Chapter 156 156. Is he like a dragon?

【Complete Milestone: Assassinate Qin! 】

[Assassination of Qin: Assassinating the King of Qin in the Xianyang Palace without any help.]

【Note: Where is your map of Yan State? 】

"I'm not Jing Ke, why do I need a map of Yan State?"

After complaining, Mo Hao turned his head to avoid the sword coming from behind, turned around and smashed the enemy to pieces with a punch.

Completely shattered, the Iron Eagle Guard seemed to have stepped on a landmine and exploded into many pieces.

Even the most skilled puzzle maker would not be able to piece his body together.

After the death of King Wu of Qin, the Iron Eagle Guards seemed to have fallen into a state of violence. Regardless of their own injuries, they fought with a strategy of exchanging life for life, or even life for injury.

If it were any other enemy, the Iron Eagle Guards, who had gone completely berserk and were determined to fight to the death, might have been at a disadvantage.

But it just so happens that Mo Hao is best at this kind of life-for-life fighting style. Even for him, this is the most familiar fighting style.

Blood light surrounded his body, blocking the crossbow arrows shot from the darkness. Then Mo Hao rushed into the enemy camp and waved his fists.

The fist force had extremely strong penetrating power. Each punch pierced through several Iron Eagle Guards and shattered their internal organs.

Transforming Axe into Fist Force is a technique that transforms a giant axe into fist force, but this does not mean that the damage caused by a sharp blade is completely transformed into blunt force damage.

In fact, if there were no internal strength, spiritual power or other extraordinary energies to protect themselves, the damage caused by the Axe Fist to these Iron Eagle Guards would actually be like directly chopping the axe into their internal organs.

Finally, Mo Hao walked out of the palace slowly, stepping on the blood and flesh on the ground. At this time, there was no place to step on the ground, and blood and flesh were everywhere.

As he left, the flesh and blood on the ground began to dry up and turned into ashes.

It ended in a fire that no one could put out.

No one knows that the bodies here will eventually become food for someone.

Mo Hao, who set a fire that burned down the entire palace, did not go far away. He set the fire purely at random to see if he could lure out the members of the Doomsday Society.

He had been hiding in a corner for a long time, but no members of the Doomsday Society had come. He contacted Su Zhilan through the watch, but did not receive any news that they were fighting hard and needed support.

In this case, Mo Hao simply found a secluded place and thought about the feeling just now.

That feeling of using [Titan's Grip] to dual wield weapons and unleashing [Axe Fist] with all my strength just now.

The three techniques of speed, madness and fury seem to be merging into one, and there is also a vague feeling that after the three techniques are merged into one, what is born is not the Axe Fist Force, but something else.

Completely immersing his mind in research, Mo Hao's shadow extended silently in the palace beside him where flames were soaring into the sky.

If someone looked towards the building in the fire, they could vaguely see a huge figure sitting in the fire.

"This feeling is so strange."

Mo Hao withdrew his mind from the Axe Fist, but he frowned and thought deeply about some issues.

Because he discovered some problems with the double axe fist.

"Holding the axe with both hands consumes a lot of physical strength, and it can only be used in bursts, not for a long time. It seems that the damage of the dual-wielding axe fist has increased, and the consumption is also not low."

The Axe-Transforming Fist is originally the skill of the powerful Bull Demon King, and is specially practiced by the Bull Demon. Given the Bull Demon's high strength and stamina attributes visible to the naked eye, it is not surprising that the Axe-Transforming Fist has a huge demand for physical strength.

It is natural that when wielding two-handed weapons, the output will be increased, but the consumption will also increase.

Mo Hao had already anticipated the shortcomings in consumption.

What he was thinking about at this moment was another question, "Broken tendons and cracked bones, unparalleled domineering fist. Why do I vaguely see something different from the axe-transforming fist?"

Mo Hao was confused, but the doubt did not last long.

Because at this time, Su Zhilan had already sent the message through the watch.

They found the prison where the other candidates were imprisoned, and also discovered the members of the Doomsday Society who were guarding the candidates.

Putting the doubt aside for the moment, Mo Hao headed to the agreed location to meet Su Zhilan.

…On the other side, Lao Dan rode his green ox slowly forward.

This may not be quite right, because Lao Dan half-closed his eyes as if taking a nap, and the green ox under him moved forward completely on its own without any restraint.

If Zou Yan had not given it a helping hand from time to time, Qingniu would have disappeared long ago.

In a place where the road is almost invisible, it is obviously impossible to make the blue ox walk along the road.

This is too much for a cow.

"I now believe what Confucius said about you." Zou Yan asked in front, "So you really ran to Hangu Pass alone with just one cow?"

"Well, I was lucky then."

"Do you think I believe this?"

Lao Dan’s answer was obviously not convincing. At least Zou Yan was very clear about the environment at that time.

Poor mountains and bad waters produce unruly people.

There was war, disorder in the army, and bandits were rampant.

Not to mention all those strange and bizarre creatures that are extremely malicious towards humans along the way.

Even in the Confucian and Mohist schools, people needed to travel with a group of people when going out.

A man led a cow and walked all the way to Hangu Pass without losing any limbs. An ordinary person would probably die ten times on the way.

Lao Dan attributed this to good luck, but Zou Yan was the first one to not believe it.

As a master of Yin-Yang, how could he not know what luck is?

Lao Dan had no intention of answering, and Zou Yan was not surprised, even though Lao Dan looked like he was in his seventies and was about to die.

Zou Yan estimated that even if a fight broke out, even if Confucius and Mozi joined forces, Lao Dan would still look like he was about to die of old age.

This is not credible at all.

The human heads dragged behind the blue bull have proved this more than once.

Behind the green ox, there are many human heads, and the hair of the human heads is used as ropes to tie the green ox to its body.

Some of those heads were sages from various schools of thought, some were overlords of a country, and some were aliens who tried to stop Lao Dan from collecting the King's Fire. They were crazy and didn't look like good people.

Lao Dan and Zou Yan set out from the Jixia Academy as a group, but they did not do nothing.

They said they wanted to collect the King Fire and the Nine Cauldrons, and they really did collect them.

“How long until the next destination?”

Zou Yan calculated for a while, then pointed in a direction and said, "Go this way, you will probably meet someone in the next area."

Zou Yan was no longer as concerned about Lao Dan's methods as he was the first time. When collecting the Royal Fire and the Nine Cauldrons, and persuading the sages of various schools of thought to help, Lao Dan showed extraordinary decisiveness.

As long as the sages of the Hundred Schools of Thought clearly expressed their intention to continue the cycle of reincarnation, Lao Dan would act decisively.

The final result was that there was another head behind the green bull.

Zou Yan was in charge of looking for people and things, while Lao Dan was in charge of persuasion and action, and the two worked together seamlessly.

The blue ox was still slowly trampling the green grass, but Zou Yan's voice sounded again, "Speaking of which, what happened when you first met Confucius? Why did you pass on such words afterwards?"

"What did he see in you that scared him like that?"

Lao Dan was silent for a while, then he uttered two words softly, "Secret."

Biographies of Laozi and Han Fei

Confucius said: "As for birds, I know that they can fly; as for beasts, I know that they can run; those that run can be used as nets, those that swim can be used as lines, and those that fly can be used as arrows. As for the dragon, I do not know how it can ride on the wind and clouds to ascend to the sky. Today I saw Laozi, is he like a dragon?"
