Chapter 175: God's Tribulation VS Sword Twenty-Three!
On the East Peak of Mount Hua, there are lightning and thunder, and sword energy is everywhere.
The sound of metal clashing was as dense as rain, and the sound of thunder was deafening.
Lightning illuminated the night sky, and the sound of the explosion shook the sea of clouds, blowing out white air waves visible to the naked eye, like waves on the sea, spreading in all directions and crashing violently.
The sword energy and knife aura splashed down like raindrops, cutting and shattering the solid rocks of the mountain.
A series of shocking huge cracks appeared on the ridge leading to the summit of the East Peak.
The bridge-like stone ridge beam continued to shatter and collapse.
When the structural fulcrums of the ridge were completely destroyed by the sword energy, the ridge collapsed immediately. In the blink of an eye, a crack more than ten feet wide and hundreds of feet deep appeared, completely cutting off the way to the top of the mountain.
From now on, unless a cableway is built, ordinary people will no longer have the opportunity to climb this "Chaoyang Peak" to watch the sunrise over the sea of clouds.
Watching the lightning blade fighting against the sword energy blue dragon, listening to the shocking roar, Zhao Min and others were forced to retreat again and again by the continuous white air waves. They were dazzled for a moment, as if watching a battle between gods.
Tsunade, Zhu Yuyan, and Dongfang Bai were resisting the gusts of air that were coming at them like waves, and they stood still like rooted bamboos, watching Ni Kun's battle nervously and confidently.
Tsunade was even eager to try and wanted to rush up and have a good fight.
Unfortunately, the terrain was too narrow and the stone ridge leading to the top of the mountain was destroyed, leaving no way to go.
Tsunade could only suppress her itchy hands and stared with wide eyes as she watched Ni Kun's sleeves fluttering and thunder and lightning unleashed.
kill!
Xu Fu's white hair fluttered, his eyes were glaring and he was shouting angrily, while his fingers and palms changed, he displayed one brilliant secret technique after another.
Ten thousand swords return to their origin!
Dry ice palm!
Snow Blood Claws!
Cut off the snow and open the sky!
Blood, fire and evil force!
Emperor Tian’s Thunder!
Ten thousand blades pierce the clouds!
He knew so many unique skills that any one of them he could perform was what martial artists dreamed of, and was enough to establish a school of martial arts.
Unfortunately, no matter how many changes he made and how powerful his magical powers were, Ni Kun just remained indifferent. He controlled the lightning and wielded the sword.
The dark green dragon formed by countless pine needles driven by the Ten Thousand Swords Returning to their Origin, released all its sword energy in the collision with the Thunder Tribulation Sword Force, and turned into charcoal powder, disappearing into ashes.
The ice power, fire power and even the mixed power of ice and fire created by the Dry Ice Palm, Snow Blood Claw, Snow Breaking Sky, Blood and Fire Evil Emperor, Emperor Sky Thunder, Ten Thousand Blades Piercing the Clouds and other unique skills all collapsed under the thunder and sword energy.
Xu Fu even displayed many long-distance martial arts that he had not used for a long time, but still none of them could break through the thunder and sword force.
Ni Kun's judgment was correct, Xu Fu's skills had indeed declined.
Thanks to his Bloody Evil Searching Hand that day, Xu Fu's upper limit of power was permanently reduced by 10%.
Ni Kun, with the help of Xu Fu's human-shaped tonic pill's energy, blood, and power, broke through the Martial Saint realm in one fell swoop and cultivated the body of an initial Martial Saint. His five spiritual bloodlines were also greatly improved. Later, in the superhero world, he swallowed the fragments of Thor's hammer and refined the Thunder Tribulation Prison-Suppressing Sword Gang.
His strength has more than doubled compared to when Yangzhi and Xu Fu first fought.
As one side gained strength while the other side lost strength, he could now fight Xu Fu on equal terms with his own strength, or even have a slight advantage!
At this moment, Ni Kun did not stop, controlling the thunder and lightning, and pressing forward step by step.
When he reached the broken ridge, he did not stop. Instead, he walked calmly across the crack that was more than ten feet wide and hundreds of feet deep, as if he was riding the wind and stepping on the air.
It’s not that Ni Kun’s earth spirit bloodline is enough to support him to hang in the air for hundreds of feet.
If you observe carefully, you will find that when he walks, there is a faint blue light flickering on the soles of his feet.
Yes, he used a flying sword.
Although he has always despised the way of flying with a sword by stepping on it and using it as a skateboard, the serious sword masters all integrate their body and sword and fly by turning into sword light.
But in order not to disrupt the current rhythm of leisurely and pressing steps and to continue to put urgent pressure on Xu Fu, he had to resort to this last resort. He secretly controlled the two green bamboo swords, which flew forward alternately in the rhythm of his footsteps and served as stepping stones for him.
Of course, no one discovered this little secret.
Zhao Min, Zhu Yuyan and others who were watching the battle were already immersed in the fierce battle between him and Xu Fu, which was like a battle between gods.
He was so focused on watching Xu Fu's endless and seemingly endless magical skills, and Ni Kun's majestic figure, who was covered in lightning and pressing forward step by step like a god from heaven, that he had no time to pay attention to what was under his feet.
They all thought that he was really riding the wind and walking in the air.
Xu Fu was forced to use all his strength by the lightning sword energy that shuttled through the sky and was getting closer and closer . He was too busy to focus on dismantling Ni Kun's sword energy, so how could he have time to look at his feet?
As for Li Xiuning, the only person on Xu Fu's side, she just stared at Ni Kun's face, which was calm, indifferent and awe-inspiring under the lightning.
Although he warned himself more than once not to be too sentimental, Ni Kun came here not for her, but only for Xu Fu.
But as she watched Ni Kun approaching step by step, no matter how rational she was, she couldn't help but feel a little bit of expectation and emotion in her heart.
Especially at a certain moment, when Ni Kun seemed to glance in her direction, with the corners of his lips slightly raised in a faint smile, Li Xiuning's heart was beating even more, and she was overwhelmed by an indescribable great sense of happiness, which made her head dizzy.
Then she really felt dizzy and her head was spinning.
It turned out to be a green snake. It appeared on the edge of the cliff behind Xuanbing at some point. It swung its tail, wrapped around Xuanbing, and dragged him down from the top of the mountain.
It was Xiaoqing.
Just now, she followed Ni Kun and stepped into the thick frost fog. She has not appeared since then, but she has already followed Ni Kun's instructions and transformed into a small green snake. With the snake demon's innate stealth instinct, she swam around on the steep cliff and came to the bottom of the platform on the top of the mountain.
After that, she had been lurking on the cliff below the black ice until Xu Fu's attention was drawn to Ni Kun's relentless pursuit, and he no longer had time to pay attention to the black ice that froze Li Xiuning. Only then, after receiving Ni Kun's signal, Xiao Qing turned into a huge green snake, leaped onto the platform on the top of the mountain in a flash, rolled up the black ice with her tail, and swam down the steep cliff quickly, dragging it along.
That’s right, Ni Kun’s mysterious smile that made Li Xiuning almost dizzy with happiness was actually for Xiaoqing…
It was not until Xiaoqing dragged Xuanbing and swam down the cliff for more than a hundred feet and then swam quickly towards Zhao Min and others that Xu Fu reacted and realized that the hostages had been taken away.
But even though he was furious, there was nothing he could do.
Without the constraints of Li Xiuning who was too close to Xu Fu, Ni Kun was free to go all out.
Crack!
Amidst the deafening roar of thunder that seemed to tear the sky apart.
Thousands of lightning sword auras, each hundred in a group, bombarded Xu Fu from all directions like a rainstorm, blasting the stone platform on the top of the mountain where Xu Fu was standing into powder, shattering the ground and peeling off the cliff.
Large chunks of rubble continued to fall off from all sides of the platform and crashed down the cliff.
Xu Fu used various methods to hold on.
But he could barely block the sword energy that was bombarding him, but he could not block the sword energy that was bombarding the surroundings of the stone platform.
Soon, the stone platform where Xu Fu stood was only a few feet in radius, like a lonely stalagmite standing on the top of the East Peak.
Xu Fu had completely lost his room for maneuver.
He could only stand on the top of the "stalagmite" which was only a few feet in radius, and face the thunder and sword energy coming from all directions.
Ni Kun was not in a hurry to destroy the stalagmite, but kept urging the thunder and sword energy to wear down Xu Fu.
Xu Fu intended to use the Seven Ultimate Situations to escape from this cage-like predicament.
But every time he wanted to use it, he couldn't help but recall the pain of that day in Yangzhi, when he was escaping with Qi Wu Jue Jing, Ni Kun grabbed his original form in the form of gas with a bloody giant claw, and tore off one of his arms and half of his shoulder with one claw.
Xu Fu knew that his Seven Unbreakable Situations were not a perfect escape skill in front of Ni Kun.
Not only can he lock onto his position, he can even damage his own gaseous form, which theoretically cannot be harmed by any attack.
That injury left Xu Fu with a deep psychological trauma.
So after falling into such an unfavorable situation, he actually hesitated and did not dare to decisively use the Seven Ultimate Situations to escape from this unfavorable situation first.
Another fight.
Ni Kun was only ten feet away from Xu Fu.
For these two powerful warriors, their attack distance is tens or even hundreds of feet.
A distance of ten feet is almost like close combat.
Xu Fu didn't like close combat.
But when he found that Ni Kun stopped when he was ten feet away from him and no longer pressed forward, but only controlled the lightning sword energy that was like a heavenly calamity to bombard him from a distance, Xu Fu suddenly had a flash of inspiration and figured out something.
"Ni Kun, it turns out you don't know how to fight in close combat!"
After realizing this, Xu Fu was overjoyed.
With cold mist all over his body, thick black ice armor condensed. Xu Fu sealed himself in the black ice and activated the Immortal Step. He flew towards Ni Kun like lightning. At the same time, he fired Wanren Chuanyun and Wanjian Guizong like crazy. Ice blades and sword energy shot out from the sky like crazy to block the incoming thunder and sword energy.
Amid the shrill and continuous sound of metal clashing and the deafening sound of thunder and lightning, Xu Fu's black ice armor was shattered into pieces by the sword force. However, before the armor was completely shattered, he crossed the ten-foot distance and came in front of Ni Kun. With the five fingers of his left hand forming claws, he swung out claw shadows that covered many of Ni Kun's important acupoints on his upper body. With his right hand, he formed a knife and swung out a mysterious knife mark.
"Ni Kun, I miscalculated. If I had known you wouldn't..."
Before he finished speaking, a bright silver iron fist gleaming with metallic luster suddenly broke through the layers of Xu Fu's claw shadows and punched Xu Fu in the face:
"Don't get me wrong, I just don't like close combat, not that I can't do it!"
Shanhai Fist Classics, the boxing that conquers the world!
Bang!
Amidst the teeth-grinding explosion, Xu Fu flew backwards at a speed even faster than when he came. Half of his face was smashed to pieces, his nose was shattered like a rotten tomato, his lips drooped, and most of his teeth fell out. He was in so much pain that he couldn't even scream.
The reason why the fire fist was not used was because Xu Fu had the blood of the Phoenix and was not afraid of fire. He also knew the "Iron Refining Hands", a unique fire skill that could melt iron with his bare hands.
Besides, Ni Kun also suffered a blow from Xu Fu before he hit Xu Fu with a punch.
Although Xu Fu's claw force was broken by Ni Kun's punch, before he was blown away, his hand knife had already slashed between Ni Kun's chest and abdomen. He actually made a crack about an inch deep and a foot long on Ni Kun's chest and abdomen flesh, which was as tough as bulletproof steel plates when he turned into an iron man.
Ni Kun looked down at the long cracks on his chest and abdomen, sneered, and with a thought, he turned into a wooden man. Under the nourishment of powerful vitality, the shocking cracks on his chest and abdomen healed rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Xu Fu also fell back onto the stalagmite platform, and only let out a shrill scream after he landed on the ground.
But Ni Kun would not listen to his screams and shouts, and the thunder and sword energy did not stop at all and continued to bombard him like a rainstorm.
Xu Fu endured the pain, and while mobilizing the essence of the phoenix blood to heal his injuries, he also tried his best to resist the thunder and sword energy.
His facial injuries were extremely severe, half of his face was blown to pieces and his cheekbone was shattered.
The force of the punch blew out one of his eyes and almost penetrated into his brain.
Thanks to his profound skills, strong protective qi, knowledge of Tai Chi power, and his ability to unload force, he was able to prevent the force of the punch from entering his brain.
Even so, he still felt dizzy, and the various skills that he usually used were not working smoothly at this time. He was almost hit by the thunder sword that broke through his defense and cut his body.
At the critical moment of life and death, Xu Fu did not hesitate to consume a large amount of phoenix blood and essence to recover from his injuries at full speed.
By the time his injuries had fully recovered and his face had returned to normal, he looked a year or two older, and his hair had become even silverier.
"Ni Kun!"
Seeing Ni Kun standing leisurely ten feet away with his hands behind his back, waving his sleeves to scatter thunder and lightning, as if he was sure to defeat him, Xu Fu felt angry and his heart turned cold.
His own power was reduced by 10%, and his body aged by ten years. However, Ni Kun was stronger than half a month ago, and his strength had more than doubled.
He thought he had found his weakness and was going to regain the upper hand with close combat, but he didn't expect that Ni Kun was also a good close combatant and used the Shanhai Fist.
His body can even be transformed into an indestructible iron man. After being injured, he can quickly recover by turning into a wooden man, and it looks like he has not consumed any energy. This is even more unreasonable than his own immortal body...
Xu Fu no longer knew how to kill Ni Kun.
No, let alone killing Ni Kun, it is unknown whether I can escape from him and save my life.
Although Xu Fu knew very well that if he used the Seven Ultimate Situations, he would still have a chance to escape.
But if that happened, he would at least be caught by Ni Kun like last time, which would reduce some of his skills and make him ten years older.
He was already no match for Ni Kun in the first place. If his skills were further reduced and he aged ten years, how would he ever have a chance to kill him again?
If Ni Kun is not killed, the master's mission cannot be completed...
That outcome is worse than death!
Forced into a desperate situation, Xu Fu finally made up his mind to fight to the death.
Even though that last resort would come at an extremely tragic price and go against Xu Fu's nature of cherishing life and fearing death, in order to avoid a fate worse than death, Xu Fu had no choice but to take a gamble.
"Ni Kun, I admit that your strength today is above mine. Almost all of my methods are useless to you. However, I still have a trick that I have never used before. Today, I will make an exception on you!"
Xu Fu screamed fiercely, and when he finished speaking, his face aged rapidly. In the blink of an eye, he looked twenty years older. His tall and straight body shrank and became hunched, like a skinny old man in his seventies or eighties.
Then, a figure with the same facial features as Xu Fu, but with black hair, crystal skin, tall and slender figure, and a vigorous look, stepped out of his body.
After taking this step, Ni Kun suddenly realized that his movements seemed to slow down.
The lightning blades flying all over the sky seemed to slow down.
Inch by inch, like a snail, it moves forward slowly, so slow that it makes people anxious.
The young Xu Fu, however, showed no signs of abnormality. He put his hands behind his back, stepped into the air, and ran towards Ni Kun with big strides:
"Ni Kun, this is the last of my Four Tribulations of the Sacred Heart - the Tribulation of the Gods!
"This move uses the soul as a weapon, and specifically attacks the enemy's soul. After being hit by this move, your body will remain intact, but your soul will be destroyed. From now on, you will be a thoughtless and unconscious walking corpse. I will refine your body into a divine beast puppet to relieve my hatred!
“Do you feel like the pace has slowed down?
"No, it's not that you've become slower, it's just that the speed of my soul is as fast as lightning!"
In the voice transmission of the soul, the young version of Xu Fu strode up to Ni Kun and pointed his finger like a sword at Ni Kun's brow.
Just as his slender white fingers were about to touch Ni Kun's eyebrows.
Suddenly, a golden light burst out from between Ni Kun's eyebrows and hit Xu Fu's fingertips.
"What?"
Xu Fu was shocked, because the golden light against his fingertips was actually two fingers flashing golden light and pointing like swords!
"The soul leaves the body? What a coincidence! I can do that too!"
A faint voice came from Ni Kun's body.
Afterwards, the invisible force field spread out, and everything within a ten-foot radius solidified.
Kryptonian Life Skill, Sword Twenty-Three!
As the invisible force field expanded, even Xu Fu's soul seemed to be bound by some invisible force. When he moved, his speed was so fast that it made Ni Kunlei's sword speed as slow as a snail. Xu Fu's soul also slowed down rapidly.
Although it has not yet fallen to the point of being completely solidified and unable to move.
But now, the one moving as slowly as a snail is Xu Fu's soul!
"Xu Fu, your move of killing the gods is really good, but it seems to burn your essence, causing your body to decay and your life span to pass away?"
Ni Kun said with a smile, and pointed the sword with a blazing golden light at Xu Fu's forehead in front of his terrified eyes.
Xu Fu turned his head desperately, trying to avoid the sword.
But he was as slow as a snail now. Even if Ni Kun only pointed his sword at him at a normal speed, how could he have a chance to dodge?
puff!
Ni Kun pointed his sword at Xu Fu’s forehead.
Xu Fu's soul froze, and a golden crack appeared between his eyebrows.
The cracks expanded rapidly, and in a blink of an eye, spread all over his body, making him covered with golden cracks, as if he was a broken porcelain doll that was then pieced together with gold paint.
"In order to survive, I was forced to kneel before the master and serve him. In order to survive, I was driven by the master to come to this world to serve as the master's accomplice in destroying the world... In order to survive, I came to hunt down Ni Kun, but in the end... I ended up killing myself!"
His soul was about to disappear and his deadline was approaching. Xu Fu, who had been afraid of death for more than a thousand years, felt a flash of anger, hatred, unwillingness and despair in his heart, but then he calmed down.
He stared at Ni Kun in front of him, his lips slightly raised in a sarcastic smile.
When a man is about to die, are his words good?
No, I, Xu Fu, actually don’t want to die, but now I have to die. If I die, you won’t have an easy life either.
Even if I can't do anything to you, I will make you unable to sleep or eat well!
"Ni Kun, do you think that killing me will be the end?
"Whether I am Xu Fu or the Night King, we are just lackeys who are driven by others. My master is a powerful person that you cannot imagine, and he will eventually destroy this world.
"Ni Kun, although you are strong, you are still not much stronger than me. And my master can defeat me with just one finger! How many fingers of my master can you block?
"Ni Kun, the end of the world is coming. When the end of the world comes, not only all living things, but even the world itself will be reduced to dust.
“And this day will not be too far away.”
Xu Fu sneered and said calmly:
"Ni Kun, I will watch carefully from underground... your ugly appearance of struggling in vain and despair when the apocalypse comes..."
"No, you can't see it." Ni Kun smiled leisurely:
"You don't even have your soul anymore. You don't even have the chance to fall into the eighteenth level of hell. What... are you going to use to see?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ni Kun flicked his fingertips lightly, and Xu Fu's soul shattered and turned into ashes.
