Chapter 17 Turning the Tide
Lin Xuan smiled, secretly happy in his heart. Because he succeeded in cultivating this time, he had achieved a breakthrough and had reached the realm of sword body.
"Crackle, crackle!" Lin Xuan waved the long sword in his hand, pointing it into the air, and wherever the power of the sword went, there was a loud sound, like lightning and thunder, very spectacular and thrilling, enough to make people tremble.
Blue Ice Nine Flashes! Lin Xuan finally practiced.
This is the second of the seven blue ice styles. As soon as it is used, it is nine flashes in a row, making the opponent unguardable and difficult to resist. Even in the face of hundreds or thousands of centaurs, Lin Xuan can easily win as long as he uses the Blue Ice Nine Flash.
In other words, Lin Xuan already had the ability to save the base. Even if the Beast Control Empire sent a black-faced leader with a sword body cultivation this time, if he ran into Lin Xu, then he would only have to suffer defeat.
At this time, it happened that Leopard and Wang Lung were attacked by the black-faced leader and retreated one after another, so they had to take the rest of the soldiers to hide in the underground base.
Lin Xu heard the voices of people outside the earth house, and knew that something was wrong, it must be Leopard Print and the others who were in trouble. Otherwise, the normally quiet underground base would have been so noisy.
Thinking that it was another period of war between the Shenghua Empire and the Beast Control Empire, Lin Xuan didn't have to think about it, he already knew a rough idea. He no longer hesitated, and with the long sword in his hand, he jumped up from the stone platform and flew directly out of the earthen house.
As soon as Leopard and Wang Lung saw Lin Xu, they were as excited as if they had seen a savior, but suddenly, they didn't know how to tell Lin Xu, so they could only blurt out and call for their long-awaited heroes.
"Boss!"
"Brother Lin!"
Leopard and Wang Lung, as well as all the soldiers in the two squadrons who retreated to the underground base, greeted Lin Xu loudly.
"Leopard Print, don't worry, what happened?" Lin Xuan saw Leopard Print's painful expression, so he hurriedly comforted him and asked with concern.
"Boss, the Beast Control Empire has sent troops to attack us again. This time, we also sent a leader of the sword body cultivation, there were originally seven squadrons, and yesterday we set a trap to eliminate two squadrons, and today their five squadrons came together, and we couldn't resist it. Leopard Print told Lin Xu sadly. Fortunately, he has strong endurance, otherwise, he will definitely cry bitterly.
"Why are there only such a few people, and what about the others?" Lin Xuan looked around and found that there were only half of the original more than two hundred people left.
"Brother Lin, the enemy is too ferocious, and everyone else has already died in battle. Wang Lung replied to Lin Xuan in a low voice.
"It makes no sense. Let's go and see how I avenge you. Lin Xuan said loudly to everyone present. Of course, this includes not only leopard prints and Wang Lung, but also those soldiers.
"Big brother, the leader of the other party is a sword body monk. Wang Lung reminded Lin Xuan in a low voice.
"Don't be afraid! I'm just using him to practice my hands. Lin Xuan had no fear. This is because he has also reached the sword body realm. Not to mention a sword body cultivator of the same level, even if it was a sword qi cultivator one level higher than him, he would definitely not have the slightest sense of fear.
Lin Xuan not only cultivated the Blue Ice Heavenly Sword Duel, but also had the incidental skills of the second exercise, the Tianyuan Demon Skill. This allows him to kill as many high-level opponents as possible while protecting his own safety.
With Lin Xu's support, Leopard and Wang Lung will no longer have the slightest fear of the black-faced leader of the Beast Control Empire as they did just now. They followed Lin Xu, left the underground base together, and went out again to face the ironclad cavalry of the Beast Control Empire.
The blackface leader had already led someone into the house. When they couldn't find anyone, they took out their anger with the things in the house, and broke all the things in everyone. As for the grain, they moved it out and prepared it for their own use.
After all, the Beast Control Empire suffered a defeat yesterday and was robbed of a lot of food by Leopard and Wang Long, and now they want to grab it back.
But they were doomed to fail this time. Because Lin Xuan appeared.
"Stop!" Lin Xu couldn't help but be furious when he saw that the soldiers of the Beast Control Empire actually came into the house to snatch his food. He was the only one who robbed other people's things before, how could he have been robbed by others?
Needless to say, when I was a killer in my previous life. Even after possessing his current slightly weak body, he had never been robbed by others. On the contrary, he also snatched a lot of good things from others. Including the first-level guide he was carrying in his hand now, which he had snatched from the leader sent by the Beast Control Empire last time.
Lin Xuan was furious, shouting loudly to stop the enemy's robbery, and at the same time swung his long sword and stabbed straight at the enemies who were carrying food outside the house. I saw the blue light flashing one after another, killing dozens of enemies in an instant.
The Blue Ice Nine Flashes are really powerful, and they are extraordinary as soon as they make a move. This is the first time that Lin Xu has used it in actual combat, and he has already achieved such great success and produced such great power. When Lin Xu's moves are proficient, he will definitely be able to play a greater role, and at the same time, he will also be more powerful.
This time he could kill dozens of people with one move, so next time Lin Xu might be able to kill hundreds of people with the Blue Ice Nine Flash.
At this moment, everyone was shocked by Lin Xu's terrifying strength, and even stunned. This includes not only the people of the Beast Control Empire, but also Wang Long and Leopard Print, as well as the soldiers of the two squadrons of the Kamikaze Battalion.
They'd never seen such a powerful move before. Even the well-informed Wang Lung and Leopard Pattern have only heard of swordsmen who have cultivated to the sword spirit or sword soul to have such strength, but now Lin Xuan has not reached such a high level, and he already has such a great strength, which is really shocking.
In addition to being shocked, Leopard Print and Wang Lung were secretly happy in their hearts. Because the stronger Lin Xu's strength, the more beneficial it is for them. Now they don't have to worry about being defeated by the Beast Control Empire. As long as Lin Xuan is present, then they can remain invincible forever.
"Wow, the boss is so powerful, he can kill so many people in one shot, then he can make a few more moves, and the enemies here can be wiped out." Leopard Print couldn't hold back the ecstasy in his heart and laughed.
"Hehe, we've had a real eye-opener this time. Wang Lung was also overjoyed.
The faces of both of them were already happy, and there was no longer the worried look just now. Even if there are many people on the other side, in front of Lin Xu's fierce moves, it is not worth mentioning at all.
Leopard Print and Wang Lung knew that this time it would definitely be Lin Xu's victory. Even the seemingly tough black-faced team leader, they believed that Lin Xuan would be able to give the other party a hard blow.
As a result, among the people present, two completely different expressions involuntarily appeared on their faces. One is joy and the other is fear. Rejoicing, of course, were Wang Lung and Leopard Print, as well as the remaining soldiers of the 31st and 32nd Squadrons of the Kamikaze Battalion.
And it is the soldiers of the Beast Control Empire who are afraid. When they saw Lin Xu's attack so fierce, they were so frightened that they hurriedly put down the food in their hands, and they no longer dared to carry it outside the house. The question they need to consider now is not how much food they can grab, but whether they can survive.
They had just witnessed a horrific scene. The companion who was still in high spirits to carry the food died in an instant. And not just one or two, but dozens of them died at the same time.
No one is not afraid of death. Where did the soldiers of the Beast Control Empire dare to attack in the slightest, they all involuntarily withdrew outside the house, and directly retreated behind their black-faced leader. They may only be able to pray now that the blackface leader can deal with Lin Xu and save their lives.
Otherwise, if even the blackface leader can't defeat Lin Xu, then they will definitely not survive. The dozens of companions who fell at the same time just now are the most obvious examples of them. They may end up in the same fate.
If there are still people who seem to be calmer at this dangerous moment, they can only be regarded as the blackface leader of the Beast Control Empire. Because he is also a person with a sword body cultivation, he is not too shocked by this. He was a little surprised, he really didn't expect that there would be people with sword body cultivation in the squadron of the kamikaze battalion.
The black-faced team leader never thought that he came at a really bad time, and he caught up with Lin Xu's cultivation success in the morning and evening. Then he can only make the first test stone for Lin Xu.
The soldiers who were still alive had already been frightened by the Blue Ice Nine Flashes that Lin Xuan had used. And those who lie on the ground are dead, and even if some of them do not die immediately, they are already lying on the ground wailing, in pain, and it looks more and more terrifying.
"Sword Body Cultivator?" the black-faced leader forced his composure, his eyes stared directly at Lin Xu, as if he had never seen such a young Sword Body Monk.
"Haha! I didn't expect that, and if you run into me, you won't want to get out of this room alive. Because this is the forbidden place of the 31st and 32nd squadrons of our kamikaze battalion, if anyone trespasses, then there is only a dead end. Lin Xu laughed very proudly and said to the blackface leader.
"I really didn't expect you to be able to have a sword body cultivation. But as for who lives and who dies, then your conclusion may not be a little too early. If you are willing to beg for mercy, I think it is not easy for you to cultivate to the sword body, and I may be able to spare you a life. The black-faced leader pretended to be calm and said to Lin Xu.
In fact, the black-faced leader knew very clearly in his heart that a swordsman like Lin Xu would not easily beg for mercy at all. He deliberately said this, it was just pretending to be majestic in front of his subordinates, and at the same time, it was also emboldening himself.
Facing such a powerful opponent as Lin Xu, the blackface leader knew that he couldn't escape even if he wanted to. He has no way out at all, so he can only fight to the death, and maybe there is a glimmer of life.
"Do you want me to beg for mercy?" Lin Xuan really refused categorically without hesitation, and also ridiculed the black-faced leader. At this time, not to mention that Lin Xuan would not beg for mercy, even if the black-faced leader begged him for mercy in turn, then he would definitely not let the other party go.
