"Die together?"
No, Lin Zhonglang was not an idiot. He would not do this kind of unprofitable business, and Chu Mu was not an idiot either. He would not do such a stupid thing.
This was not only a battle of sword arts, but also a battle of aura. Whoever was worried and dodged first would have a weaker aura, and Chu Mu knew this very well.
With a flick of his wrist, the Windcutter Sword vibrated at a high speed. Zhen Tian's Force was used to push the opponent's short sword away, and the broken short sword bounced towards Lin Zhonglang's right hand according to Chu Mu's intention. If Lin Zhonglang did not stop it, it would affect his attack.
Lin Zhonglang was very experienced in fighting. His left hand did not resist but pushed forward, and the sword light on the two short swords shot out towards Chu Mu's eyes.
Chu Mu's head shook, and he took advantage of the slight time difference between the two sword lights to dodge. The Windcutter Sword slashed horizontally, and the Sky Origin Sword Qi that contained the ripping mentality tore through the air, turning into a five meter long sword Qi.
Lin Zhonglang waved his hands quickly, and the two wolf tooth short swords crisscrossed, directly shattering Chu Mu's sword Qi. The sword Qi surged, and the mentality of gold was integrated into the sword Qi, forming a sword net that rushed towards Chu Mu.
Chu Mu raised his eyelids, and his eyes shone brightly. The Windcutter Sword pierced out, hitting the weakest part of the sword net and breaking it. Countless sword Qi shot out in all directions, like fireworks.
The Forest Wolf's speed was as fast as lightning. He circled around Chu Mu and attacked. The two Wolf Fang Short Swords were full of killing intent as they crisscrossed and slashed towards Chu Mu. The two Wolf Fang Short Swords seemed to come alive in the Forest Wolf's hands, as if they were the fangs of a fierce wolf.
Chu Mu did not move, and let Lin Zhonglang continue to attack. He blocked one sword after another, and counterattacked, using the Zhen Tian Force from time to time.
Once again, Lin Zhonglang retreated with a swoosh, causing a commotion among the crowd.
"Forest Wolf actually retreated?"
"Unbelievable. This young swordsman is unbelievable. He can actually make Forest Wolf retreat."
In their impression, whether they had seen it with their own eyes or heard it from others, once Forest Wolf attacked, he would never retreat unless his opponent was killed by him.
Therefore, when they saw that Forest Wolf had retreated without killing or even injuring his opponent, they all widened their eyes and rubbed them hard, thinking that they were hallucinating.
"Kid, once I, Lin Zhonglang, attack, I never retreat. This is the first time I've retreated. You should feel honored." Lin Zhonglang grinned, and the green light in his eyes became even more obvious. It was very scary. His teeth were also very sharp, as if he was going to bite into flesh. "You are indeed a student of the Sword Mansion's Bronze Sword Ranking. Your swordsmanship is indeed extraordinary. I acknowledge you. I will not kill you this time, but you have to obediently hand over the Spirit Devouring Pearl."
"Spirit Devouring Pearl!"
"It's actually a Spirit Devouring Pearl!"
"That young swordsman actually has a Spirit Devouring Pearl. No wonder I felt that the Spirit Qi around him was a bit different when we passed by each other."
"No wonder he was targeted by Lin Zhonglang because of the Spirit Devouring Pearl. The best thing to do is to hand over the Spirit Devouring Pearl. Perhaps he can save his life."
"Using the Spirit Devouring Pearl to lure him out?" Chu Mu muttered to himself and smiled, "I do have a Spirit Devouring Orb, but I don't give my things away casually."
"If that's the case, then you don't know what's good for you. I will take your life as well." Lin Zhonglang did not want to waste any more words and attacked again.
This time, he did not fight Chu Mu with his swordsmanship like before. Instead, he crossed his two wolf-tooth short swords in front of him, like a ferocious wolf opening its mouth. Sword Qi surged out, and the power of gold mentality exploded as he performed an ancient sword skill.
A wolf howl was heard, and the swordsmen who were a few hundred meters away shuddered as their hair stood on end.
Then, Lin Zhonglang seemed to have disappeared and was replaced by a huge black wolf head. The wolf head's eyes were red, and its fangs were protruding out of its open mouth. They were shining with a golden light and were extremely sharp.
The terrifying Evil Qi surged out like a tide, making the power of this skill even more terrifying.
"It's Lin Zhonglang's famous ancient sword skill, the Wolf Slaughter Sword Skill!"
"I recognize that skill. It's called the Ferocious Wolf Bite. It's the second skill of the Wolf Slaughter Sword Skill."
"What a powerful ancient sword skill." The aura made Chu Mu slightly surprised. The power of this ancient sword skill was probably no less than his Wind Sword Skill. It even contained 53% of the gold mentality, which was cultivated to Dacheng's level.
"Wolf Slaughter Sword Skill … I'll kill you first." Chu Mu muttered to himself. It was the Wind Sword Skill, the Wind Sword Skill.
A violent wind blew. As the sword stabbed out, 30% of the Ripping Mentality was integrated into it.
The power of 30% of the Ripping Mentality was equivalent to 60% of the gold mentality. It was extremely terrifying and much stronger than Lin Zhonglang's 50% gold mentality.
The power of the Wind Sword Skill was no less than the Ferocious Wolf Bite. The power of the Ripping Mentality was far stronger than the gold mentality. This sword tore the black wolf head apart and stabbed towards Lin Zhonglang, who had revealed his true body.
Lin Zhonglang was shocked. He never expected that his Ferocious Wolf Bite would be broken apart by a single sword.
Moreover, the terrifying power of concept contained in his opponent's sword caused his hair to stand on end. He felt as if his protective sword energy was about to be torn apart. Even his skin and flesh felt as if they were being torn apart.
Lin Zhonglang's body suddenly dived downwards as if he had transformed into a wolf. He quickly jumped to the side and dodged Chu Mu's sword.
With a swoosh, Chu Mu changed his move. It was the Wind Sword Skill, the Wind Fury!
One Sword Wind Fury!
With a rustling sound, the sand and stones on the ground were blown up and gathered together. The flying sand and stones made the sword move even more powerful.
The spectating swordsmen were all dumbfounded.
Not only did they see Lin Zhonglang take the initiative to retreat in a battle for the first time, but it was also the first time they saw Lin Zhonglang's Ancient Sword Technique, Wolf's Bite, being broken by a sword head-on, forcing him to dodge quickly.
Most importantly, Lin Zhonglang's opponent was a young swordsman whose Sword Qi cultivation was one level lower than his.
The murderous intent in Lin Zhonglang's heart was unimaginable. His sword technique had been broken by someone he could easily crush, and he had even been forced to retreat. He had even been chased by his opponent.
While running, Forest Wolf suddenly let out a strange howl. His body suddenly rushed up into the air, and while doing a somersault in the air, he lowered his head to avoid the Wrath of the Wind. At the same time, he clasped his two short swords together and started spinning.
"It's the third move of the Wolf Slayer Sword Art, Wolf Whirling Kill!"
Because of their great reputation, the ancient sword techniques of the Desolate Border Ferocious Five also became well-known.
"Very powerful indeed!" Thinking to himself, Chu Mu swung his sword up. Thirty-two percent of the Tearing Mentality had been infused into the Wind Cutting Sword. The Heaven Yuan Sword Qi exploded and condensed.
The Wrath of the Wind had the smallest attacking area, and because it had been trained to completion, it was also the easiest to control. All of the power had been condensed on the tip of the sword. The sword sliced through the air, and Ye Chen's whole body shot up into the air.
This sword attack was aimed at the sharpest part of the Wolf Spinning Kill, which was also the weakest part.
The two attacks clashed. The sharp points clashed, and a horrifying ear-piercing sound exploded. The air was filled with a ringing sound, and the horrifying sword Qi spread out, shattering the sand and stones on the ground into dust.
The Tearing Mentality and the Gold Mentality were fighting against each other. After a second, the Tearing Mentality had torn the Gold Mentality apart. Ye Chen had broken Lin Zhonglang's sword attack with one sword attack, and then continued to stab at Lin Zhonglang.
Lin Zhonglang's expression suddenly changed. He hurriedly separated his hands and waved his two short swords, attacking Chu Mu's Wind Cutting Sword. Chu Mu's wrist vibrated, and the Zhen Tian power shook Lin Zhonglang's short swords away three times.
Chu Mu, who had shot up into the air, and Lin Zhonglang, who was falling down, were about to pass by each other. However, another sword appeared in Chu Mu's left hand all of a sudden, and he waved it out.
The Tearing Mentality had been condensed on the Gold Sword, and it had reached thirty percent. Even steel would be as fragile as tofu under this sword attack.
Lin Zhonglang's protective sword Qi was as good as nothing.
It was too sudden. Not only was it out of everyone's expectation, it was also out of Lin Zhonglang's expectation. He was not prepared for it at all.
Fast, it was way too fast. It was Chu Mu's deliberate attack. The extreme speed of the sword made it impossible for people to catch the trajectory of the Gold Sword.
"Yan Kaiming … You tricked me …" Lin Zhonglang's eyes flashed with a touch of despair. In this state, he could not use any of his skills. He could only feel his protective sword Qi being easily torn apart. In a trance, he seemed to see a touch of dark gold passing through his body.
For a moment, Lin Zhonglang seemed to see the smiling faces of countless people he had killed. They were all reaching out to grab him, grabbing his body, and dragging his soul into hell.
The Gold Sword cut through Lin Zhonglang's waist without any resistance.
A drop of blood flew out with the sword, shining in a strange light in the air, and sprinkling in all directions.
The Forest Wolf's body was split into two as it fell. Immediately, blood spurted out like a fountain and poured down like a torrential downpour. It hit the barren ground and quickly seeped into the dried-up ground, turning it dark red.
With two consecutive thuds, the two halves of Lin Zhonglang's body rolled down. His two eyes were wide open, staring at the sky as if they were questioning something. They were full of unwillingness, anger, and a trace of regret.
Chu Mu also fell to the ground, landing beside Lin Zhonglang's body.
"Dead … Dead …" The swordsmen in the distance were all stuttering.
"Lin Zhonglang is dead …"
"It's over, it's over, the Savage Five are going to go crazy."
"Go, go, go, let's leave this place quickly."
The swordsmen's faces were all deathly pale, looking panicked. They hurriedly left, all of them in a sorry state.
They were extremely scared. They were scared that they would be affected because they watched. They were scared that the other four of the Savage Five would go crazy after hearing the news of Lin Zhonglang's death. With their habits, they might even start a massacre.
And this young swordsman who killed Lin Zhonglang was dead for sure. He was definitely dead. The Savage Five would definitely not let him go. They would definitely kill him, kill him by a thousand cuts. He would die an incomparably miserable death. (To be continued.
