Volume 4: The Winds and Clouds of the Western Blue Sky Chapter 19: That Knife, Like a Dragon
From the beginning of the battle to now, although the two sides have fought countless times, it has entered a white-hot stage.
But in fact, the actual fighting time was only more than a minute.
Both sides have advantages and disadvantages, but Qi Ji's disadvantage is obviously greater.
Charlie's advantage is that after reaching the fourth level, the armor formed by magic power not only provides him with considerable defense, but more importantly, it strengthens his body functions in a new way and path. In addition to his own seven to eight tons of strength, which has reached the human body's limit even after being strengthened by magic power, his strength and speed have been greatly enhanced again by nearly doubling after wearing the magic armor.
His disadvantage was not very obvious. Although he was careless at the beginning and was slashed by Qi Ji and suffered a huge wound on his waist, he was not seriously injured in the short term due to the fixation and protection of the magic armor.
On the contrary, it was Qi Ji. His strength was originally inferior to that of his opponent. The reason why he could hold on until now was all thanks to the combined effect of the Ashina-ryu swordsmanship's superb method of dissipating force and parrying, as well as his own wolf swordsmanship's "Unyielding" item that reduced the damage he suffered.
However, he is now facing a desperate situation, that is, he is running out of time to subdue the demon.
After being promoted to the extraordinary level, his spirit also grew significantly. The activation time, which originally lasted about forty to fifty seconds, increased to nearly two minutes.
Although it is a significant increase compared to the past, it is no longer enough now.
In a few dozen seconds, he would faint because of the exhaustion from subduing demons, and then become a poor creature to be slaughtered by his opponent.
He had to figure out a way.
Different from the normal state of silence.
Qi Ji, in the demon-subduing state, is absolutely calm, absolutely rational, and absolutely decisive.
Since we are facing such a desperate situation, it is naturally acceptable to use the desperate skills that we have hidden away.
Eliminating uncertainty, there is only one option left.
Qi Ji took a deep breath with an unprecedented intensity, and the violent inhalation even caused obvious air flow fluctuations.
His body suddenly burst into a terrifying high temperature that a human should not have.
The heart's beat rate instantly exceeded three hundred times per minute, and the blood circulated at high speed in the body.
A black line shaped like a vertical eye appeared on his forehead.
On the invisible part of the chest, a pattern shaped like the sun appeared.
An incomparable sense of power filled his whole body.
Demon Slayer·Breathing of the Sun·Zebra Mode!
Burst out with all your strength!
The next moment, in Charlie's shocked eyes, the single knife in Qi Ji's hand disappeared, and then turned into a long curved blade with two edges.
Qi Ji swung his sword violently, and a flame vision as violent as a real one entangled the Immortal Slash, as if he had chopped out a blaze of fire.
Charlie had already been alerted by the many strange phenomena that suddenly erupted from Qi Ji, and at this moment he attacked with all his strength without reservation.
The swords collided with tremendous force.
Charlie felt the heavy blow from Qi Ji and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It looked like a big move, but it wasn't as bad as he had worried about, where he would be crushed.
His strength has indeed increased significantly, but he is still not as strong as me.
This is probably the limit of this kid.
At the moment when Charlie inevitably breathed a sigh of relief, the most dazzling light ever burst out from Qi Ji's dazed eyes!
That’s right, he concealed his weakness in the first blow after the outburst just now.
The desired effect is to make this priest relax his vigilance even a little bit.
And now, the time is ripe!
A large amount of black and purple flames suddenly erupted from the Undying Slash. This was the potential power in this weapon that could cut off all immortality that was discovered after learning the Heartless Flow.
At the same time, the flame vision of the Sun's Breathing also ignited on the Undead Slash.
The orange-red flames like the sun, intertwined with the real black and purple flames of the Undying Slash itself, forming an extremely gorgeous two-color fire.
Not only that, in Charlie's already shocked eyes.
Qi Ji's face seemed to become blurry, and countless illusory figures seemed to appear behind him.
No form!
No, strictly speaking, it should be——
Formless·Breathing of the Sun·Pattern Mode·Transparent World·Immortal Slash!
Then, in this state, use the special move that best matches the Breathing of the Sun.
Breathing of the Sun: Thirteenth Form!
The Undead Slash, which was surrounded by massive orange and black-purple flames, was swung by Qi Ji at an unparalleled speed.
He spun around and sprinted, appearing in front of Charlie, then swung his sword in a smooth motion!
The first move, round dance!
The moment Charlie took the knife, he fell into great fear.
This knife is more powerful than his and faster than his!
However, it was too late for him to regret, and all he was left with was despair.
Because there are eleven more powerful moves coming up!
The blue sky! The red mirror of the blazing sun! The rainbow of the mirage sun! The train...
At just the fifth strike, Charlie made a mistake due to Qi Ji's illusionary rainbow body movement, and was instantly cut in the back by the fifth move "Train".
Burning bone flaming sun! Yang Hua Tu! Flying wheel flaming sun! The setting sun turns around!
High-speed slashing, swift thrusting, the blade is like a phantom, and the body is like a ghost.
Qi Ji's figure was like a flying rainbow, flashing at high speed around Charlie's body. At the same time, the Immortal Slash in his hand carried a large amount of flames and left hideous wounds on Charlie's body with different moves.
In the formless state, it seemed as if countless phantoms were following closely behind Qi Ji, performing the same movements as he did.
Charlie had already fallen into frenzy due to Qi Ji's terrifying combo. His blocking was always one step slower than Qi Ji, and his attacks could not even touch Qi Ji's clothes.
Finally, Qi Ji jumped upside down to Charlie's side and injured him with the slanting sun turn.
Then, he jumped high again after landing, and in an instant he kicked the giant tree beside him and rushed towards Charlie from the air. His body was spinning at a high speed like a tornado, and the Undead Sword in his hand also rotated with a large amount of flames.
Breathing of the Sun·Pick Up Type·Brilliant Grace!
The next moment, this high-speed rotating flame slashed down suddenly, and with one stroke, it completely cut off Charlie's cross sword, which had already been overwhelmed and had many gaps!
The sword is broken, but the man is not dead!
At the critical moment, Charlie dropped his sword and stepped back, avoiding the fate of having his sword broken and himself killed.
However, his expression became more desperate.
This despair even made him turn around quickly and run away immediately!
But it was too late.
Qi Ji held the Immortal Slash in both hands and raised it behind his back. A terrifying flame like a rocket launcher erupted from the blade, and this flame instantly transformed into an illusory flaming dragon head.
Breathing of the Sun·Type 11·Corona Dragon!
Qi Ji stomped on the ground suddenly, and the soft ground exploded with a huge handful of soil, and a huge hole appeared under his step.
The next moment, raging flames spread wildly, and Qi Ji's figure suddenly passed by Charlie who turned around and ran away.
It's like a fire dragon swimming.
Qi Ji's sword is the dragon's head, and the long flaming sword light is the dragon's body.
Charlie's head flew high, with that incredible look of despair still on his face.
He could never have expected that he, who had just been promoted to the fourth level and was planning to practice and show off his martial arts to improve his merits, would be beheaded by a small knight whose aura was clearly that of a first-level knight on his first attack.
[Kill the Extraordinary (Level 4), gain Transcendence 500]
The transcendence panel gave a timely prompt, and Qi Ji immediately removed all statuses after confirming the enemy's death.
The next second, an unprecedented feeling of weakness rose up wildly.
Qi Ji's whole body went limp and he fell straight to the ground.
Despite the severe pain between his eyebrows and his extreme weakness all over his body, a wild smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
I, by myself, killed a fourth-level being!
He recalled the previous martial arts competition in Donghua Continent, where he was attacked by several fourth-level masters sent by the terrorist organization "Mirage".
At that time, he huddled together with a group of young geniuses who had not yet reached extraordinary levels, fearing that they would be slapped to death like a mosquito by the aftermath of a battle with the fourth-level masters.
And now, he finally has the ability to save his life against the truly high-end combat forces in the Outer Realm!
He even killed a genuine fourth-level one!
The thoughts are clear!
At this moment, he finally resolved the fear of the super-powerful fourth-level extraordinary person that was buried deep in his heart, and even his spirit seemed to have grown greatly at this moment.
Just like that, Qi Ji lay motionless on the ground, silently regulating his breathing using the Yangmai Method.
Fortunately, the beasts in this area had long been frightened away by the battle between the two terrifying masters. At this moment, within a radius of one kilometer, there was no other creature that could move except Qi Ji and some small unintelligent creatures.
A few minutes later, he regained basic mobility and slowly climbed up. He simply tidied his appearance, determined the direction, and slowly walked into the depths of the dense forest.
About an hour later, the team of church knights who had parted ways with Charlie before, led by the knight captain, arrived at the battlefield where Qi Ji and Charlie were fighting.
After seeing the surrounding terrain that had been destroyed beyond the shape of a forest, as well as Charlie's head and corpse on the ground, the captain of the knights' face became extremely terrified. He immediately arranged for his subordinates to take away Charlie's remains, and the entire team of knights fled towards the outside of the Witch's Forest at a rapid speed.
Even a fourth-level super master had his head and body separated, so letting their team of knights, who were at most third-level, to explore further would be tantamount to sending them to their deaths.
On the other side, Melina, who had been riding her horse forward to escape, couldn't help but look sad when she heard the fighting sounds behind her stopped.
Mr. Qi Ji, even though the Eye of Destiny told me that you are the legendary "Invincible Man".
But, I'm really sorry, I can't imagine how you can save your life in front of a fourth-level master...
…
No matter how the parties reacted, Qi Ji had no time to care .
He just left the scene as soon as he recovered some of his mobility to avoid being killed by other enemies.
Then, he found a cave in the forest that had no strange smell, no signs of being occupied by wild animals , and looked relatively safe.
It was beginning to get dark.
He planned to stay here for one night and make plans after he recovered.
