Chapter 372 Flames Rising, Elemental Body (Two Chapters in One)
"Crackling..."
In the blazing fire, the burned house collapsed, making a noise.
Fang Jingtang and his three men stood quietly behind Liu Yuancheng, looking at the hateful enemy not far away with resentment, waiting for this strong man with third-level cultivation to take him down. .
“Tsk, it seems that tonight is over. I’m a bit unlucky! I was about to wipe out all the backbone of the Red Blood Gang as planned, but in the end, someone killed me halfway. Cheng Yaojin.
We can only find time in the future to eliminate the remaining scum. "Lin Li looked at the guy in front of him and muttered in his mind, and then his eyes fell on the members of the Red Blood Gang who were hiding behind Liu Yuancheng.
The four of Fang Jingtang saw Lin Li looking at them, with no murderous intent in their eyes. Without covering up, they immediately shuddered at the thought of how terrifying this enemy was, then shrank back and took a few steps back.
"What? Judging from your reaction, are you preparing to resist? "Liu Yuancheng asked.
"Huh..." Lin Li withdrew his gaze from the members of the Red Blood Gang and looked at the third-level practitioner in front of him. He took a long breath and said, "If I want to leave, , you can't keep me..."
Liu Yuancheng didn't expect that the person in front of him would dare to say such things even though he knew that he was a third-level practitioner. He felt that this person was really arrogant. .
However, it was rare for him to meet such an ignorant person. He was not angry because of the other person's arrogant words. Instead, he burst out laughing.
"Hahaha... you are really arrogant! I hope you can still have the same attitude as you are now."
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Yuancheng's whole body burst out, as fast as The speed of the wind brought him close to Lin Li in the blink of an eye.
Raise your right hand, clench your fingers into a fist, and punch the target in the chest.
After learning that the man in front of him with a sword hanging from his waist was a third-level practitioner, Lin Li always concentrated on being wary of the opponent, so when the enemy launched an attack, he immediately reacted.
He ducked sideways, and a fierce fist grazed the corner of Lin Li's clothes.
The shot was empty and failed to hit the target, which made Liu Yuancheng feel surprised in his heart.
The reason why he was surprised was that although he did not use all his strength in the attack just now, such an attack was not something that a practitioner at the beginning of the second stage could dodge, even if it was a second stage practitioner. Practitioners in the middle stage cannot avoid it.
But the masked man in front of him was still at the early stage of the second stage of spiritual energy fluctuations. With such strength, he actually avoided his attack.
After Lin Li dodged the attack, he immediately raised his leg to counterattack and kicked Liu Yuancheng in the face. Facing the target's counterattack, Liu Yuancheng also responded and stretched out his free left hand to block. .
"Bang."
A kick hit Liu Yuancheng's arm, and the huge force made the collision make a dull sound.
After giving the opponent a kick in return, Lin Li used the reaction force to jump back, took several steps back, kept a certain distance, and was ready.
"What a powerful force. A practitioner at the beginning of the second stage cannot have such power. You must be more than a practitioner at the early stage of the second stage, right?" Liu Yuancheng, who blocked Lin Li's counterattack, moved slightly. Said with some numb arms.
Previously, Lin Li dealt with the members of the Red Blood Gang so easily that he had the time to answer each other's questions and ridicule them.
The enemy we are facing now is a third-level cultivator. The pressure is very high and there is no way to distract him.
Seeing that the target was silent and did not speak, Liu Yuancheng did not continue to ask questions, because he felt that since you are unwilling to speak, then I will use force to make you answer my questions.
Pull out the long sword hanging from the waist and inject spiritual energy. The light golden light blooms on the sharp edge of the long sword.
"Bang."
When Lin Li saw the enemy draw out his weapon, he raised his hand and snapped his fingers. The flying sparks immediately expanded and condensed into blazing fireballs the size of watermelons.
"Awakened the fire power? No wonder he is much stronger than practitioners of the same level who have not awakened the power. However, it is still a bit too strong and beyond common sense." Liu Yuancheng saw the fireballs surrounding Lin Li and thought in his heart Said to himself.
"Whoops..."
Under Lin Li's control, fireballs shot out quickly, directly attacking Liu Yuancheng who was holding a spiritual weapon and a long sword.
"You four, stand back..." Liu Yuancheng said to the four members of the Red Blood Gang who were hiding behind him, and then took the initiative to face the fireball shot towards him.
After hearing this, Fang Jingtang and his three men quickly stepped back dozens of meters, then stood there and watched the two men fighting.
They didn't even think about running away because there was no need, after all they were victims.
"Bang, bang, bang..."
The sword flashed, and the fireballs the size of watermelons that attacked Liu Yuancheng were all chopped up by Liu Yuancheng's spiritual weapon long sword.
After the fireball exploded, a wave of fire swept across it. Liu Yuancheng already had a way to deal with this. He mobilized the spiritual energy in his Dantian to cover the surface of his body, isolating the damage from the wave of fire.
This method of mobilizing spiritual energy for defense requires very high control of spiritual energy, and at the same time, it consumes a lot of spiritual energy.
Although second-level practitioners can also use this method, if they want to use this method so skillfully, they need to break through to the third level and practice more to master it.
Use a weapon to chop down the incoming fireball, use your spiritual energy to resist the damage of the fire wave for a moment, and then immediately cancel the spiritual energy covering the body surface.
Seeing the use of spiritual energy with such ease, Lin Li was amazed, "This is a third-level practitioner! It is really much better than a second-level practitioner..."
" Cang. "
The enemy's blade slashed at him, and Lin Li immediately raised the spiritual weapon dagger in his hand to block it.
Seeing that his target had blocked his blow, Liu Yuancheng immediately launched another violent attack.
Faced with Liu Yuancheng's continuous attacks, Lin Li naturally responded with all his strength.
"Qiang, Qiang, Qiang..."
The spiritual weapon dagger and the spiritual weapon long knife with a pale golden aura collided rapidly, and every collision would burst out with shining sparks.
With the fierce collision of attack and defense between the two sides, it can be felt that the intensity of Lin Li's psychic energy fluctuations began to increase rapidly.
If you keep restraining your strength and only use the strength of the first stage of the second stage to deal with the attacks of third-level practitioners, you will not be able to resist for a long time.
The initial stage of the second stage, the middle stage of the second stage, the high stage of the second stage, the peak stage of the second stage... After Liu Yuancheng launched a ferocious attack for three minutes, Lin Li's spiritual energy fluctuations were fixed at the peak of the second stage. Use all your strength to deal with the enemy.
"Second-level peak? It turns out that the guy who wants to kill us all is a practitioner with second-level peak cultivation!!!"
Fang Jingtang and the three little ones The leader, sensing the second-order peak spiritual energy fluctuations emanating from Lin Li, widened his eyes and was extremely shocked.
If they had known from the beginning that this man wearing a hood had such strength, they would not have dared to surround him and take him down even if they had a hundred courages.
The members of the Red Blood Gang were shocked that Lin Li was a second-level peak practitioner, but Liu Yuancheng, who had already expected that the target had hidden his strength, was not as surprised by the target's strength as they were.
What really surprised and confused him was Lin Li's strength and speed.
For Liu Yuancheng, who is already a third-level practitioner, he has been at the second-level peak for many years. He is very clear about the power and speed possessed by second-level peak practitioners.
Logically speaking, he has already used 70% of his strength. The target in front of him, even a second-level peak practitioner, cannot cope with his offensive, but the opponent does not appear to be unable to cope with it. situation.
The strength of the counterattack and the speed of evasion are as good as his own, which is completely unreasonable.
Because excluding spiritual power, the speed and strength of a second-level peak practitioner are at most equivalent to about 30% of a third-level practitioner.
"Qiang, Qiang, Qiang..."
The battle continues, another series of equally matched offensive and defensive battles.
After hundreds of moves were exchanged again, the two sides punched each other with fists, and then each took a few steps back. Lin Li took two steps back.
"You..." In this fierce battle, an ordinary second-level cultivator would have been defeated by Liu Yuancheng a long time ago. At this moment, there was no winner or loser. Liu Yuancheng was really shocked. Unexpected. He opened his mouth to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know what to say.
After pondering for a few seconds, he directly asked Lin Li a question that was very confusing in his heart, "Why don't you escape?"
At the beginning, he had never fought with a third-level practitioner. Lin Li still felt a lot of pressure in his heart.
After a fight, he found that he could match the opponent, and the pressure suddenly disappeared.
At this moment, when he heard the enemy ask him why he didn't run away, he did not continue to remain silent to deal with the enemy, but said in a calm tone, "It is rare to meet a third-level practitioner. I want to see how I and the How big is the gap between third-level practitioners?”
"..." After hearing Lin Li's answer about why he didn't run away, Liu Yuancheng remained silent. He didn't expect that it was just that the other party was not afraid of him, but he actually regarded him as a training target.
Fang Jingtang and the three petty bosses who were watching the battle from a distance felt that their world view was about to burst when they saw that Liu Yuancheng still failed to capture the hateful enemy despite a fierce attack.
Third-level practitioners! This is a third-level practitioner! A fierce attack failed to take down that hateful guy, and he was only a second-level peak practitioner!
"I didn't expect that! A third-level practitioner is nothing more than this!" Lin Li smiled slightly and said to himself.
“That’s it?” Liu Yuancheng, who was silent, heard Lin Li whispering softly to himself, and his aura suddenly changed.
"This is..." A strong sense of oppression hit his face, and Lin Li's relaxed mood immediately became tense. Judging from the changes in Liu Yuancheng's momentum, he knew that the enemy in front of him was going to use all his strength next.
The equal match just now did not actually make Lin Li feel arrogant that with his peak second-level cultivation, he could defeat a powerful enemy with a third-level cultivation.
He also surmised in his heart that the enemy with a third-level cultivation level in front of him must not have used his full strength.
After all, after the practitioner breaks through to the third level, the opponent has never used the ability to fly in the air during the previous battle.
The sentence he just said about third-level practitioners is nothing more than that. In fact, Lin Li deliberately said it in a casual tone.
He wanted to anger the opponent and let the enemy use all his strength as soon as possible, so that he could feel the gap between himself at the peak of the second level and the third level practitioner.
"Arrogant guy, next I will let you deeply understand the insurmountable huge gap between the second level and the third level." Liu Yuancheng said with a serious face and an indifferent tone.
Next, he will use all his strength to seriously teach the target in front of him.
"Gudong..." Fang Jingtang and the three little bosses who were watching the battle from a distance felt the powerful and oppressive aura exuding from Liu Yuancheng's body. Their throats twitched subconsciously and they swallowed.
“This lord is going to show his true strength next.” said a little boss.
"Let me just say that the match was evenly matched just now. It must be that this gentleman did not use his full strength."
"I think so too. A second-level cultivator, even a second-level peak cultivator, is as good as a third-level first-level cultivator." Compared with other practitioners, the gap in combat power is still very huge, and it is impossible to be evenly matched."
Fang Jingtang did not speak, but concentrated on watching the confrontation between the two people in the distance.
The cultivation of these two people is beyond his reach in this life. It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see such a duel.
“Bang.”
The ground cracked, leaving two clearly visible footprints, and spiderweb-like cracks quickly spread around.
Liu Yuancheng, with his feet on the ground, shot out at a speed unbelievable to ordinary people, hitting Lin Li like a discharged cannonball.
"What a fast speed!"
Lin Li, who was looking at the enemy attentively, couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise when he saw Liu Yuancheng attacking him at such a speed.
This time the enemy attacks much faster than before. If he chooses to dodge, he is afraid that he will be hit by the opponent's continuous attacks and be completely at a disadvantage, so Lin Li decisively chooses to stand. Carrying it in place.
The long sword, a spiritual weapon with a light golden aura, slashed from top to bottom towards Lin Li's shoulder.
"Qiang..."
Raised his hand to block with the spiritual weapon dagger. The sound of the two spiritual weapons colliding together was several times louder than before. If you look carefully, you will see that It was discovered that Lin Li's right hand was holding the spiritual weapon dagger, and his fingers were firmly grasping the handle.
It can be seen that this time Liu Yuancheng swung the long knife and struck with such force that Lin Li had to use all his strength to hold the dagger in his hand. Otherwise, it is very likely that in this strike, If you press it, the dagger will be knocked out by the huge force.
Liu Yuancheng stopped his hand, jumped up to his side, waved the long sword in his hand again, and changed the angle to attack. Seeing this, Lin Li immediately jumped back more than ten meters, trying to distance himself. , adjust your status.
But what happened next made his heart suddenly sink.
Liu Yuancheng jumped to his side. After Lin Li jumped back, his body did not land on the ground, but hovered in mid-air and flew straight towards Lin Li quickly.
The plan to distance himself failed completely. Liu Yuancheng, who flew closer, did not wait for Lin Li to stand still after landing, and immediately struck with a powerful and heavy slash.
"Qiang, Qiang, Qiang..."
The continuous attacks like a tide made Lin Li retreat repeatedly.
Tossing and turning, Lin Li thought of various ways to distance himself from the enemy, but under the pursuit of Liu Yuancheng, who could fly in the air, it was impossible to achieve it.
This is the terrifying thing about third-level practitioners. Having the ability to fly in the air makes third-level practitioners more flexible in battle.
Without special means, it is simply impossible for a third-level practitioner to escape from the hands of a third-level practitioner with the ability to fly in the air using only his own legs. .
“Bang.”
Twisted his body and kicked in the air.
Lin Li quickly raised his left arm to block. After receiving a kick from Liu Yuancheng, his body immediately flew out. When he flew out, Liu Yuancheng flew in the air and chased after him.
"It's amazing how you can fly!" Lin Li, who was suppressed by the enemy, felt a little annoyed. He immediately shouted and then shot a fireball casually.
"Peng."
The fireball could not cause any harm to Liu Yuancheng. Just like before, he was directly slashed and exploded by him. Then he passed through the fire wave caused by the explosion of the fireball and arrived at Lin Li unscathed. in front of.
Raise your right hand and swing the knife towards the shoulder of the target who just landed and has not yet stood firm.
"Huh?"
The expected resistance did not appear. The target did not raise his hand and used the dagger to block. Liu Yuancheng was a little surprised by this, but when he saw this, he did not retract the knife mercilessly and struck directly with the knife. Toward the target's shoulder.
"Pfft."
The moment Liu Yuancheng's spiritual weapon sword was about to hit Lin Li's shoulder, flames rose, but the spiritual weapon sword failed to hit the entity.
Fang Jingtang and the three petty bosses who were watching the battle from a distance had joyful smiles on their faces and joy in their hearts when they saw that Liu Yuancheng was about to kill the hateful enemy.
"Trough, is the body of the elements."
But the scene that happened next made all the joyful smiles on their faces disappear, and they all exclaimed in unison.
"So this is your trump card for daring to confront me tit for tat without running away!" Liu Yuancheng landed and said as he looked at the target that had lost its human body and turned into a flame body made of fire elements.
"Haha..." Lin Li smiled, because this was not his trump card to dare to stay and confront the third-level peak practitioners. He did not respond to Liu Yuancheng's words.
Next, he will try the ability of the elemental body he obtained after eating the red magical little fruit and breaking through to the second level peak. In an actual battle with an enemy stronger than himself, How far can you fight?
"If you regard the elemental body as your trump card and try to defeat me with it, this is simply fanciful." Liu Yuancheng said with disdain as he looked at Lin Li, who had turned into a flame man, and the fire on his body was getting stronger and stronger.
