Confucian and Taoist scholar

Chapter 247 Kill them all

Lu Zheng stood where he was, his heart calm, and he quickly refined the elixir to restore some of his strength.

Seeing the beautiful woman stop, he said slowly, "Sir, you're not running away anymore? This doesn't seem like your style."

The beautiful woman felt humiliated when she heard this. After so many years of cultivation, this was the first time she had been made so embarrassed by a human being of a lower level.

The beautiful woman raised her hand, and several streams of demonic power shot into the ground.

Suddenly, the ground shook, and countless vines rushed towards Lu Zheng from the ground.

Lu Zheng waved his hand casually, and the Su Wu Festival was inserted in front of him, and a burst of righteousness was released.

Within a radius of three meters, the vines lost control and could not advance an inch.

"After hundreds of years of practice, is this all you have?" Lu Zheng asked curiously.

When the beautiful woman saw Lu Zheng take out another treasure, her expression changed.

The beautiful woman said calmly, "You don't need too many methods, as long as they are useful."

Lu Zheng agreed deeply with what he said and nodded, "That makes sense. I have killed many demons and ghosts before. You are really capable of hurting me."

Lu Zheng touched his forehead. The small wound had not healed yet, but it was no longer bleeding.

Veins bulged on the beautiful woman's forehead. She felt these words were sarcastic no matter how she listened to them.

She had a broken arm and was in such a miserable state, while Lu Zheng only had some minor injuries. He was clearly mocking her.

As soon as she thought of it, the vines quickly climbed up the surrounding trees.

The vines twisted and quickly broke the huge trees, smashing them towards Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng looked at the huge trees pressing down from all directions, quickly picked up the Su Wu Festival, and dodged.

Su Wu could resist the evil spirits in the cut vines, but he couldn't resist these big trees.

After a while, smoke and dust rose up.

Lu Zheng was standing on the branch of a fallen tree, looking at the beautiful woman from afar. "With your skills, it would be a waste of your talent if you didn't become a woodcutter."

"shut up!"

The beautiful woman was furious. Her figure turned into a shadow and she was close to Lu Zheng in the blink of an eye.

The beautiful woman raised her right arm, and the entire right arm split into two pieces, turning into solid vine whips that whipped towards Lu Zheng, stirring up gusts of wind.

Lu Zheng quickly stepped back, but the vines were so fast that some of them stuck to his clothes, tearing them apart in an instant and splashing a series of sparks.

"Ok?"

The beautiful woman sensed something was wrong with the touch, and when she looked closely, she discovered that Lu Zheng was still wearing a full set of inner armor, which could offset the powerful force she exerted.

She was very clear about her own strength, and it was not something that ordinary inner armor could withstand.

How many treasures does this person have... The beautiful woman was puzzled.

Lu Zheng quickly distanced himself from the enemy. The fourth-level demon was indeed different. When it got close to him, its body attacked so fast that he couldn't react in time.

While remaining alert, he took out the pill Yun Xiao had given him, poured out one and swallowed it.

All of a sudden, a strong medicinal power filled the body, and the spirit was shaken.

It is much more effective than the pills I brought with me just now.

Seeing that Lu Zheng took the opportunity to recover his strength, the beautiful woman approached Lu Zheng again.

Lu Zheng took out his long sword, and with the sword energy running wild, he chopped at the vines.

However, the sword energy had little effect when it struck the vines, and it was unable to stop the opponent's attack at all.

Lu Zheng fought and retreated, not giving the beautiful woman any chance to get close to him.

The beautiful woman saw Lu Zheng's weakness. There was a huge difference in realm between the two of them, and there was a gap in reaction speed.

As the fight went on, a vine was swung and directly snatched the sword from Lu Zheng's hand.

Lu Zheng continued to retreat and took out a sharp sword again.

The beautiful woman raised her eyebrows, and used a vine to control the long sword, slashing towards Lu Zheng, "You don't want your sword anymore?"

Lu Zheng's expression was calm, and he said leisurely: "It's okay, I have plenty of swords. After I kill you, can't I also take the sword?"

"Arrogant!" The beautiful woman's expression turned cold.

[You diligently practice swordsmanship, making progress and understanding the Haoran Sword Intent!]

Lu Zheng's expression changed slightly, and he raised his left hand, with Zhang Liangchui in his hand.

"Old monster, take Lu's hammer!"

Lu Zheng shouted loudly and smashed out with the Zhang Liang hammer in his hand swiftly.

I saw vines flying in the air and quickly rolling towards Zhang Liang's club.

Lu Zheng was quick to let go and took two steps back.

The vines wrapped around Zhang Liang's club, and they suddenly realized that it was extremely heavy and could not be lifted.

Lu Zheng held the sword in his right hand and took advantage of the situation to perform the Haoran sword technique. The sharp sword intent turned into substance and slashed towards the mutated right arm of the beautiful woman.

With one slash of the sword, the originally extremely solid vines broke into pieces.

Lu Zheng waved his hand, and Zhang Liangchui returned to his hand, and he threw it towards the beautiful woman again.

Lu Zheng's attack was smooth and one move followed another.

Seeing Zhang Liang's club approaching, the beautiful woman had no way to escape, so she quickly gathered a large vine net to protect herself.

Before the big net was formed, Zhang Liang's hammer had already smashed the beautiful woman into the woods.

The beautiful woman was hit and truly felt the terrifying power of the big iron hammer. If she had not been very skilled in Taoism, she would not have been able to withstand it.

The beautiful woman was in a mess. She endured the pain and quickly stood up, looking at Lu Zheng not far away with a dim gaze.

But Lu Zheng was seen holding the Donghu pen in one hand and the Taishi tablet in the other, writing quickly with his own scholar's blood.

A bloody word "kill" quickly took shape.

The beautiful woman sensed something, realizing she was being targeted by a murderous intent. Without hesitation, she swiftly channeled her demonic energy and slapped the approaching flash of blood.

The two powerful auras collided with each other, causing a loud explosion. All the surrounding plants and trees were not spared and turned into scattered debris.

Lu Zheng's hands were covered in blood, and he stared at the beautiful woman with burning eyes. Before the aftermath of the impact had subsided, he had already rushed over.

As he moved, the blood in Lu Zheng's hand rose and turned into a bloody sun.

The beautiful woman's eyes were cold, and a spear condensed out and stabbed towards Lu Zheng at an extremely fast speed.

Lu Zheng crushed the red sun in his palm. In an instant, the light was so dazzling that people could not open their eyes.

The beautiful woman only felt a white flash before her eyes, and even her consciousness became a little dull.

"There is righteousness in heaven and earth!"

Lu Zheng raised his hand and grabbed the spear tightly. All the cultural instruments and strange phenomena in the palace came out to suppress the beautiful woman.

A flame of the utmost strength and masculinity burned, quickly enveloping the beautiful woman. She felt a stinging pain and tried to escape, but found herself unable to move at all, as a powerful force suppressed her.

Lu Zheng's eyes were like torches, and he said darkly, "You've been caught by me, and you still want to run away?"

Flames burned all over the beautiful woman's body, and her skin quickly melted away, revealing the bones and blood inside. She looked like a humanoid monster woven from countless vines.

The flames continued to burn, causing the beautiful woman unbearable pain.

She was in so much pain that she was confused and said frantically, "You die too!"

As she spoke, the beautiful woman's body swelled rapidly.

Lu Zheng was already on guard, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he retreated.

In just a blink of an eye, the beautiful woman's body exploded, and countless fragments turned into sharp blades, shooting in all directions.

All the plants and living things within a few dozen feet were affected and destroyed beyond recognition.

A deep pit had been blown out where the beautiful woman was originally, with flames still burning slowly around it, indicating that the fragments of the demon's body had not been completely burned.

Lu Zheng walked closer and took a closer look, frowning slightly because he did not receive the message that the big monster was dead.

Ran away? Lu Zheng couldn't help but think of a possibility.

A great demon who has practiced Taoism for hundreds of years must have some life-saving skills.

Thinking of this, Lu Zheng picked up a piece of demon body fragment and wiped off the flames on it.

Then, blood oozed out of one of his hands, and he used his own scholarly energy and blood to perform the method of tracing back.

Soon, the fragments of the monster's body vibrated, a ray of light emerged, and sank into the deep pit.

Lu Zheng quickly jumped into the deep pit and looked towards the place where the spiritual light disappeared.

He turned over the soil with his hands and found a long and narrow hole. Judging from the appearance of the inner wall, it was obviously a newly excavated passage.

The small hole was less than two fingers wide and extremely narrow.

"I have to say, Your Excellency is really capable..."

Lu Zheng stood at the bottom of the pit and said softly.

He thought the other party was really so determined and wanted to self-destruct and die with him, but it turned out that he had a trick up his sleeve.

If it were someone else, they might have been kept in the dark.

Lu Zheng waved his hand, and a handful of beans turned into bean soldiers, which drilled into the passage one after another.

Afterwards, Lu Zheng pressed the entrance of the cave again and poured the righteous energy into the passage continuously.

Deep underground, there is a vine that looks like a long snake, moving slowly.

After years of practice, the monster transformed from a poisonous vine into a spirit, and now only a vine is left, the monster is filled with resentment.

If it knew Lu Zheng was so strong, it should have retreated long ago.

Or perhaps, after knowing what happened in Hongzhou City, it should have drawn a clear line with those people and avoided disaster for a while.

Unfortunately, it’s too late to say anything now.

In the back, little bean soldiers followed the passage and the demonic energy, excitedly searching for the location of the demon vine.

The demon vine sensed some movement and felt something was wrong, but the previous incident had already drained away most of its strength, and its demon soul was also severely damaged, so it couldn't escape quickly.

But in a moment, several little bean soldiers discovered the demon vine and tried to drag it out.

Seeing this, the demon vine could only make a final struggle.

As the two sides struggled, a sense of righteousness spread through the gap.

When the demon vine came into contact with the righteous energy, it was like being dropped into a frying pan, and its movements became more violent.

But it didn't last long before he was too tired to struggle.

A group of little bean soldiers dragged the demon vine back.

But halfway through the journey, the demon vine had already lost its breath and was completely destroyed.

[You killed a great demon, eliminating a major threat. Li Qi +800!]

Lu was waiting quietly at the bottom of the pit. When he heard this news, he immediately relaxed.

"It's finally dead. Luckily, I didn't let it escape. This high-level monster is really hard to kill."

Lu Zheng couldn't help but sit against the wall of the pit and slowly regulate his breathing.

After a while, a group of diligent little bean soldiers dragged the demon vine out.

Lu Zheng glanced sideways and saw that the demon vine was three feet long and as thick as two fingers. The evil spirit in it had been cleared away by the righteous energy, and now the whole demon vine still had spiritual energy.

He couldn't help but pick it up and examine it, muttering, "It's full of spiritual energy. Could it be used as medicine?"

After the destruction of the four realms of great monsters, this little bit is left, which can be regarded as its essence.

Lu Zheng thought about it and put the vine away.

After working so hard for so long, it's impossible not to get nothing. I'll take this thing back and let Yun Xiao take a look. Maybe he needs this kind of medicinal material to make medicine.
