Nine-layer armor-breaking

Chapter 21: Another Battle
Memories of the past flashed through Jiang Xuan's mind, sometimes quickly and sometimes slowly: his father Jiang Yuan, his mother Lou Xingman, his sister Jiang Xian, and Li Qizhi, the Jiang Mansion's housekeeper who was like an uncle to him...

At this moment, Jiang Xuan felt numbness spreading from his shoulders and arms to his entire body.

"This poison is not very strong." Jiang Xuan thought secretly. Although his body was gradually becoming numb, it was not difficult to find that the poison on the dart was obviously not the kind of strong poison that could kill people quickly. Otherwise, Jiang Xuan would have lost consciousness and gone to see the ancestors of the Jiang family.

This poison is more like an anesthetic that can paralyze the body, thereby gradually restricting the warrior's ability to move until the warrior loses his ability to fight.

Although this poison will cause considerable pain to the victim, at least for warriors like Jiang Xuan and Fatty who have reached the Heavenly Rank, this pain is not fatal and does not have a very big impact on the battle.

However, for warriors in combat, the paralyzing effect of this type of anesthetic is indeed very terrifying.

If the body is paralyzed by this type of poison during battle, the warrior will become a lamb to be slaughtered, and his life and death will be in the hands of the opponent!

Some warriors with combat experience, or warriors with a broader vision, when they reach Jiang Xuan's level, what they have to consider is how to end their lives as quickly as possible.

However, these things were not within Jiang Xuan's consideration.

At this moment, several images kept appearing in his mind over and over again, and what he needed most now was time.

He needs to drag his numb body and fight the fat man for at least two more rounds!

Before the numbness reached his feet, Jiang Xuan stood up shakily and supported the spear with his numb right hand.

When the fat man saw Jiang Xuan's actions, he knew that the poison had shown signs of taking effect, as if the person standing in front of him was not a heavenly-level warrior, but a wounded prey waiting to be slaughtered.

"It is indeed poison." The fat man took a quick look at Jiang Xuan's condition and showed some relief.

The poison on the diamond dart was the only poison he had found among the apothecary's belongings.

Although the poison was coated on the dart, it was a poison that the fat man had never heard of, and he was still unsure about it.

Although the fat man's strength has reached the peak of the Heavenly Rank after taking the Blood Profit Pill, it is still not safe enough to face Jiang Xuan if he cannot guarantee that the poison will take effect.

Now that the poison that Jiang Xuan was infected with has taken effect, the fat man can finally feel relieved. Next, he can easily take Jiang Xuan's life according to his plan.

After feeling his numb body for a moment, Jiang Xuan prepared to launch his first attack.

However, at this moment, perhaps due to the paralyzing effect of the poison, he found that the pain caused by the impact on his chest was replaced by the pain caused by the poison.

Although it is the same pain, Jiang Xuan, who has experienced both kinds of pain one after another, knows very well that the two are not the same.

Strangely, the pain caused by the poison was gradually replaced by numbness.

Jiang Xuan then realized that the pain in his body had almost disappeared, and was replaced by numbness all over his body!
He couldn't help but sigh at the strong paralyzing effect of the poison.

Jiang Xuan twisted his body and stepped on the ground. Suddenly, he felt a soft sensation coming from the soles of his feet. At the same time, he had jumped into the air.

With the strength of Jiang Xuan's waist and wrist, the silver spear swept towards the fat man with a rapid rotation.

This attack was very similar to the first move of Jiang Xuan's Suiyuan Spear Technique. The difference was that the spear's rotation was more violent and its trajectory was more erratic and unpredictable.

The fat man felt a little nervous, but facing Jiang Xuan's attack, he could only wait until the silver spear got closer before making a judgment.

"clang!"

"Bore!"

The silver spear struck the dagger in the fat man's hand, and in a flash, it spun again, swinging towards the fat man. Startled, the fat man had no choice but to quickly retreat, raising his knife again to block. After dodging Jiang Xuan's two consecutive attacks, the fat man's eyes were as sharp as lightning, and the moment Jiang Xuan landed, he quickly attacked, slashing at Jiang Xuan with a sound of breaking air.

"Hey!"

Jiang Xuan was unable to adjust himself and had to pull out his spear to block, but his whole body was numb at this moment. Although the spear in his hand had been changed from Wuxi to Yanxing, his speed was still a bit slower, and a cut was made on his abdomen by the short knife.

After another retreat, Jiang Xuan glanced down at the wound on his abdomen and said in a deep voice, "One more round."

He carried the silver spear on his shoulder, turned his body, and the spear spun out, with the tip of the spear whistling and piercing towards the fat man with a faint force.

This move was surprisingly similar to the one used against the thin man. However, this time, Jiang Xuan's body swayed more violently under the paralyzing effect of the poison, and the spear's rotation speed was even faster than the previous one.

The fat man, who had witnessed the previous attack, naturally did not dare to be careless. He tensed his nerves and concentrated on observing the attack route of the spear in Jiang Xuan's hand.

The silver spear seemed to have no weight in Jiang Xuan's hand. It looked like a slender willow leaf swaying in the wind.

“Boring…Boring…”

Several rapid sounds were heard, and the silver spear collided with the dagger several times in an instant!

Although the fat man blocked the spear attacks one by one, he had no time to look after anything else and staggered backward.

The fat man who was crushing the opponent began to show fear, but after a little thought, he made up his mind and launched a counterattack against Jiang Xuan with all his strength.

The dagger pierced Jiang Xuan's abdomen. Fortunately, Jiang Xuan held the blade of the dagger tightly with his left hand, so the blade did not penetrate too deep.

"puff!"

A stream of blood gushed out of Jiang Xuan's mouth, splashing onto the dagger. His bloody mouth, about to raise its head, twitched due to the numbness in his body. "Second round, it's over."

After saying that, he raised the gun in his right hand and stabbed it, and when the fat man dodged, he stepped back to create some distance between him and him.

Jiang Xuan was stabbed twice and his whole body was numb.

He was completely at a disadvantage on the scene, and the fat man had obviously begun to use all his strength and was not prepared to fight with Jiang Xuan anymore.

In the eyes of anyone other than Jiang Xuan, Jiang Xuan was facing a life-or-death situation at the moment.

However, Jiang Xuan didn't think so.

After two attempts, he initially verified the images in his mind.

Next, what Jiang Xuan has to do is to kill the fat man with one blow!

"Fatty, where are those pills?"

"Where is it? Little brat, even if I tell you, do you think you will still be able to get it alive?" The fat man sneered.

Jiang Xuan spat out a mouthful of blood and said, "Don't worry, I'll finish you off with my next move." He shouldered the silver spear and added, "It would be a shame if those pills were to disappear forever."

"Arrogant boy, you are still talking big even when you are about to die!" The fat man was a little angry and was ready to use the Jingzhe Knife to kill the other party with one blow.
