Chapter Eighty-Seven: Swords Against Each Other
Zhiming breathed a sigh of relief, although he suffered some skin trauma, it was fine. He thought that if it weren't for Excalibur protecting him, he would definitely be killed. He deliberately ridiculed the other party: "Are you playing tricks?"
"You... Dare to tease me?! Okay, come on, let's fight to the death!" Wu Tianhu looked unconvinced, and rushed towards him with a murderous sword.
The swords were facing each other, and the two divine swords produced a powerful sword aura in the process of continuous touching, forming a thick enchantment, wrapping the two of them in the core and prohibiting outsiders from entering.
Zhiming was full of fighting spirit at the moment, he used the sword picking technique taught by Guan Yu, and in less than a while, he picked the opponent's sword away.
Wu Tianhu was stunned for a moment, and used his palm qi, which was easily dissolved by Zhiming's divine sword.
Wu Tianhu used his illusion technique, and suddenly several Wu Tianhu appeared in front of Zhiming's eyes. Zhiming stabbed the front one and pierced it. The apparitions are gone, and there are many more.
The Martial Heavenly Tigers laughed and said, "Hmph, Lei Zhiming, your end has come, taste my 'Hundred Dragons Evil Fire'!"
Before the words fell, several phantoms also appeared behind Zhiming, and at the same time released purple-black fireballs at him. The fireball released by the phantom turned out to be real, and before he could use the shield, he was hit by the fireball, and his whole body immediately burned. The sword qi released by the Excalibur was like a mist emitted from a modern fire extinguisher, constantly helping him extinguish the fire, but the fire developed faster, and the speed of the sword qi to extinguish the fire could not catch up.
"Suffer death, my Hundred Dragons Evil Fire can burn you to ashes in an instant!" Wu Tianhu decided that the victory and defeat had been decided.
Zhiming was entangled by the fire snake at the moment and bit tightly. The burning intensity of the evil fire was several times greater than that of ordinary fire, and he endured the pain of burning his body by the fire, and suddenly increased his body qi by several levels.
Wu Tianhu originally thought that this move could kill the other party, but he didn't expect that Zhiming would use the air flow to detoxify in Xinye, and extinguish all the evil fires by releasing internal qi.
Wu Tianhu was startled and ordered the phantoms to attack. Suddenly, the phantoms swarmed up.
"Carving insect skills!" Zhi Ming used his sword dance to the sky, and all the phantoms disappeared.
Seeing that this move had failed again, Wu Tianhu hurriedly used his movement technique, and the Sky Killing Sword automatically flew back into his hand.
Zhiming's body was still in hot pain. He felt that the strength of the Eight Great Tiger Kings was stronger than the other, and if he met the Martial Heavenly Tiger before he obtained the Divine Sword, it was estimated that he would die for a lifetime. He had heard a story about "martial arts" from his master before, which was that during the Warring States Period, a warrior named Du Feng was looking for someone to compete with: the first time he found a person who was good at kicking, and it happened that Du Feng's leg skills were also very strong, so it was easier to win. After winning the first opponent, Du Feng realized that his boxing skills were not strong enough, so he specially strengthened his boxing training and then went to find the next opponent. The second opponent happened to be a boxer, and Du Feng barely defeated the opponent because his boxing skills had improved. Later, he realized that he was not skilled enough in the use of weapons, and went to special training in marksmanship. The third opponent happened to be a spearman, and Du Feng defeated him with his newly practiced spearmanship. went on like this, and until the end, Du Feng never lost a game. It can be said that it is the martial arts and his own efforts that have made Du Feng undefeated. If Du Feng blindly relied on his leg skills and did not learn other martial arts, I believe that he would soon be defeated. At that time, Zhiming didn't quite understand the connotation of this story, but now that he thinks back, it was indeed Wu Yun and his own efforts that saved his life. He started from facing the first opponent, and fought until the opponent in front of him, and he was constantly learning and accumulating in the process, if he lacked these necessary accumulation and improvement, he would not be able to defeat one enemy after another, just like Du Feng, if the first opponent was a person who was good at using weapons, and he had no experience in this area at all, he would definitely be defeated.
Wu Tianhu continued to use the "Sword Qi Slash", and three blue lights struck quickly. Zhiming blocked left and right, and knocked all the green light away. At this moment, relying on his own martial arts, he is no longer afraid of the opponent in front of him.
Wu Tianhu took a leap and slashed from top to bottom. Zhiming blocked it with a protective shield. Wu Tianhu slashed wildly, but the power of the protective shield was too strong to break through.
Zhiming turned the protective shield into a shockwave, sending the Wutian Tiger flying out, knocking over a large wooden frame and smashing into his body. Wu Tianhu screamed, and Yun Neigong shook the wooden frame open and got up again.
Zhiming rushed forward and danced with his sword. Wu Tianhu couldn't parry, and he was hit again and again. Zhiming took advantage of the victory to pursue without mercy.
In desperation, Wu Tianhu used the Escape Technique and burrowed into the dirt at once.
Zhiming thought, "What does this guy want to do?"
Suddenly, he felt the dirt under his feet loosen, and a dark figure broke through the ground. He dodged it with a backflip.
Wu Tianhu wanted to sneak attack from underground, but Zhiming had cracked this trick when he was in Wuhu Mountain. He slashed horizontally with his sword, and Wu Tianhu blocked vertically.
As soon as Zhiming's hand holding the sword was released, the divine sword suddenly swung over with the Heaven Killing Sword as a support pillar, and the blade slashed into the enemy's body.
Wu Tianhu was struck, blood splattered, and he retreated, and the sword returned to Zhiming's hand.
"Excalibur shines!" Zhi Ming waved a sword aura.
Wu Tianhu blocked it with the Heaven Killing Sword, but the powerful sword qi forced him to retreat continuously, and two deep foot marks were sharpened on the ground.
Not to be outdone, Wu Tianhu used the "Whirling Sword Light", and several blue lights flew over like boomerangs.
Zhiming used his sword to block all the blue lights, but they flew back immediately. Zhiming created a protective shield again, and the swirling sword light was completely dissolved after touching the cover.
Wu Tianhu had nothing to do at the moment, and his Heaven Killing Sword could only be used to this extent.
The Demon Slaying Divine Sword released several sword qi, and Wu Tianhu couldn't resist it, and was shocked and flew out, breaking a tree and then breaking a stone wall.
Covered in mud, Wu Tianhu stood up in pain and used the Phantom Attack Technique again. Several phantoms lunge at the enemy at the same time.
"The old trick repeated!" Zhiming once again used his sword dance, and the phantoms disappeared one by one.
Wu Tianhu didn't expect the enemy, so he turned around and wanted to flee. Zhiming drew a circle in the air with his divine sword, turning into a halo and spinning like a hot wheel, flying towards the enemy.
Wu Tianhu emitted several rays of blue light, all of which were bounced away by the halo and flew out in all directions, cutting off many surrounding barracks and facilities, and one of the Vietnamese soldiers who was hiding in the distance to watch the battle was almost cut off his head.
A blue light bounced back, and Wu Tianhu jumped quickly, and the blue light cut a huge crack under his feet, and the dirt splashed up like a fountain.
Wu Tianhu fled quickly. The aura chased after him, the speed was much faster than him, and after a while, he caught up, straight up from his feet, just enough to hold him tightly in mid-air.
The aura was divided into several paths, and Wu Tianhu was tightly covered from head to toe. He couldn't move, he was at a loss, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Ash..."Wu Tianhu wanted to call for help, but he couldn't.
"Farewell, Wu Tianhu!" Zhi Ming's divine sword emitted a strong light, sending the halo-clad Wu Tianhu flying, and disappeared into the sky in an instant, and the Sky Killing Sword also disappeared.
"Solved one more. Zhiming was relieved, "I didn't expect that the power of the Demon Slaying Sword was so great, if the God of War had lent it to me earlier, Xu Shu wouldn't have died in vain." ”
He remembered Yang Ji and hurriedly ran over to take a look, but fortunately no one had found him yet. He held up his upper body slightly with his right arm and said, "Brother Yang, are you okay, I have already destroyed the enemy." ”
Yang Ji was still in a deep coma, and Zhiming tried to infuse qi to him to help him recover, but the effect was not obvious, after all, the injury was too serious. Zhiming thought that if he carried him back to the Tiangu Sect like this, he would definitely die halfway, and now the only one who could save him was Yue Ren.
He carried Yang Ji out. The Yue people who were hiding in the shadows saw that he was no longer murderous, so they surrounded him one after another.
Zhiming gently leaned Yang Ji against the earthen wall and said to everyone, "Don't get me wrong, we are not here to hurt you, but to find Xiao Qiao and the crystal ball. Now that the people and the ball have left this place, my companion wanted to leave, but he didn't expect to meet Wu Tianhu and couldn't get out. In desperation, I have come to my rescue, and I have hurt your people, but please believe that we are not your enemies!"
The Yue people didn't dare to come forward to talk, the battle scene just now was obvious to all, Zhiming's martial arts were very accessible, and the power of that sword was unprecedented.
Zhiming pointed at Yang Ji and said, "He is seriously injured, and it is too late to go back for treatment, so please save him, otherwise he will die!"
One of them stood up boldly and cautiously asked, "Where did you come from?"
"He is from Chaisang County, and I came from Jingzhou. "Zhiming doesn't want to reveal his identity for the time being.
As he spoke, a burly man walked in from outside the crowd. Zhiming intuitively believed that he was the leader, so he asked, "Your Excellency is the owner of the village?"
The man replied: "That's right, I am the owner of the village and the king of the Yue clan, and the clansmen call me the sect commander." What are you here for?"
"King, please save my friend first, let's talk slowly afterwards, okay?" Zhiming was anxious at the moment, and Yang Ji's sand of life was slowly draining.
King Yue had a hard time making a choice, after all, he couldn't determine whether the other party was friend or foe.
Zhi Ming had no choice but to raise the divine sword, and the light once again shrouded his body. Everyone involuntarily took a few steps back, and King Yue was also shocked, he didn't expect that in addition to the White Tigers, there would be such a person.
Zhiming swung a sword in front of him, and suddenly a sword aura shook several people to the ground. He slashed at the ground again, and the mountains shook in an instant, and the cracks in the earth extended nearly a hundred meters ahead.
Everyone was dumbfounded. Zhiming was puzzled: "Why can the divine sword still exert its divine power?
He didn't have time to think about it, so he put his sword back into its sheath and said to King Yue: "You have also seen that the power of my divine sword is enough to destroy the entire cottage. So, please help me, my friend can't wait any longer!"
Although it was night, by the light of the fire, King Yue could still see a trace of friendliness in his eyes, although the other party had injured his own soldier just now, it seemed that he was really forced to do so, and the power of this sword was in front of him, was there any other choice? He nodded.
"Thank you, King!" Zhiming knelt down on one knee and thanked him with a fist.
King Yue hurriedly helped him up, and then ordered someone to carry Yang Ji to the medical room. The two carried Yang Ji away on a stretcher, and the rest of the people were busy cleaning up the mess.
Suddenly, a white light flashed in the sky, and a giant bird plunged into the sky and sped away.
Zhiming was stunned: "It's a giant falcon again?"
King Yue was stunned for a moment and said, "Yes, it seems that you have seen it before." Carrying on it was the gray-faced tiger of the White Tiger team, who had been nearby just now, probably afraid of the power of your sword, and had not dared to show his face, so he looked for an opportunity to flee from this place. ”
"How many people are there in the White Tigers, and why did they send people here?" asked Zhiming.
"There are only the Martial Heavenly Tiger and the Grey-faced Tiger, who came from the Central Plains by giant falcon. They want to use the strength of our clan to contain the Wu army, so that Cao Cao can successfully take Jiangnan. Moreover, they claim to be gods and humans from the divine realm, and I doubt that. "King Yue felt that there was no need to hide it now.
There is no doubt that the claim of God and man does exist. ... What did the king mean just now that they came to you on their own initiative, not that Cao Cao sent them?"
"I feel yes, and from their words, I can feel that the White Tigers and Cao Cao are not all the way, and the White Tigers must be planning some bigger conspiracy. But as long as they don't do anything bad for our people, I don't care. King Yue put his heart in his heart at the moment and regarded Zhiming as his own.
"That's the case!" Zhi Ming looked at the sky and thought, "Now the Eight Tiger Kings still have the Phantom Flying Tiger and the Gray-Faced Tiger, as long as they are resolved, the White Tiger Team will truly collapse." After that, if Cao's army loses this battle, our army can take advantage of the situation to recapture Jingzhou and then consider advancing into the Xichuan area. ”
King Yue's mood at the moment was very complicated, due to the appearance of Yang Ji and Zhiming, two uninvited guests, the cooperative relationship between the Yue clan and the White Tiger was automatically terminated. Originally, the White Tigers promised to help the Yue people eliminate the Nine Youjiao Sect, and the Yue people also promised to help the White Tigers contain the power of the Wu army. However, tonight something happened, Wu Tianhu was killed, the gray-faced tiger had fled, and his revenge for killing his wife could only be avenged by himself.
Looking at the complicated expression of the King of Yue, Zhiming suddenly had an idea, although the life and death of the Yue people has nothing to do with his mission, but in order to calm this troubled world, in order to help the Sun-Liu coalition army resist Cao smoothly, and for the continuation of the Yue bloodline, he must find ways to make Wu and the Yue people turn war into jade silk.
