Ba Fenghan turned around like a whirlwind, straightened his shoulders, and Zhang Deng immediately gave birth to a strong momentum that could not be overcome by one man and ten thousand troops, controlling the enemy cavalry remotely.
It turned into a dozen horsemen galloping towards him, all reining in their horses.
Although the Tiele people are good at killing enemies on horseback, no one dares to fight him on horseback when a master of Ba Fenghan's level is ready.
Ba Fenghan immediately became more powerful and stepped forward with a deep shout.
The visitors were from Qingyi Tiele named Qu Ao, and included his three disciples Chang Shumou, Hua Lingzi and Geng Ge Huer.
Ba Fenghan's move to block the road was completely unexpected.
The fact that Ba Fenghan was able to escape from the unavoidable situation just now had a serious impact on Qu Ao's confidence, so he had to find a place to meditate before he dared to go to Fu Qian's appointment.
And Ba Fenghan actually intercepted alone at this time. Everyone was surprised by his confidence and strength, which was inexplicable and unpredictable.
Only in terms of momentum, Ba Fenghan was able to take the lead and take the initiative.
The war horses reared up one after another a hundred steps away from Ba Fenghan, and their screams resounded throughout the long street.
Qu Ao wanted to look around to search for the traces of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling in case they were hiding aside for a flanking attack, but he felt that he couldn't take his attention away from the approaching enemies. He was afraid that this might cause him to be distracted.
Causes of failure.
No matter how reluctant he was to admit it, Ba Fenghan had indeed become an opponent worthy of him.
Qu Aofei dismounted and shouted in a deep voice: Lead the horse! Guard the formation for me!
Chang Shumou in the back said in confusion: Master, why should we pay attention to him? Just wait for us to take care of him!
At this time, Ba Fenghan came to the fifty paces and his momentum increased unabated. His burning eyes were fixed on Qu Ao.
Qu Ao secretly sighed in his heart that although Chang Shumou could become one of the first-class masters through his true biography, he was still not as good as Ba Fenghan. Talented young masters such as Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong could not understand the subtleties.
If Qu Ao avoids fighting, it will leave a lingering psychological shadow, which will be detrimental to the upcoming duel with Fu Qian. The most powerful thing is that the other party's powerful and domineering power will only block the road alone, which will create an inseparable feeling in his heart.
A faded impression. The next time we met him, he was psychologically a loser.
What is more worrying is that under the influence of Qi, even if I retreat and go to Chang Shumou, etc., I may not be able to stop him; when that happens, I will be passively restrained if we fight again.
There is also a deeper concern that if he retreats without fighting, he will appear to be very courageous and graceless. It is clear that he would only dare to attack him when he has the advantage on the Tianjin Bridge just now. After repeated considerations,
Qu Ao knew full well that he had been forced into a desperate situation by Ba Fenghan and had no choice but to fight.
He is a master-level figure who has never been encountered in any situation. He shouted: "No need to say more, I will kill this guy first."
After saying this, he put aside all distracting thoughts and concentrated his mind, striding towards the enemy.
Chang Shumou and others exchanged glances, and they could see the helplessness in each other's hearts.
Ba Fenghan is indeed a terrifying figure who can make his opponents fear him.
※※※
The two masters stood still at the same time when they were twenty steps apart.
Ba Fenghan's face became extremely cold and he looked up to the sky with a smile and said: Qu Ao, you call yourself Tie Le's martial arts master in vain, but you can only deal with us when you are outnumbered by others. Aren't you afraid of making the world laugh at your actions like this?
Qu Ao's face was as cold as ice and he smiled and said: That day I was alone in chasing you three, but who was the leader and who was the widow?
This arrangement was only made to prevent you from running away as usual! If you are so indifferent, it is best not to come out to avoid embarrassment.
Ba Fenghan smiled and said: "It was just because you haven't figured out our strength yet. Is Ba someone wrong? As soon as the two of them came on stage, they were at each other's throats. In the stalemate, they both felt that the other side had no gaps, so they tried to attack each other verbally."
momentum and confidence.
Qu Ao said disdainfully: Why are you talking so much nonsense? You made up your mind to die and then asked me to fulfill your wish.
Ba Fenghan showed a confident smile and said lightly in a calm voice: Qu Ao, you are not qualified to be someone's real enemy. You can only be my stepping stone to challenge Bi Xuan!
These words were more powerful than any sharp sword. Not only Chang Shumou and others in the distance shouted and cursed Qu Ao, but they could not suppress the slight change in their expressions.
If Qu Ao had never been defeated by Bi Xuan, Qu Ao would have thought it was nonsense and would not have taken it to heart. I only regret that the fact was exactly the opposite, which immediately aroused Qu Ao's unforgettable shame and humiliation. His originally impeccable confidence was immediately destroyed.
A gap was opened.
Clang!
The Xuan-Zhan sword was unsheathed and drawn out. Ba Feng was so cold that his heart was distracted and all his thoughts were empty.
He could hear the faint noise coming from the Liu Pavilion at the rear left. Behind Qu Ao, he ignored the shouts and curses from Chang Shumou and others. It seemed as if there were only himself and the powerful enemy in front of him in the world.
After being transformed by He's Bi, the meridians' true energy surges and alternates at a speed many times faster than before, giving him infinite fighting power and confidence.
In Qu Ao's eyes, Ba Fenghan seemed to suddenly become powerful and tall, and he was shocked. He knew that the other party had this illusion because his momentum surged due to his loss of mind.
When masters are in a stalemate, their minds are locked together and their senses are also affected.
The sound of the sword being drawn vibrated in his eardrums like the sound of war drums.
Knowing that something was wrong, Qu Ao immediately gathered his mind and concentrated on the Nine Transformations, instantly reaching the peak state.
His lifelong cultivation process can be summarized in three words: seven, eight, and nine, which respectively represent his achievements in three stages.
Seven and eight refer to his two self-created innate miraculous powers called Seven Turns of Wild Waves and Eightfold Waves.
Generally, martial arts practitioners can be called masters if they can practice to the point where their luck and strength can be controlled by their hearts.
But if you want to surpass others, you must find changes in it to defeat the enemy.
The way to change lies in the cultivation of the acupuncture points in the body, which are the hubs of the meridians. The difficulty cannot be compared with ordinary Qi training. To be able to use the acupoints as the source of controlling the flow of true energy is the realm of a first-class master.
Qu Aonai, a genius in martial arts, successfully mastered seven acupoints at the age of twenty-three to create Seven Turns of Wild Waves. However, it would take ten years before he could train one more acupoint to create Seven Turns of Storm. You can imagine the hardships involved.
At the age of forty-one, all the acupoints all over the body can be controlled at will, and the name is called Ningzhen Nine Changes. Nine does not refer to the nine acupoints, but because nine is the extreme number of the acupoints, it means endless. Only at this point does martial arts become great.
Fight Bi Xuan’s heart.
Puff puff!
Ba Fenghan took three consecutive steps forward. Each step made a heavy and powerful sound, and the ground seemed to shake with it.
If this battle had taken place before he was defeated by Bi Xuan, then Qu Ao would have allowed the opponent to take the initiative to attack, taking advantage of the opponent's momentum and confidence to reach its peak, and then use a thunderous force to defeat the opponent in one fell swoop.
Suffering a blow that cannot be repaired gives rise to a sense of frustration and decadence that can never overcome one's own. At that time, it is as easy as picking up mustard to deal with the other party.
But this time is different from the past.
Qu Ao no longer had the courage and confidence to lift himself up from the ground and attack the young opponent who was more than ten steps away, swinging his sword diagonally, with the potential to sweep away an entire army.
He wanted to display the Ninth Transformation of Ningzhen to the fullest and then combine it with the flawless Thirteenth Form of Eagle Transformation to let the opponent's momentum reach a new peak before striking with all his strength.
Ba Fenghan suddenly stopped the moment Qu Aoteng leaped off the ground.
Qu Ao, who was already in the air, changed his expression again because Ba Fenghan could accurately grasp the timing of his leap and see through his intentions and methods.
This seems impossible but Ba Fenghan can do it.
Only at this moment did he understand why Huanwan couldn't do anything on the Tianjin Bridge even though he tried his best. Ba Fenghan also knew that he actually made a fatal mistake by underestimating his opponent.
The arrow is on the string.
If he changes his tactics or retreats, he will be trapped in a place of no return.
Qu Aofei flew to Bafenghan's head and turned into a simple tree, grabbing Bafenghan's head with his right hand.
This grasp seems not surprising, but the force is so strong that it makes people dare not to touch head-on. The most shocking thing is that it contains five true meanings: sucking, stabbing, unloading, sealing, and cutting at the same time. The power is unpredictable and difficult to defend against.
Ba Fenghan's eyes sparkled. He let out a long laugh and raised his Xuanxuan Sword upwards with a lateral movement.
Five explosions occurred in a series, and just when the sword claws touched each other, Qu Ao used his five fingers at a speed that was so fast that it was difficult to see clearly with his five fingers, using exquisite techniques such as pressing, hitting, sweeping, stabbing, and chopping to hit the Zhanxuan Sword.
Ba Fenghan groaned, staggered and fell two steps, but Qu Ao took advantage of the situation and soared two feet up, circling like a flying eagle in the air to organize the second round of offensive.
Chang Shumou and others over there burst into cheers when they saw that Ba Fenghan's energy was frustrated and he was at a disadvantage.
But Qu Ao knew his own suffering.
He was really afraid of Ba Fenghan's brilliant vision and unpredictable strategic changes, so he attacked with all his strength in the hope of hurting the enemy in one fell swoop. Then the only question left was how long the opponent could last.
Unexpectedly, Ba Fenghan's true energy actually changed five times in a row, blocking the Nine Transformations of Condensation he shot without even a step, and used his retreat to escape before he was about to catch his sword edge, making his back attack useless. I thought I had to fly into the air to continue my old career, but I couldn't take advantage of the situation to eliminate and attack.
This grasp was truly the result of Qu Ao's lifelong skill and intelligence. If it still failed to hurt Ba Fenghan, the blow to his confidence would be hard to estimate.
He couldn't understand why Ba Fenghan's internal swordsmanship had improved so rapidly in just a few days.
Below, Ba Fenghan circulated the zhenqi in his body that had been greatly improved by He's Bi's superpower, and immediately dispelled the zhenjin that Qu Ao had invaded. Zhuo stood still and waited for Qu Ao's second round of attacks.
Qu Ao suddenly used the force of an eagle to fight a rabbit and glided down three feet in the air.
The hands turned into thousands of claws, and the energy rushed wildly, covering the three-foot square ground with Ba Fenghan as the center. Everyone onlookers knew that this was a powerful move that forced the opponent to fight hard and not be able to dodge.
Although Ba Fenghan almost vomited blood due to the Qigong roll just now, due to the change in his physique, the true energy in his body has been restored and reached its peak state. Therefore, even under the enemy's stormy attack, his mind is still unmoved by the enemy.
In the earlier battle at Tianjin Bridge, he clearly knew that he was still inferior to Qu Ao in terms of skill, but because of Qu Ao's Eagle Transformation Thirteen Moves
He is good at changing his sword style and can't get much advantage from his own sword style. Therefore, he cleverly uses verbal means to weaken his momentum and confidence in his strength and make his opponent feel timid.
It's a very good start now.
Those who are less courageous would have to go on the defensive at this time. However, Ba Fenghan is an extraordinary person. He shouted coldly and used mysterious footwork with his feet. Each step can make the opponent elusive. His sword power cuts through the mysterious sword from unexpected angles. Slowly and uncertainly, he faced the claw shadows scattered in the sky.
The sound of claws and swords clashing sounded like a shower, sometimes densely packed and sometimes scattered.
The sword light flashed with cold light and lightning, and Qu Ao looked like an agile and unpredictable flying eagle, making various postures in the air, circling and striking, or flying sideways and upwards, as if it was completely weightless.
Chang Shumou and others all frowned because they knew that Qu Ao had already used all his strength to press the bottom of the box. But Ba Fenghan was as mighty as a god and used all his moves to block people.
Everyone was greatly surprised by his internal and external strength, which he did not give in to withstand Qu Ao's fierce attack that came down from the sky like a heavy rain and strong wind.
Everyone knows that although he is in a passive position, he has no signs of defeat and is waiting for the opportunity to counterattack. That will be the moment of Qu Ao's defeat.
Chang Shumou winked at Brother Geng Huer and Hua Lingzi and headed towards the two who were fighting fiercely.
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling had just arrived at the door and saw all the men guarding the door rushing outside to watch the battle from a distance.
Xu Ziling glanced at Kou Zhong with the plan of his uncle who was rushing to the side, and the latter shouted knowingly:
Ba Fenghan and Qu Ao are fighting here. Who would want to miss the sight?
The sound spread far and wide, not only echoing along the long street, but also reaching the Tinliu Pavilion.
Peng!
Qu Ao used all his strength to finally break through Ba Fenghan's tight sword net, which could easily hit the opponent's face, ending the fierce battle, but was blocked by Ba Fenghan's left hand and gave him a slap.
Ba Fenghan's whole body was shaken and the stone slab shattered when he stepped on it, and he spurted out a mouthful of blood.
Qu Ao was also thrown into the air by the force of the counter-shock. Although this palm injured his opponent, he felt no sense of pride in his heart. The most terrifying thing about Ba Fenghan was that he seemed to have endless potential. The more he fought, the more courageous he became. After such a long battle, he had no feeling of pride.
It is really harmful rather than beneficial.
Ba Fenghan's internal energy turned around and most of his internal injuries had recovered, and he quickly launched a counterattack.
Qu Ao was indeed the leading martial arts master among the Tiele people. It was only then that Ba Fenghan found a chance to counterattack from Qu Ao's fierce offensive that seemed to continue indefinitely.
The light of the sword is sharp.
Bafeng Hanren followed the force of his sword and turned it into a bolt of lightning that shot towards Qu Ao, who was still rising.
From the side of Manqingyuan, some of them with fluttering clothes grabbed some from the gate and simply jumped over the wall. The first ten people who came just happened to see Ba Fenghan's sword, which can be said to be the most powerful sword in the world.
Qu Aona wanted Ba Fenghan to be able to perform such a powerful and earth-shattering sword move after being injured. Knowing that something was wrong, he had no choice but to take a sip of his true strength and suppress his roiling blood before pounced with all his strength.
boom!
The sound of energy clashing echoed far and near.
Ba Fenghan flew sideways like a kite with its string cut off, then staggered to the ground and stood as steady as a mountain.
Qu Ao then circled and flew in front of his own troops before slowly landing.
Zheng!
The Xuanxuan Sword is sheathed.
Qu Ao's body was shocked when he heard the sound, and his eyes shot out with a fierce look and stared at Ba Fenghan who was five feet away.
The two looked at each other without giving in.
At this time, most people were already on the street, waiting for the results in silence.
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling arrived at Ba Fenghan's left and right sides.
Qu Ao's body suddenly shook violently again and the blood on his face disappeared.
There was a wave of exclamation from the bystanders. Now everyone knew that Qu Ao had lost, but they didn’t know where he was injured.
But the answer was revealed instantly. Blood seeped out from under Qu Ao's left side.
Qu Ao didn't have a hole to stop the bleeding. He first glanced at the three disciples and his men who had turned ashen-faced, then looked up and sighed:
Qu admired the hero so much that he immediately returned to Tiele and never set foot in the Central Plains again during his lifetime.
This oath is equivalent to announcing his withdrawal from all disputes in the Central Plains.
This is the skill and skill of Qu Ao. In this way, even though Fu Qian and others have a deep hatred for the Tiele people, they cannot openly pursue them due to the rules of the world.
Qu Ao flew off his horse and led his men away like a whirlwind.
Ba Fenghan and the others were about to leave. Someone among the bystanders laughed and said: How could Brother Ba leave without any explanation?
