Chapter 393: Use Magic to Defeat Magic
The sound was like thunder, spreading throughout the venue.
After the sword energy destroyed the fire snake in the sky, a stream of light quickly crossed the sky and flew towards the Second Priest in the distance.
A man in a black robe and holding a scabbard jumped off a light boat and came to the boundary monument that was surrounded by flames.
"Lu...Lu Xun!" the boundary marker said with a click.
Although its tone was filled with joy, its voice was trembling a little.
It seems that although the fire on its body cannot harm its roots at this moment, it must be very painful.
Just because you won’t be seriously injured doesn’t mean it won’t hurt.
Lu Xun glanced at the scabbard in his hand and asked, "Can it absorb the flame?"
The scabbard did not absorb the flames into its body, but instead released a wisp of [Divine Fire].
The scabbard seemed to have sensed something.
In an instant, the flames on the boundary marker seemed to have found a home, and rushed madly towards the [Divine Fire]!
Just like that, all the flames on the boundary monument rushed towards the [Divine Fire], wrapped up that small wisp of [Divine Fire], and turned it into a huge fireball.
——Like the scorching sun on earth!
Lu Xun looked up at Dida and asked, "Are you okay?"
Dida replied: "It... hurts a little, but... but I'm fine."
Lu Xun felt a little distressed when he heard the trembling voice.
He waved his sleeve and the green bead popped out of the scabbard.
He didn't care whether the energy in the green bead was useful to a stone tablet or not. He just pulled it out without any regret and controlled it to be poured into the boundary monument.
Then, he was surprised to find that there was a green airflow flowing inside the boundary monument, which directly repelled the energy in the green beads.
These green air currents nourish the boundary marker on their own without Lu Xun's intervention.
This made him feel relieved.
After putting the green bead back into the scabbard, Lu Xun turned his head and looked at the huge fireball floating in the air.
These flames were very active, circling around the [Divine Fire] and showing no intention of leaving.
Lu Xun came closer and felt extremely hot.
He tried to move the [Divine Fire] in the flames, and found that the flames sucked from the boundary monument also moved along with it.
They seem to be very clingy.
The [Divine Fire] was wrapped very tightly, especially tightly, without leaving even the slightest gap.
Although the reason is unknown, this means that Lu Xun can control them!
So what are you waiting for?
Lu Xun turned around and looked at the hills in the distance with a cold gaze.
Then, he waved his sleeves, and the wisp of [divine fire] quickly flew towards the figure on the hill.
The entire huge fireball flew through the air at a fairly fast speed.
Your fire is strong, but it's mine now.
“Take my fireball technique!” Lu Xun said in his mind.
…
…
Long before, a prompt message popped up in front of Lu Xun.
"[Ding! You have discovered the trace of the alien race's [Second Priest] clone. You can find any NPC from the seven major sects or above the elder level to submit the task.]"
When Lu Xun saw this prompt message, he was a little confused.
This fucking thing can happen! ?
This isn't a case of enemies meeting on a narrow road; it's clearly a bad fate!
If we weren't all grown men, I would have doubted whether the plot would turn into the bloody plot commonly seen in movies and TV dramas, the kind of love-hate relationship between enemies.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Xun saw the second prompt message.
"[Ding! Do you want to submit the task to the Demon Sect NPC [Lu Xun] who is closest to you?]"
Lu Xun: “…”
Is this the legendary self-pollination?
Although he wanted to swear in his heart, he still silently chose [Submit Task].
After completing the mission, he gained experience points and reputation with the Demon Sect. Of course, the mission reward also stated that there was a chance to gain the favor of the NPC, which he really couldn't get.
Narcissism is narcissism, but it is amazing to increase your own favorability.
Then, the scenes before my eyes happened.
[Sword Qi is Near] reacted quickly and rushed directly towards the three fire snakes in the air.
After beheading it, he went straight to the second priest.
This peerless sword once again helped Lu Xun a lot.
Therefore, no matter how much of a coward Lu Xun was, he couldn't help but say something nice to the scabbard:
“It’s actually pretty good.”
When the scabbard heard this, the black rope turned twice in the air, and no one knew what it meant.
Ye Sui'an stood aside, watching Lu Xun save the Xizhou boundary monument, and his heart finally settled down.
"I owe Senior Lu another huge favor!" he thought to himself.
"How am I supposed to repay so many favors in the future?" Ye Sui'an felt a little distressed for a moment.
But soon, he was attracted by Lu Xun's [Fireball Technique].
He was dumbfounded for a moment as he watched Lu Xun controlling the fireball that was as blazing as the sun on earth.
"How did Senior Lu do it?!" He was shocked.
The fireball controlled by the [Divine Fire] quickly joined the battle on the hill.
On the hill, the second priest looked at the peerless sword in front of him with a solemn expression.
Just after a brief encounter, he almost broke his left arm.
If the real body was here, they could have fought, but the key is that this is just a clone.
"How could there be such a sword in the world!?"
"It has such power without anyone controlling it!"
[Sword Qi is Near] After all, it is comparable to Yan Li when he had no sword in his hand. To put it simply, before Yan Li closed himself up, he relied on his palms to PK with his sword, and the odds were basically 50-50.
[Sword Qi is Near] is already ridiculously strong, and the ultimate sword nurtured by the level 10 [Sword Cultivation Technique] is no joke!
"Lu Xun! It's Lu Xun again!" The second priest was so angry that he wanted to howl to the sky.
"You brat! How dare you ruin my plans again and again!" The second priest was furious.
This kind of anger is very normal, because Lu Xun is now just a cultivator in the third realm, and a weakling in his eyes.
When a strong person is repeatedly frustrated by the weak person in his own heart, what comes out of his heart is not frustration, but anger!
He uttered a few silent words, and the dark red gem on the [scepter] shone brightly, turning into a barrier to try to block the [approaching sword energy].
Judging from this posture, the second priest is really a wizard.
This [scepter] is a bit like a magic wand.
[Sword Qi Approaches] hovered in front of the dark red barrier, making a sword sound.
To describe it with a phrase that was once very popular, this sound of the sword was three parts playful, three parts arrogant, and three parts unruly...
Of course, no one can fully understand this "foreign language".
Even Lu Xun, a guy who practiced sword skills with his own body, could only guess when he heard the sound of a sword most of the time.
The next moment, [Sword Qi Approaching] moved.
It was so fast, the fastest sword in the world, that people had no time to react.
Just a sword energy was enough to easily break through the dark red barrier.
Then, he slashed at the second priest.
It recognized this person because a shadow appeared when the red jade ring was destroyed.
The appearance of this man was deeply imprinted in the heart of [Sword Qi Approaching], and it swore that if it were to meet him, it would make sure he died a miserable death!
It was this man's soul-devouring fire that almost destroyed the scabbard!
This almost made it a widower!
It’s okay if my wife wants a divorce; that’s my own problem.
If you want to kill my wife, I can't stand it.
I will tell you now how to write the word death!
Oh no, I can’t write the word death either.
But it doesn't matter, I know what to do.
The second priest looked at the approaching [sword energy] and immediately raised the [scepter] in his hand, continuously spitting out silent characters from his mouth, trying to resist.
[The sword energy is approaching] doesn't even bother to pay attention to the [scepter]. It wants to take this man's life as soon as possible!
It instantly turned into a stream of light, avoided the [Scepter], and then attacked the second priest from another angle.
With a "puff", the sword energy approached and pierced through him directly.
A dark red ball of light emerged from the second priest's body, and the sword energy only penetrated a layer of human skin!
This method is a bit like escaping from the shell.
The ball of light spread out in all directions in the blink of an eye, like fireflies gathered together and flying in all directions.
However, the speed of [Sword Qi Approaching] was too fast. Even if he tried to escape in this way, [Sword Qi Approaching] could at least take away half of his life!
Nearly half of the tiny light spots were destroyed by the terrifying sword energy, and the rest flew away quickly and disappeared.
The [scepter] that remained in its original place had already turned into a dark red flame and flew towards the direction of certain light spots.
[Sword Qi is Near] The sword flashed, but it only touched it, cutting off a part of the [Scepter] that turned into flames.
And at this moment, a wisp of black flame arrived here just in time!
——【Divine Fire】!
This wisp of [Divine Fire] was surrounded by thick flames. They originated from the [Scepter], but now followed the [Divine Fire] and bombarded the flaming [Scepter] that had a part cut off!
"Use magic to defeat magic!" Lu Xun, who was controlling the [Divine Fire] from a distance, muttered to himself.
The two balls of flame collided with each other in an instant, and then exploded instantly, as if they were going to die together.
The [Scepter] that had already been damaged by the sword energy was destroyed just like that.
Under the boundary marker, Ye Sui'an looked at the magical scene in front of him, his mouth wide open in shock.
Still... can we still play like this?
He didn't know that the [Divine Fire] controlled by Lu Xun actually originated from the second priest.
It was transformed from Soul-Devouring Fire and became an additional attribute of the scabbard.
This is equivalent to using one of the second priest's rare treasures to destroy his other rare treasure.
Lu Xun looked at Ye Sui'an who was surprised, and said calmly:
"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you, that is all."
…
