Taichu Yandao: Starting from the Villain

In the dark blue sea, Zhao Rui's face darkened. He raised his right hand and pointed to the sky again.

Behind him, like a peacock spreading its feathers, a number of white flying swords flew out and killed the four steel-toothed octopuses.

The four steel-toothed octopuses were not afraid at all when faced with the same trick. They just glared at the opponent and rushed forward aggressively.

They were not afraid of their injuries, and continued to charge forward with their flying swords, surrounding Zhao and Qian.

"Fellow Daoist, they are coming to kill us." Qian Xiaoyi looked panicked.

A sneer appeared on Zhao Rui's lips. He changed his sword technique and once again commanded the flying swords around him, transforming them into four giant golden swords, slashing towards the four steel-toothed octopuses.

The steel-toothed octopus roared to the sky, instantly erected a blue light shield, and accelerated towards Zhao Qian and the others.

But this time, the four giant swords did not fall directly, but suddenly turned and killed one of the steel-toothed octopuses together.

The sudden change of tactics threw the Steel-tooth Octopus into disarray. They could defend against one giant sword, but if four swords were fired at the same time, they would probably find it difficult to resist.

"Squeak... Squeak..." Angry roars were heard, and two steel-toothed octopuses rushed to the rescue, while the remaining one continued to rush towards Zhao Rui.

But how could their speed be faster than the flying swords? While they were still halfway, four huge golden swords had already slashed down.

With a bang, the blue water shield was pierced and exploded into pieces.

Without the protection of a shield, the steel-toothed octopus was like meat on a chopping board. It was chopped into countless pieces by several golden giant swords and was deader than dead.

"Daoyou's tactic of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west is really unexpected." Qian Xiaoyi praised.

"The best is yet to come, let's wait over there..." Zhao Rui was halfway through his words when his face suddenly changed drastically. He pulled Qian Xiaoyi up and flew to the side.

Just as they dodged a few meters away, a bloody mouth appeared on the spot, and with a snap, water splashed everywhere. At the same time, the light and shadows around them changed, and a steel-toothed octopus the size of an elephant appeared.

The steel-toothed octopus glared with its eyes full of anger, and its muscles suddenly contracted, biting Zhao and Qian again.

"My life is over!" Qian Xiaoyi's face was filled with fear and his breathing almost stopped.

At the critical moment, Zhao Rui's lips moved rapidly, and he pulled up Qian Xiaoyi, turned into a golden light, and disappeared on the spot.

A hundred meters away, Zhao Rui appeared, but his face was pale, and he staggered and almost fell.

“Fellow Daoist!…” Qian Xiaoyi hurriedly supported him.

Zhao Rui waved his hands, gritted his teeth, made hand gestures to control the sword, and fled quickly.

Behind, the steel-toothed octopus’ eyes seemed to be spitting fire, and its eight claws danced in unison as it chased after it relentlessly.

He could no longer see Zhao Qian and the other person in his field of vision, but from his perception, they were not far away, and their speed was getting slower and slower.

About seventy or eighty miles away, the two people who had disappeared appeared in sight again.

The steel-toothed octopus was extremely excited. Its whole body suddenly contracted and it rushed forward at an accelerated speed.

Zhao Rui had been observing with the corner of his eyes, and seeing that the other party was about to catch up, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he made a hand gesture and flew away with his sword again.

Just like before, the two of them didn't run far before their speed slowed down.

This cycle repeated four or five times, and after that, the steel-toothed octopus had chased the two for nearly five hundred miles.

"Fellow Daoist, are the enemies still behind us?" Qian Xiaoyi asked.

Zhao Rui leaned half of his body on Qian Xiaoyi, but his face was ruddy and he didn't look exhausted at all. He said, "He's following us! Next time, I'm afraid we'll have to shorten the distance to deceive him."

"This octopus is very hot-tempered. I thought I would have to sneak attack it several times to irritate it."

Zhao Rui smiled mysteriously and said, "There must be a reason for this."

"Oh, what tricks did you use again?"

"The octopus we just killed should be a female."

Qian Xiaoyi was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood the reason. He thought carefully about the dead steel-tooth octopus and found that it was indeed different from the other steel-tooth octopuses.

While the two were talking, the steel-toothed octopus caught up with them again.

Zhao Rui used the same trick again, hurriedly made hand gestures to control the sword, and flew away.

Half an hour later, near the coast.

The waves above my head were already red, and the sea water around me was like a hot spring.

At this point, Zhao Rui felt relieved. Looking at the steel-toothed octopus behind him, a smug smile appeared on his face.

However, it wasn't long before the smile on his face froze, and the steel-toothed octopus that was chasing him suddenly stopped.

After a moment, the steel-toothed octopus suddenly turned around and ran away at a high speed.

"We're already here, do you still want to leave?" Zhao Rui snorted coldly, left Qian Xiaoyi behind, stepped on the flying sword and chased after the steel-toothed octopus.

In just a moment, Zhao Rui caught up with the Steel-toothed Octopus. He pointed his sword and summoned countless flying swords again.

Cold light flashed in all directions, and countless flying swords were like countless eyes, staring at the steel-toothed octopus.

"Squeak..." The steel-toothed octopus roared loudly without any fear.

"Go!" Zhao Rui gave an order, and countless flying swords rained down towards the steel-toothed octopus.

However, what Zhao Rui could not have imagined was that the flying sword could only leave a very shallow wound on the steel-toothed octopus, which healed in just a few breaths.

"Squeak..." The steel-toothed octopus became even more violent. It waved its huge tentacles and with a casual pull, dozens of flying swords disappeared.

“That’s a bit troublesome!” Zhao Rui frowned slightly, changed his sword moves, and shouted loudly: “Ten thousand swords merge into one!”

The moment the word "合" landed on the ground, countless flying swords, like young swallows flying into the forest, turned into four giant golden swords as wide as benches in front of the steel-toothed octopus.

"Kill!" Four giant golden swords, with endless sharpness, rushed straight towards the steel-toothed octopus.

Seeing the flying sword coming, the steel-toothed octopus suddenly opened its huge mouth and spit out three bubbles. The bubbles swelled when they met water and soon turned into a water shield as tall as a person.

The whistling flying sword plunged into the water shield and gradually stopped, like a bug in amber.

"Oh no!" Zhao Rui made a series of hand gestures, but the three flying swords did not move at all.

As for the last flying sword, it was caught by the steel-toothed octopus and transformed into pure energy with a snapping sound.

"I didn't expect that the water shield can also be used to blow bubbles." Zhao Rui was full of surprise, but he smiled in an instant and said, "Then I'll let you see popcorn. Qiankun borrows the magic, fire virtue is boundless, explode!"

When he spoke of the immeasurable virtue of fire, the three shafts of huge golden light suddenly shone, rapidly heating up, and in the blink of an eye they became like red-hot iron blocks.

As soon as the word "explode" came out, the three giant swords immediately exploded and turned into countless two-finger-wide red small swords, rushing in all directions.

When water and fire intersect, countless bubbles immediately evaporate and squeeze the space inside the water shield.

In just a moment, the three water shields collapsed in the tremor.

"Kill!" Zhao Rui gave an order, and the red little sword rushed towards the steel-toothed octopus again like a swarm of locusts.

The steel-toothed octopus narrowed its eyes, and all eight claws moved, waving its whip-like tentacles and lashing out at countless small red swords.

But this time, the small swords not only left wounds, but also burned countless blisters, and some even pierced into the skin, burning it to a char.

"Squeak..." The steel-toothed octopus screamed in pain.

Under the stimulation of pain, the steel-toothed octopus went crazy, and its whip-like tentacles left afterimages, quickly consuming the small red sword.

Soon, only a few scarlet swords were left.

At this point, a faint green light began to glow all over the Steel-toothed Octopus' body, and it began to recover from its injuries.

In just three or five breaths, those shocking scars were completely healed, as if they had never existed.

The steel-toothed octopus moved its tentacles and looked directly at Zhao Rui with its small blue eyes, as if to say, "What can you do to me!"

When their eyes met, the sea water seemed to freeze for a moment.

"It seems that's the only trick I can use!" Zhao Rui sighed, and once again made a sword gesture, creating countless small red swords.
