The Lord of Void and Real
Chapter 1526

Chapter 1526: Chapter 1522: The Fist Strikes, The Formation Breaks Chapter 1526: Chapter 1522: The Fist Strikes, The Formation Breaks Nurse Yu stabilized her stance, then immediately drove the Purple Stream Armor to attack Shen Luo.

However, by this time, Shen Luo had already grown accustomed to the armor's attack methods and speed, and he promptly ducked in just the right way to avoid the strike.

Simultaneously, he used one hand to uphold and withstand the Long Knife of the armor, while the other hand, clutching a Longsword, thrust towards the very end of the Long Knife's hilt held by the Purple Stream Armor.

Only a “crack” sound was heard!

The gemstone at the tip of the Long Knife cracked upon impact, spraying a purple halo.

Immediately after, the movements of the armor came to a complete halt, and the purple smoke that formed its shape started to disperse unconstrainedly. Simultaneously, the Long Knife also dropped to the ground with a “clack”.

“As expected, the key of the armor is not within its body but hidden in the weapon,” Shen Luo said with a light chuckle upon seeing this.

Nurse Yu saw the Purple Stream Armor defeated and a flicker of panic crossed her eyes, but she soon regained her composure and looked at Shen Luo with a bit of pity: “While you've been wasting your time here, Tianji City is about to return to its master's hands.”

Shen Luo certainly understood the meaning of her words, but at the moment, he must first rescue the Nameless Elder and Elder Fu before he can attend to other matters.

Besides, he also believed that as long as Little Master was still in Tianji City, they wouldn't be able to cause much of a stir.

“Since you prefer to hide your head like a turtle, then just stay here obediently and watch how I break your Formation,” Shen Luo said with an unaffected smile.

Having said that, he approached one of the Metal Steles at the base and swung his Longsword heavily down on the Stele.

Enveloped with blazing Flame, the Longsword struck the Stele, scattering flames everywhere.

However, the sturdiness of the Stele was far beyond Shen Luo's expectations. When the flames and Sword light dispersed, only a shallow mark remained on it.

Shen Luo's brow furrowed slightly, then he channeled his Mana once more, delivering an even more powerful and heavier slash at the Stele.

But when the Flame extinguished, what remained on the Metal Stele was still just a white mark, albeit slightly deeper, yet still undamaged.

“Haha, it seems you have no idea how to handle the Yinshu Ancient Array I've set up,” Nurse Yu said, her face breaking into a greater smile upon seeing this.

Upon hearing this, Shen Luo stepped forward to inspect the Metal Stele closely, then noticed a deeper trace near the two Sword marks, his gaze flickering suddenly, and he hurriedly looked at the Long Knife on the ground, his eyes filled with a bit of confusion.

The marks on the Stele were from previous attacks of the Purple Stream Armor, yet Shen Luo remembered they were not that deep before.

He quickly walked over, picked up the Long Knife from the ground, and after a moment's hesitation, swiftly channeled the Artifact Refining Secret to refine the knife by fifty percent.

Then, Shen Luo transferred his Mana into the Long Knife, the purple Yan Pattern on the blade brightening instantly. With a casual swing of the blade, Light Mark surged forth from the blade, and though it did not touch the Ground, it carved a mark on the surface.

“So that's how it is…”

Only now did Shen Luo realize why the Purple Stream Armor's blade had hurt him without a direct hit?

He had originally thought it was due to the sharpness of the Long Knife, but now he discovered that it was the corrosive force contained within the Qi released from the blade that caused his clothes to tear slightly after the blade passed.

This was also the reason why the mark on the Stele was a bit deeper than when it was first struck.

Shen Luo advanced with the blade, poured his Mana into the Long Knife, and swung down towards the previous mark on the Stele.

A sharp “clang” sound echoed.

The Long Knife indeed cut into the mark on the Stele, but it wasn't deep, and no significant change was visible.

Seeing this, Shen Luo did not rush to pull out the Long Knife, but continued to channel his Mana into the blade, stirring it to unleash waves of corrosive knife Qi, relentlessly bombarding the cut mark.

This move turned out to be effective.

The cut mark within the Metal Stele began to expand visibly.

“You're seeking death.”

At this point, Nurse Yu finally couldn't sit still any longer. She retracted the Octagonal Copper Bell hovering above her head and charged out of the protective Light Shield, wielding her Walking Stick and thrusting it directly towards Shen Luo's back.

The Ghost General, seeing this, also immediately pursued Nurse Yu to attack.

Just then, Shen Luo suddenly turned around and shouted, “I was waiting for you.”

He then suddenly opened his mouth and spat out six Pure Yang Flying Swords at once. Each sword split into three Sword Shadows, transforming into eighteen Flying Swords flying towards the old woman from various angles.

Although these eighteen Flying Swords didn't form a Sword Array, each one was precisely angled. Together with Zhao Feiji from the rear, they blocked all of Nurse Yu's potential escape routes.

Seeing this, the old woman's figure suddenly sank, attempting to escape underground once again.

However, Shen Luo wasn't about to give her the chance. Just as she dropped down, forcefully diverting one of the Pure Yang Flying Swords, a figure emerged unexpectedly through the earth, holding the seventh Pure Yang Flying Sword, lunging directly at the old woman's heart.

It turned out that Shen Luo had prepared a retreat for himself when he came pursuing, placing the Taiyi Armor deeper underground. If he couldn't overcome the opponent, he would escape underground and use it to fend off the enemy to save himself.

Unexpectedly, this became a brilliant finishing move to execute Nurse Yu.

Nurse Yu was shocked but knew she had no way to dodge. The Walking Stick in her hand glowed brightly as she exhausted all her strength to stab at the suddenly appearing figure below.

Both struck the other nearly at the same time.

It was a pity that the Taiyi Armor was exceptionally sturdy, and Nurse Yu's Walking Stick couldn't penetrate it, while the Pure Yang Flying Sword pierced through her chest.

Time was of the essence, and Shen Luo dared not leave any vulnerabilities, immediately urging the Pure Yang Flying Sword.

A piercing cry sounded, and a firebird spread its wings on the Sword body. In an instant, the fiery flames engulfed Nurse Yu's body.

Shen Luo, seeing the burning flames and no longer sensing Nurse Yu's Breath, exhaled and turned back to continue corroding the Metal Stele with the Long Knife.

After a while, the cracks on the Metal Stele gradually widened and finally broke apart completely.

Shen Luo then punched the broken Metal Stele, splitting it from the Fissure into two.

The upper half of the Stele fell heavily, and the Array of Ancient Yan Text was finally broken; a beam of light immediately came down through the cave entrance in the dome.

Shen Luo looked up and saw a head appearing in the Void, shouting down, “Who is breaking the Formation below?”

“Elder Fu, it's me.” Shen Luo recognized the voice and responded.

“Good kid, well done,” Elder Fu exclaimed with joy and praised.

“Friend Shen, come up and talk first. What exactly happened in Tianji City?” The voice of the Nameless Elder followed.

Shen Luo acknowledged, withdrawing the Pure Yang Flying Swords and Taiyi Armor with his hand and sending the Ghost General back to the Free and Easy Mirror.

Just as he was about to ascend, he glanced at the half Metal Stele on the Ground, waved his hand to put it into the Storage Ring, then leaped up, passing through the Hole into the Secret Chamber of the Nameless Elder.
