Chapter 135: Desperate Counterattack
"Lei Chi Jin, you've been boasting about entering the Crimson Sky for many years, but your skills are only this much. That's all there is to it! Today is your day of sacrifice!" Qin Wu Xuan stepped forward calmly.
He let out two strange and eerie laughs. The shock in his heart was something that couldn't be described by words.
That "Heavenly Palm Thunder" just now was indeed a pre-heavenly battle technique he inherited from his master, its power is not to be underestimated.
So-called innate martial arts are not something that can be obtained easily. Even the most orthodox sects have very few innate martial arts.
Sometimes, a good congenital martial art can even decide the life and death of two congenital masters of the same level.
Even if the physical body's absorption of natural energy is slightly weaker, it is still possible to win against an opponent by relying on the display of martial skills!
Innately, absorbing and carrying the power of nature is one thing, but how to wield and exert these spiritual powers is another. How to wield and exert belongs to the category of combat skills.
Lü Wújīn, although he is the eldest disciple of the extremely evil old man, has only inherited two congenital combat skills. One is the "Palm Thunder" just now, and the other is the unreleased "Wind and Thunder Knife". The Wind and Thunder Knife, as its name suggests, is a knife skill.
And as for knife skills, it's naturally about using knives.
Lü Wuji concentrated his mind and snapped his fingers, and with a rub of his hands, he didn't know what kind of magic had occurred, but in his hand appeared a curved knife that shone with a pure white light.
The knife shone with a brilliant light, especially the small blade emitting a chilling aura. It had an air that made people feel cold just by looking at it, and one could tell that it had drunk the blood of countless people to reach such a terrifying state.
The Lord of Martial Arts saw Li Wuji take out his weapon and was shocked in his heart. He shouted: "Wu Shuang be careful!"
Qin Wushuang and Lie Wuji have been fighting for so long, and Qin Wushuang has roughly figured out what kind of state Lie Wuji's congenital domain is in.
When it comes to innate spiritual power, he himself is in a realm that won't lose to Lie Wuji, and might even be more profound.
Although he didn't know what specific reason caused it, he could affirm that his capacity to carry the power of nature was more profound than Lie Yukou's.
In simple terms, it means that he was more talented than Lü Bu from birth.
With a foundation, combined with "Lingyun Xianbu", no matter how Lü Wuji changes, even if he uses ten sets of innate combat skills in rotation, the result is still similar. Because he can only show a few numbers in terms of combat skills, and his own spiritual power cannot be increased too much in a short period of time!
So, the key to victory lies in not making mistakes with "Lingyun Xianbu", no matter how Lü Wuji changes his moves, he will always be in an unbeatable position. Because on the other side, there is no overwhelming advantage at all, and it's even inferior to his own profound skills!
Qin Wusuo chose to defend Xiao mainly because he didn't understand the innate fighting, so he wanted to take this opportunity to familiarize himself with the key points of innate combat.
Nowadays, whether it's innate or acquired, after really getting into a fight, it still comes down to relying on strength, body method, skill and on-site performance.
Congenital and acquired, the path of martial arts is after all a continuation, and the principle is also interconnected.
Suddenly understanding this point, Qin Wushuang suddenly seemed to have experienced hundreds of battles, and his mind was filled with many insights.
He walked forward calmly, ignoring the curved knife in Lü Wújì's hand, and sneered: "Lü Wújì, you can't even use your hands, let alone a knife!"
"Suit yourself," Lü Wu said with a cold smile. "You try it first and see how it tastes!"
Ruthless and cold-blooded, with a penchant for bloodshed. Once combat mode is activated, he becomes absolutely ferocious. With a swing of his curved blade, he strikes down at Qin Wusuo's head with a force like a whirlwind.
This knife technique is called "Wind and Thunder Knife". As the name suggests, its momentum is like wind and thunder. Every knife slash contains a hint of the sound of wind and thunder, stirring heaven and earth, with an astonishing momentum.
This knife technique emphasizes a strong momentum, extremely overbearing. It matches Lei Wuji's personality quite well. Therefore, only the extremely cunning old man would choose to teach this knife technique to him and grant him a pre-heavenly war knife!
However, Li Mochou had previously killed Qin Wushuang quickly with a "Palm Thunder in the Sky" rather than this "Wind and Thunder Knife".
This resulted in him not using the "Wind and Thunder Knife" when his momentum was at its strongest, but instead using it when his momentum was hindered, so its power naturally couldn't reach the highest level.
Although the momentum seemed fierce, Qin Wusong still strolled leisurely, left and right, walking his "Lingyun Xianbu", completely ignoring Lü Wuji's "Fenglei Dao".
Lü Wu's current feeling was like cutting water with a knife, every cut was full of strength. However, they were all in vain, no matter how powerful his knife momentum was, he could not stop the gurgling flow of the water.
He really had some doubts, was this Qin Wusuo really just entering the Pre-Heavenly stage? His footwork looked ordinary, not particularly strange or unusual, but that swaying posture somehow made every single one of his knives completely miss.
It seemed as if this was a pre-arranged exercise between the two of them, rather than a real fight for their lives.
Feeling powerless!
Lei Wuji's greatest feeling at this moment was a wave of weakness.
He was very confident that as long as his opponent made a wrong move, allowing the blade to graze him, even if it was just a slight touch on the edge, he would definitely be severely injured and fall under his sword.
But in a flash of inspiration, he struck out with over a hundred knives, yet couldn't gain an inch on his opponent.
As if ignoring his opponent's Jiang Pin Wu Shi, he wielded the Heaven Splitting Sword that could cut through anything, ignoring his opponent's Wind and Thunder style.
Every step seems to be pre-arranged, every move is so calm and composed that it's almost maddening!
Perhaps even if one were to start practicing this gait from birth, it would still be impossible to achieve such proficiency.
But no matter how he tried, he couldn't find any weakness in this footwork.
At this point, Lei Wuji is in a difficult situation, and if he were to withdraw from the fight, his momentum would decline, and the opponent's counterattack would be imminent, making it hard for him to withstand.
Can't resist, have to endure! Can only grit teeth and persevere. Let's see how long this kid can last!
Lü Wújī suddenly became fierce and let out two loud whoops. The momentum of his knife changed, becoming even swifter by several degrees.
Qin Wushuang remained calm and composed, giving people the feeling that he was just taking a stroll rather than engaging in a life-or-death battle with Lie Wuji.
The Martial Saint couldn't help but admire Qin Wudao's patience at this moment. For a newly-entered Pre-Heaven strongman, being able to remain so calm and composed was truly no easy feat. It must be known that most people who have just entered the Pre-Heaven stage are extremely confident in themselves and have an intense desire for battle. To take on a defensive stance with such single-minded determination requires an incredibly strong sense of self-discipline, otherwise it would be impossible to achieve.
Qin Wusong's personality is steady and calm, but not lacking in flaws. He is absolutely not the type to stubbornly stick to his ways until the end. On the contrary, Qin Wusong's personality has a very firm determination, a kind of attacking nature that will definitely erupt at some point.
"Qin Wushuang, there must be another move. His physical skills and spiritual power seem to have been cultivated for a long time on the Xiantian path. So mature. Then how can his attack skills be lacking? Now that Lü Wujie's momentum has not yet declined, it is indeed possible to grind again. Grind until Lü Wujie's momentum starts to decline, then strike with all one's might. Killing Lü Wujie is by no means an empty boast."
The Martial Saint saw the subtlety and knew the grandeur, having taken one step, he could already infer many of the following steps. He also saw that Lü Wuji's knife technique was indeed not ordinary.
Luckily, Qin Wushuang's footwork seemed to be a natural counter to Lü Wuji's style, rendering the latter completely ineffective.
No matter how Li Wuji changes, he always remains unchanged in response to all changes.
"Perhaps, after this battle, Qin Wushuang will make a name for himself throughout the world! Hehe, my small Baoyue Kingdom is indeed too small to contain this dragon. The mood of the Martial Saint is complex beyond measure."
Thinking back to the time before, he was on Mount Wusong. He even took Qin Wushuang as his apprentice and let him inherit the position of Wusong. Now thinking about it, that's really a bit too arrogant.
How can I, with my current abilities, become the master of Qin Wushuang? To be blunt, if he were to replace Lü Wuji, the situation would not be much better than it is now!
However, seeing Qin Wushuang being so brave and heroic made the Little Wu Sheng also feel extremely relieved. At least, now the Baiyue Kingdom had two powerful pre-heavenly experts.
In this regard, it is enough to suppress all the surrounding middle-grade vassal states. Especially the arch-nemesis of Wu State. From now on, they will no longer pose a threat to Baiyue State!
As for Qin Wushuang's future prospects, it is clear that they will not be limited to the current level. Innate, initial spiritual martial realm, may just be one of his.
The true extent of the mountains, perhaps even the great martial saint's field of vision cannot see the edge!
Qin Wushuang's future is beyond measure! It can't be measured at all and can't be predicted.
This is a young man who even the Martial Saint finds fascinating and cannot help but be captivated by.
At a young age, from a humble background, he broke through continuously, every step leaving people stunned. Until he walked onto the Martial Sacred Mountain, and even now entering the Innate Realm, any one of his steps would be enough for others to struggle their whole lives. Yet, he achieved all this at just over ten years old!
"Fierce and unscrupulous!" Suddenly, a voice came from Qin Wushuang in the arena.
The Qin family was overjoyed when they heard the news. Wú Shuāng's tone remained calm and composed, which at least showed that he could still hold on, and the situation wasn't bad!
"I've said it before, if you stop at just this much, then next year's today will be your memorial day!"
Qin Wushuang's voice fell, and his momentum suddenly surged, causing the innate spiritual power throughout his body to erupt forth at once. He then charged towards Lian Yike with a fierce cry.
The struggle for momentum is a crucial area of contention in the initial clash.
This momentum is like two tigers meeting each other. The braver one will surely charge forward, while the weaker one will retreat!
Qin Wushuang's true words burst out, fiercely containing the powerful innate true energy. Piercing through the misty layer, even the Martial Saint was slightly distracted. Those acquired martial artists were pale-faced, feeling an inexplicable discomfort in their chests, as if they were about to vomit!
Li Wuji was taken aback by these true words, and his mind couldn't help but be affected, causing his knife skills to falter.
Qin Wushuang looked at it clearly and took a step forward, with his left thumb pointing forward.
A red light burst out like a ferocious beast that had been suppressed for a long time, rushing out of its cage and shooting straight towards Lü Wújì with an unstoppable momentum!
"The Heavenly Pulse Condenses into a Powerful Sword", nothing can withstand it!
The fifth watch will be delivered on time in an hour!
