“Disciple of the White Cloud Temple? Cultivating both Dao and martial arts?”
The tiger demon’s eyes narrowed. He reached out and grabbed. A gale swirled up, demon energy permeated the air, and then one claw met Lu Zheng’s blade.
Lu Zheng’s Flying Cloud Curse failed. The momentum of his blade turned, slashing diagonally towards the tiger demon’s elbow.
The tiger demon’s eyes focused. His large mouth opened wide, and black wind like a knife slashed straight at Lu Zheng’s face.
This wind blade contained endless demon power. Alarms rang in Lu Zheng’s mind. He retracted his hand in reverse, holding his long blade horizontally across his chest.
“Ch!”
Even with Lu Zheng’s blood energy reinforcing it, the Xiuchun blade was still chipped by this black wind blade.
“My husband, do not advance rashly. This tiger demon is injured. We just need to hold him back!” Shen Ying transmitted a message.
Lu Zheng nodded and retreated swiftly.
But the tiger demon would not let it go. He lunged forward bodily.
“Golden Palace Heart Sword, Slash!”
Lu Zheng used a Golden Palace Heart Sword, but the tiger demon only staggered briefly. A gale rose in his true spirit sea, directly shredding the Golden Palace Heart Sword.
Lu Zheng raised an eyebrow. This tiger had high cultivation, and his divine soul was not weak either. But clearly, his injuries had also affected his true spirit.
In the next moment, the tiger demon pounced. Black wind like a knife, fierce as a tiger.
Lu Zheng formed a seal with his hand. Then a gale rose from the ground beside him, clashing against the opponent’s gale. It then wrapped around him and retreated, once again widening the distance from the tiger demon.
“Hmm? Wind curse? You know wind curses too?”
The tiger demon was startled. He was about to lunge again, but was blocked by dense, continuous clouds.
“You have quite a few tricks.” The tiger demon snorted coldly.
Mental secret arts, wind curses combined with cloud methods, and also practising martial arts. Although only three hundred years of cultivation, he was truly not easy to deal with.
The tiger demon turned around. The look in his eyes towards Shen Ying carried killing intent.
“Old Man just wanted to eat a few people. You let the temple’s guardian kill Old Man’s chosen tigress. Die for me!”
Black wind howled, vengeful ghosts screamed. It broke through the bindings around him and pounced straight at Shen Ying.
Shen Ying flipped her palm, and a porcelain bottle appeared in her hand.
In the next moment, infinite peach blossom煞 surged out from the bottle, nearly drowning the tiger demon directly.
Just now, to coordinate with Zhu Yushan’s spells and Li Hanyu’s water waves, Shen Ying had not used the porcelain bottle’s煞 energy. Now that the tiger demon had broken free, Shen Ying prepared to give him a harsh blow.
The peach blossom煞 that Shen Ying had accumulated over this period was plentiful. Like great waves crashing down, one wave head smashed the tiger demon back down again.
The tiger demon was caught off guard and let out a muffled hum. Black wind swirled, and he turned around. Over a dozen vengeful ghosts pounced towards the nearest Li Hanyu.
“Buzz!”
Li Hanyu opened her red lips, and a thumb-sized pearl flew out from her mouth, radiating brilliant light.
The light shone, and the dozen or so vengeful ghosts screamed miserably one after another, unable to advance an inch.
Tiger demon: ???
He turned his head towards Zhu Yushan, only to see Zhu Yushan standing tall and upright, with a serious expression, looking like no easy opponent.
His eyes shifted, and the tiger demon restrained his anger. Gales swept around his body, and he prepared to exit the Peach Blossom Shrine.
He was injured at this time. Better to handle the main business first, then heal his wounds, and kill them one by one later. After all, this Peach Blossom Shrine was built here and could not run away.
Seeing the tiger demon about to leave, Lu Zheng and the other three of course would not agree.
Come when you want, leave when you want? What kind of place do you think this is?
Shen Ying waved her hand, and dozens of seeds scattered out. In just a short moment, dozens of peach trees sprouted up in the Peach Blossom Shrine.
In the blink of an eye, peach shadows were myriad, peach blossoms flew everywhere. Countless peach petals danced through the air, each petal carrying a soul-shaking power.
Li Hanyu and Zhu Yushan, the couple, joined forces. Water waves below, moonlight above, pressing the tiger demon so he could not fly up, trapping him in the Peach Blossom Shrine.
“You want to keep me here?”
The tiger demon was so angry he laughed. “With you few little brats?”
“Roar!”
A low roar, and the tiger demon crouched down. In the blink of an eye, he transformed into a fierce tiger.
Over two zhang long, majestic in form, astonishing in aura. With a light bump, he knocked down a peach tree beside him.
With a tiger roar, he broke free from the water waves and moonlight around him and charged towards the outside of the Peach Blossom Shrine.
But just as he had started, having rushed less than ten metres, Lu Zheng suddenly appeared in front of him. In his hand was a dark golden hammer the size of a washbasin, already swung halfway around.
The Thunder Drum Jar Golden Hammer custom-ordered from Zhao Wenyu. A solid alloy hammer nearly sixty centimetres in diameter, which ordinary people could not even lift.
“Bang!”
Even with demon energy protecting his body, the tiger demon was smashed flying out by this blow. His head felt only a bout of dizziness inside.
In the next moment, Lu Zheng had chased up and flung another Golden Palace Heart Sword. Then a spell seal pressed onto the tiger demon’s body.
“Three Pure Ones Command, True Cloud Slays Demon, Hasten!”
“Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!”
Several black wind blades swept over. Lu Zheng’s figure retreated swiftly, cloud energy protecting his body.
“You cannot leave now. Prepare to die.” Lu Zheng said calmly.
As the words fell, Lu Zheng raised the Thunder Drum Jar Golden Hammer, then switched to the Xiuchun blade. Blood energy surged in his body, the “Tiger Roar Blade” activated, and one blade slashed horizontally.
…
Four against one. Lu Zheng as the main tank, leading three mages to gang up on the tiger demon.
That tiger demon was no slouch either, but whether breaking through with his demon body or summoning wind to control ghosts, he could not break the heavenly net woven by the four together.
Several attempts to ride the wind away were all disrupted by Lu Zheng’s wind curses affecting his spells, then blocked by Zhu Yushan and Li Hanyu together. Finally, overwhelmed by boundless peach blossom煞, he could not leave anymore.
The sun set in the west, the moon rose to mid-heaven.
The tiger demon gradually could not protect his whole body. Peach blossom煞, moonlight, and cloud-water energy entered his body, and the injuries on him gradually could not be suppressed.
The tiger demon’s expression gradually turned panicked. He dared not imagine that he might die here.
“Impossible! I am one of the Four Great Vajras of Du Yu Mountain. How could I die namelessly in a land temple in Da Jing!”
“Open! Roar!”
The tiger demon transformed into a giant tiger again. His four limbs clawed the ground, then he suddenly pushed off. Black wind swirled around his whole body, nearly solidifying.
This time, he was risking further injury. He had to leave the Peach Blossom Shrine.
“Roar! Get out of my way!”
Lu Zheng’s eyes focused. If this wave came head-on, whether he could block the tiger demon was uncertain, but he himself would definitely be injured.
But at this time, the tiger demon was outwardly strong but inwardly weak. Compared to when he had just entered the Peach Blossom Shrine, he had been weakened far too much.
“Golden Palace Heart Sword, Slash!”
As usual, first a Golden Palace Heart Sword. Then Lu Zheng’s figure did not retreat but advanced.
“Supreme Limitless, Three Pure Ones Command, Bind!”
At the key moment to decide victory or defeat, he could use the Binding Curse.
“Ga!”
The tiger demon’s body stiffened.
Just now, for one success, he had almost used all his strength, ensuring that man would be killed if in the way, god slain if in the way, no holding back, charging forward relentlessly.
But suddenly being bound like this…
The relentless momentum was interrupted. The demon energy in his body, operating at its peak, instantly became chaotic, difficult to calm for a moment.
And taking advantage of this instant…
“Kill!”
