The Secret to Picking Up Girls

He felt an invisible force surge towards him from all directions, locking him in place.

Zhang Yuze's expression changed slightly, and he thought to himself, "Such powerful killing intent."

One must know that Zhang Yuze is now a martial artist in the late stage of the eighth level. However, this killing intent was able to lock down his entire body, so one could imagine the strength of this person. In Zhang Yuze's opinion, even a ninth-level martial artist would not be able to exert such pressure on him.

Could this person be a Heavenly Realm expert? Zhang Yuze's heart trembled slightly.

He didn't dare to be negligent in the slightest. He flew out of the room.

Although this person exerted such great pressure on him, Zhang Yuze had no intention of retreating. Since the other party was able to find him here, he had no way out. He might as well go all out.

Although the aura felt like it was emanating from his surroundings, Zhang Yuze still didn't see the person after flying a distance. This made Zhang Yuze's heart secretly palpitate, feeling that this person's strength seemed unprecedentedly vast, otherwise it wouldn't be like this.

This was a valley, a flat open space, with lush vegetation on the sides.

Although it was in the darkness, Zhang Yuze could still see an old man holding a knife and wearing a samurai outfit standing there. Although the whole person was integrated into the darkness, Zhang Yuze could see him at a glance.

With a "Da!" sound, Zhang Yuze landed on the ground from the air.

Seemingly sensing Zhang Yuze's appearance, the old man's originally closed eyes suddenly opened. A sharp light burst out from his eyes, looking at Zhang Yuze in front of him. He said faintly, "You've come?"

"Takahashi Ichiken?" Finally seeing the old man in front of him clearly, Zhang Yuze's heart couldn't help but feel a burst of fear.

The true essence within Zhang Yuze's body rapidly circulated, and his whole body was strongly on guard. He finally knew what Takahashi Nakasato meant by telling him to be careful.

"Are you looking for me?" Zhang Yuze narrowed his eyes and asked, looking at Takahashi Ichiken in front of him.

"To kill you..." Takahashi Ichiken uttered two words coldly, seemingly sparing with words.

After Takahashi Ichiken finished saying this, Zhang Yuze felt an overwhelming killing intent surge towards him. His heart tightened, knowing that if he faced this powerful super BOSS, he would have no chance of winning. He quickly waved his hand at Takahashi Ichiken in front of him and said, "Senior, aren't you afraid of being laughed at by the martial arts world for bullying the weak like this?"

Hearing Zhang Yuze's words, the killing intent on Takahashi Ichiken's body weakened a lot. He looked at Zhang Yuze and said indifferently, "As long as you can take three of my strikes, I will let you go today."

"Three strikes?" Zhang Yuze's heart chilled. He recalled the battle at White Cliff Mountain. Even experts like the Dragon King and Tianjue had no desire to fight when facing Takahashi Ichiken. The chances of him taking three strikes from the other party were probably not very high.

However, Zhang Yuze could see from the killing intent on Takahashi Ichiken's body that the other party probably really intended to kill him. Three strikes it is then. Recently, Zhang Yuze's strength had greatly increased, and his confidence had indeed swelled a lot. He didn't believe that he really couldn't even take three strikes from the other party.

Zhang Yuze frowned and stared at Takahashi Ichiken in front of him, saying, "Senior, three strikes it is, but how do I know that Senior will really keep his promise!"

Of course, Zhang Yuze also knew that martial artists of Takahashi Ichiken's level generally wouldn't go back on their word. But now that his life was at stake, he still had to make the other party affirm their attitude.

"Hmph, who in the world dares to doubt the words of Takahashi Ichiken..." Takahashi Ichiken said coldly to Zhang Yuze.

"Alright, then I'll take your three strikes, and I hope Senior will abide by his promise." Zhang Yuze's expression was extremely solemn.

Now Zhang Yuze didn't dare to be negligent in the slightest, and he quickly took out his "Demon Slayer Blade". Facing Takahashi Ichiken, a Heavenly Realm expert, he absolutely didn't dare to be negligent in the slightest, even if it was just taking three strikes from the other party.

Takahashi Ichiken didn't speak. Although his expression was very calm, standing there motionless, a chilling aura had already emanated from his body.

The fallen leaves scattered around Takahashi Ichiken didn't know what force they were being drawn by, and slowly floated into the air, constantly tumbling and rolling.

Zhang Yuze's expression changed slightly, because he felt an extremely terrifying aura had locked onto his body. The suffocating pressure, like heavy mountains, pressed on Zhang Yuze's body. Even the true essence within his body seemed to be moving much slower under the effect of this pressure.

Only the sound of "Clang!" was heard, and the knife in Takahashi Ichiken's hand was unsheathed. Zhang Yuze didn't see how he drew the knife at all, because it was too fast. He only saw a dazzling light burst out in front of him in the darkness. Instantly, it fell towards Zhang Yuze's body.

A dazzling white light of "Shua!" appeared from directly above Zhang Yuze's body.

Feeling the surging airflow, as fierce as a mountain torrent, although it hadn't reached Zhang Yuze yet, he felt his skin tingling faintly, and the violent airflow scraped his body. If he hadn't constantly mobilized the true essence within his body and desperately suppressed it, he would almost be unable to stand. Zhang Yuze narrowed his eyes. The "Demon Slayer Blade" in his hand instantly slashed out, constantly drawing circles in the air.

A faint white light, under the effect of the dagger in Zhang Yuze's hand, formed a rolling halo. The halo appeared so dazzling in the darkness.

With a "Boom!" sound, the knife in Takahashi Ichiken's hand instantly arrived in front of Zhang Yuze.

"Star Shift!"

Zhang Yuze stared intently, and the halo instantly collided with Takahashi Ichiken's knife.

Although Zhang Yuze used the "Star Shift" taught by Boss Liu Yang to dissolve 60% of the opponent's power, the remaining power still allowed Zhang Yuze to take it all head-on.

Zhang Yuze's entire body was like a kite with a broken string, instantly falling backwards.

With a "Bang!" sound, he fell to the ground.

Zhang Yuze landed on one knee on the ground. Fortunately, Takahashi Ichiken didn't immediately attack at this time, but stood there, looking at him coldly. Only, the killing intent shrouding him hadn't weakened, but had become even stronger.

"Ugh..." Zhang Yuze covered his chest and couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

However, Zhang Yuze knew that he couldn't give up even more at this time. Although he could still use the opportunity of summoning the stars once, he gave up at this time. If he didn't experience wind and rain, he would never be able to become stronger. Therefore, this time, even though it was extremely dangerous, he still felt that he had to rely on his own strength to overcome this crisis.

It seemed that Takahashi Ichiken felt a little surprised that Zhang Yuze was able to stand up in such a short period of time. However, the killing intent on his body became even stronger.

The knife in Takahashi Ichiken's hand burst out with boundless blade light.

Originally, Zhang Yuze wanted to use the two ultimate moves, "Blood Sea Reincarnation" and "Heaven and Earth Collapse", taught to him by Boss Liu Yang. However, on second thought, although these two moves were sharp, it was difficult to say whether they could block the opponent. The effect was really limited in front of experts who were several levels higher than him. This was known when facing the Palace Master of the Heavenly Mansion. It couldn't have much effect at all. Moreover, Zhang Yuze also knew that this Takahashi Ichiken had competed with Boss Liu Yang more than twenty years ago. It was really hard to say how much effect these moves would have in front of him.

Feeling the imminent danger, although Zhang Yuze felt as if his whole body was about to fall apart, he still gritted his teeth and persevered.

He put away the "Demon Slayer Blade" and put it into his ring space.

His hands quickly formed several hand seals in the air. The charm energy, demonic energy, and spiritual energy within his body quickly surged.

Three black, blue, and white balls of light emerged in Zhang Yuze's hands.

However, this time, Zhang Yuze was prepared to take the initiative. Anyway, although Takahashi Ichiken wanted him to block his power, he didn't say that he had to stand in place to resist!

"Instantaneous Movement!"

After a white light, Zhang Yuze disappeared from the spot like a ghost.

The next second. Zhang Yuze appeared directly above Takahashi Ichiken.

"Three Elements Strike!"

Because his strike was composed of the combination of demonic energy, charm energy, and spiritual energy, Zhang Yuze named his self-created move the Three Elements Strike. Although it was very common, it was easy to understand.

Zhang Yuze's person floated in the air. Under the surge of the fierce energy on his body. The surrounding sand and rocks flew, and the energy in the air trembled uneasily. The surrounding trees kept shaking.

Takahashi Ichiken frowned, and the Eastern sword in his hand slashed out extremely quickly. It fell towards Zhang Yuze's body.

The sharp blade light burst out with unparalleled fierce energy in the air, although it was still in mid-air, Zhang Yuze could feel a bone-piercing chill.

At the right time, the energy ball in Zhang Yuze's hand, composed of the three elements combined, also flew towards Takahashi Ichiken's body.

With a "Boom!" sound, the energy ball instantly collided with the knife in Takahashi Ichiken's hand in the air.

Zhang Yuze felt the terrible energy fluctuations after the violent collision between the two burst out.

The blade light of the Eastern sword in Takahashi Ichiken's hand dimmed a little after colliding with the energy wave emitted by Zhang Yuze. But it still slashed towards Zhang Yuze's body.

"Illusion Demon Art!"

A ball of white light emerged in Zhang Yuze's hand, and he waved it around.
