Legend of Shi’En - C124
He only heard a snow-white beautiful young lady lower her head to fiddle with her clothes, just in time to glance at the man carrying the zither. Their gazes met, and the little girl’s face was completely red, and she said with a voice as thin as a mosquito: “Master said, anyone who cultivates some kind of unrivalled mystical technique will receive Heavenly Punishment s.”
“He didn’t ask you why you answered him.”
Behind the Mystery Master stood two young ladies in their twenties. Other than the shy little girl, the other one had a head of shiny black hair tied in a ponytail with narrow slits in her eyes. Her eyes were especially attractive when she squinted.
“So that’s how it is. Thank you for your explanation, Miss Xiaorong.” Hearing that, Zither Man looked at Shi En who was picking his ears with interest, “I heard that the hero of the past, ‘Jiang Nan Xiao Lang’, received a Heavenly Punishment because he cultivated some kind of peerless divine art, and became the current drunken old man, Red faced Liu Han. I didn’t think that this Wang Dachui was also a Heavenly Punisher, looks like the following Fighting Competition will be very interesting.”
“That may not be so, for the past two days, Wang Dachui has been acting normal. I’m guessing that Wang Dachui might have obtained some sort of immortal elixir or elixir.” The bearded old man truly saw through everything with a glance. He was able to see through the truth of the matter with a single glance. It was only that his guess of time was wrong.
Zither Man was surprised, “Master, I never thought that in this remote place, there would be immortal pills and elixirs, this Wang Dachui is too lucky, truly enviable.”
“Indeed, it is extremely shocking, but, sigh, this elixir of immortality, it’s the blessing of a disaster ah.” After the bearded elder said such thought-provoking words, he closed his eyes and went to rest.
“I really want to compete with Wang Dachui. I heard that Wang Dachui’s swordsmanship is profound and unfathomable, everyone who has seen it admired his swordsmanship.” Zither Man untied the guqin from his back, his hands gently strummed the zither. Suddenly, a few formless sharp swords struck towards Shi En’s direction, “Hehe, let me try, I want to see if you have the chance to be my opponent.”
The young lady with a ponytail was slightly annoyed by Zither Man’s actions, and she said in a slightly angry tone: “Hey, aren’t you making a move when no one is looking, aren’t you a little …”
“Junior Sister Xin Yue’s words are wrong. I only gave him a chance to fight with his powerful opponent. I wanted to let him know that no matter how great his swordsmanship is and how many elixirs and elixirs he has, it would not be absolute.” Zither Man smiled charmingly at the girl with a ponytail, but the latter did not respond and only watched coldly from the sidelines.
Just as Shi En was about to turn around and return to the resting area, he sensed danger from behind him. Just as he was about to pull out the wooden sword to defend himself, he heard two sounds coming from the left and right, one sound coming from a flute, the other sound colliding, and instantly shattering those formless sharp swords.
“Heh, Wang Dachui, I saved you once again. Today, continue bringing me to the Medical Group.
Bai Shatang’s clear voice came from midair, following that, his green robe fell down, and after stabilizing his body, he returned Xiao Bei who was in his hand to his waist. Immediately after, a black figure appeared on Shi En’s right, it was Iron Flute Boy. He cupped his hands towards Shi En and said: “Brother Dachui, this young one wants to repay the kindness of saving his life that day on the stage.”
“What?” Bai Shatang, wait a moment, I need to understand the situation here. You are called Iron Flute Boy, right? Shi En raised his hand to stop the annoying Bai Shatang, he turned and asked Iron Flute Boy.
“If it wasn’t for you, Brother Dachui, who stopped me last night, I might have been reduced to a great disaster and fallen into the Boundless Devil Dao from now on. So, I came to find you to repay you.”
Seeing Iron Flute Boy’s serious look, Shi En rubbed his neck, only then did he recall that last night, he really did mention something about threatening this Iron Flute Boy who had almost fallen to the Devil Dao, and immediately said with a hint of evil humor: “Um, it was an unintentional action on my part yesterday, you don’t need to do this, just give me one or two hundred silver, haha.”
He coughed a few times in embarrassment and said: “Cough cough, I spent all the silver I brought yesterday when I went out this time. This time, I have another request, and that is to borrow one or two hundred silver taels from you as an emergency measure.”
Shi En’s forehead dripped with sweat as he asked somewhat speechlessly, “Eh, how would I have the money to borrow you?”
The Iron Flute Boy did not hold back as he replied, “As long as Brother Dachui wins the final battle and obtains the prize money, then one hundred or two hundred silver taels would be nothing to you.
“Uh, okay, okay, thanks. Here’s a note.” If you win, you don’t have to return it to me. I’ll give it all to you. ” Shi En really couldn’t do anything about the Iron Flute Boy, he directly walked in front of Bai Shatang, took out a heavy money pouch from his waist, poured out 20 taels of silver and threw it at Iron Flute Boy.
Iron Flute Boy took the silver, cupped his hands, and said: “I will remember this favor! If you need to use me in the future, I, Situ Erzhao, will definitely not hesitate. ” With that, he left.
“Hey, hey, hey, Wang Dachui, what right do you have to take my money bag away? That’s my silver, what right do you have to take it away to borrow it? Facing Shi En’s blatant robbery, Bai Shatang’s eyes were filled with anger. If it was because the opponent was powerful, then any other person would have been knocked a few meters away by his attack. How could they be near him?
“Alright, alright. If I don’t go out now, I’ll be in a hurry to forget about it. Relax, I’ll return it to you in the future. Don’t be so stingy, let’s go, I’ll take you to the medical team.” Shi En shamelessly displayed his shamelessness to the extreme. Like an old brother, he rested a shoulder on Bai Shatang’s shoulders and said in a low voice: “In a few days, come find me at Yingtian Fu. I will bring you to wear a pair of glasses.
“No need, my white crane’s eyesight is better than yours.” Bai Shatang said with disdain, but he still felt a sense of joy in his heart. Suddenly, he thought of something, and became alert, and said to him in a small voice: “Wang Dachui, the person who attacked you suddenly earlier was hiding in the awning. I think, it should be the man holding the guqin.” As he spoke, he pointed with his pointed chin in the direction of the west shed.
Shi En did not look towards the west shed, but instead said indifferently: “It’s fine, anyway I’m full now, there’s a lot of people doing nothing, it’s not that they’re uninjured, just ignore him.”
Even though he said those words, who knew what he was thinking in his heart. Shi En directly brought Bai Shatang to the medical treatment group that he was in, and without needing to say anything, he spent some money to open up some connections, and because Bai Shatang was by his side, he had a bit of protection from Shi En. He was able to properly adjust his state of mind, and deal with tonight’s battle.
Tonight, the referee was still the Steward who presided over the proceedings. He stood on the Vip Desk and announced the start of the final night of the grand gamble, the ultimate Fighting Competition. On this last night, only five people were left to advance. Following a one on one battle, it meant that one of the five people would not need to undergo Fighting Competition battles and could directly advance to the next stage. Finally, after some discussion, Underground Fighting Ground decided not to use the drawing of lots for the last night.
“Guests, for the last night’s Fighting Competition, there are only five that remained to be ranked. If we were to use the method we used last night with the Fighting Competition, there will be one that will be promoted. This is not fair for other participants.” The Steward continued to speak: “That’s why after we discussed it in the upper levels of Underground Fighting Ground, we decided to change it to use the method of five people fighting together.”
“Five people fighting in a melee?” When everyone heard this, they looked at each other.
“Yes, that’s right. The remaining five contestants will fight in the arena war together. During the battle, you will be able to concede. The last remaining contestant will be the victor and will be rewarded with both victory and reward.” The Steward explained to everyone with a smile.
“A free-for-all. It seems like it will be very exciting.” As the gamblers in the audience looked at the five people in the arena, they were filled with excitement. This was indeed a rarely seen competition; it was slightly different from the first night’s challenge.
“I agree.” Sha Danyuan stood up first and said.
“I agree.” Right after Sha Danyuan was the ‘External Devil Human’.
“I have no objections.” The Berserker shrugged and said after hearing the rules.
“I like that way.” The red-faced Liu Han said excitedly as he aimed at the bottle gourd and drank a mouthful of strong alcohol.
Shi En did not say anything, but nodded his head in agreement. Because he, Wang Dachui, was a member of the Underground Fighting Ground, he had long received the notification from the Underground Fighting Ground. He knew that this Fighting Competition’s method was different from the previous two, and this time they had used a free-for-all, thus he had secretly asked the red-faced Liu Han to form an alliance. In comparison, Sha Danyuan was the same.
Since the five promotions had agreed, the final free-for-all was decided. The gamblers were all extremely excited.
“A free-for-all, I like it the most.”
“Amazing, it must be very exciting.”
They excitedly discussed with each other, as if they were eager to see the world in chaos.
Soon, the break time was over and the five people who had just advanced stepped onto the stage.
“Before the announcement is made. I still have to explain one more thing. If it really isn’t possible, then don’t push yourself. Our Underground Fighting Ground is designed to dig out new people, and we aren’t willing to see someone lose their future. ” Steward said to the microphone.
“Right, even if we lose this time, you still have a chance to challenge me.” Sha Danyuan smiled at Shi En and the others.
Shi En was truly too shameless as he took off his boots and threw it at Sha Danyuan’s face. He was the one who did all the attacking the eliminated people behind his back, and he actually had the guts to say such words, Shi En also laughed and said to him: “Sure, no problem, but I want to ask, is your waist ready? If you don’t, remember to go to the market and buy some pork loin stew to make up for it. Haha. ”
“You!”
“What about me? Grandpa will be leaving first. I’ll be waiting for you in the arena.”
The five of them were spread out across the five corners of the ring.
Every corner of the arena was set with a different type of attribute. The corner where Shi En was in was ice attribute, and around it was an incomparably hard ice attribute. It was as if they were standing in an ice kiln, and even when they accidentally exhaled, they were able to instantly form a froth in the air.
From this, it could be seen how low the temperature of this corner of the stage was. Fortunately, Shi En had the black Flame Imprint Pattern and his body was not affected by the cold Qi. For example, the red-faced Liu Han, the one in the corner of the stage was of the earth attribute, the entire stage was filled with swamps, and it was time for him to stare blankly at the tiger, without showing any other expression.
One by one, those who had advanced to the next level did not immediately attack, but observed the other four because the other four were their opponents.
Even before the fight had begun, the tense atmosphere had already spread out. The ban was unbreakable. The gamblers stopped their discussions and held their breaths, focusing on the fight.
Shi En observed his other three opponents, his mind quickly replaying the fight between Shang Qian and the three opponents that he had recorded before he left the stage.
These three opponents were not ranked first in Shi En’s mind, but rather in the right corner of the lightning attribute stage, the ‘External Devil Human’. From the combat footage that Shang Qian had given him, he realized that this opponent was very outstanding in both close combat and ranged combat.
The second was the fire attribute stage – Berserker Warrior, which was located in the left corner of his body. It was born with a Berserk bloodline, and once triggered, it would allow him to increase his combat ability greatly. In the berserk state, he would then unleash his full potential and transform into a Titan.
As for the wind-attribute arena in the corner opposite of them, Sha Danyuan, what he cultivated was nothing but an ancient killing technique that was famous for its ruthlessness. Shi En did not take it to heart, because he had long been defeated by Shi En as the first opponent.
Unfortunately, Shi En was more familiar with the Ancient Killing techniques than the others. He had already seen this technique, which was aimed at killing people, when he was young and had gone to the school with Mister Ye to help pick up scraps at the street corner.
That’s right, it was that peerless swordsman who once competed with Shi En in the Forbidden City in sword techniques, and in the end, because the sword in his hand was a little shorter than his opponent’s, he suffered a miserable defeat. In his later years, he finally comprehended everything and created his own set of eighteen style palm techniques.
It was just that this ancient killing technique was later confiscated by the Mister of Jiao Xi’s private school. Afterwards, the bored and bored private school teacher had used him as a negative example and had developed a sword skill specifically designed to restrain ancient killing techniques, and had even replaced the pre-class morning exercises of the students of the private school of Jiao Xi. It could be said that as long as one was a student from the private school of Jiao Xi, they were basically the nemesis of this ancient killing technique.
As for Shi En, who had been heavily poisoned in Jiao Xi’s private school for eight years, he had long familiarized himself with this sword technique. It would be easy for him to deal with him.
Suddenly, Sha Danyuan moved, he took out two daggers and shot out two poisonous black figures, one towards the red faced Liu Han on his left, and the other towards Shi En who was facing him.
Sha Danyuan acted as if he was the fuse, and the moment he attacked, the others also followed suit.
Instantly, the entire arena was filled with streams of different colors and different types of qi and energy. They intersected with each other, creating an extremely fascinating scene.
Shi En also tried to channel a bit of Qi into his left palm, but he did not manage to dodge the attack. Instead, he met the black shadow head on and collided with a dagger in an instant, shattering it. The dagger melted into a puddle of molten iron, which instantly melted a hole in the icy ground.
After being defeated, a bit of the strange black Flame Imprint Pattern on Shi En’s body was also consumed. With Xiao Lu’s hand, Sha Danyuan’s face changed, he had thought that this fake Wang Dachui would definitely use a sword to block, but who knew that his palm techniques were so powerful.
The gamblers in the audience had watched the two matches of “Wang Dachui” before, and knew that “Wang Dachui’s” sword techniques were terrifying, but no one had thought that “Wang Dachui’s” palms were so powerful, they all waved their hands and cheered.
“This Sha Danyuan really practices an Ancient Killing technique. Luckily, she didn’t slack when she was young, and wanted to see how I would break your Ancient Killing technique.” Shi En muttered to himself, as he released all the Qi in his body, he then used the Mountain Village version of Chou Niu’s movement technique to rush towards Sha Danyuan’s stage.
With a thrust of the wooden sword, Shi En performed his first move: Breaking Wind.
A gust of wind blew, it condensed and moved like a sword, striking towards Sha Danyuan, causing him to jump in fright.
The power of this sword strike was not only out of Sha Danyuan’s expectations, it was also out of Shi En’s expectations. He vaguely remembered what Mister said to them back then, that this sword skill required the assistance of Inner Qi in order to produce the best results.
Swift Wind Break came out, restraining Sha Danyuan who was about to attack, he immediately changed his move and stepped back to the side to dodge. Even Sha Danyuan, who had avoided the attack, felt that the air in front of him had been directly torn apart, and even his own protective armor was unable to withstand that sharp glint.
Using his movement technique, Sha Danyuan’s figure flashed, and three crisscrossed images shot out. He discovered that two of the illusions had instantly been torn apart and destroyed by the Whirlwind Slash. Sha Danyuan’s true body was also affected by the attack and his protective armor was no weaker than tofu, as it was directly torn apart.
If he did not dodge in time, Shi En’s attack would have heavily injured him and eliminated him.
He was simply unable to retaliate at all. He realized that his opponent had only used a single strike to restrain all of his moves, and he once again used a movement technique to swiftly charge towards the ‘External Devil Human’ on the right.
At the same time, Berserker Warrior used his bare hands to forcefully dissipate all of the flames within five metres around him. He moved as fast as a meteor, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Shi En. With another punch, a strong flow of air carried the thick flames, causing the blood in Shi En’s body to flow violently.
“Holy sh * t!”
Following Shi En’s explosive curse, a bottle gourd fell from the sky. It was tight, just in time to block the fist from the Berserker Warrior, and then, the red-faced Liu Han appeared out of nowhere on top of the bottle gourd.
Boom!
When his fist touched the bottle gourd, flames immediately shot out. The flames on Berserker Warrior’s fist also weakened a lot.
Today, Berserker Warrior actually brought equipment. There was a thick chain wrapped around his arm, which had long since turned red, but the heat seemed to have no effect on Berserker Warrior’s body. He actually threw out another punch without any hesitation.
Boom!
The gourd was pushed back ten meters, leaving a long mark on the ground. Shi En took this opportunity to increase the distance between him and the two of them.
The Sword Qi flowed endlessly, like the water of the Yangtze River rushing towards Sha Danyuan, but it was a pity that Shi En was unable to integrate himself into the wooden sword, otherwise the might of the sword would have been endless.
