If Qin Wushuang did not have that superior concealing technique, he most likely would have been exposed by the other party.
Since the enemy was sure that he was close, sooner or later he would find him. Qin Wushuang waited patiently. It was not because he did not want to reveal himself, but he planned to launch a surprise attack.
Standing among the tall grass, the man dressed in black clothing suddenly twitched his mouth and showed a trace of a strange smile. He gnawed his lips and started talking.
“Ji li hu lu, gu du ba lei…”
Each syllabus of the word sounded simple. It seemed more like a strange chant and not a human language.
At most, it would only be the ancient human language. It looked similar to uttering a sound, and one could not understand at all.
Inwardly, Qin Wushuang knew something far from reassuring would happen when he saw his strange expression.
Soon, Qin Wushuang only heard a trembling noise like the sound of drizzling rain hitting the grass off as if many reptiles traveling across the grassland.
As an ominous thought flashed across, Qin Wushuang glanced around, and the hairs of his entire body almost stood straight up.
Snakes!
Flat-headed, pointy-headed, triangle headed, round-headed — all sorts of different kinds of colorful poisonous snakes…
A fantastic oddity of every description of poisonous snakes rushed out from all around as if they were having a grand family gathering.
Weird!
Qin Wushuang immediately realized that it must be related to the creepy words chanted by the man in black.
Could it be the enchantment of that guy had lured out the deadly creatures? Indeed, it was incredibly strange. Although his resistance against the poisonous snakes had increased tremendously, it would create some hassle when dealing this big number.
Qin Wushuang knew that this guy was using the poisonous snakes to search for him.
When he thought here, Qin Wushuang sent out a wave of Middle Rushing Sword. Chi!
Directly, it shot to a place that was thirty meters away from him, boom!
Instantly, a giant tree was felled by the power of this sword. Hearing the sound, that man in black clothes looked around with a happy face. He gave a sharp whistle to summon those two vultures. Next, he also rushed towards the area where the sound had come from.
He raised his hand and with a brushing sound, a dozen snakes shot out in a conical area with incredible force like meteors.
After sending out the snakes, that man in black did not stay still. He turned his body, and a long snake shaped whip appeared in his hand. As the strap wrapped around his wrist, it’s trembling figure was like the dance of a silver dragon and the spitting of the snakes. Then, he also charged towards the location.
The snake shaped whip was a kind of soft weapon.
If not used well, it was easy to hurt the body of the wielder. If used well, it would become hard to fathom and difficult to deal with. Obviously, from the movements of this man in black, he was a master.
The top of this snake shaped whip was a dart that had the strongest attack power. It could pierce, whip, wrap, bind and possessed a variety of other uses.
When the man in black threw out this whip attack, he had hidden a powerful fatal attack behind it. If he could not hit the enemy at once, he only needed to shake out his hand and change the attack into a binding rope.
If he did hit the target, he could change it to pierce and take their life.
Only, his move was somewhat blind. Not to mention that Qin Wushuang was not there, even if he were there, he would not have waited for the enemy to attack him.
The man in black had acted with such bold actions because he had two Flaming Cloud vultures behind him. They completely relieved his worries of attacks from behind even if someone launched a sneak attack.
Only, Qin Wushuang’s location was on his right side.
As he watched the figure of the man in black charging over, Qin Wushuang calculated the distance.
“One hundred meters, fifty, thirty…”
He shook his wrist, and the Upper Sky combat blade flew out from his hand like a brilliant star.
He had acquired this sword from Li Wuji. Qin Wushuang was not a master of sword techniques. However, he could still easily use the blade as a concealed weapon.
Besides, he could not use the blade as masterfully as those grand blademasters. In fact, he had learned many sword techniques. However these moves were less proficient as Li Wuji’s <Thunder and Wind Blade Technique>.
Whoosh!
The flash of the blade was a wave of white light.
The man in black had apparently felt the ripple from the Upper Sky weapon and made a judgment on where the attack had come from. As if it were an actual spiritual snake, he shook the snake shaped whip and turned it to wrap toward that Upper Sky blade.
At this time, those two Flaming Cloud vulture charged over from his back.
Both of them let out a sharp whistle. They both dashed down to attack with both of their claws when they saw Qin Wushuang throwing his weapon.
Qin Wushuang was overjoyed. He had used that Upper Sky blade to attack that man in black because he lacked a better concealed weapon.
After all, this battle blade was in the Upper Sky ranking. With its power, it would increase the effect of a sneak attack.
Unexpectedly, these two evil creatures had dashed down directly when they saw he had no weapon. How could he not be happy when they wanted to fight with him empty-handed?
For your information, he had experience in dealing with one of the vultures. He had a tough time because that cunning vulture had refused to come down to enter his attack zone.
In a flint of stone, he already understood the reason.
“Most Upper Sky Warriors would have to carry a weapon with them to work in the combination of their power. And since I threw out that blade, for sure, those two evil creatures thought I have no more weapons and am incapable of posing a threat…”
When he thought here, feeling euphoric inside, he moved his feet and moved forward.
He must maintain the illusion in order to lower the vigilance of these two evil creatures.
No sooner said than done.
Indeed, the full charge from these two Flame Cloud Vultures was extraordinarily fast. In the blink of an eye, they rushed right before him and immediately started to claw towards Qin Wushuang’s head.
Qin Wushuang immediately stopped his body and dodged.
Not only he did not escape, but he was also charging forward. In a flash, he gently extended his arms. Both left and right hand made the same gesture with the thumb pushing forward. Next, like two giant torrents, the Young Shang Sword left his hands and dashed out from the tip of the thumb.
These two moves were too fast.
Without any stopping motion, the movements from jumping to stopping, then to counter attack had been done in one breath. The effect was outstanding.
Within ten meters, it would be a pipe dream if one wanted to evade the attack from the <Coagulated Sword>. Even two Spiritual Beasts could not have such fast reaction speed.
Among the <Coagulated Sword> technique, the speed of the thunder-like Young Shang Sword was almost equivalent to lightning. When the torrent dashed out, if one had not intended to block it beforehand, they would never have enough time to react within five or six meters.
The only exception was if these two Spiritual Beasts knew how to transport in a flash. Unfortunately, they could not!
Under the circumstances where they had been caught in a total surprise, the sword intent hit their fatal points accompanied by two miserable screeches at almost the same time. Then, they fell to the ground.
At this moment, that man in black had just grabbed the blade.
In this blink of an eye, his left and right hand had gotten killed by the enemy. The pupil of that man in black even shrank.
A wave of coldness gushed out from his entire body as he glared at Qin Wushuang. He realized that he was facing a powerful enemy!
“You have killed three of my Flame Cloud Vultures! My only three vultures!”
The tone of that man in black was filled with sadness. It was as if it weren’t three vultures that had died, but his three siblings.
Qin Wushuang stood on top of a big tree. He must occupy the altitude due to that large number of poisonous snakes on the ground. Any of them could serve as a distraction to him during the battle.
He would not wish to get distracted by outside forces in this fight.
Now, after killing those two Spiritual Beasts, the chance for Qin Wushuang to win this battle had increased tremendously.
Hu!
Suddenly, Qin Wushuang laughed and flashed backward with his lightning like figure.
It was his strategy. He must find the most advantageous environment for the battle. Since that man in black was full of mysteries, the current location would still not work to his favor.
Only constant changes and aiming to change would allow him to grasp the upper hand.
Without letting the feet touching the ground, he flew alongside the thick forest rapidly.
Of course, that man in black would never allow Qin Wushuang to escape. He also followed him behind with his soft whip. Now, even giving away all the world’s water could not wash away his hatred to Qin Wushuang.
When Qin Wushuang raised his head to look ahead of him, he saw a pile of mossy rocks. The terrain of this place was incredibly strange like sharp knives in which each hard rocks criss-crossed with each other.
However, there was one advantage to it. Nothing grew here.
“Here!” Qin Wushuang jumped with the tip of his feet to borrow force from a few giant rocks. Then, he stopped at a huge rock that was a dozen meters high.
There were high mountains ahead of him, and on the other side was a sheer cliff. Such terrain was the most suitable for a fist fight.
While Qin Wushuang had stopped, that man in black did not dare to slow down. Despite his hatred toward him, he knew the enemy before him was not easy to deal with.
“No more escape?” The man in black let his overflowing anger out without concealing it.
Qin Wushuang twitched the corner of his mouth and smiled lightly: “Who said I was escaping?”
“If not, then why are you running away like a lost dog?” That man in black mocked him.
“I only wanted to find the right place for your burial!”
“Hmph, you got a big mouth!” That man in black laughed, “You think you can say whatever you wanted after killing two of my Spiritual Beasts?”
Qin Wushuang’s face turned cold: “I have no time to talk nonsense with you. It seems that you are not a student to the Star Gauze Palace. You brought out those Spiritual Beasts to use them as a lure to fish for students in the Star Gauze Palace’s territory?”
That man in black sneered: “What about it? Kid, just blame your luck for your miserable life!”
After he had finished, he swung his arm and sent a few ripples over the sky to cover towards Qin Wushuang’s head.
Qin Wushuang moved his feet andhis body disappeared from where had been standing.
Directly, with a boom, that soft whip hit the giant rock that he was standing on before.
Instantly, the top of the giant rock was cut off!
