The broken stone chips bounced and hit the edge of the roof. The smoke and dust gradually dissipated. The moment the blade of the knife lightly dropped to the ground, the outline of a person appeared in the dust in front of Bai Ning's sight. The air suddenly fluctuated, and the floating dust particles and the moonlight were distorted and misplaced. The knife light flew out from thin air and drew a half moon.
Bai Ning raised his hand and held the knife. With a clang, marks appeared on the slender blade. As the blade shook, he maintained the posture of holding the knife and slid back two meters.
This force came from the sword he had just swung.
Wow~~
The white leather shoes left a long scratch on the concrete floor, and stopped after the force was released. The indifference in Bai Ning's eyes revealed surprise. He knew a little about the art of giving someone a taste of their own medicine, but this was not martial arts at all. Instead, the sword energy that he had chopped out was directly pushed back by some method.
The smoke and dust fell silently to the ground, revealing the outline of a figure. He walked out shaking the bronze mirror at his waist. His arms, covered with a white robe and a green shirt, were still behind his back. Lu Liangsheng walked forward with a flat voice.
"Your martial arts skills are the strongest among all the martial artists I know. You are a little stronger than Zuo Qianwei back then. If you continue like this, it will only take a few years for you to enter the realm of cultivation. Why would you need to rely on the power of the demon star?"
There was light shining from afar, and Bai Ning grinned: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
The blade swung with a buzz, the blade pointing forward, and his figure instantly turned into a shadow, drawing a straight line. In the gap between the alternating light and darkness, Bai Ning was so fast that he almost disappeared in the air. The dragging slender blade cut out an arc, and when he chopped over there, the sound of metal exploding in the air.
The knife force did not stop in the air, and the white suit rebounded and created a circle of ripples that spread. The next moment, Bai Ning disappeared like a ghost, and his speed suddenly increased. When he reappeared, he was hanging outside the rooftop on the right side of Lu Liangsheng. The blade swung across his chest, and disappeared again in the instant the knife energy was chopped out. As the speed became faster and faster, countless figures evolved and surrounded the scholar from all directions and slashed wildly. The different movements, the motionless knife force, and the light from the distant building intertwined to create countless spots of light that flashed like a storm.
The splashing air waves and the force of the knife pushed large and small stones everywhere and hit the water tower standing not far away. A big hole was punched in the surface of the aluminum alloy, and a column of water spurted out.
Amidst the countless explosions in the air, Lu Liangsheng looked calmly at the figures intertwined around him. He raised his hand lightly and flicked his robe sleeves. The flickering spots of light seemed to lose their luster in an instant. A knife blade groaned in a twisted way that it could not bear, and flew into the night sky. The flying figure stumbled to the ground, and Bai Ning's steps that kept retreating caused the concrete floor to crack inch by inch, and the broken pieces flew out in all directions.
"Master Governor!!"
The moonlight was like frost, and in the interweaving of light and darkness, a loud shout suddenly rang out. Above the distant building, a black shadow shook the wall and used the force to leap into the air. Its right fist clenched into a metallic friction sound.
"stop!"
He flew over the distance of more than 20 meters between two buildings and swung out with his iron glove clenched fist.
At the edge of the roof over there, Lu Liangsheng raised his arm, without even looking at the figure flying over and swinging his fist, he pointed his finger horizontally, and Dongfang Xu, who was screaming and swinging his fist, froze in an instant. The pointed finger made another move, pulling the man over, and with a swing of his robe sleeve, threw him to the roof, rolling a few times before stopping.
Dongfang Xu tried to move twice, but his eyeballs rolled around in his sockets and he couldn't even move his toes. An unprecedented fear rose from the bottom of his heart, and he looked at the scholar opposite him with horror.
'It's a spell... just like the message... said.'
Standing at the pinnacle of martial arts, Bai Ning's eyes showed solemnity. Although he could do what he did just now, he was just pressing acupoints from a distance, and the opponent could not detect any trace of internal force at all.
But...if I stop here, I will no longer be Bai Ning.
He gripped the hilt of the knife tightly, and his body suddenly arched up. The blood vessels around his eyes bulged, and his internal force disappeared. Instead, the true energy attached to the blade. In the instant that the thought flashed through his mind, he drew out the knife and swung it, slashing out countless blade beams.
—Iron Tree Prison·Thousands of Cuts!
One knife, two knives, four knives, ten knives, a hundred knives... The moment they rushed to the opposite side, they gathered into a straight line. In an instant, the blurry figure stopped behind Lu Liangsheng, and the black knife sank into the scabbard with a slight "click" sound.
The air leaves something different.
The scholar who was standing in place finally twitched his eyelids and looked around. In the air, there were spider-silk-like things that were invisible to the naked eye, densely interweaving the air and surrounding him. His black hair was fluttering in the wind, and a hair fell off the silk thread, broke silently, and fell to his shoulder.
"Interesting..." Turning his face slightly, Lu Liangsheng raised the corner of his mouth, and stretched out his fingers to move the silk threads that trapped the air. The next second, countless transparent silk threads intertwined with the surrounding air suddenly flowed, pulling and cutting to cover the scholar.
Bai Ning turned around and saw Dongfang Xu, who was still unable to move on the ground, staring straight at the center of the intersection. A piercing sound suddenly rang out, and a golden light suddenly rose up, with dense seal characters flowing on it. The entire building beneath him shook, and a hesitant cry of fear was heard.
Crackling—
There was a sound of breaking windows, and a petite figure fell out of the window. Bai Ning, who was standing nearby, took a look at the golden light. He suddenly raised his hand and threw the knife. At the moment when the golden light was shot out, he turned and swooped down the stairs. He kicked his feet and increased his speed again. He stretched out his arm and grabbed the screaming girl, and inserted his other hand with five fingers spread out into the wall.
Crash!
As layers of cement blocks were scattered, the falling paused. Bai Ning climbed up the wall with the little man in his arms, as if he was walking on the wall, and stepped quickly back to the roof.
The little girl who was holding the thing with one arm had already fainted from fright.
Bai Ning put her on the ground and looked up at the opposite side. The black knife was clamped between Lu Liangsheng's two fingers. The densely intertwined knife energy just now could not even cut a piece of cloth on his body.
Seeing the fainted little face with eyes closed on the ground, Lu Liangsheng nodded in appreciation. The blade between his fingers quickly lit up with a seal script, and then... there was a snap, and the blade broke into more than a dozen pieces, falling to the ground like rain.
"In times of danger, you still remember to save others. Your heart is not bad, but you are too sharp."
"If it's too sharp, it will hurt many innocent people."
Lu Liangsheng clapped his hands and reached forward. Bai Ning on the opposite side wanted to dodge, but suddenly found that his feet could not move no matter what. Then he realized that the opponent had not been serious at all.
"He is really... a god?!"
A sound was squeezed out from between his teeth, and his abdomen suddenly felt hot. A red light quickly spread from his abdomen to his chest and neck. He felt as if the power hidden in the redstone was being lost. Bai Ning clenched his teeth, trying to push it back, but it still extended unimpeded to his throat.
Seeing that it was about to fly out of all the seven orifices, Lu Liangsheng frowned suddenly, and through the magic power he probed, it seemed that he saw the past and other things in the other party's thoughts, and his raised hand slowly dropped down.
He simply said, "Okay," and then put away his magic power.
"... You have big dreams in your heart, I won't stop you, but you are too sharp, maybe like this knife, it's easy to break, and it will hurt the people around you, you... It's better to leave China and go to the outside world."
Seeing the figure half-kneeling on the ground and coughing while holding his chest, Lu Liangsheng didn't want to pester him any more and turned to leave. Behind him, Bai Ning raised his head and stared at his back, "I was about to leave. Since you are here, take Gao Tianqiu and the other Z6 people away."
"It has been taken away."
The wind blew, and Lu Liangsheng stopped walking. With a soft voice, his figure blurred in the sight of the two people and disappeared on the roof. When he left, Dongfang Xu suddenly felt that his body was no longer restrained. He hurriedly got up from the ground, ran to the edge of the roof and looked down. He saw a figure exactly like Lu Liangsheng walking out with Gao Tianqiu, and gradually merged with the other Lu Liangsheng below. He raised his face and smiled at Dongfang Xu who was looking down, and then disappeared on the street with him.
Dongfang Xu, who was lying on the edge, clenched his iron gloves, crushing the cement into pieces, and slowly turned his head: "Master, that person may really be a god."
"Um."
Looking at the broken black knife on the ground, Bai Ning squatted down to pick up the pieces, with complicated emotions in his eyes, "Perhaps, only the crow can fight him."
"Don't pull me in."
In the darkness of the night, a familiar voice was blown over here by the wind. Above the broken rooftop exit, a figure came over from nowhere. He stepped one foot on the rocks, his hands on his knees, with a rather tired look on his face. He forced a smile at the two people who came over.
"I can't beat him... We've fought before, and the most powerful Great Sage Will is an acquaintance of the other party... By the way, he is also the ancestor of Z6 and Z9, I just got the news."
Xia Yi walked to the side and sat down on the rubble with his arms and legs spread out.
"… He is a genuine person from the Sui and Tang dynasties, older than you. I think he is a true immortal on earth, and the only immortal."
Over there, Bai Ning and Dongfang Xu remained silent after hearing this, looking at the darkness outside the building. The words they were still talking turned into the sound of wind blowing in their ears.
Gods... This world is becoming more and more incomprehensible.
