Chapter Twenty-Four: Three Strikes One
At this moment, Lin Yu, who had recovered his senses, attacked again, but his target was still the aging Su Jingzhi. Unlike Xu Chen, he used his mind more often to deal with enemies than his own mana.
It doesn't matter if you can't beat Hu Yukun, as long as you can hold Su Jingzhi hostage, Hu Yukun will definitely throw a rat bogey, and it will not be easy for them to lose this battle!
The Xuanbing spear turned into a long rainbow and stabbed at Su Jingzhi again, this time, Lin Yu was worried that he would stab this old guy to death with one shot, so he only used two percent of his mana.
Zhao Lei saw that the eldest brother made a move, so he naturally raised his knife and slashed at Su Jingzhi, and the two joined forces to take Su Jingzhi down, otherwise, after Hu Yukun cleaned up Xu Chen, their situation would not be good.
Lin Yu's strategy can be said to be very wise, even a little vicious!
This is also what people often say about fighting poison with poison, dealing with people like Su Jingzhi's master and apprentice, and they must not talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality, otherwise they will be the ones who will die.
At a critical moment, Lin Yu didn't have as many worries as Xu Chen, and he was very shrewd in his calculations, but he still neglected one point, that is, he underestimated Hu Yukun's strength, and because of this, he lost his previous achievements.
"Damn!" Hu Yukun suddenly saw Lin Yu's sinister intentions, and while fighting with Xu Chen, he freed his hand, and directly condensed his qi into a whip and pumped it at Lin Yu in the air!
With a "snap", Lin Yu's back was suddenly hit, and a large mouthful of blood spurted out with a "wow", and the spear also lost its crosshairs, brushed past Su Jingzhi's side, and pierced into the wall behind him.
Hu Yukun's long whip swept over and hit Zhao Lei's legs, immediately causing him to fall into the mud and unable to get up for a long time.
Seeing that in an instant, Hu Yukun thwarted his attempt, Lin Yu couldn't help but show a look of horror in his eyes, he pulled Zhao Lei up, turned around and wanted to escape.
Hu Yukun would not let Lin Yu escape from his hands easily, and as soon as his right hand flipped over, the long whip came out of his hand and turned into an extremely powerful sword that flew towards Lin Yu and Zhao Lei.
"Dang!"
There was a loud bang, and Xu Chen came in time at the critical moment, and the sword slashed on this sword, and the sword shot out by Hu Yukun broke off in response!
"I said, your opponent is me!"
"Very good, you are going to die today, and God can't save you!" Hu Yukun roared like a demon.
Xu Chen replied unceremoniously: "Even if the master dies, he will not kneel down and worship a false god like you!"
I had to admit in my heart that the person in front of him had brought him a lot of pressure, and Xu Chen even suspected that Hu Yukun's true cultivation could already compete with the God Kings and Demon Lords, and he didn't have the capital to fight against him at all.
However, this battle was inevitable, although he and Hu Yukun had the same purpose, that is, to find Lin Yunshang for revenge, but Xu Chen knew that he and their master and apprentice were not all the way, and he would never use such cruel means to gain great strength.
So he will not give in to Su Jingzhi, this battle must defeat Hu Yukun, there is no way out!
Hu Yukun took the lead in attacking Xu Chen, and a strong golden light burst out from his palm, which scattered into thousands of subtle rays of light in the air, like countless steel needles, and shot straight towards Xu Chen.
In the blink of an eye, these broken lights forced in front of Xu Chen's eyes, and at the same time, they also shrouded Lin Yu and Zhao Lei, who wanted to escape.
"I'll fight with you!"
Xu Chen shouted violently, and the cold ice sword danced countless sword flowers, and greeted him fearlessly.
Seeing Xu Chen taking the lead, Lin Yu suddenly felt a little ashamed, he hurriedly shook the Xuanbing spear in his hand, and his own Qi Transformation Realm cultivation was vented without reservation, in order to resist Hu Yukun's attack.
Zhao Lei, who had always been unconditionally obedient to Lin Yu, saw that his eldest brother had made a move, and he also gave up the idea of escaping, brandishing a big knife and suddenly rushing out, the sharp knife cut a string of sparks in the air, and rolled out wildly with a whistling sound.
The three of them worked together, and suddenly all the needle rain shot out by Hu Yukun came to naught, and countless steel flowers splashed in all directions, blooming like fireworks and then falling silent.
Moving at will, Hu Yukun temporarily took a defensive position when he saw the ferocity, and while he retreated backwards to avoid the attacks of the three, he quietly gathered his true qi in his hands.
With a flash of golden light in his hand, a long sword suddenly stabbed towards Lin Yu.
He had already seen that Lin Yu was the most cunning of the three, and he had always wanted to plot against his master, so he took the lead in attacking Lin Yu, preparing to deal with Xu Chen and Zhao Lei after dealing with this guy.
Lin Yu reacted quickly, hurriedly put away the gun, and quickly retreated. But Hu Yukun's long sword followed, and although the speed at which he retreated was fast, it was still not faster than Hu Yukun's attack speed.
"Qiang!" The sound of breaking the air sounded, and Xu Chen saw that Lin Yu was in a passive state, and helped again.
He also learned from Hu Yukun, using his true qi to turn the cold ice sword in his hand into a long whip that shone with cold blue light, and entangled the opponent's attacking long sword with a wave of his hand, thus buying Lin Yu time and allowing him to escape from Hu Yukun's clutches unharmed.
He knew that this was just an expedient measure, and with Hu Yukun's strength, it wouldn't take long for him to break free from his long whip and launch a new attack.
The fact was as he expected, Hu Yukun didn't even look at it, his right hand shook slightly, and a golden light burst out from the long sword, cutting off the long whip wrapped around the sword like a sharp knife.
Lin Yu didn't dare to slack off, the Xuanbing spear swept over, and this time it was a killing move that covered Hu Yukun's body in all directions.
Hu Yukun smiled gloomily, his wrist flicked, and the long sword just danced at will, so he easily defused Lin Yu's attack and quickly stabbed at his chest.
Following a sharp sword that arrived in front of Hu Yukun, Zhao Lei's attack appeared at the right time. But Hu Yukun's sword blade seemed to roll up a strange air flow at this moment, Zhao Lei's blade lost control without warning, and the powerful pressure passed through the knife edge, and he was shocked away by this strange sword qi before he woke up.
A look of surprise flashed in Xu Chen's eyes, Hu Yukun's strength was simply elusive. His current trick seems to be using the aura of gold, but with the power of yin and cold, can he use the aura of two attributes at the same time?
Xu Chen couldn't help but think of the spells that Master Pure Space had cast, and he found that Hu Yukun was somewhat similar to the master in this regard, but Hu Yukun's spells were even more gloomy and weird, but it was really like what Su Jingzhi said, this is not a spell cultivation that humans have, it is completely close to the power of gods.
Shocked, he couldn't help but blurt out, "What kind of evil spell are you cultivating?"
Hu Yukun sneered, and a devastating terrifying aura erupted instantly, followed by a straight sword stabbing at Xu Chen's heart.
Xu Chen hurriedly retreated, and at the same time, condensing qi into a sword clenched in his hand, waiting for an opportunity to launch a new counterattack. But Hu Yukun chased after him reluctantly, followed by a sword slash, and fiercely suppressed it.
"Block!" Xu Chen, who was driven to a dead end, shouted and swung his sword to meet him, and at this moment Hu Yukun's strong and terrifying momentum firmly locked him, but forced Xu Chen to subconsciously stimulate his strength.
As the metal impact of gold and iron collided sounded, Xu Chen drew his sword with the trend, and a half-moon-shaped sword slashed out, flying directly into the sky.
Suddenly, seven swords flashing with cold light appeared above Hu Yukun's head, and they slashed at the enemy with lightning speed, and the speed of the attack was also at the limit of Xu Chen's own strength.
The seven sword rays that were imposing in the sky instantly blocked all of Hu Yukun's retreats, and the qi brought out by this blew out, as if everyone suddenly felt that there was an air blade stabbing at them, and their skin was faintly painful.
Lin Yu and Zhao Lei were stunned, they didn't expect Xu Chen to burst out with such amazing energy in a short period of time.
"Hey, hey, a few more moments. A hint of surprise flashed in Hu Yukun's eyes, he didn't expect Xu Chen to have such a strong move, he shook his body like lightning, and instantly withdrew from the attack range of Xu Chen's sword, successfully dodging this blow.
This time it was Xu Chen's turn to be surprised, the blow just now almost used up all the true qi stored in his body, such a powerful move could be easily avoided by Hu Yukun, this guy's strength was completely beyond his imagination.
Seeing that his apprentice had completely gained the upper hand, Su Jingzhiyin, who was watching the battle, said with a smile: "Let the old man tell you the answer, the reason why Kun'er is extremely powerful is because he has obtained the divine power of Dijiang!"
"Dijiang's divine power?" Xu Chen was startled, remembering what happened in the mysterious cave in Chongwu Mountain, could it be because he recklessly pulled out the Vermilion Bird Sword that allowed Dijiang to successfully escape from the cage, so that Su Jingzhi obtained his divine power?
With this thought, Xu Chen felt a little ridiculous, after all, the time he entered that cave was only half a year ago, but Hu Yukun had been following Su Jingzhi for more than ten years since he was a child, how could he cultivate by leaps and bounds in this short period of time, reaching a height that ordinary people could not set foot in.
Further inference, Su Jingzhi was thinking about getting the Xuanwu Shield, and he also told himself that Dijiang's Yuan Shen was sealed in the Divine Shield, but his own experience was another story, he saw with his own eyes that the evil god fled without a trace after the divine sword was drawn, which had nothing to do with the Xuanwu Shield at all.
What's more, Su Jingzhi didn't mention the Vermilion Bird Sword at all when he recounted, as if he didn't know the origin between Dijiang and the Vermilion Bird Sword, which couldn't help but make Xu Chen think in his heart: "Could it be that Su Jingzhi got all the wrong information?"
But a new question arises, how to explain the fact that Hu Yukun is only a few years older than himself and has amazing strength? It seems that there is no more reasonable answer than what Su Jingzhi said that he has obtained the divine power of Dijiang.
Just when Xu Chen was distracted, Hu Yukun had already reached out with his big hand and came at him fiercely.
The golden hand that had made Xu Chen suffer a few times suddenly appeared and slammed down on his head, and the strange aura that he had felt before burst out from Hu Yukun's body like a blowout at this moment.
"Boom!" A terrifying wave of air spread rapidly in the small building, and the air was evaporated into a heat wave, and Lin Yu and Zhao Lei behind Xu Chen retreated again and again, not daring to confront Hu Yukun head-on.
Although Xu Chen's body did not move, fear had begun to take over his brain, and at this moment, not only did his speed become sluggish, but even the true qi in his body became unstable.
