The Lord of Void and Real

Chapter 102: Chapter 101: Borrowing the Body to Resurrect the Soul

About a dozen feet away, a tall figure clad in dark black armor stood there, hunching forward slightly. The once square face was completely distorted, the nose shortened and darkened, the chin sharpened, and the ears lengthened. He looked just like a fox.

More eerily, in the middle of his forehead, the flesh split open, revealing an amber vertical eye.

“Three-eyed Demon Fox, you’re still alive!?” Shen Luo blurted out.

The demon fox ignored his question, its gaze fixed on the pond behind him, seemingly preoccupied with the golden finger bone.

“His aura is somewhat strange?” After retreating two steps and standing shoulder to shoulder with Shen Luo, Zhui Tou said, somewhat bewildered.

“It’s a Three-eyed Fox Demon that has possessed a monk’s body. I thought they perished together…” As Shen Luo spoke, he signaled to Zhui Tou.

The Three-eyed Fox Demon caught a glimpse of this, a hint of mockery flashed in its eyes, it broke out in a gritty voice.

“Speaking of which, I have to thank you. If you hadn’t buried me underground, I wouldn’t have been able to absorb the abundant spiritual power and fully merge with Wu Pojia’s flesh and blood. So I advise you not to resist aimlessly. Submit to me, and I might spare your life.”

Shen Luo made no reply; he looked at Zhui Tou with questioning eyes.

“His aura is unstable; it should be that the soul hasn’t fully integrated. His strength should be considerably affected.” Zhui Tou said in a hushed voice.

“Do we stand a chance?” Shen Luo asked.

“The odds are not great, but it’s not impossible either.” Zhui Tou answered with a wicked smile.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Having heard these words, Shen Luo’s heart was relieved, but just as his eyes flickered, he swiftly crouched.

The next moment, a cool breeze swept over his head. A few strands of his hair were sliced off, falling before his eyes.

From Shen Luo’s sleeve, a faint white light emanated, it was an exorcism charm that he had silently inscribed with fresh blood as soon as he saw the demon fox, to defend against a furtive attack by the demon fox.

“Come and fight!”

Seeing its sneak attack had failed, the Demon Fox no longer disguised itself. It let out a harsh scream, and three thick, fox tails, as tall as itself, suddenly appeared behind it.

Its body flashed with a yellow light, two of the fox tails instantaneously expanded by several meters. With gusty winds following their sweeps, they lashed out at Shen Luo and Zhui Tou.

Shen Luo dared not receive them head-on, so he leaped to dodge the attack.

But Zhui Tou wasn’t retreating, he took a bold step forward, his hands dragging the golden hammer. He rounded and swung the hammer with a violent wind toward the fox’s tail.

A loud “boom” sound echoed, like a thunderclap!

The fox’s tail was hit directly and rolled back. The Three-eyed Demon Fox was thrown off balance.

After his hammer strike, Zhui Tou vaulted into the air, raised his hammer above his head and smashed it down toward the Demon Fox.

The Fox Demon hurriedly pulled back its three tails, crossed them in front of it, and blocked the attack from above.

The impact caused the Demon Fox’s body to shake, but it did not break through the tail’s defense.

The Fox Demon let out a nasty laugh. All three tails simultaneously swung outwards, launching Zhui Tou into the air. Suddenly, a burst of blood light flashed from the vertical eye on its brow, and a beam of red light shot out.

The red light moved extremely fast. Zhui Tou, who was suspended mid-air, had no time to react, and it looked like he was going to take a direct hit.

At that moment, a bright emerald light suddenly flared up. It was a crystal-clear liquid, bright as jade, shooting towards him, blocking his chest like a shield.

With a “thud”, the red light hit the water mass, instantly causing countless splashes.

However, the water mass that was hit didn’t immediately disintegrate. Instead, it stalled momentarily with the red light, before being pierced through.

Zhui Tou managed to twist his body to avoid the vital point, but was still knocked over with a “thud”, emitting a mournful cry.

When Shen Luo rushed forward, he noticed that Zhui Tou’s armor had been corroded and pierced through, a blue liquid similar to blood was leaking from the wound, it was evident that he was injured.

The Demon Fox, successful in its attack, shot another blood light from its vertical eye.

Zhui Tou sprung to his feet, swinging the iron hammer in his hand to block the blood light.

Shen Luo raised his hand, and the emerald green liquid drawn from the pond, under the effect of the Water Control Technique, transformed into a water wolf carved from jade, and lunged at the Demon Fox.

The Demon Fox merely swiped its tail, directly shattering the water wolf into droplets of water, and its figure rushed through the droplets towards Shen Luo.

But the scattered droplets converged in mid-air, yet again forming a water wolf which dove at the Demon Fox’s back.

The Demon Fox, caught off guard, was bitten at the back of its neck, it roared angrily, with a backhand grip on the water wolf’s head, and squeezed hard with its five fingers.

The water wolf couldn’t bear the grip and burst open, causing water to splash all over. Under the subsequent sweep of the Fox’s tail, it transformed into a large mist of water, no longer able to aggregate again.

Before Shen Luo could react, the Demon Fox trembled slightly, and its fur shot out furiously, transforming into seven or eight nearly transparent giant blades in mid-air, hacking towards Shen Luo.

Zhui Tou’s figure flashed, blocking Shen Luo, the iron hammer in his hands spun like a Gyro, creating a blue vortex which knocked down three or four giant blades.

After Shen Luo dodged a close combat slash, he rolled and picked up two flame short spears from the edge of the pond, crossed them in front of him, fending off the attacks from the last two giant blades.

Just as Shen Luo and Zhui Tou managed to ward off this round of attack, three huge fox tails swept at them with a powerful gust.

One tail swept across, disrupting the vortex Zhui Tou had created, then another tail followed up and smacked him, sending him flying five to six yards away, landing right into a pile of magical instruments by the pond. The remaining tail was thrust out, targeting Shen Luo’s head.

Shen Luo crossed the two short spears in front of him, rings of fire enveloped the bodies of the spears.

The fox’s tail retracted just before it could touch the spears, but immediately followed by a “whooshing” sound, it turned into seven or eight transparent giant blades, attacking Shen Luo with a sweeping force!

At the critical moment, Shen Luo frantically danced the double spears in his hands, he was in a flurry, his figure swaying. Although he managed to block most of the giant blades, one managed to slice his thigh, he grunted and knelt down, but his eyes intentionally or unintentionally swept quickly towards the direction of the pond.

“Overestimating your abilities!”

The Demon Fox sneered. With a sweep of a fox tail, it wrapped around Shen Luo’s waist and pulled him to its front, as the blood light in its third eye prepared to shoot through his skull.

Shen Luo suddenly raised one of his palms at the Demon Fox, squeezing out all his strength, he shouted, “Down!”

A thunderous rumble echoed through the underground cave.

A white lightning bolt as thick as an arm shot out from his palm, accurately hitting the vertical eye on the Demon Fox’s forehead.

“Ahhh…”

The Three-eyed Demon Fox howled painfully, retreating several steps. Its three tails flailed wildly, Shen Luo was flung hard by a tail against a white stalagmite. With a “Gah” sound, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
