The Lord of Void and Real-Chapter 259 - 257: Ma Mian Subdues the Demon

Chapter 259: Chapter 257: Ma Mian Subdues the Demon

The symbols on the black ring flashed, and a ghastly ghostly head appeared, letting out a piercing screech. Black sound waves churned out from it, slamming directly onto the ground.

An enormous force immediately rebounded from the ground, propelling Shen Luo’s body into mid-air.

Almost simultaneously, a pitch-black water arrow shot over the surface of the ground, piercing a hole the size of a fist in the hem of his clothes, hitting the cave stone wall behind him.

As Shen Luo was falling, he abruptly stretched out his left hand and used his full strength to operate the Nameless Cultivation Technique, reaching out towards the Water Devil.

The body of the Water Devil is coagulated from dark liquid and still essentially water. While Shen Luo’s Water Manipulation Technique cannot control it, it can exert a slight pull.

Under the pull of this Water Technique, the body of the Water Devil swayed slightly forward while Shen Luo took advantage of it, directly propelling himself towards it with his uninjured right foot touching the ground.

Just as they were close, the Water Devil suddenly opened its bloody mouth again, condensing a large black light ball with hints of light threads and heavy Yin Sha breath.

With a “pu” sound, the dark light sphere suddenly sprayed out, heading straight for Shen Luo’s face.

Shen Luo’s hands trembled, and seven or eight Small Thunder Talismans flew out simultaneously, flashed white, and exploded.

“Boom!”

Accompanied by a deafening thunderclap, an arm-thick white lightning appeared out of nowhere from the exploding talisman, like a snow-white spear of light, it directly pierced the light sphere and exploded.

The white light scattered in the center of the black light sphere, tearing open a huge hole.

Shen Luo’s body circulated the Nameless Cultivation Technique at full power, a shout erupted from his mouth, and a blue light flourished in front of him, conjuring a water shield and blocking the remnants of the exploding black light sphere.

His figure pierced through and appeared directly in front of the Water Devil.

Shen Luo used the water shield as a brace, pushed slightly on the Water Devil as he flew over its back, releasing more than ten talismans from his hand.

The talisman papers fell right above the Water Devil’s head and suddenly a white light flared up.

Immediately after, a white bolt of lightning, twice as thick as usual, emerged from mid-air. With dazzling radiance, it crashed down onto the Water Devil.

“Rumble!”

Accompanied by a loud explosion, the head of the Water Devil burst open abruptly, splattering a mass of sticky black fluid.

A wisp of dark red-black Demonic Qi was swept by the electric light and immediately dispersed.

This Demonic Qi seemed to have some subtle connection with the Asura Puppet Ghost. The moment it was smashed, the Puppet Ghost also let out a harsh scream.

It glared at Shen Luo, its blood-red eyes revealing a clear look of shock and anger.

It twirled a Demon Subduing Pestle in its left hand, creating a blurred phantom image. It seemed to have opened up a golden round shield, blocking a strike from the Horse Face Iron Brush.

Immediately following, it raised its right arm and swung forcefully, launching the pointed Demon Subduing Pestle at Shen Luo at high speed.

Shen Luo’s left leg was severely injured, he could no longer perform Slanting Moon Steps and was incapable of dodging. He seemed certain to be hit.

Just then, there was a “clang” sound, a red lock chain coiled with black fog shot out from Ma Mian’s sleeve, coiling around Shen Luo’s waist like a snake, tugging and pulling him away.

“Are you okay?” Soul Hook Horse Face pulled Shen Luo to his side and asked.

“I got hurt a bit, but it’s not serious.” Shen Luo shook his head and said.

Soul Hook Horse Face was about to instruct something when a strong wind suddenly attacked from the front. The Asura Puppet Ghost was coming back for an attack so he had to immediately confront it.

The Asura Puppet Ghost began to moan low in its throat, and the Demon Subduing Pestle in its left hand instantly shone brightly with golden light, condensing into a colossal phantom several times bigger, which headed straight towards Soul Hook Horse Face, aiming to crush his head.

Soul Hook Horse Face swiftly drew a series of strokes in the void with the Soul Hook Brush. Red characters came into existence instantly, their strokes linked, transforming into a massive Blood Web. With an upward sweep, the phantom of the Demon Subduing Pestle was entirely caged within it.

At the same time, he waved his other sleeve and a crimson chain, enveloped in black mist, shot out once again. It maneuvered past the Demon Subduing Pestle and wound itself around the body of the Asura Puppet Ghost.

The latter seemed to have anticipated this. Another Demon Subduing Pestle rotated at high speed in its palm. Clanging sounds of metal and stone echoed as it flew out of its hand and collided heavily with the chain, causing both to be repelled in opposite directions.

However, the force of the Demon Subduing Pestle seemed greater. After retreating slightly, it whirls around again, charging directly at Soul Hook Horse Face.

Soul Hook Horse Face had one hand controlling the shrinking Blood Web with the Soul Hook Pen while his other hand pulling on the Ghost Binding Chain was having trouble retracting it, unable to block the incoming Demon Subduing Pestle.

At this moment, a piercing howl like a wail of ghosts and howl of wolves sounded as circles of black sound waves rushed out to strike against the Demon Subduing Pestle.

There came a muffled “bang”.

A flash of golden light on the Demon Subduing Pestle directly shattered the sound waves, its charge only delayed for a moment before it continued its attack on Soul Hook Horse Face.

But in that brief moment, not only did Soul Hook Horse Face not dodge, he made even more vigorous efforts to stimulate the power of his Soul Hook Pen. The massive Blood Web, like the gaping maw of a deep blood basin, violently swallowed the Demon Subduing Pestle whole and bore on towards the Puppet Ghost.

Seeing this, the Asura Puppet Ghost also hardened its heart, not trying to dodge nor retreat, using all its strength to direct the Demon Subduing Pestle towards Horse Face.

The two were surprisingly in unison, planning to exchange injuries with each other.

Again came the muffled “bang”.

When Soul Hook Horse Face was struck by the Demon Subduing Pestle, his robes suddenly burst into a reddish light like a massive Other Shore Flower blossoming around him. Layers of petal-like red light resisted the impact of the pestle, gradually withering and shattering.

But ultimately, it was blocked.

As the great power surge went through him, Soul Hook Horse Face involuntarily spit out a mouthful of fresh blood, but the Soul Hook Pen in his hand fell heavily.

Red light flickered at the pen’s tip and the Blood Web, formed ahead, also finally contracted, trapping the Asura Puppet Ghost within.

At the same time, the crimson chain followed suit, snaking around the Puppet Ghost’s body.

The Asura Puppet Ghost was completely restrained, and the Demon Subduing Pestle aiming at Soul Hook Horse Face lost its control, falling to the ground.

“Finally, it’s caught…” Seeing this, Shen Luo was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

Soul Hook Horse Face also gave a long sigh, smiling, “Catching a demonic being alive this time, once we return to the Underworld, it’s my turn to show off. Those old coots who’ve always been acting high and mighty before me.”

Hearing these somewhat immature words, Shen Luo was rendered speechless.

After Soul Hook Horse Face finished speaking, he began to draw in the void with the Soul Hook Pen. This time, he was not writing any talismanic characters, but rather outlining some sort of a Rune Array, drawing a large circular light chart.

However, before he could complete it, an unexpected change occurred!
