Chapter 1035: The Anvil and Hammer Falls and Strike the Star
Hu Kan was stunned by the Embroidered Robe Envoy's actions and cursed, "This old woman is so cruel and ruthless. She must be secretly stabbing the dog emperor with vampires."
Xu Chan took a look and saw that the embroidered-robed messenger was running faster and faster. The two of them on his side were not as fast as him. If they continued like this, he would escape sooner or later.
Since verbal provocation is useless, the only option is action. He suddenly stopped, then raised both hands and pointed them forward, with light flashing where his palms were facing each other.
Even though the embroidered messenger was running away, she was still paying attention to what was behind her. At this moment, she suddenly felt something was wrong and immediately turned to the side. With a whoosh, a ray of light shot through the place she avoided and then fell on the ground in the distance. There was a strong flash and roar, and then billowing smoke and dust rose.
She didn't expect that Xu Chan, who looked weak, would actually use an attack method such as spiritual shock, which consumes energy. It would be fine if the Xuanji warriors of Changsheng Temple used it, as their accumulated energy was almost endless. How could you use it too?
But she had to admit that this did slow down her running forward.
Although Hu Kan looked rough and rough, he was clear-headed. When he saw Xu Chan make a move, he immediately knew what to do and threw the sledgehammer in his hand out.
And he didn't throw it randomly. After running for so long, he had already seen clearly the movements and force habits of the embroidered-clothed messenger opposite him. He calculated that if she showed any changes, she would definitely dodge to her right side first, so he threw the hammer there.
The embroidered messenger really leaned towards that direction this time, and the hammer was heading towards her, as if they had discussed it beforehand.
The spiritual impact was so fast that she could be hit if she wasn't careful, which didn't give her much time to react. So her body instinctively dodged first, but she didn't expect Hu Kan to be so accurate.
Fortunately, the embroidered messenger was good at delivering messages and hiding, so the spiritual light on his body flashed, and he turned incredibly in the air and avoided the hammer.
After Hu Kan threw the hammer, he seemed to have expected that she could dodge it, and he was already ready to strike. At this moment, he suddenly leaped forward and rushed over. Just like before, he also struck in advance.
As if to expand the interception area, the whole person expanded rapidly in the air, and instantly turned into a two-headed god general wearing a golden tiger-head helmet, about five or six meters tall.
He has very real strength, and fighters with different appearances are even more tough and strong, and close combat is what they are best at.
As a practitioner of the extraordinary form, he also possesses extraordinary powers. However, not only do these powers require years of practice to acquire, but their power also varies in strength. Some people may never be able to cultivate a usable power in their entire lifetime. The key is that there is a build-up of energy and certain conditions before the power is activated, which cannot be used immediately in a fast-paced battle.
When the embroidered-robed messenger saw him coming, his expression changed slightly, and he turned again in the air. At the same time, he kicked his feet in the air, and his body bent incredibly. This time he did not dodge, but rushed straight towards Hu Kan.
As the two of them quickly approached each other, as a cloud of mist enveloped her entire body, changes also occurred on her body. She was also a fighter with a different appearance, but instead of expanding, her appearance suddenly shrank to half of its original size. She looked like a creature with a long beak and four wings, resembling both a human and a fish.
This was the "Star-Strike Envoy," a figure from ancient legends who paved the way for the gods and carried the torch. While her attack power was slightly weaker, her swiftness and agility were unmatched. Watching Hu Kan raise his hammer in his other hand, she suddenly darted and dove, like a swimming fish, slipping under his armpit. Her speed suddenly increased, and the spiritual fire emanating from her body drew a trail of light through the air.
And the direction she was heading was exactly where Xu Chan was.
She was forced to dodge just now, knowing that she might not be able to get rid of these two people for a while. If she and Hu Kan exchanged a few moves, then when Xu Chan recovered, the two of them would attack her together, and it would be very difficult for her to get away again, or perhaps she would have no chance at all. In this case, it would be better to try to kill Xu Chan first!
Xu Chan had just used a spiritual shock, and at this moment he must have been stagnant in place, unable to make any other moves for a short period of time, which was just the right opportunity for her.
After this man was eliminated, the only one left was the clumsy Hu Kan. It would be up to her whether to fight or run away. In fact, she was more inclined to run away. Dashun had too much of an advantage this time, and she didn't dare to stay there for too long.
Xu Chan still had his hands in front of him, his chest rising and falling slightly. It was obvious that he had not recovered his breath after the outburst. Facing the attack from the embroidered-robed messenger, he seemed to have just enough time to deflect slightly, and the spiritual light on his body only rose up a relatively faint layer.
As expected, the shield was easily torn apart by the embroidered-robed messenger's arm, which then penetrated his chest, sending a plume of flesh, blood, and internal organs flying out from behind.
The embroidered-robed messenger had a cold look in her eyes. Next, she only needed the spiritual light on her arms to spread out and tear the whole person apart. Even if she couldn't kill him, she could make him completely lose his combat capability.
However, just as her spiritual fire was expanding outward, it was suddenly blocked by a force. The alienated tissue outside Xu Chan's body suddenly contracted inward, tightly binding her arm that passed through her body.
Xu Chan raised his head at this time, the weakness in his eyes completely disappeared, and he became focused and cold. He raised one hand and grabbed the shoulder of the embroidered messenger to prevent the latter from retreating.
The embroidered messenger was suddenly startled. She immediately realized that the other party was not really unable to resist, but was actively allowing her to attack and then restraining her in place.
She knew something was wrong, and in a hurry, she launched several consecutive attacks at Xu Chan, and the sharp wings behind her also swept towards him. For a moment, her attacks seemed to turn into sharp cones of light, which caused the spiritual light and fire on the latter's body to scatter.
In order to control her, Xu Chan could only use one hand to block repeatedly, but the opponent's moves were too fast and fierce, and he needed to ensure that the vital parts of his head were not attacked, so in an instant, three large holes appeared on his chest and abdomen, and even the arm that was grabbing the opponent was cut in half, and was only held by the strong alienated tissue inside.
Despite suffering such serious injuries, his expression did not change at all. He still held the opponent tightly and did not care about these things at all. As long as his head was not twisted off immediately, this attack would not kill him at all.
The embroidered-robed messenger was becoming increasingly anxious, even a little panicked. He had never imagined that there were two people on the opposite side, and they would actually adopt such a desperate strategy.
Hu Kan had already turned around and rushed over, shouting, "Catch it!" In fact, before he could even say anything, his hammer had already fallen down, hitting the back of the embroidered envoy's head with a bang, causing light and fire to fly, and the impact wave spread in all directions.
He immediately felt his body go soft under the hammer and his bones shattered, but he did not stop there. Instead, he continued to swing the hammer down.
Bang bang bang bang...
He hammered the embroidered-robed messenger for more than ten times until his entire body was hammered into the ground. He stopped only when he felt there was no sound at all.
At this time, a large area under his feet had sunk, and smoke and dust were billowing all around, mixed with the hot air. He exhaled, waved his hand, brushed away the smoke and dust, and saw that the broken flesh and blood below had been mixed with the dust.
But even at this stage he was still worried. He took a deep breath and opened his mouth. Suddenly, a bright light flashed inside. The next moment, as if with a loud roar, a spiritual impact rushed down and opened a bottomless huge hole at that location. Everything that existed there just now disappeared.
After the billowing smoke dispersed, he smacked his lips and made a "Pooh" sound, his body slowly returning to normal. He looked up at Xu Chan who had retreated to a distance and said, "Brother, are you okay?"
Xu Chan said, "It's okay."
He took out a pill and swallowed it, then concentrated his mind to repel the spiritual fire that the embroidered messenger sent into his body. After it was gradually cleared away, the injuries on his body and the holes that had been broken recovered at a rapid speed.
A fourth-level fighter possesses extremely tenacious vitality. Even if he is someone who has just achieved this skill not long ago, it is difficult to kill him unless his head is smashed or he suffers a near-devastating blow at one time.
His injuries looked serious, but as long as there was enough energy stored in his body, it would not be difficult to recover.
"Good job, brother!"
Hu Kan gave him a thumbs up.
He really admired Xu Chan's courage and fortitude in using himself as a meat shield. It was very rare. Thinking about it carefully, he must have planned to use himself as bait to lure the other party to attack him. If he was not careful, he would lose his life.
The most crucial thing is the ability to make decisions and execute. Let’s put it this way, strength can be improved, but this kind of thing is purely innate and has nothing to do with the strength.
But there was still a problem. He pointed at Xu Chan's wound and warned him, "Brother, be careful of what she left in your body."
He said seriously, "These things aren't so easy to deal with. They may be gone now, but who knows where they might be hiding in some dark corner, plotting evil. You have to get rid of them completely."
Xu Chan said, "I know." The fighters of the old imperial family could no longer be considered human beings. They were almost entirely composed of alienated tissues, and those tiny alienated tissues could cause serious infections.
But he will turn around and look for Chen Chuan or Mr. Zhuan. Under the great light, these filth will have no room to hide.
"I'm glad you understand, brother." Hu Kan reached out and took back the hammer he had thrown away. Then he said, "That one's taken care of. I don't know if you've dealt with the other one. Let's go back and see if there's anything else we can do."
