Chapter 4: Finding Light in the Darkness

The sword light of the "...... swish" pierced the air, emitting a deafening scream.

The craggy rocks on the surface of the mountain, the tall spruce and the needle pine, are all dangers that cannot be underestimated. And the gloomy and gloomy night adds to the difficulty of Edgeworth. In such a complex environment, Edgeworth's galloping is not only a test of Edgeworth's skills, but also a test of people's courage.

The rapid turning and changing direction at a speed of nearly 200 kilometers per hour put the sword light shield under tremendous pressure. Clusters of sword light swayed and overflowed in the night, leaving colorful traces of light behind him. Behind the shining light marks were a field of dust and smoke and broken branches and leaves.

As soon as they stepped together, the blood-red sword light took the lead. Three minutes later, only Gao Ge, Zhang He, Zhang Yu, and Xiao Ke could barely keep up with the blood-colored sword light. The one who controlled the blood-colored sword light was the man named Wang Zhi.

Wang Zhi has dark skin, rough facial features, a strong and tall figure, taciturn, calm and powerful demeanor, and a simple and old-fashioned dress. In Zhang He's group, he seems to be very different. Gao Ge felt that a person like him would not make friends with someone like Zhang He, and the biggest possibility was Zhang He's bodyguard.

Although Wang Zhi tried his best to hide his cultivation, his sword technique was sophisticated and skillful, and he was at ease in the rapid advance, and the amplitude of the shock of the sword light all showed Wang Zhi's high cultivation.

"Level 5 of Qi training. Through two sword competitions, Gao Ge almost figured out the details of Wang Zhi. If you want to kill Zhang He, Wang Zhi is undoubtedly the biggest obstacle. A cultivator of the same level, although Gao Ge has experienced a lot of brutal battles in the illusion world, he does not have any experience in fighting in reality. Fighting with a veteran like Wang Zhi is unlikely to take advantage.

Gao Ge, who couldn't make any mistakes, thought hard for a long time, and didn't think of any foolproof solution, and finally decided not to fight Wang Zhi head-on. After making this decision, Gao Ge found that he had gone further and further down the dark path.

Starting from a painstaking desire to uphold justice and fairness, Gao Ge found that with his own strength, he could only succeed if he was more insidious and despicable than his enemies.

A philosopher of the empire once said, "To seek light by dark means can only fall into deeper darkness." "Gao Ge has always believed in the truth.

But in the face of the cruel reality, Gao Ge found that he only had two choices, one was to go to Zhang He openly, and his good friend Liu Yang had already made a demonstration. The other is to use various means of calculation to accomplish the goal, uphold justice and protect oneself at the same time.

After a painful choice, Gao Ge found that he was very talented in intrigue and intrigues, and he didn't need to be taught, and the methods he thought of became more and more insidious and secretive. In the process of calculating Zhang He, Gao Ge's heart also changed from nervous and uneasy at the beginning, and gradually turned into excitement, and in the end, Gao Ge was able to plan everything calmly and without waves.

Harness the high song of the Bibi sword, put away the distractions in your heart, and concentrate on the game in front of you first. Walking through the gaps in the mountains and forests at such a high speed, if you are not careful, you may end up with a sword destroying people.

In the deep night, even if there is a sword light, with the cultivation of Zhang He and others, they can't see thirty meters away. Gao Ge's flying sword is even worse, and there is no magic circle for special lighting. Fortunately, Gao Ge has reached the peak of the fifth level of Qi training, even without sword light, under the starry sky, he can see everything within a hundred meters.

Every time the level of Qi cultivation is raised, whether it is true qi or body coordination, and reaction speed will be significantly improved. Although Gao Ge's flying sword is far inferior to Zhang He and others, it can travel through the mountains and forests, and the surname of the flying sword itself is not determined.

In this kind of competition, Gao Ge relied on the overwhelming surname advantage in the level of Qi training, and it was not difficult to win. The same principle applies to Wang Zhi. However, in order to deceive each other, both of them now have to endure hard and pretend to do their best.

Compared with Gao Ge, who worked hard, Wang Zhi did not see Gao Ge's disguise. I just think that Gao Ge does have some talent for Edgeworth, and although the various skills of Edgeworth are jerky, they are extremely imaginative. It's just that he doesn't understand the right path, and he wants to compete with Zhang He and others.

Entangled with Zhang He, no matter whether he wins or loses, there will be no good results. Wang Zhi, who has been worn away by life, although he has some pity for Gao Ge's talent, he will never be nosy, and kindly remind Gao Ge. Years of experience have taught Wang Zhi that kindness may not be rewarded. A rebellious young man like Gao Ge doesn't care about other people's reminders.

As Fan Jin's subordinate, Wang Zhi didn't want to offend Zhang He, a bad guy who wanted to shed pus. Because of the credit for killing that student last time, Wang Zhi has already gained Zhang He's trust. Fan Jin even promised to transfer him to a sub-district to be the deputy head of the district law enforcement team in another six months.

The sword competition of Zhang He and others, in Wang Zhi's view, is just a child's trick. But his current role has to be fun with Zhang He.

With the first-order high-grade Blood River Sword provided by Zhang He, Wang Zhi could easily occupy the advantage. Maintaining the state that everyone is not leaving, Wang Zhi mainly pays attention to Zhang He behind him.

The Guanyun Peak Mountain Range stretched for thousands of miles, although the garrison of Tianlin City would come every once in a while to clear the high-level demon beasts in the mountain range. But it's hard to keep any fish out of the net. It is a second-order demon beast, and it is also a disaster for Zhang He and the others.

And in the process of rushing to the sword, Zhang He is more likely to encounter an accident. As a bodyguard, Wang Zhi's most important duty is to protect Zhang He. Otherwise, everything is not tied.

Wang Zhi cautiously led the flight in front, Gao Ge and Zhang He and others chased after him, and the sword lights sometimes collided together, and the surging sword qi shield burst out a little divine light in the dark night, which was as gorgeous as fireworks.

In fact, as the mountain became steeper and steeper, the speed of the sword light became slower and slower for the few people who went against the trend. Especially after entering the most famous eighteen-bend cave of Guanyun Peak, several people became more and more cautious.

The eighteen bends of the cave are tortuous and narrow, the cave wall is uneven, and there are many blue-gray stone pillars standing in the cave, some are as sharp as knives, and some are sharp as spears.

This zigzag cave, which is more than ten miles long, was originally unknown, and a group of Cangyan monkeys have been entrenched in it. Since the empire blew the tide of economic prosperity, Tianlin City has invited many historians to come to verify, saying that this is the place where the Changchun Zizhen of the Megatron Empire once cultivated three thousand years ago.

All of a sudden, there was a flood of viewers. After a few years of bustling activity, this crooked cave with nothing has fallen silent again.

When Edgeworth went up the mountain, he didn't have to go through the cramped and narrow eighteen-bend cave. However, in order to increase the difficulty, they had already agreed that all the people must go up the mountain from the Eighteen Bend Cave.

In this closed and gloomy environment, it is a test of the flying sword's control skills.

On each flying sword, there will be the most basic floating magic circle. On the floating array, there are various control points that control the flight of the flying sword up, down, forward, backward, left, and right. If you have a low level of Qi training, you can control the magic circle on the hilt of the sword with your fingers.

And after reaching the third level of Qi training, you can use your own true qi to communicate with the magic circle of the flying sword, and use your true qi to control these magic circles. Under the control of true qi, it can be more nuanced to control the flying sword array.

It's easy to say, but in fact, controlling a flying sword is not a very simple task. And like Zhang He, they are rushing through the mountains and forests, and they must have a good control over the flying sword.

Although Zhang He, Zhang Yu, and Xiao Ke do not learn or know, they have also received strict training since childhood. In terms of personal cultivation, the three of them can be said to far surpass most of their peers.

Due to their extraordinary family background, they have more access to flying swords of various qualities. In terms of Edgeworth's various skills, they are actually better than Gao Ge. However, the gap in the level of Qi training is not something that can be made up by mere sword skills.

As soon as they entered the cave, everyone's sword light slowed down. Although Zhang He and others like to seek excitement, they are not really crazy people after all. Eighteen bends in caves, complex and dangerous terrain, low visibility, flying swords with a speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour, are all real death-seeking behaviors here.

Gao Ge, Zhang He, and Zhang Yu were almost next to each other, and Gao Ge slowed down his sword speed when he entered the hole, so that Zhang Yu, who was following him, saw the opportunity.

Zhang Yu's thick earth gold armor sword, combined with the flying sword of earth and gold, takes into account the richness of the earth and the hardness of the gold, which is the strongest of the flying swords, and the protection of the swordsman is also the most comprehensive. Zhang Yu's style of imperial sword is extremely savage, and his favorite thing is to ride this sword on a rampage. For Gao Ge, Zhang Yu will naturally not be polite. The disqualification of the so-called collider before was even more indifferent to him.

Zhang Yu ran the Little Heavenly Star Technique in his body with all his might, and the huge input of True Qi suddenly doubled the speed of the Thick Earth Golden Armor Sword, and the bright yellow sword light drew a dazzling rainbow of light in the night, and it went straight towards Gao Ge's turquoise sword light.

Flying swords, for celestials, can only be regarded as a means of transportation. I really want to kill people without a trace, that is something that only a Yuanying-level powerhouse can do.

Zhang Yu's blow seems to be ferocious, but in essence, it is just a fun and savage collision with the quality of a flying sword.

Gao Ge and Zhang Yu had compared the sword twice, knowing that this person's sword style was barbaric and rude, and when the sword slowed down, he was afraid of Zhang Yu's attack. Seeing that Zhang Yu really rushed over, Gao Ge deliberately pretended not to be able to avoid it, and collided with Zhang Yu's bright yellow sword light.

"Roaring ......" Seeing Zhang Yu so fierce and brave, Zhang He and Xiao Ke behind him let out an excited howl at the same time.

"......Boom" The collision of the two sword lights made a dull but loud sound. The bright yellow sword light and turquoise sword light that suddenly erupted turned into streamers in the deep night, shining as if it were day within a radius of several hundred meters.

At the moment before the sword light impacted, Zhang Yu also looked at Gao Ge triumphantly, hoping to see expressions of horror and despair on his face. What surprised Zhang Yu was that Gao Ge in the blue sword light shield had only a strange calm on his pale face.

Zhang Yu, who realized that something was wrong, could only curse secretly in his heart: "Lao Tzu is not scared!"

The thick earth gold armor sword, the blue sea V-shaped safety air shield on the wrist, and the condensation talisman inner armor of the Heavenly Army. Zhang Yu also relied on the layers of protection on his body to dare to hit others unscrupulously. Therefore, although Zhang Yu was not afraid, the speed of the sword did not decrease but increased, and he was determined to give Gao Ge a good look.

The speed of close to three hundred per hour, without any buffer, was enough to smash Gao Ge and his sword together.
