Unparalleled Double Harmony

Chapter 503: One versus Eight Brave (Part )

The wind was blowing in the wild forest, and there were shadows of guns and lightsabers.

In the grove, three people were killed together.

But one person is advancing and two people are retreating.

The one who entered was, of course, Wu Mingzi.

As for the abbot and the Three-Character King...all one can say is that they are both very glad that they are fighting Wu Mingzi in an environment where they can "retreat".

Because if the three of them were fighting in a place with a wall and a roof, and they could not break the wall and escape with weapons, then Fang Wang and the other two would probably have been injured by now.

As for "now" you said, how long is it?

It was only after both sides exchanged about a hundred moves.

The most terrifying thing about Wu Mingzi is this - he can gradually find the "countermeasures" to restrain his opponents in battle, and thus become stronger with each battle.

Some people say that this is similar to the “sword master” Xiao Zhun?
Yes, not right.

Xiao Zhun is indeed good at "countermeasures", but his countermeasures rely on the ultimate "reason", so their upper limit is determined by the countless sword techniques that Xiao Zhun has studied.

Wu Mingzi's "countermeasures" rely more on talent. He does not need to "cultivate the strengths of all schools and understand their weaknesses" like Xiao Zhun. He only needs to rely on his own combat intuition, or even just "imagination", to naturally find out the opponent's weaknesses.

Of course, in the past few decades of his life, Wu Mingzi had encountered some people whom even he could not "deal with", but as time passed, such people became fewer and fewer.

After Wu Mingzi mastered his "unique skill", he thought to himself that there was no one he could not defeat, at least in the Central Plains martial arts world.

That’s why he was so “overly cautious” before.

That caution is to guard against factors other than direct confrontation, such as "precious weapons", "hidden weapons", "sneak attacks", etc.

Once the battle entered a face-to-face situation, even if it was one against two, even if it was against the abbot and the Three-Character King at the same time... Wu Mingzi never felt that he would lose.

"Hey, do you have any hidden tricks up your sleeve?" After the three of them had fought for a hundred rounds, the abbot finally couldn't help but ask the Three Character King this question.

"No." And the answer from the Three-Character King was not that surprising.

As a person who has just stepped over the threshold of a top-notch master, San Zi Wang is at the same level as the abbot, but there is still a gap between his martial arts foundation and the abbot.

And the abbot did not disappoint.

"Ha..." After a bitter laugh, the abbot continued, "Really?... Fortunately, I have it."

The reason why he smiled bitterly was that he didn't want to use the next few moves unless he had no other choice.

But now I have to use it even if I don’t want to, so…

"Wumingzi, just watch this!" The next second, the abbot stopped retreating, turned around and shouted.

When Wu Mingzi saw this, his first reaction was: Is this guy trying to trick me?
After all, according to common sense, if the abbot really had some tricks up his sleeve, he would just use them directly. Why would he shout first to put his opponent on guard?

But even though I thought so, I still had to guard against him.

Given Wu Mingzi's personality, it was impossible for him not to be on guard.

His logic is always... "Anyway, I'm stronger than you, and I can definitely beat you in a normal fight, so in many places I would rather suffer a loss than to capsize in the ditch, just to be safe."

However, there are some strange tricks in this world. If you don’t take them seriously, it’s okay... But once you take them seriously, you may be in trouble.

The so-called "idiot who defeats the master" is one of them.

The "secret weapon" that the abbot was going to use at this moment was of this type, which was why he didn't really want to show off these two moves in front of others...

"Wumingzi, my move is called 'Come with the Wind'!" No sooner said than done, the abbot's second sentence came out quickly along with his move.

So what kind of move is this?

Let me put it this way, it is to use a very slow jumping action off the ground as if floating, slowly jump up without any leverage, and then cross-legged and stay in the air, approaching the opponent... In short, it is a starting posture of "I don't know what this is for."

Let me put it bluntly, if the person standing here today was not Wu Mingzi, but just any second-rate figure in the martial arts world, and the other party did not know who the abbot was... then in his eyes, the abbot's move would be like "selling out".

Could this be a move used by a top-notch master? Even if you are a mediocre person who has just learned martial arts, if you have a master who has no grudge against you to guide you, you will not make such a move in actual combat.

But because of this, when Wu Mingzi saw this move... he was confused.

His combat instincts and martial arts talent were all meaningless at this moment.

If you ask him to not think about anything else and simply stab the abbot in mid-air with a sword, he will never dare to do that.

If you ask him to analyze the abbot's, the "gun king's" deeper intentions behind his actions, he won't be able to do it in a short time.

So, he... withdrew.

This is also the simplest and safest response.

In the final analysis, even if you let someone who has no martial arts skills to deal with the abbot's move, that person only needs to retreat a few steps at a speed slightly faster than the abbot's "hanging in the air" and he will be equally safe.

"What are you doing?" Wu Mingzi stepped back two meters before asking this question with a puzzled look on his face.

But the abbot did not answer him. After landing and standing firmly, he turned around and jumped up again with almost the same movements as before...

While dancing, he was still muttering: "I'm 'going with the wind' again..."

This time, Wu Mingzi was shocked.

The first word that popped into his mind was a curse: "What the hell are you doing here?"

Some people may not understand this. Why did a scheming person like Wu Mingzi not lose his temper in so many more infuriating moments before, but was defeated in the battle by the abbot's two "unique moves"?
Let me make an analogy. What just happened was like a top professional fighting game player who was playing against another player who was slightly weaker than him. He saw the opponent inexplicably perform a rising dragon in front of him, but the dragon missed... But since he didn't expect such a stupid scene to appear in an important game that depended on qualifying, he didn't even try to seize this huge flaw.

At this point, one can already imagine how regretful he is.

But what's even more amazing is that after the opponent's big flaw in his move ended, he immediately made a new Rising Dragon, and he did it with his butt facing you.

At this point, it feels like the other party doesn't want to fight you properly, but simply wants to tease you or humiliate you.

This is how Wu Mingzi feels at this moment...

Although he was vaguely aware that the abbot might be trying to provoke him and tempt him to act rashly, he really couldn't swallow this anger.

So he finally gave chase and backstabbed the abbot who was using "Go with the Wind".

Wu Mingzi thought that as long as he was more cautious and kept his eyes fixed on the spear in the opponent's hand, even if the opponent's move was really a "lure the enemy and then counterattack" move, he would be able to change his moves in time to deal with it.

After all, you must have used the force to counterattack, right? Unless you are a fly, not a human, how can you suddenly change direction and stab me with a gun in mid-air without using the force?
"drink--"

As it turned out, Wu Mingzi's guess was correct. The abbot was indeed unable to use a back-up move like "a suspended mid-air counterattack" which was theoretically difficult to implement under that action.

But... the abbot still successfully counterattacked using other methods.

The method was to thrust the gun tip hard into the ground in front of him, use the reaction force generated to suddenly stop his slow momentum in the air, and then perform an extremely sharp "back kick".

This kick was the abbot's real killer move that was foreshadowed by his "come with the wind" and "go with the wind".

This move looks like a leg technique, but it is actually a gun technique using the legs as guns. Its name is - "I hate it most when people say bad things about me behind my back."

It can be said that this is a set of self-created combos that fully demonstrates the petty character of the abbot.

The technique required for this move is also an obvious gap between ordinary spear users and the abbot.

Simply put, as the "Gun King", he is not restricted by weapons. Whether he uses precious weapons, ordinary weapons, or even no weapons... he can use his "gun skills".

"Well!"

On the other hand, Wu Mingzi also lost for the first time in this contest because of a certain "move".

Judging from the game between these three moves alone, he can be said to have been completely defeated.

A moment later, accompanied by a dull "bang" sound, Wu Mingzi was hit hard on the heart.

As we said just now, the abbot's kick was not a "leg technique" but a "gun technique", so what Wu Mingzi felt in his chest at this moment was not the impact force of being hit by a kick, but a penetrating force as if he was stabbed by a spear without a spear head.

The force was long and straight, piercing through his heart and back, directly stopping Wu Mingzi's heartbeat.

But in this situation, Wu Mingzi was still able to stand.

It was because at the last moment, he instinctively mobilized his internal energy to protect his heart; it was thanks to this that his stopped heartbeat came back two seconds later, but he then uncontrollably vomited a large mouthful of blood.

whoosh-

A moment later, before the blood from the internal injury spilled onto the ground, another thin sword came at him like thunder.

Of course, the Three-Character King knew that even if Wu Mingzi was hit by the abbot's "ultimate move", he would most likely not die.

As a "top-notch" master, he should have the ability to "save his life through emergency adjustments after being hit by certain special moves."

The chance of killing a top master with one blow by using some "unique moves" or "dirty tricks" is extremely small.

Being able to injure him is already a very good result.

Therefore, the Three-Character King once again demonstrated his killer qualities. In the brief interval when Wu Mingzi was spitting blood and stiffening, he delivered this fatal sword.

At least... he thought it was fatal.

Ding--

The next second, the sound of metal breaking and the strange feedback from his hand shattered the Three-Character King's thoughts.

Wu Mingzi, who had just suffered a serious injury, unexpectedly made an incredible extreme response again between life and death.

He was seen standing in place, holding the hilt of the sword in his right hand, and with a not-too-fast movement, he swung the sword upwards, using the tip of the long sword in his hand to meet the tip of the thin sword of the Three-Character King.

The tips of these two swords are naturally different. To describe it, the former is similar to a very short horizontal line, while the latter is close to a point.

To make these two things come into contact while running at high speed and collide at almost the same angle, common sense says... it is simply a fantasy.

However, Wu Mingzi completed this perfect and precise interception simply by predicting the opponent's sword path.

And because the swords of these two men were both top-quality weapons and of similar quality, after this extreme collision, the tips of both swords were broken.

But, this is not the end yet.

The sword suffers the same fate, but the man does not.

At the moment when these two men were fighting, San Zi Wang was in an attacking posture, his arms were stretched forward, and he was sprinting forward at high speed.

Wu Mingzi stood still, with his arms bent in front of his chest and his hand holding the hilt of the sword in reverse.

In comparison, Wu Mingzi's posture is undoubtedly more stable, and he can better dissipate the force he is subjected to.

Besides, even without considering their postures, the difference in internal strength between the two is obvious.

A middle-aged man who has practiced orthodox internal skills from a prestigious sect since childhood must have much stronger internal strength than a young man who has practiced unconventional martial arts since childhood.

Therefore, after this sword fight, San Zi Wang's entire arm was repelled by the force of the "collapse sword", and it went numb all the way to his shoulder and ribs, causing him to stagger half a step to the side and lose his balance.

After Wu Mingzi completed the interception steadily, he immediately raised his left hand to wipe the remaining blood clots in his mouth. Then he opened his palm and threw a few clots of blood towards San Zi Wang's face.

This... is not just an ordinary dirty trick.

These pieces of "flying blood" with palm power shot towards the eyes at such a close distance. If they hit the Three Character King's eyes, it would not be surprising that they would explode on the spot.

San Zi Wang knew that he couldn't dodge in time, and there was nothing he could do but raise his unnumbed arm to protect his face. As a result, that arm was punctured with several holes by the blood clots thrown out by Wu Mingzi.

"Die!" Wu Mingzi had no intention of giving the other party a break. The next second, he gritted his teeth and groaned, and attacked again with the broken sword in his hand.

At this point in the battle, Wu Mingzi seemed to have entered an abnormal state.

Unexpected injuries and multiple near-death experiences made the "genius swordsman" blood in his body gradually agitated. He had unknowingly abandoned his disguise and caution... and what took over his body was his astonishing talent and instinct.

The best proof of this is that he was able to use extreme moves time and time again in battle that he himself had never imagined.

To put it more bluntly... Although Wu Mingzi is already a top master, in this battle, he is still "growing" at an astonishing speed, and it is "passive growth."

However, just when he was about to let go and start killing, something strange happened dozens of meters behind him!
call out--

At that moment, a long whistle was heard, and then a black shadow with a trail of white smoke rose to the sky, exploded in the air, and bloomed into a square-shaped firework.

With such a big commotion, it was impossible for Wu Mingzi not to look back.

As a result, when he looked, he saw six people coming to the place where the "fireworks" were rising.

"Boss Ding, you are not taking this for fun, right?" Yu Wang asked Ding without hesitation.

Ding couldn't help shrugging his shoulders and replied calmly: "Don't you think I have a group of trusted guards with strong martial arts skills who are always available? Then I will call them over to show you."

"Then why didn't you call earlier?" Yu Wang asked again.

"Nonsense, I will only send out the signal when I am near the enemy." Ding kept replying, "If I send it out halfway, what if my men miss it when they arrive?"

"Okay, okay..." Yu Wang knew he couldn't win the argument, so he said, "Then, the rest of us... can just hold out until your men arrive?"

Rather than asking a question, what he said was more of an expression of his expectations.

"Hmm..." Ding couldn't help looking at Yu Wang, then at the three people in the distance, and then continued, "Look..."
