Chapter 78 One Win and One Loss
Guided by Lu Linglong's slender fingers, the seven golden swords moved as if they were her own arms, transforming into seven deadly golden streaks of light that relentlessly attacked her two opponents!
Sword flashes darted about, the shrill whistling sound tearing through the air incessantly, weaving under the moonlight into a constantly shrinking, chilling web of death.
At first, the two were able to dodge and weave through the gaps in the sword net with their exquisite footwork and rich experience. Their figures were like ghosts as they darted and turned in the limited open space in front of the small building, narrowly avoiding each stab.
The golden sword struck the air, carving deep marks into the ground, tree trunks, and stone benches, sending stone chips and wood scraps flying everywhere.
However, Lu Linglong focused her mind and became increasingly skilled in controlling the sword formation, which gradually became more and more harmonious and its blockade more and more tight.
Soon, the two realized they had nowhere to hide, their vital points enveloped by the chilling sword intent.
"No retreating!" The Bajiquan master's eyes flashed with fierce light. He shouted and stopped dodging. Facing a golden sword that was piercing straight into his heart, he advanced instead of retreating. He twisted his right fist to generate force, and his arm muscles tightened like steel wire. With true power, his fist tip shone with a dark metallic light. With the force of splitting mountains and shattering rocks, he slammed into the side of the sword!
"clang-!!"
The clash of fist and sword produced a deafening sound like a great bell!
The golden sword trembled violently, its light flickering, and the runes flowing on its surface became chaotic.
The Bajiquan master was also violently shaken, his fists were torn open and bleeding profusely, but he gritted his teeth and did not retreat an inch!
Almost simultaneously, the Xingyiquan master also made a decision. His single arm suddenly shot out like a crane's neck, his five fingers joined together like a beak, the black true energy gathered at his fingertips condensed to the extreme, carrying a ruthless force that could pierce through metal and stone, like a real iron awl, precisely "pecking" at the seven-inch mark on the spine of another golden sword!
"Snap!"
A crisp cracking sound rang out, and the golden sword shattered, turning into countless golden light spots that scattered across the sky!
Meanwhile, on the other side.
"Exceptional talent—I never imagined that Wudang Mountain would produce a disciple like you. If that person knew, he would definitely have to take you as his disciple. With the inheritance of two schools, your future is limitless." The black-clad leader's voice remained calm, but the meaning it contained was much deeper. "Unfortunately, you shouldn't have gotten involved in this mess."
Wang Ye's expression was solemn. The Qimen formation beneath his feet slowly rotated, and his aura connected with heaven and earth: "Whether we should have stepped in or not is too late to say now. Senior's methods are superb, but it's probably not that easy for you to take us down."
"Is that so? Getting old. When I was your age, I was just like you..." The leader in black chuckled, his wide black robe fluttering without wind. "Kan Character - Water Bullet."
He didn't form any hand seals; he simply moved his mind, and the dense moisture in the air instantly condensed into dozens of fist-sized, rapidly spinning, dark blue water spheres above Wang Ye's head. The next moment, they shot down like powerful arrows!
Each water sphere contained immense force and bone-chilling cold, sealing off all of Wang Ye's room to maneuver.
Wang Ye's pupils contracted slightly, and the Qimen Dunjia formation beneath his feet spun rapidly: "Gen Character - Earth Dragon Soars!"
The ground beside him suddenly rose up, and thick earth and rocks rose and closed in like a living barrier, protecting him inside.
"Not bad, not bad."
The azure water spheres bombarded the earthen and stone walls one after another, producing dull thuds. A chilling aura permeated the air, and a layer of white frost quickly condensed on the surface of the earth and stone, but ultimately failed to penetrate the thick defense.
However, just as Wang Ye was defending against the water bullets, the figure of the black-clad leader vanished from the spot like a ghost!
It wasn't that the speed was too fast, but rather that it was some kind of escape technique similar to "Earth Immortal" or even more advanced!
A warning bell rang in Wang Ye's heart. Almost without thinking, he pushed off with his feet and lunged to the side!
"laugh--!"
The earthen and stone wall where he had stood was neatly cut in half by a silent, jet-black crack, the cross-section as smooth as a mirror.
The figure of the black-clad leader slowly emerged from the shadows behind Wang Ye, and a wisp of black Qi, condensed to its extreme, slowly dissipated from his fingertips.
"Not slow reaction," the leader in black commented, as if it were just a casual test.
Wang Ye broke out in a cold sweat.
The opponent's application of Qimen Dunjia was simply divine, deeply understanding the divine meanings of "Qi" and "Dun," making it silent and impossible to defend against.
If it weren't for his keen senses and his exceptional sensitivity to spatial changes due to his mastery of the Feng Hou Qi Men technique, his opponent would likely have succeeded with that attack.
"Linglong! Be careful of his escape technique!" Wang Ye warned urgently, fearing that the other party would abandon him. If he were Lu Linglong, he would probably be captured in one move!
Wang Ye used all his Qimen skills to try to lock onto the opponent's body shape and energy.
the other side.
Although the masters of Bajiquan and Xingyiquan each broke through one sword, they were also affected by the backlash, their blood and qi surging, and their movements inevitably slowed down for a moment.
In that split second of opening, the remaining five golden swords, like sharks smelling blood, suddenly accelerated and changed direction, thrusting from extremely tricky angles! Before the swords even arrived, the condensed sharp sword energy already stung the skin!
"Pfft!"
"Snap!"
The sounds of a sharp weapon piercing flesh and bones shattering rang out almost simultaneously!
The Bajiquan master used all his strength to break the sword, but his old strength was gone. Facing the three swords that came suddenly, he only had time to barely twist his body to avoid his heart, but a golden sword pierced his side abdomen!
The sword pierced through his body, bringing with it a spray of warm blood! He let out a suppressed groan, his face instantly turning deathly pale.
The Xingyiquan master fared even worse. He had exhausted his old strength and had not yet generated new strength. Although he tried his best to dodge, his left arm was still grazed by a golden sword!
However, the golden sword was far sharper than he had imagined. It didn't just cut him; it sliced off his left forearm and hand, along with his wrist, as easily as a hot knife through butter! The severed arm flew off, and blood gushed from the wound like a fountain!
He was in so much pain that his vision blurred and he almost fainted, but he managed to hold on thanks to the tenacity he had developed over the years.
Moreover, the excruciating pain and severe injuries aroused an even deeper ferocity in their bones!
"Break!" The Bajiquan master's eyes were bloodshot. He ignored the trembling golden sword still stuck in his abdomen and used his waist and abdominal muscles like steel to lock the sword in place to prevent further tearing.
He roared and swung his right fist again, with a desperate, suicidal momentum, slamming it hard into the hilt of the golden sword that had wounded him! At the same time, his left foot stomped like a giant axe against the blade of another golden sword that was attacking him!
Xingyiquan masters are also ruthless; they demonstrate astonishing resilience in life-or-death situations.
First, he used his right hand to strike several acupoints on his left shoulder with lightning speed, temporarily blocking the blood flow. Then, he took a deep breath, his chest caved in, and his entire upper body leaned back at an incredible angle, almost parallel to the ground—this was the Iron Bridge technique!
Two golden swords grazed his nose and vital areas of his chest and abdomen. The icy, bone-chilling sword energy made his skin tremble. The remaining sword light still left several deeper cuts on his jaw and abdomen, from which blood seeped out.
After the Iron Bridge move, he used his waist and abdomen to spring up like a taut spring. His single arm transformed from a claw into a fist, and a half-step collapsing fist containing all his life's power slammed into the blade of the last golden sword that was piercing his vitals!
He had been a powerful figure for many years, but had he ever been forced into such a sorry state by a seemingly delicate young girl?
"Bang! Bang! Crack! Crack!"
Amidst a series of explosions and shattering sounds, two more golden swords were smashed to pieces by their desperate, head-on, and injury-for-injury fighting style!
Four of the seven swords were gone, leaving only three slightly dimmed golden magic swords floating in mid-air.
The two were covered in blood and their breaths had weakened considerably, but their eyes were even more ferocious, like those of wolves.
They exchanged a glance; the tacit understanding forged through years of sharing life and death made all words seem superfluous.
The Bajiquan master took a deep breath and forcefully used his muscles to "squeeze" the golden sword that was piercing his abdomen out inch by inch. He casually threw it on the ground, and blood gushed out of the wound, but his waist and abdomen remained straight, like an iron tower nailed to the ground.
He stepped forward, facing the remaining three golden swords alone, and adopted the most violent "Tiger Climbing the Mountain" starting stance of Bajiquan, making his meaning clear - I will block them!
The Xingyiquan master understood immediately. With his single arm hanging down, his footwork became unusually light and unpredictable, like a venomous snake poised to strike.
Seeing that the opponent's momentum was even more tragic despite his serious injuries, Lu Linglong was slightly alarmed. She quickly focused her mind on controlling the remaining three swords, preparing to finish off the seriously injured Bajiquan master first.
Just as the three golden swords were about to launch another attack!
A Xingyiquan master has made a move!
He first subtly flicked and lifted a piece of broken rock on the ground with the toe of his injured left foot—"Whoosh—!"
A hard, angular rock, about the size of a fist, shot out like a crossbow bolt, tearing through the air with a sharp whistling sound, and flew straight at Lu Linglong's brow with lightning speed!
This move was completely unexpected, extremely insidious and vicious, and could only be used by someone with extensive combat experience!
After the stones were broken, the true power of the Xingyi Quan master was unleashed!
He extended his single arm forward, his remaining right hand with its five fingers spread wide like an eagle's claw, pouring all his strength, speed, and even his will to survive and kill into this single pounce!
The man followed the stone forward like a leech, relentlessly attacking Lu Linglong from behind the rubble! His objective was clear: to seize the moment when Lu Linglong was distracted by the rubble, to get close, capture, or kill her!
Lu Linglong's practical experience was ultimately shallow. How could she have expected that her opponent would have such a ruthless trick up their sleeve even when they were at such a disadvantage? The falling rocks were extremely insidious, and her brain didn't even have time to make a "dangerous" judgment!
A close call!
It was the Dharma Body that had already entered the "Minor Supernatural Power" realm that made the most instinctive reaction in the face of life-or-death crisis!
Her neck muscles tensed suddenly, and her head swung sharply to the right at a speed and angle that almost defied ergonomics!
"call--!"
The pebbles grazed her left temple, the sharp wind making her temple sting, and a few strands of her severed hair drifted down.
The terrifying feeling of being on the brink of life and death was like a bucket of ice water poured over her head. Lu Linglong's back was instantly soaked with cold sweat, and a surge of anger and fear welled up inside her.
Her eyes suddenly turned fierce, and her previously somewhat clumsy control, driven by intense emotions, became incredibly decisive at this moment!
With his right hand held together like a sword, he shouted in a clear voice, "Combine!"
Before she finished speaking, the remaining three floating golden swords, along with the four dim golden lights that had not completely dissipated after being broken on the ground, seemed to be drawn by an invisible force and suddenly converged in front of her!
Golden light surged forth, and sword energy soared into the sky!
The shattered light fragments, like rivers flowing into the sea, quickly merged into the three main swords.
The three swords trembled and hummed, attracting, approaching and overlapping each other—in a dazzling golden light, a huge magic sword about seven feet long and nearly one foot wide, its entire body seemingly forged from solid gold, with qi flowing and circulating on its surface, suddenly took shape!
As soon as the giant sword appeared, it exuded a heavy pressure and a chilling sword intent that was several times more powerful than the sum of the previous seven swords, and the surrounding air seemed to freeze and become heavy.
Lu Linglong raised her right arm slightly, her sword finger seemingly guiding the magnificent giant sword. Her eyes locked onto the Xingyi Quan master who was rushing towards her. Without the slightest hesitation, she slashed fiercely in front of her!
"cut--!"
The giant sword moved accordingly, transforming into a pure golden arc of light that stretched across the night moon, slashing forward with the force to split mountains and cleave peaks!
Wherever the sword light touched, an invisible, sharp energy carved a deep trench in the ground, and dust and gravel swirled wildly to both sides!
The Xingyiquan master was horrified! He was about to change his tactics and launch a strong attack when he never expected the opponent's counterattack to be so fierce and swift!
The golden arc of light covered an extremely wide area and moved at an unimaginable speed. At the critical moment of life and death, he unleashed all his potential, stomping his single leg against the ground and leaping backward like a startled flea!
However, it was still a fraction of a second too slow!
"Sizzle—!!"
The terrifying sound of cloth and flesh being cut by an extremely sharp object was exceptionally clear in the silent night.
The edge of the golden arc of light barely grazed his retreating figure.
"Ugh—!"
A piercing scream tore through the night sky! The Xingyi Quan master was sent flying like a rag doll, crashing heavily several feet away.
His right shoulder was empty—his only remaining right arm, severed at the shoulder, remained on the battlefield along with his left arm!
Even more horrifying was the gruesome wound that stretched from his chest to his abdomen, over a foot long and deep enough to expose the bone. Blood gushed out like a burst dam, instantly staining a large area of the ground red.
He collapsed to the ground, his body convulsing violently, barely breathing, and clearly losing all fighting ability.
In the blink of an eye, one person was crippled!
Lu Linglong flicked her sword finger, and the golden greatsword, whose light had dimmed slightly after the strike but whose power was still terrifying, spun nimbly in the air, its tip humming, and aimed at the Bajiquan master who was looking at his companion's miserable state with shock and anger.
Without any further words, Lu Linglong's eyes flashed with cold light, and she pointed her sword finger into the air.
"go!"
The golden greatsword emitted a deep, thunderous roar, no longer light and swift, but carrying a heavy, all-suppressing force and an unstoppable domineering power, like a divine spear of judgment thrown down, shooting towards the Bajiquan master!
Before the sword even arrived, the terrifying pressure of the sword caused his bones to groan in unbearable agony, and the ground beneath his feet cracked inch by inch!
The Bajiquan master's eyes widened in fury. He roared and poured all his life's power into his arms. His muscles swelled to their limit, and the veins under his skin bulged like earthworms. He crossed his arms to block in front of him, and his true power surged out wildly, forming a solid black shield of energy in front of him!
He stood firmly on his feet, adopting a stance as if he were about to shake a mountain, intending to rely on his physical body and cultivation to withstand this magnificent sword strike!
"boom!!!"
The golden greatsword slammed into the dark energy shield!
There was no stalemate, only swift and decisive victory!
The air shield lasted for less than half a second before bursting like a soap bubble!
The immense aura attached to the giant sword erupted like a volcano, instantly blasting away the crossed arms of the Bajiquan master who was blocking, and the sound of bones shattering could be clearly heard!
The defenses have been breached, and the central gate is wide open!
The golden greatsword plunged straight in, carrying its remaining force, and pierced deep below his right shoulder blade!
"puff!"
The sharp weapon made a dull thud as it entered flesh.
The immense impact sent the Bajiquan master's burly body flying backward with a loud bang, pinning him firmly to the gray-white brick exterior wall of an uninhabited annex building not far away!
The sword pierced through his body, embedded itself in the wall, and left him suspended in mid-air!
He coughed up blood and tried to struggle, but the sharp sword energy and suppressive power remaining on the greatsword continued to destroy his life force and strength. He could only let out a wheezing gasp, his eyes filled with disbelief, horror and despair.
The cold moonlight shone on the battlefield in front of the small building, which had suddenly become deathly silent.
From Lu Linglong combining her swords and striking to the giant sword nailing the target, the entire process took only a few breaths.
The two top military experts who had worked together seamlessly and were incredibly brave, almost driving Wang Ye to the brink of death, were completely crippled in the blink of an eye by this girl who they had initially not paid much attention to and even thought was somewhat "childish"!
Meanwhile, on the other side, the leader in black no longer used large-scale spells, but instead brought the intricacies of Qimen Dunjia to their fullest potential.
His figure was elusive, as if blending into the night and the breeze. Sometimes he would condense water into ice to launch a sneak attack at the Kan position, and sometimes he would trigger landmines to ambush at the Zhen position. More often, he would close the distance with his ghostly escape technique. The black energy at his fingertips was incomparably sharp, specifically designed to break through the body's protective barrier, leaving Wang Ye exhausted and with several shallow cuts on his body.
"This can't go on!" Wang Ye gritted his teeth, knowing he had to take a gamble.
He deliberately created an opening. When the leader in black reappeared from the Xun position using wind escape, and pointed a finger at his back, Wang Ye suddenly turned around without dodging or avoiding, and his hand seals changed at a speed beyond the limit!
"The character 'Kun' signifies quicksand!"
"The character '兑' (dui) signifies a quagmire!"
The ground beneath the black-clad leader's feet instantly softened, sank, and became incredibly sticky, severely restricting his movements. But this clearly wouldn't hold him for long.
What the king wanted was this moment of stillness!
His eyes flashed with a sharp light, and the Qimen Dunjia formation around him hummed under immense strain. All his power concentrated on one point, locking onto the black-clad leader, and he uttered the forbidden incantation: "Chaotic Golden Clapper—Suppress!"
At this moment, the rules of time and space were forcibly manipulated and suppressed by Wang Ye!
Everything around the black-clad leader seemed to freeze and slow down instantly, even the extension of the black energy at his fingertips became incredibly slow!
It worked!
Wang Ye was secretly delighted and was about to seize the opportunity to deliver a heavy blow when... "Huh?"
A soft exclamation, however, exploded in Wang Ye's heart like a thunderclap!
The black-clad leader, who should have been completely suppressed by "Chaotic Gold," seemed to have an indescribable light flashing under his hood, and the stagnation around him began to recede at a visible speed!
Although it's still slow, it's breaking free!
"not good!"
Wang Ye had no time to retaliate and could only retreat hastily.
next moment.
The black Taoist robe around the man in black billowed violently, and an indescribable, majestic aura, seemingly bearing the weight of mountains and rivers yet transcending them, suddenly erupted!
"Snap—!"
A clear cracking sound rang out, and the "Chaotic Gold" domain that Wang Ye had been maintaining with all his might actually cracked like fragile glass!
The leader in black shuddered, completely breaking free of his restraints and returning to normal.
Not far away, Wang Ye knelt on one knee, his chest heaving violently as he gasped for breath, cold sweat beading on his forehead.
Good guy!
He was almost exhausted after just one chaotic attack. Who exactly is this person?!
It has such a heavy "weight"!
The leader in black frowned slightly, his gaze falling on Wang Ye.
"Was this your doing?"
Just a moment ago, he clearly felt that he was out of place and disconnected from his surroundings.
He had never encountered such a method before.
Is it a secret technique passed down by Wudang?
Truly worthy of being a profound sect with a history spanning thousands of years—it should not be underestimated.
Wang Ye's face turned deathly pale, and a trickle of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth. Forcibly using the Chaotic Golden Cudgel to suppress such a master had resulted in a severe backlash, and his internal energy was now in complete disarray.
Before Wang Ye could answer—
Having completely broken free of his restraints, the black-clad leader took a step forward and was already in front of Wang Ye. He raised his right hand, joined his index and middle fingers together, and a deep black light condensed at the tip of his finger, pointing directly at Wang Ye's brow!
This finger strike was more refined and terrifying than any previous attack, carrying an aura of annihilation that could pierce through the soul!
Wang Ye's body stiffened, his Qi became disordered, and he was powerless to dodge. He could only watch helplessly as the finger of death grew larger before his eyes!
