Chapter 26 The Three-headed Six-Armed Person Danced with Her Lance

“Be careful, once the three swords become one, its sharpness and speed will be far beyond than before.” Liu Shuai’s voice rang beside my ears, like the Thousand-Li Sound Transmission divine art used by Lin Qingxia in the film Six-Fingered Demon.

“When did Liu Shuai learn the Thousand-Li Sound Transmission?” I couldn’t help but cry out.

“What Thousand-Li Sound Transmission!” Xiao Hong snorted, “he’s using a magic tool!”

I turned my head and almost fainted. Zhang Chi Hang took out a big karaoke sound box from nowhere. He told Liu Shuai to shout at me with the microphone while he sat down on the cloud platform. Liu Shuai had originally thought that he looked extremely foolish, but due to the authority of the Bodhisattva, he could only muster up his courage and shout.

With this posture, as long as Liu Shuai put on sunglasses, placed a metal basin under his feet, and sang a song called “Teardrop in Prison”, he could make money by performing on the street.

Xiao Hong gripped the sword hilt and lightly shook it, the sword immediately lengthened and turned into a spear of fire and pierced towards me.

“Be careful, he’s very fast,” Liu Shuai shouted with the loud sound box.

“Competing for speed?” I chuckled in my heart. I had learned the fastest martial arts in the world.

As I thought that in my heart, I planned to use the extremely fast and ghostly Sunflower Grimoire. But I felt something wrong. Last time Yan lended me his mana, I could use that technique from the start and my speed became extremely fast. However, this time, I was unable to use it no matter what, so I was in a sorry situation. I was blocking Xiao Hong’s fire spear, it nearly stabbed into my body several times.

“Hao Ning, are you going to use —”

“Hey, could you not speak like that! The echoes are too loud for me to hear! ” Liu Shuai’s shout made me anxious. Moreover, the wind at high altitudes was strong, so I couldn’t hear what he said clearly.

“Oh, I’m sorry, the mixed sound is too loud,” Liu Shuai said as he lowered his head to adjust the volume.

Holy shit, was the sound box really moved out from the karaoke? Otherwise, how could it has mixed sound? I wondered what was in Zhang Chi Hang’s pocket.

“Hey, can you hear me? Let me try it out. ‘One person, gets drunk, I think of the beauty. But, I’m still alone.’— Hmm, it works, “Liu Shuai said with the microphone, like he was really adjusting the microphone. I glanced at this idiot while fighting, while Zhang Chi Hang, who was standing beside, was already rolling his eyes. I made up my mind that I would not tell anybody that I knew this idiot when I went back to the company.

“Hao Ning, I think you want to use the Sunflower — What? Is there such a thing? Oh, I see – do you want to use, Um, the Sunflower Reproduction System Grimoire? You can’t use it now, because that technique requires you to castrate yourself first. You can use it last time, it was because you used your own Spirit Qi to condense the Qi, and consumed a lot of it in a short time, so your body’s condition is pretty much the same as being castrated. That’s why you could use that kind of eunuch’s martial arts easily, haha… ”

The sound box’s effect was really good. I could even hear Liu Shuai’s laughter. Then I used the Sliding-over-the-water Art to “run” and in the same time shouted, “I got it, shut up!”

In that split-second, I understood the difference. Last time, my body’s condition was different, so I could use that grimoire to increase my speed dramatically in an instant, but this time, I didn’t consume any energy yet, since Zhang Chi Hang had helped me, so I naturally couldn’t use this kind of mysterious technique that required castration first.

That was going to be troublesome. As I walked, I thought, what other martial arts could I use to fight with Xiao Hong’s speed? How about a different angle, I did not need to compete speed with him? As I though about that, I seemed to get a plan.

“Hey, you little thief. Why are you biting your finger when you’re hiding from me?” Hong Hai’er held onto the Flame Spear and chased after me while piercing through, but he couldn’t hurt me at all. He could only rage in his heart as he thought something like how could he meet such an eccentric opponent today, those previous opponents either beg for mercy or ran aways after losing in fight, but this guy was really mystical; he did not admit lose or fight back, but used peculiar magic tools to fly and doge him. Beside, his spear was so fast, but not able to hit the opponent.

Xiao Hong was indeed formidable. He continued piercing his spear as he spoke. When he said “little thief”, he picked, stabbed, and thrusted for thirty-six times. When he said, “why are you biting your finger”, he had already stabbed for sixty-four times, and it was obvious that a round of thrust and retraction consumed the most amount of inner strength. Generally, the spear arts were thrusting, slapping, patting, blocking. For Xiao Hong to be able to use this kind of skill in an instant, not to mention his mana, his martial arts must reach an extremely high level.

I felt a little awkward. I have this bad habit of biting my finger when I was thinking about something. Just then I habitually bit my finger when I thought. What a disgrace! I actually exposed such a vile habit as I fought with a deity. What would others think of me when they knew about it? However, I secretly admired Xiao Hong’s martial arts.

Later on, when I got another chance to chat with Xiao Hong again, I found out that although Xiao Hong was scolding, he was secretly shocked in his heart as well. The whole world did not know the true ability of the Great Saint Infant King and only knew that he was famous for the Samadhi True Fire. In fact, his Fire Controlling Technique was merely his third strongest skill. The second was his martial arts. But, speaking of the eighty-one true fire spikes, no one had been able to dodge it since he cultivated that technique. Thus when he found I, a nameless brat, had such great martial arts, he secretly appreciated it in his heart. It was a pity that this man ruined his business. Avalokitesvara was not a threat. Although he had powerful mana, his marital arts was so bad. However, the one in front him was skilled with such as strange moving technique. If he could not put him down, then this guy might make huge troubles later by furtively attacking him.

When Xiao Hong mentioned this to me later, I chuckled to myself. He didn’t know that I could only defend myself, unable to mount a sneak attack. Actually, I could only dodge him, how dare I launch a sneak attack?

But at that moment, I didn’t know what Xiao Hong was thinking. I changed the direction of my sword, also my steps and sword techniques, then murmured lection.

Xiao Hong was stunned, “what spell is this?” However, he did not stop attacking me with his Flame Spear.

At that moment, my mind was completely clear. I shouted softly, “Du Gu Nine Sword, Descending Sword Style!”

The sword technique I used changed. The previous one was learned from Zhang San Fengs’ Tai Chi Sword Technique, the main point of which was to avoid the enemy’s strength. I placed my Water Sword on the back of Xiao Hong’s spear, and drew circles along it, which seemed like strands of silk that were wrapped around the spear, in order to attack the solid form with void arts. However, my fighting style this time was to start late while arrive first, and attack the spots that the opponent must save. As Xiao Hong had just thrusted out his spear, I didn’t even think before thrusting my sword towards his wrist. At the same time, I stepped on the astral step. My body slanted slightly, and I dodged the spear in a way that normal people wouldn’t be able to imagine. Since the aftereffects of the spear had already ended, no matter what he did, clapped, retracted, his wrist would still be struck by my sword, just that the severity of the injury was different. I had never thought of this move before, but just subconsciously stabbed forward when I saw his spear coming towards me. After Xiao Hong found it’s impossible to retract his attack and noticed the change in my sword technique, he was astonished, while his move also stopped. However, he was indeed a good spear user. Since he could not avoid my sword from hitting his waist, he immediately flipped backwards and avoided my attack with the lightest price. This move was extremely dangerous, and when I saw this move of his, I couldn’t help but secretly admire him for that. If I was in the same situation, I would have definitely been hurt and could not find any way to dodge.

Unexpectedly, this “Water Sword” of mine seemed to be his nemesis. This sword seemed to have sliced against his wrist lightly, but there was green smoke coming out from there. When Xiao Hong was flipping in the air, his other hand did not stop but pierced forward his Flame Spear a dozen times, and a wall of fire seemed to appear in front of me. I knew that he was using a strategy to retreat with advancing, and he was afraid that I would take the opportunity to attack while he was still in the air, thus he avoided the solid but defended against the void, which caused me to stop attacking naturally.

After Xiao Hong flipped over in the air, he immediately retreated and maintained a safe distance between us as he stared at me with a pair of bright eyes.
