The new era of chaos begins in the Song Dynasty

Chapter 444 Headshot
Even though most of his body was torn apart, the Bull Demon Lord still did not die. To be precise, this injury might be considered a relatively serious trauma to the Bull Demon Lord, but it was still not a fatal injury.

However, this does not mean that the Bull Demon Lord can escape death. The serious injuries have greatly weakened the Bull Demon Lord's combat effectiveness. Perhaps he can use psychic spells to recover from his injuries quickly, but he is definitely not as fast as Chen Shen who can pounce on him to finish him off.

Chen Shen drew out his monomolecular sword and cut off half of the Bull Demon Lord's skull with just one strike, then chopped off his head with another strike, bringing this evil demon, whose strength on paper seemed absolutely powerful, to a tragic end.

After the Bull Demon Lord was killed, a second uninvited guest soon appeared on the Xihe constellation.

An evil demon with purple-black wings, a donkey's head, a bird's beak, and legs like eagle claws. In his chicken-claw-like left hand, he held a multi-horned staff with eyeballs, and in his right hand, he held a rope with countless leather scrolls strung together. He was a great clerk with ever-changing powers.

There is an extremely special kind of evil demon in the Wanbian series. In their lifetime, they were all mortal seekers with an extremely morbid greed for knowledge. When these morbid scholars fell into Chaos, their nature would not only not be reduced, but become even worse. They desperately seized unknown knowledge, learning and recording every spell that was discovered.

Out of fear of these fallen ones, the Lord of Change deliberately transformed these evil demons, splitting their fallen nature into two, turning them into two accompanying blue monsters, which people often call blue scribes.

This pair of blue horrors always retains a thirst for knowledge, but each has its own flaws.

One of the horrors is good at understanding and remembering forbidden knowledge, but it can never recite or use it; while the other horror can recite and even use this knowledge, but it can never remember and understand the true meaning of this forbidden knowledge.

If the two fear monsters are willing to cooperate with each other, they will be able to compete with any powerful opponent. It's a pity that they are always keen on internal fighting rather than external fighting.

However, there will always be some accidents in the world. If one of the two fear monsters is willing to give up his obsession, or if the two reach some kind of empathy, there is a certain chance that they will melt again and become a powerful forbidden magician, that is, the Great Secretary of Change.

The Grand Clerk of Change is the most skilled spellcaster and the most knowledgeable secret keeper in the Supreme Heaven. There are even rumors that the Lord of Change was a Grand Clerk before he ascended to godhood. Of course, many beings who have some understanding of the taboos of Chaos think this is just nonsense.

But there is no doubt that the Great Clerk of Change is an extremely dangerous demon.

When this evil demon appeared in Chen Shen's sight, the deadly psychic spell had already swept over him.

Chen Shen was alert early on and released his spiritual energy to form a shield to resist the evil demon's magical attacks.

In fact, when psychics attack each other, they either use psychic power to tear apart the enemy with brute force, with the strong one killing the weak one; or they use psychic power to transform into deadly scenes such as lightning, fire, ice and frost to kill the enemy, in which case the weak one can still win.

But after all, the victory or defeat between psychics essentially depends on the control of psychic power by both sides, or in other words, the competition of willpower between the two sides.

To be more thorough, 99% of psychics in the world, including demons, use psychic powers that do not truly belong to them, but are borrowed psychic powers from the subspace.

Since both parties are psychic lenders, naturally whoever has higher authority will have the advantage.

The level of this authority, in the evil world, is determined by the level of one's status, while in the mortal world, it is determined by the willpower of the psychic.

However, this principle is different when applied to Chen Shen.

Thanks to the baptism of the power of the princess, Chen Shen's psychic energy has been transformed from the outside to the inside, and the "psychic loan" has been transformed into his own savings, and it is the kind that he carries with him. This makes Chen Shen invincible in the confrontation with psychics. This is also a truth that Chen Shen has only recently realized.

It should be understood that psychic energy is like water, a mysterious thing with fluidity, and its nature is also like water, flowing from high potential energy to low potential energy. And psychic energy has another characteristic, if it is spiritually branded by a psychic (it can be regarded as borrowing), it will show extraordinary characteristics, such as always gathering beside the psychic's soul projection in the subspace, nourishing and feeding back the psychic's soul projection - of course, before the soul projection is nourished by the subspace psychic energy with a spiritual brand to the point of qualitative change, they are also easily hunted by those evil predators.

Psychic energy that has been branded with a spiritual imprint will naturally reject those free and ownerless psychic energies. However, psychic energy like that possessed by Chen Shen completely rejects all ownerless psychic energies in the subspace field, even including subspace psychic creatures (chaos demons), which will feel like they are trapped in a swamp when they approach.

Especially when those psychics who relied on "borrowing" to maintain their power used psychic energy to attack Chen Shen, the psychic energy they used was ever-changing, but like flowing water, while Chen Shen's psychic energy was like a rock.

Trying to use flowing water to hit a rock may make a mighty sound, but it will be of no avail.

Just as the Great Clerk of Change threw one psychic spell after another at Chen Shen, some with astonishing lethality and some with vicious and cruel effects, he was never able to break his psychic defense.

Although the Great Secretary of the Myriad Changes was not afraid of the consumption of spiritual energy, if conditions permitted, he could even "bombard" Chen Shen for a hundred years. However, the Great Secretary did not come here to compete with Chen Shen in consumption, but to stop Taoist Xuanwei from rebelling against Tiangang according to the oracle of the Lord of the Myriad Changes.

The correct thing to do is to break through Chen Shen's obstacles as soon as possible and capture and exile the traitor.

However, with the previous experience of Bull Demon Lord as a lesson, Great Secretary Wan Bian did not dare to rush forward to engage in close combat with Chen Shen. After all, Great Secretary Wan Bian was not good at close combat and was far inferior to Bull Demon Lord.

But the Grand Secretary did not dare to go against the will of the Lord of Change. He could even die here on the spot, and at worst he could be reborn in the Chaos Realm. But if he offended the Lord of Change, the ending would be ten thousand times more tragic.

Of course, for any evil demon, dying in close combat with a mortal is the most unprofitable way to die.

Not only is the loss of death huge, but one will also be exiled for at least a hundred years and unable to return to the corresponding world again - unless believers deliberately perform large-scale sacrifices for targeted summoning.

The Great Secretary Wanbian was anxious. While he was making terrifying cries, he secretly removed the protective force field covering his body.

Chen Shen almost immediately noticed the changes in the evil demon opposite him. He suddenly changed his psychic form and released a blinding bolt of lightning, causing his opponent to temporarily lose his vision. This "temporary" period lasted only a few seconds.

However, Chen Shen took the opportunity to pull out the object behind him, which turned out to be something similar to the Song Dynasty's Shenbi Crossbow, but it was made entirely of metal parts.

Chen Shen held the crossbow and pulled the trigger at the evil demon. A sharp arrow shot towards the chief clerk like lightning.

The chief clerk was no ordinary man. Even though his vision was poor, he still grabbed the crossbow arrow, making Chen Shen's shooting useless.

However, the chief clerk was a bit arrogant. While he was saying vicious words and mocking Chen Shen's stupidity, he opened his mouth and grabbed the crossbow arrow, trying to chew the metal arrow as if it were sugarcane.

It was a pity that the evil beast had just held the arrowhead of the crossbow in its mouth when Chen Shen secretly communicated with his spiritual energy, causing the crossbow arrow to explode instantly like a high-explosive grenade, blowing the demon's head to pieces.
