The most important thing in a sneak attack was timing. It could not be too early, nor could it be too late, especially when the Ice and Fire Clans were fighting. Timing was even more important, and it had to be at the moment when the outcome of the battle was about to be decided. Not only would it catch the strong off guard, it would also not let the weak have the ability to resist.
Chu Yunsheng had gained some experience in this area. When he attacked the insects in Shen Cheng city, and when he attacked the Gan city, he had learned some ways to hide.
As soon as Chu Yunsheng thought about it, the two figures that were entangled by ice and fire also gradually approached the place where Chu Yunsheng was hiding. The crescent-moon-shaped flames that were shot out by the cloaked man's Raging Flame Saber hit the places that the cloaked man missed and ignited one house after another. The fire almost lit up the entire street.
When they got closer, Chu Yunsheng finally saw clearly that the Ice woman was holding a diamond-shaped spike weapon. It was different from the ice sculptures that he had seen before. It was a real weapon.
The Ice woman waved her hand to attack it. At first, she launched many huge spikes, which gave the cloaked man a heavy blow. Whether it was the speed of the attack or the power of the spikes, they were all better than the Ice race's warrior who had just recovered from the battle in Shu Du city. After the cloaked man of the Fire Race changed his strategy and activated his concealment skill, he frowned slightly and quickly shot out waves of small icicles in all directions, trying to determine the actual location of the cloaked man of the Fire Race.
"Boom!"
The cloaked man of the Fire Tribe changed his position several times to confuse his opponent. Then, he suddenly jumped up and slashed with his saber. The long and narrow saber slashed on the Ice woman's thin layer of icy air. It stirred up a lava-like flame that spread out like waves. The houses on both sides of the room were instantly set ablaze.
The Ice woman gritted her teeth and let out a muffled groan. There was a trace of cold anger in her eyes. Although she had the advantage of the weapon, the gap between her strength and the cloaked man's could not be made up. Even if she had already detected the cloaked man's whereabouts with the ice spikes, she still couldn't keep up with the cloaked man's speed. This was the huge gap between the strength of the Ice race and the Ice race.
Therefore, although she was unwilling to give up, she could only increase her speed and retreat. Her intention to escape was very obvious.
But for some reason, the cloaked man of the Fire Tribe seemed to be determined to kill her here. Not only did he launch wave after wave of Flaming Saber Attacks, but he also sent a circle of human hunters to pin down her every move.
The two aliens occasionally scolded each other, but the syllables they used were very strange. Chu Yunsheng couldn't understand what they were talking about.
Soon, they fought from the north entrance of the town to the center of the town, destroying countless houses and walls. Finally, at the square in the center of the town, the Ice woman seemed to be exhausted. She repeatedly tried to break out of the encirclement, but she was firmly trapped in the square by the cloaked men of the Fire Race and the human awakeners — a fountain that no longer had water.
The cloaked man from the Fire race hid his body and attacked the Ice woman again and again. His attacks became more and more surging like the tide. The long and narrow blades with flames repeatedly hit the Ice woman's body. In just a moment, her white clothes were torn, and her battle clothes were stained with blood.
Chu Yunsheng had already quietly went downstairs. He held his breath and hid his body in the darkness outside the firelight. He was not too far away from them, but he was not too far away either. He had been secretly following them without revealing his body or making any movements. But his thoughts and ideas gradually evolved from the initial simple preparation of a sneak attack to secretly "learning". This was not deliberately done by him, but because in the process of the intense battle between the two foreign races, there were all kinds of fluctuating yuan qi fluctuations. Some were strong, some were weak, and they were all captured by his keen perception of yuan qi fluctuations. Unconsciously, it affected his understanding of the path of converting energy into power.
Ever since he started to practice the ancient book, he had never received any guidance from anyone. He had to rely on himself to figure it out. Because the ancient book was like a "teaching material", it couldn't be different from person to person. Just because he didn't understand a certain part of the book, it didn't mean that it would add more words, or that it would reduce the length of the book. Therefore, the reason why his cultivation progress was so slow was not only because of his average aptitude, but also because he lacked a "teacher" who could help him solve his problems between the "teaching material" and the "student".
Since ancient times, there were very few people who could learn by themselves without a teacher. Even the ancient sages and the giants of science today all relied on the shoulders of others, or had the guidance of famous teachers in their early years, or had companions to study and debate, or even to verify with each other. But Chu Yunsheng only had one book, he didn't even have a "tutorial material", and there were still many characters that he couldn't recognize, so the difficulty of this book was inexplicably increased a lot.
Thus, he never let go of any opportunity to learn and understand, and it was even more so after the God Domain's cultivation method was changed.
Although the fight between aliens was a very good reference, Chu Yunsheng rarely saw it from a third party's perspective. The only time he saw it was when the cloaked man from the Yellow Mountain Fire Race attacked the castle of Snowstorm. But at that time, he didn't have the time to investigate it carefully. He was focused on saving people, and in the end, he was also involved in the fight. In other times, he was either fighting against the Fire Race or the Ice Race.
Now, in a small town on the edge of Jiang city, such a great opportunity had unintentionally appeared. Chu Yunsheng, who had been hiding in the dark all this time, could either sneak attack or observe in the dark. Even if he couldn't learn anything, he could at least learn a little bit more about the alien race's abilities. So unconsciously, he began to focus his mind and sense the chaotic Yuan Qi fluctuations.
Although the cloaked man from the Fire Race had the ability to hide his body, and even activated the module on the cloak, the energy fluctuations were extremely small, even the Ice Race woman couldn't detect his location. But it still couldn't escape Chu Yunsheng's detection. His sensitivity to the fluctuations of Yuan Qi was an ability he had acquired since the first day he started to practice the ancient book. No matter how small the fluctuations were, as long as the distance was not too far, he wouldn't be able to escape.
Every time it attacked, Chu Yunsheng could quickly remember the Yuan Qi fluctuations at the moment when it attacked. One slash, two slashes, three slashes … until dozens of slashes later, behind the seemingly chaotic Yuan Qi fluctuations, the essence of the Yuan Qi gradually emerged. That subtle but similar fluctuation was hidden in the chaos. If it wasn't for the fact that he was very sensitive to it, he wouldn't have been able to detect it at all.
After that, this trace of fine fluctuation swiftly fused into his understanding of the ancient book's sword style, and many questions were instantly answered. It was as if a blockage had been blocked, and he was actually ready to make a move for a moment.
Looking at the woman from the Ice Race, it was completely different. The cloaked man from the Fire Race was able to control his own fire energy, but the woman from the Ice Race was able to make the best use of the surrounding ice and snow environment. She was able to blend in with the ice energy to attack. Every wave of ice thorns was able to use the least amount of energy to launch the most powerful attack.
Although they were not top-notch combat skills, in terms of energy utilization, it was many times better than Chu Yunsheng's. All the sword techniques and combat skills he knew were like holding a cannonball, it was only powerful, but it was not as powerful as Chu Yunsheng's.
Just as he was observing carefully, more and more questions were answered one by one, he heard the Ice Race woman suddenly let out a clear cry. A cold light shot out from her body, and a big shuttle pierced the flame sword light of the cloaked man from the Fire Race. With the counterforce generated by the energy impact, her body swayed, and she pounced on the human hunters who were wielding their swords like a forest.
"Puff!"
Two long fire spikes instantly pierced through her body, and the red blood flowed down her white clothes. The Ice Race woman's face was cold and resolute. At the cost of her life, she forcibly broke out of the human hunters' encirclement.
'No!'
Chu Yunsheng's pupil suddenly shrank. Dark's insect vision instantly turned the small town into a bright red world. Even the slightest movement could not escape from Dark's super vision.
Just when the Ice Race woman stabbed a fire awakened person with her back facing the cloaked man from the Fire Race, the cloaked man from the Fire Race quickly shoved a square-shaped secret plate into the arms of a female awakened person who just passed by her left shoulder. Her movement was so fast that no one noticed it except for that female awakened person.
"Crack!"
The Ice Race woman waved her left hand and unleashed a stream of ice energy. The female awakened person's eyes flashed, and then she was sent flying away while spitting out a mouthful of blood. She fell to the corner of the square and couldn't get up anymore.
At the same time, the cloaked man from the Fire Race also shrunk his body and dashed out to chase after the Ice Race woman. In the next second, the cloaked man from the Fire Race also dashed forward and chased after the Ice Race woman. Using a flaming sword, the Ice Race woman's back was cut open.
The Ice Race woman bit her lips and let out a muffled groan, but she didn't even look back. She just sped up and left a trail of blood on the cold snow.
"Let's see how far you can run! If you catch her, I will reward you handsomely! "At this time, the cloaked man from the Fire Race suddenly said something. His voice was hoarse and unpleasant to hear.
When the human awakened people saw the Ice Race woman was so weak that even the human's attack could pierce through her body, they didn't dare to be as cautious as before. Instead, they all unleashed their maximum energy and started to chase after the Ice Race woman.
The Ice Race woman tried to run away as fast as she could. She was like a lamp that had run out of oil. At this moment, she didn't even dare to stop a human awakened person. This was the first time that Chu Yunsheng had seen an alien in such a situation.
At this time, Chu Yunsheng noticed that the female awakener who was hit by the Ice woman suddenly moved and fell into the snow on the side of the road, disappearing into the darkness.
It turned out that the reason why she was running away was just to exchange her life for the female awakened person's help! Chu Yunsheng secretly looked at the Ice Race woman. He saw that the cloaked man had successfully sneaked to the Ice Race woman's side. He only needed to use the sword to kill the Ice Race woman.
This was his last chance, and it was fleeting. Suddenly, Yuan Qi surged out of his body!
"Whoosh!"
In an instant, a sharp and piercing white light pierced through the darkness like an inch of black flowing light. It broke through the air and attacked. Just as the sound was heard, the Sword Qi arrived!
The cloaked man from the Fire Race, who was in a hidden state, suddenly stopped. He let out a miserable groan and was sent flying backwards, crashing into the wall on the opposite side of the street.
"Who?"
"Who is it?"
…
All the human awakened people were shocked by the sudden change. Just a black light was enough to send the fire messenger flying in the air. What kind of amazing power was that? Did the Ice Race's master come to rescue them? When they thought of this possibility, many people were stunned. No one could survive the wrath of aliens!
