The Lord of Void and Real
Chapter 1645 - 1641: Scheming

Chapter 1645: Chapter 1641: Scheming

"Refreshing." Wu Luo said with a clap and a laugh.

Then she nodded towards the Shadow War Leopard and the Profound Fire Divine Steed.

Understanding her meaning, they each walked towards the ancient war saber and the huge black gourd.

At this moment, a streak of light flashed beneath Shen Luo’s feet, and his figure instantly arrived at the edge of the pond, reaching out to pluck the Jade Orchid.

His movements were so swift that everyone present did not react in time, even startling the Shadow War Leopard and the Profound Fire Divine Steed into unconsciously hastening their pace towards the two treasures.

Just as Shen Luo’s palm was about to touch the Jade Orchid, Wu Luo’s figure also moved.

She drifted forward like a ghostly specter and instantly left the range of the Kunlun Mirror’s control. With a wave of her hand, several transparent crystal threads shot out, entangling Shen Luo’s outstretched palm.

"Immortal-binding Spider Silk..."

Before Shen Luo could resist, a strong binding force spread from the transparent threads, pulling his arm backward and then wrapping around his body.

Immediately after, a colored glaze brilliance shot out, landing directly above Shen Luo’s head, revealing a strangely shaped lamp, which resembled a treasure vase and was made of colored glaze.

Once the lamp appeared, it started to spin rapidly. Countless facets on its surface refracted myriad beams of light, crisscrossing and transforming into a dreamlike colored glaze radiance that enveloped Shen Luo.

Within the light, Shen Luo’s eyes instantly became dazed. The objects before him began to distort and change, light and shadow scattered, making him feel as if he were trapped in an illusionary realm of light, unable to muster any will to resist.

"Cousin..." Nie Caizhu shouted loudly upon seeing this.

The Enlightened Heavenly Beast flashed with blue light and dashed forward, not towards Shen Luo, but towards the black gourd that the Profound Fire Divine Steed was about to obtain.

Wu Luo let out a cold laugh and reappeared like a specter by the pond. She was in no hurry to attack Shen Luo; instead, she plucked the Jade Orchid first.

As Wu Luo pulled the Jade Orchid from the pond, the previously misty waters suddenly reversed their flow towards the orchid above. As they neared it, they turned into wisps of spirit mist, seeping into the body of the Orchid Immortal Grass.

"The spirit liquid reversing flow, truly a marvel. The grade of this Jade Orchid is even higher than I expected," Wu Luo said, overjoyed upon seeing this.

But just then, a flash of golden light appeared within the shadow behind a stone pillar, and a figure rapidly shot out. Moving so quickly that only an afterimage was left behind, this person had reached behind Wu Luo in an instant.

Before Wu Luo could react, her spine was fiercely struck by a Profound Yellow Long Staff, feeling as if her backbone was about to shatter and her internal organs were in turmoil. Spewing blood from her mouth, she was thrown out violently.

The Jade Orchid she held in her hand slipped from her grip, swept away by a stream of light.

Where the light gathered, there stood Shen Luo holding the Jade Orchid, not having time for a second glance before immediately storing it into his Storage Magical Tool.

Wu Luo barely steadied herself and turned back to see two Shen Luos standing there. She harshly pulled on the Immortal-binding Spider Silk without delay.

With a "swish" of sharp sound!

The transparent crystal thread glinted with cold light, and the "Shen Luo" that was bound was immediately sliced apart.

However, instead of flesh and bones, the severed corpse melted into a pool of liquid, inside which only a droplet of Shen Luo’s essence blood remained—and even that was instantly burnt to nothingness.

Turning to look at Nie Caizhu, who had not made a move, Wu Luo realized she had fallen for her illusion technique.

"When did it happen?" She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, but couldn’t wipe it clean.

"The moment we entered the great hall," Shen Luo replied generously.

Only then did Wu Luo realize the truth. When Shen Luo had entered the hall before them, Nie Caizhu had tampered with the Kunlun Mirror and hidden his real body in the shadow of a stone pillar, creating a false body to deceive them. They were so intent on outsmarting Shen Luo that they failed to notice any signs.

Just then, a sharp "clang" rang out, and a burst of emerald green light instantly lit up the entire great hall.

Shen Luo turned towards the sound, only to see that the Shadow War Leopard had already pulled the war saber that was slanted on the ground, and was now holding it in mid-air.

With mana infused into the blade, the dust covering it fell off like peeling stone, revealing the original glowing green color of the blade and emitting a resounding sword cry.

"It’s true, it really is the Hongming War Saber..." The Shadow War Leopard cried out excitedly.

Upon hearing this, Shen Luo’s brows also could not help but furrow.

The Hongming War Saber was indeed famous; even Fire Spirit Child had spoken highly of it.

This saber was a divine weapon from ancient times, forged in the same furnace as the Xuanyuan Sword. But when the saber was made, its saber aura soared to the heavens and its killing intent was too fierce, to the extent that it even threatened to turn on its wielder. As a result, the Yellow Emperor wished to destroy it with the Xuanyuan Sword.

However, perhaps because it was forged from the same furnace, the Xuanyuan Sword was unexpectedly unable to cut it down.

In the end, the Yellow Emperor had no choice but to impose a seal with a secret method and keep it preserved.

It was only then that the Shadow War Leopard noticed Wu Luo had been injured by Shen Luo and hurriedly gripped the war saber, charging over.

But he had only taken two steps when suddenly a muffled thud was heard, and a figure flew out sideways, nearly hitting him.

The Shadow War Leopard quickly dodged, only to see that the Profound Fire Divine Steed had been thrown over, crashing heavily against a stone pillar in the hall, with blood seeping from its nose and mouth, yet still clutching tightly to the huge black gourd it held.

At that moment, the Enlightened Heavenly Beast also chased after it, letting out a sharp scream. A visible soundwave immediately chased after the Profound Fire Divine Steed.

The previous injuries of the Profound Fire Divine Steed had not yet healed, and it was not the match for the Enlightened Heavenly Beast at that moment, especially while holding on to the black gourd, leaving it utterly defenseless.

Seeing this, the Shadow War Leopard flashed, blocking in front of him, gripping the Hongming War Saber tightly with both hands and slashing down at the soundwave.

A green light shone upon the long saber as a jade-like saber light burst forth, directly cutting through the soundwave and causing it to explode apart in the middle, turning into two powerful waves of force rushing to both sides.

Upon seeing that the saber was still sealed and yet not refined and could already unleash such formidable power, the Shadow War Leopard was even more overjoyed.

But before he could savor the moment of joy, a hand reached out from beside him, fiercely grabbing towards the long saber in his grip.

The Shadow War Leopard saw that it was Shen Luo coming to seize the saber, and immediately the blade turned, slashing horizontally towards him.

Shen Luo pressed his palm against the blade edge, flipped in the air, and landed a palm strike down onto the Shadow War Leopard.

The Shadow War Leopard sneered from the corner of his mouth as a black light suddenly flashed on his body.

Shen Luo felt as if a shadow flitted before his eyes, and then immediately a sharp pain erupted in his chest, as he was struck by a great force and sent flying backwards.

As he retreated, his sleeves fluttered and stirred up a great whooshing sound. Sword edges howled forth, and eleven Pure Yang Flying Swords shot towards the Shadow War Leopard all at once.
