The Lord of Void and Real
Chapter 396

Chapter 396: Chapter 392: Strength Greatly Enhanced Again Chapter 396: Chapter 392: Strength Greatly Enhanced Again A yellow beam shot out at an incredible speed, ignoring the jade green Ruyi to directly strike at the green-robed man. Almost instantly, it arrived above his head, turning into a yellow seal – this was the Five Peaks True Form Seal.

The Five Peaks True Form Seal flashed with a dazzling light, and five earth-colored mountain shadows emerged, pressing down.

Shen Luo, depending on the Ninety-Nine Wealth Technique, had already refined all the prohibitions of this Five Peaks True Form Seal. It summoned five mountain shadows, each of which was larger than when Tong Guan had previously activated it.

The entire sky suddenly darkened, and the air became much heavier as if five real mountains were descending.

The face of the green-robed man instantly changed. His robe fluttered quickly, and an earth-colored round shield surfaced alongside glittering light.

The round shield was carved with four animal-shaped reliefs: the Azure Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird, and the Black Tortoise or Four Symbols. It gave off four dazzling yellow lights, radiating a powerful spiritual fluctuation, even more so than the jade green Ruyi.

As soon as the shield appeared, it rose into the sky, rotating towards the five mountain peaks.

When the two collided, a loud bang rang out, and the earth-yellow round shield immediately displayed a state of weakness, being pressed straight from mid-air down but the yellow light on the shield was still pure and showed no signs of breaking.

The green-robed man beneath was greatly shocked. It was too late for him to dodge. With a rumbling explosion, the five mountain shadow illusions landed on the ground, suppressing him underneath, instantly silencing him.

The nearby ground shook violently, and within a radius of several miles around, it was as if an earth dragon was rolling over.

With the green-robed man suppressed, the light from the jade green Ruyi also disappeared completely and fell from mid-air.

“What!”

Ye Zhong was about to stimulate the Mountain Chopping Axe for another attack, but seeing the green-robed man being suppressed in an instant left him stunned, and he looked towards Xie Yuxin in surprise.

Xie Yuxin had been augmented with the Divine Armor Horse Talisman. Her speed far exceeded those Qi Refining Stage disciples of the Bishui Sect. Despite their numbers, they could not catch her shadow, and she led them on a wild goose chase amidst the nearby forest.

Ye Zhong felt a sudden jolt in his heart, an instinctive urge to retreat emerging.

At that moment, a faint sound came from the ground beneath his feet, and a pink skull emerged.

With a sharp whistling sound, a pink fog arrow was shot out from the skull's mouth, piercing through Ye Zhong's right calf.

The skin and flesh around the fog arrow swiftly turned pink and spread rapidly.

He instantly lost all sensation in the part of his right leg below the knee, becoming extraordinarily numb, and this numbing sensation was spreading upwards rapidly.

A look of terror crossed Ye Zhong's face. He turned to flee, not caring about the green-robed man or the Bishui Sect disciples anymore.

He didn't know what type of God's Power he had used, but he didn't immediately collapse from the poison. His legs limped but he still moved quickly, disappearing into the darkness ahead within a few breaths.

The Bishui Sect disciples around him fell into a panic when they saw the green-robed man being suppressed and Ye Zhong fleeing.

One of them shouted, and they all turned to chase after Ye Zhong, disappearing without a trace within a few breaths.

Shen Luo's eyes flickered, but he didn't chase after Ye Zhong. Instead, he stepped towards the suppressed green-robed man.

At that moment, a dazzling yellow light erupted from beneath the five mountain peaks, causing them to tremble.

Then all the yellow light instantly converged, and with a 'whoosh', it shot towards the distance.

Shen Luo's expression changed slightly, and with a wave, he made a gesture with his hands.

With a low hum, a yellow halo emitted from the five peaks, forming a giant bowl-shaped barrier which quickly veiled the nearby ground and went deep underground.

However, the dazzling yellow radiance flew out before the descent of the yellow light shield, disappearing without a trace in an instant.

“Earth Escape Technique? Indeed, he is worthy of being a disciple of Mount Putuo.” Shen Luo slightly furrowed his eyebrows, but soon relaxed, murmuring to himself.

While speaking, he chanted an incantation and made a gesture with his hand.

The five peaks then flew up, turning back into a yellow seal before landing in his hand.

There was no sign of the green-robed man underneath the mountain peak – the round shield also disappeared.

Shen Luo did not seem to mind. Even if he had managed to capture the green-robed man, he did not intend to kill him. After all, the man was a disciple of Mount Putuo. He didn't want to attract any trouble.

He turned around and walked over to pick up the jade-green ruyi.

The jade-green ruyi was lying in the distance and was not brought along when the green-robed man used the Earth Escape Technique to leave.

Shen Luo held the ruyi, which felt icy cold like jade, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Looking at the situation just now, the rank of this ruyi should not be low. It's likely of top-grade, and together with the Mother-Child Sword that he obtain today, he had reaped a good harvest.

He put away the jade-green ruyi with the flip of his hand and stepped over to the corpse of the bald, burly man.

The poisonous gas surrounding the burly man had already been dispersed by Ye Zhong's axe, so there was not much to worry about. However, the potent poison on the body made it unwise to touch.

Shen Luo waved his hand, causing a stream of water to fly over and transform into two lifelike water palms. The water palms touched the body of the burly man, searching and retrieving several items.

A water-blue token, a white jade slip, a dark green book, and a green small bag that was previously hanging around the man's waist.

“Elder Brother Shen, are you alright?” Xie Yuxin asked, quickly flying over from a distance.

“I'm fine, how about you?” Shen Luo quickly put these items into the stone box without having time to examine them closely, responding to Xie Yuxin's query.

“Just dealing with a bunch of Qi Refining Stage small fry, especially with your wondrous talisman to enhance our powers, naturally it was not a problem. I didn't expect your strength to have improved quite significantly just within a short period of unseeing.” Xie Yuxin took a deep look at Shen Luo and said with a touch of emotion.

“Elder Brother Xie is being too kind, it's not advisable to stay here for long, we better leave soon.” Shen Luo replied.

As they were speaking, he summoned another stream of water, executed the Technique of Taming Beasts and Summoning Spirits, and opened up a black passage. Then, he sent it underground.

Sea Caterpillar Maochun disappeared after drilling into the ground through the passage.

Although Maochun did not possess any direct offensive capabilities, it had always been his trump card. Even if he had a good relationship with Xie Yuxin, he didn't want the latter to see it.

Xie Yuxin's gaze flickered but did not ask any questions.

The pair didn't stay for long. They quickly tidied up some traces of the battle, left the Heavenly Pit immediately, and traveled non-stop until dawn. By then, they had already left Dalishi Mountain and arrived near the Eastern Sea Pinnacle.

As the two had just experienced a big battle and had been rushing non-stop for half a night, they were quite worn out. As such, they decided to stop, find hidden spots of their own and rest.

Shen Luo sat cross-legged under a giant rock, operating the Nameless Cultivation Technique to recover the consumed mana.

After amalgamating Dragon's Blood, the speed at which he absorbed the Water Spirit Qi significantly increased. In less than half an hour, he had fully recovered his mana.
