Matsuoka quietly sneaked into Jinniutan with five underground secret sect monks.
The group of people did not stick to the bottom of the sea, but swam in the middle of the sea, patrolling back and forth.
The mechanism can generally cover a radius of dozens of feet, and the height does not exceed thirty feet, so there is no need to worry about triggering the mechanism set up by Chenghua Zong.
However, underwater fighting is different from that on land or in the air, and is more advantageous underwater.
Matsuoka Yi relied on his powerful spiritual consciousness to detect farther distances, but he was unexpectedly attacked by someone.
He guessed that Zhao Lin must be seizing the time to set up mechanisms and must stop it as soon as possible, otherwise Zhutan will soon change hands.
Not to mention killing Zhao Lin by then, even Zhutan will not be able to enter.
After walking forward for a while, Matsuoka found a person in the water not far away, with a familiar aura...
It's Zhao Lin!
Matsuoka's heart was pounding and he stopped immediately.
Several monks were confused and just about to ask, Matsuoka immediately made a silence gesture.
"Zhao Lin is in front!"
Matsuoka set up a barrier around the area and whispered.
"Zhao Lin! What is he doing here?"
A monk named Domaru asked in surprise.
"If I guess correctly, people from the Chenghua Sect are setting up traps below, and Zhao Lin is guarding the top to prevent us from sneak attacks."
Matsuoka twirled his beard and said with a sneer.
"Shall we surround him together?"
Several Earth Dark Sect monks took out their eyebrow knives.
"Don't be busy yet."
Matsuoka waved his hand to stop him, thought for a while, and said: "This person is much stronger than you. You can't help much if you go there. And if there are more people, I will be afraid of him."
"You go down below and cut off his escape route. If anyone from the Chenghua Sect comes to help, they should all be blocked by me."
"I'll deal with Zhao Lin alone!"
Matsuoka previously felt that the advantage was on his side and did not want to fight Zhao Lin head-on. He was already old and any slight injury would damage Daoji.
But now the situation has reversed and we have to take action.
"yes!"
The five monks received the order and swam downward through the water.
Matsuoka held the wild sword in his hand, tried his best to restrain his breath, and slowly approached Zhao Lin.
"Want to come over for a sneak attack?"
Zhao Lin had actually discovered Matsuoka through echolocation a long time ago and deliberately pretended not to know.
If Matsuoka and others went down to stop Sun Jue and others from setting up their formation, he would immediately issue a warning, but it seemed that Matsuoka was obviously coming after him.
In this case, Zhao Lin decided to take advantage of the situation.
Matsuoka approached about fifty feet away from Zhao Lin, took a deep breath, and suddenly accelerated forward. The wild sword turned into a brilliant white light, splitting the sea water and slashing towards Zhao Lin.
Zhao Lin was already on guard, waved his hand and formed an ice blade to meet him.
Although the Zangetsu Sword is more powerful, its control speed is a bit slower due to its weight. It is because of this speed that the Zangetsu Sword can never keep up with Matsuoka's wild sword.
So this time Zhao Lin directly formed the ice knife fighting technique.
boom!
The ice knife collided with the wild knife, blocking the wild knife's offensive, and turned into countless ice shards.
"It turns out to be the old thief Matsuoka!"
Zhao Lin shouted loudly, stretched out his fingers, formed a water demon fist, and struck Matsuoka.
When Matsuoka heard Zhao Lin calling him an old thief, he couldn't help but became furious. He shook his sleeves, shot out a ray of white light, and shouted: "Water Mirror Technique!"
A water mirror condensed and stood in front of him.
The water demon fist hit the water mirror and immediately turned invisible. Then a stream of water vapor was released from the water mirror, turning into a giant water-shaped fist and hitting Zhao Lin.
This was not over yet. Matsuoka was worried that Zhao Lin would escape to the bottom of the sea, so he commanded the wild sword to turn suddenly and stab Zhao Lin's legs from below.
Facing the attacks of the Water Demon Fist and the Wild Sword, Zhao Lin's face changed color, he grabbed the Zangetsu Sword to block the Wild Sword, then dodged to avoid the Water Demon Fist, turned around and fled in another direction.
The direction in which Zhao Lin fled was exactly where Sun Jue had deployed thousands of water spears.
It is too difficult to kill Matsuoka based on strength alone. The only way to do it is with the help of mechanisms. The only problem is how to trick the old thief.
When Matsuoka saw Zhao Lin sleeping under the sea, he immediately thought that Zhao Lin might want to lure him into the agency, and he immediately became vigilant.
His consciousness locked tightly on Zhao Lin and pursued him along the route Zhao Lin had taken, preferring to take detours rather than take shortcuts.
One of the two ran away, the other chased, and the distance quickly closed.
More than ten breaths later, Zhao Lin saw the rock in front of the mechanism, suddenly slowed down, grabbed an escape talisman, and slapped it with a wave of his hand.
With a "bang" sound, the talisman exploded, releasing a cloud of black smoke.
"Escape Talisman?"
Matsuoka also stopped and stared at the black mist with squinted eyes.
Neither rushing in nor releasing magic weapons to attack, he wanted to see what tricks Zhao Lin could do.
Not long after, the black mist dissipated, and Zhao Lin's figure appeared again. He glanced at Matsuoka, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and swam forward again in the water.
"Watch where you run!"
Matsuoka sneered and chased after him at full speed, the wild knife in his hand ready to give Zhao Lin a fatal blow.
As long as Zhao Linge is killed, the remaining Chenghua Sect monks will be meat on the chopping board and can be slaughtered by themselves.
At this moment, there was a sudden "buzzing" sound under the feet, causing a strong vibration.
The surrounding sea water squeezed in, and Matsuoka was surprised to find that he was struggling to move and felt huge resistance!
"There is a mechanism!"
Matsuoka secretly thought that something was wrong, and a huge shadow passed over his heart. He never thought that he had fallen into the trap.
"No, Zhao Lin is also in the agency. Isn't he afraid of death?"
Matsuoka's mind was racing, and he suddenly thought of something. He turned around suddenly, only to see Zhao Lin striding toward him in front of a rock behind him.
Zhao Lin made a secret with his hand, and a crystal clear, rapidly rotating ice hammer rose above his head!
"What, Raikage clone?"
Matsuoka exclaimed loudly in disbelief.
Thunder Shadow Clone is a unique spell of our sect. Because it is a thunder spell, few people practice it. How come Zhao Lin also learned it?
This is impossible!
Without enough time to think about it, he quickly turned around and fled back, like a frightened bird.
Zhao Lin had just used the cover of the black mist to use the thunder shadow clone, letting the clone escape in front to lure the enemy, while the main body used the breath-holding technique to hide on the side of the reef.
In fact, Zhao Lin had the opportunity to sneak attack from behind while Matsuoka was pursuing him, but he could not kill Matsuoka this way. He waited for a while until Matsuoka entered the attack range of the agency, and then showed up to cast the spell.
"Ice Whirling Hammer!"
Zhao Lin's eyes flashed with coldness, he pointed a little, and the ice hammer hit Matsuoka head and face.
The clone was not idle either and released a trap technique to block Matsuoka's path.
Matsuoka was in a dilemma, feeling despair in his heart, knowing that he would definitely die today.
Thinking of this, he glared fiercely and gritted his teeth and said: "Even if I die, I still have someone to support me!"
After saying that, he simply stood still and slashed at Zhao Lin's clone with his wild sword.
boom!
The mechanism was activated, and countless thick water spears shot out overwhelmingly, instantly engulfing the clones of Matsuoka and Zhao Lin. (End of chapter)
