Start from a baby to become a Taoist

Chapter 413 Devour!

"The moves have changed!"

Suddenly, the eldest brother's voice rang in their ears, instantly attracting the attention of the junior sister and the second brother, who both looked towards the arena.

Then, the remaining dozens of shadows simultaneously sheathed their ring-pommel swords, and in an instant, the hilts spun at an extremely tricky angle in their palms.

"Om-"

"."

As the ring-pommel sword spun in his palm, streaks of white sword light rose from its tip, and suddenly, dozens of sword lights attacked Xu Ran from all directions.

As they flew through the air, these dozens of blades of light autonomously wove themselves into a chain-like net of light.

The newly formed net of light instantly blocked all of Xu Ran's escape routes, and he was completely enveloped by the net of light.

Wherever the light network passed, bursts of sonic booms echoed in the air, extremely piercing.

Upon seeing this, Xu Ran felt a sense of crisis.

"They'll change their tactics again?"

He was a little surprised.

I thought these figures were already incredibly powerful, knowing how to use a combination move, but I never expected they had a second move.

Moreover, this second combination move appeared unusually abruptly.

If the first combo move slowly emerged from the water and was traceable, then this net of light appeared completely out of nowhere.

There were no prior moves to set the stage, and the speed was extremely fast, which meant that even Xu Ran was unable to identify its weaknesses in such a short time.

"Hmph!" Xu Ran snorted coldly upon seeing this. "Interesting!"

Immediately, his gaze became intense, and his eyes filled with anticipation.

"I wonder, how does my newly mastered swordsmanship compare to your net of light?"

That's right.

The sword technique that Xu Ran used to successfully kill those three figures was something he learned from their sword techniques.

The horizontal slash just now wasn't a real sword technique, so there was no way to test its power.

But now, this optical network has given him a chance to experiment.

Even if his sword technique failed, he still had his physical strength to withstand it, so there was no problem.

Moreover, there's no way that's possible; Xu Ran has complete confidence in the sword technique he's mastered!
As he pondered, the net of light formed by dozens of blades had already arrived in front of Xu Ran, its immense killing intent surging straight at his face.

The sharp edge he faced seemed capable of cutting Xu Ran into pieces the size of meat.

If Xu Ran hadn't experienced many trials and tribulations, this immense killing intent alone would have been enough to stop most people here.

"Layered Wave Slash!"

Just as the optical network was about to arrive, Xu Ran roared.

Simultaneously.

His body turned to the left, and the ring-pommel sword in his right hand seemed to twist in the air, rolling up and down like waves.

Suddenly.

"Wow—"

Suddenly, the sound of waves seemed to rise throughout the arena. At the same time, the mist in the arena seemed to be purified, and a fresh scent filled the air, making people feel relaxed and happy!
"What's that sound? Waves?" The junior sister was puzzled when she heard the sound. "But where are the waves here? And there's a pleasant fragrance too!"

This is a nine-story tower, and it's still in the midst of a trial. How could there be the sound of ocean waves? How could there be a fragrant aroma?

"It's Xu Ran!"

The second senior brother immediately provided the answer.

"Look at the ring-pommel sword in his hand. The swordsmanship he wields distorts space, making it resemble ocean waves, rising and falling, with power layer upon layer!"

The second senior brother, with his extremely rich combat experience, immediately recognized the power of Xu Ran's swordsmanship.

"That's absolutely right!" the senior brother agreed. "The power of this sword technique is getting stronger and stronger. As long as Xu Ran can swing it a lot enough times, its power will accumulate to an unparalleled level!"

When the eldest brother spoke, his tone was full of praise.

Xu Ran.

In such a short period of time, a child who is not even two years old can transform from someone who knows absolutely no swordsmanship into someone who can create his own swordsmanship.

Moreover, the level of this swordsmanship is not low.

Wave Slash.

That's a sword technique that can be stacked infinitely. In theory, as long as you have enough strength, you can stack it to an extremely terrifying level.

Given time, it might be able to directly penetrate the space of the Origin Realm!
"interesting!"

The bald man in the arena, seeing Xu Ran's swordsmanship, strained his throat and shouted hoarsely.

His voice sounded extremely excited.

This excitement was like finding a perfect opponent, an unparalleled thrill.

This excitement will reach its peak as he completely defeats Xu Ran!

The onlookers were stunned.

Xu Ran swung his knife.

"A stack!"

Instantly, a blue blade of light slashed out, cleaving through the light net to Xu Ran's left.

"boom--"

With a loud bang, a gap appeared in the light net, the very spot where Xu Ran's Wave Slash had been aimed.

This light net was originally intended to completely block all of Xu Ran's routes, whether forward or backward.

Now, a gap has appeared in the light net, enough for Xu Ran to escape.

But before we could even get excited...

The light net, which had just been partially torn, was instantly repaired.

At the same time, as Xu Ran blocked from the right, three blades of light shot out from the net of light like venomous snakes.

"Double stack!"

Xu Ran reacted quickly, adjusted the direction of the blade, and slashed out again.

"boom--"

Suddenly, two huge roars rose up in front of Xu Ran.

"Pfft!"

Amidst the two booming sounds, there was also the sound of something entering flesh and blood.

Follow the sound.

I saw.

One of the blade beams struck Xu Ran squarely on the left shoulder.

Although Xu Ran's "double stack" did have some effect.

However, three blades of light were a bit too many. Moreover, he had only just created the 'Layered Wave Slash'. Even though he was the founder, he was still not proficient enough and there were still many flaws.

They couldn't defend themselves properly and one of the blade beams broke through their defenses.

The moment he was hit in the left shoulder, Xu Ran groaned and turned around.

His fighting instincts allowed him to make the best decision immediately.

Injured, his first priority was to escape the encirclement of the light net.

Although he is injured now, it doesn't mean he hasn't gained anything.

With two light nets missing on the left, as long as he's fast enough, he can escape the encirclement before they're repaired.

result.

Just as he set off, the blade's edge arrived, repairing the gap and blocking Xu Ran's path once again.

"This fiber optic network is really annoying!"

Xu Ran felt helpless.

Before he could catch his breath, Xu Ran's eyes narrowed sharply, and he began to maneuver and shift his weight in the cramped space.

"The optical network is starting to shrink!"

The junior sister, who was observing Xu Ran's trial, exclaimed in surprise when she saw the change in the light net in the arena.

I saw.

At this moment, the repaired light net began to shrink as if it were alive, and at the same time, blade light attacked Xu Ran from all directions.

The sharp blade tore through Xu Ran's clothes the moment it touched him, leaving spiderweb-like streaks of blood all over his body. In an instant.

Xu Ran's entire body was now covered in blood.

at this time.

He was looking at Xu Ran's bald head when he saw that Xu Ran's body had turned into a bloody mess, and he became somewhat agitated.

"Finally, he got hurt!"

But the smile on his face froze the next moment.

I looked in the direction of his huge, wide eyes.

I saw.

Xu Ran, whose body was bleeding from all the wounds just now, is now scabbing over at an astonishing speed. As the muscles break and heal, fine golden lines appear, binding them together.

In the blink of an eye, Xu Ran had recovered completely, leaving only dried bloodstains on his body.

Upon seeing this, the bald man suddenly roared.

"Draw the knife!"

These two words were like an irresistible military order, and the remaining figures plunged their ring-pommel swords into their already illusory bodies.

"Pfft--"

"."

For a while.

On the arena, the sounds of blades piercing flesh echoed, as if these figures were truly made of flesh and blood, while the ring-pommel swords seemed to be entering illusory bodies.

In reality, that real sound truly penetrated into flesh and blood.

These figures, who autonomously plunged their ring-pommel swords into their hearts, had no expression on their faces. At this moment, they were like machines, only capable of executing commands!

Insert the ring-pommel knife into the heart and hold it there for one breath.

"Sizzle--"

at the same time.

Dozens of blades were pulled out of the flesh and blood, and the sound of flesh and blood being pulled out of the blades was heard. Dozens of figures had pulled the ring-pommel swords out of the heart.

"There really is blood on the knife!"

The junior sister gasped in shock when she saw the ring-pommel sword with its blade stained with blood.

The two senior brothers sat in place, their faces expressionless, only staring at the figures with some curiosity.

"Shh-"

All of a sudden.

Dozens of blade beams shot out again from the ring-pommel swords among these figures.

The speed is faster than before.

The blade's edge was brighter than before.

Its power is even greater than before.

The color, compared to before, was a deep red, as if it had been stained with blood!

These blood-red blade lights combined again in the air, forming a large net that covered Xu Ran.

On this large net, there seems to be a small, finely chopped piece of meat.

Xu Ran stood still, his face flushed red by the incoming red light net, his eyes gleaming with a magnificent light.

"interesting!"

Xu Ran said the same thing as the bald man.

"In that case, let me show you my third strike!"

After saying that, Xu Ran gripped the ring-pommel sword, and ripples of energy spread outwards from his body.

When these shockwaves hit a physical object, they bounce back and return to Xu Ran.

Each ripple, returning to Xu Ran, would amplify the aura of the ring-pommel sword in his hand.

For a while.

The entire arena was filled with Xu Ran's aura, as if the arena would be completely crushed by Xu Ran's aura at any moment!

"This is the third cut!"

When the second senior brother saw Xu Ran's current appearance, he also exclaimed in surprise!

Originally, it was thought that Xu Ran's ability to create a sword technique like 'Layered Wave Slash' was already a testament to his extraordinary talent.

As a result, he was able to make a second cut right after creating the sword technique.

Originally, it was thought that Xu Ran's ability to unleash a second strike at the point where he created the sword technique was already his limit.

result.

Even in dire straits, he was still able to unleash a third strike.

These three cuts were not just a simple third cut.

This third strike combines the power of the previous two strikes into a single, powerful blow!

This third strike was extremely terrifying.

"Xu Ran is too monstrous!"

The eldest brother was also dumbfounded when he saw Xu Ran's current appearance!
He originally thought it was just an ordinary nine-story tower trial.

Over the course of these long years, I have experienced countless trials, each of which was hastily concluded and failed to meet expectations.

I originally thought that this trial would be just like the previous ones, nothing special.

result.

This child, who is not even two years old, has brought him so many miracles and shocks!

Even he, the senior disciple who had read through the entire Nine-Story Tower of Books, was utterly shocked!
"This world, this Origin Realm, this generation, belongs to Xu Ran!"

at the same time.

Above the arena.

The bald man, who had been sitting cross-legged on the ground, stood up with lightning speed the moment the ripples appeared on the arena.

"You little rascal, you're really good, very good indeed!"

At this moment, the way he looked at Xu Ran was extremely fervent.

Looking at Xu Ran was like looking at a rough gem that had not yet fully formed, full of infinite possibilities.

"Haha!" The bald man laughed again. "This damned Heavenly Dao, I thought it was just fooling me, saying that a perfect successor would appear and that I would be a gatekeeper in this broken tower."

"And it turns out, it really does exist!"

The bald man's hoarse and unrestrained voice echoed through the arena.

"Heavenly Dao, you did a really good job! I acknowledge you!"

Say it.

"锃——"

A sharp sound rang out, and the ghost-head knife that had been resting on the bald man's lap was now drawn from its sheath.

The two characters 'Slaying Ghosts' engraved on the back of the blade emitted a red light, making the red net of light attacking Xu Ran even more vivid and eerie!
With the addition of this red light, the already sharp red light became even more intense!

Seeing this, Xu Ran's eyes narrowed, and he roared, "Slash!"

Suddenly.

His aura transformed into blade light, shooting forward relentlessly.

"Rumble--"

The next moment.

Xu Ran's 'Triple Wave Slash' collided violently with the crimson light of dozens of figures.

All of a sudden.

Two colors, blue and red, erupted in the arena.

At first, these two colors were evenly matched.

However, the moment they touched it, the blue light, like a big fish eating a small fish, quickly devoured the red light.

The entire arena was bathed in blue light.

Everybody knows.
