Chapter 6 The Lost City Chapter 41 The Bitter Battle (Part II)
Chapter 41: The Bitter Battle (Part II)
Sima Nan had gained the upper hand in a substantial sense for the first time in the confrontation with Ruan Zhan, which made him feel comfortable and couldn't help but smile proudly.
However, this smile only lasted for a moment before it froze on his lips, because a large blue electric spark composed of three palm thunderbolts flew straight out of the flower pond and hit Sima Nan!
This distance of more than ten meters may take more than ten or twenty steps for human movement, but for the palm thunder that is hit, it is just a blink of an eye.
Sima Nan deserves to be a person with profound Taoism, and when he saw this, he didn't panic at all, but just snorted coldly, "Carving insect skills!" He also shot out with a palm thunder, "Watch my palm thunder break your palm thunder!" ”
The two beautiful blue electric sparks met for the second time in mid-air, and they also made a loud noise, but this time it was Ruan Zhan's hand that moved first, and the palm thunder shot quickly and quickly, so the explosion site was closer to Sima Nan.
But Sima Nan's palm thunder slammed into Ruan Zhan's palm thunder like a heavy hammer, splitting Ruan Zhan's palm thunder in half like knocking a walnut, and hit the ground in two parts, instantly shattering the bricks on the ground into two lightning-like cracks. And Sima Nan's palm thunder struck at the opposite flower pond after suffocating for a while, hitting the place where Ruan Zhan fell impartially!
Flowers and plants flew in a flew, and the entire lush flower pond was blasted to the point that only a pile of scorched earth remained, and even the walls of the surrounding hard stone flower ponds were blown into small pieces and scattered everywhere! If there are people in the flower pond, they will definitely not survive!
It's just that Sima Nan hit the flower pond that Ruan Zhan fell into, but what was completely destroyed was another flower pond ten meters away!
Sima Nan was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood what was going on, and couldn't help but be angry, feeling like he had been scratched by a cat's paws, "Transfer technique!" He roared lowly, "She actually taught you the art of transfer!" ”
"Any comments?" Ruan Zhan climbed out of the flower pond, although he looked extremely embarrassed, but his expression was a little arrogant and bantering, and he deliberately said proudly, "Now learn and sell, I hope it can still enter your eyes!" ”
It was too difficult for him to face off against the well-prepared Sima Nan, and in order to achieve his goal, in order to introduce the decisive battle into his prior plan, he had to take risks everywhere. On the surface, it seems that the two of them are in the stage of stalemate, but in fact, Sima Nan is just trying his best, and he has to gamble like a gamble in every round, otherwise one of them will die if he is not careful!
In this case, he can only give Sima Nan a move, one husband is desperate, and ten thousand people can't stop him!
Sima Nan's ferocious blow just now, he couldn't dodge it in his passivity at all, so he had to use the 'transfer technique' taught by Abaya Ban in a hurry. He had seen Guan Zheng and Ah Wu use it before, but he himself had not officially used it once, and he had to do it as a last resort at this moment, and he couldn't predict the result. If successful, this deadly attack will be avoided, and the following scene will be sung; If he doesn't succeed, he will definitely meet Hades directly!
Fortunately, he succeeded, maybe when people's lives are threatened, they will stimulate great potential, and they can do things that they can't usually do, or maybe he is really a genius in Taoism, as Abayaban said. But in any case, he avoided this catastrophe again, and he could see that this was a big blow to Sima Nan.
"She actually taught you how to deal with me!" Sima Nan continued to murmur and roar, seeing Ruan Zhan standing in the flower pond looking at him condescendingly, the anger in his chest became even hotter, and he waved a fire handprint towards Ruan Zhan.
The fire handprint he hit was ruthless and urgent, much more powerful than Ruan Zhan's, so that Ruan Zhan couldn't make a hard connection, so he had to use the half-baked transfer technique to pull it to the left, barely transferring the damage, but he didn't judge the direction in the hurry.
With a snap, the fire mudra was moved to the top of the cloister in the lake. Except for the stone floor, the rest of the cloister is made of wood, and when you encounter this fierce fire handprint, you immediately burst into flames!
Oops! The fire burned too close to the tower! I hope Sima Nan won't use this fire to sabotage his plans! You have to do it early!
Ruan Zhan quickly calculated in his heart.
In Sima Nan's eyes, this fire had no effect at all, and at this moment he had an indescribable emotion in his heart, in addition to being very shocked that Ruan Zhan had learned the transfer technique so quickly, he had to endure the pain of the fangs of jealousy and resentment biting the softest part of his heart.
Ah Bai actually taught Ruan Zhan the transfer technique, but she never taught him!
Transfer, Water Vision, Foreknowledge - many secret techniques of the Witch Sect, he really wanted to learn, but although Ah Bai understood the truth of the same sect of the Great Dao, he had always adhered to the inheritance of their Witch Sect and refused to teach him, he just relied on the words that Ah Bai inadvertently leaked to find out the Water Perception Technique!
But Ah Bai taught the transfer technique to the irrelevant Ruan Zhan, why is this? Isn't she holding on to the door anymore? Why Ruan Zhan? The hardest thing for him to endure is that it is clearly against him!
All along, he knew that he was sorry for Ah Bai, who imprisoned her alone in that dry well, and let her be lonely, he had never seen her once for decades, but he had to do it as a last resort, if he had a choice, how could he treat her like this! How many times in the middle of the night he would dream of her gentle and sad eyes, and he would feel that this was the only wrong thing he had done in his life. When he thinks of her, he will feel that it doesn't matter if everyone in the world scolds him, at least one woman will always love him and will not betray him or hurt him!
But now that this dream is shattered, she actually helps others deal with him! Although he understood that she would never fall in love with this kid Ruan Zhan, any trace of betrayal made him unbearable, just because that person was Ah Bai!
In anger, he looked at Ruan Zhan.
I saw Ruan Zhan still standing on the flower pond, although he was scarred and covered with blood, his back was straight, and behind him was the raging flames burning in the corridor, his left hand stretched out two fingers and pointed directly at him, and his right hand had been drawn into a talisman in the void. From his point of view, not only did he not look like the slightest defeat, but he looked majestic, like a god of war, and his dark eyes shot him like a cold arrow!
"It's my turn!" Ruan Zhan said.
What was his turn? Sima Nan didn't understand what Ruan Zhan meant because of the momentary distraction just now.
The corners of Ruan Zhan's mouth moved slightly, as if he was smiling, which made Sima Nan feel that something was wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong. I saw Ruan Zhan flick the drawn invisible charm lightly, and the target was behind Sima Nan!
In an instant, Sima Nan's heart was cold, and he understood Ruan Zhan's intentions.
In order to control the beasts and reptiles that were transformed by origami, he cast spells with both hands, so he placed the wooden box he carried with him on the ground. And Ruan Zhan's goal turned out not to hit him, but his wooden box. Inside the wooden box were many origami papers he had folded in advance, and they were his most proficient and favorite paper longitudinal techniques. Originally, he wanted to use this to deal with Ruan Zhan, even if he couldn't kill him, the number of those paper demons would make Ruan Zhan tired and half dead in order to deal with these, and then he would win nine times out of ten.
But before these origami were cast by him, especially without his blood ban, they were no different from ordinary paper, and ordinary fires could burn them, not to mention the fire with mana like fire mudras.
At this time, he realized that Ruan Zhan's three palm thunders in a row were not as powerful as one palm thunder for him, which was an illusion for him! Ruan Zhan's skills are indeed inferior to him, but the gap is by no means that big, Ruan Zhan deliberately let his palm thunder be smashed to the ground! Because he actually hid a fire mudra between the three palm thunders!
The fire handprint was hidden and secret, and with the downed palm mine diving into the ground, like a time bomb buried at his feet, he didn't notice anything unusual at all.
It wasn't until the thunder in his palm hit the flower pond that Ruan Zhan drew his attention to that side, and then the Void Drawing Talisman urged the fire handprint to cast it. Before he had time to react, two thin lines of fire stretched out from the lightning-like cracks that had been smashed out of the ground just now, and attacked the wooden box full of 'ammunition' in two directions, left and right.
Sima Nan understood Ruan Zhan's intentions, reacted quickly, and immediately struck the wooden box with his palm, calculating in his heart: even if the wooden box is smashed and broken, it can't be burned, so that at least some of the treasures he prepared in advance can be kept!
But when he made his move, Ruan Zhan, who had already cast the fire handprint, also freed his hand. He struck Sima Nan directly in the back of the head with a palm thunder, and he didn't hesitate at all, so that Sima Nanda had to hurriedly turn around and protect himself with one hand.
Two sounds rang out, and two more blue flames collided in mid-air, Ruan Zhan took two steps back, almost falling again, but a smile appeared on his face.
Sima Nan didn't have to look back, he also understood that his wooden box was completely destroyed. Although he cut off one line of fire with one hand, because he used the other hand to receive Ruan Zhan's attack, one of the two lines of fire still hit the wooden box. Although the fire was weak, it was enough to ruin all his meticulous preparations!
"You're amazing!" He said through gritted teeth.
Every time I saw Ruan Zhan, he became stronger and stronger, which showed that he was indeed talented. And he is ruthless enough to dare to risk his life. But the most important thing is that although he seems to be cold, as if he doesn't care about anything, in fact, when he really fights, he will know that he is very calm and flexible in actual combat, and he is simply full of opportunities.
Sima Nan once again deeply felt how difficult Ruan Zhan was to deal with, but the matter had come to this point, he had no choice, he must be more ruthless and stronger than Ruan Zhan, otherwise he would fail, and then he would have nothing to pursue in this life!
Thinking of this, he turned his heart on the side and suddenly laughed.
"Do you think I'll only be able to use paper longitudinal against you?" He sneered, "Lao Tzu has more ways to deal with you, you can take it!" As he spoke, he suddenly took out two golden brass bells from his body. Each bell was the size of a fist, and I didn't know where he was hiding on his body, and it was not visible from his snow-white Chinese clothes.
Ruan Zhan looked at Sima Nan cautiously, and his whole body was in a state of preparation. He understood that Sima Nan definitely had other ways to deal with him, so he would never dare to slack off.
Judging from Sima Nan's tricks, he was even more sure that there must be a great relationship between them, because Sima Nan knew everything he knew, and from Sima Nan's methods of using these tricks, it was really decent. But if you look closely, you will also find some slight differences between their techniques.
He was ignorant when he was a child, and he was always very resistant to what his father taught him. It's just that his father forced him to memorize many theories and spells, as well as methods to study and buy in the future, so although he didn't know how to use them, he figured them out one by one in various actual battles later.
So, is this the reason for the difference between his spells and Sima Nan's? If we deduce in this way, there are two results: first, Sima Nan is the same sect as his father, and because he has no guidance and only relies on his own enlightenment, his methods are not authentic; Second, Sima Nan is not the same faction as him, but secretly learned the spells of his father's faction, and Sima Nan's methods are not authentic.
It's not impossible, Sima Nan is a Taoist idiot, and his learning is very miscellaneous, didn't he once want to learn the secret art of Abayaban, and he also learned the Japanese Yin and Yang technique? also exchanged Chinese magic for the reincarnation technique of the Japanese Matsui family, although they deceived each other, but in the end Sima Nan realized the true law, so that he is now basically in a state of resurrection.
These circumstances filled Ruan Zhan's heart with doubts, and he suddenly had a strong feeling that he was likely to get a lot of secrets about his own background and his father from Sima Nan's mouth.
Jingle - Jingle -
Two crisp bells pulled Ruan Zhan's thoughts back.
Not only that, although the bell was very slight, it pierced into the ear drum of the person, which was breathtaking, making Ruan Zhan feel like he was being knocked on the heart.
"Isn't it comfortable?" Sima Nan glanced at Ruan Zhan contemptuously. I saw that Ruan Zhan's face was pale and a little panting.
"Boy, it's called a soul bell." He smiled proudly, and while ringing the bell one by one, he approached Ruan Zhan step by step, "Ordinary Taoist priests will only use him to deal with ghosts, but they never understand that everything has a soul, as long as they break through the appearance, no soul can escape!" ”
He stopped talking, sped up the frequency of the rattle, silently recited the incantation in his mouth, and cast spells on Ruan Zhan with all his heart.
At this time, Ruan Zhan was preparing to deal with Sima Nan's ferocious attack with all his heart, but he didn't expect him to suddenly cast this kind of spell similar to a soft knife, and he was caught off guard and immediately hit!
He only felt a hand reach into his body, and every time the brass bell rang, that hand grabbed his heart. It didn't hurt, but there was an indescribable feeling, as if the heart was about to be shattered by the crisp bell, and the blood flowed with the rhythm of the bell, and the whole body was extremely sore, unable to exert strength at all, and the limbs were not their own.
He knew that he had fallen for Sima Nan's trick and was controlled by his mind, so he desperately struggled to get rid of this invisible bondage, but he couldn't raise his hand to block his ears, let alone draw talismans, and his legs became weaker and weaker, and he knelt on one knee uncontrollably.
The bell still invaded his heart unhurriedly, and Ruan Zhan refused to admit defeat, gritting his teeth and trying to get back up. He held the ground with one hand and pulled the small flowers and trees in the middle of the flower pond with the other and kept trying, resisting the pressure from his own soul, but it had no effect at all. Not only did he not get back up, but his body fell lower and lower, until he spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell straight down from the half-meter-high flower pond!
Sima Nan smiled.
