Devouring Evil Martial Arts, Eliminating Demons from All Heavens

Chapter 330 Live Fish with Long Knife, for Wan's Hospitality

Wow! !

The wolf-headed swordsman emerged from the jungle, surrounded by the aura of swords, with broken branches falling and leaves scattering behind him.

The big-headed monster, covered in fallen leaves, followed closely behind as he walked out.

The more tonics he took over the past few days, the more he felt that his muscles and bones were contracting, his eyes were sunken, his pupils were red, and his body had become much thinner.

After emerging from the jungle, the sight of the water reflecting on his face intensified the thirst in the big-headed monster.

But he didn't want to drink water, he only wanted to drink blood.

He was a hybrid species created in a laboratory through forced combination, and his genes inherently contained the defect of a short lifespan.

After experiencing being refined into a magical corpse and then being taught and nourished by the wolf-headed swordsman, the part of his bloodline belonging to the spirit world has been greatly enhanced.

But half of his bloodline, the very foundation of his life, belongs to humanity.

To compensate for the imbalance between the two, the first thing the big-headed monster could think of was to drink human blood.

It cannot be the blood of ordinary people; it must be the blood of those who have cultivated to a high level and can be compared to special species in the spirit world.

At least Chu Yannian...

If it were someone like Zhang Tao, it would be an unparalleled delicacy.

Just as the big-headed monster was having many thoughts due to thirst.

The wolf-headed swordsman had already led him closer to the vast expanse of shimmering water.

Ahead lies a vast, emerald-green river, its waters meandering eastward.

On the opposite bank of the river is a cliff that appears to be about two hundred meters high, extending to the east and west, its length unknown.

This river is like the dividing line between the jungle and the cliffs, and its color is as green as jade when viewed from afar.

The closer you get, the more you can see it.

The river water is actually very clear; you can almost see the small plants at the bottom, which are more than ten meters deep.

"Ha! I could smell it from afar. As summer approaches, these fish are indeed swimming upstream."

As the wolf-headed swordsman spoke, he reached out and grabbed from a distance.

With a splash, he grabbed a large fish and lifted it into the air.

This fish is over four feet long, with a flat body, somewhat like a ribbonfish, but completely transparent.

When it swims in the water, no one can tell that there is any difference between the fish and the water.

Only when it is removed from the river can you tell that it is a living creature.

"then."

The wolf-headed swordsman tossed the fish into the big-headed monster's hand, and before the monster could even take a bite, he said, "This isn't for you to eat."

"I came here specifically to find this fish so that it could be used as your knife."

The wolf-headed swordsman emphasized, "A living sword!"

The big-headed monster held the fish with both hands, feeling its cool, smooth texture.

Within the thin, flat body of this transparent fish lies an extraordinary vitality.

The violent twisting caused his hands to tremble slightly.

"Using a live fish as a knife?"

The big-headed man was a little confused. "Use this to kill Zhang Tao?"

"Let alone Zhang Tao, even Chu Tianshu... no, even Chu Yannian wouldn't be afraid of this, right?"

The big-headed monster looked down at the ground.

His shadow on the ground detached from his heels and took two steps forward.

But the shadow had nothing in its hands.

"Moreover, I have no way to make the fish's shadow move with my shadow."

The wolf-headed swordsman scoffed, "How come you used to always carry a sword with you?"

The big-headed monster said, "My old knife was made primarily from one of my ribs, which was ground into powder and then reshaped."

"Then why don't you treat this fish as your rib?"

The wolf-headed swordsman patiently instructed the man in a tone as if he were speaking to a piece of wood.

"Even if this fish is alive, its intelligence is weak and its soul is small. How different is it from your old rib blade, which was just an inanimate object?"

"You consider that knife to be a part of you because it was once part of your bone, but can't you have the same perception for other knives?"

The wolf-headed swordsman raised his sword, his arm outstretched, then loosened his fingers.

The knife did not fall to the ground, but moved forward following the wolf's gaze.

The wolf's gaze shifted in a wide arc, and the knife followed suit, turning downwards as well.

As the wolf's gaze returned, the knife retraced its path, tucking the hilt under the wolf's palm.

"A swordsman's sword is an integral part of himself."

"Like one's own flesh and blood, like one's own new fingernails, like an extension of one's own gaze."

"No matter what you hold in your hand, as long as you treat it as a knife, it has become your newly born claws and teeth, your long-lost fourth soul, your eighth spirit!"

Suddenly, the wolf-headed swordsman tapped the big-headed monster on the head with the back of his sword.

A thud.

It was as if the sound of a wooden fish, as large as a bucket, had been struck in an empty box.

The sound filled the void in the box.

"understand?"

The big-headed monster shuddered, as if he had realized something.

"But……"

The big-headed monster asked in bewilderment, "This knife is too soft. It even twists on its own. I have to work hard to control it. Why don't you find something harder to use as a knife?"

The wolf-headed swordsman watched the river flow.

"Because this fish is already a master of knife skills compared to you."

"Only when you hold it can you use it to make it a sword technique; otherwise, it's just blindly hacking around."

Taking into account the big-headed monster's martial arts comprehension, he thought for a moment and decided to explain it more clearly.

"When you drive your shadow, it moves without any hindrance, and the knife in the shadow's hand also moves without any hesitation. If you want to follow the path of the fast knife, it can be said to be the will of heaven, and there is nothing wrong with it."

"However, your skill level is still far behind ours. If you only know how to use a fast knife, your knife technique will appear too simple and straightforward."

"Therefore, when you use the power of the Dharma, you are not only borrowing its power, but also its laws."

The wolf-headed monster pointed at the flowing water.

"The Dharma form of Jinling No. 7 is the change of gravity, which is like flowing water."

"The transparent fish is the most adept at swimming against the current. Even when living within the influence of the Dharma, it is not as obviously affected as other creatures and still plays freely." "It is a match made in heaven for you."

The big-headed monster remained silent for a while.

The wolf-headed swordsman sighed, "Just ask me what you have to say!"

"why?"

The big-headed monster spoke honestly.

"Why is gravity described as flowing water? The gravity here fluctuates, jumping up and down, with obvious turning points."

"It should be more like a basketball that keeps bouncing, right?"

In the jungle six miles away.

A gentle breeze whispers past my ears, casting dappled shadows on the trees.

The air that fills the human nasal cavity is all fresh and clean.

If an ordinary person were to walk from inside Nanjing city to this place, they might even feel a bit intoxicated by the oxygen.

Chu Tianshu reached out and plucked a leaf, smiling as he spoke.

"The data cracked from the computer of the New Energy Association contained detailed data on gravity changes, but no reliable patterns were found."

"But once I actually got here and experienced it for myself, I realized where their mistakes lay."

As Chu Tianshu walked, he said, "Ultimately, they viewed the changes in gravity as relatively isolated nodes."

"In reality, although the interference of gravity with the law is intermittent, the changes in gravity have never stopped."

He held the leaf horizontally in front of him, opened his mouth, raised his chin, and clearly blew a breath towards the top of the leaf.

Above the leaves, the airflow speed increases and the pressure decreases, causing the tips of the leaves to rise accordingly.

Two seconds later, Chu Tianshu blew a breath under the leaf, and the leaf fell down.

No further words are needed.

Zhang Tao immediately understood.

If we consider the interference of ghosts and gods as two breaths.

There was indeed a gap between the two breaths.

However, after the first intervention, the leaves have already undergone subtle changes in their condition and will continue to be affected by the natural environment.

The influence of the natural environment on it is, of course, subtly different from its state before it was interfered with.

Therefore, the leaves during the dry season are still "unnatural" leaves.

From the first node to the second node, every moment in between is filled with subtle, “unnatural” changes.

The New Energy Association failed to include these data in its observations, essentially playing a numbers game by omitting large chunks of data, thus failing to identify any patterns.

Therefore, it is not advisable to try to counteract the effects of gravity by controlling one's own ascent or descent at a specific point in time.

"Trying to counteract it with your internal energy is just a waste of effort and will only make your condition worse."

Chu Tianshu said, "The only way is to visualize this entire No. 7 landform environment as a vast ocean that stretches to the sky."

"By using your most versatile intuition, choosing the most appropriate moves, and going with the flow, you can unleash your full potential in such a place."

Zhang Tao was also moving forward; the two of them moved so fast that their figures seemed to leave afterimages.

He casually pointed with his iron whip, and four large golden characters appeared on a tree a hundred meters away.

I'm not suitable.

"Yes, your style is different, and you don't have as many complicated, ready-made moves to choose from."

"Relying solely on improvisation and improvisation will require extra effort, so it's impossible to adapt to this environment in a short period of time."

Chu Tianshu smiled and said, "It's alright. My style has always been the kind that involves a lot of moves."

After studying the Shaolin boxing manual and comprehending the essence of Vajra Samadhi, he used this Zen philosophy to thoroughly study many martial arts techniques of the Southern Shaolin School.

The Heavenly Heart Sorrowful Demon Slash is an absurdly complex sword technique that focuses specifically on specific moves.

So, how about tracking them?

"This isn't about tricks, but rather, it's a gift from history."

Chu Tianshu blinked, and the world he saw was a kaleidoscope of colors in varying shades.

A thin line traced out into the distance.

Even if he breaks through to the forbidden level, he can only mainly collect and refine the essence of heaven and earth with the water attribute.

However, the Nan Hua Yuan Dian allowed him to see five kinds of Dao power and primordial energy from the very beginning, and with his current level of cultivation, what he sees is even more detailed.

The traces of the wolf-headed swordsman's movement as he unleashed powerful techniques.

In Chu Tianshu's eyes, it was far too obvious.

On the edge of the riverbank, the big-headed monster stood motionless.

The resentment and murderous intent in those sunken eyes almost burst forth.

His shadow did indeed detach from his body and move, taking three steps.

In the shadow's hand, there was a very faint, writhing long shadow.

The humanoid silhouette was fairly clear, but the blade shadow was so transparent that it was difficult to discern.

"hehe!"

The wolf-headed swordsman finally smiled with satisfaction.

"You don't need to breathe now, so there's an excellent way to hide."

He kicked the big-headed monster's body into the water, and it sped downstream with the rapid current.

Deep in the jungle, a faint glimmer of lightning could be seen.

The wolf-headed swordsman looked up and saw the ball of light rapidly approaching from the left front.

"Dumb guy, I told you if you keep chasing me, you'll be ganged up on. How can you be so fearless?"

Wolf Head grinned, and the shadow on the ground rushed forward to meet it.

choke! !

The black broadsword trembled, and the wolf-headed swordsman took a step forward, then suddenly stopped, his pupils shifting to the right.

The jungle to the right, with more than a dozen large trees, suddenly shook violently.

Thousands upon thousands of dark green leaves, like a whirlwind and rain, vanished in an instant.

The edges of the leaves gleamed with a luster harder than steel, and they even managed to cut some tiny dust particles floating in the air in half.

The air in the mountains became even more open and expansive.

Thousands of emerald green blades seemed to squeeze through the air, instantly reaching the wolf-headed swordsman.
