The brightly lit palace, the tilted attic collapsed in the darkness in the distance, and the palace guards and soldiers holding torches shouted and screamed in unison.
"It fell down!!" "Protect the emperor! His Majesty is still there."
“…Don’t go over there!” “Be careful!”
Countless eyes intertwined, and saw a huge black shadow falling from the sky that had crashed into the roof of the palace. A voice shouted:
“Here we go!!!”
The huge insect body with centipedes hanging down slammed heavily on the palace square, and a loud noise was heard. The remaining force of the huge body pushed the floor tiles upside down, and they were plowed to the left and right. No matter whether the guards and soldiers who had not recovered their senses were hit by the flying broken bricks on their bodies and faces...
Some of them sat on the ground with their hands covering their foreheads, blood gushing out from between their fingers, and were then dragged away by their companions. Some were hit on the legs while screaming, and became limping. More of them were so shocked by the centipede monster that fell from the sky that they were speechless.
Zhang Lihua and other concubines who had hurriedly arrived with palace maids and eunuchs were standing in the distance. When they saw the huge insect corpse still slithering on the square, they opened their eyes wide and covered their mouths in fear.
At the side, Crown Prince Chen Jing pursed his lips, but his eyes were shining brightly. He clenched his fists and stared at the figure standing on the ferocious centipede's head.
"It's Mr. Lu..."
The entire palace square was shaking in the range of flickering flames. A red-headed centipede was slithering on the ground above its head. A green robe was rustling in the wind. Lu Liangsheng held the sword in one hand and let his leg hang diagonally. There was still some residual heat from the hysteria in his eyes. He glanced around and at first glance, he looked like an immortal riding a demon spirit and flying to the mortal world.
In front, Chen Shubao screamed “Ah ah…” in panic, and the guards on both sides fled away like crazy, leaving him alone sitting on the ground, no one paying any attention to him.
The moment he saw the scholar's face clearly, he remembered what the other party said that night when he was standing on the city wall. He screamed loudly, kicked with his feet, and moved backwards with his buttocks pressed against the ground.
"Don't come over here... Don't come over here!!"
Beep beep beep…
Bricks and stones were cracked and pushed flying. The emperor's panicked screams finally turned into a long cry of "Ah--". The centipede's head, which was the size of half the palace, with gray and white insect eyes, enlarged in his eyes.
boom!
boom!
There were two loud bangs, and the centipede's pair of long tentacles smashed the stone platform outside the Chengyun Hall. Chen Shubao's terrified scream slowly stopped. He opened his eyes wide to the extreme and looked at the insect jaws that almost touched the tip of his nose. His shoulders suddenly twitched, his toes straightened, and his face turned blue.
"Uh uh..."
Chen Shubao stared with his eyes wide open, his screams turned into low moans in his throat, and he fell straight back.
"His Majesty-"
There were screams all around, and the palace guards and soldiers rushed over, but when they saw the huge insect body, they hesitated and slowed down. They didn't dare to get too close, and stared at the figure in white and green robe on the huge corpse with caution.
"Is that person Lu Liangsheng?" "He must have killed this centipede monster."
"You are lying with your eyes open. The person is standing on the monster's head. If he didn't kill him, who else could have done it?"
"Go and see how His Majesty is doing?" "You go first..."
Amid the whispered conversation in the distance, Lu Liangsheng glanced at the emperor who was tilting his head and kicking his legs, without much expression.
"You're really lucky."
As he said that, he jumped off the red head of the centipede and glanced around. The soldiers who had wanted to move forward, held down their spears and retreated in unison.
With a light swing of the sword, Lu Liangsheng whispered, "You guys move away a little." Then he turned around and looked at Pu Du Ci Hang who was crawling on the ground motionless.
If he wanted to protect the people in the city, he could only swing his sword and kill it. Now that the crisis for the people had been eliminated, there was nothing to worry about.
"The Illustrated Classic of Mountains and Seas says that if a river or sea turns into a dragon, it must be a sin. It will break through the power and rush into the sky. It will be invisible for one day, and it will solidify its bones and muscles for four days. It will grow flesh and blood for ten days. It will be covered with scales and armor for fifteen days. After a month, dragon horns will grow..."
The scholar's lips trembled slightly as he recited slowly and softly. Suddenly, the crawling corpse began to tremble slightly, and the segments of the carapace cracked with a series of crisp sounds, extending from the tail all the way to the red head.
Soldiers all around were retreating in panic. The palace maids and eunuchs dragged the imperial concubine and the crown prince towards the main hall. The mother and son, and even everyone around them, turned around to look.
On the back of its long winding body, wisps of golden light extended from the cracks and crevices, illuminating the square of the main hall. The moment the centipede flew out of its body, its corpse gradually turned into spots of fire and dissipated in the wind, and the remaining demonic aura on its body also slowly melted away.
"hehe… "
The rising golden light entangled and merged into a beam of light. Amidst the cold laughter, it meandered in the air and the shape of a dragon could be vaguely seen.
“… Hahahaha… Lu Liangsheng, this Dharma Master thanks you for the favor!”
Over there, Lu Liangsheng looked indifferently at the dragon-shaped golden light that was rushing towards the night sky, and a brush appeared in his hand at some point.
"Really... You're welcome, Master."
He untied the cover on the brush head, waved his robe sleeves, and drew an ink line in the air with the brush tip, writing three big words: Dragon Binding Rope!
Just wave it towards the sky.
"go!"
In the empty air, a ray of Dharma light lit up, soared into the sky, and stretched longer and longer in the wind, chasing after Pu Du Ci Hang and instantly entangled the other's tail. The scholar's brush flipped over, and the ink line suddenly tied a knot, tightly binding the golden light.
"Transform into a dragon?! It's not that easy, get down here!!"
Reach out and grab the ink line, pulling it down.
"Roar—"
Above the imperial city, the winding dragon shape was held tightly in the night, unable to break free. After breaking out of its shell and transforming into a dragon, the cultivation base that it had before Pu Du Ci Hang was gone. After gathering the dragon spirit cultivation base and at least having a physical body, it was now the weakest.
"Look up at the sky!" "Oh my god..."
"Dragon! Dragon! That must be a dragon!!" "Hey, it seems like there's something pulling it from behind!!"
On the long street, the mood of the frightened citizens in the city suddenly changed. They looked at the golden dragon swimming in the night, and naturally saw that there was a black line binding it in the range of the golden light.
"Lu Liangsheng!"
Pu Du Ci Hang's angry voice resounded through the night sky. He wished he could turn back into a demon, tear the scholar into pieces, and send him to heaven.
However, just as it roared, another majestic and powerful voice came from far away in the north.
"Hahahaha!!! Lu Liangsheng, let me lend you a helping hand—"
Um?!
Pu Du Ci Hang twisted the golden light and shifted his sight. A huge magical power rushed in from the northern night. The power was like a raging fire, and it felt a burning pain before it even reached it.
"This monster, I have taken it away!!"
A figure broke through the darkness, with five fireballs burning around his shoulders and head. The man raised his wide sleeves with red patterns, and several black shadows rushed out from his sleeves, dragging with them the sound of "clattering" iron chains, and instantly hooked onto Pu Du Ci Hang.
Fire Prayer Cult?!
Lu Liangsheng saw five flames on the man's shoulders and head. He waved his fingers to tie the ink line to the long stone pillar, kicked his feet and jumped into the air. The Yuelong Sword glowed with magic light and he swung it forward fiercely.
at the same time.
Above the city wall, the City God in white and the four chief judges also looked over. The City God frowned.
"Evil demons and monsters!"
With a wave of the fake scepter in his hand, the four judges threw out the magic weapons in their hands. The white-robed City God also threw out the book in his hand. When he turned the page, the words shone with divine light that covered Pu Du Ci Hang.
Bang, bang, bang—
In a moment, the magic weapon and the moon collided with the man almost at the same time. The surging magic power was like the scorching sun illuminating the night sky, and the buildings in the imperial city below were swaying and shaking in the aftermath of the explosion.
The clothes and armor of the soldiers, guards, palace maids and eunuchs could be heard being torn and ripped. They screamed and ran to hide in the hall. Chen Jing and Zhang Lihua, mother and son, looked out the window at the night sky, their faces turned pale, as if they were being punished by lightning from heaven, and they could not help shaking.
boom!
boom!
…
The Dharma light appeared frequently around the golden dragon shape, hanging in the night sky. The Holy Fire Master mentioned by Lu Liangsheng fluttered his sleeves, and dispersed the Dharma light with one palm after another, and swung the iron chain in his sleeve to block the Yuelong Sword that was coming at him.
Hehehe…
Ha ha ha ha-
He was tall and strong, and he used an iron chain to block Lu Liangsheng's sword, and his laughter gradually became louder.
"Lu Liangsheng, you have destroyed the foundation of Huaiyizhou and damaged my spiritual objects. I will accept the soul of this great demon!!"
The magic power drove the laughter and words so powerful that Lu Liangsheng was frightened and even the sound of the whole city was suppressed by this sound.
“Don’t even think about it!” The golden light of the magic book of the City God in white became even brighter.
Lu Liangsheng fell back and stood on the stone pillar of the imperial city. He waved his hand, pulled the ink line into his hand, bit his index finger to reveal a few spots of bright red, and wiped out the ink line drawn by magic power.
The three parties pulled almost at the same time!
"you!!"
Pu Du Ci Hang raised his head and looked at the moonlight and the clouds, and heard sharp roars and the roar of dragons in the sky.
Roar~~
Between heaven and earth, golden light exploded, splitting into three.
One ray of light was collected into the sleeve of Holy Fire Master, and the other was absorbed into the City God's Book of Magic.
The last one followed the ink line, winding and swimming, and disappeared into the moonlight in the blink of an eye.
