Playing with fantasy beasts in the martial arts world

Chapter 169 The Second Wuxia World Stronghold

What kind of person is Zhu Meng?

He was the kind of traditional hero of the martial arts world, loyal and righteous, valuing promises over life and death. In his heart, loyalty and righteousness always outweighed money and power. He would go to great lengths for his friends and even shed blood in the martial arts world.

Once he agrees to something, he will do it no matter what, even if it means facing a thousand cuts or a sea of ​​fire.

However, why can't Cha Nan empathize with Lu Xiaofeng?
Because Cha Nan is not a traditional江湖人 (jianghu person). Even though he is already in the jianghu, his mindset is still that of a modern person. He has a moral bottom line, but not many behavioral constraints. While pursuing the benefit of others, he never forgets to benefit himself.

"Since he is already dead, let's not let anyone use his body anymore. Let's say goodbye to him properly!" Cha Nan said to Lu Xiaofeng, gathering his strength in his palm.

Even Liang Xiao found him difficult to deal with; such a guy definitely couldn't be allowed to continue existing.

Lu Xiaofeng tightened his grip on his sword, stepped forward, and said with his back to Cha Nan, "Let me see him off!"

"A hero like Master Zhu deserves a dignified end, even in the end."

As he spoke, he forcefully gathered his inner energy, and the sharp sword energy was already swirling around Lu Xiaofeng's body. At this moment, it seemed even more fierce and domineering than before.

Clearly, Lu Xiaofeng is squeezing his meridians dry, and he's planning to fight to the death.

Cha Nan didn't understand why someone would sacrifice their own life just to give a dignified exit to someone they weren't really that familiar with, but it seemed like he was seeing a glimpse of the martial arts world that had once captivated him.

Sometimes, excessive ambition has driven us further away from our ideal world.

A dazzling white light shot into the sky, and above the firmament, it seemed as if white clouds were floating around, and within the clouds, there appeared to be immortals with their eyes lowered.

Then a sword light fell on the beach and the sea, reflecting the seamless blend of the sea and sky.

Lu Xiaofeng said he had only mastered about 70% of the Heavenly Flying Immortal technique, but with this one sword, even if the Lord of White Cloud City himself came, he wouldn't dare say he was better.

Suddenly, white clouds transformed into sword energy, slashing directly at the twelve young men.

As the sword flashed, the entire noisy and chaotic battlefield fell silent.

Liu Sheng Yijian abandoned his opponent, the "God of Wealth," and quickly headed towards Lu Xiaofeng, Cha Nan, and the others, his face filled with fervor.

As a true martial arts fanatic, he had only one thought at this moment: either defeat this godlike sword strike or die by it.

As the white light gradually faded, Lu Xiaofeng landed slowly, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, and the long sword in his hand shattered into pieces, clearly unable to withstand such a fierce sword aura.

The corpse puppet formed from Zhu Meng's body shattered into dust and dissipated on the beach.

Pfft...!

Lu Xiaofeng coughed up another mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground, completely exhausted.

Cha Nan stepped forward to help him up, and Lu Xiaofeng said embarrassedly, "Brother Cha... I'm afraid I... I'm afraid I can't..."

"Go ahead and don't worry!"

"I will take good care of Lady Lian." Cha Nan reached out to wipe Lu Xiaofeng's eyelids.

Lu Xiaofeng slapped his hand away: "I don't need you to take care of me, I can do it myself. I mean... I've lost all my power now, and I'm afraid I'll be powerless to help you. I'll have to trouble you to take care of me!"

Cha Nan threw Lu Xiaofeng onto the beach and casually tossed out a bottle of medicine.

"Take your medicine, stop pretending to be dead... Want to rest? Not so easy!" Cha Nan said.

Cha Nan's statement was not unfounded, because as the waves surged, more corpse puppets emerged from the seabed.

They included men and women, young and old, and perhaps none of them could compare to Zhu Meng's strength, but none of them were below the top level in the martial arts world during their lifetimes.

These undead creatures leaped onto the decks of the warships in battle and began indiscriminate slaughter.

Whether it was the pirates from Tenno Island or the Japanese pirates brought by Ishida Saien, they all died in droves under the cold blades of these corpse puppets.

Liu Sheng Yijian watched quietly, guarding Lu Xiaofeng with even more focus than Cha Nan, clearly keeping an eye on him.

He would not allow Lu Xiaofeng to die a violent death before Lu Xiaofeng challenged him to a duel. "As expected, it's not that simple!"

Amidst Cha Nan's sighs, Ishida Saien's fleet began to cut its losses and seek survival. They abandoned some of their ships and crew, and the remaining warships that were not trapped in the melee began to retreat, fleeing at top speed into the deep blue sea. It could be said that the more triumphant they were when they came, the more pathetic they were when they left.

As Ishida Saien's fleet gradually withdrew, the shark boys left in the sea were all killed by the corpse puppets. A large number of corpse puppets surrounded Cha Nan and the others.

Seeing so many corpse puppets, Cha Nan was already considering retreating.

Liang Xiao and the others can return to their ranks first, and Lu Xiaofeng can reluctantly ride alongside him.

As for Yagyu Ittsuken... well, I wish him good luck.

There's also Lian Ni Chang; you can find her. Yun Hai Lu is very strong; carrying a woman weighing less than 100 pounds shouldn't be a problem.

Cha Nan was calculating the weight of the Cloud Deer and the space on its back when suddenly a black ship with its sails fully unfurled crashed into the beach at full speed.

When it crashed ashore, many of the corpse puppets were smashed to pieces on the bow of the ship.

Unfortunately, once on land, the ship could not travel far for long. After gliding for several dozen meters, the strange black ship got stuck in the sand and could no longer move forward.

Lian Ni Chang stood at the bow of the boat, holding a torch, and threw the torch onto the boat.

The strange black ship, which had been doused with kerosene, was now ablaze.

The rolling heatwave kept the corpse puppets at bay.

"Come quickly, these things are afraid of fire!" Lian Ni Chang shouted from the burning bow of the ship.

The group immediately fought their way through and approached the burning monster ship.

"It's over, we really have to start over now!" Cha Nan sighed.

Why did you set the boat on fire?

"If we keep the boat, we can still escape. How can we escape now?"

Lian Ni Chang said nonchalantly, "There are still many ships at sea!"

"Take another look!" Cha Nan reminded her.

Lian Ni Chang turned her head and saw that the warships floating on the sea were either slowly sinking or covered with corpse puppets, densely packed... It made people's scalps tingle.

"Do you still have that kind of weird shark?"

"If we could ride them to escape this island first..." Lian Ni Chang's face was flushed in the firelight, whether from shame or simply from heat, it was hard to tell.

She thought it was the arrival of a hero, but she didn't expect it to be cutting off her own escape route.

"Yes, we do have some, but there's no time to tame them now!"

"Unless...!" Cha Nan was about to sign two more equal contracts when she suddenly felt a jolt in her heart.

They inexplicably took out the materials to make the Palu terminal and then started making it on the beach.

A few breaths later, the Palu terminal was completed, and Cha Nan had actually established his second stronghold in the martial arts world on this Tianwang Island.

"What's the principle behind this? What's the reason behind it?" Cha Nan was puzzled, but that didn't stop him from taking action.

The Palu Terminal consumes Palu Ore Fragments to quickly level up, while simultaneously traveling between the Mythical Beast World and the Martial Arts World to transport Mythical Beasts... mainly Shark Boy and Flame Fox.

Shark Boy excels in water combat and can unleash his skills in the sea to launch overwhelming attacks on enemies.

The fire-based skills unleashed by the Flame Witch Fox are extremely effective against the Frost Corpse Puppets.

With the appearance and participation of the phantom beasts, the originally encircling army of corpse puppets began to collapse and be destroyed in large numbers.
