While deducing in his head, Zong Shou stepped forwards once more. His entire body didn't retreat but instead advanced, facing the intense flame energy and fiercely thrusting his sword forward.
When the sword was halfway through, a spiral sword energy formed from the entanglement of fire and water suddenly shot out from the sword.
The sword light shone, easily piercing through the wind and directly stabbing towards that person's throat.
Xiong Kui's eyes squinted, instinctively wanting to slap the sword away. However, just as he waved his hand, his eyes constricted, filled with shock.
It was just a simple sword stabbing over, at most it would have a negligible amplitude. However, at this moment, he only felt that no matter how he tried to block, he was unable to prevent the sword from stabbing into his throat.
Pretty much instinctively, Xiong Kui's body explosively retreated, his right hand still slashing out with a palm knife. Numerous silver-white flames spat out, turning into a several-foot long flame whip, slashing towards Zong Shou's waist.
"So that's the case, this is your flaming bear race's emperor flame spiritual art. As expected, it is extraordinary!"
Zong Shou's eyes lit up, the sword in his hand still stabbing and shaking, viciously slapping onto Xiong Kui's chin. Then, he casually slashed to the side, smashing that flame whip into pieces. There weren't any sparks on his body as he pointed at Xiong Kui, smiling warmly, "You finally took out some true ability. However, to capture me and escape, it is far from enough. "
Xiong Kui's expression was extremely ugly. He gritted his teeth, causing blood to seep out from his gums. There was also an exploding spiral energy that charged into his chin. Fire and water swirled around, and he needed to go all out to get rid of it.
At this moment, no matter how dumb he was, he knew that Zong Shou was baiting him to attack.
This Zong Shou was not only strong as he thought, but his sword path was one with the spirit!
If Zong Shou wanted to kill him, then the two swords just now could have taken his life.
At this moment, he had an urge to curse.
If this Gantian Mountain prince was really trash like the rumors said. Then what was the relationship between him and Feng Yu? Dregs?
He should have known that if someone like Zong Yuan was willing to serve him, how could he really be a cripple?
Zong Shou's eyes were still half-closed as he continued to sense the changes in his opponent's aura. Gradually, a hint of joy appeared in his eyes.
He had a basic understanding of the principles behind the Imperial Flame Spirit Art. Of course, there were still many things that he didn't know. However, with his martial arts experience, it was enough to complete this puzzle.
Just as he was thinking that since this person wasn't going to make a move, he might as well get rid of him once and for all.
Xiong Kui roared once again and pounced like a tiger. His entire body was like a giant wall, pressing down horizontally. The viciousness in his eyes was almost tangible.
Before this, he had used all his strength to suppress his aura so as not to alarm the people outside the tent. At this moment, he didn't care at all. This palm grabbed out, causing the temperature in the tent to rise by several times, and energy spread all around! The carpet and curtains started to spontaneously combust.
The first one to feel that something wasn't right was Zong Gang who was standing outside the tent like a javelin.
He was arranged by Zong Shou to guard outside the tent. Zong Yuan, that brat, could instead follow the prince in. Zong Gang's brows were tightly furrowed, his heart filled with jealousy and unhappiness.
At this moment, when he heard the tiger roar from within the tent, he charged in right away.
When the situation in the distance jumped into his field of vision, Zong Gang's eyes turned red, instinctively pouncing forwards.
However, just as his body moved, an intense spear energy stabbed over from the side. It blocked off his forward momentum.
"Zong Yuan, it's you! As expected, you have the ambition of a wolf! "
All of a sudden, Zong Gang felt his heart clench. That's right, with Zong Yuan's personality, how would he be willing to serve the prince?
If Zong Shou died in the hands of Xiong Kui, then this fellow naturally wouldn't be restricted by the blood oath.
However, he felt that it wasn't right. Zong Yuan's spear energy was just to block and didn't have any killing intent. Moreover, using such a method, even if he could break free from the blood oath, he would suffer huge losses.
Before he had time to think, Zong Gang pulled out his knife. He slashed apart the spear image that stabbed over.
However, at this moment, he heard a crisp "pa" sound.
Zong Gang's body instantly froze.
… Oh my god, what did he see? Xiong Kui who went all out to pounce towards Zong Shou was hit by a bright sword on his face. His entire person was smacked back dozens of feet.
The owner of the long sword was Zong Shou who was supposed to be in danger.
Originally, he didn't believe it, but a moment later, Xiong Kui had already pounced over.
His aura was really fierce, his entire person was like a giant bear burning with silver-white flames. Those hands seemed like they could rip apart everything.
However, just as he arrived in front of Zong Shou, he was cleanly slashed away by Zong Shou's sword.
At this moment, the situation of the 2 people in front of him was totally flipped in Zong Gang's heart.
Xiong Kui who should have been like a giant bear fighting a rabbit had become a rabbit baring its fangs and brandishing its claws but didn't pose any threat at all. As for Zong Shou who should have no strength to fight back and should have closed his eyes and waited for death, he was now a lion teasing and playing with a red-eyed rabbit.
Only after a short while did Zong Gang come back to his senses. Then, he hollered out, "Everyone back off! Within 3 breaths, all back off 5 thousand feet! Whoever dares to peek, whoever dares to use their spiritual sense to probe, I will take their heads. "
Outside of the tent, the black fox cavalry who were originally following behind exchanged glances with one another. Although they found it weird, they still followed Zong Gang's words, turning their backs and backing off 5 thousand feet.
At this moment, Zong Gang took in a deep breath, "Young master knows martial arts? If I didn't see wrongly, young master he … "
Looking forward, Zong Gang's eyes shone, not daring to be sure, "His sword path is one with the spirit?"
"The prince's sword path is indeed a hundred times better than ours!"
Zong Yuan nodded slightly and then said expressionlessly, "However, the prince mainly cultivates in spiritual cultivation and is now a night wandering spirit master."
Zong Gang's heart constricted once more. However, this stab was different from the fear before. It brought about unspeakable joy.
When he heard the words night wandering spirit master, he instinctively didn't believe it. However, he noticed that each step Zong Shou took was borrowing the spiritual energy around. This was why he didn't fear the white flames. His body was buffed by several spells and he also had several spiritual artifacts of high grades. To be able to go head to head with Xiong Kui and not be at a disadvantage.
His eyes opened wide as he looked at the side at Ruoshui who was quietly kneeling like an invisible person.
Just as his eyes showed a questioning intent, he saw Ruoshui look over, her eyes extremely pure, "I said that young master is strong, don't worry."
Zong Gang was instantly speechless. Those few simple sentences counted as speaking to him?
On the side of Zong Shou, he slashed Xiong Kui a few times. He seemed to feel impatient, shaking his head non-stop.
"What a waste! Your cultivation has only reached the 6-meridian martial ancestor realm. This emperor flame spiritual art is far from perfect. Zong Yuan, pass me your spear! "
Zong Yuan didn't hesitate to toss the purple lightning spear in his hand far away. Zong Shou caught it in his hand and took a look. He saw that the energy gathering pearl on the spear was still there but the spiritual formation on it was nowhere to be seen.
Zong Shou didn't care, holding the end of the spear and pointing it straight ahead.
"Although you have comprehended that maniac lightning spear sense well, you can only borrow strength to form it and not grasp the foundations. Today, I will use it once more, look carefully! "
When he said that, the purple spear was surrounded by an eye-catching purple light. Numerous lightning snakes formed in the air, gathering at the tip of the spear from all directions.
Zong Yuan was startled, his eyes instantly filled with joy as he looked carefully. As for Xiong Kui, he had a totally different feeling.
He only felt that the lightning glow that Zong Shou gathered was less than a tenth of the maniac lightning spear sense that Zong Yuan used before.
However, it was more condensed, completely absorbed into his body and the spear blade. The aura he gave off was even more dangerous!
In the next instance, he saw the spear tip shake slightly. Following which the entire sky was filled with purple spear afterimages. In that instance, who knows how many times it stabbed out. He only knew that it was like many lethal spear shadows crazily piercing over.
Xiong Kui hollered out, not daring to take it head on, using all his strength to explosively retreat.
The purple spear blade in front of his eyes suddenly appeared and disappeared, suddenly real and suddenly illusionary, covering the sky and covering the sun. His arms waved about unpredictably, trying to block. However, he was unable to come into contact with the spear body.
He only felt that his body was pierced by the purple spear shadow, spear after spear. Who knows how many holes were pierced on his body.
When the sky full of blade glows finally retracted, Zong Shou was still standing a hundred feet away. He was frowning like he was thinking about something.
Xiong Kui suddenly lost all his strength, kneeling on the ground powerlessly. Lowering his head to look at his body, there were hundreds of bloody holes.
Luckily, this Zong Shou seemed to have held back some strength and showed mercy. The wounds weren't deep and didn't truly hurt his vital organs.
Even then, these hundreds of wounds left him on the verge of death.
Zong Yuan's eyes were filled with a bright glow. However, he wasn't focused, like he was fully focused on recalling and thinking. The image of the spear striking out like a flood was enough for him to remember for the rest of his life!
This was the true maniac lightning spear sense!
Zong Gang was silent, looking at Zong Shou like he didn't know him.
Just now, even he couldn't count how many spears Zong Shou had shot out.
If he didn't know that the person in front of him was the bloodline of the ruler, and that his soul was extremely pure, without any signs of harmony, he wouldn't have thought that the spear in front of him was the ruler's bloodline. He pretty much thought that Lin Fan was impersonating him or taking over his body.
Zong Shou was confused for a moment before he came back to his senses. He casually tossed the spear in his hand back to Zong Yuan before entering deep thought once more.
… He had an idea of his own strength. His spear technique shouldn't be so strong. It definitely shouldn't be so strong that Xiong Kui couldn't even block one spear.
Just now, when he struck out with his spear, he felt as if his True Qi and spiritual energy were in perfect harmony at that moment. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
