Chapter 540 The Hardest Battle
When he saw a giant hand falling from the sky and heading straight towards him, Yun Chen couldn't help but curse:
"Holy crap! Isn't this too shabby?? What the hell is this??"
She pushed Shen Youning to a safe place and dodged the giant hand's attack with an agile backflip.
But the giant hand seemed to be very familiar with her and could predict her inner thoughts, blocking her escape route in advance.
She was forced to jump and dodge again, and during this time she took the time to look up along the giant arm to see what it was.
But behind the giant hand, there was a faint outline of an extremely huge body, hiding behind the dark clouds in the sky.
There were continuous low roars coming from behind the clouds, which made Yun Chen's scalp tingle.
She fought while fleeing, and ran into Ye Yan and others who came to help.
Several people quickly gathered together as before, and Ye Yan gave an order:
"Brothers! Ninth Company, quick attack! Go!"
Everyone immediately formed a familiar formation. Hua Jue led the attack, Xun Jian assisted from the left, Xiao Liu attacked from behind, Ye Yan looked out in front and commanded, while Yun Chen led the main attack. Luo Dongdong joined her to cover the rear.
Nine times in a row, they quickly disrupted, attacked, and retreated, each time making the giant hand lose its direction and suffer a setback. Angry roars were heard from the sky, and the giant hand began to fight back frantically.
Yun Chen and the others were no bigger than a fingernail of the giant hand, and they were quickly beaten to pieces. Their formation was gone, and they lay on the ground wailing.
Hua refused to accept this and jumped up from the ground again, pointing at the giant hand and cursing:
"What's the point of being mysterious? Show your true form and fight me one on one!!"
When Ye Yan heard this, he rushed over and blocked Hua Jue's mouth, cursing:
"Grandpa! Calm down! One hand is enough for me! If his true form comes out, won't it scare me to death?"
Xun Jian scratched his head worriedly, "It's not that we're not strong enough to fight, it's that we don't have any weapons!"
"Yes!" Luo Dongdong continued, "How can we fight with bare hands?"
Xiao Liu wiped the blood from his nose and looked at Yun Chen with a complaining look:
"That's right, Brother Yun, look at you. You only burned clothes, houses, gold and silver ingots for us, but you didn't even think of burning some weapons!"
"Fuck, this is all my fault?" Yun Chen was so tired that he lay on the ground and gasped for breath. "I didn't even have time to burn it myself!"
After saying that, she turned over and rushed out again to fight with the giant hand.
For some reason, she intuitively felt that the giant hand was coming for her, and only she could deal with this guy.
She used her excellent lightness skills to flee, circling with her giant hand while constantly searching for weapons to fight with, and shouted to the others:
"Help me find a good guy!"
Everyone looked around anxiously.
Doji shouted, "Brother Yun! Catch it!" and threw something towards Yun Chen.
Yun Chen raised his hand to catch it, it was a pair of fire tongs.
She was suddenly at a loss for words: "Doji, this won't work!"
"What about this?" the old lady shouted and threw the crutch towards Yun Chen.
Yun Chen kicked it away helplessly: "This won't work either!"
"What about this?"
"What about this?"
"Throw it!"
“Try it!”
For a moment, everyone gathered all their strength and threw everything they could think of to Yun Chen.
What about the big iron pot in the Monk family, the black cat that bared its fangs and claws and cursed its mother, even Shen Youning's handkerchief, Mrs. Huo's jade pendant...
All kinds of weird things were flying around, but none of them could be used as weapons by Yun Chen.
She was deeply moved by everyone's full support, but was also confused by all the messy things and could not see the way forward. She fell down and was about to be hit hard by the giant hand when a sharp blade suddenly flew in the air and stopped in front of Yun Chen with a "buzz".
The black and red sword body trembled slightly, and the deep texture of the hilt was filled with the blood of the dead souls.
At the same time, a majestic and cold voice scolded:
"Hold it steady! Don't be timid! The more timid you are, the quicker your death!"
Yun Chen drew his Bloodthirsty Sword, dodged the giant hand's attack with a swift flip, looked in the direction of the sound, and shouted excitedly:
“Master!”
Jiang Ming stood tall with his arms folded, still expressionless as before, and just nodded lightly.
Holding the most familiar sword in his hand, Yun Chen immediately gained confidence and began to attack the giant hand with all his strength.
Unfortunately, compared to the giant hand, she was too small, just like an ant jumping around at the feet of an elephant, and it was difficult for her to cause much damage to the giant hand.
"No, we have to find a way to charge in, and we need a mount!"
Just when Yun Chen was worried, she heard the loud neighing of a wild horse, and a black shadow flew over the thick fog, rushed straight to Yun Chen, and lifted her up steadily.
The dragon in the water carried Yun Chen on its back with its agile body and rushed towards the giant hand without any fear.
Yun Chen was completely stunned. He hugged the dragon's neck and called out in surprise and sobs:
"Dog Xiaoliu!"
The strong horse smiled shyly and said in a childish voice like a grandmother:
"Hey, I've been waiting for you here for a long time!"
"Good horse! I'm sorry! I did it myself... I..."
"It does hurt, but silly boy, I'm happier than anything else to be able to keep you alive—hold on tight, let's have another fight!"
"Let's have a fight!!"
Yun Chen felt a surge of heroic spirit in his chest. He let out a loud roar and without any hesitation, he attacked the giant hand fiercely without hesitation.
Every time she stabbed the giant hand, a scream came from behind the black clouds in the sky, and the giant hand and her body would strangely shrink by two points.
After succeeding dozens of times, the giant hand suddenly retracted, and the huge body behind the dark clouds in the sky seemed to have lost its air, turning into a human figure and falling straight from the sky.
For a moment, everyone in the audience widened their eyes, waiting to see the giant's true form, but they saw the man skillfully perform Yun Chen's signature knee roll, rolling up from the ground, and it was Yun Chen's face.
The whole audience was stunned.
Before she could react to what was happening, she saw the "Yun Chen" opposite her smile sinisterly, and out of thin air, a long sword made of human bones appeared, which she carried on her shoulder. She proudly announced her name:
"I am the number one evil god and demon killer in the universe - Demon Slayer!"
As soon as the words fell, the whole audience fell silent.
Xiaoliu was so embarrassed that he couldn't help but shiver, and it looked more like he had peed.
After a moment of silence, Yun Chen spurred his horse fiercely, drew his sword and charged, cursing:
"Don't say such disgusting things to my face!"
Yun Chen quickly engaged in a fight with Demon Slayer, and soon the battle became a close one, with both sides evenly matched.
Yun Chen swung his sword non-stop, his face full of awe, but inside he was feeling increasingly uneasy, wondering who the hell was this guy?!
Not only does he look exactly like her, but all his martial arts moves are the same!
Even the meaningless secret manuals that Yun Chen had not been able to master before, he now knows them all with this ghost destroyer!
Yun Chen was riding a horse, so he should have the advantage. But the demon's movements were much faster and stronger than Yun Chen's, and he almost stabbed Yun Chen's vitals several times.
The ghost killer seemed to see that Yun Chen was feeling weak, and laughed sinisterly:
"How did you know I was waiting for forty days for the Soul Devouring Pill to poison you and then come out to steal my body? Not bad, you actually thought of using the Elephant Tomb Bone-Dissolving Mud to counteract the Soul Devouring Pill's toxicity. But unfortunately, you're too weak and can't defeat me. Surrender!"
Yun Chen was completely confused and had no time to ask any further questions. He just cursed, "Fuck you!" and launched his killing move even more fiercely.
Ye Yan, Miaomiao, Yun Zhongjun and Shen Youning... everyone below kept shouting to cheer for Yun Chen.
Shen Youning's voice calmed Yun Chen's panicked heart a little:
"Chen'er! She is your inner demon! A part of your soul! Don't be afraid of her! Only if you defeat her can you leave here!"
Yun Chen suddenly realized what this "Demon Slayer" was! Wasn't it the guy that was screaming in her mind every day?
All the past events flashed before my eyes, and all the lost memories emerged in connection.
From the time he went deep into the Black Scale Cavalry camp to search for the defense map, and witnessed the enemy slaughtering and eating the people of the Nan Kingdom, he developed a demonic root in his heart;
Later, when she married into the Yan family, the devil "Yun Chen" reappeared after being severely injured physically and mentally;
Yan Shijiu meticulously designed a trap at the Forbidden God Mountain... In front of the Yong'an Palace, Ghost Slayer completely took over her body and fought with Huo Gannian and others...
She remembered it all and understood it all!
The demon slayer is the most evil part of her soul! He has been waiting for her to die from the poison of the soul-devouring pill, and then use this evil soul to occupy her body!
So that’s it… So that’s it!
She understood everything, but at the same time, the huge impact of the facts distracted her for a moment, and she was stabbed in the chest by the Demon Slayer and fell off her horse, landing heavily on the ground.
Ghost Slayer swung the human bone knife in his hand in a cool manner, walked towards Yun Chen slowly, smiled, and said jokingly:
"You're too slow. Even without the Soul Devouring Pill, you can't beat me. I know all the techniques and moves in the Wuyi Secret Manual. Idiot."
Yun Chen covered his chest and retreated backwards with difficulty.
She knew that she was no match for Demon Slayer, and Demon Slayer knew all the tricks and moves she knew.
Fighting against myself, I was completely restrained and had no other options. This was the toughest battle I had ever fought.
Moreover, Demon Slayer is several times stronger than her, and he is very proficient in those moves from the meaningless secret manual that she cannot learn.
Wait, meaningless secret book?
Yun Chen suddenly thought of a question:
When she was alive, she was not able to practice the Wuyi Secret Book well because the Wuyi Secret Book had a major characteristic, which was that studying it would cause disorder in the meridians of the whole body, making her extremely uncomfortable.
She had heard Shan Ji say before that those who had mastered the Wuyi secret book could even relocate important lifelines such as the heart and hide them anywhere in the body, so that no matter how the enemy attacked, they would only suffer flesh and blood and be unable to do anything to them.
Thinking of this, Yun Chen pretended to be afraid and secretly looked at Demon Slayer.
During the battle just now, Demon Slayer was actually injured a lot and was stabbed in the vitals by Yun Chen.
But the Demon Slayers all remained calm, it seemed that they had completely mastered the meaningless secret technique and had hidden their lifeblood.
That’s interesting, Yun Chen thought.
She and Demon Slayer are originally one soul. Since Demon Slayer is very familiar with her and can see through all her martial arts, she can also see through Demon Slayer.
If it were her, after learning all the meaningless secrets, where would she hide her lifeline in the most unexpected and safest place?
Yun Chen thought for a moment and suddenly had the answer in his mind.
