The significance of the Demon Luo Scripture
The group of more than ten Cultivators, all of whom were above the Spell Control Stage, was indeed a formidable force. Although Lu Yuling skillfully used ice Spell to entangle three of them, there were still seven or eight others rushing towards Zhuge Xiang, including Ming Ying and Gu Mei, who had already reached the True Essence Realm.
"Phantom Cloak!" Zhuge Xiang sneered inwardly as he watched the person rushing towards him. He instantly activated the Phantom Cloak's ability, leaving an uncontrollable phantom Clone in place.
One after another, fierce Spell, Sword Qi, and arrow beams all landed on Zhuge Xiang's phantom, taking full force of these attacks.
The dense and ferocious attacks were so intense that, if it weren't Zhuge Xiang's Clone but truly his own person, so many powerful attacks would have crippled Zhuge Xiang, if not killed him.
Seeing Zhuge Xiang being overwhelmed by numerous attacks, Ying Yan couldn't hide a smile. No matter how strong Zhuge Xiang was, under the attacks of so many powerful figures and having suffered so much damage, he was now like a fish on a chopping board, completely at her mercy.
"No, danger! Everyone get out of the way!" Ming Ying, who specializes in archery, is as sharp as a hunter and has an extremely keen sense of danger. At this moment, Ming Ying suddenly sensed that "Zhuge Xiang," who had withstood thousands of attacks, was in great danger.
Regardless of whether it was reasonable or not, Ming Ying shouted urgently. Having reached the True Essence Realm, Ming Ying trusted his instincts very much. These instincts had allowed him to walk on the edge of danger many times and escape unscathed.
"Danger?" Ming Ying's shout startled the Cultivator who were besieging Zhuge Xiang. All their attacks had landed on Zhuge Xiang; he would be crippled if not killed. What trouble could he possibly cause? This was completely illogical.
Boom!
A terrifying explosion occurred at that moment. Zhuge Xiang's phantom Clone suddenly exploded.
The terrifying explosion blasted several Cultivator away, instantly injuring Cultivator and reducing their HP by about one-third to one-half.
Phantom Cloak (Five-Star Treasure Artifact): Defense +3200. Active: Creates an uncontrollable phantom Clone, granting the user an undetectable stealth state. After 3 seconds, the phantom explodes, dealing twice the user's own damage, and simultaneously cancels the user's stealth state. Duration: 320/320. Weight: 8.
Zhuge Xiang's current cultivation level has reached the True Essence Realm, and he also possesses over 20,000 attack power. The explosive power boosted by this double attack power is incredibly formidable. With just one use of the Phantom Cloak's Clone effect, the attacking Cultivator were left with varying degrees of injuries.
"It exploded?" Suddenly seeing Zhuge Xiang's body explode, all the Cultivator, including Ying Yan, were stunned and incredulous. Even after enduring so much damage, Zhuge Xiang's physical body couldn't possibly explode and be destroyed?
Three Consecutive Slashes.
Zhuge Xiang didn't give them much time to be surprised. Seeing that all the Cultivator who were attacking him were injured by the explosion of the phantom Clone, Zhuge Xiang, who was invisible next to him, directly launched the Three Consecutive Slashes Skill.
His movements were so fast that they were almost imperceptible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, a shadow flashed through the crowd like a butterfly flitting among flowers. Then, screams erupted and blood blossomed.
Zhuge Xiang was enveloped in countless jet-black demonic Demonic Qi. Eleven phantom Phantom Image swirled around him. The Dragon's Judgment Sword in his hand and the Thorn Armor on his body were both imbued with jet-black Demonic Qi. In his stealth state, Zhuge Xiang, who had unleashed the Demon Luo Scripture, was now even more terrifying.
The Demon Luo Sword's Three Consecutive Slashes strike inflicted another massive sword wound on each of the attacking Cultivator, nearly severing their bodies in Three Consecutive Slashes.
The terrifying sneak attack and damage, coupled with the amplification from the Demon Luo Scripture, nearly killed the three Cultivator struck by the Three Consecutive Slashes. Their HP was reduced to a mere sliver, especially the last Cultivator was bleeding and on the verge of death.
After the Three Consecutive Slashes, Zhuge Xiang wielded the Dragon's Judgment Sword, drawing a tragic arc as Sweep Through Thousands of Soldiers. Using the sword as a spear, Zhuge Xiang unleashed the Sweep Through Thousands of Soldiers Skill, directly sending the surrounding Cultivator who were about to react flying.
The Demon Luo Sword, amplified by the Demon Luo Scripture, offers a 20% Attack Speed bonus—that's no joke.
"Sun-Shooting Style!"
Seeing Zhuge Xiang suddenly appear and attack, his attack as fast as a ghost and as powerful as Thunderclap, Ming Ying, who was standing relatively far away, reacted quickly. She drew her longbow to its full extent, and a dazzling, sharp longsword, carrying the power to shoot down stars, locked onto Zhuge Xiang.
"Wait..." However, just as Ming Ying was about to release the arrow and shoot it out, Ying Yan suddenly reached out, grabbed Ming Ying, and shook her head at him, signaling him not to release the arrow.
He was the one who had just ordered the attack, and now he was the one who had pulled her back, signaling her to stop. Ming Ying looked at Ying Yan in surprise. Although she was full of questions, she did not make a move. She nodded, left the long arrow on the bowstring, and did not shoot it.
"Zhuge Xiang, stop for now!" After stopping Ming Ying, Ying Yan called out urgently when she saw Zhuge Xiang, who was like Tiger Among Sheep under the Demon Luo Scripture, as well as his seriously injured and even dying subordinates.
"Hmph, you were the one who said to attack, and you're also the one who told me to stop. What? You're going to beg for mercy now that you're no match for me?"
Ignoring Ying Yan's words, Zhuge Xiang continued his fierce attacks without slowing down. He coldly snorted and as he spoke, two more sharp Sword Qi shot out.
These people following her were her bargaining chips in the future struggle against her older brothers and sisters. Seeing them all falling to Zhuge Xiang's feet, screaming and being wounded, Ying Yan was frantic with worry. She cried out urgently, "I don't want the Fire Phoenix anymore. I have a better suggestion, and I'm sure you won't refuse."
"Oh? A better suggestion? What is it?" The Dragon's Judgment Sword —no, it should be called the Demon Luo Sword —was placed against Lei Qianjun's neck. Ignoring Lei Qianjun's ugly expression, Zhuge Xiang simply turned his head and looked at Ying Yan. He didn't even want the Fire Phoenix anymore, what other suggestion did he have? Zhuge Xiang was secretly curious.
Lei Qianjun was one of the three geniuses in Canghai Commandery. On the day of the Dragon Phoenix Ranking, Zhuge Xiang had to go to great lengths to defeat him. Moreover, after the trip to the Hundred Emperors Tomb, his strength had increased even more, and he had broken through to the Fifth Layer of Spell Control Stage. However, with his current strength, he was no match for Zhuge Xiang, who was in the True Essence Realm, and was easily subdued.
Looking at Zhuge Xiang, Lei Qianjun felt a pang of bitterness. Only a few months had passed? His former formidable rival had already far surpassed him. Was Zhuge Xiang's talent simply too monstrous? Or had he been overestimating himself all along?
Ying Yan had no interest in Lei Qianjun's current thoughts, nor did Zhuge Xiang. He simply focused his attention on Ying Yan, waiting to see what other suggestions she might have.
"You? Could it be that you have already learned the Demon Luo Scripture Asura Sect?" Seeing that Zhuge Xiang had stopped attacking, Ying Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and stared at Zhuge Xiang as she asked. Although the question was phrased as a question, her tone was one of certainty.
"The Demon Luo Scripture?" Upon Ying Yan's words, everyone present changed their expressions. Even Lu Yuling, who was standing next to her, stared wide-eyed at Zhuge Xiang. She was only now realizing that Zhuge Xiang had actually learned the Demon Luo Scripture.
The Imperial World Shocking Merit of the Great Qin Empire Imperial Clan astonishing and unparalleled, just like the Great Qin Empire's iron cavalry in the past, which swept through the Six Nations and unified the country.
The Imperial Edict Heavenly Book of Kunlun Mountain, the foremost of the Nine Great Sects, requires reincarnated gods and Buddhas from the Immortal Realm to cultivate. It embodies the will of Heaven and can even restore Memory of the Immortal Realm before reincarnation, thus allowing one to cultivate some of the Immortal Realm's inherited Cultivation Technique ahead of time, with effects that defy the heavens.
As for the Demon Luo Scripture of the Asura Sect, its Cultivation Technique effects are mysterious, and its cultivation requirements are equally mysterious. However, once someone successfully cultivates the Demon Luo Scripture of the Asura Sect, they will inevitably become an unparalleled expert. Together with the Imperial World Shocking Merit and the Imperial Edict Heavenly Book, it is known as Three Great Peerless Divine Skills of the Great Qin Empire.
The Demon Luo Scripture? Zhuge Xiang actually successfully cultivated the Demon Luo Scripture? If this statement hadn't come from Prince Ying Yan, very few people would have believed it.
I've always heard of Zhuge Xiang's talent, the genius who can trigger the Thunder Lightning Crystal Dragon Palace. Now, with the addition of the Demon Luo Scripture, he completely possesses the qualities of an unparalleled powerhouse.
"Him? It's him! No wonder Master entrusted Zhuge Xiang to him," Lu Yuling murmured to herself, staring at Zhuge Xiang in surprise as he circulated the Demon Luo Scripture Gate of Rakshasa. As Asura Sect Disciple, and possessing the Memory of Senior Sister Ice Maiden, Lu Yuling naturally knew better what the Demon Luo Scripture was.
"That's right, I can cultivate the Demon Luo Scripture, so what? Speak quickly if you have something to say," Zhuge Xiang asked, nodding frankly and staring at Ying Yan.
"As far as I know, those who have successfully cultivated the Demon Luo Scripture in the past generations of the Asura Sect will become the Sect Master. Zhuge Xiang, you have such talent, triggering the Lightning Crystal Dragon Palace and cultivating the unparalleled divine skill of the Asura Sect Demon Luo Scripture. If nothing unexpected happens, you will be the next Sect Master of the Asura Sect," Ying Yan said, staring intently at Zhuge Xiang.
The power of the Nine Great Sects in the Great Qin Empire is self-evident. Zhuge Xiang, with his talent and ability, has the potential to become the next Sect Master of the Asura Sect. With someone like him assisting him, his chances of winning the Imperial Throne of the Great Qin Empire would increase by at least 10%. No, with the addition of the Fire Phoenix, it would definitely increase by 20%.
Now, Ying Yan is filled with regret. If she had known this would happen, she would have befriended Zhuge Xiang Hundred Emperors Tomb cultivate the Demon Luo Scripture. She never expected that she would have torn off her relationship with Zhuge Xiang and fallen out with him.
No, we have to find a way to remedy this, no matter what. The future Sect Master of the Asura Sect, to have such a person assist him, just thinking about it is exhilarating.
"Oh? Being able to cultivate the Demon Luo Scripture means you can become the Sect Master of the Asura Sect?" Zhuge Xiang was indeed surprised to hear this from Ying Yan; it was something he hadn't expected.
However, looking back now and thinking about it carefully, even Gate of Rakshasa has been entrusted to me. It seems that my Master really intends to groom me as the next Sect Master of the Asura Sect? (To be continued...)
