Chapter 218: Extreme Counter-Killing
It turns out he didn't.
When a sinister laugh came from behind him, Lu Cheng quickly understood that all this in front of him was not a dream.
The woman who died under his sword had gradually restored his true appearance with the analysis of his limbs, and after seeing a broken tree root on the ground, Lu Cheng turned around with applause.
"There are two hits." He gave a thumbs up, a compliment from the bottom of his heart.
"I can't see that you are not old, and the ruthlessness of your methods is shocking." The tree ghost sneered and rejected his praise, "I thought that a little hairy man of your age should know what it means to be merciful and cherished, but it seems that this fine character is not reflected in you at all. ”
"Ah, no, no, no, if I don't pity Xiangyu, do you think you can still stand here alive and talk to me?" Lu Cheng said that he could do it, but his heart had begun to gradually lose his heart.
Because of the trick used by the tree ghost to escape just now, he couldn't see through it.
Maybe it's the golden cicada coming out of her shell, maybe it's the forbidden ability, or maybe it's the chance that she's got some life-saving immortal incarnation artifact. There are many possibilities, but the only thing that is certain is that Lu Cheng doesn't know what tricks she used.
On the battlefield, it is one of the most difficult situations to not know the depth of the enemy. Because you don't know her path, it means that you can't find even the most basic ways to deal with it. Assuming that every physical attack on her can be converted into a tree-type stand-in by her in some unknown way, then it can be said that from the very beginning, the game against Lu Cheng has an undefeated margin!
"The work under his hands is not very good, but his mouth is very sharp." The other party gave a very unceremonious evaluation, "If you don't leave and want to escape, it's not so easy." ”
"Haha, what a big breath!" Lu Cheng laughed, and when he raised his hand, a line of cold light had already crossed the other party's white neck.
Destroying the evil and the three martial arts, one sword is silent.
As in the conjecture, the head that rolled to the ground soon turned into a broken branch again, and as for the body of the tree ghost standing in place, it was restored to its original appearance like a dead thing, a dead wood with no signs of life.
"It's kind of interesting." He chuckled faintly in his heart.
The purpose of this move was purely to test whether this stand-in's ability to take damage on his behalf was a one-time life-saving skill, or if, like his black dragon suit, there was a cooldown mechanism for the skill, and he couldn't activate it a second time in a short period of time. Now it seems that this fluke is obviously overwhelmed.
"Listening to your initial tone, I really thought you had the ability to kill me, but you just kept your hand," the dark voice of the tree ghost came from behind him again, and there was inevitably a hint of mockery and disdain in his tone, "Now it seems that I really overestimate you." ”
"You're good." Lu Cheng glanced at her and frowned slightly, "The opponent who can give me a headache is one of the only few people in such a long time." ”
"yes, I thought it was the first one." Po sneered.
"I'm honestly curious how you managed to achieve this level of near-physical attack immunity. Spells, abilities, artifacts, I thought of many possibilities, but without exception, none of them were possible. ”
"Oh? Now that I'm aware of my embarrassing situation, are you going to talk to me and delay time? Po smiled.
Lu Cheng ignored her interruption and continued to speak to himself.
"I wonder if there really is such a terrifying ability in this world that allows the beneficiary to escape from deadly attacks again and again, and turn into an avatar of the Source Power in place of taking damage. The answer is no, because if such a theoretical immortality really exists, this ability will not be unknown in the vast history. I don't know anything about you demons, but I know that this kind of existence that has upset the balance will not happen anyway. If you really mastered this kind of terrifying power, you wouldn't have been sealed in a sarcophagus by a ghost path thirty years ago. ”
"That's right, keep talking." The dryad played with his long hair hanging down his temples, and the smile on his face was quiet and relaxed.
"If I'm not mistaken, no matter how many times I attack you in front of me, the end result is bound to be the same, that is, the trees are damaged, and you are unharmed. Tell me if it's true? Lu Cheng looked at her, as if he had asked for something.
"Is there a way or not, if I am reluctant to kill you, then I have to tell the secret of saving my life? You're naïve, little ghost. She laughed wildly, looking a little impatient.
"No need to guess, it must be so." Lu Cheng smiled, asked and answered himself, but he was not angry. This begs the question, where is your being? Or rather, what should I do to hurt your being? In fact, I have been misled by you for so long, and since I have been chasing all the way, with my control of the demon clan's aura, it is impossible for you to appear behind me to greet me. The only possibility is that the one standing in front of me is not the real body of the tree ghost at all, you are just a projection, so there is no life, no demonic energy. He pointed to the woman who was still playing with the ends of her hair, "That's why you didn't rush to do anything with me after you met, but let me go." It's just an afterimage, what can it do to attack me? All you are guarding is the land behind me, stopping me from moving forward, so that I will not discover the secrets of the Demon Race. ”
"You're smart." The dryad smiled coldly, lowered his hand, and began to applaud softly. "But anyway, this is my last patience, if you don't leave now, you don't plan to get out."
"Yes, since you've already guessed this, before you die, you should also let me see where your demon clan headquarters are, right?" Lu Cheng smiled, turned around without looking back, and strode towards the Central City in front of him.
The face of the person behind him did not change, but he gently said the four words that made him feel like he had been struck by lightning.
"You guessed wrong."
In a moment of confusion, a jagged root popped out from behind the woman's feet and penetrated the back of Lu Cheng's chest.
There was no respite, as if to defeat the enemy with one move, and after this blow penetrated, countless branches and tentacles were entangled like spider webs.
Lu Cheng, who was tightly locked in the joints, was in a trance, he just couldn't figure out why he guessed wrong.
Could it be that the woman who appeared in front of him was a real body from beginning to end, and the reason why he was immune to the first two damages was only because there was some kind of artifact that had a fixed number of uses? Or, is it the main body after two times, and the attack that misses the vital point can be ignored directly?
Thirty years ago, the demon king who was the party to the disaster, after Sun Yuandao died, no one understood how to subdue him.
Lu Cheng thought that even the ghost Dao real person back then only used the gossip lock dragon array to seal her in the coffin, and the experience of really killing her was probably not shared by anyone.
"I gave you a chance."
It was as if a plant was growing, and a section of root grew out of the ground, and it was transformed into the beautiful woman from before. She shook her head, her expression full of pity.
"Really?" Lu Cheng smiled bitterly, and his face had turned pale from the great loss of vitality. The roots that coiled on his body were not only incredibly strong, but even more terrifying were the countless seeds containing parasitic power that crept into his body as the branches and leaves clinged to him. As a part of a complete consciousness, the power drawn from each part of these seeds will be turned into nutrients and continuously delivered into the body of the tree ghost, and it is interesting that as a generation of demon emperors, the power in his own body should be the best nourishment for Po Sa.
"Looks like it's going to be easy for you to kill me now." He swallowed hard and uttered the words.
"Yes, as you can see."
"So can you tell me before you die, how exactly did you manage to avoid physical damage?" Lu Cheng smiled reluctantly, at the last moment of his life, he actually said such words.
"I'm sorry, no." The dryad smiled, "The dead don't need to know much, you're lucky, because at least you took a look at the rising sun before you died." "Glancing at the whiteness of the fish belly on the eastern horizon, this woman's face really showed a trace of frost after the killing intent bloomed." Farewell. ”
The sharp blades of the tree branches arranged in a formation around shot towards Lu Cheng, which was firmly locked by the roots of the trees extending from the ground, and at this moment, it was not only the physical piercing power formed by the tree piercing that was triggered, but also the magic of Po Sao himself, and the ghostly light of the demon once reshaped the glory of the night before the early sun!
"A lot of people have tried to take my life, but they ignore that they are not qualified."
Under the reflection of the brilliance of these words, the blue-faced and white-toothed Lu Cheng suddenly broke off the slag that turned into powder around his body. Together with the seeds in the parasitic body, all the power seemed to germinate, and once again it bounced back to these rampant plants in the form of withering. And the pale-faced woman regressed again and again—she was attacked with all her own strength.
The skill of the Black Dragon Scale, the cooldown time is a shield for one day, it is immune to all damage within three seconds, and there is a certain probability to fully reflect the source of damage!
Tree to tree, man to person.
It's a pity, if the attack at that moment just now was all from the tree ghosts, instead of the assistance of these trees, he was sure that he could kill this so-called immortal woman in an instant by relying on damage rebound alone!
The good fortune of a companion failed to disappoint Lu Cheng this time. The damage rebound effect that happens to be triggered is aimed at the "source of damage" that is absolutely locked, and no matter how many avatars she has, as long as the attack is sent by her body, there is no possibility of evasion.
"Why?!" Looking at the approaching man, the unbelievable tree ghost on the side asked the same question as Lu Cheng before.
"Dead people don't need to know too much." Lu Cheng said this coldly, showing the black dragon in his hand.
