The son of a bitch looked like Zhou Mi in the flesh!For an instant, Chen Ping’an thought that Ma Kuxuan had already colluded with Zhou Mi, waiting for this day to kill him and take half of everything.Zhou Mi smiled as he casually raised his hand, spreading his fingers apart as if casually slicing down.
Chen Ping’an’s foot had just taken a step when a deep trench appeared on the ground outside the city walls, stretching out indefinitely.The realm of Liùyóu’s little world was almost broken;it was actually only slightly damaged.In a flash, Zhou Mi disappeared from sight as Chen Ping’an suddenly turned around and delivered a sword strike.A tiny speck in the air suddenly transformed into a statue towering thousands of feet high.
It stomped down towards Chen Ping’an with immense force.The golden hand sliced through Ma Kuxuan’s huge figure without any hindrance, but it also pushed him apart like giant hands.
Chen Ping’an frowned as he tried to block against such strength;in his current realm, having one’s statue cut by a sword was normal.But Ma Kuxuan was not an ordinary immortal—his golden body should not be so fragile.Suddenly, Chen Ping’an’s heartstrings tightened, and he quickly retreated.
Seeing Zhou Mi suddenly reappear on the city walls with his hand reaching out, Chen Ping’an knew that it was indeed Zhou Mi.Zhou Mi raised his finger to signal him.Chen Ping’an did not need to turn;he swung his sword as a counterattack.But the ever-present Zhou Mi easily grasped the tip of Nighthiking Sword with his fingers.
He lifted his hand and condensed sword qi into a long sword, slicing towards Chen Ping’an’s shoulder.Chen Ping’an’s body transformed into numerous sword lights that reformed to his true form a hundred miles away.The next moment, it seemed as if Ma Kuxuan had already set up his stance, delivering a fist towards himself.
A powerful punch, unstoppable,As the fist and Chen Ping’an clashed, hundreds of mirrors shattered all around in a display of dazzling splendor.This was the advantage of having both heaven’s and earth’s favor.
Even with temporary barriers set up, Chen Ping’an still needed to shrink and move to avoid the impact.Ma Kuxuan flicked his fingers as if calling him out.
As he spoke, time seemed to freeze, pulling Chen Ping’an from a hidden realm.A golden hand appeared in the clouds, reaching towards Chen Ping’an with tremendous speed.Chen Ping’an delivered a sword strike that tore through the giant hand before forcefully smashing down on him.The ground trembled as dust and dirt flew up.
After being smashed, Chen Ping’an knelt on one knee at the center of the crater, coughing up blood.Ma Kuxuan’s palm struck with such force, even though he did not practice fist combat.
Why was this seemingly magical or divine strike still so powerful?Chen Ping’an did not need to turn as his sword cut through the air.But Zhou Mi easily grabbed the tip of Nighthiking Sword with his fingers and raised his hand.
His sword qi condensed into a long sword, slicing towards Chen Ping’an’s shoulder.Chen Ping’an’s body transformed into numerous sword lights, reforming to his true form in over a hundred miles away.In an instant, Ma Kuxuan seemed to predict the next move, delivering another punch.A powerful fist struck with immense force,As it clashed with Chen Ping’an, hundreds of mirrors shattered around them, sending sparks flying in all directions.This was the advantage of having both heaven’s and earth’s favor.
Even with temporary barriers set up, Chen Ping’an still needed to shrink and move to avoid that fist.Zhou Mi murmuró la palabra “retirada” (withdraw) como si estuviera dando órdenes al propio tiempo.
La zanja en el suelo desapareció instantáneamente, como si el tiempo se hubiera invertido, devolviendo todo a su estado original.Ma Kuxuan beckoned with his finger towards Chen Ping’an.Chen Ping’an was about to speak when Zhou Mi slowly moved forward and said, "The sword skills of those who carved messages on the city walls, they disappointed Moxian Sword."Chen Ping’an replied, "Even your name—what is it that you fear me knowing?Are you afraid I might find out where you are hiding or do you think I can sense your true form from a distance?Did your single thought break this golden body of yours?"Zhou Mi replied, "I dare not call you by your name, but Moxian Sword calls Zhou Mi directly."Chen Ping’an laughed carelessly and said, "I am a waste;it does not matter if I am even more of one."Zhou Mi continued, "In the book I read, the two stories told how their protagonists survived not because they were protagonists, but because they needed to survive for them to be protagonists.""The first story began in a mud bottle lane called Huayang County, and its protagonist was named Chen.""The second story started at a scholarly family in Zhongtu Divine Continent, with a turning point on the Sword Qi Great Wall.
The most content was spent in the Wasteland World, concluding in Grand Righteousness.
The ending has yet to be determined."Chen Ping’an suddenly said, "I understand now;that’s good strategy."
