for a while, and gradually quieted down.

Only to see the clouds in the sky rolling, with thousands of celestial soldiers above, and two divine generals with broad shoulders and round waists, in silver armor, which made them look tall and burly, standing on the edge of the cloud layer, looking down.

Only hearing a thunderous voice explode:

"Who is here catching demons below?"

The crowd looked at each other, some curious, some puzzled, some blank, but most were not afraid.

Lin Jue was frowning, his face looking bad.

It seems that this demon was really released by a divine being.

What kind of divine being could do such a thing?

And he already had a bad premonition in his heart.

This kind of thing is really familiar.

Such a plot, could it be that it is going to be staged here with me today?

The Daoist's hand had already gripped the long sword.
