Chapter 11 Escape Under the Moonlight
The man in black, wielding a long sword in both hands, was in front of Chen Zhou in an instant.
"Bang...."
The wooden sword clashed with the longsword, and Chen Zhou had almost no ability to resist. The wooden sword in his hand was cut in two by the longsword.
As soon as the wooden sword broke, the man in black's longsword drew closer to Chen Zhou.
Chen Zhou could clearly sense the profound true energy surrounding the man in black, and it was likely that the man in black's cultivation level was several levels higher than his own.
"Sizzle sizzle..."
The longsword slashed open Chen Zhou's clothes, leaving a long gash on his chest. Blood quickly stained Chen Zhou's clothes red.
This sword strike not only directly wounded Chen Zhou, but also knocked him several meters away. The black-clad man's tyrannical true energy continued to slam against Chen Zhou's chest, tearing at his clothes and wounds.
"Ding! Host has not cultivated for one minute. Health value +2! Root bone value +1! True Qi value +1!"
"Ding! Host has not cultivated for two minutes. Health value +4! Constitution value +1! True Qi value +1!"
......
Chen Zhou's life hung in the balance, but the system showed no sign of stopping, continuing to emit system notifications and continuously replenishing Chen Zhou's body with power.
At this moment, the man in black was only a few meters away from Chen Zhou, but he did not rush over to kill him. Instead, he seemed to be enjoying the process.
He slowly raised his longsword and licked the blood off it!
By the moonlight, Chen Zhou could only see part of the black-clad man's face: his chin, mouth, and tongue dripping with bright red blood.
Chen Zhou felt nauseous. Although he didn't have such memories in this life, he had watched a lot of perverted dramas and seen a lot of perverts before he transmigrated. There were quite a few people like this man in black.
But what he saw with his own eyes gave Chen Zhou a completely different feeling, one that was nauseating!
Clinging tightly to the broken wooden sword, Chen Zhou glared fiercely at the man in black, ready to face his next attack.
At this moment, Chen Zhou deeply regretted not having studied more sword techniques more diligently, otherwise he wouldn't be in such a sorry state now. It seemed that the only move he could use was the single sword draw slash.
The next second, the man in black lowered his longsword and charged at Chen Zhou again.
"Draw Sword Slash!"
Chen Zhou silently contemplated drawing his sword and slashing. Just as the man in black appeared before Chen Zhou, he raised both swords high, unleashing a powerful burst of true energy as he slashed at Chen Zhou.
The two swords seemed to be superimposed on each other, so that you could not see the two swords at all, but only one sword.
"Sizzle sizzle..."
The man in black was forcefully struck away by the wooden sword; the combined attack of the two swords ultimately only struck the ground.
With a loud bang, a circular crater appeared on the ground, centered on the sword.
Chen Zhou was still shaken; if that blow had landed on him, he would probably be in heaven by now.
Chen Zhou stood up shakily. Now, using the sword-drawing slash, his energy expenditure was not as great as last time.
The broken wooden sword was no longer usable, so Chen Zhou simply threw it away. Seeing that the man in black in the distance didn't move, he took off running.
The most important thing about Chen Zhou's current physical condition is the wound on his chest, which is still bleeding bright red blood.
If not treated promptly, there is a risk of excessive blood loss.
Moreover, the sect competition is tomorrow, and Chen Zhou cannot afford to get injured again.
Otherwise, the sect competition might end in a complete defeat.
"Ding! The host has not cultivated for five days. A mid-level cultivation technique is awarded as a reward!"
"Swallow Shadow Ghost Step!"
Chen Zhou was overjoyed as he quickly absorbed the techniques into his mind.
As expected of the ultimate lazy bum system!
At this critical moment, having a technique for escaping is like sending charcoal in snowy weather!
The men in black behind them weren't idle either.
After so long, he finally had someone who could hurt him. He felt immense excitement, and the raging true energy around him became even more chaotic.
Its speed increased significantly, and in the blink of an eye, it appeared behind Chen Zhou!
After absorbing the cultivation technique, Chen Zhou quickly began to practice it according to its contents, and his speed had increased considerably.
It was precisely because of this intermediate-level cultivation technique that the distance between the two remained within a safe range, preventing the man in black from catching up with Chen Zhou.
The Swallow Shadow Ghost Step relies on its incredible speed to create illusions, confuse the opponent's vision, and achieve the desired ghost step effect.
The man in black had already swung his sword several times, but without exception, they all only hit the phantom left behind by Chen Zhou.
Time passed slowly, and before they knew it, the two had almost reached the foot of the mountain.
If the men in black cannot catch up with him now, as long as he runs into the sect, his safety will be guaranteed by the senior brothers on guard.
With that thought in mind, Chen Zhou once again urged the true energy in his body to flow into his legs, increasing his speed even further.
The man in black didn't say a word the whole time. Just when Chen Zhou thought he was about to escape, a chill ran down his spine!
Cold sweat broke out.
A powerful storm condensed behind Chen Zhou, and what Chen Zhou couldn't see was that the two longswords in the black-clad man's hands merged back into one.
This time, the man in black dared not hesitate any longer. This strike had to kill this annoying brat. What if one of them ran away to report the news?
You will still die at my hands.
He swung his sword down.
A dense mass of dark shadows appeared, indicating a significant increase in the black-clad man's strength. A massive black shadow crouched behind him, and the sword intent contained in this strike far exceeded Chen Zhou's ability to withstand it.
The dark figure kept emitting eerie sounds, and much of the sword intent in this sword strike had already materialized into a solidified black sword intent!
"die!"
The man in black gave a low shout, slashed with his sword, and sheathed it in one swift motion.
Chen Zhou dared not be careless any longer and immediately took out the protective charm that Jiang Ying had given him, and a surge of his own aura flowed into the charm according to his will.
The guardian received the aura, shone brightly, and instantly transformed into a huge shield of true energy!
Sensing the approaching sword strike from behind, Chen Zhou used the Shadow Step to change direction, raising a massive shield of true energy in front of him.
They huddled almost entirely behind the shield, minimizing the damage they would take by hiding in the center of the shield.
"Bang!"
The black sword slashed and collided heavily with the shield.
The black sword intent dissipated rapidly, and the true energy shield shone brightly, almost illuminating the surroundings.
The moment this light is released, the senior brothers on night watch in the sect will definitely notice it!
However, the black sword intent only partially dissipated, not completely, and the light from the true qi shield quickly disappeared after it was lit.
"Bang!"
The protective aura shield has crumbled!
"Those who harm my Southern Kingdom shall be killed without mercy!"
The protective amulet shattered, and a powerful, ethereal voice echoed.
From the very center of the shattered shield, a powerful white stream of true energy shot straight out, eventually transforming into a long spear.
It points directly to the man in black.
