Lü Shu chased after him into the forest. The old Taoist priest sat cross-legged and closed his eyes to regulate his breathing. When he opened his eyes again, he looked at Lü Shu's back. "There is no need to chase after him. You are not even at C class. You cannot defeat him."
"How would I know if I don't fight?" Lü Shu's figure sped up once more as he charged into the forest. In the blink of an eye, he had entered the strange brilliance of the strange tree. Chen Baili suddenly felt that the strange tree did not seem to be attacking Lü Shu. However, Lü Shu's speed was too fast. Using the wind to carry the tree branches, it looked as if the tree branches wanted to catch Lü Shu but could not do so in time.
Chen Baili continued to sit cross-legged and regulate his breathing. However, he could not forget the young man's back view that said he would not know if he didn't fight.
If he could go back in time, he would probably have the same fearless appearance when he was young. Chen Baili suddenly felt that Lü Shu and not Lü Xiaoyu were more suitable to inherit his mantle.
However, he did not know if he could make it in time.
…
Lü Shu kept looking at the direction of the needle as he sprinted. Gradually, he could even feel the energy fluctuations coming from the forest ahead of him. The distance between them was rapidly closing.
Not only did the other party give up on continuing to consume energy and dive into the soil, but his speed had also begun to slow down.
All of a sudden, Lü Shu felt that something was amiss. The other party's energy fluctuations had actually disappeared for a moment.
The next moment, Lü Shu suddenly saw the sand beside him sweeping toward him like a tornado. The fine sand was like a sharp blade, and any tree branches that came into contact with it would be reduced to powder.
The other party was actually turning around to finish him off!
In an instant, Lü Shu's Starry Muslin Robe protected his body. His right foot took a step forward and his fist shot toward the sand tornado.
The dazzling branches and leaves of the strange tree in Lü Shu's eyes began to shatter. The starlight within his body, which was originally scattered in the Star Map, began to rapidly gather, flowing into a river of stars and surging toward his fist!
He held nothing back with this punch!
With a loud boom, Lü Shu's hair flew backwards. The surrounding tree branches swayed as if a gale had passed through. The originally cool air suddenly became hot!
This was a duel between experts. The strange tree that was usually feared could only be used as a foil.
The sand collided with the Star Silk Robe and crackled. Every single grain of sand instantly shattered.
Only then did Lü Shu get a good look at the white man in front of him. He did not even have the time to check the negative emotions he was receiving. There was a small bloody hole in the man's waist that was bleeding profusely. His face was frighteningly pale.
The clothes on the white man's upper body were probably torn during his battle with Chen Baili. Lü Shu looked carefully at the area around the white man's waist. There seemed to be a thin layer of sand covering the white man's skin, forming a protective armor. However, it had been pierced through by Chen Baili's small cyan sword, leaving behind a bloody hole.
At this moment, the sand armor covering the white man's skin was as terrifying as the cracked earth after a drought. There was also a small crack on the white man's chin, a horrifying sight to behold.
The white man did not expect Lü Shu to be able to block his sneak attack. Moreover, he had displayed an extremely powerful body and even had a layer of mysterious energy armor protecting his body!
It should be known that body armor was something that only C-rank practitioners and above could possess. This was also the reason why it was said that C-rank powerhouses were not afraid of firearms. Ordinary firearms without spiritual power would have a hard time penetrating armor in one go.
However, why was the energy form of this body armor unheard of?
In the instant they exchanged blows, the white man understood that even if he could take down this strange youngster in his current state, he would not be able to afford it!
After all, his target had never been anyone else but Chen Baili! Someone had used an ancient earth-type artifact to exchange for Chen Baili's head. If not for the dual temptation of an array core and an earth-type artifact, he would not have gotten involved in this matter!
If he were to allow Chen Baili to recuperate in peace while he had to fight with someone else, the situation would be very bad for him.
The ruins were like a huge cage of heaven and earth. If they did not obtain the array eye, they would not be able to get out. If Chen Baili had recovered from his injuries in advance and wanted to fight him to the end without even obtaining the array eye, then this trip to China would be really dangerous!
Moreover, based on his understanding of Chen Baili, it was very likely that the other party would risk his life to keep him here!
The two of them were chasing each other in the forest. However, it was at this moment that Lü Shu struck before the white swordsman could make up his mind. The Dead Dog lunged at the white swordsman's head with a loud rumble!
The trees between the two of them were pierced through easily by the Dead Dog, and cracking sounds could be heard from the inside of the tree.
The white swordsman was startled. This was a unique technique of China, the flying sword!
A large amount of sand rolled up behind the white swordsman, hitting the Dead Dog like bullets in an attempt to block the attack. A loud sound of collision could be heard in the forest.
If one only heard the sound, they would think it was the sound of a bullet hitting a steel plate; however, it was the sound of the sand colliding with the small sword of the Dead Dog!
When an individual's strength was comparable to that of a walking human-shaped weapon of mass destruction, it was truly terrifying!
However, the white swordsman was indeed severely injured. It might be enough to kill an ordinary C class expert, but Lü Shu was not an ordinary C class expert!
The Dead Dog's speed was slowed down, but he still kept on charging at the white swordsman!
The white swordsman tilted his head to the right as he was dashing forward. The Dead Dog brushed past his face and left a bloody mark on it. For some reason, the white swordsman suddenly felt that the sharpness of this flying sword was even more terrifying than that of Chen Baili's sword!
With the bloody mark on his face as the center, the armor attached to his skin cracked again.
However, when he thought it was over, the white swordsman suddenly felt … a wisp of his soul seemed to be sealed in his body. He felt gloomy all of a sudden, as if this sword had taken away all his happiness! The white swordsman was instantly depressed, and he even started to imagine what his family members would do if he died!
He was astonished, wondering what kind of method this was.
At his level, he could vaguely feel that the damage to his soul caused by the sword was not unrecoverable. It was just that he could not pull himself together in a short period of time. It was as if the other party had cast a curse on him!
He couldn't afford to be careless any longer, as this sword was a bit strange!
Jing Jiu controlled the sand with all his might, and the sand armor on his body loosened up. The fine white sand gathered in his palm. As he lifted his hand, the armor turned into a special white sand, heading toward the Dead Dog to engulf him.
As Lü Shu was about to control the Dead Dog to turn around and fly back, he found that the white frost had started to condense on the Dead Dog's body, making it difficult to control him!
He had underestimated a swordsman of B class, who had so many methods!
