Chapter 49: Born to Die
Lu Bu once talked to Zhang An about the three realms of qi training.
When it came to the realm of Gangqi, Lu Bu only used one sentence to describe Gangqi.
"For attack, nothing is indestructible, for defense, nothing is difficult to break. ”
As for the Gang Qi Realm itself, Lu Bu used eight words to evaluate.
"Under the anger, they are all ants. ”
Zhang An realized the meaning of Lu Bu's two sentences at this moment.
Although it was the first time for him to use the Killing Dao Sword to forcibly improve the realm in an almost self-destructive manner, he himself did not have the experience of controlling the power in line with the Gang Qi Realm, and the transition between attack and defense was extremely sluggish and full of flaws.
And because his own realm is still some way away from the Gang Qi realm, even if he uses the Killing Dao Sword at this time, he is only barely stepping into the Gang Qi realm, and even the armor condensed on his body only has a general appearance, which is very rough.
But he was still pressing the three of them.
What about the flaws?
With Gangqi's strong defense, the attack of the three fell on Zhang An, and it didn't hurt at all.
When Zhang An, who was still dodging attacks at the beginning, found out about this, he completely let go of his hands and feet.
How to bully an enemy whose realm is inferior to oneself?
Naturally, it is the first to recommend the unreasonable and domineering sword!
Zhang An's battle with the three enemies is basically you fight yours, and I fight mine.
The three of them punched and kicked together, using daggers and poison powder together, but Zhang An didn't care about it, he just took care of his own sword.
But compared to the attacks of the three of them, which could not pose a threat to Zhang An, Zhang An was much more of a threat to them.
Zhang An raised his hands and feet now, and they all pressed towards the three of them with endless power, and the three of them couldn't retreat at all in the face of Zhang An's attack.
Because after Zhang An used the domineering sword play, as long as they retreated, Zhang An's momentum would immediately rise by one point, and the strength of the shot would increase by another point.
When they understood this, the three enemies could only grit their teeth and fight hard with Zhang An.
If it weren't for the fact that the three of them have been working together all year round, have a tacit understanding with each other, and can always help each other defend at the last moment, I am afraid that if I can't pass a few moves with Zhang An, I will be defeated.
Rao is like this, and the three of them are still suffering from Zhang An's unreasonable onslaught, and they are all injured.
But they couldn't escape.
They could only choose to complete the task, or be beaten to death by Zhang An.
If they escape, what awaits them is worse than death.
After struggling to survive Zhang An's new onslaught, they began to try to die with Zhang An.
The battle on the field became more and more fierce, and both sides were fighting hard with red eyes, eager to dismantle the enemy in front of them.
However, the trio's struggles were in vain.
After dozens of moves, there were three more corpses on the ground that were not humanoid.
Zhang An gasped and wiped the blood from his mouth, spitting out a mouthful of bloody spit.
These injuries were not inflicted by those three enemies.
It's Zhang An himself.
Because at this time, Zhang An fell into the same situation as the day when the qi was introduced into the body.
His physical strength could not keep up with the sudden increase in qi, so his body gradually collapsed from the inside with each move.
He looked at the last person who was still fighting Xiao Hei.
Without the slightest hesitation, Zhang An rushed straight towards the enemy.
You don't have much time left, and you must get rid of the last enemy at once.
When he saw Zhang An rushing over, the last enemy understated that a few swords would be scarred, and Xiao **, who was holding on hard with a will, retreated, and then turned to face Zhang An, as if he was not worried that Xiao Hei would sneak attack from behind him.
He really didn't have to worry, because after discovering that Zhang An was powerful and could take over the battle, Xiao Hei, who had already squeezed out his last bit of strength, was forced to retreat by the enemy and immediately fainted.
The two of them ran towards each other at the same time, and the distance between the two sides was shrinking.
When the two finally reached the range of each other's attacks, Zhang An still ignored the other party's attacks and was ready to overwhelm people with force.
Who knew that with just one sword, the enemy would have broken through the qi on Zhang An's body, if it wasn't for Zhang An's timely dodge, it wouldn't have been as simple as leaving only a skin wound.
The only one who can break through the gang qi is the gang qi.
Lu Bu's words appeared in Zhang An's mind, which made Zhang An's mouth bitter, and he couldn't help but scold in his heart.
On closer inspection, this last enemy was the one who was sitting firmly on horseback and blocking his charge with a sword.
Zhang Anqi crooked his nose.
This guy is not particular, as a master of gangqi, he even pretended to be a pig and ate a tiger, and put on a similar appearance to Xiao Hei, so that he relaxed his vigilance.
knew that this guy was a master of gangqi, so he found a way to run away with Xiao Hei.
But now it's too late to regret it, the enemy is like a maggot on the tarsal bone to haunt Zhang An, Zhang An can't see any chance to escape at all, so he can only bite the bullet.
While fighting, Zhang An's heart was also puzzled, why didn't this guy make a move earlier?
This last enemy is a master of Gang Qi, and his status is naturally different from that of the other nine.
He is the leader of this team.
Able to survive the brutal family training, and cultivate to become a master of gangqi and be promoted to a commander, his biggest characteristic is prudence.
Therefore, after getting Zhang An's information, it was clear that he could easily defeat Zhang An alone, but he still chose to take nine subordinates to go out together.
When the nine subordinates were fighting with Zhang An, he was dealing with Xiao Hei while observing Zhang An's shooting habits and what moves he had.
The subordinates successfully consumed a lot of Zhang An's physical strength and energy, and forced Zhang An's last hole card out, and he also saw Zhang An's move habits clearly, and he was in his chest.
Although he didn't know why Zhang An had changed his body to the Gang Qi realm, but looking at Zhang An's extremely rough application of the Gang Qi method, he knew that Zhang An's realm was fake, and he must have used some secret technique to forcibly improve.
As long as it is a secret technique, it will have an effective time, and it can forcibly raise people to the realm of gangqi, and this price is not small.
As long as you delay time, you can consume the enemy to death, and you don't need to spend extra effort.
Moreover, compared with killing Zhang An without damage, and his subordinates were wiped out and he turned the tide by himself, which one can show his hard work and high achievement?
The answer is self-explanatory.
What's more, these subordinates are just handy props for the family, and no matter how much they die, they won't feel distressed.
After going back this time, you may be rewarded very richly, right?
After all, the last person he killed was a gang qi master.
While playing his own little abacus, he lightened his strength again, but his body was more ethereal, and he kept circling around Zhang An, not giving Zhang An a chance to get close.
After seeing Zhang An turn one of his subordinates into a dried corpse, he didn't want to end up like this.
In fact, the ability to extract life is not used by Zhang An unless it is absolutely necessary.
After consciously extracting the vitality of his own life, Zhang An discovered a big problem.
The process of extracting vitality and feeding one's body is particularly comfortable, and every time it ends with the extraction of vitality, it will make Zhang An feel unfinished.
This ability faintly has a hint of addiction to Zhang An.
Zhang An thinks that he is not a determined person, in order to avoid his mind falling into that kind of pleasure, Zhang An has long made up his mind that unless he is about to die, he will not use it.
However, Zhang An didn't have a chance even if he wanted to, because the enemy was too cautious, so cautious that he only attacked with a long sword, and when he touched it, he didn't give Zhang An a chance to get close at all.
It doesn't matter if he is cautious, Zhang An is anxious and angry at this time.
The gap between the pseudo realm and the real realm is vividly reflected in Zhang An and the others.
The enemy didn't even have the strength to let go, just by virtue of speed to play with Zhang An in the palm of his hand, he patrolled around Zhang An, but he was not in a hurry to make a move, only occasionally handed out a soft sword, once Zhang An moved, he immediately withdrew the long sword, like a frightened rabbit, quickly transferred his body.
However, the difference in speed between the two is not very large, as long as Zhang An is a little faster, he can keep up with the rhythm of the enemy and find an opportunity to exert his ability to extract vitality.
But it is this difference in speed that is the difference between heaven and hell, life and death.
Seeing that the time was passing minute by minute, and he was already at his limit, the enemy still circled around him unhurriedly, obviously making up his mind to consume himself.
Zhang An gritted his teeth, and a trace of ruthlessness appeared on his face.
He opened his mouth and spewed out a condensed qi sword to attack the enemy, taking advantage of the enemy's dodge to put Zhan Lu into the sheath, waving his hands again and again, and throwing a long sword made of condensed qi at the enemy.
In the face of Zhang An's storm-like offensive, the enemy walked freely in the rain of swords as if he were strolling leisurely, only occasionally swinging his long sword to pick away the long sword that he could not avoid.
This fierce offensive was very short-lived, but after a few breaths, Zhang An stopped what he was doing, his face was pale and bloodless.
"That's it?" the enemy chuckled and swung his sword forward.
Seeing that Zhang An looked exhausted, he could do it himself.
It's just that the enemies who killed Zhang An didn't notice that the long swords that were flashed by him were still lying quietly on the ground and did not dissipate.
Facing the enemy's attack, Zhang An showed a cruel smile and pounced directly.
The long sword slowly passed through the vague armor of Zhang An's body, and stabbed towards Zhang An's heart unswervingly.
But the enemy who won the blow frowned, Zhang An has been fighting bloodily until now, and he doesn't look like a person who will take the initiative to die.
The enemy was ready to draw his sword and immediately retreat.
But at this time, his long sword was held by Zhang An.
Seeing this scene, he let go of his hand without hesitation.
It's just that it's too late.
Twenty or thirty qi swords behind him quietly floated in the air, locking on to him with endless killing intent.
The enemy felt the murderous intent and sharp sword intent surging behind him, and couldn't help but glance back.
Dozens of long swords continued to magnify in the enemy's line of sight, and in an instant, they were in front of him.
The enemy's pupils shrank slightly, and the qi quickly condensed into a solid set of armor on his body, and his hands waved again and again, either fists or palms, or claws or fingers, and almost completely blocked the qi sword.
Occasionally, an air sword passed through his defenses and landed on his body, only to make a crisp sound before being bounced away from the distance.
It's just that he ignored Zhang An, who seemed to be running out of oil.
Before the enemy who had successfully defended off the air sword could breathe a sigh of relief, he felt himself being held from behind.
He just wanted to shake Zhang An away, but he only felt a sharp pain in his neck, and his own qi was broken!
This is not surprising, although he has Gang Qi all over his body to increase his defense, the defense on his neck is naturally not as heavy as the armor on his body, and just in case, Zhang Anke blessed Gang Qi on his teeth.
Zhang An bit the enemy's neck tightly, and the hot blood kept flowing out, which was swallowed by Zhang An unconsciously.
With the blood flowing out, there is also an incomparably pure vitality.
The enemy obviously also felt a large loss of his vitality, he shouted wildly, frantically mobilized his energy, and constantly attacked Zhang An, who was hugging him, but Zhang An refused to let go.
Gradually, the enemy's face became paler and the attack became weaker and weaker.
In the end, the enemy fell to the ground and looked at the sky in confusion, the brilliance in his eyes dimming little by little.
The battlefield fell silent, and only Zhang An's swallowing voice kept sounding.
