Chapter 522: Chapter 522: 281: Recasting the Demonic Body, Late Stage of the Golden Core Realm_2

After Dugu Shanxuan explained the ins and outs of the situation, Lu Yun still had some doubts and tentatively asked, “Then why didn’t he completely erase your consciousness?”

Dugu Shanxuan pondered for a moment, then slowly said, “He wasn’t fully awakened, because my arrival forced him to revive ahead of schedule and he didn’t reach a perfect state. After hurriedly gravely injuring me, he sealed my consciousness and controlled my body to guard Dragon Lake City in order to prevent other powerful enemies from coming to disturb it.”

“So he’s still in Dragon Lake City.” A glint flashed in Lu Yun’s eyes.

“That’s right, he’s still in that blood pool.” Dugu Shanxuan saw that Lu Yun seemed somewhat moved, so he said, “The two of us definitely won’t be a match for him. It’s better to go back and report this situation to the Army Commanders.”

Lu Yun shook his head: “It takes at least several days to go back and forth, and by then, the other party might have already left Dragon Lake City. We have to get rid of him quickly before he fully recovers, otherwise, there will be endless trouble.”

In fact, based on Dugu Shanxuan’s words, he had inferred that the other party’s strength shouldn’t be much stronger than the Golden Core Realm late stage.@@novelbin@@

Otherwise, even if he was interested in the opponent, he wouldn’t dare to take such a risk.

“Lu Yun, don’t take such risks. That guy’s power is just too terrifying,” Dugu Shanxuan looked fearfully and warily at the depths of Dragon Lake City, then said, “We should hurry up and leave. If we’re discovered by him, we won’t be able to escape even if we want to.”

Seeing Dugu Shanxuan’s fearful and wary expression, Lu Yun really wanted to say that the opponent was powerful, but only in comparison to him.

As for me, it’s not that big of a deal.

“Here’s what we’ll do – I’ll stay here and watch, keeping the enemy from escaping. General Dugu, you go back first and report the situation here to the various Army Commanders,” Lu Yun looked at Dugu Shanxuan.

Knowing that he couldn’t change Lu Yun’s mind, Dugu Shanxuan reluctantly agreed.

He knew in his heart that it was not very likely for him to persuade Lu Yun to leave with him.

If it weren’t for his severe injuries and lack of combat strength, he would stay and face danger together with Lu Yun. After all, he owed his life to Lu Yun.

However, now that he was in such a state, with his strength at its lowest point, staying would only drag Lu Yun down. The best choice was to leave as soon as possible and seek help.

With some unease, Dugu Shanxuan instructed, “I’ll go seek help now, but Lu Yun, you have to promise me not to enter rashly.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t gamble with my own safety,” Lu Yun nodded in response.

Half a quarter of an hour later.

Lu Yun headed towards the center of Dragon Lake City.

Just as Dugu Shanxuan had said, the place was full of bones, emitting a strong Demonic Power, giving people an extremely uncomfortable feeling.

“This Demonic Power is somewhat similar to the power in the Blood Slaughter Secret Realm, but not exactly the same.”

Lu Yun’s eyes were mysterious and majestic, full of faint golden light intertwined with dazzling Runes, as if piercing through everything, staring directly at the depths emitting a strong Demonic Power.

“In that direction.”

Lu Yun’s eyes suddenly narrowed, and then his body shuddered slightly.

In the depths of the densely packed bones, thick Demonic Power converged, and a blood-red Evil Qi enveloped a bright red blood pool.

And in the blood pool, there was a naked young man sitting cross-legged, barely visible.

Countless sword essence blood and Demonic Power gathered at his Dantian, being refined and absorbed by him.

Lu Yun quickly moved in that direction, and as he was about to approach, he noticed that the young man’s eyes seemed to move slightly, and then the speed of refining the essence blood increased greatly, making the surrounding demonic aura more intense.

“Let me see who you really are,” Lu Yun’s eyes showed a hint of doubt.

Immediately, he flashed to the sky above the blood pool and used all his strength to gather on his fist, striking it out.

Boom!

Powerful force erupted, like Earth-shattering, and the layer of Blood Fiendish Force shield surrounding the blood pool instantly collapsed.

The scorching power evaporated the blood pool in an instant, and the powerful force was completely blasted onto the young man.

However, in just a fraction of a breath, the young man’s eyes opened wide, and his body flickered before disappearing from the blood pool.

“Although I went through some hardships along the way, I finally managed to condense a decent Demonic Body.”

The black-robed young man stood firmly in the void, flexing his limbs before turning his gaze to Lu Yun.

“Huh? It’s you?!”

He was no stranger to Lu Yun. He had once encountered a Golden Body Realm lad just after he had reincarnated through possession, and was forced to crush an extremely expensive Spatial Talisman to escape.

Unexpectedly, in just over half a year, the other party had advanced from the peak of the Golden Body Realm to the peak of the Rune Seed Realm, raising their level by a whole realm.

As the black-robed youth observed Lu Yun, Lu Yun was also observing him.

“I’m curious, I feel a sense of familiarity with you, but no matter how much I search my memory, I can’t find any memories about you,”

Having said that, Lu Yun didn’t wait for the other party to answer and continued, “In my feeling, we should have met and even fought before.”

The black-robed youth’s pupils flashed with black light and his face transformed into another appearance.

The crimson pupils, the handsome face, combined with the rich demonic power in his body, quickly merged with a figure in Lu Yun’s mind.

“So it’s you, the defeated loser!”

Lu Yun’s face turned cold, the killing intent revealed: “I let you escape by a fluke last time, but this time you have no chance.”

“Hahaha, well, you are the first one who dares to speak like this with me.”

Han Feng laughed loudly, his laughter filled with an extreme chill.

He was a magnificent Demon Venerable, but he was completely defenseless against a mere Golden Body Realm opponent. This was undoubtedly a disgrace to him.

Now that he has recast his demonic body, he must regain his lost honor, or he would be unworthy of his title as the Demon Venerable.

As Han Feng’s last words fell, the atmosphere became completely quiet.

The two stood opposite each other, their hands folded.

There was no visible movement, but the surrounding flow of air gradually solidified.

In an instant, everything seemed to be frozen.

In Han Feng’s profound black and white eyes, there was a crimson color, giving a strange and sinister feeling.

Within those mysterious and deep eyes, it seemed like everything would sink.

In Lu Yun’s eyes, a purple thunderbolt appeared.

Then, in an instant, a shocking thunderclap exploded, directly bombarding Han Feng in front of him.

At the same time, a black light emerged from Han Feng’s brow, colliding with the thunderbolt light.

In a flash, a fierce fluctuation came from the sky above Dragon Lake City, accompanied by the birth of this dazzling light.

Han Feng took a step forward, the aura around him suddenly escalated, his realm rose from nothing to something.

Origin Fluid Realm, Golden Body Realm, early Rune Seed Realm, Perfection of Rune Seed Realm-

Still not stopping there, early Golden Core Realm, mid Golden Core Realm, and then late Golden Core Realm.

Rich demonic power and vast laws surrounded, Han Feng’s profound gaze fell on Lu Yun fiercely.

It was a condescending gaze, with a contemptuous look, like a god looking down on commoners.

“Now that I’ve rebuilt my demonic body, my strength is incomparable to the past. Killing you would be like killing an ant.”

With that said, Han Feng reached out his hand, a pitch-black palm filled with dense demonic power slapped towards Lu Yun. The powerful air currents crushed in all directions, and the void trembled violently under the attack.

This palm’s might was probably no less than the full force of a peak Golden Core Realm expert.

“Just a defeated loser from the past!”

Lu Yun took a step forward, and the momentum around his body exploded. With all the fluctuations dispersed, he slashed out with his sword.

Heaven and Earth Draw Saber Slash!

Against such a powerful enemy, he held nothing back.

The moment he made a move, it was a Second level Divine Ability.

Seeing the sword, Han Feng’s original contemptuous gaze suddenly changed.

“You’ve actually advanced your Divine Ability to the Second level!”
