Chapter 255: Design | Trận Vấn Trường Sinh
Trận Vấn Trường Sinh - Updated on May 14, 2025
At the forest edge, the battle between Bald Dharma and Mo Shan continued. Bald Dharma couldn’t win and couldn’t run away, originally thinking his life wouldn’t last long.
But after fighting a few more rounds, he unexpectedly discovered that this demon hunter master wasn’t using deadly force against him. The cultivator secretly using strange magic also only used trapping spells to hold him, not killing spells to take his life. These two people didn’t seem to have any intention of killing him.
Bald Dharma let out a breath, then immediately felt ashamed and angry in his heart. They were just playing with him! They neither killed nor released him, like hunters toying with their prey. This was complete mockery and humiliation!
“This is simply too much!” Bald Dharma was furious.
Bald Dharma didn’t want to sit and wait for death. One moment he used talismans, the next he pretended to be no match, trying every means to seize an opportunity to escape. But no matter how many times he tried to escape, he would ultimately be fixed in place by the water prison technique, all his efforts instantly turning into bubbles. In the face of Mo Hua’s water prison technique, his schemes were completely useless.
Bald Dharma was again shocked and angry. Exactly who was this hidden cultivator? Every move he made was under his control, not allowing even a single chance of escape. Besides shock and anger, Bald Dharma was also doubtful and puzzled in his heart: “Things have already reached this point, why don’t these two kill me? What exactly do they want?”
Bald Dharma and Mo Shan had been entangled in a fight for a long time. Before long, his peripheral vision again caught sight of two figures approaching from afar, which were Zhang Lan and Lu Hui.
Bald Dharma’s heart grew even colder: “It’s over, this time I can’t escape at all.”
In the forest, Mo Hua’s eyes also brightened. Trapping Bald Dharma with the water prison technique was something he had practiced several times and had gradually become skilled at. Now he even felt a bit bored. Even a cat hunting a mouse gets tired after playing for a while. He was waiting for Lu Hui, and now, the prey had finally arrived.
Mo Hua smiled slightly. Zhang Lan and Lu Hui had searched for a long time in the mountains. At this moment, seeing Mo Shan entangled in a fight with Bald Dharma, both of them were invigorated. They sped up their movement techniques and in several flashes, they rushed over. The three of them formed a triangular formation to surround Bald Dharma.
Bald Dharma’s face showed despair for a time, and he indignantly said: “You bunch of Dao Court Division’s running dogs, must you be so thorough in exterminating me?”
Zhang Lan cursed: “Aren’t you talking nonsense? You beast, you should have died long ago!”
Bald Dharma’s face twitched. Lu Hui’s gaze narrowed, and he asked: “Bald Dharma, I’ll ask you again, was the young master of the Kong family abducted by you?”
Bald Dharma frowned, “What Kong family young master?”
“Half a month ago, didn’t you rob a merchant team?”
“I’ve robbed many merchant teams, how do I know which one you’re talking about?”
Lu Hui’s eyelid twitched, “Then I’ll ask you again, after you robbed the merchant team, how did you deal with those cultivators?”
Bald Dharma’s mouth curved into a sinister smile, “That depends on whether they were male or female. Males were killed on the spot, and females were played with and then killed.” Things had come to this point; he couldn’t run away anyway. He had committed crimes, and it was a death sentence for him with the Dao Court Division, so there was nothing to hide in these words.
Lu Hui’s heart sank. If that was the case, then that Kong young master was likely killed by Bald Dharma in confusion, not even having had time to state his name.
Zhang Lan then said: “Let’s make a move, we’ll ask him after we catch him and take him to the Dao Court Division.” After saying that, he condensed a water sword technique with his fingers and, no longer wasting words, directly attacked Bald Dharma.
Lu Hui also drew his sword and thrust it towards Bald Dharma’s heart. Mo Shan’s gaze flickered, remembering Mo Hua’s instructions. When making a move, he should pretend his physical strength was insufficient and make his move one step slower. The three people’s surrounding circle instantly produced a flaw because of Mo Shan’s delay.
Bald Dharma, rich in killing experience, immediately seized this flaw, his expression wildly joyful. He was originally certain to die this time, and even if he didn’t die, he would fall into the hands of the Dao Court Division. He didn’t expect that in his moment of despair, Mo Shan’s mistake would give him a ray of life.
Bald Dharma dodged Zhang Lan’s water sword technique, exchanged another sword with Lu Hui, then borrowed the force to retreat, seizing the flaw between the three of them. He desperately used the wind escape technique, his body flashing, and rushed out of the three people’s encirclement.
Having rushed out of the encirclement, Bald Dharma was still not at ease. He was afraid the cultivator hidden in the dark would still use magic to lock him. But afterward, he discovered that the hidden cultivator didn’t make a move, and didn’t use that strange magic either!
“Good opportunity!” Bald Dharma was overjoyed. A fine light flashed in his eyes, and he ran wildly, wind power entwining around his body, leaving a trail of afterimages behind him.
Lu Hui “hissed” and looked discontentedly at Mo Shan, then used his body technique and chased after Bald Dharma. Bald Dharma had killed the Kong young master, so he absolutely could not be allowed to run away.
Zhang Lan looked at Mo Shan with some doubt. In his impression, Mo Shan had experienced hundreds of battles and would not make such a low-level mistake. Then he saw Mo Shan give him an eye signal and subtly glance at the distant Lu Hui.
Zhang Lan was startled and slowly came to understand. The corners of his mouth also revealed a hint of a malicious smile. At the same time, Mo Hua also walked out of the forest. The three of them exchanged glances, all understanding each other’s intentions, then their bodies flashed, and they chased after Bald Dharma and Lu Hui one after another.
Lu Hui, who was rushing at full speed using his body technique, was cursing incessantly in his heart. “Surrounding this Bald Dharma with three people, and he still managed to run away. These demon hunters are really unbelievably stupid.” However, this was also good. As long as he caught up to Bald Dharma first and successfully subdued him, or killed him directly, then the merit for this time would be his. He would both complete the Dao Court Division’s task and avenge the Kong young master. The Dao Court Division’s reward went without saying, and the Kong family would also owe him a favor, with no small benefits. Lu Hui’s heart was fervent, and he put even more effort into chasing after Bald Dharma.
Mo Hua and the other two hung back at a distance, neither going forward to meet Lu Hui nor staying far away, allowing Bald Dharma to escape. If Lu Hui lost the chase, Mo Hua would still kindly let Zhang Lan point the way for Lu Hui. With Mo Hua’s divine sense locking onto him, Bald Dharma couldn’t run away no matter what.
Just like this, Lu Hui and Bald Dharma were one chasing and one running. After a full half hour, Lu Hui finally intercepted Bald Dharma and started fighting with him. Mo Hua and the other two then stopped in the distance, not going forward.
Bald Dharma, who had fought bitterly with Mo Shan and then run with all his strength, was already at the end of his tether at this time. Lu Hui’s spiritual power had also been consumed quite a bit, but it was much better than Bald Dharma’s. Only he was a bit doubtful in his heart, this Bald Dharma’s body technique was clearly very good, why couldn’t he always escape? However, he didn’t have time to think about these things; now he needed to take down Bald Dharma as soon as possible.
The two of them fought with full effort for over ten rounds, then victory and defeat gradually became apparent. Lu Hui’s sword struck Bald Dharma’s shoulder. Bald Dharma knelt on the ground, knowing that he was already a flickering candle in the wind and couldn’t hold on. Unwilling in his heart, he angrily drew his knife and chopped towards Lu Hui’s chest. But he also knew in his heart that he was tired from the long battle, his drawing of the knife was slow, and this knife would definitely not hit Lu Hui.
Lu Hui also smiled contemptuously. Bald Dharma’s knife posed no threat; as long as he took one step back, he could dodge this knife unharmed. Lu Hui lightly tapped his foot, preparing to retreat, yet he didn’t notice the cold light flashing in Mo Hua’s eyes far away. He gently grabbed with his small hand, and a spiritual power chain suddenly appeared, locking him in place!
Lu Hui, who was halfway through his retreat, suddenly discovered that he couldn’t move. In an instant, he was so frightened that his soul scattered! Before he could come back to his senses, Bald Dharma’s knife chopped onto his chest. This knife broke the soft armor on his chest, and the blade chopped into his chest, blood instantly spurting out.
