Chapter 313: Fourth Dharma Idol

The condensed energy turned into a huge transparent energy ball and spread in the surroundings.
Lu Yuan’s hiltless broken sword fell for a moment before it quickly collided with the spiritual energy turbulence.
The spiritual energy turbulence that could easily destroy a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator was unable to force the broken sword back.
The broken sword spine emitted a large amount of metal power, the sword body emitted a large amount of fire power, and the sword edge emitted a high amount of sharpness.
While the explosion of the chaos dragon corpse generated spiritual energy, it only managed to stall Lu Yuan’s broken sword for a moment.
Whoosh!
The hiltless broken sword pierced through the majestic spiritual energy turbulence and stabbed into the neck of the chaos dragon corpse on the spot.
And that dealt the final blow to the chaos dragon corpse.
As the dust settled, a lone dragon head appeared in the ruins.
The Moongazer Serpent King of Hell, who had retreated more than five kilometers, was shocked beyond words.
Lu Yuan had actually beheaded the half-step Apotheosis Stage cultivator with a single sword strike.
If word got out that a Core Formation Stage cultivator had killed a half-step Apotheosis Stage cultivator, no one would believe it!
However, when the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell saw Lu Yuan’s situation, his mood immediately improved.
At the moment, Lu Yuan was in a very sorry state. The Daoist robe on his body was tattered, and his face was pale.
A huge wound appeared on his abdomen, and blood stained his entire body.
The injuries on Lu Yuan’s body were still light, but Lu Yuan’s divine soul was very weak at the moment.
For a Core Formation Stage cultivator, the most troublesome situation was an injured divine soul.
If Lu Yuan was not careful, it might even affect his future breakthrough.
After confirming that Nong Ping was completely dead and that the chaos dragon corpse had lost its vitality, the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell came to Lu Yuan’s side. “Lu Yuan, are you okay?”
After seeing that the Moongazer Serpent King of Heil indeed had no intention of taking advantage of him, Lu Yuan was shocked.
Lu Yuan quietly put down the magic item on his back.
Not bad, the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell was a reliable teammate.
“It’s fine. I’ll just meditate and adjust.”
“All, all right then. 1’11 protect you.”
With that, the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell commanded his subordinates to clean up the battlefield.
The Moongazer Serpent King of Hell didn’t know that he had just avoided the gates of hell.
Despite how weak and miserable Lu Yuan seemed at the moment, the injuries on his body were all deliberately caused by himself.
It was to create the illusion that he had barely defeated the chaos dragon corpse after risking his life.
It was already shocking for a Core Formation Stage cultivator to defeat a half-step Apotheosis Stage cultivator, let alone if Lu Yuan were to do it while being largely unscathed.
Although Lu Yuan was confident that today’s matter would not be known by too many people Lu Yuan also knew that it was impossible to completely block the information.
After all, even though the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell was in the underworld, it was possible that he would interact with the cultivators of the Upper Realm in the future.
Thus, Lu Yuan could not be sure how long today’s situation could be kept a secret.
Therefore, he had to make sure that the information that the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell revealed was fake.
To always hold back was already an instinct that was engraved in Lu Yuan’s bones.
While Lu Yuan was putting on a show with the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell, a figure quietly appeared from the back mountains of the Shixian Sect territory and fled into the distance at the fastest speed.
Because of Lu Yuan’s earlier battle with the chaos dragon corpse, the spiritual energy in the surrounding environment had become extremely violent.
The destroyed Corrupted Divine Soul Array Lu Yuan had set up further contributed to the energy fluctuations.
As a result, the energy waves within 50 kilometers of the Shixian Sect’s territory was very complicated. Dharma Idol power, spiritual energy, and the corrupted divine soul power intertwined with each other.
Under such circumstances, it would undoubtedly affect the perception of cultivators to a large extent.
As a result, the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell and Lu Yuan didn’t seem to notice the figure who had sneaked out.
The person who was running away was none other than Nong Ping, the patriarch of the Shixian Sect.
The current Nong Ping was possessing a direct disciple of the Shixian Sect.
The direct disciple was a path of retreat that Nong Ping had left for himself in the event he failed to fuse with the dragon corpse.
Therefore, after Nong Ping’s Nascent Soul came out of the dragon, it easily entered the new body.
However, due to the cultivation of the new body, Nong Ping could only display the cultivation of a Core Formation Stage First Level cultivator.
“D*mn it, where did that junior come from? I’ve never seen him before, so why did he ruin my plans?”
When Nong Ping thought about how he had failed to transcend to the Apotheosis Stage through Tribulation Crossing because of Lu Yuan, Nong Ping gritted his teeth so hard that they were about to shatter.
However, at the moment, he could only suppress his grudges and unwillingness in his heart.
That was because he could not guarantee that Lu Yuan would not discover his method of possession and rebirth.
Nong Ping no longer had any other life-saving methods.
If Lu Yuan discovered him at this time, given Nong Ping’s current strength, even if Lu Yuan was injured, he would definitely be able to kill Nong Ping like killing an ant.
After Nong Ping anxiously run for two hours, he finally stopped.
In order to avoid being discovered, he did not dare to ride a flying sword for two hours.
Fortunately, it was all worth it.
As long as Nong Ping ran a little further, he would be able to reach the territory of the Xueyang Sect.
After arriving at Xueyang Sect, Nong Ping just needed to blend into the crowd. It would not be easy for Lu Yuan to find him again.
Thinking of that, Nong Ping finally heaved a sigh of relief.
He had no idea how long it had been since he had experienced this feeling of life and death.
Fortunately, he survived.
As for the failure of the breakthrough, what was it compared to death?
Only a living cultivator had a future!
Just as Nong Ping heaved a sigh of relief, he looked ahead in disbelief.
A familiar figure appeared under a tree not far away.
“You…”
Nong Ping looked at Lu Yuan, who was standing under a tree not far away, with an extremely terrified expression.
“Are you wondering why I’m here?”
Nong Ping nodded.
But before he could hear Lu Yuan’s answer, Nong Ping found that his vision was replaced by a ray of light.
He saw his body turn into ashes with a flash of lightning.
Lu Yuan walked up to Nong Ping, who had been turned into a pile of ashes, and said very calmly, “Do 1 have to tell you just because you asked?”
Lu Yuan waved his hand and directly put Nong Ping’s mala beads into his bag.
As for why Lu Yuan was there, it was simple.
That was because he had anticipated Nong Ping’s divine soul escaping from the start.
Therefore, Lu Yuan had arranged for his clones to be stationed around the Shixian Sect without telling anyone.
Even the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell didn’t know that Lu Yuan would have such a huge combat force to prevent the enemy from escaping rather than to fight off the enemy.
Not only did Lu Yuan arrange for clones, but he also released a large number of Paper Men around the Shixian Sect.
Not even a mosquito could escape, let alone a cultivator.
The reason why he had Nong Ping run so far was that Lu Yuan didn’t want the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell to know that he still had the strength to deal with Nong Ping’s escaping body.
That was why he lured Nong Ping a distance away.
At this point, things were basically over.
Nong Ping was truly dead now, his soul scattered.
Lu Yuan’s trip to the Shixian Sect could be said to have come to a successful end.
Next, Lu Yuan had to collect the dragon bone of the chaos dragon corpse, and then use the method of resurrecting the Ancient Winged Tiger to resurrect the dragon bone.
Finally, he would rely on visualization to cultivate his fourth Dharma Idol as soon as possible.
Once Lu Yuan cultivated the azure dragon Dharma Idol power, his Lesser Celestial Eradication Sword Array would be thoroughly completed.
The difference between the Lesser Celestial Eradication Sword Array and the power of three Dharma Idols was not just the difference of one Dharma Idol. It was very likely that the difference was ten Dharma Idols’ worth of power.
Lu Yuan felt that with the Lesser Celestial Eradication Sword Array, he might even be able to kill an Apotheois Stage cultivator….
