Chapter 368

The true energy fluctuations rose and fell, fell and rose again, and slowly came from the top of the mountain. The group of people walking up the mountain felt it and couldn't help but stop.

"What happened on the mountain? How did the calm true energy fluctuations become agitated again?"

Because there was still some distance and the dense leaves blocked the view, people standing on the treetops and looking up at the mountain could not see anything.

For a while, many people were suspicious and speculated, "Could it be that the first wave of people who blocked the mountain were dead, and this is the second wave?"

Someone in the crowd refuted, "Impossible, absolutely impossible! One first-grade and one second-grade must have consumed a lot to deal with the previous four first-grades. How could they force back the blockers in a short time?"

"What if the blockers are all second-grade and have poor cultivation..."

This idea was too unrealistic, so the voice became smaller and smaller as he spoke, until it was intermittent and there was no sound at all.

Someone laughed disdainfully: "Do you think others are fools? You dare to stop them even if you have poor cultivation? You have to choose the right time to joke! Besides, judging from the fluctuations of several true qi, most of them are of the first rank!"

He could sense it, and so could others. It was indeed almost the same as he said, most of them were of the first rank!

That's why these people stopped at the same time. The situation ahead is unclear, so let's wait and see, and go up after the clouds and fog are gone.

As the saying goes, there is only one life, and no matter how good the treasure is, you have to live to enjoy it!

"Let's wait for a while, it's not a wise move to go up now."

As soon as this was said, many people nodded in agreement.

"Okay! Let's wait for a while!"

"That's right, that's right!"

The face-saving person put his hands behind his back and agreed faintly: "After a night of hard work, it's good to take a rest."

"That makes sense!"

On the open space on the top of the mountain, Zhao was still struggling to hold on. As for whether there were pursuers behind him, he didn't care anymore. The current troubles have not been solved yet, how can I be distracted to take care of other things?

It is very difficult to fight one against three. There was some offensive momentum before, but it gradually disappeared as time went by. In the dilemma, Zhao Ju put most of his focus on defense. Now the winner is all on He Miaocong.

Fortunately, the Tongxuan Pill worked. Under the effect of the medicine, He Miaocong's true energy was full and his offensive was fierce, with the momentum of bamboo blooming.

The sword shadows flickered heavily, and the woman could only swing the knife to defend. The two short knives danced so tightly that water could not get in and the air was airtight. The sound of ding-dong came one after another. The true energy of the two people collided one after another, and waves of true energy fluctuations came out one after another.

Although the woman seemed to be defending tightly, anyone with a discerning eye could see at a glance that she was in a state of decline, but she was just struggling to hold on.

He Miaocong could see this, so relying on the abundant true energy, his hands moved faster and more fiercely, making the woman overwhelmed.

The key to Zhao Jiu's and his two men's breakthrough lies in He Miaocong, while the key to the four bearded men's breakthrough lies in the three of them. As long as He Miaocong can take down the woman, everything will be declared over and all their previous efforts will be wasted; on the contrary, as long as the three of them can take down Zhao Jiu, the outcome will be rewritten.

Now the two sides are competing in speed, and it depends on who can take down one of the other party first.

After thinking it through, the three people's offensive became more frequent, even if they exchanged injuries for injuries, they continued to attack, without any sign of stopping.

The opponent's attack frequency increased, and Zhao Jiu's defense frequency also increased. The four people on both sides kept colliding with their true qi, and their hands moved faster and faster, all holding their breath.

One side wanted to delay time, and the other side intended to solve it as soon as possible, so it was natural that the confrontation continued.

"Master He, you have to hurry up, I may not be able to hold on if this goes on!" Zhao Jiu felt bitter and wanted to turn his head to see the situation on He Miaocong's side, but the situation was critical and he could not afford to be distracted at all, so he had to endure it and continue to grit his teeth and persist.

The fighting continued nearby, and the true qi between the two people kept rubbing and colliding. He Miaocong's sword was overwhelming, and he approached step by step. The star-like sword qi was like a drizzle from the sky, and it was constantly attached to the woman's body.

Although the woman was indecisive in her double-knife defense, her decline was becoming more and more obvious, and her steps were becoming more and more chaotic. Her face flushed, and she was struggling to hold on.

"That's it!" He Miaocong said sternly.

She made several sword strikes on the blade of the short knife, and two "ding ding" sounds were heard. The knife net woven by the woman was torn open, and her defense suddenly became stagnant.

Her face changed drastically, and she hurriedly raised her true qi to reorganize her defense. But He Miao was not a young man who had just entered the world of martial arts. She had accumulated experience in fighting and fighting enemies. How could she give her this opportunity and time?

"Drizzle!"

As the voice fell, He Miaocong's true qi was agitated, and the sword momentum changed continuously. The sword shadows pierced out densely, like continuous drizzle dripping down. The previously torn defense was opened up again.

The tip of the sword flashed with cold light, and he stabbed several times in succession, stopping the woman's short knife path. Then he stepped forward and stabbed several times, bringing out blood flowers.

"Ah!" The woman screamed in pain.

"Ah!"

After retreating several steps, the woman supported the ground with both hands, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth. Her true energy was in disarray, her face flushed red, and the scarlet blood stained her clothes.

Obviously, she had no strength to fight again.

The situation on one side changed, and it also affected the other side. The bearded man's hand movements were slightly stagnant, and the other two people's movements were also a little slow. Taking this opportunity, Zhao decisively condensed his true energy and pushed out several palms to force the three people back.

Turning back to He Miao, he shouted: "Go!"

After saying this, he did not even turn his head back, took a breath of true Qi, and lightly jumped over the three people with his toes, running down the mountain. And He Miaocong did not hesitate either, and directly performed Qinggong to catch up with Zhao Jiu.

The two of them ran northward without looking back, one in front and one behind.

"Should we chase them?" The sinister man asked unwillingly with gritted teeth.

"No, not!" The bearded man helped the woman up and shouted helplessly.

Then he explained faintly: "We injured one person, and we can't beat them even if we chase them, so... forget it."

The two people next to him exchanged glances. Although they were unwilling, they could only sigh because things were like this.

The two people on the other side hurried their steps, without any intention of stopping, and even took a breath, they hurried past.

They were in a hurry to escape, so naturally they didn't dare to look back at the situation behind them. A fight was calmed down like this.

I don't know how far I ran, Zhao Jiu's true Qi suddenly couldn't be raised, and his feet couldn't help but soften, and he almost fell. Fortunately, He Miaocong was quick to support him.

"Master Zhao, are you okay?" He Miaocong asked with a frown.

"It's not a big deal." Zhao waved his hand.

He stood up and supported the big tree beside him. His Qi was a little messy. As he spoke, he couldn't hold back a mouthful of blood and it flowed from the corner of his mouth.

"Puff." Another mouthful of blood was spit out.

He Miaocong helped him sit under the tree. Both of them shook their heads with lingering fear and said nothing.
