Tuoba Wenwu tore through the darkness, like an angry lion, its beard erupting.
He first threw the torch in his hand at Ren Qi. When the firelight just caught his eyes, Tuoba Wenwu punched out, and the wind of the fist hit Ren Qi's door.
Ren Qi ignored the fist that was about to hit his face, flicked his wrist, and stabbed Tuoba Wenwu's throat with the sword.
Tuoba Wenwu stepped on the ground with his toes, twisted his body, and the fist he originally punched suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by a strike against the iron mountain, floating like a fallen leaf, avoiding the sword edge, and crashing into Ren Qi's arms.
There was a sudden conflict in the corridor, and Tuoba Wenwu could only hear the shrill sound of breaking wind.
However, the sound of broken bones that his ears were waiting for did not happen, because Ren Qi somehow took a step back, and an extra sword appeared in his hand, shaking the sword flower and attacking him.
"What a handsome footwork, what a fast sword!"
Tuoba Wenwu secretly sighed in his heart as the waves behind him in the Yangtze River push back the waves ahead. Ren Qi had only been missing for a few days, but his swordsmanship and sword intention seemed to be sharper and more ruthless.
Isn't this person more dangerous and terrifying than Yin Xiu?
After all, Yin Xiu and them just have different ideas and conflicting approaches. However, Ren Qi actually has a blood feud with the White Lotus Sect. This is a grudge that cannot be resolved unless one party sheds the blood first.
In this way, he began to hesitate again, should he devote his energy to killing Ren Qi first?
When Tuoba Wenwu hesitated, several swords fell from Ren Qi's back, spinning and floating into the air, and then fell towards his Tianling Cap and shoulders.
As the cold light approached, Tuoba Wenwu shouted loudly, opened his mouth and swallowed a mouthful of cold wind, and the muscles in his body bulged like rocks.
A sharp sword that could easily tear flesh fell on him, but it only made a clanging sound and then bounced away.
It was obvious that Tuoba Wenwu had perfected Henglian Kung Fu to the extreme. If the sword thrown by Ren Qi had no power, it would not be able to cause any damage at all.
Ren Qi was not surprised. Over the years in Ouchi, he had seen many masters of all kinds. Even if those people had not broken through the entrance, the calmness and calmness in dealing with masters were already engraved in his bones.
Tuoba Wenwu obviously knew that he could not relax just because he had avoided the murderous intention. After a few sharp blades flew away, he did not hesitate to strike out with a pair of iron fists and was about to attack Ren Qi.
However, the person who came to attack him and brought Feng Lei with him was not Ren Qi, but Yin Xiu.
I saw Yin Xiu's hands surging with dragon and tiger energy, obviously having used [Broken Wind Claw].
Although Tuoba Wenwu was surprised, he still punched out with his fists and had no reason to stop.
But his target is still not Yin Xiu, but Ren Qi.
He wanted to use these iron fists to force back Ren Qi's sword edge, and at the same time use his extreme horizontal skills to resist Yin Xiu's fists. This was the ultimate and most effective way to deal with one against two.
Bang!
Tuoba Wenwu punched out and smashed Ren Qi's green long sword with a crisp sound. The sword trembled. At the same time, Ren Qi's wrist went numb and he almost lost his sword.
snort! !
Tuoba Wenwu groaned, his throat filled with the smell of rust.
His eyes were full of surprise. He never imagined that Yin Xiu, an eighth-level master of Xuan Guan, could break through his horizontal training skills and cause him such trauma with one punch.
If it were an ordinary situation, and Tuoba Wenwu had the intention to withstand the attack with his body, even if two or three grandmasters of the ninth level of the Mystic Gate attacked together, they might not be able to break through his defense in a few rounds.
But Yin Xiu cast [Broken Wind Claw], which made all spells, internal power, and armor look as brittle as paper in front of Yin Xiu's hands that were filled with dragon and tiger energy.
However, this statement is actually not accurate, because the paper will still feel tactile, but in front of the Wind-breaking Claw, all defenses will turn into nothingness.
The fist in the Wind-Breaking Claw state will hit, and its power will never be reduced or blocked by any external defense.
Therefore, even if Yin Xiu punches down, there is a huge gap in strength between him and Tuoba Wenwu.
But when Tuoba Wenwu underestimated him and didn't take precautions, this punch was enough to cause serious damage.
After all, Ren Qi knew very well that the so-called invulnerability of a master in the synaesthesia realm was actually just because he was shot with a gun, not a cannon.
If a cannonball as thick as a bowl hits you, no matter what kind of master you are, whether you are a golden bell or an iron shirt, you have to lie down.
After Tuoba Wenwu received this punch, his energy and blood could not help but boil. The energy in his body became chaotic, and most of his energy was quickly dissipated.
He immediately decided that he could not continue fighting with Yin Xiu and left immediately.
At a glance, Yin Xiu pulled away faster than him and ran to the other side almost without looking back. It looked like he was running away because he didn't care about the risk of exposing his back to the enemy!
What a fierce attack and how quick to escape.
Tuoba Wenwu had to lament once again that young people are terrible. In the era when their masters competed, no young knight with a name would be shameless to do such a thing!
However, now is not the time to care about whether it is noble or despicable, upright or shameless. Tuoba Wenwu has been injured, and if he continues to compete with Ren Qi, he may not get any good results.
He immediately quickened his pace and dived into the darkness behind him.
Ren Qi did not pursue, but instead watched the direction Tuoba Wenwu left and silently retrieved the other swords stuck on the ground.
"Brother Master, it is better to chase the poor bandit with courage. Why don't you chase him?"
Ren Qi didn't reply, just handed a sword to Liu Banxian who asked, "Chasing a great master of the synaesthesia realm, the Righteous King of the White Lotus Sect, a martial arts myth, I don't have that kind of ability, how about you go? You said it would be better to chase Master Kou Ma bravely.”
Liu Banxian waved his hands repeatedly, "The ancients also said, don't chase poor bandits. Brother Gao, your consideration is also reasonable. You can leave the green mountains without worrying about having no firewood. Tuoba Wenwu's life will be stored for now. We will pick it up next time. That’s it, what do you think?”
"I totally agree." Ren Qi nodded.
"As long as you are satisfied."
Ren Qi glanced at him and asked Yin Xiu: "Why did you suddenly intervene just now? Are you really afraid that Tuoba Wenwu will send your Tianling Cap flying with one palm?"
Obviously he was a little dissatisfied with Yin Xiu's sudden entry into the battle.
Although Ouchi masters always like to rely on the strong to bully the weak, and the more people bully the fewer, the opportunity for masters to fight for their lives is lost every time they fight, and Ren Qi also cherishes it very much.
Speaking of which, he was a swordsman first, and then an Ouchi master. What's more, he has now betrayed Ouchi, and he is no longer in line with the style and habits of Ouchi masters.
In this way, he became more and more dissatisfied with Yin Xiu's disruption.
Yin Xiu also saw the trace of anger hidden under the cold expression on Ren Qi's face, but he just grinned and said: "I just want to find a chance to test my guess."
"What guess?" Ren Qi asked him.
"It's my hands..."
Yin Xiu glanced at his fist and said calmly: "I want to try, even if it is far behind, if there is a chance and a miracle, I can kill a great master, that's all."
"Not only have I heard that you have killed the masters of the ninth level of Xuan Guan before, but I have also seen you do it with my own eyes. This is already an exaggerated achievement."
Ren Qi said seriously: "However, the gap between the three secret treasures and the ninth level of the Profound Passage is as big as heaven and earth. Even if some people have reached the ninth level of the Profound Passage at a young age and are invincible in the world, they may end up in it. Being unable to access the three secrets in my life may be due to talent limitations or lack of opportunity.
If you think you have a chance to kill a synaesthete master, you must put this idea behind you, because it will bring you not hope, but death.
With this kind of thinking, if you think it doesn't matter if you give it a try, or if you dance gracefully on the tip of a knife, you will die miserably. ”
"I know."
Yin Xiu nodded, "I succeeded that time just now. It is estimated that I can succeed once in 10,000 times - I did hit a great master.
However, I seized this one in ten thousand chance, but I couldn't kill him.
If someone else had received this punch, he would have been severely injured and vomited blood immediately, and his decline would have been obvious.
However, Tuoba Wenwu still has the energy to retreat and dodge your attack. This shows that the power of my punch is not that exaggerated. Even if others praise me, I lie to myself. After the pleasure, I have to recognize the fact. .
That is, the gap between me and these great masters is like a chasm. If we meet alone next time, the best thing to do is to escape or surrender. ”
"Of course you won't surrender."
Ren Qi glanced at him, "Or for you, surrender is just a tactic to win, but you can only escape. Isn't it too desperate?"
"No way."
Yin Xiu smiled, "There is no chance to escape, nor the ability to resist, and you still think there may be hope, that is despairing.
For me, running away is just a way to fight against this cruel world. You can't say that those antelopes, rabbits, etc. can only turn around and run when they encounter beasts. Will they feel desperate? ”
"It seems to make sense."
Ren Qi nodded, feeling that Yin Xiu seemed to have opened up some of his ideas.
When an opponent is too powerful to contend with, is running away also a form of confrontation?
Liu Banxian said thoughtfully: "In other words, if we encounter Tuoba Wenwu next time, we can only rely on the master brother.
After all, without the master brother, it would be difficult for the four of us to fight against that guy. ”
"The four of us?"
Yin Xiu glanced at Liu Banxian, who was still frowning, as if he was really thinking about how to deal with the Youxian King of the White Lotus Sect.
"Instead of worrying about how we will work together to deal with him, why don't you first think about why Tuoba Wenwu will appear here alone."
"Of course it's because the White Lotus Sect has already entered the tomb. Needless to say?"
Liu Banxian said confidently: "As the right virtuous king of the White Lotus Sect, Tuoba Wenwu follows the White Lotus Saint. This is not a very normal thing. Wherever the White Lotus Saint is, she will be there."
Ma Xiaoyu noticed something was wrong from Yin Xiu's words, and suddenly asked Liu Banxian: "So, where is the White Lotus Saint?"
"Of course the White Lotus Saint is..."
After a pause, Liu Banxian also reacted and exclaimed that it was strange.
"Yes, where is the White Lotus Saint? Where is she?"
Now is no longer the time to probe.
Even if the Feng Shui master in the White Lotus Sect doesn't have Liu Banxian's skills and abilities, he should have realized that this is the main tomb chamber and the location of the dragon veins.
Once here, they only need to search for dragon veins in this space, which is not large compared to the Changbai Mountains, and be wary of attacks from others.
If this is the case, Tuoba Wenwu has no reason to leave the side of Saint White Lotus.
After all, with the remaining manpower of the White Lotus Sect, if the wise kings on the left and right are not here, who can resist the imperial army led by Di Wei?
They would never put the White Lotus Saint in such danger because she is the symbol and spiritual leader of the White Lotus Sect.
After realizing this, Liu Banxian suddenly remembered that Hai Dongqing said before that Tuoba Wenwu had a strong smell of blood.
Generally speaking, even if you don't care about cleanliness and only take a bath twice a year, there is absolutely no reason not to take a bath after your body is stained with blood.
Because of the fishy smell of human blood, you may not even notice it when you first get it on your body.
But after a few days, or even if the weather is hot, as long as one day, mixed with its own sweat, oil, and body odor, you can smell the terrible smell of a dead rat soaked in sour and smelly soy milk. .
This is something that no one can bear, even if that person is not clean or has been locked up in a dungeon for a long time.
The smell of blood on Tuoba Wenwu's body was definitely not something that had not been dealt with after killing someone a few days ago, but something new.
"So, they went through a fierce battle?" Liu Banxian realized later.
"That's right, and it's not only a fierce battle, I'm afraid it's also a tragic battle."
Ren Qi's mind started spinning, using his years of experience in handling cases to speculate on everything that might happen.
"Tuoba Wenwu and the others encountered the imperial army, or some other terrible thing, and had a fierce conflict with those things we didn't know about. They killed each other in rivers of blood, and each of them suffered heavy losses.
So much so that, as the Righteous King, he actually lost track of the White Lotus Saint and was forced to leave her side.
This is why he appears here and is alone. ”
No matter what the White Lotus Sect's plan is, asking Youxian King Tuoba Wenwu to go out alone, or to investigate alone is an extremely unbelievable and stupid thing.
In this case, we can only follow Ren Qi's guess that the White Lotus Sect encountered a terrible thing, so that the original organization of the White Lotus Sect was disrupted and dispersed, so Tuoba Wenwu appeared here.
"Did they really encounter the imperial army?" Hai Dongqing asked nervously.
"Or maybe the guardian in this tomb attacked them?" Ma Xiaoyu also had a sudden thought.
"What is that? A zombie? Or a monster?"
"It doesn't matter what it is."
Yin Xiu waved his hand, indicating that everyone did not need to guess. What happened to the White Lotus Sect and what they were hurt by were actually insignificant matters.
The most important thing at the moment was that they had to speed up their pace, whether it was to get to the owner of the tomb or to find the location of the dragon vein, there was no room for delay.
Get there before anyone else! (End of chapter)
