Chapter 42: Giant
"The rain of pear blossom needles?"
Before the boss on the opposite side could react, Shen Yu had already pressed the switch. The Torrential Pear Blossom Needle was known as the king of hidden weapons. Although there was an element of exaggeration in it, the twenty-seven silver nails were so powerful that every time they were shot out, blood would be drawn, which was really hard to defend against.
Besides, Shen Yu himself was not idle either. As soon as the silver nail appeared, he drew his sword and the sword force that had been accumulated for a long time suddenly burst out with the brightest light.
The lightness of the Wind God Leg, combined with the Nine Yin Manual's Spiral Nine Shadows and Aerial Movement, is ever-changing and unstoppable. Combined with the sword technique of Heavenly Fairy, the power it unleashes is beyond imagination. It's like the most dazzling fireworks lit up in the air, bringing the threat of death.
"Puff!" The silver nail penetrated into the body. Even though the boss tried very hard to dodge, he still couldn't avoid the silver nail of the rain of pear blossom needles. The title of the king of hidden weapons is not a false reputation, it is earned through killing.
Blood dripped from the corner of his mouth. He was seriously injured before the fight even started. Waves of pain came from all parts of his body, making him unbearable for a moment. But before he could react, another swift sword light came towards him.
Just when he was trying to resist desperately to get a chance to catch his breath, the figure on the other side suddenly split into several figures, making it difficult for him to distinguish them. What kind of martial arts is this? This is too bullying.
At this moment, a sword suddenly appeared, as if it had traveled through time and space. He had no way to avoid it. The sword blade passed by, blood was spilled, and a few blood-colored plum blossoms bloomed on the spot.
What a fast sword! The pain from his neck made him clearly feel the loss of life. It was a gap that could not be blocked no matter what. Vitality, consciousness, and strength were all dissipating rapidly.
The most frustrating thing for him was that he was knocked down before he could even use his newly increased strength. His ambitions and foresight were all in vain. This frustrating battle also ruined his future.
At this moment, the only thing left in the boss' heart was cursing Xu Mufeng. Cooperating with Xu Mufeng was the most wrong decision he had ever made in his life. He actually provoked such a powerful enemy. It was such a pitfall!
"Dead, finally dead!" Shen Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the boss who had no life left. The boss had just absorbed the power from the blood vine, and his own strength had increased dramatically, and the threat he brought to him had also doubled.
If I hadn't signed in before and obtained the Torrential Pear Blossom Needle, I would have had to pay a heavy price to defeat the opponent, and I might even have been unable to defeat him.
Fortunately, everything went perfectly and this great enemy was finally defeated.
"System, sign in!"
"Sign in successfully, obtain the first eight levels of the Golden Bell Cover!"
As the system prompt sounded, it seemed as if a ray of light poured into Shen Yu's body, and he seemed to be immersed in the ocean of martial arts, practicing this martial art day after day and year after year.
The world has changed dramatically, and it seemed like decades had passed in the blink of an eye. After continuous hard training, the Golden Bell Cover finally reached the eighth level, and Shen Yu also opened his eyes, and his aura suddenly increased.
At this moment, he has completely mastered the first eight levels of the Golden Bell. The Golden Bell he obtained was not a common practice, but a top-level practice that cultivates both the inner and outer aspects. The first few levels were mainly for external practice and were not very powerful, so they seemed a bit common.
By the sixth level, except for the weak spot, ordinary iron weapons are invulnerable to damage. By the eighth level, there is only a three-inch weak spot on the body, and no matter how strong the opponent's attack is, it can be rebounded by the same fierce force. It can be said that it is already very powerful.
The further you advance, the stronger the power of the Golden Bell Cover will be. When you reach the twelfth level, the cover will completely disappear, and you will be truly indestructible. Not afraid of poison, and hard to be hurt by fists, feet, swords, or knives.
However, Shen Yu only got the first eight levels at this moment, which has benefited him a lot. As long as he protects his weak points and avoids encountering magical weapons like the Yuanhong Sword, generally no one can hurt him, and his self-protection ability has been greatly improved.
Sure enough, the more evil these people did, the greater the rewards he would get. This time, he took a risk and made a lot of money!
Having solved the biggest threat, Shen Yu was relieved and began to think about how to deal with the harmful blood vine. The sword light poured out, cutting off large pieces of these vine roots. I don't believe it, can it still survive if the roots are cut off?
"What are these?" When Shen Yu cut off the layers of vine roots, he suddenly found that there seemed to be a large iron box hidden in the layers of blood vines. After the blood vines outside were cut off, it appeared in front of him.
With one sword, Shen Yu cut off the iron lock. He stood a little further away and then used his sword energy to sweep the box open. He was afraid that some hidden weapon or poison would suddenly come out of the box. In the underworld, stability is the most important thing.
It turned out that he was overthinking, there was no threat inside. After waiting for a long time and seeing nothing unusual, Shen Yu came forward.
In the big box, the most conspicuous thing was a blood-colored token, a set of blood-colored brocade clothes, and a blood-colored cloak. This was a complete set of clothes, and it looked like it was hidden here with great care.
"Deacon of the Thousand Blood Sect!" This title startled Shen Yu. Shen Yu had heard of the name of the Thousand Blood Sect before. It was a behemoth that had swept across several states for thirty years.
Thirty years ago, there was a severe drought that affected several states, and many places even had no harvest. At this time, many merchants took advantage of this to hoard goods, and the people starved to death everywhere, exchanging their children for food. The streets were full of people starving to death.
Shen Yu had never seen the words recorded in these books with his own eyes, but he could imagine the tragic situation at that time.
Just when the people were in despair, the Thousand Blood Cult took advantage of the situation and rose up. The Thousand Blood Cult's teachings emphasized saving yourself before saving others, and killing people to protect yourself!
That is to say, if you want to save others, you must save yourself first. The best way is to protect yourself by killing. Only by protecting yourself first can you have a future. Kill for survival, kill to spy on yourself, kill to threaten yourself, as long as it is beneficial to yourself, you must kill!
Those who join the sect need to swear an oath with blood. After the fusion of thousands of bloods, everyone becomes a brother connected by blood. At first, it quickly attracted many people to join. And according to rumors, the Thousand Blood Sect seems to have a quick-learning method that can strengthen oneself through continuous killing.
Especially in such a chaotic and catastrophic year, countless people died of starvation, fighting and looting were numerous, and countless people were killed and injured every day. The Thousand Blood Sect was like a fish in water, and its strength increased dramatically, to the point that it became unscrupulous and began to use the hungry people to attack cities and plunder land.
According to records in books, at its peak, the Thousand Blood Sect's military strength suddenly increased to hundreds of thousands, with countless masters among them, and they even defeated the imperial court's rebellion army several times.
In the end, it was rumored that he was too arrogant and dared to kill the children of the top sects and families, which angered countless sects and families. Therefore, under the joint suppression of the court and the martial arts world, he was finally completely destroyed.
Now it seems that the leader of this Zhangnan bandit should be a deacon of the Thousand Blood Sect, and he can mobilize tens of thousands of people under his command. Thinking in this way, although the Thousand Blood Sect has disappeared, it is not completely dead, and it may still revive!
The rest of the box contained some correspondence, and Shen Yu also took a look. How should I put it? There were not only letters from Xu Mufeng, the prefect, but also from many other high-ranking officials, and even generals. The officials and bandits colluded to make money together, but they didn't know that they also left a handle for others.
It can be seen from this that the big boss has a big plan. With these, it is equivalent to grasping the handle and key points of these people. If the big boss raises his arm in the future, what will these people do? It seems that they have no choice.
It is unknown how many people like Zhang Nan, the leader of the giant bandits, the Thousand Blood Sect has buried in various places. Hiss, it seems that I have dug up an unexpected , which is really painful.
