Chapter 404: Stalemate
Taro Morino didn't have the speed and power to fight his opponent, and he chose to back down at the right time. Because he expects that his opponent has a stronger back-up move waiting for him, and if he catches up, he will inevitably fight his opponent again. So he dodged to the side.
Luo Ming didn't see his opponent for a while, and he was also taken aback, and immediately understood the opponent's sophistication and experience. Before he could find his opponent's position, he immediately dodged and retreated, faster than when he came.
His reaction proved to be correct. Following his receding figure, a fire surged in, almost burning off his eyebrows. It turned out that Taro Morino's sword skill "Flame Slash" was surging. He was hiding behind a big tree, so Luo Ming couldn't spot him at once. Unable to attack him immediately, Luo Ming retreated for safety.
Taro Morino wasted no time in launching a counterattack. But in order to hurry up, he didn't chase out from behind the tree, but directly slashed at the trunk of the big tree, which affected the power of his skills. The big tree was split in the middle, and the raging fire quickly burned more than forty meters away, almost burning Luo Ming, who had retreated. If it weren't for that big tree blocking it, Luo Ming would have been burned by the fire no matter how fast he retreated. You can imagine the power of this skill.
The skills of the Taidao series are mainly physical output, but only these second and third level skills have both status attacks.
Taro Morino knew he had a rare opponent. To his annoyance, he unleashed three skills in a row, each more powerful than the other, but failed to hurt his opponent in the slightest, something he had never seen before. In desperation, he had to increase the intensity of his attack.
Mori Ye strode over the trunk of the tree that was chopped down by him in front of him, followed Qin Tianzhu's backward and flashing figure, roared, brandished a shiny long knife, and issued an even more powerful skill - the fourth skill of the Taidao series, "Serial Slash". In an instant, one after another criss-crossing waves of white qi emanated from his sword, chasing Luo Ming with unparalleled might.
Ordinary people use this trick "chain slash" to emit at most three sword qi, and when razor Itagaki fights against people, he once emits five sword qi. And this Taro Morino, in an instant, sent out a total of seven extremely lethal qi waves.
While he was making a move, Luo Ming was not idle. Under the background of the dark clouds, lightning and thunder in the dark clouds of Xiao Yu's heavenly tribulation, Luo Ming finally saw the specific direction of the opponent in the high-speed retreat, and accurately hit a double Yan break. A columnar lightning waterfall with a diameter of nearly two meters burst into the sky and smashed on the top of Taro Morino's head.
Luo Ming knew that he must not be careless in the face of the opponent in front of him. This person's martial arts are unfathomable, and he can not only rely on his own thunderbolt skills to deal with it alone. In dealing with him, we must attack and defend, advance and retreat, and adopt multi-means, multi-directional, flexible and mobile response measures. Otherwise, if you are not careful, you will lead to a situation where you will lose all the games.
Therefore, he released the bone soul early, and soon adopted a variety of methods such as stone attacks and hard crossbow shots, in order to gain an advantage as soon as possible. In the lightning exchange just now, he not only managed to attack and defend, but even if he retreated, he did not forget to launch a counterattack at the same time. While retreating like lightning, he uses his most powerful skill, "Double Flame Break", to fight back.
However, what he didn't expect was that Morino's counterattack was even sharper than he imagined. The seven sword qi that was like a rainbow surging like a chain of cannons. Luo Ming couldn't hide, and he had nothing to borrow from in the air, so he hurriedly stretched out his hands back. Luckily, he grabbed a thin branch at once, and was finally able to change his direction and swing backwards to the right. But he still couldn't completely avoid the opponent's attack, and was swept to the chest by the flanks of two waves of air.
Hearing only two loud bangs, Luo Ming, who was protected by armor, couldn't withstand the blow and spurted out a mouthful of blood.
"Oh my God!" Luo Ming thought with palpitations: "The flanks of the two sword qi have such great power, so if he lets all the seven qi waves hit him in a real way, if my little life can still be here, it will be simply unreasonable." It's no wonder that when I said that I was going to Fairy Island, the cautious and solemn expression on the face of that Divine Sword Wanli Yuwen Ba didn't seem to be so willing to mention it. Just look at this attack, it's fast and fierce!
Taro Morino's situation is not so good either. He was full of plans to take the other party's life at this moment, but he didn't expect that the other party not only let go of the front of all seven attack qi waves at the last moment, but also launched such a powerful counterattack.
The thick pillars of electricity formed by countless bright lightning currents completely numbed his whole body. His clothes, hair, and eyebrows immediately burst into flames, and lightning simultaneously left thick, striking, black, charred marks on his bare head, shoulders, chest, and the ground around him. Even the knife in his hand was almost blown away by lightning. There was a foul smell of burnt fire in the air.
Taro Morino was also bleeding from his mouth and nose when he was hit by this electric shock, and he was embarrassed.
After that bright and dazzling lightning streaked by, he felt that it was so dark in front of him that he couldn't see anything clearly. He knew it was a temporary visual impairment after a bright light that would soon recover. But the problem now is that he is currently fighting an opponent who is extremely fast, and this brief blur of vision makes it impossible for him to see the opponent's position at all, isn't it almost killing him?
Once again, the experienced Taro Morino made the choice to retreat. But the cunning Morino did not retreat alone, and in order to protect himself, he once again issued the Taidao skill "Serial Slash". This time, he relied on his extremely fast speed to swing the long knife in his hand horizontally into a fan.
With each wave of qi, the practitioner needs to make a brief pause with the weapon in his hand. However, Taro Morino's speed was so fast that he made seven pauses in a row. But in the eyes of ordinary people, the knife seemed to be just a swing, as smooth as a cloud of water, and there was no pause at all, and seven waves of white qi carrying the breath of death were fanned out, shooting out within a range of about one hundred and sixty degrees in front of him.
As long as his opponent hasn't rounded his flank, he's safe for now.
Luo Ming ignored the intense feeling of his physical injury. Before he could finish spraying a mouthful of blood, he hurried to launch a new attack. He first unleashed a fire skill, "Black Yan Po." Then he jumped up and threw the Lan Yan Spirit Sword at the opponent with the technique of "Charged Finger".
