This is not how immortals cultivate

Chapter 12: Calm Mind, Fierce Will

The two parties collided in an open space between the trees.

The constables had an absolute advantage in numbers, most of them were enlightened, and their fighting power was not inferior at all. However, the Five Poison Sect's vicious men had special skills, were good at using poison, and their weapons were even more unpopular, making it difficult to defend against them.

The two sides fought together. Although the detectives outnumbered them, they were restricted and unable to gain the upper hand.

In the middle of the crowd, Liu Jingsheng was confronting a zombie man with a livid face. The long sword in his hand emitted a cold mist, which deflected the remaining light of the cold moon and stung the zombie man's eyes, causing them to narrow into two thin slits. He became extremely alert.

When masters fight, they compare heights first.

No, let me say something harsh first.

"'Fengxian Iron Constable' Liu Jingsheng, I have heard of your reputation. With your martial arts skills, it is a waste of your talent to be a constable."

The zombie man spoke in a stiff accent, and sneered, "How much is your monthly salary? How famous is your reputation? How much hardship have you endured? How much credit have you received? You have lived a life of mediocrity, and you are sick and injured when you are old, and you still need your wife and children to take care of you. How pathetic!"

Faced with such sarcasm, Liu Jingsheng nodded: "Your Excellency's words make sense. In this case, I will borrow your head in exchange for a better future!"

The zombie man didn't say anything harsh. He snorted coldly and pulled out the scimitar dagger hanging on his waist.

This knife is shaped like a crescent moon, short and narrow, and resembles a dog's tooth. It is not like an ordinary weapon. The blade emits a faint blue light and is coated with a deadly poison that can kill instantly upon contact with blood.

Liu Jingsheng was not afraid at all. With a long sword in his hand, he took a few big steps and appeared in front of the zombie man in an instant.

The knife flashed like a tiger out of the cage, and wherever the blade pointed, the wind whistled. One strike caused the wind to whistle, making people afraid and dare not resist.

The zombie man didn't dare to block with the dagger. He took a deep breath to defend himself and suddenly retreated a foot. When Liu Jingsheng's knife power became three points less fierce, he grabbed the dagger with his backhand, rushed forward, and slashed at Liu Jingsheng's neck.

His body was stiff, but his speed was incredibly fast.

The faint cold light spread out a chilling murderous intent, and a foul odor spread in all directions.

Liu Jingsheng's old strength had not yet gone, but new strength suddenly emerged. It was obvious that he had deliberately exposed a flaw, intentionally letting the zombie man seize the opportunity. Before the poisonous blade could get close to him, he dodged it with his exquisite footwork.

At this point, the zombie man's middle door opened wide, and Liu Jingsheng put the knife to his abdomen.

The battle between masters is like a game of chess. One wrong move leads to all wrong moves.

Bai Lian's sword flashed instantly, and the zombie man barely blocked it with his dagger. The next few consecutive blocks were all defensive, making up for the carelessness in the first move.

Liu Jingsheng's sword wielding power was as fierce as a tiger pouncing on its prey; every time he swung his sword, it was full of momentum and contained overwhelming force.

He fought fast, and the shadow of the sword light became faster and faster, not giving the zombie man any chance to use his strange skills or poison. In addition, every time he swung his sword, his spirit and energy increased by three points, and the power of the long sword in his hand also soared.

After more than ten moves, the zombie man was unable to block anymore and the dagger was knocked out.

Without a weapon in his hand, the zombie man's face was filled with extreme fear. Facing the knife that was about to chop his chest, he gritted his teeth and grabbed Liu Jingsheng's ribs with both hands, wanting to exchange his life for his injury.

Liu Jingsheng's long knife pointed at the zombie man's chest, touching the Danzhong point, making a sound of metal clashing.

He seemed to have anticipated this, and he raised the tip of his knife to avoid the poisonous claws that were stabbing at his left and right ribs. He turned around and slashed the zombie man's eyes with the blade.

A few spots of blood splattered, and there was a suppressed groan.

The zombie man and Liu Jingsheng passed each other. He raised his hand to cover his right eye, and blood kept oozing out from between his fingers.

He avoided losing both eyes at the last moment, but one of his eyes was still stabbed.

"You used the poisonous blade to confuse me, to cover up your claw and hard skills, and then pretended to be careless and underestimated me to trick me into getting close. Your Excellency is thoughtful, but I have seen at least 8,000 such schemes as yours."

Liu Jingsheng said coldly: "You haven't mastered the horizontal training skills yet, and you have many weaknesses. You dare to let this constable get close to you? It's better for you to be blind."

The zombie man was furious. He thought his plan had worked and he could kill Liu Jingsheng with one move. However, he didn't expect that he was just a clown in the eyes of the other party.

And lost an eye!

The two fought again. The zombie man lost one eye and made many mistakes in a hurry. If it weren't for his superb horizontal training skills, which made his body as invulnerable as a zombie, he would have been beheaded long ago.

Even so, he was at a disadvantage, and he only cared about protecting his weak spot, and was about to be captured. Xiang Yuan stood on the periphery, shouting with several constables holding long knives, and slashing the air with great effort.

Swords and knives are ruthless in the battlefield. He has no combat experience and is afraid of disrupting his own people's formation. He is even more afraid of being suddenly attacked by the enemy.

Just shout as hard as you can to scare the enemy and create psychological pressure, and then you can play a supporting role.

At the same time, he witnessed the entire battle between Liu Jingsheng and the zombie man. The two men's movements and moves were extremely fast, and he could not see the whole picture. He only saw that Liu Jingsheng's swordsmanship was fierce, which was similar to the essence of the Five Tigers Breaking Door Sword.

The mind is as calm as still water and the will is as fierce as a tiger!
Control the sword with a calm mind and intimidate the enemy with the power of a tiger!

Xiang Yuan said he had learned it, and when he was happy, his headache suddenly attacked and he grimaced in pain.

"I finally met a master to fight with, but I have a headache at this moment..."

Xiang Yuan complained secretly. On the other side, there was a faint sound of wind blowing. Judging from the direction, it should be that the constables from the Six Gates noticed something and sent people over for support.

Hearing the news, the detectives were greatly encouraged, and the vicious men from the Five Poison Sect roared in anger. Several of them risked being stabbed several times to remove the poisonous insects and poisons from the quivers at their backs.

Suddenly, there was a gust of cold wind and a fishy smell.

Several constables fell asleep without saying a word.

Even though Liu Jingsheng's heart was as cold as a knife, he couldn't help but panic when he saw this situation. His knife missed and the zombie man seized the opportunity. After jumping away, he made several moves in a row and seized the opportunity to use his poison skills.

Black smoke came out of his mouth and poisonous miasma spread.

The poisonous miasma was like will-o'-the-wisp and fog, spreading at an alarming speed. Liu Jingsheng swung his sword to cut it apart. Several vicious men from the Five Poison Sect flew into the air and pounced towards him.

He slashed with his sword, splitting it in two.

The zombie man grabbed several disciples along the way and threw them at Liu Jingsheng like sandbags, then he dived into the woods, and his whereabouts were hard to find after the rustling sound.

The other vicious men from the Five Poison Sect did not dare to fight, and followed the example of their leader, hiding in the woods and fleeing in all directions.

"It's not that easy!"

Liu Jingsheng held a knife in one hand, and the other hand turned into an afterimage. Four cold rays flew out, and the four vicious men from the Five Poisons Sect fell to the ground.

Throwing knives.

He wanted to order the detectives to chase after them, but he saw that everyone had either fallen in the poisonous miasma or was hiding far away, and they had long lost their formation, so he had to give up.

"This captain of the police is going to arrest the bandit leader. You guys hurry up and rescue them. When the Six Gates arrive, inform them of the situation." Liu Jingsheng shrugged his nose and rushed towards the direction where the zombie man disappeared with a knife.

In any case, the thieves escaped through the small path guarded by the detectives, and only by capturing the bandit leader could they give an explanation to their superiors.

The detectives wielded their swords to blow away the poisonous miasma and dragged their poisoned colleagues to a safe area. Xiang Yuan did not retreat this time. He used his Five Tigers Breaking Door Sword with all his might and really rescued two colleagues.

The third time he rushed into the poisonous miasma, Xiang Yuan felt a little dizzy. He inhaled some poisonous gas and staggered.

At the critical moment, another crisis arose. A vicious man from the Five Poison Sect who was lying on the ground suddenly jumped up and rushed over with a dagger in his hand.

His face was covered in blood, and he pretended to be a dead body, waiting for an opportunity to break out of Xiang Yuan's place and survive.

The timing he chose was very clever. The detectives were busy rescuing people and scattered in all directions. No one noticed his "corpse" at all. Even if they wanted to save him, it was too late.

Just kill Xiang Yuan and you can get into the woods.

He's just a young boy, a newly recruited constable. How can he block one of my moves?
Just a little trick will do.

The murderous man roared angrily, quickened his pace, and his blade became even faster.

Xiang Yuan was still a little dazed and was awakened by the loud shout. Seeing the "corpse" with blood all over its face and looking like an evil ghost, he subconsciously tried to dodge.

Suddenly, the figure of Liu Jingsheng flying a sword flashed before his eyes. His eyes widened and his mind instantly calmed down. His hands and feet moved faster than his brain and he followed suit, taking a step forward and chopping down with the sword.

The force penetrates the tip of the knife, as white as lightning, so fierce and powerful that all around it fall down, like a tiger descending from the mountain!
