Walking alone with a sword, slaying ghosts and gods

Chapter 180: Finally Arrived at Biyun Cave

The sea and sky in the southeastern waters are boundless and the area is so vast that there is not even an island or a reef.

Fortunately, monks have basic abilities in determining the sun's direction and observing the night sky, so even if they are alone, they don't need to worry about getting lost.

Of course, this refers to normal areas.

If you fly further southeast from the southeast sea, you will reach the end of the world at the end of the world in the Tongxuan Realm.

Flying further outwards, one would reach the Jueling Sea. Once a cultivator enters it, his spiritual energy and magic power would not be replenished. Once the elixirs and spiritual objects on his body were exhausted, he would be trapped in the Jueling Sea and die.

From ancient times to the present, no cultivator has been able to cross the Jueling Sea and return successfully.

If Lu Cheng's cultivation of Taoism reaches the limit and there is no further progress, he might force his way into the Jueling Sea and explore the world outside this realm.

However, when his Taoist practice was still in the stage of vigorous and diligent progress, even Lu Cheng did not have the heart to waste his life.

Life is the most precious thing, and monks value life even more and hate death.

Two balls of light, one black and one white, enveloped Lu Cheng and carried him flying rapidly over the vast ocean towards the location of the Biyun Cave.

The Yin-Yang Domain has the effect of restraining spiritual consciousness. In addition, Lu Cheng practiced the Tianyi True Art with eight landscapes, and his own Qi was in harmony with nature, so he would not be able to sense it.

But just because it doesn’t attract the spiritual sense of human cultivators doesn’t mean it won’t attract the attention of the monsters in the sea.

On this day, in front of me was a vast, turbulent sea. Layers of sea water surged in and shattered each other with a loud bang. At this moment, a long, winding wave was approaching rapidly.

"Swish, swish..." accompanied by the sharp sound of scales rubbing against each other, a fishy wind blew.

"Snake?" Lu Cheng, who was originally sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed in meditation in the Yin-Yang Domain, suddenly had this thought in his mind and opened his eyes.

With a "boom", the speed of the monster far exceeded that of the tide. The explosive speed broke the incoming waves first, and a huge blue snake head emerged from it, with its sharp hooked fangs biting towards Lu Cheng's waist.

At the critical moment, Lu Cheng's body suddenly flew up in the sword light, and the Yin-Yang domain crashed into the snake's body with a dull bang, but it was not a physical entity but a ball of light, so it was not damaged.

When the attack missed, the snake swung its body to gain leverage, and bounced up like a whip, opening its bloody mouth to chase and bite, relentlessly pursuing.

"It seems that we have reached the Hualongyuan Sea. The monsters are extremely hostile to humans and have become cannibals."

The sword light climbed and moved sideways, and Lu Cheng dodged it again. When he passed by, five-colored sword lights of green, red, white, yellow, and black appeared, and Yi Mu divine thunder, fire waves, ice air, golden needles, falling rocks... Countless five-element sword energy mixed with magic swallowed up the entire giant snake.

With one swing of the sword, the mountains and rivers shook, the heaven and earth changed, and the five elements all arrived. With Lu Cheng's current realm, he had already reached the realm of using the sword to perform magic and launch it at the same time.

Rumble, rumble, however, the giant snake was still extremely ferocious despite the sword energy and magic, charging through and biting.

Although he already knew that the fourth-level flying sword would not be of much use when performing sword magic, but looking at the giant sea snake in front of him with no damage to its armor, Lu Cheng still couldn't help but admire the demon cultivator's strong physique.

Except for those with sufficient dragon blood and extraordinary talents, many monsters have cultivated to the level of Condensing Evil, Refining Gang, and even Golden Core, but their intelligence is still insufficient. Although they are smarter than their own kind, they are still far inferior to human cultivators.

However, they obey their own bloodline class and follow the orders of the dragons in Hualongyuan, and actively attack human cultivators who enter Hualongyuan. It is impossible to count how many high-level monsters are hidden in this vast sea. I am afraid that even the Jindan dragons that have allied with the three overseas demons cannot be sure.

Fortunately, their ability to influence the monsters in Hualongyuan is limited, and they are unable to lead them to form a monster army and move away from Hualongyuan. Otherwise, there would be no place for human cultivators to survive in the southeastern sea area.

Although the sword technique of the Five Elements Sword Qi did not hurt the fifth-order demon snake, it achieved its purpose by blocking its attack for a moment and at the same time completely hurting and angering it.

"Hiss..." The giant snake in the sea spit out its tongue, riding the water mist and soaring into the sky. Its huge body, which was dozens of feet long, followed a curve and pounced from bottom to top, as if it wanted to trap Lu Cheng in its body and then use its snake coil to crush him into pieces of flesh and blood.

But this is exactly what Lu Cheng wanted. It would be much better for the other party to fly up and fight with him than to escape into the sea or to notify those dragon demon kings and pass on the message.

Lu Cheng waved his sleeves, and countless golden lights flew out from them. The vast swarm of insects rushed towards the snake formation and fought hard with the opponent at its strongest point.

"buzzing"

The huge blue sea snake body finally completed the snake coil and strangled fiercely. Bang, in the center of the huge snake group, a large piece of golden light burst and flew.

But the Golden Silkworm Gu, which is a hundred poisons, is also a wild and exotic species with infinite power. After a fierce fight between the two sides, Lu Cheng finally had the opportunity to escape.

Even if those poisonous golden silkworms were injured, they would not be killed immediately. Instead, Lu Cheng, who had escaped, raised his hand and swung down a golden branch, which hit the head of the fifth-level snake demon heavily.

Originally, when the snake demon saw Lu Cheng escaping, it was about to open its mouth to spit out poisonous mist, but it was hit heavily by the golden branch of falling treasures. When it raised its head in confusion, the purple poisonous mist that had condensed into a large amount of mist dissipated.

Although it did not cause any harm to itself, when it sprayed towards Lu Cheng again, Lu Cheng was already prepared and avoided it calmly.

"It's a pity that I don't have a fifth-level flying sword, so the explosive killing power is not enough. The Treasure-Losing Golden Branch and the Golden Silkworm Gu are OK against human cultivators, but they are a bit difficult to deal with demon cultivators."

Lu Cheng felt that he lacked the means, but his hands kept moving. He controlled the Golden Branch of Falling Treasures as a special sword and smashed down with one sword after another.

If Taoist Lin Chong were to be resurrected, he would probably die of heartache when he saw Lu Cheng wasting his own magical weapon like this.

Although this fifth-level giant sea snake has been practicing in the deep sea for thousands of years, its abilities include sneak attacks, snake coils, and deadly poison. It lacks any other means to fight against a cultivator like Lu Cheng who rarely makes mistakes and is good at fighting.

It was hit on the head and seven inches again and again, and the poisonous golden silkworm Gu had begun to bite open some of its scales and flesh, injecting venom into them.

Finally, after the rage, facing the fear of death, the demon snake began to flee into the sea below.

But golden clouds kept intercepting it and holding it high in the sky.

If the snake demon had been hiding in the sea, Lu Cheng would have found it difficult to kill it, but with murderous intent in his mind, he chose to fly into the air and chase it.

This doomed its fate. If Lu Cheng had not intentionally kept the super-level Taoist Five Elements Earthly True Fire, it would have been refined into nothingness by now.

The vast ocean is boundless. The fact that Lu Cheng had encountered Wu Lingjun being hunted down by the Shang family's uncle and nephew before was really Wu Lingjun's fate. She was still alive. The possibility of encountering a fifth-level monster in this sea area in a short period of time is extremely low.

"sizzle"

As time passed, the giant demon snake moved little by little to a position closer to the sea.

But he was already covered in wounds, and his head was almost deformed by the falling golden branch.

But at this moment, Lu Cheng in mid-air waved his sleeves, and a dark golden light enveloped and fell, encircling the huge demon snake, and then its originally huge body suddenly shrank and was swallowed into the Jiuli Ding.

However, Lu Cheng had no interest in training such a wild and untamed monster, so he threw it directly into the nest of the poisonous golden silkworm Gu in the Insect World and transformed it into nutrients for the birth of more golden silkworm Gu.

After doing all this, the Taoist's figure merged into the pure sword light again and fled away quickly. Although he had consciously suppressed the momentum of the fight and had not used the Five Elements Seal that controlled the vitality of heaven and earth, it was still safest to leave quickly as soon as possible.

After confirming that he had entered the Hualongyuan Sea, Lu Cheng became more careful, knowing that he could still fight against ordinary sea snakes and sea beasts if he encountered them.

However, if you encounter a Jindan monster like a dragon, you can only consider how to escape.

Fortunately, Lu Cheng's fortune did not fall to this level.

After carefully hiding themselves in the Yin-Yang Domain and making many twists and turns, they finally arrived at their destination, the Biyun Cave Mansion, after more than a month.

There are countless powerful monsters in the Hualongyuan Sea. Seven days ago, Lu Cheng encountered a sea crocodile with incredible magical powers.

Lu Cheng, who was traveling at night, noticed a place in the sea that looked like a tidal vortex of the vital energy of heaven and earth. He looked there and saw a huge sea crocodile swallowing the moonlight.

With just this one glance, Lu Cheng was exposed. The feeling in his heart made Lu Cheng realize in an instant that his Yin-Yang magic realm escape technique had been seen through.

But the sea crocodile seemed to think that absorbing the moonlight to cultivate its magic power was more important. Although it glanced at the Taoist, its cold eyes made him feel cold all over, but that was more like a warning than a murderous intent:
Go away now and don’t disturb me while I am practicing Taoism.

So, Lu Cheng rolled very smoothly.

Although this sea crocodile does not seem to have pure blood, it has been practicing for many years and its magic power is unfathomable. It is probably more terrifying than an ordinary golden elixir monster.

But at the same time, monsters like this are not under the control of the Dragon Demon King. The Dragon Demon King will fight to the death with those human cultivators. They practice Taoism in the deep sea and do not help or get involved.

"Grandma Jinhua is in the mansion. I am Lu Cheng, the ninth disciple of Master Huang Longzi from Guizang Mountain. I have come to pay my respects to you, senior. Please forgive me if I have disturbed your quiet cultivation."
