Zuan spat out the blood from his mouth and slowly stood up from the ground. Although his movements were somewhat shaky, one could feel a firm strength in him.
"You... how can you still stand up?" Mosquito Taoist was somewhat shocked. She knew very well the power of her attack just now; the other party should have lost the ability to fight.
Zuan wiped the blood from his mouth and chuckled, "How can a man not stand up?"
Qiu Honglei's face flushed slightly. What kind of time is this guy to be making those kinds of jokes at a time like this?
However, thinking of his words "my woman" just now, her heart beat faster for no reason, and she snorted inwardly, "When did I become your woman?"
But she wasn't angry at all; on the contrary, a smile involuntarily appeared on her face.
Mosquito Taoist snorted, "Then let's see how many more times you can stand up!" After saying that, he rushed towards Zu'an.
The main objective this time was still the "Phoenix Nirvana Sutra." Seeing that Zu'an had stood up again, they were worried that he would take advantage of the chaos to escape.
After all, many couples with unwavering love initially vow to live and die together, but when faced with the real threat of death, they easily begin to waver. She dared not gamble; she would only feel at ease if she completely captured him.
Seeing the other party rushing over, Zu An also used the "Sunflower Illusion" movement technique to fight her. He thought about whether there was a chance to inflict a wound on her with the Death Dagger. He was currently in a state of serious injury and had triggered the berserk effect of the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra, so there might be a chance.
He dared not take out the dagger now, lest the other party notice something amiss and become wary, so he patiently waited for an opportunity.
Mosquito Taoist frowned. She felt that the other party's speed seemed to be much faster than before, but she just assumed it was due to the influence of Qiu Honglei's light and didn't pay much attention to it.
When she gets serious, Zuan feels a lot of pressure. Although her strength and speed have increased a lot, the gap between them is still too big.
In this fight, not only can he not find an opportunity to hurt her, but he is also struggling to protect himself.
He couldn't help but call out to Qiu Honglei beside him, "Silly woman, what are you daydreaming about? Hurry up and use your lamp."
"Oh, oh, oh~" Qiu Honglei blushed, then realized as if she had just woken up from a dream, and hurriedly picked up the lantern to shine it over.
Zuan was speechless for a moment: "Don't shine the light on me."
Enveloped in that yellow light, he finally understood how others felt; in that instant, his hands and feet seemed to grow much heavier.
Qiu Honglei's face flushed: "I didn't mean to."
As he spoke, he manipulated the lantern to shine it directly on the Mosquito Taoist.
In fact, Zaun's request was too difficult for her. You have to understand that the light from her lantern was an indiscriminate attack, so it wasn't so easy to remove Zaun from the lantern.
However, she was also a clever person and quickly came up with a solution. She used her hands and clothes to cover the area around the lantern, leaving only one side exposed. Although this reduced the amount of light emitted, it made the lantern easier to control.
Mosquito Taoist's face was ashen. Although she moved very fast, the other party would shine the light on her from time to time, which inevitably made her movements a little sluggish.
There were even several times during the journey when I was almost injured by Zaun!
She was furious. These two were far less skilled than her, yet each of them possessed some special abilities, which made her feel restricted and unable to achieve a crushing victory.
Several times she wanted to turn back and deal with Qiu Honglei first, but Zu An held her tightly.
Her opponent's fighting style, which even involved trading injuries for injuries, was extremely troublesome for her.
She originally thought that with the other party's cultivation level, it wouldn't be a big deal if she was slashed by him once or twice, but for some reason, she always had a sense of crisis in her heart, as if it was warning her that she must not be hurt by the other party.
You should know that although her cultivation level is high, she is notorious in the world and has many enemies. She has been hunted down for many years, which has made her extremely sensitive to danger.
Although she didn't understand why she felt this sense of crisis, she never doubted her intuition, because over the years, she had escaped death many times thanks to this sixth sense.
"The other party was able to stand up even after suffering such serious injuries, so his body must be extremely special. It would be unwise to trade injuries with him." After thinking it over, this was the only reason she could come up with.
At the same time, he thought that the sudden surge in speed and strength after the other party was injured was most likely related to the "Phoenix Nirvana Sutra".
As expected of a legendary technique!
Thinking of this, her heart warmed even more. She decided to deal with Zu'an first. Compared to the "Phoenix Nirvana Sutra," the "Changxin Palace Lantern" was not so important.
Despite being slowed down by the mysterious light, Zuan was still struggling to cope with her all-out attack.
He was quickly struck multiple times by the other party's whisk.
The other party's whisk seemed soft, but when it struck him, each blade felt like a steel saw, leaving deep wounds on his flesh.
If it weren't for his special physique, he would probably have been minced into pieces long ago.
"You brat, with your cultivation at the initial stage of the fifth rank, the fact that you could withstand so many of my moves is already enough to shock the world. However... the game is over now!" As soon as Mosquito Daoist finished speaking, he suddenly bent down and slammed his fist on the ground, then directly pulled up a clod of earth several feet long and wide and stood it upright.
The huge clod of earth stood up and blocked the light from the Autumn Red Tears Lantern.
Qiu Honglei was taken aback. The other party was not an earth elementalist, so how could they control the land like this?
However, recalling what had just happened, she finally understood. It turned out that Mosquito Taoist had been constantly moving and dodging on that land. At the time, she thought that she was trying to attack Zu'an, but now she realized that she must have used her feet to exert force on the ground every time she moved, making the ground soft.
