Way of the Devil - Chapter 506

Chapter 506






Although Golden Leaf, Jade Star, and Divine Intellect were only three simple tiers in Great Yin, they represented the three tiers which were the closest to a Weapon Grandmaster in the Human World .

Divine Lords possessed overbearing might . Their spirits could distort nature and deceive Origin Power . If they had to be compared, the Golden Leaf tier was like an assault rifle user who fired it in a wide arc without any apparent target, while the Jade Star tier was an elite marksman who understood the assault rifle perfectly and had undergone special training .

As for the final Divine Intellect tier, they would still be using assault rifles, but the ammunition fired by them would become rocket-propelled grenades[1 . Think bazooka, but quite a bit weaker . ] on their own… The difference in strength could not be described as small .

'This young man has just recently achieved his breakthrough, and he's already at this level . What kind of monster was he in his previous life?!' Su Ningfei's mind went into overdrive . She could not imagine any Divine Lord to have Lu Sheng's battle style .

She gave it some thought, and then produced a small box with bamboo leaves and green snakes carved onto it . "This is the compensation . That ragtag Treasure of yours was only refined from ordinary materials . It'd be strange indeed if it didn't break after you bring it up against a Divine Weapon . There won't be a next time!"

Lu Sheng smiled, and received the box without saying anything . He immediately sensed the faint Divine Weapon aura coming from within . As expected of the most powerful Divine Lord Su Ningfei, she could easily give away a Golden Leaf Divine Weapon .

After he received his compensation, he glanced at the Golden Dragon Cave's sect master, who was cowering at the side . He turned around and leapt into the air as he left that place . Since Su Ningfei was here herself, he did not have to stay here any longer . It would be better if he returned and used the time he had to research on how he should improve his strength .

The Great Tribulation was almost upon them . He wanted to avoid becoming cannon fodder in the war between Great Yin, the Devil World, and the World of Pain . If he did not want to be powerless in the flow of events, he would have to possess a strength which would allow him to stay independent .

If he was not a Weapon Grandmaster, he would stay a pawn .

His next objective was to accumulate his spirit and wait for the substantial change and subsequent breakthrough to the Weapon Grandmaster tier .

Lu Sheng did a quick search in the vicinity . He offhandedly destroyed a few brigands and bandits who came at him . Then, he quickly sensed that something was off .

Other than the Golden Dragon Cave's sect master's, there were other layers of formations in this location . The key point was that there seemed to be someone who knew him very well . These formations all served the same purpose, and that was transportation .


They were meant to transport him to other locations, and not to defend or attack anyone .

These formations seemed to be based on the location where he almost killed the Golden Dragon Cave's sect master . They were set up with that location as the center .

However, these formations seemed to have been set up in haste . They did not seem to have been activated before they were given up on .





'Interesting… If Su Ningfei hadn't come, I would've been surrounded by these activated formations after I killed those two . Alas, I was too quick, and Su Ningfei suddenly appeared as well . They misjudged our actual combat strength . Hence, they made a decision on the spot to give up on everything . '

After Lu Sheng finished inspecting the formations, he immediately sensed that the coordinator of all this was a person who would flee once the first hit missed .

'This setup is firm . Since he could just give up on all these formation flags and resources, he must be a heartless fellow . He sold out those two and used them as bait in an attempt to set up more formations . '

His curiosity was already piqued . He wanted to know who was trying to go against him behind the scenes .

Unfortunately, while he surveyed the area, he was not able to find any trace of the perpetrator .

His opponent clearly knew his style well . Not a single trace was left in the surroundings . Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .

Feeling helpless, Lu Sheng destroyed the formations' runes and departed for the Prime Devil Sect . No matter who was trying to go against him, the person would surely jump out when an opportunity came his way .

********************

Su Ningfei's matter was settled . When Lu Sheng returned, he heard that Su Yuanyuan was already rescued . He was just putting up a show . The real reason behind this issue was that Divine Lord Aurora Polaris intended to ease the tension between him and Su Ningfei by gifting him the clay tablet .

However, it seemed that it was not too successful .

Su Ningfei brought Su Yuanyuan into secluded cultivation . For a time, there was no great disturbance in Great Yin .

Lu Sheng went to the World of Pain again . Hei Jin had already located a barren town in the vicinity—it was a place called Duming Town .

There was a total of three Devil Art Masters and one Mirror Spirit Master in the town . The rest was other Anomalies, lone ghosts, and the likes .

There would always be unexplainable Anomalies in the World of Pain . They were similar to those in the Human World, undead and indestructible . If they were destroyed, they would respawn after a certain amount of time .

However, they existed on a different level in the World of Pain . If one's sense of pain was not powerful enough, one would not be able to sense their presence .

Lu Sheng only noticed this when he was making up for the several rituals which he'd missed .





After laying out detailed plans of the town's future development for Hei Jin, Lu Sheng patrolled the area for her and killed the monsters and Anomalies that were running rampant . Then, he went to study the Divine Sword clay tablet and started preparing for his third Arrival .

12 years was neither a long nor a short time . If he picked carefully, he might be able to select an Other World with a huge difference in the flow of time . He might even be able to use the difference in time flow to completely understand the Divine Sword clay tablet .

Hence, armed with experience, Lu Sheng started to improve his Arrival Formation again . He melted the runes and modified them again .

At the current moment, merely devouring Divine Weapons did not attract his interest anymore . Devouring his other selves in the Other Worlds through his Arrival was the fastest way to improve his cultivation base .

After studying the Four Seasons Frozen Skies Tome again, Lu Sheng did a major correction of the formation . He managed to narrow down the difference in time flow to a ratio between 1:10 and 1:50 .

As for which world he would randomly Arrive in, there was no telling .

However, Lu Sheng could faintly sense that in the worlds with a faster flow of time, the energy cycle progressed at a faster pace as well . These two entities were directly proportional to each other . Similarly, the limits of energy in these worlds were not high .

Hence, it was not an easy feat to pick the most suitable world while keeping these few factors in mind .

After studying this for a few months, his new Arrival Formation was finally completed .

Lu Sheng began his third Arrival .

. . .

"Buzz…"

Fragments of blue light spots and dark red pieces scattered in the air within the Research Temple . They were like shredded paper .

Lu Sheng stood in the center of the Formation in the middle of the Temple, holding a small box which he had prepared beforehand . These were all special items which he'd prepared to bring over to the next world .

To avoid Arriving in a world with too great a difference in Laws, he even prepared the simplest of gemstones and gold dust, which could even be used by mere mortals . He prepared this on the off chance that he Arrived in a special world where it would come in handy . At the very least, he would not have to start over in a world with absolutely nothing .

"East 12 . 33, West 13 . 16, North 20 . 00, South 9 . 47…





"After making minute adjustments, insert Divine Vein power . "

Lu Sheng raised the back of his hand, and the Divine Vein glowed with faint blue light on its own . This Divine Vein was not overly weakened even in Great Yin, and maintained its original formidable lethality . It was apparent that its energy level was high .

Lu Sheng had discovered to his surprise during an experiment that if he added this Divine Vein as a special material into his Arrival Formation, it had the effect of stabilizing the entire formation's structure .

Hence, the Mystic Water Divine Vein had become a crucial part of his Arrival Formation's activation . It was precisely because of it that he was able to narrow down the range of possible worlds that he might Arrive in to a controllable degree .

Lu Sheng shook the air with his voice as he squeezed out every word, adjusting the data orally with runic language . The formation under the Research Temple glowed red; the radiance was like a burning flame as it danced constantly . There seemed to be faint images of monsters brandishing their claws and baring their fangs within it .

"You have a death wish?" Lu Sheng's spirit lashed out . A dark red winged-serpent's pattern glowed between his brows .

"Boom!"

With a muffled sound, the illusory images of the monsters in the Research Temple vanished as they wailed and melted into the radiance .

'That was a space-time turbellarian worm… According to the records in the Four Seasons Frozen Skies Tome, this phenomenon will only occur when the difference in the time flow reached a certain threshold . '

Lu Sheng looked at the glowing formation under his feet .

'According to the records, there are some worm-like matriarchal organisms living within the space-time continuum . They subsist on the time and longevity of the beings that shuttle through the space-time continuum . The space-time turbellarian worm is such an organism . I didn't expect to actually bump into one…'

Lu Sheng's spirit surged, and his formless Spiritual Power attempted to search for the remains of the space-time turbellarian worm . However, all the remains had already been washed away by the surging formation energy, and were nowhere to be seen now .

"What a shame… I can only do it next time . " Amid his lamentation, the Arrival Formation suddenly shone brightly with red radiance . The red and blue snowflakes and paper shreds shone with white radiance .

"Pcchht!"

A gray crack instantly opened up in the air above the Formation, and Lu Sheng was entirely enveloped by a white glow . He then shot into the opening, and vanished in the blink of an eye .

The gray crack had only stayed open for an instant . After Lu Sheng entered it, it closed up naturally . The entire process lasted no more than half a second .

Everything went smoothly under the Arrival Formation's precise calculations and arrangements . The opening which only lasted an instant and the limit of size to an extremely small range reduced the pressure on Lu Sheng and the load on the Formation to a very significant degree . This way, the safety and stability could be guaranteed .

******************

The rays of the setting sun fell on an old, abandoned, and deadly quiet town .

The streets, stables, taverns, and inns were deserted . Dust and mist lingered in the air .

"Ah Sang, do you remember this place?" An unfamiliar voice came .

Luo Sang looked at everything before him with a stunned expression . He subconsciously replied, "This is… Wind Falcon Town… My hometown…"

"Yes… It's my hometown as well . " The voice came from his right . Luo Sang immediately turned to look toward its source .

He saw a big, tall, burly man . He was full of whiskers, and seemed to have witnessed many vicissitudes of life . The man was looking forward calmly . However, anyone could tell that the calmness was only on the surface .

The man had a crew cut, which made him look well-trained and neat . He wore a black short-sleeved shirt that revealed his chest, which was comprised of well-defined muscles and full of scars . His bronze skin tone shone with a glossy luster under the glint of the setting sun .

"Ah Sang, you must carefully remember everything about this place . " The man's voice was deep . It brought with it a hatred that was carved in bones and the heart .

"Remember this place .

"Remember this place which was once ours, but had also destroyed us completely .

"I'll remember it . " Luo Sang did not feel his own lips move, but his voice still escaped him .

"Let's go . We'll put an end to this . " The man strode out from his side toward the deadly still town .

"Hew!"

Suddenly, a shrill cry echoed .
