Chapter Seventy-Four: I'm Getting Tired
At this moment, the Golden Mask is in such a situation where he can't come out or go back, and the scene that is about to be revealed is driving him almost crazy!
The crescent moon knife in his hand weighed a full 600 pounds, and such frantic swings would be unsustainable even with strong true yuan to support it.
Moreover, Xiao Chen's sword momentum made people feel even more unbearable, seeing the gap and inserting the needle, making people's hearts not have any remaining energy. It caused Jin Mian Sha's true yuan to be unable to flow smoothly in the meridians, making him extremely exhausted and feeling tormented.
Xiao Chen was completely unaware of all this, at this moment Xiao Chen was fully immersed in deciphering the Golden Face Slaughter Knife Method, his spirit and soul were highly concentrated, his sword moves became more intricate, flowing like clouds and water, advancing to attack, retreating to defend, one sword strike would inevitably cause the Golden Face Slaughter's rapidly dancing knife method to pause.
He drew back his sword, simple and sharp, like a fire knife cutting through pig oil, not sticking at all, making Jin Mao's killing move unable to land, fundamentally unable to attack Xiao Chen. It was as if Xiao Chen was a slippery loach, swimming in the gaps between his blade edges.
Jin Mian Sha discovered that he was completely unable to deal with Xiao Chen. His crescent moon knife had great killing power at a distance, but once it was close, its clumsiness became apparent, and it could only be used for passive defense. Moreover, wanting to force Xiao Chen out of a one-zhang range was extremely difficult.
Jin Mian Sha became even more depressed and after fighting for a while, he finally shouted: "Stop! No more fighting! No more fighting!"
With a fierce swing of his crescent moon blade, the sword energy shook violently, then he withdrew it back, saying in a resentful tone.
"Huh?" Xiao Chen furrowed his brow, sheathed his sword and looked at Jin Mian with a puzzled expression, saying: "Why stop fighting? Are you going to let me pass now?"
"This is exhausting, I don't want to fight anymore." Jin Mianxia said with a hint of mockery in his eyes, thinking to himself: "You little brat, you're really tender!"
"Not good, this old thing is going to play tricks!" At this moment, Xiao Chen also caught the fleeting irony in Jin Mian Sha's eyes, and immediately took a step back and retreated violently.
But ultimately, the Golden Face's crescent moon knife tore out a heavenly slash, thundering out, the icy slash ripped through the sky and earth, like a heavenly sword piercing the ground, transforming into a dragon, invincible and unmatched, with an unstoppable momentum, it burst out and directly slashed towards Xiao Chen.
At this moment, Xiao Chen finally understood that Jin Mian Sha was not pretending to fight, but when he fought, it was true and so crazy.
Using not fighting as an excuse, he disrupts his own mind and spirit, but secretly brewing a violent killing move, by the time he reacts, his killing move is already out, with the goal of severely injuring himself.
What a clever plot!
Xiao Chen is still too tender, traveling in the Jianghu world, he should always keep a mind to guard against others. Xiao Chen's experience in Jianghu is still shallow after all, and today he was thoroughly taught a lesson.
Facing the astonishing blade, Xiao Chen was unable to dodge. Even if he used Tuiyun Zong, he couldn't avoid it because from the start, Jin Mian Sha had planned and launched a direct attack that locked onto Xiao Chen.
The blade flashed like lightning, tearing through the void, and fell in an instant. Xiao Chen had no way to dodge, so he mobilized all his strength, and the sword emitted a frantic sword hum as it was infused with powerful true energy.
Boom!
At this moment, swords and knives collided, like thunder booming in the sky!
At this moment, a spark of lightning flashed between the blade and the sword.
At this moment, the true energy and the true yuan intertwined, stirring up, exploding with a loud noise, shaking the entire passage violently.
Among the lightning and thunder, flames bursting out, and intense fluctuations of air, a blood arrow shot out of Xiao Chen's mouth, like a kite with its string cut, was chopped off and flew backwards, heavily smashing onto the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.
"Haha……" Jin Mian Sha made a heavy counterattack, instantly laughing out loud. Just now he was being brutally beaten by Xiao Chen, almost vomiting blood from frustration, but at this moment, one move burst forth, thunder and lightning, directly attacking the vital point, his whole body felt refreshed.
"You little brat, you really don't know the height of heaven and earth. The path I guard has been unbroken for twenty years, no disciple who has come to challenge me has ever succeeded. How could I let you break the rules! Haha..."
Jin Mian Sha was excited at this moment, feeling that every part of his body was unobstructed and comfortable, as if there was a little beauty beside him, scratching wherever he itched, and he felt extremely comfortable.
"That's because I didn't come!" Yet, with a calm and self-satisfied expression on his golden face, feeling as if he had vented out a mouthful of bad air, from more than ten zhang away, amidst the swirling dust, Xiao Chen's voice drifted over.
"Ah!" Jin Mian Sha was shocked, his whole body trembling. He had thought that Xiao Chen would be severely injured from such a heavy blow, but instead he was speaking with ease and composure.
When the dust settled, Xiao Chen walked out of it with his sword upside down, and Jin Mian Sha's face suddenly became colorful.
"You... you're not hurt?!" Jin Mian Sha asked incredulously, he was very clear about the killing power of his previous move.
Xiao Chen's face was cold and unyielding, he didn't say a word as he quickened his pace, striding straight towards Jin Mian Sha with his sword held upside down, scraping against the ground and sending sparks flying in all directions.
How could Xiao Chen not be injured, Jin Mian Sha's blow almost killed Xiao Chen, at that time his internal organs were churning, he almost lost consciousness, his arms felt like they had been severed, if it wasn't for the stimulation of the 'Golden Scarlet Pill', which caused it to rapidly melt, even if Xiao Chen managed to get up, he probably wouldn't have been so quick or fierce.
At this moment, Xiao Chen's lips still had a faint red blood stain, which was left by the blood arrow that burst out of his mouth after being severely injured just now.
Xiao Chen's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and now Xiao Chen's mind had no other thoughts, the only thought was to overthrow Jin Mian Xia, and wipe out the past shame.
Jin Mian Sha's recent severe injury to Xiao Chen was not just a minor matter, so Xiao Chen felt stifled in his heart. This sense of suffocation had to be vented out, and the only way to do it was to defeat Jin Mian Sha.
"Little one, wait! You're hurt, you should go get treated now!"
"Wait a minute! Don't be so quick to act rashly! In the end, it's you who will get hurt!"
"You're coming again? I'm taking action now!"
"I'm telling you, I won't go easy on you just because you're injured!"
"Wait! I'm really going to do it!"
Faced with Xiao Chen's step-by-step approach, Jin Mianxia's expression changed, his eyebrows furrowed, and he felt that he had encountered a very troublesome guy.
Xiao Chen is after all a War Body disciple, sent in to gain experience, not truly sent in to be killed. Therefore, Jin Mian Sha also has this layer of consideration, his purpose is only to train the War Body disciples, it's impossible for him to really strike to kill, and from some aspects, he even needs to protect them.
However, at this moment, Xiao Chen rushed towards him with his heavily injured body, and Jin Mian Xia naturally wanted to stop Xiao Chen.
"Wait for your sister!" Xiao Chen rushed forward, completely ignoring Jin Mian Sha's words. When he was still five steps away from Jin Mian Sha, he suddenly jumped up, and his feet stirred up a cloud of fog. He unfolded his ladder-like movement technique, rapidly changing direction, flashing left and right, moving up and down, and instantly appeared in front of Jin Mian Sha. Without saying another word, he launched a sword attack to open the way!
Xiao Chen raised his sword, the sword's aura shone brightly, his true energy surged, as fierce as a lion or tiger. With one powerful slash downwards, the momentum was immense and forceful, the sword's edge condensed into a tangible entity like a flying dragon, striking out swiftly.
Jin Mian Sha's face was stern, and he only felt that Xiao Chen's aura and strength were even more powerful than before, without any signs of injury.
With a flick of his arm, the crescent moon knife shook off and flew out, tearing out an arc-shaped blade, sweeping across thousands of troops, attacking Xiao Chen.
Pfft!
The swords clashed again, sparks flying everywhere, true energy bursting out in all directions. Xiao Chen stumbled back three steps.
However, Xiao Chen did not stop his pace of attack, and with an unchanged sword move, he killed again.
Still the same as the sword move just now, unadorned and simple, from top to bottom, cutting down Mount Hua with force.
"What a terrible sword move!" Jin Mianxia thought that Xiao Chen's brain had been damaged, and he actually made such a simple and ordinary sword move. Under the moonlight, the knife suddenly rose into the air, and with a flick of two fingers on the hilt, the crescent-shaped knife shot towards Xiao Chen like a flash of lightning.
Pffft!
A loud crash, Xiao Chen was blasted flying out again.
However, the next moment, under Jin Mian's astonished gaze, Xiao Chen climbed up again, his face cold and unyielding, and he killed once more without hesitation.
"What is he going to do! Has his brain gone bad?! Is he crazy?!" Jin Mianxia was puzzled, but Xiao Chen's sword momentum had already arrived, without any fancy moves or tricks, yet it burst forth with a powerful force, fiercely chopping down, still using the "Force Chop Huashan" technique.
Bang!
A burst of true energy exploded, Jin Mianxia raised her knife to block the attack, amidst the crisp sound, Xiao Chen was knocked flying once again.
But in the next moment, Xiao Chen was climbing again, and a familiar sword momentum burst out once more. The sword momentum was low and vicious, reaching an extreme degree of ugliness.
Wow!
Xiao Chen was undoubtedly blown flying again.
At this moment, Jin Mian Sha's face was already shrouded in thick suspicion, with a sense of being at a loss, completely unaware of what trick Xiao Chen was playing, and why he was doing these useless moves. He wondered in his heart: "Just one move to split Mount Hua, even a little kid who can't tell the difference between urine and dung would be able to do it, could it be that Xiao Chen wants to use this move to defeat me?"
Xiao Chen came again...
"What is Xiao Chen doing?" Not only did Jin Mian Sha have a bewildered feeling, but also Qi Chang Lao who was standing in front of the stone wall watching was somewhat perplexed, completely unable to understand what Xiao Chen was up to.
"It's already the seventh sword, by the time the eighth sword comes out, I think with Xiao Chen's leadership ability, he should have understood what it means to be in sync." Ye Liu Xing thought to himself as he observed Xiao Chen's situation.
Xiao Chen made this series of abnormal actions, but the real culprit was not Xiao Chen himself, but Ye Liu Xing.
"You little brat, you're really detestable, actually daring to swindle me!"
After Xiao Chen's seven consecutive sword slashes were unleashed without much powerful force, Jin Mian Sha finally became extremely impatient and shouted, his Detached Moon Knife suddenly swung out, striking out a knife halo that split from the blade, flying horizontally and vertically, slashing towards Xiao Chen.
At this moment, Xiao Chen also rushed over again, just in time to make the eighth sword, with a wild and unruly momentum, but if one carefully distinguishes the direction of Xiao Chen's sword momentum, it reveals a contradictory yet rhythmic musicality.
