Although Zhang Yan's moves were all ordinary methods and were mostly meant to probe, he was also continuously pressing forward, not even giving his opponent a chance to take a breather. [Visit Download]
Shao Zhongxiang looked at the incoming sword light and knew that it was too late to dodge. He twisted his body and his whole body was like a reflection in the water, twisting and distorting. In a breath's time, he disappeared from his original position. The male and female swords from before actually combined into one and turned into a dazzling magic sword. After continuously clashing with the flying sword light for a few times, suddenly there was a sword-like hum and he crashed out of the circle. In a flash, he was a few miles away. The sword light turned and his body appeared again. Then he suddenly shouted, his body turned into a stream of light, riding on the black and white sword light to attack.
Zhang Yan saw that he had a strange dodging technique, not to mention the method to deal with it, he was also like Daoren. He immediately guessed that he was an expert in this field and might have a lot of hidden killer moves. No wonder he was so confident earlier.
However, he had a lot of tricks up his sleeves. Since he had used the trapping technique, he did not want to be entangled here. With a wave of his hand, a purple thunderbolt flew over.
Shao Zhongxiang did not dare to be struck by it. He quickly deflected the sword light and dodged to the side.
The way of fighting was not to bring out one's strength to the extreme and at the same time to suppress the opponent. He was good at flying and escaping in the air, using a strange method to win. Facing the opponent head-on was not his original strength. If he was hit by that thunderbolt, even if he did not die, he would be half crippled.
At this time, he saw a barely discernible water droplet flying over. He had no choice but to use the sword to escape. In just a few breaths, there was a flash of light behind him. Just Now, that sword light had caught up again. The muscles on his face could not help but twitch, he felt a little depressed.
From the beginning of the fight, he was suppressed. He originally wanted to fight back after a few rounds, but Zhang Yan's magical powers were like a deep pool, always bottomless. When he got a little closer, he was always forced out, unable to find a suitable opportunity to attack.
Originally, it wasn't that he hadn't encountered an opponent with such swift and fierce attacks. Usually, he would fly far away and look for an opportunity in the outer circle. But just now, he'd witnessed Zhang Yan's Violet Cloud Divine Lightning, and its great might caused him to be extremely fearful. He was extremely afraid that Zhang Yan would be able to calmly execute it without restraint, so he didn't dare to fly too far away.
However, this situation had to be changed. Although it looked like he was only dodging and did not consume much mana, the opponent had endless methods. Under the heavy pressure, it was hard to guarantee that he would not make mistakes. In a fight between two Yuanying, a slight carelessness could lead to death.
When he thought up to here, he roused his spirits and abruptly stopped moving. He stopped dodging and circulated the Male and Female Swords to repel the few sword lights that assaulted him, and with a shake of his shoulder, a white and moist jade ladle that was dazzling with a precious light hung down from the high cloud to hold the Netherezim Heavy Water. But when he was struck by the heavy water, he seemed to feel it as well, causing his body to tremble violently. He forcefully suppressed the surging vital energy in his chest and seized this rare opportunity to withdraw a talisman paper from his sleeve before stuffing it into his mouth, and then swiftly chewing it a few times before puffing his cheeks and blowing, causing a three inch Phoenix Beak Needle that was suffused with a dim light to fly out towards Zhang Yan.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he hurriedly made a hand sign, the two swords instantly merged into one, then his body twisted, disappearing into thin air. The sword light rushed up, moving inwards, thinking that as long as it was within three hundred feet, he could attack with the sword, no longer being forced to fight back like before.
When Zhang Yan saw that the flying needle was in front of him, he suddenly waved his sleeve, a surging wave of mana passed by, sweeping it away.
Shao Zhongxiang came with the help of the sword, how fast was he, in this short moment of opportunity, he broke in. His heart was delighted, he was about to use the sword to kill, but at this moment, he suddenly heard a rumbling sound, a curtain of water appeared in front of him, like a ferocious mountain torrent, the boundless tide of water rushed towards him, he shouted, had no choice but to hide inside the magic sword again, once again being forced out of the inner circle.
After coming out, he looked at the surging and boundless light of water from afar, his face pale, he said hatefully, "If I had the Hundred Shadow Sword, how would I be blocked here, I would have already killed my way in."
Although his escape into the magic sword technique was miraculous, but it only lasted for three to four breaths, every time he used up a lot of mana, if it was the "Hundred Shadow Sword" from the sect, it would be enough for more than ten breaths, no matter if it was far away or attacking the enemy, it would be very easy.
Suddenly, there was movement behind him, and the sword light from before was chasing after him again. He had no choice but to dodge, and he couldn't help but feel exhausted from running for his life.
He thought to himself, "This person is standing still. He must be affected by the astral wind and can't fly freely. I might as well use that method to defeat him."
He took out a handful of colorful stones from his sleeve. Each of them was shaped like a broad bean. He crushed them in his palm and opened them again.
The stone shell had already shattered, revealing a dozen or so little bugs, all the size of a grain of rice, curled up into a ball. After seeing the sun, they began to wriggle. A moment later, their bodies swelled up and stretched out. They were the size of a baby's fist, their bodies like a whip, fat and thick, scaly hair like brushes. Below their abdomens were more than a hundred short tentacles, and on their backs were a pair of transparent wings.
This was the Armor Bug, a rare and strange bug in the world. It lived when exposed to the light and died when exposed to the night. It loved to eat the essence of cultivators, and the protective treasured light was useless in front of this bug. It was not afraid of divine weapons, and once it burrowed into the body, it would suck the marrow and brain, turning the person into an empty shell.
Since ancient times, there were many poisonous bugs and silver in the South Cliffs Continent. He found this bug during his travels, and after being cursed, it could listen to his orders to kill his opponent. He didn't hope for this bug to defeat Zhang Yan, but to go up and restrain him, then he could use his skills.
The dozen or so white bugs flapped their membranous wings, and without waiting for his orders, they took the initiative to fly towards Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan's eyes flashed. He had met quite a few cultivators in the Dong Sheng Continent, but he had never met a truly brilliant cultivator. However, the methods that Shao Zhongxiang was using right now, and all sorts of dao techniques and divine abilities, he seemed to have a way to deal with them. This was not something that a cultivator who was limited to one place could have, and he must have met quite a few experts.
He raised his hand and pressed forward, and the true light of water behind him stirred up a huge wave. The Armor Bugs sensed danger, and dispersed with a whoosh. They were as fast as a white thread, avoiding the water screen, and scuttled inside.
A dozen or so sword gleams flew out at this moment, and each of them accurately slashed the back of the bug, slicing it into two. However, in the blink of an eye, the two halves of the body grew a head and a tail, and the number almost doubled. Even if a few of them had their membranous wings cut off, they just shook their bodies and shook off their necrotic wings, and instantly, a pair of wings grew back.
When Zhang Yan saw this, he wasn't surprised. His eyes flashed, and he thought to himself, 'It really is the Armor Bugs. It's rumored that as long as the sun doesn't set, it can't be killed, and the more it is killed, the more it grows.'
This kind of strange bug was born from the Fierce Yang Qi, and would automatically die at night. However, he didn't care about it now. Not to mention fighting with Shao Zhongxiang, even if the flying sword escaped, this bug would still turn around to look for others. It wouldn't take long for it to become so overwhelming that it couldn't be restrained. Not only would it affect the cultivators here, it would also implicate the people here.
He gave a shout, and a blazing flame flew out from the high clouds above, flashing across the sky. The Armor Bugs were burnt by this flame, and turned into a wisp of smoke. However, after a moment, the smoke gathered and returned to normal in the blink of an eye.
When Zhang Yan saw that even this couldn't stop this thing, he couldn't help but raise his brows slightly, and he thought to himself, 'This Fierce Yang Bug needs something poisonous to be able to restrain it.'
While he was thinking, Shao Zhongxiang had already caught his breath, and instantly rushed into the inner circle. He took out his swords and twisted them towards the enemy's neck. Halfway through, a sword light took the initiative to greet him, and pushed his swords to the side. However, he wasn't shocked, and instead, he was delighted. Previously, he couldn't even retaliate, but now he could do it freely. It was obvious that the Armor Bugs were effective, and attracted most of the enemy's attention. As long as he increased his sword momentum and attacked with all his strength, he might be able to find a good opportunity to behead the enemy.
At this moment, Zhang Yan seemed to have thought of something, and he suddenly smiled, "I got it."
He first glanced at where Shao Zhongxiang was, and then he split out thirty-six sword lights to slash at him. This series of storm-like attacks caused Shao Zhongxiang to be drenched in sweat, and he hurriedly escaped into the sword and dodged the attacks.
After forcing them away, Zhang Yan flicked his sleeve, causing a gust of strong wind to blow the swarm of beetles away. After that, he calmly took out a jade bottle, unplugged it, and shook it. A strand of white smoke sprayed out from within, and then a round beetle that was shaped like a shuttle flew out. However, its body was covered in a bloody glow, and it emitted a fishy smell.
He originally wanted to order this Bloodline Gold Bug to deal with the Armor Bugs, but this bug stuck to his side and refused to leave. He pondered for a moment, and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to be greedy for this thing. Fine, even a mortal emperor doesn't need hungry soldiers. Today, I'll fulfill your wish."
He circulated a mouthful of Jun Yang energy from his abdomen, opened his mouth, and sprayed a stream of clear energy on the blood worm's body. After receiving the energy, the worm let out a buzzing sound, and its body swelled up. The blood color on its body became as thick as a paste. Suddenly, it let out a shrill cry, and one after another, more blood worms flew out of the jade bottle.
After a few breaths of time, a large blood cloud appeared. At a glance, there were probably no less than tens of thousands of them. Under the lead of the insect, they charged towards the Black Beetle. In almost an instant, the insect tide had drowned the 20 odd white insects.
However, many of them hadn't eaten their fill, and when they saw that there was nothing left to fill their stomachs, they turned to stare at Shao Zhongxiang.
Shao Zhongxiang's face turned pale. Although he didn't know this bug, it could be seen that it was more vicious than the Armor Bugs. He panicked, and quickly escaped on his sword.
Zhang Yan sensed the place for a while, and when he saw that the Armor Bugs had been taken care of, and there was no lingering poison left, he nodded, and soared into the sword light, chasing in the direction that the Armor Bugs escaped.
At this moment, Shao Zhongxiang's forehead was already covered in sweat. After hiding for a while, the mana in his body was greatly consumed, but he still couldn't shake off the swarm of bugs behind him. No matter where he flew to, they always chased after him.
He gritted his teeth. At this moment, his life was more important, and he didn't care about hiding anymore. With a leap, he went into the female sword. Then, the male sword gave off a strong sword light, and with a turn, a swoosh, a large number of bug corpses fell. The golden bugs behind him were endless, and it was far from what he could clean up in a few moves. However, with this obstruction, the Yin sword could escape, and in a flash, it actually disappeared without a trace.
But just at this moment, a sword light leaped over, and slashed in the void, giving out a clanging sound. The female sword reappeared, and Shao Zhongxiang was knocked out from his hiding place in a sorry state.
After using this last hiding technique, his mana was exhausted, and he could only watch in despair as the Bloodline Gold Bugs pounced on him, and then swarmed up, completely swallowing his body.
