Crack crack crack!
Inside Gu Yuan's body, his muscles and bones shook, emitting a buzzing sound akin to the collision of metal and iron.
His physique swelled a size larger, with skin all over his body smooth and delicate, yet remarkably resilient. Beneath the blue-black skin lay a dense, tangled network of muscles.
The muscles on his body knotted, revealing faint turtle patterns on his back, exuding a primitive aura.
He appeared imposing and majestic, like a giant of blue-black color, emanating a terrifying presence, not at all weaker than Qian Yunfeng!
And the Qiushui Sword in Gu Yuan's hand seemed to have been imbued with life.
It now vibrated crisply, the sword slightly trembling, gathering brilliant radiance and emitting unparalleled killing intent, facing Qian Yunfeng's palm strike!
Could this kid not be a Martial Master... Seeing Gu Yuan's astonishing aura, a strange thought crossed Qian Yunfeng's mind, then his palm force exploded, imprinting toward the sword light.
Boom!
Gu Yuan suddenly felt darkness before his eyes. His long sword pierced as if it had struck a thick iron wall. The recoil had cracked his tiger's mouth, blood flowed out, and his arm ached and felt sore.
He almost lost control, stumbling back several steps. The hard stone ground seemed like tofu, indented deeply under his steps!
A sinister and eerie energy invaded his body, freezing his blood and even his flesh wherever it passed.
Gu Yuan urgently mobilized all his energy, his entire being like a furnace, gathering heat and radiating rolling heat waves. After a great effort, he used his energy as fire to "burn away" this cold force.
This was evidently Qian Yunfeng's True Qi!
In a battle between a Martial Master and an Innate Martial Master, the disparity solely in True Qi was enough to suffer a great loss!
Luckily, his constitution far exceeded an ordinary Peak Martial Master; otherwise, he might have been seriously injured by now.
As for Qian Yunfeng, he let out a miserable cry, flew backward, and crashed heavily on the ground.
One of his arms was split vertically from the middle, blood spraying out lavishly, drooping to one side.
Though Qian Yunfeng was an Innate Martial Master, with True Qi protecting his body, and able to withstand being chopped by others' weapons,
Gu Yuan was no ordinary Martial Master. His strength was no less than an ordinary Innate Martial Master, possibly even stronger, and the Qiushui Sword was a rare sharp weapon.
In full exertion, Gu Yuan not only split apart the palm force condensed by Qian Yunfeng's True Qi, but also crippled one of his arms, severely injuring him!
Whoosh—
Suddenly, a white shadow flitted past Qian Yunfeng at lightning speed.
Its speed was so fast that even Qian Yunfeng did not react, only feeling his eyes blur, then darkness, followed by a sharp pain.
"Ah!!!"
He screamed miserably, using his remaining good hand to cover his eyes, but streams of blood still seeped through his fingers...
Squeak squeak squeak!
The white shadow stopped not far away, transforming into a small, snow-white mouse, it was Ah Huang!
It squeaked, waving its sharp little claws, seemingly quite proud.
However, the timing of its move was indeed perfectly grasped!
Just when Qian Yunfeng and Gu Yuan had finished fighting, each injured, at their weakest point.
At this time, although Qian Yunfeng was quite vigilant, with some of his attention on the menacing Iron-backed Centipede not far away, he never expected that the Iron-backed Centipede was merely there to attract attention on the surface.
In the dark, another Demon was actually hidden!
Realizing the danger, Qian Yunfeng hurriedly retreated while angrily shouting:
"Yan Shisan! Even though you are a swordsman, to sneak attack is one thing, but to bully with numbers, such a victory is unworthy, a disgrace to Martial Masters!"
"An unworthy victory?"
Gu Yuan twisted his neck, bones making a crisp cracking sound, a cold smile appearing on his face: "Ridiculous, dealing with someone like you, do I need to talk about one-on-one jianghu rules?!"
"Moreover, you, an Innate Martial Master attacking me, a Martial Master, how do you have the face to say such things?"
As he spoke, he gave a look to Ah Wu.
Ah Wu understood immediately, and started to quietly move towards Qian Yunfeng, the gray poison gas on his body beginning to gather.
The Iron-backed Centipede now is more than three feet long, its iron-blue shell more solid and glossy with a metallic sheen. Each sharp limb was like an iron hook, glistening with a cold light.
Compared to the beginning, its appearance was obviously more ferocious, savage, with a unique aesthetic.
"Wait!"
Although Qian Yunfeng was blinded, being an Innate Martial Master, he experienced a subtle sense of danger, making his heart clench:
"Brother Yan, actually, you don't need to kill me. You did kill my father and sixth brother, that's true, but I can swear by heart demon, never to trouble you. And as long as you spare me, I can write down my master's 'Luo Sha Scripture' and give it to you. What do you think?"
No one risks unnecessary losses; his eyes were blind, continuing would bring no good, better to temporarily lull the opponent.
"Luo Sha Scripture?"
Gu Yuan was startled, that was the cultivation technique practiced by the mysterious old monster…
The allure of a True Daoist Technique was considerable, but Gu Yuan didn't believe the mysterious old monster had fully taught such a treasure to Qian Yunfeng.
Besides, even if Qian Yunfeng had such a thing, Gu Yuan wouldn't believe he'd sincerely hand it over.
Moreover, he came to kill, not for some True Daoist Technique!
Wanting the 'Luo Sha Scripture,' he could easily obtain it from the mysterious old monster afterward!
Qian Yunfeng thought Gu Yuan was tempted, quickly explaining:
"Indeed, it is a True Daoist Technique, and an exceedingly rare Earth Tier Daoist Scripture of the world, capable of pointing directly to the Entering Saint Golden Core Realm! Furthermore, this method also… ah!"
Before he finished speaking, Ah Wu suddenly bit his leg.
Grayness rapidly spread all over Qian Yunfeng, making him feel his body beginning to quickly paralyze and weaken.
"Ah! I'm going to kill you!"
Qian Yunfeng was both surprised and angry, his once beautiful face started becoming distorted and deformed.
No longer able to suppress the killing intent in his heart, he shouted loudly, stepping out, erupting with surging True Qi, and with a bang, sent the Iron-backed Centipede flying.
Though Ah Wu's shell was tough, it shattered under this palm, leaving a deep palm mark.
Ah Wu's entire body flew out, only stopping upon crashing into a stone wall, and then fell to the ground.
Clang——
Just then, a brilliant sword light filled with killing intent erupted, reflecting off the entire cave like snow white.
Although Qian Yunfeng was blinded, now stimulated by the killing intent, he seemed to regain his sight, "seeing" this sword light coming directly to slay him.
He was terrified, his hair stood on end, wanting to dodge, but it was too late!
At this moment, his old force was gone, and no new power had arisen!
Moreover, after being poisoned, even with True Qi suppression, his entire body was increasingly paralyzed and powerless, his bones and flesh soft and weak.
Neither the timing nor his physical condition allowed him to make any other response.
