Chapter 553: 0355 Two Punches Shatter the Demon King’s Dream, Master Lu’s Decade-Long Transformation! (8.2k Merged Double Chapter)_3

"We should retreat, even Martial Arts Geniuses can’t beat the Lesser Demon King, but they can escape."

...

"Finally got a day off, wanted to sleep well for once, these demons are really annoying."

Lu Chenzhou woke up from his slumber.

In his dream, he ascended to the Absolute Peak, defeating his former idol, the Cangtian Dragon King!

Brother Tiger was still cultivating nearby, and Lu Chenzhou summoned Dog Ghost: "Keep an eye on your Second Brother Tiger!"

Dog Ghost nodded like a pecking chicken. Although it had the strength of a late Second Realm, it was the first to arrive, yet this mortal Tiger Clan had become the leader.

After securing the windows and doors, Lu Chenzhou stood on the rooftop, stretching lazily.

Shasha—a sound echoed as the scales of Yaksha Armor clashed with each other, flowing like water.

It had awakened as well, the hunt was upon them!

Lu Chenzhou leapt into the night, disappearing into the sky, as his telekinesis spread out, scouting for enemies.

...

"Kill!"

A squad of heavily armed soldiers wielded firearms, shooting at the aquatic demons around them.

These demons either spat water arrows or spewed venom. Though they weren’t as formidable as the Snake Demon, their sheer numbers included many Great Demons.

"There are too many, what’s going on? The demon tide tonight is abnormal."

"No idea, they say it’s for Lu Chenzhou."

"Launching a demon tide for one person? These demon races must be insane."

More demons surged forward. Even ordinary people fought with firearms. In the Dark Night Era, everyone was a soldier!

Suddenly, an ordinary Third Realm Snake Demon wielding a long spear entered the battlefield.

"Hehehe, die, all of you!"

Its protective demon energy formed a barrier, allowing it to move among the crowd unimpeded, ignoring the bullets.

A Second Realm officer, equipped with military exoskeleton, clashed with the spear with his roaring chainsaw sword, sparks flying.

"A few of you, come help me encircle and kill this beast!"

A group surrounded the Snake Demon, fearless of death.

Others retreated towards the Inner City under the cover of the Martial Artists.

Suddenly, an archaic zither melody floated through the night sky~

Instantly, the soldiers on site envisioned scenes of camps, drums, generals, formations, marchers, ambushes, and epic battles in their minds.

Zheng, zheng, zheng—the zither music became urgent, as if ten thousand troops encircled Yun Meng Base City.

A figure sat in the void up ahead, one leg crossed over the other, playing a zither set on his lap, gazing forward.

This person wore black armor, carried a long spear on his back, had the physique of a strong general, and with this elegant zither, he truly...made for a unique picture.

The zither music grew more intense, boosting the soldiers’ morale, even enhancing their Qi-Blood slightly.

"This is the ’Ten Sides Ambush Song’!"

"My body is filled with power!"

"Trample the heavens, be wild and unruly! Kill!"

"Whoa, this seems to be the ’Myriad Ridges Pine Wind’, one of the top ten famous zithers, every zither player’s dream instrument!"

"Tiger Form Fist Lu Chenzhou? And he can play zither? I’m shocked."

The warriors fought with increasing bravery, while the demons trembled under the zither music.

The Six-Armed Snake Demon, sensing something was wrong, broke through the encirclement with its spear, leading a group of demons toward Lu Chenzhou.

"Kill him, that’s Lu Chenzhou! Quickly, summon the Lesser Demon King, the target is here!"

Staring at the wave of demons ahead, Lu Chenzhou’s face remained calm as a mirror. With a sweep of his right hand across the strings, his chest heaved, and he released a thunderous breath. A circle of invisible sound waves manifested into a visible airwave, transforming into twenty-four golden giant sword phantoms, spinning outwards, plowing the ground, demons shattering into pieces from thin air.

Bang, bang, bang! Even the Great Demons couldn’t withstand it!

As the song ended, the horde of demons fell to their deaths.

Only the Six-Armed Snake Demon roared, thrusting its spear toward Lu Chenzhou.

Lu Chenzhou flipped the zither, using it as a shield to block the spear.

Gold and iron clashed, sparks flying.

Though the zither was merely a low-class Divine Weapon, as one of the top ten famous zithers, its material was excellent and not even Lesser Demon Kings could easily destroy it.

Thus, Lu Chenzhou used it as a shield.

"Human, die for me!"

The Snake Demon withdrew its spear and slashed at Lu Chenzhou again.

The zither flew into the air, Lu Chenzhou freed his hand, his left hand glowing golden, giant as if holding up the heavens, clutching the spear.

The terrifying attack of over 180 ding was caught firmly by his golden giant hand.

Instantly, his left arm’s muscles and bones hummed and cracked, seemingly dissipating some mountain-crushing force.

"This human’s defense... how is it so terrifying?" The Snake Demon was stunned.

A lotus with 36 petals blossomed underfoot, the Tiger Subduing Seal flew out, striking the Snake Demon’s brow. Lu Chenzhou drew the Tiger Gall Spear from his back, using the Inch Force technique, thrusting the spearhead onto the Snake Demon’s chest. This powerful and heavy strike pierced through the Snake Demon’s impervious scales, penetrating its chest. Golden flames and thunder interweaved with True Qi, flowing through the spear and into the Snake Demon, blinding light shot to the sky, black smoke filled the street, the Snake Demon screamed in pain, demon energy ceaselessly dissipating, transforming into black water to resist the force.

Lu Chenzhou switched from spear to fist, his arms like hammers, smashing atop the Snake Demon’s head with the force of Divine Mountain Pressing.

Martial Arts Killing Move: Divine Mountain Pressing!

The Snake Demon was nailed into the ground, its eyes popped out, fearful expression still taking its last breath.

Lu Chenzhou collected the demon’s corpse, caught the falling zither and slung it over his back, walking away boldly.

The crowd on the street erupted with excitement.

"So impressive, killing enemies with zither music!"

"Master Lu, you’re awesome!"

"Chief Lu, a Lesser Demon King is looking for you, you better leave Yun Meng Base City soon."

Lu Chenzhou’s expression shifted, he climbed on a cloud, ascending to the hundred-zhang sky, circling to survey the whole city, battle intent soaring to the heavens!

"Lesser Demon King? Wonderful!"

...

"Don’t run!"

"Come chase me!"

"Cowardly human, dare you come down and fight me!"

"I don’t dare."

"..."

Ye Zhiqiu’s Qingping Sword had a divine ability: flying.
