Chapter 355: The Transformation of the Ancient Demon

Wang Lu felt as if he had fallen into a bottomless black hole. Every muscle in his body was groaning in pain, and the constant loss of physical strength made him feel panic.

He could clearly feel that the spiritual power in his body was dissipating rapidly like a punctured balloon. However, despite facing such a difficult situation, a voice in his heart kept shouting: Never give up!

So, Wang Lu gritted his teeth tightly, veins on his forehead bulged, and beads of sweat slid down his cheeks. He used all his strength to raise the spiritual sword in his hand high, and then swung it violently.

In an instant, a dazzling sword light cut through the sky, rushing straight towards the enemy with a devastating momentum. This is the third sword of the Seven Swords of Spiritual Illusion - Thunderous!

With this sword, Wang Lu injected all his spiritual power into the spiritual sword, and the sword body flashed with dazzling lightning. He shouted and slashed at the six ancient demons. This sword contained endless power, as if it was going to split the whole world in half.

At that moment, the six ancient demons keenly sensed the fatal threat brought by this sharp sword. In an instant, its six terrifying heads burst into deafening roars at the same time, as if to tear the whole world apart.

At the same time, its six strong and powerful arms waved rapidly at an astonishing speed, like a violent storm, gathering all kinds of powerful weapons in its hands in front of it. In the blink of an eye, these weapons intertwined and overlapped with each other, and actually formed a solid defense barrier that was as solid as a rock and unbreakable.

Accompanied by a thunderous roar, "Boom!" The long sword in Wang Lu's hand, wrapped in an overwhelming momentum, slammed fiercely into the defense carefully constructed by the six ancient demons.

When the two collided, an incomparable powerful shock wave burst out, sweeping around like a surging tsunami. Under the impact of this extremely terrifying force, the surrounding space was instantly overwhelmed, began to tremble violently and collapsed, and finally formed a bottomless, huge black hole that seemed to be able to swallow everything.

And Wang Lu, who was in it, was the first to bear the brunt, and was directly hit by this violent and unmatched impact force. His body drew an arc in the air like a kite with a broken string, and then fell heavily to the ground in the distance. After landing, Wang Lu's face was as pale as paper, and a trace of bright red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. Obviously, he had suffered a serious injury.

The six-headed ancient demon was not doing well at the moment. After Wang Lu swung the sword, its huge body retreated uncontrollably. Every step made the earth tremble and raised a cloud of dust.

Looking at the six thick arms of the ancient demon, they were trembling slightly at this moment, as if they had endured a huge impact. The black scales on its body, which were originally indestructible, also had many fine cracks at this moment. These cracks spread like spider webs, which looked shocking.

In the eyes of the ancient demon, there was a look of surprise and anger. Obviously, it never thought that this seemingly small and fragile human in front of it could actually perform such a powerful attack and cause such serious injuries to itself. This unexpected situation made the anger in the heart of the ancient demon burn fiercely, and it secretly vowed to completely wipe out this human who dared to challenge its majesty!

"Human, you have successfully angered me!" The six ancient demons roared, and its body began to swell, and its breath became more violent. It decided not to hold back and to completely eliminate Wang Lu.

Wang Lu struggled to prop himself up from the ground, and every movement seemed to have exhausted all his strength. His face was as pale as a bloodless piece of rice paper, which looked very distressing. The hideous wounds on his body were constantly oozing blood, dyeing his originally neat clothes into a shocking dark red.

Despite the serious injuries, Wang Lu did not give in at all. He knew that this was a critical moment of life and death, but his deep eyes still flashed with unwavering light and stubbornness of never giving up.

He stared at the huge and terrifying six-headed ancient demon in front of him, and secretly said in his heart: "Hmph, even if I die here today, I will make you, a hateful guy, bury me with me!"

Just when the six-headed ancient demon was about to launch the final attack, Wang Lu suddenly felt a familiar breath. He moved his heart and quickly circulated his spiritual power and opened his spiritual consciousness. He found that in the space crack not far away, there was a mysterious power fluctuation hidden.

Wang Lu's heart seemed to be ignited by a weak but tenacious flame, and a glimmer of hope surged. Although that glimmer of hope was small, it was like a bright light that illuminated the road ahead in this world of darkness and despair.

He knew that this opportunity might be the last straw he could grasp. If he missed this opportunity, he might never be able to turn things around. So, he gritted his teeth without hesitation, completely ignoring the hideous and bloody injuries on his body, and forcibly mobilized the little spiritual power left in his body.

Instantly, a dazzling light bloomed from under his feet, and then he shot out like an arrow. At this moment, time seemed to freeze, and everything around him seemed to become blurred, only his figure was clearly visible.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Lu had rushed to the mysterious and dangerous space crack at an unimaginable speed!

Seeing this, the six-headed ancient demon immediately understood Wang Lu's intention. It roared angrily and chased after Wang Lu. It must not let Wang Lu escape, otherwise, it would become a shame for the demon clan

Wang Lu tried his best and finally came to the space crack. He dived in without hesitation. The six-headed ancient demon followed closely and rushed into the space crack.

However, just after they stepped into the seemingly ordinary space crack, a strong suction instantly drew them in. The scene in front of them suddenly changed, and they were shocked to find that they were actually in a completely unfamiliar world.

This world seemed to be a chaotic void, with no clear distinction between up and down, left and right, and no traditional concept of time and space. A mysterious and strong power permeated the surroundings, covering the entire area like a thick fog. This power was invisible and intangible, but one could truly feel the heavy pressure it brought, which made people almost breathless.

Being in this chaotic state, everyone could not help but feel a strong sense of uneasiness and fear. It felt like being thrown into an endless dark abyss, with no support points or direction to rely on. Every step was full of unknown dangers, and no one knew what would happen next.

Wang Lu and the six huge and hideous ancient demons were in this vast and chaotic space. The surroundings were filled with thick fog like ink, and everything in sight was blurry, and there was no way to distinguish the east, south, west and north.

They stumbled and groped forward in this chaos like headless flies, trying to find a way to leave this place. However, no matter how hard they tried to explore, even if they stepped on every inch of land and did not let go of every possible clue, the final result was still disappointment and frustration.

Time passed by, and the flame of hope gradually extinguished with the passage of time. Just when they were shrouded in despair and almost gave up struggling, suddenly, a strong and heart-pounding energy wave surged from the depths of the chaotic space.

This force was as majestic as a mountain and sea, and its might was beyond imagination! Wang Lu felt as if he had instantly become a lone boat in the wind and waves, and he might be completely swallowed up at any time; and the six originally fierce ancient demons were also trembling at this time, with deep fear in their eyes, as if they had encountered a natural enemy.

"What kind of power is this!" Wang Lu widened his eyes, his heart filled with endless doubts and fear. His usually calm heart was actually in turmoil at this moment, because this unprecedented powerful force was far beyond his previous cognition.

This mysterious and terrifying power was like a giant beast awakened from the abyss, exuding a suffocating pressure. Wang Lu felt like a small boat in the storm, which could be completely swallowed up at any time. It felt as if the owner of this power could easily turn the whole world into dust and destroy everything with just a flick of his finger.

At the same time, the six ancient demons also keenly sensed the fatal threat brought by this power. Its six hideous and terrifying heads all showed extremely frightened expressions at this moment. Each head was twisted and deformed by fear, and bursts of low roars came out of its mouth, but these sounds seemed so insignificant in front of that powerful force.

The ancient demon tried its best to break free from the shackles and escape from this terrible place. However, no matter how it struggled and twisted its body, it found itself trapped in an inescapable cage, unable to move at all. The force was like a towering mountain, pressing it down tightly, forcing it to wait for the judgment of fate in despair and fear.

"No, we are trapped by this mysterious and powerful force!" Wang Lu couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart. At this moment, he knew that the situation had become extremely critical. He and the six fierce and brutal ancient demons might not be able to escape this disaster and would be buried here.

Seeing that terrifying force approaching like a surging tide, Wang Lu and the six ancient demons were filled with despair and fear. Every second that passed brought them one step closer to death.

Finally, in the suffocating and tense atmosphere, a huge figure beyond imagination slowly appeared before their eyes. This figure was like a towering mountain, emitting dazzling golden light all over, illuminating the entire space. The giant's extremely tall body was simply a towering existence, which was daunting.

However, the most eye-catching thing was the expressionless face. Although his face was expressionless, from his eyes as deep as the sea and as cold as frost, he continuously exuded an endless aura of majesty, as if anyone swept by his eyes would be instantly wiped out.

Only a deafening roar was heard: "Why did you break into my territory?" This roar was like a loud bell, echoing endlessly throughout the chaotic space, as if it was going to completely tear this mysterious land apart.

Wang Lu and the six ancient demons couldn't help but tremble and looked at each other in horror. Both sides' eyes were full of shock and fear. Obviously, no one expected to encounter such a huge creature here.

Wang Lu held the magic weapon in his hand tightly, his palms were covered with sweat, and he secretly wondered about the origin of the giant in front of him. The six ancient demons also had a look of fear on their faces, and their originally ferocious faces were now distorted by fear.

In front of that terrifying existence that seemed to be able to swallow all life, Wang Lu and his companions seemed to have been cast a restraining spell. Their bodies were so stiff that they could not move at all. Even breathing became extremely cautious. Afraid of attracting the slightest attention from the other party.

Wang Lu tried hard to suppress the fear that was surging in his heart, and explained in a voice that was shaking almost out of tune: "I... I really just broke into this place accidentally." He knew very well that at this time, At this moment, facing an existence that is so powerful that it is beyond imagination, if they cannot keep themselves as calm as possible, then the ending that awaits them may be a disaster, and they may even be broken into pieces.

After hearing Wang Lu's explanation, the huge figure like a mountain let out a cold snort of disdain. The sound was like thunder exploding in the air, making people's eardrums hurt. I saw the giant's copper-bell-sized eyes flashing with cold light, and there was a faint hint of murderous intent in them.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the six ancient demons on the side hurriedly begged for mercy: "Sir, please be noble and let us go! We have deeply realized our mistakes. As long as you show mercy and let us leave this place, , From now on, even if we are given a hundred courages, we will never dare to set foot in this chaotic space again!"

The giant stood like a majestic mountain. He didn't even raise his eyelids to the six ancient demons with claws and teeth, as if they were just insignificant ants. His huge eyes, like copper bells, were firmly locked on Wang Lu from beginning to end, without blinking, as if he had discovered some rare treasure on Wang Lu, full of strong interest and curiosity.

"Why do you have the aura of the Spiritual Continent on you?" The giant's deep and rich voice exploded in the air like rolling thunder, causing the surrounding air to tremble slightly. This sudden question made Wang Lu's heart suddenly tighten. He never expected that the huge creature in front of him could actually detect the faint aura from the Spiritual Fantasy Continent on his body! For a time, countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and he couldn't help but secretly wonder: Could it be that this giant is inextricably linked to the phantom continent? Or maybe he's been there before...

After a brief period of shock, Wang Lu quickly regained his composure. He knew that there was no point in hiding it at this moment, so after hesitating for a moment, he took a deep breath and decided to tell the truth. He raised his head, faced the majestic gaze of the giant, and said slowly: "To be honest, I do come from the Spiritual Fantasy Continent. I came here this time to find a long-lost treasure. Save my hometown from a disaster..." As Wang Lu told it, a gripping story gradually unfolded in front of the giant.

After hearing this, the giant slowly closed his eyes and frowned slightly, as if he was trying to remember something. Time passed by, and the surroundings were so quiet that only the gentle breeze rustling through the grass could be heard.

After a long time, the giant opened his eyes again, and there was a trace of complicated emotions in his deep eyes. After a moment of silence, he finally said slowly: "Linghuan Continent... I haven't heard this name for a long time. I didn't expect to hear it from your mouth again today. Anyway, since You claim to be a practitioner from the Spiritual Fantasy Continent, so I will give you a chance. However, this is not something you can get easily. You must pass the test I set. If you cannot pass it successfully. Then I don’t need to tell you the consequences.”

When Wang Lu heard this, he couldn't help but feel ecstatic in his heart, but on the surface he still managed to remain calm and hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Thank you for your gift! I will do my best to live up to your expectations!"

The giant nodded with satisfaction. He waved his big hand casually, and a dazzling golden light rushed out like lightning, shooting straight towards Wang Lu. Wang Lu didn't have time to react at all. He only felt a dazzling bright light suddenly light up in front of his eyes, followed by the world spinning, as if the whole world was turned upside down.

When Wang Lu opened his eyes again, he found that he was already in a completely unfamiliar environment. Looking around, what comes into view is the vast expanse of grassland. The green grass sways gently in the wind, like waves in the green ocean. The sky above our heads showed a pure and azure color, and the bright sunshine fell on the earth without any obstruction, warm and soft.

This grassland is simply two completely different worlds from the chaotic space we were in before. One side is dark and depressing, full of unknown dangers; the other side is vibrant, peaceful and peaceful. Such a huge contrast made Wang Lu feel dazed for a while, but he soon came to his senses, secretly clenched his fists, and silently encouraged himself in his heart: He must pass this test!

This is a mysterious and vast testing space. It seems to be shrouded by a layer of gauze. The faint mist curls up like light smoke, making this space appear more blurred and illusory. Being in it, people seem to be lost in an endless illusion, and it is difficult to distinguish the direction and boundaries.

Time passed by minute by second, and Wang Lu struggled to move forward alone in this foggy space. Every step was full of unknowns and dangers, but he never gave up his determination to explore.

Finally, after a long wait, the evening of the third day came quietly. At the moment when the sun was setting, Wang Lu was pleasantly surprised to find three faint lights flickering not far ahead. He quickly stepped forward and took a closer look. It turned out to be three keys that were emitting a strange light!

Wang Lu carefully picked up these three keys. They were heavy and seemed to contain endless power and secrets. Recalling the instructions given by the giant before, Wang Lu walked towards the mysterious door that had been hidden deep in the mist without hesitation.

When he came to the door, he took a deep breath and inserted the three keys in his hand into the keyhole one after another. Only a slight click was heard, and the door that had been closed for a long time began to slowly open. As the crack in the door gradually widened, a dazzling light shot out from the door, piercing Wang Lu so hard that he could hardly open his eyes.

When the light faded slightly, Wang Lu finally saw clearly the scene behind the door. He saw a huge figure standing there, it was the giant who once gave him guidance! At this time, the giant was looking at Wang Lu with a smile, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

"You passed the test, I can let you out." The giant said loudly, his voice reverberating throughout the space like a bell.

Hearing these words, Wang Lu suddenly felt a surge of joy in his heart. He quickly bowed to the giant and said thanks: "Thank you, sir! If it weren't for your guidance and help, I might not have been able to successfully complete this test."

The giant nodded slightly, expressing his recognition and response to Wang Lu. He waved his extremely thick arm casually, and an invisible force instantly enveloped Wang Lu's body.

In an instant, Wang Lu felt as if he had turned into a piece of light feathers, and his whole body had lost its weight. The scene in front of him changed rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, he found that he had returned to the vast space outside the territory.

However, at this moment, the originally menacing and vicious six-headed ancient demons had disappeared without a trace, as if they had never appeared. Wang Lu stood there, looking at the empty void around him, and couldn't help but feel a wave of fear in his heart.

He knew very well that if it hadn't been for the help of the mysterious giant, he might have died long ago and become the food of these ancient demons. Thinking of this, Wang Lu's heart was filled with gratitude to the giant.

At the same time, after experiencing this life and death test, Wang Lu also deeply realized the shortcomings of his own strength. In this crisis-ridden world, only by having enough power can you protect yourself and those around you from harm. Therefore, he secretly made a vow in his heart: He must redouble his efforts in cultivation, constantly break through himself, and make himself stronger and stronger! Only in this way can we avoid encountering a dangerous situation like today again.

With scars and fatigue all over his body, Wang Lu embarked on a journey back to the Spiritual Fantasy Continent. He knows that his road to spiritual practice is still long, and there are more challenges waiting for him in the future...
