The Lord of Void and Real-Chapter 1900 - 1896: Cultivation Level Greatly Increases

The Bow-back Woman’s head in the void resounded with a "boom," and Shen Luo’s figure appeared like a ghostly specter, his entire body exploding with terrifying demonic Qi once again. A pitch-black demonic claw, several zhang in size, descended from the sky, reaching for this woman, precisely the combat god’s power of Chiyou.

When dealing with the first two statues, he was distracted, wanting to explore the nature of the statues, spending considerable effort. For the latter two, he did not intend to delay and sought to make quick work of it.

The Bow-back Woman’s figure lay motionless, but the green bow on her back suddenly trembled, bouncing to her head with a "twang," the bow curved like a full moon, as a green arrow appeared out of thin air, ready to be shot.

With a soft "whoosh," the green arrow shot through the void, seeming to pass through the descending combat god’s power of Chiyou like a ghostly specter, disappearing into Shen Luo’s body.

Meanwhile, on the other side, the Old Man with a walking stick pointed his stick into the void, shooting out a green stick shadow that crossed several dozen zhang in a flicker, disappearing into Shen Luo’s body.

A green shadow flashed through Shen Luo’s mind, and the arrow and stick shadows appeared almost simultaneously, viciously striking at his divine soul, causing unbearable pain and a grimace on his face.

"Indeed, it’s a divine soul attack!"

He was about seventy to eighty percent sure that these four statues were the tests of the Xuanyuan Hall. The Huangdi Neijing is divided into the "Spirit Coffin" and "Su Wen" Chapters; the attacks of the first two statues leaned towards "Spirit Coffin," while the latter two were likely "Su Wen," hence he was already prepared.

In a flash, Shen Luo’s divine soul in his mind coalesced, transforming into a shadow of Mountain Buzhou, with green spirit patterns deriving from the mountain’s body, precisely the spirit patterns from the "Su Wen" Chapter of the Huangdi Neijing, colliding directly with the arrow and stick shadows without any embellishment.

With two thunderous "boom" sounds, two massive cracks appeared on the shadowy Mountain Buzhou formed by his divine soul, almost about to collapse and disintegrate, yet it forcibly endured.

Shen Luo’s divine soul was strong; he had previously practiced the Suppressing God Technique of Mountain Buzhou, the Flashing Thought Secret Technique, and several divine soul secret techniques, referencing each other. Hence, his comprehension of the "Su Wen" Chapter of the Huangdi Neijing far surpassed the "Spirit Coffin" Chapter, already capable of combining the "Su Wen" Chapter with the Suppressing God Technique. Otherwise, he wouldn’t dare boastfully withstand the divine soul attacks of the two statues.

The flicker of pain in Shen Luo’s eyes disappeared, returning to calmness. The combat god’s power of Chiyou grabbed the Bow-back Woman, tearing her in half as if through rotten earth.

Two thick demonic Qi jets shot from him, transforming into two pitch-black demonic dragons, each biting half of the Bow-back Woman’s body, swallowing it with upturned heads, refining it in the blink of an eye.

A surge of pure vitality mingled with countless profound insights from the Huangdi Neijing once again merged into Shen Luo’s body, greatly advancing this divine art once more.

The Huangdi Neijing’s insights gathered this time were mostly about the "Su Wen" Chapter. Through careful analogy, several other divine soul secret techniques also deepened considerably.

"So it is, using the heart as the sword, so that’s it, truly profoundly mysterious!" he murmured to himself, the soul power in his mind stirring fiercely, gathering towards one place.

With an extraordinary "buzz," the sound of a sword’s cry resonated, and the shadowy Mountain Buzhou vanished, replaced by a red sword shadow, which he had pondered for a long time yet hadn’t been able to master, the "Heart Sword" god’s power; until today, it finally came to fruition.

The surface of the red sword shadow was coated with a faint green spirit pattern, exuding an endless sharpness.

The Old Man with the walking stick was shapeless due to prohibition, having no thought of his own; although defeat was inevitable, he still swung his stick to launch an attack again.

A green stick shadow was shot out again, rushing straight towards Shen Luo.

"Heart Sword!" Shen Luo looked over, sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

A red sword shadow shot out from his brow, colliding with the green stick shadow.

With the sound of ripping silk, the green stick shadow was shattered into pieces; the red sword shadow slightly dimmed, but continued galloping forward at an unmatched speed, disappearing into the Old Man with the walking stick.

The Old Man’s body stiffened, the vitality in his eyes dissipating by a great extent.

Shen Luo flicked his sleeve, a thick demonic Qi jet shot forward, enveloping the Old Man. Within a few breaths, it refined him, transforming into original power and profound insights merging into his body.

His comprehension of the Huangdi Neijing improved once again, the red sword shadow in his mind suddenly compressed several times, transforming into a red flying sword almost no different from the Pure Yang Sword.

Though its size reduced, the sharpness of the red Heart Sword surged exponentially, thoroughly transforming into a fierce sword of god-slaying and soul-obliteration.

Shen Luo’s divine soul realm advanced greatly, with the mana within his body rumbling, rising rapidly.

The four statues contained very rich vitality; each statue was almost no less than a Kun egg.

With the assistance of these four mighty vitality flows, Shen Luo’s mana realm advanced swiftly, and once it settled, he was already not far from the peak of the Taiyi middle stage.

Shen Luo’s eyes moved, immediately urging the Chaos Black Lotus Roots to absorb the three Kun eggs within the Map of Mountains and Rivers.

Three more huge vitality flows converged, pushing his cultivation forward continuously.

He comprehended the Power Law, coupled with the experience in the Dream World and just obtained cultivation insights about the Huangdi Neijing from the four statues, his realm aspect remained unshakably stable, needing a constant supply of strong vitality to push the cultivation enhancement.

Boom!

Golden light erupted crazily on Shen Luo’s body, illumining a hundred-zhang area around into dazzling brilliance, his aura spilling out madly, clearly reaching the peak of the Taiyi Realm.

"Hoo"

An extremely powerful mana fluctuation, like a torrent, swept out towards the surroundings.

Unknown whether influenced by the impact of Shen Luo’s mana fluctuation or because the four statues had been destroyed, the green within the great hall quickly faded, turning golden within a few breaths, and the forces of prohibition dissipated without trace.

...

Outside Xuanyuan Hall, Lu Xiu and Tu Hunzhu had just laid out a grey Array several dozen zhang in size, with Lu Xiu and Tu Hunzhu as leaders, everyone from the Demon Alliance assisting within the array.

Jin Jian was also within; his complexion had returned to normal, unaware what means Bai Chuan used, making him recover this quickly.

The grey Array rumbled on, countless grey light arrows shot out, hitting the hall within, sounding like rain on banana leaves.

The golden prohibition on the palace door flickered constantly; those grey light arrows seemed not very powerful, yet upon touching the door, they melted, transforming into dense grey light spots, embedded like nails into the golden prohibition.

The golden prohibition was greatly affected, dimmed significantly, seeming unable to hold for long before the grey light arrows would break it open.

Lu Xiu and Tu Hunzhu displayed delight, just about to rally everyone in the Demon Alliance to exert more force when a dragon chant and a tiger roar-like sound came from within the great hall.

The prohibition on the palace door bloomed with golden brilliance, countless golden flowers and long rainbows spraying out from within; those grey light spots were swiftly expelled by blinding golden light, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

"What!" Lu Xiu and Tu Hunzhu showed shock on their faces.

After expelling all the grey light spots, all the gold, golden flowers, and long rainbows on the door fell like a long whale sucking water, shooting back, attached beneath the door, transforming into a Lucent Gold Light Shield.

The grey light arrows hitting the surface were instantly bounced off, leaving no trace.

Within the grey light Array, all the Demons from the Demon Alliance looked at each other in astonishment, dumbfounded, remaining frozen in place.
