I Have A Disciple Simulator - Chapter 165: The Power of Ninth-Ranked Talismans

Lu Changsheng, upon his initial use of the Immortal Artifact True Dragon Divine Fire Cover, roughly knew the power of this treasure.

Within the same realm, unless one possessed sufficient strength to break the Divine Fire Cloak or had defensive artifacts to withstand the Samadhi True Fire, it would be difficult to breach its defense.

The True Dragon Godly Fire Cloak excelled at restraining cultivators with agile techniques; once enveloped by it, with the emergence of the fire dragon spirit within, there was no escape.

Lu Changsheng looked toward the Demon General who was locked in combat with Fairy Yi’an, Master Wuchen, and Grandmaster Ju.

The Demon General, wielding a Demon Blade, parried a strike from Grandmaster Ju who clutched the Blackwater Profound Hammer.

Grandmaster Ju spat out a mouthful of blood, looking utterly disheartened.

He was four realms below the Demon General and was no match for him.

The Demon General flung a slash of black blade light toward Fairy Yi’an.

Fairy Yi’an maneuvered her sword to evade the blade light, which cleaved through a mountain.

Fairy Yi’an, observing the neatly severed mountain peak, wore a solemn expression.

The strength of this Demon General surpassed everyone present.

Another stroke of black blade light came swinging toward Master Wuchen.

Prayer beads flew from Master Wuchen’s hands, forming Buddhist seals in mid-air.

When the blade light struck the seals, the golden emblems shattered inch by inch, turning into golden light and dissolving, with the blade light finally falling upon Master Wuchen.

“Pfft.”

Master Wuchen, struck by the black blade light, vomited blood, his chest stained in red.

Depleted of its mana, the prayer beads returned to Master Wuchen’s hands.

The cultivation of the Demon General neared that of the six Sect Leaders; even combined efforts of three Supreme Elders failed to fell him.

A Sword Qi attacked, and the Demon General dodged the Blazing Extermination Sword, which grazed past him.

Even with the cultivation of the Demon General, he dared not let his body be struck by the Blazing Extermination Sword.

“I didn’t expect you to be so powerful, effortlessly slaying a member of the Demon Race of the same realm.”

The Demon General looked toward Lu, who wielded the Blazing Extermination Sword, and as their gazes met, Lu showed no fear.

Lu had more than one means to preserve his life.

“Nevertheless, even with an additional person, I can still kill all of you.”

The Demon General remained arrogant.

Fairy Yi’an’s voice transmission arrived, “Even if we join forces, we might not manage to kill this demon. Should we attract other Demon Generals, it would spell disaster; perhaps we should retreat for now.”

“This demon is proficient in the Space Law. Unless we seriously injure him, escape will be difficult. Fairy Yi’an, do you have a way to lure the Demon General into my ‘True Dragon Godly Fire Cloak’?”

Lu covertly communicated with Fairy Yi’an through voice transmission.

The Immortal Artifact True Dragon Divine Fire Cover had a major flaw; when expanded a myriad of times, it was easy for the adversary to escape.

The effectiveness of the True Dragon Divine Fire Cover diminished if the target wasn’t trapped within it.

Fairy Yi’an of the Hidden Dragon Temple was adept in formations, strategies, and deductions. She might have a method.

“I’ll give it a try like this…”

After briefly explaining her plan, Fairy Yi’an retrieved twelve spirit banners and, with the surge of True Qi, installed them at twelve positions, seemingly to trap the Demon General.

“I’m not going to easily enter your formation.”

Unaware of what formation Fairy Yi’an intended to use, the Demon General’s first instinct was to leave the area covered by the twelve spirit banners.

The Demon General inadvertently had already fallen into Fairy Yi’an’s calculation.

Just as he left the range of the spirit banners, Lu’s True Dragon Divine Fire Cover descended upon him from above!

The Demon General was enveloped by the True Dragon Divine Fire Cover.

“I’ve already grasped the pattern of how you dodge, predicting the direction you’d avoid my formation wasn’t difficult. In truth, I had no intention of forming a formation; these twelve spirit banners are unrelated.”

Fairy Yi’an withdrew the twelve spirit banners, successfully outsmarting the Demon General.

The Demon General might have high cultivation, but his mind wasn’t as quick as hers.

“Damn it, despicable human race!”

The Demon General’s forehead throbbed with popping veins as he roared repeatedly.

“Lu, although your Immortal Artifact is miraculous, with your level of cultivation, it’s unlikely you can kill him by activating this treasure. It won’t be long before he breaks free.”

“If we take this opportunity to leave, you’ll also lose this artifact.”

Fairy Yi’an, Master Wuchen, and Grandmaster Ju did not believe that Lu Changsheng, a third-level Void Refinement Realm cultivator, could kill an eighth-level Void Refinement Realm Demon General with the True Dragon Godly Fire Cloak.

The gap between them was simply too vast.

“I know that merely relying on this Immortal Artifact isn’t enough to severely wound the Demon General, so I planted a talisman in advance.”

Lu Changsheng swallowed an eighth-grade Red Emperor Dragon Strength Pill, temporarily boosting his cultivation to the fourth level of the Void Refinement Realm, and then put all his energy into activating the ninth-grade talisman, ‘Golden Crow Heaven Burning Talisman,’ which he had placed in the True Dragon Godly Fire Cloak in advance.

This was a reward returned by the system when his third disciple, Mo Huazhi, broke through to the Dao Palace realm.

Lu Changsheng had never used this precious ninth-grade talisman before.

Now facing an eighth-level Void Refinement Realm Demon General, Lu Changsheng gritted his teeth and activated the ‘Golden Crow Heaven Burning Talisman.’

Just as the Demon General was about to find a way to break through the True Dragon Godly Fire Cloak, the Golden Crow Heaven Burning Talisman blazed intensely, the silhouette of the Golden Crow appeared, and the golden divine fire swept through the whole True Dragon Godly Fire Cloak!

The Demon General couldn’t escape the barrier of the True Dragon Godly Fire Cloak in time and got devoured by the Golden Crow Divine Fire!

The Golden Crow Divine Fire summoned by the ninth-grade talisman was even more powerful than the Samadhi True Fire!

“Hiss…”

Fairy Yi’an, Master Wuchen, and Grandmaster Ju had thought that Lu Changsheng would use the Samadhi True Fire of the True Dragon Godly Fire Cloak to severely injure the Demon General, but Lu Changsheng relied on the even more advanced Golden Crow Divine Fire instead.

“A ninth-grade talisman is something that even the Temple Master of our Hidden Dragon Temple can’t create many of.”

Fairy Yi’an knew how rare ninth-grade talismans were.

It could be said that Lu Changsheng’s current level of cultivation couldn’t fully exert the full power of the ‘Golden Crow Heaven Burning Talisman.’

Using a ninth-grade talisman to attack the Demon General was frankly extravagant.

“Escape!”

The remaining Loose Cultivators of Huang State, seeing the most powerful Demon General trapped in the True Dragon Godly Fire Cloak and burnt by the Golden Crow Divine Fire, thought the Demon General might fall and quickly fled in disarray.

“Hunyuan Xingyi Taiji Staff!”

Master Ma of the Martial Alliance executed a Heaven Rank superior staff technique, injuring a matchless Great Demon of the fifth level of the Void Refinement Realm.

The Great Demon transformed into a clump of Demonic Qi and fled in panic.

Those of the Martial Alliance who specialized in Body Refinement were not inferior to members of the Demon Race of the same realm in terms of physical prowess.

“Don’t even think about killing me!”

The Demon General struggled furiously, the Demon Blade exuding boundless Demonic Qi, separating it from the Golden Crow Divine Fire.

The Golden Crow Divine Fire burned the Demonic Qi while the Demon General took advantage of the precious gap to recite an incantation.

Spatial ripples appeared as the Demon General sacrificed years of his lifespan to use a space secret technique, teleporting instantly to escape the True Dragon Godly Fire Cloak.

A thousand miles away, the Demon General reappeared, still with traces of the Golden Crow Divine Fire clinging to him.

The Demon General exhausted all his strength just to extinguish such a small amount of Golden Crow Divine Fire.

“This human brat has cost me five hundred years of my lifespan! Next time I see him, I will crush him until both his godly and mortal forms are destroyed!”

The Demon General roared towards the sky.

He was actually severely injured by a human cultivator five realms below himself and was forced to pay the price of five hundred years of his lifespan.

Drained of True Qi, the Demon General no longer had the strength to seek out Lu Changsheng and the others for trouble and could only retreat.

After the Golden Crow Divine Fire had dissipated, Lu Changsheng retrieved the True Dragon Godly Fire Cloak, “If my level of cultivation were closer to his, he might not have been able to escape. Let’s go.”
