Chapter 293: Chapter 268: Killing the True Body with One Palm Strike_1
These two immortal beast puppets are different from the previous ones, shaped like fierce tigers, with horns growing from their heads, and their entire bodies are covered in fiery red fur. They exude a strong and overwhelming aura of pollution.
"They’re at the Ture Body Fourth Refinement level, but their constitution is comparable to that of a Middle-Grade True Body."
Shen Yinuo spoke.
"Ture Body Fourth Refinement, eh? As usual, we’ll take one each."
Lu Yan said, and then his body began to swell. He activated his Supreme Physical Martial Arts simultaneously, pushed off with his feet, and burst forth.
Roar!
The immortal beast puppet swung its sharp claws toward Lu Yan. A wild wind howled, the void trembled, and a terrifying roar resounded.
Such an attack, if it had occurred before Lu Yan had broken through his True Body, he would definitely have run as far as possible to avoid being squashed into a pancake.
But now...
"Come."
Lu Yan displayed a strong will to fight. He neither dodged nor evaded but instead threw out a palm.
Clang!
The Cold Magic Palm collided with the beast puppet’s huge claw, which was like a door panel. The massive body of the immortal beast puppet shook violently and was forced to retreat dozens of meters. Half of its body was covered by a thick layer of ice.
"Top Martial Arts that integrates a person and martial arts indeed need the True Body Realm to bring out its maximum power."
Lu Yan thought to himself.
Then, propelling himself forward, he charged toward the immortal beast puppet. Grabbing its horns, he lifted it and smashed it down.
Boom!
The whole cave trembled, and a large pit was smashed into the ground. The puppet’s body made crackling sounds. It didn’t know how many bones it had broken.
But the immortal beast puppet did not feel pain and struggled to counterattack.
However, when its sharp claw caught Lu Yan’s body, it couldn’t even break his scales.
Lu Yan put his hands around the puppet’s head, twisted it forcefully, and with a "plop" sound, the immortal beast puppet’s entire skull was twisted off.
"Easily dealt with. It seems that my strength is even greater than I had anticipated. The King’s True Body achieved by thirty types of inner strength is fundamentally different from ordinary King’s True Body."
Lu Yan secretly mused, his face showing happiness.
Meanwhile, Shen Yinuo was about to finish her fight on the other side.
Trapping the enemy with the Great Sun Melting Furnace and attacking with the Asura Hand, she was invincible. It took her only a few moments longer than Lu Yan for the immortal beast puppet to thunderously fall to the ground.
After dealing with the immortal beast puppets, the two began to examine the cave.
This cave had no shelves, only several large chests.
Besides, what drew attention were the patterns carved on the walls.
There were eight in total.
Lu Yan didn’t understand seven of them, but one looked like a geographical map with seven dots connected to form the pattern of the Big Dipper. The third dot was particularly dark.
"It seems that this pattern is the geographical map of this treasure place."
Shen Yinuo said.
"So, this treasure place has seven caves in total, and our current location is in the third cave."
Lu Yan said, his heart burning increasingly brightly.
Seven caves.
Just getting one previously was already invaluable. How many resources would seven caves contain?
"It’s strange, the seven caves, each guarded by a force of increasing strength, seem to have been deliberately arranged this way."
Lu Yan said.
Shen Yinuo nodded, and said, "That’s quite normal. When the Dagu royal family hid the treasure, the Dagu Dynasty had already collapsed and completely become hopeless. They could only pin their hopes on future generations."
"But future generations might have a low cultivation level, so the difficulty of the guards is from weak to strong. The resources are obtained step by step, to enhance strength. After all, if one isn’t strong enough but has too many resources, they might lose their way, or even become a target."
"This arrangement aims to train future generations."
Shen Yinuo said.
Lu Yan nodded, agreeing with this explanation.
Then, the two began to inventory their gains.
The resources in this cave were even more than in the previous one.
Of course, they were mainly concentrated in Divine weapons, third-level Martial Pills, fourth-level Martial Pills, and strategic resources like the Solidifying Reality Pill.
But compared to the previous cave, there were some more low-level resources.
For instance, second-level Martial Pills.
There were also some Martial Pills to help break through the Martial Marquis and the Grandmaster level. Made by Honorable Level Martial Chef, their effects were even better than the Mutated Nine-section Heart Meat, Ink Jade Heart Bead, and the Phoenix Blood Heart Protective Soup.
These were indeed prepared for cultivating a major power.
There were also some Sumi Mustard Seed Bags with larger space. The largest one was 20 meters long and wide, and 10 meters high.
As per the old rules, these resources were evenly divided between the two.
It was a good thing that they had such a large Sumi Mustard Seed Bag. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to fit everything in.
Afterwards, they turned their attention to the passageway to the fourth cave, but after considering for a moment, they decided to give up.
The Wish Pattern of the third cave was difficult for Shen Yinuo to decipher. The Wish Pattern leading to the fourth cave would be even more challenging.
It wasn’t something they could break through in a short time.
Moreover, they estimated that the immortal beast puppet guarding the fourth cave might have reached the Ture Body Seventh Refinement, or even the Primordial Spirit Realm. It wasn’t something they could handle.
It was better to get out of danger as soon as possible.
Click!
Lu Yan pressed the switch, and the bronze door to the third cave opened. They went back the way they had come, returned to the second cave, and then Lu Yan opened the bronze door leading to the second cave.
As the bronze door opened, Lu Yan and Shen Yinuo stood opposite the assassins from the Dark Moon organization, separated by the passageway. Their gazes met.
After such a long effort, more than half of the Wish Pattern in the passageway had been destroyed.
Xueyue and the others looked at Lu Yan and Shen Yinuo in surprise, not understanding why they suddenly opened the door.
"It appears that they have reached a dead end."
"One of the assassins spoke.
"Ignore them and continue the attack. Break through the Wish Pattern; they’ll have no way to escape."
Xueyue gave the order.
The assassins intensified their attack.
Lu Yan and Shen Yinuo didn’t immediately take action, but watched quietly instead.
They wanted to assess first the power of these assassins, particularly the leading ones.
Depending on the different strengths of these assassins, their plan would also vary.
If they could manage these assassins, they would try to keep them all here. There were still many resources left here which they hadn’t taken with them; they would stay hidden as much as they could.
If the assassins proved too powerful, they would have to make a desperate break for it, regardless of any treasures.
Soon after, Yinyue, Xueyue, and the others started to attack the Wish Pattern in turns.
"The strongest assassin in the blood robe is at the Ture Body Fifth Refinement," Shen Yinuo transmitted to Lu Yan with True Vigor.
"We can keep him."
Lu Yan muttered in response.
Then, the two exchanged plans through telepathic communication.
Suddenly, Shen Yinuo rushed out like a graceful butterfly, stepping carefully on safe spots, making several leaps and leaving the Wish Pattern area.
"Kill her."
Xueyue commanded coldly.
Whish, whish, whish...
Immediately, hundreds of needle-thin poisoned darts shot towards Shen Yinuo, covering the sky.
At the same time, nine swords were thrust towards Shen Yinuo.
Shen Yinuo swung her palm and the gust of wind caused all the poisoned darts to fly into the walls on both sides.
Then, her figure flickered like a dragon weaving through a crowd, evading all attacks.
Huh?
Xueyue’s eyes narrowed, and he personally joined the fight. His weapon was a blood-red scimitar. He slashed out a crescent-shaped blood light that was aimed at Yinuo’s neck.
A black pot suddenly appeared in Shen Yinuo’s hand, blocking the blood light with a casual parry. She then used the momentum to surge forward, jumping over everyone like a phantom, and landing at the entrance of the first cave, blocking it.
If the plan was to keep everyone here, their escape route would first have to be cut off.
"Kill!"
Several assassins immediately charged at Shen Yinuo.
Shen Yinuo waved her hand and several flying daggers shot out.
These Master Level assassins didn’t even have time to react, their throats pierced by the flying daggers, and they were killed on the spot.
"True Body Realm."
Xueyue eyes hardened, he slashed his sword, personally trying to kill Shen Yinuo.
"Great Sun God Fist!"
Shen Yinuo shouted lowly, her fists glowing red. Like two rounds of the sun, they emitted terrifying heat, causing the cave’s temperature to rise rapidly.
Bang!
With one punch, she collided with the blood light, creating a terrifying roar. Both of them stepped back a few steps simultaneously.
"How is this possible?"
Xueyue’s face changed drastically. He found it hard to believe, and roared as he made another attempt at Shen Yinuo with his scimitar, its light becoming sharper.
He was not an ordinary Inferior True Body but a Middle-Grade one.
Yinuo was not frightened. A furnace flew out from her abdomen.
Upon crossing into the True Body Realm, the divinity of Shen Yinuo’s furnace became more solid. It was like an ancient relic that crossed time and space, exuding a terrifying ability to attack and defend.
For a while, Xueyue couldn’t do anything to Shen Yinuo.
As soon as Shen Yinuo landed at the exit, Lu Yan also emerged quickly. He had already memorized the safe area and quickly left the Wish Pattern area. Like a humanoid berserk dragon, he pounced on the group of assassins.
The assassins threw all kinds of hidden weapons such as poisoned darts and darts at Lu Yan.
But Lu Yan completely ignored these hidden weapons.
Ding, ding, ding...
The hidden weapons hit the scales on Lu Yan’s body, like hitting a divine weapon, all being repelled.
Upon reaching the True Body Realm, Lu Yan refined to reach the King’s True Body. With the King’s True Body as the foundation, and utilizing the Supreme Physical Martial Arts, he brought the power of physical martial arts to an exaggerated extent.
At this moment, his body was truly like that of the Flood Dragon, powerful and unbreakable.
Sword attacks followed after the hidden weapons.
But Lu Yan still ignored them. With a big grip, he grabbed the neck of a Sixth-level Master assassin, and then with a hard swing, the assassin’s body flew out like a cannonball and hit another assassin.
The two bodies exploded with a bang and turned into a meat paste.
Chiii!
The sound of the sword tearing through the air echoed, which was very terrifying.
The person who made the move was an assassin from Ture Body First Refinement; the sword light was sharp and cruel, stabbing at Lu Yan’s brow.
Smack!
Lu Yan, barehanded, slapped the tip of the sword. With a sound, the high-level divine weapon-level sharp sword shattered, and then the assassin’s arm exploded under Lu Yan’s strong palm.
Finally, the palm hit the opponent’s chest. This Ture Body First Refinement assassin split into pieces instantly, and was killed on the spot.
Then, an arrow appeared in Lu Yan’s right hand; he picked up about a dozen of them and threw them out forcefully.
A dozen Master Level assassins were pierced by the arrows, nailed to the wall and died.
"It’s you..."
Lu Yan targeted Yinyue, with a leap, he pounced towards Yinyue.
Yinyue, who had seen Lu Yan kill a Ture Body First Refinement assassin with one palm, had turned pale with fright. He didn’t dare to confront Lu Yan head-on and swiped to the side, while yelling, "everyone attack together!"
