Chapter 8: Rivalry of Old Enemies
There is not much dry food, not enough to eat.
Master Yi looked at this group of gobbling up children, and strengthened his determination. That thing, only by getting it can you save Ionia!
He stroked the hilt of the sword, feeling the hum coming from the sword. Cultivating the Infinite Way since he was a child, Master Yi has mastered unparalleled combat skills. Whenever he thinks back to that rainy night away from home, he hates why he left. Join him to stay, protect the village, or die in battle, will it not be so tormented?
He was inspired by the atoning journey, the children he was protecting, and the fact that he had found the heir he should have spent most of his life finding.
The girl in red, Chu Shenyu.
Looking at her, Master Yi's gaze softened a lot.
"Shen Yu, do you see the way?"
Shen Yu swallowed the last bite of food and saluted respectfully: "Master Huiyi, I saw a tree-lined path covered with flowers and plants. ”
It's actually a grass and wood kendo. Master Yi was surprised in his heart, this girl was a rare wood attribute sword qi. The so-called kendo of grass and trees, that is, the kendo, which does not particularly rely on weapons and can be used to kill the enemy, is more difficult to prevent than ordinary kendo.
"Good. Our Wuji Kendo focuses more on refining the heart than on strength, so even a weak woman can burst out with great power. Master Yi said that his hand was beckoned backwards, and the ancient green sword flew into his palm with a humming sound.
"Look!"
Yi took the green sword, got up on the spot, pinched the sword trick in his hand, and began to dance the sword, his every move was strange and beautiful. Shen Yu was fascinated by it, and even the children who were eating were attracted by Master Yi's movements.
After a few breaths of slow dancing, Master Yi's movements began to speed up, and a sword danced in his hand so hard that it could not be splashed. Quick, faster... Master Yi's movements had turned into afterimages later, and the children were almost stunned by his movements, only Shen Yu could hold his breath and concentrate, and he didn't dare to breathe.
In the end, Master Yi had already divided into two clones in the eyes of the children, each with three heads and six arms, and the sword qi was raging. Suddenly, Master Yi's body disappeared, and after a dazzling flash, the four large trees with the thickness of an adult's arms in front of him were cut off in unison, and the wounds were neat.
Yi's figure reappeared and closed the momentum.
"Whew..."
Master Yi raised his sword flat, then meditated on the spot with both hands and began to meditate. And the sword floated silently in the air, rhythmically floating up and down with Master Yi's breathing.
After a long time, Master Yi slowly opened his eyes and asked Shen Yu with a smile: "How is it, do you see clearly?" ”
Shen Yu's autumn-like eyes flashed, and he nodded again and again. "Master Yi, I seem to understand better!"
"Hmph, Master Yi is eccentric, he only teaches his sister, Xiaoyan also wants to learn, Xiaoyan also wants to protect everyone!" The little girl in yellow was not happy, and her mouth was so pouting that she could hang a soy sauce bottle.
The teenagers and girls next to her hurriedly covered her mouth and said, "Xiaoyan, what are you talking about?" Don't disturb your sister and the master's cultivation. "Xiaoyan come and join us, we'll take you to play." …
After all, this group of teenagers and girls was older than Xiao Yan, and they knew that Master Yi's sword path was only suitable for a small number of people to cultivate.
Looking at Xiao Yan, who was full of displeasure, Master Yi touched his beard and said with a smile: "Then I'll teach Xiao Yan and everyone to cultivate now, okay?" ”
"Good!" Xiao Yan opened the arms of a gray-clothed girl and ran in front of Master Yi like a deer. Don't look at her small size, the two little short-legged girls are really fast.
The boys and girls never expected that Master Yi was really willing to guide them. You know, it turns out that Master Yi said bluntly that they don't have the talent to cultivate the Dao of Infinite Extreme!
Master Yi's idea was simple. He wanted to teach the children some basic swordsmanship, which ordinary people could also practice. So that after hitting the road themselves, this group of children has some defense.
When you have repelled the Noxians and quelled the predation of the Void creatures, where will you go? Perhaps, we can re-establish a new hometown with hope.
……
Years of peace in Ionia were destined to be shattered.
The wind blows.
Rumble! Click!
The magic of fire and lightning suddenly exploded, shining half of the night sky, and the source of the terrifying power, the two teams of magicians were fighting.
"The people of the Illuminati will appear here..."A man shrouded in shadows stepped out of the crowd of magicians in black cloaks. His appearance filled the air with a faint smell of blood. The man let out a sneer, staring at the group of white-robed people opposite. He was dressed in a bloody robe, with a pale face and an elegant demeanor, with a black rose embroidered on his chest.
The white-robed mage was led by a white-bearded old man holding a simple staff. He was none other than the magician of Demacia, the Grand Elder of the Illuminati.
The Great Elder frowned. The man on the other side exuded a bloody aura that made him a little unbearable.
"It seems that the Noxians are not completely ignorant fools."
"Hypocrisy." The man smiled contemptuously, "Is this the justice of the Demacians who hunt down the folk magicians and secretly prepare the magic team themselves?" ”
Hearing this, behind the Great Elder, a girl who wrapped herself in a cloak trembled slightly. "Miss Laxana, what's wrong with you?"
The two teenagers next to Lux asked eagerly. These two are almost the same age as Lux, both of whom are apprentices of the Illuminati, and this time there are more than a dozen potential apprentices, who are traveling with the Great Elder to experience or find something.
Boss was impressively in the ranks, but his complicated gaze at Lux was filled with awe. Two fools, they have no idea what kind of horror is hidden in this noble girl in front of them.
Lux shook her head imperceptibly.
Without saying a word, the two sides fought again, but it was not the magic team that fought just now, but a head-on battle between the blood-robed man and the Great Elder.
Hiss... Two blood snakes appeared silently, and pounced on the Great Elder with their foul mouths open. The Great Elder snorted coldly, and his staff shook the ground, and an earthy yellow shield of light firmly enveloped his body. The little snake smashed into the shield and shattered instantly, turning into a pool of blood.
"The Great Elder is the pinnacle of earth magicians! This attack doesn't even tickle his old man! A thin young man laughed.
"It's my turn!"
The Great Elder muttered words in his mouth, the staff was dotted, and a bulge appeared in the ground under his feet, rushing towards the blood-robed man, as if there was some creature under the land. The blood-robed man retreated again and again, but he was still caught up by the bulge, and the bulge broke through the ground, and it was a ball of crocodile-like energy!
The 'crocodile' gulped at the man, and the blood-robed man was too slow to dodge. A slight smile appeared on the Great Elder's face.
Crash...
The man's body turned into a pool of blood.
"Lord Vladimir!" "Not good!"
There were several exclamations from the crowd in the black cloak behind the man. They belong to the Order of the 'Black Rose', and they are all apprentice mages who complete their missions with Vladimir. If Vladimir dies, the old enemy will surely cut them to the roots! The Great Elder's expression froze, he sensed that something was wrong, and quickly urged the magic shield.
The blood did not gradually dry up, but slowly swam on the ground, suddenly turning into a river of blood, circling around the Great Elder. Countless claws stretched out from the blood river, breaking free from countless humanoid monsters with fangs and claws, roaring like a Styx ghost and pounced on the Great Elder, fangs and claws attacking the magic shield, sparking sparks.
Let the wind blow from all sides, I will stand still.
The Great Elder's Staff pestle the ground, as steady as Mount Tai.
The river of blood contracted and turned into a man's figure again, his face was still pale, but the face of the Great Elder had already taken some attention. This old guy's defense, he will not be able to break through it for a while, and it will only be a waste of time to consume it.
"Old turtle, I'll let you go for the time being." Vladimir retracted his mana fluctuation.
"But I need to know, why did you come to Ionia?"
"You don't need to know."
"Do you think I don't know if I don't say it?" Vladimir's pale face had a cold smile and bared his fangs. "Is it for that thing?"
The Great Elder's eyelids jumped.
"Although I don't know where you got the news, I can only warn you, if you don't want to turn into my blood, you will leave with this group of straw bales of yours."
Vladimir's tone was full of menace. No one doubted that he could not do what he said.
Cold sweat oozed from the palms of the apprentices.
The Great Elder's gaze was calm. "If you can do it, give it a try."
Looking at the apprentice mage behind him, Vladimir was furious. But he couldn't help it, if there was an all-out war, regardless of whether he won or lost, these magicians behind him would definitely not survive, and then his mission would not be completed. After much thought, Vladimir snorted angrily.
"Let's go."
The Great Elder watched them disappear from view before he breathed a sigh of relief and put away his earthy yellow magic shield. Between the seemingly simple attack and defense just now, in fact, the mana consumption is huge, and the man's attack power is very strong. But the other party will definitely not feel good.
The battle had devastated the ground. The Great Elder and that man were both mortal-level pinnacle existences, and they were only one step away from stepping into the transcendental, thus becoming existences with a respected status in the Rune Continent. As for the transcendental, there is the legendary flying upgrade?
The Great Elder shook his head secretly. How can an existence that exists only in epic biographies be true? It's just a fabrication of people who are desperate for power.
The blood on the ground has not yet dried up.
Lux frowned suddenly, and the white gold glint in her eyes bloomed. She sensed something, and with a flick of her hand, a white shield of light quickly enveloped the Great Elder's body!
"Great Elder, be careful!" The apprentices were all startled by her movements, and then they heard a muffled sound, only to see that the blood on the ground had exploded into a blood mist and slowly dissipated.
The blood mist dissipated, and a trace of scarlet oozed from the corner of the Great Elder's mouth. The moment Lux reminded him, he also felt a small wave of riotous magic waves coming at him, and before he had time to think, he instinctively opened the magic shield. Unfortunately, he was in a hurry, and the aftermath still shook him.
Is it the blood that those two little snakes turned into just now? The Great Elder's gaze was cold. In terms of mana alone, the two were comparable, but the man had already left a back hand at the beginning of the attack, but after the truce, he suddenly attacked, which was unguardable.
Insidious, non-moral, extremely experienced in combat. Coupled with the heavy smell of blood that always surrounds him, Vladimir, how many people did he have to kill......
The apprentices looked at Lux with shock. If I'm not mistaken, Lux's reaction just now was one step faster than the Great Elder... Is it a coincidence?
And Bosch was left with nothing but awe. The hidden strength of this girl is terrifying.
In the distance, Vladimir sneered. This attack won't kill the old guy, but it will hit him hard! At least until the fight for that thing, the injury can't be recovered.
