We're practicing all martial arts, so why did you switch to easy mode?

Chapter 110: The Third Level of Hunyuan Technique, a Great Increase in Strength, Fighting the Blood Blade Sect

He Yuan and his son did not immediately agree to Su Chen's request, but they also did not drive him away. Instead, they let him wait in the main hall.

The two went to the study in the backyard.

“Father, I think this guy named ‘Lu Xiaofeng’ can be trusted. At this point, the Blood Blade Sect has no reason to play games with us and send someone to deceive us.”

He Chong spoke first, expressing his thoughts. Although he did not know Su Chen's background or details, he guessed that Su Chen had no connection with the Blood Blade Sect.

They had already been forced to this point by the Blood Blade Sect and were at their last gasp. The Blood Blade Sect had no reason or need to use any tricks or schemes against them. A direct confrontation was far more straightforward than any conspiracy or scheme.

Hearing He Chong's words, He Yuan nodded. Based on his understanding of the Blood Blade Sect, they would not send someone to test them like this. So this person must have learned of their difficulties and came to them on purpose.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have offered such conditions.

"That's true, but this person is taking himself way too seriously. He's asking for ninety percent of my Hunyuan Sect's assets, as well as our sect's signature technique, the Hunyuan Gong. What's the difference between this and looting when someone is in trouble?"

Thinking of this, He Yuan was furious. He was so angry when he heard the conditions Su Chen proposed!
Neither ninety percent of his possessions nor the Hunyuan Gong were acceptable to him, and Su Chen was determined not to budge on either of these conditions. If it weren't for He Chong's persuasion, he would have already taken action against him.

He Chong sighed, looked at He Yuan, and said with a hint of determination in his eyes: "Father, money can be earned back. As for the Hunyuan Gong, it is practically useless in our generation. We might as well give it up. As long as we, father and son, are alive, we will have a chance to make a comeback!"

"Sigh!" He Yuan sighed deeply, and under He Chong's gaze, finally nodded, "Alright, since you've said so, let's take the gamble. But before agreeing to this person's request, I need to test his strength."

After discussing it for a while, the two went to the lobby. Su Chen had already heard the commotion inside and turned around to wait for the two to appear.

"Sir, we can agree to your conditions, but how can you prove that you have enough strength to help us stop the Blood Blade Sect?" He Yuan asked bluntly.

Su Chen understood the implication in his words, so he asked, "How do you intend to prove it?"

"It's simple, have a match with me."

As soon as He Yuan finished speaking, he launched the first attack. With a swift and powerful stride, he leaped in front of Su Chen, his five fingers forming a claw as he reached for Su Chen's shoulder.

Su Chen slightly turned his body, suddenly raised his arm, and with a violent jolt, shook off He Yuan's arm. Then, he swayed his body, took a step forward, and gently struck out with his palm, instantly hitting He Yuan's body and knocking him back several steps, causing him to fall heavily onto a chair.

"father……"

The chair tilted backward, but He Yuan managed to pull it back with his foot. He Chong saw this and called out in concern, but He Yuan stopped him by looking up.

He coughed lightly, then stood up and said, "I'm fine."

Having said that, he looked at Su Chen, cupped his hands and said, "Your Excellency is indeed formidable; I humbly admit defeat."

With just one move, he concluded that Su Chen's strength far surpassed his own. Although he was surprised, he was even more reassured about Su Chen's identity.

Even if the Blood Blade Sect were to hire someone, they might not hire a martial artist of Su Chen's strength. This person in front of them is probably truly unrelated to the Blood Blade Sect.

Upon hearing He Yuan's change in attitude, Su Chen replied calmly, "You're too kind."

"Mr. Lu, please wait a moment." He Yuan clasped his hands in a fist and turned to add, "Chong'er, please take care of Mr. Lu for a moment."

"Yes!" He Chong nodded.

After He Yuan left, He Chong looked at Su Chen, hesitant to speak, and tentatively asked, "Judging from Mr. Lu's accent, he doesn't seem to be from Dafeng City?"

Su Chen nodded.

"Mr. Lu, do you know the overall strength of the Blood Blade Sect?" He Yuan asked again, unwilling to give up after seeing Su Chen's perfunctory answer.

Su Chen shook his head.

He Yuan spoke up: "The Blood Blade Sect Master is a martial artist who has reached the Great Perfection of Internal Organ Refinement. Mr. Lu, are you confident in dealing with him?"

Su Chen didn't say anything.

The atmosphere was somewhat somber. He Chong pursed his lips and asked seriously, "Mr. Lu, if I may ask, if the Hunyuan Sect does not agree to your conditions, will you take action against the Hunyuan Sect?"

After speaking, He Chong stared intently at Su Chen, his gaze sharp and unwavering.

Su Chen glanced at He Chong, then shook his head.

He Chong, displaying a relentless determination to achieve his goal, pressed on, asking, "Why?"

"I won't take action myself, but I'll wait for the Blood Blade Sect to destroy the Hunyuan Sect, and then obtain what I want directly from the Blood Blade Sect," Su Chen replied, breaking his silence.

Upon hearing this, He Chong not only did not blame Su Chen, but instead showed a relieved smile, gave Su Chen a deep look, and said nothing more.

A short while later, He Yuan came out, holding a box in his hands.

He approached Su Chen and said, "This is the key to the Hunyuan Gong technique, 20,000 taels of silver, and 20 Qi and Blood Pills. The Hunyuan Gong cultivation method and the remaining half of the money and Qi and Blood Pills will be given to you after you have safely escorted us away."

According to the conditions proposed by Su Chen, He Yuan gave him almost all of his assets. The once-prosperous Hunyuan Sect now only has these assets left, which can be said to be extremely decadent.

Although he didn't know whether He Yuan was telling the truth or not, the money and pills were enough for Su Chen. Besides, what he cared about most was the secret manual.

After receiving the manual, money, and Qi and Blood Pills, He Yuan arranged a room for Su Chen. After discussing it, both parties decided to leave Dafeng City that night. He Yuan and his son packed their things and told Su Chen to come when the time came.

After entering the room, Su Chen took out all his belongings and his gaze fell directly on the Hunyuan Gong manual. He opened the manual and began to read it carefully, becoming more and more alarmed as he read.

Although Su Chen had prepared for the Hunyuan Gong, he did not expect that this skill would be even more special than he had imagined.

After reading it, Su Chen realized that, in some ways, Hunyuan Gong was no less powerful than Huajin Gong.

At least for Su Chen, the Hunyuan Gong is definitely no weaker than the Huajin Gong!

"After cultivating Hunyuan Gong to its peak, a Hunyuan Jin will be born in the body. A Hunyuan Jin can fuse two different forces. If you want to fuse three, you need two Hunyuan Jin. And so on. As long as you have enough Hunyuan Jin, you can fuse all kinds of forces. There are almost no restrictions!"

The only drawback is that each time I restart the Hunyuan Gong, the difficulty is twice as high as before. But the problem is, this drawback is not a drawback at all for me. With the panel, as long as I have enough resources, I can restart as many times as I want!

I can even use Hunyuan Gong to integrate the internal energy without limit. In other words, I have no limit, and therefore no limit to the technique!

"Incredible! The person who created this technique is a true genius. Even more incredible is that this technique seems tailor-made for me!"

Su Chen was both surprised and delighted. He was surprised by the compatibility between this technique and him, and delighted that this technique did not disappoint him!

"Cultivation is essential!"

Without hesitation and with exceptional decisiveness, this was the first time Su Chen had shown such a strong desire to cultivate a particular technique.

After reading it, the words "Hun Yuan Gong" appeared on the panel, indicating that He Yuan had not deceived him about the key points of the technique.

But that's normal. He Yuan never imagined that there would be someone like Su Chen in the world who cultivates in an unconventional way and can succeed in cultivating without any special methods.

There's nothing we can do, he's cheating!
"Recharge 100 taels to activate easy mode!" Su Chen silently recited in his mind.

[Easy Mode Activated: Take 100 breaths to reach the beginner level of Hunyuan Gong.]

simple!
It's so simple!
Five minutes later, Su Chen had mastered the basics of Hunyuan Gong, but unfortunately, the basic level of Hunyuan Gong did not generate any internal energy.

Based on past experience, he needs to cultivate Hunyuan Gong to the first level before he can generate internal energy.

Without wasting any time, Su Chen directly issued an order to the panel: "Recharge 200 taels and restart Easy Mode."

[Easy Mode Activated: Take 200 breaths to reach the first level of Hunyuan Gong.]

A quarter of an hour later, a pure and refined energy emerged from Su Chen's flesh and blood, flowing through his limbs and bones.

It is completely independent of the five forces of Iron Shirt, showing vigorous vitality.

Under Su Chen's forceful control, the Hunyuan Force first 'captured' one of the forces, and then 'dragged' that force to connect with another force.

In this way, with the help of the Hunyuan Jin as a 'bridge', the two forces are connected and closely integrated, forming a unique and powerful force.

This unusual force is even greater than the sum of the two forces combined!

"A feeling of relief!"

Su Chen took several deep breaths, and the faint pain in his lungs instantly disappeared, replaced by a feeling of comfort.

Immediately, he freely manipulated the fused energy within his body, and a feeling of effortless control surged into his mind, without the slightest sluggishness.

It appears to be two forces connected, but in reality, there is no change at all; it is exactly the same as a single force!
This change relieved him of all worries, and he was completely at ease: "Next, recharge ten Qi and Blood Pills to activate Easy Mode!"

[Easy Mode Activated: Take 300 breaths to reach the second level of Hunyuan Gong.]

Half an hour later, a low groan rang out, and a burst of Hunyuan energy reappeared within his body.

Beginner, Beginner, First Level...

To Su Chen's surprise, the panel defined the level of Hunyuan Gong in such a way.

"In other words, each layer on the panel represents a rebuild. I have already rebuilt it twice, so I have two Hunyuan Jin."

After a moment's thought, Su Chen understood the panel's definition of the Hunyuan Gong levels and didn't care.

Feeling the extra Hunyuan energy within his body, he was delighted: "Two Hunyuan energies can be combined to form three different energies."

In that case, it would be possible to connect the four different forces in pairs, but there's no need. The combined power of the three forces would certainly be much stronger!

He quickly made a decision, manipulating the force to repeat the previous operation, fusing the three different forces together with two mixed forces, and after testing it again, there was still no sense of sluggishness.

After the three forces merged, not only did the tempering of the five internal organs accelerate, but the discomfort in the five internal organs also dissipated. The lungs no longer felt the initial oppression, and it was as if a heavy burden had been lifted.

Su Chen took a few deep breaths, and he felt better than ever before.

He has a total of five forces in his body. Now he merges three forces into one, leaving two remaining, for a total of three forces.

He only needs to raise the Hunyuan Gong by two more levels to completely fuse the five forces into one. At that time, he can use it without any worries and there will be no danger of force conflict.

"I obtained twenty Qi and Blood Pills from He Yuan, plus the eighteen I already had, making a total of thirty-eight. I've used ten so far, leaving twenty-eight. I can still use them to further enhance my Hunyuan Technique. In that case, let's use them!"

Originally, the Qi and Blood Pills were enough to raise Iron Shirt by one level, but now there are only twenty-eight left, which is not enough, so they were used to raise Hunyuan Gong.

"Recharge and activate easy mode!" Su Chen muttered to himself.

A friendly voice sounded from the panel: [Easy Mode Activated: Breathe 400 times to reach the third level of Hunyuan Gong.]

Forty-five minutes later, the third Hunyuan Force appeared. Su Chen forcefully connected the two forces, one large and one small, together.

From then on, only two forces remained in his body, but the power of the stronger force was no weaker than the five forces that had been dispersed before, and even slightly surpassed them.

As for the last burst of energy, it is the energy of the Spirit Head Technique, and I'm afraid we'll have to find an opportunity to fuse it next time!
For the rest of the time, Su Chen stayed in the room, waiting for the time to pass while testing the power of the fused energy and adapting to it.

After a period of testing, Su Chen discovered that, unlike the previous five individual forces, this fused force could completely temper the five internal organs without causing any discomfort.

Clearly, the fusion effect of Hunyuan Gong is perfect, with the four forces seemingly becoming one.

In this way, Su Chen can fully unleash the power of fusion to temper his five internal organs, making the tempering process even more efficient than before!

If previously, due to the conflict of forces, his speed of tempering his internal organs was not as fast as those martial artists who cultivated only one technique.

At this moment, in terms of quantity, his content far surpasses that of martial artists of the same level.

While others would exhaust their internal energy after one round of tempering, he only needed three or four rounds to exhaust it, making his efficiency three or four times higher!
However, it's not all good; there are still some drawbacks.

That is, the speed at which the force operates seems to have slowed down slightly because it has become 'heavy'.

Fortunately, thanks to the blessing of the Profound Origin Technique, the effects of the two canceled each other out, and the speed of the fused energy flow became almost the same as before the Profound Origin Technique was not practiced, thus restoring the normal speed.

Testing, adapting, resting, testing, adapting, resting... until the sun set, He Chong finally sent someone to find Su Chen to have dinner together.

After dinner, He Yuan dismissed the only old servant in the house, and the three of them sat in the main hall, waiting for nightfall.

Night falls.

He Yuan slowly stood up, his gaze falling on Su Chen and He Chong, and said calmly, "We can set off now!"

He Chong nodded, picked up the package, and followed behind He Yuan. Both of them traveled light, not daring to bring too much luggage.

The three walked out of the gate, where a carriage was already waiting. Su Chen and He Chong got into the carriage, and He Yuan drove it slowly toward the city gate.

Su Chen kept his eyes closed, already aware of the hidden gazes watching him, but he didn't care and remained calm.

He Chong looked worried, but seeing Su Chen's calm demeanor, he relaxed considerably.

After an incense stick had burned, the carriage drove out of the city gate.

"drive!"

He Yuan gave a soft shout and sped up, trying to shake off the people following him.

"careful!"

Suddenly, Su Chen opened his eyes. He heard a terrifying gust of wind and shouted at He Chong.

Before He Chong could react, Su Chen kicked him hard and then pinned him down.

boom!
An arrow struck like lightning, piercing the car window in an instant. At the critical moment, Su Chen suddenly reached out and grabbed it.

hum!
The arrow trembled violently, as if trying to break free from Su Chen's grasp, but was broken by Su Chen's slight exertion of force.

"Shut up!"

Just then, He Yuan, who was driving the carriage, screamed, "Get off the carriage now!"

Upon hearing this, Su Chen immediately sensed something was wrong. He grabbed He Chong, kicked off with both feet, and jumped out of the carriage through the window.

"father!"

After landing safely, He Chong saw He Yuan, who had fallen heavily, and shouted, rushing towards him.

"Again?"

Su Chen's eyes flashed as he spotted the hidden arrows shooting out from not far away. He casually broke off a branch from the roadside, gathered his strength, and threw it out.

boom!
In the brief moment that the arrow collided with the tree branch, it suddenly broke apart inch by inch and fell to the ground, landing in front of He Yuan and his son.

The two watched this scene with lingering fear. If Su Chen hadn't intervened, He Yuan would have been dead without a doubt.

"Hiding your head and showing your tail, what kind of skill is that? Get out here!!"

Su Chen let out a soft shout, his eyes flashing like lightning. He used his body as a bow, his hands as the string, and a tree branch as the arrow. The arrow shot through the air like a beam of light, bursting forth with astonishing speed.

boom!
Even from a distance of hundreds of meters, it still stirred up waves, hitting a tree and causing it to shake violently, with leaves falling in a flurry.

"What a trick!"

The person hidden in the shadows exclaimed in surprise, then revealed himself. He was dressed in a red robe and looked at Su Chen with astonishment. "No wonder the people from Hunyuan Sect dared to run away. It turns out they invited such a master."

The man in the red robe approached slowly, holding a bow and arrow. A large knife was tucked into his waistband, revealing his other identity.

"Be careful, this person is the deputy sect leader of the Blood Blade Sect!" Upon seeing this person, He Yuan warned him, without showing much worry on his face.

This person's cultivation level is similar to his, both having achieved minor success in internal organ cultivation, but his strength is greater than his. However, compared to Su Chen, he is probably a step behind. As long as he is careful, he may be able to escape.

"Sir, why make an enemy of our Blood Blade Sect for the sake of the Hunyuan Sect? He Yuan has given you so much benefit, and our Blood Blade Sect will repay you double!" The Blood Blade Sect's deputy sect leader said calmly.

Upon hearing this, He Yuan and He Chong's expressions changed slightly, and they couldn't help but look at Su Chen.

Su Chen fell into deep thought, seemingly considering the feasibility of the matter, a scene that made both of them anxious.

"Give me fifty Qi and Blood Pills first, and then I'll consider your terms," ​​Su Chen said seriously.

Upon hearing this, the Blood Blade Sect's deputy sect leader narrowed his eyes, then chuckled, "Why do you insist on seeking your own death by helping the Hunyuan Sect? What a pity!"

He paused, then his expression suddenly turned fierce: "Then I'll have no choice but to kill you as well."

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of men dressed in red robes emerged from the bushes on both sides, wielding weapons, and surrounded Su Chen and his companions.

“Mr. Lu, leave these people to us!” He Yuan said in a deep voice, his eyes flashing.

Su Chen didn't speak, but nodded and looked directly at the Blood Blade Sect's vice sect leader.

"kill!"

The deputy sect leader of the Blood Blade Sect waved his hand and uttered a single word. The crowd swarmed forward and slaughtered He Yuan and his son.

Su Chen, who was also surrounded, seemed to be deliberately ignored by the Blood Blade Sect members. The next moment, the Blood Blade Sect's vice sect leader, who had been motionless, suddenly rushed up, drew his sword and slashed, his movements revealing his killing intent.

"Blood Shadow Three Blades!"

He uttered a soft murmur, a cold smile playing on his lips. The sharp blade surged up and down, instantly blocking all of Su Chen's escape routes.

Seeing this, Su Chen slowly extended his palm, which was as hard as iron and indestructible. It collided with the long sword, and a sound of metal clashing resounded.

"Ok?"

Upon seeing this, the deputy sect leader of the Blood Blade Sect was suddenly stunned. He had not expected that Su Chen's palm could withstand his sharp longsword.

However, the surprise was only momentary before the person quickly realized that it was simply because the palm was hard; other parts of the hand might not be like that.

Suddenly, his movements changed, and a dazzling array of sword shadows formed a storm that instantly enveloped Su Chen, as if he were in a world of flashing blades.

Su Chen remained calm as he caught a glimpse of cold light amidst the endless shadows of blades. Then, he suddenly drew his sword, a strike as swift as thunder, carrying immense force, and slashed down like a mountain!
"what?"

Upon being discovered, the deputy sect leader of the Blood Blade Sect exclaimed in surprise; that flash of blade light would forever amaze him.

Those horrified eyes watched as the blade flashed down, and with a crack, bones shattered and a head flew off.

"Vice Sect Master!"

The Blood Blade Sect disciples who were besieging He Yuan were horrified and screamed when they saw the beheaded Blood Blade Sect Vice Sect Master.

"Kill him! Avenge the Vice Sect Master!"

Upon seeing the Blood Blade Sect's deputy sect leader killed, a surge of anger welled up in everyone's hearts. At the roar of one disciple, the Blood Blade Sect disciples charged towards Su Chen fearlessly.

"drive!"

On the other side, seeing that the situation was not good, He Yuan and He Chong mounted their horses and left behind the words, "Mr. Lu, we'll be waiting for you up ahead!"

Su Chen narrowed his eyes, watching He Yuan and the other person's departing figures, a strange look flashing in his eyes.

"kill!"

Just then, Blood Blade Sect disciples attacked. Su Chen withdrew his gaze, and the steel blade in his hand transformed into a merciless reaper of lives. With a few swings, he easily killed the Blood Blade Sect disciples.

In less than a quarter of an hour, he had killed most of the Blood Blade Sect disciples.

The remaining Blood Blade Sect disciples, witnessing their companions die one by one under Su Chen's blade, finally lost their impulsiveness, and a deep sense of fear crept onto their faces.

"run!"

One of the Blood Blade Sect disciples spoke up, and the others immediately scattered as if they had found their leader.

however--

"what……"

At this point, how could Su Chen possibly let them leave? In a few swift moves, he slaughtered all the remaining Blood Blade Sect disciples.

Corpses littered the ground, a scene of vibrant red, yet one figure, with each rise and fall, gradually bulged his purse.

"drive!"

Horses galloped and weaved along the narrow forest path, moving with lightning speed.

He Yuan looked anxious, glancing back every now and then, his heart filled with trepidation, but even more so with the joy of surviving a disaster.

No one expected Su Chen to be so strong, killing the Blood Blade Sect's vice sect leader so easily.

They initially thought this was a doomed affair, but now it seems that with Su Chen holding off the Blood Blade Sect members, it's only a matter of time before they escape.

"Dad, we've made a mistake, we've gone the wrong way!" He Chong's urgent voice rang out as he loudly reminded him.

However, He Yuan ignored He Chong and pushed off with both feet, increasing his speed.

He Chong witnessed this and his expression changed drastically; this was not the route they had agreed upon with Su Chen at all.

Even if He Chong was slow to react, he realized He Yuan's intentions after this last-minute change of route; clearly, He Yuan was not planning to complete the next transaction with Su Chen.

"Father, stop!" He Chong shouted again, reaching out as if to grab the reins.

"Whoa!" Upon seeing this, He Yuan instinctively pulled back the reins, and with a neigh from the spirited horse, the speed gradually slowed down.

After stopping, He Yuan's face darkened, and his voice, filled with anger, rang out: "What do you want to do?"

He Chong said, "Father, we can't just leave like this!"

"What do you know?!" He Yuan thought it was something important, but it turned out to be just this?

Hearing this, he became furious and said in a deep voice, "At a time like this, why bother with Lu Xiaofeng? Escaping is the priority. We can talk about the rest later!"

Having said that, he prepared to ride his horse again.

However, He Chong stopped He Yuan's actions and shook his head, saying, "Father, I don't understand, but I know that Mr. Lu made an enemy of the Blood Blade Sect to cover our departure. If we betray our promise, how are we any different from those beasts in the Blood Blade Sect?"

Upon hearing this, He Yuan stared blankly at He Chong, meeting his gaze as if he saw his own naive self from years ago deep in He Chong's eyes.

He didn't speak, and He Chong continued, "Since we have agreed on a route with Mr. Lu, it is both reasonable and logical for us to follow the established route and then meet up with Mr. Lu."

If we just leave like this, even if we escape this time, my child will feel guilty in the future.

Have you forgotten? Both you and Mother taught me not to break my promises. A person can live a life without seeking wealth or power, but one cannot abandon one's conscience, for once lost, it can never be regained.

As he spoke, he looked intently at He Yuan and said earnestly, "Father, let's go back. With Mr. Lu here, I believe we won't die."

After hearing He Chong's words, which were like a wake-up call, He Yuan's expression softened, and he sighed, "You're right. I acted rashly and lost my sense of proportion. It's just a few taels of silver. We wouldn't stoop to such a low price for money. Let's go back now."

"Yes!" He Chong nodded emphatically, a slight smile finally appearing on his tense face.

clap clap clap!
Just as the two turned around to return and meet Su Chen, a crisp clapping sound suddenly rang out in the quiet forest, followed by an all-pervasive voice: "What a touching scene! It makes me feel bad about killing you two."

"Who?" He Yuan's heart tightened, and he looked around warily.

He hadn't even been able to pinpoint the other person's location, which made his expression turn serious.

"No need to look for it, I'm here!"

As soon as the words were spoken, a figure dressed in a red robe slowly emerged from the darkness, his movements elegant and his steps light.

This man was tall and slender, with a precious sword wrapped around his waist. He had a youthful face and white hair, and exuded a faint aura of someone who had long held a high position.

"The Blood Blade Sect Master!" Looking at the person before him, He Yuan said each word clearly, his voice filled with undisguised horror.

The Blood Blade Sect Master nodded slightly: "Hehe, I had long heard that the Hunyuan Sect Master was an ordinary person, but now it seems that the rumors are somewhat untrue. Anyone who can recognize me at a glance must not be an ordinary person!"

Upon hearing this, He Yuan felt bitter: "To deal with the Hunyuan Sect, even the Blood Blade Sect Master has personally taken action. What merit do I, He Yuan, have to deserve this!"

Despair filled his voice as he faced a dead end. Just when things were about to clear up and the sun would shine again, dark clouds gathered, lightning flashed, and thunder roared, as if it were the end of the world.

With his strength, he might have a sliver of hope if he fought the deputy sect leader of the Blood Blade Sect, but fighting the sect leader would be like throwing an egg against a rock, or a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

"Chong'er, I'll stop him later, and you take the opportunity to escape!" He Yuan said in a low voice, with a resolute air.

He Chong naturally understood He Yuan's meaning, and he said, "Father, I..."

"Shut up, just do as I say!"

He Yuan gave a light shout, then stepped into the stirrups, leaped into the air, and attacked the Blood Blade Sect Master.

Upon seeing this, the Blood Blade Sect Master curled his lips into a mocking smile: "Hmph, overestimating yourself!"

"go!"

He Yuan shouted, his voice filled with urgency.

"drive!"

He Chong gripped the reins, gritted his teeth, and channeled all his grief and anger into his strength. With a stomp of his feet, the horse was startled and galloped away.

"You think you can leave without my permission?"

Upon seeing this, the Blood Blade Sect Master's expression hardened, a faint threatening aura emanating from his eyes. Then, his arm flashed out in a blur, and the precious sword lightly grazed its sheath, emerging like a bolt of lightning.

"not good!"

As He Yuan traversed the air, he felt a biting chill. His mind trembled, and his body suddenly froze. He forcibly changed his position and, with a surge of energy, dodged the attack.

"what?"

The next moment, before He Yuan could even regain his footing after landing, he saw a blurry figure flash past him at an astonishing speed. In the blink of an eye, it pierced through layers of void and pierced the horse's back like an arrow, causing the spirited horse to let out a miserable cry and lose its composure in a panic.

Sitting on the horse, He Chong found himself unable to tame and control the raging steed. Shaking violently, he had no choice but to dismount.

Bang!
The wild horse struggled for a long time, blood flowing down the branches and splattering all around. Then it could no longer hold on, staggered and fell, panting heavily, barely clinging to life.

"Damn it!"

Upon seeing this, He Yuan cursed inwardly. Without a horse, He Chong had no chance to escape.

"You still dare to be distracted at a time like this? You have no idea what your situation is, and you don't take me seriously at all!"

Suddenly, a cold voice rang out, and He Yuan's heart trembled, his body stiffened, and the hairs on his body stood on end.

He turned around abruptly, and a strong sense of death instantly enveloped his entire body. That blade of light pierced through the sky, as if splitting heaven and earth in two.

Once he falls, he will surely die!
boom!
Just then, out of the corner of his eye, He Yuan seemed to see another dazzling light shooting out rapidly from the side.

Their target was none other than the leader of the Blood Blade Sect!
hum!
The Blood Blade Sect Master paused, flipped his hand, and held the blade horizontally in front of his chest. A piercing sound rang out as the blade and tip collided violently, the booming sound echoing in all directions.

Dengdengdeng.

Caught off guard, the Blood Blade Sect Master staggered back several steps, his hand gripping the hilt of the blade trembling along with the blade itself.

Clang.

The steel blade, its attack blocked, became powerless and fell to the ground, but it still hummed and swayed close to the ground.

The Blood Blade Sect Master stared grimly at the sudden steel blade, his arm trembling as the precious sword was forcefully stopped with a hum.

However, at that moment, a hissing sound suddenly rang out, and a piece of the originally smooth and sharp sword fell out from the middle.

Immediately, as if a fuse had been lit, cracks spread rapidly from the point, like a spider web, across the entire blade. With a loud bang, the precious sword shattered and broke into pieces on the ground.

"who are you?"

The Blood Blade Sect Master noticed Su Chen appearing ahead, fixed his gaze on him, and asked coldly.

Still shaken, He Yuan looked in the direction of the sound and froze on the spot for a moment, but then his face lit up with surprise.

Su Chen remained silent, approaching the two step by step. Upon seeing this, the Blood Blade Sect Master's pupils constricted slightly, then his face twisted into a ferocious grin as he said, "I'm asking you a question!"

After speaking, he stomped his foot hard, and the steel knife on the ground was sprang up with tremendous force. He reached out and grabbed it, and then his body shot out like a cannonball. In a few breaths, he leaped in front of Su Chen.

stab.

Layer upon layer of sword shadows swept in all directions, locking Su Chen's surroundings like rays of light.

Su Chen dodged quickly, but the Blood Blade Sect Master's attacks became increasingly fierce.

Every move is deadly; there is no mercy shown!
As Su Chen dodged, his expression gradually became serious. The Blood Blade Sect Master's blade was actually several degrees faster than his own.

"Hide, hide, hide! How much longer can you fucking hide?!"

The Blood Blade Sect Master sneered, clearly seeing Su Chen's weakness. He pressed his advantage, his cold gaze fixed on Su Chen as he pressed closer.

"Blood Shadow Mad Blade!"

He roared, his speed increasing even more than before. The chaotic sword shadows swept in like an impenetrable net, and the surrounding air whistled.

"Sword Drawing Technique!"

Su Chen's face tightened. Forced into a corner, his sleeves billowed, and in a flash, a blade of light suddenly appeared in the eyes of the Blood Blade Sect Master.

He didn't have time to think about why a knife suddenly appeared from Su Chen's arm. After a moment of panic, he calmed down, withdrew, and tried to dodge Su Chen's attack.

"what?"

Unfortunately, although Su Chen's strike was forced out, it was still incredibly fast. The moment he drew his sword, he displayed an unstoppable momentum, bringing speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness to the extreme.

Faced with such a move, even the experienced and composed leader of the Blood Blade Sect could not dodge it immediately. As the cold light flashed, his clothes were instantly stained with a blood-red color.

As Su Chen's knife sliced ​​through his clothes, a few drops of bright, crimson blood clung to the blade, eventually dripping slowly.

The injured Blood Blade Sect Master looked down at his body. Although the injury was not serious, it was extremely humiliating, which darkened his face.

With murderous eyes fixed on Su Chen, the Blood Blade Sect Master laughed in fury: "What a fine technique! It's a pity you couldn't kill me. I'm not dead yet, but you're next!"

Before he finished speaking, the enraged Blood Blade Sect Master unleashed a berserk rage, pouring out his boundless fury through his attacks, a tidal wave of attacks sweeping across the land.

Su Chen showed no fear, gripping his short sword and charging forward. In an instant, the sword shadows blurred, light and shadow intertwined, and the sound of clashing echoed.

Dust flew everywhere, rocks flew, trees swayed without wind, and leaves fluttered down, creating a chaotic scene.

In the end, He Yuan could no longer see the two fighting, only hearing heavy sounds continuously.

Centered on the two, a halo of light formed, and chaotic bursts of energy shot out, leaving the surrounding ten-meter space in a mess.

In terms of swordsmanship, the Blood Blade Sect Master clearly had the upper hand, but in terms of the clash of force, Su Chen had a slight advantage.

In an instant, the two fought fiercely, their skill seemingly evenly matched.

Su Chen hadn't had such a satisfying fight in a long time, and he unleashed almost all of his skills.

In particular, the Blood Blade Sect Master's lightning-fast swordsmanship and his unpredictable and elusive strength gave him a completely new experience, making him unable to stop and attacking with even more relentless effort.

The Blood Blade Sect Master grew increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed. Su Chen's reckless display of power made his eyelids twitch and his scalp tingle. If it weren't for his own superb swordsmanship, he probably wouldn't have lasted long before being overwhelmed by the opponent's wave of power.

Even so, as time went by, a faint sense of powerlessness rose in his heart. If this continued, he would eventually be tortured to death by the opponent's strength.

Faced with the extremely aggressive Su Chen, he who had just been confident of victory suddenly felt the urge to retreat. He then feigned an attack and actually withdrew, withdrawing from the intense battle.

"Where to go!"

Su Chen was not about to let go of such an evenly matched opponent. With his sleeves fluttering, he swooped down and intercepted the Blood Blade Sect Master in the blink of an eye.

"madman!"

The Blood Blade Sect Master cursed under his breath, having no intention of continuing to confront Su Chen head-on. Meeting such a madman was truly bad luck!

puff!
Suddenly, the Blood Blade Sect Master, who was desperately trying to block Su Chen's reckless sword moves, suddenly felt his strength falter. It was as if his energy was being forcibly drained away. Although it only lasted for a moment, it terrified him.

"The knife is poisoned!"

The Blood Blade Sect Master stared at Su Chen in horror, both shocked and furious. He wished he could crack open Su Chen's head to see what was inside, since it was full of poisonous schemes and tricks!

"No, my knife is also poisoned, so why is he unharmed?" Suddenly, he seemed to remember something and looked puzzled.

Su Chen seemed to have guessed what the other party was thinking, so he sneered, "Idiot, of course it's because your poison is too weak and has no effect on me!"

"you……"

The Blood Blade Sect Master was furious, but what awaited him was Su Chen's overwhelming sword strike.

With a single slash, a fierce wind raged, seemingly forming a closed space around them, in which only two figures stood.

boom!
Soon, one of the figures collapsed to the ground, blood gushing from his neck.

laugh!
Su Chen slowly sheathed his sword, then turned around, and a chilling gaze suddenly fell on He Yuan, making him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar!
