I am a shooter
Chapter 31 The Weird Old Man
Time flies, and a month later, Shao Sect became lively again, and Qingyi also returned to the sect. Although Liao Qingxuan could not go back, the head of the family still asked Qingyi to bring back many good things, including the materials needed to make the spiritual knife for Ning Shu last time.
Qing Yi landed, smiled and said to Ning Shu and the others:
"Miss, Xiaoshu, I'm back."
"By the way, Miss, I brought back everything you asked me to do."
Liao Qingxuan nodded and asked:
"Is father okay?"
Qingyi nodded, came to Liao Qingxuan, and said softly:
"The head of the family said: Take care of yourself. He will come to see you when the situation on the front line eases a little."
After hearing this, Liao Qingxuan smiled and turned to Ning Shu and said:
"Shu'er, you can take a break now and see what goodies Qing Yi brought!"
Ever since Ning Shu found out about Lao Zhang's situation, she has worked harder and has been tougher on herself in her cultivation. Because of the changes in her Qi Sea, her strength has increased much faster than before.
Now she was holding her breath, wanting only to reach the ranks of top masters as soon as possible and kill her way through this unfair world.
A trap was being laid in a town a hundred miles away from Shaozong. Nangong Ling was communicating with an old man here. The old man was wearing a bamboo hat and looked like a typical farmer. The two did not sit together, but communicated through a wall.
At the end, Nangong Ling transmitted the message:
"I'll ask her out, and you can deal with her halfway."
The old man sitting under the eaves of the teahouse stood up, carrying firewood and gradually left.
Two months passed quickly, and Ning Shu returned to the mountainside courtyard. In the past few days, she found the strange bow she got from Elder Qilin particularly strange. With her current strength, she could only pull the bowstring a little bit, and the bow body did not change at all. What on earth was that strange feeling!
"Knock knock..." A knock on the door interrupted Ning Shu's thoughts.
I hung the bow on the wall, opened the door and saw a strange face.
When the visitor saw Ning Shu opening the door, he immediately said with a smile:
"Hello, Senior Sister Ning Shu. I am Zhu Tao, Cong Yunfeng's new disciple this year. I heard that you completed an extremely difficult task by yourself last year. I admire you so much that I want to invite you to do the contribution task together."
Cong Yun Peak, isn't that where Nangong Ling is? At this moment, Ning Shu was thinking about the real purpose of the other party's visit and asked:
"There are so many powerful sisters in our sect, why did you choose me?"
When Zhu Tao heard this, she looked helpless and said:
"I'm a newcomer and I don't have any background support. I heard that Senior Sister Ning Shu is also alone, so I wanted to ask for help."
Zhu Tao didn't know that Ning Shu had good eyesight. When she heard Ning Shu's question, the aura on her body fluctuated obviously, which showed that she was lying. In addition, Zhu Tao's expression was stiff and helpless, which aroused Ning Shu's interest.
Ning Shu pondered in her heart, and an idea popped up in her mind. This girl wanted to harm her. Could it be that she was related to the assassination in the dark building? If she couldn't hide, then let her do it. So she said:
"In that case, let's go together."
When Zhu Tao heard this, her aura fluctuated again. She immediately told Ning Shu the departure time and mission status, and left in a hurry.
Ning Shu sighed in her heart. She wanted to see who made such a poor excuse. Since there were still ten days left, she had to prepare well.
Cong Yunfeng, Nangong Ling listened to Zhu Tao's report and said contemptuously:
"Well done. I didn't expect Ning Shu to be such an empty-headed person. After this is done, I will reunite your family."
Ning Shu was prepared, so when facing unknown danger, she prepared a big gift for the other party. Looking at the several highly poisonous medicinal herbs in front of her, she immediately had an idea in her mind.
The tenth day soon arrived. Zhutao came alone and took Ningshu to their destination. One day later, they came to a lake, which was the mission site that Zhutao mentioned this time - Hanshui Lake. There was a stone at the bottom of the lake called filter stone, which was used in the quenching pool for weapons to increase the hardness of the weapons.
However, the filter stone is usually occupied by a monster, which is a giant-clawed crab monster. The filter stone is the stone it uses to build its nest. Therefore, for a cultivator to take the stone is like dismantling its nest. It is difficult for ordinary cultivators to deal with it in the water, and the giant-clawed crab monster usually lives in pairs, a male and a female. So after the two of them divided it, they dived into the lake.
The two stopped at Hanshui Lake. At this moment, Zhu Tao spoke stiffly:
"Sister, let me go down first to find out the situation, and then come back to find you to go down together."
Ning Shu didn't care and just nodded in agreement. At this moment, an old man in the distance caught her attention. The old man looked like an ordinary farmer, but the energy lines in his body were thick and the light ball in his dantian was majestic and powerful. The key point was that the aura emanating from the old man made her feel dangerous.
Ning Shu thought to himself, it looks like this person is here to set my trap.
Ning Shu gently pinched her right hand, and the liquid in her hand flowed into the scabbard. This liquid was her special 'weapon', attached to the blade. As long as there was a wound, it could flow through the Qi lines, fill the whole body, and poison the heart meridians.
Zhu Tao dived down and there was no more movement. The old man took a step forward and came close to Ning Shu.
Seeing this, Ning Shu also spoke to test the truth:
"Senior, are you here to kill me?"
Unexpectedly, the old man smiled and nodded in response. The next moment, the old man's momentum suddenly rose, and a strange phenomenon flashed behind him, and the three-foot green sword on his waist flew out and came towards Ning Shu's face.
This old man was actually at the peak of the Huihai stage. The sword he wielded made a sound of breaking through the air and was extremely powerful, arriving in front of Ning Shu in an instant.
Seeing this, Ning Shu did not panic. He leaned back, drew the sword in his hand, exerted force from his waist, and spun his whole body with the long sword.
When the flying sword failed, it immediately turned around and stabbed Ning Shu. In a moment, the two had exchanged dozens of moves.
The old man still smiled, swung the flying sword back, and took a step forward to attack Ning Shu again.
Ning Shu was not at all relaxed just now. Fortunately, he had practiced with his master in the past few months and mastered many close combat skills. The old man in front of him was by no means comparable to the ordinary Huihai period sword cultivator. The force of his flying sword was very strong every time. Every time the swords came into contact, his hands felt numb.
Seeing the old man coming with a sword, Ning Shu was waiting for this opportunity, fearing that the other party would continue to consume him from a distance.
Hold the knife with both hands, counter the opponent's moves and look for opportunities.
The flying sword fell into the old man's hands, and its power became even greater. The old man's first move when he got close to him was the shaking sword shadow, as if several swords were struck at once. It seemed like he was taking several moves with one of his moves, and one strike made Ning Shu retreat directly backwards.
The old man took the opportunity to catch up again and swung another huge sword energy at Ning Shu who was still flying backwards.
Ning Shu faced the powerful attack, and the yin and yang power surged in his body. He held Piaoxue in both hands to meet the sword energy, drew a circle, and threw the sword energy back!
Yin Yang Sutra Second Level - Reversal!
However, this reversal almost made her lose strength in both hands. This old man was indeed very skilled and had a deep understanding of the way of the sword.
When the old man holding the sword saw this scene, he was shocked. He stopped rushing forward and chopped down with the sword again, colliding with the huge sword energy that came back and neutralizing the move.
The old man still smiled, but he had made up his mind that this woman had strange skills, so he had to fight her quickly. After the attack, he used his legs to quickly approach Ning Shu again.
After Ning Shu steadied his body, he held the sword with both hands, opened his field, integrated the sword elements into the sword, used the sword's advantages, turned around and chopped the sword down, and used the move "Ba Dao - Eagle Return" to move towards the old man.
The old man immediately put away his sword and raised it, his body paused. This girl had not reached the Jugong stage, but she had already opened her domain. He was immediately even more horrified.
The advantage of swordsmanship over the long sword is that it is flexible and fast. After a sharp upward move, he immediately stabbed straight with the sword. Seeing this, Ning Shu followed the upward force and drew a circle with the long sword and moved towards the old man again.
With the help of the old man's power and the reversal of yin and yang, Ning Shu's seemingly random attack forced the old man to put away his sword again to block.
The two men attacked as fast as lightning, with hundreds of moves in an instant. At this moment, the old man's sword-holding hand was already numb and trembling, and the same was true for Ning Shu. The two men separated temporarily and fought a hundred meters apart.
After stabilizing his body, the old man knew that if he did not use his ultimate move, Ning Shu would escape, and he himself might even be in danger. A little girl in the late stage of spiritual transformation was so powerful. No wonder the double ghost mission failed!
Thinking of this, the old man gathered his sword intent, stretched out his right hand, combined his index finger and middle finger, and the flying sword stood on his two fingers. An astonishing momentum continued to rise, and the sword intent continued to gather. A huge sword appeared on his fingers, and the huge sword kept shrinking until it stopped at the size of a flying sword.
In Ning Shu's eyes, the old man's whole body was shaking wildly, and all the power in his dantian was released. This was the old man accumulating power to use a big move! In this case, a crazy idea emerged in her mind - fight! She held the knife with both hands to accumulate power, and the field shrank. Today, she would use all her strength to fight this move, as long as she could break the opponent's skin!
The long sword was shrouded in five colors, and the black liquid underneath was compressed into powder, filling the blade, waiting for an opportunity to enter the opponent's body.
When the old man opened his eyes, the accumulated strength was completed, as if one person and one finger merged into one, and went towards Ning Shu. But when he opened his eyes, he saw five colors entwined on the blade. He was suddenly shocked and dissipated some of his strength. He exclaimed in his heart that this woman possessed all five elements, she was simply a monster!
At this moment, Ning Shu used a move called 'Ba Dao - Eagle Strike' and the man and the sword seemed to merge into one.
"Swish..." A knife and a sword, two spiritual weapons collided, a flash of light passed by, and the two people separated.
A wound cut by a sharp sword went from his left hand to his left shoulder, blood dripped down the handle onto the long sword, and a small cut appeared on the old man's waist.
The old man looked down, turned around and took advantage of the victory again. At this moment, the opponent's left hand was disabled, so he had to seize the opportunity. Ning Shu, who also turned around, saw tiny black dots in the opponent's energy line, which quickly spread all over his body.
Seeing the old man approaching in an instant, Ning Shu gripped the long sword tightly in her right hand and turned her body. At this moment, she only needed to delay for a moment to win.
The old man's sword stabbings were very swift, and in a moment Ning Shu had several sword wounds all over his body. While the old man had just hit the blade with his sword, Ning Shu used the force to quickly retreat.
Before Ning Shu could steady himself, the old man attacked again with his legs. Ning Shu saw the black dots in the old man's dantian filling up quickly, but at this moment something strange happened, and the old man stumbled and fell down.
Seeing Ning Shu gradually approaching, the old man realized that the knife he had just used was poisoned, and this woman seemed to be more suitable for assassination than himself.
When Ning Shu approached, she found that the old man was still smiling, which was extremely strange. Without thinking too much, she turned her hand into a knife and stabbed it directly into the old man's qi sea. A suction force suddenly came from Ning Shu's hand, and the cultivation in the old man's qi sea flowed along Ning Shu's arm into her qi sea.
This is what Ning Shu discovered after receiving spiritual energy from her master twice. She seemed to have developed the ability to devour through the combination of Tai Chi and Yin Yang Sutra. However, Ning Shu had never had the opportunity to try it. Today, the strangely smiling old man opposite her could give her a chance to verify it.
As the old man's spiritual power was sucked out, his Dantian was broken, his Qi Sea collapsed, and his Qi and blood instantly declined. At this moment, the old man's mouth was slightly open, and a strange beetle was lying on the old man's tongue. As the old man's cultivation disappeared and his Qi and blood declined, the beetle seemed to want to escape, pulling out the ten insect legs that had pierced his tongue, and quickly jumped out to escape.
Seeing this, Ning Shu swung his long sword and slashed several times in the air. The beetle was chopped into pieces by the falling snow and turned into snowflakes.
At this moment, the old man's smile disappeared and he finally returned to normal. His mouth trembled as if he had not spoken for a long time. He spoke a hoarse and small voice to Ning Shu:
"Thank you, little girl. I am finally free. Everything I have is a token of my gratitude to you."
After saying this, the old man showed a genuine smile. He had waited for this long-lost freedom for a long, long time... The old man's body broke into pieces, his flesh and blood withered and disappeared, turning into dry bones. A storage ring rolled out from under his clothes.
Seeing this scene, Ning Shu sighed:
"You're welcome! This dark building is really powerful. Sooner or later I will destroy it!"
