Chapter 352 - Can't Hold It
Ever since the arrival of the evil sect.
In the past few hundred years, the evil beings had always been able to use all kinds of methods, either to bewitch people into joining the evil sect, or to secretly assassinate powerful people, or to parasitize the bodies of martial artists.
The experience of countless blood and tears made humans deeply wary.
So.
When Liu Ping used the Qilin Slash, as he could not control the move, the Fire Qilin flew towards the Zhu Rong statue in the middle of the ruined temple.
Something unexpected happened and the statue could not help but move.
But this time —
In the main hall, Sect Leader Li, Sect Leader Zhao and the five elders of the two sects disappeared.
They surrounded the Zhu Rong statue, drew their weapons, and shouted in unison:
"Kill!"
Under the night sky.
The entire temple exploded, the flames and ice turned into streaks of dancing light and shadow, scattering in the rain like a meteor shower.
Liu Ping retreated with the wind, squinting his eyes.
He saw that the huge monster was surrounded by the two sect leaders and the five elders and was caught off guard.
Very good.
If this continued, the evil being would definitely die.
The only thing to worry about was —
Why would it wait here for the rabbit to appear?
Liu Ping turned his head and swept his gaze towards the forest, cliffs, streams, and stone slopes in the dark.
Suddenly.
In a bamboo forest, densely packed words quietly floated out:
[Rotten Bones Lurker]
[Rotten Bones Lurker]
[...]
It turned out that there was an ambush. Once the people in the temple were defeated, the bamboo forest outside would launch a surprise attack and annihilate everyone.
Liu Ping's body stretched out, and all the flames on the long saber in his hand were completely extinguished.
The long saber returned to its sheath.
He blended into the night rain and silently slid towards the bamboo forest with the wind.
Dong!
He landed in front of the bamboo forest, pulled out the long saber and shook it gently.
A cluster of flames jumped out from the tip of the saber.
"Can you help to cover it? I want to preserve my strength as much as possible, I don't want others to know the strength of a fifteen-year-old kid. After all, I just entered the sect. "
Liu Ping said.
The flame flickered for a moment.
Boom —
In the distance.
There was a violent explosion in the temple, and the flames rushed into the sky, reflecting the rain in the night sky.
The scene suddenly became extremely chaotic. The disciples couldn't even take care of themselves. Those with higher seniorities rushed to surround the temple, ready to participate in the attack at any time.
The surging flames continued to burst and sparkle, flickering and flickering, reflecting the ferocious figure of the monster.
The experts moved back and forth, releasing killer moves from time to time.
The evil being roared and wanted to dive into the darkness again, but it no longer had the chance.
The crowd surrounded the temple, holding torches high.
Everyone's attention was focused on the evil creature, so no one noticed Liu Ping's situation.
"Well done." Liu Ping praised. He sheathed his blade and walked into the bamboo forest.
The wind was long and the rain was heavy.
The mountains and forests were like waves.
As Liu Ping walked in the bamboo forest, he said, "Come on, since you want to play an ambush, let's have a good one. How about that?"
A rustling sound came along with the wind.
The evil beings began to move.
Liu Ping smiled and disappeared into the dense forest in a flash, disappearing under the cover of the night.
The evil beings were agitated and scattered in all directions, searching for traces of Liu Ping.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths.
— — -a few dozen breaths later.
Liu Ping stood deep inside the bamboo forest, the blade in his hand pierced through the head of an evil being.
With a shake of the blade, the evil being's head instantly exploded.
Two lines of burning text quickly appeared:
[The Flames of Destruction Quest is progressing smoothly]
[The evil being's death will be burned by the flames and turned into the great power of the Law of Fire]
Liu Ping skimmed through it and sighed:
"It's rare to meet an opponent that I can fight normally, this feeling is really good"
Below his feet.
All the monsters had their heads cut off and collapsed on the ground, their headless corpses dripping with blood.
The flame hovered at the tip of the blade, like a candle in the night, as if it was a pair of eyes staring at Liu Ping.
"Burn the corpses, don't let anyone discover them, can you do that?" Liu Ping ordered.
The flame flickered.
"Alright, thank you for your hard work."
Liu Ping sheathed his blade, turned around and walked out of the bamboo forest.
Behind him, a flaming red lotus without any fluctuations of power appeared from the ground, enveloping all the monsters and slowly melting them.
As if nothing had happened.
At the same time.
In front of the temple.
The evil being that pretended to be Zhu Rong's statue fell to the ground.
Sect master Li held his blade and cut off the monster's head, carefully observing it: "This is a very rare evil being, it had killed many of our people before."
"Hahaha! I heard that this thing is good at mimicry, it's very rare, one killed is one less, how lucky! How lucky! "Sect master Zhao leaned on a metal rod and laughed.
Everyone was more or less injured, so they rested on the spot and checked their manpower.
"Liu Ping is gone!"
Zhang Pinghe suddenly shouted.
Sect master Li's expression froze, suddenly stood up, about to speak, but a voice came from the rain:
"Who said I'm gone?"
Liu Ping.
He limped in front of everyone and smiled bitterly: "Master, I really didn't control that move, please punish me"
Everyone went silent, then suddenly laughed at the same time.
Sect master Zhao went forward and patted him on the shoulder, smiling: "No one will punish you, it's lucky that you took the risk this time and broke through the evil being's hiding place, otherwise we would all end up in a bad situation."
Sect master Li glanced at him, seeing that there were no injuries on his body, he said unhappily: "For the rest of the journey, practice the Kirin Slash a hundred times a day for me."
"Ah! That's too much, Master! "Liu Ping said bitterly.
"You're lucky this time, if you don't pay attention next time and hurt your own people, I'll see how you're going to explain. A hundred times — do you remember?"
"... Yes."
Although the temple had been destroyed, there was still more than half of the place to shelter from the rain.
Everyone stopped talking about sparring, hurriedly starting a fire to cook, after eating, they arranged for people to patrol and take turns to rest.
The night was silent.
As soon as the sky brightened, the two sect masters immediately gave the order to set off.
Everyone quickly packed up, got on their horses, and galloped in the direction of the capital.
After they left.
Another four hours passed.
A giant python poked its head out from under the temple, flicking its tongue and looking around.
"The ambush failed."
"... Strange, we arranged for a team to be in charge of the ambush, why are there no traces of them fighting?"
The giant python slithered towards the bamboo forest.
Suddenly, it found a footprint, but in the next moment —
That footprint seemed to have been melted by fire, instantly sinking in, and its original appearance could not be seen.
The giant python was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice: "Darned laws."
It turned its body and quickly retreated into the temple, burrowing into the ground and disappearing.
...
A few days later.
The capital.
The eldest disciple of the Demon Mountain Sect, Zhang Pinghe, brought Liu Ping along to meet the core disciples of the other sects.
"Nice to meet you, I'm Zhang Pinghe."
"This is —"
"I'm the disciple of the Myriad Spirit Sect, Liu Ping."
"Oh, very good, I've long heard of the Demon Mountain Sect's martial arts, as well as the Myriad Spirit Sect's saber techniques. Why don't we spar?"
"Haha, come, spar with me, Zhang Pinghe, don't spar with Junior Brother Liu."
"Why is that?"
"He just joined the sect not long ago, so he can't control his moves. A few days ago, he summoned the Fire Qilin with one move and burned the evil creature lurking in the temple out. If not for Master saving me, I would have been burned to death on the spot."
"You really can't control your moves?" someone asked.
"I'm ashamed, ashamed, I often use too many moves. Master ordered me to practice my saber techniques to prevent more casualties."
Liu Ping was afraid that no one would believe him, so he drew his saber — —
Boom!!!
The raging flames exploded, almost burning all the tables and chairs in the surroundings.
"Stop — — stop now!"
Everyone said.
Liu Ping sheathed his saber.
In a split second, all the strange phenomena disappeared.
Only then did everyone heave a sigh of relief. At the same time, they believed him.
— — with such talent, who the hell would want to fight with him?
They wouldn't even know how they died, how unjust!
Someone said:
"Oh — — I know you, I heard that your friend was parasitized by a monster, and you killed him with one move."
Another Voiced in "Seems like you were too emotional at the time, plus you couldn't control your moves — — that's understandable."
A Third voice came "Hah, practice well, your sect's saber techniques are too fierce, if you can't control your moves, you can't just spar with others."
"Yes, I'll remember that." Liu Ping sincerely clasped his hands towards everyone.
"Alright, enough chit-chat, Zhang Pinghe, spar with me."
"Why not?"
Everyone made way for the two of them.
Liu Ping leisurely sat on the side, chewing on his candy as he narrowed his eyes to watch the battle.
