Chapter 368 Don’t leave Of course, there were also objective reasons for his desire for quick success. The whirlwind was strangled by the tremendous power of his sword. The tornado was gone, and he had nowhere to gain leverage in the air. It would take some time for him to pull the wind along again. The masked man below was very decisive and did not give him any chance at all. It was too late, and it was useless to pull the lightning in the sky to strike him, because he was not afraid of being struck by lightning at all. If he didn't take advantage of the situation, he wouldn't have the ability to hang in the air, nor would he have the ability to jump left and right in the air, because his true cultivation had not reached that level yet. The other man was falling, and the masked man was rushing towards him. He had no way to avoid it. What else could he do except to engage in hand-to-hand combat and to kill himself? In fact, he is also very strong in close combat, so he is not afraid. Before the light in the huge, expanding, floc-like column of light completely disappeared, the Yanbao Sect disciples who were watching the battle outside, as well as Xu and You, all saw the figure in the column of light rushing upward against the trend. What? Not dead yet? Everyone was shocked. If they had not heard the sound of thunder and if they had not seen Li Hongjiu rushing forward with sword in hand to fight, they would have thought they had seen it wrong. How can this be? They wanted to see it more clearly and confirm it, but the light and shadow in the beam of light disappeared. Countless fragments of clouds blocked their sight. The light in the land of darkness was not good to begin with.

Boom! An explosion sounded from the shattered clouds. The sound of fighting confirmed that the masked man was indeed still alive. At the moment of close combat, Li Hongjiu finally understood what the explosive sound he had heard before was. At the moment of the sword-clash, he felt the explosive force coming from the opponent's sword. The force of the explosion might not be too strong, but the shock of the explosion was enough to cushion most of the force of his attack. This surprised him, but after the collision of swords, he confirmed that the opponent's cultivation level was not high. And now was not the time to think too much. At the moment when the two sides fought, he had a better cultivation and a faster reaction speed than the opponent. When the swords shook each other away, he took advantage of the opportunity and hit the opponent's chest with his palm. Unexpectedly, the opponent did not block or evade, but took the opportunity to strike him in the chest with a palm. Li Hongjiu was a little surprised. Not to mention what consequences would befall the opponent after he hit him with a palm strike with his higher cultivation level, at least he struck first and would hit the opponent first. Before the opponent's palm strike could hit him, the power of his palm would shake the opponent away, and the opponent's palm strike would not be able to reach him at all. He had already realized that there must be something mysterious about Shi Chun's palm. But in the moment when they crossed each other's paths, he had no chance to think, and he had no intention of withdrawing his hand, because the martial arts he had learned by himself had its own mysteries, and he believed that even if he was hit by a palm, it would not hurt him. Even if a human immortal at the minor success stage hit him, he might not be able to be hurt. Boom, after a palm hit the masked man's chest, he immediately knew where Xuanxu was. The opponent also had the explosive force protecting his body, which could cushion the considerable power of his palm. Even so, considering the way swords and knives knock away each other, his palm is enough to knock the masked man away, so that the masked man's palm cannot hit him. As a result, when he hit the masked man's chest with his palm, the remaining attack force failed to produce the imagined effect of shaking the man away, or it was not as strong as imagined. The power was insufficient, and the speed of shaking him away was naturally not fast. He was immediately shocked. Could it be that the other party had been acting from the very beginning and hiding his skills? Shi Chun's eyes were fierce, and he was waiting for this moment with one palm after another. That's right, the opponent's cultivation is one level higher than his, but he has magic power to protect his body, and under the magic power is the protection of precious clothes. With the double protection, the opponent's cultivation is not so high that he cannot bear it. And he only needed to hit the opponent with one palm. His 'demon-breaking hand' was always effective, with almost no exceptions. Anyone who was hit was basically dead, unless the opponent was also wearing the special armor like Mulan Qingqing. This is his secret weapon! As a result, the palm really hit Li Hongjiu's chest hard.

The two people who had passed each other finally separated. One of them was upside down and the other was upside down. After they separated, they quickly missed each other. Almost at the same time, the wind that had slowed down on this side was finally interrupted by the wind from outside. The strong winds from all directions instantly tore apart the broken columnar clouds on this side, revealing the figures of the two people crossing each other. The masked man was indeed still alive. The Yanbao Sect's disciples were filled with disbelief and wanted to know who that man was. How was it possible that someone stronger than their junior master uncle could get in? This time, even they suspected that one of the elders at the exit had intervened. Xu and You showed expressions of surprise and extreme excitement. Even though they were a little dark from being struck by lightning, they could not hide their joy. Strong, the person sent from above is really too strong! The two fighters, one rushed up and the other fell to the ground. Shi Chun rushed up with a sneer in his eyes, not willing to let the man below go. He cast the Buyun Boots spell, turned around and pounced down, and the man was upside down, chasing after him with a knife. Anyone who has been hit by his 'magic-breaking hand' still wants to escape? He clearly felt that the power of his 'Demon-Removing Hand' had broken through the opponent's defense and penetrated into his body. If he encounters such an opponent in the Divine Fire Domain, he will never give the other party any chance to breathe. If he encounters such a person with abnormal strength, no one knows what will happen after the other party recovers. Leaving him behind will definitely cause trouble in the future, so he should take advantage of his illness to kill him. This situation of chasing and killing was too obvious, which at least proved that the masked man was not afraid of Li Hongjiu at all. This scene made the Yanbao Sect's group tremble with fear. No way, the junior master is so powerful, can he not beat the opponent? Xu and You widened their eyes and held their breath. Li Hongjiu landed first, rolled over and landed on the ground, then swung his sword into the air, boom, he deflected the masked man's fierce knife. Then, almost exactly the same as before, he slammed his palm into the air, and Shi Chun, who was rushing down, slammed his palm towards him. The two men, one above and one below, faced each other with their palms connected like a straight line. Bang! There was a loud bang. Li Hongjiu stood still, with only her clothes fluttering in the wind. Shi Chun flipped in the air and fell to the side. After landing, he staggered back two steps, and then stared at Li Hongjiu with a look as if he had seen a ghost. Li Hongjiu smiled brightly and said, "It's quite interesting. This trip to the Divine Fire Territory wasn't in vain. Don't leave. Let's have some fun." It would be strange if he didn't leave. Shi Chun turned around and ran away as if he had seen a ghost. All his previous desperate momentum was gone, and while the wind was not picking up here, he turned around and ran away as if he was risking his life. His attitude changed so quickly because of the palm strike he just received. God knows how shocked he was at this moment. This Li Hongjiu actually knew the "Demon Bathing Skill". When he faced him just now, he actually used the "Demon-Removing Hand" to attack him. He has practiced the 'Demon-Removing Hand' for many years and knows it too well to be wrong. That palm strike of his was the real 'Demon-Removing Hand', without any error. He was caught off guard and staggered to the ground. He had to urgently use the Demon Bathing Technique to neutralize the attack. No wonder the other party could act like nothing happened after being hit by my "Demon-Removing Hand" and could deal with me easily. He is completely different from the people who were hit by the "Demon-Removing Hand" before. It turns out that he has also practiced this technique. My cultivation is not as good as theirs. They also know what I know. They also have more people and more power. How can I play this game? Will I play until people from other sects come? What he was most worried about now was not that people from other factions would come, but that they would force out the secrets from others. If they knew that he knew the secret of their cultivation of magic skills, they would kill him to silence them. Once the other party starts to attack without concealment, based on his level of cultivation, I will not be his opponent at all. This smiling tiger was hiding too deeply and was too insidious. How could he dare to stay there for even a moment? No matter whether he could escape or not, he had to escape first.

So he fled in panic with a heart full of shock. Xu and You, who were hiding in the dark, were very surprised. They didn't know what had happened. How could the man who had just been so heroic and confident turn around and run away? When the two of them saw this, they decided not to sit idle, so they immediately took advantage of the terrain to escape and chased in the direction Shi Chun fled. Li Hongjiu, who was standing there silently with one arm bare and holding a sword, did not chase after him. As he watched him leave, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and he cast a spell by pointing his finger into the wind again. As a result, the wind in the direction of Shi Chun's escape became even stronger. Therefore, Shi Chun, who felt the other party's intention to block him, ran even harder and tried his best to escape. Seeing this, a group of Yanbao Sect disciples flocked to Li Hongjiu. Glancing at the silent uncle, Guang Haoyou waved his hand and shouted, "Chase!" As soon as he said this, Li Hongjiu raised the sword in his hand horizontally, and his intention to stop him was obvious. He said softly, "Don't chase him. You are no match for him." The sound is so low that it is almost inaudible. The disciples looked at each other and thought, we are no match for them, but we still have you, uncle-master. They have been beaten and fled by you. We can just act as spies and keep an eye on them. Li Hongjiu did not explain the reason. He felt that Shi Chun had run far away, so he retracted his chopping gesture, looked around, and then walked towards a nearby smooth stone pillar that was nearly as tall as a person. He stood in front of the stone pier, raised his empty palm flat towards the sky, then gradually brought it to his chest. After a moment of silence, he suddenly slapped the stone pier with his palm without any sound. After withdrawing his palm, his body shook slightly, he let out a muffled groan, and actually spat out a mouthful of blood in public. The blood was carried away by the wind, and a group of Yanbao Sect disciples began to cry out in concern, "Uncle Master..." They surrounded him together. At this time, even a fool understood why the master uncle did not allow them to chase him. The master uncle had been injured by the masked man, and he was just holding on. He had no energy left to fight the masked man again. But what they didn't understand was why the masked man fled in panic, and if the masked man was also injured, why didn't the uncle-master let them chase him. Li Hongjiu, who had taken out the ice sheep and held it in front of his mouth and nose to take a deep breath, waved his hand to show that everything was fine, and signaled the people around him to move aside. After the people in front of the stone pillar walked away, he swung his sword horizontally and actually cut off a piece of the stone pillar. Then he sheathed the sword, took out a sandalwood gold lamp, and shone it on the smooth cross-section of the stone pillar to carefully observe its condition. (End of this chapter)
