Chapter Twenty-Four: A Familiar Knife and Sword Duel
As Lin Tianxiang showed his amazing strength one after another and defeated Simmons, a saint-level old hunter, all forces vying for the artifact "Apocalypse" tacitly decided on the same course of action - to stand on the forbidden land first.
Even if the day of the apocalypse is not yet opened, there is no way to unseal it in advance like Simmons, at least to seize the initiative in the royal forbidden land first. Originally, there was no need to be so complicated, but now Lin Tianxiang was amazed by the power of time, and everything was palpitating.
If you don't solve him now, wait for the New Year?
Of course, anyone can fight the abacus, but it is still quite difficult to act.
Even if Lin Tianxiang can't use the power of time now, his own strength should not be underestimated, and it is difficult to guarantee that he still retains any hole cards. What's more, there is a ghost immortal behind him who has been restored by the divine power of time.
On the other battlefield, the smoke and rain were as soft as ghosts and gods, and they couldn't come over for the time being.
So, the current situation is still in a delicate stalemate.
Until......
A bluefriar stepped forward.
Judging by his appearance and dress, it is obvious that he is a native monk.
As mentioned earlier, as a unique profession in the land of Shenzhou, although there are very few cultivators, their popularity is still among the top in the world. After all, the heroes of the East, in terms of individual combat ability, are recognized as the world's forefront.
As an aside, the scarcity of cultivators mentioned here is actually only relative. According to the statistics of the Hanging Sword Database, there are currently a total of 336 registered sects, and the number of cultivators is 117,022. Looking at it this way, it's actually not a lot. It's just that compared to the magic associations all over the world, the number of people is not even a fraction of the number.
Therefore, when a cultivator appeared, he instantly became the focus of the audience. All the forces looked at this guy who was the first to eat a crab like a rare animal.
Those who compete for a world-class artifact like the Apocalypse are all bigwig-level forces or characters with heads and faces. Even if it is a cultivator, ordinary passers-by will not attract too much attention.
This first one who dared to stand up was obviously not a trick.
Even many foreign forces recognized this blue-clothed swordsman.
This person, named Jian Wuying, is a famous sword cultivator in the East. There is no door and no faction, and he is a guy who likes to be alone. The name Jian Wuying is naturally not his real name, and his real name is estimated to be unknown to no one except me, but this is not important, because the name "Jian Wuying" can better represent something.
He is not a flamboyant person, he has no enemies and no friends.
Whoever becomes his enemy will disappear from this world in the next second.
And because of his strong martial arts, he thinks he is high, and ordinary people are not worthy of being his friends.
His swordsmanship came and went without a trace.
In the entire martial arts, no one has ever seen his swordsmanship...... To be precise, no living person has ever seen it. Because of this, this makes Jian Wuying even more interesting to those present.
As a lone ranger, no matter how powerful Jian Wuying is, it is impossible to kill all the people present who have seen his swordsmanship, right? Not to mention...... In this wave of people, there are many guys whose strength is similar to him, or even stronger than him.
Of course, the legend of Jian Wuying has a lot to do with his loner personality. After all, it's not always the time when a group of superbosses can get together to watch a show.
"Jian Wuying and Lin Tianxiang, who is strong and who is weak?" As the tension raged, a few more people began to discuss, and a middle-aged man asked.
"It's hard to say, although Lin Tianxiang is strong, he has been consumed in the battle with Simmons, and his strength has been greatly reduced." The old man standing next to him replied.
Dahan said: "The sword technique of Jian Wuying is very strong. β
"Very strong." The old man said: "With the swordsmanship that comes and goes without a trace, he is a first-class master in the martial arts. β
Dahan said again: "But the opponent's sword skills are not weak. β
The old man nodded: "Not weak." β
Just as the two were talking, in the center of the battlefield, Lin Tianxiang and Jian Wuying started the first round of confrontation.
The two sides are tied.
"You, why bother?" Lin Tianxiang asked calmly.
"Then you, why bother?" Jian Wuying asked rhetorically.
"Hehe......" Lin Tianxiang shrugged and smiled.
The wind is drifting.
Better than a knife.
In a moment, another round of lightning attack and defense were staggered.
Jian Wuying is not a good person, nor is he a villain.
But he is a lonely man, a narrow-minded person who may kill if he disagrees.
With that smile, Jian Wuying only felt that he had been mocked, an insult.
Lin Tianxiang's reaction showed that he regarded Jian Wuying as just an insignificant person, a tool used by the forces to test how much strength he still had.
The reason why he was the first to dare to step forward to face the battle was because of absolute self-confidence.
With the strength of a mortal, he could not defeat his outstanding swordsmanship.
He didn't care about the book of Revelation, and he knew that it wasn't something he could possess. He came here with only one purpose, to prove his strength and make himself stronger.
"Without that power, you're just a piece of waste." Jian Wuying's tone was cold, and his eyes were also cold. "Some people, relying on borrowed things to run rampant in the world, think they are a strong man, but they don't know it...... I don't know that I am nothing without external objects. β
As he spoke, he drew another sword.
It seems to be unremarkable, but it dances with a breathtaking coldness.
But it's so fast that it can't be seen clearly with the naked eye, and it can't even use the Tang knife, Lin Tianxiang just walked around dodging the opponent's continuous attacks, while mocking again and again: "It's very fast~ The speech just now is quite like that." β
Lin Tianxiang paused for a moment, and then said the following: "In your words...... Could it be that you created the "Streamer Shadowless Sword" yourself? β
These words were like a hammer slamming into Jian Wuying's chest, and Jian Wuying was even shocked to the point that his attack stopped. He kept a calm face, trying to hide the complex emotions in his heart, and said in a flat tone: "How do you know? β
"Hehe......" Lin Tianxiang laughed deeper, "I want to know?" Then beg me! If you don't ask me, how can I tell you? If you want me to say it, I'll just say how shameless it is? β
In response to him, Sword Shadowless attacked even more chillingly.
Streamer Shadowless Sword. Water cut-off.
This sword is like a stormy wave, the sword rises and falls, and the momentum is like thunder.
Whenβ
This time, the pitch-black knife steadily caught the full force of Jian Wuying's blow.
"Streamer Shadowless Sword, pay attention to inner peace, the more calm the sword, the stronger the power of the sword......" Lin Tianxiang said with a bit of banter, "And now, you seem to be calm, but your heart is burning with anger, right?" β
As he spoke, he flicked his sword away, raised his right hand slightly, and unleashed nine consecutive strikes as if dancing. "Right and wrong do not cross the Lechuan River."
With the elegant and gorgeous combos like poetry, every knife and style rolled up a strong vacuum wave. In the blink of an eye, Lin Tianxiang's ninth company had come out, making a dangerous move, and urging his life.
"It can't be! The speed of each move is actually above the water cut! β
Although Jian Wuying didn't want to admit it, this round of attack and defense, whether in strength, speed or moves, was inferior, that extreme killing intent from the Nine Shadows Yellow Spring, he didn't seem to be fighting against an ordinary swordsman, but against a Shura from hell.
"I'm going to make a quick decision, Sword Shadowless." After a round of attacks, Lin Tianxiang calmed down, with a demonic grin, and the third form of Huangquandu followed......
