He is also proficient in the earth element, but he is not stupid enough to get into the earth and play in the mud with everyone.
He has a treasure, the Golden Lock of the Earth, which is not used to deal with people, but is used to capture earth beasts. It can seal the strata in an area, making the earth escape technique ineffective, and finally shrink the cage. , forming a net cage to take the earth beast out of the ground.
It's a bit whimsical to use the treasures used to deal with spiritual beasts to deal with human cultivation, but the things that happen in cultivation are inherently wonderful ideas, and they have the same purpose. Humans and beasts are both cultivation creatures, so there seems to be nothing wrong with them?
As a veteran who is accustomed to stealth killing, he knows very well why the swordsman would learn this earth escape that is completely incompatible with the flying sword. There is no doubt that it is a back-up prepared for him because he knows that he has too many enemies. It is very whimsical. idea.
It was precisely because of this that he judged that the sword cultivator's knowledge of the Five Elements Technique was probably limited. He had not been in Taoism for a long time, and he was practicing Earth Escape, which had nothing to do with flying swords. Then the remaining energy could never be devoted to the transformation of the Five Elements. Instead, he will focus on the flying sword itself.
The golden lock that binds the earth has such limitations. If a Taoist monk is unable to escape from the earth, he will naturally think of other methods. How can a magic weapon that traps earth and beasts trap a Dharma cultivator?
But sword cultivators are not law cultivators, and most of them won't focus on this. This is his chance.
He couldn't imprison the ground; neither could a golden lock imprison a person. The greatest significance of using this magical weapon was to determine the sword cultivator's underground location, and then use his spells to strike on the ground.
To this end, he prepared many means of attack, including magic weapons, talismans, and very targeted wood-moving techniques.
He was confident that as long as the sword cultivator couldn't release the flying sword, he could trap him underground and turn him into a dead rat.
The Golden Lock is still being closed and closed. When the locking range is reduced to within ten feet, he can take action.
He actually hopes that the swordsman will break in violently, so that he can now determine the specific location of the person and severely damage him before he breaks out.
...Hou Zi really doesn't understand the five elements and has no similar practical experience at all. This is a natural shortcoming of sword cultivators. A person's energy is always limited. After spending most of his time on flying swords, it will be very difficult. It is difficult to ponder the principles of the five elements and their restraints all day long like Taoist monks do.
However, during his contact with the underground cage, he still keenly discovered the weaknesses of the opponent's methods: more control but insufficient power.
The cage itself has no ability to harm him, but it can clearly mark his location, and the real impact is on the ground.
He still has another trick, if it doesn't work, then he can only try hard; his training time is too short and his foundation is not enough, which is the true reflection of him now.
Slowly approach the cage with your body, mobilize the Qi of your Dantian, reach out and slowly insert it, and then use your strength!
It is not destruction by force, nor can the way of changing the Five Elements be changed by force. What he possesses is the thunder attribute that he has practiced hard in the Thunder Triangle for half a year. Even if his own thunder power is still very weak, if he only breaks the five elements of the cage, he will be able to destroy it. if……
After all, the Golden Rope is just a magic weapon for locking earth beasts. Its production obviously did not take into account the thunder attributes of earth beasts. Under the instant oscillation of thunder, the power of the golden lock was eliminated, and Hou Zi was also there. Instantly regain the ability to escape from earth.
As soon as the body jumps up, it will escape from the ground.
...The Taoist's feeling was very clear. He knew that the sword cultivator was going to die.
Everything was as expected, and human cultivators couldn't be as helpless as earth beasts. Although he didn't know what method the sword cultivator used to break his golden lock, he was able to accurately do so at this moment.
to determine the location where the other party unearthed the material.
A Lishan Seal, a Golden Spear Talisman, and a Wood Thorn Technique are released at the same time. As long as the swordsman gets out of the ground, he will be hit by the three spells at the same time.
The Lishan Seal is pressing down, making it impossible for the sword to gain momentum; the Golden Spear Talisman is the main attack, which is extremely sharp;
As an experienced whale hunter, he has a good sense of timing and spells. In this line of work, forceful killing is the best strategy, and more emphasis is placed on ambush and killing. The perception of monks in the Tongxuan Realm is limited, which makes some ambushes
The means become possible, and when the realm is really high, no one can sneak attack anyone.
A sharp Qi suddenly burst out from the ground, ignoring the three spells and heading straight for the Taoist at low altitude. Before he could get close, the cold and sharp Qi was already something he could not ignore.
Quickly organize defense, move your hands together, and when all the weapons and talismans are released, the wood spine technique disappears naturally, and then the golden gun talisman also loses its effect.
While the Taoist successfully blocked the flying sword, a figure from the ground rose into the sky. With a move of his hand, the flying sword spun and slashed down again, turning and slashing in a seamless manner.
Sighing in his heart, knowing that he had lost his best opportunity, the Taoist did not hesitate, stretched out his hand to retrieve a few magic weapons, transformed into a rainbow shadow, turned around and left.
The most important thing in this profession is to know how to advance and retreat. It is not worth fighting against a swordsman who is in a berserk state; what he is looking for is resources, and resources need to be alive to enjoy.
...Hou Zi slashed out with his sword, but he didn't expect the opponent to flee without a fight. He did not choose to pursue him because the opponent did not refuse to fight, but retreated tactically.
This is a spiritual monk whose realm is still above him.
Seeing that rainbow shadow walking resolutely, I couldn't help but admire in my heart. It can be said that this Taoist is very proficient in using the method of advance and retreat. From this, it can be judged that he is just doing things for others, and he does not have much to do with him.
There is nothing surprising about this attack. Whether it was the associates of the Black and White Shuangsha, the secret sect of the Wu clan, or other forces that he inadvertently offended, it was only a matter of time.
It's a good thing.
Because it taught him a lesson: Earth Elemental Escape is not omnipotent, especially in such a relatively closed environment. He may be more familiar with it, but it will also bring opportunities to his opponents.
But in the areas where these Taoists are good at, he has not invested enough time, and it is impossible to study the transformation of the Five Elements just because of this.
Earth Escape can be used as a surprise weapon, but it cannot be relied upon for battle.
His mistake was the Thousand Miles Map arranged underground on Crab Claw Island. This thing could indeed help him to be as comfortable as a fish in water when he escaped from the earth, but it also indirectly exposed the characteristics of his martial arts, and he was seized the opportunity to use it.
This time the danger happened.
The main reason why he was able to make a comeback under the opponent's blockade was the special way of firing the flying sword; because the flying sword was hidden in the Zi Mansion, and the Zi Mansion was not a real place, so when the flying sword was summoned it was not
It must appear from inside the body, or it can appear from near the body.
It's just that in most cases, sword cultivators fire flying swords from their bodies to save trouble, such as using hand gestures or spitting flying swords. In fact, these are just tricks.
Hou Zi can control the flying sword to appear within one foot of his body, so he does not need to get out of the ground, he only needs to launch the sword from one foot below the ground.
It is precisely because of this small oversight that the killer's preparations were in vain.
This is a battle between monks, full of uncertainties. Anyone may make mistakes, but the key is not to make mistakes in the end.
