The first person to lose his temper was Jiang Cheng.
The purpose of his operation was to save people, but he didn't expect that there would be so many complications. If the delay continued, the imprisoned strangers would only become more and more dangerous. Not only that, Cui Benshan and others are still waiting for news outside. The longer the time goes on, the more uneasy it will be for them. Thinking of all this, Jiang Cheng's mind couldn't help but become a little confused, and he could no longer focus on the battle.
Heike was obviously also a good fighter. He immediately saw that Jiang Cheng's fighting spirit had waned, so he took action immediately.
The black mist moved again, faster than before, and was accompanied by "rumbling" ground cracking sounds one after another. Wherever the black mist passed, it was like wildfire burning, leaving scorched black marks. Among the traces, every one foot, there will be a footprint three inches into the ground. The "rumbling" sound was actually the sound of Heike's footsteps.
Jiang Cheng quickly gathered his thoughts and could only deal with the enemy in front of him carefully. But at this moment, he suddenly realized that his spirit had become unable to concentrate.
Whenever Jiang Cheng wanted to concentrate, there would be a sound of footsteps, hitting his brain like a drum. Jiang Cheng immediately felt his mind swaying, and his consciousness was momentarily confused. The sound of footsteps came one after another, causing Jiang Cheng's heartbeat to speed up unnaturally, his fighting spirit became increasingly weak, and visions appeared before his eyes, making him feel so uncomfortable that he almost fainted.
An evil thought also came along with the footsteps and penetrated into Jiang Cheng's consciousness.
"The magic sound of step drum"!
The thought coming from Black Shell was just telling Jiang Cheng the name of this move.
"I don't care what you are! Break it for me!" Jiang Cheng roared angrily, and his existing mental power was no longer running at full power without reservation. A sudden wind rose from the ground, blowing Jiang Cheng's hair to stand on end, and his whole body flashed like electric current one after another. of clear light.
Except for the Ancient God Apostles, there were very few people who could make Jiang Cheng fall into hallucinations, but this time he actually managed to do it. Jiang Cheng secretly hated himself for being careless, and even more hated the illusion of playing with people's hearts. Under a surge of anger, a new power emerged in Jiang Cheng's consciousness, which actually made him cheer up again. The sound of footsteps disappeared in Jiang Cheng's ears, and Jiang Cheng finally concentrated his energy and prepared to face the enemy's frontal attack.
But at this moment, he suddenly discovered that Black Shell was already approaching.
A palm, wearing a black glove like a beetle shell, broke through the black fog and slashed towards Jiang Cheng's neck. The palm seems wide, and the carapace on the outside adds a bit of thickness, but the attack is so fierce that it gives the illusion of being struck by a sharp long knife. Jiang Cheng did not think this was an illusion at all, nor did he doubt that this palm had the power to divide gold and break stone.
Although he regained his concentration, Jiang Cheng was not ready to take the attack. At this time, the only thing he could do was to avoid its attack first.
If you block hastily, you will only put yourself at a disadvantage first, and then the opponent will inevitably use an endless follow-up offensive to completely destroy Jiang Cheng's combat capability.
Jiang Cheng had anticipated this, and the foreshadowing that "True Self" brought to him was the same ending.
But the palm knife has already approached less than a foot in front of him. Does Jiang Cheng still have a chance to avoid it now
No matter what, Jiang Cheng must avoid it!
For now, there is only one way to do it.
Time, stop!
Jiang Cheng shouted low, and everything around him suddenly slowed down. Even the palm knife approaching in front of him became as slow as an insect crawling.
As I said before, time standing still only made Jiang Cheng's reactions and thinking extremely fast, which in turn caused time to slow down. In such a state, Jiang Cheng was also very slow if he wanted to take action. If he wants his movements to keep up with the reaction speed at this moment, the pressure he will bear will be unimaginably huge.
The air will have strong resistance like a solid, and its own force-generating muscles will also use force beyond the safe range.
Jiang Cheng knew what this meant, it meant risks, and it also meant taking back the initiative in the battle.
With no time to hesitate, Jiang Cheng summoned all his strength and moved in such extremely slow time. Although he still couldn't keep up with the reaction speed, in Jiang Cheng's relative sense, his movements were still very slow, but they were already much faster than the approaching speed of the hand knife.
Although it was only a few minutes faster than normal, Jiang Cheng's body had already begun to experience adverse reactions. There was a faint pain like a knife on his skin, capillaries ruptured, and red spots oozed out on his skin. Not only his skin, but also his mouth and nose showed a touch of red. It was only because of the extremely slow time that the blood did not flow out immediately.
Jiang Cheng didn't care about this, and was moving with difficulty to get out of the way of Heike's knife, and slowly moved behind the opponent. If you didn't notice the hand knife moving at a turtle's speed, the mist wrapping the black shell would be frozen like a sculpture.
But at the moment Jiang Cheng didn't notice, the solid mist suddenly began to float slowly.
Inexplicably, Jiang Cheng felt that the resistance to movement was reduced. He thought it was because he had adapted to the resistance of the air. Immediately afterwards, bloodshot blood seeped out of his skin and seven orifices.
Blood flowed out, which means...
wind!
Strong wind!
The mist surges crazily, like a dark tornado!
Jiang Cheng finally confirmed that time had returned to normal without him knowing it!
It was this black mist that brought my thinking and reaction speed back to normal!
How is it done
There was no time to think about the reason, because time was restored, which meant that Black Shell could also move freely.
Sure enough, he swung his sword in the air, but without any surprise, he turned around and kicked Jiang Cheng behind him without looking back.
Fortunately, this time Jiang Cheng sensed the opponent's movements in advance and swung his arm like a sledgehammer to force the opponent's kick away. At the same time, above Jiang Cheng's right fist, the Qiming Star bloomed with clear light, and plunged into the black mist with his fist.
In an instant, clear light swam in the dark fog, like lightning in dark clouds.
An explosion suddenly erupted, and Jiang Cheng and Heike were bounced away by the force of the explosion and flew to both sides.
In this round, the two were really tied.
Jiang Cheng secretly said he was lucky, but he noticed that his eyes suddenly turned red, and two streams of heat crossed his cheeks, exuding a hint of iron smell.
Just as he was about to raise his hand to wipe it, Jiang Cheng saw a few drops of blood fall on his palm.
"You're bleeding."
A thought was transmitted to Jiang Cheng's consciousness.
Jiang Cheng looked at Heike and said coldly, "So what? You just got punched by me."
The black mist once again turned into a slow drift, and the tall figure of the black shell was looming in it.
In the black-shelled helmet, the eye sockets seemed as deep as black holes. A thought came out again, "You have tried your best."
Jiang Cheng hated the other party communicating with him through thoughts, but he couldn't isolate the other party's thoughts, so he said, "So what?"
Heike tilted his head, "It's my turn."
Jiang Cheng was stunned when he saw the black mist dancing crazily again, condensing into a ball with a diameter of about two meters, and speeding towards Jiang Cheng.
At this moment, Jiang Cheng suddenly realized that the obscure evil energy remaining in the tunnel was very similar to this black ball!
That tunnel in the basement of the bar was made of black shell!
