Chapter 539 Fighting a Profound Realm Expert

"Roar……"

A low, mournful cry echoed throughout the space.

Lu Zheng and his group immediately realized that they had been detected by this dragon vein.

Lu Zheng looked into the black dragon's half-closed eyes and read a lot of complex emotions in them.

Not far from the dragon vein, a cloud of black mist surged.

A figure completely shrouded in black robes appeared.

The man in black robes seemed to sense something, and his gaze fell on the direction the dragon vein was looking. Then, he swept his sleeve, and a fierce black gale suddenly appeared, sweeping directly towards the location where Lu Zheng and the others were.

The gale arrived in the blink of an eye, and Lu Zheng and the others quickly moved aside, revealing their figures.

"who!"

Upon seeing that there were actually people, the man in black robes couldn't help but question them in a barbarian language.

Because the area was filled with the energy of the earth's veins, and both sides were in a state of concealment, neither of them noticed the other for the time being.

If the dragon vein hadn't suddenly roared, neither side would have realized it so quickly.

"Wow, there really is a master here!"

Yun Xiao raised an eyebrow, not surprised to see someone guarding the dragon vein.

He would find it strange if there was no one looking after this place!

Moreover, judging from this person's attire, dressed in a black robe, not even revealing his facial features, he is so secretive that he doesn't seem like a member of the Shu Kingdom's government at all.

"Profound understanding..."

Yun Xiao turned to look at Lu Zheng, giving him a "you do it, then do it" look.

As he spoke, Yun Xiao raised his hand and threw out several array plates, attempting to prevent the black-robed man from transmitting messages to his accomplices.

As for whether it will be effective, Yun Xiao cannot guarantee it.

After all, the situation in this dragon vein area is too complex, and a poor-quality formation may not be effective.

On the other side, Lu Zheng and Qing Yi no longer bothered to conceal themselves and charged directly at the man in black robes with lightning speed.

In order to quickly suppress the man in black robes and avoid alerting others, Lu Zheng and Qing Yi, the most powerful of the four, took action together.

As a Transcendent Realm expert, Qingyi reacted extremely quickly, arriving in front of the black-robed man in the blink of an eye.

With a flick of her small fist, a blazing light flashed, like a small sun, and shot straight at the man in black robes.

The man in black robes was startled, not expecting that such a small child would have the same level of cultivation as him, and the scorching yang energy made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

With a thought, the man in black robes was enveloped in thick black mist, and the surrounding dragon energy transformed into black dragons that circled around him, blocking Qingyi's attack.

Lu Zheng was a beat slower. Although he had only recently entered the fifth realm, he cultivated righteous energy and possessed many treasures. He believed that he still had the strength to fight against a Transcendent Realm expert.

One by one, artifacts appeared, carrying a powerful and righteous aura, and with an overwhelming force, they suppressed the man in black robes.

The man in black robes only felt his movements slow down slightly, but he quickly resisted the power of righteous energy.

He was filled with doubt and surprise, never expecting that someone at the mere fifth realm would possess such extraordinary abilities.

Yun Xiao stood at a distance, looking around, and muttered, "The opponent can use the dragon energy of this place and take advantage of the terrain, which is disadvantageous to us!"

Yun Xiao couldn't help but shout, "This is not our territory. Let's finish this quickly so that other barbarians don't come to our aid."

Yun Xiao paused, then said, "Whether it will work or not, if not, I have a backup plan..."

Lu Zheng's expression hardened, and he said, "Give me some time."

Lu Zheng looked at Qingyi not far away.

Qingyi understood, her face turned serious, and her entire body instantly burst into flames, a powerful aura filling the surrounding space. Even the surrounding black dragon energy had to retreat.

Unfavorable terrain? Then temporarily change the terrain.

As a drought demon, Qingyi possesses boundless yang heat within her body, enough to alter the surrounding environment.

Although this place is full of earth vein dragon energy, the dragon vein is suppressed, and this overflowing dragon energy is out of control. Under this heat, it has to retreat a bit.

Qingyi moved with her thoughts, like a fiery meteor crashing into the man in black robes.

At the same time, Lu Zheng unfolded the Imperial History Bamboo Slips, and several poems and essays released their power, instantly empowering him.

A tall, illusory figure enveloped him, and the blessing from the battle poem made Lu Zheng's aura fierce and full of fighting spirit.

With a staff in one hand and a hammer in the other, surrounded by other artifacts, Lu Zheng attacked the man in black robes with an aura of righteous indignation.

The three were locked in combat in the blink of an eye, their dazzling light making it difficult to discern their figures and movements.

Yun Xiao squinted as he observed the three fighting, clicking his tongue in amazement, "It's really worth learning these skills. If it were any other scholar, using so many literary artifacts and having so much poetry to enhance them, their body and soul would probably collapse. How could they possibly have such strong combat power..."

Yun Xiao had known for some time that Lu Zheng had been cultivating his physique, but after not seeing him for a year, he discovered that Lu Zheng's level of physical training and martial arts practice was more exaggerated than he had imagined.

Using so many literary artifacts at once, and even employing war poems to summon the spirits of military generals, this method is quite remarkable.

Yun Xiao thought that if he had taken Lu Zheng to have a deity possess him back then, it might have had a very good effect.

Seeing Yun Xiao watching the show, Qing Wan couldn't help but say, "Aren't we going to do anything?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Xiao snapped out of his reverie and said, "We won't participate in such a battle; it would only get in our way. Let's wait and see; it's not my turn to make a move yet."

Yun Xiao was full of confidence; it was just a Transcendent Realm cultivator.

Even if a few more come, he can still lead Lu Zheng and the others to safety.

Yun Xiao remained calm, observing the battle while keeping a watchful eye on any approaching figures, and also glancing at the dragon vein that had transformed into a black dragon.

Near the dragon vein, a place was filled with light and heat, illuminating the dark space.

The man in black robes was caught in a pincer attack by Lu Zheng and Qing Yi, and he was both shocked and furious.

A little girl-like being actually possessed the strength of the Profound Realm.

A young man at the fifth realm was actually able to fight him without being at a disadvantage.

Moreover, the aura emanating from these two individuals was extremely effective in suppressing his power.

He even used his own Gu worms just now.

As a result, the moment the Gu worms showed their heads, they were burned to ashes by the incredibly hot Yang energy, let alone allowed the Gu worms to invade Lu Zheng and his companion's bodies.

Seeing this, the man in black robes waved his sleeves.

Black energy surged out like a tide, then suddenly bombarded the dragon vein not far away.

The dragon vein trembled slightly, and more dragon energy surged from its body, spreading outwards.

Several chains of spiritual energy appeared out of thin air, passing through the dense dragon energy, and rolled straight towards Lu Zheng and Qing Yi, attempting to bind the two of them as if binding a dragon vein.

The spiritual energy chains moved extremely fast, binding Lu Zheng in an instant.

A terrifying binding force was released from the chains, pressing down on Lu Zheng from all directions, as if a mountain were pressing down on him.

Upon seeing this, Lu Zheng's gaze sharpened, and with a thought, images of the sun, moon, mountains, and rivers appeared.

The imagery of the sun, moon, mountains, and rivers, imbued with the power of heaven and earth, relentlessly bombarded the chains of spiritual energy.

In the blink of an eye, the spiritual energy chains shattered into mist and could no longer be condensed into a solid shape.
