Chapter 148: Dull Rhythm
The sword qi had already appeared in front of Li Jue, and his axe also grasped the exact timing and hit the sword qi.
Only a thunderous "crackling" sound was heard, and the sword qi was directly cut into two parts.
The two parts of the crack continued to fly in both directions, landing on the ring, and the bricks on the ground shattered.
Even if it was just the most ordinary sword qi, under Zhang Chen's huge aura, it still created considerable damage.
Li Jue's face froze for a moment.
It's such a terrifying destructive power of sword qi, if he hadn't grasped the right time just now, I'm afraid it would not be the sword qi that would have been cut open, but his body.
"My sword qi was split by the axe, and the axe in his hand looks ordinary, is it some kind of artifact that can't be used, or is his ability to split the target 100%?"
Zhang Chen's face was still calm, but there were some more doubts in his heart.
Just now, it was just a temptation, and he tried out some extraordinary things about the other party, but Zhang Chen wasn't sure if the other party's ability came from his own ability or from the axe?
Or both?
As the Longquan Sword waved, two sword qi appeared in front of Zhang Chen again, flying towards Li Jue at different angles and speeds.
Li Jue's face was a little more solemn, and he raised his hand and smashed a sword qi in front of him with the axe in his hand.
At this time, a sword qi followed closely, and Zhang Chen's time was very accurate, so that he almost didn't have a chance to slash the second sword qi.
Li Jue's face had a deeper solemnity, he took a few steps back quickly, his speed was not slow, after opening up the distance, he left enough space, opened up the second axe, and tore Zhang Chen's second sword qi apart.
Zhang Chen squinted his eyes and looked at the axe in Li Jue's hand, but found that there was still no trace on it.
"What's the matter with this axe, it looks like it's just made of ordinary iron, and it's so hard?"
Zhang Chen's figure moved quickly on the ground, already approaching the target, and a sword light floated out of the Longquan Sword in his hand, slashing at the axe in Li Jue's hand from top to bottom.
This time, it was Zhang Chen who took the initiative to meet him, so it was not the axe that took the initiative to chop.
However, some unexpected situations occurred, Li Jue did not use the axe in his hand to resist Zhang Chen's attack, but retreated a few steps back, leaving enough space, and then swung the axe in his hand and slashed at Zhang Chen.
Zhang Chen hurriedly turned sideways to avoid the axe, only to feel that the wind was whistling in front of him, if the axe just now could not be avoided, Zhang Chen would definitely die.
After all, this axe could break through his sword qi, and the sharpness could be imagined.
"Under normal circumstances, the instinctive reaction would be to raise the axe to resist, but just now he directly chose to take a few steps back to leave enough space for himself, and then fight back against me. It seems that his fighting style is already obvious. ”
From the previous few sword qi temptations, to Zhang Chen's personal hand-to-hand attack just now, Zhang Chen had already figured out the opponent's combat path, and the opponent didn't seem to like to defend, preferring to avoid the attack before counterattacking.
This way of fighting feels very leisurely, with the suspicion of underestimating the enemy, and the other party is dressed as an ancient chaifu, which has a sense of déjà vu of a worldly master.
Could it be that the other party is really a master of the world?
An axe came down head-on, and Zhang Chen raised the Longquan sword in his hand to resist.
Syllable!
The Longquan sword was broken in half in response!
Because Zhang Chen was unexpected, a shallow cut was made in his chest, and a small amount of blood flowed out.
Although it was only a flesh wound, this was simply unbelievable to Zhang Chen.
The Longquan Sword was actually split by a broken axe?
Perhaps in terms of thickness, the other party's axe is thicker, but the Longquan sword is made of stainless steel, and has undergone quenching and other processes, and the hardness has reached the point of sharpening iron like clay.
was easily cut off by a broken axe, which made Zhang Chen incomprehensible.
The axe in the other party's hand, although it seems to be very broken, it is difficult to say that it is not a legendary artifact or something.
Zhang Chen was already roughly sure in his heart that the axe should be an artifact, maybe it was Pangu's Open Heaven Axe, or Agarwood's axe?
In short, the level must not be low.
Zhang Chen pulled away enough distance and looked at the Longquan Sword that had been broken in his hand, and now the length of the entire sword was less than a meter.
"The fracture is smooth and there is no unevenness, and it is the first time I have seen such a perfect incision."
Zhang Chen touched his chest with his left hand, but found that the scratches on his chest were not straight.
Is it because the opponent's axe was unstable when cutting the Longquan sword, so the marks left on his chest were distorted?
Zhang Chen had one more question, if the axe cut the Longquan Sword smoothly, then the marks left on his chest should be equally straight.
But apparently what he observed, contradicting itself.
This shows that the hand of the axe-wielding man trembled after cutting off the Longquan sword.
However, according to inertia, unless the opponent's hand trembles, the trajectory of the axe should continue to fall straight down.
Condense the aura at the break of the Longquan Sword and condense a new sword blade.
This is the sword edge of the aura condensation, and it is also extremely sharp.
There was even a sword condensed on it, and the destructive power and sharpness were increased by several levels again.
A sword swing down.
Trying to test the conjecture in my heart, if I can cut the opponent's axe once, maybe I can be sure, then the axe is really an artifact?
What made Zhang Chen wonder again was that Li Jue seemed to cherish the axe in his hand very much, and when Zhang Chen's sword gang was close to the axe, Li Jue subconsciously moved the axe, letting Zhang Chen's sword gang fall short.
Take a few steps back, then swing your axe forward and fight back!
The exact same dodge moves, coupled with the rigid counterattack method, there is no skill at all. But the terrifying cutting power of the axe made Zhang Chen dare not use his sword to resist, and he also chose to retreat to dodge.
"He's scared of me attacking his axe? Is it because the axe will be broken by me? ”
Zhang Chen came up with different guesses.
Before, he thought that the other party's axe was an artifact and had a very strong destructive power, but now, he always felt that the reason why the other party deliberately avoided his attack on the axe was because he was worried that the axe would be shattered.
The axe that can clearly cut off the Longquan Sword is bound to be fragile and not look at it, there should be no fragile and hard axe in this world.
Well, there can only be one explanation, the opponent's axe is very fragile, but the opponent's ability can make the axe extremely hard in a short period of time!
Perhaps, it will only last less than a second.
Therefore, it is important to grasp the rhythm of the attack, and it must hit the target just at the moment when the axe becomes hard.
And if the attack lands on the axe, it is likely to shatter the axe on the spot, so he is afraid that the axe will be hit.
Zhang Chen came up with a rough guess, and combined with the fighting method of the opponent retreating and dodging and then counterattacking, Zhang Chen could also see the rhythm of a board and a glance.
This kind of combat rhythm is different from Zhang Chen's changeable fighting style, but more mechanical dodging and counterattacking, although it looks full of flaws, but as long as it is used in place, you can seize the opportunity, and every attack is used on the blade!
