Chapter 450 Soul Fire as Firewood
Chapter 450 Soul Fire as Firewood
The ghostly soldiers seemed endless as they surged forth from the eerie light, only to vanish one by one in the hands of the split entity.
Even though the Yin soldiers could not harm the split entities, they still blocked their progress, preventing them from crossing the wind and merging with Lu's main body.
Seeing this, Lu couldn't help but start to make a move. He was very wary of Cheng Feng, an old acquaintance.
But now that the opportunity to devour the ultimate is so close, how could He possibly back down?
Swish
Countless transparent tentacles swept towards Cheng Feng, covering the sky.
At the same time, the black substance silently spread to both sides of the bronze door. Killing Cheng Feng was not the goal; its goal was to get inside the bronze door.
Rumble…
First came a low rumble of thunder, followed by a deafening clap of lightning that reverberated throughout the mountain.
A dazzling flash of lightning disappeared in Lu's tentacles, and a large number of tentacles turned to ashes under this heavenly lightning.
Cheng Feng's gaze was fixed on the Bagua diagram on the Qin King's Bone-Illuminating Mirror in his hand. The Kun position on it had dimmed, indicating that a large amount of dragon energy was gathering in the surrounding earth veins.
What he needs to do now is to weaken Lu as much as possible so that He won't crush Lu too much when He devours the meteorite.
Lu's body was so enormous that the tentacles destroyed by the lightning were nothing more than the tip of the iceberg to Him.
The black substance bypassed Cheng Feng and was about to touch the rocks at the entrance.
Just then, Cheng Feng slowly raised his head.
Then, an inextinguishable dragon fire ignited around him, and large patches of ancient clan markings slowly emerged from his exposed skin.
His eyes held the sun and moon within them, and his brow shone with a radiant light.
An invisible force of bloodline kept the black substance out, preventing Lu from coveting what was inside.
"If you want to get past me, even if you're a god, I'll smash all your teeth in."
As soon as the words fell, a surge of flames instantly erupted from the void, and a large number of Lunar Jade Rabbits and Solar Firebirds rushed out from the imaginary space.
The firelight and the chilling atmosphere destroyed most of Lu's avatar.
Cheng Feng's mastery of bloodline techniques over the years had long since reached its pinnacle; he was now just half a step away from stepping into a completely new level.
That will be a radical transformation, and the catalyst for this transformation is the so-called ascension to godhood.
The conflict over the Dao forces Cheng Feng to stand against Lu; only by eliminating him can he transcend.
Cheng Feng's unleashed Undying Dragon Flame was extremely terrifying.
Even though Lu has a strong regenerative ability, the dragon fire still rushed into the black dragon vein along its tentacles.
In an instant, half of the snow-capped mountain was covered in dragon fire.
Some flames even shone through the opening leading to the outside into the sky, but fortunately, the dragon's fire had a clear target.
Otherwise, the entire mountain would become fuel for the dragon fire.
The spot where Cheng Feng sat formed a clear dividing line; before him, flames raged, and the club that Lu had just condensed was burned to ashes.
Behind him, the man in red, holding a tiger tally, led a continuous stream of ghostly soldiers to keep the split entity inside the door.
This forced Lu to gather the dragon vein energy scattered across the land of China. Everything else was no longer important; the key to victory lay in the meteorite egg inside the gate.
As time went by, Cheng Feng's brows began to furrow.
The black substance became increasingly concentrated, and Lu's body grew faster and faster. The Undying Dragon Flame had also been forced back from the black dragon vein.
Soon, Lu's avatar began to grow larger and larger in the flames.
This time, the avatar was a deeper color, and the dragon fire only damaged its surface, making it resemble a giant candle.
Looking at the Qin King's Bone-Illuminating Mirror in his hand,
Now that the golden Bagua diagram had completely dimmed, Cheng Feng's brows relaxed and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Red dress, it's your turn now."
Cheng Feng put away the Qin King Bone-Illuminating Mirror with a backhand and whispered to the woman in red.
The woman in red, with a stern face, nodded, and then the dim light began to fade.
It was as if the endless army of ghosts was beginning to dry up.
Without reinforcements, the ghostly soldiers in front began to disappear in large numbers, visible to the naked eye.
The split entity is getting closer and closer to the entrance.
When the last wisp of soul fire drifted into the Yin Soldier Tiger Talisman, the split entity was already within reach.
It was at this moment that the red-clothed woman's spiritual power surged into the tiger talisman.
'Ugh...'
The awe-inspiring bugle call echoed through the mountains and across the heavens and earth.
Heavy armored ghost soldiers riding tall horses emerged from the cliff face in formation, accompanied by the sound of horns.
They passed through the undying dragonfire, and as they passed Lu's tentacles, they swung their blades and cut them off. Instantly, that section of the tentacle dried up and was eventually burned in the dragonfire.
This army of ghost soldiers is the true force commanded by the Tiger Seal, and can only be defeated with sufficient soul fire sacrifice.
Only by using the red-clothed figure's spiritual energy as a key can they be temporarily summoned to fight for those who possess the Tiger Tally.
"The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry under Boss Cao's command were so famous that if it weren't for a stroke of luck, the tiger tally would have almost been left to gather dust in my hands."
The power of the bloodline was already teetering on the brink of collapse under the impact of the black matter and the split entity.
At this point, Cheng Feng began to restrain himself; continuing the fight was pointless, since the goal wasn't to replace the Bronze Gate.
Instead, the goal is to completely eliminate Lu.
The charging Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were incredibly imposing, their spears lifting each of the split bodies high into the air before they were trampled underfoot by their warhorses.
In just one round, the split entity was completely wiped out, and the original entity that had been parasitizing the body of the Fuxi clan fell into eternal silence amidst the spear filled with death energy.
Having dealt with these split entities, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, under the control of the red-clad warrior, turned their warhorses around.
It charged straight at Lu's body engulfed in dragon fire.
The Yin Soldier Tiger Talisman from the system possessed a very high level of power. The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were like the embodiment of death; Lu's body lost its life the moment it touched their blades.
Even the black substance became much thinner in an instant.
Five minutes later, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry had already pierced through Lu's defenses and were about to press their advantage when the tiger tally in the red-clothed man's hand suddenly lost its light.
The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry gradually became illusory and eventually disappeared completely from the world.
The countless soul fires of the Shang and Zhou ghost soldiers only sustained the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry for five minutes. Now that their soul fires are exhausted, they can no longer remain in the world.
The slightly weary woman in red slowly approached Cheng Feng. She had consumed a lot of spiritual energy, and her body, which was originally very close to flesh, now had some paper-like material on it.
"You've worked hard, Red Dress, go and get some rest!"
Fearing something might happen to Hongyi, Cheng Feng sent her directly back to the Imaginary Space to recuperate.
This time, thanks to Hongyi, if Cheng Feng's own weakening of Lu was one point, then the damage that the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry inflicted on Lu in these short five minutes was one and a half points.
The combination of these two factors added some obstacles to Lu's devouring of the meteorite, and also increased his chances of ultimately defeating the god.
As the clan markings on Cheng Feng's body gradually receded, the defensive line formed by his bloodline power began to completely collapse.
Lu is like an endless tide; every time it retreats, it returns with even greater force.
After the dragon fire gradually died down, Cheng Feng was no longer in front of Lu.
Without hesitation, the black matter rushed into the long-awaited gate, and its enormous body completely blocked the bronze door.
