Chapter 88 Sneak Attack and Devouring the Master
Chapter 88 Sneak Attack and Devouring the Master
Knowing that she couldn't continue like this, Liu Yueru's eyes suddenly changed. She abandoned Luo Qing and, in a flash, charged towards Deng Feng and the others on the treasure refining platform.
Deng Feng and his eight companions were prepared. Upon seeing Liu Yueru's attack, they immediately activated the Golden Sun Divine Fire Banner and combined their strength to create a massive flame shield.
"Bang!"
Liu Yueru's crimson-gold claws slammed into the flame shield, causing it to tremble violently and ripple with countless waves, but they managed to block her.
Although she could break through the defense with just a few attacks, Liu Yueru didn't want to waste time because there was an easier target nearby.
She immediately shifted her focus, fixing her gaze on Nie Shan and the other two, especially Yuan Yao and Yan Li, who were the weakest in cultivation.
She moved swiftly, dodging the fireballs fired by Deng Feng and the others, and pounced on the two women. Her crimson-gold claws gleamed with a cold light, clearly indicating that she wanted to take them as food for the Soul Devouring Ghost.
Nie Shan's expression changed drastically. He hurriedly cast a spell to block, but was blasted away by Liu Yueru's attack and coughed up blood.
Yuan Yao and Yan Li turned pale with fright and retreated repeatedly, but because they were too slow, they had no way to dodge.
At this critical moment, a dark golden figure rushed over like lightning. Luo Qing waved his hand and unleashed several blood bone fist shadows, forcing Liu Yueru back and protecting the two women behind him.
"Senior Brother Luo!"
Yuan Yao felt relieved, and tears welled up in her eyes as she watched Luo Qing's retreating figure.
She had been saved by this person again... Yanli's gaze was quite complicated at this moment.
However, Luo Qing had no time to pay attention to the two women at this moment. The main reason he rescued them was that he saw Liu Yueru's impatience and deliberately prevented her from easily obtaining blood food.
The other reason is that after these few rounds of fighting, he has roughly figured out the Soul Devouring Ghost's supernatural abilities.
This ghost can directly attack the primordial spirit. If the physical body is grabbed by its ghostly hand, the primordial spirit will likely be pulled out on the spot.
If one were to seize a magical artifact, the primordial spirit imprint on the artifact would be instantly destroyed, causing a significant backlash against its owner.
After figuring out the supernatural power, Luo Qing immediately came up with a plan. He used the Condensation Technique: Blood Bone Fist to fight Liu Yueru, always maintaining a safe distance so as not to give the Soul Devouring Ghost any opportunity to take advantage.
Liu Yueru was furious when she saw that Luo Qing had ruined her plans, but she also knew that Luo Qing was the biggest threat, so she was happy that Luo Qing would no longer have to hide and run away.
She immediately abandoned her pursuit of Nie Shan and the other two, and took the initiative to engage Luo Qing in battle. The Soul-Eating Ghost roamed around her, constantly emitting shrieks, looking for an opportunity to strike.
In Liu Yueru's view, Luo Qing's black fist shadow must have consumed a lot of magic power.
Luo Qing's magical cultivation has only just entered the Foundation Establishment stage, and her magical power is limited, so a war of attrition is advantageous to her.
But she never expected that when Luo Qing used the Blood Bone Fist, he consumed mostly his malevolent energy, rather than his own magical power.
Luo Qing has never been afraid of the consumption of killing energy!
A fierce battle continued, with fist shadows and ghostly claws intertwining, golden yang divine fire colliding with mysterious yin ghostly energy, and powerful spiritual shockwaves spreading continuously, shattering the rocks around the treasure refining altar and sending dust flying.
In the blink of an eye, more than thirty rounds had passed, and Luo Qing remained calm and composed, showing no signs of fatigue. On the contrary, he became more and more courageous as the battle progressed.
On the other hand, Liu Yueru's situation is getting worse.
The Soul-Eating Demon's attack on its master intensified; her face turned ashen, her lips were bloodless, cracks began to appear in her crimson-gold crystal armor, and the spiritual flames above her head were almost extinguished.
She stared intently at Luo Qing, her eyes filled with disbelief and despair, and asked in a trembling voice:
"You...how do you still have magic powers?! What kind of evil magic are you using?"
Luo Qing sneered inwardly, but remained outwardly calm, deliberately slowing down to reveal a subtle flaw.
Upon seeing this, Liu Yueru's eyes flashed with wild joy, as if she had grasped the last straw. Without thinking, she shouted sharply and commanded the Soul-Eating Ghost:
"Quick! Grab him!"
The Soul-Eating Demon let out a shriek, its figure darting out like a ghost, its dark ghostly hand carrying a chilling aura, grabbing fiercely at Luo Qing's exposed left shoulder.
Luo Qing was prepared. The moment the Soul-Eating Ghost pounced, he slightly shifted his body and activated the Blood Bone Fist. Two huge black fist shadows appeared out of thin air and just blocked the Soul-Eating Ghost's ghost hand.
Just then, a purple figure suddenly darted out from the side.
Fan Jingmei made a sword gesture, and a cyan flying sword, carrying a sharp gust of wind, pierced straight towards Liu Yueru's back.
She launched the sneak attack under Luo Qing's telepathic communication!
Liu Yueru reacted extremely quickly, sensing the murderous intent behind her. She immediately turned to the side, and with a sudden grab of her crimson-gold hand, she forcefully seized the flying sword that Fan Jingmei had summoned.
"You think you can hurt me, you piece of trash?"
But as soon as she finished speaking, Liu Yueru felt a sharp burning pain coming from her palm.
She subconsciously looked down and saw a tiny golden flame landing in her palm.
Although this flame is small, it carries an overbearing aura that can incinerate everything; it is the Golden Divine Flame!
It turned out that before launching the sneak attack, Fan Jingmei secretly used her flying sword to circle around to the vicinity of the Golden Light Profound Fire Liquid in the high sky, allowing the flying sword to be tainted by the Golden Light Divine Flame.
"You bitch!"
Liu Yueru screamed in alarm and hurriedly activated all her magical power in an attempt to suppress the golden divine flames that had spread to half of her body.
As soon as the control weakened, the Soul-Eating Demon turned its head fiercely and set its sights on Liu Yueru.
It was a ferocious creature by nature, and now that it was free from its restraints, its first instinct was to devour its master.
Just as Liu Yueru had managed to suppress the fire, a sudden chill ran down her spine, causing her heart to clench violently.
"No! Don't!"
Liu Yueru let out a desperate scream, her eyes filled with fear and regret.
The Soul-Eating Ghost ignored her, reaching out its ghostly hand to grab Liu Yueru's shoulder. Dark ghostly energy instantly surged into her body, frantically devouring her essence and spirit.
Liu Yueru's body began to wither rapidly, her screams gradually weakened, and finally turned into a shrill shriek as she was completely devoured by the Soul-Eating Demon.
After devouring Liu Yueru's essence and primordial spirit, the Soul-Devouring Ghost's aura surged, its form became more solid, its eyes turned blood red, and the Xuan Yin Ghost Qi around it became even thicker. It let out a violent shriek towards Luo Qing and the others, clearly regarding them as the next batch of prey.
Luo Qing's expression hardened, and he immediately addressed the crowd in a deep voice:
"Deng Feng, the eight of you, work together to activate the Golden Sun Divine Fire and trap this ghost!"
"yes!"
With a shout from Deng Feng and his eight companions, a large swath of crimson-gold flames surged forth, trapping the Soul-Devouring Ghost within a radius of about ten feet.
If it makes a breakout attempt, it will be blasted back by Luo Qing's punch.
Just as Luo Qing was considering whether to use the same trick again and kill the ghost with the Golden Divine Flame, a pitch-black jade box flew out from Liu Yueru's corpse, its surface shining with a dazzling forbidden light!
