(Author's note: This part of the Battle of Fame will not be too short, so this short chapter will probably last until about twenty.)
Where Wen Liang and Yan Jing were looking, the light of the second beam of light had become much weaker, and the man was wearing black robes, so it was difficult to distinguish the man's figure against the background of the night sky.
This person followed the person pretending to be Yan Shuang and found the real Yan Shuang. From then on, he had been staring at Yan Shuang from afar, watching the casual cultivators rushing to kill her, and watching her spiritual sword cold. Mang boldly went to kill those casual cultivators, and saw that several of her companions had been protecting her. The man in black had been watching calmly and quietly, until Yan Shuang's pure moon-white dress Peach blossoms were blooming on the bed. At this moment, he saw Yanxuan's figure spinning and flashing in a series. While avoiding the siege of the casual cultivators, he frequently drew his sword with gleaming cold light. Although all the casual cultivators who could get close to her were killed by her without exception. The sword killed, but the man in black kept staring until he found that Yan Shuang's movement seemed to be slow and heavy, and even her sword's snow-white brilliance was weakened when it flew out. After a while, right in front of Yan Shuang, behind the casual cultivators who were closely approaching, there were still layers of casual cultivators pouring in. It was obvious that Yan Shuang was beginning to feel a little overwhelmed in the face of so many casual cultivators. Well, at least she was tired!
Then there is a chance!
The man in black looked around again. He knew that there were still a few people who had not shown up but were waiting for the opportunity like him. Some people must have waited until the last moment when Yan Shuang was most exhausted before taking action, but he couldn't say There must be someone who can't wait any longer and wants to take action now. This opportunity cannot be let go, let alone given to others. Moreover, after a while, the Five Spirit disciples from behind came and killed the casual cultivators here. After so many Under the protection of others, if he kills Yan Shuang again, he may not have a better chance.
Thinking of this, the man in black made up his mind and moved.
…
As expected, the movements of the man in black attracted a few hidden glances, and those gazes kept staring at the movements of the man in black, watching him approach Yan Shuang diagonally from top to bottom.
The figure of the man in black slanted downwards. It was not fast at first, but became faster and faster. However, compared with other monks with superb movement skills, at such a high speed, the man in black actually made no sound at all while flying. No, that's why it didn't attract the attention of the fighting parties below. As he got closer to Yan Shuang, his figure was highlighted. At this time, this man's long black hair was pulled straight by the wind. He only raised his head slightly and looked at the figure in front and below. The little figure of Yan Shuang crashed into him like a black light!
Li Shuang was dodging back with a cold face at this time. She had just killed two more casual cultivators. What she was dodging was the blood drops that flew up when they were pierced by her sword. However, she seemed to be really tired. Although there was no blood stain on her head and face, there was another red stain on her dress. Moreover, at this time, Yan Shuang was unaware of the danger coming from the sky at high speed, and all her thoughts were focused on it. When it comes to dealing with the rogue cultivators in front of you.
The man in black seemed to really understand the method of assassination, which was fast, swift and silent. Yan Shuang's performance was seen in his eyes, and a cold smile made the corners of his mouth turn up slightly.
However, if he is noticed and then blocked halfway, the assassination will undoubtedly fail and the opportunity will be lost. If he doesn't want to give up, he can only rush into the battle group and rely on means to kill Yan Shuang.
"Be careful above!" Someone suddenly shouted in the chaos. After using several swords to force the cultivator in front of him to retreat, the man held two swords filled with cold light and flew into the sky like a big bird, facing the attack. Yan Shuang's people rushed over!
It's Li Jian!
The five of them, Li Jian, chose to stick together in front of this group of casual cultivators who were almost all higher than themselves. The five of them got together to deal with these casual cultivators. The five of them had been together for a long time, and there was always something wrong. There was a bit of a tacit understanding, so they were able to hold on securely in the face of these casual cultivators swarming up.
Li Jian noticed the man in black rushing towards Yan Shuang soon after. He raised his head and looked around for a few times. After confirming that the man was directed at Yan Shuang, he greeted several companions, and then shouted and walked towards Yan Shuang. The man in black rushed over. He walked so suddenly that several casual cultivators who had been entangled with him were stunned for a moment. When they were about to rush over, they were knocked back by a large black shield, and then were immediately hit by a burning knife. Guang was so shocked that he screamed repeatedly. After the sword was struck, Yanxuan looked up with some worry.
Li Jian's whole body was filled with sword energy. During the chaotic battle, his senses were naturally fully released, so he was aware of the danger falling from the sky. When he sensed someone rushing down from above to harm Yan Shuang, Li Jian was sure There are two things. The first is that the attacker is a woman. This is not surprising. There are many women in today's casual practice. The second is that the attacker's movement is... It was the fastest one he had ever seen so far. It was not only fast but also silent. No one below, including Yan Shuang, could notice it, so Li Jian felt that this incoming person was full of danger. In order to stop her, Li Jian also used his physical skills to almost the extreme. When he rushed up from below, there was a whistling sound, and the two green bamboo spiritual swords in his hands were dragged out by him. Cold light!
If this person can rush to the vicinity of Yan Shuang without being discovered, based on this person's current physical skills, just in terms of sneak attacks, even if Yan Shuang is also a sword cultivator, in Li Jian's opinion, she must be the same It's bad luck!
The man in black who rushed down was no less surprised than Li Jian. After hearing someone below shouting "Be careful above", the man in black's heart sank. How could he have been discovered!
She was so proud of her physical skills and concealment, that she thought this was a sneak attack. By the time Yan Shuang discovered her, it was already too late, and she could only watch her sword coming through her body, and she was filled with hatred on the spot. But he never expected that in such a fierce, noisy and chaotic situation, the Five Spirit disciples and the casual cultivators were all furious. How could anyone find him?
Following Li Jian's words "Be careful above", Yan Shuang was naturally attracted to him. He watched Li Jian rush up with two long rays of cold light, and there was another person in the direction of him who was silently but swiftly rising in the air. Coming toward him like lightning, Yan Shuang immediately understood that someone was going to take advantage of the chaos to sneak up on him. He was so entangled by the casual cultivators that he couldn't be distracted, so naturally he couldn't notice it. However, the little sword cultivator was clever and unexpectedly Found that guy.
It won't be just this time, the danger tonight is far from over.
Just as she thought of this, another sword light rushed around her, and a figure followed Li Jian behind a bright white sword light.
It's Gu Yuan!
Like Yan Shuang, he only discovered the person who was attacking from the air after being reminded by Li Jian. When he saw that the person who was attacking was as silent as a shooting star, he knew that the person must be what Senior Brother Fan said. He had seen a master among casual cultivators, and since he was a master, he naturally couldn't miss him. It was probably difficult for the junior brother to stop him, so he stood up to fight against that guy.
The sneak attack failed! The man in black who was rushing down was secretly annoyed. If she changed direction and escaped at this time, she would be able to do it with her speed and the current situation, but that would be too ugly. It seemed that she could only It's like taking people's lives with sneak attacks.
Anyway, sneak attacks and assassinations are just a way to kill people. Now that this method can't be used, let's give it a try!
Li Jian met a pair of cold black eyes. She was indeed a woman. She was dressed in black clothes. Her black hair was pulled back by the wind. Her face was fair and her appearance was ordinary, but her dark eyes were the most eye-catching. , full of icy coldness, staring at Li Jian getting closer and closer!
The man in black didn't slow down. She came down from the top, and with her body movement and falling momentum, she hit Li Jian like a lightless lightning.
When she was about to collide with Li Jian, Li Jian couldn't help but draw out her sword. It was better not to collide with this person. But at this moment, the man in black who rushed down took action first. She Staring coldly in front of him, Li Jian suddenly drew his sword, and with his unstoppable momentum, he thrust his sword towards Li Jian's face!
It turned out to be a sword cultivator!
Li Jian was shocked. When he rushed towards this person, he was still thinking about how this woman would deal with him. He thought that the other party might use powerful spells in desperation, or attack him all at once like Brother Qian. Many powerful spiritual weapons came to him, and he even thought that this person was eager to kill Yan Shuang, and that he might use his body shape to avoid entangled with him and instead go around or bump into him, but he never expected that the opponent would just use a sword. With the speed and power of the sword, that person must be a sword cultivator!
What surprised Li Jian even more was that this man seemed to have the same level of swordsmanship as himself, and he was also a swordsman who was good at close combat. Not only that, when this woman stabbed her with a sword, there was no luster on the spiritual sword in her hand, it was just a long black sword.
There were three sword cultivators present, Yan Shuang, Gu Yuan and Li Jian. The spiritual swords used by these three people were different, and their methods of practice were also different, but one thing was the same, that is, as long as they use their own hands to When fighting an enemy with their own spiritual swords, no matter how many spiritual swords they have in their hands, or what material their spiritual swords are made of, they will be filled with aura and cold energy when they use them. Take Yan Shuang for example, when her sword is released, it is a cold white sword light. Although Gu Yuan and Li Jian's spiritual swords were made of different materials, they both had incandescent sword light. For example, among the people who are currently fighting like a pot of porridge, as long as they are using spirit swords, whether they are the Five Spirit disciples or those casual cultivators, their eyes are shining with cold light and dazzling.
Only for this man, when he stabbed Li Jian with a sword of unparalleled power, there was no trace of brilliance on his spiritual sword.
What is this...
At this time, the sword of the man in black was almost in front of him, and the man's speed was already unstoppable. With such a sword, Li Jian naturally did not dare to use his sword directly, so he cleverly stepped aside and used his left hand dagger. He diverted the man's sword to the side, and almost at the same time, the long sword in his right hand slashed the man's sword-holding arm with a burst of white light!
While doing this, Li Jian thought that the lack of light in the spirit sword would prevent anyone from noticing it when he took action. In addition to the rare speed and silence of this personal method, could it be that it was just so that the assassination could be silent and concealed and deadly?
It is not easy to do this, it must have taken a lot of effort, and these methods are most useful when attacking others sneakily. Could it be that this person specializes in assassination?
Is there any special method for assassinating others in the spiritual world?
When Li Jian thought of this, the man in black seemed a little surprised by Li Jian's response. She looked at it for a long time and knew that Li Jian was also a swordsman, but the advantage she took with this sword thrust was her body at this time. The magic was already unstoppable. Using this force, she could use her sword to get twice the result with half the effort. Even if she couldn't hurt the boy, she would still be able to get through. Therefore, she thought that if she stabbed the boy with her sword, the boy on the other side would definitely get out of the way, but she didn't expect it. The boy who rushed to intercept him was not only fast, but also had good eyesight, and his shots were faster! Not only was he able to dodge his own sword, but he also took the opportunity to counterattack him. Judging from the speed of his sword, if he didn't dodge, he could get past him, but the arm holding the sword would be chopped off by him immediately. broken!
No matter what, she didn't want to give up an arm, so she twisted her waist at high speed. Just when the white light of Li Jian's spiritual sword was about to strike, her body moved out in an almost incredible way, narrowly missing Li Jian. The sharp edge of the sword even allowed Li Jian to pass the obstacle, and still rushed towards Yan Shuang below.
Just as the man in black gave way to Li Jian, another incandescent sword light struck from below and pierced the man in black. It seemed that if the man in black did not dodge, he would be chopped off by Li Jian's arm, but this sword light would escape her. If she dodged, she would be penetrated by this incandescent sword light!
It was Gu Yuan who followed behind and took action.
Senior Brother Gu had extraordinary eyesight. He seemed to have expected that Li Jian's attack would force the man to change direction. His spiritual sword was not facing the man, but the man was avoiding Li Jian's sword. As soon as the direction changed, Gu Yuan's sword was almost in front of the man. Under the light on the sword, the man's dark eyes also shone with two cold lights.
The man in black suddenly drew his sword. Although the sword was not a straight thrust, it knocked Gu Yuan's sword away diagonally. However, the speed with which she drew the sword made Li Jian, who turned around and looked over, shrink his pupils: "This person has come out." The sword is too fast!
With a "ding" sound, Gu Yuan's spiritual sword was knocked away, and the white sword light flew out in a swirl.
At the same time as the "ding" sound, Gu Yuan was also shocked. When a monk used his spiritual weapon to fight against the enemy, the monk himself could almost feel the same feeling. This was especially true for a sword cultivator. That spiritual sword was It was something he had been using for many years, and when he struck it, he was even more connected with his mind. Therefore, Gu Yuan just held the hilt of a sword and struck a sword with the man in black without any skill, and both of them touched each other's depth seven times. Seven or eighty-eight, what surprised Gu Yuan was that the person who sneaked up on Yan Shuang was definitely not inferior to him in cultivation, and he could appreciate the power of her hasty sword attack just now. It was still above him!
He is indeed a master!
An instant ago, after the man dodged Li Jian's sword, and before Gu Yuan's sword was knocked away, Li Jian's figure suddenly changed. He was facing the man in black and was rushing upward diagonally. She was flying quickly, and the man in black was about to pass by her. Li Jian refused to let her go. After he slashed the air with his sword, he turned around and flew backwards in the air. Then his speed suddenly slowed down. , and immediately after stopping, Li Jian suddenly accelerated again. He could see that Mu Xiufeng's senior brother could not stop the man in black!
When Li Jian accelerated, the man's figure was also slowed down a bit by Gu Yuan's sword!
Not only that, when the man in black passed by Gu Yuan, he hesitated for a moment. It was really annoying that two sword cultivators intercepted him. Should he kill one of them...
At this time, Gu Yuan's sword was also going away and returning, drawing an arc in the air and quickly returning to his side. At this time, Gu Yuan also knew that the man in black was murderous towards him, and in his hand Although there was no movement, under the guidance of his gaze, the spiritual sword dragged a series of shadows in the air and stabbed diagonally from above the man in black.
The man in black did not expect that the young man opposite had such exquisite sword control skills. There was no movement at all in his hands, but his spiritual sword stabbed at her again, and this time it was more powerful. As a last resort, she could only change her body shape. , stood up straight from the downward dive, and faced the incoming sword head-on.
Li Jian was originally unlikely to catch up with the man in black, but it was Gu Yuan's second sword that gave him the chance.
With a "dang" sound, the man in black took out his sword again and slashed away the flying spiritual sword, but her body was almost stopped by Gu Yuan's sword. This time, Gu Yuan's spiritual sword was touched. The power contained in it is much greater than that of the first sword!
When the man in black was forced to stop by Gu Yuan's sword, she was staring more warily at the sword in the air that had just been knocked out by her, guarding against another attack by the sword, but then she turned around as the expression on her face changed. Then the sword in his hand stabbed out frequently!
Gu Yuan saw it. Just as the man in black knocked away his spiritual sword, he saw the figure of Junior Brother Mu Xiufeng galloping towards him. He was chasing after him like an eagle swooping down on a swan in the sky. When he reached the top of the man, the long sword in his hand was shining with white light and he was about to stab him down! Next, the man in black turned back, swung the spiritual sword in his hand and exchanged swords with Li Jian who was chasing him. The sound of "clinking, clanging" spiritual swords clashing was heard quickly.
If it weren't for Senior Brother Gu Yuan's sword, Li Jian wouldn't have caught up so quickly. This time he was attacking her opponent by surprise. Although he had the upper hand at the beginning and stabbed her with his sword frequently, he I didn't expect the man in black to react so quickly, but the man in black almost turned his face and blocked his attack with his sword. A spiritual sword not only resisted all the attacks from his two swords, but also He was able to return two of his own swords in the gap between his two swords. These two swords were like poisonous snakes spitting messages, causing Li Jian to panic and resist for a moment. The man leaned back and shot towards Yan again like a shooting star. Frost shoots away.
Gu Yuan had already retracted his sword and was ready to attack. When he saw the man in black escaping from the young junior brother again, he immediately changed his tactics, and the spirit sword emitted a burst of white sword light and stabbed at the flying figure's back!
Li Jian was blocked and stagnated for a moment. He secretly said to himself, "What a powerful guy!" and immediately pursued him again!
Gu Yuan stared at his sword. He noticed the man's sideways glance and knew that the other man had seen his sword. Then he watched the man wave his arm seemingly casually, and seemed to want to volley it. His own spiritual sword flew away. When he saw this, the corners of Gu Yuan's mouth slightly curled up, and a sneer emerged.
That person was indeed preparing to knock the flying spirit sword away again, but she didn't expect that the incoming spirit sword quickly changed as she held the hilt of the sword to compete with her. Her swordsmanship was average, and she gave way with a flick of her wrist. Not only did she cut through the air with her sword, but she also took the opportunity to find her weak point, and then stabbed straight at her!
Speaking of which, such a change is not a great means for ordinary disciples. As long as they practice the art of controlling objects more purely, they can do it. For example, Qian Chao, this matter is easy for him. But it is very difficult for a sword cultivator, because the sword cultivator uses not the art of controlling objects but the art of controlling swords to control his own spiritual sword. The first thing a sword cultivator needs is to control his sword as fast as lightning to defeat the enemy. At that time, before others could react, his spiritual sword had already struck him, so many swordsmen also worked hard on the word "quick". What they focused on was to draw the sword quickly and retract the sword quickly, such as Yun Xi who had fought with Li Jian. , she is like this, if a sword hits the air, she will immediately retract the sword and stab again. One more thing to say here, even though Qian Chao is very sophisticated in how to control the spiritual sword, the sword he controls is far less powerful than the sword of an ordinary swordsman. This is the art of controlling objects and the art of controlling swords. The biggest difference.
Only this Gu Yuan, I don’t know how much effort he has put into the sword-controlling skills. He has been able to achieve a level of mastery in controlling the spirit sword. He is also considered to be the best among Mu Xiufeng’s Qi-refining sword cultivators. When he saw that the opponent was about to cut his own sword, he immediately flipped his sword through the air. Not only did he avoid the opponent's sword, but he also found the opponent's empty door. He was overjoyed and he immediately used his sword to stab directly.
It's a pity that Gu Yuan's sword did not pierce the man's body. His sword control skills were exquisite, but the man in black's body skills were also even more exquisite. After finding that the sword could not be resisted, the man's body unexpectedly followed. With the sword that was thrust straight at him, he suddenly changed direction and retreated backwards. He never let the cold sword edge penetrate his body. The fact that he could make such a change while flying at high speed shows that this person In terms of physical skills, he is far superior to ordinary disciples.
Finally, after retreating for a while, the man found an opportunity again. He struck Gu Yuan's sword hard with a "ding" and knocked it away again. But just as she breathed a sigh of relief, By that time, Li Jian had already taken the opportunity to catch up again, which really made the man in black angry. He originally saw the right time for a sneak attack. He thought he could succeed with one blow and then immediately escape thousands of miles away, but now he was beaten by these two guys. It’s okay to keep pestering!
At this time, the man was almost forced to stop in the air in order to hit Gu Yuan's sword away. He watched helplessly as Li Jian rushed over like a big bird.
This is Li Jian's favorite style of fighting. Since it is a fight, the two of them must face each other. One chases and the other escapes like just now. The person who escapes is extremely fast, which makes Li Jian a little uncomfortable. Now that person When forced to stop, it was the time for Li Jian to show off his power.
Li Jian was a little flustered by the man in black's two swords just now. Although he admired the swordsmanship of the man in black, he wanted to have a good fight with him. He was in a hurry and failed to use all his methods. Now that he finally got the opportunity, he naturally wanted to go all out. He saw Li Jian flick his right wrist, and the long sword in his hand, which was already shining white, suddenly became like a pear tree in full bloom, and the white sword light roared and stabbed down!
A dense "ding-dong" sound came from the heads of the people who were fighting fiercely. It was like a bunch of pearls pouring on the top of the glass, which was dense and continuous, attracting the people below to look up.
Yan Shuang and the others looked up after the fight, and saw white streams of light in the air sweeping across a black figure. They knew that the black figure was the one who came for a sneak attack, but now that the swordsman's swordsmanship was sharp, But that black figure was like a rock in the tide, unmoving.
Even though Li Jian's sword was as powerful as rain, the man in black on the opposite side was also moving his sword like wind. Every time the lightless spiritual sword was thrust out, it defeated an incandescent sword light. Although it looked a little relaxed, in fact The man in black was already a little anxious. Now it seemed that she was being held back by Li Jian. She originally wanted to assassinate Yan Shuang unexpectedly, but she didn't expect someone to see through and intercept her. When she made up her mind, she would fight. Yan Shuang never expected that two sword cultivators would be entangled with him, and each one was more difficult to deal with than the other. The little sword cultivator in front of him was the most troublesome to him. It was he who discovered him and entangled himself the tightest. It's hard to escape, let alone fight in front of Yan Shuang!
If he can't escape, it will be difficult to escape when all the alarmed disciples of the Five Spirits gather around him. It doesn't matter if he can't kill Yan Shuang. It would be a mistake to leave him here. Even if he doesn't die, he will still be injured. If you escape, you will be unable to hold your head up for a long time!
This damn little sword cultivator will definitely kill you if he gets the chance!
Li Jian was also a little anxious at this time. In the past, when his sword was raining down, the opponent would definitely use his body skills to avoid and resist. His sword might not be able to hit the opponent. That was normal, but this guy in front of him was right there. She didn't move, just fighting with her sword after sword. She blocked every sword she threw. Not only did she resist all the thrusts of her sword, but she could also look so calm and calm. This was still Li Li. Jane encountered it for the first time since entering Muxiufeng.
This made Li Jian a little unconvinced. He suddenly thought that the spiritual sword in his left hand had not been moved, so the sword suddenly stopped and the pear blossoms disappeared in the air. But before the other party could react, the swords crossed and then When they separated, both swords came out, white light shone, and a huge white lotus bloomed in front of him, leaning sideways and pressing towards the man.
This time, the face of the man in black became stern. For the first time, he was forced backwards by the sword force of the little swordsman opposite him. After a few sword strikes, she found that the opponent's heavy sword shadows came in pairs. No matter where he stabs, although he can see clearly, what he blocks with his sword is a shadow. Even if he blocks the opponent's sword with one sword, there is still a sword at the same time as his own sword blocks the opponent's sword. The light pierced him from different angles, and it was hard to guard against it. If he didn't retreat at this time, he would be hit by the sword. So the man in black was forced to fly back by the dense sword force. As soon as he started to retreat, he would be hit again. It was impossible to resist with his sword. The opponent's sword light came at him all-pervasively like dense rain. In the end, the man in black was suppressed by Li Jian's sword light and flew backwards.
During this period, Gu Yuan was also impressed by Li Jian's sword skills. He stared blankly for a while. He really didn't know when Mu Xiufeng had such a junior disciple. His sword skills were at least one of the brightest among Mu Xiufeng's disciples. Why have you never heard of such an eye-catching person? Then he saw the man in black being forced back by the junior brother's sword rain, and then he came to his senses and used his spiritual sword to attack the man in black from behind, causing the man in black to panic frequently and almost getting hit by the sword. She was forced to get rid of her junior brother, and in the end, in desperation, the man in black had no choice but to fall straight from the air.
Although there is a lot of ink above, from the moment Li Jian rushed out to stop the attacking man in black to the time when he and Gu Yuan worked together to force the man in black to the ground, it only happened in a matter of seconds.
When he fell, the man in black also noticed that opposite the scattered cultivators surrounded by shadows, the stunning woman with flying snow-white hair specifically glanced at him a few times!
Yan Shuang withdrew her gaze. She didn't know the female swordsman in black, but she had heard of some of the methods she used. But now was not the time to think about such things. She saw the female swordsman in black coming from The top fell straight down, and the little sword cultivator of Mu Xiufeng also quickly fell down on his head and feet as if he was pushing a huge lotus with both hands. In an instant, the two people where they landed screamed in surprise, and the people who were affected were scattered. The cultivators either fell to the ground dead or fled in all directions, and then the sword light of Gu Yuan from Mu Xiufeng also joined in.
According to Li Jian's thinking, this woman must also be a casual cultivator who came here for the sake of spiritual stones. But what puzzled him was that when this woman fell down and saw the casual cultivators around her, she had a look of disgust on her face. Color, she killed several casual cultivators who were closer to her when she fell. In this way, all the casual cultivators around were frightened away to make way for a piece of ground. Then Li Jian fell down, and Gu Yuan behind him also Following them, the three sword cultivators almost started a fierce battle with gleaming swords in the center of the rogue cultivators!
