Chapter 35: Chapter 35 Killing (Thanks for the support from Alliance Hierarch of Men's Science Please Go to the Second Floor.)
"Clang!"
Gu Jinlai resisted another disciple's rescue sword and, with a swing of his giant sword, he decapitated the Bai Yang disciple he had set his sights on, killing him instantly along with his sword.
In just ten breaths' time, three disciples practicing Gang Condensation and six practicing Qi Refinement had died by his hand.
Throughout the process, he did not even blink once.
"Gu Jinlai! Are you trying to fight to the death, intending to perish together with me? You have no chance!"
Clenching his teeth, Bai Yang bellowed, "Wearing steel armor hinders swiftness and agility. We should entangle him in combat, surround him, and wait for reinforcements from our sect. Once they arrive, he will have nowhere to go but down!"
"Combat entanglement?"
Gu Jinlai looked at the additional Qingguang emerging from within Qing Lian.
Although he had not yet mastered the Crossing the World movement technique, there were shortcuts to be had in cultivating the Cultivation Technique and Martial Arts.
By using Qingguang for a sudden enlightenment to optimize and perfect the Cultivation Technique, he could create a brand-new Cultivation Technique that would allow him to directly master it, thereby saving one or two months, or even three to four months of initial cultivation.
Swapping several years for a few months seemed like a loss.
But...
Sometimes, a few months is more precious than ten years.
"The movement technique I need isn't about swift twists and turns, not about fighting for a mere square inch of space, nor about changing thousands of forms, not even about being stealthy and silent. What I want is speed! Absolute speed! As long as I'm fast enough, I can attack or leave whenever I want! Who can stop me?"
Just like fighter jets and missiles!
If the jet's speed is so fast that no missile can catch up, what need is there for any maneuvering?
What need is there for an invisibility coating?
"I, Gu Jinlai, act upright and want only to be openly righteous!"
"Humming!"
A Qingguang infused into his consciousness.
In a flash, the mysteries of Crossing the World surged forth, along with associated information from aerodynamics, fluid mechanics, biomechanics, biology, planning, and statistics.
All the information he had ever encountered was now being continuously crushed and reassembled, eventually forming something that Gu Jinlai could easily comprehend.
When the Qingguang dissipated, a new orb of light floated out from his consciousness.
Unnamed Movement Technique: Entry-Level.
In terms of color, this movement technique was light purple, inferior to the Grand Sun Nine Refinement Visualization Method and the Great Sun Demon God Body Refining Technique.
However, purple was still purple.
Even at entry-level, it gave Gu Jinlai new insights into methods of exerting force, burst techniques, and charging modes.
At that moment, Bai Yang struck with his sword, lightning-fast, targeting the sword mark he had previously left, and as he attempted to counterattack, Bai Yang quickly retreated, escaping his attack range.
Just moments ago, he could only watch helplessly as Bai Yang retreated, but now...
Gu Jinlai took a deep breath, crouched slightly to adjust his center of gravity, his posture like a tiger ready to pounce and a dragon coiled up, his hands gripping his giant sword, his spirit, consciousness, and Qi seemingly merging into one.
"Step!"
Just as Bai Yang blinked, planning to strike again and completely pierce his war armor, Gu Jinlai suddenly moved. freёwebnoѵel.com
With that movement, as he surged forward, a force as potent as a middle-level demon burst from beneath his feet, like a fierce dragon emerging from the sea, coursing through his entire body.
Accompanying the burst of the inner core from the Hugging Pill Technique, the force and the burst of True Qi under his feet fused into one, all pouring into his giant sword, ultimately unleashing a never-before-seen gravitational potential energy strike!
"Whoosh!"
The sword blade frantically rubbed against the air, creating a sharp screeching sound.
At the tip of his blade, a visible ring of white Qi exploded outward.
The suddenly soaring speed caused the likewise sword-wielding Bai Yang, whose sword was less than 1.4 meters long, to change his expression.
An inch longer, an inch stronger.
Facing Gu Jinlai's sword imbued with the momentum of thunder, the Vice Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Grass Pavilion moved like a dragon, swiftly sidestepping. The heavy sword's blade, carrying a turbulent airflow, swept past him, shredding his clothes into fragments.
Yet, facing this imminent threat, Bai Yang's face showed no great fear; dodging Gu Jinlai's ferocious strike, he twisted his waist, using the rotation to thrust his own sword viciously towards a notch already sliced into the opponent's armor.
If this thrust had hit the notch, it would have definitely pierced through Gu Jinlai's war armor and continued through his body.
Unfortunately...
His speed was fast, but Gu Jinlai's was even faster.
Just as his sword was about to hit Gu Jinlai, the latter's figure sank, and his power pressed down, exploding in the next instant with a speed increase of fifty percent!
Movement technique—Crossing the World!
The fifty percent increase in speed exposed a fatal flaw in Bai Yang's decisive strike.
"Not good!"
The first thing the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Grass Pavilion tried to do was to pull his body back explosively.
But how could he be faster than Gu Jinlai at this moment?
Exploding forth, Gu Jinlai was like a bent bow suddenly snapping straight, accompanied by a light crackling of his muscles and bones. He roared like a T-Rex, carrying an unstoppable force, and heavily slammed into Bai Yang's chest.
At this moment, he was carrying two thousand catties on his back, and with the sudden burst, his speed exceeded two hundred kilometers per hour. The impact was like a piercing armor-penetrating bullet.
"Thud!"
A terrifyingly unstoppable force exploded at the point of impact, instantly smashing Bai Yang's chest bones, and even though he exerted all his strength to protect his body with True Qi, his chest completely caved in. Many shattered bones pierced through his heart, lungs, and viscera, spewing out mouthfuls of blood mingled with flesh from his mouth.
The force of inertia swept through his body, sending him flying more than ten meters, crashing heavily into the wall of his residence, creating web-like cracks upon impact, and then he fell powerlessly to the ground.
"I..."
Bai Yang struggled, trying to stand up immediately.
But with his ribcage shattered and his organs punctured, even though he was a Hugging Pill practitioner and had achieved leakproof body, it was as if all his strength had been drained.
The moment he moved, unprecedented pain accompanied by weakness had him collapsing weakly to the ground.
Blood continuously streamed down from the corners of his mouth.
"Did you ever consider what price you'd have to pay for offending me?"
Gu Jinlai strode forward, his fierce and violent aura billowing wildly, like a supreme fierce beast.
This scene, seen by Bai Yang, filled him with immense fear.
In his heart, there was endless regret.
He had long known that Gu Jinlai had once unleashed a massacre in Changjun City, slaying several Hugging Pill practitioners with his formidable strength. It was best not to provoke him without a Refining God taking action, yet he still couldn't resist swallowing ten sets of Treasure Armor, lured by over 600,000 taels of silver.
Now...
"Elder Gu, I...I realize my mistake. Please, spare my life..."
Bai Yang spoke with difficulty.
But before he could finish, what came in response was the heavy sword, which struck down like crushing an ant.
"No..."
"Boom!"
Bai Yang's head, along with his upper body and the ground beside him, were completely smashed into powder by the massive force carried by the thousand catty heavy sword.
The floor cracked.
Blood mist, mingling with dust, dispersed.
The bloody and terrifying scene delivered a strong visual shock, leaving the few surviving disciples of Bai Yang gasping for breath.
