Chapter 12
Liang Shixian was dumbfounded as he looked at Ji Ruo waving his sword. Zhang Quan and Liu Neng had already run far away.
Liang Shixian had heard of sword techniques that could block hidden weapons or other flying tools.
However, even the lowest level of cultivation for those sword techniques had to be in the pulsing realm.
No martial apprentice could cultivate such a sword technique.
This was because all of those sword techniques required the assistance of strong eyesight.
To put it nicely, the martial apprentice realm was the reserve for martial artists. In fact, in this world where everyone valued martial arts, even an ordinary person who was physically unsuitable for practicing martial arts could have the strength of a martial apprentice realm after long-term training.
Therefore, in theory, the martial apprentice realm was still the level of ordinary people.
A martialist in the pulsing realm could open up meridians, allowing themselves to truly possess vitality.
The so-called vitality was energy and spirit. It was very direct.
Vitality was the foundation of a martial artist’s transcendence. Only by truly possessing the power of vitality could one further unearth the treasures of the human body and open up the path of evolution known as the martial arts.
At that time, all aspects of the human body would improve at a terrifying speed. Defense, strength, speed, reaction, dynamic vision, and so on would all be greatly improved.
To practice a sword technique that could block arrows or other flying tools, one must have a strong dynamic vision. After all, you couldn’t even see the flying arrows, so how could you block them?
However, the sword technique that Ji Ruo was using was different. It gave Liang Shixian a feeling that it was completely different from the sword techniques that he knew could block flying items.
Those sword techniques were extremely fast, but Ji Ruo’s sword technique was not fast. In fact, it was a little slow.
Of course, this was only relative. In fact, Ji Ruo’s sword moves were not that slow.
Moreover, compared to the other sword techniques that were used to defend, Ji Ruo’s sword technique did not have sword energy and was not fast, but it seemed to be more exquisite.
He would always swing his sword to a certain position before the poisonous stingers hit him.
It felt like the stinger demon bees were throwing their stingers at Ji Ruo’s sword.
It was absurd.
Clang!
After the last stinger was cut down, the first round of 16 stingers was all cut down by Ji Ruo.
“Ji-”
Just as Liang Shixian was about to say something, he saw that the second wave of poisonous stingers had already been filled and was shooting toward him.
“We’ll talk later. Let’s go!”
Ji Ruo bent down and picked up seven or eight poisonous stingers. He put them into his pocket and used the arrow-breaking move again.
A stinger demon bee could store six to nine stingers in its sting container. Ji Ruo could rely on the beginner level of the Solitude Nine Swords – Broken Arrow style to block the stingers. Once the other stinger demon bees realized that the corpses wouldn’t move and decided to kill them first, they would be in danger.
After all, the Broken Arrow move didn’t rely on its powerful dynamic vision to block flying props, but on prediction.
By listening to the wind to determine the position and order of the flying prop, he could calculate and predict the order of attack, and then resolve it with exquisite sword moves.
Ji Ruo could barely deal with a dozen stinger demon bees, but if hundreds of them came at him at the same time, he wouldn’t even be able to hear them clearly. Naturally, he couldn’t calculate and predict the order.
If the stinger demon bees realized that they had to kill those who knew how to run, Ji Ruo and the others would still die here.
Liang Shixian also realized this. He was not a pretentious person, so he did not say anything about covering for him. He only said, “Be careful.”
He then turned around and ran away.
Liang Shixian seemed to be prepared to die, but he was still a young man. He was still afraid to face death.
Moreover, Ji Ruo’s swordsmanship also showed who was more suitable to cover them in this situation, so Liang Shixian ran away.
Seeing Liang Shixian leave, Ji Ruo quickly retreated while blocking the poisonous stingers with the Broken Arrow.
They fought while they ran.
The second wave, the third wave, the fourth wave…
The stinger demon bees would pause for a moment when they fired their stingers.
Moreover, with each shot, they would become weaker and their flying speed would slow down.
Normally, with fewer stingers, their weight would be reduced, and their flying speed should be faster.
But in fact, these devils were not machines. The biological limitations made them lose weight and consume a lot of physical strength, so their flying speed also decreased.
Ji Ruo and the others ran further away.
In the process, Ji Ruo even grabbed the poisonous thorn with his free hand and put it into his pocket. The crickets were poisonous and could be used to make special arrows, which could be sold for money.
As long as the poison on the tail didn’t come into contact with the wound, it would be fine.
The 16 stinger demon bees flew slower and slower, and Ji Ruo and the others ran further and further away.
At this moment, the stinger demon bees finally realized which side they should kill first. Other than the bees that were transporting the food, a large number of them flew toward the direction where Ji Ruo and the others had left.
The buzzing noises sounded again, but when they caught up with the 16 stinger bees, Ji Ruo and the others were gone.
Because they had to face the martial arts examination, in addition to some fighting techniques, the martial arts teaching in high school also focused on the cultivation of escaping ability.
Martial artists had to press forward with indomitable will, but their lives were equally important. After all, only by surviving could they talk about other things.
…
At the peak of Myriad Beast Mountain was the center of the entire secret realm, and it was also a place that humans had never explored.
There were very powerful demonic beasts and demons here. They occupied the land and ruled the mountains. There were conflicts between them from time to time, and the neighbors were not harmonious.
But today, a group of great demons had gathered together, which was a rare sight. They were discussing something with another group of powerful demons who also lived on the mountaintop.
Every single one of them was the size of a mountain, and they exuded terrifying energy fluctuations.
“You still haven’t found that d*mn cat?”
A huge toad asked in a deep voice. There was a bright moon on its back, and as time passed, the moon’s shape was slowly changing.
“No, I didn’t.”
A similarly huge one-eyed giant shook its head slightly. Its huge eye, which took up two-thirds of its face, seemed to contain a blazing sun.
Damn cat! It killed the slumbering worm and stole its ability. It has been modifying the terrain of Myriad Beast Mountain, so it’s very difficult for us to find it. ”
“It’s alright. It’s already seriously injured. It’s also constantly using its stolen ability to modify the terrain because it’s afraid of being caught by us. It can’t hold on for long! We can wait until it’s exhausted before we look for it. ”
Hearing this, the giant toad with the moon on its back snorted, “It’s easier said than done! It didn’t steal your treasure, so of course, you’re not in a hurry! My moon essence mirror has already been stolen by it. What if it leaves Myriad Beast Mountain through the moon essence mirror?”
The one-eyed giant pondered for a moment and said, “It probably doesn’t have the extra power to open the moon Mirror. It’s trying to change the entire terrain of Myriad Beast Mountain except for the peak. It also has to hide its aura. Plus, it’s heavily injured…”
“Hmph, I hope so!”
