Chapter 253 Divine Firmament Sword 1
In the blink of an eye, Duan Zhengchun and the old man in black robes exchanged another blow!
With a loud bang, Duan Zhengchun was sent flying backward once again!
But Duan Zhengchun seemed to possess an immortal body. Every time he fell, he would get up again and rush towards the black-robed old man time and time again, which moved Li Mochou and the others below.
"No, we have to help Benefactor Duan, or he'll die!"
As Ku Hui struggled to speak, she tried to move closer to the black-robed old man in mid-air, but all her attempts were in vain!
The others were the same; although they also wanted to help Duan Zhengchun, they were powerless to resist the immense, invisible pressure!
Duan Zhengchun fell down again and again, only to rise again and again. Not only did he not die, but the fighting spirit permeating the air seemed to grow stronger and stronger!
Moreover, a careful observer would notice that although he kept falling, the distance he flew backward each time was gradually decreasing!
The old man in black robes seemed to be getting annoyed, and his attacks became more and more vicious, but he could not kill Duan Zhengchun each time!
"No, you're not an ordinary person either!"
"Absolutely not!"
After the old man in black robes repelled Duan Zhengchun once again, he shook his head and said something that was full of doubt.
Duan Zhengchun did not answer, but got up again and charged towards the old man in black robes without hesitation!
When the two exchanged another blow, Duan Zhengchun coughed up a mouthful of blood!
Just when everyone thought he couldn't hold on any longer, Duan Zhengchun suddenly roared to the sky and then thrust out his sword, aiming straight for the old man in black robes' vital point!
As the sword light flashed, the black-robed elder dared not be careless. He leaped backward, then quickly flipped his hands, creating several hand seals. Suddenly, he probed the void and pressed down hard on Duan Zhengchun!
Then, something incredible happened!
Suddenly, a green-glowing disc appeared in the sky, seemingly engraved with countless strange symbols and characters, and pressed down directly on Duan Zhengchun's head!
"A rune array! This is the legendary rune array!"
"Mr. Duan, retreat quickly!"
Ku Hui's expression changed drastically, and he immediately spoke up, loudly reminding her.
But it was too late. Duan Zhengchun fell from mid-air and knelt heavily on the ground, crushed by the rune-covered disc and unable to get up.
Duan Zhengchun felt the continuous pressure coming from above his head and couldn't help but spit out another mouthful of blood. His face was ashen!
He tried to get up, but found that he was no match for the disc above his head!
"Duan Lang?!"
Li Mochou cried out in alarm, trying to rush to Duan Zhengchun's side, but found that she could only take half a step even with all her might, and blood was already flowing from her mouth and nose!
"Whether you are made of flesh and blood or not, before me, you only have one fate: death!"
The old man in black robes spoke coldly, then slowly floated in front of Duan Zhengchun. With a look of disdain, he slowly extended his right hand and struck Duan Zhengchun's head with a palm strike.
He has victory in his grasp!
Or rather, he never thought he would lose from the very beginning! And he couldn't possibly lose!
"Divine Firmament...One Sword!"
However, at this moment, Duan Zhengchun, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly roared wildly. Then, the Lingxiao Sword that had fallen to the ground suddenly sprang up, broke through the suppression of the talisman array, and instantly stabbed into the chest of the black-robed old man!
At the same time, Duan Zhengchun broke through the control of the talisman array and rushed towards the black-robed old man like lightning, following closely behind the Lingxiao Sword!
"Uh..."
In the blink of an eye, the Lingxiao Sword pierced through the black-robed old man's chest, followed by Duan Zhengchun's thunderous kick!
With a muffled groan, the black-robed elder, who was certain of victory, staggered back several steps, clutching the piercing wound on his chest with trembling hands!
Immediately afterwards, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the old man in black robes collapsed to the ground. As his black robes fell off, a ferocious face filled with disbelief was revealed!
Several ordination scars were clearly visible on the top of his head!
Only then did everyone finally see his face clearly! Even the remaining Vajra Sect disciples were seeing their sect leader for the first time!
He was a monk!
Duan Zhengchun dealt a devastating blow to the black-robed elder!
"What kind of swordsmanship is that?"
The old man in black robes looked down at the wound that was gushing blood, and asked a question in a trembling voice.
He never expected that someone could break his talisman array, let alone that someone could seriously injure him.
"The Divine Firmament Sword Technique consists of only one sword strike, without any fixed moves or styles, yet its variations are unpredictable!"
"I just created it!"
"Seriously, you're nothing special!"
Duan Zhengchun barely supported his body with his sword, coldly looked at the old man in black robes, said something indifferently, and then curled his lips into a smug sneer.
He originally thought he was going to die, but at the last critical moment, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and created a set of sword techniques!
If it weren't for the fact that he had multiple supreme internal energy cultivation techniques protecting him, he would never have had the chance to unleash that final sword strike!
He wants to thank every benefactor he has met along the way!
If it weren't for them, tonight would probably be the end of his life.
"You are no ordinary person! You are definitely not!"
"I have attained the highest level of cultivation; no mere mortal could possibly harm me!"
"Who the hell are you?!"
The old man in black robes kept shaking his head, muttering to himself, his face full of disbelief.
"If I told you I came from another world, would you believe me?"
Duan Zhengchun looked coldly at the old man in black robes, hesitated for a moment, and then suddenly smiled and said.
This was the first time he had told anyone about his bizarre experience! Because he knew no one would really believe him.
But upon hearing this, the old man in black robes suddenly froze, staring at Duan Zhengchun in horror, unable to utter a single word for a moment, because he had truly seen another world!
Although he was not fortunate enough to go to that world, the martial arts he possessed were indeed closely related to that unfamiliar world that he longed for so much!
"It's really you!"
Just then, Ku Hui slowly approached, looked at the black-robed old man sitting on the ground with a terrified expression, and spoke solemnly.
After confirming it, he was certain that the person in front of him was the Fire Attack Monk who had injured a Shaolin monk and fled to the Western Regions!
Now that Huo Gong Toutuo is seriously injured, the invisible pressure has naturally disappeared, and everyone has regained their freedom and can move around at will.
As for the remaining disciples of the Vajra Sect, after Duan Zhengchun severely injured the Fire Attack Monk, they stood obediently in place and dared not make any further rash moves.
Upon hearing the words, Huogong Toutuo slowly turned his head to look at Ku Hui, then revealed a disdainful sneer, his eyes filled with hatred.
"Do you still remember what crimes you committed at the Shaolin Temple on Mount Song?!"
Ku Hui asked with a stern face.
"Don't bring up the past with me again! When I was bullied back then, who among you stood up for me?!"
"Stop acting all accusatory! I have no regrets about what I did back then! If I had another chance, I would make the same choice!"
Huo Gong Toutuo snorted coldly and said disdainfully.
"I can't believe that even now you still haven't repented. But so be it. Since you're about to die, I don't want to bring up the past anymore!"
"May you turn back to the right path in your next life!"
Ku Hui frowned, hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said something, then stepped aside.
"Do it!"
"Since things have come to this, I have nothing more to say. But don't be too smug. Your so-called number one in the world is nothing but a joke in the eyes of those people!"
"There are heavens beyond heavens, and people beyond people. Only after you've been there can you understand that ordinary people like you are nothing but ants!"
Huo Gong Toutuo looked coldly at Duan Zhengchun and said disdainfully.
Duan Zhengchun broke free from Li Mochou's support and slowly approached the Fire Attack Monk, saying in a deep voice, "Who are those people?!"
"Where are you talking about?!"
He had witnessed the power of the Fire Attack Monk firsthand, and couldn't help but wonder where he had learned those incredible martial arts skills.
And what exactly was that rune array that appeared above his head?!
