Stepping on the demon door, the witch becomes the strongest.

Chapter 510: Teaching the Witch a Lesson
The puppets in the town have finally been almost cleared out.

But the closer it got to the end, the more vigilant the Zhenhai team became, because the secret realm goalkeeper had not been discovered yet.

It is impossible for the secret realm to have no goalkeeper, because that means that there is no one guarding the center, which is like the door of a bank vault being wide open, which is obviously unreasonable.

Who knows where he's hiding, waiting to harm someone!
Yan Yu called Lin Ning, who was proficient in the Fenyun Bagua Step, and ordered:

"Go and search every house to make sure there are no enemies hiding."

"Okay." Lin Ning shook her feet, performed some footwork, and disappeared in an instant.

"Do you think the goalkeeper might be hiding in the house?" Chen Lingyun asked in a voice transmission.

"Who knows?" Yan Yu said, "It's most likely not outside. There aren't any large trees around to hide in."

In his previous life, he did not get much information about the secret realm of Wuyi Mountain. It was not surprising if he thought about it carefully: since it was the alchemy base of Lu State, the fewer people who knew about it, the better.

"There is another place." Chen Lingyun said suddenly.

"Tell me in detail." Yan Yu said.

"For example?" Chen Lingyun pointed at Zhao Yuanzhen who was running to lure the enemy.

This was said without any beginning or end, but Yan Yu and her had a tacit understanding and immediately understood:

"You mean, hiding among the puppets, pretending that you're not the boss, but just a small fry?"

"Hmm." Chen Lingyun was very happy with the way the two communicated. Her eyebrows and eyes were curved like crescent moons, and she looked extremely sweet and cute.

Yan Yu ignored her charm and pondered.

If the goalkeeper is also a sword-controlling puppet, mixed in with its own kind without any intelligence, waiting to suddenly attack, then its concealment and lethality will be too great - ordinary puppets have no intelligence, so they can be lured, controlled and annihilated with a set of unchanging methods, but if you try to use this set of tactics on the goalkeeper without knowing it, you will definitely suffer a great loss.

Well, isn’t the Demon Sect witch very arrogant recently?
Then I won’t remind her, and let her suffer the loss in silence as a lesson.

Yan Yu took out the Liangyi Sword and pretended to play with it, but in fact he was ready to fly with the sword at any time to support Zhao Yuanzhen and Lin Ning who might be in crisis.

Lin Ning's steps were extremely flexible, just like the Lingbo Weibu in TV dramas. She entered a house in a flash and appeared again in a flash. It was almost impossible to see her move her legs.

Zhao Yuanzhen was even more courageous. After all, he had recovered his full strength. When he encountered one or two lone puppets, he was too lazy to lead them back. He just threw out the Bone Heart Locking Hammer and smashed them to pieces.

Yan Yu didn't say anything, but she was also very proud of herself, thinking to herself, why did Ruoxi have to take action? My hammer can also deal with them all.

I, Fairy Mizhen, am invincible in the world!

Seeing another puppet standing alone in the distance, the demon woman summoned up her remaining courage, raised the Bone Heart-Locking Hammer, and rushed towards the puppet.

Unexpectedly, the puppet suddenly flew up with a flying sword, cut the Bone Heart Locking Hammer horizontally, and repelled it, then turned around and attacked the witch again.

Zhao Yuanzhen was naturally not afraid, and quickly raised the Yinfeng Sword to resist.

The puppet flying sword used a move called "A Phoenix Arrives" to fight against the Yinfeng Sword. It rebounded to stabilize the sword body and then used a move called "A Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix". The sword body drifted diagonally downward, just brushing past the Yinfeng Sword that wanted to attack, and directly skipped the sword attack and defense and killed Zhao Yuanzhen behind.

Zhao Yuanzhen had a strong sense of combat and instantly realized that the sword fight between the two sides was closer to the puppet. Therefore, he did not use his sword to return to defend, but just used all his strength to drive the Yinfeng Sword to kill the puppet.

As long as I kill you first, even if your flying sword is close to you, it will lose control and fall to the ground in the next second!
Just as he was thinking this, he saw the puppet suddenly fly up high as if being pulled by a string, avoiding the flying sword. Zhao Yuanzhen was almost so angry that he vomited blood. He quickly threw out the Bone Heart Locking Hammer, trying to stop the opponent's flying sword, and turned around to retreat quickly using the magic of speed.

The Bone Heart-Locking Hammer roared towards them. The puppet sword used the White Crane Spreads Wings move, a downward slash to try to circumvent it, but the hammer's magical weapon had a tracking function and immediately followed it in its downward slash. However, the flying sword then followed suit with the Welcoming Pines move, instantly switching from a downward thrust to an upward thrust, just in time to avoid the Bone Heart-Locking Hammer's interception and continuing its attack on Zhao Yuanzhen, who was trying to retreat, with surprisingly no lag in its speed.

This change of tactics immediately caught Yan Yu's attention, and he exclaimed.

"Aren't you going to rescue Sister Zhao?" Su Yunjin came over and asked, "Captain, what's wrong?"

"A counterattack on Chong Tianzi," Yan Yu exclaimed in amazement. "Look, White Crane Spreads Its Wings strikes downward horizontally, but before it strikes, it immediately changes its move, catching Cang Song Welcoming Guests with an upward thrust. The sword path forms a V shape, cleverly bypassing the oncoming interception... Yun Jin, if it were you, could you use this move?"

"I can't use it." Su Yunjin has been practicing swordsmanship with Lin Ning for a long time, and now he is not a novice in sword-wielding. He just thought about it for a moment and immediately shook his head.

White Crane Spreads Wings is a ground-level slash, while Pine Welcoming Guests is similar to an upward slash. If you slash and then slash, it's too late, but how can you change the move at the last minute? It feels weird.

"So what about the puppet?" Chen Lingyun also became interested and asked curiously.

"The answer is that the White Crane Spreading Wings performed by this puppet is different from the White Crane Spreading Wings in our textbooks." Yan Yu laughed, "This is some kind of brand new swordsmanship that we have never seen before."

The girls were immediately surprised.

Swordsmanship is the process of linking various sword moves together to form a systematic fighting style. Take, for example, an ordinary longsword, with its limited number of movements like horizontal slashes, downward slashes, and upward thrusts. In the hands of an ordinary person, it's just a showpiece, but in Feng Qingyang's hands, it becomes the Dugu Nine Swords. This is because the latter's sword moves are linked together, and the offensive and defensive variations each have unique meaning, making them difficult to counter.

Lin Ning was practicing the "General Outline of Kunlun Sword Control". This set of sword techniques was moderate and peaceful, with both offensive and defensive capabilities, and it was far superior to the textbook version of sword control in all aspects. However, its drawback was that it required too much of the sword master himself. If he did not set aside a large amount of time every day to lay a solid foundation, it would be impossible to master it well.

This characteristic determines that only Ningning can practice this sword technique in the team, and no one else has the time or energy to invest in it.

As for the unfamiliar swordsmanship displayed by the puppet, Yan Yu found it not fast enough but flexible enough. It emphasized complex changes and catching the enemy off guard. Therefore, it did not require a high level of basic skills from a swordsman, but instead placed more emphasis on the conscious judgment of the swordsman - wasn't this tailor-made for Yun Jin and Ling Yun, two smart girls?

As for Ruoxi and Yuanzhen, because they are too simple in nature, they are naturally not suitable to learn this set of swordsmanship.

As Yan Yu continued to watch the puppet chase the witch, he became more and more certain that the sect that created this sword technique was definitely not a sect where professional sword users and sword masters gathered.

The art of swordsmanship itself places too much emphasis on "using the surprising to defeat the normal". It's obvious that I know I can't defeat you head-on, so I have to keep using tricks, betting on the surprise attack!

Zhao Yuanzhen had no idea what Yan Yu was thinking, and he just fought with all his might.

Her rough and tumble style, which relied heavily on three axe attacks to gain the upper hand, was most afraid of this kind of swordplay that favored variations. A single sword move from the opponent might conceal four or five subsequent moves, and she couldn't even discern a single change. Naturally, she was overwhelmed by the puppet's endless tricks, leaving her sweating profusely. Finally, she couldn't help but scream:

"Ruoxi, help me!"

Xie Ruoxi said "oh" and was about to step forward, but Yan Yu stopped her.

"No rush." He said with a smile, "Let Sister Zhao continue to carry it for a while."

The Immortal Venerable's thunder technique was too sharp. What if the puppet had hidden the sword secrets in its body, just like the Qing Yuan Qi before, and was blown to pieces by a thunder technique? Then the Zhenhai team would suffer a great loss this time.

While Zhao Yuanzhen was catching his breath, he quickly looked behind him and saw Yan Yu stopping Xie Ruoxi. He immediately became furious and secretly held a grudge in his heart:

This little thief deliberately blocked the entire team's support to make me look bad. This is a huge hatred! If I get the chance in the future, I will repay him a hundredfold!
Thinking of this, another picture appeared in her mind, which was her own various oppressions on her husband after marriage. The little thief felt weak all over and could only cry out:
"Ningning, help me! Ruoxi, help me! Yunjin, help me! Lingyun, help me!"

I shouted:
"No! No! When I attacked that puppet, you wouldn't let them help me. I won't let them help you tonight either!"

Thinking of this, Zhao Yuanzhen suddenly felt his energy flow smoothly and he had the strength to dodge. Finally, he fought and ran until the Yinfeng Sword flew back to him. He quickly controlled the sword to defend closely with all his strength to prevent the puppet flying sword from bypassing his defense again.
