Chapter 129: Measurement of Strength (3,000 Votes Plus Additional Content)
Shen Zui's heart sank. He was also well-known and had a great record of fighting. The other party dared to come to him directly, which showed that he had absolute confidence in his own strength and martial arts. Of course, it was not ruled out that he was a complete rookie, but could a rookie kill An Guoxie who had opened all nine orifices?
Even if he had helpers with similar strength, it would not work!
At this time, the other two resting horse bandits also came out of the tent, one holding a knife and the other holding a sword. The knife was an ordinary saber and the sword was a narrow long sword with two deep blood grooves on it.
Meng Qi "greeted" and rushed over like a chariot without waiting for Shen Zui to speak. The Red Sun Demon Sword was raised and Shen Zui and one of the horse bandits were trapped in it. The knife light rolled, and each knife was faster than the other. Sometimes it was fierce, sometimes weird, sometimes exquisite, and sometimes simple. He displayed his own knife skills to the fullest.
Gu Changqing stabbed with his long sword and took over another horse bandit. He had superb sword skills and strictly guarded the gate. He waited for himself to be undefeated before seeking to defeat the opponent.
Among the two people who fought with Meng Qi, the knife-wielding horse bandit was completely stunned by the storm-like attack. He felt that the opponent's swords might appear in all directions and anywhere. He was unable to defend himself and was difficult to resist. He had no way to use the killing sword skills he had honed in actual combat. He could only defend himself in a hurry.
Fortunately, Shen Zui was by his side. He held a long sword that looked ordinary, but it seemed to contain a layer of blood stains. The sword was round and guarded tightly. It was a sword technique derived from Tai Chi swordsmanship.
Ding Ding Dang Dang, after a series of collisions, Shen Zui roughly figured out Meng Qi's sword skills and suddenly raised his long sword.
This sword seemed slow, like a heavy object, but it was mysterious. It was launched later but arrived first. With a ding, it stabbed on Meng Qi's blade, causing his sword to stagnate.
Shen Zui's eyesight and hearing were fully demonstrated in this sword.
Meng Qi initially wanted to make a quick decision and rely on the Golden Bell Cover to break through Shen Zui's defense line, but Shen Zui's swordsmanship was always aimed at the common key points of horizontal training kung fu, such as the center of the eyebrows, eyes, throat, temples, and lower genitals. It was obvious that he was experienced in the martial arts world and took precautions before it happened. Therefore, Meng Qi's wish to catch him off guard failed. He simply calmed down, eliminated his impetuousness, and let him "sharpen" the knife.
The knife was interrupted, and Meng Qi saw Shen Zui's swordsmanship change, like a rolling tide, continuously attacking, forcing him to do his best to defend.
He is worthy of being a long-established master of six orifices!
Meng Qi secretly praised and decided to eliminate the hidden dangers first. Facing Shen Zui's long sword, he suddenly crossed to the left.
Shen Zui's long sword turned and stabbed to the left smoothly and seamlessly, as if waiting for Meng Qi to hit it with the center of his eyebrows.
But Meng Qi tapped his left foot, slid his right foot, and suddenly stepped back, out of the range of Shen Zui's long sword, and directly hit the horse bandit who was coming from behind with a knife.
The horse bandit had never expected Meng Qi to attack from the "back", and the saber could not be stopped, and directly slashed on his back, cutting through his clothes, cutting a layer of dark gold, and cutting a shallow wound.
Then he felt that the saber seemed to be clamped by the opponent's muscles, unable to move an inch, and the dark gold bloomed, and a strong force came, and the opponent brought his own saber and crashed into his arms, and the ring knife turned upside down and penetrated into his chest and abdomen.
The dark red knife light flashed, and Meng Qi slipped and dodged Shen Zui's long sword that was chasing him like a shadow.
The horse bandit with four orifices opened covered his chest and abdomen, fell softly to the ground, blood gushed out, and intestines fell out.
Shen Zui's eyes were red with anger. His sword skills changed again, no longer like a continuous tide, but like a raging sea, one wave higher than the other. Meng Qi's sword skills after mastering them were fully displayed, but he could only maintain them with difficulty. After all, his sword skills, except for those exquisite changes derived from "Duan Qingjing", were only at the level of the Qi Accumulation Period. Although they had their own characteristics, they were not the superior sword skills of the Awakening Period.
Therefore, even if he mastered them, Meng Qi could not be said to have outstanding sword skills in the Awakening Period. Facing Shen Zui, an enemy with exquisite sword skills, he was immediately dwarfed - Shen Zui's sword skills seemed to be all superior sword skills in the Awakening Period.
Meng Qi derived from Duan Qingjing's changes, and added a few new changes from Luo Hongchen. Under such tempering, he became more and more mature. He could always have a long-lasting charm when swinging horizontally and diagonally, and break the "waves". Given time, Meng Qi might be able to touch the "principle" in the sword skills like Jiang Zhiwei, and thus turn decay into magic.
Of course, it is unknown how long it will take. Facing Shen Zui's increasingly terrifying swordsmanship, Meng Qi put away his intention to "sharpen his sword" and planned to fight quickly. If he continued to fight like this, he would be exposed if he was not careful. Whether he was seriously injured by Shen Zui or let him escape, he would be extremely upset. Why didn't he try his best earlier?
However, after this battle, Meng Qi probably understood his current strength level. Without using special moves and auxiliary means, he was probably equivalent to a six-orifice master with not good moves, inferior to Shen Zui. If he used auxiliary means and special moves, he could also kill a seven-orifice master. For the eight-orifice, it depends on the right time, place and people. In nine out of ten cases, he can only hurt the opponent and escape. After all, after opening the six orifices, the illusion created by the illusion method is basically ineffective-when the opponent is prepared.
However, if you ignore the losses and consequences and burst out for a short time, that is another matter.
Moreover, after the fifth level is successfully closed, there will be one or two fewer weaknesses, and the battle will be more powerful!
Just as Meng Qi was about to activate his illusion technique to end the battle quickly, Shen Zui seemed to have made up his mind. A bright red flashed across his face, and he thrust his sword forward sharply. His sword skills were extremely sharp, with one sword faster than the other. He struck three times in a row, killing people and shocking their souls, like a ghost seeking souls.
Such a deadly sword technique was the only one Meng Qi had seen in his life, except for the "Yan Luo Tie" and "Sword Out of Selflessness". Fortunately, he had also seen these two moves. At this time, his mind was calm and not affected by the spirit. The sword drew a strange trajectory, full of the charm of the world.
With two clangs, Meng Qi blocked Shen Zui's two swords, but the sword was swung away, and the third sword went straight in!
Shen Zui's sword pointed directly at Meng Qi's throat, and it was fierce, covering all dodges. It seemed that there was no other way except to use the Golden Bell Cover to resist it. The throat was a weak point, so how much damage reduction effect it could have was another matter.
But at this moment, Meng Qi pulled his left hand, the sword light lit up, and with a clang, it blocked the side of Shen Zui's long sword, deflected it, and pierced into the shoulder.
The dark gold was deep, and the long sword was like hitting rotten wood, making a puffing sound, but it did not go much deeper.
Meng Qi felt the blood from his wounds all rushing to his sword, his blood boiling, and he almost failed to avoid Shen Zui's follow-up palm. Fortunately, Shen Xing Bai Bian was best at this kind of small moves.
Taking a step back, Meng Qi swung his long sword and counterattacked Shen Zui. It's rude not to return the favor!
His eyebrows swelled, his spirit was released, but it was condensed like a thorn, and he stabbed Shen Zui's head fiercely.
Shen Zui knew that he had killed An Guoxie, and it was impossible for him not to be fully alert to him. He was also a master who had opened the six orifices. In this case, the illusion method could not create illusions-An Guoxie was fooled for the first time because he despised Meng Qi, a little monk who had not yet opened his mind.
However, the illusion method not only creates illusions, but also has the function of hiding one's actions. Direct mental attack is one of its important methods!
Of course, this is not as good as the effect of Su Yuanying's evil eye between his eyebrows. At most, it can cause a little fainting, but in a situation where the two sides are almost evenly matched, a little fainting is enough!
Although Shen Zui's desperate moves failed to achieve the expected effect, he was still confident in facing Meng Qi's sword, and he would find another opportunity to escape.
He swung his long sword and tried to block the sword, but at this moment, he felt a pain in his brow, his head was dizzy, and his hands slowed down.
The sword was bent as expected, knocking his long sword away.
Shen Zui's eyes went dark, and then he woke up, but everything was completely different. He was good at swordsmanship, and his strength was greatly reduced with bare hands, and the opponent was Meng Qi, who was getting braver and sharper with a sword.
Soon, Meng Qi realized that his palm power was not as good as his sword, so he exposed a flaw and used the not-so-important Tanzhong weakness to take Shen Zui's palm, and put the sword on his neck - if it was a sharp sword, Meng Qi would not dare to use this weakness that was almost not a weakness to resist.
While Shen Zui was hesitating whether to surrender or "commit suicide", Meng Qi dropped his long sword in his left hand, flicked his five fingers, and performed the Melting Snow Acupoint Hand to seal all the acupoints on his chest.
The Kaiqiao horse bandit on the other side was already at a disadvantage, and when he saw Shen Zui being captured, he was even more panicked. Gu Changqing seized the flaw and stabbed him.
Meng Qi pulled out his sword and knocked out Shen Zui's upper teeth, fearing that he would bite his tongue to commit suicide, and then smiled and said: "Big brother, where did my little junior brother go after Che Lie Gorge?"
The description of Zhenhui's appearance, personality and ability to deal with things was so consistent that these horse bandits must have seen Zhenhui, but there was no evil knife hunting order at that time, and it was meaningless for them to rob a little monk who needed to beg for alms.
"Can I not die if I say so?" Shen Zui said with his teeth leaking.
Meng Qi said expressionlessly: "No, big brother, when you robbed the caravan, did you give them a chance to live in order to eliminate the clues?"
Shen Zui said nothing.
Meng Qi suddenly laughed: "Actually, I'm not such a righteous person, but if you live, my whereabouts will be exposed, so you have to die."
He changed the subject: "But there are many ways to die, some are painless, some are humiliated, which one do you want to choose?"
The sincere words were told slowly, and Shen Zui felt a strange persuasiveness in his heart. You see, he said so honestly that he would definitely kill you, so what he said later must be true, and he would not lie to you.
Meng Qi pointed at Gu Changqing who was on guard next to him, and said with a strange smile: "My friend likes male beauty the most. Da Dangzi is just over 40 years old, has a good figure, and has a refined temperament and appearance. He has been itching for a long time. I wonder if Da Dangzi is willing to give it a try?"
Shen Zui's face turned pale when he heard it. He had enjoyed half of his life, and he couldn't bear such humiliation before his death, so he stammered: "I, I say."
When Gu Changqing listened, he first glared at Meng Qi fiercely. He actually made up bad things about himself to scare people!
But as he listened, he turned to look at Shen Zui... "Ugh," he covered his mouth and went to the side to retch.
This guy's psychological endurance is not good, luckily Shen Zui was lying down and couldn't see... Meng Qi smiled and glanced at Gu Changqing.
