Martial Saint!

Po Suo Heart Cultivation in perception, spiritual power, and long-range capabilities, could be said to be unmatched, but once engaged in close quarters and having their Spiritual Barrier shattered, they become lambs to the slaughter. Don't even mention the Heavenly King; some quasi-Heavenly Kings and End Realm Grandmasters can counterattack them as long as the timing is right!

Screech—

Lu Chenzhou took the opportunity to slash, splitting the aged body into two, with blood spurting wildly and bone fragments scattered.

"Mr. Lu, try to capture alive!"

Fairy Plum Blossom's eyes narrowed, hastily reminding. Po Suo Heart Cultivation is too fragile. Lu Chenzhou's spear was truly fierce. She was afraid this old fellow would be killed by Lu Chenzhou in one shot.

Beside him, Master Golden Light's eye twitched slightly. He knew Lu Chenzhou had the strength of a quasi-Heavenly King, but penetrating the Spirit King's Barrier with a single spear still opened his eyes.

Lu Chenzhou withdrew his long spear, intending to protect the Heart Piercing Needle's life through the Dao of Withering and Flourishing. Before reaching the Heavenly Realm, once Po Suo Heart Cultivation's body dies, its spirit would also be extinguished.

Suddenly, his body trembled instinctively, a chill shot up from his spine to his skull, an extreme sense of danger came.

Whoosh!

In an instant, an almost imperceptible seven-colored light appeared in front of him from hundreds of miles away!

This was an embroidery needle about an inch long!

Crack—

Accompanied by the sound of glass shattering, the Immortal Armor, strong enough to withstand the onslaught of the Six-Headed Demon Emperor, cracked on impact. Next, the Tiger Flood Dragon Wind Helmet, a Top Class Divine Weapon embryo, was also pierced, followed by other defenses, layer by layer breaking. This embroidery needle contained a trace of the extreme Penetrating Dao Essence.

The Ancient Times alien species, Nightmare Snake, refined it, honing a fang that could penetrate everything for hunting powerful creatures; it could pierce even through the heavily armored.

Finally, the embroidery needle pierced into the Glazed Bone like an armor-piercing projectile embedded in a steel plate.

It finally stopped, followed by the fierce collision impact, conducting from the forehead to the entire body, this force was no less than an Initial Realm King striking with a heavy hammer blunt weapon, and the Withering and Flourishing Body reacted immediately, choosing to transform into a flowing water shape using the Soft Character Technique, causing Lu Chenzhou's body to deform like mud, flying backwards, but this residual force scattered Lu Chenzhou's body into countless stars in mid-air.

Blood and flesh scattered over the lake.

Crash—Lu Chenzhou, shattered.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye, and Lu Chenzhou and the two Heavenly Kings had no premonition.

Master Golden Light's expression changed dramatically.

"Mr. Lu!"

Fairy Plum Blossom's longsword fell, the Sword Qi splitting the old man's body in two, the violent Sword Formation shredding the flesh. At this moment, she couldn't care about capturing alive.

"What happened, how could he still launch such an attack despite suffering such severe injuries?"

Fairy Plum Blossom stared at the heap of mush.

Now, the Heart Piercing Needle should be dead; even a Spiritual Great Emperor cannot fully escape the shackles of the flesh.

She spread her spiritual power, sensing Lu Chenzhou's fragments falling to the lake bottom, her heart in turmoil.

How could this be?

The Da Xia's number one genius, dead.

The bizarre attack just now must have been some powerful treasure, not something a newly entered Sixth Realm Po Suo Heart Cultivator could wield. The problem is, Qianye Jingsan's intelligence didn't include this; the person was controlled by Lu Chenzhou with the Ghost Slave Mark and shouldn't have lied. This was the Heart Piercing Needle's unknown trump card, likely at the Spiritual Weapon Level.

It's not just Lu Chenzhou; that strike just now, if targeted at her or Master Golden Light, the two of them would have been in a nine deaths and one life situation. Lu Chenzhou, even less so.

Though he was strong, he was only a Grandmaster.

"Our actions have been prematurely detected by the enemy, Fairy Plum Blossom, let's retreat," Master Golden Light said.

Fairy Plum Blossom's heart was somewhat panicked.

As a Heavenly King senior, she didn't manage to protect Lu Chenzhou. She felt guilty; not long ago, he was still a living person, favored by her sister...She knew that anything her sister liked wouldn't end well.

"Let's search again."

Fairy Plum Blossom was unwilling, spreading her telekinesis, collecting Lu Chenzhou's flesh and armor piece by piece.

Master Golden Light sighed, looking around.

A while later,

Fairy Plum Blossom's eye twitched. After piecing together Lu Chenzhou's fragments, she found the chest and head missing. Her eyes reddened, her last hope shattered, she couldn't help but sob in a low voice, "Mr. Lu, died a tragic death, that alien treasure pierced his forehead, even the head was shattered, disappeared completely, how...how could this happen?"

Master Golden Light's expression hardened.

He comforted, "Fairy need not grieve too deeply, Mr. Lu has great fortune; it's said that the strength he cultivates is Horizontal Training, which includes the Undying Body, he might have already escaped. If his Unmelting Bone was in his head, there's a glimmer of hope."

Fairy Plum Blossom thought, it might be possible.

But hope was too slim; that attack just now could shatter even a Heavenly King's Unmelting Bone, even the Supreme Divine Weapon might not hold, let alone Mr. Lu.

Moments later, Master Golden Light sent a communication, "Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu...if you are still here, respond."

The wind rustled by the lake, waves rose and fell, water birds chirped occasionally.

But no one responded.

Plum Blossom Immortal: "Go back, I have already reported this to the council, let's first see the state of the Wanxiang Dao's Life Candle."

Golden Light Master: "Indeed..."

The two figures turned into rainbows and flew away.

...

The water calmed down, and Yun Meng Lake returned to its original state. The original source is M|V|L5EMPYR.

On a sandbar hidden in the reeds, a mini snake about an inch long coiled on the ground, its body covered in black shiny scales. Each scale, when magnified, revealed mysterious Immortal Seal Runes, resembling tadpole scripts.

The little snake flicked its tongue, murmuring to itself.

"Hahaha, I did it, I really killed Lu Chenzhou. The Shocking Heart Needle did not disappoint me, although it deviated a bit from my expectation. The Nightmare Poison failed to successfully inject into his brain, but the collision shockwave shattered him. With his Great Grandmaster body, even if not dead, he's on the brink of death.

The Nightmare Poison that seeped into the flesh will spread to the spirit, using the body as a medium. If it were his peak period, it wouldn't be scary, but in a dying body, this thread of Nightmare Poison will become the last straw to break the camel's back. In at most a quarter of an hour, Lu Chenzhou will be left with no place of burial."

Not easy, ah, for decades, so many Evil Gods in the Forbidden Zone racked their brains without being able to kill this individual. In the end, it was my meticulous planning that accomplished this grand feat.

It's worth it, sacrificing my body as bait. Who would have thought, I have a Blood and Flesh Immortal Puppet of Sixth Rank refined by Shocking Heart Scatter for myself as a temporary body for my soul to linger on. I can survive for another seven days after my body is gone. Anyway, I don't plan to be a human again. Once this matter is settled, let the Old Mother reshape my Heavenly Ghost body. I'll still be carefree, with a long lifespan and a hope to become a Ghost Venerate!"

The Heart Piercing Needle, he wasn't dead. He gambled everything, under the protection of two Heavenly Kings, and counter-killed Lu Chenzhou!

A quarter of an hour later.

"Lu Chenzhou should be dead now..."

The little snake transformed into a beam of light and disappeared. When approaching the incident location, it drilled into a large carp, controlling the carp to swing its tail and swim towards the center of the battlefield.

It searched everywhere, spreading its spiritual power cautiously, looking at the flesh and blood fragments on the ground, sneering.

"Tsk tsk, so tragic. This flesh has already lost its spirituality. As expected, he's dead. Otherwise, with a Great Grandmaster's body, the flesh should still be able to wriggle."

Seeing this, the little snake communicated with the Eye of Truth.

A strange eyeball projection appeared out of nowhere. From inside came the indifferent voice of the Heart Happiness Sect's hierarch.

"What is it?"

"Master, I killed Lu Chenzhou."

"Hmm? True or false?"

"Lu Chenzhou was shattered by me, his flesh's spirituality already lost; he's probably scattered soul and vanished..."

He reported his plan to the hierarch.

After a moment of silence, the hierarch coldly said:

"He's not dead! His Unmelting Bone is in the head, as long as the head is intact, it can recover after a period."

"But my Nightmare Poison can corrode the spirit..."

"His spiritual power is stronger than you think. If it doesn't directly hit the Sea of Consciousness, it's hard to kill. Forget it, being able to do this, you've done well enough. Frankly, I'm somewhat surprised; I thought this would be another complete failure. I grant you a Heavenly Ghost Soul Crystal, refine it, and you have a hope to transform into an Undying Heavenly Ghost. Serve the organization well in the future, and becoming a god from Heavenly Ghost is just the beginning, why not?"

The eyeball vanished.

In the void, a gray crystal appeared, exuding dense ghost aura and spiritual energy—this is negative energy, once refined, there is no turning back.

The little snake trembled with excitement. "The legendary Heavenly Ghost Soul Crystal, a rare treasure only formed with a small probability when a powerful Heavenly Ghost falls. This one is enough to increase the probability of a Peak Great Ghost King's promotion to Heavenly Ghost by fifty percent. With my Sixth Realm Spirit, success is guaranteed!" It sucked the soul crystal into its stomach, planning to find a safe place to start refining.

Buzz buzz——

A figure in white robes quietly emerged from the shadows, his face cold, long spear like a dragon, manifesting the scene of Dusk of the Gods, using overwhelming momentum to suppress.

Rumble!

The waters of the lake within a few miles were emptied, and the little snake was caught off guard and suppressed onto the couch, unable to move.

"What? Lu Chenzhou? You're not dead?"

The little snake's tone was incredulous.

He set up a meticulous ambush, sacrificed his body, gave his all, launched the Heart Piercing Needle, a quasi-Spiritual Weapon, successfully hitting Lu Chenzhou's brow, which to most Initial Realm, even Middle Realm Heavenly Kings, would have been a Nine Deaths and One Life situation, yet Lu Chenzhou seemed unharmed.

His common sense told him that Martial Artists, even if Heavenly King strong, do not possess such a powerful Undying Body to recover in a short time after turning into flesh pieces.

Could it be, what he just killed was a clone?

But he hadn't heard that Lu Chenzhou practiced with clones, and it's very difficult for Martial Artists to cultivate clones, only Heavenly Kings can barely cultivate avatars, but avatars are illusory. He could see at a glance it was completely different from clones.

The little snake was confused.

But after all, it was a Sixth Realm strong entity, and it quickly regained its senses. With its last bit of strength controlling the Blood and Flesh Immortal Puppet, the little snake grew against the wind, transforming into a ferociously large snake over a thousand feet long, with colorful scales on its head.

The large snake broke free from the suppression, opening its bloody mouth wide.

"Heh, I can kill you once, I can kill you again, no matter who you are, go to hell!"
