Chapter 9: Chaotic Swordsmanship
Although looking at Tianming's firm eyes, Zhao Xingji and the others had already believed most of them, but they were still a little uneasy after all. In the end, several people decided to tell Tianming some of Li Tianba's usual methods and tricks, so that they could know themselves and their opponents and improve their chances of winning.
Tianming could only reluctantly agree, and his practice plan was ruined. Li Tianba, as a famous master among their peers, also often learns from others, so several people still know a little about him.
After several people's continuous telling, Tianming also had a certain understanding of the opponent he was about to face, and at the same time, he also had to sigh that the strength of the other party was far from being comparable to Shen Feng.
The morning was spent in the narration of several people. Look at the time, it's almost the appointed time. Tianming and the others walked directly in the direction of the competition platform.
The competition platform, as the name suggests, is a place used by Shu disciples to compete and duel. If you usually learn from each other, you don't need to come here, but if there is really any grudge that cannot be resolved, you can only go to the competition platform and have a life-and-death duel with the consent of the sect elders.
Usually there are very few people who go to the tournament platform. Except for the annual martial arts competition in Shushan, few people go at all. Today, the competition is very lively. The news of the duel between the two of Tianming had already spread throughout Shushan, and at this time, there were several Shushan disciples of all generations in front of the martial arts stage. Some came simply to watch the competition, and some came to watch the battle because they were worried about the dawn, but anyway, the competition platform at this time was already surrounded by Shushan disciples.
Tianming and several people hurried to the competition platform, although they knew that there would be people watching the battle, but when Tianming arrived, they were still deeply shocked by the scene in front of them. The onlookers saw that the protagonist had arrived, and hurriedly made way automatically, and Tianming slowly boarded the competition platform under everyone's attention.
At this time, Li Tianba, the other protagonist of this showdown, has been waiting for a long time. Seeing that Tianming really came as promised, Li Tianba couldn't help grinning, it seemed that this person still had a bit of backbone.
Tianming and the two stood face to face, and both sides erupted with a strong fighting spirit. The two did not have any communication, but looked directly at an old man in the audience at the same time, and bent down to salute. This old man's name is Zhou Yi, he has been guarding the competition platform for nearly a hundred years, with a gray beard, cloudy eyes, and no strong demeanor, and he is lazily lying on a recliner at this time.
Legend has it that he was also a well-known master in the cultivation realm back then, and countless demons died in his hands. But then besieged, although he eventually fled, he was also seriously injured, and after returning to Shushan, he has been guarding the martial arts platform, and he is usually clean.
The old man didn't look at Tianming and the two.
"Young people are impulsive, what has to be done to the point of a duel. ”
Although the old man said this, he did not stop the two, but just waved his hand casually.
Tianming and the two saluted again, and then stood in the center of the competition platform again.
"Tianming, in fact, I don't want to be your enemy, but there are some things that I have to do. Although I know that there will be no result, I am willing to work hard for it, and even if I die in the end, at least I will not leave regrets. ”
Tianming couldn't help but feel moved in his heart after hearing this. Yes, aren't you also working towards an almost impossible goal?
"It's useless to talk too much, let's make a move. ”
Listening to Tianming's voice without any emotion, Li Tianba no longer hesitated, and directly took the lead. He had heard that Tianming's swordsmanship was superb before, and once he was taken the lead, he would quickly fall into passivity. In this case, it is better to strike first. But he was still very confident in his strength, although he struck first, he didn't use all his strength, let alone directly use his sword skills, and he also wanted to know how far Tianming's swordsmanship had reached.
Tianming saw Li Tianba rushing directly towards him, obviously not wanting to let himself take the lead, but he didn't panic at all. Carrying the true element in the body, the faint white light gathered in the hand holding the sword. The distance between the two was quickly shortened, and Li Tianba directly slashed over with a sword.
Tianming didn't dodge, and he also met it with a sword. And Li Tianba's offensive was disintegrated under Tianming's gently trembling long sword. Tianming's sword not only unloaded all the opponent's strength, but at the same time, Tianming took advantage of the situation and directly led Li Tianba's sword to his side, of course Tianming would not give up such an opportunity. The long sword in his hand quickly flipped and slashed directly at Li Tianba.
At this time, if you change to Shen Feng, I am afraid that you will be defeated directly, Tianming's timing is very accurate, and it is the embarrassing moment when Li Tianba's old force has just gone to the new force. Li Tianba, on the other hand, showed his rich combat experience. The whole person fell forward directly, and at the same time, the long sword in his hand quickly flipped and stuck to his arm, and at the same time blocked Tianming's attack with this arm. In this way, the long sword that Tianming slashed at him did not achieve the expected result.
Tianming was stunned at first, he didn't expect Li Tianba's reaction to be so fast, he deserved to be a well-known powerhouse. But in this way, Tianming also seized the opportunity. The long sword in his hand danced rapidly, constantly attacking Li Tianba.
At this time, the onlookers couldn't help but be surprised to find that Tianming's seemingly indiscriminate dancing long sword was actually the most forced, and Li Tianba could only keep defending, and it was still dangerous. Is this really a monk who is only cultivating during the foundation building period? Almost all of them had such thoughts in their minds.
The battle continued, and at this time, Tianming performed the sword dance. And Li Tianba couldn't say anything at this time, he also felt that Tianming seemed to be dancing the sword indiscriminately. But the seemingly chaotic swordsmanship could always attack him at the most critical moment, so that he had to fight with all his strength to defend. And it was very difficult for him to crack it, because Tianming's swordsmanship was nowhere to be found.
Constant defense will still reveal flaws after all, and Li Tianba has already been hit by three swords at this time, although it will not be fatal, but it does have an impact. Li Tianba, who had been on the defensive, finally couldn't bear it anymore, and used all his strength to transport the true yuan in his body and slapped it on the ground with one palm.
With a loud bang, the distance between the two was finally pulled apart. Li Tianba didn't want to shoot Tianming directly, but every time he wanted to make a move, Tianming's long sword would catch up at the right time, forcing him to distance themselves in this way.
The distance was pulled away, but Tianming did not continue to attack. Although the Sword Flurry Dance consumes very little of the true element, it is a sword skill after all, and the long-term display is also a great load for Tianming. Take the opportunity to take a break.
Li Tianba couldn't help but be angry when he looked at his bleeding wound, and at the same time had to sigh that Tianming's swordsmanship was really powerful, and it seemed that he had to go all out. Such an opponent is really exciting.
