Hanging up and cultivating immortality in the troubled times

Chapter 22 The former hero

This mysterious strong man struck out with anger, and a purple-red light lit up in his palm.

Like a poisonous snake emerging from a dark cave, it swatted towards Lu Heng.

As the palm power surged, the zhenqi stirred up, causing storms and billowing sand and dust all around, trying to interfere with Lu Heng's sight.

But this is of no use.

For Lu Heng, the only thing that made him feel powerful about this mysterious strongman was his weird and inexplicable body skills. As for his martial arts in frontal combat, it was not worth mentioning.

that's the truth.

Before the mysterious strong man's palm force could reach, the black tiger soul-taking knife in Lu Heng's hand was slashed out, and the devastating storm was chopped into pieces effortlessly.

The white light condensed by the killing swordsmanship burst out at the same time, instantly covering all the opponent's movement space, making it impossible for him to escape.

In the next moment, the blade of the Black Tiger Soul-Capturing Sword and the killing sword energy were about to strike this mysterious strong man.

"Damn it!" The mysterious strong man roared hysterically.

At the same time, his body once again twisted into an extremely weird state. With his incredible body skills, he actually avoided Lu Heng's attack this time, flew back to the stone room, and grabbed the long handle inside. knife.

"Are you the only one with weapons?!"

The mysterious strong man swung his long sword and slashed forward through the air. His true energy was then aroused, and a long purple-red snake that was three to four meters long actually formed, opening its big mouth and biting at Lu Heng.

This is the sword technique of Qi Transformation Realm!
The ability to transform true energy into form is extremely powerful, far exceeding any martial arts in the seventh level of ascending to the sky. This is the core feature of the eighth level warriors who are powerful.

As soon as the purple-red zhenqi snake appeared, terrifying energy immediately filled the small underground cavity. The surrounding soil and stone walls began to tremble slightly, as if they might collapse at any time.

"It's true that we all have weapons, but your sword is not as sharp as mine!"

Lu Heng spoke calmly, like a mountain facing the gentle breeze. He raised his hand slightly, and the Black Tiger Soul-Captivating Knife killed the long snake of true energy. At the same time, he flew forward and pointed the blade at the mysterious strong man. beheaded.

Zheng!
The sound of gold and iron clashing sounded. The mysterious strong man blocked hastily with the long knife in his hand, and collided with the Black Tiger Soul-Capturing Knife.

But before he even remembered to change his moves, he felt a sudden light in his hand. The witchcraft sword in his palm was actually cut off by the opponent's black sword, and the blade full of murderous intent continued to slash at him!

"What?!" The mysterious strong man could hardly believe his eyes. He looked at the broken knife in his hand in horror and exclaimed, "How is this possible?!"

This is a treasured sword left behind by the Witch Cult!

Even if it is not a rare magic weapon, it can still be called a treasure in the world. For warriors in the eighth level and even the ninth level, it can greatly enhance their combat power.

Moreover, the entire body is made of black iron, so it should be indestructible!
Why was it cut off as soon as it collided? !

What exactly is this black knife? !

The mysterious strong man dodged again, narrowly avoiding Lu Heng's attack this time, but the horror and panic in his heart could no longer be suppressed.

He glanced at the broken knife in his hand, then looked at Lu Heng, gritted his teeth and said: "Who are you? When did people like you appear in the world?! And why do you want to kill us?"

Lu Heng's eyes were calm and he did not answer, nor did he continue to attack with the knife.

But he still raised his hand and pointed forward, and two killing sword energies immediately burst out from his fingertips, like two white electric lights, which instantly penetrated the knees of both legs of the mysterious strongman.

"Ah!" The mysterious strong man let out a scream, fell to the ground, covered his legs and roared, "Shameless!"

"Do you think that if you stop, I will stop and listen to you question me?" Lu Heng said jokingly, "I didn't expect that you, a person with evil martial arts, would still have such naive thoughts in your heart."

He did not stop his strange hobby of listening to the opponent's chatter in the middle of the fight. At least he had to subdue the enemy first and make the enemy lose the ability to resist and escape.

It would be stupid to do otherwise. "..." The mysterious strong man was speechless and trembling with anger, but he could only endure the severe pain and gritted his teeth and said, "Kill or behead him, please do as he pleases!"

"There's no rush." ​​Lu Heng walked to the side of this mysterious strong man and said with a smile, "I'll wait for someone first."

"Kill me!" the mysterious strong man roared, "Are you still thinking of humiliating me?!"

"Whatever you think." Lu Heng ignored him, but still paid attention to his movements to prevent the man from committing suicide.

After a while, a figure walked in from the narrow passage.

It was Pei Zhiqing.

Previously, Lu Heng came to chase the mysterious strong man and Fang Qian, but he did not bring her in and only asked her to wait outside to prevent her from being affected in the battle.

Now that the battle is over, she can be let in.

The ready-made encyclopedia of Jianghu is useless if you don’t use it.

As for how to notify?

Naturally, this was done through Yang Haichao, who had been turned into a ghost soldier.

"Senior, are you okay?" After Pei Zhiqing arrived here, she hurried to Lu Heng's side and asked.

Although she knew that Lu Heng was very powerful, after all, he was chasing an eighth-level warrior, so it was still somewhat dangerous.

"It's okay." Lu Heng waved his hand and smiled, then pointed at the mysterious strong man on the ground, "Do you know this person?"

"This person is...'Flying Eagle Hero' Chen Jing?!" After Pei Zhiqing saw this person's appearance clearly, she was immediately surprised, "More than ten years ago, how could a hero with a good reputation in the world... It's him?"

As soon as these words came out, the mysterious strong man on the ground felt as if he was struck by thunder. He hurriedly buried his face, as if he didn't want Pei Zhiqing to see his current appearance again.

"Hero?" Lu Heng was stunned when he heard this, and looked at this mysterious strong man with some astonishment.

This weird and evil martial arts, and the mountains of bones under the dry well...

heroes?

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it.

"Senior, he is the 'Flying Eagle Hero' Chen Jing." Pei Zhiqing thought about it carefully and confirmed again, "Twelve years ago, when I just became a disciple of Master, I was fortunate to accompany him to participate in a Shangzhou martial arts competition. A gathering of heroic heroes. At that time, he was sitting next to the master. He is the flying eagle hero praised by the world, a famous figure in the world who has ascended to the seventh level of heaven."

"He was really a hero once?" Lu Heng looked at the mysterious strong man with his face buried on the ground, and was surprised.

It took 12 years for a hero to become like this?
Is it self-destruction or other reasons?

Pei Zhiqing recalled: "I heard from my master that this Flying Eagle hero came from a humble background. When he was a boy, he reached the third level with only the basic palm skills from a family tradition. He was willing to do good and hated evil as much as he hated evil. He made a lot of achievements in the local area. name.

"Later on, he had an unexpected encounter and learned more profound martial arts. He soared to the sky. First he became famous in Shangzhou, and then he was on the Qianyuan Ranking. Many big forces wanted to recruit him, even the governor of Shangzhou at that time. He recommended him to the imperial court as an official.

"But he refused them all and chose to wander around the world alone, helping those in danger and those in need, punishing rapists and eradicating evil. He gradually became a hero who made gangsters and scoundrels fearful. His reputation as a hero was spread all over the world.

"At that time, many people felt that Chen Jing would become a great master in the future, and even start a sect..."

Having said this, she shook her head sadly and said, "It's a pity that Chen Jing disappeared not long after that party. It was rumored that he died at the hands of his enemies. Unexpectedly, he turned out to be an evil master."

"Shut up!" The mysterious strong man who had buried his face suddenly raised his head and roared with red eyes, "What do people like you from a famous family know?!

"What is good and what is evil? Aren't the so-called heroes and righteous men always a joke in your eyes?"
