You Huanduo's expression changed slightly as he watched his four men fall to the ground. He frowned and praised, "Good swordsmanship!"
This move was the embodiment of the Samadhi of swordsmanship. Not only did it return to its original state, but it also seemed to be able to predict the enemy's moves. It looked simple but contained indescribable subtlety. It was one of the most outstanding swordsmanship he had encountered in his life.
No wonder he was able to blind the eyes of his four subordinates with a single move without any True Qi, making them look like ordinary people who did not know martial arts!
However, no matter how exquisite the swordsmanship was, without the support of Inner Force, it was like water without a source or a tree without roots. As long as he ignored the changes and attacked directly with Violent Sand Super Force and his profound Inner Force, he would not give him any chance to get close. He could kill him with Air-splitting Palm or Palm Style from a distance.
"Humph, after all, your Kung Fu has been destroyed. Let's see how you can summon the Sky Thunder!" Having achieved his goal, You Huanduo leaped off the horse's back. He tapped the ground with his toes and dashed toward Meng Qi as fast as a gust of wind.
Mengqi did not try to escape. You Huanduo's sprinting ability was far better than a horse's. Running away would only expose his back to You Huanduo.
Meng Qi was a little nervous. His "Nine Strategies Beyond the Swords" had finally entered the rudiments after so many rounds of practice, but he had only grasped the first few moves. He had yet to master the Palm Breaking Move and the Qi Breaking Move. Facing You Huanduo, who had a strong Inner Force and was good at using both palms, he was not confident.
However, at this critical moment of life and death, he had to fight with all his might! You Huanduo would not let him go just because he begged for mercy.
"Haha, little bald ass, let's see how you can turn the tables today!" You Huanduo was in a good mood and mocked from afar. "Or let's see whether my Violent Sand Super Force is better or your swordsmanship is better?"
He was sure that Mengqi had no Inner Force, so he planned to use his Inner Force to deal with any changes!
Thinking that he was about to kill the little bald ass who had killed An Guoxie, Yuan Mengzhi, and destroyed the Evil Ridge, he was excited. After this was done, the Ancestor would not be stingy with his praise and reward. He might even have the opportunity to learn one of the 18 Slaps of Haunter.
He usually frowned and looked like an honest farmer, but that was just his appearance. If he didn't have ruthlessness, how could he intimidate his bandits? As a master on the Ranking List of Young Masters and the leader of the 72 bandits, he had defeated them many times, how could he be less arrogant?
Seeing that You Huanduo was getting closer and closer, Meng Qi held his Long Sword across his chest and restrained his willpower. He concentrated his Spirit and Qi, eliminating all distracting thoughts. He was ready to risk his life with Nine Strategies Beyond the Swords and Lightning Changes.
This time, he forgot about the future, forgot about the danger, forgot about his martial arts being destroyed, and forgot about everything around him. In his eyes, there was only You Huanduo's steps and movements. They were broken down one by one and restored to their most basic components.
In this state, Meng of Qi had forgotten. His Golden Of Golden Golden Technique, and his Golden Qi., the Meng. "Qi of. of Meng Qi of of of Qi.
Starting from the first stage, his Golden Bell Shield rose steadily and soon reached the consummation of the fifth stage. In just a short moment, his Inner Force was completely restored!
In the face of this unexpected situation, Meng Qi was shocked and stunned. He immediately understood something. His eyes seemed to be covered in mist, and he muttered to himself,
God. of of. of..
At Jade Gate Pass, Xuan Bei walked into Kong Jian's room.
At Jade Gate Pass, Xuan Bei walked into Kong Jian's room.
Kong Jian's white eyebrows moved slightly. "You didn't send Zhen Ding to a sect close to our temple?"
Kong Jian's white eyebrows moved slightly. He asked doubtfully, "You didn't send Zhen Ding to a sect close to our temple?"
Horse bandits might be lurking nearby. Although they had not found them yet, they had to be on guard. Therefore, after sending Zhen Ding to Wu Liang, he couldn't just leave. He had to send him to a sect close to or dependent on Shaolin Temple. They had to escort him to the hinterland of the Central Plains and away from the horse bandits.
The reason why he didn't mention it before was that the one who sent Zhen Ding was Xuan Bei, who had always been protecting him. Kong Jian felt that Xuan Bei would definitely arrange it.
Xuan Bei suddenly knelt on the ground and said painfully, "Uncle Master, I have sinned."
"Xuan Bei, what crime have you committed?" Kong Jian frowned slightly.
Xuan Bei raised his head. His expression was melancholy. His facial muscles were slightly twisted. "Since I entered Shaolin Temple, I have been devoted to Buddhism. But I can't change my Jianghu habits. I can't bear to do this today, so I didn't destroy Zhen Ding's Kung Fu. I only slightly sealed him. As long as he concentrates his Energy, Qi, Spirit, and Will, he will naturally recover. Please punish me."
"If you do this, you will definitely be deprived of the opportunity to practice in the stupa." Kong Jian didn't get angry. He sighed and said, "Why do you have to do this? You have protected Zhen Ding time and time again. It has gone beyond the normal relationship between a master and a disciple. What is the reason? "
Xuan Bei took a light breath and a smile appeared on his face. "Although my whole family was killed, I have a younger sister. She was willful in her early years and volunteered to be a concubine. She married into the Su family of Luoyang. My father cut off all ties with her, so she escaped. I have checked. She died three years ago. Zhen Ding was her son."
"And, and …" Xuan Bei's expression suddenly became absent-minded. He seemed to be reminiscing and imagining. His eyes shone with love. "If my children didn't die, they would be their age and appearance now."
Kong Jian let out a long sigh. "You are also an idiot."
…
With his Kung Fu restored, Mengqi was no longer nervous. With his current strength and the situation in the Central Plains, he could run away even if he couldn't defeat You Huanduo.
Moreover, this guy really thought that he had been destroyed by his master!
He restrained his emotions and reached out with his right hand to grab the handle of his blade. He tore the cloth strip and pulled out a dark red Buddhist Commandment Blade. White steam rose around the blade, making it look quite hot.
You Huanduo was not surprised at Mengqi's action. All the previous battles had shown that the little bald ass's bladesmanship was better than his sword art. He had mastered at least one Exterior bladesmanship, which was much better than his sword art which was only close to Dharma and Logos. However, without Inner Force, how could he activate the blade intent? Even if he used all the changes, it was only at the level of enlightening the Apertures, which was not as good as the sword art he had displayed before!
He did not laugh at Mengqi's dizziness in the face of a desperate situation and his wrong choice. Because Mengqi had used his left hand to wield the sword, which did not contradict his right hand to wield the blade. Therefore, he thought that Mengqi was desperate.
However, without Inner Force, what was the use of desperate fighting?
He did not enter the attack range of the Buddhist Commandment Blade and the long sword. Instead, he brushed the edge and slapped with his palm. The scorching wind seemed to evaporate Mengqi's blood, not giving him a chance to counterattack.
Seeing You Huanduo's palm, Mengqi activated his Golden Bell Shield to resist the palm wind. His restrained Energy, Qi, Spirit, and Will burst out, and the Red Sun Evil Blade slashed out!
A blade light that was neither dazzling nor dim lit up in You Huanduo's pupils, reminding him of his feeble resistance.
With one palm, the little bald ass was killed. The Ancestor appreciated him and taught him supreme skills. Later, he stepped into the Exterior, mastered the 18 Slaps of Haunter, killed Ze Luoju and Yan Shiche, assassinated the Ancestor, married Yan Shiche's daughter, inherited Hahler, conquered everywhere, unified the Immensity Sea and the God-burying Desert, and reached the peak of his life.
All of this was so real because it rose directly from the bottom of his heart. You Huanduo was immersed in it.
Suddenly, he felt a pain in his throat and stopped breathing. When he came to his senses, he saw the dark red Buddhist Commandment Blade on his neck.
An Exterior bladesmanship?
Wasn't his Kung Fu destroyed? How did he activate the Blade Will?
You Huanduo was shocked and angry, but he dared not delay. The bones in his neck cracked and turned into a snake, following the direction of the Buddhist Commandment Blade. At the same time, he grabbed the blade with his right hand, not daring to tremble even though blood was flowing and his bones were exposed.
His strength was above An Guoxie's!
At this moment, he finally saw Mengqi's skin flowing with dark gold, with a sense of solemnity and tranquility.
Damn! His Kung Fu was not destroyed!
Damn, he fell into the bald ass's trap!
As a cautious and intelligent person, his first thought was that he had fallen into the trap, and then he thought of summoning the Sky Thunder.
Mengqi mercilessly saw through You Huanduo's flaws and raised the long sword in his left hand. It was both the Nine Strategies Beyond the Swords and Yama's Invitation!
The Nine Strategies Beyond the Swords did not have specific movements. When attacking, as long as one followed the path and did not waste time, he could hide any changes.
The pure and condensed sword light lit up, as if it had escaped from the Death Qi. It was launched later but arrived first, directly stabbing at You Huanduo's mid-brows!
At the same time, Mengqi's mid-brows swelled and his spirit became a thorn, striking out fiercely.
After holding the Red Sun Evil Blade, You Huanduo's intuition from many years of fighting made him feel the danger of death. Without any hesitation, his bones softened, and with a cracking sound, he turned into a pile of "mud". Although he suddenly felt dizzy, Mengqi's sword light just happened to pierce through his ear and cut off half of it!
You Huanduo resisted the sharp pain and "slid" out of the range of Mengqi's sword and saber. Then he propped up his bones and turned around to escape!
He was afraid that this was a trap set by the bald ass of Shaolin, and he was also afraid that Mengqi would summon the Sky Thunder. He was also frightened by the continuous attacks, so he did not dare to risk his life and only wanted to escape.
Activating the Violent Sand Super Force, he ran as fast as the wind. Meanwhile, Mengqi activated Wind-god's Legs and followed closely behind him. He still had the ability of Yama's Invitation and the Ananda Oath-breaking Bladesmanship. If he did not take advantage of You Huanduo's panic to kill him, he would not be able to vent his hatred!
You Huanduo rushed to the riverside and was about to jump into the water to escape. Suddenly, a clear and pure sword light attacked from a passenger ship. It was the same as the one Mengqi had displayed before, but more deadly, more terrifying, and more unrepentant!
The sword light dissipated, and he continued to run. But after a few steps, he suddenly fell forward, and blood dyed the ground red.
The beautiful girl in the light yellow dress stroked her long sword and looked at Mengqi with a smile. "The Violent Sand Super Force is just so-so."
Mengqi was surprised and happy. "Zhiwei, why are you here?"
"After I left the mountain to travel, I thought that if you did not succeed, you would probably be taken to Hahler by An Guoxie. So I traveled north and west, planning to meet him. I didn't expect to meet you here." Jiang Zhiwei glanced at You Huanduo. "What happened?"
Mengqi roughly told her what had happened. When he was finished, he turned around and faced the Jade Gate Pass. He kowtowed from the bottom of his heart and said in a sorrowful voice, "Master, I have been unfilial. I only hope that I can repay you in the future!"
Jiang Zhiwei quietly watched him do all this. She sighed and comforted him. "There is no right or wrong in this matter. It's just that you don't agree with the philosophy of Buddhism. No one can blame anyone else. If it were in the Sword Washing Pavilion, this kind of thing would just be copying scriptures to purify the soul."
"Master Xuan Bei is not a person who will hide things. If you are with me, it will be quite conspicuous. I'm afraid that the Law Enforcing Monks will find out. It's better to go to Senior Brother Zhang or Senior Brother Qi and live in peace for a year or so. When you grow taller and more intelligent, you can come out to Jianghu."
Mengqi nodded and agreed with Jiang Zhiwei's opinion. Then he took out the black fur and asked Jiang Zhiwei to identify it. Unfortunately, there was nothing. Then they searched You Huanduo's body. They found nothing but a bag of gems and some silver.
Since he was already rich, Mengqi did not care much about these belongings. He directly threw them to Jiang Zhiwei.
"Alright, I just happen to have more travel expenses." Jiang Zhiwei did not refuse and accepted it generously. However, she did not dare to waste Mengqi's time because she was afraid that the Shaolin monks would chase after them. She smiled and said goodbye. "I saw from afar that your swordsmanship has improved a lot. Let's have a competition next time."
Mengqi was free. Except for secretly making up his mind to repay his Master, he had nothing else to worry about in the main world. So he laughed and turned around, humming, "The sea laughs, and the tide surges on both sides …"
Looking at his back, Jiang Zhiwei could not help but laugh. "Where did this folk song come from …"
"The waves wash away the mortal world, how many do you know …" In the distance, Mengqi's figure disappeared, but the singing was still faintly heard.
Jiang Zhiwei turned around and muttered, "Listen carefully, it's quite artistic …"
…
Luoyang, the headquarters of the Sect of Six-Fans.
The square outside was spacious and had a screen wall covered with yellow paper.
Many idle commoners gathered to see if there would be any changes to the Heaven, Earth, and Man List today.
Not long after, the constables of Six Fan School came out and walked to the screen wall of the Ranking List of Young Masters. They tore off all the paper in front and pasted it again.
"Such a big change?" Many people were shocked. Could it be that someone suddenly rose up and changed all the rankings?
The first nine rankings remained unchanged, but there were some new achievements. At the tenth place, someone said in surprise, "Jiang Zhiwei of Sword Washing Pavilion, 'Fairy of the Extinctive Sword', 'Beautiful Yama', killed 'Evil Sword Sunlight' Kang Dahai … killed 'Rising Yama' You Huanduo with one stroke, ranked tenth on the Ranking List of Young Masters …"
"It's normal for her to rise. It's said that many Seven Apertures and Eight Apertures disciples of Sword Washing Pavilion who went out to travel said that they were no match for Junior Sister Jiang Zhiwei. Now that she has officially left the mountain to travel in Jianghu, her ranking will naturally rise," another person explained.
"That makes sense." No one objected to the rise of Jiang Zhiwei's ranking.
Yellow paper was pasted one after another. Most of them were acquaintances, so no one said much. Until the thirty-third place, someone exclaimed, "Who's Zhen Ding?"
Everyone looked at the yellow paper and saw the following words:
"Name: Calls himself Meng, formerly known as Zhen Ding."
"Kung Fu: Four Apertures opened, fifth or sixth pass of Golden Bell Shield, left sword and right saber, exquisite swordsmanship, bladesmanship acquired the Gist of Trueness of the first move of Ananda Oath-breaking Bladesmanship, has the means to summon Sky Thunder."
"Record: Killed 'White-headed Vulture' An Guoxie, summoned Sky Thunder to kill 'Green Jade Hand' Yuan Mengzhi, broke through Evil Ridge, and defeated 'Rising Yama' You Huanduo."
"Ranking: 33rd."
"Nickname: Thunder Blade Furious Monk, Reckless Monk."
"Identity: Abandoned disciple of Shaolin Temple."
