Chapter 981: Turbulent Water Gathers Spirits
If a knife pierces the neck, any fighter who is forced to this point will almost certainly die, because the opponent only needs to exert force to destroy his head or remove it from the body.
Kazama Kagetora actually encountered the same dilemma as Ian. He had a lot of secrets and skills, but he had no way to use them.
Because the opponent was too strong and too fast, even though he had comprehensively improved his physical fitness with the determination to die, it seemed to have no effect, and there was still an invisible distance between the two sides.
His ghostly eyes were fixed on Chen Chuan, who was walking in the air and whose body was almost stagnant in the air. He bent two fingers of his other free huge hand, turned his wrist, and suddenly stabbed towards Chen Chuan's back.
At the same time, a vague and sharp spiritual light flashed at the front end of the knuckles.
This attack was extremely stealthy, happening right in the blind spot of Chen Chuan's vision. Besides, except for this part of his limbs, the rest of his muscles and bones remained motionless. His speed was so fast that even Hong Fu, who was standing elsewhere, had no time to rescue him.
He had originally intended this move to be his final killing blow. Once Chen Chuan got close to him, one blow would be enough to penetrate the spiritual fire. If the power was maximized, the two of them might be able to connect together. In this way, even if he couldn't die together with his opponent, he could still severely injure Chen Chuan. Even if he lost, the latter would not be able to fight again with Takoda who was standing there.
The light between Chen Chuan's eyebrows flickered slightly. Even though he didn't release his spiritual form at the moment, he had this third eye and was observing everything around him. He would immediately notice any unusual movement from the other party.
This move was indeed very fast. It was obvious that the opponent was making a desperate attack. The spiritual fire was highly condensed, almost solid, and he no longer cared about the defense of other places.
But it's still not fast enough.
At this moment, he turned lightly, and the blade passed over Fengjian Yinghu's neck. Then he swung it again, and with a ray of light as bright as moonlight, a head and the arm flew into the sky almost at the same time.
His entire movement was as smooth as water passing over slippery stone, extremely calm. With a swing of the knife, his body fell from the air. After stepping on the ground, he walked out without looking back. After a few steps, he gently shook the blade, and two dull sounds of falling to the ground were heard from behind.
Fengjian Yinghu's head fell to the ground and he looked at his receding back, his eyes quickly turning gray.
His huge body could no longer stand and fell down with a loud bang. Then wisps of mist emerged from it, and when it dissipated with the wind, his original body was revealed.
Hongfu faced Takoda in the distance, holding the goose-feather knife in her hand. She did not participate in the attack from beginning to end.
Chen Chuan walked directly towards Takoda and said, "Mr. Takoda? I thought you were going to take action."
Takoda said in a somewhat stiff Dashun dialect: "I never join others in besieging an opponent. That is not a gentlemanly act."
He looked at Chen Chuan's masked face and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you should be Director Chen Chuan of Jibei Road, right?"
He said seriously, "I know clearly that you are doing this for your country. I respect your actions because I am also doing this for my tribe. We each have our own goals to fight for. I believe that people like you should be given a fair chance."
Chen Chuan looked at him and said, "Mr. Takoda, you are wrong. You and I are different. I know very well that my actions are meaningful, but are your actions really useful?"
Takoda's face showed the look of a convert, and he answered firmly, "It is meaningful. I have been working for this my whole life. The civilized world has opened its doors to me. I will lead my people to embrace the sacred light."
At this point, he sighed slightly and said with a hint of apology, "Mr. Chen, I'm deeply sorry. For the sake of my people, I have no choice but to carry out this mission. If you die in this battle, I promise not to insult your body. Similarly, if I lose, I hope to receive equal treatment."
Chen Chuan nodded, "As you wish."
Takoda slowly raised the axe in his hand and said, "Also, I want to correct you. My name is Semper, and I am from the Federation."
Chen Chuan looked at him calmly.
Takoda didn't say anything else. He just stood there motionless. But at this time, a hazy mist appeared around him and became thicker and thicker. Then he saw a huge figure appear above him.
It was a half-human, half-snake creature, with its tail extending from Takoda's body. Its body spiraled upwards and hovered in mid-air. One could see strands of spiritual fire in its body, strung together like silk threads.
At this moment, the place where the two stood was shaking slightly, and the ground was cracking, but tiny streams of water gushed out and gathered on the giant shadow, and more and more of them were gushing out, and the giant shadow gradually became bigger.
Chen Chuan looked up and saw that due to the spiritual fire inside, stars shone out from the water, as if forming a bright skeleton and meridians. In the night, it was like stars, and the visual experience was very gorgeous.
He knew that when the original people had handed over the three veins of the mountains, the raging rivers, and the sun to the Federation, it did not mean that these veins were completely extinct in the original people's tribes.
Judging from the fact that the other party just emerged from the sea and now has created such a scene, it is very likely that he possesses the inheritance of the Nu River.
Judging from the current situation of the Chuzhimin, this person might be the only Chuzhimin fighter who has mastered this inheritance.
What Takoda practiced was indeed the Nu River inheritance. When he was near the sea, his abilities would be obviously enhanced, which was equivalent to him having the combat advantage at home, so he had the confidence to fight Chen Chuan alone.
In fact, when Chen Chuan was fighting with the two men just now, he had already started to make arrangements. Even though he said that he would not participate in the siege, he was not too pedantic and he would still make the necessary preparations for the battle.
At this moment, with a thought, the huge half-human snake above rushed towards where Chen Chuan was.
Chen Chuan looked at the rushing water, but he stood still. Hong Fu raised her arm, and the goose-feather knife flashed with a cold light. With the movement of the red tassel on the knife, the rushing giant shadow was instantly split into two by an invisible knife force and rushed to both sides.
However, this thing did not stop, but continued to move forward, and the losses in the process seemed to be nothing. After reaching the back, it shook its head and overlapped with each other again, raised its body up, and after reaching the sky, it fell down again. When it reached the bottom, this time the red figure spun on the spot, and the red clothes on its body bloomed like fire. The giant shadow was blocked outside by a ball of red sword light and turned into a torrent that collapsed in all directions.
However, these torrents immediately condensed under the pull of the spiritual fire and once again gathered into that huge shadow, as if the previous destruction had no effect on it.
Neither Takoda nor Chen Chuan moved, but looked at each other, both observing how to respond to each other's moves.
When Takoda saw that his attack was not effective, he immediately turned sideways and raised his hand. With a little strength, he threw the battle axe in his hand towards Hongfu.
The axe passed directly through the water flow, but it seemed not to be affected by the water flow at all. Instead, it produced a certain acceleration when penetrating, becoming more powerful.
After seeing this, Hongfu's bright eyes turned, and she spun around to avoid the axe. At the same time, she swung out a knife, once again blocking the huge shadow formed by the converging water.
Chen Chuan looked at the axe flying towards him, and raised the Xuejun Knife in his hand. The water-blue spiritual fire on the axe blade collided with the platinum-colored flame, and then flew away. At this time, a whistling and tearing sound was heard in the air.
After the axe reached a distance, it spun a few times and flew back towards the direction where Takoda was.
The material used for this battle axe contains a resonance stone. Weapons made of this material can attract each other as long as the distance is not too far. After being injected with spiritual power, they can even fly and revolve within a certain range according to the will of the owner.
After Takoda grasped it with a snap, he separated his hands this time, took a step forward, and made a big spin. The two axes flew out of his hands one after another and flew forward.
But at this moment, he suddenly felt something. He turned his head and saw a flash of light. It turned out to be a prismatic object that brushed past his ear and turned around and came towards him. The speed was extremely fast. He immediately pulled out a bone knife from his waist and blocked it with a clang.
On the opposite side, after Chen Chuan opened the two battle axes with two swords, he no longer stood still, but stepped forward.
Hongfu understood his intention without him saying a word. She spun around and walked forward, her skirt fluttering like a lotus. The red light of the goose-feather knife in her hand flashed, splitting the water in front of her.
Takoda watched Chen Chuan approach. He had seen clearly that Chen Chuan had killed the two men in front of him with close-range, high-intensity attacks. Therefore, he believed that if he wanted to defeat this opponent, it would be best to avoid close combat and not give him the opportunity to advance.
Moreover, in the previous two battles, even though there was a gap in strength between the two sides, it was impossible for Chen Chuan to have no consumption at all.
It would definitely be beneficial for him to prolong the battle like this. As long as he could consume the enemy and preserve himself, he would have a greater chance of winning this battle.
He was very confident about this because his inheritance emphasized integration with nature. The spiritual fire and external appearance were not used to directly confront people, but to connect with nature.
In the eyes of the primitive people, I am insignificant. Only by merging with the spirit of nature can I become great. At this moment, he opened his arms, fell backward, and his entire body merged into the water behind him.
