Chapter 512: Chapter 508: Break Free Chapter 512: Chapter 508: Break Free Just as the smile spread across Qian Tong's face, a sudden change occurred!

Shen Luo abruptly lifted his head, and a glint of light flashed across his eyes. The magic spell in his hands ceased, and he softly uttered a word: “Go.”

As soon as his voice fell, Qian Tong found a dazzling red light emitting in front of him. A bunch of crimson flames soared like blooming phoenix immortal flowers.

He was startled at first, but soon discovered that although the flames looked fierce, they didn't seem to have any scorching heat.

Just then, a slender flame suddenly shot up, darting towards his eyes.

Realizing the danger, Qian Tong's soul trembled as if he had seen the most terrifying weapon. Subconsciously, he tossed away the Pure Yang Sword Embryo.

Upon seeing this, Shen Luo's thought immediately moved, and the Pure Yang Sword Embryo wrapped in the crimson flames rushed over and pierced directly into the sticky black liquid.

As soon as the Pure Yang Sword Embryo arrived, the black viscous liquid was ignited by its flames, burning a large hole directly through it.

The Sword Embryo continued to plunge forward, its flames burning relentlessly, the hole in the black liquid grew deeper and deeper. The sticky substance wrapped around Shen Luo was also consumed by the fire, turning into wisps of smoke and disappearing.

“Is this… Red Lotus Karmic Fire?” Qian Tong abruptly realized, a trace of fear flashing in his eyes.

This kind of flame from the underworld purgatory is especially good at restraining Yin Soul Ghosts and poses a great threat to a monk's divine soul. Once it carelessly invades the Sea of Knowledge, it will burn the divine soul to nothingness, leaving only an empty shell of a body.

Fortunately, the amount of Red Lotus Karmic Fire in the Pure Yang Sword Embryo was limited, which gave him the chance to throw away the Sword Embryo and spare his life.

After Shen Luo freed himself, he immediately used the Slanting Moon Steps to enter the passageway opened by the Pure Yang Sword Embryo. The moment he leaped out of the Killing Ghost, he was caught by the Pure Yang Sword Embryo, turned into a red rainbow light, and quickly escaped into the distance.

Qian Tong was busy cleaning up the aftermath and could only watch his figure recede into the distance, feeling increasingly furious.

By the time Elder Cangmu and Nu Chuan noticed, it was, however, too late.

It was only after the flames had completely extinguished that Qian Tong managed to collect the Killing Ghost. He turned to find Elder Cangmu and Nu Chuan speeding towards him.

“Qian Tong, what happened?” Elder Cangmu asked angrily.

“That kid played a trick on me. He had Red Lotus Karmic Fire on him, which nearly injured me,” said Qian Tong seriously.

“Red Lotus Karmic Fire?” Nu Chuan furrowed her brows, her expression also becoming quite grim.

“I suspect he might have something to do with the Underworld; he might have been sent by them to investigate,” Qian Tong continued.

His words successfully shifted Elder Cangmu and Nu Chuan's focus from Shen Luo's escape to the investigation of the Underworld.

“If that's true, we can't stay here any longer. We have to find another place, at least moving to the southern part of the city, the South City Da'an District,” said Elder Cangmu grimly after a long time.

“Even so, Qian Tong, you cannot escape blame,” Nu Chuan said coldly.

Qian Tong nodded, not bothering to argue. However, his hatred for Shen Luo in his heart had deepened.

Meanwhile, Shen Luo, while dealing with the intrusion of Yin Sha Qi in his body, urged the Pure Yang Sword Embryo to fly at full speed, escaping from this area as quickly as possible and heading towards Chang Le Alley in East City.

Along the way, he could see smoke billowing everywhere in the city, with large numbers of people fleeing to the north under the protection of the city guards and government officials.

He did not dare to stop until he reached Xuanhua Fang and returned to his own courtyard in Chang Le Alley before landing.

The alley was eerily quiet at this point, with corpses everywhere but not a single living person to be seen.

Feeling somewhat uneasy, Shen Luo appeared in the mansion. After a brief inspection, he felt slightly relieved as the formations arranged in the courtyard were still intact, indicating that no outsider had broken in.

Just then, a voice suddenly came from a shadow in a corner of the wall.

“Master, you are back.”

Immediately after, the figure of the Ghost General emerged from it, appearing before him.

“What happened in Chang Le Alley?” Shen Luo asked with a frown.

“Master, after you left, a large number of ghosts attacked again, and I managed to slay some. Later, the Government Official led his troops here, protecting the remnants of the people and retreated towards the Imperial City in North City. I returned to the courtyard to wait for you,” the Ghost General said.

“You did well. Go back to the Qiankun Bag first. There are many Yin Sha Qi accumulated inside, you refine and absorb them first,” Shen Luo nodded and said.

“Yes.” The Ghost General responded, shrunk his figure, and flew into the Qiankun Bag.

After that, Shen Luo glanced around the courtyard, turned his wrist, took out several triangular formation flags from the Linlang Ring, set them up in the courtyard. As the current situation had changed, the simple array he had set up earlier was not enough.

After finishing all of this, he slowly walked back to his room.

As soon as he sat down, Shen Luo's chest rose and fell violently, and he spouted out a mouthful of bruised blood.

He hurriedly sat upright, began to run his Mana with both hands forming a magic spell, attempting to recover. The Pure Yang Sword Embryo, due to its previous severe consumption, unresponsive after several attempts to play it.

Shen Luo had to slow down and wait for half a moment before trying again.

This time, the Sword Embryo didn't remain silent and motionless, but began to move slowly within his meridians, weaving between his Qiao acupoints, slowly pushing out the Yin Sha Qi that had invaded inside, out of his body bit by bit.

Shen Luo did not waste these Yin Qi and collected them all into the Qiankun Bag.

Just then, a strange noise suddenly came from outside the house.

Shen Luo immediately became alert. He stood up and came to the window on the wall, pushing it open to look outside. He saw that the array in the courtyard was emitting strange movements, indicating Yin Soul Ghosts were coming closer.

“Not right, according to the time, it should be after the 'si' time and should have been broad daylight. Why is it not yet?” Shen Luo suddenly looked up at the sky, only to see a dense black cloud covering the sky, no daylight could be seen.

Dark clouds pressed down on the city, not too high from the ground, with swirling Yin wind visible within it, filling the sky with the oppressive aura.

As Shen Luo was in a state of alarm, the response from the array in the courtyard became larger and larger, beginning to emit waves of blue light.

With a loud “Boom” sound!

A wall of the courtyard next to the gate tower suddenly collapsed, and a pitch-black figure over ten feet tall rushed in. It was a zombie clad in rusty armor that rushed in, stepping on the array on the ground of the courtyard.

The few triangular flags connected to the array hummed, and under the traction of the array, they all rushed towards the armored zombie. After surrounding it, they all exploded.

Yellow flames erupted from the small flags, which instantly engulfed the armored zombie and burned fiercely.

The zombie frantically patted the flames on its body, but it was no use. Instead, the flames wrapped around various parts of its body, and it howled miserably, emitting a foul smelling black smoke.

Seeing this, Shen Luo raised his hand and waved, a crimson sword light shot out, and quickly flew back.

The armored zombie's head fell on the ground, the howling sound abruptly ended.

However, the noise it had made had attracted many Yin Soul Ghosts and brought them closer. Shen Luo knew he could no longer stay here, planning to immediately head to Duke Cheng's Mansion.

After tidying up a bit, he immediately left the small courtyard, galloping towards the direction of the North City.
