Chapter 247 Sitting on the sidelines
Chapter 247 Sitting on the sidelines
"Burning Blood, Blade's Decree!"
Lin Hu roared, his entire body instantly covered in blood vessels, and a surge of crimson energy pushed his hair back into view, his eyes flashing with a scarlet light.
With a flick of his wrist, his aura suddenly became sharper. Although it couldn't compare to Feng Shangyun's sword strike, it was already very close to the level of a pseudo-innate being.
This blood-burning secret technique was his last stand.
Xiao Li asked curiously.
"This must be a deadly technique, right? It looks pretty powerful. Bro, do you think he can turn the tables and kill you?"
Gu Yun looked at Lin Hu, who was closing in on Feng Shangyun and Hua Xin'er, and the Eternal Night Sword Intent that was about to strike him. He shook his head and sighed softly, recounting the final outcome.
"Let's go, this man's fate is sealed."
“Those who are born with innate qualities are not on the same level as those who are not. No matter how much they use secret methods to improve, it will be of no use. Moreover, Lin Hu does not have any kind of intention to rely on.”
"In this world, at least in the lower realm, there are only three common types of power that can be put on the table. The first type is some saint-level techniques based on innate energy. The second type is powers or some special saint-level soul techniques based on soul power. However, saint-level soul techniques usually need to be released in combination, and it is too difficult for one person to do it alone. In short, I have not seen any yet."
"The third is intention."
"They correspond to the body, soul, and spirit respectively."
"Among them, the meaning is the most powerful, because it can not only be used as a skill on its own, but also be integrated into cultivation techniques and soul arts to add its own characteristics."
"Lin Hu does not possess any of these three qualities."
"How can we block this sword strike from below?"
"Death was inevitable; the only question was how much damage his final counterattack would inflict on the two men."
Xiao Li felt somewhat emotional, as the person who had just been chatting and laughing with them was about to depart for the other side of the world, and couldn't help but ask again.
"Big brother, are you really not going to lend a hand?"
Gu Yun spoke to Xiao Li in a somewhat cold tone.
"You don't like to meddle in other people's business, right? I guess you haven't experienced any real life-or-death situations in this world, and your thinking is still within the framework of the rule of law society on Earth."
"If Hongxiu were here, she wouldn't even blink."
"Xiao Li, in this world, don't take the life and death of strangers too seriously. Death is a very common thing. It's good to help out occasionally to make a good connection, but you must remember that there are countless such cases in this world, and you can't help everyone."
"and."
"If Lin Hu were a kind-hearted person who had been treated unfairly, I might have helped him. But he is nothing more than a bully who picks on the weak and fears the strong. If we weren't stronger than him, we might not even be alive today."
"He brought this on himself. Let him settle his own past grievances."
"Of course, I'm just saying what I think. If you want to help, I'll put the battle suit on you and you can go help."
Xiao Li hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.
"Brother, you're right. I didn't think it through. This is no longer our original world. Sometimes, acts of bravery don't necessarily bring praise, but rather risk one's life."
...
The battle is still ongoing.
When Lin Hu made his dying lunge, Feng Shangyun's smile vanished, and his expression turned somewhat solemn.
Seeing the blood-red dot approaching infinitely in his field of vision, and the imposing blade strike that demanded serious attention, Feng Shangyun stopped joking and released Kai Xin'er, gathering his strength in both hands as he held the sword.
He swung the longsword forward with a sudden, powerful motion.
"Shadow Sword, slash!"
"Whoosh!"
A gray sword aura shot out instantly, moving so fast that it vanished without a trace.
Feng Shangyun's Shadow Sword is known for its speed, and at this moment, only such a high-speed sword technique can disrupt Lin Hu's rhythm.
However, Lin Hu's physical condition, having used the Blood Burning Technique, far surpassed that of an ordinary half-step Xiantian. Under this overloaded state, sensing the trace of this sword was effortless.
At the same time, even while moving at high speed, Lin Hu can easily change his path, and this sword energy is as if it were nothing to him.
As expected, the sword energy grazed past Lin Hu's figure.
Almost in the next instant.
Lin Hu appeared to Feng Shangyun's side, wielding his knife with both hands and simultaneously slashing at Feng Shangyun's neck. In an instant, the sharpness of the blades increased greatly, gleaming coldly.
He was prepared to use his full power to kill Feng Shangyun along with Hua Xiner behind him.
He roared.
"You two bitches, come down with me."
Feng Shangyun's expression changed, and his heart trembled. He immediately crushed a piece of jade that he had been holding in his hand. Almost the instant the blade touched the skin of his neck, a blinding white light burst forth around him.
"boom!!"
A deafening roar followed.
Feng Shangyun was launched backward like a cannonball, her face still showing fear.
He held a sword in one hand and pressed the other hand firmly against his neck, constantly channeling his inner energy to accelerate the healing of his wounds.
The jade stone that was just crushed was a one-time defensive magical artifact, said to be able to withstand one instance of damage from those below the Innate Realm.
But this person in front of him was clearly not a Xiantian (innate) being, yet he broke through the spiritual treasure's defenses and caused him harm. If the Eternal Night Sealing Heaven's solidified black dragon hadn't arrived in time to pierce his chest and seal his attack, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
In the next instant, all the shock and fear transformed into anger.
Feng Shangyun's face was gloomy, and his voice sounded somewhat suppressed and hoarse due to his neck injury.
"Very good, Lin Hu, you are very good. I will also remember the Heavenly Blade Pavilion."
"die!"
Feng Shangyun unleashed several shadow sword energies in succession, heading towards Lin Hu, who was pinned to the void by the black dragon.
The most prominent characteristics of Eternal Night Sealing are its ability to pursue and imprison, followed by its ability to deal damage.
Even though Lin Hu's physical body under the burning blood state underwent a qualitative leap, and his status was far superior to that of Feng Shangyun, who was only half a step into the innate realm, he still couldn't withstand the continuous sword strikes.
His body began to tremble violently, his eyes were completely bloodshot, he coughed, blood sprayed out, staining the void in front of him red, his breathing became rapid and heavy, and even his voice became weaker and weaker.
"I...can't accept this..."
Lin Hu held his last breath tightly. He knew that he was coming to an end. Once the effects of the Blood Burning technique wore off, the backlash combined with his current injuries would mean he might not be able to hold on for even a single breath.
He gritted his teeth and let out a low roar, his eyes fixed on Feng Shangyun, gripping the blood-stained longsword tightly, hoping for a sliver of a chance to take him away.
Feng Shangyun stood not far away, his eyes cold, a slight smile playing on his lips, and said.
That's about enough. Be more careful in your next life.
"Some people are not to be trifled with."
"Roar!"
The black light that pierced Lin Hu's chest expanded instantly, like a gaping maw, engulfing Lin Hu completely.
"what----!"
A piercing scream came from within.
Immediately afterwards, a strong smell of blood spread, and the last glimmer of life quietly faded away, returning to nothingness.
From beginning to end, many people paid attention to this battle.
But we're all the same.
They merely watched from the sidelines.
No one wanted to get involved.
