Chapter 173 The Fear of Death

——Thanks to friends like Fried Potato, Lemon Prawn, and Oceanpop for their tips.

The only feasible one is the Tai Chi Diagram, but it is suppressed by Shura Blood Blade and cannot be turned from defense to offense.

When Shi Xuan chose his natal magic weapon, he chose the Yin Yang Two Qi Bottle, a powerful auxiliary magic weapon, because he considered that the Tai Chi Diagram was an attack and defense magic weapon. Now he found that he had thought a little wrong. The so-called attack and defense means that it can attack and defend, but it is definitely not both at the same time, especially in this suppressed situation.

If Shi Xuan transforms the Tai Chi Diagram into a Yin Yang Fish, then as long as the Yin Yang Two Qi cannot hit Duan Wuqing, Shi Xuan will not be able to block Duan Wuqing's next fierce counterattack. After all, it takes one or two breaths for the Yin Yang Fish to turn into a golden bridge. If he can't avoid it, it will be enough for Duan Wuqing to cut Shi Xuan three or four times.

So Shi Xuan now has some regrets. If he had chosen the flying sword or the fairy clothes, he would not be so passive now. However, this emotion is not strong. After all, if he did not have the Yin-Yang Qi Bottle, he would have been defeated by Yang Fei long ago. Yang Fei is more than ten times more powerful than Duan Wuqing. His Chixiao Sword can break the defense of the Tai Chi Diagram with one strike. If he had not been blocked by the Yin-Yang Qi Bottle, Shi Xuan would definitely be in more danger than now. If the Yin-Yang Qi Bottle had reached the Lingbao stage, as long as Duan Wuqing was talking to him, he would be absorbed.

While resisting the attack of Shura Blood Knife, Shi Xuan had a flash of thoughts. He must create an opportunity for his own Taoist magic to be used.

Duan Wuqing's desperate fighting style relies on the Blood Shadow Divine Art. No matter how badly he is injured, as long as he is not dead, he can recover afterwards. But now that he has some concerns, Duan Wuqing decided to continue his psychological warfare: "No other good magic weapon? Fellow Daoist Shi, look, Duan has only this one life blood knife, and it still suppresses you. So, it is better to be good at one thing and focus on one thing." He said something that seemed to be true, wanting Shi Xuan to distract himself to think about enlightenment. In fact, if his cultivation level was not higher than Shi Xuan's, and his life magic weapon had not been sacrificed for a longer time, the Shura Blood Knife really could not suppress Shi Xuan.

Shi Xuan did not consider the opponent's words at all during the fight, and still held on to the Golden Bridge on the Other Shore. A risky idea gradually emerged in his mind, but if he did not take a risk and slowly consumed it, once the Golden Bridge on the Other Shore was broken, Shi Xuan could only choose to die with Duan Wuqing. You should know that Duan Wuqing's Blood Shadow Dark Light Escape is of the light attribute, which can be ranked in the top five among the escape techniques, and it is obvious that the level of cultivation is higher than Shi Xuan's Xiaoyou Qingfeng Escape.

Seeing that Shi Xuan was not affected, Duan Wuqing changed his sword technique and suddenly turned into a blood-colored waterfall and appeared above Shi Xuan's head. The blood-colored sword light hit the thousands of rays of light emitted by Shi Xuan's Golden Bridge on the other side like raindrops. It was the fifth path of the Ghost God Blood Rain of the Sword Technique of Slaying Ghosts and Gods.

Under the strong and rapid attack, the golden light emitted by the Golden Bridge on the other side gradually dimmed and shrank. Duan Wuqing was delighted to see that this move was effective, and continued to perform the Ghost God Blood Rain. After a while, the golden light of Shi Xuan's Golden Bridge on the other side could only stick to his body.

This was Shi Xuan's intention. He wanted to take the risk of the Golden Bridge on the other side being broken when it shrank, let Duan Wuqing get within five feet, and then lock him with Taoism. Even if he couldn't kill him, he had to seriously injure him and buy a chance for himself to escape.

But Duan Wuqing's style today was very different from what Shi Xuan had heard before. Even in this situation, Duan Wuqing was very flexible. When using Ghost God Blood Rain, Duan Wuqing did not stay in one place for more than half a breath. Even when he did not pursue such great power and speed, Duan Wuqing did not merge with the sword light most of the time, but controlled the Shura Blood Sword nearly a hundred feet away.

Shi Xuan had no choice but to make up his mind. The golden bridge on the other side made a slight sound, and the golden light became very dim, then quickly shrank and flew into the dantian.

Duan Wuqing saw this good opportunity and naturally merged the blood-colored sword light with his body. As the sword force increased, he chopped towards Shi Xuan. This sword was like a flying goose from the sky, extremely fast.

Shi Xuan was very calm at this time. Thanks to the experience of more than two years, his spiritual cultivation has greatly increased. Now he is calm and peaceful. Duan Wuqing's sword was clearly reflected in Shi Xuan's mind.

Ten feet, eight feet... six feet, five feet, four feet. Seeing that the Shura Blood Sword was about to hit Shi Xuan, the seemingly broken Golden Bridge on the other side re-emerged from Shi Xuan's Dantian, spanning the void and landing on the Shura Blood Sword.

The wind stopped, the sound disappeared, and the Shura Blood Sword was fixed again. Shi Xuan looked at the figure that appeared behind the knife light, opened his mouth, and the purple-blue virtual fire sprayed straight over.

At this moment, Shi Xuan saw a trace of sneer on Duan Wuqing's face, and then saw a blood-colored small flag appear in front of his body at some point, emitting countless blood lights. When it was touched by the virtual fire, it began to burn violently. Although the strength was immediately judged, this small flag actually blocked the virtual fire. Then Duan Wuqing waved his hand nonchalantly, and the blood-colored small flag flew far away with purple-blue flames and fell on the snow, until it burned a large scorched pit in the area of ​​100 feet, and then it went out.

Shi Xuan's heart sank when his attack missed, knowing that he had underestimated this true disciple of the Blood Demon Sect. However, seeing that Duan Wuqing seemed to be getting too proud of himself and the Shura Blood Blade seemed to be about to break free from the golden bridge on the other side, he did not hesitate and a beam of white light flew out of his nostrils again, shooting towards Duan Wuqing's head like lightning.

Duan Wuqing didn't expect that he would be punished for his momentary complacency, but as a true disciple of a major sect, how could he not have some trump cards, such as the blood-colored small flag just now. At this time, he opened his mouth at the most dangerous moment, and a small snake-like black shadow flew out of it. As soon as it came into contact with the air, it began to emit green smoke, and then it collided with Shi Xuan's Gengjin sword energy and white light, and both were instantly annihilated.

Seeing that he could not succeed and did not hurt Duan Wuqing, Shi Xuan immediately pulled back the Golden Bridge on the Other Shore, letting it float above his head again to protect his body. Now he could only find another opportunity to use the Yin and Yang Qi to injure Duan Wuqing before escaping. As expected, Duan Wuqing immediately launched a fierce attack, and the blood-colored knife light turned into an arc shape, constantly slashing at Shi Xuan.

Shi Xuan could only hold on hard, and for a moment, the situation just now returned.

"Hmph, don't think you're the only one who has Taoist magic and secret treasures. Although Duan disdains to use other magic tools and talismans, he still has some Taoist magic and secret treasures. Now I'll teach you a lesson. Don't treat the true disciples of other sects as ordinary soul-level cultivators!" Although Duan Wuqing was still talking, his emotions became more and more fierce. This was the influence of the practice, and it was not something that his spiritual cultivation at this level could completely overcome.

Shi Xuan didn't say anything either, knowing that there were some opportunities to take advantage of. The fierce Duan Wuqing would reveal more flaws than the leisurely Duan Wuqing. So, Shi Xuan used all his strength to circulate his true energy and firmly fixed the Golden Bridge on the other side above his head, preventing the bloody knife light from crossing the line. Even if he had to wait for an opportunity, he had to survive this wave of attacks, otherwise the dead didn't need a chance.

Duan Wuqing was unable to defeat the enemy for a long time, and his mood became more and more impatient. In addition, he almost died at the hands of Shi Xuan, and lost a hard-won secret treasure, a secret treasure that could be hidden in the body like a life-long magic weapon and suddenly hurt people. He just saved the situation. With heartache, he could no longer control his emotions. Suddenly, he let out a long roar, and his sword technique changed again. The blood-colored sword light turned into a long dragon, and slashed at Shi Xuan. It was the tenth move of the sword technique of beheading ghosts and slaughtering gods, which was to swallow gods and devour ghosts.

In this attack, Duan Wuqing restored his own fighting style, completely ignoring the Wanxiang Wuying Sword that Shi Xuan was holding outside. As long as it was not aimed at the head, he would let it hit him. Every time Duan Wuqing was hit, Duan Wuqing's sword technique became more and more fierce.

This powerful sword technique that overwhelmed people made Shi Xuan feel that the golden bridge on the other side was shaky, as if it would be broken in the next moment, making Shi Xuan feel the long-lost fear of death. Although his heart was still as calm as water, it did not prevent Shi Xuan from tasting this fear.

I can't wait any longer. If I continue like this, Duan Wuqing will be even more powerful. I might not even have a chance to fight back. Shi Xuan is a decisive person. He immediately activated the Broken Jade Art in his body. The Golden Bridge on the Other Shore suddenly shone brightly, forcing the Shura Blood Blade out dozens of feet. Then it shook and turned into a half-human-high Yin-Yang fish, slowly turning, and the black and white energy rushed towards Duan Wuqing.

Duan Wuqing didn't check for a while, and after being forced to retreat, his emotions became even more agitated. With a flash of blood, he continued to slash at Shi Xuan regardless of anything. At the same time, dozens of strange and bloody blood lotuses floated around him, trying to block the Yin-Yang energy.

But Shi Xuan's Yin-Yang energy itself is equivalent to the power of the spiritual weapon when it was first formed, which is the level of Duan Wuqing's current Blood River Demon Lotus Taoism. But with the addition of the Broken Jade Art, the Blood River Demon Lotus only struggled for a while and turned into chaotic energy. Duan Wuqing regretted it very much. When he went to the North Pole a few years ago, he thought Shi Xuan was only in the Qi Induction Stage, but he didn't take it seriously because he relied on the powerful magic weapon. In addition, he was arrogant and thought that this was the experience given by the masters and elders in the sect to several true disciples, so he didn't have the guts to ask the sect for a few high-level Taoist talismans.

However, Duan Wuqing was fierce, not only to others but also to himself. In this situation, he still did not flinch. He used another auxiliary Taoist technique and changed the direction of the escape light slightly, avoiding the vital part of the head, allowing the Yin and Yang Qi to hit his right half of the body, while continuing to slash at Shi Xuan without stopping.

Shi Xuan watched the Qianyang True Fire Net and the Black Light of the Soul-Bewitching Banner that he had released, which were broken in one blow, and bought himself a little time to dodge, which he didn't know if it was enough. Looking at the ferocious face of Duan Wuqing when half of his body turned into nothingness, his heart was as clear as a mirror. He was going to dodge to the left at the risk of being seriously injured and continue to attack with Yin and Yang Qi.

But Duan Wuqing was not so simple, a true disciple of a big sect was not so simple, seeing Duan Wuqing's Shura Blood Blade let out a shrill cry, Shi Xuan's mind was dizzy, as if struck by lightning, his whole body was stiff, and he stood there in a daze, even if he used the supreme method to restrain his thoughts, he was too late to react, and could only watch Shura Blood Blade coming. It was the eleventh way of the sword method of killing ghosts and gods, which was to suppress the gods and capture ghosts.
