Chapter 365: Catch Someone and Pull Him Out
Seeing the uncle-master leaving, Guang Haoyou and his fellow disciples looked at each other, and finally followed him. As usual, they had to keep an eye on this uncle-master. At worst, they could just stand far away and not disturb him.
If left alone, this uncle-master might really run away and disappear without a trace once he escapes.
The wind was too strong, and they couldn't jump over the abyss, so they could only jump into it.
As for how the uncle-master passed away, they couldn't understand. At least he was different from them. It was as if he disappeared into the wind, or was blown away by the wind.
They were chasing their uncle-master, and their uncle-master was chasing Shi Chun.
Because Shi Chun and the others ran away first.
While others don't know that the Boundless Banner has lost its effect, quickly escape.
At least that's what Shi Chun and the others thought, and they believed that other people might not know that the Boundless Banner was destroyed by lightning.
They ran ahead but could not run fast because the wind was too strong, so strong that it was weird. The wind scales could not be used, and even if they jumped up they would be blown away. They could only run on the ground against the strong wind.
After running over a hill, the three people who were keeping an eye on all directions just slid down the hill. When they reached the middle of the hill, they all froze. Under the flashing arc of lightning in the sky, a figure with fluttering clothes like a fairy was revealed, half floating in the air ahead.
They thought they were seeing things. How could someone float in the air with such a strong wind?
But it is impossible that three people were dazzled at the same time. After looking carefully, they found that it was not someone else.
"Li Hongjiu..." The three of them said almost in unison and recognized her.
The expressions of the three people also revealed an incredible sense of surprise and doubt. Li Hongjiu, who was floating in the air, did not feel the strong wind at all. Other people's clothes fluttered, but his lightness floated naturally.
He clearly stopped them and made it clear that he would not let them escape, yet he was looking at them with a smile on his face.
Just by looking at this feeling, you can tell that this person is extraordinary.
It seems that the person on the list provided by Master Nan who was warned to be careful is indeed right, Shi Chun muttered secretly in his heart.
Suddenly, the three of them turned around and looked behind them, only to see a group of people running out from the slope behind them and looking down at them. It was Yan Baozong and his party.
"Take off your mask." Li Hongjiu suddenly cast a spell.
Shi Chun turned around and knew that the other party was talking about him, so he asked back: "I have no grudges against you, why are you so aggressive?"
Li Hongjiu had a playful look on his face and said jokingly, "You sneaked into our group, treated us like fools, and then said that we had no grudges after you had played with us. Isn't this... inappropriate?"
If you really want to find an excuse, you can find any excuse. Shi Chun is well aware of this. As soon as he heard it, he knew that this person was not easy to talk to, so he simply asked directly: "What do you want to do?"
Li Hongjiu said the same thing, "Take off the mask first."
They had never heard Shi Chun speak, and they couldn't tell who the masked man was just by his voice. As the saying goes, seeing is believing when catching a thief.
The group of Yanbao Sect disciples who were looking down from the hill also had joking expressions on their faces. They all thought that it was a matter of course for their uncle-master to handle, and they all had a mentality of watching the fun.
Shi Chun asked back: "What if I don't pick it?"
He made silent movements with his hands and secretly grasped the Jiaoxian Ling in his hand.
Although the other magic weapons are either unusable or have not yet been figured out how to use them, at least I still have one in my hand.
Wu Shanshan had to be prepared in advance to build an iron frame to block it. He didn't believe that Li Hongjiu could carry a high-strength iron frame with him. If this weird thing really happened, he would admit defeat.
"Then I'll help you pick it."
As soon as Li Hongjiu finished speaking with a faint smile, the rapidly rotating wind columns immediately went crazy, spinning faster and faster, with the wind speed becoming a bit outrageous.
The group even felt that they would not be able to stand at all unless they cast a spell to stabilize their footing.
If they didn't think it was impossible, Shi Chun and the other two would even doubt that Feng would listen to Li Hongjiu.
On the other hand, Li Hongjiu's clothes were still floating in the air.
To be able to stay in the air despite such a strong wind, one must have a very strong level of cultivation. It is different from standing on the ground, as there is no place in the void to gain leverage. Facing such a strong wind, even an ordinary person in the immortal realm would have a hard time. This person's demeanor really gives people a godly feeling.
To be honest, this scene really made the three people feel uneasy, but they also felt that it was impossible for those with cultivation levels above the human immortal realm to enter.
What was even more terrifying was that Li Hongjiu's figure suddenly moved and flashed, which scared Shi Chun and the other three so much that they instantly became highly alert and raised their weapons.
I thought the opponent would dodge and attack, but he actually moved sideways and disappeared, like a shadow riding on the wind.
What is this for? The three of them were stunned at first, and then their hair stood on end in shock. They saw that the shadow, which was almost too fast to be seen in the night, actually made a half circle and came towards them.
Only then did they realize that the other person did not leave on the wind, but came on the wind. He was riding on the high-speed rotating wind, and with the help of his own spellcasting to accelerate him, one can imagine how fast he was.
Most of the circle was almost instantaneous. Li Hongjiu, who came with the wind, was free and easy like a fairy. He flicked his finger and drew the sword. The sword on his waist was unsheathed and shot out along with his gesture, shooting towards Shi Chun. The speed of this accelerated sword attack was terrifying, and one could imagine it.
Shi Chun ducked and slid down the slope.
The two people standing next to him were shocked. They had seen his abilities and wanted to see how he would fight back, but they didn't expect him to just run away without even saying hello. This was not like the courage he had when he was fighting against the sky before.
The two men reacted urgently, one slashed with the sword, and the other swung the sword to hit the flash of cold light.
Boom, boom.
With two loud bangs, the two swords in the hands of the two men fell out of their hands at the same time, one was intact, and the other broke into two pieces on the spot.
The knuckles of the two men holding the swords were cracked and blood was gushing out instantly. Their arms were numb and shaking, and they were knocked to the ground by the huge force.
The attack was delivered at a terrifying speed, and its force was far beyond the ability of the performer. This was a strike by Li Hongjiu taking advantage of the momentum.
Xu and You, who were knocked to the ground, were so frightened that they had no strength to fight back. How could they fight?
The two of them quickly took advantage of the situation and rolled down the mountain to avoid it, rolling past Shi Chun and running faster and farther than Shi Chun.
He could no longer take care of his sword, which had been blown away by the wind.
Riding on the wind, Li Hongjiu was like a leisurely stroll in the garden in the wind column. He casually raised his hand over his shoulder and grabbed it. After receiving the attack, he took the sword in his hand that flew into the air with the wind.
His target was not Xu and You. He was a little surprised to see that the masked man who was so arrogant before actually evaded without caring about his image. It's rare to find someone worthy of my personal attack, and this is what you do?
But it didn't matter. He rode the wind and came back in a circle in a flash, caught up with Shi Chun who was running wildly, and swung his sword again.
Shi Chun rolled over to avoid it, and boom, the ground and rocks exploded, and the sword bounced up from the ground.
The wind brought the sword, and Li Hongjiu, who had circled in the air, grabbed the sword casually, very casually, but he was not polite and threw out another sword.
Boom! Shi Chun, who was being hunted, ran and dodged again.
Li Hongjiu, who was flying in circles in the air, was amused. He wanted to see how long the masked man could hide.
Shi Chun did not sit there and wait for death. He watched Li Hongjiu circling around and suddenly swung out the Jiaoxian Ling in his hand.
The power of the fifth-grade magic weapon could not be resisted by this strong wind. It instantly broke through the wind and hit Li Hongjiu on the head.
However, at the moment when the Jiaoxian Ling broke through the wind, Li Hongjiu seemed to sense it, and avoided it with a smooth drift in the air as if assisted by God. It was the wind that carried him away, and he even looked back and smiled gently as if he was joking.
He was not blind. He saw clearly when Jiaoxian Ling was used to deal with Wu Shanshan. He had known for a long time that the masked man had this treasure in his hand. He knew how he could chase after him and take risks if he was not sure of how to deal with it. He had already known it in his mind.
Then a scene that surprised the disciples of Yanbao Sect appeared. Li Hongjiu repeatedly shot at the masked man in the air, and the masked man also kept retracting the Jiaoxian Ling to shoot Li Hongjiu. For a while, it seemed that no one could do anything to anyone.
The group of disciples were surprised and wondered why the uncle-master would go to such trouble and why not just use lightning to strike him?
You Mu and Xu Anchang had already escaped from this wind column and hid behind a mountain to watch. They both realized that Li Hongjiu's main target was Shi Chun, and as long as they didn't do anything stupid, Shi Chun would not bother with them.
The two were extremely conflicted about this. They wanted to escape completely, but they didn't dare. So many people in Yanbao Sect saw it. If they had the ability to silence them all, they wouldn't have to escape. How could they escape if they didn't silence them? They couldn't hide it from their superiors afterwards. By then, I'm afraid it would be difficult for them to die comfortably.
Shi Chun soon came to his senses. How could someone dare to tease you when they knew you had a magic weapon? You fool, they are not afraid of your magic weapon at all.
At the same time, he also felt the other person's evil taste. The constantly exploding rubble was swept into the wind column, more and more. At first, he could barely dodge it, but after being hit several times, he knew that he couldn't go on like this. Although they were just stones, they couldn't withstand the infinite cycle of large amounts.
The problem was that the wind was too strong and he couldn't run fast. The wind column was also weird, as if it was following him and he couldn't run away at all. He now strongly suspected that Li Hongjiu's grandson could control the wind, otherwise why would he be so leisurely in the strong wind above?
Also, why did they only grab one person? Where did You Mu and Xu Anchang go? If we don't share the hardship, what do we need you for? Wait, I'll kill you with my magic when I get out.
But then I thought I was overthinking it. The lives of those two guys had already been sealed. As long as they could escape, there would be no need for the Demonic Path to help.
He originally thought that it would be easier to escape by using the terrain as cover, but now it seems that he was overthinking. Rather than die in cowardice, he might as well give it a try.
He immediately cast the Bu Yun Boots spell, kicked off twice in the air, got rid of the impact of the rocks below, and then floated in the wind.
Of course, his posture of floating in the wind is definitely not as elegant as Li Hongjiu's, as if he is floating up and down in the wind and waves without control.
In fact, the Buyun boots on his feet allowed him to walk in the air as if it were flat ground, but he did not show it obviously. He was deliberately concealing it, deliberately showing weakness, waiting for the right opportunity.
On the other hand, he also secretly prepared a handful of immobilizing substances and was waiting.
Li Hongjiu, who came riding on the wind, saw that he actually got up and didn't run away, so he thought to himself that this was great, and swung his hand and shot with his sword again.
As for why he always had to let go of the sword to attack, it was because his own cultivation was limited. Although a blow launched while taking advantage of the momentum would be incredibly powerful, the backlash force from the high-speed collision was also considerable. With his cultivation level, forcibly holding the sword would not only be difficult for him to hold, but he would also easily hurt himself.
This is completely different from his use of the power of heaven and earth to perform powerful lightning strikes.
Unless the opponent is vulnerable, he would not dare to do so when facing someone with a certain strength. With Shi Chun's head-on strength of killing two or three high-level martial artists in one fight, how could he dare to use force? There was no need for him to use force like that.
