Chapter 84: The Law of Sacrifice
What humans can't kill is of course the dead!
He's already dead, how can you still kill him?!
This demon beast is clearly a dead beast from hell!
"Do you understand what we're up against now?" The Pope turned his head, also looking quite pained. "Since two months ago, this demon has been wreaking havoc on Mount Heiluo. To defeat him, I, my aunt, the commander of the Heavenly Father's Legion, the Archbishop of Shen'en... including several elders over 200 years old, at least ten of us can do it, but to catch him is just too difficult!"
"Last time, my aunt used her third eye to lock onto his position, I personally led the team to kill him, and as a result, I knocked him down with just two moves. But this guy suddenly came at me with a suicidal self-explosion! Damn it, I was left looking like a fool, but he calmly turned into a ghost, took a spin in hell, and then killed his way back!"
"The Pope burst into a loud scolding, 'And last time, more than sixty top-notch inner court experts surrounded him at the foot of the mountain, with swords and axes already placed on his neck. But guess what this monster did? This guy charged head-on into the blade, cutting off his own head, then floated around like a ghost, circling around, and after three days, continued to kill people!'"
"So we sit here worrying, what method should be used to deal with such a monster that cannot be killed or beaten, and will not stop until Ye Huan is dead?"
Ye Huan's eyes flashed with inspiration, "Isn't there a divine artifact on the mainland that can kill ghosts? The Ghost Marbles that Ruxiu is using now are also used to kill ghosts, but they can't even kill this demon beast!?"
"Onimaru can indeed kill oni, but what ultimately decides the strength of a weapon is the person wielding it!" Sotenka sighed, "This yōjū has mastered the strongest iron rules, and is a ghost god. Even if Onimaru were to try and kill him, he would at least need to be in the hands of a heavenly god!"
……
Actually, there is a very simple way to drive away this monster, just throw Ye Huan out and let him vent his anger, this monster will definitely leave with satisfaction. However, the people present, the Pope is Ye Huan's benefactor, Nikola is his teacher, and Su Tianhe seems to have something to do with Ye Huan, so they won't resort to such a tactic.
"Lu Xiu!"
Just as a few people were worried, the martial arts arena suddenly heard Bai Xiaobai's scream. Ye Huan looked through the door gap and saw that after a long wait, Lu Xiu had already been cut by the demon beast with a half-meter-long blood mark on his chest, and fell to the ground in the arena.
The most crucial thing was that Bai Xiaowei's sudden cry of surprise gave the demon beast a hint.
"Ruxiu?" The demon beast tilted its head, looked at the opponent on the ground, and let out a strange laugh. "You're Ruxiu, Ye Huan's teammate... then you..." It saw several people from Donglin, "You're all Ye Huan's teammates! Haha, since I can't kill Ye Huan today, I'll make sure you all die miserably and let Ye Huan taste the pain of losing loved ones!"
A large patch of black fog spread out from his body again and rolled towards Donglin and several others under the stage.
Ye Huan could no longer bear it and was about to rush out, but Miss Nikolai gently pressed down on his shoulder. "Do you want to send yourself to death?"
"I won't go out to die, and everyone will have to die!" Ye Huan grabbed Nikola's slender hand, trying to shake it off with all his might, but unexpectedly, Nikola's strength was extremely great, and he couldn't move at all. Enraged, he shouted: "Miss Nikola, let me go!"
"Alright, I won't stop you from going to your death, but I'm Donglin's tactical advisor, give me a few minutes and let me finish this guidance, okay?"
Although it was a tone of negotiation, Miss Nikolai was filled with unquestionable majesty.
She pushed open the door and strode into the martial arts arena.
At this time, a very untimely little episode occurred. The Pope suddenly rushed over, grabbed Ye Huan's palm and stroked it repeatedly, with an expression of surprise and admiration, "Ah, you actually dare to touch Miss Nikola's hand! Come on, give me some good luck!"
Does it still have the Pope's appearance!?!
As she walked into the martial arts arena, Miss Nicola, who was slender in build, did not arouse the vigilance of the demon beast. She didn't even look at Rudeus, who had fallen to the ground, and simply said, "Rudeus, what are you thinking about?"
"It's all my fault... it's all my fault!" Lushu lay on the ground, his chest still bleeding, but more noticeable were the tears welling up in the corners of his eyes.
"If it weren't for that damn order I gave, none of you would have come back here to cheer me on. None of you would have come, and then you wouldn't have been driven to desperation by this monster... It's all my fault!"
"You've made a mistake, how are you going to make up for it?" Miss Nikolai smiled calmly.
After a moment of thought, Lushi smiled and said, "Right, since it's all my fault, I should be the one to die in front of everyone. As a descendant of Pandalong, if I'm wrong, I should atone for it with my life!"
At this time, the black fog of the demon beast had surrounded several people in Donglin, just like a cat playing with mice, slowly consuming the life force of these few people. But Ruxiu suddenly sprang up from nowhere and struck his sword at the left leg of the demon beast.
Hehe!
There's only a string of Mars, this monster's defense is too strong, its fur is like tempered steel!
However, this also enraged the demon beast. "Die and not stiffen!" He immediately withdrew the black fog, turned around, grabbed Ruxiu's neck with one claw, lifted him up, and with the other claw, formed a sharp cone shape, stabbed into Ruxiu's chest!
Several people in Donglin were stunned, and Ye Huan even cursed loudly, "You son of a bitch, Nikola! Is this your guidance? Are you going to let Ruxiu die?"
Miss Ke Ni Gu La gazed at him as if he was invisible, and coldly said: "Draw your sword again!"
"Roar!!"
Lü Xiū had long been in a daze, relying solely on his instincts, and swung his sword towards the demonic claw that was piercing his chest. What happened next was truly astonishing... With a "pu" sound, the demonic claw, which had previously been as hard as steel, was now cut off like tofu, dangling from Lü Xiū's chest.
What's even more incredible is that the moment the demon beast was injured, the golden glow under Ruxiu's feet suddenly burst into radiance and gently swept across his wound. In an instant, Ruxiu, who should have been mortally wounded, seemed to be reborn, swaying unsteadily as he stood firm!
"I... I wounded the demonic beast!?" Ruxiu was stunned, having exchanged dozens of blows just earlier. He knew his own strength all too well and it was absolutely impossible for him to harm this demonic beast that far surpassed him.
Outside the martial arts arena, Su Tianhe was already staring at the Pope in surprise, "Your Majesty Reinhardt, who is this woman? She can actually continue Udo's training and develop Lelouch's strongest theorem!?"
"Ah, an old friend!" The Pope was clearly being sarcastic.
"Sū lǎo, what's going on? How could Lǚ Xiū actually wound this demon beast?" Yè Huān exclaimed in surprise.
"This is called: Within the scope of the law, any power that brings harm to Lu Xiuzhi will be transformed into Lu Xiuzhi's life force, defensive power, and attacking power!" Su Tianhe paused for a moment, "This is just the beginning, there are still the first layer, second layer, third layer... If Lu Xiuzhi's talent is high enough, one day it will even evolve into the Sun God's Golden Body of the Sun, indestructible, unkillable, shining with the Great Sun!"
As he said this, Su Tianhe slightly furrowed his brow.
Everyone understood his mind. Lushu touched the threshold of the extremely strong law, cutting off one arm of the demon beast. This is a good thing, but it's still far from enough!
As long as it becomes a ghost and goes back to hell for some recuperation, this demon beast will be able to return perfectly intact in just a few days!
Alas...
The dead monster is indeed a headache!
"Brother!"
The Pope and Su Tianhe both looked worried, but Dan Dan suddenly spoke up in his mind, "It seems like someone mentioned... Oh, it was Dan Dan's first master! Dan Dan can't remember what he looks like, but he seemed to have said something like this: When a person dies, they become a ghost!"
Nonsense! Of course people become ghosts after they die!
Ye Huan casually responded with an "uh-huh" and didn't take it to heart.
Ke Dandan continued: "It seems like there's another sentence... Ah yes, it goes like this: Humans have dual souls, and ghosts are also divided into yang souls and yin souls. Yang souls are reincarnated into the cycle of rebirth, while yin souls either ascend to heaven or descend into hell!"
"Ghosts have a distinction between yang souls and yin souls...... Yin souls are the ones that enter hell..."
"Cheers!"
After thinking for a moment, Ye Huan hadn't sworn in a long time, but this time she couldn't help but loudly scolded, "Dandan, you are my savior!"
He said, no longer caring about etiquette, tore off a piece of cloth from the Pope's body, wrapped it around his own face, and then checked himself, estimating that the demon beast would not be able to recognize him immediately, excitedly saying: "Your Majesty, Su Lao, you guys help me hold down the fort, I'll take care of this demon beast!"
You!?!
The Vatican's numerous strongmen tried for two months and couldn't catch this demon beast, yet you, Ye Huan, dare to say that you can do it!?
The Pope absolutely doesn't believe it! But Ye Huan has already rushed into the martial arts arena, pounding on the edge of the stage and shouting loudly, "Lushou, give me a chance, let his eyes be on me, quick, let his eyes be on me!"
"An eye?" Lushu was still astonished by his own transformation and only reacted after a moment of distraction. "Huan Ge, how long will it take?!"
"Just one second!" Ye Huan raised a finger, "Give me one second and I'll take down this demon beast!"
Wow!
A black goat pendant hung down from his left wrist!
