Chapter 103: Warrior's Qi and Blood
The reason why Qi Xuansu dared to "boast" was not because of the arrogance of a poor man who suddenly became rich, but because he was sure of it. The key was that the scholar was a Taoist priest.
If the Taoist priest continued to hide in the dark as before, Qi Xuansu would naturally have no way to deal with him. But now that he had attacked the base of the Lingshan Witch Cult, the Taoist priest had nowhere to hide. As long as Qi Xuansu could get close to him, he would have a chance to kill him.
This also had to mention the restraint relationship between Taoist priests and warriors. The blood of warriors was the most real and could restrain false spells. Therefore, once the Taoist priests with weak physiques were approached by warriors and the warriors used blood to break the spells, they would easily die at the hands of warriors who were good at close combat. On the contrary, after the Taoist priests pulled away from the warriors, they could not touch the Taoist priests themselves. Even if they could break one or two spells with blood, they would always be in a passive situation of being beaten. If they defended for a long time, they would lose and would be killed by the Taoist priests sooner or later.
After Qi Xuansu got the "Xuanyu", he did have some of the magical powers of a warrior. Not only did he have flesh and blood, but his qi and blood also had the effect of breaking the law. However, he could not condense the acupoints, body and spirit like a warrior, so he was not completely equivalent to a warrior. However, it was enough to deal with a Taoist priest in the return to the true stage by surprise.
Qi Xuansu's figure was like a swimming fish, swimming among the crowd, using the crowd who were fighting to cover his figure.
Soon, he found the scholar.
After the scholar had to emerge from the dark, his fighting method was not much different from Lingquanzi. He summoned a team of soldiers with talismans to protect him. These soldiers were wearing armor and holding eighteen kinds of weapons. They were very different from the black-clothed men, and they looked a bit like actors on the stage.
This is a unique "talisman soldier" method of the Taoist priest. The power depends on the carrier. The low-grade talisman soldiers use paper people as carriers, and the high-grade ones use armor pills as carriers, which is what people call "scattering beans to make soldiers".
His own magic is very simple, just pinching and grabbing.
However, it should not be underestimated. Prince Chengjiu suffered a great loss and his boat was crushed by the scholar. In addition, the scholar also used this method to take Lin Zhenyuan away from the air.
The most magical thing about this method is that it can penetrate all obstacles and attack the inside directly.
In other words, the scholar can penetrate armor, clothing, protective qi, flesh and skin, and directly crush the opponent's internal organs.
This method is called "Star Picking Hand". When it was first created, it was similar to the use of empty hands. But later, it was gradually developed for killing, which greatly violated the original intention of creating this method.
With the cultivation of the scholar in the return to the true stage, within ten feet, it is his "Star Picking" range.
The scholar kept reaching out, and more than a dozen men in black and Qingluan Guards died in the hands of the scholar.
However, this method is not omnipotent. For example, if you encounter a warrior, even if you barely penetrate the warrior's blood and qi, it is difficult to crush the warrior's internal organs. After all, the internal organs are where the blood and qi gather, and they are highly resistant to various spells. Therefore, the scholar has attacked Wang Zicheng several times, but he has never been able to hurt Wang Zicheng's life.
The black-clothed man and the Qingluan Guard also noticed something was wrong. They no longer approached him by force, but kept their distance and fired muskets continuously, hitting the soldiers summoned by the scholar, making a bang. It was a pity that the black-clothed man's musket bullets did not have talismans engraved on them, and did not have the effect of breaking spells, so it was difficult to achieve success.
Qi Xuansu approached the scholar silently, and when he was still ten feet away, he suddenly jumped out.
With a "whoosh", two armored soldiers guarding the scholar shot crossbow arrows at Qi Xuansu.
Qi Xuansu directly cut off two crossbow arrows.
The scholar took this opportunity to stretch out his hand and pinch Qi Xuansu.
Qi Xuansu felt a pain in his heart, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
However, to the scholar's surprise, he failed to crush Qi Xuansu's heart. Not only because of the obstruction of Qi Xuansu's blood and qi in his body, but also because Qi Xuansu's heart was much tougher than that of ordinary people.
When Qi Xuansu was still in the Kunlun stage, his body was transformed by the Qingping Society and was comparable to that of a warrior in the Yuxu stage. After Qi Xuansu was changed by "Xuanyu" for the second time, he experienced a complete transformation and entered the Yuxu stage. His body was catching up with that of a warrior in the Guizhen stage. It was really a foolish dream for the scholar to crush Qi Xuansu's heart.
Qi Xuansu took this opportunity to get close to the scholar and stabbed with a simple sword.
The scholar's figure immediately became fragmented, like a piece of fine porcelain that was broken, and the fragments flew everywhere.
Then a cloud of smoke condensed into the figure of the scholar not far away. Not only was it intact, but it also opened a distance of about ten feet from Qi Xuansu.
At the same time, many Fu soldiers attacked Qi Xuansu with various weapons, intending to delay Qi Xuansu's steps.
Taking this opportunity, the scholar began to prepare magic.
Although ordinary fire guns could hardly hurt these Fu soldiers, Qi Xuansu's "Qingyuan" was a spiritual object, and with Qi Xuansu's true qi and blood, it could easily break the armor of these warriors.
Qi Xuansu's swordsmanship was not as good as Zhang Yuelu's, but it was enough to deal with these dull Fu soldiers. Qi Xuansu waved his sword forward, and in a blink of an eye, several Fu soldiers were beaten back to their original form, turning into broken paper figures falling to the ground, and their spiritual energy dissipated.
However, the scholar had already prepared his own magic. He shook his body and turned one into eight, all of which were transformed by his thoughts, and then these eight clones cast their own spells. Either using fire, or using wind, or attracting thunder, or freezing ice, or summoning ghosts to cast spells, or creating illusions.
At this moment, the scholar used all he had learned in his life, and eight completely different spells attacked Qi Xuansu at the same time.
Qi Xuansu's response was even simpler, he just shouted loudly.
The rolling blood and qi rushed out of Qi Xuansu's body, turning into white mist visible to the naked eye, like boiling steam, comparable to the blood and qi of a warrior in the return to the true stage. However, it is still a distance away from the blood and qi of a celestial warrior. It is said that the blood and qi of a celestial warrior can turn into blood color, like a blood cloud.
This is actually a magical power of a warrior. Its skills are not complicated. The key is to control the blood and qi in the body and make it flow out of the body with a whistle.
After Qi Xuansu was reborn, he felt that his whole body's spirit, blood and qi were all under his control. He could send out as he wished and collect as he wished. Everything depended on his mind. He actually learned this magical power without a teacher.
The reason why many orthodox warriors cannot practice in a short time is that Qi Xuansu can directly and freely control the blood and qi in his body, while many warriors cannot.
All the spells of the scholar dissipated when they touched this blood and qi.
The scholar never thought that Qi Xuansu would have such blood and energy, otherwise he would not be so arrogant and would only try his best to distance the two of them at the first time.
However, at this time, it was too late to distance himself.
Qi Xuansu took advantage of this opportunity, approached and stabbed the scholar in the chest with a sword.
In an instant, the scholar was split into two. One was a real scholar, who was pierced in the chest, his eyes were dull, and he stood in place. The other scholar's figure was slightly illusory, without any injuries, and flew into the air.
After the Taoist priest entered the Yin Shen realm, his soul could leave his body and did not need to rely on external objects. After the soul left the body, it was indeed extremely fragile, but it also truly achieved "lightness".
After the scholar's Yin Shen left his body, he directly sacrificed a string of jade beads.
The beads exploded, and the divine power rolled out, turning into a huge palm, grabbing Qi Xuansu's head.
The essence of magic is to make the fake real, and gradually change from illusion to reality. The higher the level of the alchemist, the more real the magic is, and the less it is affected by qi and blood.
In addition, there is a shortcut, which is to use magic directly by borrowing divine power.
This huge palm not only gave birth to flesh and blood, but also had clearly visible palm lines, which were extremely real, giving people an illusion that this was not an illusory magic, but a real human hand.
Such magic can no longer be dispersed by Qi Xuansu's shout.
Qi Xuansu raised his true qi and blood, and struck upward with his sword.
The two collided, and Qi Xuansu went straight through the palm.
A blood hole was broken in the palm of the hand.
However, the palm did not collapse, but took advantage of the situation to grab Qi Xuansu in the palm.
In an instant, Qi Xuansu could only move his arms and the area above his chest, and his body below his chest was tightly held and could not move.
The scholar's Yin Shen made a five-fingered fist.
The hand holding Qi Xuansu tightened, wanting to crush Qi Xuansu to death.
If it was the previous Qi Xuansu, half of his body would have turned into meat paste, but Qi Xuansu, who had undergone a complete transformation, had a tough physique comparable to that of a martial artist. Therefore, Qi Xuansu's bones and physique only crackled, but he was far from dead, and he was not even seriously injured.
Qi Xuansu was not in a hurry to break free from the restraint of this giant hand, but used the "Sword Controlling Technique" to throw the "Qingyuan" in his hand.
"Qingyuan" flashed and pierced directly through the head of the scholar's body.
The physique of the alchemist was originally fragile, and there was a world of difference compared to the physique of the martial artist. At this time, the scholar's body was hit hard one after another, and he was dead immediately.
Without the support of the body, the soul that had left the body was like water without a source and a tree without roots. The scholar's Yin spirit immediately became unstable and seemed to dissipate at any time.
The scholar knew that he would not be able to escape today, so he gritted his teeth, and his Yin spirit turned into a long rainbow and rushed towards Qi Xuansu, wanting to die with Qi Xuansu.
Qi Xuansu shouted again, and the blood and qi in his body moved.
The rolling waves of qi with rich blood rushed out.
The black-clothed men and Qingluan guards around him were fine, they just felt their ears buzzing, their blood and qi were floating, and at most they were unstable.
But the scholar's soul had no body to protect him. At such a close distance, facing this shout, it was like catkins in the wind, directly torn into countless pieces, and his soul was scattered.
