Chapter 245 The entire army was wiped out
"Strange, where did Guo Quan go? Could he have deserted his post?"

Heavy rain was pouring down on the river.

Lu Jing knocked Liu Qingyi back with a single palm strike, then looked around in confusion.

Just moments ago, Guo Quan and Liu Qingyi had joined forces to kill him. One was a master swordsman, and the other a skilled spearman. They fought back and forth, with the Qingshui Sword never leaving its mark. The Hongying Spear had a thousand different moves, and in the blink of an eye, Lu Jing was at a disadvantage.

Just as he was on the verge of death, Lu Jing suddenly felt dazed and lost his focus for a moment.

After I came to my senses...

Liu Qingyi, who was not far away, stared at him as if she had seen a ghost, her face still showing lingering anger and even a hint of barely perceptible fear.

Within Lu Jing's body, a vibrant life energy flowed out like a tidal wave.

The skin, muscles, bones, limbs, and even the mind and spirit all felt a sense of jubilation.

Not only did it heal his injuries, but it also helped him make further progress in his cultivation, making him seem to be only one step away from becoming a true master of the Tongue-Cutting Thief.

This is weird, what's going on?
Lu Jing sensed a faint sense of unease.

But the next moment.

What's wrong with that?

I, Lu Jing, am naturally gifted, with amazing talent in martial arts. It is only natural that I have achieved this. Why should I be surprised?

Thus, all doubts and questions vanished.

Lu Jing's eyes revealed a resolute expression, radiating absolute confidence in his martial arts.

My martial arts level today is entirely due to my own cultivation!

So, when he noticed the strange look Liu Qingyi was giving him, Lu Jing laughed in exasperation, casually wiping away a trace of sweet blood from the corner of his mouth, and said,
"You really think I, Lu, would eat people? Did I eat Guo Quan?!"

"Shameless, stubborn, and utterly depraved! You monster!!"

Liu Qingyi's eyes were bloodshot, and her arms twisted and trembled. It was unclear what secret technique she had used, but her aura surged and she exuded a strong smell of blood.

With a sudden stomp of his left foot on the water's surface, it felt as if he were stepping onto solid ground, propelling him forward and creating a massive gust of wind beneath his feet.

The red-tasseled spear emitted a deep hum, like a dragon's roar, and the red tassel instantly exploded, transforming into a dazzling red light that blinded the eye. Its speed was so fast that only a tiny silver star remained!
In that instant, Liu Qingyi's martial will, spear skills, and even his belief in the peace and prosperity of Wuqing County and the elimination of all evil people and scoundrels all poured into this single shot.

In that instant, the power he unleashed even touched the edge of perfect truth!

"Strange, why has Liu Qingyi's strength suddenly weakened so much?"

Facing Liu Qingyi's sublime attack, a faint doubt flickered in Lu Jing's eyes.

Instead of retreating, he advanced, bringing his fists together as if embracing the empty air. Within his arms, a whistling wind and powerful waves swirled and spun, and a faint golden light appeared on his fists as he slammed them down on the spear shaft!
Boom!

The force of the fist and the force of the spear collided violently, and red and golden light exploded, causing waves several meters high to rise on the river surface, splashing water and filling the air with mist.

The gun barrel was struck by both fists. Liu Qingyi felt a powerful internal force travel through the gun barrel. He felt a sweet taste in his throat and spat out a mouthful of blood. The blood fell onto the river surface and was instantly diluted by the waves.

He was thrown far away like a tattered sack and fell into the river.

His entire aura instantly vanished.

However, the finless porpoise he was riding did its duty and immediately swam over to lift him up.

I can't control how you two-legged humans fight to the death among yourselves, but you can't drown in the water!
This is the decree of the Supreme God!

Lu Jing looked at Liu Qingyi's heavily injured appearance, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes.

But in the next instant, his face showed determination and ruthlessness. He leaped up like a swallow, drew his ring-pommel sword from his waist with his right hand, and slashed down with the sword light as cold as lightning, aiming straight for Liu Qingyi's neck.

Although Liu Qingyi misunderstood him, mistakenly believing him to be some kind of evil sorcerer, which led her to kill him and launch a sneak attack.

But Lu Jing wasn't some fussy, old-fashioned person. He couldn't possibly tear off all pretenses and face someone to the death, and then try to prove his innocence by cutting open his own intestines to prove how many bowls of noodles he ate!
Kill to stop killing!

He who kills will be killed by others!
Boom! !

That's when.

Suddenly, a strong wind arose, and thunder roared in the clear sky, with branch-shaped bolts of lightning filling the heavens.

The vast river beneath me suddenly seemed to boil, bubbling and gurgling.

Then, to Lu Jing and Liu Qingyi's astonishment, tentacles resembling giant pythons rose from the ground, carrying a soaring demonic aura.

With a single roll, it firmly wrapped the two of them around the tentacle suction cups.

"Is this the great demon from the depths of the Funiu Marsh? It's so terrifying, it's like a god yet a demon!"

Upon seeing this, Lu Jing's martial arts heart began to crack, feeling as if he were an ant looking at the blue sky. He felt that their preparations for many days and their joint efforts to slay the demon were a joke.

Let alone them, even if a martial arts grandmaster like Grandmaster Tie Yu were to be resurrected, he would probably find it difficult to stop this great demon.

Liu Qingyi keenly sensed that this great demon seemed to have little killing intent or ferocity, and that capturing it alive now must have another purpose. She couldn't help but show a look of wild joy in her eyes.

As long as there is life, there is hope. "Indeed, good will prevail over evil; even God is on my side!"

What does it mean to have a "turnaround" or "a turn for the better"?

Liu Qingyi thought she would sacrifice herself for the righteous path today, but unexpectedly, she was 'saved' by the monster in a different way!
The giant demon octopus poked out its imposing head, looking with some satisfaction at the two people and two pigs on its tentacle suction cups.

"He has hands and feet, and he's strong. He seems capable of surviving underwater for a long time. That's great! A top-notch able-bodied young man!"

"I can't let you escape again. One, two, three... oh wait, I can't count you all. Let me count again... Whatever, tie them all up and make them build my house. Brilliant..."

Zhang Ju nodded excitedly, then slapped his head against the water's surface, creating towering waves that churned up mud and sand, but did not harm any fish, shrimp, or small monsters.

Like a gentle breeze, it transforms into soft, gentle waves as it approaches the little fish and shrimp demons.

These 'neighbors' are all helpful in moving construction waste, processing my excrement, and improving water quality, so Zhang Ju naturally doesn't want to ruin their lives.

Let's keep it.
Once they're fattened up, they can be tied up and used for house repairs and wall construction.

……

"It seems that everyone except me has been wiped out?"

Chen Shunan swam dozens of miles in one breath. After landing, he immediately traversed the forest and crossed the mountains, changing his body shape until he could see the dock at the three-way intersection in the distance. Then he randomly found a reed bed and plunged into it.

A hint of shock lingered on his face; he hadn't expected such a powerful demon to be hidden in the Funiu Marsh.

only……

Building a house, laying tiles and transporting stones?

Chen Shunan's expression turned somewhat strange.

This great demon doesn't like killing, arson, or devouring the heavens and the earth; it actually hides under the water and builds a house?

Or perhaps it's the Water Mansion Cave?

However, Chen Shunan still had some doubts. This great demon was simply the most powerful demon he had ever encountered in his life.

Who caused its injuries, the fallen red scales, and the flowing blood?

Although his magical power level is similar to that of the lost Qi-gathering immortal, it is estimated that their realms are comparable.

It was quite obvious that this great demon had an extraordinary background, probably even more remarkable than the two so-called 'White Mountain Nobles' from before.

After all, its true form is comparable to a mountain.

Even without cultivation, they are by no means someone that can be fooled by some "Meridian Opening" immortal.

It's no wonder that the three immortals in Wuqing County, disguised as officials, remained indifferent to its existence.

The immortals from Aoshan Taoist Temple, Yueshan Taoist Temple, and Fengchi Taoist Temple also tacitly indicated that there was no need to interfere.

Because we can't control it!
Moreover, Chen Shunan was quite familiar with the atmosphere of the Holy Dynasty, which was consistent throughout. He estimated that the unspoken rules of the so-called cultivation world were also consistent with those of the Holy Dynasty.

They prioritize seniority, form cliques, and pursue personal gain.

This great demon might very well be a descendant of some prestigious sect, a prince, or a noble.

There's someone above us!
"The entire court is full of treacherous officials, all of them immortals in human skin. Within Wuqing County, even more powerful forces are entrenched, and undercurrents are surging. The four major academies are openly and secretly vying for the Grandmaster's Record in order to cultivate a martial arts grandmaster."

The giant toad sits on the hill, and there are two other figures, a registrar and a county magistrate, whose true forms have not yet been revealed. Each has their own layout, and they graze their livestock in the county town.

Currently, not far from Wuqing County, in the Funiu Marshland, there still lurks a great demon. It may not inherently harbor any ill will towards Wuqing County, but its mere presence, the leaked demonic energy, blood, and crimson scales, are enough to affect the local inhabitants, breed evil spirits, and unleash a surging tide of demons…”

Chen Shunan's face grew darker the more he thought about it.

The Changbai Demon Dynasty is too monstrous! How are the common people supposed to live? How are we martial artists, those who genuinely aspire to cultivate and become immortals, supposed to cultivate and grow stronger?!
This holy dynasty is so cruel! Not only is it forcing me to become bad, but it also makes me live on thin ice, trembling with fear!

This is absolutely outrageous!

Therefore, only by becoming a martial arts master can Chen Shunan have a sense of security.

"The most urgent task is to quickly master the [North Star] method. Once the Divine Appearance Ran Yiyu is upgraded again, a golden lotus can be planted in the Niwan point, which will greatly benefit the improvement of the primordial spirit. Although we are still missing some wishes, we can accumulate enough in just one or two days."

"As for the method of 'extraction and replenishment,' which constructs both inner and outer primordial spirits, causing the yin filth and corpse energy to mistakenly believe that the outer primordial spirit is the true primordial spirit, this method is quite dangerous. As Scholar Ma said, it would be best to find some samples. I, Chen, have always been kind to others and eager to help others, but unfortunately, these young talents and immortals from Fengchi Daoist Academy and Yueshan Daoist Academy are pressing me step by step... Then don't blame me for using the Grandmaster's Record to make a list!"

"Furthermore, the Zhang family of Tongzhou has a rather ambiguous attitude towards me. They even found someone to be my substitute and divert my attention... Regardless of their motives, I am cultivating the 'Flesh Immortal' and Shuiwozi has intricate connections with them. Finding them as my backer might be the best choice."

In this world, connections matter.

Chen Shunan naturally wanted to continue cultivating the two major forces of Shuiwozi and the Zhang family of Tongzhou.

Therefore, whether it was to have the ability to protect himself or to prove his worth, he was favored by the Zhang family of Tongzhou.

Becoming a martial arts master is the only way!
"Never mind, let me check on the situation with Tun Mengzi first... Sigh, it seems my entire porpoise population has been wiped out and tied up to build houses?"

Chen Shunan hid silently, then his consciousness returned to the throne in the divine palace. Following the guidance of the incense offerings in the darkness, he cast his gaze toward Tun Mengzi.
