Chapter 25 Avoiding the Strength of the Enemy

Just after Xiao Hong pierced through the hand seal and was ready to fly towards us in one go, she suddenly discovered that there was someone beside her. She could not help but be shocked at my speed. “Are you with him? Why would you interrupt my plan?”

I was also intoxicated by this sort of opening remark. What did she mean “with him”? However, I was certain that this Xiao Hong was the one from earlier, because her voice sounded exactly the same. Still, why did Xiao Hong, who was in the office a moment ago, suddenly burn so many people to death here? I really didn’t understand. Even though I was thinking like that, I still said, “What plan have I interrupted? So many people below are about to be burned to death by you. You are doing something harmful to others, yet you are blaming me for ruining your scheme? ”

“Hahaha!” A flame ignited in Xiao Hong’s eyes, “how many people have died in the past few decades? Countless. Why you blame only me for burning a few? Kong Ming had long predicted that it would rain heavily today, while he had been planning it for a long time, thus he prayed to me to make sure the wind and fire does not stop today. As long as he takes the power of Han Dynasty, he will build divine shrines for me and allow me to enjoy all donations in the world.”

“Xiao Hong.” I pointed my sword at him, “you were just fine a moment ago. How could you become like that? Are donations that important? Did you donate the one billion? ”

“How dare you call me Xiao Hong?” Hearing me call her that, Xiao Hong’s face suddenly flushed red, and she looked at me angrily, “I don’t understand what you’re saying. I am Hong Hai’er, the Great Saint Infant King. You brat. I don’t know where you got the treasure or why you are willing to be the assistant of that weird Avalokitesvara, but you are so reckless! I won’t forgive you! ”

Before I could reply, Xiao Hong stabbed three swords towards me. I raised my sword to block and with a ‘chi’ sound, the green sword in my hand was cut in half at the waist, which made me startled and hurriedly retreat.

“Hmph!” Xiao Hong laughed sinisterly, “It seems like you’re not that good after all. How could you block my path with that broken thing? My treasured sword is refined from the unparalleled Fire Controlling Technique. There are very weapons in the world that can match it. This Bodhisattva is not clearly a male or female, and the treasured sword he gave you is even confused with the gender, hahaha!”

Damn, Zhang Chi Hang was too unreliable. How could he give me a broken stick! I cursed in my heart, while this jade green sword seemed to hear my criticism towards it. It didn’t seem to be convinced, and suddenly grew back, becoming the same length as before.

Xiao Hong scolded, in the meanwhile the treasured sword in her hand hacked at me nonstop. With a flash of an idea, I wandered based on the rules of sixty-four divines as I walked in the air. Xiao Hong’s treasured sword was always on the verge of hitting me, but every time I would easily dodge from an extremely tricky angle.

“What magic is this? Is the magic treasure so special? ” Xiao Hong looked at the Wind and Fire Wheels under my feet. It seemed like she thought it was due to this magic treasure. However, she didn’t know that I was using the ‘Sliding-over-the-water Art’ that I had ‘learned’ just now. Using the Yi Scripture as the base. It seemed like I was going to use my own footwork. However, as I used this footwork, Xiao Hong was simply unable to hit me.

Thus, a strange scene appeared. Xiao Hong, with her three heads and six arms, was stabbing me at the back with all her might while I was riding the wind as if I was on a pedestal, pretty unfettered.

What a joke! Once this footwork was used, no one would be able to grab my clothes, but this could only be considered as a martial art used to escape. Duan Yu had once used this footwork to try to catch others, but in the end, he was slapped down. I would not be that stupid to fight with others with Sliding-over-the-water Art. However, Xiao Hong’s sword was so sharp. It also emitted light, just like the laser sword in Star Wars that could cut down anything. Well, it didn’t seem to be exactly the same as the light sword in Star Wars, since this sword was sharp and incomparable. It was more like the Heaven Sword. Yes, it was a burning Heaven Sword.

Heaven Sword? I seemed to get a plan.

As I walked in the air with the Sliding-over-the-water Art, I tried to use my sword to dodge Xiao Hong’s tip. When it was placed on the flat surface of the sword, there was a sizzling sound and my sword remained unbroken. However, that fire sword was like a hot metal plate being poured by a bucket of cold water on top of it, and Xiao Hong shivered for it.

It worked. I suddenly stopped moving forward. With my feet stepping in the air, I hurriedly flew upwards, making a move that was like stepping on clouds. When I landed again, I placed this “water sword” on top of one of her swords, then drew a circle following the direction of the fire sword. As the water sword hit on the fire one, the later released green smoke, but because it was placed on the sword plane, the sharpness of the sword edge was completely useless against the water sword. As I drew a circle around the fire sword, I knew clearly that every circle drawn by the sword would release a thread that would wrap around the sword. Over time, the sword would become extremely heavy and it would be difficult for any martial arts expert to use it.

Sure enough, after these few rounds, Xiao Hong seemed to be extremely uncomfortable. She immediately took the other two swords to slash at me.

I called out to myself, “she’s in my trick.” The water sword, along with the fire sword, hit toward the other two fire swords that were coming. After that, I started using the Great Universal Teleportation technique. As my water sword drove the fire sword lightly clashed with the other two, the later, for some unknown reason, slashed towards Xiao Hong’s two arms, causing blood suddenly to flow out from her hands. It was as if Xiao Hong was immune to the fire sword and wouldn’t be burnt, but she was still injured.

Xiao Hong hurriedly retreated, her expression dark and uncertain, “Life-Death Illusion Two Elements Dust Array?” After thinking for a while, she shook her head, “that doesn’t make sense, my Innate Spiritual Fire is a treasure that can burn through everything and destroy all illusions. Ordinary Two Elements Dust Array cannot dodge it. Could this guy use Tai Qing Essence Qi Talisman as the array eye? This is impossible! Divine items like that have not shown up for so many years!”

I didn’t understand what Xiao Hong was talking, and that move was also extremely dangerous. The three swords of Xiao Hong were indeed the world’s sharpest weapons. A normal weapon would have been melted before it could even touch them, even if it didn’t burn, it would have been chopped apart by the sharp blade. With this weapon, Xiao Hong was almost invincible. No wonder Zhang Chi Hang didn’t want to show off his power to in front of her.

It was a pity that she coincidentally met Zhang Chi Hang who was able to extinguish all flames with his willow branches, and Master Jin’s novel also recorded that when facing such a sharp weapon, one could rely on another sharp weapon like the Heaven Sword, or a wooden sword to dodge the attack, which was precisely the principle of using the “Tai Chi Sword” to avoid the attack. At the same time, Xiao Hong’s martial arts were also superb. Her reaction was extremely fast, and when her saw that one of the swords was unable to block it, her used the other two swords to block the attack. If it wasn’t for the “Great Universal Teleportation” skill that I used to guide her own sword to block the other two and instruct them to hit herself, I would not have been able to defend her powerful weapons with the water sword in my hand. “Standing on the shoulders of giants, one’s experience and methods are completely different! ” I couldn’t help but exclaim. Mr. Jin’s creation of this kind of fighting style was truly shocking.

Just as I was thinking, I saw Xiao Hong’s body shaking and her three heads and six arms retracting back into her body, then she turned back into a normal person, and the three swords in her hand had become one.
