Playing with fantasy beasts in the martial arts world

Chapter 65 The Hundred-Loss Taoist
"Thank you, Master!" Huo Du was overjoyed upon hearing this.

He didn't know what the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth was, but he trusted Cha Nan's words completely.

Before Huo Du could straighten up from his bent-over position, the previously closed door suddenly opened, and a gust of cold wind blew in from outside.

"What a despicable Prince Huo Du! He has actually stooped so low as to betray his country and join the Song people!" A cold voice pierced through the air, carrying a chilling aura.

Then, frost seemed to climb over all the doors and windows in the room, and a thin, dark-skinned, middle-aged Taoist priest with sharp eyebrows and a long black beard strode in through the cold wind.

"The Hundred-Loss Taoist!" Huo Du blocked Cha Nan's path and called out the Taoist's identity.

Bai Sun Dao Ren was also a martial arts prodigy. After all, there are not many masters that Zhang Sanfeng can remember. Moreover, Zhang Sanfeng was already seventy years old when he killed Bai Sun Dao Ren. At that time, Zhang Sanfeng was already a grandmaster and legend in the martial arts world.

The fact that the seventy-year-old Zhang Sanfeng regarded Bai Sun Dao Ren as a worthy opponent speaks volumes about his strength.

This man was definitely a master of the evil sect. If he hadn't encountered the even more monstrous Zhang Sanfeng, the entire martial arts world would probably have trembled in fear under his tyranny.

When Cha Nan announced Bai Sun Dao Ren's identity in Huo Du, he had already summoned Fang Dong Bai and Chi Yan Niu respectively, and at the same time, he put Guo Fu into the Palu terminal.

Without the slightest hesitation, Cha Nan had the Blazing Bull use its most powerful fire-type skill, 'Flame Ball,' on Bai Sun Dao Ren, while Fang Dongbai was also moving around, waiting for the right opportunity.

There is only a need to hold back your trump cards when the two sides are evenly matched.

If there is a significant disparity in strength between the two sides, then while there is still some information gap, we should immediately use our greatest advantage to create favorable conditions for ourselves.

Sometimes, the battles in the martial arts world and the competition between athletes on the field do have similarities.

If you are strong, take the proper and righteous path, proceed steadily and surely; if you are weak, take an unconventional approach and gamble.

As expected, although the 'Flame Ball' skill had a slightly longer charging time, Bai Sun Dao Ren had not expected that the giant red bull could release a fireball, so he was not prepared in time. Even though his keen senses issued a warning immediately after the fireball was launched, it was too late to move out of the fireball's range!

The main reason is that not only was the fireball three meters in diameter and covered a considerable area, but also because Fang Dongbai recklessly restrained Bai Sun, at the same time as the Blazing Bull used its skill, Fang Dongbai, at Cha Nan's prompting, thrust his sword at Bai Sun's left rib, completely adopting an offensive-only approach.

A top-tier expert like Fang Dongbai, once he chooses to fight to the death, will be someone even a master like Bai Sun Daoren will have to take seriously.

In a flash, Bai Sun Dao Ren swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue. He ducked down, shrinking into a ball, and burrowed into Fang Dongbai's arms. He wanted to dodge Fang Dongbai's fierce and desperate sword strike, and also use Fang Dongbai's body as cover to block most of the fireball's damage.

At the same time, a chill seeped into Fang Dongbai's body, threatening to freeze him completely.

boom!
The fireball first landed on Fang Dongbai, igniting him.

Fang Dongbai transformed into a giant torch, and his body, which was not frozen, firmly locked Bai Sun Dao Ren in place, preventing Bai Sun Dao Ren from breaking free in an instant.

With its hooves ablaze, the Fiery Bull charged forward, knocking Fang Dongbai and both of them flying out the door.

Blazing Bull has three fire-type moves: Flame Ball, Flame Shot, and Flame Splash. However, apart from Flame Ball, the other two fire-type moves are only so-so in terms of power.

Therefore, in order to expand the results, Cha Nan did not let the Blazing Bull use its skills again, but instead used its size and strength to directly charge at the enemy.

While it's true that martial artists aren't exactly known for high attack and low defense, aside from those who specialize in external martial arts, most people in the martial arts world possess surprisingly strong physical defenses.

Few people could withstand being hit by a blazing bull that's as big as a small truck.

Guo Jing once said that the Fiery Bull's attack contained 70% of his palm strike power, and Cha Nan remembered this.

At this moment, the entire door, along with the windows and parts of the walls, had collapsed. The loud noise and commotion did not attract the guards outside, perhaps indicating that they had already been murdered.

Instead of rushing out, Cha Nan touched the ground with both palms.

Within the stronghold, he could manipulate the ground, reshaping the soil and stones to some extent. While he couldn't build structures out of thin air, he could still raise some walls or earthen slopes.

At this moment, Cha Nan used this ability to raise pillars of mud in the direction where Bai Sun Dao Ren had fallen.

Not to inflict damage or finish off the enemy, but to probe Baisun's current state.

Masters of internal energy have a very strong vitality. Even if their internal organs are shattered, they can still live for a short period of time as long as they rely on their true energy to survive.

boom!
In the burning corner, shattered pieces of earth, stone, and brick flew everywhere. Bai Sun Dao Ren was disheveled, his hair was disheveled, his body was charred black, and half of his body drooped out of the flames. His eyes were as ferocious as a demon's as he looked at Cha Nan.

But the moment he stood up, he fired two darts carrying a chilling aura, which pierced the body of the Blazing Bull.

Although the Fiery Bull's hide was thick, the dart didn't penetrate very deeply. However, the chilling internal energy contained within the dart froze a portion of the Fiery Bull's body tissues, rendering it unable to stand for a short period.

The Blazing Bull is not known for its speed and reaction time, so it was impossible for it to dodge in time. After being hit, it let out a mournful cry, lost its strength, and knelt heavily on the ground.

"Say your name!"

"You are worthy of dying by my hand and being remembered by me."

"I must say... you've broadened my horizons today. You strange beast... very good! I'll gladly accept you!" As Bai Sun Dao Ren spoke, he didn't stop. With the circulation and spread of his true energy, the charred parts on his body were temporarily frozen and poisoned, preventing the wounds from worsening and continuing to affect his condition.

The biggest difference between the Xuanming Divine Palm and ice-based martial arts such as the Frost True Qi and Frost Palm is that it not only has the dual attributes of ice and poison, but its power, onset time, duration, etc. can also be adjusted, making it extremely insidious.

As the creator of the Xuanming Divine Palm, Bai Sun Dao Ren was able to use this martial art to its fullest potential. Whether to harm or save people was entirely up to him.

As Bai Sun Dao Ren approached, his feet covered in frost, Cha Nan waved his hand and summoned the wolf hunter once more.

Looking at the wolf with its mouth full of sharp teeth and ferocious appearance, Bai Sun Dao Ren couldn't help but slow down.

Having suffered a loss at the hands of the Blazing Bull, he naturally became more vigilant and cautious towards the Wolf Hunter.

"Howling Moon Silver Wolf, use Absolute Freeze!" Cha Nan shouted.

Upon hearing this, the Hundred Losses Taoist, though unable to understand it, felt a sense of awe and immediately filled his entire body with true energy, adopting a defensive posture.

However, Cha Nan steadied himself and was already sitting on the wolf's back. The wolf accelerated and rushed towards the central courtyard of the Liu residence: "Master Jellyfish! Grandma Jellyfish! Come out and save me!"

Even with their strongest beasts, the Blazing Bull and Fang Dongbai, using sneak attacks and suicidal strikes, they couldn't completely cripple Bai Sun Dao Ren. Cha Nan didn't believe that the remaining phantom beasts in his possession could really suppress or damage Bai Sun.

Moreover, with the opponent on guard, it becomes much more difficult to hit them again.

If I don't run now, am I just going to have my neck snapped?

Cha Nan didn't want to see her own buttocks with her own eyes.
