The dagger that suddenly appeared, the blue crystal blade, was the trophy obtained by Lu Yuan from killing the traitor Wang Li when he regained Changning.
This blade is unrivaled in sharpness and ranks fourth in the list of divine blades.
Lu Yuan was now on the same level as Shi Xu'an, and his new magical power allowed the dagger to cause great damage, piercing Shi Xu'an's protective energy like a torrent.
Shi Xue'an was startled, then his short beard trembled and he grinned sinisterly:
"You have the guts to play dirty with me!"
He pulled out the blue crystal blade from his ribs, and wisps of blue profound energy poured out from the wound as the blade was pulled out.
The dagger had transmitted all the murderous sword energy to Shi Xue'an's chest, spinning and strangling him inside. After all, Shi Xue'an has a sixth-level cultivation level and can barely suppress these internal injuries.
With a flick of his left hand, the shield began to gather green light.
After another breath, its magical power can quickly heal this fatal wound.
For Shi Xue'an, with this artifact, he is almost immortal.
Although Lu Yuan was promoted to a higher level, this attack was still not enough in the face of such a powerful treatment.
The wound will soon feel a cooling healing sensation.
But what Shi Xu'an didn't expect was that there was no cooling sensation in his ribs, but a sharp pain in Tianling Gai!
The pain was as if the scalp had been cut off with a sharp blade, and then the skull had been cut open with a sharp instrument.
He looked up and saw an ancient mirror engraved with the head of a strange beast appearing in mid-air.
He felt as if his soul was being slowly pulled out by the ancient mirror.
Shi Xue'an seemed familiar with this mirror. Suddenly, he remembered that this was Yan Guozhong's magic weapon, the Soul-Eating Mirror!
Such a powerful magic weapon actually fell into the hands of this kid!
He actually attacked me while I was distracted by treatment. Ha ha!
Shi Xue'an was not angry but smiled, and suddenly an old voice came out from his mouth:
"Soul-Eating Mirror, put it away!"
When the mirror heard this, it swayed and fell into Shi Xue'an's hand.
And the power to absorb souls gradually decreased.
The old voice continued: "I helped Yan Guozhong sacrifice and refine his magic weapon, and it still contains the imprint of my soul. Boy, you..."
Halfway through his words, he suddenly stopped.
He looked at the mirror not far in front of him and said with some disbelief: "Mirror...this...?"
The soul-eating ancient mirror actually stopped where it was, motionless.
The power to absorb souls suddenly increased.
Shi Xu'an was rolling on the ground in pain, and cracks appeared on the ground due to the force he exerted.
He wanted to activate the shield again, but driving the artifact required the most concentration. Now he was too busy to take care of himself. How could he control the shield?
Lu Yuan's eyes glowed faintly red:
"The ancient mirror has been infiltrated by my demonic energy, and your mark has long been swallowed up by the demonic energy."
As he spoke, he controlled the flying sword to strike at Shixue'an again.
The latter endured the severe pain and tried his best to swing his shield and hit the ancient mirror.
The blue crystal blade suddenly flashed with azure light and stabbed diagonally towards his wrist.
Lu Yuan once again triggered the "Star Eye" magical power, and the dagger avoided the shield attack at an incredible angle and accurately hit the target.
Shi Xue'an's wrist went cold, and he immediately understood that he had been tricked again.
The connection between the shield and his soul immediately weakened.
He roared angrily, his hairband was broken, his hair suddenly spread out, his eyes were red, like an evil ghost.
An old voice sounded from his mouth: "Asura Tribulation Cloud!"
The Demon Sword of Annihilation that had reached the back of the neck was forcefully shaken away by this force.
In an instant, clusters of blood-red clouds appeared out of thin air above his head, quickly covering everything around him.
Lu Yuan in the cloud smelled the disgusting smell of blood, and his connection with the magical weapon, sword and demon attendant suddenly weakened.
Everything around is rapidly decomposing.
Decomposed into countless pieces of ash.
He immediately realized that this was the ultimate secret of the other party!
A trapped beast still fights, and a broken ship still has a thousand-pound nails.
Lu Yuan's eyes flashed and he let out a deafening roar at Shi Xu'an.
Mirror roar!
This is the technique of soul bombardment.
Shi Xue'an's soul was already on the verge of death after being beaten by the Soul-Eating Mirror. This time he used his last cultivation to activate the ultimate secret, which was the end of his strength.
Facing the powerful soul offensive, Shi Xue'an finally couldn't hold on any longer. He only heard a loud noise in his head, and then he felt like the world was spinning.
He took a deep breath, his throat felt sweet, and a large mouthful of black blood spurted out.
"Old thief, I know that you are not the only soul in your body. I kill you to free you."
Lu Yuan said softly but firmly.
Immediately, a cold voice sounded:
"The Heaven's Jue Demon-Suppressing Sword Formation!"
The light red sword energy blasted through the red clouds of Shi Xu'an, and countless Demon Swords of Annihilation swarmed out from the seal behind Lu Yuan, surrounding Shi Xu'an.
With a move from Lu Yuan's sword, the sword formation suddenly shrank, and the sounds of countless wind and thunder and the screams of Shi Xue'an's dying struggle suddenly came from inside.
A cloud of blood mist billowed in the sword formation, and a black shadow the size of a dragonfly was mixed in it. It rushed left and right in the sword formation, making a strange scream.
Lu Yuan frowned and stared at it.
In the end, it still failed to escape from the sword formation and turned into powder along with Shi Xue'an's body.
The only thing that was not damaged was the Nine Li Hua Xuan Shield.
Lu Yuan raised his right arm slightly and sucked the shield into his hand.
He was not in the mood to play with the artifact, so he just put it into the Rong Ring, and then stared at the big hole left on the ground after the sword formation disappeared.
The walls of the pit were covered with countless sword marks, and the soil was stained red with flesh and blood.
He let out a soft breath, and the stone in his heart relaxed a little.
During the Ningshi Rebellion, the two major thieves and chieftains have been crowned, and the remaining rebels are hopeless and will soon fall apart.
But the problem is not as simple as imagined.
I don't know what soul is controlling Shixue'an.
To be precise, the soul didn't take away his body, it was just helping him.
That old thief didn't know when he got into trouble with this evil spirit! It's a pity that now that he is dead, it is difficult to find useful clues.
Lu Yuan took a demon pill, found a relatively safe place and released two demon attendants, then quickly meditated and adjusted his breath.
After a while, his profound energy and physical strength returned to normal.
At the level of Demon King, the utilization rate of Demon Pills is already very high.
He stood up and stretched out comfortably, feeling that all the fatigue in his body had been swept away, and new energy was flowing freely through his body.
"Master, two people are coming." Guo Pu suddenly said.
Lu Yuan turned around and said, "I know. You two have worked hard, so go and rest first."
The demon servants nodded and turned into light and entered the gourd.
The two of them quickly arrived in front of Lu Yuan.
"Master Lu is truly a god in slaying demons! If Master Lu hadn't saved me this time, my life would have been hard to save!" Emperor Yu Su said with his face covered in blood.
Li Guangbi, who had recovered slightly from his serious injuries, bowed and said: "Thank you... thank you, Master Immortal, for saving your life! I will never forget you!"
Lu Yuan cupped his fists and returned the salute: "Your Majesty, General Li, there is no need to be polite. It is our duty to kill evil spirits. Today we are just doing justice for heaven."
"In any case, the immortal master has done a great job in slaying demons and protecting you, and I will reward you heavily!"
Lu Yuan laughed and said, "I am a mountain man, and fame and fortune are like floating clouds to me. What use do I need them? I only hope that in the future, your majesty will do little in favor of corvee, cut down on the foundation of the feudal vassal, and never let the world of hell reappear again!"
Emperor Yu Su paused for a moment, then said with a shy face, "The immortal master's teachings are indeed true! I want to worship the immortal master as my Taifu, and I hope that the immortal master will give you some advice sooner or later!"
Lu Yuan looked at the devastated land in the distance and sighed.
With a loud voice, he said: "I have no talent for governing the country. Looking at the world, there are many talented people, but the court ladies are in charge, and all the knowledgeable people are excluded and dismissed."
His eyes suddenly turned sharp: "Your Majesty, you should know that it was the fault of your father, Emperor Ming, who caused the country to collapse due to the close relationship with the wise and the far away from the nefarious. Li Qinglian, Du Shimei, Feng Changqing, Gao Xianzhi and others, who are not loyal to the country? What is their situation? How about it?"
Emperor Yu Su's face turned red and he was sweating profusely.
Secular authority has no effect on outsiders.
"The Immortal Master's teachings are correct! I...I will definitely observe the true nature of a loyal woman in the future, govern the country diligently, and live up to the Immortal Master's wishes."
Lu Yuan smiled lightly and said, "It doesn't matter if you fail me or not, as long as you don't fail the loyal people."
Emperor Suhuang hurriedly said "yes" several times, and suddenly the topic changed:
"Master Immortal, that... that shield..."
