The Lord of Void and Real
Chapter 1071

Chapter 1071: Chapter 1068: Decay Chapter 1071: Chapter 1068: Decay The Green-skinned Demon looked at the departing back of the One-horned Demon, hesitated for a moment, but still pounced towards the Human Woman, biting down towards her neck, and a gush of blood immediately squirted out.

The Green-skinned Demon's eyes filled with blood when excited by the scent of blood, uncontrollable excitement surged through him, and he opened his bloody mouth wide, ready to tear and bite into the woman.

It was then that a Dragon Chant suddenly exploded in the air.

The Golden Dragon Horn Cone, flickering with golden light, descended from the sky, aiming straight for the Green-skinned Demon's head.

The latter, preoccupied with the pleasure of the woman's blood filling his throat, was unprepared at the time, and was about to be pierced through the head with one strike.

But at that moment, an angry roar came from the direction of the valley exit, and a purple light shot over, striking the Dragon Horn Cone and exploding with a loud bang.

The scattered purple light dissipated like fireworks, the Dragon Horn Cone merely quivered violently, then immediately stabilized and continued to plunge downwards.

The Green-skinned Demon had now come to his senses, with green light surging all over his body, his skin cracking and flipping out inch by inch, actually condensing into a layer of thick green scale armor.

“Hiss…”

A sound of flesh and blood splitting rang out, as the Dragon Horn Cone directly pierced through the Green-skinned Demon's scale armor, entering his body from the back of the neck, and before he could react further, a dazzling golden light shone on the body of the cone.

“Aow…”

Along with the Dragon Chant, a golden dragon soared into the sky, flying into high altitude.

The Green-skinned Demon's body was likewise shattered by the golden dragon, turning into a pile of flesh.

A pitch-black figure enveloped in Demonic Qi flew out from the shattered corpse, and in a flash, entered the Void, but it seemed that preparations had been made ahead, as a dense net of golden light interwoven with swords had already been formed.

The pitch-black figure collided head-on into the net of swords, and was immediately cut into pieces, dissipating.

All of this, from the fall of the Dragon Horn Cone to the death of the Green-skinned Demon, happened in just a few breaths, the rapid change of events was so quick that it even shocked the One-horned Demon, who for a moment was somewhat unable to react.

A voice rang out in Shen Luo's Sea of Knowledge: “You have killed a member of the Demon Race, earning two points, accumulating a total of three points.”

“Thank you, Young Master, for saving my life…” the woman behind him said with a pale face, holding her wounded neck.

“Protect yourself and heal your injuries quickly,” Shen Luo said. As soon as the words were out, he suddenly felt something was off.

The next instant, he abruptly came to his senses, his figure swiftly turning.

A Longsword bathed in Green Light thrust past his waist and abdomen, striking empty space, while Shen Luo, taking advantage of the situation, slapped out with his hand, sending the Human Woman who had tried to assassinate him tumbling to the ground.

After the woman fell to the ground, a point of Spiritual Light in the center of her eyebrows dissipated, and her body, which was only a little depleted of vitality before, suddenly had all its life forces completely drained, turning into a dead corpse.

Shen Luo's gaze shifted, his eyes scanning the surroundings, gradually becoming more severe.

“The Soul Control Technique, such despicable acts are hardly proper, right?” he snorted coldly, angrily declared.

When Shen Luo had felt the woman's aura up close just now, he sensed something was amiss, and upon hearing the reminder in his Sea of Knowledge that he had accumulated three points, he immediately understood.

Among these three points, one was his own, another was from the Green-skinned Demon, and as for the last point, of course, it was from the Human Woman who had already been killed by the Demon.

The wind howled all around, with no one responding. The one-horned demon looked around guardedly.

Just then, a strange fragrance drifted in, and the previously barren canyon burst into life, with flowers blooming everywhere.

Shen Luo subconsciously urged his sword technique, and the Pure Yang Sword Embryo floating by his side immediately burst into sword light, slicing all the flowers and grass within a meter radius around him.

Seeing this, the one-horned demon hurriedly mimicked Shen Luo, waving his hand to ignite a ring of Black Demon Flame around him, turning the suddenly appeared vegetation into ashes.

However, the ashes did not disperse but rose with the wind and wrapped around the one-horned demon.

The latter, seeing this, intensified his Demonic Flames in an attempt to repel the ashes.

To his dismay, the ashes seemed to pass through the Demonic Flames as if they were insubstantial, sticking to his body, layer by layer, like wrapping a rice dumpling, encasing him completely.

The one-horned demon was shocked and tried to tear off the ashes on his body, but no matter how much he struggled, the black ashes clung to his skin like dog skin plaster, sealing his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose.

Shen Luo stood not far away, coldly watching the one-horned demon clawing wildly as if in a frenzy, knowing that he had fallen into an illusion crafted by a hidden adversary, a victim of the Soul Control Technique.

Earlier, when he had cut down the flowers with his sword, a very subtle divine soul breath also tried to invade his Sea of Knowledge, but his Divine soul was much stronger than the Mahayana Stage and could not be shaken.

The divine soul breath was sensible, however, retreating immediately after finding it could not break through.

Shen Luo watched coldly as the one-horned demon was slowly consumed by the illusion, with no intention of helping, but instead was carefully on guard for any changes around him, to prevent himself from being ambushed again.

After a while, the individual lurking behind the scenes didn't show himself.

“Your Excellency, if you don't show yourself, I'll have to claim this guy's points,” Shen Luo provocatively said.

No sooner had he spoken than he waved his hand and the Dragon Horn Cone flashed golden light, stabbing straight at the one-horned demon's head.

Just as the Dragon Horn Cone was about to make contact, the one-horned demon's head burst open like a ripe watermelon, blood splattering everywhere.

A figure emerged within the blood spray, revealing a handsome young man.

“Immortal Clan…” Shen Luo remarked, surprised.

He had originally thought it would be some soul-enthralling member of the Demon Race, but to his surprise, it turned out to be a member of the Immortal Clan, a person Shen Luo somewhat recognized as having stood not too far from Ji Yao before the valley event.

“Daoist friend, no offense was meant. The previous soul control against that human woman was meant to target those two ugly demons and purposely attacked you to draw out the one-horned demon. It was not really intended for you,” said the young man with a smiling face, cupping his fist.

Shen Luo naturally did not believe his lies. If the intention was merely to lure the one-horned demon earlier, why then attack him with a divine soul mind technique?

If he had not been alert earlier, he might have already died at his hand.

“Spare me such pointless babble. I have no desire to quarrel, but don't come looking for trouble, or blame me for being merciless,” Shen Luo snorted coldly.

He took a Storage Ring off of each of the green-skinned demon and the human woman, then turned and left.

The young man from the Immortal Clan watched Shen Luo's retreating figure, smiled, his shape gradually fading and disappearing.

None of them noticed that the corpses of the three who had died earlier were decaying at a rapid rate, their flesh and blood turning into soil, and even the white bones gradually merging with the ground…
