Chapter 43 Fierce Battle
The red clouds dye the winter moon palace.
The golden evil descended to the Hua Yuting Court.
At this moment, the death battle between the two masters was about to break out.
But no one was thinking about intervening in this showdown.
After all, the atmosphere has come to this place, and everyone wants to see who gave Huang Donglai the courage to challenge this mysterious swordsman who suppressed nearly 80% of the security forces in the imperial office with his own strength.
Of course, "mystery" is just for those who don't know his identity, and the others in the assassination team still know their identity.
The man wearing a golden music mask is named Ji Zong, who is the descendant of the sword technique of "Ma Wuzhen Yingliu".
The Ma Wuzhen Yingliu is considered an alien in the Japanese martial arts world: no one knows who its founder was, how many years it has been passed down, and how many descendants it has; people have only heard that this genre never opens a temple, and does not pay attention to any class family when it is passed on...
This was undoubtedly a puzzling approach in Japan at that time.
As we have said before, the ultimate goal of most Japanese warriors in this era is to complete class leap by relying on martial arts, so opening a temple, challenging everywhere, earning fame, taking noble children, or directly serving as "sword teacher" for daimyo masters, etc. is normal. Only in this way can they use the appreciation of the ruling class to spread martial arts and become famous... Even Miyamoto Musashi cannot avoid the vulgarity.
But the pioneer of Ma Wuzhen Yingliu obviously did not care whether his name would be remembered, nor did he care about his successor's origin. He seemed to just want his sword to be better and more complete, and nothing else mattered.
Therefore, in this sect, there are often descendants like Jizong who are of extraordinary qualifications but do not even have a surname, and many of them are even more involved in the attributes of murderers.
But it is precisely because this school exudes this "no taboo" atmosphere of seeking Tao everywhere, so it also has something that other Japanese martial arts lack - pure.
Ma Wuzhen Yingliu is the purest killing sword, and does not consider functions such as Taoist competitions or honing one's mind. Everything it contains is just for killing.
It is probably also for this purpose that Ma Wuzhen Yingliu is also rare. He learned the concept of Central Plains martial arts and created a set of Japanese swordsmanship that is not inferior to the internal strength of Central Plains.
In other words, the successors of this swordsmanship are much deeper in their internal skills than other Japanese warriors who have only practiced the "breathing method combined with moves".
Ji Zong can attack the slashes in the distance, which is a good proof.
However, his slash is essentially a special attack produced by specific internal and external powers. It is similar to Zhao Tiaotian's "Shadowless Sword", which is not the same as a true internal power expert who directly releases his widely available internal power.
When facing an opponent without internal strength, the attack effect of the two seems to be no different, but when Ji Zong meets an opponent like Huang Donglai who has practiced excellent internal strength "no strange skills", the situation is different...
scold--
Let’s talk about this moment, the sword’s edge suddenly moved and the slash reappeared.
This move that Ji Zong carefully used his "attack posture" was more urgent and dangerous than the previous casual strike.
Huang Donglai here... Because when he was wandering around the street with Sun Yixie this morning, he didn't bring his luggage or weapons at all, so the village sword must be not at hand at this time, so he could only provoke the weapons on the ground to defend the enemy again.
Fortunately, the yard was covered with corpses and weapons at this time, so Huang Donglai also reached out to find it.
This time, Huang Donglai picked up an ordinary samurai sword, and he did not "scatter his hands" to resist the attack like he did when he used the ninja knife just now, but directly held the knife and swung it towards the slash.
Buzz —
There was another strange sound, and this time, Huang Donglai seemed to have "swept away" the other party's slash.
"Ha... it's really a paper tiger." Seeing this result, Huang Donglai showed a smile that he deserved to be beaten and mocked him.
Just now, when he took over Ji Zong's first slash, Huang Donglai threw the ninja sword out of caution and broke the move. In case of any accident, he still had room to avoid it.
But after taking it, Brother Huang roughly understood that the other party's slash was not a "sword energy"...
Sword energy is a kind of change in shape by using the sword under the premise of "the integration of man and sword", and then leaves the user's body and attacks the internal force in the distance; the one released by Xiao Zhun in Wujian Villa was called "sword energy".
The long-range slash released by Ji Zong in front of him is more similar to the "blade-shaped air cannon" that combines internal strength and moves, acts on the blade itself, and then uses the blade to shoot in the air.
This kind of slash will be dispersed by the latter when it comes into contact with the real "outer release of internal force", or if it does not need to release it... just "pure internal force wrapped around the weapon".
Of course, Huang Donglai understood the tricks in this, but Ji Zong didn’t understand them.
Ji Zong has not seen anyone blocking his own slash. As long as those Japanese martial arts masters of the same level as him can use weapons to block such attacks. But Ji Zong is indeed the first time he sees someone like Huang Donglai who will "evaporate" and not even have a little forward force.
"Who is your sage? Can you please report it..." Ji Zong, who realized that the other party's amazing strength, finally took Huang Donglai seriously and wanted to ask his name.
"I'll report to your mother!" But Huang Donglai had no intention of answering this.
He came with a mission, and he knew very well that at this moment, there were still many enemies around the imperial office watching from a high place. Isn’t it that I could eat enough to report my name to show off?
Dangdangdang——
Before Huang Donglai's scolding was over, he had already used his light skills to fly forward. In a flash, he rushed to Ji Zong, intending to fight quickly.
At this time, Ji Zong was shocked when he was hasty to block: "This guy's body movement is so fast! But... why is his moves so bad?"
Yes, to this day, Huang Donglai still doesn’t have any weapons and moves...
So although his internal and light skills are higher than Ji Zong, in the weapon duel, he still... cut his head vertically on the upper part and the middle part horizontally on the waist. After these two hands were easily blocked, he changed his angle, cut his head again, and cut his waist again...
If you use the village Haosword to fight like this, plus his internal strength, it is reasonable, because after repeating this several times, the enemy's weapons may be cut off, or a certain internal injury will accumulate, but now he is using an ordinary samurai sword...
So, after several rounds of these, although Ji Zong was indeed shocked to the point where blood in his chest was surging, it was not difficult to block this attack itself, and the weapon in Huang Donglai's hand was broken first.
"It's now!" The moment when the samurai sword in Huang Donglai's hand was broken, Ji Zong couldn't help but shout lightly when he saw that there was a gap.
The move comes with the sound. Ji Zong bent his knees and his energy sinks into his Dantian, but his upper body is erect and unchanged. His sword move returns first and then comes out, and when he breaks, he feels like the waning moon is full, and a piece of arc is cut out.
Huang Donglai was also shocked by the sudden next attack. He had only a broken blade left in his hand and had to retract his feet on the spot, jump high, and curl up to dodge.
Although this panic reaction allowed him to successfully avoid the crisis of being slashed on both knees, it also revealed a big flaw.
Ji Zong would never miss this opportunity. He then used his squat force to move forward, exert his strength, and then turned his sword backwards, and slashed his sleeves.
Huang Donglai was in mid-air and had no hands behind his back. When he was forced by this sharp sword style, he could only raise the half-handled broken blade to block it.
Hiss—when!
However, Huang Donglai caused the broken blade to slash against the opponent's long blade, barely completing the power removal, and finally barely hit the attack with the sword.
But at this point, Huang Donglai finally used his weakness to control the strong. After blocking the sword, cracks appeared on his wrist bone, and the force of the slash increased his time to stagnate the air a little more, but he still couldn't completely escape from danger.
"Hmph... die!" At this time, Ji Zong was also excited.
He was already a little timid by Huang Donglai, but the changes between these two moves made him regain his confidence. After all, masters like him have the first-class ability to interpret the battle situation. He almost understood that Huang Donglai's strength is internal strength, and his weakness lies in his "touches". As long as there is a weakness... it is not invincible.
"The secret of Ma Wuzhen's shadow flow--the full moon killing sword!"
At this moment, the shout suddenly arose, Ji Zong's body grew sharply, and the blade in his hand also turned into a long light.
In a breath, the figures and sword light melted into a blurred straight line at the speed of rapid increase, and they were barely pointed at the toes, and Huang Dong was attacking.
Even Huang Donglai himself did not expect that this duel would develop into such a fierce battle...
He thought that he would have the advantage after cracking his opponent's long-range slash, but he did not expect that Ji Zong's melee ability was more sophisticated and powerful than his long-range slashes.
Now it seems that the death of these corpses on the ground has become a stumbling block that confuses Huang Donglai, because these people cannot force Ji Zong to use any melee moves, so Huang Donglai, who saw these corpses, also misjudged Ji Zong's fighting style.
"It's over! A is so happy this time, he's going to suffer a lot!" At this moment, Huang Donglai said in his heart that he could only think of a way to deal with Ji Zong's final killing.
Scream—
The next second, a blood mist floated all over the sky.
In such a short moment, Ji Zong felt that he had won because his sword had successfully cut open the muscles on Huang Donglai's shoulders and neck, and then he would slash into the other party's chest.
But at this moment, Huang Donglai, who did not retreat but advanced, successfully took a half step forward, approached the deepest part of Ji Zong's attack, and used the arm that was not cut to grab Ji Zong's hands holding the sword.
The position where Huang Donglai is standing at this moment is to describe it, when you cut potatoes with a kitchen knife, the closest position to the index finger of the hand holding the knife, and he is the potato.
At present, Huang Donglai used his internal force to use a single palm to curb the source of the opponent's force, that is, holding the knife, while continuing to lean forward... In this strange posture, his collarbone turned into the last barrier to protect his chest... let Ji Zong's slash stuck on this line.
But the wound is undoubtedly very deep.
At this time, Huang Dongzhi did not dare to be any more arrogant, nor would he give the other party any chance. He grabbed Ji Zong's short second, which was surprised by the attack being blocked, and used his injured and drooping arm to take out a hidden weapon from his belt and shoot it out with his blink of an eye.
The real hidden weapon, driven by internal power, can naturally exert more power than the stones picked up on the ground. In addition, the distance of this attack was very close, and Ji Zong was killed immediately as if he was pierced through the heart with a pistol from a close distance.
Almost as he lost his strength, Sun Yixie also appeared behind Huang Donglai.
It is obvious that Brother Sun saw that the situation was wrong, so he ignored the fairness or not, and wanted to come up to help with two against one. However, when he ran closer, Huang Donglai happened to get the opponent.
"Mom! Are you fucking?" Two seconds later, Sun Yixie held Huang Donglai who was staggering. After looking at the wound and confirming that Brother Huang could not die, he cursed, "If you want to overturn, you'll scream."
Chapter completed!
