Chapter 131 A golden crow hangs in the sky, and the infinite sword illuminates the mountains and rivers
Game time is on the fifth day of August in the first year of the lunar calendar at noon.
Outside the hillock about five miles away from Pegasus Ranch, Cheng Peng, Qiao Xi, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were sitting in the shade of a tree and resting.
Qiao Xi had just arrived. He and Hou Xibai were collecting Hu people's music in the Western Regions. After receiving the message from Cheng Peng, he hurried over. He rode non-stop all the way, killing twelve horses in front and behind, and he also
He was as tired as a dead dog - even after resting for almost ten minutes, his physical strength was still hovering in the "extremely exhausted" zone, and he still could not regain his fighting power.
But it doesn't matter. Cheng Peng invited him here not to fight, but to be a notary.
As for Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, Cheng Peng actually didn't want them to come, because they were only two-stars and were somewhat in danger in the confrontation between two elite three-star masters. But they insisted on cheering for their eldest brother, and he also
It’s hard to say no.
What's more... In fact, having some help may not be a bad thing.
Although he never fought against Bai Yu, Cheng Peng at least had a fight with Jin Yu.
In terms of strength, Jin Yu is only slightly stronger than Qiao Xi.
If Bai Yu and Jin Yu come together and start a melee, then Cheng Peng alone will definitely not be able to handle it, and Qiao Xi, who is half exhausted, may not be enough.
Therefore, even if the strength of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling is difficult to help at the moment, they can at least provide some support.
Anyway, as the two of them are the protagonists, and they are protected by the master of the system, they will never encounter any big danger. As an output, they are unqualified, but as a human shield, they are perfect.
…But it’s best not to have that happen.
Amid my wild thoughts, the sun gradually rose to the top of the sky.
Kou Zhong, who had a somewhat impetuous personality, jumped up impatiently, climbed up the tree and looked around, looking for Bai Yu's figure, and kept muttering, "Is this evil bitch afraid to come? It must be like this..."
"
After a while, his words suddenly stopped.
"Here we come." Xu Ziling said.
Cheng Peng still closed his eyes and rested his mind.
The surrounding temperature slowly dropped, and finally it became like winter.
Cheng Peng did not open his eyes.
The temperature was still dropping, and soon even Cheng Peng felt the slightest chill.
"Bai Yu, look, there are several frozen corpses here!"
A soft and smiling voice sounded, and it was an unknown girl.
Cheng Peng opened his eyes and saw Bai Yu standing not far away, and a girl who was about seventeen or eighteen years old. She was obviously oriental in appearance, but had blond hair and was wearing a heavy burqa that was completely inconsistent with the season.
Of course it was this girl who had just opened her mouth to make fun of them.
"Is this the notary you brought?" He stood up and looked at Bai Yu calmly, completely ignoring the blond girl who was unhappy because she was ignored. "She looks very unreliable."
"Don't underestimate me! Although I'm not as good as Sister Bai Yu, I'm still much better than the guy you brought lying on the ground panting!"
Cheng Peng still ignored the girl.
"I'm curious about one thing." He said, "You are going to stand up for Jin Yu, right? But why don't you bring him to help? If you two join forces, I will probably be invincible."
"You don't have to trick me anymore." Bai Yu spoke, and his cold breath made the surrounding temperature seem to drop a few degrees lower. "Did you bring the scabbard?"
"Of course, but what about your bet? Don't tell me that you have no bet. In that case, beware that I will go to Goryeo after five stars and kill the Yijian sect to extinction!" Cheng Peng's tone gradually became colder, "Do you think Fu Cailin can stop it?
Will you stay with me?"
Just as Bai Yu used Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling to threaten him, he can also use the people of Yijian Sect to threaten Bai Yu.
Cheng Peng doesn't mind a fair duel, but that doesn't mean he will stupidly accept an unfair bet like "If you win, I'll hand over the scabbard. If I win, you just slap your ass and walk away."
.
A gentleman can be deceived, but it is based on the premise of not knowing the truth, just like Yu Shun was plotted against by his brother Xiang again and again - it was not that he was stupid, it was just that he did not expect that his brother would actually kill him.
Cheng Peng certainly does not belong to the ranks of those who “do not know the truth”.
Bai Yu was silent for a while and took out a golden wooden cup.
"The Holy Grail comes from "The Age of Discovery"." She said, "It can collect other people's gratitude to the holder and turn it into up to one cup of holy water. Drinking the holy water for the first time can improve your physical condition, but in the future it can only be used to heal or dispel.
Evil—I don’t know who drank the first portion. How about this as a bet?”
"Although it's a little bad, it's better than nothing." Cheng Peng laughed, and it was only then that he felt relieved.
Obviously, this Holy Grail was specially prepared by Bai Yu as a bet.
Regardless of its popularity or ability, it is quite similar to King Arthur's scabbard, so it is indeed a very suitable bet.
"Is this enough as a bet?" Bai Yu said and sent the duel application form.
Cheng Peng nodded, carefully read the entire content of the duel application for the last time, and then solemnly signed it.
Of course, all this was done in the player channel. Although Qiao Xi and the blond girl knew what happened, Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling could only see Cheng Peng and Bai Yu looking at each other motionless, as if they were watching each other with big eyes.
Staring like little eyes.
"Is this the so-called 'battle in the spiritual realm'?" Kou Zhong said excitedly, "This is the first time I have seen a battle at this level!"
Xu Ziling was much calmer and more perceptive than him. He said nothing and just frowned. His intuition told him that the two sides did not seem to be fighting, but his intuition also told him that the two sides were indeed competing... What on earth was going on?
What's going on?
Fortunately, he didn't have to worry about it for long.
After agreeing on the bet, Cheng Peng and Bai Yu quickly started fighting.
The battle was very simple at the beginning. Bai Yu fully unfolded a set of magnificent sword skills and fought with Cheng Peng who also used battle array marksmanship.
Both parties know that this is just a test.
Regardless of Cheng Peng or Bai Yu, their respective special skills are neither swordsmanship nor marksmanship.
With a crisp "ding" sound, the ancient sword and the gorgeous trident collided lightly, and then bounced away.
Cheng Peng used Huajianyou, ignored the inertia and changed his retreat to advance, and launched a pursuit.
Ever since he learned how to swim among flowers, this skill of continuous pursuit has been achieved.
Although it sounds very simple and doesn't seem like a big deal, in actual combat, this kind of continuous pursuit that ignores inertia is actually very powerful. Even the gatekeeper of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, Hong Meiling, a five-star monster with an unknown identity,
He has a good temper, strong boxing skills, and is good at using "qi" - he was once in a hurry under Cheng Peng's weird attacks.
So Bai Yu is naturally no exception!
Facing Cheng Peng's unexpected pursuit, Bai Yu seemed a little unprepared, but she reacted very quickly. Seeing that it was too late to retract the long sword in her right hand that had been thrown out by the previous hit, she turned her left hand over, and a delicate sword suddenly appeared in her palm.
Red dragonfly.
She didn't even see her exert any force. The small dragonfly had already flown out and flew straight to Cheng Peng's door.
If Cheng Peng was determined to pursue, a strike from the trident would definitely severely injure Bai Yu, but this meant that he would also have to endure a blow from this weird red dragonfly.
And if he doesn't pursue it, the next time he uses this move, it won't have this effect.
what to do?
Cheng Peng didn't think twice and decisively stepped back to avoid the red dragonfly.
Although I don't know what's weird about this dragonfly, since Bai Yu dares to use this to hurt both sides, it means that this dragonfly must be very powerful.
Taking such a blow to the face, the injury is a trivial matter, but if it affects the eyesight, it will be very detrimental to the subsequent battle.
So he could only retreat.
However, he soon came to admire his foresight.
Because, he saw that red dragonfly exploded!
A small red dragonfly, only half the size of a finger at most, can explode with considerable power.
"What kind of hidden weapon is this?" he asked curiously, "I have never seen such a hidden weapon."
Bai Yu didn't answer, and the simple long sword made a virtual circle and slashed at him from a distance.
As soon as the sword was slashed out, a sheet of frost suddenly formed in the air, fluttering like snow.
The ice and snow are nothing to be afraid of, but the sword energy in the frost should not be underestimated.
Cheng Peng dodged and quickly moved to the side, completely avoiding the possible impact of the sword.
Even if he has a scabbard to protect him and has endless physical strength, there is no need to fight like this.
But before he could stand firm, Bai Yu's sword force came again.
This time, she pressed the tip of her sword against the ground that had turned into frozen soil, and raised her hand to create a half-moon-shaped ice flower.
Cheng Peng dodged again.
But his heart was full of surprise.
Bai Yu used sword energy to attack. This kind of attack would be nothing in the hands of a player from a fantasy world, but he could clearly feel that Bai Yu was not a fantasy player, but a warrior like him.
Tie.
Her sword energy attack is completely driven by strong internal force. Although this kind of attack is very powerful, it also consumes a lot of money. It is not a good idea to choose this method of attack.
But Bai Yu still used up his internal energy without hesitation to carry out this powerful but inefficient attack.
What surprised Cheng Peng even more was that her internal strength seemed to be endless. Even if she kept wielding the sword energy, she did not show any signs of fatigue. Instead, she gradually pushed Cheng Peng into a state of embarrassment.
"Sure enough, I'm not the only one with a unique skill!" When he encountered such a powerful enemy, he was not surprised but overjoyed, "Sure enough, this trip was not in vain!"
He is not worried about Bai Yu's sword energy. He has many ways to deal with an attack of this level.
For example... a direct assault!
After dodging another sword attack, he shouted loudly, raised his halberd and charged forward.
This timing was extremely clever. Bai Yu's sword happened to be facing in another direction, and he had no time to fight back.
But this time, Cheng Peng was ready. Even if she sent out that weird red dragonfly again, she could still dodge and continue attacking at the same time!
If Bai Yu's skills stop here, then this duel should end here!
