Chapter 387: Ritual Pattern
Xu Xianwen's perception was quite sharp. When he saw that this still couldn't do anything to him, he immediately changed his tactics, retreated to a distance, and continued to pick up various broken objects in the old temple and throw them at Chen Chuan.
Chen Chuan was not careless. He swung his knife and blocked the objects flying towards him one by one.
Although it looked like something that was just casually picked up, it contained a heavy and changing force. From this, it can be seen that Xu Xianwen also has a throwing skill.
He became more cautious because he knew that these forces were not without purpose. They were probably just a prelude, and the real killer move was hidden behind.
Sure enough, a moment later, a muffled sound was heard, and a wind pressure came from the front. Then, a huge statue with wide-open eyes gradually enlarged in front of him. It turned out to be Xu Xianwen pushing the broken seated statue on the shrine over.
The statue was at least five or six meters tall, with six arms stretched out, each holding a grappling weapon, almost blocking a large area of his vision. He did not dodge, but raised the knife with both hands and slashed forward suddenly!
A flash of knife light appeared in the old temple, splitting the huge statue in half in an instant. The deliberate use of strength caused the statue to break into pieces and roll back.
Just as the fragments were flying outward, he suddenly realized something. He raised his knife and blocked the spear that was stabbing from the side. However, the force on it felt different, as if it was thrown out.
Then his eyebrows jumped, and he suddenly felt that Xu Xianwen was approaching him. The latter stretched out one hand to push away the blade, and stabbed at him with the other hand.
Chen Chuan, however, remained calm. He quickly pulled out the short knife from his waist and slashed at him several times. Because the opponent could resist a simple stab, he used the power of dragging and cutting.
What was surprising was that Xu Xianwen did not dodge at all, allowing the blade to cut his arms and head, and the hand that stretched forward came towards his face regardless of everything.
He calmly turned his head and felt a sharp air brushing across his cheek. He had lost the space to cut, so he immediately dropped the knife, clenched his five fingers, and punched the man on the head.
With a loud bang, Xu Xianwen was thrown out, and a huge gap was immediately knocked out in the wall of the old temple. Because it was getting close to dawn, the light from outside poured in, and the interior of the old temple suddenly became much brighter.
As Chen Chuan bent down and picked up the dagger, he felt that he could no longer hear any movement from above the boundary. It was obviously destroyed. It seemed that Xu Xianwen's action just now was for this reason.
But he didn't care about this matter. It was not something he needed to protect, so he didn't take it into consideration at all when he avoided it just now.
And the processing bureau must have known their location and the direction they were going. Even if they didn't have that, they could find them by following the traces of the two people's way.
He walked out of the gap with a knife in hand, and behind him, half of the wall of the old temple collapsed with a loud bang, sending out billowing smoke and dust, causing his coat to flutter.
Xu Xianwen had already climbed up from the ground and was standing on the edge of the hillside. He stared at Chen Chuan and wiped the bleeding corner of his mouth. His arms, face, and even chest were covered with cuts, with the skin and flesh rolled up and the bones visible. However, it could be seen that the wounds were healing rapidly.
However, the injuries Chen Chuan inflicted on him were not these. Due to the effects of the ritual, he lost a large amount of blood, and no one knew where it went. Preliminary estimates showed that about one-tenth of the blood was lost.
He did not care about this loss. With the release of the heart's essence and blood, the missing blood was quickly produced, and the body was restored to its perfect state in just a short moment.
There was a lasso hanging on his right hand, and a staff gun was tied to the other end. Now he just pulled it and got the staff gun back. He dared to throw the weapon just now, of course he had been prepared in advance.
But at this moment he did not choose to fight with Chen Chuan again. He looked at the latter deeply, suddenly turned around and jumped down the mountain.
Chen Chuan followed and saw an open area in front of him. In front of him was a clear lake surrounded by reeds. White reed flowers swayed in the wind coming from the lake, and on one side of the lake, the morning light was about to rise, dyeing the lake surface with a layer of golden red.
He looked at Xu Xianwen's figure quickly disappearing on the hillside, and jumped down to catch up with him.
On the other side of the hill, an off-road vehicle was speeding through the forest. The man sitting in the back seat kept urging the driver in front: "Faster, faster!"
He is Hu Ying, a reporter from Kuaibu News Hotspot.
He just learned from inside information that Motie Mountain was attacked by armed thugs, and one of the people who participated in the resistance was the man who killed Wei Wusheng outside the arena.
After knowing this, he immediately realized that this was an opportunity!
Because the area was blocked and deliberately concealed this time, it is difficult for the outside world to get first-hand information.
They happened to be nearby, so they immediately asked the driver to drive around the route the two men were suspected of chasing. Although this might be dangerous, if they could successfully report the incident, they would receive unprecedented rewards.
"We are driving to the two of them, along the two third-limit battle routes, my God, what is that..."
In the bumpy and vibrating car body, he saw a building on a hill in the distance collapse with a loud bang, and he couldn't help but get excited. Look, it must be them!
Can you imagine, everyone?
Wherever these two men walked, there was a mess. Walls were pushed down, vehicles were overturned, and trees were broken. It was unbelievable. They were like two iron horse armored trucks produced by Fenghai Company!
After smoothly advertising his sponsor, he naturally transitioned into his own emotions. "I feel like my whole body is shaking. I'm chasing them, but I don't know if this will anger them. They might suddenly run over my car and take my life..."
Then he pushed the driver and said, "Don't be afraid, buddy, I'm with you!"
The driver was driving nervously, and when he was pushed by the man, he trembled all over and almost drove the car into a pothole. He yelled, "Can you please stop touching me!" But this only caused a burst of unbridled and excited laughter.
As he reported, more and more people noticed him, and the number of spectators behind him also climbed rapidly. Especially when they learned that one of the participants in this incident was Chen Chuan, it aroused the interest of even more people. The audience who watched the fight at the ring venue last time quickly joined in after learning about this.
The processing bureau also noticed this situation at this time. Captain Guan took a look and asked, "Have our people arrived?"
"Here we are!"
Captain Guan thought about it for a moment and decisively ordered: "Assign some resources to that reporter, let him see more clearly and understand the situation there first."
Although Chen Chuan started late, this time the terrain was open and his vision was not obstructed at all, so he gradually increased his speed and quickly narrowed the distance between the two people. He then raised his hand and threw out several stones.
Xu Xianwen sensed the sound of wind from behind and immediately moved sideways to avoid it, but this inevitably reduced his speed. He soon noticed the movement of people chasing him from behind. He shouted, held the gun in one hand, turned around and stabbed!
Chen Chuan turned his head and dodged, pushing his knife forward. Xu Xianwen shook his strength, held his spear in front of him, blocked the knife, and with a strong impact, a large number of grass leaves around him fell down.
Taking advantage of the momentum, Chen Chuan pressed forward with his sword, pushing Xu Xianwen back a few steps, and then chopped him down rapidly and vigorously.
Xu Xianwen had suffered a loss from the collision of force just now. Now he had to retreat and parry at the same time. Deep pits were left wherever his feet passed, which made it difficult for him to escape quickly.
Through previous fights, Chen Chuan was already familiar with Xu Xianwen's attack style and had a general understanding of the latter's breathing rhythm.
Although this person's changes in strength are amazing, after knowing what kind of strength he has practiced, he will know what method to use to target him.
He didn't have to think of anything on his own. Several teachers had already provided him with mature suggestions. However, knowing was one thing, but whether he could use it in battle was another.
He took a breath. Through the battle just now, the results of his practice over these days have been revealed. The alienated tissues all over his body are active and excited, and are in the best condition.
After slashing several times in succession, he sensed a gap in the opponent's breathing, so he shouted loudly, and the alienated tissues in his body rotated layer by layer, gathering the strength on the knife, and then slashed down!
With a "crack", the sword stick was cut off by him directly. The knife's momentum continued as it fell from the center line, cutting a deep gash on Xu Xianwen's head, face, chest and abdomen.
But when the front end of the blade cut in, he felt that the muscles there were very tough and did not penetrate too deeply.
Xu Xianwen's face was ferocious at this moment. He swung his hands and threw two broken guns towards Chen Chuan one after another. Chen Chuan turned the blade and pushed them away.
Xu Xianwen leaped back, putting some distance between him and him. Blood kept flowing down his body, dripping into the soil beneath his feet. But in just a blink of an eye, the wounds quickly healed under the nourishment of his blood.
At this time, he showed Chen Chuan a ferocious smile, tore off his tattered coat, revealing his muscular, strong and full upper body. It can be seen that there are ritual tattoos on his chest and back.
This is the embedded religious ritual of the Secret Snake Cult. It not only enhances his vitality, but also can withstand large amounts of medicine. Even if he is seriously injured, he can recover quickly.
But the real effect is more than that.
He watched Chen Chuan step forward again with a knife in his hand and took a deep breath. At the same time, the ritual patterns on his body suddenly disappeared, as if they had sunk into his body. What followed was an alienated tissue that looked like green scales on his cheeks and body, covering his exposed body.
At this moment, he crossed his arms and directly blocked the long sword that was coming at him. The place where the sword made contact made a sound like the collision of metal.
