The "Taoist Heart" also had an opposite, which could be called the "Devil Heart". The stronger a person's body was, the stronger their genetic desires would be. This was the inevitable evolution of all things. It was a competition between consciousness and instinct. If one indulged their desires too much, they would be occupied by the Devil Heart. However, one could not deliberately suppress their desires. Otherwise, it would violate the principle of Taoism and nature.
Luo Kai tried and found that he could not calm his body and mind down. He sighed secretly. If this world was still the same as before, he would probably stay away from the mortal world and pursue a higher Taoism. Because the mortal world's love, money, power, and so on were not worth mentioning compared to the promotion of life level.
He stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, staring at the bright city. Suddenly, his heart moved. The darkness expanded his perception without limit. Under the cover of the night, some dark shadows came out from the dark corners of the city. The tentacles that occasionally stretched out were very eye-catching. The underground sewer also moved frequently.
The strange creatures from the deep sea were hiding among the humans. Now the human city had become like this?
His face became gloomy, and an uncontrollable killing intent rose from his heart. He released a huge pressure. The Blade of Severance beside him felt the killing intent of its master and buzzed excitedly.
In the bedroom, Yuan Huixin suddenly felt an indescribable tremor. She sat up in horror and looked at the living room. The man had already jumped down from the window.
This luxurious suite was on the top floor of the Strong Wind Winery. It was nearly 20 stories high. Luo Kai fell rapidly, and the falling speed gradually increased. The originally empty air became sticky, and the friction between his body and the air formed a purple flame. He smashed onto the ground like a meteor.
The hard concrete floor was smashed into a big pit. He jumped up and flashed into a small alley not far away. There were a few humanoid monsters with tentacles crawling there. The crescent-shaped snow-white blade flashed, and the tentacle monsters had no time to react and were crushed into pieces by the power of the blade. The power of the blade was too strong, and the residual force shook the wall and cracked it.
Luo Kai pounced on the next target expressionlessly. Under the enhancement of the Dark Night, no creature could escape his perception, whether it was underground or in a dark corner. He shuttled through various dark alleys, and wherever he went, tentacles flew. The bloody massacre began to spread.
Just as he was about to kill, the small teams of the Body Arts Association in the city appeared one after another. So many strange creatures from the deep sea had appeared in Shang Jing City, of course, they could not escape their eyes. However, these strange creatures were extremely cunning. They lurked underground during the day and only showed up at night. Once they were surrounded, they would immediately burrow. The complicated sewer system in the city had become their nest.
The strange creatures from the deep sea had long spread parasites in human cities. These tentacles were the first batch of parasites that hatched. The research institute had already developed a chemical agent to flush the sewers to force them out. However, before they could do anything, someone had already killed these strange creatures tonight.
Luo Kai's movements were very loud and quickly attracted attention. A few figures flew towards him. His eyes narrowed slightly. He was too lazy to talk to these people. His body continued to speed up, and after a few twists and turns in the street, he shook them off and entered a small shabby building.
A monster stood in the corridor. It was completely different from the tentacles in front of him. It was more like an upright lizard. Its whole body was covered in a layer of pitch black. Scales and bone spurs protruded from its back. Its mouth was flattened outwards, revealing eerie fangs.
When the lizard saw him, it had no intention of running away. It let out a hoarse roar and charged straight at him.
One man and one monster collided, and the sound of metal clashing continued. The lizard monster's claws were extremely sharp, and every part of its body could be attacked. Whether it was its head, the bone spurs on its body, or the tail behind it, it did not dodge the sword at all. It used every part of its body to attack wildly. For a moment, Luo Kai was flustered.
Every time the two of them exchanged blows, it was accompanied by a clang, and the walls of the narrow corridor were torn apart.
The residents in the building were all awakened. Some hurriedly ran away, while others picked up all kinds of weapons to check. Nowadays, the path of martial arts was popular, and the people were extremely valiant. Even ordinary people had very good physiques. However, the man and the monster fighting in the corridor were too fast. It was dazzling to see, and there was no way to get involved.
This lizard monster's body was unbelievably hard, and it had an extremely terrifying dynamic vision. It was good at capturing fast-moving objects. No matter how fast Luo Kai's sword was, it was blocked by its hard claws.
However, it was impossible for this monster to hurt him. For a moment, they were in a stalemate. The sound of the fierce battle attracted a lot of attention. A large number of armed soldiers and physical warrior squads gathered here.
One man and one monster began to use their trump card. Luo Kai's body slightly expanded, and the blade trembled violently. There was a faint sound of thunder in the air.
And the lizard monster doubled in size. Bone spurs protruded from its skin and covered its whole body. It became even more ferocious, like a huge spiked ball.
Luo Kai held the sword with both hands. He took a deep breath, and his muscles trembled. Layers of strength were pushed to his arms. With a roar, he chopped down with the sword.
"Boom!" A thunderous explosion resounded. The hard body of the lizard monster could no longer resist the attack. The hard bone armor on its chest instantly shattered, and it was directly split in half.
Luo Kai stomped on the ground and disappeared into the night. The tentacle monsters that appeared in the city were very weak. They were completely incomparable to the one he had encountered before. When he used the Canglang Energy, it would definitely cause a resonance between heaven and earth. The movement was too big, so he had not used it yet.
The most troublesome thing was that he was being followed by people from the Body Arts Association. There were people all around him.
"What the hell!"
Countless bullets of various colors chased after his figure. The bullets shuttled back and forth around him, but none of them could hit him.
Luo Kai grew impatient. His muscles trembled, and the Severing Edge buzzed. A sound wave that ordinary people could not hear covered the surrounding area.
The Body Warriors that surrounded him only felt their blood begin to boil. Their heartbeats suddenly accelerated, and even their internal organs seemed to have begun to tremble. The stronger ones were still fine. They only staggered and fell to the ground. The weaker ones let out a muffled groan. Their bodies trembled, and blood seeped out of their mouths and noses.
The invisible sound wave only lasted for a moment. The paralyzed people gradually recovered. They struggled to stand up. Their faces were all pale, and their eyes were filled with shock.
Luo Kai's killing intent faded. He lightly returned to the Gale House and climbed up to the suite on the top floor.
Yuan Huixin was standing by the window. When she saw him, she was shocked and took a few steps back in fear.
Luo Kai was still somewhat annoyed. Seeing this, he said in a muffled voice, "Stop pretending. I don't want to know about your business. Just don't bother me." He walked into the bathroom.
Yuan Huixin was stunned. Only now did she realize that her sister's trick had been seen through. Anger flashed in her eyes as she inwardly said, "One day, you'll fall into my hands. At that time, I'll let you know how powerful I am."
