Chapter 689: Ghost Head Knife
Time waited for no one, and soon, the three hundred city guards formed a formation and attacked towards the north gate. Chu Xian was also among them, and the corpse swordsman was guarding Chu Xian with a sword.
Martial arts competition, if it is one-on-one, will first compare the momentum, and the two armies are fighting and fighting, there is nothing to brew, and there is only a concise and bright fight.
Arrows fly, dense as rain, special bows can produce huge power, enough to shoot arrows out of a hundred zhang, within a certain distance, even iron armor is useless, and paper paste is not much different, encounter with the quenching process to create a sawtooth arrow, directly can penetrate.
If you use a shield, a light shield can't be blocked, it can only be a heavy shield, three hundred city guards, there are not many strong shields, only thirty sides, at this moment all in front, blocking the arrows like a torrential rain, can only hear the sound of clanging, the city guards holding the shield only feel that the shield is constantly surging with strength, can only be held with all their strength, step forward.
However, although most of the arrows were resisted, there were still a few of them shot through the gap between the shields, and for a while a scream came, and some of the city guards were pierced by the arrows, and the dead and wounded.
Fortunately, the inner city gate is not as difficult to attack as outside, as long as you get close to the front you can control the city gate, the forbidden army guarding the gate there is obviously unwilling, after the arrows, they will charge over with a halberd shouting, and the city guards here are also raising swords to meet the battle, and they are suddenly fighting together.
Whether it is the city guards or the forbidden army, they are all their own masters, each of them is a warrior who has been practicing for many years, under the rainy night, fighting to the death, regardless of right or wrong, meaningless life and death, only victory and defeat.
Chu Xian also quickly fought against the masters in the opposing army, a martial saint and three grandmasters.
Except for one who was wearing the armor of a forbidden military academy captain, the rest were all black cloth clothes, which should be martial arts masters recruited by the Imperial Division from the people.
In normal times, although this kind of character is powerful, in Jingzhou, where the Dao Immortals are like clouds, they can only live with their tails between them, but under the voodoo blood rain that Li Qianlong made, they are like fish in water. said that the martial saint had a hideous face, a face full of flesh, and the fierceness in his eyes would be frightened when ordinary people saw it.
This person is holding a ghost-headed big knife, and his whole body is rippling with true qi, and his body is like clothes.
This true qi is like clothes, there is a saying in the martial arts world, it is called dragon beard clothes, it can be attacked, defended, and it is infinitely useful, the rain was clear before, Chu Xian thought that Li Qianlong's skills were not enough, but he didn't expect this rain, the more it fell, the heavier it became, and it began to turn red, like blood.
Therefore, the dragon beard of the martial saint on the opposite side was dyed with a layer of blood, dazzling and hideous.
"You are Chu Xian? What a big reputation, Lao Tzu has listened to you a lot in recent years, I heard that you are still the youngest Taoist immortal in the officialdom of the Holy Dynasty? promising, but Lao Tzu likes to kill the most, is a Taoist immortal like you, you are high on weekdays, relying on magic to run rampant, but I can't think of it, today there is this blood rain falling, your cultivation is lost, like mortals, Lao Tzu has already beheaded a Taoist immortal before, that taste, it is really good, and you Chu Xian, is Lao Tzu I killed the second Taoist immortal today, take your life. ”
This martial saint sword shines, although the body is large, it is extremely fast, and the opponent's ghost head big knife is five feet long, plus this martial saint is tall and arm-long, under the sweep, the attack range is wider than that halberd, and there are two city guards in front of him who want to step forward to block, but they were cut by this martial saint with a sword, and even the shield was cut in two.
"Stand down, you are no match for this man. Chu Xian's brows furrowed, this martial saint's ability is not weak, and it is even more powerful than the three forbidden army martial saints he dealt with in the imperial city before.
It's no wonder that they were able to capture the North City Gate so quickly, in addition, the three martial arts masters behind the other party were also unusual, all of them were ruthless and didn't talk much, and the general city guards were not their opponents at all.
Fortunately, there are corpse swordsmen by Chu Xian's side.
Chu Xian gave an order, and the corpse swordsman immediately stepped forward to fight with the three martial arts masters, as for this martial saint with a ghost head sword, Chu Xian personally dealt with it.
The other party said that he had killed Dao Immortals before, and it didn't look like he was lying, that is to say, in this accident, there was already a Dao Immortal who had fallen.
And to be sure, there is not only one.
Many officials of the Holy Dynasty only studied official arts, and some cultivated the Immortal Dao, but there were not many who really cultivated the martial arts, so this voodoo blood rain could be said to have too much impact on the officials of the Holy Dynasty, just like the top and most powerful immortal guards of the Holy Dynasty.
Because the immortal guards are all Dao immortals, and there are no martial saints, under this bloody rain, the combat power is afraid to be reduced by ninety percent, and it is not as strong as the combat power of the cave candle guard.
Thinking of the cave candle guards, Chu Xian breathed a sigh of relief, there are also hundreds of cave candle guards arranged by Ji Wen in Jingzhou, these are all real martial arts masters, with them, they can also form a combat force.
Chu Xian can't think about it so much at the moment, he has more important things to do. Whoever stops him, Chu Xian will kill him.
Coincidentally, the other party used a knife, and Chu Xian also used a knife.
Chu Xian's knife is a straight-backed Qingyun knife, which belongs to the city guard standard war knife, the forging process is very exquisite, it can be regarded as a treasure knife, generally weighing thirty-seven pounds, extremely pressed, but in Chu Xian's hands, it is used freely, flying up and down. However, even if it is this kind of knife, it can only try to avoid a hard confrontation with the opponent's ghost head knife, the opponent's knife, which weighs at least 100 catties, is too powerful to wield.
In just a few breaths, the two of them have already made dozens of moves, and the ground within a few zhang of the surrounding area is full of knife marks, and the dragon beard clothes on the martial saint's body are all smooth, and Chu Xian's body can also use true qi to condense the dragon beard clothes, but the situation is slightly better.
"Unexpectedly, your Lord Chu is actually also a martial saint, okay, okay, then take Lao Tzu a few more knives and try it!" The martial saint stared at his eyes the size of a copper bell, and his momentum skyrocketed at this moment.
Under the slash, there was actually a sword mang, and everywhere it passed, the earth and stones were broken, the houses were damaged, and this terrifying power could be heard from a long distance.
Not far away, a pair of city guards of about 100 people were moving forward, and the captain who led the team heard the loud noise of the destruction of the house, hurriedly asked the city guards to stop, and then flew over the roof with a few guards and climbed high to look into the distance.
"That's the ghost head martial saint Huo Baitong, this person is also a famous martial saint, killing people like hemp, I didn't expect to come too, he must have been recruited by the imperial department. "The captain is also a grandmaster cultivator, and when he looks at it at this moment, his expression is solemn.
"That's the North City Gate, right? I heard that it has been captured by the forbidden army, and the other party has the help of such a strong man, no wonder it can capture the North City Gate. One of the guards next to him was terrified.
Martial Saint, for them, is an invincible existence, not to mention the famous Ghost Head Martial Saint among the Martial Saints.
"No matter who fights against that ghost-headed martial saint, I'm afraid it's going to be more than lucky, Lord Captain, do you want to go over and help?" asked the guard in a low voice.
The lieutenant looked hesitant and struggling.
"We are ordered to go to Shangshu Mansion to protect the immortal official, this is an order, not to be violated, after all, under this blood rain, all the Dao immortals in Jingzhou have been affected, and the mana has been lost, even the immortal body has also been eroded by the blood rain, and it is extremely weak, we must not disobey the order. ”
"But Lord Lieutenant, if you don't help the fist, the brothers over there are afraid that they will be more than lucky. The guard looked anxious, he had already seen that there were city guards and forbidden troops fighting over there, if he didn't suppress the ghost-headed martial saint, hundreds of city guards over there would definitely die.
The captain looked embarrassed at the moment, he really wanted to help, but he had an order, and he couldn't disobey it, and there was another point, when he was learning martial arts in his early years, after being promoted to grandmaster, he had fought with the Ghost Head Martial Saint, and at that time it was just one move, he was defeated, and he also left a scar on his body, although he was lucky not to die, but the impact of this incident on him can never be forgotten.
The strength and sword skills of the Ghost Head Martial Saint Huo Baitong, he is not an opponent at all, so he is also very clear that even if he leads his own hundred people to help, the end will only be one hundred more souls.
So even if he can't get over it with his conscience, he can't go over and help.
"Lord Captain, the one who is fighting against that ghost-headed martial saint seems to be Lord Chu Xian!" The guard shouted at this time, their city guards, who are responsible for the security of Jingzhou, naturally have the opportunity to see a big official like Chu Xian, and when he sees it at this moment, he recognizes it.
"What?Lord Chu Xian?" the school captain's pupils shrank, and he immediately took a closer look, and sure enough.
"Brothers, listen to orders!" The captain shouted without hesitation at this time: "Come with me to help Lord Chu Xian meet the enemy." ”
The guard next to him was stunned: "Lord Captain, isn't this disobedient?"
The captain shook his head: "The Shoufu Pavilion has long ordered that if you meet Lord Chu Xian, you will protect it at all costs, so we don't count this as disobedience, brothers, follow me." ”
"Yes!"
At that moment, the hundred-person city guards immediately rushed over, they were not far from each other, but they arrived in a moment, and at this time, Chu Xian and Na Huo Baitong had already fought a hundred moves.
In all fairness, Huo Baitong is indeed powerful, his strength is endless, his knife skills are fierce, and the knife is indestructible, often with a knife, Chu Xian avoids it, and the house behind him is destroyed, sawdust flies around, and the scene is extremely chaotic. It was as if no one could resist his sword.
It's just that if you explore carefully, you will find that the other party can't cut Chu Xian with so many moves, so in terms of body style, Chu Xian is completely better than the other party.
Huo Baitong was also a little anxious if he couldn't attack for a long time, his sword skills became more and more powerful, and at the same time, he secretly said that the other party was slippery and elusive, but he still had three grandmaster helpers, and when the grandmaster helper killed the little girl, he would come to help, and see how this Chu Xian could dodge?
As soon as Huo Baitong thought of this, he took the time to turn his head to look, but at this glance, he was stunned and couldn't believe it. I saw that the three grandmasters he had high hopes for had already fallen to the ground at this moment, with no breath, and one of their heads had been cut off, and they had been dead for a long time.
Look at the little girl with the sword, with a cold face, just standing aside and watching the battle, those eyes are expressionless, but looking at you, it makes you goosebumps all over your body.
