Chapter 627 The Power of the Code
Huai Jun always felt that Lu Zheng dared to fight him to the death because he often had some powerful backing.
However, Lu Zheng has been using his own methods and power, and it is unknown how he managed to enter the Tongxuan realm in one fell swoop.
Only now did Huai Jun have a thought: Lu Zheng's confidence came from his own strength, not from someone else's trump card.
Lu Zheng's gaze was intense as he sensed the changes within himself.
To others, it was unbelievable that he could break through a major realm in a single battle.
But Lu Zheng knew very well that all of this was just a natural progression.
The way of the sky is more than damage but not enough to make up for.
He is better at communicating with heaven and earth than his opponents, which can be described as the opportune moment.
On Green Locust Mountain, in a place filled with evil and malevolent energy, it wasn't actually disadvantageous to him.
He possesses the righteous energy of heaven and earth, and standing here is the right path, an advantage of the location.
He is wholeheartedly devoted to saving all living beings, thus winning their hearts; this is the way of humanity.
He has the right timing, the right place, and the right people; he has all three.
"thunder……"
Lu Zheng's clear and melodious voice suddenly echoed throughout the world.
Needless to say, poems and lyrics responded one after another in the literary palace.
A mysterious and profound power emanates from within, directly connecting heaven and earth, Confucianism and Taoism.
In an instant, the heavens and earth trembled with wind and thunder.
Thousands of thunderbolts descended from the heavens, instantly engulfing the entire Green Locust Mountain in a sea of lightning.
Lightning flashed and thunder roared incessantly.
The nearby low-level demons and ghosts were terrified and fled in terror, hiding in their shells.
Some timid and cowardly monsters were so frightened that they were scared to death on the spot.
Yunhe murmured, "It can actually reach this level?"
Upon entering the Profound Realm, one only needs to utter a single word to summon such terrifying power of heaven and earth thunder, making one's words become law.
Such ease in employing these techniques is rare even among cultivators at the Profound Realm.
Lu Zheng was a young man who had just broken through the border.
Ku Xin couldn't help but touch his bald head. He felt that even after years of cultivation, if he were to face Lu Zheng, his Buddhist practice might not be able to withstand the ordeal.
He had only ever seen such a vigorous young man in legends before.
Under the thunderous roar, the black barrier on Green Locust Mountain shattered completely.
Such a barrier is utterly powerless against the force of thunder and lightning.
Countless demonic trees in the mountains were charred by lightning.
The extremely powerful and yang lightning made dealing with these demonic trees as easy as crushing ants.
Huai Jun was enveloped in a thick demonic aura and possessed numerous magical artifacts, which helped him withstand the onslaught of heavenly lightning.
But those trusted men who remained in the mountains did not escape.
In that short time, Lu Zheng guided the lightning to completely obliterate those demons, leaving not a trace.
After being swept by thunder, the entire Qinghuai Mountain turned gray and black, but the air became much fresher.
Outside the mountain, everyone saw the new look of Qinghuai Mountain, and their expressions changed.
The power of the heavens was truly terrifying; it turned a blessed land into ruins.
Of course, the so-called auspicious land is a concept held by these evil cultivators and demons in the Northern Region.
Seeing his territory destroyed, Huai Jun's eyes blazed with rage, and his heart surged with endless killing intent.
He knew that today was truly the day he would fight to the death.
As for what happens next, we'll have to wait until we get through this ordeal.
Huai Jun took a deep breath, and with just a thought, the remaining demonic energy and vitality within Qinghuai Mountain instantly empowered him.
A vortex of spiritual energy formed around Huai Jun, frantically devouring its surroundings.
Lu Zheng raised his hand, and the righteous energy of heaven and earth condensed into a long sword.
With a swing of the longsword, the righteous energy of heaven and earth transformed into a hundred-foot-long sword aura, slashing straight towards Huai Jun.
As Huai Jun thought, countless branches grew from his body, shattering the sword energy.
At the same time, countless branches turned into dust, drifting and scattering.
"Die!"
Huai Jun's eyes were sharp, with a hint of madness.
As he spoke, Huai Jun took out one magical treasure after another, and used his own mysterious power to suppress Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng remained calm and composed, handling the situation with unhurried ease.
Although the opponent was a peak expert at the Transcendent Realm, his demonic aura was too malevolent.
Lu Zheng is currently cultivating the righteous energy of heaven and earth, which contains the power of heaven and earth and can suppress such demonic energy in every aspect.
In addition, Lu Zheng's physique was not weak either, and he possessed the qualities of a scholar, making him no ordinary scholar.
In terms of physical strength, he is no less than any other body cultivator at the same level.
Not to mention that Lu Zheng still has enough righteous energy from heaven and earth to protect his body.
Even if they directly confront it with their bodies, they will not be suppressed by Huai Jun in an instant, nor will their life force be taken away.
The two fought amidst the ruins, unleashing a constant barrage of magical artifacts and profound techniques.
Many people lacked the skill to even clearly see the two figures; they could only vaguely discern a shimmering light, a trace of the battle.
Some people with profound knowledge of the martial arts world, seeing the two sides fighting so fiercely, even suspected that Lu Zheng might have received some kind of power boost.
They found it hard to believe that a young man possessed such formidable combat power; he didn't seem like a human Confucian cultivator at all.
Unfortunately, the energy fluctuations caused by the battle between the two sides were too chaotic, and without directly facing Lu Zheng, it was impossible to discern the underlying principles for the time being.
As the fight went on, everyone saw one of the figures gradually grow taller.
In just a few breaths, Huai Jun transformed into a tree-man several dozen feet tall, revealing his true form. A dense demonic aura once again enveloped the area, almost completely obscuring Lu Zheng's figure. Even from a distance, everyone felt a terrifying fluctuation of energy.
"Have you driven Huai Jun to this point...?"
A powerful demon's eyes flashed with light, somewhat unable to believe what he was seeing.
On the mountain, Huaijun transformed into a tree person and began burning his essence blood.
Countless branches lashed out wildly, all trying to entangle Lu Zheng.
A branch tore through space and instantly approached Lu Zheng's body.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Zheng was wrapped and bound by hard branches.
A powerful force tightened the branches, determined to crush Lu Zheng into dust.
Lu remained unfazed, releasing the power of the classic texts within his body.
In an instant, Lu Zheng received a boost of power, and his momentum remained undiminished.
His body was instantly engulfed in white flames, the true fire of the sun, fueled by the righteous energy of heaven and earth, a raging inferno.
Huai Jun immediately felt an extremely hot aura. Even though he was a powerful demon at the Tongxuan level, his instincts drove him to stay away from such flames.
Huai Jun quickly cut off the wooden cocoon made of branches and threw it up the mountain.
At the same time, he used his strength to cut off huge rocks.
The mountain rocks, carrying immense demonic power and immense weight, crashed down upon the wooden cocoon, forcefully burying Lu Zheng within the palace ruins.
Immediately afterwards, Huai Jun detonated one magical treasure after another, unleashing their power to form a large array in an attempt to refine Lu Zheng.
The people in the distance saw that Lu Zheng was suppressed under a small mountain and had been motionless for a while, while Huai Jun was still there continuously using his power to refine it.
"This is...being suppressed?"
"I knew it. No matter how strong he is, how could a young man like him possibly defeat Lord Huai? Lord Huai is someone who can ask questions."
"Isn't he a disciple of a sage? Taking out the life-saving item given to him by the sage isn't something that can be done in an instant..."
"It's just a rumor. If he were truly a disciple of a sage, could he have fought like this?"
……
For a moment, some onlookers whispered among themselves.
A hint of anxiety appeared in his eyes; Lu Zheng couldn't be allowed to get hurt.
He hasn't received the Buddhist scriptures from Lu Zheng yet.
Suddenly, Ku Xin turned to look at Yun He beside him. Seeing Yun He's calm expression, he felt a little relieved.
While the onlookers were gossiping, Huai Jun's expression was not very pleasant.
He could clearly sense that Lu Zheng was underground, but his demonic power couldn't get close to Lu Zheng's body and he couldn't refine him.
Lu Zheng's body was still surging with power, which was resisting him, and neither could do anything to the other for the time being.
Upon seeing this, the tree trembled, and a wooden coffin emerged from its trunk.
The coffin exuded a sinister and mysterious power.
This is a coffin that Huai Jun obtained while exploring an ancient site. It is unknown what kind of wood it is made of, but it contains special power that can suppress a person inside the coffin and refine them into pure spiritual energy.
In this situation, Huai Jun no longer concealed anything.
Lu Zheng clearly sensed the danger. Seeing this, he knew that he had almost exhausted Huai Jun's power.
"That's it for now..."
Lu Zheng spoke slowly, and a thick legal code flew out of his sea of consciousness and landed in his hand.
At that moment, Huai Jun felt a sense of alarm.
As a powerful demon of profound understanding, Huai Jun possesses a remarkably keen perception of life and death.
He didn't even have time to see the book in Lu Zheng's hand before he transformed into a streak of light and flew away.
Huai Jun was absolutely certain that Lu Zheng had brought out a powerful weapon, and without the slightest hesitation, he decided that running away was the best course of action.
Then, everyone saw Huai Jun suddenly fly away, and they were all still a little confused.
Huai Jun flew further and further away, but the sense of life-or-death crisis seemed to grow stronger.
I could almost hear Lu Zheng's voice.
When he came to his senses, he only vaguely heard a few words.
"...His crime deserves death!"
At the same time, Lu Zheng stood on Qinghuai Mountain, the law book in his hand moving without wind, making a loud clanging sound.
An invisible force emanated from the codex, reaching straight to the heavens.
The next instant, Huai Jun, who was fleeing, felt himself being locked onto by some force.
He subconsciously looked up at the sky, and a dazzling bolt of lightning slashed straight down.
Huai Jun hurriedly tried to dodge, but the lightning bolt followed closely behind and struck him instantly.
Huai Jun suddenly felt a surge of thunderous power, unlike anything he had experienced before, coursing through his body. He was subjected to a violent and continuous impact, and his momentum instantly weakened.
His cultivation level and lifespan are declining at an alarming rate, and there's no way to stop it.
"No!"
At this moment, Huai Jun finally felt the fear of death.
He couldn't even muster the strength to escape, falling straight down from the sky, only able to try to suppress the power that was destroying him.
Above, another dazzling bolt of lightning struck down.
The lightning bolt was reflected in Huai Jun's eyes, dazzling and eye-catching.
He simply couldn't understand why there was such terrifying power of thunder.
He could not dodge this thunderbolt; it was even more terrifying than all the previous thunderbolts combined.
"You can call it divine punishment."
Lu Zheng's voice echoed softly in Huai Jun's ears again.
