Captain Xing was shocked when he saw the scene in the video: "The wooden man... the wooden man is really here! Mr. Wu, what should we do?"
I pointed at the pistol on Captain Xing's waist and said, "I'll go down and take a look. You just need to hold on until I come back. If anything happens, fire a warning shot."
All the detectives in the room drew their guns and looked around as if they were facing a great enemy. I dodged and walked out through the main door.
As soon as I walked into the yard, I came face to face with the wooden man at the door at a distance of nearly a hundred meters.
When the latter saw me coming out, he immediately took a step back, leaned his legs against the front of the car, and looked in my direction without saying a word.
Although I couldn't see the other person's eyes clearly, I felt that he was looking at me, as if our eyes were colliding in the air at a distance of 100 meters, with the murderous intent to put the opponent to death. I pressed the handle of the knife with one hand and started to move forward.
Every step I took was at the same distance. The true energy in my hand began to slowly flow into the blade. The three-foot long sword began to vibrate slightly in the scabbard. I also slowly pulled the sword out of the scabbard a few inches. The three ghost coins on the blade also spun quickly. At the same time, my eyes looking at the other party began to become more and more gloomy.
Unexpectedly, the wooden man opposite slowly said: "Nine Fate Blades of Rakshasa? Ning Nitian's descendant? Even if Ning Nitian is here, he would not dare to use the Nine Fate Blades against me easily."
My heart suddenly shook, and my aura dropped a little—he actually knew Ning Nitian and the Nine Fateful Blades
Could it be that he is also the successor of the Half-Life Dao
Using corpse to connect puppets and evil soul to prolong life, is this also the inheritance of Half-Life Dao
This is clearly a sorcery! But which family of Half-Life inheritance is in line with the rules
Four thoughts flashed through my mind in succession, and the murderous intent in me unconsciously weakened a little.
The wooden man laughed coldly, "You started with the Nine Fateful Blades. You probably didn't receive the complete inheritance? Didn't Ning Nitian even tell you the taboos in the sword technique?"
My heart suddenly tightened—are there any taboos in the Nine Fatal Swords
The wooden man said calmly, "Ning Nitian is an unparalleled genius, there is no denying that. Although the Nine Fateful Blades he created are invincible, it is a unique skill that requires gambling with one's life. To put it bluntly, that sword technique is a kind of calculation. He draws the sword after seeing through the mysteries of heaven, and uses the sword to create disasters, and uses disasters to kill people."
"If you dare to start a disaster, you will be punished by heaven. How many times have you used the Nine Fateful Blades since your debut? You should know this, right? After each use of the sword, did you encounter a bigger crisis?"
My steps couldn't help but hesitate for a moment, and the distance between my feet suddenly became a little messy.
When masters fight, they must be fully focused. If they become distracted and lose their pace, they will be prone to many flaws, which will give others opportunities to take advantage of them.
As I subconsciously adjusted my steps, the wooden man spoke again, "You are the descendant of Half Life, you should know the consequences of disturbing the secrets of heaven, right? The greater the degree to which you disturb the secrets of heaven, the faster the retribution will come."
"Even if I stand still and let you strike, do you dare to kill me? Can you calculate how many secrets of the heavens will be involved after my body and soul are annihilated? I do deserve to die, but not necessarily at your hands. I can't reach my calamity, but you forcefully move it. Aren't you afraid that the calamity will befall you?"
My heart suddenly skipped a beat and my steps involuntarily stopped about five or six meters away from the other person.
The wooden man laughed at this time and said, "What do you think? Do you dare to kill me?"
When I looked up at the other person, my lips moved a few times but no words came out.
"You dare not!" The wooden man sneered, and the car parked behind him suddenly started, knocking the wooden man into the air with the force of thunder, and then knocking the gate away. The two iron gates left the ground at the same time, like long swords being pushed by someone, and swept straight in front of me.
I was so shocked that I drew my sword from its sheath, held it with both hands, and chopped at the door with the force of splitting Mount Hua. The steel bar as thick as a finger broke under the blade of Luosha. The door I chopped open tore my clothes, and at the moment it passed by my body, the mad car also rushed to three feet in front of me.
"Ha--" After I exhaled a breath of foul air, I pushed off the ground with my feet, jumped into the air, put my toes on the front of the car, took three steps in a row to cross the roof, and landed on the ground by stepping on the rear of the car.
Before I could even stand firm, I heard a sound of glass breaking behind me, followed by a strong gust of wind that hit me on the back.
"Misfortune is coming!" I turned the blade in a split second, clamped the Rakshasa under my armpit, and slapped the handle with one hand. The Rakshasa immediately turned into a cold light and shot towards my back.
When the shrill ghost cry rose to the sky behind me, I turned around as well, and the first thing I saw was a corpse with half of its body sticking out of the rear window of the car, with its right hand desperately stretched forward. My Rakshasa sword just pierced through his forehead, killing him in one blow before he could touch me.
Although the corpse ghost in the car had been scared out of its wits, the car that had lost control was still speeding forward, and no one knew where the wooden man that was hit by the car had gone.
Although I didn't see the body on the car window clearly, I was sure that it was not the wooden man who spoke to me. It was impossible for him to disappear without a trace in such a short moment. The wooden man should still be hiding in the car.
As I ran to catch up with the car, a crack appeared on the trunk of the car. Someone half-pushed the trunk lid and half of his face was exposed: "How dare you chase me? Aren't you afraid that the disaster will be retribution for yourself?"
"I am your doom!" I shouted angrily and quickened my pace. The out-of-control car crashed into the gate of the criminal police team in an instant, and stopped when it hit the wall, crushing the flying glass.
The body that had just been lying on the car window flew out of the car due to the recoil of the car, slid across the trunk, flipped half a circle in the air, and fell on the ground with its back facing the sky.
I stepped forward and stepped on the corpse, pulled out the long sword from the other side's head, and chopped it down on the trunk. The indestructible Rakshasa sword instantly broke through the hood and chopped into the car.
I was tricked! Although I couldn't see the situation in the trunk, I could feel the blade encountering resistance several times. My blade was only blocked by the trunk lid once before it touched the bottom of the trunk. There was definitely nothing else in there.
The wooden man isn't in the trunk? He's in the car!
The car just now was not out of control, someone deliberately controlled the car and crashed into the building. The other party deliberately opened the trunk just to attract my attention
As my mind raced with thoughts, I suddenly pulled back my long sword. The hood of the car that I had split open flew up at the same time, and there was only a human head inside.
Oh no! When I saw the head, my first reaction was to pull away violently - the head was covered in blood, but there was no evil spirit around it, which meant that the ghost on it had already flown away.
I had just moved my footsteps from the corpse to the side when the wooden man who had just spoken to me pushed open the door of the cab, calmly got out of the car, smiled at me, and made a throat-slitting gesture.
At the same time, I suddenly felt something standing up behind me, and the hair on my neck suddenly stood up. I clearly felt as if someone raised a long knife behind me and pointed the blade at my neck.
A short moment later, the whistling wind was close to my neck, but I turned my back on Luosha in the nick of time and blocked the long sword behind me. A moment later, a loud noise suddenly sounded, and I staggered two steps due to the huge force coming from behind, and fell on the hood of the car that I had split open.
Although the long sword in my hand was still there, my entire right arm was numb from the shock. I wanted to draw my sword but I was too weak to do so. However, the sword wind from behind me was whistling towards me again.
"Xuanming Ice Armor!" After I shouted angrily, the Xuanming true energy burst out from all over my body, and instantly formed an ice armor that was large enough to cover my entire body.
Since I learned the Mysterious Nether Ice Armor, I have never used it because I don't know how much of my true energy this purely defensive move will consume. If the Mysterious Nether Ice Armor makes me lose the strength to fight, I would be seeking my own death.
But I don’t have time to think about anything else now. If I can’t even get through this level, do I still need to care about the subsequent fights
A moment later, the sound of ice crystals exploding came from behind me. Just by looking at the figure, I could tell that the knife that attacked me from behind had moved forward three times after hitting the Xuanming Ice Armor. The last time, it completely broke through the ice armor and stuck to my neck.
The moment cold sweat suddenly broke out on my body, I felt as if the blade of the knife on my neck suddenly broke, turning into ice chips that slid down my back.
I subconsciously reached behind me and pulled out a few pieces of dark green ice flakes from my clothes.
After I held the paper-thin ice crystals in my hands, they melted into water droplets in a short while. Although the green air wrapped in ice was still oozing out, it could no longer condense together and could only dissipate in the air bit by bit.
If I hadn't subconsciously activated the Mysterious Ice Armor just now, I might have been beheaded by the green gas flying from behind. But my last unintentional use of luck to protect my body dispersed the attacking green gas outside my body.
It seems that the green gas is not invincible and it will eventually dissipate.
I didn't have time to study what the green gas was. I dragged my long sword and walked towards the direction where the wooden man disappeared.
Although the process of me dispersing the green gas took only a few seconds, the wooden man had already walked around the corner of the corridor and went towards the stairs.
After I chased him for a few steps and found him turning around, I suddenly felt a sense of danger hiding behind the corner, as if there was someone squatting there, holding his breath, ready to strike.
He was waiting for me to walk over, so that he could cut off my head or sever my tendons. (To be continued)
