Chapter 2870: The bondage of water and wood, the fierce rock of fire and earth

The battle between Cao Qiudao and Kong Xuan actually didn't have much suspense. Cao Qiudao couldn't defeat Kong Xuan even after burning up his inner strength, so his ending would be that he would be dragged to death by Kong Xuan.

Of course, the process of this battle was still very dangerous.

After Cao Qiudao burned his internal energy, his combat power was still higher than that of Kong Xuan. In the state of burning internal energy, his power was almost too much to be consumed. Kong Xuan did not dare to confront him head-on, and could only be forced to resort to evasive and defensive tactics to delay it. time.

But fighting is all about momentum, so there is a saying that if you defend for a long time, you will lose.

In the early days of the war, under Cao Qiudao's powerful offensive, even someone as powerful as Kong Xuan inevitably fell into a disadvantage and was gradually suppressed by him, with little ability to fight back.

When he was about to lose his defense, Kong Xuan had no choice but to use his unique defensive skill, the five-color canopy.

The five-color canopy is a move created by Kong Xuan based on the principle of the five elements. The five-color aura condensed from the five different attributes of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, circulates and endlessly, forming a very strong defense. , it is almost impossible to be broken by an opponent below the peak of the grand master.

It is precisely because of this move that Kong Xuan is inherently invincible in battles at the same level, because no one can break his defense.

Cao Qiudao was also disgusted by Kong Xuan's five-color canopy. After burning up his inner strength, his combat power was higher than Kong Xuan's, but he never expected that Kong Xuan's defensive power was stronger than his offensive power.

As powerful as Cao Qiudao in the state of burning internal energy, even with one full blow, he could not break the defense of the five-color canopy, and it would take two strikes.

But when Cao Qiudao broke the five-color canopy with two strikes, Kong Xuan was able to condense a new five-color shield.

In this regard, Cao Qiudao had no good solution. He could only continue to break the shield, and then Kong Xuan rebuilt the shield. This cycle continued, and the battle situation was temporarily deadlocked.

He was unable to defeat Kong Xuan and failed to force the opponent to burn his internal energy. Cao Qiudao was extremely anxious. He didn't want his act of burning internal energy to be meaningless, so his brain was running wildly, trying to think of a solution, but the five-color canopy was It's too confusing and disgusting.

What Cao Qiudao didn't know was that he was actually the first person to forcibly break the five-color canopy after Kong Xuan created it.

Kong Xuan usually only uses the five-color canopy in group battles. In one-on-one battles with the same level, Kong Xuan is also the one who takes the initiative to attack. There is basically no opponent who can defend him, so there is no need to use it.

Although Kong Xuan had also fought against Taiqing and Styx, their opponent's level was much higher than his own, so even if he used the five-color canopy, he would definitely not be able to defend against them.

Therefore, although the five-color canopy move is powerful, it is a bit useless for Kong Xuan, and the number of times it can be used is only a handful, because the strong one cannot use it, and the weak one has no need to use it.

Kong Xuan would only use it in group battles with multiple groups. The reason why he was able to single-handedly challenge a powerful general from Qi State and retreat unscathed was because of the terrifying defensive power of the Five Color Canopy.

Kong Xuan originally thought that the Five-Colored Canopy move would never be broken, because he wouldn't be able to use it with those who were stronger than him, and couldn't use it with those who were weaker than him, but it turned out that he still thought too much. There is no invincible move in this world. There are only invincible people.

The five-color canopy that Yin Shou and the three generals couldn't break was finally broken by Cao Qiudao with only two blows. This really shocked Kong Xuan to the point where he couldn't even speak. He also realized that he had underestimated the power of the great master of swordsmanship to burn his internal energy. .

No one knows the defensive power of the five-color canopy better than Kong Xuan, and apart from this move, he has no stronger defensive moves, so he can only use the five-color canopy for defense.

The reason why the five-color canopy's defense is strong is not because of Kong Xuan's powerful skills, nor how brilliant the move itself is, but because of the principle of the mutual generation of the five elements. Once the move is completed, it will continue to grow and become a self-contained whole. Therefore, this move The consumption is actually smaller than Cao Qiudao's moves.

If Kong Xuan can keep using the Five-Color Canopy, it will naturally consume Cao Qiudao's skill until it is exhausted. But the problem is that Kong Xuan's skill is limited. The consumption of the Five-Color Canopy is not small, but if it is used continuously, it will be delayed first. The one who died must be Kong Xuan himself.

The Grand Master can restore his power by absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth, and Kong Xuan also has a special secret method for restoring his power in battle.

Among the five elements attributes, the wood type has the weakest attack and defense power, but the strongest recovery and durability.

Kong Xuan's Five Elements Divine Skill combines the advantages of the Five Elements attributes, so how could he not vigorously exploit the advantages of the Wood element in recovery.

But even if Kong Xuan's recovery ability before battle is three times that of a regular grand master, under such a fierce battle, his recovery speed is still far behind his expenditure.

With no choice, Kong Xuan could only reduce the defense area of ​​the five-color canopy. With the same defense power, if the area of ​​the shield was doubled, the consumption would naturally be doubled, thus increasing his continuous combat capability.

But this alone was unable to stop Cao Qiudao's offensive, so while Kong Xuan used the five-color canopy to defend, he also used the 'Wood Stretch' to trap the enemy, hoping to buy himself some reaction time.

As Kong Xuan used his power, the grass and vines under Cao Qiudao's feet all spontaneously condensed into ropes, which were bound to his hands and feet from all directions.

Seeing this, Cao Qiudao quickly evaded. His speed was so fast that the straw rope couldn't keep up with him, let alone tie him up.

"Kong Xuan, you have quite a few tricks up your sleeve. You've already used this trick before, and you can tie up a junior like Xia Houlan. Want to tie me up? It's just a dream."

Cao Qiudao sneered and said sarcastically, hoping to provoke the other party and make him fight head-on, instead of hiding away from the fight.

Kong Xuan didn't care about this at all. While quickly avoiding the opponent's pursuit, he also increased the output of his skills. At the same time, he responded: "So what if you have used it? It's a good trick, don't be afraid of old tricks."

As soon as Kong Xuan finished speaking, dozens of straw ropes came towards Cao Qiudao from all directions.

This time Cao Qiudao was inevitable, but as soon as he entangled Cao Qiudao's hands and feet, he was burned to ashes by the flames burning on the Gangqi armor, let alone the effect of blocking the enemy.

When Kong Xuan saw this, he wished he could slap himself. He was busy stalling for time, but he forgot that the wood element's energy was restrained by the fire element. Although the technique Cao Qiudao practiced was not of the fire type and could not restrain the wood type, the reason why his internal energy burned when burned was because it had fire attributes after burning. Naturally, it was impossible to control all the wood type moves innately. The wooden branches of the wood system are tied up.

"Then let's try this trick again, the concealment of water."

After saying that, Kong Xuan, who had been running away, suddenly turned back. After taking a step forward, a large amount of mist appeared in the surrounding area. Then the big knife in his hand emitted an icy blue light, and then slashed out two water-attribute sword energy.

Cao Qiudao did not expect that Kong Xuan would suddenly counterattack, so he was caught off guard and subconsciously launched a counterattack. However, after breaking through two sword qi in succession, he was hit by the hidden third sword qi.

What the water hides is this third strike, while the first two strikes are just bait.

Water can defeat fire, but the water attribute sword energy was unable to break through Cao Qiudao's Gang Qi armor after it was struck.

After only a stalemate for a period of time, the violent energy was offset, but it also caused considerable impact damage to Cao Qiudao.

Seeing this, Kong Xuan knew that before Cao Qiudao's inner strength was exhausted, he could not defeat the opponent at all, so he could only continue to implement delaying tactics and not confront the opponent head-on.

In the middle of the war, Kong Xuan, who had been passively beaten, finally exposed his flaws due to excessive consumption of moves and exhaustion.

If it weren't for the timely support from Qu Yi outside the battlefield, he might have been injured by Cao Qiudao.

Qu Yi launched catapults and crossbows to support Kong Xuan, but the attack speed of stone bullets and crossbow arrows could not catch up with Cao Qiudao's speed, let alone hit, so most of them missed, but Due to the large number, a small number of them hit Cao Qiudao.

The attack speed of the stone bullets was too slow, and if it didn't hit Cao Qiudao, it would be broken into pieces.

The crossbow arrows fired by the bed crossbow were fast and numerous, and Cao Qiudao could not intercept them all. However, the crossbow arrows could not penetrate his Gang Qi armor, so he could only use the impact force to stop Cao Qiudao.

Cao Qiudao finally created a good opportunity, but was ruined by Qu Yi. Naturally, he was very angry. At the same time, he also realized that without solving Qu Yi off the court, he would not have a chance to defeat Kong Xuan, so He abandoned Kong Xuan and went straight to Quyi.

Not only did Qu Yi not panic at all when he saw this, he was actually overjoyed.

Previously, when Cao Qiudao was chasing Kong Xuanda, his path was curved, making it difficult to aim with either a catapult or a crossbow.

But now that Cao Qiudao has arrived, his path has become a straight line, so the catapult and bed crossbow can sleep well.

Qu Yi immediately ordered to focus on Cao Qiudao, a hundred catapults, and three thousand various crossbows in the first camp. The firepower was fully activated in an instant, but it could not hurt Cao Qiudao at all, it only slowed down his speed. .

Seeing this, Kong Xuan adjusted his breath and recovered, and then continued to fight with Cao Qiudao. After all, if he didn't care, even if Qu Yi had twice as many troops, he would still die under Cao Qiudao's sword.

Cao Qiudao wanted to kill Kong Xuan, he had to kill Qu Yi first, but if he wanted to kill Qu Yi, he had to get rid of Kong Xuan, but he couldn't get rid of Kong Xuan, so he could only abandon Qu Yi to kill Kong Xuan, so that these two people He couldn't kill any of them.

With Kong Xuan's delaying tactics and Qu Yi's off-site support, Kong Xuan fought with Cao Qiudao for a full hour and a half before Cao Qiudao's momentum weakened, which also meant that his power was about to be exhausted.

It was not Kong Xuan's character to wait until Cao Qiudao's power was exhausted before killing him, a useless person, so he decided to take advantage of the weakening of the combat power of many parties to kill him forcefully.

Kong Xuan took a deep breath, challenged his own condition, and then tore off the damaged armor on his body, revealing his strong muscles.

This armor was given to Kong Xuan by Ying Hao. It was beautiful and had strong defensive power. Kong Xuan liked it very much. Unfortunately, he only used it once and it was damaged beyond repair by Cao Qiudao.

Before he could take a breath, Kong Xuan had to jump to avoid the violent sword energy from Cao Qiudao, and a sword mark of tens of meters was cut on the ground under his feet.

In the airborne state, Kong Xuan held a knife in his right hand, but pointed at Cao Qiudao with his left hand, and shouted: "The bondage of water and wood."

The next second, countless grass and vines turned into ropes and were tied to Cao Qiudao from all directions.

"Huh, no matter how many times I try, it's useless."

After Cao Qiudao snorted coldly, he immediately used his power to burn the straw rope, but he did not expect that the arrogance on the Gangqi Armor failed to burn the straw rope this time.

"What? How is this possible?"

Cao Qiudao looked shocked. After taking a closer look, he discovered that the slender straw rope was also wrapped with a layer of water-based Gang Qi. It was this layer of Gang Qi that blocked the burning of the Gang Qi armor.

It's true that fire can defeat wood, but Kong Xuan's Water and Wood Bound move is not a pure wood move, but a trapping enemy move that combines water and wood elements. Water also overcomes fire, so the straw rope is not so fast. was burned.

It is naturally impossible to trap Cao Qiudao, who is burning with internal energy, with only the grass rope blessed with water and wood energy. However, it is still possible to tie the opponent for a second or two, and this second or two is enough for Kong Xuan to launch a series of attacks. Recruited.

Kong Xuan, who was in the airborne state, saw that Cao Qiudao was struggling hard and had broken most of the straw ropes. Not only did he not care at all, but a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, because his new move had already been prepared.

"Fire Rock of Fire and Earth."
