Zongwu: Aspiring to be the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 194 The Flaw of the Flying Knife, Slaying the Enemy in the Avici Pass
"Get out of my way!"

Meng Er's hands moved with lightning speed, and his punches were as heavy as hammer blows.

Countless fists rained down on Lu Xiaofeng like a storm.

Lu Xiaofeng, however, used only two fingers to block all the attacks.

He even had the leisure to joke, "Opportunities to kill a Second-Grandmaster are rare. If I kill you, I'll be famous throughout the land. Li Tanhua, you've already killed one, you can't compete with me for this one!"

Li Xunhuan held a throwing knife in his hand and laughed, "Alright, alright, I won't fight you for it. You can take care of this person."

"You...how dare you insult me ​​like this!"

Enraged, Meng Er unleashed his inner energy, intensifying his attack by three times.

Lu Xiaofeng immediately felt the pressure and could no longer joke around while fighting as he had before. He had to focus all his energy on dealing with this matter.

Li Xunhuan couldn't help but become more vigilant, watching the two fight closely, his fingers stroking the throwing knife as if he might strike at any moment.

Fighting against opponents of a higher level is not an easy task.

Li Xunhuan's strike, seemingly effortless, instantly killed Meng Da.

But in reality, it was a strike that consumed all his energy and spirit.

After that one strike, he had no strength left to attack.

Therefore, Lu Xiaofeng intervened to stop Meng Er and told Li Xunhuan not to make a move, saying that he didn't want Li Xunhuan to take away his enemy. In reality, he was just using this to cover up the fact that Li Xunhuan was already exhausted.

However, this truth remains unknown to others.

Seeing Meng Da killed with a single blow and Meng Er easily blocked by Lu Xiaofeng, the other two were stunned and could hardly believe what they were seeing.

Master Ji... or rather, the Blood Saber Ancestor of the Blood Saber Sect in the Western Regions, had more experience in the martial world. Seeing that the situation was not right, he silently took a few steps back and protected Qi Zimu in front of him.

But a chilling killing intent had appeared behind him without him even noticing.

Looking back, a figure in black stood tall, the demonic blade in his hand gleaming with blue-purple light.

"Easy...easy to end..."

Dominate the world!

Guihai Yidao didn't say a word, but suddenly unleashed a domineering and unparalleled blade aura.

Blood Blade Ancestor dared not be careless, and brandished his longsword, the crimson blade light already meeting the attack head-on.

The Blood Saber Sect's inherited martial art, the Blood Saber Scripture, is indeed a decent grandmaster-level martial art, but compared to the Overlord of the World, it is nothing special. Its only unique feature is its bizarre and unpredictable saber technique, which makes it difficult to anticipate when first encountering it.

Unfortunately, Blood Blade Ancestor had already demonstrated most of his moves just now.

Guihai Yidao already had a good understanding of this sword technique, so seeing it again now was not surprising at all.

The domineering and overwhelming sword energy pressed down like a mountain.

The crimson blade light shone brightly for only a few moments before being completely crushed by Xiong Ba Tian Xia.

The fragments of the demonic blade swept across the Blood Blade Ancestor's body, and drops of blood fell onto his longsword, truly transforming it into the 'Blood Blade'.

The battle between the two naturally alerted Qi Zimu.

He clearly witnessed the death of the Blood Saber Ancestor, then suddenly gave a bitter laugh and cursed, "Damn you, Heaven!"

He then unleashed his full power through the Dissolving Power Technique, slashing towards Guihai with a single strike.

Gui Hai showed no mercy, killing Qi Zimu with a single strike.

He then charged straight into the battle between Meng Er and Lu Xiaofeng.

Meng Er's battle was not enjoyable.

Lu Xiaofeng's Lingxi Finger is a defensive move. Although he can certainly use it to attack with his powerful finger strength, its power is only so-so. It can be used to beat up weak opponents, but it is obviously not good for dealing with strong enemies.

Moreover, he was facing a powerful enemy whose realm was higher than his own.

Lu Xiaofeng himself was aware of this flaw, but tonight, he just happened not to bring the Thunderclap Sword.

After all, he had no idea beforehand that Qi Zimu had secretly colluded with the Yuan Kingdom and that a large group of Yuan Kingdom experts would come to help him.

At this moment, he completely abandoned the offense and focused on defense, maximizing the power of the Spirit Finger.

No matter how much Meng Er punched, he couldn't budge those two fingers at all.

Meng Er tried to bypass the man, but found that the man's lightness skill was equally exquisite. No matter how he dodged and weaved, the other party was always able to block him.

Meanwhile, although Li Xunhuan did not make a move, he always held a throwing knife in his hand.

Whenever the flying knife reflected the moonlight and fell into his eyes, a chilling coldness would surge from his heart.

The image of his elder brother being instantly killed by a flying knife flashed through his mind.

Beneath the boundless anger lay an even deeper fear.

This forced Meng Er to be constantly on guard against Li Xunhuan, fearing that the throwing knife in his hand might suddenly disappear and then appear on his throat.

His distraction prevented him from immediately sensing the threat from other directions.

When Guihai Yidao's sharp blade appeared from behind, Meng Er suddenly realized this and hurriedly condensed his true energy to defend himself.

For a master who has condensed the Flower of Qi, the technique of True Qi Condensation can be used instantly, and its strength is comparable to some famous divine weapons in the martial arts world.

Examples include the Heaven-Slaying Sword, the Dragon-Slaying Saber, the True Martial Sword, and the Azure Blood Illuminating the Blue Sky.

These weapons may have impressive names, but in reality they only possess the attributes of sharpness or sturdiness, without any other special features.

Even the Qi Flower Grandmaster's condensed Qi might not be able to break through his defenses.

As for ordinary weapons, needless to say.

Of course, this refers to pure weaponry.

If these weapons are in the hands of some experts, then it's a different story.

For example, the throwing knife in Li Xunhuan's hand was just an ordinary weapon made in an ordinary blacksmith's shop, yet it was able to kill Meng Da instantly.

Guihai Yidao was a master in his own right.

The demonic blade in his hand was specially crafted by Zhou Ming. In terms of sharpness, it was no less than the Heaven-Slaying Sword or the Dragon-Slaying Saber, and was even stronger.

Such a sharp demonic blade, combined with the domineering power of Xiong Ba Tian Xia, unleashed a violent blade light that fell straight down, aiming directly at Meng Er's head.

Although Meng Er had the ability to condense his true qi for defense, he did not dare to be careless. He quickly turned his head to dodge, so that the blade light only landed on his shoulder.

With a cracking sound, the domineering sharpness shattered his protective qi defense.

The demonic blade cleaved through the flesh on his shoulder, but only penetrated an inch before being blocked by bone and muscle.

The other flower that Meng Er condensed was the Flower of Essence.

Therefore, he has a strong physique and can directly withstand the flow of Qi in his meridians, and even when it is applied to his muscles and bones, it will not have a negative impact on his body.

This gave his skin and flesh a defensive capability comparable to that of internal energy.

"What a fine knife!" Meng Er exclaimed sincerely.

The flesh and blood on his body and shoulders, more than an inch thick, were filled with steel-hard qi, yet it was still pierced by the demonic blade.

This means that the demonic blade sliced ​​through more than an inch of steel in an instant.

Its sharpness is certainly commendable.

But the next moment, his expression changed drastically.

He felt a strange power frantically draining his strength from his shoulder.

Startled, he quickly relaxed his muscles and dodged, causing the demonic blade to leave his body.

"The Demon Blade... no wonder it's called the Demon Blade..."

Guihai Yidao could also feel that in that instant, a strange power surged into his body, which restored a portion of his strength.

This made him suddenly understand why the knife in his hand was called the Demon Knife.

The original reason was that it could be broken down into thousands of fragments and manipulated at will.

Now it seems that I had oversimplified things!

However, the most urgent task at present is to kill Meng Er.

With a flick of the demonic blade, it shattered into countless fragments, which slithered away like snakes, tracking Meng Er.

In that instant, Meng Er personally sensed the evil aura of the demonic blade, and a sense of fear arose in his heart, prompting him to try to dodge.

Lu Xiaofeng had already appeared in the direction he was trying to dodge, directly stopping him and forcing Meng Er to respond.

Meng Er had no choice but to smash the fragments of the demonic sword with his fist.

But the demonic blade had barely been deflected when it came rushing back.

Fists flew and demonic blades danced wildly.

In the blink of an eye, the two had already collided more than a dozen times.

For a moment, Lu Xiaofeng found himself a mere spectator.

At this moment, Li Xunhuan suddenly spoke up: "Let's finish this quickly, or the Yuan Kingdom's reinforcements will arrive soon." As he spoke, the throwing knife he was playing with paused, as if he was about to throw it again.

Lu Xiaofeng instantly blocked his way, saying, "I don't need your help. I refuse to believe that the two of us can't defeat a Second-Grandmaster!"

He knew perfectly well that in such a short time, Li Xunhuan would not be able to recover his fighting strength.

It seemed like they were about to take action, but in reality, they were just trying to remind them.

indeed.

This time, the Yuan Kingdom sent not just two people, but a whole army. It's just that Meng Da and Meng Er were arrogant and arrived first, leaving the others behind.

Given the current situation of the battle between the two sides, it will probably take some time to completely defeat Meng Er.

But they didn't have that time.

If the Yuan army arrives and Meng Er is still alive, that would be disastrous.

Guihai Yidao had witnessed the conversation between the two and understood the situation. He said, "Hero Lu, stop him!"

"it is good!"

Lu Xiaofeng nodded quickly and appeared in front of Meng Er in a flash.

The Spiritual Finger technique was unleashed once again.

Thousands of fragments returned to the hilt, reassembling to form the blade of the demonic sword.

In the next instant, an eerie, terrifying, and incredibly powerful aura burst forth from Guihai Yidao's body.

"Master Lu... please step aside..."

Lu Xiaofeng quickly dodged, only to see Yi Jue's face contorted in a ferocious grimace, his teeth clenched, and his eyes gleaming with a faint bloodlust.

Dressed in black, he looked like a demon in the darkness.

For a moment, Lu Xiaofeng felt a sense of fear.

Although the sensation only subsided momentarily, it still terrified him.

"What...what kind of martial art is this?!"

Three cuts in the nose!

Guihai raised his Demon Blade Thousand Blades high and suddenly slashed downwards, unleashing a strange and powerful blade of light.

Meng Er stood there, stunned.

This was naturally because he had been subjected to the mental attack of the Three Blades of Avici Hell, and instantly felt as if he had fallen into the Avici Hell. Countless terrifying scenes appeared before his eyes, as if countless sharp blades were cutting every inch of his body.

But after all, he is a second-level master.

In his hallucination, he suddenly felt an instinctive fear of death.

This feeling of fear terrified him, instantly breaking through the illusion, and he saw a terrifying and sinister blade of light slashing towards him.

He quickly dodged to the side, but was still struck on the shoulder by the blade and lost his right arm instantly.

He actually dodged it...

Guihai Yidao hadn't expected this either.

This was the first enemy to dodge the three blades of Avici Hell.

A pure lotus blooms in my heart, and countless beautiful memories take root in the sea of ​​stars, converging into a familiar face.

"Begonia..."

Gui Haiyi muttered to himself, then gripped the demonic blade tightly and unleashed another slash of sword energy.

The demonic blade strikes, hell comes first.

The terrifying visions of hell resurfaced before Meng Er's eyes.

"Get out of my way!"

Having learned from his previous experience, Meng Er immediately focused his mind and broke through the illusion.

But the illusion had barely faded when the demonic blade was already in front of them.

He clenched his fist, his inner energy completely concentrated in that iron fist.

"I can't die! I don't want to die!"

An iron fist met the demonic blade.

Boundless power collided with the eerie and terrifying sword energy, and the resulting shockwaves stirred up dust.

Amidst the smoke and dust, the demonic blade that had been slashing down suddenly stopped.

Driven by his will to survive, Meng Er unleashed his full power.

With his last remaining iron fist, he stopped the demonic blade from continuing its downward strike.

"I... blocked it..."

Meng Er was overjoyed.

But in an instant, Gui Haiyi's eyes turned bloodshot, and his Demon Blade Thousand Blades disintegrated into countless fragments, which he then suddenly slashed horizontally.

In an instant, Meng Er's head was severed.

Pfft!
The leader landed.

A hint of joy at surviving lingered in Meng Er's eyes.

The battle has now come to an end.

Guihai Yidao, however, maintained his posture of slashing horizontally with his longsword.

Lu Xiaofeng spoke up: "Master Yi?"

Swish!
Countless fragments slashed towards them, but fortunately, they were not accompanied by that sinister blade energy, and were easily caught by Lu Xiaofeng's two fingers.

Guihai Yidao looked up, and the bloodshot in his eyes finally disappeared.

"Sorry, I was a little stressed just now..."

"It's alright...it's alright..."

Lu Xiaofeng released the fragments of the demonic sword and said with some lingering fear.

The demonic sword was sheathed.

Gui Haiyi clasped his hands in thanks and said, "Thank you both for saving me."

"No need to thank me. I was just looking for the truth, and it just happened to be the right time."

Lu Xiaofeng waved his hand and said, "Let's hurry back. If we wait any longer, the Yuan Kingdom's reinforcements will really arrive."

"it is good."

The three immediately turned and left.

On a distant mountaintop, Ah Da described the scene he had witnessed.

"what?!"

Zhao Min was shocked: "The Grand Commander and the Second Commander are dead? You're not mistaken, are you? They were both Second-Grandmasters!"

Ah Da hurriedly replied, "I absolutely cannot be mistaken."

Zhao Min said, "It's not that I doubt you, it's just that this matter sounds unbelievable..."

"I can hardly believe it either, but this is indeed what I saw."

"Um……"

Zhao Min nodded.

"Princess, what should we do now?"

"What do you mean?"

Zhao Min retorted, "We're just here tonight to watch the fun, not to participate in their operation... No, that's not right, we didn't even come tonight!"

"My subordinate understands!"

"Alright, take me back now!"

"Yes!"

The group arrived and left silently.

I did nothing but watch the spectacle.

After a few minutes.

More than a dozen figures dressed in Yuan Dynasty attire arrived at the scene, and upon seeing the corpses, they were all horrified.

After some discussion, they had no choice but to collect the body and leave.
