Chapter 885 Veteran (3)
At the entrance of Zhou Family Ancestral Hall, Lu Yi sat cross-legged steadily on a large rock, smiling as he watched Zhou Changgong standing on top of an arrow tower and slowly pulling the longbow specially made for him.
Lu Yi's skill in refining equipment was limited, and his aesthetic taste was very ordinary, so the appearance of this longbow was also very ordinary.
At first glance, it looks like a half-moon-shaped steel bar with a shiny animal tendon tied on it. Judging from the appearance alone, it looks a bit crudely made.
But the power of this bow is truly terrifying.
After obtaining Lu Yi's 'Spirit Enlightenment' and changing his cultivation method, Zhou Changgong's cultivation level, physical strength, and overall strength soared greatly. He had to grit his teeth slightly every time to pull the longbow to 70%.
Every time the longbow was pulled, a cold white light flashed on the bow arm. This was the sharp edge condensed by the Xinjin Qi, which naturally attached to the shoulder and could increase the penetration of the armor-piercing arrow by dozens of times. On the bowstring, there were wisps of green breeze flowing. The breeze wrapped around the arrow shaft and stroked the arrow feathers, which could increase the arrow's flight speed tenfold out of thin air, making the flight trajectory more stable and straight, and the range also skyrocketed tenfold.
This is fatal.
Zhou Changgong was originally one of the best archers in Luoyi. In the past, few people could catch his arrows .
Now, the combined power of the arrows he shot with this powerful bow has increased by more than a hundred times compared to before... In the entire Luoyi, there is no one who can take his arrows head-on!
In the darkness, the sound of arrows breaking through the air continued to be heard.
Sharp cold rays tore through the air and fiercely pierced into the ranks of enemies rushing into the Big Sword Shop. The powerful arrows brutally and unreasonably pierced through shields, armor, and the bodies of the unlucky people who rushed into the Big Sword Shop.
The arrows were so powerful that even if Zhou Changgong only used ordinary armor-piercing arrows, he could still pierce through the bodies of more than a dozen enemies at a time... He didn't even need to use the spiritual gold armor-piercing arrows specially made by Lu Yi, the power was already inhumane.
In the dark night, strange sounds of metal piercing and flesh exploding were heard from the three broken places in the city wall. The unlucky ones who were pierced in the chest had their bodies exploded and died instantly. There were some lucky ones whose arrows pierced through several or even dozens of their companions in front of them before they just grazed their bodies.
Arms were broken, arrows exploded, or the chest and ribs were scratched with deep wounds as thick as arms... These 'lucky ones' rolled on the ground in pain, constantly making shrill roars, which frightened the large group of cavalry who rushed into the city and turned pale.
Outside the city, Luo Bo and others looked increasingly ugly.
They listened to the sound of Zhou Chang's bow and arrow, and their hearts sank deeply even though they had been calm and composed.
Hearing the sharp and rapid sound of the arrow breaking through the air, they knew that Zhou Changgong was standing very far away and shooting the arrow. The time it took for the arrow to break through the air was extremely short, which showed that the speed of the arrow was extremely fast - the speed of this arrow was at least ten times faster than that shot by the most skilled archer in their tribe!
This is absolutely unscrupulous.
That makes no sense.
Although Zhou Changgong is one of the best archers in Luoyi, the Luo family also has people who have practiced Taoism and are proficient in using bows and arrows. Moreover, the bows they use are all obtained by the Luo family through their own channels. They are the top-level heavenly soldiers in Luoyi.
The bow in Zhou Changgong's hand should not be stronger than the bow in the hands of their Luo family archers!
But here are the facts.
Listening to the sound of the arrows, listening to the bodies of those shot by the arrows exploding, or the screams of those rolling on the ground, everyone, as long as they were not stupid, knew that Zhou Changgong had obtained an absurdly powerful longbow from somewhere!
There was a loud noise.
Several private soldiers from other wealthy families , sweating profusely and with crooked armor on their bodies, staggered over with pale faces, dragging a wounded man and a broken body.
The injured man was the patriarch of the Li family in the old city, and a cultivator of Taoism with quite strong cultivation base.
He was good at using a long-handled golden hammer, the head of which was as thick as an ordinary person's waist... But now, his unusually heavy golden hammer was only left with a long pole, the head of which was slightly red and emitted an overwhelming heat.
The entire left shoulder of the Li family patriarch was missing.
Blood spurted out of the bloody wound. The head of the Li family stared at Luo Bo with wide eyes and trembling all over, muttering over and over again: "My hammer was exploded by an arrow, just one arrow... My hammer, just one arrow, it exploded completely... Fortunately, I have my hammer, otherwise, I would be finished!"
The faces of Luo Bo and others became more and more distorted.
The hammer of the Li family patriarch is a solid metal lump as thick as a human waist. It is also a weapon of the heavenly soldiers. It is made of the best spiritual gold material that can be found in Luoyi... Although the refining method may be a bit crude, its size and the solidity of the material itself are there.
The defensive power of this golden hammer is at least equivalent to dozens of ordinary heavy metal shields stacked together.
After all, it is a genuine heavenly soldier, much stronger than the ordinary spiritual gold shield. Moreover, the thickness of such a large metal lump can be seen at a glance.
Such a strong defense was destroyed by just one arrow?
The armor on the head of the Li family is definitely that of a heavenly soldier... As the head of a family, and the Li family is also an old and powerful family that has been in the old city for many years, the family background is still extremely rich.
Look at his shoulder. The entire shoulder is gone, and the armor nearby is torn and twisted beyond recognition.
The power of this arrow...
Luo Bo felt his scalp tingling.
As for the half body that had completely disappeared from the pelvis and was dragged here by the private soldiers...those two extremely thick thighs seemed a little familiar. They were more than twice as thick as those of a normal person, but they were two or three inches shorter.
In the whole Luoyi, the only one with such two legs is the head of the Sun family in the old city.
The head of the Sun family was extremely strong and good at boxing. His natural physical characteristics made him not good at long-distance raids or short-distance evasions. Therefore, he customized a set of extremely heavy armor that was several times more powerful than the armor of ordinary heavenly soldiers. His best fighting method was to stand still and exchange heavy punches with the enemy one-on-one, taking three or five blows from the enemy , and then blasting the enemy's head with one punch.
His two boxing gloves were extremely sturdy and heavy.
But now, only half of his body was left, and his entire upper body had disappeared into the darkness.
"One arrow, just one arrow... our master even raised his fists to block his chest, but just one arrow... his upper body was gone." A soldier from the Sun family was trembling, his face was pale and he kept muttering. His face was distorted, his eyes were flashing with fanaticism, with fear and terror, but also a hint of excitement?
Luo Bo and others became more and more solemn.
In the darkness of the night, the sharp and rapid sounds of arrows breaking through the air continued to be heard, as well as the sounds of armor and shields shattering, flesh exploding, and the screams of the dying, which made people feel more and more uneasy.
"How could this happen?" A steward of the Luo family who was proficient in the art of archery waved his hand fiercely: "This fellow has already shot 79 arrows in a row... How can he still have the strength?"
A skilled archer can tell which expert shot the arrow by the sound of the arrow breaking through the air.
The continuous sounds of arrows just now were clearly caused by Zhou Changgong.
However... the true practitioners of the heavenly soldier class have limited strength. If they can shoot thirty arrows continuously with such a strong bow, they are considered masters... Forty arrows are amazing... And if they can shoot fifty arrows in a row, with each arrow maintaining such lethality, they are simply inhuman!
As for Zhou Changgong, although his archery skills were considered to be a master in Luoyi, his cultivation and strength were not outstanding compared to other true practitioners. When he shot with all his strength, he could only shoot about 40 arrows.
And now, seventy-nine arrows were fired in a row, and each arrow killed or seriously injured no less than three unlucky guys!
This is totally unreasonable and beyond imagination!
"Even if the 'Power of Heaven' is replenished with Emperor Money, his physical strength...how can he withstand it?" Several stewards of the Luo family looked at each other, their heads full of confusion, and they had no idea what was going on.
Zhou Changgong was getting into a better and better state.
The mana in the body, the so-called 'power of heaven and man', surged. Every time a strand of it was consumed, spiritual energy from the outside world would quickly flow into the body, immediately replenishing the consumed mana to its peak.
Every time the arms draw the bow, a huge amount of energy and blood is consumed.
Similarly, every time after drawing the bow, a current of heat would flow into the whole body, instantly replenishing all the consumed physical strength.
He shot arrows one after another without any consumption. On the contrary, under the stimulation of the "Indestructible Diamond Sutra", the more mana he consumed, the faster his cultivation progressed; the more physical strength he lost, the stronger his arms naturally grew.
Plus an extremely powerful bow.
There are still so many high-quality arrows that can be consumed at will...
This kind of joy that radiated freely was simply ten times more enjoyable than the first time he secretly took his third brother to a brothel!
Zhou Changgong's face flushed with excitement and his head was hot.
His five senses and six perceptions have become much sharper than before. He can easily hear the slightest footsteps and the friction of armor from several miles away. The advanced skill of listening to the wind to determine the position has now become the simplest instinct. With the slightest sound, he can immediately judge how many people are there, what formation they are in, whether they have shields in their hands, and whether the armor on their bodies is heavy armor or leather armor.
Following instinct, he aimed his arrow at the right direction and fired.
Then came the sounds of armor and shields shattering, flesh exploding, and shrill howls that sounded like nature.
All around, a group of Zhou family men stared at Zhou Changgong with fiery eyes, and almost clapped, stamped their feet, and cheered loudly!
Such a sharp archer, is he a human? Not a human!
