"Hissā"
Lu Zheng couldnāt help but suck in a breath of cold air.
How arrogant this personās tone is!
"Who exactly are you?"
Lu Zheng heard something different from his words, so he asked in a focused voice, "You are not from the Great Jing Dynasty?"
The old monk nodded, "I, the old monk, am not from the Great Jing Dynasty."
Shen Yingās eyes flashed, and she immediately said, "Are you from the Southern Border?"
"Amitabha Buddha!"
The old monk pressed his palms together but didnāt speak, clearly implying consent.
The five women of Hua Yixing exchanged glances, and they couldnāt help but sharply inhale, for an Abnormal Person from the Southern Border entering the Jing Dynasty was not something they could handle.
Lu Zhengās eyes narrowed; just now, when the old monk killed Ji Zizhen, he released a trace of Qi. Though not weak, it was not strong enough that I couldnāt deal with it.
Why is he so confident? Could he have deliberately concealed his strength earlier? Is there a need?
"You are really straightforward."
Lu Zhengās eyes flickered as he subtly probed, "But where does your confidence come from, to casually claim to take us all down in one go? We are not ordinary people; if we all charge at you, you might not fare well."
"Heheheā"
The old monk was directly amused by Lu Zhengās words, "Amitabha, a few demons with several decades of Dao Practice, and you few wild fox Zen believers, still want to charge all at once?"
"Wild fox Zen?"
"Hehehe, Iāll teach you a lesson. If you had turned to flee when the old monk had just arrived, maybe one or two of you could have escaped. But now..."
"Hmm?"
Lu Zhengās gaze flickered, he looked around, but found nothing.
"You havenāt prepared anything?"
"To deal with you, do I need to prepare anything in advance?" The old monk shook his head and laughed, "Consider yourselves lucky. I will let you experience the Paradise Heavenly Maidenās Bewitching Divine Realm.
The few Celestial Maidens will allow you to adapt in advance, and as for you, you can also enjoy it. Such a good thing isnāt often available afterward."
With these words, the old monk flipped his palm, and a Spiritual Light appeared from his hand, then exploded instantly. The rays of light spread out, instantly covering the Five Beauties Manor.
In just a moment, Lu Zheng felt his vision blur, as if he had arrived at a place that seemed like...
Heaven.
With carved towers and jade steps, wine pools and forests of meat, warblers singing and swallows dancing, red and green adorning.
Dozens of Celestial Maidens danced in the air, some plucked the Yaoqin, others played the pipa, some waved sleeves in light dance, others sang softly.
A constant stream of spiritually alluring power invaded Lu Zhengās mind, making him enjoy it immensely, trying to make him succumb.
All around were beautiful women of various shapes and sizes, slim waists and plump forms, all tender and fair, approaching Lu Zheng, embracing him, leaning on him, trying to make him fall.
"Master~"
"Lord~"
"Come on~"
"Want me~"
"Good guy!" Lu Zheng was stunned and couldnāt help but say, "You sure understand pretty well! Impressive!"
Lu Zheng swallowed, and under the old monkās expectant expression, he did not succumb, nor did he express any resistance. Instead, he seemed to be observing and contemplating something.
The old monk frowned, strengthening the allure of the spiritual power, then looked at the few women.
Compared to Lu Zheng, the women experienced all sorts of sensations from the Celestial Maidens, trying to make them integrate with them.
What shocked the old monk was that although the majority of the women frowned in resistance, two of them appeared quite relaxed.
One was attempting to break the spell, making the old monk increase his power again, while the other held a little girl beside her, helping the girl resist the invasion of the Bewitching Divine Realm, standing calmly in place as if waiting for something.
"Hmm?"
The old monk squinted his eyes, "You do have some skill? But itās a pity. Since you are already in the old manās Bewitching Divine Realm, donāt think you can escape!"
Moments later, Lu Zhengās behavior caught the old monkās attention again.
Lu Zheng nodded and then shook his head, "Quite good, many places I can learn from, but still too few transformations."
Old Monk: ???
After a pause, Lu Zheng looked around, thought for a while, and pointed at a Celestial Maiden, saying, "Look, sheās already kneeling, a tether should be imagined around her neck, hanging a chain from it, crawl slowly over here with her mouth holding it."
"And this one, the expression on her face carries a hint of dominance, then her unique feature should be accentuated, holding a horsewhip or something in hand." Lu Zheng pointed at another Celestial Maiden.
"And this one, having grasped a bit of mystery and enigma, then should further enhance that, covering those spots entirely while the other places reveal the enigma more distinctly, so as to fully maximize the allure."
Old Monk, "..."
"Moreover, your spiritual penetration is far too obvious." Lu Zheng grasped the spiritual power invading his mind, "Appearing right away, arenāt you exposing your intentions by bluntly saying that youāre using spiritual power to invade, alerting the other party immediately?
Clearly, these unique Paradise Celestial Maidens are available for biological lure first, and once the opposite is resisting the allure of these Maidens wholeheartedly, stealthily add the spiritual power for psychological lure afterward.
Oh, and, your spell name, Paradise Heavenly Maidenās Bewitching Divine Realm, are you so afraid others wouldnāt know this spellās effect includes bewitching, deliberately stating it out in the name openly?
Tsk tsk tsk, I thought you were an old fiend, now it seems you are more like a simpleton."
Old Monk, "..."
Though uncertain about what "simpleton" means specifically, the old monk understands the term "simple silly", which means Lu Zheng is mocking him, calling him foolish!
So, who exactly are you? How can you possibly know so much?
In overwhelming shock, Lu Zhengās performance also sounded alarms deep within the old monkās heart.
Originally thinking it was only a few little demons and ghosts from a remote township, many Abnormal People they met were simply profligates with no heritage. Once his Paradise Heavenly Maidenās Bewitching Divine Realm was unleashed, wouldnāt they fall into his grasp easily?
But just the woman in the pink outfit shows the signs of breaking free, not to mention Lu Zheng here, so relaxed and carefree, treating his Bewitching Divine Realm as if nonexistent?
The old monkās heart was already set on retreating, yet with the Bewitching Divine Realm not broken and the few women not yet fully succumbing, he was reluctant to withdraw just like that.
"Alright, Iāve seen enough of your spell, half like a spell and half like a magical treasure, called the Paradise Heavenly Maidenās Bewitching Divine Realm. Since youāre not giving up, I wonāt be polite either."
Lu Zheng sighed with some reluctance, giving a last glance around, then waved his hand. A cloud qi gathered, while the spiritual power in his mind operated, activating the Divinity Transformation Technique.
Double action!
"Pop!"
With a soft sound, like a soap bubble being popped, the Paradise Heavenly Maidenās Bewitching Divine Realm shattered instantly, turning into numerous rays, retreating back into the old monkās palm.
