Chapter 045 Sword Twenty-Three!
The biggest problem with Ni Kun’s powerful skills is that he cannot practice them.
Every move required a lot of effort, so I couldn't practice at all and couldn't accurately grasp the specific power of each move at different consumption levels. Whenever I encountered an enemy, I could only follow my feelings.
Once you encounter an enemy type you have never seen before, it becomes a whole new test.
Like this time, Mao Tai's flying sword was too fast, and even Zhu Yuyan couldn't react at close range. However, Ni Kun prepared in advance and launched the Shenluo Tianzheng in time, trying to use the range advantage of this move to deflect the flying sword. His response was timely and his thinking was correct, but it was his first time encountering a real flying sword, and he didn't estimate its power correctly.
But there's nothing he can do about it, because he can't practice his ultimate move.
Resurrection and start over, time goes back to two minutes ago.
Shi Feixuan was trying to catch her breath and holding her sword in alert. Zhu Yuyan, Kan Kan, and Wen Caiting were standing in front of Ni Kun. Mao Tai was scolding He Biweng who had just started crying.
Ni Kun heaved a sigh of relief:
"Shinra Tensei can certainly make up for my slow reaction and inability to see the flying sword clearly, but unfortunately this move is a repulsive force field that exerts force evenly in all directions, and it can't stop a flying sword that focuses on one point. This time, Kong Dajia was resurrected, and the back and forth consumed forty days of life!
"But it's okay. Anyway, every time I consume a thousand days of life, I can gain one more ultimate move. In fact, it can't be considered a waste of death... The best thing is that no one knows that I was defeated once. My prestige is still unbreakable!"
Ni Kun comforted himself for a while and began to ponder:
"But then again, the problem of being too slow to react and not being able to see the flying sword clearly still exists. If we passively intercept it...
"Forget it. Since we've already seen a real flying sword , we can just use the Distortion Eye to twist Mao Tai's head off."
He stopped talking nonsense with Mao Tai and stared at Mao Tai with his eyes slightly narrowed. He was about to burn his lifespan and activate the twisted magic eye.
However, before his pupil power could be activated, Mao Tai seemed to have sensed something. He shrank his body in a start, and moved in a flash, using Zhu Yuyan to block Ni Kun's sight.
Without waiting for Zhu Yuyan to dodge, Mao Tai waved his sleeves and drew his sword without saying a word.
A yellow light flashed, and Zhu Yuyan, who was in a straight line with Ni Kun and Mao Tai, was pierced through the heart by the flying sword in an instant.
The flying sword burst out from his back again, bringing with it a rain of blood, and pierced Ni Kun's heart.
“…”Ni Kun was speechless.
Well, the power of the Twisted Demon Eye can indeed be avoided, and it can also be blocked by obstacles.
However, the magic eye was activated without any warning, and it was hidden and fast, so it would not easily fail. But no one expected that Mao Tai's perception was so sharp that he could predict life-and-death crises and avoid danger!
Well, he is a cultivator after all, so even if Mao Tai’s level is not high, he cannot be judged by common sense.
What's more, even ordinary warriors, such as grandmaster-level masters, have the ability to predict danger with their spiritual perception and avoid it, so they will basically not be ambushed.
But now, the strategy of taking the initiative won't work.
Even the Distorted Demon Eye that locked onto the line of sight and activated instantly was avoided in advance. With Ni Kun's current reaction speed, skills with pre-swings like Ten Thousand Swords Returning to the Origin, Great Power Dragon, and Super Railgun were useless.
Even if he used the "Infinite Sword Making" to copy the flying swords, with Mao Tai's strong martial arts and the ability to "sense danger and avoid", he might be able to dodge Ni Kun's flying sword, but Ni Kun couldn't dodge Mao Tai's. Besides, the copied flying swords would only be counterfeit and pirated, and they couldn't stop Mao Tai's genuine flying sword at all...
Of course, the Twisted Demon Eye also has the ability of "clairvoyance". Its sight can penetrate obstacles, lock onto targets through objects, and activate pupil power.
However, if I activate "Clairvoyance" to kill the enemy through objects, I don't know how much of my life will be consumed.
Resurrect again.
Looking at Mrs. Mao who was scolding Hebi Weng, Ni Kun sighed in his heart: "This is forcing me to pretend to be a big one!"
After careful calculation, with his current reaction speed, among the ten big moves, there are only two that can guarantee to accurately lock onto Mao Tai, and prevent him from exerting the power of the flying sword and the agility of his body movements, and can also ignore his ability to "sense danger and avoid it".
One is the Fusion Burial, but this move consumes too much energy and will take at least a year. If used in a terrain like Lingyun Cave, it will only kill both the enemy and us, so Ni Kun does not use it.
Second...
Anyway, he has already consumed a lot of life today, so Ni Kun is too lazy to care about it anymore.
As long as we can kill Mao Tai and seize his flying sword and even his martial arts, we might be able to get it back.
Be willing to give and give, only by giving can you gain!
Ni Kun comforted himself in his heart and didn't want to take the initiative. He didn't even look at his own life value. He just talked to Mao Tai calmly and casually at the same pace as before.
As he was speaking, Mao Tai whistled again and waved his sleeves to draw his sword.
A yellow light flashed, leaving a blurry afterimage on the retinas of Shi Feixuan, Kan Kan, Wen Caiting, and He Biweng. It instantly penetrated the demonic force field set up by Zhu Yuyan and was about to pass by her cheek.
Right at this moment.
Time suddenly slowed down.
No, it's not that time has slowed down.
If time slows down, the thoughts of people caught in it will also slow down, or even become unconscious.
But now everyone in the cave has not been affected in any way and can think normally. Their eyes can also receive information and see everything that is happening in front of them.
Then everyone saw a strange scene:
The yellow light, which was originally so fast that only its afterimage could be seen by Kankan, Shi Feixuan and others, and even Zhu Yuyan was unable to react in time, suddenly hovered beside Zhu Yuyan's cheek, revealing its true appearance.
It was a small sword only one foot and three inches long, with only the blade but no hilt.
The small sword was right next to Zhu Yuyan's cheek, moving forward slowly and bit by bit like a snail.
In front of and around the sword's edge, there are translucent "folds" visible to the naked eye. These are the ripples in the air caused by the flying sword breaking through the air.
And now, even the air ripples have "solidified" and, like the flying sword, are spreading to the surroundings very slowly like a snail.
There was also a strand of Zhu Yuyan's hair and a corner of her clothes that were blown by the sword wind, which also remained fluttering and motionless.
Everything was almost frozen.
Flying swords, air ripples, hair, clothes...
Zhu Yuyan, Wan Wan, Wen Caiting, Shi Feixuan, He Biweng and Mao Tai.
They all seem like things frozen in amber.
Only Ni Kun's body was emitting brilliant golden light.
Amidst the flashing golden light, a figure covered in golden light stepped out from Ni Kun's body.
The figure looked exactly like , not even slightly illusory, but as if he were a real entity. His entire body was glowing with golden light, emitting an indestructible and sharp sword energy.
This move is exactly "Sword Twenty-Three"!
Sword 23: Basic consumption of 100 days of life, lasting 10 seconds. No upper limit. The more life consumed, the longer the control time and the larger the range. [10 days/second]
Ni Kun activated "Sword Twenty-Three", instantly burning one hundred days of his lifespan and solidifying the entire cave space, as well as all matter in the space, for ten seconds.
In this solidified space.
No matter what material, it cannot move.
Even Ni Kun's own body could not move.
Only the primordial spirit can be free from any restrictions.
Seeing this scene, Shi Feixuan's heart was in turmoil and her mind was almost blank.
If the space had not been solidified and her body had not been fixed, unable to change even her expression, she would have probably lost her fairy image by now, and would have looked shocked and dumbfounded with her eyes wide open.
Even Zhu Yuyan, Kankan, and Wen Caiting, who had already been stunned by the "Great and Mighty Heavenly Dragon" and the art of flying swords, could not help but feel waves in their hearts at this moment.
Especially Queen Yin, even with her confidence, she couldn't help but feel shaken at this moment: In front of a god like Ni Kun, do she really have a chance to turn the tables?
Hebi Weng was terrified: This person is actually a true god. We were actually against the true god just now! Senior brother, don't blame me for not avenging you. It's really this enemy. I'm afraid even the Holy Lord can't do anything about it!
Mrs. Mao was also shocked and shouted wildly:
"The soul is leaving the body! This little thief can actually leave the body!"
He tried to mobilize his true Qi to make himself move, but his body and true Qi were completely still and stagnant. No matter how he mobilized his mental skills, he could not shake the true Qi in the slightest.
He couldn't even blink or stare.
They could only watch as Ni Kun took a step forward and walked past Zhu Yuyan. At the same time, he leisurely raised his hand and took down the flying sword that was floating next to Zhu Yuyan's cheek and had almost completely stopped.
"My flying sword!"
Mao Tai shouted in his heart and tried to activate the flying sword, but his connection with the flying sword had long been frozen in this solidified space, becoming vague.
When Ni Kun took off the flying sword and pointed his finger at the sword, a golden light flashed, and the last vague connection was severed.
Mao Tai was filled with despair as he watched Ni Kun walk up to him with a smile on his face. He looked at him casually, then put his fingers together to make a sword and pointed it at his forehead.
Silently, Ni Kun's sword had pierced into Mao Tai's forehead.
Although there was no injury on Mao Tai's brow, his soul felt a tearing pain and his consciousness quickly dissipated.
"It can actually cut directly into the soul... How could there be such a sword technique in the mortal world?"
Mao Tai was filled with resentment and resentment: "It's a pity that Master didn't come to this world with me..."
Just as he thought of this, Mao Tai's soul completely dissipated and his consciousness fell into darkness and silence.
