Chapter 256 Three Flying Knives
As a result, everyone changed color.
It would be fine if the legendary fire elephant was absorbed by the vines and attacked, but the snow fox is an epic creature, and the frost and snow mist it spews out can freeze epic creatures.
It would have been fine if the vine was not affected, but it was actually able to spew out frost and snow mist. Moreover, the frost and snow mist it spewed out was even more than that spewed out by the snow fox. This was a bit too scary.
The woman frowned slightly, causing the snow fox to spray out icy mist again, which intertwined with the white mist sprayed by the bell. The white mist on both sides dispersed at the same time, and no one gained an advantage.
The woman wanted to continue, but she heard Jiuye say, "Director Lu, don't rush to do it. Let me take a look first."
Lu Ning nodded slightly, put the snow fox back, and stepped aside.
The sturdy man looked at Jiuye and asked, "Jiuye, do you know what this is?"
Everyone's eyes were on Jiu Ye, and they all wanted to know what that vine was.
Jiu Ye looked at the vine and said, "I've seen a similar vine in Changbai Mountain before, but that one didn't have bells on it, but three flying knives. The people who went with us at that time also wanted to cut the vine, but the flashes from the knives killed several of them. Later, we used many methods to remove the knives from the vine."
Jiu Ye paused, his gaze sweeping across everyone's faces before continuing, "Who knew those flying knives were actually unique companion pets? Whoever picked up a flying knife would automatically recognize its owner and land on that person. Three people got their hands on a flying knife at the time, and they were all very happy. The flying knives are extremely powerful, and even among epic-level items, they're top-tier combat power. They're truly extraordinary. I see that this vine is quite similar to the one in Changbai Mountain, but not exactly the same. Perhaps they share some similarities."
After hearing what Jiu Ye said, everyone looked at Lingling with burning eyes.
They had just witnessed the power of the bell. If it could really become their companion pet, it would undoubtedly be a powerful helper.
"Master Jiu, how did you take the flying knife down back then?" the sturdy man Zhao Xin asked hurriedly.
Jiu Ye recalled, "That vine was just like this one. It was impervious to fire and water, and difficult to cut with swords or spears. Furthermore, it was protected by the flying knife's blade light, making it a very difficult vine to break."
Everyone looked at Jiu Ye, hoping that he would tell them the method quickly so that they could try to use it on those bells.
But Jiuye shook his head and said, "I don't know how they took off the flying knife in the end."
"Jiuye, are you kidding us? Weren't you there at the time? How could you not know?" Zhao Xin said in disbelief.
Jiu Ye smiled bitterly and said, "I was there at the time and saw how they took off the flying knife. However, I watched with my own eyes and still didn't understand how they took it off."
"Is there such a thing? Who is the person who picked up the flying knife? And how did he pick it up?" Lu Ning became curious and couldn't help asking.
Zhou Wen was also very curious. He had only been to a limited number of places and had very limited knowledge. Being able to hear such secrets might be helpful to him in the future.
Jiu Ye said, "You should have heard of the three men who picked up the flying knife. Even if you haven't seen them, you must know them. One of them is called Jing Daoxian."
"The big devil Jing Daoxian?" Everyone trembled when they heard it.
Jing Daoxian's name has intimidated the Federation for decades, and few people who know his deeds are not afraid of him.
Jiu Ye continued, "I really don't know how Jing Daoxian took off the flying knives. Others who approached the vines were killed by the blade light of the flying knives, but Jing Daoxian actually walked up to the vines, reached out and took off one of the flying knives. The flying knives didn't react at all. I watched him take it off, but I don't know how he did it."
Jiu Ye's words sounded very mysterious, but no one thought there was anything wrong with them. It seemed that no matter how bizarre the matter was, it would not be surprising if it happened to Jing Daoxian.
"Jiu Ye, who are the other two people who took down the flying knives?" An Sheng seemed to be interested as well and asked Jiu Ye.
"The other two people are Zhang Daotian and Wan Yiqi." When Jiu Ye said these two names, everyone except Zhou Wen opened their mouths wide.
"Impossible... How could Zhang Daotian, the leader of the six heroes, and his wife Wan Yiqi be with the big devil Jing Daoxian? Aren't they sworn enemies? Why did they go to Changbai Mountain together and pick up flying knives together?" Zhao Xin directly expressed the doubts in his heart, which were also the doubts in the hearts of others.
Zhou Wen then remembered that the strongest of the six heroes was called Zhang Daotian, who was even privately known as the King of Heroes. However, the Zhang family did not send anyone to participate in the Holy Land War. This was not because the Zhang family had declined, but because the Zhang family did not bother to compete for those qualifications.
The forum where Zhou Wen posted the strategy guide was previously managed by the Zhang family. Even the other five families found it difficult to obtain information from the Zhang family. Most of the economic and monetary system of the Federation was also controlled by the Zhang family. Although the Zhang family had no military power, its influence on the Senate and the Federation could be said to be the strongest among the six families.
Zhou Wen had also heard some stories about Zhang Daotian. Basically, everyone in the Federation knew about it.
Back then, Jing Daoxian broke into the federal building and slaughtered countless powerful federal men. Almost no one could match him. In the end, it was Zhang Daotian who defeated him. Jing Daoxian then escaped with injuries and failed to exterminate the senior officials in the federal building.
"They were still young at that time. Jing Daoxian was not yet the world-famous devil, Zhang Daotian was not yet the Hero King, and Wan Yiqi had not yet married Zhang Daotian." Jiu Ye said with a smile.
"So that's how it is. Then how did Zhang Daotian and Wan Yiqi take down the flying knives?" Lu Ning asked curiously.
Jiu Ye chuckled, "Zhang Daotian and Jing Daoxian were just like that. They just walked over and took the flying knife off. They weren't attacked by it at all. As for Wan Yiqi, you might not believe the way she took the flying knife off."
"Could it be that she bit it off with her mouth?" Zhao Xin joked.
Jiu Ye glanced at Zhao Xin and said calmly, "If Jing Daoxian heard you say this, you'd probably be dead."
Zhao Xin felt a chill in his heart and forced a smile, "Even if he's angry, it's Zhang Daotian who's angry. It has nothing to do with Jing Daoxian, right?"
Jiu Ye ignored Zhao Xin and continued, "Wan Yiqi was once known as the most beautiful woman in the seven continents. She was a truly great beauty. Even the flying knife was captivated by her. Before she even reached the flying knife, it automatically fell down and landed in her hand."
After hearing this, everyone found it hard to believe. They thought Jiu Ye was bragging. No matter how beautiful a woman was, she could not affect creatures from other dimensions. Besides, it was a flying knife. How could it understand human aesthetics?
