The Heaven and Earth Leaf's golden light dispersed and the flying daggers that were patrolling outside were no longer obstructed. They took the opportunity to rush in and slashed at Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan saw the flying knives coming at him, but he didn't dodge or avoid them. With a loud shout, he raised his hand and pointed at the sword pellet. The sixteen sword lights suddenly flew up, and the twenty-seven Yang Knives that were originally entangled with them were all thrown off and turned to attack Shen Lintu.
Shen Lintu was also secretly shocked. He didn't expect that Zhang Yan would actually dare to disregard his defense at this moment and instead go all out to attack him.
From his point of view, this was obviously the idea of attacking the enemy's weakness to force him to withdraw his killing move and relieve himself of the danger.
At the same time that he admired Chen Xi's boldness and decisiveness, a feeling of ridicule arose in his heart, and he thought to himself, If it was someone else, that person might be thrown into confusion by you and struggle for a chance to win. But doing this in front of me is the path to death.
His body trembled and released the treasure light that protected his body. It was like a mist that was dazzling. At the same time, he used his technique and the jade dagger in his hand flew up. When it was in the air, it turned into fifty-four daggers and formed a dense net of daggers that repelled the sword rays.
On the other hand, on Zhang Yan's side, the dagger aura was approaching Just Now. Before it could touch his body, the "Jing Luo Dun Jun Bao You Yi" on his body had already sensed it and immediately propped up a bright light. It was released three feet away and blocked the attacking white daggers.
The dagger ray was extremely sharp and after repeated slashes, it actually shaved off a lot of the bright light. However, it still could not break through.
Shen Lintu took a glance and could not help but let out a sound of surprise.
His cultivation was high and his flying dagger technique was not something that the disciples in the sect could compare to. Normal treasures could not block it at all. And now that he was unable to achieve the result, it was obvious that the Taoist robe that Zhang Yan was wearing was also a treasure.
He frowned. If it was only one weapon, it would not be difficult to deal with it. But if it was two, then it would be a little troublesome. Unless he could defeat the enemy in one strike, it would be very difficult to take him down.
Actually, with his Yuanying level three cultivation and the treasures in his hands. If he could gather his strength and attack with all his might, he might be able to break it.
But this was only on paper. One had to know that cultivators weren't inanimate objects. They wouldn't just stand there and let others hack at them. If they sensed that something was amiss, they would dodge.
This was especially so for someone like Zhang Yan who was proficient in flying swords. He could fly and move freely, so it was even more impossible for him to have such a chance.
Therefore, if they didn't come up with a good plan and continued to fight like this, even if their spiritual energy was depleted, they might not be able to determine the victor.
Shen Lintu could not help but ponder. He thought to himself, "Although my speed isn't slow, flying through the air is this person's forte. If I chase after him, I'll be at a disadvantage. We need to find a way to trap him. "
While he was plotting a way to defeat the enemy, after Zhang Yan blocked the flying knife, he had already freed up his hands. He pointed upwards and swung the Heaven and Earth Leaf in the air, releasing a wisp of cloud light. It was as if it had enveloped him and the flying daggers within.
Zhang Yan let out a shout and activated the Swift Mystic Art. He shot out several bolts of Purple Cloud Heavenly Thunder, which landed on the flying daggers. With a thunderous roar, the flying daggers were shattered and dispersed into wisps of Water Essence Qi.
He knew that the Yin Yang Flying Daggers could be separated or combined, dispersed or gathered. As long as he did not care about them, even if no one was controlling them, these flying daggers would condense again in no time. Therefore, he took out the Mountain and River Diagram and tore it apart with both hands. Then, he waved it in front of the water essence Qi. The water essence Qi seemed to be absorbed by an invisible force and disappeared into the diagram.
While Shen Lintu was pondering, he suddenly felt that the knife Qi had lost connection with his mind. He couldn't help but be startled. He knew that Zhang Yan had used some unknown method to break it. He exclaimed, "Junior, good method!"
If the Chongyue True Temple disciple's knife Qi was taken away by Zhang Yan, he would need to use the water essence Qi to cast a spell to condense it. But with his cultivation, he had already broken away from the barrier. He could condense the Vitality Flying Knife purely with his mana.
He stretched out his hand and used his technique. A white gas rose from his palm. After a moment, it suddenly separated and turned into many flying knives. However, the number was more than before. There were a total of 486 knives. The cold light of the knives were like snowflakes dancing in the air.
He made a hand sign and divided the flying knives into three groups. Each group had 162 knives. With another wave of his sleeve, one of the groups flew towards Zhang Yan.
The other two groups of flying knives didn't come to find trouble with him. Instead, they came from the left and right and flew to the side. Looking at the situation, it seemed like they wanted to cut off his escape route.
Zhang Yan looked at the momentum of the flying knives and his heart was slightly moved. Whether it was the Treasured Robe or the Heaven and Earth Leaf, they could protect his body. No matter which side attacked, there wouldn't be an opening for those ordinary talismans. He didn't believe that Shen Lintu couldn't see that. But knowing that, the other party still did it. There must be a deeper purpose.
Although he couldn't see it for a moment, he couldn't let the other party do as he wished. So, he didn't get entangled with the knife gleam. Instead, he used Sword Escape and dodged the sharp gleam.
Shen Lintu, however, didn't let it go. He drove the few flying knives in a circle and formed a triangle to outflank him. It seemed like he wanted to trap him inside.
Seeing such a situation, Zhang Yan was even more certain of his thoughts. Relying on the speed of Sword Escape, a sword gleam circled around and he was always able to escape from the circle of knives in time.
Although he was flying and dodging, he wasn't blindly retreating. Instead, he was secretly looking for a good opportunity to counterattack.
However, Shen Lintu didn't relax his defense just because he was a first layer Yuanying cultivator. His defense was exceptionally tight.
When he used the flying knives, he didn't release them all at once. Instead, he always left a few knife gleams behind. If he could return, he could. In addition to the protective treasure light that flowed around his body like clouds, it wasn't easy to break through.
Shen Lintu did his best to activate the flying knives to intercept and chase, but he couldn't trap Zhang Yan. After several hours, he also gradually felt impatient. With a flip of his hand, he took out a silver ring. Aiming at Zhang Yan's flying direction, he threw it out.
Zhang Yan had been paying attention to his movements. Before the magic treasure reached him, he shouted and used the "Longevity Locking Cicada". A spot of clear light went straight to the treasure. With a crisp "ding", it attached to the magic treasure and firmly fixed it in mid-air.
The corners of Shen Lintu's mouth twitched slightly. He'd attacked a few times, yet all of them were dealt with by Zhang Yan using Magic Treasures. Moreover, every single one of those Magic Treasures were extraordinary, causing him to be extremely shocked. Even as an elder of the Sublime Yue True Temple, he didn't possess such abundant wealth.
He thought that if he didn't use any tricks and continued to waste time like this, the outcome wouldn't be any different even if they fought for several days and nights. He couldn't help but think to himself, "I originally wanted to capture this person and force the Yin Killer Knife out. I didn't expect it to be so difficult. I might as well kill him first and then torture his spirit."
He originally didn't want to fall out with Qincang School. However, his goal couldn't be achieved, and he had no hope of achieving Dao, so he could only kill.
The Donghua Continent was in a great calamity now, and he didn't believe that the other party could disperse their forces and kill their way to Chongyue True Temple.
As for Zhang Yan saying that the knife was given to his disciple, he thought that it was a lie.
Killing weapons were one in a hundred and were extremely difficult to find. Even if Chongyue True Temple had three major weapons in their hands, there was only one that could be used to injure the enemy in battle.
He didn't think that Zhang Yan couldn't see the value in it, so he was more willing to believe that the Yin Killer Knife was unwilling to be controlled.
With the intention to kill in his heart, he didn't hold back when he attacked.
His eyelids drooped, and he silently used his Xuan Qi. His mana climbed up layer by layer, and in an instant, a dense white mist rose from the top. After it reached the clouds, it spread outwards. In just a moment, it densely covered the sky with a radius of more than ten miles. For a moment, the haze covered the sky, covering the sun and the sky.
Zhang Yan suddenly felt an invisible force enveloping him, as if a huge rock was pressing down on him. When he moved, it was not as easy as before.
His body had only paused for a moment, and with this slight delay, the flying daggers that were chasing after him seized the opportunity and suddenly spread out, surrounding him from all directions. However, they were not in a hurry to attack, and instead faintly sealed off his path of retreat.
Zhang Yan swept the surroundings with his gaze. He was able to faintly sense that these flying daggers contained some sort of profound technique, and it was slightly similar to a formation. It had already locked down this expanse of the heavens and the earth, causing him to be unable to fly out.
He was instantly on guard. That day, when he fought with the statue of the Divine Lord of Lie Xuan Sect, he felt that it was difficult to make a move, so he also used a similar technique. Just Now, he was trying to capture him.
The lesson was not far away, and he didn't dare to let his guard down at all.
At this moment, Shen Lintu raised his hand and made a few complicated hand signs. There was a faint surge of spiritual energy behind him, and all of a sudden, a blade ray soared up to the sky. It was half black and half white, and the ferocious light kept spitting out. From the sea to the sky, it was at least a thousand feet tall.
He remained silent for a long time, and suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes shone brightly, and with a roar, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at Zhang Yan. The blade ray behind him suddenly trembled, and like a collapsing mountain, it suddenly slashed down, as if it wanted to kill him in one go!
This blade ray traversed the sky, and it was at least a few miles long. A loud rumble could be heard in the eardrums, and before it landed, the sea below was already separated from the two sides.
Just by looking at the power of this blade, Zhang Yan knew that he couldn't take it head-on. He took a deep breath, and with a light touch of his feet, he used the Small Heavens Shifting Escape Technique. In an instant, he was a thousand feet away. He only heard a loud noise behind him, and when he turned around, he saw that the blade had actually cut the temple below into two, and a ravine that was more than a hundred feet wide and a few miles long was formed.
Seeing him dodge, Shen Lintu sneered and waved his blade again. This time, it was a diagonal slash. Zhang Yan's figure flickered, and he once again escaped a thousand feet away. He heard a loud rumble, and it turned out that a section of the coral wall of the Reef Manor was shaved off.
Shen Lintu waved his blade a few more times. Now, every blade had great power, and it consumed a lot of mana. If it wasn't for the fact that he had trapped Zhang Yan, he wouldn't have used it like this.
However, he didn't expect that he would be able to kill Zhang Yan with this. He only used this method to force him to keep dodging, and to restrict him from the side, so that he wouldn't have time to worry about anything else.
At the same time, he urged the four hundred and eighty-six flying daggers under the blade to press inwards, slowly squeezing the space that Zhang Yan could dodge.
Seeing that with a few more slashes, he would be able to make Zhang Yan have no room to dodge. Shen Lintu felt that victory was already in his hands, and a smile gradually appeared on his face.
