The Lord of Void and Real

When Shen Luo heard the sounds from afar, he began to guess the possible situation over here. But when he saw it in person, he still felt shocked.

He immediately bypassed the crowded area, carefully evading the beasts, and made his way towards his residence along a small path.

Shen Luo was familiar with the Spring and Autumn Pavilion’s surroundings. He chose to walk down the remote and desolate lanes, and thanks to his sharp senses, he was able to effectively evade those demons. He soon reached Qingchipo.

Shen Luo did not take the main road in front of Qingchipo. Instead, he ran towards his residence along a small path behind the disciple’s room.

Before he had walked a few steps, a shadow flashed beside the disciple’s room ahead. A monster dog, half a human’s height, leaped out, holding a corpse in its mouth. It seemed to be hiding in this secluded spot, planning to feast quietly.

“Argh…” The monster dog spotted Shen Luo and immediately dropped the corpse, leaping towards Shen Luo.

Shen Luo swiftly bent down, dodging the demon dog’s pounce and casting a quick glance at the corpse on the ground.

The corpse was a young man with a square face and thick eyebrows, and his body was a bloody mess.

“Fang Ping!” Shen Luo exclaimed.

This was a disciple from the Spring and Autumn Pavilion who lived near Shen Luo. He was a local farmer, and the two had encountered each other a few times. They were relatively familiar with each other.

“Beast!” Shen Luo’s eyes turned cold, and with a flip of his right hand, the grey-white talisman fork appeared out of nowhere. It transformed into a white light and fired at the monster dog.

The monster dog got a fright, quickly leaped forward with its four hooves and tried to dodge to the side.

However, the little white fork suddenly made an agile turn, not only did it not fall behind, but it also caught up with the demon dog in the blink of an eye, striking its chest and abdomen with lightning speed.

With a dull “puff” sound, the talisman fork pierced through the demon dog.

A large hole was punched through the monster dog’s chest and stomach, nearly splitting its body in two. But no blood flowed out. The wound was frozen by a layer of pale black ice crystals.

The monster dog didn’t even have time to scream. Its body shook a few times and soon went still.

Shen Luo waved his hand to recall the talisman fork, a look of unexpected joy flashing in his eyes.

He had never been able to manipulate the Talismanic Instruments in such a smooth and effortless way before; yet, just now, he had accomplished it so naturally as if guided by an unseen hand.

“Could it also be related to the insights I’ve gained in the Dreamland?”

But the situation was urgent so he didn’t have time to dwell on it. He put away the talisman fork and continued on his way towards his residence. As for Fang Ping’s corpse, he could only leave it there.

Shen Luo soon arrived at his residence, which was located in a remote area and hadn’t been invaded yet.

As soon as he entered his room and closed the door, he immediately took out the stone box and the jade pillow from under the bed. He opened the stone box and tried to place the jade pillow inside.

As the jade pillow approached the stone box, it was immediately covered with a light shield and rapidly shrank into a piece of jade the size of a fist, which was then successfully placed inside the stone box.

Upon seeing this, Shen Luo quickly stuffed the jade pendant, his usual talisman drawing tools, several useful books, and two sets of clothes into the stone box. Afterwards, he packed the stone box and carried it on his back. R̃ÂɴỗʙÊs̩

After finishing these tasks, he didn’t linger in the room, he immediately walked out of his door.

“Junior Brother Shen, I knew you would be here, thank God!” A figure hurried over, it was Tian Tiesheng.

He held a steel knife in his hand, half of his body was soaked in blood, and he was panting heavily. It was obvious that he had just been through a fight.

“Senior Brother Tian, are you alright?” Shen Luo quickly greeted him. Seeing the blood on his body, he asked with genuine concern.

“It’s nothing, it’s just the blood of those monsters.” Tian Tiesheng waved his blood-soaked sleeve, saying nonchalantly.

“Senior Brother Tian, how did so many demonic entities suddenly appear in the Pavilion?” Shen Luo asked.

“I’m not sure, but these demons are powerful. Ordinary disciples are not their match. I was worried about you so I came over. Ah, Master Luo, the head of the Pavilion, and the Senior Ancestor… why haven’t they taken any action? If they continue to delay, all the disciples in the Pavilion will be killed by these monsters.” Tian Tiesheng anxiously stomped his foot.

“Looking at the situation, it seems like they want to wipe out our Spring and Autumn Pavilion in one fell swoop. I suspect that Master and the others can’t split their attention.” Shen Luo’s lips moved slightly as he tried to disclose Master Luo and the Senior Ancestor’s situation, but he swallowed his words just as they were about to be spoken, and changed the subject instead.

Upon hearing Shen Luo’s words, Tian Tiesheng’s face stiffened slightly, as if he had just thought of this.

“What should we do then?” he quickly asked.

“Senior Brother Tian, you joined the Pavilion much earlier than I did. Does the Spring and Autumn Pavilion have any secret passages for escape?” Shen Luo asked in a hushed voice.

“No, I have never heard Master Luo mention anything about a secret passage.” Tian Tiesheng shook his head.

“The Pavilion is now full of demons, and we are no match for them. Master Luo and the others have not shown up for a long time, I’m afraid they can’t take care of this side. We should first find a way to save our lives.” A shadow fell upon Shen Luo’s heart as he spoke.

Tian Tiesheng’s eyes lit up at Shen Luo’s words, he was about to speak…

A howling noise sounded, and two Corpse Wolves swooped out of the nearby intersection. Seeing Shen Luo and Tian Tiesheng, they immediately growled and pounced.

“Run!”

Shen Luo, not wanting to reveal that he had cultivated his Mana, hurriedly pulled Tian Tiesheng to escape towards the back of their residence.

The Qingchipo was close to the cliffside, and the two Corpse Wolves had blocked their main escape route. The pair had no choice but to try and escape in another direction along the cliff edge.

They had not escaped far when another Corpse Wolf suddenly leaped down from somewhere in front of them, blocking their path.

With three Corpse Wolves closing in from both directions and sensing the pair’s predicament, they constantly howled.

“Junior Brother, we’ll have to fight these three beasts!” Seeing there was no way out, Tian Tiesheng raised his steel knife, ready to fight the Corpse Wolves to the death.

“There’s a way, follow me!” Shen Luo hastily pulled Tian Tiesheng back, and pointed towards the steep mountain wall next to the cliff.

The slope here was slightly gentler and barely walkable. However, the gentle slope in front was quickly blocked by a giant stone from below the cliff, and it was unclear what lay beyond it.

Shen Luo vaulted down the cliff, pushed against the stone with his hand, and slid down the slope. His figure was quickly obscured by the cliff.

The three Corpse Wolves saw Shen Luo’s figure disappear suddenly, their speed dramatically increased, and they rushed over.

Tian Tiesheng gritted his teeth, and like Shen Luo, vaulted down the cliff, jumped onto the slant, and cautiously moved forward feeling the stone wall.

After a few steps and maneuvering around the obstructing rocks at the lower part of the cliff, the view in front of him suddenly opened up. The slope here was gentler, and he could faintly see the ridge of the Mountain Gate below.

“Senior Brother Tian, over here.” Shen Luo had already moved some distance along the slope. Seeing Tian Tiesheng come down, he waved for him to follow.

“Junior Brother Shen, how did you know there was a path down the mountain here?” Tian Tiesheng quickly walked over and asked.

“I live next to this cliff. I used to wander around here when I had nothing to do, and I found this place by accident.” Shen Luo sped forward, responding without looking back.

“Thank goodness, thank goodness!” Tian Tiesheng quickly nodded and followed closely.

The three Corpse Wolves did not chase after them from behind, as if they had given up on the two.
