I formed the strongest swordsman group

At the very moment when the broom head was about to hit his face, Qingdeng swiftly turned his body to the right side by virtue of the fighting instinct and muscle memory he had cultivated in previous death fights.

The broom head whizzed past Qingdeng's right side of the face, and the piercing sound of piercing the air so close at hand made Qingdeng's hair stand on end uncontrollably.

If it is hardened by this broom head... Although it will not cause death, the discount of the bridge of the nose is a certainty.

The next moment after dodging Tiancangxiao's sudden attack, Qingdeng jumped backwards, while pulling away the distance from Tiancangxiao, his right hand reflexively touched Dingguishen on his left waist.

"What are you doing?!" Qing Deng's face became extremely gloomy in an instant.

Tian Cangxiao turned a deaf ear to Qingdeng's harsh questioning.

With no expression on his face, he slowly retracted the broom in front of him, peeling off part of the bristles as if trying to adjust the state of the broom.

"God." Sha Zhong, whose tone was always calm when speaking, had a rare slight ups and downs in his tone at this moment, "Are you... do you want to start now?"

Tiancang Xiao nodded:

"Now is a good time to fight with Mr. Orange, isn't it? Anyway, sooner or later, we will have to fight with Mr. Orange, so why not take advantage of this and get things done quickly."

Qing Deng couldn't understand a word of what Sha Zhong and Tian Cang Xiao said.

start now? Will you fight me sooner or later?

unclear meaning.

Qingdeng was confused, his body was tense with his thoughts imprisoned.

However, this is only a momentary matter.

because--

"Mr. Orange...I'm on it!"

Before he finished speaking, he raised his hand, and with a "hoo", the broom head, which was covered with a lot of dust, roared and rushed towards Qingdeng's face again!

The new round of offensive launched by Tiancang Xiao interrupted Qingdeng's thoughts, leaving Qingdeng with no time to pay attention to those twists and turns.

Although I don't know why the old man suddenly attacked him... But it's always right to disarm the old man first and make him lose his fighting ability!

Qingdeng jumped up lightly, and easily dodged Tian Cangxiao's broom.

The moment his feet jumped up, there was only a "chuckle"—Qingdeng pulled out the ghosts and gods from his hands and raised them above his head in the above posture!

The moment before landing, Qingdeng took advantage of the momentum and chopped Ding Guishen down in the air, hitting the broomstick in the middle.

However... the palms did not feel the expected feeling of the wooden broom stick being cut off.

clang!

The deafening sound of metal and iron striking each other turned into sound waves, shaking the surrounding atmosphere.

The numb feeling spread along the blade, palm and arm to Qingdeng's whole body.

The broomstick that had been severely cut by Qing Deng was intact... because the broomstick was made of iron!

Qingdeng's pupils were instantly filled with astonishment.

Because the surface of the stick is painted with a layer of wood color, and Tian Cangxiao's movement of waving the broom is too easy, people can't imagine that the broom stick of this broom is actually made of solid iron.

Iron broom? Had the old fellow just been sweeping the ground here with an iron broom?

Broom sticks of this length and thickness are all made of solid iron...they weigh at least one or twenty catties.

Just as Qingdeng was deeply shocked by Tiancangxiao's wrist and arm strength that could swing such a heavy "iron broom" like a lamp grass, Tiancangxiao violently exerted his arms and stood up. Open the blade of ghosts and gods.

Immediately afterwards, the broom swung horizontally, hitting Qing Deng's side.

Seeing this, Qingdeng snorted coldly, gathered his mind in an instant, temporarily suppressed the shock in his heart, and refocused his body and mind on the battle in front of him.

Qingdeng's slender body sank suddenly, and the Ding Guishen in his hand drew an arc, crossed the air, and hit the broomstick, defusing Tian Cangxiao's sweep.

The next moment, Qingdeng withdrew his front foot and knelt down.

Qingdeng's knees were about to fall to the ground—this was what Sazhong, Yae and the others saw in the eyes of the spectators.

But in fact?

The truth is, Qingdeng bends his body with this movement as if he is about to kneel down... like compressing a spring, and in an instant, he gathers huge strength in his legs and waist.

Spring burst——Qingdeng leaped into the air, and Ding Guishen, who was placed horizontally on the right side of his body, breathed out and cut through the air, and the two-finger-wide blade was directly pulled out with a needle-like light.

The point of the blade... No, it should be said that it is pointing at the back of the blade: Tian Cangxiao's arms holding the broom.

When jumping up, Qingdeng flipped his wrist, turned Ding Guishen half a circle, and turned to face the enemy with the back of his sword.

Even though Tian Cang Xiao didn't even say hello and attacked him involuntarily, and every attack was heavy and ruthless, Qingdeng decided to save Tian Cang Xiao after much deliberation and not kill Tian Cang Xiao.

There are too many things that are confusing and need help from others.

In the current environment surrounded by "unknowns", it is better to keep Tian Cangxiao alive - after all, if Tian Cangxiao is killed, there will be no one to question him.

Facing the blade that was whistling straight towards his arm, Tian Cangxiao calmly twisted his body slightly to the left. At the same time, he stepped forward and swung the broom to hit Qing Deng's waist and abdomen which was still "flying" in the air.

Relying on his powerful core strength, Qingdeng leaned back in mid-air.

Both of their attacks missed, only hitting the air.

Whether it is the arm strength that can swing an iron broom weighing one or twenty kilograms, or the quick reaction speed, and precise fighter control...all point to the same fact-this old man is by no means easy to deal with. generation!

This old guy...maybe he is someone like Boss Kiryu who "hides in the city"...!

Thinking of this, Qingdeng put away the last bit of contempt for the old man in front of him.

——Forget it! Think of it as fighting a gunslinger with a short spear!

Qingdeng glanced at Sazhong and Yae sisters who were not far away from the corner of his eyes. After being attacked by Tiancang Xiao, it was very difficult for Qingdeng to stop looking at anyone in this shrine with strange eyes.

The twins shouldn't suddenly attack me too, right?

With this feeling in mind, Qingdeng glanced around Sazhong and Yae—one of the two women quietly folded her hands in front of her body, while the other held her arms akimbo and stretched her two slender legs with great air.

Neither of the two sisters intended to attack Qingdeng.

Seeing this, Qingdeng breathed a sigh of relief... If possible, he would not want to fight this kind of kid. It doesn't matter whether you win or lose, it's not worth being happy.

Of course, Qingdeng still kept a secret eye, always paying attention to all the movements of the pair of sisters.

Following a simple "spiritual mobilization", Qingdeng's body and mind have been adjusted to a tense state of "fighting against a strong enemy".

The next moment he returned to the ground from the air, Qingdeng switched to holding the knife and dragging Ding Guishen to the lower right side of his side, and then swooped forward like a beast hunting for prey, sticking to Tian Cangxiao's flank.

The ghosts and gods placed in the lower section, like a countercurrent rushing straight into the sky, swayed towards Tian Cangxiao's chest from bottom to top.

Tiancang Xiao's white eyebrows raised slightly - a pair of thin eyes hidden under the white eyebrows, glanced at Qing Deng's knife path, and with a wave of the broom, he blocked the blade of Dingguishen.

In a blink of an eye, Tiancang Xiao abruptly put the broom back to his chest, Qingdeng saw an opportunity to take advantage of it, spread his legs apart like lightning, and with all his strength, he lifted the ghost above his head and struck down.

Although Qingdeng's attack was imposing and powerful, it was unfortunately blocked by Tian Cangxiao.

Not only did he block it, but he also made preparations for a counterattack in the defense—the moment after the blade was blocked, the extremely hard broom stick slashed towards Qingdeng's right shoulder obliquely.

clang!

Qingdeng swung his sword away.

Tian Cangxiao relentlessly adjusted the direction of the broomstick, and delivered a new blow to Qingdeng.

Then Qingdeng swung his sword and knocked him away.

clang! clang! clang! clang……

The steel sword and the iron rod...the two things turned into ethereal afterimages, collided in the air, separated, collided again, and separated again...and so on.

All of a sudden, the shadow of a knife and light danced between the two of them.

After 7 knives in a row, the heels of the two of them both raised dust, and the two sides crossed their bodies.

The two fought so fiercely just now, no matter whether it was the blade of the ghost-fixing sword or the broom stick, the power contained in it was impossible to ignore.

As a result, if you take a closer look - the old and the young are all unscathed!

Neither of the two left the slightest wound on the other's body... In the fierce knife confrontation just now, the two sides drew.

Qingdeng, who passed by Tiancangxiao, didn't run away.

After rushing a step away, Qingdeng raised his right foot, kicked forward, and forced his body to a stop with brute force.

The talent "Cat Turning" played a big role at this moment.

The body balance ability endowed by the "cat turning around" made Qing Dengyu, who was forced to stop by brute force, stabilize his body in an instant and turned to face Tian Cangxiao.

Tiancang Xiao almost stopped Yu Tong and turned his head to face him.

The fierce confrontation resumed,

The two, who had regained their posture and faced each other, launched the second round of mutual attack.

There was a whirlwind at the tip of Dingguishen's sword—Qingdeng snatched the first attack.

With the momentum of a white rainbow penetrating the sun, the sword light approached Tian Cangxiao's body.

Tiancang Xiao waved his broom to meet him without hesitation or hesitation.

One sword and one pole entangled again in the air.

The figures of Qingdeng and Tiancangxiao, as well as the weapons in their hands, flickered across the open space in front of the palace at dizzying speed.

Literally flickering... like stars in the night. Sometimes it is ethereal like smoke, and sometimes it condenses into a concrete entity.

After two or three clashes of sword and pole, Tian Cangxiao suddenly changed his moves after another series of clashing sounds.

I saw Tiancang Xiao's figure changed, his feet slipped suddenly, and he took a step back... But just a moment later, the old man changed his posture and chopped off the broom from above Qingdeng's head.

The old man's retreat just now hides extremely delicate and profound skills that non-martial arts people will never see.

Take a step back, change the center of gravity and posture of the body-these two movements are completed almost at the same time. And Tiancang Xiao was preparing the momentum for the next attack in the step of retreating.

This set of moves sounds very simple, but in practice... especially in this kind of fierce battle where the slightest carelessness can directly determine the outcome, it is not an ordinary difficulty.

The blow that the old man slammed from the start used the strength of his legs, waist...almost his whole body, and the strong wind and potential energy wrapped around the shaft made Qingdeng dare not be careless in the slightest.

For the sake of prudence, Qingdeng did not take Tiancangxiao's blow hard, but only tilted his body to the side, flung the dust and smoke from the broom to his side and dodged to the blind spot of Tiancangxiao's vision.

Don't let the enemy out of your field of vision - this is the principle of martial arts that laymen understand.

Tiancang Xiao hurriedly swept his gaze, chasing after Qing Deng's figure like lightning.

In just a split second, Tian Cangxiao made Qing Deng's figure reappear in front of his eyes...but at the same time, there was also the knife rushing over unexpectedly!

Qingdeng dragged Ding Guishen to the right side of his body, and used a move from the lower right to the upper left.

The timing of this attack is not vicious - it just happened to be in the short-lived gap when I moved to the blind spot of Tian Cang Xiao's vision, and Tian Cang Xiao needed time to re-lock his figure Out of the knife!

Seeing this, Tiancang Xiao suddenly opened his slender eyes wide and his pupils shrunk.

For the first time, Qingdeng saw clearly the old man's pair of thin eyes that had been hidden under the thick and long white eyebrows—bright, energetic, full of strength and a sense of...sharpness! There is no turbidity and eclipse that old people often have!

Facing Qingdeng's sharp sword that seemed to pierce the sky, Tian Cangxiao didn't back down, he swung his broom not to be outdone, and confronted Qingdeng head-on!

The blade that fixes ghosts and gods is raised from the lower section.

The handle of the iron broom fell from the upper road.

At first glance, the speed of the two weapons is indistinguishable, but Qingdeng's knife, which has a slight advantage, is slightly faster.

A faster speed... means that the weapon will be accelerated one step earlier!

clang!

Ding Guishen, who was the first to accelerate to the fastest speed, swung the broomstick away, and then attacked Tian Cangxiao's left shoulder without losing momentum.

When it was too late to say it, Tiancang Xiao let out a cold snort, his body turned sideways like origami.

Although he barely avoided being hit directly by Ding Guishen, the tip of Ding Guishen's knife still scratched Tian Cangxiao's flesh.

The sensation of the knife point touching the flesh was clearly transmitted to Qingdeng's palm.

Since Tian Cangxiao launched the surprise attack, the balance of power has been maintained, and finally there has been a change - in the round of offense and defense just now, there is no doubt that Qingdeng had the upper hand.

But Tian Cangxiao, who is old and strong, and who is as sharp as Boss Tongyu, is not like an old man at all, after all, he is not an idle person.

He immediately returned Qing Deng's blow.

I saw Tiancang Xiao with a serious face, holding the broom handle tightly with both hands, and holding the broom in front of him with a posture like the middle of the sword.

The old man's not tall figure was hidden in the shadow of the pole.

In the next moment, the old man kicked the ground with his rear foot with all his strength, and moved forward quickly with a footwork that never left the ground. Borrowing the momentum of rushing forward, he just swung the broom held in front of him and slashed forward in a daze!

Tiancang Xiao's blow was truly amazing!

The body assists the feet, the feet lead the waist, the waist guides the arms, and the arms move the wrists... Tian Cangxiao guides the power from the ground to the palms holding the broom with a very beautiful movement!

The broom stick was like a slippery poisonous snake, biting towards Qingdeng's chest... The speed of this "venomous snake" was so fast that even Qingdeng with "hawk eyes" could hardly keep up with its movements.

Qingdeng didn't have time to dodge, so he could only hold Ding Guishen in front of him——

clang!

The ear-piercing sound of weapons colliding, as well as the huge force and numbness continuously transmitted to his palms and arms, made Qingdeng's brows furrow unconsciously.

Head-to-head with this kind of hard iron... it hurts the blade the most.

Not long after it was repaired, there was a small gap in the edge of the blade...

Qingdeng felt as if he had been hit by an express train.

Involuntarily take 2 steps back.

This time, Changing Qingdeng was at a disadvantage.

However, in the blink of an eye, Qingdeng "recovered his place".

Qingdeng's legs pressed down like springs, bounced again, and flew obliquely like a swallow to a distance of 3 steps behind Tian Cangxiao's side, and then re-stabilized the ghost.

Step forward half a step, use the movement of kicking the ground to exert force, and slash Tian Cangxiao's back-the movement is like flowing water, with a heavy force.

Even though Qingdeng used the back of the saber, if his saber hits the ground, Cang Xiao will definitely feel extremely uncomfortable that day.

It was too late to say it, but Tian Cangxiao turned around lightning-fast with his left foot as the axis. In less than 2 seconds, the young and old couple faced each other again.

Relying on the centrifugal force brought by turning around, Tian Cangxiao used a "sweeping thousands of troops" to meet the shining sword light.

If Tiancang Xiao was holding a heavy-duty weapon such as a large body gun or a cross gun, then his attack must have been very powerful... But what he is using now is a broom, so No matter how you look at it, how awkward.

But the power and threat it should have are a little bit less.

The steel sword and iron rod... this is the number of times these two weapons have collided together.

As if being shaken away by the sound waves and reaction force caused by the collision of weapons, Qingdeng and Tian Cangxiao quickly retreated and pulled away at the same moment.

This is the first time since the beginning of the war, the old and young couple have put their flags down...Of course, it is temporary.

——This old man... is really not simple...

The more Qingdeng fought, the more he realized the extraordinaryness of the old man in front of him.

Judging from all signs, Tiancang Xiao has a wealth of actual combat experience, and he is definitely a ruthless character who has experienced countless bloody fights...

Why does this shrine have such highly skilled and experienced priests?

Then again, why did this old guy attack me for no reason...

More and more questions...

Although in the series of fierce fights just now, Qingdeng only fought with Tian Cangxiao evenly, and no one took advantage, but Qingdeng has already discovered a weakness of Tiancangxiao.

That is, Tian Cangxiao's physical strength is far inferior to him.

This is also a matter of course.

How old is Qing Deng? How old is Tiancang Xiao? The latter's hair and eyebrows are so white that no variegated colors can be seen.

The two fought back and forth just now, as if they had been fighting for a long time.

But in fact, even if the timer started when Tian Cangxiao yelled "Mr. Orange... I'm on!", it has only been less than 5 minutes.

Within 5 minutes, so many rounds of fierce offense and defense were exchanged... the physical consumption of people is not ordinary.

Tian Cangxiao, who was frail due to old age, was breathing a little short of breath at this time, and his wrinkled face was flushed with blood.

On the other hand, Qing Deng—except for his breathing becoming a little faster, there is no abnormality in his body.

Qingdeng not only takes advantage of his age, but also possesses three talents that are beneficial to long-term combat, namely "strengthening essence", "strengthening muscle +1" and "iron lung".

"Strengthening Essence" enhanced Qingdeng's recovery speed of energy and physical strength.

The "strong muscle +1" that has been fused once and strengthened once made Qingdeng's muscles less prone to fatigue.

"Iron lung" is to greatly improve Qingdeng's cardiopulmonary ability.

These 3 talents give Qingdeng a very outstanding "endurance ability".

From the battle with Tiancang Xiao up to now, Qingdeng hardly felt any fatigue.

The breathing rhythm is still steady, and the muscles are still full of strength.

According to Qingdeng's calculation, he can maintain the fighting intensity just now, and fight Tiancang Xiao for at least 20 minutes.

If Tiancang Xiao doesn't think of some ways to break the situation quickly, if he continues to fight like this, it will only make Qingdeng, who has a physical advantage, take advantage of it, and the balance of the battle will be tilted more and more towards Qingdeng.

Presumably, Tian Cangxiao also realized this point—his face became solemn at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Paso... the old man moved. The shallow clogs rubbed against the ground, and slowly moved to the left, leading the body to move to Qingdeng's right side little by little.

Qingdeng would not just expose his side to Tian Cangxiao's broomstick, so he also moved his feet and body along with him.

The old and the young started the "errenzhuan" with a distance of about 5 steps.

If you move one step to the right, I will move one step to the left.

You take half a body position to the left, and I hold half a body position to the right.

Never fall behind the opponent...never give the opponent any chance to take advantage of it.

The initiative of the battle has been completely controlled by Qingdeng.

For Qingdeng, he only needs to deal with Tiancangxiao slowly and consume Tiancangxiao's physical strength to win steadily.

So just tap carefully and take your time.

But Tiancang Xiao can't... If he doesn't adopt an aggressive style of play, and take advantage of the remaining energy to defeat Qingdeng in one go, then he will lose.

Knowing where his current advantages are, Qingdeng is not in a hurry right now, he quietly waits and observes Tian Cangxiao's movements.

——In short... let's slowly consume the old man's physical strength now, and wait for the time to subdue him in one go...

Seeing that Qingdeng's posture has never shown any flaws that can be exploited, Tian Cangxiao stopped his movement...Qingdeng also stopped his figure.

The old man pursed his bloodless and somewhat gray lips thoughtfully, and then lowered the iron broom in his hand with a "huh"...even the center of gravity of his whole body was extremely low.

The whole person squatted on the ground like a toad.

Although Qingdeng didn't know what the old guy was planning to do, he still held his breath, tightened his muscles and nerves, and set up a mid-section stance that could be attacked or defended, the most stable and the least error-prone, ready to deal with all kinds of attacks. Offensive, preparations for another three hundred rounds of fighting with the old man in front of him.

The confrontation between the two created an aggressive atmosphere that would make the spectators feel suffocated.

Affected by this atmosphere, the time in this small world centered on the two of them seemed to have come to a standstill at this moment.

Paso!

Tiancang Xiao suddenly shoveled off a large piece of mud with his hind legs!

The paused time re-flows now!

Qingdeng didn't act rashly. Standing in place, he assumed a posture of waiting for work at leisure.

The distance of a few steps is fleeting.

Just before the two figures were about to overlap——

"Tiancang, enough! Stop here!"

A loud shout came from the direction of the temple.

Like a machine whose power source was suddenly removed, Tiancang Xiao suddenly stopped his forward steps—the broom in his hand was only less than 50 centimeters away from Qingdeng.

While stopping, Tian Cangxiao slowly put away the broom in his hand, stuck the broom to his side and slowly stood up straight, releasing the "combat state" of lowered center of gravity and tense muscles.

The tense atmosphere that had been pervasive in this space since just now suddenly dissipated at this moment.

Although a bit sudden, Tian Cangxiao's gesture of putting down the broom this time has already announced a fact: the battle is over...

After the duel that started with Tian Cang Xiao's surprise attack and ended with Tian Cang Xiao's voluntary retreat——
