Chapter 419: Unable to defeat a strong opponent and falling behind
Seeing Shang Lu running towards Zhao Wuyang and Zhan Li, all the Taoists were extremely anxious, but the demon soldiers were difficult to deal with and they were unable to split themselves into two groups, so they could only worry.
When faced with the rushing Shang Lu, Zhan Li was only panicked for a moment, but he immediately calmed down and thought of a countermeasure.
However, what Zhan Li did not expect was that Zhao Wuyang actually wanted to face the enemy head-on.
he……
What does he want to do?
Is he crazy?
Looking at Zhao Wuyang who was pinching his fingers and making strange gestures, Zhan Li really couldn't find a more appropriate word except "seeking death".
What's more, Zhao Wuyang actually wanted him to hold Shang Lu back.
Oh!
How could Zhan Li have the ability to hold back a demon general like Shang Lu?
But even though he was puzzled, his body still involuntarily went forward to meet it.
Zhan Li didn't know what was wrong with him, why he would listen to the nonsense of a little kid, but he did it anyway.
Perhaps it was Zhao Wuyang’s determined eyes, or his unyielding face?
Zhan Li shook his head and put these distracting thoughts behind him.
Now is not the time to think about these things.
Zhan Li twisted his fingers and flew up. When he got close to Shang Lu, he saw an opportunity and stabbed at Shang Lu's throat with the Lotus Heart Sword.
The flash of lightning disappeared in an instant, and Shang Lu was unharmed, without even stopping.
On the other hand, Zhan Li, even though he tried his best, was still pushed back by Shang Lu and kept retreating.
As expected, there is a huge gap in strength, and it is simply a pipe dream to think of winning by strength.
Listening to Zhao Wuyang's voice behind him, Zhan Li was completely confused.
Seeing that Shang Lu was about to hit him in the face, he not only didn't run or hide, but he even had the mind to chant the incantation slowly.
"Tianji, Tianquan... Yuheng, Kaiyang..."
When in Yunmengze, Zhao Wuyang had severely injured Yinghuan with Bugang Tadou, which was obviously useful against the demons, so this time, he did the same.
Zhao Wuyang suffered a lot from that Bu Gang Ta Dou exercise, but after three years of training, he has become very proficient in it now.
But this time, it didn't go as he wished.
"Use the power of Tianchen to bring down the evil dome light!"
As the last spell came out, Zhao Wuyang shouted: "Zhanli, get out of the way!"
Zhan Li heard this and turned around and stepped aside, but...
But nothing happened...
Shang Lu seemed to be unaffected and charged straight towards Zhao Wuyang. With a wave of his giant arm, Zhao Wuyang flew out like a puppet with its strings cut.
Zhao Wuyang felt a sharp pain in his internal organs, a fishy-sweet taste in his mouth, and a surge of air in his chest that was jumping up and down like crazy, but he couldn't spit it out no matter what, and his delicate face turned purple.
Zhan Li took a few steps and hurried to Zhao Wuyang's side. He helped him sit up and pressed and soothed the large blood vessels on his back.
Finally, after spitting out a mouthful of blood, Zhao Wuyang was able to breathe and his complexion looked slightly better.
After all, Bugang Tadou relies on the power of the stars.
The reason why he was able to succeed in Yunmengze was because the water mirror did not isolate him from the world, it just staggered the time.
But the underworld is different.
The underworld is isolated from heaven and earth and forms a world of its own. Although there are Humenkou and Zhuanlundao, both of them have cut off the connection with the mortal world, so naturally they cannot borrow power from the stepping on the magic gate.
Zhao Wuyang didn't understand any of this, and even if he did, it was too late. Now, he could only gasp for air and endure the tearing pain in his chest.
But how could Shang Lu give him a chance to breathe?
Hearing the trembling under his feet, Zhan Li knew without looking back that Shanglu must be nearby.
If it was just Zhan Li alone, he could easily avoid it, but Zhao Wuyang was seriously injured and couldn't move at all. He couldn't just leave him alone and run away.
In the past, Zhan Li might have really done this, but now he is Ling Xiang's apprentice.
During these three years, Lingxiang not only gave Zhanli skills, but also taught him many principles of life.
The spiritual incense is to lead Zhanli to the human world.
Since Nanshanjun can do it, then Zhanli can do it too.
Lingxiang thought so and believed it firmly.
Zhao Wuyang tried hard to push Zhan Li away. He didn't want to implicate others, but he was seriously injured and couldn't exert any strength in his hands.
Zhan Li was also stubborn. Even though he knew Shang Lu was approaching from behind, he still pulled Zhao Wuyang, trying to take him away with him.
At this imminent moment, a strong wind suddenly arose, carrying with it dust and sand, making it impossible for people to open their eyes. Even Shang Lu was forced to stop.
Although Zhan Li felt puzzled, he did not delve into it.
Thanks to the sandstorm, they had a chance to catch their breath. While Shang Lu was confused, they took Zhao Wuyang and hid.
The wind and sand continued for a long time. When the dust gradually settled, only Zhan Li was left in front of Shang Lu.
Facing the huge monster in front of him, Zhan Li did not show any fear. Instead, his eyebrows were determined and his face was stern, which was quite similar to Lingxiang's serious expression.
Zhan Li has to face Shang Lu alone!
Shang Lu said nothing, and didn't even blink. He didn't care at all whether one person was missing.
There seemed to be a silent duel going on between the two.
As the last wisp of dust settled, Zhan Li suddenly moved his body and used the Lotus Heart Sword Intent to stab towards Shang Lu's forehead.
No matter how strong the defense is, the eyes will always be the weakest point.
Shang Lu remained unmoved. When Zhan Li got close to him, he dodged easily by just tilting his head. Then he swung his long arm and hit Zhan Li in the face.
Zhan Li had been prepared for this. He used the Calmness Technique with his left hand and instantly opened a magic circle to welcome Shang Lu.
This punch was like hitting cotton. Zhan Li took the opportunity to turn sideways, pulled out a piece of talisman paper, pinched the fire formula, and threw it towards Shang Lu's neck.
The explosion came suddenly, and Zhanli also took advantage of the airflow to escape with a few flips.
Looking at Shanglu again, he just staggered a few steps and then stopped moving. When the dust settled, he was still unharmed.
Sure enough, ordinary means could not do anything to him!
The series of moves were neither painful nor itchy, but they seemed to arouse Shang Lu's interest. He brushed his neck that was blown off, jumped up without warning, and punched Zhan Li.
This time it was much faster than before. In an instant, smoke and dust rose up and the ground shook continuously.
When the dust settled, a huge pit was revealed on the ground. Cracks were winding and intertwined, converging into the pit. Standing in the pit was Shang Lu alone.
The impact of this punch was quite wide. Even though Zhan Li was agile and managed to dodge the punch, he was still hit in the ribs by the gravel in the aftermath.
Zhan Li was in great pain. He leaned on the ground, covering the painful area with his hands, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
Lingxiang once said that knowing pain is a good thing, but now is obviously not a good time.
Shang Lu had no intention of letting Zhan Li go, so he picked up a huge rock and threw it at Zhan Li.
Zhan Li did not dodge in a hurry. He adjusted his breathing and waited until the boulder came close. Then he jumped up, used the boulder as leverage, and somersaulted to avoid it.
As soon as it landed, Shang Lu's fist was already within reach.
Zhan Li had no choice but to cross his arms to protect his face while twisting his waist to try to dodge. However, he was unable to turn around in time and was still hit hard by Shang Lu.
A loud noise came from far away and Zhanli was smashed hard on the broken stone, and dust rose up.
