Chapter 516 Attacking the Red Mist Mountain Ridge 23
Of course, those who can regain their senses in time are necessarily stronger, at least they can be more stable when using their evil techniques, so they are still not easy to deal with.
However, there are indeed more righteous people among them.
Previously, they had the upper hand but couldn't easily defeat them. Now, everyone has quickly split into several groups, and those who are suitable to act together are cooperating, which immediately makes the situation even better.
The remaining heretics, who were not easily killed, also passed away one after another.
In an instant, bloodshed and carnage ensued.
But because a great battle was taking place on the other side, not many people paid attention to their side.
It's worth mentioning that Jiang Chongguang has already killed everyone he could. The remaining evil cultivators are all very stubborn, so he takes advantage of any openings to inflict further damage on them... which is quite satisfying.
·
Let's look at Pei Xiaoling's side.
The tearing between the black blade and the invisible air currents was incredibly intense.
However, this is ultimately a contest of physical strength, and the Poison Toad Ancestor is no match for Pei Xiaoling.
After a stalemate, Pei Xiaoling's wrist vibrated, and his slashing speed increased. The black aura on the blade became even more intense, dyeing the eyes of the numerous skulls a pitch-black color. The skulls were already covered in dark patterns, and if they were still the same size, they wouldn't be noticeable when the black in the eye sockets became even more intense. But when they became so huge, they became clearly perceptible, exuding a strong sense of danger.
At the same time, Wu Shaogan noticed something unusual about Pei Xiaoling.
Look into Lord Pei's eyes.
Zhong Cai looked over immediately.
Pei Xiaoling's eyes, which were originally clear in black and white... were still clear in black and white, but strangely, the black aura on the blade was spreading upwards along his arm and slowly seeping into Pei Xiaoling's eyes.
It coated the entire eyeball with a faint layer of black mist.
Upon closer inspection, the black aura in the whites of the eyes is extremely faint, while the rest of the black aura gathers in the pupils.
On the surface of those black pupils, there was actually a layer of black mist that was constantly boiling.
This is likely one of the reasons why Pei Xiaoling became increasingly ferocious in battle.
As for other reasons...
He himself was becoming more and more domineering as the fight went on.
·
Sure enough, as the black aura grew denser, Pei Xiaoling's strikes became increasingly powerful.
Amidst the crisscrossing blades, the area within a radius of dozens of miles was filled with their shadows.
It makes it impossible for anyone to defend against.
What's even more terrifying is that every single cut was real!
It was only because it was moving too fast that it only left an afterimage. But if someone actually mistook it for a shadow and tried to touch it, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Although the invisible power from the Poison Toad Ancestor was also extremely fast, it gradually couldn't keep up with the speed of the blade shadow.
Before long, the blade's shadow was much faster than the invisible force.
·
Wu Shaogan pondered.
Although I can't see all the moves clearly, I can roughly sense that it's already twice as fast.
[Dongxiao, what do you think?]
Wu Dongxiao thought it was his uncle giving him instructions, so of course he could only see things more vaguely. But now that his uncle had asked, he tried his best to observe and perceive...
After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but have an intuition.
It seems that it has indeed doubled.
Zhong Cai raised her eyebrows.
The protagonist, after all, must be extraordinary in some aspects. For example, their sensitivity to high-level battles is such that their instincts often tell them a lot of information. Their perception of danger is also extraordinary.
Wu Shaogan smiled slightly.
[The ancestor of poisonous toads can probably take a break now.]
These words immediately drew everyone's attention to the bulging throat of the Poison Toad Ancestor.
Well, to put it simply, they initially thought Tongtian's fighting style was impressive and terrifying, and they were all eager to learn more from it. But now it's different... Now they're all looking at that incredibly swollen throat, feeling like a skewer could poke it out and make a loud bang. It all feels a bit... funny.
Zhong Cai's lips twitched, forcibly suppressing her smile.
Old Wu, what kind of joke is this at a time like this!
That was, after all, the Tongtian Ancestor of the evil path. If not to show some respect, then at least to show some restraint because he was a powerful figure.
However, Zhong Cai quickly dismissed the idea.
Because the battle between those two powerful figures has entered a new phase.
Wu Dongxiao and Xuan Bing exchanged a glance, then dismissed their previous thoughts and focused their attention on the battlefield.
·
With his speed doubled, Pei Xiaoling was able to cut off those invisible forces much faster.
The invisible force showed a great disadvantage. Even when the Poison Toad Ancestor tried to speed up and release more invisible force, he suddenly found that the frequency of his throat bulging had reached its limit.
His secret technique had reached its limit.
The Poison Toad Ancestor snorted coldly, and when he opened his mouth again, his throat had returned to normal.
Pei Xiaoling's sword light had already spread out from all directions, aiming to envelop the Poison Toad Ancestor.
The Poison Toad Ancestor jumped up again.
The entire giant toad was actually freed from the range of the sword light!
That's too fast!
Pei Xiaoling was no pushover. Surrounded by black mist, he slashed at the giant toad faster and faster. But the giant toad was an extremely agile fat man, darting left and right, leaping up and down. Every time it seemed like he was about to be struck by the blade, he would always manage to slip out of the gaps.
Its enormous body, like a bouncing ball, bounces around everywhere, yet cleverly manages to dodge all the dangers of blades.
A smile slowly appeared on Pei Xiaoling's face.
His smile was filled with bloodlust.
He picked up the black knife, the black aura so dense it seemed his entire pupil was composed of black energy, or as if a small hole had appeared there, continuously absorbing the black energy.
Pei Xiaoling was even faster.
The giant toad could no longer easily dodge the blade's attack, but it could find an angle to catch it, using the patterns all over its body to block it.
The sound of metal clashing was still present. The wind from the blade clearly contained such terrifying energy, yet it could only cut a very shallow wound on those patterns—it couldn't even break through the surface of the skin and touch his flesh.
Pei Xiaoling's swordsmanship at this moment was very tricky, quite different from the previous dazzling technique. Every time he made a move, he found a very strange angle, which greatly increased the difficulty for the Poison Toad Ancestor.
The sword strikes grew ever more ferocious with each strike.
In keeping with Pei Xiaoling's momentum, they became even more frenzied.
During the stalemate between the Poison Toad Ancestor and Pei Xiaoling, all the patterns on his body were cut by the knife, making his toad skin even uglier. In addition to bulges, it was also extremely mottled and even had many holes.
·
It's so ugly it's an eyesore.
Zhong Cai looked at that venomous toad ancestor and almost wanted to cover her eyes.
What is this thing?!
I've seen battles against the heavens before, and they were against evil forces, so why weren't they this disgusting before!
This is truly eye-opening!
Wu Dongxiao and Xuan Bing also felt a reluctance to look directly at the camera, but they felt that this was a rare opportunity and it would be wrong not to look. So they were in a daze for a moment before trying to concentrate.
Wu Shaogan, however, did not feel anything unusual.
He was simply trying to figure out what secrets he could learn from Lord Pei's sword techniques.
They worked very hard.
·
As the Poison Toad Ancestor watched his skin tear apart, with countless knife marks covering almost every available space on his body, he barely managed to avoid having his back slashed open by desperately changing direction several times.
No matter how he changed direction, the Poison Toad Ancestor knew that the defense of his outer skin was almost at its limit.
If he continues to use his toad-like markings to block the blade's force, the wounds on his skin will no longer just cut the surface without damaging the inside; he might even have part of his body cut off!
This Pei Xiaoling has that nickname "Overlord Blood Heavenly Blade," he's a madman!
The Poison Toad Ancestor had long known that the man was a madman, and that there was another damned Pill Master Wuming who was eyeing him covetously. Therefore, he was trying to save up his trump cards as much as possible.
Unfortunately, some more need to be released now.
Otherwise, the situation might become dire.
At that moment, the Poison Toad Ancestor suddenly jumped up!
It was clearly a giant toad, but the moment it jumped up, its two front claws pounced directly on the blade of light!
Then, he suddenly pushed off—
Pei Xiaoling's swordsmanship always unleashed many strikes simultaneously. Even if he only made one strike at a time, the time interval between each strike was almost zero, still giving the effect of countless strikes being made at the same time.
Now, with just one kick, the giant toad sent the blade flying back in a mysterious way, turning it to attack Pei Xiaoling instead.
This is undoubtedly a secret technique that can transform attacks.
Cultivating it must be quite difficult.
·
Zhong Cai murmured, deliberately extracting a wisp of her soul to transmit her voice only to Wu Shaogan.
Good heavens! Time has flown by!
Wu Shaogan was stunned for a moment, then remembered many "stories" that Zhong Cai had told him before, and suddenly pulled out the origin of "the shifting of stars" from the corners of his memory.
He couldn't help but chuckle.
The mysteries of the shifting stars and changing constellations are probably far less profound than those of this ancestral poisonous toad.
Zhong Cai didn't care at all.
Almost there.
We're all just at different levels, but we're all the same at our core.
Wu Shaogan raised an eyebrow slightly.
That makes sense.
However, there are many intricacies involved.
To replicate Tongtian's attack exactly as it was, no matter how you look at it, requires years of dedicated study to master.
This ancestor of poisonous toads is quite skilled.
Zhong Cai wasn't too worried.
In his view, no matter how cunning the Poison Toad Ancestor was, when he encountered Palace Master Pei and Sect Master Ji, those two should be able to handle him.
·
And that's exactly what happened.
Pei Xiaoling dodged all the blades with a single leap.
Even if the Poison Toad Ancestor strangely returned his own moves, he could still easily dodge them.
Pei Xiaoling did not give up, but instead his swordsmanship became even more ferocious each time.
He was testing the waters.
Just how much profound energy does the strange technique of using poisonous toads consume, and how long can it last?
Pei Xiaoling felt that he had to violently break that limit.
Then strike.
Strike relentlessly!
