Chu Tianlu really couldn't be sure. No matter which option he chose, it would be extremely dangerous. It was very difficult for him to not give Chu Wenshang an opportunity to take advantage of, but if he continued to stay in this cave, what would he do when the tide rose?
In reality, this wasn't the most dangerous thing. From the moment Chu Tianlu jumped into the sea, he already knew that today was a disaster.
"Tianlu, continuing this deadlock isn't a solution. Why don't you hurry up and leave?" Chu Wenshang urged.
Chu Tianlu hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded. "I'll go out first. You guys stay sixty feet away from me. If you take a step closer, I'll kill him."
"Okay." Chu Wenshang agreed, but before he finished speaking, the expert at the peak of the late Foundation Establishment Realm on the other side suddenly launched an attack. His figure turned into a black shadow and pounced towards Chu Tianlu. He was immediately shocked. "Xingping! You're crazy! "
This person was called Chu Xingping. His strength could be considered outstanding among the younger generation of the Chu family. However, he was different from Chu Tianlu and Chu Tianliang. He wasn't a descendant of the ancestral family, so no matter how strong his strength was, it was useless. He was destined to only serve as a foil to the two. In the past, he was rarely noticed by others, and had always appeared in front of everyone as Chu Tianliang's attendant.
Not only Chu Wenshang, but Chu Tianlu was also shocked. From such a distance, even an expert of the early Gold Core stage like Chu Wenshang couldn't succeed in a sneak attack, let alone a peak late Foundation Establishment Realm expert. What was this guy thinking? Wasn't he too impulsive?
"Chu Xingping! You want to f * cking kill me! " Chu Tianliang roared in anger. Although he wished he could hack Chu Tianlu, who was behind him, into a thousand pieces, that had to be after he escaped danger. Chu Xingping doing this, wasn't that forcing Chu Tianlu to kill him?!
"I'm saving you!" Chu Xingping also roared. His expression seemed sincere, but only he himself knew exactly what he was thinking in his heart.
As he spoke, a long and narrow shadow that was faintly discernible shot out from an extremely hidden angle, noiselessly and rapidly sweeping towards Chu Tianlu's feet. The tip of the shadow shone with cold light. It was shockingly a materialized sharp blade. It was one of the Chu Family's signature martial techniques, Shadow Blade!
Chu Tianlu's eyelids twitched violently. Only Chu Xingping wasn't scary, but since Chu Xingping had moved, then Chu Wenshang couldn't possibly watch coldly from the sidelines. He would definitely wait for an opportunity to move. Facing the joint attack of a peak late Foundation Establishment expert and an initial Aurous Core expert at the same time, even if he held Chu Tianliang as a hostage, he still didn't have the slightest possibility of escaping unscathed.
Dang! A crisp sound of metal colliding rang out. The short blade in Chu Tianlu's hand accurately blocked the other party's shadow blade. The tremendous force of impact was enough to collapse a thick wall.
An opportunity! Seeing this, Chu Tianliang was overjoyed. He thought that Chu Tianlu would definitely deal a killing blow at the first moment. He didn't expect that Chu Tianlu would actually choose to block the shadow blade, and even use the blade that posed the greatest threat to him. It was simply extremely stupid.
One had to know that the impact of the shadow blade was the strongest among all of the Chu Family's shadow martial techniques. Even if Chu Tianlu's strength was a bit higher than Chu Xingping's, he still wasn't a Aurous Core expert. After blocking the shadow blade, he would inevitably be forced back. This was the best opportunity to escape!
Chu Tianliang's eyes shone, and he gathered all his strength. He decided that as long as Chu Tianlu took half a step back, he would immediately charge forward. Once he successfully escaped, he would definitely make him die a tragic death!
However, unexpectedly, after Chu Tianlu blocked the shadow blade, he didn't move in the slightest. Not only did he not take half a step back, he instead placed the short blade on Chu Tianlu's neck the moment the block ended. Chu Tianliang was so frightened that his hair stood on end, and he was indescribably shocked.
"How is this possible?" Chu Tianliang was simply incredulous. Only when he glanced at the abnormally pitch-black shadow at his side out of the corner of his eye did he finally come to a realization. This guy actually specialized in cultivating Unmoving Shadow!
Unmoving Shadow. In the eyes of over ninety percent of the Chu Family's disciples, this was an out-and-out useless move. It wasn't a bodily martial technique, and it didn't have any killing effect. Its only use was as the name implied. As long as the shadow didn't move, the person wouldn't move.
For the absolute majority of people, this kind of move might not be used in their entire lives, so they naturally wouldn't spend the effort to specifically cultivate it. Rather than wasting time on this, it would be better to properly polish moves like the shadow blade and shadow step. Those were the ultimate moves that would produce immediate results.
Looking at the entire middle island Chu Family, the number of people who specialized in cultivating Unmoving Shadow probably didn't exceed three. He never expected that Chu Tianlu would actually be one of them.
Chu Tianliang immediately had a bellyful of profanities, but unfortunately, he could only forcefully hold them back. Chu Tianliang was the meat on the chopping block, and the situation was already very tense. If he took the initiative to provoke Chu Tianlu at this time, he might really lose his little life.
Relying on Unmoving Shadow, Chu Tianlu successfully blocked the shadow blade. As long as he controlled Chu Tianliang, he would be in an invincible position. However, without waiting for him to feel happy, Chu Wenshang's attack had already arrived.
At the same time as a vague shadow rapidly approached Chu Tianlu, it unceasingly split into countless strands. Like countless strange tentacles, they enveloped him layer by layer from all directions. It was just like a thousand-layered cage that had risen from the ground.
Chu Tianlu's heart tightened. This was a profound martial technique that only experts at or above the Golden Core stage could cultivate, Shadow Bind.
He could block the shadow blade, but how could he block the Shadow Bind?
Killing intent flashed in his eyes, and Chu Tianlu's dagger was about to pierce Chu Tianliang's throat. He knew that he couldn't escape the Shadow Bind. At this time, he could only break the jar.
Unfortunately, in the end, it was still too late. Chu Wenshang was, after all, an early Golden Core stage expert. His control over shadow martial techniques was much higher than Chu Tianlu's. Even though Chu Xingping's sneak attack just now was very sudden, Chu Tianlu's response could be said to be perfect, and Chu Tianlu's follow-up attack was also somewhat hurried. However, in the end, Chu Tianlu still seized the opportunity.
At the last instant before the dagger entered Chu Tianliang's throat, the dagger was forcibly covered by the shadow tentacles. No matter how much strength Chu Tianlu exerted, he couldn't pierce the dagger any deeper.
Chu Tianliang escaped from death. At this time, Chu Xingping, who had just used the shadow blade, had already rushed over. Looking at his posture, he was prepared to take advantage of the moment when Chu Tianlu was controlled by the Shadow Bind to send him on his way.
As long as he got rid of Chu Tianlu, he could get a share of a hundred spirit jades. Although this price was only one-tenth of Chu Wenshang's, for a collateral descendant like Chu Xingping, it was already a huge sum of money. For this, he naturally disregarded his own safety.
At this time, Chu Tianlu was already heavily bound by the Shadow Bind, unable to move. This was a ready-made head. If he didn't kill him now, then when?
