Chapter 181: One hit is sure to hit
On the best stand, a domain master stared at the mirror image for a while, then turned his head to Wei Mo and said, "Even the consecutive killing moves couldn't do anything to Shi Chun. With Mulan Qingqing's cultivation level, it's probably too late."
Wei Mo did not respond.
However, anyone with a discerning eye who knows Su Yuanzong's methods can see that the reason why Mulan Qingqing is so powerful is because of her two killer moves, which rely on secretiveness and shock. Once the secretiveness and shock that she relies on can't do anything to her opponent, the situation can easily be reversed.
The domain lords present here are all knowledgeable. They don't need to see what happens later. Just from the fact that Mulan Qingqing has been unable to defeat Shi Chun, they know that Mulan Qingqing may have hit a hurdle this time. They know that the fight between the two has reached a watershed, and it depends on whether they can get over it.
Chi Rang frowned and pursed his lips.
Ji Qinghe and others who were sitting at Su Yuanzong's table had solemn expressions that were difficult to dispel.
However, in the eyes of most people, Mulan Qingqing's method of defending against the enemy was still firmly in the upper hand, and Shi Chun was left with no power to defend himself but to fight back. Most of those who cared about Shi Chun were nervous about it.
Shi Chun, who was in the vast expanse of white, was neither arrogant nor impatient. He easily dodged the flying swords that were shooting back and forth. It was not because of his agility, but because he could predict the killing path of the flying sword from its direction and avoid it one step in advance.
In short, he just circled and dodged on the spot, managing his own territory well and preventing the opponent from breaking through.
He had already compared and studied the strengths and weaknesses of both sides, and would never jump high unless it was absolutely necessary or he was absolutely sure. Losing three points before leaving the ground was a warning he gave himself.
So he neither ran away nor jumped, but just stayed in his own area.
Since he doesn't have the strength to be a tiger, he has to be a vicious wolf, staring and waiting, ready to strike at any time.
He knew very well that once a confrontation was formed, it would depend on who would reveal a flaw first.
As long as he can confront, he has the advantage. He doesn't believe that the other party can maintain such a large grid of magic domain with the mana consumption for a long time.
Once the opponent loses the advantage of stealth and sharpness, and once the opponent is forced into close combat with you, then your advantage will come.
He had already figured out the speed pattern of the sword that was moving back and forth, but he was not in a hurry to knock it down. He continued to waste time. The more his opponent moved, the easier it would be for him to lose patience. The more impatient he was, the easier it would be for him to rush for success. The more impatient he was, the easier it would be for him to reveal flaws.
The means he prepared were not limited to this white ash. He also prepared a lot of killer moves, waiting for the opportunity to show them off.
Mulan Qingqing also knew that it would be difficult for her magic power to maintain such a huge network for a long time, so she did not plan to waste time with him. After a series of fruitless attacks, she immediately changed her strategy. The flying sword shot towards her, and she caught it in her hand. Then she shot out like an arrow, her body like a phantom, and her sword like a stream of light.
She did not rush directly into the whiteness, but passed by it, and blasted out with a palm, the force of which was as strong as a thunderstorm passing through a mountain hill.
A gust of wind like a huge barrier swept past, and the white area was completely swept away in an instant.
Shi Chun's figure was instantly exposed, giving people the feeling that they had been stripped naked in an instant.
Guan Yingjie was immediately overjoyed, knowing that his senior sister's killer move could come in handy.
The spectators all saw that Shi Chun was in danger. Wei Mo, who was leaning on the armrest in front of the mirror, quickly turned the palm that was supporting his cheek into a fist and pressed it against his nostrils.
What everyone thought was a huge crisis was actually an opportunity in Shi Chun's eyes. He believed that the first chance to escape that he had been waiting for had finally come!
He had imagined the situation where this deception would be cleared up. Since he could use white lime, he naturally had to think of the consequences if it was ineffective.
The moment the white mist was blown away, he slashed it down with his knife again, and the exploded earth and rocks burst out white mist again.
“……”Many people were speechless.
Wu Jinliang grinned, he knew that Shi Chun had a lot of white ash in his hands.
What everyone didn't see was that, taking advantage of the cover of the exploding earth and rocks, Shi Chun turned over and lay down on the spot, and immediately pulled out a human-shaped stone statue from the Qiankun bracelet. The stone statue was still wearing clothes taken off a dead person.
The stone statue was made by Wu Jinliang according to Shi Chun's image. This was Shi Chun's request. However, the finished statue looked very blurry. Wu Jinliang felt that his craft was good and that only those who knew how to appreciate it could understand that kind of abstract beauty. Anyone who thought it was ugly did not know how to appreciate it.
Shi Chun didn't say anything about his work. He was used to similar rough work anyway. It didn't matter whether it was good or bad, as long as it was useful.
They were all educated in the place of exile. The people there really have no qualifications to be particular.
Of course, Wu Jinliang made more than one similar stone statue.
Once his pursuit of art came out, he couldn't control his desire to create, and he produced many works in various forms.
Shi Chun released white mist again, but this time he did not continue to enhance the concealing effect of the white mist, resulting in the stone statue that was poked out being faintly visible.
Mulan Qingqing, who flashed by, was stopped by the silk thread that was pulled up like a bowstring. She turned around and saw the white mist exploding again. Before she could get angry, her eyes lit up subconsciously and she caught a glimpse of the swaying figure in the white mist.
The opportunity you've been looking for is finally here!
She suddenly turned into a phantom and shot out. The speed of her own cultivation, coupled with the elastic force of a bowstring, made the person and the sword shoot out so fast that it seemed to be able to end everything.
Rushing into the white mist, the cold light of the sword slashing towards the human figure was enough to destroy everything in its path.
With this sword, she left no chance for Shi Chun to survive.
Some things were just as she said herself, once she made a killing move, it was difficult for her to control herself, the speed was too fast, with her current level of cultivation she had no time to change her moves, this was a fatal move.
Shi Chun, who had thrown out the bait and was lying on the ground, also moved. He suddenly bent his abdomen and sat up, slashing wildly with the knife in both hands.
All his cultivation was poured into this strike, and there was no way for the opponent to survive. The Demon-Free Sword was determined to smash the opponent into pieces.
There is no other way. If the opponent escapes this attack, the same trick will not work a second time. I must hit the target with one blow.
Bang! With a flash of cold sword, the stone statue was shattered to pieces. Mulan Qingqing, who had succeeded in hitting the stone, suddenly felt bad. How could she not know the feeling of hitting a person and hitting a stone? However, it was too late to react. The hunting knife almost hit her waist at the same time she hit the stone statue.
Bang, there was another loud explosion, tearing her clothes into pieces.
Shi Chun, who succeeded in his attack, also felt something was wrong. After hitting the target, he did not feel the Demon-Free Sword chopping anyone, nor did he feel the target exploding. Instead, the target that passed by so quickly almost knocked the sword out of his hand, and tore a hole in the base of his hand, causing blood to spurt out.
On one side of the mountain, the spreading white ash just hit.
"Cough cough."
"It's not fog, it's dust."
"What the hell, cough cough."
People in the affected area were caught off guard, and those who failed to cast defensive spells in time choked and coughed.
This shows how fast the fighting is on the field.
There was obviously something wrong with Mulan Qingqing's figure flying out of the white mist. It seemed like she didn't fly, but rather deviated from her route and hit the ground with a bang, sending dirt and rocks flying everywhere.
Mulan Qingqing rolled on the ground and stood up, kneeling on one knee, and stabbed the ground with a sword in her backhand to stop her body from sliding.
When she looked up again, her hair was disheveled and her outer shirt was torn in half, revealing one of her snow-white arms, with a golden brocade vest underneath.
She looked down at her chest, still feeling a lingering fear, knowing that if it weren't for this vest, she would have lost her life.
This attack has severed her ability to maintain the domain of law, and the three-dimensional grid-like domain of law has disappeared.
She quickly raised her hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth. Although her waist ached slightly and her internal organs felt uncomfortable, she knew that nothing was serious.
But in the eyes of others it is another matter.
"what!"
There was an outcry and the whole audience was shocked. Wang Sheng actually beat his fiancée so hard that her private parts were exposed. This was too much. Did his fiancée really not want him anymore?
Wan Daoxuan and the other two were even more dumbfounded. Wang Sheng's strength was indeed extraordinary, as he could beat Mulan Qingqing into such an embarrassing state. It was a good thing that they did not take part in the battle, otherwise they would not know how they would die. If he could be so cruel to his fiancée, how much more so to them.
"Hehe..." Wu Jinliang laughed proudly.
Xiang Lan'er shook her head slightly with astonishment in her eyes.
There was also an uproar in the royal capital's parade grounds.
Ji Qing and the other three from Su Yuanzong were so shocked that they stood up suddenly, looking terrified and very worried.
Young Master Nan, who was standing at the window of the small building, subconsciously raised one foot and hung onto the windowsill, excitedly wanting to climb out of the window.
Feng Chi, covered in a cloak, was very excited and his face turned red with excitement.
The three big bosses of Wukang Mountain were stunned.
Miao Dingyi turned around and said to his stunned wife, "It seems that you don't know much about him."
Wei Mo, the Lord of Shengzhou, who was standing on the best stand, snorted coldly, "The Hunyuan Treasure Armor, this is specially taken care of by the Suyuan Sect."
This sentence represents his extremely strong dissatisfaction.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that if Mulan Qingqing hadn’t been protected by her precious armor, the outcome would have been decided and she would have died.
"Senior sister!"
Guan Yingjie, who was watching the fight, let out a cry of surprise. The mere fact that his senior sister was exposing her private parts in public was enough to make him anxious. Then, seeing his senior sister kneeling on one knee wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth, he mistakenly thought that she was seriously injured.
How could my senior sister, who is usually like a goddess, be in such a miserable state if she hadn’t been seriously injured?
He instantly threw the rules of the competition to the back of his mind, cast a spell and was suspended in the air. He hovered for a moment on the invisible spider web, then turned into a shadow and killed away. This move was naturally not aimed at Mulan Qingqing, but went straight to Wang Sheng, because he saw that Wang Sheng was going to hunt down his senior sister, so he naturally wanted to save her in the critical moment.
Glancing at the healing wound on his hand, Shi Chun, who was shrouded in white mist, looked up at Mulan Qingqing who was kneeling on the ground. He was shocked. What the hell? Such a single blow couldn't kill her?
Glancing around, he saw that Mulan Qingqing's magic domain had been broken. He raised the knife in his hand and was about to take advantage of the situation to rush forward and use his advantage in close combat. However, he was startled by Guan Yingjie's shout. He turned his head and saw that the opponent had formed a spider web formation. He was immediately shocked and angry. They had agreed to a competition, so why did he bring helpers?
How could he dare to chase Mulan Qingqing again? He waved his hand and the thick white mist and smoke exploded again, and his figure quickly hid in it to avoid it.
In order to save his senior sister, Guan Yingjie rushed forward regardless of the consequences.
"..." Wan Daoxuan and others on the side were shocked when they saw this. Even those on their side felt that it was a bit against the rules.
Mulan Qingqing, who turned her head when she heard the sound, was almost scared to death. She raised her bare arm and waved her hand urgently to stop it, shouting hysterically, "No!"
She had suffered a loss before and knew how treacherous Shi Chun was hiding in the white fog. Her junior brother was simply courting death by rushing in blindly.
