Traveling across the globe for the first time

Chapter 869: The Power of the Dragon
Since Hong Kun drew a large amount of energy and blood to launch the palm technique, and forcibly dodged when the Nine Yin White Bone Claw grabbed him, his swordsmanship was greatly affected.

When masters compete, a single mistake can be fatal, not to mention that Hongkun made several mistakes in a row.

Zhang Haoran seized these flaws and launched a fierce attack, constantly expanding the flaws and breaking the opponent's defense.

Hongkun was somewhat overwhelmed and had a hard time resisting, and finally the opponent seized the opportunity.

"clank!"

The sharp sword light flashed across, and two sword marks deep to the bone immediately appeared on Hongkun's body. These were just scars left by the sword wind, and he was not directly hit. Otherwise, even if he had forged jade bones, he would not be able to withstand the blow of the Blood Shadow Sword.

Although the Blood Shadow Sword cannot increase attack power, its toughness and sharpness are in no way inferior to the artifact World-Destroying Sword.

Hongkun was suddenly shocked.

You know, the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms and the Nine Yin White Bone Claws are just auxiliary skills. They may cause him considerable damage, but they will not be fatal.

The swordsmanship contest is the key to determining victory or defeat. Both of them hold divine weapons in their hands, and no one can withstand the weapons' blows.

If you can't defend against the opponent's sword, you will really be defeated.

"Haha! Prince, you are done for. Prepare to die!"

Zhang Haoran wanted to take this opportunity to severely injure the opponent in one fell swoop, or at least make him unable to fight back.

Hongkun is indeed in a passive position now and has fallen into a disadvantage in all aspects. If he wants to turn the situation around, he will have to pay a huge price or use some trump cards.

Moreover, Hong Kun now dare not use too much energy and blood on swordsmanship. He must retain some energy and blood to avoid being hit by those dirty tricks again.

Zhang Haoran advanced vigorously, his sword as powerful as a rainbow, his fists and feet coming out at the same time, the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms combined with the Dragon Subduing Kick, for a time, Hong Kun was beaten back step by step. This kind of fierce fighting style, which hit the flesh and blood, made him feel indescribably refreshed.

His spirit and energy began to rise, and his sword spirit showed signs of transformation.

This made his sword-drawing speed faster and his sword skills more fierce.

However, Hongkun did not panic because of this. He continued to fight steadily. When the opponent's attack was too fierce, he would occasionally burst out his energy and blood, barely stabilizing the situation and avoiding complete defeat.

With a crisp sound!
The two swords collided with each other. Zhang Haoran stretched out his left hand and pushed forward again. Hong Kun also slapped out a palm habitually, while shifting his attention to the opponent's legs to avoid being hit by another crotch kick.

However, when Zhang Haoran had pushed out his left palm halfway, he suddenly changed his move and flicked his fingers.

With a whoosh, a black light flashed across, and with a puff, a bloody hole was pierced in Hongkun's left palm.

"Magical power at the snap of a finger!"

Hongkun withdrew his left hand like lightning, revealing a look of surprise.

Zhang Haoran smiled proudly and said, "Hehe! What are you looking at? You are not the only one who knows how to use the finger technique. My finger technique is not weak either."

A golden light flashed across Hong Kun's left hand, and the blood hole healed instantly. He said speechlessly, "What's the use of your little tricks? At our level, we compete with hard strength. Minor injuries can't affect the overall situation at all."

Zhang Haoran said confidently: "Who said it's useless? I feel very happy when I see you injured. What I used just now was the Breaking Needle, which can break all defenses.

You better be careful, I can hit you in the nick of time!"

He emphasized the word "vital points", meaning that the vital points do not necessarily refer to the head, but may also refer to some places that are inconvenient to describe.

As he spoke, a light flashed across his chest, indicating the activation of the image-retaining talisman.

Once a person's bottom line is crossed, there is no going back, which means that the underhanded tactics will be carried out to the end.

Hong Kun's face darkened, and he cursed in his heart: "What's wrong with the warriors in the world? They actually use these despicable methods openly, and they are not ashamed of it, but proud of it.

You should know that you are now an eighth-level powerful warrior. Don’t you have any dignity as a strong man?

Could it be that Li Zhu's oppression was too harsh, driving all the strong men in the world crazy?"

These geniuses of humankind now do things without any bottom line, which makes him have to be suspicious.

In order to force Hong Kun to be unable to use more energy and blood, Zhang Haoran used all means, and even used some dirty tricks on the opponent from time to time.

Unfortunately, although Hongkun’s fighting skills were not weak, he could not gain much advantage in terms of boxing and kicking. After all, he was an antique who had lived for tens of thousands of years, and he was taught by the emperor himself, and his various fighting skills were all advanced.

Zhang Haoran can only take advantage of the opponent now, but cannot cause fatal damage to the opponent.

But his goal has been achieved!
Attack with fists and feet, allowing Hongkun to devote some of his energy to deal with the attack, mainly to restrain the opponent's qi and blood.

Now, the energy and blood that Hong Kun can use in swordsmanship is not much stronger than Zhang Haoran's, and his advantage in swordsmanship can finally be brought into play.

Swish swish!
The Blood Shadow Sword slashed out three times in succession at the same angle and with the same force, with shock force, spiral force, domineering sword technique, etc., and the force techniques and sword technique burst out at the same time.

At this moment, Zhang Haoran increased the speed of his sword to the extreme, and slashed in front of Hong Kun almost instantly.

No matter how fast Hong Kun's reaction was, he could only barely block two swords. The long sword in his hand was knocked away, and his sword was immediately exposed. Zhang Haoran's eyes lit up, and the third sword slashed towards the opponent's head as fast as thunder.

Hongkun leaned back instinctively to avoid the vital parts.

After Zhang Haoran increased his sword speed to the extreme, the opponent could only rely on his warrior's fighting instinct to respond.

However, he was unable to completely avoid the sword.

Poof!
The Blood Shadow Sword cut a hideous sword mark on the opponent's chest. The power of qi and blood, shock force, spiral force, immortal sword intent, and the power of sword laws were poured into Hong Kun's body through the long sword, immediately breaking his internal organs and spurting blood.

Hong Kun had no time to care about the injuries in his body. He used the force of the sword to create a little distance, then desperately burst out his energy and blood, barely blocking the subsequent attack.

Only then did he begin to adjust his state. A large amount of immortal matter surged out, and a dazzling light emanated from Jin's body. The injuries in his internal organs were recovering rapidly.

However, the immortal sword intent attached to the wound prevented it from healing, and golden blood gushed out.

Even if he is a superstar, if he doesn't deal with it quickly, he will bleed to death sooner or later.

Hong Kun had seen this method before, so he naturally had a way to deal with it. He released his qi and blood, and shook off all the flesh and blood near the wound.

The next moment, immortal matter gushed out and the wound began to heal.

However, it was during this short delay that Zhang Haoran's sword power was fully unleashed. The continuous attacks left Hong Kun with no choice but to defend himself. He had no power to fight back and was completely at a disadvantage.

Now he could only counter the moves and passively defend. These were not the most serious. What really made Hong Kun suffer was that the sword also cut off his martial arts realm!
The purpose of Zhang Haoran's trip was to improve his sword soul. At this time, he had already pushed the fifth-level peak sword soul to the extreme, and the effect of swordsmanship that could cut the heart was brought into play to the maximum extent.

There were many sword marks on Hongkun's body before, but they were all caused by the sword wind, not by being cut by the long sword.

At this moment, he truly felt the pain of his martial arts level declining.

The fighting techniques he had practiced for many years suddenly began to become somewhat unfamiliar, and this feeling drove him crazy.

Hearing and seeing is one thing, but experiencing it yourself is another.

"No! The sword technique of Slashing the Heart is too terrifying! I must not be hit by the long sword again.

Otherwise, tens of thousands of years of hard training will be wasted. Without strength, all plans will fail. If you are hit by a few more swords, your life may be in danger. King Gen is the best example. "

Hongkun finally realized the danger and adjusted his mentality.

Face doesn’t matter anymore!
He would rather be hit by a few palms and kicks than be hit by the sword.

Even a kick in the crotch is better than having your heart cut by a sword.

Faced with the choice between face and life, he decisively chose the latter.

You can get your face back if you lose it, but if you lose your life, then everything is over.

Hong Kun began to adjust the output of Qi and blood, using most of it on swordsmanship, leaving only a small amount of Qi and blood to prepare to deal with the opponent's killing moves.

Hongkun's style changed.

Zhang Haoran immediately felt a surge of pressure, and that powerful recoil of qi and blood appeared again.

The spirit and energy that had begun to rise were knocked back down again, and his sword skills were also restricted and could no longer be used as he wished.

Zhang Haoran was immediately furious.

"Damn it! How dare you look down on my Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms? Today I'll teach you a lesson."

He began to gather energy and blood in his left hand, preparing to give the opponent a hard blow.

Hong Kun used most of his energy and blood on swordsmanship. Although he was no longer passive in the sword fight, he could not cope with the collision of fists and feet.

Zhang Haoran once again slapped out the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. Hong Kun only symbolically resisted for a moment, and then allowed his palm power to break through his defense. His body was shining with golden light, and it was obvious that he was prepared to withstand this palm.

In Hongkun's opinion, the power of this palm was very ordinary. Even if he was hit, it would not be a big deal. At most, he would suffer some internal injuries and would recover quickly.

But is Zhang Haoran's Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms so easy to resist?
With a dull thud, the palm hit the chest solidly.

Waves of palm power penetrated into the body, constantly destroying the opponent's internal organs. Hongkun was prepared for this. A large amount of immortal matter surged out to repair the damaged organs.

However, all this was just the beginning. The next moment, Zhang Haoran's left hand was like a phantom, bombarding the opponent's chest at an unimaginable speed.

"Dragon fights in the wild!"

This is a combo. Once the first palm strikes a solid blow, subsequent attacks will follow, unstoppable and unavoidable.

Boom boom boom!
One powerful attack after another hit the opponent's chest, causing Hongkun to spit blood.

When he was hit by the second palm, he knew that something was wrong, because the explosive power of the second palm was 30% higher than that of the first palm, and the power of the third palm was increased even more.

If this continues, his recovery ability will soon not be able to keep up with the speed of injury, and then he will be in trouble.

"I was careless. I didn't expect Sword Master's palm technique to be so exquisite."

But when Hongkun reacted at this time, it was too late. Once the combo was launched, it would not stop.

When Zhang Haoran's second palm hit the opponent, it was as if he had entered automatic attack mode. The speed of his palms was incredibly fast, as if he was guided by some kind of law. Each palm was faster and stronger than the last.

And every palm strike has the attribute of being a sure hit.

In fact, it is true that Dragon Fights in the Wild is a combo. Once it is activated, there is no need for him to control it anymore. He just needs to ensure that his qi and blood are not interrupted.

Because Zhang Haoran didn't pay much attention to his palm techniques before, the level of his Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms was too low, so it looked a bit weak.

But don't forget, this is a technique passed down from the human race's golden list, modified by true human race masters. Judging from its grade alone, it may not be lower than the grade of the Immortal Body. It is a technique with a low starting point and a high upper limit, which is very suitable for popularization.

When its true power is unleashed, it is still quite terrifying.

After slapping Hong Kun's chest seventeen times in a row, Zhang Haoran suddenly felt that all the energy and blood in his body were gathering towards his palms, and his mental strength was also drained away.

This suddenly frightened him, and he immediately used the system and the Origin Dao to replenish his blood and mental strength. However, no matter how fast he replenished, it would be drawn away immediately.

However, after feeling his own condition, Zhang Haoran immediately felt relieved, because the process of extracting qi, blood and mental strength can be interrupted.

After all, this is a killing move. The power of the palm technique will be determined by how much blood and mental strength it can provide. Moreover, it is not a forced extraction like the self-mutilation secret technique. As long as he is willing, he can interrupt it at any time.

Of course he would not interrupt. This was the ultimate killing move, so the more powerful it was, the better.

His own Qi and blood were drained out, and it seemed very dangerous. He couldn't even continue his sword skills. However, Hong Kun was in a worse situation than him. He was the one who was beaten, and he was still in a stiff state.
The previous seventeen palms had penetrated into the opponent's body's Qi and blood, completely sealing off all his ability to resist. He could only watch helplessly as he condensed his Qi and blood and launched the final attack.

Now Hongkun's defense has been broken, his chest is covered in blood and flesh, and no one knows how many bones are broken. His sternum stained with golden blood is sticking out of his body and exposed to the air.

"Hoar!"

With the last palm strike, a golden dragon roared and rushed out, passing through Hongkun's body, leaving a large transparent hole in front and back.

Zhang Haoran finally stopped the automatic attack mode. He immediately waved his hand and the blood, flesh and bone fragments all over the sky were collected. What surprised him was that after being hit by so many palms and a big hole blasted by the golden dragon, the opponent's heart was not broken.
As a result, he obtained a complete heart of a top eight warrior.

Zhang Haoran was very curious as to why this heart could be preserved intact. He felt it carefully and found that there was an extremely powerful sword energy swirling inside the heart.

Before that, Hong Kun had spat out sword energy from his mouth and broke his right leg.

I thought it was a one-shot killing move, but I didn't expect the other party to hold back.

"Damn it! There is still so much sword energy in my heart. It seems like this old guy is planning to trick me again!"
