People are in Xianwu, there are small games

Chapter 326 Three stages of criticality, involution of the artifact!
The demonic energy surged and condensed into a knife, and in an instant it was behind Lu Ming!

The perfect power of the Immortal Lord is concentrated in this strike, which seems to be silent but is actually extremely powerful.

Before it collided with Lu Ming, the demonic sword had already split the space. Wherever the blade pointed, the power of heaven and earth came and went. Even the rules seemed to be vaguely damaged and destroyed!

At this moment, Liehu was furious.

And following Liehu's will, the Bamboo Pole Demon naturally took action with all his strength without any reservation.

Even though there are dozens of powerful witches in front of him, this sword still arrives in a moment, and he will not stop until he kills the enemy chieftain!
However, as expected, the scene where Lu Ming was penetrated by a knife did not happen...

Just before the demonic blade came into contact with Lu Ming, a big black hand suddenly appeared out of thin air in front of the long blade.

This hand was three meters long, covered with black lines that looked like magic patterns and scales.

The five slender fingers have sharp sword-like nails.

At this moment, this hand stretched out two fingers, and used the fingers as sword tips to point at the seven inches of the demonic sword.

You made such a big fuss, and ended up being chopped down by one of my men... What kind of fuss are you making?
But greed couldn't help but arise in my heart...

But what Liehu saw next made him rub his eyes involuntarily and deeply doubt his own worldview...

The dim critical lines quickly covered Lu Ming's body, but then disappeared without a trace.

Before he had time to lament the outrageous thing about the Immortal Lord of the Five Realms, Liehu saw the light from the heaven and earth inside Lu Ming further blending with the light of the black, red and gold colors of the golden body, and they merged together harmoniously!
At this moment, a demonic roar seemed to emanate from Lu Ming's body, shaking Liehu's sea of ​​consciousness.

Although it looks uncoordinated, it is not enough to surprise Liehu enough to stop him - warriors have many ways to change their appearance and body into a form more conducive to fighting.

The second-stage critical state—no matter what outside warriors call it, let’s call it the second-stage critical state—is the strongest combat state before a warrior achieves the Dharmakaya!
In this state, Lu Ming's strength increased from the regular Immortal Lord early stage to the Immortal Lord mid-stage.

When the black hole disappeared and Lu Ming reappeared, his height had risen to three meters, and the pressure on his body had reached the level of the middle stage of the Immortal King Realm!
As we all know, before a warrior achieves the Dharmakaya of Heaven and Earth, there are only two critical stages...

Sure enough, in the next second, a huge amount of the power of heaven and earth burst out from Lu Ming's body, making his whole body like a black hole, incompatible with everything around him.

Great sound!

Look at Lu Ming's face again.

At this moment Liehu felt quite dumbfounded.

Then he saw that five light spots in Lu Ming's body began to flash!
This represents Lu Ming's five inner worlds.

However, the next second, this chill quickly dissipated.

He murmured and looked at Lu Ming, and saw with his own eyes that Lu Ming's body began to expand rapidly!

Let’s see that in the second critical state, Lu Ming’s body changed again.

But when I came back to my senses, it was like an illusion, as if the demonic roar just now had never happened...

If Liehu activates the second stage of critical state, he can advance from the limit of the middle stage of the Immortal Lord to the level of the first stage of the Immortal Lord.

He believed in his own eyes, his own perception, and his own judgment.

The illusory demonic figure with three heads and six arms suddenly jumped up from behind Lu Ming and quickly penetrated into Lu Ming's body.

What really surprised Liehu was Lu Ming's next move.

A large number of black lines that resembled magic patterns and scales bloomed like flowers on every inch of Lu Ming's exposed skin. However, there was a faint golden light in the black magic lines, giving people a sense of indestructibility.

Yes, there is no embarrassment.

……

What Lu Ming was performing at this moment was something that was defined as non-existent in martial arts: three stages of critical state!
The next moment, Lu Ming's body condensed again, which was the immortal characteristic of a warrior.

At this moment, Lu Ming still maintained his original appearance, but his right hand transformed into a three-meter magic claw.

In the second stage of critical state, Lu Ming's combat power is in the middle stage of Immortal Lord, and his combat power is probably in the middle of this stage.

Because it was natural for him to be smashed to pieces with a knife!

Huge amounts of blood energy fluctuations with black, red, and gold lights instantly rippled out of Lu Ming's golden body.

"This is……"

Then he saw that his facial features were still like Lu Ming's, but his eyes had turned completely black, and his hair had turned blood red.

The sword struck Lu Ming's vest with a stern glare, blowing Lu Ming into pieces on the spot!
——Pretending to be struck by lightning!

——But Liehu naturally recognized that the little thief in front of him had completed the first stage of critical state.

The Bamboo Rod Demon roared again, and the strength of his whole body condensed into a second sword of demonic energy.

Just because it was at this time that Lu Ming activated the third stage of critical state.

With his feet on the ground, his Star Swallowing Technique was operating at full strength, without any embarrassment at all as he had just been shattered by a knife...

What followed was a huge change in body shape!
His height increased to five meters, and his hands transformed into three-meter claws.

It seems that the two stages of critical state improvement are different, but this is reasonable - after all, the fierce tiger has more inner world. After activating the second stage of critical state, the increase provided by inner world will naturally be stronger, and the increase in strength will also be greater. Much bigger than Lu Ming!
And the matter is theoretically over at this point.

At this moment, Lu Ming opened his mouth and smiled at the fierce tiger in the distance, revealing a mouth full of sharp, shark-like teeth.

The next second, three colors of light, black, red and gold, flooded out from Lu Ming's golden body. The light was as dazzling as a star, even making it difficult for Liehu to look straight at it!
He had a keen premonition that what he saw next might be completely contrary to common sense. This made Liehu endure the discomfort in his eyes and did not dare to move his eyes at all.

Violent fluctuations instantly rose, and the devil's claw collapsed in an instant but was quickly reshaped. Under the interference of this claw, the devil's long sword with the perfect power of the Immortal Lord was deflected by this sword finger and flew away from the target. In the distance, there is a hideous scar on the dry land!
In the distance, Liehu's eyes narrowed and he suddenly stopped.

Liehu couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

After the Star Swallowing Technique was upgraded to four stars, Lu Ming successfully mastered the three critical states.

But even the three critical states brought about by Star Swallowing still need to comply with the Basic Law.

The logic of the three critical states is to use the super strong golden body to guide the blood energy and the power of the inner heaven and earth to fill the empty orifices to create the illusion that the seventy-two orifices are full, thereby opening a fake version of the heaven and earth law body.

The same as the second critical state, the degree of improvement in combat power is determined by the quantity and intensity of the inner world.

The greater the number of inner worlds, the fewer acupoints that need to be forged, and the longer the three critical states can be maintained.

The higher the intensity of the inner world, the stronger the forged acupoints, and the greater the combat power bonus brought by the three critical states.

Based on the current level of Lu Ming's fifth-level inner world, the third stage of critical state can improve Lu Ming's combat power from the mid-range of the Immortal Lord in the second stage of critical state to the middle of the late stage of the Immortal Lord - but this is the limit.

Even if the bamboo pole demon is only at the end of the crane in the perfection of the Immortal Lord Realm, it is still invincible to Lu Ming in the third stage of critical state!
——For the first blow, Lu Ming used the force of four ounces to deflect the demonic sword away.

But for the second time, Lu Ming didn't check for a moment but was hit by a long knife, and his golden body was shattered on the spot.

But it doesn't matter...

"Because this battle relies on more than just three critical states."

With these thoughts in his mind, Lu Ming looked up at the fierce tiger in the distance and the bamboo pole demon nearby, and then looked down at the nearby Bahuang Realm Gate.

The Star Swallowing Technique was overclocked, and then, Lu Ming smiled.

The reason why he dared to appear in front of Lie Hu and even speak nonsense to Lie Hu was because Lu Ming was really confident that he could fulfill everything he said!
This certainty is not 100%, but it is more than 70% - this probability is completely worth Lu Ming's fight!
The source of confidence is not the three critical states.

In other words, it is not just three critical states.

What really makes Lu Ming confident is the speed of star swallowing brought by the four-star star swallowing technique and the enhancement of the swallowing characteristics!
Some of the magical skills produced by the system are quite interesting.

For example, the Star Swallowing Technique, the Invisible Sword Chapter of the Supreme Sword Code and the Sword of Life and Death Chapter.

This type of magical power has one characteristic, that is, every time it rises to a star, it will bring about huge changes!

When the Star Swallowing Technique reaches three stars, it can devour the inner world of the warrior, and at the same time, the devouring speed is greatly increased.

The four-star star-swallowing technique can strengthen the meridians and acupoints through star-swallowing, obtain three critical states, and enhance the effect of the three-phase demon-turning skill's swallowing characteristics, and once again strengthen the star-swallowing speed.

Four effects, all effective.

And except for the first one, each of the last three can be used as a trump card!

There is no need to mention the three critical states again.

And when the demonic sword turned a corner and shot towards Lu Ming again, the effect of strengthening the devouring characteristics could begin to take shape!
This time, the demonic sword penetrated Lu Ming's heart again - Lu Ming did not escape, or even put up any defense!

However, he was not blasted into fragments all over the sky again. The long knife passed through his chest and left a large scar that was transparent from the front and back. As the golden blood sprayed, Lu Ming's expression did not change, but instead he grinned.

The injuries on the body recover quickly under the influence of the immortality characteristic.

Looking back at the demonic long sword flying towards him again, Lu Ming still refused to dodge and faced the sharp edge with his chest raised!

"Pfft" sound.

The demonic sword penetrated Lu Ming's body again.

This time, however, it got stuck...

……

Liehu didn't know why the three attacks of this demonic sword caused three completely different effects.

Only the parties involved: Lu Ming and the Bamboo Pole Demon were aware of the reason.

Even the Bamboo Rod Demon only vaguely sensed that every time the long sword of his condensed demonic energy hurt Lu Ming, it would become weaker, but he didn't know the reason.

Lu Ming knew this well.

As the blood energy circulates in the body, the devouring characteristic is integrated into every strand of blood energy. They violently collided with the demonic sword, and quickly decomposed and digested the power in the sword...

A brief stalemate...

Then, visible to the naked eye, the demonic sword became smaller and smaller until it finally disappeared completely, as if it had been eaten up by Lu Ming.

At the same time, Lu Ming's death realm was in heaven and earth.

The rules of heaven and earth changed, and the underground demonic energy erupted, even disturbing the only inhabitant of this world - the Taoist monster transformed by Lu Lun.

The monster looked around blankly and saw that a large number of monsters were born from the surge of demonic energy.

The Taoist monster let out a strange cry, dinner is served!
Of course, this is not important.

The important thing is...

"Every attack in the Immortal Lord Realm carries the Immortal Lord's original immortal power or original demonic energy..."

After the devouring feature evolved again, Lu Ming's devouring feature can already absorb the power of the enemy's attack, extract the essence, and turn it into the nutrients of the world within himself!

Just like this demonic long sword, it has been swallowed by the devouring characteristics, turned into demonic rules, and was integrated into the world of death by Lu Ming.

Everything happens in a flash.

Lu Ming was hit, but he became stronger.

When the demonic sword disappeared, the bamboo pole demon roared and used all his strength to condense the third demonic sword...

The sword flashed past for a moment and penetrated Lu Ming's vest again.

However, the scene where Lu Ming was blown to pieces still didn't happen...

This time, after the knife penetrated Lu Ming's body, it was directly stuck and unable to move.

"Hey Hey……"

Weird laughter rang out from Lu Ming's mouth.

As if thinking of the famous saying from his previous life, he spoke slowly.

"I won't be knocked down twice by the same move!"

Devour it and take its essence and merge it into your own body.

When the exact same attack reappeared, Lu Ming had already understood the essence of this attack and naturally had great resistance to it!
Combined with Lu Ming's immortal characteristics and powerful golden body that have been strengthened several times, perhaps Lu Ming's combat power in the third stage of critical state is indeed only at the late Immortal Lord level, but his difficulty in killing is far beyond that of monks at this level. Comparable!
At least this stupid bamboo pole demon couldn't kill Lu Ming.

"And if you can't kill me, your master will be the unlucky one!"

"Boom."

"Boom."

A strange loud sound rang out from under Lu Ming's feet, causing all the gates of the Eight Desolations to tremble.

The next second, Liehu's expression changed, and he felt a sudden stinging pain in the center of his eyebrows, which even caused Liehu's golden body to twitch...

Power is being lost at an unprecedented rate.

In the distance, Lu Ming had already raised his head and looked at Liehu.

"Thank you for the Eight Desolate Realm Gates..."

He said this.

Then he tilted his head and said: "I think you may not have been able to predict that your Eight Desolate Realm Sect is your real life reminder!"

……

Lu Ming's decisive factor in this battle did not even lie in his enhanced devouring characteristics.

But it lies in the four-star star-swallowing technique that enhances the speed of star-swallowing!

In fact, Lu Ming had a vague premonition when he upgraded the Star Swallowing Technique to three stars, but it was not until he upgraded the Star Swallowing Technique to four stars that this premonition became completely clear.

This hunch is: Star Swallowing is an artifact of peer involution!

This premonition was confirmed when the galaxy in this world was swallowed up by the star swallowing technique.

At that time, the core of the world was still in Liehu's hands, and he was devouring the world, and he had the help of secret techniques like the Eight Desolate Realm Gate.

But what was the result?
Wasn't it because Lu Mingsheng had sucked away the world core, causing Liehu to gain nothing?

And when Lu Ming came to the Bahuang Realm Gate area again and began to absorb the inner world of Liehu with the four-star swallowing technique, the situation changed again...

The Eight Desolate Realm Gate is indeed a high-end secret technique. Not to mention other things, just the fact that it can speed up the devouring of the world is enough to make it a must-have secret technique for all warriors except Lu Ming.

However, this thing has two shortcomings that are not considered shortcomings.

One: When the Eight Wilderness Realm Gate is activated, the inner world will be separated from the protection of the warrior's golden body and exposed naked to the enemy.

But this shortcoming is generally not a shortcoming - because the Inner World is a complete world with a terrifyingly high carrying capacity. Under normal circumstances, it is much more difficult to destroy the Inner World than to directly kill a warrior.

Second: The Eight Desolate Realm Gates cannot be terminated in a short period of time.

If you want to terminate the Eight Desolate Realm Gate technique, the caster must return to the Eight Desolate Realm Gate area, and then go through a long period of time before the Eight Desolate Realm Gate can be stopped.

But this shortcoming is not a shortcoming either - after opening, the Eight Desolate Realm Gates can continuously invade the current world, accelerate the speed of devouring the world, and also provide home field advantage to the magician.

There is no reason to actively terminate the Eight Desolate Realm Gates unless necessary.

But now these two shortcomings, which are not shortcomings, have become Liehu's life-threatening talisman!
At that time, the effect of the Three-Star Swallowing Star Technique was already faster than that of the fierce tiger devouring Xingjie.

As the Star Swallowing Technique was promoted to four stars, the speed of Star Swallowing was once again greatly increased.

The "booming" sound continued.

Liehu immediately noticed that the power of heaven and earth within him began to drain away at a crazy speed.

On the other hand, Lu Ming closed his eyes comfortably.

He could feel a powerful force pouring into his body from beneath his feet.

That is the essence of the world, that is the power of heaven and earth, that is the power of martial seal!

A huge amount of power unique to warriors flowed into the body and began to strengthen Lu Ming's golden body, acupoints, meridians, martial seals, and the inner world.

In fact, at this moment, Lu Ming was supplemented by the power of the fierce tiger, so that the time limit of the third critical state was extended indefinitely!

He keeps getting stronger.

The fierce tiger continued to weaken.

And this speed is frighteningly fast!

Under this ebb and flow, the situation of strength and weakness is tilting rapidly, and now the fierce tiger has just left the dark valley and is still a long way from the gate of the Eight Desolations.

Behind him, the bamboo pole demon roared and charged towards Lu Ming.

It had learned a lot and knew that its magic sword might not be effective against Lu Ming, so it wanted to use physical attacks to deal with Lu Ming.

However, the great witches summoned by Lu Ming were no joke.

Even though these great witches in the middle stage of the Immortal Lord Realm couldn't withstand the Bamboo Demon for a long time, Lu Ming himself didn't need long either...

Just after the five great witches fell, the bamboo pole demon suddenly wailed, and then his aura plummeted!

Because its mother realm: the eighth level demon realm, was downgraded due to serious loss of power...

The upper limit of the world's ability to bear degenerated, backfired on the Bamboo Pole Demon, causing its aura to drop directly to the late stage of the Immortal Lord.

The next second, the cold sword light burst out from Lu Ming's fingertips and instantly passed through the Bamboo Demon's body.

It suddenly stagnated, then split into two from the middle, and blood spread all over the sky!
At this moment, Liehu was still half way from the Eight Wilderness Realm Gate.

Turning to look at Liehu.

Lu Ming smiled coldly.

"You're done."

But Liehu was already sweating.

But as the saying goes, hemp ropes only break at the thinnest points, and bad luck only seeks out the miserable.

Before Liehu could make any reaction, the roar of the dragon behind him sounded again!
Exploding demonic energy spurted out from the dark valley, but the three-headed dragon monster transformed by Ryuzaki flew into the sky. The two dragon heads holding in the mouths of the left and right dragons were none other than Liehu's two men!
With the loss of the power of the eighth level demon world and the degradation of the bamboo pole demon's strength, these two monsters will naturally encounter something.

In the past, the two demons were somewhat unable to resist Ryuzaki, and it was clear what would happen to them after their strength deteriorated.

What's worse is that the loss of power from the inner world also affects Liehu's combat effectiveness.

——At this moment, his speed is much slower than Ryuzaki!

In just a few breaths, Ryuzaki fell from the sky and stood in front of Liehu.

At this moment Liehu was completely desperate.
