Even without cheats, we must survive the apocalypse

"We'll know soon enough."

Lu Mu looked into the distance. Over there, a battle was gradually coming to an end.

"Boom!"

In mid-air, the flesh-and-blood skeleton image was already tottering. Lou Luo, the leader of the Blood-Eating Sect, tried his best to defeat the twelve black-armored puppets, but it seemed that he was only one step away from defeat.

In order to suppress the power of the sacred tree in his body, Lou Luo, who was already seriously injured and disabled, had to devote more energy to dealing with this strange power that caused his body to collapse. He was only in the initial stage of the Fate Wheel Realm, and not only was he seriously injured, but he also had to endure the continuous attacks of twelve puppets at the peak of the Source Realm.

Puppets are not afraid of pain.

If Lu Mu hadn't felt that these puppets had to be taken back to Shura Palace and kept safe, and that Lou Luo had to keep them alive for interrogation or soul searching, he could have let these puppets self-destruct and sent this guy to death.

Under the continuous attacks, Lou Luo was defeated step by step. The twelve puppets were damaged to some extent, but none of them were as serious as Lou Luo's injuries.

Finally, he was forced into a desperate situation.

Lou Luo formed seals with his hands, and the skeleton image under him suddenly exploded!

In an instant, blood clouds surged!

The sky was filled with blood, like a bloody rain, sweeping towards the twelve puppets as densely as rain.

This time he released almost all the strength in his body, and soon, the power of the sacred tree found an opportunity and continued to erode his body.

Lou Luo only cared about whether the twelve puppets could be destroyed by this desperate blow.

But in the blood rain, twelve broken and corroded black-armored puppets rushed out again and rushed towards him!

In the end, he never got the chance to turn the tables.

Chapter 21: The End

When Lou Luo was caught by the puppets and thrown in front of Lu Mu, he said nothing and didn't even howl.

His limbs had been severed, leaving only a huge bloody hole in his lower abdomen. No matter how powerful a cultivator was, once his Dantian was dug out, he would become a cripple, although the Dantian could grow back.

But there is no need to give evil cultivators this opportunity.

"you……"

He stared at Lu Mu, as if he hated the four people in front of him.

"You all... deserve to die..."

Lou Luo cursed with a ferocious face.

Lu Mu's face was indifferent: "You don't have to worry about what will happen to us."

There was no need to listen to his chatter. He raised his hand and smashed his mouth and throat into pieces with murderous intent. Since he didn't expect Lou Luo to spit out ivory from his dog's mouth, there was no need to leave him that mouth.

There was a gleam in Lou Luo's dead gray eyes, the pain made him tremble, but he still wanted to maintain the dignity of an evil cultivator like a stubborn dead dog.

"Oh, these guys look a bit bad."

Lu Mu looked at the twelve black-armored puppets that had stopped moving. In the battle with Lou Luo, they had suffered many injuries and were basically severely disabled. However, they could still move and fight. They just needed someone to repair them or replace them with new ones.

"If Master knew that you turned all the most expensive puppets in the palace into this state, he would definitely be angry."

Murong Xue chuckled, as if she had already imagined the thundering and furious look of the Shura Palace Master.

very quiet.

Just like he never takes off his robe and never reveals his true face, even when he is angry, the Shura Palace Master is as quiet as a sculpture, and one can only judge how intense his anger is from his aura.

In fact, there is no other master as good as him in the world.

"It's okay. At worst, I can make up for it myself in the sect."

Lu Mu raised his hand and put all the puppets back into the spirit ring.

These puppets could be considered worthwhile, if they really had any value in life... but it was fate that had beaten the Wheel of Destiny into this state and also destroyed its cultivation, which was indeed a strange thing.

Although the fragments of the Tiansheng Divine Tree did not play such a crucial role, I am afraid that these puppets, plus the four of them, would probably have to fight a bloody battle before Lou Luo could be defeated.

After all, for a cultivator who reaches the fifth level of Creation, no matter what means he uses, it is a qualitative breakthrough in power.

It is really difficult to go against the destiny that is below destiny.

It's so difficult that the "protagonist" will be helpless.

"So, what should he do?"

Gu Yunxi shrugged.

"Just extract his soul and give it to my master. He will know what to do with this guy."

Lu Mu squatted down and looked at Lou Luo, whose whole body was melted but still alive, but even his mouth and throat were gone, and who could not make any sound. He gave a cruel sneer.

When it comes to dealing with evil practitioners, no matter how hard you try, it’s never too much.

He took out a soul-binding stone, then directly used his Taoist power to pull Lou Luo's soul out of the melted body.

The soul struggled in the air, but because it was imprisoned, it could not move at all.

Lou Luo stared with his scarlet eyes, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't make a single sound, only resentment remained.

"Don't look at me so fiercely."

Lu Mu said calmly, "You will suffer someday."

He stuffed the soul into the soul-binding stone, then attached a talisman to it. With a flash of silver light, the soul stone disappeared.

That teleportation talisman will deliver the imprisoned soul stone to the right person.

Suddenly, everything was silent.

This wasteland, which was surrounded by a barrier and filled with the stench of blood in the air, fell completely silent.

The headquarters of the Blood-Eating Sect has been completely destroyed. More than a hundred evil cultivators have died here. There may be some that have escaped the net outside, but they don't need to deal with them. The three surrounding dynasties have already suffered from the harassment of the Blood-Eating Sect.

They did not take action here because of the existence of the leader of the Blood-Eating Sect.

Now he is dead.

As long as the news spreads, the remaining fish that slip through the net will become rats crossing the street that everyone will chase after.

"The center of this barrier is underground, let's destroy it."

Gu Yunxi pointed to the dilapidated building behind them.

"Row."

Behind Lu Mu, the murderous Shura appeared, and his six arms came out at the same time, throwing out hundreds of punches in an instant, blasting the pavilion and whatever was buried underneath into pieces.

Dust was flying and smoke was billowing.

In the sky, the hazy and dim blood light began to fade. Lu Mu didn't even see what the center of the formation looked like, but there was no need. Pure force was the best way to break the formation, especially since the center was usually completely defenseless.

No matter how many psychedelic arrays there are in this barrier, if the defensive arrays are stacked one on top of the other and the center of the array is gone, everything will disappear.

After about dozens of breaths, the barrier disappeared, and they saw the scorching sun outside. The temperature also became higher. There was scorching sun here all year round, and the evil practitioners' skills were always sinister, so they didn't like heat.

They came to a town somewhere in the wilderness, and found a casual cultivator who was living in poverty, and gave him some spirit stones.

In exchange, he would spread the news that the Blood-Eating Sect's headquarters had been destroyed.

It takes time for the message to get noticed.

Those who make a living in this border area between dynasties are guys who are not afraid of death. However, not being afraid of death does not mean giving up one's life meaninglessly.

Going near the Blood-Eating Sect's territory would be a meaningless act of losing one's life.

They had to wait for more accurate information before they dared to approach the Blood-Eating Sect's headquarters.

But that won't be long.

then……

Then no.

The rest of the things are no longer worth their attention.

"that's it?"

On a high mountain, Murong Xue leaned against Lu Mu and murmured.

"That's all."

Lu Mu touched her head.

"What a shame. I thought I could stay longer this time, but I didn't expect it to end so quickly."

She sighed regretfully.

Murong Xue really liked staying in Shura Palace, being a good senior sister, and enjoying the admiration of her junior sisters. She was no longer cold and distant towards everyone and put up a high wall like before.

The main reason is that those junior sisters have many ways to dress themselves up to look beautiful and charming, and then learn from each other's ideas and experiences in finding their loved ones, which is different from someone like her who is naturally charming.

She enjoyed learning something from them.

Be it the way of playing, the posture, or the dressing and makeup...she rarely learns the first two without a teacher, and has never learned the latter two.

It's good to learn something.

If not for yourself, then for the person you love.

But occasionally when she left Shura Palace, Murong Xue actually hoped to stay longer.

This time, the cleansing of Jiyuan seemed to be completed too quickly, so quickly that Murong Xue felt a lack of sense of reality.

In other words, the playfulness is still there.

Although she has reached the Source Realm, she is still very young, unlike those cultivators who have to be over a hundred years old to enter this realm.

Too young.

Chapter 22: Something to do

Lu Mu raised his drooping eyebrows slightly, and then returned to his calm expression: "Yes, I'm not in a hurry to go back."

Murong Xue blinked her big eyes and looked at him.

Lu Mu turned his face slightly, reached out his hand, and gently stroked the ends of her soft hair.

While the two were chatting, Gu Yunxi rolled her eyes, feeling that they were completely ignoring her existence.

This feeling can’t be said to be terrible, it’s just not very pleasant.

She decided not to speak anymore and just sat there quietly, staring at the wasteland in the distance. The scorching sun was burning the dry land, making it look even more desolate and solemn; even the air seemed scorched.

Luo Shuangning was also very quiet. Her purpose of leaving Wanjian Qianshan had been achieved, but continuing to stay with Lu Mu was what she wanted to do.

There is no rush to return to Wanjian Qianshan.

"Yunxi, are you planning on going anywhere?"

Lu Mu turned to look at Gu Yunxi, but she just rolled her eyes at him, because this was the first time she heard this guy call her without the word "girl".

Suddenly it feels so familiar, right?

"Not yet. Although the Imperial Ceremony of the Immortal Phoenix Dynasty will be held in a while, I am not very interested in such grand events. After all, I am just a small Marquis of Life Chaser. If I go there, I will be surrounded by princes and nobles and will be easily ridiculed."

She pouted.

"I think you can go for a while. Stay with me. No one will laugh at you, right?"

Lu Mu smiled.

"Hehe, I'm borrowing your light, huh?" Gu Yunxi snorted coldly.

Indeed, there should not be such a person in the Xianhuang Empire who dares to mock the young master of the Lu clan.

She didn't object to following Lu Mu. After all, she was not a loner. The reason she was alone was because there were not many people who were qualified to be her travel companion.

However, Young Master Lu is obviously very qualified. At least his spirit ship is quite comfortable to sleep in and it doesn't cost any money.

Then why not together?

The only thing Gu Yunxi had to worry about was this lecherous guy who turned everything upside down at night. This spirit ship was good in every way except that it lacked sound insulation, so she had to set up a sound insulation formation herself.
