Chapter 39 Reverse Meridian Techniques, Sword Slaying a Grandmaster
Chapter 39 Reverse Meridian Techniques, Sword Slaying a Grandmaster
"Arrogant brat, you're courting death."
Seeing that Lin Hanzhou was not afraid at all, but instead full of fighting spirit, the two grandmasters of the Qing army were furious.
They had dominated the northern frontier for decades, and had never been so looked down upon by a junior.
One of the grandmasters, who was even more burly and wielded a giant axe, was the first to make a move.
He stomped his feet hard on the ground, and the earth trembled.
He himself shot into the sky like a cannonball, his giant axe slashing down at Lin Hanzhou with terrifying force.
"The opening ceremony!"
A terrifying axe beam, hundreds of feet long and solid, detached from the axe blade, seemingly about to split the entire city wall of the capital in two.
Meanwhile, another grandmaster wielding a long spear was not idle either.
With a flick of his wrist, the spear in his hand shot out like lightning.
From an extremely tricky angle, it blocked all of Lin Hanzhou's escape routes and stabbed him straight in the heart.
The two grandmasters joined forces for one strike.
Its power is enough to change the very fabric of heaven and earth.
Beneath the city wall, all the imperial guards and civil and military officials who witnessed this scene were terrified, their faces ashen and their hearts pounding with fear.
However, Lin Hanzhou, standing atop the city wall, maintained his calm and unwavering expression.
"Well done!"
He gave a low shout, and the long sword in his hand finally moved.
Instead of directly confronting the domineering axe beam, he used his movement technique, leaving a faint afterimage in place.
This was the high-grade Xuan-level movement technique he had just learned—"Fleeting Light and Shadow".
His figure flashed through the gap between the axe blades and spear shadows in an instant.
In an extremely dangerous situation, we must avoid this deadly combined attack.
"Boom—!"
The terrifying axe blade struck solidly against the city tower where he had just been standing.
A deafening roar.
The city gate, built of incredibly hard black iron rock, was cleaved in half by this single axe blow.
"Such fast movement!"
Both grandmasters were surprised when their attacks missed.
But how rich their combat experience is!
Before Lin Hanzhou could even get a foothold, the two launched another attack like a storm.
In an instant, all that could be seen was three streaks of light colliding together in the sky above the capital.
The terrifying power of a grandmaster constantly collides and explodes.
The entire sky was stirred up by the aftershocks of their battle, causing the wind and clouds to change color.
Lin Hanzhou unleashed the perfected Flowing Cloud Sword Technique, the sword light surging like a sea of clouds, continuously protecting himself.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
The sound of metal clashing was incessant.
Although Lin Hanzhou managed to withstand the opponent's fierce attack with his exquisite swordsmanship and movement skills.
However, he was still forced to retreat by the violent power, and his blood and qi surged within his body.
"My current level is still too low..."
Lin Hanzhou sighed inwardly.
He could sense that his swordsmanship, movement techniques, and martial arts skills were all superior to his opponent's in terms of both rank and level.
However, his opponents were, after all, two genuine peak third-tier experts, whose spiritual power far surpassed that of him, a mere third-tier first-level expert.
In a one-on-one fight, he was absolutely confident that he could kill one within a hundred moves.
But when facing two opponents, he could only barely hold on.
It's impossible to end the battle in a short time.
"No, we can't delay any longer."
Lin Hanzhou's gaze swept over the 100,000 iron cavalry below, who were beginning to stir, and his eyes turned cold.
He knew that he absolutely could not allow those 100,000 iron cavalry to storm into the city.
If they enter the city, my treasure vault will be in trouble.
"It seems we still have to pay a price."
He made up his mind and no longer hesitated.
The spiritual energy within his body began to flow in reverse in an extremely violent manner.
The low-grade Xuan-level secret technique, "Three Forms of Reversing Meridians".
This blood-burning secret technique was something he had memorized since he was on Earth.
Having been in this world for so long, he had already successfully cultivated it.
And what he was using at that moment was the most domineering of them all.
The second move – Burning Life!
"boom--!"
A terrifying power far exceeding his own limits erupted from his body.
His full head of black hair turned white at a speed visible to the naked eye.
His once youthful and handsome face instantly gained a touch of the vicissitudes of time.
He forcibly enhanced his strength by burning fifty years of his lifespan.
From the third level, first stage, it has been pushed to an unbelievable realm.
"What...what kind of evil magic is this?!"
Sensing the sudden surge in Lin Hanzhou's aura, which had increased several times over, both Grandmasters' expressions changed drastically.
However, by the time they realized what was happening, it was too late.
"die!"
Lin Hanzhou uttered a cold word.
With his strength surging, his swordplay suddenly changed.
The originally graceful and agile "Flowing Cloud Sword Technique" became extremely domineering in his hands.
Each sword strike caused the surrounding space to tremble, carrying an undeniable power.
"Pfft!"
He seized an opportunity and completely ignored the giant axe that was aimed at him.
He traded his life for injury, his sword strike, incredibly fast, piercing the heart of the grandmaster wielding the spear.
The other grandmaster was shocked to see this and wanted to go to the rescue.
But Lin Hanzhou's icy gaze had already locked onto him.
He felt as if he were being targeted by a raging beast, completely unable to move.
He hadn't felt this deep-seated fear in years.
In that instant of distraction, Lin Hanzhou turned around and, with even greater speed, slashed down with his sword.
"Pfft"
A magnificent head soared into the sky.
In the blink of an eye, the two grandmasters who were just moments before were swiftly and decisively killed by Lin Hanzhou's sword.
In the sky, the corpses of two Grandmasters fell helplessly towards the dark, imposing army below.
On the city wall, Lin Hanzhou leaned on his sword, sat on the ground, and gasped for breath.
Even with the aid of secret techniques, the ability to kill two grandmasters in a short period of time still brought him considerable burden.
His hair and beard were all white, and he looked somewhat forlorn.
But that invincible aura of dominating the world terrified the 100,000 iron cavalry below the city, leaving them utterly silent!
