After the Taoist nun cried out in pain, she frowned and started to chant. Golden light began to shine around her body. The gray-white robe on her body began to bulge without any wind and began to support the vines that wrapped around her body.
However, the moment the black vines sensed her resistance, their surface lit up as if an electric current had passed through it. More black vines pounced on her from all directions, completely wrapping her up.
At the same time, the two black puppets quickly rushed over from the vines.
Those vines seemed to attack by sensing the breath of living creatures. They didn't stop the two puppets at all.
They rushed to the back of the Taoist nun. One on the left and one on the right, each of them held a weapon. They pushed through the gaps of the vines and suddenly stabbed into the Taoist nun.
The golden light outside the Taoist nun's body didn't have time to break through the binding of the vines. It was attacked by the puppets again. With a soft "bang", it shattered into countless golden light spots and dissipated.
The two puppets' weapons went straight in. When they were about to pierce through the Taoist nun's body, two rays of light, one golden and one red, shot out at the same time, revealing the true shape of the Dragon Horn Awl and the Pure Yang Sword Embryo.
The two puppets sensed that something was wrong. When they wanted to withdraw their weapons, it was already too late.
"Bang", "Bang", two muffled sounds came. The two puppets' chests were pierced through at the same time. After the Dragon Horn Awl and the Pure Yang Sword Embryo pierced through their chests, they didn't stop at all. They immediately slashed toward the vines on the ground.
Rays of light bloomed on the ground one after another. A large number of vines were cut off by the rays of light. They had no choice but to tremble and retreat in one direction. Even the vines that wrapped around the Taoist nun were no exception.
When all the vines were gone, the figure of the Taoist nun reappeared. The robe outside her body was densely covered with black runes. There was a strange wave coming from it.
When Shen Luo saw this, he knew that his action was a little unnecessary. Even if he didn't care, the Taoist nun could break free by herself.
When the female Taoist priest saw Shen Luo, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes. The two of them looked at each other awkwardly for a moment. In the end, it was Shen Luo who raised his hand and cupped his fist. Then, he turned around and left.
"Shen Daoyou, wait." At this moment, the female Taoist priest's voice came from behind him.
Shen Luo turned his head to look, a puzzled expression on his face.
"I'm Huang Liang from the Tai Ying Temple. Thank you, Shen Daoyou, for your help." The female Taoist bowed and said.
"You don't have to do this. Even if I don't do anything, you can still escape." Shen Luo waved his hand and continued on his way.
When Huang Ting heard this, she did not say anything else and followed in his direction.
The two of them tacitly agreed to be companions and rushed into the depths of the forest.
…
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
At night, Shen Luo found an open area in the forest and lit a bonfire. Huang Liang sat across from him.
Although the two of them had been traveling together for a few days, they spent most of their time on the road and rarely talked to each other.
Only when they were blocked by Demonic Beasts, they would occasionally help each other. Although there was not much tacit understanding between them, it had greatly improved their speed.
At this moment, Shen Luo was sitting cross-legged in meditation, silently nurturing the pure Yang sword embryo in his body.
After such a long period of cultivation, the pure Yang sword embryo had grown a lot. Shen Luo originally thought that the Red Lotus Hellfire contained in it would not change, but recently, he found that the Hellfire contained in the sword had quietly grown a lot.
Huang Liang looked at Shen Luo across the bonfire. After spending a few days together, she was somewhat curious about Shen Luo.
Just as she was in a daze, Shen Luo suddenly opened his eyes. Seeing this, Huang Liang quickly looked away, her cheeks blushing with embarrassment.
"Something is coming …" Shen Luo did not notice her strangeness at all and said.
After saying that, he stood up and looked around with rapt attention.
It was dark all around, and only the faint sound of wind and insects could be heard. It was very quiet.
However, in this mountain forest where demonic beasts ran rampant, this kind of tranquility was not a normal thing in itself.
Huang Liang was also alert at this moment. She stood still and released her Divine Sense to explore the surroundings.
But after probing for a while, her Divine Sense didn't find anything.
"Shen Daoyou, are you …" Before Huang Liang could finish her words, Shen Luo suddenly made a gesture to silence her.
Upon hearing that, Huang Liang frowned and shut his mouth.
"Be careful, retreat!" At this moment, Shen Luo suddenly exclaimed.
At the same time, both of them shrank back and retreated rapidly.
In the middle of the bonfire, a pair of black eyes suddenly appeared. The flames in the eyes also split into two fire pythons and pounced on the two of them.
Seeing this, Shen Luo performed a one-handed incantation gesture and waved his hand forward. The water vapor in the void quickly condensed into a blue water dragon and collided head-on with the fire python. Immediately, a sizzling sound was heard, and a large cloud of white water vapor rose from the surroundings.
Huang Liang, on the other hand, pushed one hand in front of him. A green jade bracelet on his wrist glowed brightly and condensed into a round shield in front of him, blocking the oncoming fire python.
As soon as they stopped the fire python, the ground beneath them began to shake violently again. Thick black vines broke out of the ground and frantically wrapped around Shen Luo and Huang Liang.
Caught off guard, Shen Luo and Huang Liang were entangled by the black vines. Only then did Shen Luo realize that the vines were covered with sharp thorns, and when they pierced his skin, he felt a strong burning sensation.
He frowned slightly and waved his hand. The pure Yang sword embryo flew out and bloomed a dense sword beam around him, cutting all the vines in an instant.
He didn't even have time to catch his breath. The two fire pythons that had been repelled just now merged into one, and transformed into a three-feet-tall flame giant. It had a sharp horn on its head, and was brandishing a flaming sword in its hand. Then, it chopped down towards Shi Mu's head.
The moment the flaming giant revealed its human form, the aura it had been hiding was finally released. Surprisingly, it was at the early stage of Out of Aperture realm.
Shen Luo dared not to be careless. He waved his hand again, and a golden light flashed in his sleeve. The Dragon Horn Awl shone brightly with a dragon's roar as it flew out of it and collided with the flaming sword.
"Boom!" a loud sound rang out!
The flaming sword was knocked away by the Dragon Horn Awl, scattering a large number of flames. The golden light on the Dragon Horn Awl was also scattered.
Shen Luo waved his hand again. The pure Yang sword embryo drew an arc in the air and flew back from a distance, stabbing toward the back of the flaming giant's head.
The flaming giant seemed to be unaware of this. After clenching the flaming sword in its hand, its dark eyes suddenly lit up with a golden light. The flame on the sword suddenly condensed and became extremely hot. The outer flame became like a saw and slashed toward Shen Luo again.
Seeing this, Shen Luo was not afraid. Instead, he was happy. He took a step forward to meet the flaming giant head-on, deliberately attracting its attention.
He raised his hand and held the Dragon Horn Awl. Instead of using it to attack from a distance, he directly raised it above his head to block the attack.
The flaming giant's sword slashed down heavily, and a scorching aura suddenly pressed down on his face.
When the flaming sword was about to hit the Dragon Horn Awl, the pure Yang sword embryo had already turned around and pierced into the back of the flaming giant's head.
