Chapter 305: Crazy Demon Victories over Xuanmen Sword
There is a saying in Xuanmen Sword Art: "The sky is overturned and birds are startled to fly; the ground is rolled without being touched by dust. In one blow, it is as if the wind is light and the sword is invisible. In the ever-changing world, only the sword is seen, not the person."
The Xuanmen sword technique contains both hardness and softness. The sword is carried on the body and moves with the body. It moves like a dragon emerging from the water and is as quiet as a cat catching a mouse. During the movement, the hands separate yin and yang, the body contains the eight trigrams, and the steps step on the nine palaces. The internal energy and the external form are combined.
Du Ruo is thin but tall and straight, with long arms and a narrow body, which makes him perfect for practicing Xuanmen swordsmanship.
This was the first time Cheng Yu had seen this kind of swordsmanship. It was so mysterious that it was difficult to find any flaws. When facing Du Ruo, he could only block and dodge, let alone counterattack.
However, Cheng Yu was no pushover. Although he managed to dodge every attack from Du Ruo, after a few rounds, he became more and more adept at dealing with it.
But even though Cheng Qi was able to cope with it, Du Ruo's moves did not stop, and he kept pressing forward with one move after another, not giving Cheng Qi any chance to catch his breath.
This won't do! If this continues, even if I find a way to crack it, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep up physically.
A sword thrust forward, Cheng Qi quickly raised his staff to block it, then spun with the staff and launched a spinning kick, aiming directly at Du Ruo's face. Du Ruo quickly retreated upon seeing this, and Cheng Qi took this opportunity to distance himself from him.
They stood still and both took a breath.
From the outset, Du Ruo pressed hard, denying Cheng Yu any chance to counterattack. He used all his skills in his close-quarters attacks, especially the Golden Embrace Chain, which had been delivered with exceptional force. Now, after being repelled by Cheng Yu and coming to a sudden halt, he felt a momentary sense of exhaustion.
Cheng Yu was dodging step by step and concentrating on finding a way to break the attack. Most of his physical strength had already been depleted, not to mention the kick that had just forced Du Ruo to retreat.
The two of them stared at each other, panting non-stop. Lingxiang in the audience was delighted, but she thought of the storybook she had read a few days ago. She frankly said that the two people on the stage were inexplicably...
They match well...
Just as Lingxiang was lost in thought, she heard Long Qi suddenly shout, "Go ahead! Fight him! Why are you hiding?"
The shouting brought Lingxiang back from her thoughts. She looked at Long Qi, her eyes flashed, and then she took out a pill from her waist and called Long Qi over.
Lingxiang had given him pills before, so Long Qi took the pill and swallowed it without thinking. But after the pill entered his stomach, he realized why Lingxiang gave him the pill at this time?
Thinking this, he asked. Lingxiang just smiled and said, "Seeing that you have a strong internal fire, it must be caused by the defeat yesterday. This is not conducive to your cultivation, so I gave you a Hanyu pill to calm your internal fire and focus your mind."
Hearing this, Long Qi shrugged. While he'd been a little upset yesterday, he'd already gotten over it and hadn't taken it to heart. He'd simply been anxious because Cheng Qi was constantly avoiding attacking. But Ling Xiang had good intentions; she had him in mind!
Thinking of this, Long Qihan smiled and rubbed his nose.
Oh! Woman!
Hearing Long Qi's shouting from the audience, Cheng Yu frowned slightly. His strength was already depleted by half, and if he continued to retreat and dodge like this, he was likely to lose on stage.
After thinking it over, Cheng Qi pulled out his long stick, lowered his body, and hit the ground with the stick, making a series of dull sounds.
"This momentum!"
Hui Yan was shocked when he saw this, but Ling Xiang only glanced at him calmly, then smiled and said, "The Crazy Demon Stick Technique is a good way to deal with the Xuanmen Sword, but..."
But I didn’t expect that Senior Brother Zhao Ming would actually teach Hui Wu all the Crazy Stick Techniques.
The Xuanmen sword technique is majestic in sword intent. Although it has many mysterious changes, at its core it is a straightforward sword technique.
The Crazy Stick Technique, as its name suggests, is a combination of unpredictable and unexpected moves that defy common sense. Often, opponents might expect the stick to strike them head-on, only to be met with a blow to the chest the next moment.
This is a bit difficult to deal with, Hui Yan couldn't help but worry for Du Ruo.
Although they were both direct disciples of Master Lieyang, Hui Yan, as his senior brother, knew only too well that Du Ruo lacked physical strength, so all the moves he practiced were continuous ones, which were extremely exhausting. If he missed an attack, he would have to rest for a long time before he could fight again.
Moreover, Master Lieyang had taught Du Ruo the Xuanmen Sword because he saw that he had an upright character. Now that he was faced with such an evil martial art as the Crazy Demonic Stick Technique, he was afraid that he would not be able to cope with it.
I'm afraid Du Ruo will lose this round!
Cheng Yu hit the ground with the Thunder Stick a few times, and then walked towards Du Ruo with messy steps like a drunk. But even though he looked drunk, his breathing was not disordered, and his breathing was extremely steady.
Looking at Du Ruo again, his breathing was already heavy. Seeing Cheng Qi approaching step by step, Du Ruo could only force himself to draw his sword to fight back, but he was unsure.
As the two men got closer, Du Ruo raised his sword and stabbed it, taking the initiative and aiming directly at Cheng Yu's lower body, but Cheng Yu just raised his foot and turned around, dodging it easily and casually.
Seeing Cheng Yu dodge, Du Ruo raised his sword, intending to hit Cheng Yu's waist, but the sword was only raised a few inches when Cheng Yu hit him on the shoulder with a club.
The blow was not light. Du Ruo felt a pain in his shoulder and could not move at all. He could not even lift his hand and could only let it hang down.
Oops, it’s broken!
Du Ruo, knowing something was amiss, withstood the pain and backed away, but Cheng Yu pressed on, swinging his long staff straight at his face. Du Ruo ducked, but his lower body wasn't stable enough, and even though he dodged the blow, he struggled to get up. With no other options, he used his waist to push himself up, rolling to Cheng Yu's side.
However, just when Du Ruo wanted to stand up, his left arm was weak and he could not move immediately. Cheng Qi was close in front of him, so he had no choice but to raise his leg and kick out.
But who knew that the kick missed, Cheng Yu turned around again and dodged with ease.
Seeing that his kick missed, Du Ruo hurriedly tried to take advantage of Cheng Yu's dodge and forced himself to stand up, but when he stood up, the Thunder Stick appeared in front of him.
Du Ruo lost.
"good!"
Just when the audience was speechless, Lingxiang stood up and shouted loudly. It was with this shout that the disciples realized that Cheng Yu had won another game, and they cheered immediately.
This fight was truly exciting. Du Ruo's Xuanmen sword technique was neat and free-spirited, Cheng Qi responded calmly and was able to come up with a way to deal with the situation in a very short time, and his Crazy Stick Technique was even more unrestrained and casual. Even Hui Yan had to admit this.
However, his direct disciple had already been defeated, Cheng Qi on the stage won two rounds alone, and Tai Shang Zong's fighting spirit had long been crushed. Who else could he choose to take on the challenge at this time?
