259: Chapter 153: The Terrible Color of the Dense Forest, The Shadow of Mirror Immortal Gu 259: Chapter 153: The Terrible Color of the Dense Forest, The Shadow of Mirror Immortal Gu Possessing over ten thousand population, and hundreds in the Earth-digging Realm, the Mirror Immortal Camp.
Facing a mere medium-sized camp with a population over a thousand, could it get into trouble?
Although he still held Xia Hong in high regard, at the moment the other said this sentence, Yuwen Hu still thought, this guy must be crazy.
But very soon, his opinion changed.
The reason was Xia Hong’s speed!
Xia Hong charged at him first, reaching him almost instantly, and after a flash of suspicion in Yuwen Hu’s eyes, he hastily raised his broadsword to block.
The slender Yi Blade did not cleave at him as he anticipated.
At the moment Xia Hong was about to reach his face, he actually withdrew the Yi Blade, switching to a slanted sweep kick.
Can flesh and a broadsword collide and win?
The answer lay in that one booming sound.
At the instant that slanted sweep kick collided with the broadsword, Yuwen Hu only felt as if a great mountain was rolling towards him, his tiger mouth splitting, nearly losing grip of the broadsword.
His whole body retreated one or two meters, the powerful momentum causing the blood in his chest to flow in reverse.
If not for his vast combat experience, knowing not to lose heart, he would have definitely spewed a mouthful of blood.
“How could his strength, in just these few days, this is impossible…”
That sweep kick left Yuwen Hu’s mind in a daze.
“Father, be careful!”
Even needing a reminder from his son Yuwen Dao, he only then noticed Xia Hong’s next move, his pupils suddenly shrinking.
Xia Hong hadn’t completely withdrawn his Yi Blade, he had only left it behind, waiting for the sweep kick to push him back, then flipping his body, both hands gripping the Yi Blade, slashing towards his neck.
This kid’s combat talent is terrifyingly strong!
Recalling the situation from the last confrontation, Yuwen Hu’s heart trembled slightly, the broadsword across his front, sweeping fiercely at Xia Hong, attempting to force him back.
Yuwen Hu’s broadsword was already big, adding to his strength, the horizontal sweep bringing a fierce wind, making Xia Hong’s face sting painfully.
Watching the broadsword’s sweeping double-edges approaching, a gleam flashed through Xia Hong’s eyes, gritting his teeth and lowering his head, using his knees to forcibly lift one side of Yuwen Hu’s broadsword upwards slightly.
The broadsword’s side shifted upward by an inch, no longer with its edge facing Xia Hong, but the flat of the blade.
Xia Hong slightly turned his body, using his back to receive the sword, while his hands tightly gripped the Yi Blade, still swiftly slashing towards Yuwen Hu’s neck.
“This kid intends to trade injuries for a kill!”
Seeing through Xia Hong’s intent, a drop of cold sweat seeped from Yuwen Hu’s forehead, at such a critical juncture, he couldn’t possibly turn the blade’s edge around again.
He could only retreat!
But Xia Hong didn’t even give him a chance to retreat.
The slender one and a half meter long blade flashed with a weak yet deadly glow, the sharp cry of the blade piercing ears like a silver needle, Yuwen Hu felt a piercing pain from his neck, his heart skipping a beat.
Xia Hong’s Yi Blade, was simply too fast.
Realizing he couldn’t dodge at all, a ruthless glint appeared in Yuwen Hu’s eyes, he released the broadsword abruptly, lowering his head quickly, using his neck to catch the Yi Blade, then reaching out with both hands to seize Xia Hong.
“How can you alone overturn the skies!”
Yuwen Hu shouted in a deep voice, both hands gripping Xia Hong’s arms tightly, not allowing him to budge an inch.
“Cold Resistance Level skin layer, I forgot about that!”
Seeing Yuwen Hu’s neck bleeding yet his strength showing no sign of weakening, Xia Hong immediately understood that his Yi Blade had not caused him much harm.
Indeed, his own Reshaping Skin progress was only at fifty-six percent, and the skin’s hardness was already phenomenal, while Yuwen Hu before him was a true Cold Resistance Level mighty force with a completely remodeled skin!
Countless blades and swords struck upon Xia Hong, producing sounds of metal and stone clashing.
Yuwen Hu, even willing to have his neck injured to restrain Xia Hong, was, of course, for a reason.
Among the hundreds in the Earth-digging Realm, the strongest among them had already seized the moment as the two clashed, gathering before Xia Hong.
Their hands wielding either blade or sword, all of them mustered full power to cut at Xia Hong’s body.
However, surprisingly, even though their strength had reached the thirty thousand pound limit, and four of them had begun remodeling their skin, surpassing thirty thousand pounds of strength.
Yet none of them could break through Xia Hong’s body.
“Everyone, scatter, use bows, shoot his eyes!”
Yuwen Hu shouted angrily, the initial satisfaction of restraining Xia Hong vanished without a trace upon seeing this.
“Dull skin, not fully remodeled phase, how does it have such a strong defense, only six days, his strength, skin progress, how could it change so much!”
An ordinary Earth-digging Realm couldn’t break through the defense, unless stacking lives, wearing Xia Hong down to exhaustion, but such losses, even the Mirror Immortal Camp couldn’t afford them.
Yuwen Hu ordering everyone to spread out was a quick response.
But Xia Hong at this time, broke free from his grip.
“Weren’t you just saying, I was going down today!”
Xia Hong’s voice was incredibly deep, having not only broken free from Yuwen Hu’s hands but also retracting the Yi Blade, turning his body sharply, charging straight into the dispersing crowd.
With a basic strength of one hundred thousand pounds, Xia Hong charging into the crowd was like a fierce tiger pouncing into a flock of sheep, those not yet dispersed, as if ready to be slaughtered cattle and sheep.
In the midst of the dense forest, a massacre feast began instantly.
