The benefit of the knife is in cutting.

In addition, there are other techniques such as provoking, stabbing, intercepting, blocking, collapsing, slashing, wiping, belting, and wrapping, which are brave and fast, imposing and powerful, like a tiger rushing for food.

The essence of this technique is to break the knife, to fight heavy with lightness, and use speed to fight the slow. 

Chen Luo’s mind flashed the essence of the “broken knife style” in a flash, stepping out one step, the wooden branch in his hand made thirty-six changes in an instant, and then the thirty-six changes merged into one move. The mantis’s two-armed blades were already in sight, and Chen Luo’s branch stabbed from an unbelievable angle, hitting the space node where the mantis was wielding its double-blade, making its rhythm slightly stagnant.

Just at this slight delay, Chen Luo’s wooden branches swept left and right, and the mantis’s double blades were shaken apart in an instant, and a window of opportunity opened wide. Chen Luo propped himself up, mustering all his strength, and the wooden branch tapped on the mantis’s chest. The wooden branch was shattered by Chen Luo’s enormous power, leaving only a seven-inch-long remnant in Chen Luo’s hand. It was shaped like a dagger.

Chen Luo didn’t stop and sent out his right hand. The twig that was like a dagger was directly inserted into the mantis’s chest under Chen Luo’s tremendous force, and green juice flowed out for a while.

It all happened in the blink of an eye. The mantis looked down at his chest in surprise, but Chen Luo raised his right leg again and put a heavy knee on the mantis’s abdomen. The mantis bent down like a conditioned reflex. Chen Luo’s elbow aimed at the mantis’s head.

The mantis was hit hard by this elbow and stumbled to the end. Chen Luo pounced at the mantis, rode on the mantis, pressed his knees against the mantis’s double blades, and slammed the mantis’s head punch by punch.

One punch, one punch, one punch…

The green juice splashed and shot Chen Luo in the face. Only then did Chen Luo stop, looking at the mantis whose head had been hit by a hammer, he suddenly felt sick, and quickly stepped back a few steps away from the corpse.

”Zhong Kui!”

Zhong Kui’s figure appeared behind Chen Luo: “Master…”

”Go and see if he’s dead?”

Zhong Kui hurriedly floated over, stretched out his hand, and the iron hook flew out from his sleeve and penetrated into the mantis’s body. After a while, a green light group was pulled out.

Zhong Kui: “My lord, he has completely died, and his soul is in my hands.”

”Can it be controlled?” Chen Luo asked. Zhong Kui can only target ghosts now. If he can control the mantis, he will have a cannon fodder to use as a scout!

Zhong Kui shook his head slightly: “Reporting back to the lord, this soul is congenitally incomplete, it should have been refined long ago, and it cannot be regarded as a ghost. Even if it is controlled, it will soon dissipate.”

Chen Luo wiped the green juice remaining on his hands on his body. He was disgusted and waved his hands in disgust: “Eat, eat it, see what information you can derive from it…”

Zhong Kui nodded, stretched out his hand, and grabbed the ball of light, just like eating an apple, he swallowed the ball of light in a few mouthfuls.

”Have you found anything?” Chen Luo asked.

Zhong Kui closed his eyes and digested it for a moment, then said, “My lord, this soul has indeed been refined, and a lot of information has been covered up, so I don’t know much.”

”What do you know?” Chen Luo walked to the corpse, intending to take off the two-bladed arms as weapons. Since the mantis were chasing after him, Lian Ai might appear at any time, so he had to be prepared.

”Back to the lord, this demon is a Gu demon refined by the Gu family. It was rewarded by its real master to the Lian Ai demon girl. The demon girl is currently injured and is healing on the spot.”

”Oh, is that so?” Chen Luo looked happy, which was good news, “Do you know how long it takes to heal?”

Zhong Kui shook his head: “I don’t have time, but with this monster’s understanding of the witch, it won’t take too long.” ”

Chen Luo was about to tear off the mantis’s arm, but found that the mantis’s corpse was rapidly decaying, and even the threateningly cold double-edged blades turned yellow and curled up.

”F*ck, it won’t give you the chance to touch the corpse…” Chen Luo scolded and then asked, “What is the Gu Sect? Also, can you know the specific strength of that Lian Ai?”

”Gu Sect is an ancient sect, they worship the Gu God and use the Gu insects as the source of power. There are ten grades in the Gu Sect, with the lowest being the ninth grade and the highest being the super-grade. Gu God is a super grade. “

”In this mantis’s memory, there is no more information about the Gu sect. However, it does mean that among the first nine ranks of the Gu sect, the first three ranks are one level, which is roughly equivalent to the Confucianist realm of the Confucian sect. Breaking through the seventh rank a year ago and stepping into the sixth rank Gu is equivalent to the Confucian sect crossing the first mountain and sea of the Fuzi realm.”

”It’s just one level higher than Master Li and Ji Zhong!” Chen Luo secretly compared in his heart, and immediately ran forward quickly

”My lord, what’s going on?” Zhong Kui quickly caught up with Chen Luo.

”What are you asking for, hurry up and run! I can’t beat that demon girl if she catches up…”



Just as Chen Luo killed the mantis, the silkworm cocoon where Lian Ai was sitting suddenly shook slightly, only to hear a low voice coming from inside——

”Garbage!”

Only to see that the silkworm cocoon slowly floated up and started to rotate out of thin air. During the rotation, the silk on the silkworm cocoon turned black and fell off one by one.

Obviously, Lian Ai gave up a price to speed up the healing.



”Everyone, see clearly, this is the portrait of the Lord of Wan An!” In a solemn magistrate office, a fat man in auspicious cloud clothes with a cold snow knife hanging from his waist held the portrait of Chen Luo in his hand, facing the neatly standing citizens below. Everyone said, “According to Wenchang Pavilion’s calculations, the Lord of Wan An was held hostage by demons, and it is likely that he was within a radius of 500 miles outside Zhongjing City. We have quickly dispatched some staff to search for the lord.”

At this time, one person came out and cupped his hands and asked: “Lord Qianying, Fuyun Mountain is also within this range, do you want to go into the mountain to investigate?”

The fat man frowned and pondered for a moment: “Fuyun Mountain… Send a reward, let the monsters in Fuyun Mountain move, and tell them that the opportunity to serve the court has come. 

”Yes.” The person who asked the question returned to the team. Fatty waved his hand, and everyone turned around and walked out. Everyone was wearing a white cloak behind him, and the word “town” was written on the cloak.

The fat man looked down at Chen Luo’s portrait again, and muttered to himself: “Little lord, don’t worry. My Zhenxuan department will come to rescue you…”



The sky gradually darkened, and he walked for another day without touching the ground. Even though Chen Luo had already entered the Invigorating the Meridians realm, he still felt tired.

Chen Luo stopped. He suspected that the valley had no end. Suddenly, his ears moved and he heard the sound of gurgling water.

”There is water!” Chen Luo was overjoyed, this valley is vertically distributed, if there is a flowing water source, it means that it is an exit. Chen Luo was suddenly full of strength again, gritted his teeth again, and ran towards the front of the sound of running water.

After running for a few minutes, Chen Luo saw a corner appear in the valley, and when he turned around the corner, the light in front of him suddenly became clear. It is no longer an immutable cliff on both sides, but a verdant and majestic mountain forest.

What makes Chen Luo happy the most is that a crystal river is right in front of him.

Chen Luo shouted, took off his clothes while running, jumped high, and fiercely plunged into the river. The coolness of the running water nourished Chen Luo’s body, and Chen Luo felt that the pickled things on his body were taken away by the river water, and he felt relieved.

”It’s perfect if you can arrange a bath!” Chen Luo floated on his back on the river, suddenly frowned, and turned over quickly. Just as he turned over, where he was originally, a water column suddenly shot into the sky…

Chen Luo looked vigilantly in all directions and finally locked his eyes on a small tree on the shore. There are a pair of big eyes, blinking, and looking at Chen Luo…
