Chapter 248: One Sword Divides Thousands of Flowers, a Hundred Days of Preparation, a Deadly Situation
Following Zhao Zhongming's order, the surrounding Gu army immediately rushed towards the academy.
The densely packed Gu people looked like a black tide, swallowing up everything in sight.
Although these Gu people are terrifying, the one behind them is even more feared.
Seeing Zhao Zhongming blessing himself with the luck of the dynasty, everyone in the academy showed solemn expressions.
You must know that the Zhongzhou monks who are still in the academy at this time are either the true disciples of the big sects or the geniuses of the smaller sects.
There may be differences in their cultivation, but their vision is definitely not low.
The reason why Zhao Zhongming can only achieve the three realms of perfection now.
It's not that he can't hit a higher realm, but that the current world can only allow the power of the three realms to appear.
This is a rule set by the true immortal, and outsiders cannot break it.
As for the deer in the cloud, although it has the cultivation level of the god transformation stage.
But it is not included in the rules, and it cannot be shot at will, so it is not included.
As for Zhao Zhongming, who was blessed by the luck of the dynasty, in addition to his skyrocketing cultivation, he also had the most terrifying thing.
That is, his power is almost inexhaustible.
After all, compared to personal cultivation, the luck of the dynasty is too majestic.
It was so majestic that Zhao Zhongming could ignore almost all consumption and fight however he wanted.
Not to mention that the power of luck can also be used to repair Zhao Zhongming's body.
If we use game language to describe it, Zhao Zhongming at this time has unlimited "mana volume" and "blood volume" at the same time.
Unless Lu Chen could kill Zhao Zhongming instantly with one sword, or the damage he caused to Zhao Zhongming was faster than Zhao Zhongming's recovery speed.
Otherwise, Zhao Zhongming, who was blessed by the luck of the dynasty, would be immortal.
And regarding this, not only everyone in the academy knew it, but Lu Chen himself also knew it.
But Lu Chen's face was still as calm as water, and there was no sign of any disturbance.
It seemed that he was not surprised by everything in front of him.
He was not surprised, but Zhao Zhongming outside the academy was surprised.
Although reason told him that no matter how talented Lu Chen was, no matter how many tricks he had.
They shouldn't be able to defeat themselves right now.
But his intuition told him that this sword cultivator from Qingyun Sect might actually have a way to crack his 'body of destiny'.
This was also the reason why he didn't rush to take action, but let his men test Lu Chen first.
He planned and decided later. He had waited for hundreds of years and didn't care if he waited a little longer.
In the academy, the first batch of Gu people who rushed into the academy soon faced the first wave of tests.
As they stepped through the gate of the academy, these Gu people suddenly found that the environment around them had changed instantly.
The original quaint scenery of the academy disappeared, replaced by a bloody scene like purgatory.
The ground beneath their feet turned into a muddy, blood-red swamp. Not only did it feel disgustingly slippery when they stepped on it, it even had a certain sensual feel to it.
It was as if what they stepped on was not the ground at all, but the skin of an unknown creature.
In the distance of this bloody land, there is a huge mountain of bones.
This mountain is towering and steep, like a bone sword thrust into the earth.
The blood that dyed the earth red flowed from the junction of the bone sword and the ground, and a strong smell of blood filled the entire bloody land, making people sick.
Not to mention that there are still many hideous-looking ghosts around this bloody land.
The Gu people looked at the evil ghosts in purgatory, and in a daze, they saw the people who had died in their hands among these evil ghosts.
Even though they had been on the battlefield for a long time and were used to seeing life and death, they were frightened by this scene.
It was an unspeakable fear, which seemed to come from the deepest part of their hearts, from the conscience in their hearts.
Because they are in this bloody place, the regrets in their memories come flooding back like a tide.
Diluted their original fighting spirit.
Under such circumstances, a strange scene occurred.
The first batch of Gu people rushed into the academy and stopped after a few steps.
Afterwards, some of these people stood there hugging each other and crying, while others showed fear and kept slashing at the surroundings.
Others have crazy faces, as if they want to kill everything they encounter.
Chaos, chaos.
A second ago, there was an army of poisonous people with strict discipline and murderous intent.
The next second, they were in chaos, and many people even started to swing their swords at their colleagues around them like crazy, causing heavy casualties.
Lu Chen just stood there, while most of the Gu people who had just entered the academy were already dead or injured.
"By fighting to enter the Tao and using karma as the law, Taoist friend Lu is truly born with a Buddha's heart."
"No, what are you talking about, you bald ass? My junior brother's swordsmanship is outstanding. Does it have anything to do with Buddha nature?"
King Meow Meow heard Juechen's "nonsense" and immediately jumped out to refute.
Juechen looked at King Meow Meow, clasped his hands together, and said calmly: "Bodhisattva's lowered eyebrows, Vajra's angry eyes, this is my Buddha's thunderous method. Isn't this the same as the sword realm of Hedao Realm currently practiced by fellow Taoist Lu?"
"Fellow Daoist Ming Miao should be aware that this sword field of Friend Lu is only effective against those who commit great crimes and evil. If it were a person who accumulates virtue and does good deeds on a daily basis, the power of this sword field will be greatly reduced."
"Just from this alone, we can see that fellow Taoist Lu is destined to be my Buddha."
King Meow Meow's brows twitched, and his two tiger fangs were exposed in anger.
Okay, okay, you Buddhists are not pretending anymore, right? You have all set your goal of salvation on the future disciples of our Qingyun Sect.
What do you mean by having a connection with Buddha? I think you just think that Junior Brother Lu is very talented and want to trick him into Buddhism.
Thinking of this, King Wu Miao immediately prepared to have another argument with Juechen.
But before it could speak, there was another noise from the distant academy.
Bang, bang, bang...
In the army of Daying Gu Ren, more than a dozen tall men with naked upper bodies began to beat the drums in front of them in a certain pattern.
After the sound of these drums appeared, the Gu Ren army, which had been in a panic, finally calmed down.
Their eyes gradually changed from guilt, fear, and madness to coldness.
At this moment, they seemed to have changed from the original "people" to cold machines without any emotions and only knew how to kill.
[Military Formation: Seven Killing Formation]
[Effect: After casting, it can make the person who formed the formation eliminate all emotions and greatly reduce the pain]
Under the blessing of the Seven Killing Formation, the Gu people army that was originally unable to advance was finally able to advance again.
But before they could advance for long, new troubles appeared.
Countless arms emerged from the ground and grabbed the Gu people.
These arms were not strong individually, but they were outnumbered.
Even after awakening their true selves, these Gu people had physiques comparable to ordinary Qi training cultivators.
But they still couldn't break free from the grasp of these arms.
A large number of Gu people kept waving their weapons in their hands, trying to cut off the arms that were grabbing them.
But their cutting speed was far slower than the speed of new arms appearing.
Soon, a large number of Gu people were dragged into the sea of blood by these strange arms and disappeared.
However, these Gu people seemed to not understand what death was, and kept stepping on the corpses of their companions to move forward.
Their eyes were cold, and they stared at Lu Chen who was standing still in the distance.
Slowly, these Gu people got closer and closer to Lu Chen, and finally came to about a hundred meters in front of Lu Chen.
But this last hundred meters was a distance they could not cross.
Because after reaching this step, what they need to face is no longer just the strange arms on the ground.
But a large number of blood swords condensed from the sea of blood.
Every time there is a flash of sword light, a Gu soldier will fall down and slowly sink into the sea of blood on the ground.
For a while, no matter how hard the Gu army tried.
The remaining hundred meters is like a natural moat, making it impossible for them to cross it at all.
Zhao Zhongming, who was far away, looked at this scene with deep eyes and a solemn expression.
Although he thought Lu Chen was troublesome, he did not expect Lu Chen to be so troublesome.
He thought that even if Lu Chen had many means.
But in the end, he was only a second-level cultivator.
Insufficient cultivation, this is the fatal weakness that Lu Chen cannot make up for.
That's why he let his men take action first. In addition to testing Lu Chen's other methods, he also wanted to consume Lu Chen's spiritual power.
But now it seems that his idea is a bit too naive.
Although he couldn't sense Lu Chen's specific cultivation, he could find that Lu Chen had been full of spiritual power from the beginning to now.
This either means that although he is only a second-level cultivator, his spiritual power has reached a level that is beyond the reach of ordinary third-level cultivators. It is unfathomable.
Or it means that Lu Chen has a way to restore his own spiritual power.
This method allows him to not have a situation where his spiritual power is insufficient even when he uses a method that consumes a lot of spiritual power, such as the sword domain.
In fact, at this time, the best way to deal with Lu Chen is undoubtedly to send out a large army of Gu people and send some third-level Gu cultivators to assist.
Even if the two sides cannot defeat Lu Chen, it is impossible for him to be unable to move a step like now.
But he did not expect Lu Chen's existence before, and sent Cui Chengyun and others too early.
As a result, there are no other third-level Gu cultivators around him who can help.
At this point, there is no point in letting his men die.
Instead, it will boost Lu Chen's momentum.
Thinking of this, Zhao Zhongming took a step forward.
Bang!
This step was not heavy, but it shook the air around him.
Even Lu Chen's bloody sword domain was stirred at this time.
Zhao Zhongming walked towards the academy step by step, and his momentum became stronger with every step.
This has nothing to do with cultivation, but the power of the emperor nurtured by Zhao Zhongming, the emperor of a hundred years.
As Zhao Zhongming moved forward, the Gu cultivators around him made way and half-knelt down.
When Zhao Zhongming came to the edge of Lu Chen's sword domain, because there were no other Gu cultivators to continue entering the sword domain, there were no other living creatures in the sword domain except Lu Chen.
Looking at Lu Chen in the sword domain, Zhao Zhongming said from the bottom of his heart: "I have to admit that although you are only at the second level, you are the strongest person I have ever met except Master Yun."
"It is hard to imagine how powerful you will be if you reach the third level."
"It is a pity that I can no longer see that scene, because you will not live to see that time."
As he said, Zhao Zhongming stepped directly into the sea of blood and corpses of Lu Chen.
After stepping into this scene, he immediately suffered a karma backlash far beyond that of other Gu people.
A general's success is the result of the sacrifice of thousands of people. As the emperor of the Daying Dynasty, Zhao Zhongming's hands have been stained with blood for hundreds of years.
Ordinary people may be afraid of the backlash of karma, but Zhao Zhongming is not afraid at all.
Looking at the ghosts baring their fangs and claws at him, Zhao Zhongming said coldly: "I am not afraid of you when you are alive, let alone after death, get out of here!"
Zhao Zhongming's voice was full of energy, and a golden light was released from his body, directly dispelling the resentful ghosts and evil ghosts who were asking for his life.
Then he bathed in the golden light and walked towards Lu Chen step by step.
Although there were countless arms in the sea of blood, trying to drag Zhao Zhongming into the sea of blood.
But these arms couldn't even get close to Zhao Zhongming. After touching the golden light around his body, they melted on the spot like ice and snow meeting the sun.
Looking at Zhao Zhongming who was in the sea of blood as if he was in an empty space, Lu Chen remained calm.
This calm look made Zhao Zhongming more and more uneasy.
The unknown is always the most frightening.
It is precisely because Zhao Zhongming does not know what Lu Chen's confidence is that he is so afraid.
You know, even if Lu Chen just displayed the sword mountain, Zhao Zhongming did not think it was anything.
Because although the sword mountain can seriously injure him, it cannot kill him.
Unless Lu Chen can summon two sword mountains in a short period of time.
Otherwise, in his current situation, he does not care about a mere sword mountain at all.
But looking at Lu Chen's appearance, he seems to have other means besides the sword mountain.
But he knows nothing about what this means is.
Although Zhao Zhongming said it domineeringly, his vigilance in his heart has been raised to the highest level.
And does Lu Chen have any trump cards?
Of course he does.
It can even be said that in order to deal with the current situation, Lu Chen had already started planning a hundred days ago.
At present, Lu Chen has three most powerful means, one is the sword of the outer way, one is the sword mountain of the sky, and the other is... the Haoran Qinglian sword domain.
Even theoretically, the power of Haoran Qinglian Sword Domain is even greater than that of Outer Dao Sword and Fengjue Tianjian Mountain.
The premise is to give Lu Chen enough time to prepare.
If someone familiar with the academy carefully observes at this time, they will find that small green lotuses have been everywhere around the academy.
These green lotuses are not only beautiful, but they are also constantly absorbing the spiritual power around them.
And these green lotuses did not appear at this time, but appeared a hundred days ago.
Although the spiritual power absorbed by a single green lotus is not much, it is overwhelming.
The number of green lotuses spread throughout the outer courtyard of the academy is at least tens of thousands.
In addition, the Bailu Academy is the place with the most concentrated spiritual power in the Daying Dynasty, and the time of a hundred days.
As a result, the spiritual power absorbed by these green lotuses is difficult for ordinary people to estimate.
And the reason why these green lotuses can persist for a hundred days is that they are not manifestations of artistic conception, but real objects.
Lu Chen relied on the characteristics of Shangqingyun Sword to achieve the degree of this sword turning into thousands of flowers.
[Name: Shangqingyun Sword]
[Rank: Three Realms]
[Term 1: Qingfeng: The spirit sword rides the wind, greatly improving the speed of flying the sword]
[Term 2: Splitting light: It can split into countless swords to fight against the enemy]
[Term 3: Flowing cloud: It can conceal its own breath, which is difficult for ordinary people to detect]
Haoran Qinglian Sword Domain is equipped with the exclusive Shangqingyun Sword.
The "Haoran Qinglian Sword" that has been accumulated for hundreds of days is Lu Chen's greatest confidence, and it is also the reason why he has never left the academy.
