Longevity starts with eating monsters

Chapter 79: Danhuoshan Manor, Divine Weapon Ceremony

Zhou Huijue planned to leave.

There are two reasons.

First, after the fight, he determined that Lu Chen had enough strength to solve the problems in Guanzhong Prefecture. Second, he did not have the leisure to stay in Guanzhong Prefecture for long.

"I came to Guanzhong Prefecture on a secret trip. Therefore, I only have one chance. The power of Tathagata Palm is too great. Once it is used, my position cannot be hidden at all. The demons in other places will surely be ready to make a move after they find out that I have left, so I must go back immediately."

"As soon as possible, you will become stronger."

Zhou Huijue looked at Lu Chen, who had never shown any emotion. He tried hard to pull out an arc on his face that looked like a knife and an axe: "I look forward to you becoming a saint with the elixir."

"Thank you, Master."

Lu Chen said politely, "However, Master has only practiced for one year to become a Cave God Grandmaster. I think he should be able to hold the elixir soon."

"I can't do it."

Zhou Huijue said honestly, "I have a knot in my heart. If I don't get rid of it, there is no hope for the alchemy path. Otherwise, I would not place my hope on you."

Knot?

Lu Chen was stunned when he heard this, but Zhou Huijue didn't want to say more. Instead, he put his hands together, bowed, and set out on the road back to Jiangzhou Headquarters.

After sending Zhou Huijue away, Lu Chen looked at the Blood Inscribed Knife on his waist again. Although it was now in the scabbard, as usual, when he placed his hand on the hilt, he could still feel the wailing coming from the blade. This precious weapon that had been tempered for hundreds of times could no longer withstand his beating.

Just now, after he cut off Zhou Huijue's Tathagata Palm, he wanted to strike again, but the Blood Inscribed Sword could not hold up.

After all, although his strength is still far from Zhou Huijue, his explosive power is almost the same. It is normal that the Blood Inscribed Sword cannot withstand his explosion.

"grown ups!"

At the same time, the young man from Danhuoshan Villa also came over with Lin Haoyuan and others, but his expression had changed greatly.

He just looked at Lu Chen with burning and passionate eyes.

If he was just pretending to be excited before, then after seeing the fight between Lu Chen and Zhou Huijue, he really felt hopeful.

"The divine weapon has reached the final stage of refining, and only the final step of ritual sacrifice is left."

"Grandpa's Dharma Festival will be held in three days. A great demon from the Demon Country will surely enter the country at that time."

"Please save my villa!"

The young man was about to kneel down after he finished speaking, but he was held up in the air by a ball of true energy. When he looked up, he only saw a face with a kind smile.

"Sacrificial weapons? What did the demon do to my magic weapons?"

"Tell me more specifically."

Outside the Great Wall of Kyushu, after passing through the yellow sand, you will come to a place among the mountains that are thousands of feet high. This place is the Wanren Demon Kingdom, which is famous throughout the entire Shenzhou.

The Wanren Demon King who founded this demon kingdom is said to live in the deepest part of these mountains, on the "Jietian Peak" that rises from the ground and penetrates the sea of ​​clouds. No one has ever seen the true face of the demon king, only his shadow cast from the top of the peak, covering the entire demon kingdom.

And in a forest at the edge of this demon country.

"Please forgive me, young marquis!"

Inside a magnificent palace, a middle-aged scholar was seen kneeling on the ground, sweating profusely: "This is an unexpected incident, it is really not the fault of the war."

"Is it?"

In front of the middle-aged scholar, a young man with hawk-like eyes and a gloomy expression said in a cold voice: "Before I left, the overall situation in Guanzhong Prefecture had been settled, Qinghe Sword Sect cooperated obediently, Wuyou Temple was in danger, and Danhuoshan Villa was ready to be killed. After I left, you told me that all these were destroyed?"

"And the one who did all this was an inspector whom I don't know?"

"How long do you think I have been fighting with those two-legged beasts in Bai Gulin and Jiangzhou? Do you think I am stupid enough not to recognize their provincial governor?" "Zhou Huijue!"

The middle-aged scholar said loudly: "The speed at which that provincial governor rose to power and his strength improved so quickly that it reminded me of Zhou Huijue back then!"

"Buddha's Palm?"

The young man shook his head: "What a joke. Who is Zhou Huijue? Even the Rotten Buddhist Temple sent people to inquire about him. Do you think that kind of genius is common?"

"I never speak falsely!"

Seeing the middle-aged scholar swearing, the young man gradually frowned and finally waved his sleeves: "Forget it, then I will go to Guanzhong Prefecture with you personally."

"what?"

The middle-aged scholar was stunned when he heard this, and then he looked embarrassed. Although his young marquis was the pride of the White Bone Forest and was well-known throughout the Monster Country, he was still at the second level of the Transformation Realm, not the third level of the Cave God. If he went to Guanzhong Prefecture alone, he might get killed accidentally.
"What? You don't trust me?" The young man narrowed his eyes.

"That's not true!" The middle-aged scholar was sweating profusely as he remembered: "It's just, it's just..."

"Don't worry, I won't joke about my life."

Seeing this, the young man snorted coldly: "The Demon Marquis is being watched by Jiang Zhou, so I can't spare time to go to Guanzhong Prefecture with you, but I will bring something more useful."

After saying this, the young man lifted up his clothes, revealing a jade pendant hanging on his belt.

There is a strange carving on the jade pendant, which is shaped like a towering ancient tree. Its branches are like a huge net covering the sky, spreading out and wrapping the entire jade pendant.

"This is the gift my father gave me for becoming a demon."

"With it protecting me, no one can kill me."

After hearing this, the middle-aged scholar finally felt relieved, and at the same time he had a new understanding of how favored his young master was.

Because it knew that the one who made such a protective jade pendant for the young man should be the owner of the entire White Bone Forest, and also the Evergreen Demon King who was conferred a title in the Wanren Demon Country and ranked among the king's courts. With its protective means, it is indeed more reassuring than a cave god demon marquis.

Even a cave god demon lord might not be as good as this means of self-defense.

"In this way, there will be no risk of error."

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go to Guanzhong Prefecture."

The young man smiled and said, "You better not lie to me. I hope that the two-legged beast named Lu Chen can bring me enough fun."

"You won't be disappointed, young lord."

The middle-aged scholar wiped his cold sweat and felt sad for the provincial governor of Guanzhong Prefecture. Perhaps he did not understand his situation.

This lord in our family is called "Young Marquis", and he is actually the son of the Evergreen Demon King.

He was born with a "half human, half demon" physique, which once alarmed the other demon kings in the royal court. After he achieved great success in his cultivation, he was invincible in the second level of the realm of transformation.

Even if we face the cave god, we are confident that we can escape if we fight.

In the forest of bones, countless demons regarded him as their hope to fight against Zhou Huijue in the future, and they were waiting for him to break through the cave god so that they could launch a general attack on Jiangzhou.

However, the physique of a "half-human, half-demon" combines all the advantages of humans and monsters, so the calamity of the cave god he attracts is far greater than that of a normal warrior. That's why he secretly planned to let Danhuoshan Villa help him build a magic weapon to share the heavenly calamity and prepare for his breakthrough to the cave god.

Such a background, such strength.

Even if Lu Chen really had extraordinary talent and potential comparable to the second Zhou Huijue, so what? Potential was only potential after all, not strength.

It takes time to turn potential into strength.

And he won't have that time.
