Chapter 104: Shadow Cut
Seeing the ninja quickly disappear into the darkness, Zhanye immediately retreated to the totem pole. He rushed to Yao Ping's side, who was still searching for the entrance to the dungeon, and quickly set up an arrow, turning it to another ninja who was fighting with Yoo Eun-jae not far away.
Ryu Eun-jae sensed Zhanye's killing intent towards the ninja through his "insight", and he immediately turned his pace to lure the ninja in front of him to turn to the other side, exposing his back to Zhanye's arrows.
"Bang!"
Zhan Ye grasped the fleeting moment, and he fired a full line, and the arrow rushed straight to the ninja's back.
The ninja who was fighting with Yoo Eun-jae with all his heart could hear the sound of the strings behind him, but he couldn't dodge. This time, Zhanye's arrow no longer missed, hitting the target, and with the sound of "poof", the arrow pierced the back shoulder blade of the ninja's back with a powerful force.
The ninja who was hit by the arrow snorted first, and staggered to one side.
Seeing that the opponent was hit by an arrow, Yoo Eun-jae did not hesitate to swing his knife at him and slash away, but the ninja couldn't block it, and half of his palm was cut off by Yoo Eun-jae in an instant.
However, when Ryu Eun-jae wanted to mend the knife and finish off the injured ninja, he suddenly saw a strong killing intent suddenly appear behind him. And at the same time as that killing intent came, it was the sound of a sharp weapon breaking through the wind and whistling.
Yoo Eun-jae hurriedly retracted his sword to block, and after a crisp sound of metal colliding, a ninja dart turned and fell to the ground. When Ryu Eun-jae dropped the ninja dart and tried to turn around to kill the wounded ninja, he saw that the ninja had already taken the opportunity to escape into the darkness, leaving a trail of blood on the ground.
"Yao Ping, what did you find?" Yoo Eun-jae looked at the darkness around him vigilantly and asked Yao Ping.
"They should be locked up under this big pillar." Yao Ping anxiously opened his mouth at this time and said to Zhanye and Liu Enya at the same time, "But I can't find the entrance." ”
Yoo Eun-jae was about to reply to Yao Ping again, but he suddenly felt a murderous aura rise again in the darkness, and this time, a flying sickle flew towards him. Yoo Eun-jae dodged sideways, and quickly swung his knife as he dodged, severing the incoming scythe chains in one fell swoop.
"Zhanye, be careful!" After Yoo Eun-jae cut the scythe, he suddenly turned his head in shock and shouted to Zhanye.
Hearing Yoo Eun-jae shout like this, Zhan Ye knew that there was an enemy attacking. However, Zhanye, who was pulling the strings and preparing to shoot at the scythe in the dark, was unable to dodge the enemy's sneak attack in time like last time. Before he could look around where the enemy was coming from, a kunai dagger came out of the darkness and came at him at close range. Ku Wu came out of his hand and accurately hit Zhanye's right arm with the bow.
Suffering without such a blow, Zhanye's arm was immediately loosened due to the injury, and the arrow also turned out to be wounded, and the arrow was shot at Yoo Eun-jae impartially.
Yoo Eun-jae was quick to react, and after swinging his knife to slash the flying arrows, he hurried forward to rescue Zhanye. However, before Ryu Eun-jae could get close to Zhanye, the ninja who threw kunai at Zhanno quickly sent a second kunai to Zhanye.
Although Zhanye's right arm was injured, fortunately, he had already discovered the enemy's incoming direction at this time, and he had already dodged before the second shot was completely out of his hands. The ninja who launched the kunai saw that the second shot of the kunai was hit, turned and pulled out the ribs around his waist again, and chased towards Zhanye. Not to be outdone, Zhanye, who flashed to the side, dropped the bow in his hand, and instead pulled out the short knife at his waist with his backhand, and rushed towards the ninja.
Seeing that Zhanye was injured in the battle, and Liu Eunjae was also disturbed by the attack of the lock sickle flying hammer in the darkness, Yao Ping, who couldn't find the entrance to the dungeon for a long time, was even more anxious.
"Help!" Ryu Eun-jae shouted to Yao Ping after swinging his knife and slashing the ninja with the scythe.
An anxious Yao Ping circled around the totem pole, still unable to find the entrance to the dungeon. Helplessly, he looked at the totem pole again and again, and kept knocking on the ground.
However, just as he felt helplessly tapping on the ground, suddenly, the shadow cast by the totem pole on the ground attracted his attention. Looking at the huge shadow cast by the totem pole on the ground, Yao Ping suddenly thought of the "shadow cut" in his hand.
He thought, Yu Xuzi said that this knife is an artifact, a weapon with the ability of a god to manifest a spirit, and it is also named "Shadow Cut", so maybe it has the ability to cut off shadows. That may be the ability to cut off the shadow of the object by cutting off the shadow of the object, so as to cut off the object itself.
Yao Ping thought so, and immediately glanced at the "shadow cut" in his hand. Then he drew his knife out of the sheath with his backhand, and a cold purple light flashed out of the sheath.
Throwing the scabbard aside, Yao Ping grasped the hilt of the knife with both hands, he stared at the relatively clear totem pole projection on the ground, and couldn't help but take a deep breath.
When Yao Ping was about to slash towards a shadow of the totem pole, he suddenly heard the voice of Liu Enzai not far away, and he shouted to him, "Think about its power, think reverently." ”
Yao Ping turned his head to look at Ryu Eunya, who had killed the scythe ninja and turned to help Zhanye, and he took a few deep breaths after answering him. Then, Yao Ping thought about the ability of "Shadow Cut" that he had guessed, and took advantage of the situation to swing the blade of "Shadow Cut" horizontally through the shadow cast by the totem pole.
The blade of the "Shadow Cut" passed through the projection of the totem pole from the air, and even the projection of the knife passed through the projection of the totem pole. After this intentional swing, Yao Ping first looked at the shadow of the totem pole on the ground, and then turned around to look at the totem pole itself. And yet nothing happened. The totem pole still stands there.
"Isn't that the ability?" Yao Ping muttered and looked back at Zhanye and Yoo Eun-jae blankly. He noticed that they were all fighting, and he didn't even notice his words.
Yao Ping was stunned for a moment, and then he turned to poke the tip of the "Shadow Cut" knife to the ground. Facing the shadow of the totem pole on the ground, Yao Ping slowly pulled the "shadow cut". With the sound of the tip of the knife touching the ground, Shadow Cut cut through the thick shadow cast by the totem pole from the ground.
As soon as the blade passed, Yao Ping was surprised to see that the shadow cast by the totem pole on the ground began to skew.
"Be careful!!" Zhanye suddenly shouted.
With Zhanye's shouting, Yao Ping was suddenly frightened, and when he wanted to look back to see if the totem pole was really broken, and where he was going to fall, Zhanye had already rushed to his side at this time, and grabbed him and threw himself out.
With a dull and shocking sound, Yao Ping, who got up from the ground, looked back in shock to see that the totem pole had really broken like this, and it happened to fall to the place where he was standing just now.
"County Lieutenant Zhan, are you okay?" Yao Ping looked at Zhan Ye beside him in horror and said, "You saved my life again." ”
Zhan Ye pressed his injured arm, gritted his teeth and said, "Don't talk nonsense, go and see where the totem is, it's important to save people." ”
"I'll go." Yao Ping didn't have time to help Zhan Ye up, so he hurried to the unbroken root of the totem pole.
When he approached the broken totem, he took a closer look and realized that the totem pole was actually a hollow pillar, and the hollow part of it went straight underground.
Yao Ping leaned on the wall of the totem pillar and looked down at its interior, but saw that one of them was pitch black and could not see anything. But again, he could clearly hear the crash, and a dull whimper. It was like a woman's whimper.
Hearing this, Yao Ping's nerves immediately tightened, and he immediately shouted at the dungeon under the totem, "Jun Li, Huahua, don't be afraid!" I'll go down and save you!" After speaking, Yao Ping immediately turned around and went to fetch a torch on the side. However, at the same time as Yao Ping took the torch from the torch stand, he was suddenly shocked to see that on the huge totem that had just fallen down, there was an additional person at some point. There was one more person dressed in white and holding a sword.
Yao Pingding saw that although this person was also masked and had split toe shoes, his dress was different from that of the ninjas who had just appeared, he was wearing a wide Wu suit, and his hair was also a unique moon head of the Sakura samurai, and a firm braid was tied on the top of his head.
At this point, Yao Fang suddenly understood that the masked man he had seen before entering the village standing on the protruding rocks and observing the settlement was not Liu Enzai, but the person in front of him, this was also a Yingzhou swordsman dressed in white.
"Draw your sword!"
The white-clothed Yingzhou swordsman suddenly spoke to Yao Ping in Yiluo language.
Yao Ping was stunned for a moment, he may have seen that he was holding the "Shadow Cut" in his hand, and he had just cut off the totem pole, so he must have regarded himself as a top swordsman.
"Who are you?" Yao Ping held his knife and asked him, "Report your name." ”
"Mino country, a thousand people are killed, Saito Takeryu." Takeshi Saito also asked Yao Ping, "What do you call Your Excellency?" ”
"Did you kill all the people here?" Yao Ping didn't answer Saito Takeryu, and instead continued to ask him.
Seeing that Yao Ping didn't answer himself, Saito Takeru stopped making a sound, he slowly took a step back, and lowered his body to Yao Ping to make a gesture of preparing to draw his sword.
"Yao Ping, be careful!" After feeling the murderous aura of Saito Takeryu, Yoo Eun-jae reminded Yao Ping. As Yoo Eun-jae's reminder came into his ears, Yao Hei saw Saito Takeru sweeping towards him like the wind along the fallen totem pole.
As soon as he quickly approached Yao Ping, Saito Takeryu drew his sword and slashed at him with swift cross-cutting. Seeing that the enemy was fierce, Yao Ping, who didn't know swordsmanship, had to instinctively block it with a horizontal sword.
"Get out of the way!"
When Saito Takeru's sword swung in front of Yao Ping, Zhan Ye hurried with a short knife in one hand, he squeezed Yao Ping aside with his body, and stopped Saito Takeliu's swift sword blow with the short knife.
Saito Takeryu saw that the knife was stopped by Zhanye, so he turned to probe the knife and attacked Zhanye. Zhan Ye was defeated with a one-handed short knife, and was injured by Saito Takeryu's blade in three moves, cutting a wound in the waist and abdomen.
Seeing that Zhanye was injured, Yao Ping knew that if Zhanye hadn't arrived in time just now, he might have been killed by this Yingzhou swordsman with just one sword. Although he felt that his opponent was strong, Yao Ping still held the "Shadow Cut" in his hand, that is, he wanted to step forward to help Zhanye. But before Yao Ping stepped forward, he saw something suddenly flying towards Saito Takeru from the side.
In the face of the flying object, Takeshi Saito turned around and used his knife to block the back. The object landed on the ground and rolled irregularly until the rolling quickly stopped, and everyone could see that the flying object was the head of a ninja. The skull was covered in blood and covered with a ninja's mask.
I looked at the place where the head came from, but I saw that Yoo Eun-jae was slowly coming with a knife. After he approached everyone, he said coldly to Saito Takeryu, "Idiot, your opponent is me. ”
Takeru Saito glanced at the blood stains of the ninja stained on Ryu Eunya's white clothes and asked, "Who are you?" ”
"Killing innocent villains, with your swordsmanship, you don't deserve to ask my name." Yoo Eun-jae said, "It's already your honor to die under my sword." ”
"Ahh Arrogant! Saito Takeru said as he slashed at Yoo Eun-ya.
Yoo Eun-jae snorted, and rushed to meet the battle with his sword. The swords of the two swordsmen intersected, and in an instant, a dense sword light and sword shadow danced, and the extremely similar sharp sword and the Taidao suddenly broke out into a fierce collision.
