Shushan: Extinction

Chapter 52: Beating the Young Master

Half an hour later,

Gong Tianwu, who was walking slowly by the river, suddenly frowned and stopped.

The Xujia Wharf, a mile ahead, was already in sight. There was a boat that had been rented long ago and was ready to set sail at any time and take Gong Tianwu downstream.

But at this moment, Gong Tianwu felt like he was being watched, as if something was staring at him in the darkness in the distance, and more importantly, it was full of malice.

After a few seconds, Gong Tianwu even felt that the temperature around him had dropped a lot, so much so that goose bumps appeared on his arms little by little.

Fortunately, he is no longer the ignorant country boy, but a great master who has reached the innate realm. Moreover, traveling thousands of miles is like reading thousands of books. He has also gained a lot of knowledge by running around and chatting with people.

Soon, Gong Tianwu realized that he was being targeted by some evil creature.

He immediately stood still, without distraction, silently practicing the Purple Qi Cave Secret, and a breath of innate energy had already been stored in his chest and abdomen. To outsiders, he looked relaxed all over, with his eyes half closed, as if he was so lazy that he was about to fall asleep in the next second.

But in fact, at this moment Gong Tianwu's perception has reached the highest point. He can clearly hear the flying of mosquitoes and flies and the rising and falling of dust within five meters around him!

Of course, to achieve such an effect, the high spiritual awareness of 54 points also played a decisive role.

This is the power of the innate masters. They can already communicate with the heaven and earth to a limited extent and try to comprehend various laws.

And when their understanding of the laws of heaven and earth has reached a certain level and they can try to turn it into their own strength, they will embark on the road to becoming a Martial Saint. Of course, from ancient times to the present, countless people have fallen on this road, and some are even just steps away from the end of the road.

Suddenly, Gong Tianwu's ears moved. He didn't see anything with his eyes, but he could sense that the trajectory of a willow leaf slowly falling next to him suddenly changed.

It suddenly rushed upwards without any warning, as if it was supported by an invisible big hand. The key point was that the willow leaves about one or two meters away did not change at all, so it could not be the wind.

Gong Tianwu took a half step forward and then slapped forward with his palm.

Although there seemed to be nothing there, Gong Tianwu could clearly feel that the internal force he exhaled had clearly touched something!
Immediately afterwards, an extremely shrill scream was heard from the front. The air began to fluctuate rapidly, and the vision was somewhat affected. About two or three seconds later, a ball of fire suddenly burned from five or six meters away. It looked like a bunch of messy hair was ignited, and it quickly turned into black smoke and disappeared.

This is the real body of the Yin ghost driven by Li Gefei. This guy is very cruel and kills people without being seen. But unfortunately, he met Gong Tianwu, his nemesis! !

You know, the Purple Air Cave Secret is originally a pure Taoist mental method, which is naturally effective in exorcising evil spirits and demons. More importantly, what is the core of this internal skill? The purple air!

That was a trace of the most genuine and existent Yang and harmony energy brewing between heaven and earth, and it came from the morning sun! For ghosts whose nature was extremely evil, it was their natural nemesis.

When have you ever seen those ghosts dare to move in the sun? Moreover, how powerful can the ghosts driven by Li Gefei, a rookie monk, be? After being hit by Gong Tianwu's palm, although they were only swept by the palm wind, they could not bear it at all.

But just as I was delayed, I heard a loud cry:
"Good thief, kneel down and take out the things immediately, and I will spare your life today."

Then, a fat guy in the distance quickly caught up with him, holding a shining silver sword in his hand. When he saw Gong Tianwu, he made a sword gesture and shouted:

"go with!"

Gong Tianwu immediately felt that this guy looked familiar. After thinking carefully, wasn't he the fat white guy who was so arrogant that he saw him before? He didn't expect that he was actually a cultivator?

Immediately afterwards, the small silver sword shot towards Gong Tianwu at an astonishing speed.

The person who came was none other than Li Gefei.

However, this guy had already threatened before he arrived, which made Gong Tianwu prepare in advance. He had already picked up the goose-feather knife and iron wood shield in his hands.

So even though this sword was extremely powerful and imposing, it was dodged by Gong Tianwu.

This is like a seasoned soldier dodging bullets. The speed of the bullet is indeed beyond the reach of human reaction, but as long as one predicts and dodges based on the shooter's aiming movements and shooting habits, one can successfully dodge it, and it works every time.

However, although Li Gefei's sword was not accurate enough, it was powerful enough. After being dodged, its remaining force was enough to cut off a willow tree next to it, and then it turned into a ray of light and flew back.

After missing the target, Li Gefei did not feel any sense of crisis. Instead, he looked at the willow tree that was slowly falling down with a "crackling" sound with a proud look on his face, and then roared at Gong Tianwu:

"Rat! It will be your turn soon!"

Gong Tianwu suddenly stepped sideways, his shoulder already pressed against the door next to him, and he exerted force! The door immediately broke into several pieces, flew inside with a bang, and then he disappeared directly from Li Gefei's sight.

Li Gefei was not idle at this time, but quietly mobilized his spiritual power, preparing to activate another talisman: Earthbinding.

After this talisman hits the enemy, as long as the enemy's feet are still on the ground, he will feel as if he is stuck in a half-foot deep quagmire, making it difficult for him to move. What's more important is that once the talisman is successfully activated, the enemy will be hit as long as he is being watched by you.

But at this moment, Gong Tianwu suddenly disappeared from his sight. Li Gefei was so upset that he wanted to vomit blood! He wanted to catch the other person and slap him twice, and then question him:
"Are you a loach? How can you run so fast?"

So Li Gefei chased after him without hesitation. The effect of the magic talisman would last for more than an hour before it expired.

But just as Li Gefei reached the gate, a figure suddenly jumped out from inside. It was Gong Tianwu!! It turned out that he didn't escape at all!!

What's even more exaggerated is that the powder arrived before Gong Tian and his five companions, and a cloud of white powder flew over their heads. He was not burdened by any despicable fighting methods, and an effective fighting method was the best fighting method.

Li Gefei was immediately panicked. You know, he thought that his rich combat experience was nothing more than the result of sparring with his fellow disciples and fighting with a large group of cultivators.

What is the same thing as a fight between two people? It's like a fighting game, face to face 123, and then there are many methods that cannot be used.
Following a large group of cultivators to fight is even more brainless. For a second-generation immortal like Li Gefei, he will definitely use all his long-range and defensive means to the maximum. His companions will rush to the front to attract firepower, while he will chant, use magic weapons and talismans in the back, and use money to beat the enemy to death.

Is such combat experience useful? Of course it is.

However, in such a narrow pursuit, especially facing a guy like Gong Tianwu who has no bottom line and uses despicable and shameless fighting methods, it is really hard to say how much effect this experience can have.

Facing the poisonous powder blowing towards him, Li Gefei took it all in and immediately screamed in pain.

While sprinkling the powder, Gong Tianwu turned left and slashed out with the Yanling Knife!

It may seem redundant for him to add a left turn here, but it is actually to prevent the enemy from immediately and painfully counterattacking according to the direction he remembers after being poisoned by the poison powder.

However, Li Gefei, a bronze-level noob, did not have the awareness of a gold-level player, so he just flirted with the blind man.
However, the blade of the knife that was chopped down was suddenly flashing with an extremely sharp white light. This was a manifestation of the innate true energy being injected into the blade, commonly known as sword energy.

This seemingly ordinary strike consumed more than one fifth of Gong Tianwu's innate true energy! !

However, just when the knife was about to hit Li Gefei, a jade pendant on his waist flashed automatically. Gong Tianwu felt as if the knife had hit something extremely flexible. It could not advance an inch and even bounced back.

This is the spiritual protective pendant that Ming Zhenzi spent a huge amount of money to buy for his son. It can automatically protect its master at critical moments.

In fact, this thing is owned by every high-level cultivator, but it is extremely rare for a novice at the third level of Qi Refining to be able to wear it and make use of it.

This thing is similar to the cloth clothes with 2-12 defense and the ebony sword with 0-6 defense in Legend of Mir . It doesn't mean much in the later stages, but it is a magic weapon for newcomers and rookies.

The attack that he was determined to achieve failed and was rebounded violently, which immediately made Gong Tianwu gasp for breath. Golden sparks appeared in front of his eyes and his chest was filled with nausea. He immediately dodged and jumped into the darkness.

Of course, Li Gefei didn't know all this at the time, because his head and face were covered with poison powder, his face was extremely painful and itchy, and his eyes were extremely painful, tears overflowed, making it difficult for him to see.

Fortunately, Li Gefei is an authentic second-generation immortal, and he has many fine items on him. In a panic, he slapped his waist and recited the secret to activate the magic weapon.

Suddenly, a small red gourd was seen rising quietly, and a white mist spurted out from the mouth of the gourd, wrapping Li Gefei in it. There were also some illusions of nectar pouring down from it, and Li Gefei's abnormal state quickly returned to normal.

Although Li Gefei recovered strongly again and all the traps set by Gong Tianwu seemed to be in vain, but in fact, the young master had lost his fighting spirit when looking at the dark front. After all, the biggest problem of the second generation of immortals is the lack of indomitable courage.

Of course, the more realistic point is that Li Gefei’s spiritual power has been almost exhausted!
Yes, the talismans and magic weapons on this guy are all top-grade, but in the final analysis, Li Gefei is just a useless guy who has been stuck at the third level of Qi Refining for decades. To use these talismans and magic weapons, he has to consume his own spiritual power to drive them.

At this time, Li Gefei had already figured out the opponent's strength. He was an absolute innate master. He immediately realized that this was not someone he could control at will.

There is a consensus in the world that once one reaches the innate realm, he or she is basically out of the realm of ordinary people.

A master of innate martial arts can fight against a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi Refining, not to mention that Li Gefei himself is stuck at the third to fourth level of Qi Refining?
However, the number of innate masters of martial arts is much smaller than that of those in the middle stage of Qi Refining. The number of innate masters in a country is not even one-third of the Qi Refining disciples in the sects that rule it, not to mention that there are many elders in the Foundation Establishment stage in the sects.

The five words "Xianmen rules the world" are not just a reputation in vain!

In this situation, Li Gefei hurriedly took out a small pill and threw it into his mouth to quickly replenish his spiritual power. Looking at the dark house in front of him, he had already decided to retreat, and he cursed directly at the front:
"You thief, I'll spare your life today because I have something to do, but I'll have people catch you and skin you alive later."

As a result, before Li Gefei finished speaking, he saw a wolf-toothed arrow shot at him from the side! There was a bit of indestructible cold light on the tip of the arrow, pointing directly at Li Gefei's heart.

The young master was cursing and swearing when he suddenly encountered such a thing. His eyes widened and he was so frightened that his scalp went numb. He rolled on the ground in a very embarrassed manner and finally avoided the arrow.

However, the arrow that followed was not so easy to dodge. Li Gefei had just crawled up from the ground in a very embarrassed manner when another wolf-tooth arrow shot from the darkness. The speed of this arrow was not fast, but the angle was very tricky.

The spiritual protective pendant sensed the danger that was approaching, and a flash of light flashed on its surface but quickly dimmed - it had just used up all its energy to block Gong Tianwu's full-strength sword attack, and now it was no longer able to do anything.

So the arrow went straight into Li Gefei's lower abdomen. Poor Mr. Li had been pampered since he was a child and had never suffered such a pain. He felt a chill in his lower abdomen, and immediately an indescribable pain came from the injured area.

Master Li opened his eyes wide and immediately let out a shrill scream. He staggered back a few steps and leaned against the wall next to him, cursing loudly with gritted teeth. However, he did not panic. Instead, he took a defensive posture.

Gong Tianwu was a little surprised at this. Shouldn't this guy lose his fighting spirit, cry and scream and run away? He actually made the most rational choice?

This is a knowledge misunderstanding of Gong Tianwu. In order to cater to readers, storytellers and the like always like to forcibly lower the intelligence of young scoundrels and playboys, making this group appear to be very stupid. However, this is almost impossible.

Higher status, more nutrition and continuing education may bring about negative effects such as arrogance, overconfidence and bullying, but it definitely does not mean that this group is clumsy and incompetent and can be manipulated at will.

In a word: You can say that this group is bad or evil, but you cannot say that they are bad or stupid!
