533: First battle against Jindan Zhenren
Although the Third-Order puppet possessed extraordinary combat power, it lacked intelligence and relied entirely on Zhou Luo's conscious control.
Therefore, when facing Long Yu, who was also a Golden Core True Person, it was clearly a bit unable to keep up with the opponent's rhythm.
At this moment, Long Yu seized the opportunity, taking advantage of a brief gap created by an attack, and instantly charged towards Zhou Luo.
His speed was astonishing, and the might of a Golden Core True Person instantly locked onto Zhou Luo. That terrifying pressure surged like mountains and seas, as if countless mountains had fallen upon Zhou Luo's body.
Zhou Luo's eyes darkened, and he decisively popped the Spiritual Earth Pill that Dragon Yunting had given him into his mouth.
The moment the Pill entered his body, it unleashed a surge of immense power. The vast energy flowed like a river breaking its banks, circulating throughout his body.
His entire body emitted a crystalline light.
Boom—
Seeing Long Yu approaching, his entire body erupted with a muffled sound.
Then, with a bang, he shook off the opponent's restraint.
Long Yu raised an eyebrow. Although he didn't know what method the opponent had used, he had already charged forward.
With his Golden Core Realm cultivation, even if the opponent had temporarily increased his strength, he would definitely not be his opponent.
He was certain to die.
While thinking, Long Yu struck out with a palm.
Fierce flames surged from his palm, and his entire body was enveloped in boundless inferno. A scorching aura rolled forth.
Terrifying power erupted at this moment.
Zhou Luo's face was calm. Instead of retreating, he advanced. His entire body transformed into a stream of light and shot out, also striking with a palm.
Compared to the opponent's dazzling and boundless palm strike, his own palm strike seemed somewhat simple and unadorned.
"Courting death."
Seeing that the opponent actually dared to attack him, a Golden Core Realm cultivator, Long Yu sneered inwardly, his face filled with mockery.
He didn't believe at all that the opponent possessed the strength to contend with him.
Even if he had taken the Pills, he would absolutely be unable to surpass him.
He had been cultivating immortality in the Golden Core Realm for many years and possessed profound cultivation. How could a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator possibly contend with him?
Therefore, he confidently met the opponent's palm strike.
However, at the moment their palms met, Long Yu's expression suddenly changed drastically.
He saw intense light appearing at the point of collision. His incredibly confident fierce flames were instantly suppressed by an invisible power and were constantly shrinking.
Although the two hadn't truly collided yet, that terrifying physical strength made Long Yu feel an extremely dreadful power.
That power instantly suppressed his Flame Technique, and a single palm strike broke through the might he had gathered.
Bang—
Accompanied by the earth-shattering explosion, Long Yu felt immense pressure on his entire arm, and his body trembled incessantly.
His Golden Core Realm cultivation did not help him; instead, it caused his entire body to be violently pushed back.
Zhou Luo's face was serious. The crystalline radiance on his body flickered wildly. He stepped forward and punched out again.
His original Physical Body had already reached the quality of a Spiritual Artifact. Now, after taking that Spiritual Earth Pill, his physical strength had surged to an unbelievable degree.
Therefore, even Long Yu was unable to resist.
At this moment, he had punched out. That punch was also simple and unadorned, but the power it contained was incredibly overbearing.
Long Yu's face paled with fright. He had never expected the opponent's physical strength to be so terrifying.
He quickly circulated the Golden Core within his body. Spiritual power flowed rapidly, his entire body's might greatly increased, and he collided with him again.
The Golden Core Realm and the Foundation Establishment Realm were similarly separated by a chasm.
If the Dantian was the engine of an Immortal, then stepping into the Foundation Establishment Realm was like turning a naturally aspirated engine into a turbocharged one, bringing even greater strength to the Immortal.
As for the Golden Core Realm.
It was like transforming a four-cylinder engine directly into an eight-cylinder engine, or even a twenty-cylinder engine.
The strength gained by the Immortal was incredibly terrifying.
It could instantly bring immense power to the Immortal.
Bang—
With another loud bang, Long Yu, who possessed Golden Core cultivation, and Zhou Luo, who was still at the Foundation Establishment Stage, collided.
However, with only an "eight-cylinder engine," he seemed insufficient to contend with the opponent.
Although he unleashed more terrifying power than before with the help of the Golden Core.
But the moment after the collision, his strength seemed instantly suppressed. That immense physical strength made him feel as if he had punched an unbreakable wall.
The huge recoil force caused him to instantly retreat, and his entire arm trembled incessantly from the shock.
At this moment, the Third-Order puppet had already attacked.
Seeing this situation, Long Yu immediately realized that he would be unable to kill this Monster-like Zhou Luo today.
So he didn't hesitate to activate his spiritual power and rushed to the side, wanting to escape from here.
But Zhou Luo wouldn't give him the chance to leave.
After all, from the very beginning, he had been thinking of taking his head to collect the reward.
So he decisively controlled the Third-Order puppet to cut off his retreat. He also charged forward and continuously released various Second Order Talismans.
Although the Second Order Talismans couldn't severely injure the opponent, the various energies they unleashed were enough to slow down the opponent's speed.
Long Yu didn't expect the opponent to dare to push his luck.
He was furious. He knew that if he didn't deal with this guy, he wouldn't be able to escape today.
So he gritted his teeth, took out a Pill and put it in his mouth, and activated his Golden Core again, wanting to fight Zhou Luo to the death.
Zhou Luo was not a fool.
Knowing that the guy in front of him was already making a cornered beast's struggle, he chose to let the Third-Order puppet block most of the opponent's attacks for him, while he assisted from the side, occasionally throwing out various Second Order Talismans to interfere with the opponent.
As a Second Order Spiritual Talisman Master, he had never had the opportunity to use attack Talismans.
Now that he had the chance, he naturally didn't hold back at all.
Anyway, if he didn't use them, it would be a waste. At worst, he could just craft some more later.
Controlling Second Order Talisman Crafting techniques, he was quite willful in this regard.
Facing the opponent's rogue-like fighting style, Long Yu was also extremely frustrated.
Don't look at him having Golden Core cultivation, but he had no way to kill Zhou Luo with a single blow.
Once he collided with the opponent, they would fall into a stalemate. At this point, the Third-Order puppet would immediately attack from behind.
And if he fully focused on dealing with the Third-Order puppet, Zhou Luo, with that pile of Talismans, would immediately counterattack, making him unbearably harassed.
Frustrated, too frustrated.
Long Yu felt that he hadn't been this frustrated even when facing a Golden Core True Person.
The key was, he still had no way.
As Time passed, Long Yu, worried about the arrival of the opponent's reinforcements, became increasingly anxious to escape.
But Zhou Luo seemed to have already seen through his thoughts and kept delaying his steps.
"You deserve to die!"
Long Yu erupted in fury. The strength within his body exploded again. His entire body was enveloped in fierce flames, like a Flame War God, and he charged towards Zhou Luo with a roar.
