Chapter 207: Blocking the Road (4,000 words)
Li Qiu's face did not fluctuate, he turned the blade of the knife, and slashed out horizontally, and the bloody sword broke through the air, and the knife was fierce and fierce.
If this knife is slashed by Li Qiu, it will probably be killed by the waist slash!
Feeling a strong threat to his life, he was forced to retract his attack and retreat to dodge, but it was too late, and he was injured by the blade with strong blood attached.
Whoa!
The long knife slashed through, and the scorching qi and blood scorched the flesh and skin of the cloaked yin ghost like flames.
Ahhh
The hair-clad yin ghost let out a terrible scream, clutched its injured abdomen, and retreated again and again, looking at Li Qiu's eyes full of fear.
After it turned into a Yin Ghost, except for the battle of equal strength a month ago, it had been slaughtering ordinary people who had not practiced martial arts or warriors whose strength was much lower than it, and it was the first time that it had faced a martial artist who was stronger than itself.
In the face of ordinary people whose strength is far inferior to its own, it can wantonly reveal its hideous ferocity, but when facing Li Qiu, who is stronger than it, especially after being injured by Li Qiu's face, it seems to have changed from the terrible ghost who slaughtered thousands of people to a timid village woman, only covering her wounds and screaming in horror and retreating.
In fact, the ghost body of the Yin Ghost can be compared with the physical strength of a martial artist in the late stage of the visceral period, but it does not understand the moves and does not understand the martial arts, and it is difficult to exert all its strength, so it can only barely defeat Jiang Han's kind of martial artist in the early stage of the visceral period, and in the face of Li Qiu, who has the strength of the late stage of the real visceral period, it can no longer be aggressive.
Especially after Li Qiu connived at it to kill Zheng Ming and got revenge, most of the ferocity in its heart had dissipated, and now coupled with the incomparable fear of Li Qiu in its heart, it could exert even less strength.
Li Qiu's eyes were cold, and with a step on his feet, he swung his knife and slashed at the frightened hair-clad Yin Ghost, exuding a terrifying momentum from top to bottom, like a fierce beast that wanted to choose people and devour.
The cloaked yin ghost screamed in horror and dodged in a hurry, dodging Li Qiu's attack.
Li Qiu's expression was cold, and he swung his knife and slashed continuously, and the blood-colored sword light fell like heavy rain, enveloping the haired yin ghost.
The haired yin ghost seemed to have lost all courage, and in the face of Li Qiu's violent attack, he only knew how to dodge, but he didn't know how to counterattack to contain his offensive.
Before she became a yin ghost, she was just an ordinary woman, and she hadn't experienced too many big battles, and her combat experience was completely incomparable to the yin ghosts that Li Qiu had fought before.
Swish!
After Li Qiu slashed several times in a row, one of the knives finally did not dodge the Yin Ghost.
Li Qiu had the feeling of a hot knife cutting butter, and he didn't feel any hindrance, and cut off one of the arms of the cloaked yin ghost with a knife.
Ahhh
The haired ghost looked painful and hideous, and let out a terrible and sharp scream.
Li Qiu didn't have any stagnation, and after cutting off the arm of the cloaked yin ghost, he immediately swung his knife and slashed at its head!
The sword light is like a match, roaring through the air!
Swish!
The long knife slashed, and the haired yin ghost stood stiffly in place as if it had been pointed at an acupuncture point, and his eyes were full of horror.
Li Qiu put away his knife and stood up, looking up.
A dark red line of blood slowly emerged from the white neck of the cloudy ghost.
In the next moment, dark red viscous blood gushed out from the hideous wound.
Thump!
The corpse of the cloaked yin ghost fell to the ground, billowing black gas coming out of its body, and the flesh and blood on its body dried up and down at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it didn't take long for it to become a dry corpse.
Li Qiu stood aside, looking down at the dried corpse on the ground with indifferent eyes, waving his knife casually to shake off the blood on the knife, and slowly put the knife back into its sheath.
Source Force: 40
The ninth layer of the Black Tiger Demon Canon (Derivation and Ascension), the ninth layer of Aoki Duel (Ascension), the eighth layer of Cangshan Qianyuan Gong (Ascension), the ninth layer of Brute Elephant Gong (Ascension), the ninth layer of Spirit Snake Gong (Ascension), the Perfection of Qingshuang Knife Technique (Derivation and Ascension), and the Secret Method: Burning Blood (Elevation), ......
"Killing this Yin Ghost actually added forty points of source power to me almost in one go. ”
Li Qiu's gaze swept over the source force panel, a little surprised.
On second thought, he understood.
Although the strength shown by this Yin Ghost is not like being able to match the martial artists of the late stage of the Visceral Cultivation Period, the strength of its ghost body is indeed comparable to that of the late stage of the Visceral Cultivation Period, so it will only get so much source power by killing it.
It seems that how much source power you can get from slaying a ghost seems to depend on the strongest strength that a ghost can theoretically exert.
Thinking back to the seriously injured Yin Ghost he killed in the mountains and forests outside Shangjiang City, it seems that the source power he obtained has not been reduced because of his injury.
He obtained more than forty points of source power, which was enough for any of the five exercises he had cultivated to be promoted to the tenth layer, even if he had not been cultivating for long and was still at the eighth layer of Cangshan Qianyuan Gong.
Li Qiu could feel that his Cangshan Qianyuan Gong was not far from breaking through the ninth layer, so it shouldn't consume too much source power to raise it to the ninth layer.
Li Qiu decided to use the source power to deduce and improve the Black Tiger Demon Classic, so that it could reach the tenth layer.
Other exercises can be cultivated by themselves without being promoted, but if the Black Tiger Demon Canon is not promoted and promoted, there will be no follow-up exercises.
Derivation and promotion, the tenth layer of the Black Tiger Classic!
Source Force: 4
The tenth layer of the Black Tiger Curse, the ninth layer of Aoki Duel, the ninth layer of Cangshan Qianyuan Gong, the ninth layer of the Barbarian Elephant Gong (ascension), the ninth layer of the Spirit Snake Gong, the consummation of the Qingshuang Sword Technique, the Secret Method, Burning Blood......
The tenth layer of the Black Tiger Sutra appeared in Li thalamus's brain, and all kinds of essences flowed in his brain.
The qi and blood in his body grew violently, the bones and muscles became more tenacious and powerful, the strength of his body skyrocketed, and the growth of his strength made him happy in his heart.
Li Qiu looked at the panel and found that Cangshan Qianyuan Gong had been promoted to the ninth layer because of the promotion of the Black Tiger Martial Arts.
The Black Tiger Demon Classics mainly focus on qi and blood to quench bones followed by muscles, and Cangshan Qianyuan Gong Bamboo focuses on qi and blood to quench muscles and bones.
The Black Tiger Demon was raised to the tenth layer, making the muscles stronger and reaching the condition for Cangshan Qianyuan Gong to break through to the ninth layer, and Cangshan Qianyuan Gong naturally broke through to the ninth layer.
In addition, the improvement of the Black Tiger Demon Classic has also brought the brute elephant skill, which is also the main qi and blood refining muscles, to the brink of breakthrough.
Li Qiu stared at the panel, looking delighted.
With only four points of source power left, it was naturally best to be able to make the Brute Elephant Skill break through to the tenth layer.
Ascension, the tenth layer of the Brute Elephant Gong!
Li Qiu felt that the qi and blood in his body had grown a little stronger, and his muscles were stronger and more powerful.
This time the improvement is much smaller than the one just now.
Source force: 0.0
The tenth layer of the Black Tiger Curse, the tenth layer of the Brute Elephant Gong, and the ninth layer of the Aoki Duel......
"The two exercises have been promoted to the tenth level, which has promoted my martial arts realm from the early stage of the visceral cultivation period to the late stage of the visceral cultivation period, and at the same time, it has also made me lose the combat power to fight across the border again. ”
Li Qiu shook his head.
He felt that his current strength should be at the peak of the realm of the Cultivation Period, but he was a little worse than that of a Blood Condensation Stage martial artist.
......
He still has to wait for several other exercises to reach the tenth layer, and his strength can match that of a blood condensation stage martial artist.
The exercises he practiced had changed from four to five, and from two superior exercises to three superior exercises.
Li Qiu estimated that if he cultivated step by step, he would probably not be able to raise all of them to the tenth layer in a short period of time, and he could only get some more source power.
Fortunately, after he became a Sky Surveyor, the last thing he lacked was news about ghosts.
There are countless source forces waiting for him to obtain them all over the world.
The Yin Ghost of Yeonsan Fortress in Gyeongju has been killed by him, and he can return to the Heaven Survey Division.
But before that, he has a few things to take care of.
Li Qiu sent someone to call Jiang Han back to Yanshan City.
Jiang Han returned to the City Lord's Mansion and was shocked when he saw the corpse of the Yin Ghost and the unscathed Li Qiu, and secretly sighed that he was worthy of being a Sky Surveyor sent by the Heaven Survey Division, his strength was really strong, and his attitude towards Li Qiu was even more respectful.
In fact, what he didn't know was that Li Qiu was indeed sent by the Heaven Survey Division to kill the Yin Ghost of Yanshan City, but he didn't kill it like this.
The Sky Survey Division originally meant that a martial artist in the early stage of the cultivation period in Yanshan City was not the opponent of the Yin ghost, so then send another martial artist in the early stage of the cultivation period, and the two of them should be able to deal with that yin ghost when they join forces.
It was Zheng Ming and Jiang Han who misunderstood Li Qiu's strength and overestimated the hands of the Sky Survey Division.
However, Li Qiu's strength is indeed comparable to that of a martial artist in the visceral period, which made Jiang Han misunderstand until the end.
Li Qiu did not leave Yanshan City immediately after killing the Yin Ghost, he asked Jiang Han to collect evidence of Zheng Ming's corruption, and how he killed the Yin Ghost family, and wrote a piece of music to present to the imperial court.
took a third-grade member of the imperial court as a bait, and as a result, he died at the hands of the Yin Ghost, which is also a big trouble if it is investigated.
But if a third-grade member of the imperial court who committed a serious crime took the initiative to be bait and wanted to redeem his merits, and finally died in the hands of the Yin Ghost, this matter has little to do with him.
After solving Zheng Ming's matter, Li Qiu finally made a deal with Jiang Han.
After the Surveyor slays the ghosts, he returns to the Surveyor Division and writes a report on the slaying of the ghosts to the Surveyor.
At the same time, the area that suffers from the ghosts should also write a report of the incident and report it to the Sky Survey Division.
The focus is on local escalations of the matter, and the Surveyor will look at the Surveyors to see if they have been slacking off or violating the law, in order to assess how much rest time the Surveyors are given, and whether to warn or expel them from the Surveyors.
Li Qiu didn't do anything out of the ordinary, but he exposed his strength.
He asked Jiang Han to write in his report to the Celestial Survey that he had fought with the Clothed Yin Ghost and killed the Clothed Yin Ghost at the cost of several minor injuries.
In return, Li Qiu would say a few kind words for Jiang Han in his report to the Heaven Survey Division, so that he would be punished less lightly by the imperial court.
After his strength reached the peak of the cultivation period, Li Qiu decided to reveal part of his strength.
Killing the hair-clad yin ghost with a slight injury is about the same as just breaking through to the late stage of the visceral period.
After the Sky Survey Division learned of his strength, he should be able to deal with stronger Yin Ghosts, and he would be able to get more source power at one time.
After dealing with all the follow-up matters, Li Qiu rode on his horse and embarked on the return journey of the Sky Survey Division.
When he came, saving people was like fighting a fire, he came all the way, although it was faster than riding a horse, but it was a little hard and embarrassing.
On the way back, there was no rush for anything, and it was naturally better to ride a horse.
Two days later, he returned to Fuzhou and was on a necessary road to Fuzhou City.
There was a simple tea stall on the side of the road, and Li Qiu didn't feel thirsty or tired, so he didn't stop and rode his horse directly.
After Li Qiu rode by, the owner of the tea stall took out a carrier pigeon and released it.
In the afternoon, the sun was shining and there were no clouds.
Li Qiu was riding on a horse, and he was estimating that there were still dozens of miles to reach Fuzhou City.
Two people suddenly flashed on both sides of the official road, blocking Li Qiu's way.
Hiss!
Li Qiu's eyes froze, and he grabbed the horse that was galloping, raised it in front of the horse, and let out a long neigh.
Li Qiu's gaze swept over the two people who were blocking the road, and he felt a powerful power from the two of them.
I'm afraid these are two martial artists in the late stage of the visceral cultivation period.
Cheng Jin and Wang Wu stood in the center of the official road, looking at Li Qiu with murderous intent in their eyes.
The horse that Li Qiu was riding felt this fierce killing intent and became restless, and its four hooves kept shaking, letting out a panicked neigh.
Although he didn't know the two people who were blocking the way, the two of them were obviously coming for him, and I am afraid that this matter will not be good.
Li Qiu turned over and dismounted, letting the restless horse run off the official road.
He also stood in the middle of the road, looking at Cheng Jin and the two with a cold expression.
The three of them stood on the official road, confronting each other without saying a word, their eyes colliding, and the air seemed to condense into substance.
Cheng Jin looked vicious, stood with his hands down, and looked at Li Qiu with his eyes, like a vicious wolf that wanted to pounce.
Wang Wu, who was holding his arms on the side and looked disdainful, opened his mouth.
"Boy, both of us are in the late stage of the raising period, and we will definitely die if you face us. ”
"Hand over the weapon behind you, and the two of us can spare you from dying!"
A hint of cunning flashed in Wang Wu's eyes.
Even if Li Qiu sacrificed the knife, they would kill Li Qiu.
Before leaving, Yang Jun had already explained that even if Li Qiu took the initiative to offer a knife, he would kill him and cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
Li Qiu has the qualifications to become a martial saint, and he must not be allowed to survive, lest he be retaliated against in the future.
Hearing Wang Wu's words, Li Qiu's expression moved slightly, it turned out that he was coming for the Yetan Knife.
"There is only one knife, if I give the knife, how will you two divide it?"
Wang Wu sneered disdainfully.
"Boy, such a clumsy divisive plan, don't take it out and show it!"
Carefully observing the expressions of the two, Li Qiu, who found that the expressions of the two had not changed in the slightest, suddenly understood in his heart.
I'm afraid it's not these two who want his sword, but someone else who wants his knife, these two people are the men who were sent by that man to take the knife.
Li Qiu felt a hint of crisis.
Not because of the two late-stage martial artists in front of them, but because of the person behind them.
To be able to instruct two late stage martial artists in the visceral cultivation period, at least one martial artist in the blood clotting stage must be instructed.
It is not difficult to solve the two people in front of him with his strength, but it is the mastermind behind this matter that is difficult to deal with.
If he solves these two people, the next time he comes out may be the mastermind behind the blood clotting period.
His current strength is not enough to compete with the Blood Condensation Stage Martial Artist!
Cheng Jin and Wang Wu looked at Li Qiu's solemn expression, thinking that he couldn't use a divisive plan, and wanted to resist desperately.
"Boy, since you are stubborn, no wonder the two of us are ruthless!"
With a sinister smile on their faces, the two of them pulled out the weapons behind them and killed Li Qiu.
Cheng Jin and the others didn't know that Li Qiu, who had a solemn expression, was not thinking about them at all, and had already drifted to the mastermind behind Fuzhou City.
Seeing the two of them killing him, Li Qiu came back to his senses, his eyes were cold, and he drew his knife out of its sheath.
"Those should be thought about later, and solve the two in front of you first!"
