6. Square Knife Technique
A whistling knife sound suddenly sounded from the back of Wu Chi's head.
Without thinking, Wu Chi suddenly flew forward, rolled on the spot, and dodged the knife in embarrassment.
Immediately afterwards, he put his hands on the ground, and the whole person turned over and was about to stand up again, but at this time, the empty knife suddenly changed direction, changed horizontally to vertical, and then slashed down at him.
In this way, Wu Chi also had to give up the idea of getting up, and the whole person immediately rolled to the side again, avoiding the following moves.
And the blade that attacked him also changed with Wu Chi's movements at this moment, and he didn't wait for the sword to fall before striking again. Instead, the blade was swung up when it was halfway down, and the whole movement was as smooth as flowing water, without any jerkiness and sluggishness at all.
At this moment, Wu Chi's face showed an undisguised look of surprise.
But despite the surprise and even a little doubt on his face, he was not one to sit still. Seeing Ye Kong suppressing himself one after another, his heart sank, Zhen Yuan condensed in his right hand again, and quickly swung his fist towards Ye Kong the moment he got up, and the black fist mark instantly broke out of the air again.
This time, Ye Kong didn't have any idea of keeping his hand.
The right hand grasped the hilt of the sword, the wrist turned slightly, the horizontal knife became vertical, and while the right foot stepped forward, the right hand also stabbed straight out like a spear.
The tip of the spear is the long knife.
Hearing only a deafening explosion, the black fist mark made by Wu Chi Condensing True Yuan was completely shattered under the knife blow that had been stabbing all the time. Immediately afterwards, the knife stabbed by Ye Kong was only slightly blocked for a moment, and then it slammed into Wu Chi's body again with the same momentum, and the knife qi that broke through the air hit Wu Chi's chest one step at a time, causing the wound on his original chest to expand again, and the blood that had finally been stopped was sprayed out again.
Compared to the previous knife that was slashed by Ye Kong in the Ten Thousand Bamboo Forest, the damage he received this time was obviously a little heavier.
However, the face of Zhao Hu, which Ye Kong was manipulating at this time, also turned pale suddenly, and the operation of the True Yuan in his body suddenly had a sense of sluggishness, and a sense of weakness hit Ye Kong's spirit at the same time. This made Ye Kong secretly hate: if it weren't for the jerky feeling like delay, he would definitely be able to seize the moment when he hit Wu Chi hard, quickly recover his breath and make up for it with a knife, completely ending this miscellaneous disciple of the Immortal Sect.
But it's a pity that because of the disharmony between the soul and the body, Ye Kong's return to qi is one second slower than normal, and the control of his mind is also slightly delayed. Under the superposition of the two phases, Ye Kong's reactions and movements fell in the eyes of ordinary people, which was naturally much slower, and it was more in line with the concept of "serious injury".
It's just that Wu Chi didn't realize this at all, or his attention was now completely focused on Ye Kong's face: "Thunder in all directions!" …… This is the Quartet Sword Technique of Mu Wangfu! You're not Zhao Hu! Who are you!? ”
The Chizhou Mu family is one of the nine great families in the Shenzhou Continent. As a powerful family that can be compared with the Snow Mountain Sword Sect, Tianya Mountain Villa, Changshengmen and other sects, the Mu family is also called Mu Wangfu by the people of Chizhou.
And the "Quartet Sword Method" is the basic martial arts of the Mu family that has been formed through countless simplifications and deletions, and he only has three moves: Quartet Thunder, Quartet Immovable, and Quartet Break.
The status of this martial art in Mu Wangfu is equivalent to the "Death Fist" of Changshengmen, and it is a combat skill specially learned by the family members of Mu Wangfu. Its most typical feature is that no matter what posture the first three knives are swung in, the fourth knife must be a straight stab similar to a spear, which is extremely lethal, and it can almost be said that the first three knives are superimposed, and what is even more rare is the coherence and agility of these four knives.
Of course, it is more or less very likely that such a basic martial art will be imitated in order to create some ulterior secrets.
Just like before, Zhao Hu mistakenly thought that the person who killed him was a disciple of the Snow Mountain Sword Sect.
However, this kind of imitation method may be okay to deceive ordinary people, but Changshengmen, as one of the old opponents of Mu Wangfu, obviously has a deep research and investigation on the martial arts of Mu Wangfu, others may not be able to tell the truth from the fake, but Wu Chi can definitely easily distinguish it.
Facing Wu Chi's question with strong surprise, Ye Kong didn't make any answer, he just looked at Wu Chi coldly.
If he could solve the opponent without fighting, of course Ye Kong would not waste his strength, after all, the problem of delay is difficult for Ye Kong to exert the strength that this body should have: on the surface, Ye Kong has the strength to enter the fourth layer, but in fact, because the delay caused by the inability to synchronize the soul and body, Ye Kong can only exert the strength close to the third layer of the Xuan at most.
Therefore, if Wu Chi could be killed by just bleeding, Ye Kong would of course be happy to see it.
After all, entering the Xuan Realm is still at the level of "mortals", and it has not been transcended because of this, so if the injury is too serious and the blood loss is excessive, it will also be weak, tired, weak, and even die.
But unfortunately, Wu Chi's astonishment was only for a moment, maybe he didn't expect Ye Kong's answer himself.
He used the true element to converge on the wound on his chest, and contracted the wound by tensing the muscles, so as to achieve the effect of stopping bleeding and preventing the wound from further deteriorating. At the same time, he also began to cautiously look at his surroundings through the happiness of the corner of his eye, trying to find an opportunity to escape.
As the white smoke around him gradually dissipated, the surrounding scene gradually appeared in Wu Chi's field of vision.
But as more and more scenes appeared one after another, the shock in Wu Chi's eyes became more and more intense.
At this time, the surrounding environment is no longer the thick green bamboo that grows in the Ten Thousand Bamboo Forest.
Although the surrounding environment is still similar to a bamboo forest, the color of these bamboos is much more vivid and verdant, as if it was carved from beautiful jade. And compared to the stout green bamboos in the Ten Thousand Bamboo Forest, which often require two people to hug together, these verdant bamboos in front of them are much more slender, and any adult's hand can hold them.
"Here it is...... Hsinchu Fantasy! Wu Chi's exclamation was even more unbelievable than seeing Ye Kong able to perform the Quartet Sword Technique before, "What...... Possible! On the premise of not opening the Bamboo Forest Cave Mansion, Hsinchu Fantasy should not be able to open...... This, what the hell is this......"
In the end, Wu Chi turned his head to look at Ye Kong's gaze, which had changed from the original uncertainty to horror: "You...... You're not Zhao Hu! You are...... Old man in the bamboo forest! You took away Zhao Hu! No wonder Xiao Ren died at your hands! No wonder you know how to square your sword! ”
At first, Wu Chi's words were still a little confused, but then he quickly became extremely firm, as if he had discovered some big secret.
However, in terms of the stories known to the public in Chizhou, it is indeed normal to have such a conjecture.
After the old man of the bamboo forest realized the circle in Wanzhulin, he joined Mu Wangfu to become a leader, and then he was appreciated for his outstanding talent and was cultivated by Mu Wangfu, so he was promoted from the head of the sect all the way to becoming a guest secretary. And because of the status of Keqing, the old man of Zhulin no longer needs to stay in Muwangfu, so he returned to Wanzhulin to plant bamboo until he died.
It is said that the old man of the bamboo forest died normally in the ten thousand bamboo forests, and did not fall due to the battle.
Therefore, it is natural for Wu Chi to have this kind of speculation: no one will wait for death with peace of mind, especially the cultivators who are competing for longevity with the heavens, and they will do everything possible to avoid death. It may hurt the heavens and the peace, but if the longevity can be extended, then many people are willing to take risks, but it is not easy to find a suitable body.
Ye Kong was not an old man in the bamboo forest, so he naturally scoffed at this, but he still somewhat appreciated Wu Chi's keen reaction.
In fact, the old man of the bamboo forest has indeed not really fallen yet, and he is indeed preparing to find a suitable physical body to take away, and Bizhushu is the bait he throws out. It's just that these things are impossible for ordinary people to know, but Ye Kong, who knows this secret, doesn't have any thoughts about Bizhushu, or he doesn't take Bizhushu in his eyes at all.
A mere yellow-level exercise recipe is of course unattractive to Ye Kong, who knows countless heaven-level and even god-level exercise cheats.
Moreover, he also knows the content of the exercises recorded in the Bizhu book.
"I'm not an old man in the bamboo forest, but one thing you guessed right, he really didn't die." Ye Kong replied with a rare opening, "But he will die soon." ”
"What do you mean?" Wu Chi no longer wanted to kill the Zhao Hu in front of him, all he was thinking about now was how to escape from this illusion.
"A soul that has lost its physical body, no matter how powerful it is, cannot remain in the world indefinitely. He sealed himself in the magic circle in the depths of the cave, hiding from the assimilation and erosion of the aura of heaven and earth for hundreds of years, which was already considered his superb means, and he would have to truly dissipate in this world in another ten years at most. ”
Ye Kong glanced at the scar on Wu Chi's chest, although the blood was stopped, the deterioration of the injury was obviously getting worse and worse, so he didn't mind spending some more time talking nonsense, because he could also take this opportunity to slowly regain his breath.
"What do you mean...... Bizhu Book is a conspiracy!? ”
"How can it be said to be a conspiracy? This is a conspiracy above board. Ye Kong shook his head slightly, "As long as you have a greed for Bizhushu, or if you have a need for the remaining resources of the Bamboo Forest Old Man's Cave Mansion, then you can't avoid it, and you must explore it yourself." But because of the selfishness of people, of course you will not publicize these secrets, and the number of people who will eventually enter the Bamboo Forest Cave Mansion will definitely not exceed five, and when you break countless traps and come to the old man of the Bamboo Forest, how many of you will still be alive? One or two? ”
Ye Kong's words hit Wu Chi's heart like thunder, shaking him a little in a trance.
Seeing Wu Chi's reaction, Ye Kong's eyes froze, and with a little step, the whole person shot out like a sharp arrow.
Quartet Kill!
Stimulated by Ye Kong's murderous aura, Wu Chi finally recovered from his state of distraction, but at this time, he was no longer able to dodge, because the qi machine had been firmly locked by Ye Kong.
Seeing that he couldn't dodge, Wu Chi suddenly became ruthless in his heart, and let out an angry roar, all the remaining true elements in his body were condensed into his hands, and the black light that shone like metal instantly covered Wu Chi's hands. The next moment, I saw that he did not retreat but advanced towards Ye Kong, and his fists were struck out at the same time: "Let's die together!" ”
Looking at Wu Chi, whose emotions were already out of control, revealing a crazy color, the corners of Ye Kong's mouth showed a touch of sarcasm.
The tip of the knife and the black fist quickly collided.
It's just that the result is not what Wu Chi thought at all.
The black fist, touched by the tip of Ye Kong's knife, was like glass that had been hit by a stone, and it was completely shattered in an instant. As soon as the strong sword wind rolled, Wu Chi's hands, which had lost the protection of the True Yuan, were suddenly shaken apart, exposing his defenseless chest.
The blade pierced Wu Chi's chest without hindrance.
However, this time, Ye Kong didn't spare any hands, and the true yuan in his body penetrated into Wu Chi's chest along the short-handled knife, and exploded suddenly, completely destroying all of Wu Chi's vitality.
"For ...... What ......" Wu Chi's face was still puzzled.
"Since you know that it is a Quartet Destruction, you still dare to disperse your power, I have never seen anyone more stupid than you." Ye Kong said lightly, "But I have to thank you." ”
Wu Chi's face showed a blank look.
"Although I know the location of Hsinchu Fantasyland, I am the only one who can't enter." Looking at Wu Chi's eyes, Ye Kong said word by word, "It takes at least two people to open this secret realm. ”
Wu Chi's eyes widened, he stretched out his left hand with difficulty, grabbed Ye Kong's right shoulder tightly, and showed an unwilling look on his face: "What the hell are you...... Who is it? ”
Staring at Wu Chi's eyes, Ye Kong's face showed a little loneliness: "A person who knows most of the secrets of this world, but does not belong to this world. ”
As the words fell, Ye Kong pulled the short-handled knife out of Wu Chi's chest, and at the same time pulled away all Wu Chi's vitality.
