Huangxiu

Chapter 867 Weakness
Chu Zhiyuan frowned.

There is only one way to protect yourself from this kind of attack: use the force of thunder and lightning to solve it in one move.

If you can't solve it, just turn around and leave. There's no need to bother about it any further.

If you are unwilling to give in and continue to pester the opponent, the opponent's defense will only become stronger.

By that time, the host and the guest will be reversed, and you will be the only one who is unlucky.

He suddenly changed his fist into a palm and lightly slapped out with a Heavenly Dragon Palm.

Cheng Yunzheng's face changed slightly, as if facing a powerful enemy. The sword light suddenly condensed into a point and pierced straight into Chu Zhiyuan's palm.

Chu Zhiyuan did not dodge or evade.

"boom!"

When the tip of the sword was one foot apart from the palm, their forward momentum stopped and then separated.

Chu Zhiyuan stood where he was.

Cheng Yunzheng flew out, flying more than ten meters in the air. After landing, he staggered two steps before standing firm.

The super sense is always shining in the cave.

He clearly saw that the power of the Heavenly Dragon Palm failed to break Cheng Yunzheng's defense.

The originally extremely penetrating palm force, when it fell on the invisible force on his body, was like an arrow shot into the lake.

No matter how fast or sharp it is, it still cannot penetrate the lake and reach the bottom of the lake.

After Cheng Yunzheng staggered to his feet, he suddenly chuckled.

Chu Zhiyuan looked at him calmly.

Cheng Yunzheng laughed and said, "Do you still think I am the same person as before? Can I be defeated so easily?"

Chu Zhiyuan appeared in front of Cheng Yunzheng so quickly that he didn't have time to react.

Several streams of light flew out from the sleeves.

It instantly hit Cheng Yunzheng between the eyebrows.

The two men were almost sticking together, and at this distance, eight flying knives fell on his forehead at the same time.

"Bang bang bang bang..."

Amidst the muffled sound, Cheng Yunzheng retreated repeatedly.

The invisible force blocked the flying knife, blocking the powerful force contained in the flying knife.

With super sense, he saw that the invisible air shield was rotating at high speed, spreading and transferring the powerful force contained in the flying knife and adding it to the flowing breath.

Under the influence of the powerful force, this invisible gas shield gradually revealed its shape.

It seemed as if the aura formed by four dragons was spinning around him at high speed.

The power contained in the flying knife was caught by the four dragons and transformed into their own power. The aura became stronger and the four dragons became clearer.

"Chi chi chi chi..."

The eight flying knives that were already suspended in the air shot towards his forehead again.

He wanted to dodge but couldn't, so he could only be shot continuously and retreat again and again.

The flying knife is only the size of a finger and as light as a leaf, but the power contained in the knife is not only true energy, but also powerful force.

His protective magic treasure absorbed and transformed the true energy, but he had to dissipate the pure force by retreating.

As he stepped back, there was a strange smile on his face, and he even laughed out loud.

Chu Zhiyuan's face was solemn.

The eight flying knives hovered in the air and no longer shot down.

There is really no way to break his defense this way.

Lingbao is worthy of being called Lingbao.

With his current strength, even if the flying knife was powerful under the blessing of a strong soul, it still could not break Cheng Yunzheng's defense.

"Haha..." Cheng Yunzheng laughed: "Chu Liezhao, how about it?"

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

Cheng Yunzheng laughed and said, "Despair, huh? It's useless no matter how hard you fight, haha..."

"The villain is successful." Chu Zhiyuan said indifferently.

Cheng Yunzheng laughed and said, "I am a villain, so what? What can you do to me?"

"Do you really think you are invincible?" Chu Zhiyuan said coldly.

Cheng Yunzheng said: "The only one who can kill me in this world is Ling Zun!"

He smiled proudly: "No one else can kill me!"

Chu Zhiyuan said: "It must be very consuming to activate your spiritual treasure, right?" As far as he knew, spiritual treasures require consumption to operate, and what is consumed is not true essence.

His three spiritual treasures all absorbed Ling Yuan's power. He wondered what kind of power Cheng Yunzheng's spiritual treasure absorbed.

If there is no Lingyuan's power, then other higher-level powers will be needed, such as mental power, cultivation, and lifespan.

Under the super sense, he did not feel that Cheng Yunzheng's spirit was exhausted, nor did he feel that his cultivation level had decreased. Was that his lifespan?
Cheng Yunzheng sneered: "Consumption? Your strength can sustain its consumption!"

"That's impossible," Chu Zhiyuan shook his head, "Could it be that his life span is being consumed?"

Its own strength cannot fully sustain the consumption of the spiritual treasure. It is very disdainful of true essence and is too lazy to absorb it.

Even if it is absorbed, due to the low level of true essence, it is far from enough to sustain its consumption.

Cheng Yunzheng sneered: "Ridiculous!"

Chu Zhiyuan said: "That's life span. Interesting. Is this to save lives or to kill them?"

"Chu Liezhao, you are just daydreaming. Okay, then let's see if you can consume my lifespan!"

"Sure enough, I was right." Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: "This is probably your biggest secret."

After he said that, the flying knife descended again.

"court death!"

Cheng Yunzheng swung his sword to block the flying knife and rushed towards Chu Zhiyuan.

He would never accept being on the defensive.

The Nine Dragon Cover does consume strength, and it does also consume lifespan.

But compared to having your defenses breached, losing a little life is nothing.

Unexpectedly, this secret which had been hidden till now was known by Chu Liezhao.

Why did Chu Liezhao know?
You should know that spiritual treasures are rare things in the world and there are only a few of them.

As far as I know, apart from the Wentian Pavilion, Fengtian Palace and the Imperial Observatory, the rest are only owned by the top sects of each dynasty.

Chu Liezhao was only the ninth prince, and even if he was the twelfth prince consort, it was impossible for him to have a magical treasure.

How could he know this secret when he has never even seen a spiritual treasure?
The flying knives kept attacking his forehead.

The powerful force of the knife continued to destroy his body movements, greatly reducing the power of his sword and making it impossible for him to touch Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan stood with his hands behind his back and said calmly, "If we continue to fight like this, will you die from your own treasure?"

Cheng Yunzheng sneered as he brandished his sword: "You think too highly of yourself!"

Chu Zhiyuan said: "You can only defend yourself. If you don't use swordsmanship, you can only take the beating."

Cheng Yunzheng was extremely angry.

A deep sense of powerlessness arose in his heart.

In front of Chu Zhiyuan, he seemed extremely clumsy and could only be beaten but could not hit him.

This feeling is really unpleasant.

Even if you can defend yourself, you can't eliminate this feeling of powerlessness.

"Brother, you go first." A soft voice came from the car.

Cheng Yunzheng was stunned.

Chu Zhiyuan turned his head to look at the carriage and chuckled, "Thirteenth Prince, that's a good idea."

Cheng Yunzheng had to keep charging forward until he reached the Phoenix Imperial City, and then he would have to stop attacking.

We can't attack the Yuanzhen envoys in front of the court, that would be too disrespectful to the Phoenix court.

Cheng Yunzheng gritted his teeth and said, "Then I'll go!"

He turned and ran. Even the continuous attacks of flying knives could not interrupt his momentum.

The flying knife attack could only slow him down, but it couldn't stop him.

Chu Zhiyuan stood there with his hands behind his back, but the flying knife kept chasing him.

The carriage was pushed open, and two pretty maids got off. A gorgeous lady in gorgeous clothes came down with their help.
She was not as pretty as Li Miaotan or Xiao Ruoling, but she was so beautiful and charming, and her radiance was so dazzling that it was impossible to look directly at her.

She has a straight nose, big eyes that sparkle and look bright and lively.

She bowed and chuckled, "The Ninth Prince is worthy of his reputation."

Chu Zhiyuan clasped his fists and said, "I'll take my leave first."

After that, he didn't give her any chance to speak, and left slowly, disappearing from her sight in the blink of an eye.

This Thirteenth Princess is not a good person at all. It is hard to tell whether it is a blessing or a curse for the Third Prince to marry her.

Just saying hello was considered giving face to the Third Prince, and it was not appropriate to say more, so as not to cause gossip and create resentment with the Third Prince.
