Chapter 32 Fierce Battle!
Chapter 32 Fierce Battle!
"!!"
Guo Fenglin felt the spear had struck him, but Zhao An was completely unharmed!
It was too late. The long sword slashed across the ground in a crescent shape, cutting from left to right!
With a surge of adrenaline, his enormous head was thrown out.
Zhao An took another breath and turned around to fight Guo Fenglin, who was holding a gun.
Even though this person was seriously injured, his strength was still far superior to his!
His skill with a long spear is quite impressive, displaying a domineering and invincible presence, reminiscent of a battlefield warrior!
His internal energy strength almost completely overwhelmed him!
Zhao An roughly estimated that the opponent's internal energy level was probably over five hundred strands, which made it impossible for him to fight him head-on.
He was already in grave danger after being shot by the enemy.
Zhao An took a deep breath; the closer he got to the crisis, the calmer he became.
With his current strength, he can't win this battle!
They immediately seized an opportunity to quickly create distance.
Meanwhile, in the Soul Pool, three Soul Slaves were practicing their sword skills together.
The enslavement period for these three soul slaves is not yet over; the harvest will not be ready until at least the day after tomorrow.
But he couldn't wait any longer.
With a slight thought, he grabbed the three soul slaves and refined them in an instant!
The three karmic fruits were integrated and extracted, along with a wealth of knife skills insights and year-after-year initiations.
Zhao An's mind was not confused; on the contrary, his eyes shone brightly, and he was like a peerless sword drawn from its sheath!
It also resembles a fierce tiger treading the mountain!
My energy and spirit have changed at this moment!
Guo Fenglin, holding his gun, glanced around without giving it much thought, and continued thrusting forward.
The spear hurtled through the air with a chilling sound, its momentum like a charging horde of iron cavalry, breathtaking to behold.
Zhao An endured the 'hunger' in his body, knowing that rashly extracting karmic fruits would quickly deplete his body. Without medicinal soup and meat to replenish his body, he could not hold on for long.
This battle cannot be delayed!
He took the initiative to meet them, and drew his long sword!
clang!
As the metal clashed, Guo Fenglin's inner energy surged forth and coalesced on the iron spear.
However, Zhao An used his superb swordsmanship to forcefully deflect the force, without sustaining any injury. He then flipped over and delivered another heavy slash straight at Zhao An's face.
Roar!
The intent of the blade was revealed, and a tiger's roar echoed through the mountains and forests, striking Guo Fenglin's ears and giving him a jolt.
He raised his gun to parry and used his internal energy to defend himself, but he still felt that Zhao An's knife strike was powerful and heavy.
Despite his superior internal energy, this strike almost caused him to lose his footing and nearly knock him to the ground!
With a breath still lingering in his chest, Zhao An drew his blade, the cold light of which quickly merged into a blur, showering his opponent with its edge.
"This kid was actually holding back!"
Zhao An's swordsmanship had now reached its peak, with no flaws whatsoever!
A masterful and perfect swordsmanship can be easily recognized by an expert!
Even Zhao An himself did not expect that the combined results of the three soul slaves' sword training would allow him to directly achieve the Fierce Tiger Sword Technique at a critical moment!
"This child is at most twenty years old, yet he has mastered a sword technique to perfection! Could it be that he started practicing it in the womb?!"
Guo Fenglin found it all very mysterious, but he had no choice but to think about it further.
The situation is changing rapidly. His internal energy is strong, but his moves can always be countered by Zhao An's flawless swordsmanship.
For a time, he was helpless against Zhao An.
Most importantly, he can't afford to delay.
His injuries were worsening; he was losing too much blood and was expending a lot of energy.
If this goes on for too long, there's no guarantee he won't be worn down to death by this kid.
Amidst the flying sand and stones in the courtyard, Guo Fenglin seized an opportunity and fiercely drew his gun.
"Overlord Spear!"
This shot embodies most of his spirit and energy; it can pierce through heavy armor and shields! It can also overturn chariots and warhorses!
The spear's momentum was as powerful as a thousand troops marching across the land, possessing the might to shake mountains!
This shot will surely make this kid pay with his life!
The scene he had imagined—a bullet piercing Zhao An's body and him pinned to the ground—did not occur.
The eerie shadow on Zhao An's body reappeared, blocking the shot for him.
At the same time, Zhao An's knife pierced Guo Fenglin's chest.
The sandstorm that had been blowing up in the courtyard subsided at that moment.
"You little brat, you're weird..." Guo Fenglin spat out blood, his eyes bloodshot, staring at Zhao An, and said in a hoarse voice.
It was indeed bizarre; the soul slave's substitution was equivalent to giving Zhao An several more lives to fight this person.
"I never thought I'd die..."
Before Guo Fenglin could finish speaking, Zhao An twisted his knife and shattered his heart, silencing him completely.
When Zhao An finally got hold of Guo Fenglin's soul, he realized that Zhao An was far more sinister than he had imagined!
Zhao An ignored the meaningless thought of winning unfairly; he was currently so hungry that he wished he could devour the flesh and blood in front of him.
Fortunately, he still had some sense and managed to suppress his impulse before pushing open the inner room.
Meng Wanyi was originally peering through the crack in the door, feeling anxious for Zhao An.
Suddenly, a strong, fishy gust of wind rushed in, and Zhao An bumped right into him, looking extremely anxious.
"Do you have any pills to replenish blood and boost energy?" Zhao An asked immediately.
He couldn't wait for the Crimson Blood Root to be brewed into a medicinal soup; only readily available pills could solve the deficiency in his body.
"Yes, I have Earth Origin Pills." Meng Wanyi quickly took out her medicine box, took out a small medicine bottle, and stuffed it directly into Zhao An's hand.
There were seven Earth Origin Pills in the medicine bottle, all of which were of superior quality.
Given the female doctor's past reputation for being stingy and greedy, she certainly wouldn't have given away the elixir so easily.
You should know that these seven top-grade Earth Origin Pills are worth more than a hundred taels of silver!
But today, for some reason, she immediately sensed Zhao An's urgency, and her tone revealed a hint of weakness and longing.
This was something Zhao An, who was usually calm and composed, had never done before.
"Is this enough? If not, I'll go back to the clinic to get more; they have more there!" Meng Wanyi asked.
"That's enough!" Zhao An's eyes lit up, and without hesitation, he poured out two Earth Origin Pills, put them directly into his mouth, chewed them, and swallowed them.
"Oh dear, even a martial arts master couldn't withstand such a dose!" Meng Shao exclaimed in surprise.
However, after a moment, Zhao An swallowed two more pills, leaving the two female doctors stunned.
This was the first time they had ever seen someone eat Earth Essence Pills like candy.
After swallowing four Earth Origin Pills, the pure medicinal power of superior quality circulated continuously within the body.
Zhao An's body felt like a piece of red-hot copper and iron, with heat rising up and sweat turning into steam, billowing out in waves.
Under the powerful effects of the medicine, his strength increased, and the internal energy in his meridians began to circulate throughout his body, with new energy being generated in the process.
One strand, five strands, ten strands...
To Zhao An's surprise, this time he gained more than sixty strands of new internal energy!
This is partly due to the fact that he absorbed three soul slaves at the same time, which combined to form the result of a full fifteen years of cultivation.
However, Soul Slaves are not very efficient at cultivating their inner energy. Based on past experience, normally this wave of cultivation would only increase their inner energy by about thirty or forty strands.
The increase of more than sixty strands of internal energy at once was unprecedented.
"It's because of this Earth Origin Pill," Zhao An deduced, looking at the small medicine bottle in his hand.
The Earth Origin Pill is a genuine martial arts cultivation elixir, specifically designed for internal energy cultivation.
It has a strong effect on internal growth.
The cheap blood-root decoction he usually took had absolutely no effect in this regard.
"When receiving the cultivation results of the Soul Slave, consuming the more expensive Earth Origin Pill can greatly help increase internal energy."
This discovery was a pleasant surprise.
After this battle, he realized how vast the world was and how many powerful figures there were on the path of martial arts!
His skills are far from impressive; he urgently needs to accelerate his improvement!
