“Could it be that he tried to ambush me in order to steal my DemonExtermination Token and claim the Demon-Extermination Points?”
Quickly, Lu Yun dismissed the idea.
Master Changkong had once warned that Demon-Extermination Points could be exchanged privately, but they must follow the principle of fairness and voluntariness, otherwise, no mercy would be shown.
This martial artist had no need to violate the warning of a Golden Core Realm True Master for the sake of Demon-Extermination Points.
Moreover, the Demon-Extermination Token was linked to the runes within one’s body. If two different tokens attempted to exchange DemonExtermination Points, it was possible that the exchange would be discovered.
The opponent would not be so foolish.
“Then, why did he try to kill me?” As he touched the Demon-Extermination Token in his hand, Lu Yun pondered.
Just then, a mountain not far away collapsed with a deafening roar, revealing a huge deep hole, several yards in diameter and apparently bottomless.
“Is this a dwelling?”
Lu Yun’s eyes sparkled brightly, his heart beating faster.
Within sects, those who were powerful and preferred their privacy for cultivation would often establish such dwellings and practice intensively in seclusion.
Those who could do so were at least of the Rune Seed Realm.
Such a person’s secluded dwelling would undoubtedly be filled with pills and secret cultivation manuals, a serious temptation for any martial artist.
Upon discovering Lu Yun, the opponent’s ambush attempt made sense.
But unfortunately, since his target was Lu Yun, not only did the ambush fail, but it also led to his own undoing.
“I cannot keep this Demon-Extermination Token.”
Lu Yun casually threw the token aside, then made his way towards the nearby dwelling.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…
Suddenly, a massive array shone brightly, enveloping Lu Yun in its radiance.
At the same time, a beast formed from powerful energy appeared. Its silver light was dazzling, and, in the end, it transformed into a pitch-black creature. The creature was not large in size, but it was covered in scales that gleamed with a metallic luster. It had a ferocious mouth, a single horn on its head, and a body that resembled a hound, but with three heads and wings on its flanks. This was a Cerberus from hell. Even though it was shaped from the Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Qi convergence in the array, it was incredibly powerful.
“Grrrr…”
Upon seeing Lu Yun trespass into the dwelling, Cerberus rushed over. Its breath was wild and its power horrifying.
Lu Yun stared at the Cerberus but did not draw his Dragon Scale Saber.
His saber technique was too strong. If he wasn’t careful, the dwelling could be destroyed, the mountain could collapse, and he would end up worse off than before.
A golden halo soared into the sky, shimmering with a crimson luster. This was the Hundred-refined Vajra Ring, capable of both offensive and defensive capabilities.
Boom!!
He threw it, and suddenly a dazzling golden light surged forward, violently hitting one of the Cerberus’ heads.
“Grrrr…”
The Cerberus howled in pain. The scales on its central head were shattered, creating a large bump.
Enraged, it became even more terrifying. Its body was gleaming, and it resisted the Hundred-refined Vajra Ring, rushing to Lu Yun for a melee fight.
The creature’s body was formed by the convergence of Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Qi within the array. As long as the array was not broken, and as long as the Spiritual Qi did not exhaust, it was invincible.
When it moved, silver lights fell like exploding stars, and its powerful claws tore easily through the air. It was terrifying and fiercely aggressive.
Lu Yun was not afraid. He stepped forward, charged without backing down, and fiercely collided with the vicious Cerberus. His body was filled with immeasurable golden light. He dodged the creature’s claws and then gave a punch on its bulging spot on the skull. A loud hum reverberated in the air. The hell’s hound had been punched into stumbling. It crashed against the mountainside, howling in pain.
Lu Yun again grabbed the Hundred-refined Vajra Ring and advanced, climbing onto the beast’s body and vigorously hitting its head.
Each time it was hit, the Cerberus howled, shaking wildly, trying to throw Lu
Yun off its body.
But all its efforts were in vain. The more it struggled, the more severe attacks it sustained.
In the end, as Lu Yun hammered away relentlessly, one of the Cerberus’ heads exploded, leaving it with two, becoming a ‘Two-Headed Cerberus’ in the literal sense.
At the same time, Lu Yun noticed that as one head was destroyed, the beast’s aura weakened.
“Ah, it worked.”
Lu Yun’s spirits were lifted, and he fought with renewed vigor.
He was at a loss with the array. If he could forcibly blow up the Cerberus, the array might break automatically.
So, Lu Yun either hit it hard with the Hundred-refined Vajra Ring or wildly battered it with his hands.
Eventually, Lu Yun blew up all three heads of the Cerberus. The creature s spine was also broken, and it dispersed into lines of energy, completely vanishing.
With the disappearance of the Cerberus, the array also disbanded. At the same time, Lu Yun felt an incredibly dense layer of Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Qi within the dwelling.
With the array disarmed, Lu Yun entered it effortlessly.
The dwelling’s interior was a treasure trove, with large spaces and numerous chambers.
Each chamber was neatly organized, bearing traces of occupation.
From this, it was evident that the owner of the dwelling hadn’t been away for long, and it was even possible that they were locked in battle with the Demon Suppression Army outside.
Lu Yun walked straight to a stone chamber with a barrier in place. He had barely taken a few steps inside when a flashing barrier appeared, pulsing with energy.
